Kale and Sehkmet stalked away from Batrias, slowly making their way around the building. The darkness combined with the rainstorm made it easy for them to pass unnoticed- but Kale used his ability to make himself and Sehkmet appear invisible. Even though they weren't really on Tusuki's side, they still had to obey her, for that was the only way they knew to destroy her.
Batrias, meanwhile, let the power of his armor charge into his sword and released it, sending it streaking over the house. He clenched his fist and it exploded over the house, illuminating everything briefly.
Kale cursed, then smiled. Batrias hadn't told him about that bit. But, he decided it didn't matter since he was at the back of the house, and Batrias was at the front. There was nowhere for their prey to run now.
***
Arrow checked her baggage ticket as the plane crawled into the air out of a Tonga airport. She still felt amazed at how easy it was the defy the natural laws of the universe, how simple it seemed travel amongst the heavens.
Damn you, Batrias, or whoever you are, she thought, You can't run away from me forever.

Lena smiled at Kanita, then headed in, crying out in a sigh of relief, "WHEW! OUt of the rain!"
Rowen rolled his eyes before flipping her hair over her head. Leaving his shoes and umbrella at the door, he walked into the living room where Ryo, Cye and Kento were. Offering a smile, he flashed a thumbs up, basically saying he had gotten the girls inside.
Lena shook her head, walking in behind him, she herself feeling like a rather drowned cat. Arrow, her dog, stepped forth and wagged his tail, then whined at how wet his mistress was. She gave a chuckle as Cye looked up at her, "Towel?"
Lena gave him a pleading look. Cye smiled, "Alright."
That was when it hit. A brief, bright flare of light that caused everyone to nearly drop what they were doing, "What was that?"
Shouts of that short where murmered momentarly as the guys and Lena quickly began to figure out what was going on. The enemy...
kento nearly shouted, "Where did it come from?"
"Gee, if we knew that...would we be flipping out?" Rowen spoke, calm as ever.
"You've been listening to me too much, Ro," Lena spoke, grasping the jewel at her neck that acted as her armor orb, "Kan-chan? We've gotta ask you to stay in here....things aren't quite as calm as we thought they'd be...Remeber what I told you about? Or what you discovered? Eh....keep all this secret too...kay?"
Cye just...well, sighed. Reaching into his pocket, he nodded at the others. Together,Rowen, Cye, Kento and Lena appeared in thier subarmors.

Kale reared back a fist, and punched through the wall of the house. Cement and drywall flew everywhere. He punched again, and a gaping hole appeared in the wall.
"So, we have more than expected here, do we?" Sehkmet said, considering the Ronins before him. "So much the better."
"If you want to run, now is the time to do it," Kale said. In the back of his mind, he thought of the Torn Shadow. He could still it if he wanted...

"Oh!" Lena shielded her face, using her own body as a shield for the innocent in the room, eyes wide in surprise, "Kale!?"
At taht moment, Inigashi appeared with two other spirits from the team that usually swarmed her, Be careful! They want something big time!
Rowen glared, "Sehkmet!"
Cye frowned, starting to pull Kanita away as Kento stood further to the front, "LIke we'd ever run from you, bucket heads!"
Rowen spoke once more, "What do you want, warlords?"
HIs voice was full of anger and frustration as Arrow walked up, wagging his tail slightly, to stand beside his mistress. After all, the Ronins had been fighitng for a while now...this was just getting old.

Finally, Ryo reacts. He reaches into his pocket, looking at the Warlords, then the others.
"Just like old times," he says, "armor up guys. We'll wrap this up in a second."
(still trying to get creativity back)

Kento grinned and nodded, "You got it, Ryo...we'll take these buckets out!"
With that, he brought his hands together before him and shouted, "Dao Gi!" Soon, Kento wore the armor of Hardrock, bearing the familar armor.
Cye sighed, reluctant as he pulled the young Kanita out of the way. HE was just flat out tired of fighting, "Dao Shin!" Torrent rested upon his body not long afterwards.
Rowen frowned, still standing before Lena as he had before, "Very well, here goes....Dao Chi!" Following Cye, Strata was born into reality once more.
LEna glanced about and blinked, "Man....hate to be left out...." She shook her head before calling out, "Dao Iki!" Lena smiled a bit, the dark purple armor once more covering her form, priestess like sleves dangling from her arms. (Heh, see picture. Didn't feel like getting really into it for that one. :big)

Kanita blkinked rapidly and shook her head. 'Now I know that this is not a dream.' She thought as she spotted her book bag. "Here goes nothing." She whispered. As soon as Kanita had a hold of her book bga, the young girl had took out her orb and went into a seperate room, there; THe young girl had called forth her armor. Skipping the sub armor, the young girl was now fully dressed in her armor. 'Kortiko....never thought that I would be using this armor.' She thought with a heavy sigh.
Stepping out of the one room, the young girl slowly began to walk up to Lena. 'Now this is one secret that I have kept from her.' She thought with a grin.

"There is a reason we have come here, Ronin Warriors," Kale sneered. "We are well aware that you will defeat us and any enemy will put in your path. However, this battle is necessary because Lady Tusuki demands it. If you have not heard, she desires your armors to complete her set, in order to re-make the One Armor owned by the Blacksmith so long ago. Don't know what I'm talking about?"
"Perhaps my posion will tell the story," Sehkmet said, drawing his swords.

Ryo growls a bit, calling his armor in a blast of silk and cherry blossoms. He pulls out his own swords, aware that his battle record with Sehkmet wasn't good, but willing to try.
"I don't know who this Tusuki is," Ryo says, "but mark this, she'll have to earn our armors."

"Agreed...." Cye nodded, standing beside his comrades in arms.
Kento pumped his arms, the armor following his every movement as it should, weapon in hand, "Come on now...don't you bad gus ever learn? You can't win against us!"
Lena rolled her eyes, "ANd yet, I'm still far faster then you....tone down the cockyness Kento..."
Kento just gave her a playful, joking glare before returning to the battle, "And we're stronger....your point?"
Lena grinned, "I can still out run you guys. You'd have to catch me first..." She nodded, then turned to Cale, "What makes you think we would hand our armors over that easily?"
Rowen stood beside the girl, agreeing completly. Bow and arrow out in hand, he stood at the ready, "Indeed....Besides. What story could poison tell....when it's not even successful in battle...."
Each of the warriors stood at the ready, determined to win this battle.

"Well this shall be intreasting." Kanita laughed slightly as she stepped into veiw. Her metallic baby blue armor glissened ever so slightly in the housing light, Kanita stood there with her arms crossed and a grin on her face. Though she had her doubts about showing up when she looked at Lena, this caused the girl to semi frown at the thoughts that were in her head.
Kortiko was called the armor of the white wolf. For this fact, even Kanita can not understand it's past story. But yet, the armor had a connection to the four seasonal armors; One that she can not escape from. "Posion can tell a story. But a story of death that one can easily mange to get by on." SHe stated as she looked at Sekhmet. The girl had can unharmed as she was standing between the two groups. This fight to her would seem like nothing but a pitiful cat fight between two groups whom fight for the opposite sides.

"You are not using your brains, Ronins," Sehkmet answered. "Why would we be here if we knew we wouldn't win? Why even show up when defeat is inevitable, as you say? Surely you have realized that we are greatly outnumbered, and yet, here we are."
"You have not considered that is more than one way to capture an armor," Kale said.
Just then, there was a crash from the other side of the house and Batrias, in his white armor, grabbed Lena from behind.

Lena frowned, shifting slightly. Her priestess like sleeves flapped comically as she watched the warlords, "They like to speak in riddles still, don't they?" She then spotted Kanita. Giving a double take, she blinked, then narrowed her eyes, "Kan-chan..you are explaining that after this is over..." Her voice was flat before she turned to face the warlords once more.
"Seems that way," Cye spoke, nodding in comment with the riddle comment.
"Yea, no kidding..." Kento sighed, then pulled his weapon before him, "Hmpf! Bring it on, warlords!"
Uh oh.... Inigashi finally appeared, then shouted, WATCH OUT!
Lena blinked, just starting to turn her attention to him as she felt herself being grabbed, making her speed absolutely useless. The girl cried out in surprise, alerting the others that something more was happening then just destrucion of property, fighting against the hold, "Let go!"
Rowen whirled about, "Lena!" He glared at Batrias, "Let her go!"

Batrias tightened his arms around Lena's shoulders, holding her in a half-nelson. "We have the first!" He shouted to Kale. "This mission is complete!"
"As you say," Sehkmet said, letting poison drop from his swords onto the floor, where it ate away at it.
Then, suddenly, Batrias, Sehkmet, Kale and Lena disappeared.
***
They appeard in Tusuki's chamber, Batrias keeping his hold on Lena.

Lena still squirmed, snaking a hand inside the large sleeves of her armor, trying to reach the Shukusen she had hooked to her arm there. She was unable to reach the ofudas or her prayer beads...and began betting her escape on that. If only she could get indipendant use of her limbs....she could take off and they wouldn't catch her...,"Let me go! EH!"
She still struggled against the hold, even beyond the teleportation used on her, ignoring the clacking of the beads and feathers from her armor's headband against her face.
~*~*~*~*~*
The guys watched in horror as the enemy dissapeared with on of thier number. Cye was the first, "Oh god...."
"Lena-chan..." Kento blinked in surprised.
"Lena!" Rowen shouted out, shocked by all means, but even worse....angry.
