Earth: Toyama, Japan.

"Man, I forgot how much I hate homework." Kento complained. He was sitting at the coffee table, obviously doing his homework. Sage was reading out of his Social Studies book in the recliner, Ryo was working on his math, laying on the couch.

Cye and Rowen had finished their homework and doing other things. The warlords were talking about Donovon and Faye and Audi were in their room.

"Kento, we know you hate homework. You've been complaining since we got home, half an hour ago. It won't get done if you just stare and complain about it." Sage said, bored. He absently wrote down an answer.

"But Sage! I need help! I'm gonna go get Rowen. He would help." Kento got up and walked into the kitchen. Sage glanced up when he heard Rowen shriek. Kento calmly walked out of the kitchen with Rowen on his shoulder.

"KENTO PUT ME DOWN OR I'LL PUT ON MY ARMOR AND KICK YOUR BUTT INTO OUTER SPACE! KENTO! NO PUT ME DOWN! NOOOOOO! DON'T TICKLE ME!!" Rowen screamed. Kento dropped Rowen on to the floor. Then sat on him.

"Alright Rowen, what's the answer to number one?" Kento asked, as if nothing was wrong. Faye came down with Sunrise on her shoulder.

"Kento! Get off him." she walked over and shoved him off. "Kento you could have squashed him!" she helped Rowen up and shook her head trying to hide her smile. She looked up and her smile disappeared. Her breath caught in her throat as she felt it again.

"Faye? Are you alright?" Sage shook her shoulder gently. She kept staring out the window. The evil feeling vanished and she snapped out of it. She looked at everyone in the room. They were all watching her.

"I need to go rest. I guess I wasn't 100% better from yesterday." she said, making up an excuse. Sage nodded and she went upstairs. Audi met her upstairs and they both nodded. Audi went downstairs and Faye went into their room.

"Guys? I need to talk to you." Audi said when she went into the living room. They all looked up at her. She took a deep breath and began.

"Faye and I felt something after school, we saw three people staring at us and then Faye started acting weird. She looked at them and then wouldn't speak to me for a few minutes. Her eyes weren't focused and she was breathing funny. Then she snapped out of it. I've seen her like this a few times before. Remember when she was gonna give Ryo a noogie? Well her eyes weren't focused then, and when Kayra was telling us about our armors her eyes weren't focused either. I think something's wrong with her. Can you guys kinda talk to her or something?" Audi said. They let this all sink in. Then they all looked at Anubis.

"What?" he asked. He sighed and got up. He walked up the stairs and to their room. He knocked on the door and opened it. Faye was laying on her bed, playing with Sunrise. She glanced up at him as he sat down on the bed.

"What do you want Allon? I mean Anubis." Faye corrected herself. Anubis smiled at her and petted Sunrise.

"Faye, please tell me, about what happens when your eyes become, you know, unfocused." he whispered. Faye looked at him and her smile vanished.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Faye answered. She looked at the door behind him and waved her hand. It closed and locked itself.

"Fiona." Anubis said shortly. Faye looked at him, startled. She looked down but he caught a glimpse of a tear.

"I don't know what they are. You can call them preminitions, visions, whatever. I honestly don't know." she said. Anubis blinked but then lifted her chin. She watched him study her face.

"Faye, I'm glad that you told me. But you have to tell us when they come. They could help us against the evil." he explained. Faye looked down and nodded.

"The first one was when I was about to give Ryo his noogie," she smiled at the memory, "everything was in black and white. I was in a forest and the birds were all frightened and flying away. The ground was shaking and that was it. The next one was when Kayura was telling us about our armors. It was the Ancient One's village. That was when I first learned about my grandfather. He usually comes by to check up on me. He's the one who gave me the idea for my prank. Then, today after school I had another one. This one literally scared me half to death." Faye hugged her knees to her chest.

"What do you mean?" Anubis asked softly. Faye looked at him and described her latest vision.

"All of us were wearing our armor. Then, three people in armor appeared in front of us. The first one was a women, Birkita of Seduction. There were twin brothers, one was Blaine of the armor of the Dark Sun. His brother was Armande of the Dark Star." she said. Anubis looked shocked at the names.

"So, Donovon recruited them huh?" he thought out loud. Faye looked at him confused, then an overpowering sense of evil shrouded her mind. She shrieked and stood up, she held her head as someone began whispering to her.

Come with me. You can be great, you can have power. Join me, my sister, it whispered, destroy the ronins and kill the traitors. Audi has already turned to me, now it's your turn. Join me, or face the consequences.

"No! Audi!" Faye ran downstairs with Anubis calling her. She jumped the stairs and her subarmor appeared. She ran outside to see the guys fighting demons. Audi was fighting against Armande, Cale and Dais were against Blaine, and Sekhment and Kayra were against Birkita. "ARMOR OF SUNRISE!" Faye transformed and her special attack flowed from her lips.

"HEAVEN'S FURY UNLEASHED!" it sped and hit Blaine. He growled and turned to her. His eyes widened at her as she let her anger take control.

"You!" he whispered before she was attacking him. She let loose her fury on him, he had to teleport away to survive. The others teleported away too. Faye ran to Audi and hugged.

"That voice..." she mumbled. Audi nodded and helped her back into the house.
