Disclaimer: I do not own RW. RW belongs to… uhh who ever owns them

Umm Oro… please forgive me. This is my first attempt at a fanfic. Yes I know barely anybody reads RW fanfictions anymore, but this has been on my computer for ages and I only got 2 chapters into the story. I'll be revising the second chapter while this one is getting reviews (hopefully).

Ohh yeah! The character descriptions (yes the original RW are still in it) are at the end of the chapter, so you can get to know who's also going to be in this fic.

Blood Ties

Chapter One

Flames engulfed Ryo as he transformed into the Armor of Inferno. Blackblaze jumped over his shoulders leaving access for him to grab the Swords of Fervor.

"You're mine Dylan." He yelled as he powered up for is sure kill. "RAGE OF INFERNO!!"

The line of fire hit Dylan head on. He screamed in pain as the incredible amount of power went through his body. At almost the last minute he built up a defense. He looked towards Ryo.

"Fine Wildfire, if I go down I'm taking you with me."

With that line Dylan jumped on Ryo and then there was nothing but a big explosion.

"RYO!!! NOOOO!!!" The rest of the Ronins yelled and when the smoke from the explosion cleared, both Ryo and Dylan were gone...



"NO!!!" Delphyne screamed as she awoke from her nightmare.

That dream again. She thought. Why am I having it again?

She drew her knees up by her chest and wrapped her arms around them. Ever since her father died she had dreams about him dying over and over again. And they all started when she discovered she had the Armor of Wildfire.

There was a knock on the door that brought her out of her thoughts.

"Come in." She called.

The door opened and a man with blue hair and eyes came in. The man gave her a huge grin.

"Good morning Delphyne. I just wanted to make sure you're awake."

Delphyne smiled at her Uncle Rowen. She knew that ever since that unfaithful day Rowen never slept like he used to, just like her.

"I'm awake Uncle Rowen."

Rowen frowned at her smile.

"You had that dream again, didn't you?"

Delphyne's smile faded and looked down at her knees, nodding. Rowen came over and sat next to her on the bed and pushed some of her long hair back out off her face.

"It's been five years and you're still having that dream. You're the only one who has it and you weren't even there."

"I don't know Uncle Rowen. I think that the Armor of Wildfire is trying to tell me something, but I don't know what it is." She said with out even looking up at him.

"I don't know either, but whatever it is we'll all find out together." Rowen said putting on a smile. "Come on there waiting for us downstairs."

Delphyne smiled again, and Rowen smiled right back. He then left the room and Delphyne quickly got dressed putting her long Black/brown hair into its usual braid. She went downstairs to find everybody in the dinning room. She took her seat and grabbed some breakfast before her Uncle Kento got it.

After breakfast everybody went his or her own way. The Ronins sat in the living room, their wives went shopping, and their children went outside. Delphyne sat on the grass petting Whiteblaze, and looked at the others. She saw Rasami and Bow fighting, as usual. Raiker practicing his meditation skills his father taught him, but she did not find Kasha and Lair. She figured they went on a walk. She looked back at Whiteblaze, who was enjoying the attention she was giving him.

"Ohh Whiteblaze, what is the Armor of Wildfire trying to tell me? My guess it wants me to see something in the dream, but all I see is the same thing over again."

Whiteblaze rubbed his head against her and licked her face, as if saying, "It's going to be alright". Delphyne smiled at Whiteblaze.

"I guess you don't like to remember what happened either, do you Whitblaze?"

Just then Mia's Jeep pulled up to the house. Mia waved at her as she got out of the Jeep. Her mother and the rest of her Aunts grabbed the bags and walked up to the house.

"Hello Delphyne!" Mia said

"Hi mom! So what did you guys get?"

"Ohh little bit of everything" said her Aunt Akira, as Sage grabbed the bags from her and kissed her on the cheek.

Mia saw the kiss and look of sadness washed over her face, but quickly hid it. Delphyne saw the look and put a hand on her mother's shoulder. Mia gave her a small smile and went into the house. Delphyne watched her mother go inside and gave her a worried look. She knew her mother was really shaken up when she heard that Ryo was dead. She showed it for the first few months after his death. But soon she was out of the depression and decided to be strong for her daughter. Then later she learned that Delphyne was the next in line for the Armor of Wildfire, she flipped out. She didn't want Delphyne to fight, but Delphyne changed her mind somehow.

Delphyne shook her head and walked toward the lake, to find Rasami and Bow, sitting on the shore, not fighting.

"Hey guys have you seen Kasha and Lair?"

"Yeah! I think they went for a walk" Said Rasami turning his head towards her.

"Thanks" She said and went off into the direction she thought was the right way. Rasami watched her walk away and turned back to see a snickering Bow.

"You like her, don't you?" Bow said

"Just what the Hell are you talking about, Bow?"

"You really like her!"

"Who? Delphyne?"

Bow nodded his head yes, eyes sparkling with mischief. Rasami angrily shoved his finger into Bow's chest. "Listen! I love Delphyne as a friend. We grew up together. We all did. Now if you're finished making false assumptions, I'm going to find my sister." He got up and followed Delphyne. "Hey Delphyne wait up! I'll help you find them."

"Yeah right, Rasami. You got it bad " Bow said watching Rasami catch up with Delphyne.

Delphyne stopped and aloud Rasami to catch up with her. They walked in silence for a while and Rasami noticed that Delphyne was worried about something.

"Hey, Delphyne? What's wrong?" He said putting a hand on her shoulder.

"Huh? What? Oh nothin really, just that stupid dream again."

"Ohh I see. Still bothers you, doesn't it?"

Delphyne nodded her head and looked straight ahead.

"You know, Rasami? I think the Armor of Wildfire is trying to tell me something, but I have no idea what. It keeps giving me that dream over and over again, and I don't like it. I hate reliving my father's death."

"I know you do." He said giving her a small smile. They once again turned to silence. He wanted to help her but he didn't know how. The only thing he knew right now was just be her friend, and he intended to stay that way.

The path turned and headed towards the lake, and the minute they turned that corner, they saw Kasha lying on the ground, unconscious.

"Kasha!!" Delphyne yelled and ran to her side, with Rasami at her heels. She held Kasha's head in her lap.

"Kasha can you hear me? Wake up! It's Delphyne."

"She seems to be out cold," said Rasami examining Kasha's head. "But other than that, she'll be ok."

Kasha moaned and opened her eyes. When her vision cleared she saw Delphyne and Rasami.

"Kasha are you ok?" asked Delphyne.

"Yeah I'm fine, but where is La..." Her eyes went wide in fear, as she didn't finish her sentence. "Ohhh no! Lair." She got up, but a little to quickly and got dizzy.

"Kasha what happened?" asked Rasami, catching her.

"Well it happened so fast that all I can remember is some guy in armor attacked us and I don't remember what happened after that."

"Rasami you stay here with Kasha I'm going to find Lair." Delphyne said getting up and ran in the same direction that they were walking before.

"Delphyne wait!" yelled Rasami, but it was already pointless. He let out a sigh and helped Kasha stand up. "Sometimes she can be so stubborn"

"You're telling me." Kasha said leaning on Rasami for support.

Delphyne ran about 1/4 of a mile before she came upon the fight between Lair and a very familiar man in armor. The man basted Lair with a bolt of energy and threw her back into a tree.

"LAIR!!!" screamed Delphyne. The man turned to her and smiled. Delphyne turned her attention from her friend to the man and gasped.

"I know you. You're from my dreams, the one that killed my father."

"Your father?" said the man. He took a minute to check out this girl. Then he figured out who she was. "Ahh yes Wildfire. Such a pity that he died and I didn't."

Anger grew inside Delphyne quickly.

"You'll pay for killing him. You murderer." Delphyne quickly transformed into subarmor, and stood in a battle stance. The man laughed at her.

"I knew you were the heir of Wildfire. That's why I came, to get you out of the way."

"We'll see about that, Dylan."

"Hmm so you do know my name, interesting." Dylan smile grew wider. "Well, Wildfire, time to take of you, just like I did with your father. Now if you will put on your armor, if you know how to use it."

"I know how to use it you creep! ARMOR OF WILDFIRE, TAO JIN!!!!" In a flash she was in her armor. She took out her twin katanas and once again took a battle stance.

Dylan smiled then and attacked first with his sword. Delphyne met his sword in midair. Dylan jumped from her onto a tree branch and powered up for is sure kill.

"DEATH PLASMA BLASTER!!"

Delphyne threw herself onto the ground, out of the way and looked up to find Lair, in her armor, attacking Dylan with all her might. Delphyne then got up and watched the fight. Lair met his sword each time he attacked her. With his last thrust, she felt like she was burning from the inside out. She looked up at Dylan, to find him smiling. The pain inside her increased and she screamed as she fell to the ground unconscious.

Delphyne screamed Lair's name and watched her fall to the ground, unmoving. She rushed to her friend's side, screaming for her wake up, while shaking her. But it was useless; Lair would not just wake up. Delphyne cried as she held her friend.

Dylan just laughed.

"This is why women should never fight. They're to weak!"

With his words, Delphyne's temper flew. She gently laid down Lair's limp body and attacked him with all her strength. She let out her anger on him, each attack more powerful than the last. Eventually Dylan got tired of playing with this little wench and took her down with one blow.

"You should never extend that much energy into your attacks. I hope you learn this lessen in the near future."

Dylan then closed his eyes and said an ancient chant. Opening his eyes, he smiled and then sent a flash of light at the daughter of Wildfire. Delphyne knew she could not dodge it and let the light hit her. She knew nothing more as her world turned to darkness.

Tbc.

I'll describe Dylan later in the story
