Fan Fiction / Ronin Warriors Fan Fiction ❯ Change in Tides ❯ Winter Twins ( Chapter 6 )

As Moonstriker past Ryo he turned to look at the warlords. How do they know each other? Cale looked at Ryo.

 

“Is something wrong Wildfire?” Ryo shook his head.

 

“I was just wondering how you know them?” Cale nodded in understanding.

 

“That was a long time ago Wildfire. It was shortly after Talpa found me that he decided to join forces with an evil creature known as a Draggones. This Draggone was called Didnao and he had four dark warriors. Talpa hoped that by joining forces they could rule over the realms, but there was one small problem.” Dais nodded.

 

“There were thirteen warriors chosen to protect the realms from an evil like us. Each with their own abilities and armor. Saturn use to be Rainbow Hawk the Ultimate Hawk Warrior, much like the Inferno Armor. Moonstriker was Purple Hawk the Hawk Warrior of water. They banished us from this world and made sure we knew never to come back.” Shekmet looked at Moonstriker. “I remember fight her long ago she was fierce and made sure I felt the pain I caused to those creatures that came into contact with my poison. I still have nightmares about it.” The group fell back into silence as the walked further up beach.

 

Rowan looked up at the two Sun Warriors. Saturn and Moonstriker giggled about something and continued to talk in some type of language that no one besides them seemed to understand. Moonstriker turned her head to look at Rowen and smiled. Rowen then noticed the crescent moon birthmark on Moonstriker's neck. “So that's where she got her name from.”

 

“Huh?” Moonstriker turned to face Rowen but continued to walk next to Saturn.

 

“Oh um…your birthmark. That's how you got your name right?” Moonstriker grinned as she fell into step with Rowen.

 

“Actually my ancestor Moonfire chose my name.”

 

“Really?” Rowen's eyes widen.

 

“Yup. Just like Princess Satrina chose Saturn's name.”

 

“So you know your ancestors?”

 

“Not exactly. It's kind of complicated.” Rowen nodded.

 

“So who are these winter twins?”

 

“The warriors of wind and ice. They're best friends and inseparable that's why they called the winter twins. One is Saturn's younger brother and the other is our cousin.”

 

Cousin how can a royalty be related to a protector? The Salorians weren't related so how are these young ones? Kayura stared at Moonstriker in disbelief and Rowan must have read Kayura's thoughts.

 

“OUR cousin?” Moonstriker raised her eyebrows at Rowen's confusion. Then it dawned on her.

 

“Oh I forgot. The seven of us are all related. Cousins. Siblings. You name it.” Rowen looked towards Saturn who just nodded as she stopped near the water's edge. The nearby island looked like it was covered in snow. Saturn began to walk out into the water but it was like she was walking on air. She looked at Dais and nodded. Dais followed Saturn's footsteps till he stood next to her.

 

“It's some type of bridge.” A splash interrupted the group as they looked to see Moonstriker swimming towards the island.

 

“Typical water warrior.” Saturn turned back towards the island and led the group onto the snow-covered surface. Even though it was warm out you could feel the cold breeze of the island. Mia shivered slightly.

 

“How is it so cold here Saturn?”

 

“Don't know. All I know is that it's been like this forever.” Saturn walked a head of the group scanning the scenery for something. “Where are those...” Saturn quickly whipped around to face the group. Her eyes were wide and she seemed to be at a loss for words. Pluto, you idiot!

 

“Saturn what's…” Before Moonstriker could finish the question she turned to face Saturn's shoulder. Ryo wanted to know what was wrong with the two warriors that stood before him. He began to walk forward but stopped as Saturn raised her hand. She shook her head letting him know not to come forward. She looked back over her shoulder and cleared her throat.

 

“Saturn? Moon?” A male's voice came from the direction that Saturn and Moonstriker looked away from. Soon a girl wearing a silvery armor much like the Ronin's sub armor appeared and hugged Moonstriker.

 

“What are you two doing here?” She smiled but then soon locked eyes with the group not far from the two Sun Warriors. “Saturn?”

 

“Meet the Ronin Warriors and company Snow.” The girl bowed. Soon a young man in black armor appeared with a cocky grin on his face. “Causing trouble brother?”

 

“I would never do such a thing Saturn.” He looked a lot like Saturn and his black armor looked exactly like Saberstryke's only without the cape. His green eyes remind Sage of his armor in fact they almost seemed to glow.

 

Another royalty but a prince that's odd I thought all the Salorians were female. Kayura glanced at the young prince and smiled.

 

“Sure young prince.” Moonstriker turned to face her cousin. “Snow how do you put up with him?”

 

“Good question Moon.” Saturn's brother stood opened mouth at the young girl. “I'm kidding Pluto. Now be nice and introduce yourself to your sister's friends.”

 

“Snowflake.” Pluto sounded annoyed but turned towards the group. “I'm Prince Pluto. The Sun Warrior of ice and righteousness.” He then looked away as if he wasn't interested in knowing the group.

 

“Snowflake, where the Guardian?” Saturn looked over at Snowflake.

 

Guardian? Must be another protector. Kayura watched as Snowflake pondered the question for a moment.

 

“The last time I saw her she was with her brother and Icestorm.” Soon the clang of metal was heard nearby. “That might be them. Saturn look out!” Just as Saturn dodged out of the way a young man in the same armor as Snowflake came flying backwards and landed at Mia's feet. His grey eyes shot open. He smiled at Mia and quickly sat up.

 

“Sorry if I hit you.”

 

“You didn't.”

 

“Good. You're gonna pay for that Nep!” Soon a girl in blue armor appeared from behind Pluto.

 

“I doubt that.” She smirked and raised her trident like spear to rest on her shoulder. Her red hair was pulled into a messy bun and she had loose hairs that fell over her face. But the one thing that the group noticed right away was her eyes. They looked exactly like Shark's but they didn't contain the lifelessness. “You're just mad that I beat you Ice.”

 

“Whatever.” The warrior stood up and then turned to Mia. “Are you sure I didn't hurt you?”

 

“Yes. I'm Mia.” Mia couldn't help but melt in this man's gaze.

 

“Name's Icestorm.” He bowed and then turned his attention back to the blue armored warrior. “I could have hurt her.”

 

“You wouldn't have besides you can't tell me that Saturn doesn't have them protected.” The warrior stepped back and raised her spear above her shoulder then threw her spear at Mia. Mia flinched but noticed that no pain came. She opened her to find the spear lying on the ground away from her. “See I told you so.” Icestorm glared at the warrior.

 

“You're such a brat.” The warrior just smiled at Icestorm.

 

“That brat is my sister Icestorm.” A young man wearing armor identical to Icestorm's appeared next to the blue armor warrior. “You would think you two were the siblings and not us.” Mia noticed that the warrior had the same eyes as his sister. “My name's Snowstorm by the way.” He then nudged his sister.

 

“What?”

 

“How about you name and your weapon?” He pointed to her spear. She rolled her eyes and held out her hand. The spear vanished and reappeared in her hand.

 

“I'm Guardian Neptune warrior of wind and truth.” She looked at her brother. “Are you happy now?”

 

“Yes.” He shook his head. “So Saturn what are you doing here anyway?”

 

Saturn glanced over at Snowstorm. “The Ronins need to speak to us. So I'm trying to get everyone together but it's not that easy.”

 

“Well who exactly are the Ronins, princess?” Icestorm looked at the group.

 

“Those five.” Saturn pointed to Sage, Cye, Kento, Rowen, and Ryo.

 

“So the others are?”

 

“Their friends.” Saturn was getting annoyed by Icestorm and it was obvious that someone could realize that.

 

“Icestorm stop annoying Saturn.” A young woman appeared next to Snowflake. “Saturn instead of worrying about everyone in this group why don't we take all but the five back to the valley for you.” The young woman was kind through her words but her eyes blazed with fiery rage. Her armor matched Snowflake's and her long brown hair flowed over her shoulders.

 

“That sounds okay with me, but to be honest Icicle it's up to them.” Icicle turned to the group.

 

“I think we should go with them.” Mia looked at Ryo. “That way you can find the others faster.”

 

“Plus if we see the Ancient Warrior or Star we will point them in your direction.” Icicle was glad that there wasn't going to be a fight about separating the group.

 

“All right you guys go with them and we'll stay with the Sun Warriors.” Ryo didn't like the idea but knew it was the right thing to do.
