Fan Fiction / Ronin Warriors Fan Fiction ❯ Change in Tides ❯ Becoming Allies ( Chapter 9 )

 

“ENOUGH!” everyone turned to see Swanalow staring at them all. “Red Hawk you have no right to come in here and treat your sister like she's a child.” Starfire smiled feeling she had won this argument. “And you Starfire have no right to tell Red Hawk he can't see his sister.” Swanalow stepped towards Starfire. “We have guests and you two are fighting like old times. Enough from both of you.” Starfire snapped her wrist causing the staff to disappear and Red Hawk returned his weapon to his hip.

 

“Thank you Swanalow.” Green Hawk emerged from behind Neptune.

 

“Anytime Green Hawk. Now Orange Hawk I think Sinotaa and Roccao can take the Ronins and their friends from here.” Swanalow turned back towards Neptune. “Guardian can I speak with you?” Neptune nodded and followed Swanalow away from the group. A young man and woman approached Orange Hawk who smiled.

 

“They're all yours Sinotaa.” The woman nodded and bowed to the group.

 

“Mia, Kayura. You two can come with me. I'll help you clean up.” Mia and Kayura followed Sinotaa down a near by hallway. The young man bowed to the rest of the group and introduced himself as Roccao.

 

“Let's get you cleaned up and changed. Then I can show you around the castle.” Ryo and the others nodded as followed the Roccao away from the Sun Warriors and Hawk Warriors. The hallway was lined with paintings and doorways that led to unknown rooms. Some distance down the hallway Rowen stopped. Peering through the open doorway he saw the large library. He also saw a young girl with white armor browsing through a stack of books. “Hello young White Hawk.” The girl looked up and smiled.

 

“Good to see you Roccao. I heard Swanalow yell at Star and Red.” Roccao nodded. “And I'm going to assume these are the Ronin Warriors.” Roccao nodded once again. “They seem okay. I guess Pluto is overreacting again.”

 

“More then likely White Hawk.” The girl laughed. “You're here because of tonight's dinner I suppose.”

 

“You know it. King Eagator would be more then upset if only some of the warriors of this realm attended.” Roccao chuckled to White Hawk's comment. “You know I'm right. Besides Swanalow needs all the support she can get. If I know her brother like I do he'll have some kind of suitor here to try and sweep his sister off her feet.” White Hawk rolled her eyes and glanced at a nearby book. “I'll see you later Roccao.”

 

“Yes young one. Come gentleman.” The group took one last look at White Hawk before following Roccao to a large room near the end of the hall. The room had many beds and what appeared to be large closets. The bathroom had three showers and a large full length mirror. The group couldn't help but gasp. “You will be able to clean up before dinner tonight. I'll help you dress properly for the event.” Roccao began to leave when a question arose to Kento.

 

“Why are we invited to this dinner?” Roccao smiled at the bearer of Hardrock.

 

“Simple Swanalow thinks that you will be able to get to know the allies of this realm and possibly gain some. Besides its fun and the Sun and Hawk Warriors will make you feel at home.” Roccao left the group to their thoughts.

 

“So now what?” Cale looked out a large window to see the village below.

 

“I guess we get cleaned up and wait fro Roccao to returned.” Ryo entered the bathroom and returned to his normal clothes. Soon the Ronins finished showering and waited for Roccao's return. Kento's stomach growled and the group couldn't sustain their laughter.

 

“So Kento you really like Neptune?” Sage thought it was odd that Kento like the redheaded warrior.

 

“Yeah. She's definitely cute and kind of mysterious. But I don't think I have a chance.” Kento sighed as he fell back on the bed. “But at least I can watch her from afar.” Sage shrugged as he turned to look at Cye.

 

“So Cye what do you think Starfire and Moonstriker had to talk about?” Cye looked at Sage with curiosity. “I mean she did blush when Starfire looked at you.”

 

“It's probably nothing Sage. I'm more worried about Sun and Orange Hawk.” The door being opened interrupted the group's conversation.

 

“I see you're ready. Now to dress you.” Roccao looked at each of the young men before he nodded and snapped his fingers. A tingling sensation swept of the group as their everyday street clothes faded away and was replaced by nice looking clothes. The clothes matched the colors of the armors that they normally would wear. “I think that will do nicely.” Roccao turned back towards the door. “Come. The ladies await.” The group stepped out of the room to see Pluto leaning against the wall. His outfit was different from theirs.

 

His black shirt fit to him revealing his muscular arms and his pants hung loosely enough to make him look comfortable. His silver crown was slightly hidden underneath his hair as his hands rubbed the emblem on his shirt. It was a silver snake wrapped around sword. Pluto looked up at the group and gave a small smile. “Not bad Roccao. They almost look like they belong.” Ryo shook his head knowing that Pluto still didn't trust them. “Well come on.” Pluto led them back to the large dining room that they had been in hours before. Kento felt like he was in heaven when he saw all the food on the table.

 

“Pluto.” White Hawk walked towards the group and embraced the young prince.

 

“Hey White. Glad you're here.” White Hawk stood back to look at Pluto and the rest of the group. She wore a plain white dress with a golden dragon traveling from shoulder to shoulder. Her long blonde hair was tied back into a braid. “Not bad. Definitely better then what I saw earlier.” The group blushed at White Hawk's compliment. “See Pluto they're harmless.” White Hawk touched Pluto's cheek and winked. “Trust me on this old friend. Dragons have instincts that snakes don't.” White Hawk walked away from the group and towards what appeared to be Red Hawk.

 

“Just going to stand there brother?” Sage and the others turned to see Saturn standing not far from them. Her blonde hair was up in a messy bun that gave her a look of authority yet made her appear more beautiful then before. Her white dress made her look like an angel more then her armor did and the group couldn't help but be amazed by her beauty.

 

“No Saturn. I just think that…”

 

“White Hawk is wrong?” Pluto glared at his sister. “I know you hate it when I do that.” Saturn walked up to Cale. “Come now Warlord.” Saturn took Cale's arm and led him away from the group.

 

“Stupid sister.” Pluto shook his head as Saturn introduced Cale to a small group near the table.

 

“Now Pluto be nice.” Pluto glanced over to see Starfire approaching him.

 

“Hey Star.” Pluto scanned the room as Starfire lightly punched him in the arm.

 

“She's here calm down.” Starfire looked at Ryo and smiled. “I see he's still being a jerk.” Ryo smiled at Starfire. “Come now Pluto you should follow your sister's example and show these boys around and introduce them to some of our allies.” Starfire just shook her head when Pluto didn't respond to her. Starfire wore a black pants and yellow shirt that had the emblem of a Pegasus embedded in a star. The shirt was sleeveless and hugged Starfire nicely revealing the curves she had. Starfire extended her hands to Kento and Sage. Sage and Kento reluctantly took the warrior's hands and let her lead them towards Orange Hawk.

 

Soon Snowflake walked up to Pluto taking his arm in her own. She smiled at Cye. “You should join the others. Come Shekmet I'll help you get to know some of the residents of this valley.” Snowflake looped her other arm around Shekmet's and led him and Pluto away from Ryo and the others.

 

“So now what do we do Ryo?” Rowen watched as Kento tried to eat some food from the table only to be slapped away by Sun. Sun wore a purple dress that had the design of the phoenix on it. She joked with Sage and winked at Ryo.

 

“Maybe we should try to join them?” Ryo began to step forward when a hand touched his shoulder.

 

“Ryo?” Ryo turned to face Mia and Kayura. They both looked beautiful. Mia wore a simple red dress that clung to her just right. Ryo felt himself blush as thoughts of Mia ran through his mind. Ryo was hoping Rowen would save him from the embarrassment he was experiencing but noticed that Rowen was watching Sage. “So what do you think?”

 

You look perfect. Ryo shook his thoughts away. “You look great Mia.” Mia smiled at Ryo.

 

“You don't look too bad yourself.” Mia reached out to take Ryo's hand but stopped when a voice called out her name.

 

“Mia.” It was the Ancient Warrior. She didn't look so tough like she did in her armor. Her black hair was in a high ponytail. Her black shirt and pink pants revealed the muscles that the armor did manage to hide. “Wow Mia. You look great.”

 

“Me? Look at you Ancient Warrior. You are beautiful.” Uranus just shrugged.

 

“I'm nothing compared to Saturn. But I think you look just as beautiful as her.” Mia smiled at Uranus. “You too Kayura.”

 

“Thank you Uranus. Where are Neptune and Moonstriker?” The mention of Moonstriker's name caught Cye's attention.

 

“There.” Uranus pointed towards the large balcony doors that led outside. Neptune was leaning against the doorframe staring up at the sky. She wore black pants like Starfire but her blue shirt ended just below her knees. Two slits started at the hem of the shirt and traveled up to her waist where it stopped. Ryo glanced at Kento and saw that he had noticed the wind warrior nearby.

 

“What about Moonstriker?” Rowen looked around the room to try and spot the water warrior.

 

“Oh. She's over there with Queen Unicorn.” Uranus pointed over to a young woman who was talking to the young water warrior. Cye couldn't stop the gasp that passed his lips. Moonstriker was radiant. Her brown hair covered her shoulders as her red spaghetti strap shirt shown off the curves she had. The black skirt ended just above her knees revealing her smooth legs. Cye couldn't help but stare at her in awe. Uranus noticed the way Cye stared at her cousin and felt it was time to intervene. “Torrent right?”

 

“Well it's Cye of Torrent.” Uranus took Cye's arm and drug him towards Moonstriker.

 

“So you can easily see the importance of this Moonstriker. Oh hello my young wolf.” Moonstriker turned to see Uranus and Cye standing next to her and Queen Unicorn.

 

“Hello your highness. This is Cye of Torrent one of the Ronin Warriors. Cye this is Queen Unicorn, queen of the valley of wolves.”

 

“Pleasure to meet you your majesty.” Cye bowed to the wolf queen.

 

“The pleasure is mine young Torrent. Now if you will excuse me young ones.” Unicorn left and Moonstriker glanced at her cousin.

 

“So Moon why don't you show Torrent around while I go help the others.” Uranus quickly left Moonstriker alone with Cye.

 

“But Uranus. Damn it.” Moonstriker looked at Cye and smiled. “I think they quickly forget we can't touch each other. So what do you think of our home?”

 

“It's beautiful.” Cye stared at Moonstriker. Just like you.

 

“So Kento likes Neptune?”

 

“Yeah. She doesn't seem too happy about it.” Moonstriker walked towards the large doors that led out to a balcony.

 

“That's just Neptune. At least there is one thing I can say about you five being here.” Moonstriker leaned on the railing over looking the valley.

 

“What's that?” Cye leaned backwards as he looked at the young water warrior.

 

“That you five are the new allies we needed in this war.” Moonstriker smiled at Cye who happily returned her smiled.
