Chapter 4 It was about an hour or so later that she felt two strong hands rubbing her back ever so gently. As she stirred she heard a velvet tenor voice, which she had learned so well in the last few days, whisper, "Jenna. Hey wake up." "Ryo? What's wrong?" She asked as she turned and looked up at him. "Your Grandpa is taking everyone out to a late lunch. He sent me to see if you wanted to go." She sat up beside him with a yawn, before answering. "No. I'm not too hungry. But tell him that I said thanks anyways." "Okay. You don't mind if I stay behind do you?" She shook her head, not really caring. "All right. I'll go tell them." She never took her eyes off of him as he walked out of the room and closed it behind him. After running a brush through her hair, Jenna retreated to the most sacred room in the whole Temple: the room that held the Great Fire. She had the sudden urge to meditate. The flame seemed to pick up its spark as she knelt before it and closed her eyes. This was the one way that she could keep in contact with the spirit world. Every time that she needed help, it almost always showed her the answer that her visions questioned, or gave her clues to it. And it would hopefully soon do so again. "Sun Moon Star Earth. Fire Air Water Rock. I am the flame. Flame is light. I am the fire. Fire is sight. Flame. Light. Fire. Sight." As she opened her eyes again, it showed her the girl from her vision. She looked so familiar, but still she knew that she had never met her on Earth. She had heard that there was a missing Sailor along with the two missing Ronin armors, but who was this other Senshi? A small knock came from the door, breaking Jenna's concentration, causing the image to disappear. She then turned to see Ryo poking his head in with a small 'Sorry to bother you' smile on. "I didn't mess you up did I?" he asked, remembering what happened the last time that he bothered Sage and Anubis during meditation. "Oh no. I was just finishing up. Please, come in." Ryo then came in and sat beside her. Then the flame really picked up its color. He seemed to be confused why, but Jenna guessed it was from his secret of being the Ronin of Fire. The Flame drew strength from those that embraced the power of Fire. When she turned to ask him something an explosion sounded outside. When she opened her eyes again, she was on the ground outside of the Temple. It was so strong that it had almost sent her flying into a tree. But what happened to Ryo? Then she sat up and her eyes darted around looking for him. "You Dynasty guys never give up do you?" She heard his voice say behind her. The sight that she saw was Ryo in Wildfire sub-armor against a female in crimson battle attire. All other features of the creature were practically invisible to the eye. "You Ronins are pathetic! I Mysica, the Lady of Ice-fire, will destroy you in the name of her Majesty, Empress Zoisite!" Jenna didn't hear everything that she said, for she transformed into her Sailor Fuku in the shadows of the debris just in time to help out. "Hey you! Stop right there!" She called out as she saw Mysica attack Ryo, and him block it right before she called out. Both of them shot their gazes to the roof were Jenna stood battle ready. "It's one of those stupid Sailors that Dais warned us of." Mysica thought to herself. She had raven hair that was pinned into a low ponytail to run down to her ankles softly. "Sailor Mars?!" Ryo exclaimed, shocked that she had found him again. "That's right! And in the name of Mars and with the power of Fire I will chew you up and spit you out!" Mysica now took charge at Jenna after sending Ryo sprawling on the ground. "Prove it Sailor Weakling!" Mysica yelled, holding an ice crystal in the air behind Jenna's head. "Jupiter! Thunder! Crash!" the crystal exploded before it reached Jenna and Mysica landed on the ground in a crouch. Ryo watched in awe as four more Sailors landed near Mars on the roof. "Need some help Mars?" "About time you showed up.even though it is mine and Venus's secret mission to find the Triforces." Mars complained. "Well.. I sorta got it clawed out of me." Venus apologized. "It was Sailor Moon's fault!" "We'll talk about this later. Now we have an enemy to fight!" The one in pure blue stated before powering up for an attack. "Mercury! Bubbles! BLAST!!" "Venus Love Chain! ENCIRCLE!!" The chain of hearts, which Ryo had remembered from another battle, hit Mysica through the fog that Mercury created. "Sailor Moon!" "Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm on it already!" The one in the red, white, and blue Fuku said before holding up a discus. "Moon Tiara Magic!!!!!" Mysica dogged the attack easily as the fog cleared. "I'll get you for this! Next time!" "Who was that Mars?" The one called Jupiter asked. "A new member of the Ronin enemy." Mars answered. "Remember. We still have to find Sailor Earth and the other two missing Ronin armors before we raid the Dynasty." "But what of joining the Ronin?" Mercury asked. "I believe that your friends, Mars and Venus, have already done so." Ryo said as he stood near the foot of the Temple. Mars jumped down beside him. "Are you okay Wildfire?" She asked in a soft tone. "I'm all right. But can you explain to me why you have helped the other Ronins and myself? And why you are after the Dynasty?" "All that I can tell you is that we have the same enemy and a few of the same goals." She placed a hand on his cheek with a smile before turning to leave. "Take care of yourself for now Ryo. We will meet again." With that she ran and jumped the roof with the other Sailors, leaving Ryo stunned. "How does she know my name?" "Hey Jenna! Where'd ya go?" Ryo yelled trough the undamaged halls of the temple not long after the fight. He had looked through the already- destroyed ones, and found nothing, so he looked through these. "I'm in here, Ryo!" Jenna's voice could be heard in the small room off to the right of Ryo. He knocked slightly on the door, and then entered. She sat in front of the Great Fire in her Temple kimono and seemed to be cleaning out a cut or two. After seeing that this was so he closed the door behind him and walked over to her. "I was starting to worry, cuz I couldn't find you." "Well.I'm alive huh? OUCH!" She winced in pain as she pressed a little to hard on a cut on her wrist. "Here. Let me see it." Gently Ryo took the wounded limb in his hand and studied it while he cleaned it. It wasn't too deep but it would leave a scar for a while. He then ripped a piece of the cloth that she had with her for cleaning it off of the larger part and wrapped it around her wrist before tying it off as a bandage. "Thanks." Jenna said with a small blush and loving his touch. "No problem." "Ryo! Time to go man!" Kento could be heard from the front of the Temple, where he wouldn't see the mess put back. "I gotta go." Ryo said as they stood up. "Okay. See ya Monday?" "Yeah. Bye Jenna." He hugged her before darting out of the Temple and to the others. Then they headed for Mia's house.
