I didn't expect the first chapter to get reviews, honestly. I just thought it would be one of those 'eh' stories that no one reviews on. But I even got a PM asking to update this story! So, gladly, I am right now. For you guys :3

The six teenagers walked out onto a large field, each holding a respective weapon. Blossom held duelblades, one in each hand. Buttercup held onto a large katana, holding it in front of her and grinning. Bubbles had a quiver and a bow, she was checking the string on the bow. While the girls had less modern weapons, the boys turns up with more modern ones. Brick held onto his pirate like sword, grinning as he stared down his new pink friend. Butch gripped two pistols, one in each hand, acting as if he didn't care so much. All the while Boomer held onto a few of his gas bombs. The six of them all wore protective armor that couldn't be penetrated, even if they tried.

A large golden retriever walked onto the field, tail wagging excitedly. This was Goldie, the Resistance's mascot. She had a litter before, which explained the few puppies roaming around. She was also very well trained on when to start training sessions and when to begin. The dog barked once, sitting on his hind legs and posing as if it was begging. She barked twice, going back on all of her paws and turning to leave. Finally, she barked three times and rushed off the field. The boys were confused. Why was the dog barking? It wasn't until an arrow fell beside Boomer that they realized it had begun.

Brick&Blossom

Blossom squinted through her helmet, watching Brick with cautiousness. She didn't have one bit of doubt that he wasn't strong or skilled - but she did doubt him actually beating her. The older man charged at her, like she expected, and she tucked and rolled out of the way. She didn't expect him to turn on his heel so quickly, though, and strike at her. She quickly ducked and and stood up, looking at him dead on. She could tell he was smirking.

The pink-eyed beauty walked to the side, watching him. Brick watched her carefully too, both planning their attacks. Suddenly, Blossom launched forward, her blades held inwards as she aimed her hands for her shoulder so she could do a hand spring. He stumbled backward, though, messing up what would've been a 'kill' and almost messing up her spring. She landed on her feet and glared at him.

Brick rolled his shoulder back and held her sword out to him. "You might want to give up now while you still have the chance!" he warned her, slowly making steps towards her. She easily back-flipped out of the way of his first swing before answering with a quick 'No!'. He chuckled and took a step back. "Then come at me." She obeyed, rushing towards him. He followed her steps with his eyes, taking a step back for every two. He expected for her to swipe at his side again, or try to run around him and get him from behind. But no.

The teenage girl faced him head on. She pushed herself off the ground and launched towards him. She watched his eyes widened through his helmet as he tried to get away, but she already landed on him and pushed him over. She turned and kicked his sword out of his hand, turning back to face him. She used a rag she had around her wrist to hold his hands together, then held both of her blades to his armor-clad throat.

"O-okay." Brick choked out, only because she was crushing his lungs. "You win. Now get off of me." he ordered. She grinned and stood up, allowing him to do the same. The two stood and waited for their siblings to finish.

Boomer&Bubbles

Bubbles scanned the area. Boomer had thrown a bunch of smoke bombs the second the arrow landed beside him, causing her to lose where he was. She searched her surroundings, arrow drawn back in case she had to shoot. She heard footsteps and immediately turned towards them, letting go of the arrow and shooting towards the area. She heard a started gasp and grinned, only to be surprised by a 'beep beep' accelerating. She turned and ran away from where she was taking refuge. She turned to where she was and spotted a mass of a bluish gas, guessing it was sleep-gas. She rolled her eyes and looked around, finding herself nearly submerged in smoke. She coughed and swung her arm around, trying to find a way out.

Boomer watched from off the sidelines. He was wearing a gas-mask that not only shielded him from everything, but allowed him to peer through the gas. He chuckled when she began to stumble into the sleep gas that he set up at the end of the tunnel. Easy! The blonde boy yawned loudly, causing the girl to step back and look towards him again. He let his blue eyes widen as she drew back an arrow and nearly shot him in his face. If he hadn't tipped to the side, he would've lost already. The man abandoned his post and ran off.

Several arrows followed him until he hit a dead end. The short blonde girl walked right up to him and pointed an arrow at his chest, putting on a childish smile. "Do I win already?" she asked, looking up at him. He panicked slightly before feeling yet another gas bomb on his belt. He grinned and shook his head, dropping the bomb and pushing past her. She squeaked as the bomb went off and let out what he guessed what sleep-gas. He watched her from the other smoke cloud as it dwindled. She swatted, and coughed, until she finally fell. He grinned and strode up to her.

"I win." he gloated. He stood up and looked at his brothers and new friends, spotting that Brick and Blossom were on the floor, Blossom obviously winning. He rolled his eyes. He thought his brother was supposed to be the smart one! He shook his head and tried to find Buttercup and Butch. Just as he spotted them, he felt an arm grip his shoulder and the bottom of his helmet shift slightly. He looked back and spotted Bubbled, who was holding a dagger up to his armor-clad throat with a happy grin. He froze, forgetting he had armor on. She easily turned and pushed him up against the cliff nearby.

"Do I win now?" she asked. Boomer gulped and nodded 'yes'. She squealed and released him, allowing him to sigh in defeat.

Butch&Buttercup

Buttercup charged at the green-eyed man, holding her katana to the side. She kept an eye on him at all times, not wanting to lose him. He seemed surprise when he saw her coming at him, lifting both of his pistols and shooting madly at her. The female skillfully turned and twisted her arms so the bullets would bounce off of her weapon. She pounced forward and aimed for his side, surprised to see him hop up and skillfully avoid her action. She frowned and swung at his feet once again. And again, he dodged, but this time did a flip backwards to get away from her.

He shot at her three times. One hit her shin and bounced off the metal plate, another just barely skimmed by her face, and the last was knocked away from her neck by her sword. "You have to do better than that!" Buttercup teased, taking a step back herself. Butch growled and shot around her quiet a few times, but she dodged them all the same. Except for a few that hit her arms and legs. Buttercup yawned as he reloaded his pistols, running towards him at full speed. She swung her blade up while swinging her leg down. Either he got hit in the face or he tripped, she was fine.

Butch squatted down, narrowly missing the blade, but got caught in Buttercup's leg swing and fell backwards. Buttercup quickly knocked the guns out of his hands and held the katana at his throat, grinning. "I thought you were going to be harder to defeat." she gloated, looking up to see her sisters and their competitors watching them. She removed her sword from its spot and raised it high in victory. The girls shook their heads while the boys grinned. What? She looked back down at Butch, who was grinning as well. He swung his leg upwards, connecting with her lower parts. Sure, she was a girl and there was metal plating but still. Anything will hurt for anyone.

Buttercup dropped her katana and fell to her knees, clutching her crotch like a boy would if he was kicked in the balls. "Low blow, man." she growled. "Literally." Butch rolled his eyes and picked up her sword, pointing it towards her.

"Who won now, Butterbabe?" he asked cockily. Buttercup rose back to her feet, Butch keeping the sword pointing towards her throat, and put her hands up in surrender. Suddenly, she lashed forward and ducked under the katana, punching his stomach and side, then giving a powerful kick to his groin. A clatter was heard as he dropped the sword and fell to his knees. Tears welded up in his eyes as he fought the pain. Buttercup, instead of grabbing her katana, grabbed his pistols and pointed them at him.

"I'm pretty sure I did." she growled. She sent him two bullets. One that bounced off of his chest piece, and one that buried itself beside his knee. He looked up at her with admiration, yet anger. The two stayed silent until Goldie came back onto the lawn. She barked three times, tail raised high, then trotted over to Blossom and barked again, announcing the winner of those two. She then stood next to Bubbles and barked again, then trotted over to Buttercup. She observed for a minute before lifting a paw towards Buttercup and barking. The girls either squealed or grinned as they were announced the winners.

"Congrats, girls. And good job, boys." Sarah said as she waved from the side of the field. Beside her was John, Beatrice, a short hairy man, and a tall sunburned man. The girls smiled and walked over, the boys following - well, trying. Butch was more or less limping.

"Thanks, Mom." Blossom hugged her mother and smiled, Bubbles following. Buttercup hi-fived her father. The boys went up to Beatrice who patted their heads and smiled.

"You'll get them next time, promise." she told them. Brick rolled his eyes and motioned to the two newbies.

"Who are they?" he asked.

"That's Mojo, hes one of the cooks for the Resistance." John smiled. "And that's Him." he pointed to the sunburned guy.

"Him?" the boys asked.

"Yes, Him." the sunburned man said. "My real name is Henry, but I'd rather go by Him. Its much more intimidating." he clapped his hands together, giggling. The boys slowly shied away from him and hid behind Beatrice, who was smiling cheerfully.

"Why don't we all go to the kitchen where I can make a lot of food and serve it to you all as an appetizing midday meal?" Mojo suggested.

"He means, do you guys want lunch?" Him put in, earning a glare. Everyone nodded.

"We'll meet you guys in the kitchen." John said. "You still have to put away that armor."

"But-" Buttercup was about to talk back, but her father gave her the 'Don't argue with me' glare', with which made her silent. "Yes, Dad." she muttered, walking off. The other five followed quickly. They all entered the building and went back to the armor room, where six stands where empty. The teenagers shed the armor.

"So, whats the story behind this armor?" Butch asked.

"Oh, goodness." Buttercup groaned as Bubbles' eyes lit up.

"Bring a chair, boys. Its story time." Blossom chuckled, leaning against the wall.

"Okay, so long ago, there were three kingdoms. Ruby Kingdom, Emerald Kingdom, and Sapphire Kingdom. They lived in peace and harmony, with song and laughter." Bubbles began. "But, things began getting strange. The Kings of each Kingdom ordered the army to create impenetrable suits that could withstand anything. Each Kingdom came up with two suits, one for the buffer, and one for the quicker." Bubbles looked to all the suits, pointing out the ones that the girls were for the 'quicker', and the ones the boys were for the 'buffer'.

She motioned to the first two suits, which besides the shining silver metal had a red shield and red trimming. "These came from the Ruby Kingdom, a Kingdom of smarts and wittiness." she moved on to the suits with the green shield and green trimming. "These two originated from Emerald Kingdom, which was all strength and bronze." she giggled and moved on to the suits with blue shields and trimming. "And these two came from the Sapphire Kingdom, the Kingdom of gracefulness and ease.

"The six warriors who wore these suits worked together against all defenses, and fought hard. But, one by one, the warriors' weaknesses were found and used against them, and they were killed. Its said that these suits, although are great in battle, hold a curse when fought against the soldiers that support those who killed the warriors. The curse is that you'll die the same way, with your weaknesses used against you.

"The warriors' bodies were never recovered. Only the armor. They all were found in an abandoned field by Sarah and John, and brought back. They are only to be used for practice, because of how strong they are. But some people disobey. And those people... They die." Bubbles finished, the lights going out just as she said that. A split second later, the lights turned back on. The boys looked around while Blossom and Bubbles were dying of laughter. The boys found Buttercup near the light-switch and growled. She grinned.

"So, is any of that true? Because it feels like you pranked us." Brick asked.

"Oh, its all true, up until the curse part or the part where if you wear them, you die." Blossom assured him, still laughing. The boys growled quietly, just as Beatrice peaked her head in.

"You guys hungry?" she asked, smiling. The girls nodded and left quickly, while the boys exited slowly and glumly, mainly because they had been pranks. Poor Suckers!
