"A party?" Danny asked. "Yeah man Tomoyo's parties are off the chain" Zero said gleefully "Why don't I find that encouraging at all" Danny said "Dude this is Tomoyo Daidouji we're talking about here; she's the school's official sweetheart. Nothing evil will be there" Zero said "I know, but still Amaya's been silent ever since we got back of Hong Kong" Danny said "Luckily it's given us enough time to train Sakura in Syphoner containment protocols" Zero said "Okay so the Syphoners haven't attacked" Danny said "But the reason is why" Zero said "Who knows" Zero said "We got a party to rock" Zero said "Alright I'll come along but if I don't like it I'm riding" Danny said bumping fists with Zero "That is what I like to hear, besides your girl is also going to be there bro" Zero said "Unofficial girlfriend" Danny said. "You kissed and she slept over at your place, and not to mention you saw her underwear." Zero said "Just shut up;" Danny said walking off. "See you there man" Zero said walking off.
As Danny parked his bike and saw Tomoyo's mansion for the first time "Please let it be funded legally" Danny said 'What do you think; you brain dead half baked moron' Noble asked "I'll take it as a y" Danny froze mid-sentence 'Err kid you can go in, you know Tomoyo did invite you" Noble said "Not that. I think she's here" Danny said scowling a bit 'She won't have a clue where we are and if she did I doubt she could do anything about it' Noble said "You're right; beside when was I last a teenager and not some hunter?" Danny asked cheering up as he walked in the front gates. "Nice place" Danny said ringing the bell. "Welcome, are you a friend of Miss Tomoyo?" a maid asked. "Yeah, I'm Daniel" he said as the maid welcomed him in, after removing his boots.
"Hey DAN!" Zero shouted over the loud Japanese rock music "J-Rock" Zero said seeing Danny's face. "Wow interesting music" Danny said looking uncomfortable "Cheer up I'm sure Tomoyo's got some English music in there for you" Zero said "I hope she didn't go to too much trouble" Danny said obtaining a drink. "Don't worry, I helped her out" Zero said "So where is our host?" Danny asked. "Helping Saskura with something" Zero said smiling. "What is it?" Danny asked as he turned to see Sakura "Whoa" Danny said. In his eyes Sakura was the most beautiful girl ever, she wore light make-up and a pink top, black jeans and black ballet flats, her hair flowed down her shoulders. "Um, what do I say?" Danny asked 'Be yourself' Noble said "And that is?" Danny asked as Sakura walked up to him "Hey" she said in an almost shy manner "Hi, you...you look incredible" Danny said "Thanks" Sakura said bashfully brushing a piece of her hair behind her ear. "No problem" Danny said smiling "Want to dance?" Sakura asked "Um" Danny said 'OH for vengeance's sake' Noble said taking over a bit and guiding Sakura to the dance floor where a slower song started to play "Okay" Danny said 'Sorry for that' Noble apologize asked the couple started to dance.
"Those two look good together" Zero said as Tomoyo stood next to him "I agree" Tomoyo said slipping her hand into his. "Like us?" she asked. "I agree" Zero said "Hey Tomoyo!" a voice exclaimed "It can't be" Tomoyo gasped turning to see "Meiling?" she gasped. "What are you doing here?" Zero asked surprised "It's good to see you too Kenshiro" Meiling said slugging him in the arm "I thought we might come back here and then we heard you were having a party, sorry for gatecrashing" Meiling said "No problem, as long as I don't see him" Zero said angrily. "Easy Z" Tomoyo said "So when did you guys hook up?" Meiling asked.
'She's here!' Noble said as the dancing couple were dancing while staring into each other's eyes. 'Amaya, threat, here now' Noble shouted 'OH for crying out loud!' Noble said. Soon the couple stopped dancing "I'll get some drinks" Danny said 'About time' "Okay, I'm going to talk to Tomoyo" Sakura said wandering off. 'Now are you listening?' Noble asked. "Yeah so what?" Danny asked as he reached the punch bowl "You're new around here aren't you?" a new voice asked making Danny glanced to the left "And you are?" Danny asked "Call me Eli" the new comer said 'The descendent of Clow Reed, the original master of Keroberos and the card your beloved now commands' Noble said "Yeah, I am name's Danny Ketch" Danny said shaking Eli's hand "And you're the current Rider?" Eli asked. "One of the three" Danny said "Three?" Eli asked shocked as the two got the drinks they went there for as they walked away.
"This is the first time ever there has been three different riders, the first one is Carter Slade the Phantom Rider, the first one to outrun Mephisto, he later became a caretaker and Rider Mentor. The next one is the Rider who is bonded with Zarathos, and that rider is my older brother Johnny Blaze, next comes me Daniel Ketch the Spirit of Vengeance who is bonded to Noble Kale" Danny explained. "And there is a forth rider" Danny said "Really who?" Eli said. Danny was about to answer when they reached the girls. "Here Kura" Danny said handing a drink to Sakura. "Mei" Eli said doing the same for Meiling "Thanks" the girls said "Where's Zero?" Danny asked. "I don't know" Sakura said "Oh shit" Eli said "What?" Danny asked.
"Hello Kenshiro" "Xiao Lang" the two said with aggression clear in their voices. 'Man has he got some balls showing up here, especially since most guys here want to kick this guy's ass for what he did to Sakura' Zero thought. 'And I'm the one who gets first swing' Zero thought. 'So Zero, huh; he's changed. But he'll never beat me' Li thought as both of them brought their fists back before swinging them forward. "WHOA!" Danny said catching both of their fists "What's going on here?" Danny asked as he let go "Meet Syaoran Li" Zero snarled. "Zero, calm down man, now go and talk with Tomoyo" Danny said "Alright" Zero said leaving "Sorry, about that man, nice to meet you I'm Danny" Danny said shaking hands. "Nice to meet you" Syaoran said "So I heard rumours that you were with Sakura" Danny said "I was, but something happened" Syaoran said 'No shit wolfie' Noble said "What?" Danny asked. "I don't want to talk about it" Syaoran said "Sure thing" Danny said walking away 'Amaya's may have enchanted him' Noble said "No doubt" Danny said leaning against the wall 'Wait that Love Syphoner' Noble said "You don't think?" Danny asked 'She could have done something to the Li boy; we have to find her and talk with her' Noble said. "Never mind I want to have a word with Zero, before his Ghost form takes over" Danny said. 'Very well' Noble said
"That punk" Zero growls while he chilled outside "Boy's got balls, so maybe I better activate my Ghost form and soon" Zero said pulling his sleeve to reveal his rider bracer. "I don't think that would be necessary" a voice said "Eli, you son of a bitch, still hanging around with Li?" Zero asked. "Yes I am, so that way I have been able to keep an eye on him and see if he acts strange" Eli said "And has he?" Zero asked "You know that answer" Eli smirked. "So tell me, why have you decided to remain neutral in this conflict?" Zero asked "Every fight needs a third party to make sure nothing gets out of hand" Eli replied. "Oh" Zero sighed. "How long?" Zero then asked. "How long until what?" Eli asked. "We know what Amaya is after?" Zero asked "I don't know, all I know is that she has been using the Syphoners to hunt it down" Eli said.
'There's the queen' Noble said "Hello Amaya" Danny said being civil "Hello Rider" Amaya sneered "I have a name you know" Danny said "Ok then, what is it?" Amaya asked. "Danny" he answered "Nice name" Amaya purred "So you know everything about us, but we know jack about you" Danny said "What is it you seek?" Amaya asked "What do you hunt for in the city?" Danny asked "The magic of the stars" Amaya said slinking away "I hate her, but what is the Magic of the stars?" Danny asked. 'Most magic is derived from Luna and Solar, the sun and moon; but once in a planetary alignment; the powers of the stars is granted to one person, and the last alignment was April 1st 17 years ago' Noble said making Danny look up at his girl "Sakura" Danny said.
