I'm Ky, a Kairu Champion. I race around the world to find a powerful energy known as Kairu. Not long ago, Lokar unleashed a power called Shadow Kairu. After going on a journey, I found Prism Kairu, a force I thought had the power to change Shadow Kairu back into normal Kairu. After using it, instead of turning all the Shadow Kairu back, it only worked on Kairu that had already been found. The rest of it transformed into something not Shadow or Pure Kairu. This new Gray Kairu changes from good to bad depending on who has it. Lokar also has a new team of E-Teens that have a type of move called a Violet Move, which increases their Kairu strength during a battle. With the odds stacked against us, we have to press on to fight Lokar and save the world from him and his Dark Teams. My quest is to save the world from Lokar by conquering all types of Kairu, and to one day ascend to the level of
REDAKAI!
"Come on guys!" Team Tiro was trying to catch a small ball of Kairu. Maya was controlling it and making it float around by holding her hand out and making it go in the direction she moved her hand. "You can't just use your eyes! Use all of your senses! And remember, whoever catches it first gets the Kairu!" Gia smirked as she chased the Kairu.
"Oh, I'm definitely getting that Kairu!" Apex shook his head.
"No, it's mine!" Balistar smiled.
"Actually, due to my speed an trajectory, I should reach it first!" The Kairu ball stopped. Gia smirked.
"It stopped! It's as good as mine!" Apex smiled.
"No, it's mine!" Maya smirked as she suddenly moved the ball upward, making them all crash into each other. It came back to her hand. Balistar held his head.
"I think it's Maya's." They all laughed. Maya smiled as she stopped laughing.
"Now, I said the first one to get it would get the Kairu, but what would've happened if you had all gotten it at the same time?" Balistar smiled.
"Then we all would've gotten the Kairu!" Maya nodded.
"Hunting down Kairu isn't in individual effort. Even Ekayon doesn't do it alone! He has the help of Master Atoch. Everyone brings something to the table that makes getting Kairu possible. Take me and the rest of Team Stax for example. Ky brings good ideas and uses his leadership skills, and Boomer brings a lot of brute strength to the team." Gia nodded.
"Yeah, but what do you bring to Team Stax?" Maya smirked as she folded her arms across her chest.
"Me? I bring Kairu detecting abilities, plus reason. You wouldn't believe some of the stupid stuff those two would do if I wasn't around."
"LOOK OUT!" Maya saw a large boulder coming at Team Tiro. Her eyes widened. She was too far away from them, but Ky pushed them all out of the way. He was out of the way himself, but he landed directly on his left shoulder. The boulder just barely didn't run over his foot, brushing up against his shoe. Maya went over to them.
"Are you guys okay?!" Gia nodded, one hand on her head.
"Yeah, at least, I'm fine." Balistar nodded.
"I'm good as well." Maya looked at Apex, worried.
"What about you Apex? Apex?!" He wasn't opening his eyes. Gia checked his pulse.
"He's alright. He just fainted from being so scared." Maya sighed in relief, then glared at Ky, who was clutching his shoulder.
"What is wrong with you?! Why on earth are you messing around with boulders?!" She turned to Team Tiro. "This is what I mean! When I'm not around, they do such stupid things!" Ky looked up at her.
"Hey, don't look at me! Boomer's the one who decided it would be a good idea to train in the rockiest area around! I thought it was a bad idea, but he convinced me it wasn't! If you didn't notice, that was Boomer who shouted 'look out' after sending that boulder this way. He sent it rolling down here, not me!" Just then, Boomer came running.
"Is everyone alright?!" Maya glared at him. She started poking him in the chest in an accusing way.
"No thanks to you! You're actions nearly got Team Tiro killed! Apex fainted! You're lucky no one was hurt!" Ky tried to stand up, but he cried out in pain. Maya stopped glaring at Boomer and gave Ky a worried look.
"Ky, are you alright?" He nodded, still not trying to stand up.
"I'm fine. Nothing can beat me!" He tried to do a strongman pose, but he clutched his left shoulder in pain. Maya's eyes were filled with worry.
"You hurt your shoulder!" He smiled at her in a reassuring way.
"Oh come on. It's not that bad." Mookee came running out.
"Guys! A Kairu deposit's been detected in Scotland!" Ky smirked.
"Then we'd better get ready for it." Maya gave him a look.
"Oh no, you are not going on any missions until your shoulder is better." He gave her another smile.
"Maya, trust me, I'm going on the mission."
"There's no way you're going on the mission." Ky's eyes widened. He sat in front of Master Boaddai.
"But Master Boaddai, they need me! And Ekayon's doing some sort of training with Master Atoch! There's now way he can go with them! Also, no offense to Mookee, but I don't trust him to not mess something up without me there. No one on Team Tiro is ready yet, and Keema's sick with, with, what was it? Grumbletitus?"
"It's Grundalatitus. He has blue spots, a fever, and can't see anything until it goes away. I know that there's no suitable replacement for you right now, but Maya and Boomer will have to do this without you. You dislocated your shoulder, as well as tore a ligament and fractured your shoulder blade. If you go on this mission, you will cause further injury to yourself, and only detriment Maya and Boomer's attempt to retrieve the Kairu. I'm sorry, but that it my final decision. You can't change my mind on this. This isn't only for your own good, but for Maya and Boomer's as well. With your situation, you will only weight them down and making retrieving the Kairu impossible." Master Boaddai stood up. "I will inform Maya and Boomer of my decision, and you will stay here. Understood?" Ky sighed and looked down at the ground.
"Understood." Master Boaddai nodded and left, while Ky sighed. He went over to the wall and used his right arm to pull himself up. He walked outside and saw Master Boaddai tell Maya and boomer his decision. After Maya yelled at Boomer, they left, the X-Scaper flying through the sky as Ky watched on with sad eyes. Master Boaddai walked over to Ky and put his hand on Ky's right shoulder.
"They'll be fine. Trust your teammates." He smiled at Ky. "Now, why don't we bandage up that arm?"
Maya looked out the window, watching the monastery shrink. She then turned around and glared at Boomer.
"I can't believe what you did! Now, Ky can't come on a mission with us because of what you did!" Boomer rolled his eyes.
"I've gotta keep my eyes on the skies! Mookee can't take the wheel because he's taking care of Keema's whatever he has. Normally, I'd argue back with you, but right now, I can't!" Maya rolled her eyes.
"Face it Boomer, you couldn't win an argument with a paper bag. But I'm not trying to argue with you. I'm just really mad that we have to leave Ky behind." Boomer looked back at her for a second.
"Chill out Maya. I'm sure we can do this just fine. Remember when you and me beat the Radikor without Ky? I'm sure we can do it again." She took in a deep breath.
"Okay, fine. I'm chill. But seriously, how did the boulder get rolling anyway?" Boomer sighed.
"Ky was hiding behind it while we were sparing, so I used Anti-Grav to lift it up and Ky ran towards the monastery, laughing. I put it down, but it didn't stay where put it. I tried using Anti-Grav again, but it was going too fast and I couldn't get my aim right, so it kept rolling. Once Ky was it, he used Jet Jump to get down there and I didn't see anything else." She clenched her fists.
"You lifted a boulder?! Geez, I had thought that you had accidentally hit it, not lifted it!" Boomer sighed.
"You just said you were chill! I wouldn't have said anything if I didn't believe you!" She took a deep breath.
"I'm calm, I'm calm." Boomer nodded.
"Good, because we've gotta focus if we're gonna get that Kairu."
Ky sat in the middle of a circle, in a meditative position (or as best as he could while wearing a sling. In front of him was a large clay pot full of water.
"I can at least train my Inner Kairu. That doesn't require moving my arm." He closed his eyes and focused. Slowly, the water came up, forming into a small ball. Then, it shifted to take the shape of the Team Stax symbol. Then, it morphed into the shape of Platinum Metanoid. After that, it took the shape of the Prism Kairu. Team Tiro was about to walk in, but Gia stopped. Apex and Balistar were about to go in, but Gia grabbed the backs of their robes and brought them back behind the arch to the practice area. Apex glared at Gia.
"What'd you do that for?!" She glared back at him.
"SH!" She covered his mouth. "Look at what Ky's doing." They both looked. Apex's eyes widened. He muffled through Gia's hand. She glared at him. "Be quiet!" She let go of his mouth.
"That's so cool!" Balistar nodded.
"He's using his Inner Kairu to manipulate the water. How cool is that?"
"I think it's very cool. And you do realize I can hear you, right?" They looked away from themselves and at Ky, who was smirking as the water calmly went back into the clay pot. Apex had a sheepish looked on his face as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Sorry for messing you up Ky." He shook his head.
"You guys didn't mess me up. It was just practice anyway." Gia came in, looking amazed.
"Can you show us how to do that?" Ky shrugged as best as he could with one shoulder.
"I don't know. Are you willing to go through some rigorous training where you don't get to through even one punch?" Gia smiled.
"I was born ready!" She sat down next to Ky. "So, what's first?" He smiled as Apex and Balistar also sat by him.
"Well, first, you've gotta know what your Inner Kairu feels like."
Maya looked around, trying to sense the Kairu. They were in the plains of Scotland, with a few trees here and there. They were right by one such tree.
"It's faint and not close. We're gonna have quite the long walk ahead of us." Boomer pointed forward.
"Looks over there. Those buildings are in pretty bad shape." Maya narrowed her eyes.
"Those are building in an old abandoned village." Boomer looked confused.
"Why would anyone abandon a village?" Maya easily thought of a reason she had read in a book.
"Sometimes people build villages in places they think are good, but turn out to be a disaster. One of the reasons they get abandoned is because the terrain can't support crops, only the plants naturally there, and those plants aren't edible. Another reason would be because the weather's too harsh or unpredictable for anyone to survive in. But, not matter the reason, the Kairu's down there, and we need to go get it." Boomer nodded.
"Let's go."
"You're not going anywhere!" They turned around. Maya glared.
"Looks like Team Femmicore's back." Rueth smirked.
"Where's your leader? Did he get scared and run off? I wouldn't blame him. We did give him a thorough butt kicking last time." Mae nodded.
"It's too bad. He was fun to play with, but I guess I've already got a playmate." She looked at Boomer, who was very creeped out.
"Why does she always give me those kinds of looks?!" Sara smirked, trying to look as evil as possible.
"No one cares about that. What we care about is getting the Kairu, and that's what's gonna happen."
"You're not getting any of that Kairu." They all turned towards the tree they were by. A full-grown man jumped out of it and landed in between Maya and Boomer. He wore a black t-shirt, gray pants, black combat boots, a belt with the Team Stax/Redakai symbol, only with red instead of green, and a brown cape that also had a hood, the cowl covering his face in shadow. His voice was obviously disguised. Rueth glared at him.
"Who are you?" She glared and Boomer and Maya. "Is this some kind of a joke?" Maya shrugged, her hands flat and at the same level as her shoulders.
"Okay, we're just as confused about this as you guys. We don't know who he is either!" She turned to Boomer. "Right Boomer?" He nodded.
"Yeah, I've never seen this guy before in my life." The man looked straight on, or at least, that was assumed since no one present was able to see his face.
"My identity doesn't matter. What matters is that I'm an enemy of Lokar's and I can't stand idly by and let him get any more Kairu than he already has." Rueth glared.
"Well, I don't care who you are, but no one's getting in the way of Master Lokar's Kairu! Kairu Challenge!" The man nodded.
"Challenge Accepted!" Maya and Boomer's eyes widened. Maya waved her hands in the air in front of her.
"Whoa, you don't have to agree to these just like that!" He turned towards them.
"You don't have to participate if you don't want to, but I'm not gonna let evil get it's hands on any Kairu." He pulled out an X-Reader very similar to Connor's. "FROZITONE! SNOW BEAM ATTACK!" A large white Yeti like creature appeared behind him, with ice blue eyes, no nose, gray skin on its hands and feet, as well as patches of ice all over its fur. Rueth smirked as she pulled out her X-Reader.
"ROSENETARY! FLOWER NET!" A thin, but muscular, creature that looked like it was composed of red petals, with a green rose for a head, two yellow roses for feet, and two orange roses for hands, and curved rectangle shaped violet eyes, with a rotted split where its mouth was, appeared behind Rueth. Mae got out her X-Reader.
"WAVERIPPER! RIVER STRIKE!" A giant blue humanoid female like creature with mottled blue and purple scales, a fish head with black eyes, a black fin all the way down its back, a green fin on each of the forearms and calves, and blue armor appeared behind Mae. Sara got hers out rather quickly.
"AVERINA! EAGLE FLIGHT!" A giant humanoid feminine red bird with wings attached to her arms, black bird feet attached to the legs, and large, green bird eyes appeared behind Sara. Boomer shrugged.
"I guess we don't have much of a choice here." He pulled out his X-Reader. "FROZTOK! ICE WHIP!" Maya pulled out hers.
"IFINITA! FIRE TORNADO!" They all stood in front of each other. The man turned spoke to Maya and Boomer.
"Boomer, you take on Mae, and Maya, you take on Sara. I'll deal with Rueth." Boomer was a bit shocked.
"How do you know our names, uh dude? And what should we call you?" The man rolled his eyes.
"I told you, I'm an enemy of Lokar's, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend. If you want something to call me, then call me Jace. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna kick off the battle. SNOW BEAM ATTACK!" He pointed his finger at her, sending a beam of direct snow went right at Rueth, who couldn't avoid the attack. It knocked her back a few feet. She smirked at him as she got up.
"So, you can talk the talk and walk the walk. But, can you keep it up against my FLOWER NET?!" She spat out a large blue net made of flowers connecting together with blue energy. Jace easily jumped over the attack, but it started heading towards Maya and boomer. They barely dodged it. Boomer wiped his hand across his brow.
"That was a close one." Maya nodded.
"Yeah, it was." Sara smirked.
"This one won't be close. EAGLE STRIKE!" She threw a green eagle at Maya, who wasn't able to dodge it. It sent her back several feet. Maya got up on one knee.
"Looks like this battle isn't gonna be easy. Then again, when are they?" She stood up. "FIRE TORNADO!" She sent the attack at Sara, who flipped to the right, away from the attack. She smiled as she stuck the landing.
"I am so glad right now that my dad forced me to take gymnastics. SKY DIVE!" She sent up a falcon into the air, directly into the sun. Maya looked up, but had to shield her eyes.
"I can't see where it is!" Suddenly, it came crashing down on her from the air before she could react. Boomer's eyes widened.
"Maya!" Mae smiled.
"You don't have time to help your friend. You're playing with me, remember? You shouldn't stop in the middle of the game. RIVER STRIKE!" She giggled as a rush of water went straight at Boomer, knocking him over. He stood up, shaking his arms.
"That water just feels weird!" He glared at Mae. "And this is not a play date! How much you act like a little girl freaks me out! ICE WHIP!" Mae giggled as she did a back flip to avoid it.
"You may like ice and whips, but I prefer fire and chains." Boomer looked a bit scared.
"Uh oh. Not again!"
"INFERNO CHAIN!" The green chain, once again, wrapped around Boomer's legs and made him fall over.
"Do you enjoy making me fall over?!" She giggled.
"Yes." Jace looked over at Rueth.
"I'll admit, you're pretty good for 14." She smirked at him.
"And you're pretty good for an old man." He raised his hand.
"I'm bad at arguing, so I'm not gonna try and make a comeback with words. Kairu's better for settling these kinds of disputes anyway. BLIZZARD AXES!" He threw them at Rueth, who easily dodged.
"You're supposed to be Ky's replacement? You're more like Boomer than Ky!" Jace shrugged.
"Who cares if I am? As long as the job gets done, I don't think anyone does. BLIZZARD BLADES!" He threw the two swords at Rueth, who easily dodge them. She kept smirking.
"I think that one last attack should get rid of you quite nicely! DOUBLE FLORAL PUNCH!" Two red fists came from both of her hands. Jace easily dodged them.
"I may be older, but I'm not slower. BOREALIS BLAST!" The attack hit Rueth dead on in the chest, making her fall over and transform back to normal. She smirked as she got up on one knee with one fist on the ground.
"You're not the only one with a few tricks up your sleeve. FLORA KAIRU MELD!" The entire area turned purple as she gained the Kairu from the environment. Jace smirked.
"I've face a Violet Move before in a battle, and there's only one move that can stop them. KAIRU MELD BLOCK!" Rueth was suddenly glowing blue. She glared at him.
"What'd you do to me?!" He smirked.
"I just used a Blue Attack called Kairu Meld Block. Every attack has its weakness, and a Violet Move's weakness is that." Mae laughed.
"You may have beaten Rueth, but you've still got us to play with!" Boomer got up, trying to stand properly. Maya smiled and nodded.
"Yeah, don't forget about us! FIRE DAGGERS!" Multiple green daggers made of fire rushed at Sara. She couldn't avoid them, and was knocked over. Boomer smiled at Mae.
"Looks like this play date is over. SOLAR WIND!" The attack instantly hit Mae and knocked her over. The sky turned back to normal. Rueth fell to the ground, no longer glowing blue. She glared at them.
"The only reason why you won was because I'm used to fighting Ky, not you! Next time, you won't be so lucky!" They disappeared. Jace sighed.
"I wish it didn't have to come to that." He turned to Boomer and Maya. "Let's get the Kairu and leave. Whatever X-Drives I get, I'll give to Boomer and he can give them to Ky, okay?" He started walking off. Maya and boomer gave each other a look.
"Should we trust him?" Boomer thought about that.
"He seems really familiar, so I'm gonna go with maybe."
"Are you coming?" Jace had stopped ahead of them to let them catch up. Maya nodded.
"We're coming!" They ran to catch up.
"Ky, it's not working!" Gia was frustrated as she sat in front of a small rock, trying to make it float using her Inner Kairu. Ky was standing in front of her, and Apex and Balistar were on either side of her. They weren't having any luck with their Inner Kairu either. Ky smiled at her.
"Don't worry, your inner Kairu just hasn't flourished yet. Mine didn't really pop up until the middle of a Kairu Tournament when I was fighting against Zane. But it doesn't work if you try and force it. You're just trying too hard. Inner Kairu doesn't come from forcing it to do something. You've got to put some emotion into it, as well as focus. Focusing on something and forcing it are two different things. Just focus and imagine the rock floating. Don't try and force it, just feel it." She nodded. He looked at Balistar and Apex. "That goes for you two as well." They both nodded. All of them closed their eyes, and slowly, the rocks started floating. Master Boaddai looked on, smiling.
Jace, Maya, and boomer walked through the abandoned village. Maya looked over at Jace while Boomer was deep in thought.
"So, um, Jace, how come we've never met you, or even heard of you, if you're an enemy of Lokar's? Are you a friend of the Redakai's?" His head moved from side to side, looking through the doors.
"You've never heard of me because I operated secretly, but I retired from doing that a long time ago. As much as I loved keeping the universe safe from Lokar, I had other things in life that I wanted to do that I couldn't do while living like this." Maya looked confused.
"Like what? You can do more things as a Kairu Warrior than as a civilian." Jace shook his head.
"I never said I was a Kairu Warrior, and you may think that now, but when you come to the same crossroads that I did, then you'll understand why I stopped fighting Lokar and left it to the next generation of Kairu Warriors." Boomer said something out loud.
"Jace." Jace turned to him slightly.
"Yes?" Boomer shook his head.
"Nothing. Something just sound familiar about that." Jace shrugged.
"Well, I wouldn't know what it is that seems so familiar. I just made it up on the spot." Maya stopped.
"The Kairu's in there." She pointed at a house. Well, it was more of half a house. The other half had turned into a pile of rubble. They entered it, and there was a small table with a few chairs, one of them glowing blue. Jace got out his X-Reader.
"Let's just get the Kairu and get out of here." They all held out their X-Readers. Boomer smiled.
"Ky's gonna be so pumped about us getting the Kairu!"
"Not today!" They looked outside. Maya rolled her eyes.
"We kicked your butts already! Do you really want it to happen twice?" Rueth smirked.
"You caught us by surprise the first time, but this time, we're ready for it! Kairu Challenge!" Jace rolled his eyes under his mask.
"You E-Teens never learn, do you? Challenge Accepted!" The sky changed ass they got ready for a battle. The Femmicore stacked up.
"ROSENTARY!"
"WAVERIPPER!"
"AVERINA!" Maya, Boomer, and Jace stacked up.
"INFINITA!"
"FROZTOK!"
"FROZITONE!" Rueth smirked.
"Let's start this off with a full transformation." She held out her X-Reader. "ROSENETARY!" As green energy surrounded her, she morphed into Rosenetary. Mae held out her X-Reader while she had a creepy smile on her face.
"WAVERIPPER!" She fully changed into Waveripper. Sara smirked as she pulled out her X-Reader.
"AVERINA!" Jace got out his X-Reader.
"FROZITONE!" He transformed fully. "Let's make this a quick battle. PLATINUM FROZITONE!" Rueth stepped back a bit. Her voice sounded a bit more airy and sweet.
"What? A platinum monster?!" Jace nodded.
"Yes, and this Platinum Monster is all I need to take you down!" Boomer smirked.
"Not just one Platinum Monster! FROZTOK!" He changed into Froztok. "PLATINUM FROZTOK!" Maya nodded.
"And I've got double Platinum, but one is all I need. INFINITA!" She changed into Infinita. "Now, let's see how this new one works! PLATINUM INFINITA!" She changed into her brand new Platinum X-Drive. She looked at her hands and smiled. "Platinum Infinita feels even better than Platinum Harrier! Why did I ever stop using this X-Drive so much?" Rueth stepped back a few steps.
"You all have Platinum Monsters?! Master Lokar never told us that!" Jace smirked.
"Well, I think these platinum Monsters will be more than enough to beat you. HAILSTORM!"
"FIRE VORTEX!"
"SOLAR WIND!" As the three attacks hit them, the Femmicore were easily knocked over, transforming back and making the sky change back to normal. Rueth shook her head.
"No way! I can't believe I got so full of myself that I lost so easily! I was even so cocky that I didn't refuel on Kairu!" She looked up at them. "But now I know that you all have Platinum Monsters, and I won't be surprised if Ky does too! I'll be ready next time, and don't doubt it." They disappeared. Jace changed back to normal.
"She's not lying. I could tell her rhythm was thrown off. Cockiness isn't that evident unless it can be backed up by a lot of battles. But another thing is that she's just so used to winning against you guys." He looked back at Maya and Boomer. "How many battles have they won against you?" Maya looked a little embarrassed.
"Um, 15, not that I'm keeping track." Jace nodded.
"I'm glad I was here then. Lokar would've gotten the Kairu if we hadn't thrown off their rhythm so much. Now, let's collect the Kairu." He held out his X-Reader. Boomer noticed initials on the bottom of it.
"JC?" Jace quickly covered them up.
"Don't pay attention to that. Just collect the Kairu." The Kairu started coming out of the chair before it entered their X-Readers. Boomer pumped his fist in the air.
"Sweet! I got a new Green Attack, Snow Beam Attack!" Maya nodded.
"And I got a new Blue Attack, Fire Net." She turned to Jace. "What'd you get?" he sighed.
"It doesn't matter, this X-Drive belongs to Ky. If he wants to tell you what it is, then he can be my guest, but for now, I'm not saying a word. Let's get back to your Master. How'd you get here?" Maya and boomer looked at each other, then back at Jace. Maya pointed in the direction of the X-Scaper.
"The X-Scaper. It's an alien ship from-" Jace cut her off.
"I'm very familiar with ships from Nervod. I've been there before and flown those ships. Let's just go. I don't want to go, but I'm not sure if I can trust you to transfer the X-Drive I got to Ky. It's very powerful, and any Kairu Warrior would want to keep it. I don't doubt your morals, but I'm a bit paranoid with those kind of things." Maya gave him a look as he started heading towards the X-Scaper.
"And how do we know that you won't keep it? How do we know that you're not a spy for Lokar? We beat Team Femmicore way too easily today!" Jace didn't bother turning around.
"I'm not going to keep it. I don't want anything to do with Kairu anymore. I stopped using it for a reason, but I guess once on the path of Kairu, you never leave. But even so, I'm going to stay as far away from that path as I possibly can." Maya nodded.
"But what about the Femmicore?!" Boomer put his hand on Maya's shoulder.
"Chill out Maya. We can trust him. I'm not sure what it is, but something that's very familiar about him just keeps telling me I can trust him. Master Boaddai tells us to trust our instincts all the time, so I'm going to trust them, and they're saying he's not lying." Maya sighed.
"Alright, fine. You can come to the monastery with us, but that's the extent of what you're gonna do, okay?" Jace nodded, walking towards the X-Scaper.
"That's all I intended to do."
The X-Scaper landed at its dock. Ky smiled as he heard it coming. Gia, Apex, and Balistar were now levitating even larger rocks, about the size of their fists.
"Keep doing that until I get back, okay?" He ran off to go and greet his team. Maya and boomer came out. "How was the mission?" Maya smiled.
"Great, but pretty weird." Ky looked confused.
"Weird? Weird how?" Jace stepped out of the ship. "Ah, weird that way. And who are you?" He got out his X-Reader.
" I'm a friend, and that's all you need to know. Now, hold out your X-Reader." Ky narrowed his eyes.
"What makes you think I trust a guy I just met?" He motioned towards Maya and Boomer.
"The fact that your teammates are just fine. If it weren't for me, they never would've beaten the Femmicore." Ky's eyes widened.
"You guys beat the Femmicore?" Maya nodded.
"Yeah, but it was only because Jace was there to throw them off. He has a Platinum Monster!" Ky eyed him wearily.
"You have a Platinum Monster?" Jace nodded.
"I have two actually. Platinum Frozitone and Platinum Physmaster. And now, I'm going to show you the X-Drive you get. I don't want any more X-Drives, and I don't want to be on the path of a Kairu Warrior anymore. I gave that up a long time ago." Ky warily took out his X-Reader. Jace transferred the X-Drive. When Ky looked at it, he was amazed.
"No way! Platinum Fractus?!" Jace nodded.
"I've already got two Platinum Monsters, I don't need a third, although, when you reach a certain skill level, you seem to get a lot of those." Master Boaddai walked over to them.
"Ah, I see the mission went well." Boomer looked confused.
"You're not surprised at the random guy behind us?" Master Boaddai shook his head.
"At my age, nothing surprises you, except for maybe Mookee's cooking." Everyone short of Jace laughed at that. Jace just shook his head.
"I'll never understand why people from Nervod can't make edible food. Anyway, I need to get home. If you ever need me again, well, I'll already know." He started walking off, but Boomer grabbed his shoulder.
"Wait a minute, just who are you?" Jace turned towards him, a smiled on his face. Boomer could just barely make out his smiling green eyes.
"I think you've already figured it out." He then jumped off the side. Everyone short of Master Boaddai freaked out, but when they looked down, he was already gone. Maya looked really confused.
"How did he do that?" Master Boaddai shrugged.
"A Kairu Warrior can do many things." Boomer nodded as he stood up straight.
"Yeah, but he kept saying he wasn't a Kairu Warrior. You know, the way he acted, you'd think he was a soldier." Suddenly, it hit him. Wait a minute, he is a soldier!" He went through the clues in his mind. "I'm so stupid! Just because I couldn't see his face or hear his voice doesn't mean that I shouldn't have recognized him!" Ky looked concerned.
"What is it?"
"He called himself Jace, but that's just JC run together. He had green eyes, he acted like a soldier, and he said that he left the path of Kairu to keep other out of danger! That means he had or family, or left to start one! And I know who that family is!" Maya looked excited.
"Well spit it out Boom! Who is he?"
"He's Sara's dad."
When you're facing a team that always beats you, it's a good idea to shake things up. Since Jace, or rather, Sara's dad, was there instead of me, it really threw off their game. Then, when they faced them again, because they didn't know that Maya, Boomer, or Sara's dad had Platinum Monsters, they weren't prepared and lost in the very beginning. So make sure you always shake things up a little bit.
