Silent Warrior: The Phoenix' Flames

Episode 116

TJ, Ashley, Prometheus, in human clothes, and Timmy are in a toy store. Ashley spots a lion backpack, and tells Timmy she'll get it for him.

“What does he need it for?” TJ asks. “”I don't see you buying anything for anyone else.”

“Relax TJ,” Ashley starts, “he'll need this for his upcoming fieldtrip in school.”

“She's right you know,” Prometheus adds. “He'll be starting that summer session soon, and he'll need something to carry books in.”

TJ gets mad at him for butting in, and pushes him into a shelf.

“You shouldn't take things out on Prometheus,” Timmy says.

“He's right TJ,” Ashley agrees.

“I've got an idea,” he says suddenly. “Ashley, how about me and you go on a little picnic together, just the two of us?”

“That's not fair, I want to go too,” Timmy complains.

“Bug off squirt, this is between me and her, not the third wheel!”

The two start to argue, when Timmy spots Eugene walking past the store. He is thinking about the great athlete Eugene used to be, and is wondering why he became sick all of a sudden.

“Gene,” Timmy yells, running out of the store.

Eugene hears his voice, and begins to run away.

“Wait, aren't we still friends?” Timmy asks, puzzled.

He keeps on running, and TJ wonders why he left.

“So that's the former all-star athlete?” Ashley asks, coming out. “I'm sure he has a reason for all of this.”

“Coby said I should keep him away from Timmy…”

A Friendship Devoted to a King

“I need more power,” the Messiah of Maelstrom gripes. “You must get more pure hearts for me to feed off of.”

“Of course,” Professor King responds. “The pure energy from the pure hearts of humans!”

Upstairs, the doorbell rings, and Katherine answers it.

“Yes, what do you want?” she asks.

“Could you give this backpack to Eugene?” Timmy asks. “Thanks a lot.”

Timmy then leaves, and Eugene appears behind Katherine.

“Give me that,” he says, snatching it from her.

“Well, aren't we mister grabby-pants,” she says.

“There's a letter in it. It says that Timmy and his family are going on a picnic, and he wants me to come.”

“How selfish of that little boy. He knows the condition you're in, yet he insists on asking you out.”

Just as he is about to protest, his father comes into the room.

“It sounds like a picnic with your new friend could be fun,” he says. “You make sure to go. Since I'm so busy with this research and with being principal, it'll be nice for you to hang around a new friend.”

The next day, TJ is carrying a huge basket of food to Ashley's car.

“Do you think you have enough stuff?” she asks him.

“I always pack prepared,” TJ responds.

Timmy is looking down the street, wondering if Eugene will arrive.

“Maybe he couldn't make it today,” Ashley says.

Just as they are about to leave, Prometheus, dressed in a football jersey, jeans, tan tims, and a baseball hat backwards, spots Eugene running towards the car, with the backpack. They meet up, then get in the car and head to the park. They end up at the Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens. Timmy is running around, having a good time playing football with Eugene, and Ashley is taking pictures. The guys then take out a baseball, and everyone starts to play. Timmy comments on how Eugene is really good at all the activities they're doing.

“Hmm, I told him to keep the prince away from him,” Jacoby says. “I feel an unearthly evil aura coming from that boy.”

He, Elliott, and David are watching from a nearby building.

“I hope he knows what he's doing.” Elliott comments. “It looks like a lot of fun.”

Eugene then falls down, and Ashley runs up to him.

“Is everything ok?” she asks him.

“Yeah, I'll be ok,” he answers.

TJ and Timmy are playing leapfrog when they hear Ashley ask him.

“Gene, are you ok?” Timmy then asks.

“Is he hurt?” TJ asks, getting up as Timmy tries to jump over him. They end up colliding into one another.

“Come on, let's go inside the green house,” Ashley suggests. “I know the guy that works here.”

“I'll get you as soon as I get TJ!” Timmy yells, chasing TJ.

“It was an accident, I swear!” TJ cries, running from the boy.

At Rapturers 5, Marcella is sitting at her computer. She then gets a call from Professor King.

“What color is your favorite rose?” he asks.

“I'll take a million pink ones, if they're free,” she answers. “But a rose is worth nothing unless it's red.”

“I have a target for you, Marcella. He's a botanist, who has a pure heart for creating the perfect hybrids.”

“Yes, I see him on my computer. Trevor Alexander.”

Professor King then puts a yellow rose into the Youma machine, creating Ubara. Marcella then picks up the briefcase, and walks off with it.

* * *

Everyone is inside looking at the flowers and plants. Ashley then sees her friend, Trevor.

“With another handsome guy I see,” Trevor greets Ashley.

“Another guy?” TJ asks.

Ashley shrugs it off and then a bunch of kids show up surrounding Trevor, calling him daddy. There are six kids in all.

“Wow, that's a lot more than last time,” Ashley comments. “More like a tribe”

Outside, Marcella is walking around, when she spots Trevor and the kids.

“Damn, could he have anymore children?” she exclaims. “I hate rugrats.”

“Ok, you guys go and help mama at home,” Trevor tells the kids.

The kids deliver his lunch and then take off.

“So how goes the research?” Ashley asks Trevor as they eat outside.

“I think I'm finally coming along on a new type of rose,” he responds.

“How come you're not eating your pasta salad?” Ashley asks Timmy.

“TJ hasn't touched his either,” he tattles.

“TJ, you have to eat yours too!”

“But I don't like it!” TJ complains.

“You won't know until you try it!”

Reluctantly he does, and then he tells Timmy to eat his too.

“She's like the mother and you're the kid and husband,” Eugene laughs.

“How are you enjoying the food?” Timmy asks, turning red.

“I like it. It's been a long time since my family's been on a picnic,” he says, getting serious.

“Sometimes families get busy, and don't have time for picnics,” Trevor says. “It's more fun to spend time playing with your friends, than to complain about it!”

He slaps Eugene on the back, knocking him into Timmy, who falls into TJ, who falls into Prometheus' lap.

“Please get out of that area!” Prometheus cries.

Marcella is watching everything from behind a tree, and she sets her sights on TJ instead of Trevor. Just as she is about to open the suitcase, she remembers Professor King's words about Trevor. Everyone then goes into the rose room, and Trevor explains their history.

“Most of the roses that you see around the floating city come from here,” he explains. “Using the latest technology, we can create hybrids of any color.”

“Imagine, trying to get flowers to mate all day,” TJ says laughing.

“You shouldn't use science to make flowers,” Eugene suddenly says. “People should just leave them to grow naturally.”

Timmy looks at him in wonder. Meanwhile, they all decide to go into the tropical room. Eugene opts to stay in the rose room. Marcella then comes up to TJ.

“Excuse me sir, but what's this plant's Latin name?” she asks.

“Back off babe, the plant specialist is over there,” Ashley says.

“Well my bad, he's just so fine that I thought he was him. You think we can talk alone?”

“Sorry, but he's here on a family outing.”

“Oh, who are they, your cousins?”

“No, they're my future husband and son.”

TJ then walks off with Ashley and Timmy.

“Well screw you and your ill mannered family!” Marcella shouts after them.

She gets mad and is about to let out the Youma, when she thinks about what Professor King said. Elsewhere, TJ is ecstatic that Ashley referred to him as her future husband.

“Like this is news to you,” Prometheus sighs.

“I'm getting worried about Eugene,” Timmy says.

“It's ok to look for him then,” Ashley says.

Just then a storm starts with hail and lightning. A glass breaks in the greenhouse and the lights go out.

“We should help keep the rain out,” Ashley suggests to TJ.

Timmy is off looking for Eugene, when a bolt of lighting crashes.

“I hate thunder!” he proclaims.

In a smaller building, Trevor is trying to fix the hole with a piece of wood, but it's not staying.

“I'll help you,” Eugene says, holding the ladder still for him.

“I need to protect those buds below,” Trevor says. “They've got healing properties. See, there's more to roses, than just making pretty bouquets.”

Marcella then comes in and throws a shovel at the ladder, causing the two to fall.

“A job is a job after all, and the only way to the executive chair is to get that crystal! It's time to step up, Ubara!”

Marcella then releases the Youma. A huge yellow rose-like heart snatcher then appears.

“Wow, look at those dull petals,” Trevor comments. “Is this the result over fertilizing?”

Ubara gets mad at his comment and goes over to him and sucks out his Pure Heart Crystal. Timmy sees all of this and goes behind a door to transform.

“Phoenix Transform!”

The Lion-O dagger then strikes before Marcella and Ubara.

“How dare you attack an innocent man trying to make his living through botanicals. I cannot allow for such deeds to go unpunished. In case you didn't know, I'm Little Warrior! And in the name of the future, I will punish you.”

Ubara grows yellow roses from her fingers and throws them at Little Warrior. Just as one is about to hit him, a yellow star flower and card appear.

“Who dare uses the yellow flower, my symbol for good, as an evil insight? I'm Yellow LightStar, and I won't allow such cheap imitations.”

“And neither will I!” a voice says as a black dagger strikes the ground. “You dare attack this greenhouse, a place for flowers of all sorts to grow. You then attack a man trying to protect his pure hearts, shame on you.”

Spotlights then appear on Silent Warrior.

“I stand for those who cannot stand for themselves, I am Silent Warrior! And now, in the name of the Phoenix, I will punish you!”

Ubara then starts to throw thorns at them.

“Red poison, blood attack!”

His attack actually works, but Ubara still grabs him and Silent Warrior.

“What are you doing, losing to a little boy like that?!” Marcella sighs.

“Star Slinger!”

Yellow LightStar's attack frees the two and tears off Ubara's arms. Ubara then grows vines and sticks them in the ground. They then come up and grab the three fighters.

“We've got to do something Silent Warrior,” Little Warrior says. “Her evil honors no bounds!”

Eugene then blindly grabs one of the roots of Ubara and suddenly his eyes turn to fire. Fire then surrounds him and he sucks the life force out of her.

“Now Silent Warrior!” Yellow LightStar proclaims.

“Sacred Phoenix Power! Phoenix Swords Clash!”

Marcella gets mad that she was defeated again and leaves. The storm has now stopped and everything is back to normal.

“What was that tremendous power?” Dark Tiger's Eye asks Dark Shark's Eye and Dark Hawk's Eye in the back of the room.

“It's an eerie pulse of darkness,” Dark Hawk's Eye answers.

“Please be careful, Little One…” Dark Shark's Eye says quietly.

* * *

“That was some storm,” Trevor says as his kids come in the room. “But the pure hearts are ok.”

Everyone then looks up and sees a rainbow.

“It's for you, Gene,” Timmy says to him.
