The masked men charged at Kyle and the others and everyone began to fight as keyran and pyro watched.

"This should be interesting" pyro said to keyran.

"Yes it will" keyran replied.

The masked men weren't proving a problem for Kyle and Yoh. But Wesley and Mariah weren't finding it as easy.

"Mariah lookout" Wesley yelled.

One of the masked men came up behind Mariah and grabbed her.

"Hang on sis" Wesley said.

Wesley tried to help his sister but another masked man knocked Wesley to the ground.

"Wesley" Mariah shouted.

Kyle heard Mariah's shout and could see Mariah being held and Wesley on the ground with a masked man walking up to him ready to finish him off. Kyle knew he had to do something fast.

"Hang on guys" Kyle yelled.

Kyle powered up and used the kaoken attack to increase his speed and strength. Kyle quickly took down the man heading towards Wesley and freed Mariah. Kyle and Mariah walked up to Wesley.

"You ok wess" Mariah asked.

Wesley nodded.

"Yeah" he replied.

Wesley turned to Kyle.

"Thanks Kyle" Wesley said.

"Anytime" Kyle replied.

Meanwhile Yoh was making sure Jordan was safe.

"Stay close" Yoh said.

Jordan nodded. The masked men were proving no match for Yoh but one of the men grabbed Jordan.

"Jordan duck" Yoh yelled.

Jordan ducked and Yoh kicked the masked man in the face knocking him to the ground.

"Thanks Yoh" Jordan said.

As everyone continued to fight Yoh rejoined Kyle and the others and together they were starting to win.

"They're not doing too bad are they" pyro said.

"Shall we join in" keyran asked.

"Lead the way" pyro replied.

Kyle Yoh and the others had now taken most of the masked men down. But then pyro appeared.

"Nicely done" pyro said.

Pyro walked closer.

"I guess we underestimated you. Well now its time for my fun" pyro added.

"Do you really think you can take all of us on?" Yoh asked.

"You better watch what you say kid" pyro replied.

A ball of fire appeared in one of pyro's palms.

"You might get burnt" pyro added.

Pyro threw the ball of fire at Kyle and the others.

"Scatter" Kyle yelled.

The ball of fire exploded on the ground sending Kyle and the others in different directions and the remaining masked men attacked. Kyle took two of the men down but then keyran appeared and knocked Kyle down.

"You should always watch your back Kyle" keyran said.

Kyle got up and turned to keyran.

"I don't know what's going on with you keyran. But I will fight you if I have to" Kyle said.

"Then lets get down to it shall we" keyran replied.

Keyran and Kyle began to fight. Meanwhile Yoh and the others had finished off the last of the masked men. But now they had pyro to deal with. Pyro threw another fireball at them splitting them up.

"Now the fun really begins," pyro said.

Pyro charged at Wesley and attacked sending Wesley crashing though a door.

"Wesley" Mariah yelled.

Mariah ran up to pyro and tried to punch him but pyro knocked her to the ground.

"And now for the girl" pyro said.

Pyro turned to Jordan and threw another fireball at her.

"Jordan lookout" Yoh yelled.

Yoh pushed Jordan out of the way as the fireball hit the ground sending Yoh to the ground.

"Now it's time to end this" pyro said.

Pyro was about to finish everyone off when someone sent him crashing into a wall. It was wu long.

"Wu long" Yoh said.

"Hey Yoh. Looks like you guys need a hand" wu long replied.

Pyro got up and turned to wu long.

"Well if it isn't wu long it's been a while" pyro said.

"It has. I see your still working for the sorceress" wu long replied.

Pyro nodded.

"Sure am. And I see you've met some new friends" pyro added.

"What's it to you" wu long snapped.

"Oh nothing. It's just that your new friends will soon be in our hands" pyro added.

Pyro threw a fireball at wu long, which caused a bright flash, which allowed pyro to disappear.

"He's gone," Yoh said.

"Oh he'll be back" wu long said.

Wu long helped Kyle up.

"We best get out of here" wu long added.

"What about Kyle" Yoh asked.

"Don't worry about Kyle he can handle himself" wu long replied.

Kyle and keyran continued there fight and both seemed pretty even.

"I see you've improved traitor," Kyle said.

"How does it feel having a friend turn on you" keyran asked.

Kyle remained silent.

"Now you know how Mariah and the others felt when you betrayed them," keyran continued.

Keyran went for Kyle. Kyle dodged the attack but keyran then kicked Kyle around the head sending him to the ground. Blood began to pour from Kyle's forehead.

"Oh that's a nasty cut you've got there" keyran mocked.

Kyle got up and wiped the blood from his forehead.

"I don't care what you try keyran I'm still going to win this fight," Kyle told him.

Kyle charged at keyran and punched him in the face sending him to the ground.

"Nice move" keyran said.

Keyran got up and turned to Kyle.

"You haven't seen anything yet," Kyle said.

Kyle and keyran continued to fight but soon Kyle gained the advantage.

"Give up keyran you can't win" Kyle told him.

"I'll show you" keyran replied.

Keyran charged at Kyle and attacked. Kyle dodged the attack and sent keyran to the ground.

"It's over keyran," Kyle said.

"I'll never give up" keyran replied.

Keyran stood up and got ready to attack.

"That's enough keyran"

Kyle and keyran turned to see pyro.

"Our plan has failed we must return to the sorceress" pyro said.

"We'll meet again" keyran told Kyle.

Keyran and pyro left.

"I'll be waiting keyran," Kyle said to himself.

To be continued.
