It had been a month since Sakura had started her training to beat the Ronin warriors.  She had made much progress and her father was especially pleased.

"Sakura," her father said as he walked into the training room. Sakura smiled, he was actually in his human form today. 

"It is time for you to start training with your full armor," her father announced. Sakura stopped mid attack.

"What? I get to actually wear the real battle armor?" Sakura asked stunned.  Even though Sakura had known that she possessed one of the ten armors, her father had for some reason never let her train in anything but her sub-armor.

"This is so awesome!" Sakura thought, 'my armor.' 

"First, you need to know some things about it." Talpa informed her.  "Each armor is powered by some kind of character trait that is strongest in them.  Each armor also allows the bearer to control something, to some extent, and has a certain state that it performs best in.

Sakura knew all of this already from learning about the Ronin warriors.  She could tell anyone who asked, who owned which armor, what it controlled, and which state it was strongest in and which character trait powered their armor. 

"Your armor, Sakura," her father continued "is no different. Your armor allows you to control something."

"What about all of your armors?" Sakura questioned the other warlords, who had gathered behind Talpa.  She knew about the Ronins, but she realized she didn't know theirs. 

"My armor is the armor of Cruelty." Anubis said, "Powered by the trait of loyalty."  The others went around and told Sakura of their armors. Cale was the warlord of Darkness and allowed him to control darkness to some extent, and was powered by the trait of Obedience; Dais was the warlord of Illusions and could make people see things that weren't there, and was powered by the trait of Serenity; and Sekhmet was warlord of Venom and was a poisons master, and powered by

Piety.

"What about mine?" Sakura wanted to know, anticipation growing.

"You are Sakura, the warlord of Hate" Talpa told her. "Powered by the trait of Love." Talpa finished spitting out the word love as if it was a terrible disease.  "You will soon learn on your own what you can control, we can not tell you, and it must be learned on your own."

"That wouldn't be my magic, would it?" Sakura guessed.

 "No, that is just an inherited gene from your mother." Talpa told her.

"How do I go about finding it?" Sakura questioned.

"Just one day, you'll know." Cale said. "At least that's how it worked for us."

"But first, let's see what your actual armor looks like." Anubis said. Sakura was more the ready to try, she had been wondering what it looked like as she summoned her armor. When she was done, she observed her reflection in the mirror. It was different from the others, that much was obvious. It looked like her armor was made to be worn by a female. She wore a golden chest plate that matched the pieces of armor around her arms and legs. This allowed her more freedom of movement that the others had. Her helmet slightly resembled a cat's face and went over her head with a small visor that covered her eyes but still allowed her to see out. The gold of the armor matched her eyes and set off her cyan colored hair. Talpa smiled,
 "And now it begins."

So Sakura trained, learning all there was to know about her armor.  She soon found out what her armor gave her control over, wind.  She was a master of wind, able to manipulate it to do many things, even allow her to fly to an extent. She couldn't create the wind, merely control it. So she had to be careful, if the wind stopped while she was in the air, she better hope that she was near the ground. 

"Well done," Anubis congratulated one day after a successful lesson, "You'll be able to fight the Ronin warriors with us in no time."

"Anubis, why hasn't father let me fight them before?"  Sakura asked.  It had been a question that weighed heavily on her mind for a while now.

"Well," Anubis thought. "Probably because you're his daughter." Anubis answered.

"His daughter," Sakura said confused. "Why would that have anything to do with it?"

"He wants to keep you as safe as possible, because even though he doesn't always show it, your father does care about your safety."

Sakura smiled, "Yeah, I guess he does."

A few days later Dais entered the training room where Sakura was practicing her sword techniques with Cale.  The sword was easily becoming her favorite and most skilled weapon to fight with.

"Sakura," Dais called. "Master Talpa requests us in the throne room."

"The throne room," Sakura questioned. "What does he want us there for?"

"I think it has something to do with the Ronin warriors." Dais replied.

Dais and Sakura headed toward the throne room wondering what Talpa could want. The two entered the throne room as everyone else looked at them as they entered. Sakura noticed the giant screen next to her father's giant floating head and on the screen was the Ronins. As soon as she entered the room, the warlords vanished and she saw then on the screen, fighting the Ronins. Sakura stood next to her father as she watched them fight, and while they had the upper hand for a while, they slowly began to start to lose. Talpa watched as his eyes narrowed, he turned to Sakura and gave a nod. Sakura knew what he wanted her to do. A light breeze came in through a high window as Sakura gathered it around her and created a tiny tornado in her hands. The crystal around her neck glowed, illuminating her face with a blue light as she magically sent the tornado to where the Ronins and Warlords were fighting. Sakura's tornado sucked up the Ronins flinging them far a wide from each other as Talpa looked down at his daughter and smiled in approval.

A.N. - Ok, just for future reference, I'm going to be tweaking the time line a little of the anime to fit the story. I can add more chapters this way, so if something happens in the wrong order, I am sorry. It's been a long time since I actually saw the anime and right now I am going on an episode guide that I have. So, I hope you enjoy it nonetheless and I will update my other stories ASAP. Keep reviewing.
