Rowen couldn't help but laugh as he listened to Kento's plan. True, it was only two days before Christmas and they still hadn't gone on a sleigh ride but his plan was pure madness. For some reason Rowen found himself hiding in one of the many trees of the area and waiting for the four warlords to approach.
' if Ryo finds out what we're doing, we won't be worrying about the warlords killing us it'll be Ryo and Mia.' thought Rowen unhappily.
His attention was suddenly turned away from Ryo and Mia by Sage's warning signal. The four warlords were coming and fully armored too. They were in luck. Rowen looked down at the base of the tree and suppressed the laugher that bubbled up. There, at the base of the tree he was in, lay a pile of snow covered bells with evil intent.
Seeing his target approach, Rowen turned his thoughts back to his job. It wasn't going to be easy but it would be worth it in the end. Finally he saw Anubis approaching in the thick snow. Silently, he waited until the bearer of cruelty was directly beneath him then dropped from his tree. Using his bow like a club, he knocked out the stunned warlord with a single blow. Looking around he saw his four friends attaching their bells to the warlords armor.
Dashing through the snow,
on a one horse opened sleigh
Rowen quickly attached the bells and began dragging Anubis through the snow towards a nearby hilltop. As he pulled the warlord along he realized that Kento was right, the armors did slide well on the snow.
o'er the fields we go
laughing all the way.
" This was way too easy!" laughed Kento dragging Dais along behind him.
" This was pretty easy." admitted Cye giving the unconscious Sekhmet a tug.
" So, where are we going?" asked Sage sliding Cale a little further.
" That big hill over there across the field." grinned Kento pointing to the large hill.
bells on bobtails ring
making spirits bright
oh what fun it is to ride and sing a song tonight
It took the four warriors nearly an hour to drag the unconscious warlords across the four acres of field and up the hill. Once they reached the top, they took the time to wake up the unconscious warlords before the fun began.
" Wakey wakey." Grinned Kento whitewashing Dais While the other Ronins found similar ways to wake up their captives. Once they were awake, the four warlords found themselves face down in the snow with bells on their armor.
" I suggest that you put your face guard up." said Rowen sitting on Anubis. Rowen looked around and saw everyone ready," Alright, first one to the bottom wins. Ready! Set! Go!"
jingle bells jingle bells
jingle all the way.
Oh what fun it is to ride on a one horse open sleigh
Rowen, Cye, Sage, and Kento pushed off on their warlord sleds and raced to the bottom. For a while Kento was in the lead on Dais but Sage and Cale quickly caught up. Rowen and Anubis were quickly past the blonde warrior but from out of no where, Cye and Sekmet took the lead. Then, from some unknown place, a tree popped into Cye's path and Sekhmet hit it squarely causing Cye to fly off and land right in Rowens path. Sage, in an attempt to avoid the now out of control Anubis sled swerved and smashed into Kento tangling their warlords in strings of bells.
The four Ronins found themselves rolling in the snow laughing so hard their sides hurt. Sage was laughing so hard tears were streaming down his cheeks, leaving red lines. It was finally groans from the nearby warlords that brought them back to reality.
" Let's get out of here before they wake up." giggled Cye," That was pretty fun. We should do it again for new years eve."
