Silent Warrior
Episode 13
“I am not pleased with how you are not progressing,” King Mithos says to Goliath. “You have collected a lot of energy since beginning this mission, but you have failed at finding the Dark Crystal, the Zinzuishou, and failed at preventing those Brothers from stopping your plans. You have also allowed the third Brother Soldier to be found and are now holding us back. If you cannot succeed, I will have to rectify your mistakes.”

That night, TJ is looking out the window thinking about Miranda and Yellow LightStar.
“Wouldn't it be great if they were the same person?” he asks himself.
Just as he's about to pass out for bed, an image of Goliath appears in the sky.
“Brother Soldiers, it is time to settle this once and for all,” he says. “At 1am tomorrow, you are to meet me at Valhalla Airport Base. If you don't, I will burn the Floating City of Valhalla to the ground!”
He then snaps his fingers and all the buildings catch on fire.
United we Stand! Use the Power of Three
TJ and Tyrese are at the Masaki shrine discussing with Styve what just happened.
“I can't believe he had the nerve to call us out like that,” Styve complains. “I say we go meet him and face him head on.”
“I don't know Styve, it may be a trap,” Tyrese says. “We need to think this through. At least the city on fire was just an illusion.”
“I'm worried about this myself,” TJ adds. “I think we should call his bluff and not go.”
The next day at school, everyone is talking about it. Prometheus has decided to accompany TJ to school, just in case anything was to happen.
“The way everyone is talking about this, they might all go and end up caught in the battle,” TJ says to the cat. “Maybe I shouldn't go at all.”
“TJ?” Prometheus says.
“Relax; I'm just kidding about that.”
“What do you think about it TJ?” a friend asks him.
“I think it's just a big joke or publicity stunt for Silent Warrior.”
“It must be aliens!” Marcy interjects.
“You've been watching too many movies lately,” Melvin comments.
“Well I want to go and see for myself,” another friend says.
“I don't think that's a good idea,” TJ says. “If you have time to be out and about playing at night, you should be at home studying. What would Silent Warrior do?”
“TJ are you feeling alright?” Mr. Karr asks, checking his forehead. “You actually said something that didn't involve being lazy or self centered or eating.”

Later, at Game Edge, TJ is talking to Miranda about the whole thing. She agreed with what Mr. Karr said about him feeling alright.
“Don't take it personal T,” she says. “I like it when you're your usual self and not like everyone else.”
TJ is happy and leaves the arcade. On his way home, he's jumping around when his shoe flies off and hits someone.
“Oh, I'm sorry…oh it's you,” TJ says.
“Yeah, thanks a lot Tiny Tim,” Ashley says. “Nice to see you too. Do you hit everyone in the streets or do you have a thing for me?”
“Please, nobody likes your funky don't know you're white, ass.”
“Ha, don't hate me because you can't have none of this. You know, you should try to be like normal guys and not hit people with your shoes.”
“I like being who I am,” TJ says, “and apparently, so does someone else.”
“That person must be dumber than anyone in the world.”
“Hey that's not nice now! You can say all the mean things you want to about me, but don't bring Miranda into this mess!”

That night, Goliath shows up at the airport and puts all the staff under a spell. At the subway station, TJ, Tyrese, and Styve appear to find the whole station empty.
“Hey, something's coming,” Styve points out.
A lone train comes up to them and is completely empty. They get in and it takes them to the Airport. The guys get off the train and go out to the tarmac.
“There are a lot of guards and police here,” Tyrese comments, looking around.
“I feel a strange force here,” Styve comments.
“Guys watch out!” TJ yells out.
The guards begin to attack the guys, so the guys start fighting back. Styve uses his anti-evil scrolls and puts them down.
“I wonder why the police are after us,” TJ wonders.
“Something isn't right here. Dark Ice Power!”
“Hey, now there's an idea! Dark Fire Power!”
More guards appear and start attacking the two transformed guys.
“Hold on, I'll help out too. Phoenix Transform!”
Dark Sabre analyzes the guards on his palm pilot, and finds out they're nothing but sand creatures.
“Dark Fires Engulf!”
Dark Blade blasts the guards, taking care of them with his dark fire.
“Well now, that was easy,” Silent Warrior says.
“Yeah because we did all the work,” Dark Blade says.
“So, three young boys still in high school are the Brother Soldiers,” Goliath says, appearing not too far in front of them.
“Oh no, now he knows who we are outside of battle!” Dark Sabre proclaims.
“It doesn't matter anyways; you're all going to die!”
He uses his power of manipulation to cause some planes to start moving towards them.
“I can take care of those with my fire,” Dark Blade says, prepping for his attack.
“Wait, don't do that,” Prometheus says. “You'll never be able to pay back the airport if you destroy them.”
The guys start to run away from the planes, but they eventually run out of places to run.
“The ocean is this way, and the planes are behind us,” Silent Warrior says. “Neither one of you two can fly, and I can't carry the both of you.”
“So I finally have you three cornered,” Goliath laughs. “Now it's time to die!”
“I don't think so you freakish Youkai Demon!” a voice calls out.
A card strikes before the planes, and they stop moving. Goliath looks up to see Yellow LightStar standing on a post holding another card.
“You think you can stop me, foolish mortal?” Goliath asks.
“Let's just see where your strength is,” she replies.
He jumps over to her and attacks her with his demon lance. She dodges out of the way and round house kicks the lance away. He then tackles her and they both fall into the water at the end of the runway. The guys run up to the water and then Goliath flies out.
“Looks like I'm the victor!” he exclaims.
He then starts the planes again and the guys start running.
“We can't keep running you know,” Prometheus says. “We need to do something about this, and fast.”
“Ok then Silent Warrior, you be the decoy,” Dark Blade says. “I know quite a bit about these Youkai Demon Knights, just follow my lead.”
He protests, but does it anyways and the planes start following him.
“Dark Mist Paralyze!”
Dark Sabre uses his mist to confuse Goliath, and he gets very upset.
“You won't be able to stop me like this!” he yells, flapping his wings to clear the air.
“We've had just about enough of you. I call upon the power of fire. Help me to purge this unclean soul back into purgatory. Dark Fires Engulf!”
Dark Blade places the scroll on his back, and the planes start to chase him.
“This is impossible; I won't be defeated by inferior beings!” he cries. “How could such a scroll be able to stop a great demon warrior such as myself?”
The dagger then strikes before him and everything stops.
“Don't think us humans are foolish. Just because we may cry at times, or runaway or even hide, it doesn't mean we won't come up with a way to defeat our conflicts. We are not slaves to our emotions: our power comes from those emotions, and that's what makes us strong. It is time that you, Goliath: 1st Youkai Demon Knight of the Tao Dynasty, learned how to repent for your sins. I, Silent Warrior, shall come and rectify your insolence towards my planet.”
“So this is what it comes down to…defeated by a bunch of kids…”
“This hand of mine is burning red! Fist of the Phoenix Flare!”
Frozen by the combined power of the mist and the scroll, Goliath takes the attack full on. When the light from it fades, he is gone.
Goliath reappears in front of King Mithos, barely making it to his throne.
“Your excellence, I have discovered the identities of the Brother Soldiers,” he says. “Now we can attack them when they…”
“Goliath, you failed me again,” King Mithos says, ignoring his ranting. “I told you that if you were to fail me again, I would have to deal with you.”
“But wait, Lord Mithos…”
“I hear by denounce you, Goliath: 1st general of the Youkai Demon Knighthood, to this sentence. You are immediately relieved of your duties as a soldier in my army.”
King Mithos' eyes start glowing, and Goliath lights up. In a blinding flash he is gone…
“Sacred, clean up this mess,” King Mithos commands. “You know what to do with his gem.”
* * *
The Brother Soldiers are relieved they defeated Goliath, and are now looking for Yellow LightStar.
“She's got to be around here somewhere,” Silent Warrior says.
They walk up to the water just as a light comes out of it. Yellow LightStar then jumps out.
“Yellow LightStar, why do you always help us?” Dark Sabre asks.
“Probably because she can't resist my irresistible man charm,” Silent Warrior answers.
“Who are you?” Dark Blade asks, ignoring Silent Warrior.
“I'm sorry, I can't reveal that just yet,” she answers. “Silent Warrior, Dark Blade, and Dark Sabre: you must be strong in this long fight. There will be more enemies to come. Never let your guard down, and remember: if forced to, we must fight, for what we believe in.”
She then walks off as the guys watch her…
