Part 3

When Sage woke up he went downstairs and was shocked to see Rowen up.

" Ok who are you an what did you do with Rowen?" he said.

" HA ha ha very funny Sage. I couldn't sleep so I got some coffee." Rowen said very unhappy.

When Cye came down he did the samething Sage did, but with another phrase added to it. " Rowen do you know what time it is?" Cye asked.

" Sure I do." Rowen said, " it is only the crack of down"

" That's my point" Cye said, " you get up between 11 a.m. an noon."

" Yeah so I couldn't sleep whats the big deal?" Rowen said starting to get annoyed by their actions.

Seeing that their friend didn't have a goodnights sleep they stopped with the questions. Glad that they stopped with the questions he went an got dressed an came down with a book. Kento woke to the smell of food

" Hey Sage. Hey Cye. Hey Rowen." Kento said not caring that Rowen was up an it was only 9 a.m.

Ryo came running down the steps with Whiteblaze chasing him. He didn't bother to say anything he just ran out the house rolling on the floor with Whiteblaze jumping on him. When Cye called him I for breakfast he was being sat on by the large tiger.

Everybody at the table stared at Ryo as he wolfed down his food which was going faster than Kento.

" Hey Ryo are you ok?" Mia asked.

" Yeah I'm fine. Why?" He asked noting that everyone was staring at him.

After he left to go play with Whiteblaze when Rowen spoke up.

" All right hes hyper, who gave him the happy crack?"

With the last few words said everyone started laughing.

" Don't ha ha ha ..let ha ha ha..Ryo ha ha ha...hear ha ha ha...that ha ha ha.." Sage said between fits of laughter.

When Rowen went quite all of a sudden Kento asked if he was all right.

" Don't worry buddy I'm fine." Rowen said putting on a fake smile.

Kento bought the smile ,but deep down he knew something was wrong.

As the day went by Rowen's mind was working nonstop. He was trying to figure if the shadow he saw an the dream he had have anything in common.

' It doesn't make since' he told himself,'what does it mean? Does it mean Talpas back? No we took care of him for good'.

Unknowing to him he was being watched by 10 pairs of eyes. Cye, Kento, Sage, Ryo, an even Whiteblaze were watching Rowen.

As they were walking back to the house Ryo spoke up.

"Something is bothering Rowen an we need to find out fast."

" We know but HOW is the question." Kento said

" I know I'll ask him before he goes to bed tonight." Sage told them.

With that said an done they all spilt up an did what ever needed done.

*~*Later that night*~*

Everybody was going to bed. Cye an Kento into their room, Mia into her room. Ryo an Whiteblaze into the room they shared with Yulie when he was over. Sage an Rowen walked into their room. As they were getting ready for bed Sage asked his question.

" Hey Rowen me an the guys are worried about you. Whats wrong?"

"Look Sage I thank you guys for worrying about me but nothing is wrong. I'm totally fine." Rowen answered his friend with a smile.

" Ok Rowen, but if something is wrong give me your word that you'll tell us." Sage said

" My friend if anything is wrong you will be the first to know." Rowen told him. With that little chat done the two fell asleep.

Little did the Ronin Warriors Know that someone within the shadows was watching them.

" That's right you brats. Keep thinking that you can rest." Said an evil voice.

" M'lord when will we attack the ronins?" a new voice asked.

" Soon my loyal servant soon. Then we'll take back what is rightfully mine."

" My lord we will stand by your side to the very end." A 3rd voice said.

" It is an honor to fight in your name my lord." A 4th spoke.

All of a sudden two red eyes glowed an then a floating head was seen. " They will pay for attacking me." The voice said

The owner of this voice was Talpa.
