A Very Ronin Christmas

By BlueBlaze

Chapter 2: Deck the Hall with Dynasty Soldiers

BlueBlaze: I've finished my mindless jabbering for now. Cleva's gonna be here to listen to me write this thing.

Cleva: *Has duct tape over her mouth, and is tired to the chair next to me* *She tries to break free*

BlueBlaze: What's that Cleva? I can't understand you!!! *Rolls laughing*

Cleva: *Gives a "death stare"*

BlueBlaze: *Falls out of the chair, laughing, unaffected by Cleva* Oh my God! Ha! Now down to business. Hey, where's Bob?

Bob: *On the front porch, frozen* (Don't worry, he's like a cartoon character. He won't die on us.)

BlueBlaze: He's probably out somewhere. *Shrugs shoulders* Now to start the fic. It's weird. It's the second chapter, and I'm just STARTING the fic. Oh well. Readers who DO want to read this will understand. Now to start it. Time to get serious.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Its two weeks until Christmas Day and we are putting up the Christmas decorations on Mia's house. When I say we, I mean Ryo, Rowen, Sage, Kento, Cye, Mia, Yuli, White Blaze, Trey (My little bro who hangs here with us because I'm all the family he has. We lived at the orphanage in the city before my armor changed our lives) and me, BlueBlaze. SabreStrike's final attack us was about a week ago. Since then, we have not yet used our armors. I think the others have gotten a bit lazy. Don't tell them. Please? Its nice to have some time to relax and get away from enemies that want to take over this realm. It would be really cool if they didn't attack until after New Year's. I'd like to spend some time with them and get to know them. My little bro and I first came here a few days ago. That encounter with SabreStrike, I will never, EVER forget. That was the day I first realized I was a Ronin Warrior. The day I first met the first wearer of the armor, Xylon. I read in a baby name book that Xylon means "from the forest" in Greek. I thought that was appropriate because my armor is the Armor of the Forest, brother armor to Hariel's Inferno Armor. Xylon was Hariel's younger brother, so the armors are kinda like brothers, I guess.

Mia: "Come on, BlueBlaze. Don't let Yuli and Trey have all the fun."

Us four are decorating the tree. Cye is preparing a turkey for dinner. Kento is the "Official taste tester to make sure Sekment isn't trying to poison us." He just wants to eat. Him and his bottomless belly. Sage, Ryo, Rowen, and While Blaze are putting up the lights and wreaths outside. It's as peaceful as can be, or so I thought.

Rowen: "Hey, guys! Dynasty soldiers! Get out of there and help!"

Kento, Cye and I ran outside. Mia told the two young boys to stay inside, but knowing them, they wanted to watch.

Ryo: "Ronins to arms!"

We all called our own armors. Wildfire, Ryo yelled. Strata, shouted Rowen. Hard rock, Kento bellowed. Halo, thundered Sage. Torrent, Cye stated.

BlueBlaze: "Armor of the Forest, Dao Ciean!!!"

We all were in our sparkling mystic armor. Ryo in red. Rowen in dark blue. Kento in orange. Sage in green. Cye in light blue. I was in white. All six of us were out to defend our home, our friends, and our realm. They charged at us. There were about sixty soldiers. It was very unfair. We all knew who was going to win. We each took our ten to defeat. Ryo and Sage sliced their ten with ease. Kento and Cye blasted their enemies to smithereens. Rowen shot down his share. As for me, my weapon is a small silver pole that transforms into one of the Ronin's weapons. For example, it can be Rowen's Bow, or the swords from the armors of Wildfire, Halo, or even the Inferno. The Fever swords or a replica of them were in my hands. With them, the entire Dynasty army that arrived at Mia's house was defeated. We all transformed back into our normal clothes.

Sage: "Why did Dynasty soldiers attack us?"

Rowen: "I hope this isn't what I think it is."

Kento: "What are you guys talking about?"

Cye: "Does that mean that Talpa isn't dead after all?"

Ryo: "I think it does. We should be prepared if it is Talpa."

Even though I have never seen Talpa in person, Xylon told me all about him when I fell unconscious after I received my armor that fateful day. I was unconscious for three days, and woke up in my room at the orphanage. We tried to keep decorating, but all our happy attitudes were less cheerful than before. Cye's turkey was delicious, none of us said a word that evening, and went to bed early. Between then and Christmas Eve, only one other group of Dynasty soldiers attacked us, but we drove them back with ease. I hope Talpa will give us a break On Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I'm sure none of us will want to fight those days. Christmas Eve went without an attack, but I'm not so sure about tomorrow.

BlueBlaze: So, how is it so far? Will Talpa attack on Christmas? What will we all get? Toys? Clothes? A giant can of Whoop-Ass? Hey, who put that in there? A Talpa fan? I thought they didn't exist. ?_? Oh well? I wonder if Santa is getting everything on my wish list? HE BETTER!!! I know this chapter is very serious. A hell of a lot more than my last chapter, all mindless jabber. He-He! Did I forget to say all the stuff I don't own so the lawyers won't sue me? I don't think so, but I didn't steal anything in this chapter. Wow! There IS a first for everything! But even if I was sued, they wouldn't get anything, 'cause I'm BROKE! I have nothing to give away, except Bob and Cleva. WAIT!!! I NEED THEM!!! DON'T TAKE THEM AWAY FROM ME!!! Where's my time deleter? In my back pocket, again, and this time, I DIDN'T strangle my sister to near death for it! Set it for right before I said that, press the pretty button and..... There IS a first for everything! *Bob is STILL outside frozen with frozen tumbleweeds rolling by*
