Ryo was about to return to the kitchen and announce his defeat at finding Kento when he heard his friend scream. That came from outside! He thought as he raced to the front door.

"Give up your armor and I'll let you live, boy!"

"Hey! What are you doing to Kento?!" Ryo rushed toward his fallen friend, but was pushed back by the amount of power.

"And why should I answer you?"

"Who are you?"

The girl sighed. "Fine. I shall give you the privilege of knowing my name. But you have to tell me who you are in return!"

"Gee thanks. Ok, it's a deal. Now, who are you?"

"I am Webby. Your friend, here, has something that my Master wants."

"I'm Ryo of the Wildfire and your master can shove it!" He took out his armor orb. Armor of the Wildfire, Dao Jin!" A minute later, he was in full battle armor. "Now release my friend!"

"Forget it!"

"Then I'll do it myself!" Drawing his swords, Ryo attempted to cut the sticky strands from Kento's body. However, the powerful electricity threw him backwards and he slammed into the side of the house. "Crap! I can't get near him!"

Webby laughed at his miserable attempts and doubled over when he smashed into the house. Instead of paying attention like she should have been, she wasn't prepared for the wall of fire that slammed into her body.

Ryo watched as Webby was hit square in the chest by his attack and thrown back against a tree. Seconds later, a figure, dressed similar to Webby, appeared next to her.

"WEBBY!" The figure cried. "What have you done to my sister?" He stared right at Ryo.

Ryo ignored him. He didn't have time to worry about the new-comer. He had to help Kento! Using mental communication, he called for Rowen to come outside. Quick.Rowen arrived in record time.

"What is it, Ryo?"

"It's Kento! He was hurt really bad and I need your help to get him inside so Sage can heal him!"

"Right!" Rowen bent down and, with Ryo's help, carried Kento into the house.

"Come back here and take your punishment!" The new-comer yelled. But the door closed and he was left alone by the burnt body of his sister. "The guys WILL hear about this!" He picked up his sister and teleported back to the Dynasty.

Meanwhile, in the training room, Sterling was teaching Roan how to fight with a staff. It had been about a week since he first started teaching him and Roan was progressing nicely.

"That's it!" Sterling said as Roan made a rather nice block. "You want to keep blocking like that. But sooner or later you are going to have to start fighting back."

"Ok. How do I do that?" Roan shifted his grip on the wooden staff in his hands.

"Just like I've been doing. I want you to attack me."

"What?! What if I hurt you?"

"That's the point, stupid!" Viper walked over to the sparring duo.

"I'm not stupid."

Viper ignored him. "You want to be attacked? Very well, that can be arranged!" Drawing his sword, Viper charged Sterling and would have gotten a hit if his blow hadn't have been blocked. Viper tried again. Blocked. And again. Blocked. After a few more times of failing to get a hit on Sterling, Sterling lashed out with his staff and knocked Viper clean across the cheek. Viper was temporarily out of business.

"Good job Ster!" Roan clapped and cheered his friend's performance.

"Serves him right." He leaned on his staff. "He should have known better."

"Sterling, Sterling!" Roanna ran towards the two and stopped before them, panting.

"What is it Annie?" Roan put his hand on her shoulder, concern written all over his face.

"You gotta come quick, Sterling. Webby was badly hurt and Spider wants you to heal her!"

"Where are they?"

"In their chambers."

Nodding, Sterling teleported out of the training room.

A while later, the six of them were in the Dynasty lounge, talking about Webby's fight.

"So," Spider began. "this guy makes fun of your weapon then has the gall to bring a friend into the battle?"

"Yeah. And I was winning, too!" She sipped at a water bottle. "It's not fair. That battle was between the two of us, NOT him!"

"Calm down Webby."

"Why, Roan? What good will that do?"

"Well, for one thing, you'll be able to think more clearly."

"Shut up Roan!"

"Jeez Viper, one blow to your face and you lose your cool."

"That goes for you, too, Roanna!"

Just then, Talpa's big, ugly head appeared, scaring his new warlords half to death. "IT'S TIME FOR ANOTHER ATTACK! GET ME THAT ARMOR!"

"Yes Master!" They said in unison. All except one, that is, who remained quiet during thewhole discussion.
