Pendants of Hope
A Dragon Tales Fanfiction
Chapter 1
The Three Pendants
Description: Max (4), Emmy (6), and Enrique (6), each have been to Dragon Land more times ever since they have each started making their story called "Dragon Tales", which was inspired by going into the story of how Quetzal got his Magic Pop-Up Book from Sage. One day, they go to Dragon Land one day and play with a Dragon Disk with their dragon friends Ord, Cassie, Zak and Wheezie. They play on the ground and in the air while flying. But, Quetzal sees them in the air and tells them that they need to turn around and head back to The School in the Sky. They ask why and find out that a giant fog cloud is coming. Before they could leave, each of them except Quetzal gets lost in the fog. After flying to get out of the fog, they all end up in a cave. Ord gets scared, but the crystals everywhere make it bright enough for him. At the end of the cave, they find 3 giant crystals, each in a different color and pushed into the ground. One was red, one was blue, and one was green. Max tries to pull up the blue one, but he was unable. Everyone tried to pull them each out of the ground. Enrique was able to pull out the green one. Emmy had an urge to pull out the blue one, so she did and got it out. Max took a deep breath and pulled out the red crystal. The crystals changed into pendants of the color of their crystal. Each of the three activated the pendants, but it changed them. Max became the younger Dan Kuso (the illusionary one) with red wings, a red mini gauntlet on his right arm, and a baby red dragon's head in place of his left hand. Emmy was a water drop with a face, legs, and arms. Enrique was a little tree stump with a face and arms and legs. The dragons were surprised to see them like that, so they each go to Quetzal and tell him what happened. Quetzal tells the kids what their new forms are, revealing their destiny. He also said that in order to return to normal, they need to focus and they will quickly revert back to normal. So they did what he said, reverted, and went home to hide the pendants somewhere where they would find them in the future, when they would be truly destined. 8 years later, Max is hanging out with his new friends at his middle school while Emmy and Enrique hang out with their friends at their high school. A weekend after an incident at the skate park because of a giant monster, Emmy goes out to do some errands and then gets captured by robbers, making Max want to save her. Then, a vision tells him to get the pendants he got years ago. So he gets them and uses his red one again, but sees that he does a new transformation. He becomes Dan Kuso in his NV outfit, but slightly altered with Neo Dragonoid's wings, Dan's gauntlet from NV on the same arm as before, his pendant in the middle of his chest, and Helix's Dragonoid's head on the same hand as before. He finds out that the voice he heard was Dragonoid, his pendant's protector. He tells him why he looks different and tells him to rescue his sister from the robbers at the bank. He takes the other pendants with him and noticed that Enrique saw him fly out. He knew Max's identity when he saw him and he gets his pendant, causing him to activate it and transform and go with Max in that form. At the bank, robbers were everywhere, so they got in and took out each of the robbers in there, but as more came, Max and Enrique went for Emmy, who recognized them easily and was given the blue pendant she got years ago. Her transformed form made her powerful to take out the robbers. In the end, the three of them were strong enough to take out all the robbers. Then, the robber leader was revealed to be a monster, which was easily taken out by Max, allowing the captives to be protected and get out safely. But Emmy remains there to make her parents know that she is safe. After Emmy returns home, she sees Max and Enrique and tells them that the three of them have begun an adventure. Dragonoid agrees with her, but tells them that Max is the most destined of the 3 of them. Now the three of them have to wonder why in their adventure.
Now, we will introduce the characters of the story at this point.
Max: The main hero of the story. He is the most destined between him, Emmy, and Enrique with the pendants. Because of that, he is most of the time the leader of the team. Dragonoid tells him to use the pendants for their powers again in order to bring peace to his world. He wonders why he is destined the most in the first parts of this story. Max is the most powerful member of the team. He has the Red Pendant and has the most classes.
Dragonoid: The beast protector of the Red Pendant and the only talking beast protector. He is also the only beast protector to be with a human protector while in their transformed form and appears with him. He leads the protectors and tells our heroes about their destiny and what they will face with their new powers. He also told Max about what he should do when robbers capture Emmy when she gets to the bank. He is Max's partner.
Dan Kuso: Max's protector of the pendant form. He is the main protagonist and faces against The Black Thorn, an evil person who wishes to destroy the pendants. He is literally a Dragon Human. The Darkness, a dark clone of him, also haunts him during his adventure. He has an ability to change his element type. And like his human form, he is mostly the leader of the team. He is the ace of the air.
Emmy: Max's sister. She is the sometimes leader of the team in both forms. She has the blue pendant.
Aquamentus: The beast protector of the blue pendant. He's a sea serpent.
Aqua Lady: Emmy's transformed form. She is sometimes the leader of the team. She is the ace of the water.
Enrique: Emmy's best human friend and the oldest member of the team. He is the owner of the green pendant.
Trunkar: The beast protector of the green pendant. He's a forest armor elephant.
Wood Shinobi: Enrique's transformed form and is the fastest of the team. He is the ace of the ground.
Cassie: A pink dragon that is Emmy's best friend.
Ord: A blue dragon that is Max's best dragon friend.
Zak and Wheezie: A two headed dragon (Zak is green; Wheezie is purple) that are brother and sister and friends with our heroes.
Quetzal: An elder yellow dragon that knows the destiny of Max, Emmy, and Enrique.
Tech: One of Max's best human friends and one of the first humans to find out Max protects the red pendant.
Phoen: One of Max's best human friends and the other person to first find out Max protects the red pendant.
The Darkness/Dark Dan: An evil clone of Dan Kuso who appears when the new moon appears while he faces criminals one night. He appears in many chapters and revealed near the end of this story to work for The Black Thorn.
The Black Thorn: The main villain. He is the one our heroes are destined to go against. He created the monsters invading Earth. The Darkness is his primary servant in secret.
That's all of the important characters. Now, let's begin.
Max's and Emmy's House
Max, Emmy, and Enrique were drawing pictures at the table for their story "Dragon Tales" after they experienced Quetzal's Fabled Quest for the Magic Pop-Up Book.
Max was drawing a picture of Ord learning to overcome his fear of the darkness.
Emmy was drawing a picture of Cassie learning how to stand up to a bully.
And Enrique was drawing a picture of Zak and Wheezie trying to not be embarrassed by their sheds.
"Man, we had a lot of adventures in Dragon Land in the past. Our story will probably be very long, but exciting!", said Max.
"Si Max. Some adventures you had were without me. Besides, this is about all of the adventures.", said Enrique.
"Well, if we have more adventures, the story will be longer.", said Emmy.
"It's an expanding story!", said Enrique.
"Let's expand it more by going to Dragon Land!", said Max.
The other 2 agreed, so they went to the Dragon scale.
"I wish, I wish, with all my heart, to fly with dragons, in a land apart.", the 3 said while holding the scale.
Instantly, they were transported to Dragon Land.
Dragon Land
Ord, Cassie, Zak and Wheezie were playing Dragon Disk, when they saw Max, Emmy, and Enrique appear.
"Max! Emmy! Enrique!", said Ord as he ran up to give them a hug and put them down after a few seconds.
"Want to play Dragon Disk with us?", Cassie asked them.
They all agreed and they played with the Dragon Disk.
Each of them threw the disk to each other back and forth for a while.
Then, they all looked up at the sky.
After looking at the sky, Max got onto Ord, Emmy onto Cassie and Enrique onto Zak and Wheezie and started to fly.
Then, when they were high enough, they started to throw the Dragon Disk for the fun of the game.
They flew around Dragon Land as they played.
After a while, a yellow dragon named saw them in the air.
He flew up to them in a concerned look.
The gang noticed Quetzal and each said hello to him.
"Hola ninos!", said Quetzal.
"Say, why did you come up here in the sky with us?", Cassie asked.
"I wanted to warn you of a fog coming this way. You better get down to the ground and stay there until the fog goes away.", said Quetzal.
"A fog?", they all asked.
"Yes. And it will not go away until later today.", said Quetzal.
He went back to The School in The Sky.
"What should we do?", Zak asked.
"We should fly down.", said Cassie.
Everyone agreed and flew down, only to see fog.
"Where's the ground?", asked Ord.
Max, Emmy, and Enrique noticed that the dragons were asking where the ground was, but they saw it.
"It's right there!", said Emmy.
The dragons looked around, but did not see the ground.
"If you see it and we don't, maybe you should lead us.", said Cassie.
So Max, Emmy, and Enrique led the dragons to the ground, but something different was with the ground.
"Is that … a cave?", Ord asked when he saw a hole.
"It looks like it.", said Enrique.
"We'll go in and see what's inside, then turn back.", said Emmy.
Everyone went into the cave, helping Ord every step of the way.
Inside the Cave
When the gang entered the cave, it was so bright that there was no need for the crystals.
"What is this cave?", Max asked.
"This isn't Crystal Cave.", said Emmy.
They all walked through the cave until they reached 3 giant crystals deep in the ground.
One was red.
One was blue.
And one was green.
"What are those crystals?", Cassie asked.
"I don't know, but I want the blue one!", said Max.
"I guess I'll get the red one!", said Emmy.
"And I'm left with the green one!", said Enrique.
The three of them walked up to the giant crystals.
Max tried to pull out the blue one, but he could not pull it out even a little.
Emmy also had some trouble pulling out the red one since it did not come out one bit.
Enrique, however, was able to pull out the green one.
The dragons gasped at the crystal Enrique pulled out.
"I can't believe that crystal is big, but light enough for Enrique to pick up.", said Zak.
"LOVVVVE IT!", said Wheezie.
Ord and Cassie went to help Max and Emmy pull out theirs, but a barrier did not allow them to and blocked them off.
Max and Emmy saw the barrier.
Enrique walked outside of the barrier and saw that Emmy and Max were having trouble pulling out the crystals.
"Emmy, I'll take out the red one!", said Max.
"OK Max.", said Emmy.
Emmy took out the blue one like she was about to throw it.
Max took a deep breath and pulled out the red crystal.
Then he and Emmy walked outside of the barrier.
"Woah! These crystals are amazing!", said Max.
"But what are they?", Enrique asked.
"A bigger question is how come only we could pull them out.", said Emmy.
The crystals started to flash their color and change form.
They shrunk into 3 pendants, each the color of the crystal they originally were.
"What are these pendants?", Max asked.
Then, he had a vision to hold them up.
"Let's try holding them up!", said Max.
"You're sure about this Max?", Enrique asked.
"Yep.", said Max.
So the three of them held up their pendants.
They each noticed a small button on the back of the pendants.
They tried lifting them again while pushing the button on the back of the pendant.
They each started to flash and transform Max, Emmy, and Enrique.
After the transformation, Max, Emmy, and Enrique were each different figures.
Their voices have also changed.
Max was Illusionary Dan, but with wings, a red mini gauntlet on his right arm, and a red baby dragon's head instead of his left arm's hand.
Emmy was a water drop with a face, arms, and legs.
Enrique was a little tree stump with arms and legs.
The dragons gasped at what happened to them.
They each ran up to them as they looked in awe of their new forms.
"Max! You look like you can fly on your own without my help now!", said Ord.
"I guess I can now!", said Max (his voice is of course Illusionary Dan's voice).
"Emmy, you are now just a drop of water with a face, arms, and legs. How do you feel?", said Cassie.
"I feel fine, I guess. But if this is for me, then I guess I'll have to use this.", said Emmy.
"Enrique, you're a tree!", said Zak.
"LOVVVVE IT!", said Wheezie.
"This looks like I'm an actual living tree!", said Enrique.
"You know, maybe we could show this to our friends back home!", said Max.
"Or maybe we could go to Quetzal.", said Cassie.
The gang agreed and exited the cave to go see Quetzal.
Outside the Cave
The fog was gone, so the dragons could see where they were going.
Emmy got onto Cassie, Enrique got onto Zak and Wheezie, and Max decided to not get onto Ord.
"Seems like you want to fly yourself, huh?", Ord asked.
"Yep.", said Max.
So he ran to the edge of the cliff and flapped his wings to fly.
Dragon Land Sky
Max was flying a bit faster than the other dragons.
"Max flies a bit too fast now. It must be his wings!", said Emmy.
"Hey Ord! You want to race?", said Max.
"OK pal! Let's go!", said Ord.
So Ord flew faster to race Max.
"They're zooming! Let's fly with them!", said Wheezie.
Wheezie zoomed with Ord and Max.
"Easy Wheezie!", said Zak.
"Emmy, do you think that you could pick up those crystals just by yourself could mean that something is going on?", Cassie asked.
"I don't know. I'll bet I will know after Quetzal tells us why.", said Emmy.
"I guess it's the only way.", said Cassie.
The School in the Sky
Max was first to land on the ground.
Ord came after him a few seconds later
Zak, Wheezie, and Enrique descended a few more second later.
Lastly, Emmy and Cassie arrived.
"All right! I won!", said Max.
"You sure did, buddy!", said Ord.
Then, Quetzal came out from the door in The School in the Sky.
"Hola ninos! Are you alright?", he said.
"Yes Quetzal!", they all said.
"Where are Max, Emmy, and Enrique?", Quetzal asked them.
"Quetzal! It's us! We transformed into these forms in a cave after picking up crystals and their transformed pendants' power!", said Max.
"Max! Emmy! Enrique! Come in here! I think I know what has happened to you.", said Quetzal.
So the gang went inside The School in the Sky.
Inside The School in the Sky
The gang went inside and noticed that Quetzal was getting a different book than his Magic Book.
"Max, Emmy, Enrique, tell me what happened to you. I might know what it is and why it happened to you.", said Quetzal.
"We were in this fog that you warned us about, but me, Emmy, and Enrique each saw a patch of grass for some of the ground, giving us a job of being a guide to lead them to that spot of grass. We landed on this spot and found a cave that we entered and found three giant crystals each stuck on the ground at the end of the cave. Me, Emmy, and Enrique were able to pull out the three crystals. I was able to pull out the red one, Emmy was able to pull out the blue one, and Enrique was able to pull out the green one. The crystals became pendants that we activated and forced us to transform into these forms. We went back then to see if you know.", said Max.
"Ah, I see it now. It seems that you three are destined for these powers.", said Quetzal.
"Powers?", they all asked.
Quetzal sprinkled magic powder onto the book onto a certain page.
"Yes. The three pendants are known for being used for protecting the universe with their powers of light. The pendants have had many human protectors in the past, as well as still with the three beast protectors. The red pendant Max possesses is of the element Fire. Its power makes the protector much powerful than before. Human protectors will be able to be aces of the sky. The beast protector is known as Dragonoid, a dragon and the leader of the 3 beast protectors. The blue pendant Emmy possesses is of the element Water. The water protector is known for being devastating against foes of the pendants and a master of healing allies of it if they are injured. Of course, the ace of the water is what the human protector is. Aquamentus, a sea serpent, is the beast protector of this pendant. And finally, the green pendant Enrique possesses is of the element Forest. Human protectors will be very stealthy against foes in the transformed form. The ace of the ground is what you could call this protector. Trunkar, a giant forest beast, is the beast protector of this pendant. Together, the pendants were used to defeat the dark lord Black Thorn. Peace to the land continues thanks to these heroes. Unfortunately, that's all I know, so since you 3 are not destined yet, I want you to focus on reverting back to your normal human selves.", said Quetzal.
Max, Emmy, and Enrique focused on reverting back to human form and after a few seconds, were their normal human forms again.
The pendants were in their hands after they were humans again.
"Now ninos, hide these pendants somewhere you can find it when you are truly destined.", said Quetzal.
"When will that be?", Emmy asked.
"You will find that out on your own, Emmy. Now, I think it's time to return to your home and continue your life. Visit Dragon Land too to see your friends also time to time.", said Quetzal.
Max, Emmy, and Enrique said goodbye to everyone and went outside.
"I wish, I wish, to use this rhyme, to go back home, until next time.", they said and were transported back home.
Max and Emmy's House
Max, Emmy, and Enrique were back in the house Max and Emmy live in.
"Where do you think we should hide these pendants?", Enrique asked.
They looked in the closed and saw a box where the pendants could fit inside.
So they put the pendants into the box and hid it inside the closet.
They looked at it before closing the closet.
They walked away from the closet, but Max looked behind him.
"My destiny will come soon. Can't wait for that to happen when the time comes.", he thought and walked away.
Mysterious Lair
An evil king was stuck behind a door.
"I guess it will be time for my revival soon!", he said.
He looked at a dark timer.
It said that in 8 years, he would escape.
"In 8 years, the world will be mine! The empire of Black Thorn!", said the evil king (actually Black Thorn).
He laughed evilly.
8 Years Later, Max and Emmy's House
Emmy's good grades at her high school allowed her parents and Enrique to paint her room pink.
"So, how do you like this?", her father asked.
"I like it. Thanks Mom, Dad, and Enrique.", said Emmy.
"You're welcome.", said her mother, her father, and Enrique.
"Say, as anyone seen Max?", Enrique asked.
"I might have heard him going to the skate park.", said Emmy.
"Let's clean up and then we can go see Max.", said her mother.
So they cleaned up and went to the skate park in town.
A red dragon watched them exit the house from a distance.
"At any moment now, Black Thorn will be revived. Max, Emmy, and Enrique are ready to use their new powers now from the pendants, especially Max. He is the true destined one.
Town Skate Park
Emmy, Enrique, and Emmy's parents went to the skate park in town to check on Max.
There, they saw Max's two most trusted friends: Tech and Phoen.
The two of them were just sitting down and relaxing themselves and drinking some water.
"Excuse me, Tech, but have you or Phoen seen Max here?", Emmy asked Tech.
"He is here, but somewhere else in the park. Maybe he will show up in this spot sometime.", said Tech.
"Yeah. Besides, he is literally 100% here in this park.", said Phoen.
"I guess we should look around for him.", said Emmy's father.
"Yes. He should be somewhere here.", said Emmy's mother.
Then, Enrique heard someone yell "YA-HOO!".
He saw that it was someone nearby and recognized easily who it was.
The person skated towards Phoen, Tech, Emmy, Enrique, and Emmy's parents and stopped quickly before he could hit them.
They all knew who he was.
It was Max.
"Max! I should have known you would have been with your friends here. So, why did you go with them here?", said his father.
"It's like I said. I like hanging out with my best buds Tech and Phoen. So I came here and decided to have some fun.", said Max.
"Well, you are in 7th Grade now at your middle school now. So you are literally a teenager now.", said his mother.
"I guess I am.", said Max.
Then the loudspeaker of the park started to speak.
"Clear the park! It's starting to rain!", it said.
So everyone left the park and went back to their houses.
The red dragon saw Max leave with his friends, his parents, and his sister from high in the sky..
"Black Thorn is about to revive! But I sense that also pretty soon, Emmy will be captured and it will begin the adventure of the chosen ones!", he said.
Then a light source came behind him.
"Dragonoid, have you gotten him to understand the truth yet?", said a figure from the light source.
"Not yet. But I sense when that will be.", said Dragonoid (yep, the dragon was him).
"Good. Now we wait for the time to come.", said the figure as he disappeared.
"Black Thorn, prepare yourself! 3 new chosen ones will arise!", said Dragonoid.
Mysterious Lair
Black Thorn has gained tons of power since he was able to see when he would be able to escape.
"Finally, after 8 long years, I can escape!", he said.
He broke the door open and was able to use his power for darkness.
"Bring it on, Dragonoid! I've returned!", said Black Thorn.
An evil laughed followed afterwards.
Max and Emmy's House
Max and Emmy, along with Enrique and their parents, returned to their house.
"So, Enrique, I think it's time for you to go home now.", said Max's father.
"Yes it is.", said Enrique as he went home.
The family said goodbye to him, but then saw breaking news on the TV.
"Breaking news! A gigantic monster has appeared terrorizing the skate park in town as the people were leaving! It did not kill anyone escaping! We, however, must do something about this! But a while later, it just disappeared like it was not even there! This is a mystery we must solve!", said the news reporter.
"A monster in the skate park?", Max's father asked.
"Maybe this all started by someone's attacks.", said Max's father.
"This might possibly be a sign that shows me, Emmy, and Enrique what out destiny is. But could this be really it? Could it be time to use those pendants truly for the protection of the world?", Max thought.
"Max, we are glad you were not killed by that monster.", said Max's father.
"But now, we should be careful around here since we are under attack by some mysterious monsters!", said Max's mother.
Dragonoid saw what happened from a window.
"Max, if you are thinking that it is time now, then you are correct. It is time for you to face against the evil Black Thorn. But, I sense that something will happen to prove yourself if you are worthy of being the destined one.", he said.
Max's School A Few Days Later
Max was at the courtyard at his school with his friends Tech and Phoen.
"Max, did you hear about the incident at the skate park?", Tech asked.
"Yep. I also sense that someone is behind this.", said Max.
"Who could be behind this?", Phoen asked.
"Someone who wishes to destroy out world.", said Max.
Then, Max heard from his other friends, a discussion about the incident and what they will do about it.
"What should we do?", said one friend.
"Are we in danger?", said another friend.
"Someone needs to save us!", said another friend.
"Please, my red pendant, tell me my destiny! Dragonoid, come to me!", Max though after he heard his other friends talking about the situation.
Dragonoid saw him.
"I know that you want me to come to you, but the time will come soon.", said Dragonoid.
Emmy and Enrique's School
Emmy and Enrique were also confronted by friends who questing what is going on.
"Man, what should we do?", asked one friend.
"Is someone planning our every move?", asked another friend.
"Anyone, hear me and save us!", said another friend.
"We need to know what is going on very badly!", said Emmy.
"Yeah, we sure do.", said Enrique.
Max and Emmy's House That Weekend
Max and Emmy were both concerned about the monster invasion, but Max was more concerned since he wants Dragonoid to come to him so that he could fight off the monsters.
Max was watching TV and saw that his mother was preparing to go somewhere.
"Where are you going?", he asked.
"To do my usual errands with Emmy.", said his mother.
"Those places again, huh?", Max asked.
"Yep.", said Emmy as she walked down the stairs to the living room.
Emmy and her mother left a few minutes after they prepared for their departure.
Max continued to watch TV as they left, concerned about his powers.
"Dragonoid, I still wait for your arrival to come.", he said as he was watching TV.
Dragonoid was watching him from the window.
"I sense that the time we meet is about to come right about now!", said Dragonoid.
A Half Hour Later
Max was still watching TV when he heard sirens of police cars.
Dragonoid saw them.
"Now, I must lead Max to getting his new powers!", said Dragonoid.
He disappeared and found a way to inform Max of his new powers.
Max turned off the TV, got up, and saw his mother get into the house.
"What happened?", he asked.
"Your sister is being held by robbers!", said his mother.
"And not only that, but the robbers mysteriously have guarded the bank up! Someone needs to break the barrier and save her!", said one of the officers.
Max ran up to his room.
Max's Room
Max was in his bed with the pillow on his head.
"Emmy! I'm sorry! I should have protected you!", he said in a sad voice.
Then, he remembered the pendants he got years ago.
Max got up from his bed.
"I guess Emmy will be saved after all!", he said.
A mind came into his head.
"Max, please watch this vision I send to your mind!", said the voice.
"Who are you?", Max asked.
"My name does not matter now. This will show you your destiny.", said the voice.
Max had a vision.
In it, is showed that he would get the pendants from the box in the closet in the playroom he, Emmy, and Enrique each hid 8 years ago.
He would activate it, but his vision ended.
"I know. But it looks like I really need it now since I think this is where my destiny begins!", said Max.
So Max went to the playroom.
Playroom
Max went into the closet where he hid the box with the pendants.
He took it out and opened it.
The 3 pendants were not damaged at all.
Max picked up his red one.
It looked entirely like he remembered it when he got it 8 years ago.
The button was still on the back of it.
"Now Max, activate it!", said the voice.
"Here goes!", said Max.
He lifted up the pendant and pressed the button.
It flashed red like before, but then, it made a new transformation.
Max was put into a ball of fire made by the pendant's light.
He then began to transform.
His arms changed, notably his right arm had a gaunlet and his left hand became a dragon's head.
His legs began to transform as well.
His chest transformed as well, and the red pendant was placed onto his chest.
On his back, he grew wings.
Then his head transformed, allowing him to open his eyes which were now red.
The wings hid him, then flapped and caused the fire to return into the pendant.
The transformation transformed Max into an older version of Dan Kuso, notably him from NV.
Max looked at his new form.
"I look older than I was 8 years ago.", said Max (with the same voice from before, but as Dan in NV).
"You have, partner.", said the voice.
Max noticed that it came from his left hand.
"The dragon on my hand! It's an all new dragon!", he said.
"Yes Max, I am the one who told you. I'm Dragonoid, beast protector of the red pendant. I will accompany you on your adventure, unlike the other 2 beast protectors.", said Dragonoid (who was the voice).
"Dragonoid! It is time now! I better find Enrique and tell him about these new powers.", said Max.
"You should do that. Save Emmy and bring her into the battle against the robbers with the blue pendant, Dan Kuso.", said Dragonoid.
"I guess that's my new name in this form. But there's no time. I need to save Emmy!', said Dan.
So he got the other two pendants and went to find Enrique by jumping out the window and flying.
"Enrique!", said Dan as he exited the house.
Enrique was heading over to Max's house after he heard what happened to Emmy.
"Emmy must be saved! I must get some help!", said he said.
Then, Dan landed behind him.
Enrique looked behind him and noticed that his chest had the red pendant.
"Max, so it is time we used the pendants for protecting our world.", he said.
"How did you know who I am, Enrique? My name is different in this form.", said Dan.
"Your chest has your pendant on it.", said Enrique.
"Oh, right.", said Dan after he looked at his chest.
"We need to get my pendant.", said Enrique.
"Enrique, I have this for you.", said Dan as he opened his right hand.
In it were the blue and green pendants.
Enrique took the green pendant from his hand.
He lifted it up and pressed the button to activate it.
Enrique had bark roots cover him up.
The roots became a tree.
Then, as it grew branches, the crown of the tree had something on it.
It looked like a ninja that has skin made out of wood and had clothing that was made by the forest plants.
The ninja jumped down from the tree as it went down.
Dan saw who appeared.
It was Enrique.
He looked at himself.
His pendant was also on his chest.
"I look like a new hero now! Let's go save Emmy!", said Enrique. (His voice is about the same as Orbeum's voice from MS).
"Indeed, Wood Shinobi.", said Dragonoid.
"I'm guessing that's my name in this form. In that case, I'll now call you Dan Kuso in that form. But who was that voice?", said Wood.
"It was mine, Wood Shinobi. I am Dragonoid, Dan's partner.", said Dragonoid.
"Let's go, Wood.", said Dan as he jumped up and started to fly.
Wood then began to fly from his stealthy traits of his new powers and flew behind Dan.
City Bank
The robbers tied up Emmy to a pillar at the bank after they captured her.
"I need someone to help me!", said Emmy.
"She really needs someone to help her! But why can't we get in?", said one of the police officers.
Dan and Wood were above the bank's roof.
"I sense Emmy in there! We need to help her!", said Wood.
"But how do we get in there?", Dan asked.
"There's a barrier blocking the entrances. If we can destroy the barrier, we could get in there, save Emmy, and give her the blue pendant, making the three new heroes awakened at last.", said Dragonoid.
"How will we do that?", Wood asked.
"Maybe my left hand is my battle weapon!", said Dan.
"Yes Dan. Now, let's show this barrier our new power!', said Dragonoid.
So Dan aimed Dragonoid's mouth to the barrier, and blasted fire at the barrier, which destroyed the barrier in 1 hit!
"The barrier is destroyed!", said one of the officers.
Then, the robber leader blasted a beam to the wall, causing a hole to appear.
Emmy saw it and was shocked.
"That robber is a monster!", she said.
"What was that blast", Wood asked.
"That's why this robbery made you two truly destined now.", said Dragonoid.
"We better get in there!", said Dan.
He flew in quickly.
Wood followed him into the bank.
The robbers saw them enter and started to fire their bullets.
Wood threw ninja stars at the robbers and knocked them out.
"So I really am a Ninja now.", he said.
The robber leader then sent more robbers after them.
Dan fired blasts of flame at them, which knocked them out.
"The fire you possess is only made to vanquish the darkness of Black Thorn, not robbers.", said Dragonoid.
Dan just shook his head.
Wood then used his ninja speed to take out more of the robbers.
Even more robbers were sent to defeat them.
"We are not just here to fight these robbers off, but to save Emmy!", said Dan.
"We better evade their attacks and save her, give her the blue pendant, and then she can help you.", said Dragonoid.
Wood saw her tied up to a pillar nearby their location they were standing on.
"She's over there! Let's get her into this battle on our side!", he said.
So the two went to Emmy and cut the rope holding her to the pillar
She saw the two and quickly recognized who they were.
"Max! Enrique! So it is time!", said Emmy.
"Well if you know, then, you might want to use this blue pendant.", said Dan, showing Emmy her blue pendant in her hand.
She took it and activated it by lifting it up high and pressing the button.
Her whole body was transformed into liquid water.
She moved over to some armor that appeared and grew bigger with the armor on.
Her whole liquid body was gone and protected by her armor.
She had a helmet on like she was a Bomberman character, but the face part was still water with Mermaid Bombers's eyes from Bomberman Jetters.
Her new body made her look like she could be able to swim freely underwater.
Her pendant was on her chest.
She was given a spear from the water gods.
"My armor makes this form better than my other form I was in years ago!", said Emmy as she looked at her new body.
"It seems you prefer this form to your other one, Aqua Lady.", said Dragonoid.
"Who was that voice? And who's Aqua Lady?", Emmy asked.
"You are, sis.", said Dan.
"The voice was I, Aqua Lady. I am Dragonoid, Dan's, or should I say, Max's new partner.", said Dragonoid.
"Each of us has a name in these forms. I am known as Wood Shinobi.", said Wood.
"And I am Dan Kuso.", said Dan.
"OK then. I am now Aqua Lady.", said Aqua.
"I guess now we have to all face those robbers!", said Wood.
They came towards them.
"Here they come!", said Aqua.
She used her spear to attack, but it attacked using Aqua blasts that knocked out the robbers.
"This power makes them each too easy for us!", said Aqua Lady.
More robbers in his section for battle surrounded Wood Shinobi.
"Take this!", he said.
He used some more ninja stars at them, each of them knocking out the robbers.
Dan Kuso was left in his section with all but more robbers.
"It's time they faced this move I have: The Dragon Tornado!", he said.
So he spun around and around and around, causing a flame tornado to appear.
He blasted himself at the rest of the robbers, knocking out the rest of them.
"All of the robbers are gone!", said Aqua.
"Now all we need to do is take out the leader!", said Wood.
The leader walked up to them and transformed into a monster.
All of the other hostages were shocked and scared to see the monster.
"That monster looks creepy!", said Wood.
"Leave it to me, guys!", said Dan.
So he flew up to him while using his Dragon Tornado move.
The monster used his beams.
They all blew off course due to the tornado blowing them off course.
When Dan reached the monster, he went right through it and killed it.
Aqua Lady and Wood Shinobi ran up to him.
"That monster was part of your destiny! We need to fight them off!", said Dragonoid.
"So, this is our destiny.", said Dan.
Officers were investigating the robbers in the bank.
"We better split up. Aqua, you stay here and revert. That way, you can be safe. Me and Wood will go back home and wait for you there.", said Dan.
"I'll find a spot to revert back to normal. You two can just return to the Playroom.", said Aqua.
So Aqua went to a place to revert back to Emmy while Dan and Wood headed for Max's house.
The Playroom A Few Minutes Later
Dan and Wood enter the playroom from the window and reverted back to Max and Enrique.
Then, they heard police cars at their house.
From the window, they saw that Emmy was safe.
They ran downstairs to see her.
Living Room
Emmy was safe with her parents.
Max and Enrique were glad to see her.
"She's OK, Max. Now, it's time for you three to have some fun for the rest of the day without getting harmed.", said Max's father.
Playroom Later That Night
Max, Emmy, and Enrique went inside the playroom while their babysitter was home and took out their pendants.
"Guys, I think we have began an adventure.", said Emmy.
Then, Dragonoid appeared behind them.
"I agree with you, Emmy. Now you must use them to defeat the monsters of Black Thorn.", said Dragonoid.
"Who is Black Thorn?", Max asked.
"I'll tell you tomorrow, but one more thing. Max, you are the most destined between you, Emmy, and Enrique.", said Dragonoid as he left.
"Now we need to know why I am the most destined one.", Max said.
