Her dream was more disturbing then ever. This time she could remember clearly. She knew the distorted faces that were from the bodies. More came out of the water… or was it fire? Their hands were edging closer and closer. Their mouth moved forming silent words.

Help

"What do you want with me?" she cried out falling deeper within the water. The red water consumed her and was burning her alive.

"Why? Why are you following me," she screamed, "What do you want?" But she knew what they wanted.

Help

"Stop," she sobbed, "stop following me. Please I'll do anything. Just…" It was getting hotter and hotter… "LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!!" She screamed.

With that the figures dissolved back into the water. "No wait!!! I'm sorry don't go!" she said running deeper in the ocean of water.

And then…………….

She was a red armor floating in the ocean nearing her. "Ryo?" she whispered……….

Mia…..

Mia….

Mia….

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Wake up Mia," Yuli said shaking her."

"Hmmmmm," she mumbled. "The woman that lives here…"

"Ms. Leskton Yuli," she said with a scolding matter and how rude that sounded.

"Ms Leskton said she has to get to work and she needs to lock the door so we have to go."

"I'm up she said grimly. 'Boy that's Anne for you, hurry in hurry out.'

Mia felt grimy. She had no sleeping clothes on because this was at the last minute. She brushed her hair quickly and grabbed her keys.

"Bye Ann"

"Hnnn," said a voice from the shower. '

That is what'll I do when I get home,' she thought, 'take a nice llooonnnnnnnngg bath and relax.

As Mia grabbed her keys she felt a sinking sensation flow through her…. She had no idea what will be in store for her.

Sage got up from his sleep. Rowen was snoring as usual. He stretched and yawned lazily. It was time for morning meditation.

That is… after breakfast.

He trudged downstairs to see Cye cooking eggs.

'Hey mate!" he replied happily.

"Your up bright and early," Sage said plopping down in the chair.

"You know what they say, the early bird gets the worm," he said cheerfully.

"This bird would like some pancakes instead… and maybe some bacon and sausage with hash browns.""

Cye scowled, "I'm making eggs and toast."

Sage smiled, "Yeah that would be good to on the side."

"Go find yourself some worms for breakfast," Cye said throwing a wash cloth at him.

"Whatever you say," Sage said, " I heard it was better then your cooking anyway."

Cye laughed, "Well early one wake up the others for breakfast…."

"BREAKFAST???? FOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Kento's voice boomed. In a flash Keno was downstairs.

"Sit," commanded Cye pointing at the chair with his spatula. Kento obeyed.

"What is with the ruckus?" Rowen grumbled scratching his head lazily.

"Food," Kento replied simply.

"Ahhhh," Rowen said understandingly. He plopped down next to Kento.

"Eggs are finished," Cye said. Kento jumped up but Cye shot him a look.

"No one eats till everyone is here including Ryo," Cye said.

"RYO MAN HURRY DOWN HERE! WE ARE EATING," bellowed Kento.

The other's winced.

Sage rolled his eyes, "Could you be a little more loud?"

"Yeah"

"It doesn't matter," Rowen said, "I'll wake him up." "Hurry and do that," Kento whined, "I'm hungry."

Rowen grumbled something about being to impatient while he trudged his tired body upstairs.

"Ryo," he said opening the door, "We are waiting for….."

The bedroom was empty,

"…You?" Rowen felt a stab of fear.

'No problem he's probably out for a walk.' Rowen quickly searched for him mentally. 'Ok I can't find him… so he is not in telepathic range… that means nothing he would only be… 2 MILES WITHOUT TELLING ANYONE OF US' he mentally screamed.

"Guys," he said with fear in his voice as he practically flew downstairs, "I can't find him."

The Ronins looked confused.

"What do you mean? Where is he?" Sage said.

"He's not here… I tried searching for him telepathically but he wasn't in range."

"Maybe he went for a walk over two miles?"

"When?" Cye said, "I've been up for hours and I never heard him come down."

"You know what," Sage whispered, "I think we all knew this would happen. But we were scared to jump into anther fight."

Everyone's eyes looked down.

"What do we do?" Kento asked.

"Wait for Mia. One person will stay here and watch Mia and Yulie and the others will search for him," Rowen said.

"What do we tell Mia," Cye asked.

"… The truth. Lies haven't gotten us anywhere yet. After all if we don't tell them anything, they might be in bigger danger. "

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ryo lay on the cold ground. He tired to get up but his strength felt gone. He could taste the metal floor and blood in his mouth. He tried to focus on something but it was hard he was so weak.

"Focus harder Ryo you have been in tougher spots," he thought. He looked around. Was he in a dungeon? The room was perfectly square and it was cold and bare. He felt heavy metal clasped around his wrist and pressure on his legs. Normally this would have been a piece of cake o get out of but right now he felt beyond tired.

"Armor of the Wildfire,' he whispered, "Dao-chi."

Nothing came.

He tried mentally calling his friends but his mind couldn't pass the four large walls the seemed to trap him. There was no way out. His eyes shifted to a skeleton hanging on the wall. Half of it seemed as if it was melted away and the other seemed perfectly fine. He inspected it closer. He has never seen such a skeleton.. like a tiger and a vultures mixed together. He shivered. He knew it was not from earth… he was dealing with another dimension now.

Suddenly a sheet of light entered… a door had opened. He closed his eyes to shield it from the light. He heard footsteps draw to him closer and he waited for the torture to begin. But there was no low. He looked and a slender figure was before him.

'Here," said a soft voice, "drink this." He opened his mouth and water filled his dry lips. He looked at the girl. She was beautiful. Her hair seemed bright blond and her eyes were as green as Mia's. She was dressed in rags and he was sure she was a servant.

"Come you must be hungry," she said putting down a tray with bread and soup and feeding it to him. She watched him while he ate and Ryo began to blush.

'Why am I blushing,' thought Ryo, 'I like Mia… don't I? Hey what do I mean I like Mia I mean… since when…' His thoughts raced a mile a minute.

She was about to leave when he called out, "Wait!"

"What's the matter," she said concerned.

"What is a girl like you doing here."

She looked surprised; "I'm the servant of my master." Ryo studied her and this time she blushed.

"Why do you serve him?" She bowed her head in shame.

"I have been a servant for a long time," she said sadly, "I would love to be free but I have no power. I can't fight my master."

He raised his hands to hers despite the weight and he pulled her down next to her.

"I promise to repay you for your kindness. I'll give you your freedom," he whispered his face a few inches in front of her. She looked shocked and then she smiled a wistful smile.

"I would love freedom. Ok hero," she said; her smile genuine, "I will wait for you to rescue me."

Ryo blushed when he realized their obvious closeness.

She got up and dusted her off.

"Until later," she whispered leaving. The door opened and closed behind her. Ryo closed his eyes. He was confused. This battle is going to be very interesting.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Mia walked out of the car. "Come on Yulie," she called out. Yulie dropped to the ground. She dragged the sleepy boy in the house.

"I'm home."

She watched the whole group pile out before her with grim looks on their faces. She felt dread wash over her body.

"What is it?" she whispered feeling her body sink into the ground.

"It's Ryo… we can't find him and we think he was captured," Rowen said. Tears welded up in her eyes.

Her dream… the armor… she knew this would happen. The room seemed to blacken and she could feel herself fall.

'No," she whispered to herself, 'Your stronger than that… you have to keep strength. Slowly she saw the colors come back and she felt strong arms around her fragile body.

It was Sage comforting her. Mia was shaking. "It's ok Sage I'm ok." She said.

He pulled her out of is arms. "You sure?"

She nodded.

Sage searched her carefully. "You and Yulie are staying here with Rowen while we search for Ryo," he said, "That ok.?"

Mia frowned, "I don't need a baby-sitter." But inside she was glad that Rowen would be there to protect her.

Sage frowned with 'don't-argue-with-me look.

"I have no idea where we will start but we'll find a place." Sage felt a dread that the team was being separated. He didn't want Mia to come with them and no way in hell he was going to let her be unprotected.

Don't worry she'll be safe and Yulie to Rowen said. Sage nodded.

"Good luck," Yulie said.

When the guys left Yulie went upstairs to go to sleep.

"Come on Mia," Rowen said, "Cye made us some eggs and toast. Mia smiled gratefully as she was directed toward the kitchen.

She sat on the chair while Rowen took out the now cold eggs and toast.

"Sorry if they are a little….." Rowen saw Mia was asleep and smiled. He lifted her from the chair and carried her upstairs to her bed. This whole thing was tiring.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The creature smiled. Perfection. Ryo was acting just liked she predicted and know the other… Ronins as they called themselves were searching for him. It was perfect. She would swat them down… but first… a little fun.
