Silent Warrior: The Phoenix' Flames

Episode 91

In the dark, underground laboratory, Professor King is working on another Youma egg.

“Krys-tal, come here,” he calls out. “Now, what is our ultimate purpose as the Order of the Revelation?”

“To find the Sacred Crest, and to conquer the world,” Krys-tal answers.

“Very good. In order to find the Sacred Crest, we must first find the three talismans of the Amazon.”

“The three Amazon Talismans are sealed inside the Pure Heart Crystals of three chosen individuals.”

“Exactly, and that is why I have summoned and am in the process of altering a large amount of Youma eggs.”

As he and Krys-tal do the evil villain laugh bit, a Youma egg floats out of the lab to the next possessor of a pure heart.

The Phoenix' Flames gives Light to a new Armor and a New Power

In a nightmare, TJ relives the moment when he loses his transformation and his ability to use the Dark Crystal. The crystal goes from a shimmering black, to a clear, transparent gray. His transformation is then done backwards, turning him back into TJ.

“The light from the Zinzuishou is fading!” TJ exclaims.

As the crystal then shatters and blows away in the dust, Styve, Damon, Tyrese, and Tyrone appear.

“This is what happens when you try to be smarter than you can be,” Tyrese says.

“Yeah nigga, you've been working too hard,” Damon says.

“Maybe you haven't been getting enough naps in class,” Tyrone states.

“Maybe it's time for you to retire…for good this time!” Styve points out.

At Styve's comment, TJ gets really mad because he thought the “I want to be leader” situation was ancient history. Still dreaming, TJ grabs Prometheus (he's sleeping on TJ's bed), and starts strangling him. Prometheus immediately brings him back to his senses by clawing up his face.

“Sorry Promeeth,” he says, coming around. “I'm afraid that the Dark Crystal has lost its power, and I don't know what I should do. After inheriting the spirit of Lord Katsuhito, and fully powering up the Sword of Destruction: Lyger Xero, which was lost in the battle against Lucas the Angel of Darkness, and powering up the Sword of Power, the Dark Crystal finally got it's full power back. How am I going to fight the new enemy if I can't transform? DarkStar isn't as strong as Silent Warrior.”

“Don't worry, everything will be alright,” Prometheus says. “You lost your transformation before; you'll get it back again. Maybe you should talk to Ashley.”

Later that morning, in the park, TJ tells Ashley about the dream.

“Hmm, we need to think this over,” she says after hearing the whole story. “I know just the place to think about this too.”

“I wonder what's going to happen to me,” TJ sulks. “If I can't transform, I can't beat this new enemy.”

She grabs his arm, and drags him to an old, run-down and abandoned mansion. They get into the courtyard by going through a hole in one of the sidewalls.

“Ashley, should we be doing this?” TJ asks, concerned.

“Probably not,” Ashley replies.

“Why would she bring me to a place like this?” TJ thinks himself. “Maybe she wants to be alone to…”

“Ashley, we didn't have to come all the way out here to be alone,” TJ says slyly.

“Don't get any wrong ideas,” Ashley says, off in the background.

TJ then closes his eyes, and starts to undo his belt, expecting a kiss and a little more. Ashley then puts a kitten up to his face, and it licks him.

“What the hell was that?” TJ asks, jumping back as his pants fall.

He then notices the kitten, and pulls his pants up and buckles his belt back.

“This abandoned house is where all these stray kittens are staying,” Ashley explains. “TJ, what kind of girl do you think I am?”

“Let's go inside and look at the other cats,” TJ suggests, ignoring the question and adjusting his pants.

Inside the house, a little girl about 8 years old is feeding the cats.

“So, you're the one who's been feeding these cats,” TJ says in his Silent Warrior voice.

“Huh, who's there?” the girl asks.

“I'm a friend of justice, and a man of stealth. I help out people, and that means you. I'm TJ!” he has the introduction music and even does the pose too!

“Hi, I'm Ashley,” Ashley says, holding a bag of cat food.

She hands TJ the bag, and they both walk over to the girl and start feeding the cats.

“I'm Missy,” says the girl. “Soon, this house is going to be torn down, and then the cats won't have anywhere to go.”

“I'll do something to make sure these cats get a home,” TJ says, determined.

At Missy's apartment, a Youma egg flies in through the open window and forges itself with a puzzle Missy is working on. The puzzle has a picture of a cat on it.

* * *

Later, at the Masaki Shrine, TJ tells the others about the cats.

“Could each of you take at least one?” he asks.

“Sorry, B, but you'll have to count me out,” Tyrone says, being the first to decline. “Athena is already enough to handle.”

She begins to protest, but he covers her mouth.

“I can't take any either, T,” Styve says, hitting a tree, causing birds to fly out. “The Masaki Shrine at Manchester Farms is practically a bird sanctuary.”

“What about you two,” TJ asks, looking at Tyrese and Damon.

“Well, I live in a condo with a roommate, and I think he's allergic to cats,” Damon says, lying about the roommate.

“How come I've never seen him?” TJ asks.

“Because he's always out whenever you come over?” Damon asks nervously.

“And I'm too busy studying for tests, so I can't afford to divert my attention or energy to one more thing. Being a Brother is hard enough,” Tyrese says.

“You niggas only think about yourselves,” TJ complains.

“How come you're not taking any?” Styve asks.

“Well, uh, I can barely afford Prometheus. I mean between him, and Prince, we never have any food in the house.”

Prometheus begins to object about his eating habits when Tyrese stuffs a sandwich in his mouth. Chomping down on the sandwich, Prometheus stretches out on the ground.

“We can take a little more time finding owners for these cats,” Tyrese says.

Everyone agrees, and TJ goes off to get more cat food.

“What's this all about?” Athena asks Prometheus.

“He's just being whimsical as usual,” he replies, rolling on his back as Tyrese scratches him.

* * *

Missy is on her way home, and two cats are following her. She tries to get them to leave, but they refuse. She decides to let them stay until her mom gets home. As soon as she opens the door to her room, one kitten jumps on the bed, and the other one jumps onto her puzzle on her desk. Doing this, the cat accidentally puts some of the pieces in their correct spot.

“Oh wow, I wonder if I can finish the puzzle now,” Missy says, picking up the last piece.

As soon as she places the last piece in, the puzzle lights up, and a Youma appears.

“Ah, a monster!”

“Nekonneru, is the name, pure hearts is my game,” the Youma says.

Nekonneru is a human cat type demon with purple and white fur. She begins to attack Missy, but Missy dodges her and runs out of the building. As Nekonneru follows her, she slams the door on her tail. The tail breaks off into little puzzle pieces. Nekonneru walks towards the pieces, and they go back into her tail. Missy runs back to the abandoned house and Nekonneru follows.

Meanwhile, TJ and the other four are outside in the back yard of the abandoned house, playing with the kittens.

“I wonder if she's not going to show up today,” TJ says, talking about Missy.

“Maybe I'll keep one for myself,” Styve says, thinking aloud.

“Why just one, why not a whole litter?”

“This isn't a clearance sale at the mall,” Damon says.

The cats then hear Missy scream from inside the house. The guys don't hear it, but they notice the cats all running back inside, so they follow. Inside, Nekonneru has revealed the black star on her upper thigh, and is trying to extract the Heart Crystal.

“Guys, time to go to work,” Prometheus says as they all enter the room.

“Right. Avalon, Dark Crystal Power!”

Nothing happens.

“It's ok TJ, we'll take care of this,” Tyrese says.

“Dark Fire-Dagger Power!”

Using the dagger created by his will to save his shrine and grandma, Styve holds up his fist and fire surrounds it, and then he grabs the dagger from the air. Fire bursts from it, and surrounds his body. His body then goes up in flames, and when the fire fades, he is in his new outfit. His uniform consists of red boots, black pants with a red stripe on both sides of his legs, a red, skin tight shirt with the kanji of fire inside a black circle over his heart, black and red gloves with the fingers cut out, and a red headband with the old symbol of fire on it. His headband covers his new symbol, revealing the old flame symbol, and he does his ending pose.

“Dark Lightning-Dagger Power!”

Using the dagger created by his will of believing in himself, Damon holds his fist up, and lightning surges around it. He then grabs the dagger out of the air. Lightning bolts strike him, and he turns into a pure light. The light flashes, and then makes up his new uniform. His uniform consists of green boots, black pants with a green stripe on both sides of his legs, a green, skin tight shirt with the kanji of lightning inside a white circle over his heart, black and green gloves with the fingers cut out, and a green headband with the old symbol of lightning on it. His new sign of lightning appears, followed by a headband covering it up with the old symbol.

“Dark Ice-Dagger Power!”

Using the dagger created from his will to fight, Tyrese holds his fist up, and ice swirls around it. He then opens his hand, and catches the dagger, which comes flying up from somewhere. Once he grabs it, blue light spills from it and washes over his entire body. Ice collects on his body, and then shatters, revealing a new outfit. His uniform consists of blue boots, black pants with a blue stripe on both sides of his legs, a blue, skin tight shirt with the kanji of water inside a white circle over his heart, black and blue gloves with the fingers cut out, and a blue headband with the old symbol of water on it. He also now has a cape which has the symbol of water on it as well. The sequence ends with his symbol lighting up, then a headband covering it with the original sign of ice/water, and then the pose.

“Dark Dagger Power!”

Using the dagger created from his will to fight, Tyrone holds his fist up as power surges through it. He then grabs his dagger from the air. Energy swirls around him, and then forms to his body. His outfit is then created. His uniform consists of orange and black boots, black pants with an orange stripe on both sides, a black, skin tight shirt with the kanji of Justice in orange inside an orange circle over his heart, black and orange gloves with the fingers cut out, and a black headband with the symbol of power on it. He also has a black cape that has the outline of two wings on it, which is also printed on his back. He still has the belt around his chest, and his sword has on his back, under the cape.

Each of the guys transforms and races off to get to Missy.

“This time, this Pure Heart Crystal will be ours,” Nekonneru says.

“No way!” the Brothers yell.

“Dark Celestial Fires Release!”

Dark Blade creates a circle around himself, much like the fire attack Tauro Demos uses. He then pulls his hands back, and the fire energy charges. The circle then changes to Japanese symbols written in fire. When he says “release,” the flames and symbols attach to his hand and then shoot forth in a twin-beam action.

“Dark Thunder Bolt Jolt!”

Dark Knight's earring light's up as his lightning rod extends, and then he brings his hands together, showing electrical energy. He then pulls back his right hand with the energy in a ball, and throws it like a baseball at lightning speed.

The combined attack looks like a baseball made of lightning with fire swirling around it. Unfortunately for them, Nekonneru uses her tail to bat the attack back at the group, knocking them all on the ground.

“I've got to do something,” TJ says, charging at the Youma.

She throws him against a wall, and then finishes extracting Missy's Heart Crystal. Just as she is about to walk off with it, a dark red ball and then a dark blue ball hit her, causing her to break apart. Two shadows then appear.

“That was far two easy,” one shadow says. “Such a powerless being.”

“We've seen those two before,” Prometheus states.

“Is this a Pure Heart Crystal?” the other shadow asks.

“No, it's just the pure heart of an innocent person; let her keep it,” the other one responds.

“I guess we keep looking then.”

“I wonder who those two could be,” Dark Warrior says.

The first shadow then throws the crystal back to Missy, and then the two begin to leave. In the background, Nekonneru is reforming itself.

“Wait,” Dark Warrior calls out. “That monster isn't destroyed yet. If you two are soldiers, fight with us!”

“Make no mistake about this nigga,” the first shadow calls out. “We're not here to help you, or to join your little fan club.”

“Yeah, so stop bothering us, and solve your own problems,” the second shadow says, as the two disappear into the sunlight.

The Youma has completely recovered, and has split its tail into four tails. It then grabs the Brothers and slings them against the walls. Nekonneru then starts to go after TJ, who is trying to protect an unconscious Missy.

“Star Slinger! How dare you, attacking little girls who are defenseless. Those who toy with pure hearts will someday be tried by those same pure hearts. I, Yellow LightStar, will have none of this!”

Yellow LightStar destroys the tail with one shot from her slinger. The Youma then starts to head towards her, but she uses her Astral Sword and pins her up against the wall. Nekonneru gives Yellow LightStar a smirk, and then knocks the sword away and jumps at her. She then claws her up real good, good enough to make her mask come off!

“TJ, you have to get out of here,” Yellow LightStar says as she throws her trademark card at the Youma, paralyzing it temporarily. “Please leave now, before she recovers.”

“No Ashley, I could never do that,” TJ responds. “I need to stay here and help fight with you and the others.”

TJ then takes her hand.

“I will never leave my true love,” he says.

Suddenly, a light begins to shine from their hands. Nekonneru jumps toward the two, but the light deflects her. Suddenly, TJ and the others are transported to the Ancient Avalon Kingdom. TJ and Ashley are now in their imperial garments.

“Prince Takato,” a voice calls out. “It is I, the legendary Phoenix. Once again, you have proven how big your heart is by willing to sacrifice yourself to save your friends. I have a gift for you. Hold out your Zinzuishou.”

Prince Takato then holds out the crystal, and a fiery bird flies into it. As soon as it does this, it changes from a crystal shape to a star shape. At this time, Phoenix also appears before them in her black outfit.

“This is the Phoenix Star,” Phoenix explains. “With it, you will be able to transform into the Black Armor of the Phoenix. With this armor comes a new weapon as well. Thought to have been lost, I am giving you back the Sword of Destruction: the Lyger Xero, which will now also have the power of the Sword of Power within it. In addition to the Lyger, I am also giving you my legendary Phoenix Sword. This new power was brought to you by your love for Ashley, and your will to save your friends. You make me proud, Prince Takato, my son.”

Phoenix then disappears, and everyone is transported back to the mansion.

“You can do it TJ,” Yellow LightStar says. “I believe in your power.”

“Armor of the Phoenix, Transform!”

In this new transformation, TJ's star lights up, and then forges itself with his chest. Wings then come out of it and create a black exoframe. Next, he holds his hands up, and black fire engulfs them, creating gauntlets. The fire then spreads to his feet, and his boots appear. A Phoenix then comes from the background, and merges itself with TJ's body, creating the black samurai type armor on the rest of his body. Finally, his forehead lights up, and the kanji of Virtue appears. A shoulder length headband then covers it with the symbol of the phoenix on it, which is then covered by a samurai helmet. His ending pose has him with his fists in front of him in a fighting stance. A Phoenix is behind him with its wings spread.

Silent Warrior's new uniform consists of the black armor, which has the Phoenix Star on his chest. On his back, he has his two swords in their sheathes. The Lyger Xero has both it's own gems and the gems from the Sword of Power in its hilt. The Phoenix sword is a white bladed sword with a phoenix head on the hilt. On his helmet is the sign of the Phoenix.

“An abandoned mansion is no place to fight a battle. If you want to rumble, then we can settle this else where. I don't like having to include other people in my battles, but you've left me no choice. Fighter for justice, I am Silent Warrior, and in the name of the Phoenix and Avalon, I shall punish you!”

“All right, a new transformation,” Yellow LightStar says.

“Phoenix, Flare Up Now!”

In this attack, Silent Warrior pulls his swords off his back, and then makes a circle clockwise around his body. After getting into the mid-way pose, he takes the sword ends and brings them together, causing energy to flow into them. He then raises the swords above his head, and brings the two slashing down, sending forth a massive wave of energy, dissolving the enemy.

“Yes, I've gotten my transformation back!” Silent Warrior says after the Youma is destroyed.

“Yeah, you've really done it this time,” Yellow LightStar says.

* * *

Later, outside the mansion, the guys are still wondering what to do with the cats.

“I've already found owners,” TJ says. “Styve, you can take five of them; Tyrone, you and Tyrese can take two; Damon, you can take one.”

“Negro please, we already told you that we couldn't take them,” Styve says.

“I know, I'm just kidding. I've already contacted that animal shelter we found Prometheus at the one time Athena was being mean to him, and arranged for them to be picked up.”

“You doofus, trying to trick us like that! Why didn't you just let us know earlier?”

The guys then get this look on their faces, and TJ begins to run as they chase after him.

“Looks like he's back to normal,” Prometheus says.
