Chapter 2: Vision or just a dream?

A few moments later at the Koji Manor ..... "So the armor of Cruelty is gone to another bearer? But how I thought the armors could only change bearers if the current bearer dies." Ryo said. "Yes but I think there is someone else that can bear the armor, I am the Anicent so I was not turely meant to bear the armor. But there is someone else that can and who ever it is now has the armor." Kayura said. "Do we have any idea who it may be?" Sage asked, Kayura shook her head. "No, I will see what I can find out from the staff though. Mia see if there is anything on your files that might help." Kayura said, Mia nodded. "I'll see what I can do."

Suddenly the house shook knocking some people right off their feet. "Ronins! Come out and fight!" The Ronins garbed their armor orbs and was outside in a mintue, they saw a warlord in black armor standing on the roof of the house. "You want a fight Warlord well you got one!" Kento said.

"Ronins to Arms! Armor of Wildfire! Toa Jin!" "Armor of Halo! Tao Chi!" "Armor of Torrent! Toa Shin!" "Armor of Hardrock! Tao Gil!" "Armor of Strata! Toa Inchioa!" "Seasonals to Arms! Armor of Illusion!" "Armor of Vemon!" "Armor of Darkness!" All eight disappered in a blinding flash of light and reappered in full battle armor.

"So these are the mighty Ronins." The one in black armor snickered, seeing the emenies of his master, the Ronin Warriors. The eight Ronins stare out from their armor's vivsor each armor was diffrent in build and color. "So we got us new warlords." Ryo in the armor of Wildfire said.

"Yes Wildfire. We are the new Dynasty's warlords. I am their leader, Scar of Thunder." That is when Ryo noticed three other dark shadows standing close to the Warlord. They identified themselves one at a time. "I am Yvonne," A female voice said. "I am the Warlord of Mist." "I am Tyler, Warlord of Tusnimia." said a second voice. "And I am Darco, Warlord of Lighting." came the final voice.

Talk about dajivu. In the same way the Seasonals did two years ago. Ryo thought to himself. "Well now that we are introduced," Kento said under his breath. "Lets kicked thier butts." Scar laughed. "You think you can defeat us Ronins?" "Why don't you come down here and we'll see." Ryo challaged. "Wacth your mouth boy, you may have bitten off more then you can chew!" With that the warlords joined the Ronins on the ground.

But suddenly, a squad of Dynasty soldiers appeared, but there was something different about this soldiers, their armor was gary instead of green and thicker. "We brought a few friends along Ronins. Attack!" At Scar's command the soldiers rushed the Ronins. Each member of the team immediately began to attack the soldiers in their own unique way: Most with swords or with other weapons.

Suddenly as they finished off the soldiers they found the warlords gone, then heard Scar speak: "Well done Ronins. But you won't be able to save the girl again Seasonals, the bearer of Cruelty will serve the Dynasty as the last did." He hissed as he suddenly disappered. "Save the girl again? What did he mean by that?" Kento asked the three Seasonals as he and the others powered down. "We don't know." Dais said.

Meanwhile across town .... A fifteen year old girl streached the muscles in her arms gingerly after getting home from an intense training session with her sensi. Mona stood at a height of 5'4, she was a slender figure with an average build from her daily workout and lighty tan skin from being outside all day. Her pale blue eyes was as sharp and clear and her red - brown hair was held back in a ponytail that reached to the middle of her back.

Mona walked into the kicten and found a note of the table from her adopted mother, she shook her head after reading it. "Gone out again." She said to herself in disgust as she headed into her room, Mona snapped the lights on and locking her door reached under her bed. She pulled out what appered to be a large marble with the anicent symbol of loyalty on it. Mona looked at the object in her hands.

I wonder, why this thing suddenly showed up and for that matter I wonder what is it! She thought to herself, she found the thing earlier today before training with her sensi, she and her friend had been playing some friendly pranks on her friend's brother but when she got caught alone Mona kept her mouth shut about who played the pranks with her because she wasn't about to rat out on her friend. When only a few moments after getting away from her friend's brother she found the orb thing.

Mona put the orb on her bed stand and flopped on the bed staring at the cleing over her head trying to think. I don't unstand. Give me a sign, a hint. Anything! She thought but suddenly she felt very tried and dowrsy and that was the last thing she remembered.

..... Anubis fell knees in pain; Seckmeht and Cale held his arms behind his back looking like they were trying to pop them from the sockets. Then Dais grabbed a fistful of Anubis's hair and pulled his head up hard. Talpa spoke then. "Do not waste much time with him," said Talpa. "He's sided with the Ancient of the Ronin Warriors. He is lost to us." "I do not understand." Dais said. Talpa laughed. "Don't worry," he said darkly. "Luck is with you, Anubis. That monk is protecting you. You said you would not come back to the Dynasty, but I cannot give you to the Ancient One, now, can I?"

"You lie! It's just my armor that you want!" Anubis yelled as the three applied more pressure to his pain raked body. "How could you believe their lies?" Dais shouted, digging his elbow into Anubis's spine. "It's the truth!" Anubis cried out. "If you will see for yourself!" "Hate me if you wish," said Talpa, "but you cannot abandon me no matter what you think. The armor does not exist for you - it is you who lives for the armor and for me. Do not forget that." He said.

"We are all prisoners of his darkness. Your life is the same as mine." Anubis said despartated to get to his comrades. "You lie!" Cale bent Anubis's arm harder. Seckmeht did the same. "Anubis, what's become of you?" He asked Anubis but he remained silent aside from a groan of pure pain. "Throw him into the dungeon!" Talpa bellowed his order. Suddenly .....

" .... the baby girl without a chance, the victim of the crimstance. The one that should give up but she just too hard head ...." Mona opened her eyes hearing the song I'm a Survivor playing on her radio. "Ugh, I must have fallen alseep." She said, shaking her head hard to clear it.

Her ribs, spine and arms was about to kill her with pain and with a start Mona realized that was the same places the red haired man in her dream was hurt. Ok, I asked for anything and I got something but it still doesn't make sense. She said and changing into some faded blue jeans and a red tee shirt.

She qiuckly pulled on her brown hiking boots and a cap to pin her hair up in making sure she had the orb with her. She wrote a qiuck note to her mother she headed outside to go for a walk. I've had weird dreams before but I wonder was it just a dream? Or something else? She thought to herself.
