The Ronin Goonies
Chapter Nine:
The End
"Outside! All of you!" Sekhmet barked at them gun still pointed at them.
"I think we can take them. Can't be that many bullets left." Ryo said picking up a jewel-studded dagger. Rowen elbowed him in the ribs.
"Don't be stupid Ryo. Just do as he says." Rowen snapped as he and Sage walked out of the room. Cye followed with a reluctant Ryo. Mia and Kayura came out from behind the corners, each wearing large amounts of jewelry.
"I love that!" They said to each other. Mia had on a diamond-studded tiara and Kayura had on a red and gold plated necklace.
"This isn't a fashion show ladies. Move it!" Sekhmet snapped. The girls shriek and run out of the room. The three Masho brothers made the teens line up on the deck.
"Alright you little brats. Empty your pockets!" Dais ordered. He had a saber in one and a small dagger in the other. Kale on the other hand just stood there with a dazed look on his face.
"What!" Ryo yelled. "No way this is our treasure. Get your own!" Sekhmet growled and grabbed Ryo by the hair and put the gun to his face.
"Do as he says or this kid gets it." Sekhmet snarled making the gun click. Soon all the kids where empting all their pockets and dropping gold coins and jewels onto the floor. Cye opened Ryo's backpack and emptied it. "Now that's more like it."
"Let him go you mean old pirate!" Kayura snapped at him as she removed the necklace and placed it on the floor.
"A pirate am I?" Sekhmet grinned evilly. "You wanna play pirates girl? Okay we'll play pirates. Dais, tie her up." Kayura screamed as Dais grabbed her and started tying her hands behind her back. Sekhmet shoved Ryo with the others and grabbed a sword of his own.
"How about you walk the plank?" He said poking Kayura with the sword. Rowen made a move to tackle Sekhmet but Dais got in his face with the saber.
"Don't be a hero kid." He warned Rowen.
"Don't please! I can't swim with my hands tied!" Kayura pleaded as Sekhmet pushed her backwards onto the plank. Sekhmet laughed and took a swipe at her. Kayura screamed and fell backwards into the water.
"Kayura!" Rowen yelled shoving Dais aside and running past Sekhmet diving into the water. While they were distracted Sage tackled Dais to the floor. Ryo made to kick Kale in the crotch again however Kale fell to his knees.
"FOR THE LOVE MIKE NOT THE CROTCH!" He shrieked in the girly voice. Ryo shrugged.
"Okay." He said then kicked Kale in the face. Sekhmet growled and pointed the gun at Ryo. Cye picked up a broken spear and threw it at Sekhmet before he could shoot. The spear knocked the gun out of his hand, and it fell down a hole.
Sekhmet winced in pain, the spear had sliced his hand open and it started bleeding slightly. He glared daggers at the young boy and stalked over to him. Cye stumbled backwards and yelped when Sekhmet grabbed him by the neck and lifted him into the air.
"You die first you little brat!" He threatened. Mia and Sage stopped struggling with Dais when they heard him.
"No don't he's just a kid!" Mia shrieked. Ryo went to tackle Sekhmet but Kale grabbed him from behind. Dais grabbed the two other teens and tied them together.
"What are you gonna do with him Sekhmet?" Dais asked grinning as he finished tying Mia and Sage together.
"Let's stringing him up boys." Sekhmet snarled throwing Cye to the ground and picking up some rope. He went over and placed a boot on Cye's back to keep him from moving.
"No you can't do that!" Ryo yelled still struggling with Kale. Sekhmet finished making a noose and wrapped it around Cye's neck. He threw the rope over the sail and started pulling. Cye was jerked up to his feet as the rope tightened around his neck. Sekhmet laughed as the boy was struggling. He pulled the rope some more and Cye's feet could barely touch the ground. The others were horrified as what they were watching.
Ryo was trying desperately to get out of Kale's hold, but Kale managed to keep him from breaking free. Mia was crying, begging Sekhmet to stop and Sage was screaming.
"ROWEN! Get up here quick!" Sage screamed. "He's killing Cye!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rowen swam underwater desperately looking for Kayura. He soon saw her sinking to the bottom. He swam as fast as he could towards her, his breath quickly running out. Once he got a hold of her he started kicking up to the surface as fast as he could.
Kayura opened her eyes as she felt someone grab her and pull her up. When she reached the surface she gasped spitting out water and taking long deep breaths. She looked up at her savoir.
"You okay?" Rowen asked between breathes as he untied her hands. Kayura nodded still trying to catch her breath.
"You…you saved me." She said once her hands were untied. Before Rowen could say anything Kayura wrapped her arms around his neck and started kissing him. Rowen didn't complain as he started kissing back but was surprised when she suddenly pulled back and gave him a funny look.
"What?" He asked.
"Rowen, what happened to your retainer?" Kayura asked. Rowen shook his head confused.
"I don't wear a retainer. Cye wears a…" He stopped when she noticed that she was blushing. "Wait, back at the cave. Did you two?" By then she was beet red.
"Oops." She giggled.
"Man I can't believe he did that." Rowen groaned. He went in for another kiss but was cut off when he heard Sage yelling.
"ROWEN! Get up here quick! He's killing Cye!"
"Wha…" Rowen looked back up at the ship and to his horror he saw Cye dangling in midair with a rope around his neck. "Oh my god… CYE!" Rowen started swimming back to the ship.
Sekhmet was laughing as he watch the boy struggle to breath. "Say goodbye to you friend kids. In a couple of more seconds he'll be dead."
BANG
Everyone jumped when they heard the gun shot. The rope holding Cye was hit by a bullet and broke. Cye fell to the floor in a heap. Ryo elbowed Kale in the ribs while he was distracted. Kale choked letting Ryo go.
"Cye! Cye!" Ryo yelled rushing over to his friend and removing the noose around his neck. Cye started coughing and gagging, tears streaming down his face.
"Where'd that shot come from?" Dais asked looking around.
"Up here you scurvy dogs!" A voice came up from above them. Everyone looked up to see Kento and another guy standing on one of the sails. Kento was wearing a pirate hat and held a small dagger. He grabbed a rope and swung down.
"Hee Yai" Kento yelled kicking Dais in the face as he landed on the deck.
"Kento!" Ryo, Mia, and Sage shouted.
"No, Captain Kento!" Kento said with a goofy grin on his face. He quickly cut the ropes that were binding Sage and Mia.
"Anubis! How'd he get out?" Sekhmet growled. Anubis pointed his gun at his older brother.
"YOU JERKS ARE SO DEAD WHEN I GET THROUGH WITH YOU!" Anubis warned as he grabbed a rope and swung down to the deck. "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA OF ALL THE PAIN AND AGONY YOU'VE PUT ME THROUGH FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS!"
Rowen and Kayura climbed back up onto the ship while everyone was staring at Anubis.
"Cye are you okay?" Rowen asked worriedly as he rushed to the younger boy's side.
"I'm okay." Cye said hoarsely still taking deep breaths.
"Come on we need to get out of here." Rowen said helping Cye up.
"But the treasure Rowen. We need to get it back!" Ryo said picking up a sword ready to fight.
"No Ryo we need to get out of here before some one really does get killed. Let's go." Rowen said draping Cye's arm around his neck and helping him to the ladder. Cye wanted to objected but was too weak to do so.
"Everyone, let's get the hell out of here." Kento said then leapt off the plank. "Cowabunga!" Everyone else jumped off the ship leaving the Masho brothers to have a family reunion.
"BECAUSE OF YOU THREE I SPENT TWO YEARS CHAINED IN A DARK BASEMENT WATCHING NOTHING BUT STUPID TALK SHOWS AND RICHARD SIMMONS!" Anubis continued to yell at them.
"Come on Nubie, just give it up. You're too chicken to shoot any of us." Kale taunted as he started towards his younger brother.
BANG
Kale staggered back, blood coming of his right shoulder. "Oh my god he shot me!" He said incredulously before falling backwards.
"AND THEN YOU PUT THAT KID IN THERE WITH ME! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?" Anubis screamed at them making them all shake with fear. "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW ANNOYING THAT KID WAS!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Guys we need to go back for the treasure." Ryo kept insisting as he and the others swam to the nearest rock wall looking for a way out. They could still hear Anubis screaming at the Masho brothers.
"I'm not going back there. He sounds way too pissed off." Kento commented wincing slightly when he heard a gun shot.
"Yeah Kento's right we need to find a way out of here." Rowen said climbing up onto the rocks and searching for a way out. He saw a small light shinning through some large boulders piled together. "I think I found a way out. But it's too dark. Anyone got a light?"
"I have one candle left." Ryo said taking it out and lighting it with his lighter. He frowned when it started sparking instead. "Hey this is a funny candle." Sage paled when he read the word dynamite written on the candle.
"It's dynamite! Ryo get rid of that thing!" Sage yelled. Ryo yelped and tossed the dynamite to Rowen before running back into the water. Rowen tossed the dynamite into the hole and ran back to the water with everyone else.
BOOM
The whole cavern started to shake and fall apart. The dynamite made a hole big enough to crawl through but a large boulder fell in front of it.
"Oh no how are we gonna get out?" Kayura asked worriedly. Kento climbed up to the boulder and started lifting it up.
"Hurry guys I can't hold it for long." He groaned under the strain. Everyone climbed up the rocks and crawled through the hole.
"Kento come on! The whole place is falling apart!" Cye cried out when his friend didn't come out with the rest of them. Kento shoved the boulder as hard as he could and dove into the hole before the boulder could fall on him.
"Boy that was a close one." He said as he and Cye joined the others.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sun was rising and two patrolmen on four wheelers were patrolling the beach when they saw a group of teenagers heading their way. They stopped when they got close enough to see who the teens where.
"Well I'll be damned." One officer said as the teens started running towards them. "Those are the missing kids."
"They weren't here a minute ago." The other officer said shaking his head.
"But they're here now Stan." His partner said pulling out his radio and calling into headquarters.
"Hey Officer Brown, Officer Jones. How's it going?" Kento said when the group of teens came up to them.
"Hello Kento." Both Brown and Jones said in the same tone.
"You guys won't believe was just happened to us." Kento started to tell the cops the whole story. Both of them looked like they wished they were somewhere else.
"Hey Sage?" Mia asked timidly, Sage gave her and odd look. "I just want to thank you for you, saving my life from the octopus." Sage just nodded. Mia twisted her fingers in her hair nervously and continued. "And for you know, everything else that happened back there…in the caves…I really appreciated it and all so I just want to say thank you so…thank you." Her face was blushing by the time she finished. Sage just looked at her for a few seconds before answering.
"Do you wanna go out this Friday?" Sage asked. Mia grinned.
Kayura and Rowen were chatting quietly while Cye and Ryo were throwing rocks in the water, both had sad looks on their faces. "Man all that rich stuff gone." Ryo said sadly.
"Yeah, I can't believe we blew it." Cye frowning tossing a rock in the wave. "We've lost everything." Rowen went up to him clapping him on the shoulder.
"What are you talking about bro?" He asked playfully messing with Cye's hair.
"We failed Rowen. We didn't get the treasure and now our home is going be torn down. We've lost everything." Cye said again getting a little mad at Rowen's reaction. Rowen shook his head.
"Cye, we didn't loose everything." Rowen told him. "We're alive, we have our parents, we're still a family. Nothing will change that. And besides I've learned something from this" Cye looked at him curiously.
"What's that?" He asked. Rowen smirked putting Cye in a headlock giving him a noogie.
"You're not bad for a little brother." Rowen answered before letting him go. Cye looked at him surprised.
"Really?" Cye asked. Rowen nodded but then grabbed Cye by the collar of his shirt and glared at him.
"But if I ever catch you making out with my girlfriend again, I'll kick your ass got it?" Rowen said smirking. Cye nodded then Rowen let him go and walked back over to Kayura.
"So Cye, you made out with Kayura. What was it like?" Ryo asked snickering.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Twenty minutes later and police cars, an ambulance, and a few reporter vans drove down the beach. Worried parents scrambled out of the police cars and ran to their kids.
"Rowen, Cye!" Both boys looked up to see their parents running towards them. They got up and embraced their parents.
"Oh my boys!" Mrs. Mouri-Hasiba cried hugging them both equally tight. "Are you alright?"
While they were talking Ryo saw his grandmother and ran over to her and hugged her. Mia rushed over to her Grandfather when she saw come climb out of a police car. Sage smiled when he saw his parents coming towards them, but then he lost his smile when he saw his sisters were with them. Kayura practically leaped into her father's arms when he came rushing over.
"Kento? Where's my Kento? Where's my baby!" Mama Fuan was wailing as she searched the crowed for her son.
"HI MOM!" Kento shouted from where he was by the patrolman. Kento's mom rushed up and grabbed her son in a bear hug, kissing his cheeks.
"My baby boy's alright! Thank heavens!" Mama Fuan babbled still kissing her son's cheek.
"Aw Ma cut it out! You're embarrassing me!" Kento whined. Everyone had a good laugh, thankful all the kids were safe.
"Hey it's the Masho Brothers!" A reporter said pointing at the four men coming up the beach. The police officers surrounded all four of the brothers. Anubis was carrying the gun and he kept yelling at his brothers who had their hands up, minus Kale who was clutching his wounded shoulder.
"You, drop the gun!" One officer yelled at Anubis.
"What ever, it's not loaded." Anubis shrugged tossing the gun in the sand.
"WHAT!" Sekhmet, Dais, and Kale yelled.
"You mean this whole time it wasn't even loaded!" Dais growled charging at Anubis but was held back by a couple of cops.
"I HOPE THEY THROW THE BOOK AT YOU THREE!" Anubis yelled also being held back by cops.
"Okay you three you're under arrest." The officer said as they handcuffed the three men.
"Hey careful I've been shot!" Kale whined as they left.
"So Anubis now that you're a free man. What are you going to do now?" Kento asked coming up to him. Anubis glared at him.
"Once I make sure my brothers are locked in the deepest darkest cell in all of Toyama. I'm moving as far away from here and you as possible." Anubis said cheerfully. "Las Vegas sounds so nice right now." Everyone laughed.
"Well I guess that's over." Rowen said relieved.
"Not all of it Hashiba!" Bo appeared suddenly with a frown on his face. He was followed by his father Sarenbo and Mr. Banamon. Rowen sneered wanting to hit Bo but his father held him back.
"I've been looking for you Walt. Here are the papers." Sarenbo said shortly handing Rowen and Cye's father some papers and a pen.
"Dad I'm sorry." Cye spoke up sadly. "We found Talpa's treasure. We thought we could save the Ronin Goondocks. But we left it all behind to save our own lives."
"That's okay son, I'm just glad you and your brother are safe here with you mom and me." Mr. Hashiba said.
"Come on Hashiba we don't have all day! There's twenty more house to tear down after yours!" Bo snapped smirking. Rowen made to hit him but Sage came up and held him back both were glaring at the other teen though.
"Cye honey you're freezing, here let's take off your jacket." Mrs. Mouri-Hashiba was talking to Cye while her husband was looking over the papers getting ready to sign them. Everyone was looking pretty down when Mrs. Mouri-Hashiba took Cye's jacket.
"Oh here honey. You left your marbles in your pocket." She said absently handing Cye the marble bag. Cye looked at the bag then up at Rowen.
"Ro." Cye uttered too shock to speak. Rowen and Sage looked at the bag both wide eyed.
"Cye didn't you?" Rowen started to say as Cye tore open the bag and looked in.
"They forgot to check it." Cye said then started to laugh. Rowen took the bag from Cye and looked in.
"I don't believe it!" Rowen said incredulously.
"What are you freaks talking about?" Bo snapped at them confused.
"Mr. Hashiba, don't sign the papers!" Sage said reaching into the bag and pulling out one of the orbs.
"Guys what's going on?" Kayura asked as her and Mia came up to the boys.
"My marble bag. The Masho brothers forgot to check it. I put the Nine Orbs of Virtue in it!" Cye cheered reaching in the bag and pulling out an orb.
"Nine Orbs of Virtue? What kind of game is this? Walt sign those papers now!" Sarenbo ordered.
"No dad, don't sign! The Nine Orbs are worth millions!" Rowen yelled getting everyone's attention. The crowd gathered as the teens and Anubis each pull out an orb.
"What? Those look like regular marbles to me. Quit stalling Walt and sign the papers." Sarenbo said even though he sounded a little nervous.
"No they're real honest." Cye said frantically looking for the symbol inside the orb. He held it up to the light to get a better look. The light shined through the small orb and a light blue kanji symbol appeared in the center. "Look! See! It says, Trust!" The others held their orbs in the light.
"Wisdom." Sage said thoughtfully when the green symbol appeared.
"Life." Rowen said as a dark blue symbol appeared
"Justice." Kento said grinning at the orange symbol.
"Virtue." Ryo said looking at the red symbol with pride.
"Serenity." Kayura said holding up her orb with the pink symbol in it.
"Piety." Mia said once she saw the purple symbol.
"Loyalty." Anubis said thoughtfully when he picked up the orb with the yellow symbol in it.
"And finally Obedience." Mr. Hashiba said holding the last orb. "Well Sarenbo looks like they are the genuine artifact. And since my kids found them the reward money is ours." He took Sarenbo's papers and tore them to pieces and tossed them into the air. Everyone cheered, well except for Sarenbo and his son. The reporters started swarming all over the kids.
"How'd you kids find those orbs?" "How did you escape the Masho brothers?" "Were your lives in danger?" Reporters crammed microphones at the kid's faces.
"The scary part was the giant octopus." Ryo said into one microphone.
"We found the Masho brother's hideout." Mia said into another.
"Yeah and then we found the pirate ship." Rowen talked into another.
"It was the most amazing adventure I ever had!" Kento said loudly.
"Okay everyone clear out." The Sheriff called out with Officer Smith at his side.
"Hey Officer Smith! You gotta hear this!" Kento said excitedly.
Officer Smith groaned. "Kento not another one of your stories please for the love of…holy moly! Look at that!" Everyone turned to see a huge pirate ship immerge from the rocks.
"Ladies and Gentlemen what we are looking at appears to be a pirate ship." One reporter said to the camera amazed. The teens huddled together as they watched the ship sail out of the rocks and into the ocean.
"See ya Talpa!" Ryo waved at the ship.
Silence fell over the crowd as the Inferno sailed into the sunrise.
THE END
