"Come on guys!! You're gonna to love it!" Kento squealed with glee and dashed into the toy store. Sai shook his head in dismay.
"Why did they put a KB's Kiddy department by a bookstore?" He asked checking his watch and scowling at its reading.
Rowan shrugged. "We all knew it was in the mall.... I blame myself." He looked at the colorful bargain signs and cheap front rack action figures and grimaced.
"If only I hadn't needed that copy of 'Beowulf'."
Sage walked over to the rack and shuffled through the dollar fifty specials. "I'd have to agree with you Ro. You've sealed our fate with this little mall trip of yours." He looked up at the neon toy solider of the store sign. "We'll never get him out of there." He sighed.
With perfect nonchalance, Sage examined a Red Lion Voltron(tm) figurine.
"We'll probably have to battle every sale and casher in the place to get him out with his wallet."
"His room is filled up as it is with his 'hobbies'." Ryo pointed out. Rummaging thru a basket of plastic wrappers he was just reaching for a singing hamster (you've seen them you know you have. ^_~).
"AAAAIIIIIiiiieeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!" The four Ronin Warriors snapped to attention. They knew that sound. It filled their nightmares. A truer horror Talpa himself could not have conceived.
That sound.
Kento had found...a toy.
With a speed that truly defined their secrete lives as powerful troopers, they raced into the depths of the toy aisles.
Splitting up would prove to be both a blessing and a cruse. On the one hand each had a good chance of finding Kento, cornering him, and force him to relinquish his purchase. However now none had the benefit of group support to resist the glowing, glittering, temptation of cute fuzzies and hard-plastic limited-edition merchandise.
To be Continued.
