Okay I'm Davis and right now Matt, Ken, and I have unlocked our spirit beasts. Mine is a phoenix, Matt's is a dragon, and Ken's is a chimera. I'm sure once Tai can unlock his we'll be an unstoppable force.
Davis and the others were in the middle of a fight with Xelvin's troops and Granx was the one leading the charge.
"That's it keep fighting." Granx said and Davis sliced right through a troop.
"Bring it one Granx. We're ready for you." Davis said. "You guys ready to go?"
"Let's do it." Matt said.
"I'm right with you." Ken said.
"Spirit Phoenix Unleash!"
"Spirit Dragon Unleash!"
"Spirit Chimera Unleash!"
All three of them transform and were able to fly right through the troops with them turning into vapor. Tai ran to try and keep up with them.
"Okay it's my turn." Tai said. "Spirit Beast Unleash!" He tried to transform, but nothing happen and he didn't know why. "Come on why won't it work. I'm the only one who hasn't awaken my spirit beast." Davis stepped down on the troops.
"Go on ahead Davis and finish Granx." Matt said through telepathy.
"My pleasure." Davis said. He charged up a fire blast in his beak and fired it at Granx.
"No not again." Granx said and got blasted. After the battle Davis and the others were celebrating the victory.
"Did you see me? I was on fire." Davis said.
"I was all electric." Matt said.
"I blew them all away." Ken said. However Tai had his head held low.
"Tai is something wrong?" He looked up a little and saw Halo.
"Oh Halo, no I'm alright." Tai said. 'It's not fair. I'm the only one who hasn't unlock my spirit beast. Why?' He thought.

Xelvin's Castle
"Please Master Xelvin give me another chance." Granx said as he begged for mercy by Xelvin.
"I gave you plenty of chances and you blew them all." Xelvin said.
"If I may interfere I have an idea." Granx looked behind him and saw Black Star.
"Oh it's you, don't you belong on another world?" Granx said.
"Silence Granx." Xelvin said. "Though he's right Black Star. What about your mission on the mortal world?"
"I have already identified the Star Warriors." Black Star said. "I just need to know them inside and out and I have the machine for that."
"I like to see you try to get the Star Warriors to do that." Granx said.
"Oh I have just the creature for that." Black Star said and whistled bringing out a bull with wings and feathers in the fur and had a long tail. "I merged a Bull Breaker and Crow Flyer and formed the Flying Bull."
"Impressive Black Star." Xelvin said.
"With a little assistance from Granx I can capture one of the warriors." Black Star said.
"Very well, Granx you are working with Black Star." Xelvin said.
"What! I'm not working with him. He's from the human world too after all." Granx said.
"Are you questioning me?" Xelvin said glaring at him and Granx got scared.
"No sir." Granx said.

Earth
Tai was asleep in his room, but was having a dream. In his dream the others were their spirit beasts and leaving him behind.
"Hey guys wait up." Tai said as he chased after them, but they were gone.
"So you're the one who hasn't unlock his spirit beast." He looked to the sky and saw Xelvin. "You are the weakest member of the group." He launched an energy blast and Tai was launch straight up from waking up.
"No way I'm not going to be the weakest." Tai said. When the sun came out Tai came out of his room and was doing some stretches.
"Hey Tai what are you doing?" Kari said.
"Just going for a jog." Tai said as he went out the door. While he was running he ran past Ken.
"Tai what are you doing?" Ken said.
"Oh hey Ken, just doing a jog." Tai said. "What are you doing here so early?"
"It's a Saturday, I had nothing else to do." Ken said.
"Oh well I got to get some exercise in later." Tai said and ran off with him taking cover behind an alley. "Sorry Ken, but I can't let you or the others find out what I'm really up to." Later Tai went to the soccer field and was running back and forth on both ends as fast as he can. "I hope soccer warm ups is the same as this." Tai ran to the other end, but tripped on a basketball.
"Tai?" Matt said as he came and grab the ball.
"Matt, what are you doing here?" Tai said.
"Me and T.K. were just about to play some b-ball. What are you doing here?" Matt said.
"Oh I was just doing some warm ups I got a big game." Tai lied.
"Uh okay?" Matt said finding it weird and walked away. Tai went to the gym and started doing some chin ups.
"Tttttttteeeeeeennnnnn!" Tai struggled to say.
"Hey Tai how many is that?" Davis said startling him and having him let go.
"100, what are you doing here?" Tai said.
"I decided to get a gym membership." Davis said.
"Well I love to stay and chat Davis, but I'm just about leave, later." Tai said as he ran out the door. "Oh boy I'm going to need to find some place private, and I'm going to need some training on my powers."
"Gold Star!"
Tai transformed and decided to head out to the woods.
"Okay I'll swing this sword around and work on coordination." Tai said.
"Alright ladies time to do some training." Tai heard voices in the woods and when he peeked behind some trees he saw the Rose Warriors.
"So much for privacy." Tai said. "Then again maybe one of them can help me."
"So what do we do today?" Mimi said.
"Just take about 20 minutes of solo training and we'll meet up later to do some together." Kari said and they split up.
"Hey Gold Rose." Tai whispered. Mimi looked around and spotted Tai.
"Gold Star?" Mimi said and walked over. "What are you doing here?"
"I came out to do some training. Since you're here maybe we can do some together." Tai said.
"I don't know if my training will help you. Why do you want ME to train YOU?"
"No that's not what I meant, I mean we could just do some together." Tai said.
"Oh okay." Mimi said and they headed to a cliff. "Let's start with some thrust, like this." She started thrusting her staff and Tai started doing the same.
"How many times do you do this?" Tai said.
"3-400." Mimi said.
"400!" Tai said surprised.
…..
The Others
Davis, Ken, Halo, and Matt met up together at an ice cream stand and were talking about what Tai has been up to .
"What do you mean Tai has been weird?" Halo said.
"First he told me he was jogging and from the way he said it, it was like he was hiding something." Ken said.
"Yeah he told me the same thing when I saw him at the school." Matt said.
"Same here at the gym." Davis said.
"Tai has been acting like there has been something on his mind. Maybe he was training." Halo said.
"Why hide it?" Matt said.
"Maybe he thought we give him a hard time or something." Ken said.
"Him?" Davis said.
"He seems kind of upset he's the only one that hasn't unleashed his spirit beast." Ken said. Then their stars began to glow.
"Don't these guys ever take a break?" Davis said.
…
The Woods
"398….399….400!" Tai and Mimi said as they finished their training.
"Whew I can feel it in my arm." Tai said. Back in the woods Granx and Black Star were watching them.
"It's one of the Rose Warriors too." Granx said. "Let's push them over that cliff."
"Not yet, you know the plan." Black Star said.
"Now what next?" Mimi said trying to think of another exercise.
"How about we run down the cliff and avoid the trees." Tai said as he ran off.
"Hey wait!" Mimi said as she went after him. Tai moved from side to side avoiding the trees and finished with a big jump.
"Spirit beast here I come." Tai whispered.
"Hey wait for me." Mimi said, but tripped on a root, but Tai managed to catch her, but fell back with her on top of him.
"You okay?" Tai said.
"I think so." Mimi said, but saw they were close to each other and their faces were red.
"Wow you have a really pretty face." Tai said.
"Uh thank you." Mimi said a little flattered by that.
"Yet also familiar. Have I seen you somewhere before?" Tai said, but before she could answer he spotted the Flying Bull coming at them. "Look out." He rolled them out of the way before it came down.
"What is that?" Mimi said as they got up.
"I don't know." Tai said. The bull started flying again at them. "Move." Tai pushed her out of the way, but the bull grabbed him with its tail and flew off.
"No Gold Star!" Mimi shouted. Tai was taken to a clear field where Granx and Black Star had him restraint on a metal table.
"Let me go, whatever you two want you won't get." Tai said with Granx laughing.
"Let's torture him." Granx said.
"Not yet." Black Star said. "First we're going to gather all his knowledge. We'll know what he knows. The warriors' strengths, weaknesses, anything we can use against them." A helmet with wires was attached to Tai's head.
"Gold Rose, anyone help!" Tai shouted. The Rose Warriors met up with the Star Warriors and saw some dark troops.
"They have him on a restriction table." Ken said.
"Good thing we found you girls." Davis said.
"So what are we going to do to get him out?" Kari said.
"Leave that to me." Davis said. Black Star and Granx were keeping an eye on screen telling what Tai knows.
"Mom's beef milkshakes? Davis' soccer clothes smell worse than cheese? What does any of this mean?" Granx said. Then they heard a commotion and saw a battle going on.
"They arrived sooner than I thought." Black Star said. He spotted Davis coming in for an attack, but Black Star blocked him, but Davis kicked Granx back and jumped on the table.
"Are you okay?" Davis said.
"Yeah just get this spaghetti strainer off my head." Tai said as Davis cut the wires and got him free. "Can't let them have this." He stabbed his sword into the screen and the two took off.
"Oh and I want to know what cheese is." Granx said.
"Flying Bull get them." Black Star said as the bull took off. Ken and Matt with the girls were taking down the troops.
"Look there they are." Yolei said as they saw Tai and Davis heading towards them, but spotted the bull.
"Heads up guys there's an angry bird on your tail." Matt said.
"Don't worry I'll take care of this." Tai said as he slid stop and faced the bull. "Now or never, Spirit Beast Unleash!" The bull fired an energy blast as he tried to transform.
"Did he do it?" Ken said, but when the smoke cleared he was down. "That's a no."
"Come on I can do this." Tai said as he tried to get up.
"C'mon Gold Star put that training to good use." Matt said.
"Training? Who needs training?" Tai said as the bull tried to shoot him.
"To become an spirit beast you need to think what you're fighting for." Matt said.
"Focus your energy." Davis said.
"Leave me alone I got this." Tai said as he tried to avoid getting blast, but was pushed down.
"Put that training you did with me to good use." Mimi said.
"Gold Rose eacksnay the ainingtray." Tai said in pig Latin.
"What?" Mimi said.
"He's just being a big baby." Matt said.
"So I WAS training him." Mimi said.
"Gold Star you don't need to hide it." Davis said and Tai just couldn't take it.
"Okay I admit it I was hiding I was training because I didn't want help. I didn't want you guys to think I was weak or something." Tai said.
"There's nothing wrong for asking for help." Ken said.
"Fine then I need all the help I can get." Tai said and the bull kept firing. "That's it. I have had….enough…..OF YOU!" He began to glow a gold color. "Spirit Griffon Unleash!" He transformed into a giant gold griffon.
"He did it!" Kari said. Tai jumped up and pounded the bull away with his paw. Then wind circled around in his mouth and he fired a beam within a twister destroying the bull.
"Alright!" The guys said.
"Way to go Gold Star!" Davis said.
"Wow this is the coolest thing ever." Tai said.
…
Xelvin's Castle
"It was all Black Star's fault Master Xelvin." Granx said as they report what happened.
"We did manage to recover some images." Black Star said as images were shown to Xelvin.
"Yeah, but they're useless." Granx said and Xelvin spotted one of the guys.
"Maybe not." Xelvin said.
