A/N: I don't own Static Shock or the Ronin Warriors, there I said it.

On to the story: More?

"I'm tellin' you Virgil!" Richie said as they were walking down the school hall, of course before school. "He is the Light, You know just like you said Sage of the Halo! He was wearing some kind of samurai armor!"

"Richie I'm not even sure what happened," Virgil said shrugging his backpack his onto his shoulders, "I just know you were supposedly stabbed, that guy in green showed up and he looked nothing like Mr. Date, the community center was wrecked and all the armored guys disappeared, and then you show up as if nothing happened."

"Remember I said he healed me!"

"Yeah but..." Virgil stopped for a moment, "It's just too confusing you also said his clothes changed like he somehow transformed into it or something."

"Hey it's not too difficult to believe remember Adam does it all the time when he's Rubber bandman."

"Well yeah but he's a Bang baby."

"There's no convincing you is there?"

"Excuse me."

"Ah!" Richie was caught off guard,

"Sorry," Said a blue haired guy, "but do either of you know where Sage Date is?"

"You know it's not nice to sneak up on people like that!"

"Ha you sound just like him!"

"Do you mean Mr. Date?" Virgil asked, "That's weird doesn't seem the type to get scared easily, he's in room 316, now that guy is scary. I've been there in detention so much it's given me nightmares." Shivers, "Don't know anyone who'd want to be his friend."

"Oh so you must be his favorite student."

"I really hope you're being sarcastic."

"Sorry, he does that all time to his students, well thanks a lot." And walks off.

"Why would anybody be looking for Mr. Date?" Richie asked then gasped, "What if he's another one of them?"

"Richie..." Said Virgil.

"Yes?"

"How many cups of coffee did you have this morning?"

"Uh... Well...actually..." Richie rubbed the back of his neck as if to search for the answer there. "I never got to sleep."

"How many?"

"Only seven."

"Seven!" Virgil looked shocked.

"Hey that's two fewer then what I usually have for my all-nighters."

"Over achiever!" Virgil walked away.

"At least I'm not teachers pet." Richie followed.

"Great." Virgil stopped at the corner of the hall. "Look who's here..."

"Hotstreak!"

"Oh well at least he's not in any of my classes."

"Lucky you. Oh well hopefully he's not in P.E. today."

They continued on to wonder the halls until the bell rang then headed to the class they dared not to ditch, last time they did they were both put in detention. The guy from earlier was just exiting the classroom and still talking to Mr. Date, "well see you later Sage, and quit giving out so much homework."

"Say hi to Mia for me." Sage smiled, "and quit giving her a hard time."

"Bye." He looked at Virgil and Richie, "see you around Virgil and Richie." The blue haired guy left.

"How did he?" Richie looked shocked.

"Let's get this over with." Virgil walked in.

Richie sat next to the window, his eyes wide open and staring off into space. Virgil waved his hand in front of him and shrugged, must've fallen asleep with his eyes open again, he thought. Then an evil idea popped in his head and charged up his pinky and...

"Ah! I'm awake!" Richie jumped in his desk getting a few laughs.

"See that is stays that way." Said Mr. Date turning back around to the chalk bored and stopped as his eye widen looking out the window.

Virgil quietly giggled.

"Ha ha very funny." He said turning to Virgil.

"Get down!" Mr. Date yelled as the windows shattered and foot soldiers entered the classrooms through the windows.

The students ran screaming and fleeing to the halls, the school was in chaos all over. Some of them escaped making it outside while others were trapped as the foot soldiers blocked every other way out. A few of the boys escaped from the restroom windows as well as some girls but they didn't get too far and were surrounded. Richie and Virgil were still in class back to back with each other not sure of what to do.

"Well?" Richie said, "What do we do?"

"That's what I should be asking you," Virgil Whispered.

"Mr. Date and a few others are still here so we can't change into Static and Gear, and you can't use your powers either."

"Now we have you brats surrounded." Said a soldier.

Mr. Date threw a desk knocking some of them over, "Get out of here!" He yelled holding his side pulling a muscle, "Go!"

"And you?" Richie yelled and glared.

"Just go!"

"Come on!" Virgil pulled him along and shoved a soldier blocking the doorway freeing them and the rest of the class. "We'll come back for him later!" He shocked and blasted a few of the foot soldiers running oppisite of all the other students and brought the two to the girl's locker room.

"The girls locker room?" Richie looked around, "so this is what it looks like."

"Wow!" Virgil also looked around then shook his head, "come on!"

"Right!"

In no time Static and Gear ran through the halls trying to get rid of the foot soldiers without hurting any of their fellow students. They barely missed Hotstreaks fireball coming at them through one hallway. After it disappeared they looked back at it seeing puddles of metal on the floor.

"Hotstreaks temper must be flaring again," Said Static then looked up seeing the double doors to freedom and a puddle right in front of it. "A way out!" Static took out his disk unfolding it and flew over, with really good reflexes he held his hand out stopping a few chains and spears.

"Static!" Gear yelled, "Open the door!"

Static did as told and the doors flung open then carefully aimed the weapons back at the foot soldiers and fired. They dropped to the floor and the trapped students ran to safety or so they thought...

"F L A R E U P NOW!" a line of fire threatened to cook them.

"Hey!" Static held up a barrier around all of them protecting the students, and then he gathered them in a force field flying off to safety. "Are all ya'll all right?"

"Yeah." Said Omar a bit shaken up as they landed on a near by roof.

"Get out of here before it gets worse!" Static returned to the school and saw another Armored guy only this time his armor's red and his mask wasn't even on.

Gear skated around the halls with a bunch of foot soldiers chasing after him then ended up in a science room, he smirked as they stared blankly at them and yelled, "Backpack now!" backpack dropped down from the ceiling breaking a tank and hurried over to Gears back as he jumped out the window. "That acid should slow them down." He landed on the schools roof.

"A R R O W SHOCKWAVE!"

Gear shocked himself when he caught the arrow, "How the?" He saw someone off in the distance with dark blue armor. He shrugged and ducked when someone from behind him told him to, another person in the same type of armor fended off the foot soldiers on the roof then turned to Gear, his face was covered with a mask so Gear couldn't even tell who it was.

"Get out of here!" Said the guy in Green armor. "Well take it from here!"

"Hey you need our help!" Said Gear.

"It's you again!" Static landed, "your friends showed up. Mind tellin' us why you're here?"

"Just get the students out of here as quick as possible." The Guy in Green explained, "they are in danger if they stay here long. We'll take care of the sentries out here."

Static and Gear looked at each other and with no argument nodded once then jumped off the roof and into the school. Static flew through the halls and stopped in front of the Janitors closet and blew the door open taking the Garbage collecting cart out and flew through the halls collecting as many students as he could in it. Gear pretty much distracted the "sentries" while Static did his part.

Of all the places to drop off the students Static flew all the way to the mall and dropped off the load then flew all the way back to the school for another. Then he ran into Hotstreak.

"All right now for the real challenge." Hotstreak said tossing a fireball in hand.

"This is not a good time right now!" Static was about to pass by him when out of nowhere this torrent flushed them down the hall and into the cafeteria, they sat up coughing and wheezing. Static snapped his fingers to see if he could get a charge and only got a spark, "No!"

"I hate water!" Hotstreak got to his feet then looked down and noticed something really embarrassing and looked around finding his pants on top of a vending machine. Static was laughing seeing this, "Hey if you tell this to anyone I swear I will kill you and your little sidekick!" He stormed off to go retrieve them.

Static grabbed his disk on the way out and returned to the hallway and ran around in search of Gear hoping he had a Zap cap on him so he could recharge his power. He took out his shock box and called up Gear, "Gear you there?"

"Gear here what's up?"

"I was just shorted out I need a Zap cap!"

"Get to the music room," Static heard a window shatter, "I just threw one in hurry!"

Moments later Static entered the room and found it on the teachers' piano and charged up and resumed with collecting the students. When he was done he saw the doors to the school swing open Hotstreak was the last to leave the grounds grumbling and cursing to himself. Gear met him in the sky and reported that there were no more students in the school.

"O.k." Said Static, "But where do these things keep coming from?" He looked down and saw the sentries, "Seems like they've quadrupled."

"Backpack," Gear commanded, "Locate the source of where these sentries are coming from." Then received his information, "No way!"

"What?"

"There are a three portals on the school grounds,"

"How did backpack find it?"

"I had Backpack look for the same type of metal that I was studying, there is one in the gym and another in the guys' locker room, whew good thing we didn't go in there, and there's another... right below us?"

They looked confused and looked down, the sentries were popping out of thin air but from the same area. Suddenly another torrent of water blasted away the newcomers and the portal.

"O.k. now that makes two." Gear corrected.

"Look!" Static pointed to the Green one they where talking to earlier. "He could use some help."

The Green one raised his sword with some difficulty and an armored foot connected to his chest and fist to his back. He dropped his sword and was punched multiple times before hitting the wall and going unconscious on the floor. Static and Gear trashed the sentries beating up on the Green one and checked him. Gear was hesitant not even sure how to tell he was still alive then reached the neck the only visible spot for a pulse. To their surprise the mask of the helmet retracted up.

"Huh?" Static looked confused.

"A retractable mask." Gear proceeded to take the helmet off. The two were shocked to see who it was as the hair fell in place and gasped.

"Mr. Date?" They said in unison.

"I told you!" Said Richie.

"Hey!" A voice from above got their attention.

Static flew up and found a guy in orange armor waiting for him. "So you're the one calling all of the evil dudes out."

"Not me."

"Liar!" He shouted and readied his strange weapon, "I R O N! –"

"Hey!" Static used his power to take the weapon from him and held it in his hands, "didn't your mother ever tell to never play with sharp objects?"

"Didn't yours ever tell you to never steal?"

"Hm?" Static thought about it then "She also never told to run around scissors," turned and yelled, "Gear! Let's get out here and grab the teacher!" Static flew off taking the strange weapon with him.

"Hey!" The Orange guy watched as the two flew off.

Gear and Static finally made it to the gas station and once inside set Mr. Date on the counter. Gear removed the helmet again and set it near by. Then thought for a moment.

"What?" Static was curious to know what he was thinking.

"His armor..." There was a long pause.

"Yeah... what about it?"

"Well I was just wondering if it was different compared to those armored things attacking the school." Gear gets excited, "I can't wait to run tests on it!"

"What? It's his armor, we can just do stuff to it."

"Oh, "Gear's excitement left, "yeah your right, guess we have nothing to do but wait."

"Good thing it's Friday." Virgil flopped down on the sofa, "I'm going to sleep." And snored away. In the meantime Gear picked up the helmet and looked at it.

About an hour later Virgil was up and out side playing with the strange new weapon, it had two small blades at one end of the staff like pinchers and another blade on the other end like a hook. He thought it was kind of weird when he all ready knew how to use it until it fell apart and panicked to put it pull it back together again. It didn't make sense to him, it was like one of those fall apart toy horses that stay connected with a string but he couldn't figure out how to straiten out again.

Inside Richie was tinkering around with Backpack when Mr. Date awoke still in armor and became alarmed when he realized he was still in armor but his helmet was missing. Then sat up and startled Richie when he asked, "Where am I?"

"Your awake?" Richie quickly stood up, "Your safe at our hang out." He was a bit embarrassed to say.

"A gas station?" he saw Richie blush and look down, "Where's my helmet?"

"Oh," Richie retrieved it from a nearby counter. "Right here." And held it out in front of him.

Mr. Date hopped off the counter and took his helmet then transformed back into his normal clothes. "So you know. Where is Virgil?"

"Outside playing with that weird staff."

"What staff."

"Richie!" Virgil yelled just as they came out the door, "I broke it!"

"You what?"

Virgil turned around and stood horrified as Mr. Date was up and walking. "I swear I didn't mean to it was an accident!"

"You took Kento's weapon!"

"Kento?" Virgil was a bit confused on as to who that was. "This one guy in-"Virgil was cut off.

"Orange armor?" Mr. Date finished his sentence, "I can't believe you stole his weapon."

"Hey if he was going to do anything like the guy in red armor he would've destroyed the whole school."

"We had no intention of destroying the school just the soldiers invading it!"

"We?" Richie stepped back confused.

"My self and the other Ronins. You met one of them before school."

"O.k. so that's the reason why you're here." Said Virgil, "Those things followed you and your friends brought more."

"No! I came here in search of something," He glared at Virgil, "I may have found it but it's still debatable at the moment, and I won't know for sure until I meet up with the others. But before I go I need that staff back."

"Uh?" Virgil looked down, "It's kind of broken."

Mr. Date snatched it and in his hands it straightened out on it's own then he professionally twirled it around and stopped pointed it between Virgil's eyes, "it's not broken it's just in the wrong hands." The staffs' ends fell and he folded it up. "I'll be returning this."

Virgil and Richie looked shocked for a moment and Virgil spoke, "How'd you do that?"

"If green is the light then what was the orange one?" Richie asked.

"How do you know about that?" Mr. Date looked over shoulder.

"I was studying it for a while over the Internet, then I was trying to look up some stuff in class when you interrupted me. I still never got my response over the internet."

"That was you?" Mr. Date walked off. "If I'm right..."

"If your right about what?" Virgil asked.

"Grab your stuff and follow me and bring your Static and Gear costumes."

"How did he know?"

A moment later they were on the city bus, the last thing Virgil wanted was to be seen in public with the worst teacher to walk the face of the Earth, but out of curiosity he went along. Luckily for him Mr. Date let him carry the staff in his backpack, the three of them agreed it would be highly unusual to see a staff with tree blades on it in a public place

Right when they got off near the outskirts of town Virgil asked, "So how did you know who we are?"

"It was pretty obvious," Mr. Date said, "the two of you are inseparable, only rarely do I see you two apart then I managed to get a good look at you two when Richie was stabbed."

"Hey I told you not to take off his mask!"

"But he didn't." Said Richie.

"As I was saying," Mr. Date continued, "I sized you two up which was a bit hard for me to tell if it was Richie or not because of your usual baggy dressing. The masks don't really help much, I also knew it was you two because of your voices. The hair was another dead giveaway."

"Not even our families are able to tell that easily."

"Where are we going anyway?" Virgil asked.

"To meet with the others." Mr. Date replied. "Mia has a bit of money to spend so she likes to stay close to the out doors in a cabin." He said just as they entered a forest.

After a while of uncomfortable silence Virgil and Richie stopped as they heard a low growl. They both looked around for it's source but couldn't find one.

"Where's that coming from?" Virgil asked.

"Oh I forgot to warn you," Said Mr. Date, "Ryo has a white tiger around here."

"A what?"

"But," Started Richie, "White tigers can't live out here, it completely the wrong environment."

Just as he said that Mr. Date ducked as the White tiger jumped out and pinned the two teens then lowered his head to their faces. Both where too scared to move then it stared licking Virgil, he couldn't help but laugh and pushed the tiger back. The white tiger got off of them and ran off.

"Great just what I needed," Said Virgil sitting up and tried to wipe off the tiger slobber.

"That was Whiteblaze." Said Mr. Date offering a helping hand.

"Big kitty." Said Richie taking the hand. "Anything we should know about it?" He picked up his backpack.

"Yeah just one: If you don't know where to go just follow the white tiger and the tiger in white armor." He jumped and snatched Virgil's backpack and disappeared into the trees.

"No! Wait!" Virgil stood up, "He took my gear!"

"No," Said Richie, "He only meant to get that weird staff."

"What do you think he meant by follow the white tiger?"

A few arrows came threateningly close to Richie's head and hit a nearby tree. "I think I know." Said someone in dark blue armor holding a golden bow, then reached back for an arrow and took aim again.

"RUN!" They yelled and ran away. They were lucky to have missed all the arrows and saw the white tiger then Richie tripped.

"Richie!" Virgil stopped and went back for his friend, "Come on!"

Richie got up with Virgil's help then shoved Virgil away letting a line of fire pass them, "You all right V?"

"Uh yeah..." He said a bit shaken up and looked around, "no we lost the tiger!" He got up and the two continued to run.

They looked around and couldn't see anything but forest, then tumbled down a hill into a few bushes. A ball of fire passed just above them then a guy in red armor looked around and jumped into the trees.

"Hey V if we don't think of something quick we could whined up dead," Said Richie.

"Yeah I know." he thought about it, "what about Backpack."

"AH I get it use Backpack as a decoy." Richie took off his school backpack and lifted his sweater where Backpack was hiding and crawled off and into the forest.

"You wear Backpack under your sweater?"

Richie shrugged and ordered Backpack to climb up a tree and look around then climbed even higher the branch it perched on was cut by the same guy then Static jumped out and with his power held him in the air.

"Hey!" The guy in red armor struggled to move, "put me down!"

"If you say so." Static threw him off in the distance. "Well that's one down and how many more are there?" He turned around and caught an arrow. "Haven't done that before." He tossed the arrow away.

"Let's see you do that a second time." Said the guy in dark blue.

"Hey it's you!" Richie jumped up out of the bushes, "We saw you before school and you tried to shoot me!"

"A R R O W SHOCKWAVE!" The arrow made contact with the ground sending the two flying.

"This guy has to have a weakness somewhere," Said Richie. "Backpack!" Richie got up and ran as his machine hitched a ride on him. Then stopped, "Virgil!"

"There armor is made out of metal what's stop me from doing the same to him as the other guy." Virgil tried to get him but the blue guy was too fast and he kept missing.

Richie searched his school bag for a cap then the guy in red stepped up in front of him and Richie looked up. "Uh-oh." Richie just jumped back flinging his backpack over his shoulder.

"Did you really think you could get rid of me that easily?" The Red one smirked.

"Uh... Virgil?" Richie took a step back just as the Red guy took one forward. "Virg!"

"I'm a bit busy." Said Virgil still trying to get the Blue one.

"Fine!" Richie just reached into this backpack and accidentally threw a zap cap, "Whoops that's wasn't what I wanted." Bring the Red one to his knees, "But it worked."

The Red Guy got back up and Virgil rammed him, "Trade you!"

"I have a better idea." Said Richie. "how about we try to stick together on this!" He winked.

"Good idea." Virgil nodded, and they ran in opposite directions getting one to follow the other. Virgil slid to a stop and turned around then held his hands out stopping the blue one and sent him back and the blue collided back to back with the Red. "Good friends do stick together."

"What the Hell?" The red tried to move his arm but pulled the blue one's back. "I can barely move my arm!"

"Hey that hurt!" The blue tried to step forward pulling the red ones back. "Ah I can't move!"

"The plan worked!" said Richie. "Now we just have to disarm them."

"Right." Virgil agreed then took the bow, "Here Richie put it in your backpack!"

"Got the swords!" Richie said.

"Hey give those back!" the Red guy yelled as the two ran off then tried to go after them and leaned forward.

"Ryo don't!" The blue one yelled and fell back hard.

Richie was still running and at the same time attempting to put away the weapons then he abruptly stopped bumping into Virgil. "Hey we found the tiger again!"

"Looks different." Virgil got a better look, "Even the tiger has armor!" Virgil watched it run off and disappear. "Come on!" Virgil and Richie followed.

"T H U N D E R B O L T CUT!"

"Richie look out!" Virgil crashed into him and the two fell down a hole.

"What the heck was that?" Richie asked hysterical.

"Like you said Sage of the Halo. Come on let's get out of here."

They grabbed a few vines and pulled themselves out. Richie was out first and ducked a long blade dodging everyway it went and jumped over it, "What are you trying to do? Kill us?"

"I'm only testing a theory." Said Mr. Date again clad in his green armor.

"There it is!" Virgil yelled, "the tiger."

"Got my hands full." Said Richie and dodged the sword again but Backpack suffered the loss of a limb. "Ah! Backpack!"

Virgil pulled Richie along and barely missed the blade cutting off a dread, "That was close!" Virgil could hear Mr. Date calling his ultimate attack then turned around a little late but still managed to deflect the attack by shooting lightening a lightening bolt of his own.

"Lucky shot!" Richie commented.

"Can't this tiger lead us to a place to rest?" Said Virgil and as if the tiger could knew what he was saying it led them to a cave where they took shelter and caught their breath. "Hey Richie... how long have we been running for?"

"Don't know." He lie down on his stomach, "I know that we can't rest for too long."

"How'd you do that?"

"I don't even know." He got up to all four, "I guess when you're in trouble you just follow your instincts."

They rested for a half hour and made a run for it but couldn't find the tiger anywhere. Then the staff Virgil had earlier twirled through the air and someone caught it, "I R O N R O C K CRUSHER!"

Virgil made a barrier around them and were caught in the blast. "It's him again!" Virgil did his best in holding up his shield.

"Cye now!" The Orange guy yelled.

"Virgil Stop!" Richie yelled getting a good look at a Baby Blue armor and a strange looking trident.

"What?" Virgil's temple and nose were bleeding and he was loosing energy fast.

"Water!" Richie shouted, "Lots and lost of water!"

"S U P E R W A V E SMASHER!" the torrent of water shorted out Virgil and knocked him and Richie into a near by lake.

Richie looked up as the he could see the sun shining through the water and blacked out.

Good? Bad? What? Please give me feed back on this!
