Silent Warrior: Resurrection
Episode 52
Tyrone is peacefully sleeping with Athena in his bed (under the covers!), when children outside wake him up.
“Why do they have to be so noisy?” he asks himself, looking at the clock. “Oh no, I'm going to be late for school! Why is it always like this? Athena, stop turning off my alarm clock!”
Tyrone then jumps out of bed, tossing Athena on the floor, and begins looking for his school uniform.
“My name is Athena. I'm a miniaturized white tiger that understands the human language. I also speak it very well.”
“Athena, stop peeking you pervert!” Tyrone yells, throwing a shirt over her eyes as he jumps out of the shower.
Athena and Tyrone are now running down the street to try and make it to the school.
“This is my long time partner, Tyson Tyrone Beckford-Davis, also known as Terrific T: Dark Warrior, though he has dropped the `terrific' part since joining with the other Brother Soldiers. He looks so dependable and grown up, but looks can be deceiving.”
On the way to school, Tyrone decides to take a shortcut by jumping/flying over fences and alleys.
“I know he has more hidden powers, but I wish he would just be more dependable.”
The Power of Youth; Tyrone's Hidden Power
Tyrone and Athena land not too far from the school, when they see some little kids picking on another little boy. The kids are arguing over something the little boy has.
“Hey, why don't you guys leave this guy alone?” Tyrone yells, chasing after them.
The boys run off and the other little boy stops crying.
“Can you take me to the bus stop?” the kid asks.
“I'm already late,” Tyrone explains. “Can't you go by yourself?”
“If you don't take me, I'll start crying again.”
“Oh all right, geeze.”
The kid gets on the bus, and he thanks Tyrone, calling him big brother.
“I can't believe kids these days,” he says to Athena as the bus pulls off.
“Well, you're not making it to school on time now,” she replies.
They continue running, when they spot TJ ahead of them.
“Late again?” he asks his friend.
“You know it,” TJ responds.
“Well you know what they say: `in spring, one sleeps a sleep that knows no damn!'”
“It's a sleep that knows no dawn',” Athena corrects him.
“They probably say that too.”
“Well, I go this way, so I'll see you sometime after school,” TJ says, splitting off.
TJ splits up to go to his own school, and Tyrone makes it to his just as the gates close and the bell rings.
“You won't believe it, but he's a lot better than he used to be!”
* * *
TJ is standing outside his homeroom with a sign on his neck that says he's always late so he has to stand in the hall.
“It's not fair; I have to stand out here during free period,” he complains. “I wonder if Ty made it in time?”
As he's standing out there, Carissa spots him.
“Why TJ, how nice it is to see you,” she starts. “Your sorrowful eyes are bewitching. Now, come into my arms and let us talk of love! When I look at you, I just want to say those three simple words…”
As she's talking to him, she's moving her arms frantically, yet romantically.
Chris sees this and walks up to her.
“What are you doing?” he asks, annoyed.
“Um, nothing,” she answers, “just my exercises. One and two and three and four and come on guys lets do some more…”
“What strange siblings,” TJ says as Chris walks off..
The two meet up on the roof and Chris starts to complain.
“Why are you always around that TJ guy?” he asks.
“Relax Chris; it's all part of my plan to get his energy,” she covers up.
“Well, I guess we could use his youthful energy, but I've come up with a plan to get younger and fresher energy.”
“Fresher energy? Sounds delicious…”

On the way home, Tyrone spots the little boy from earlier arguing with some other kids.
“It's the boy from before,” he says to Athena. “Hey, you guys be nice to each other!”
Tyrone then walks up to the group of children.
“Silent Warrior is real,” the boy argues.
“He is not,” another one chimes in. “Everyone knows he's just a movie person.”
“Why are you guys arguing?” Tyrone asks.
“Oh look, it's that old man from this morning,” one boy says. “Don't stick your nose in kids' business, old man.”
“Who are you calling old?”
“Shouldn't you be out with your girlfriend? Oh wait you must not have one if you're here bothering little kids. Guess with those looks, it would be hard to get a girl!”
Tyrone gets mad and explodes, causing all the kids to leave except the one boy.
“What's wrong with the younger generation these days?” Tyrone wonders as they run.
“And he wonders why they think he's an old man with expressions like that!” Athena snickers.
“So, what's your name, and what were you guys fighting about?” he asks the boy.
“My name is Marc, and we were fighting about Silent Warrior,” the boy replies.
Tyrone then notices the Silent Warrior sticker on his jacket.
“Oh, so you like him huh? Well what about Dark Warrior?”
“Who's that?”
“Ouch, that's way harsh!”
“What's it say about me?” Athena ponders at the comment.
“Do you really think there's a Silent Warrior out there?” Marc asks.
“Well, that's a tough one,” Tyrone answers.
“Maybe he doesn't really exist at all…”
“The important thing is that you believe in him.”
“Do you know about him?”
“Yes, I know about him. In fact, I've met him a couple of times.”
“What are you doing?” Athena cries telepathically to Tyrone.
“Will you come to the school tomorrow and tell those kids that?” Marc asks.
“Sure thing, no problem,” Tyrone replies.
Athena falls off the bench they're sitting on.
“I'll teach those kids to have real childlike innocence!” he continues with stars in his eyes.
“Right,” Marc agrees with stars in his eyes too. “If we don't believe in things now, we'll regret it when we're grownups.”
Tyrone then snaps out of it and looks at him, wondering what kids are thinking these days.

Back at the Makaiju Complex, Mondo and Rockna are noticing the low level of energy in the Phantom Forest.
“We need to pick a new target,” Rockna says.
“How about kindergartners?” Mondo asks. “Kids have tons of energy and have no idea what to do with it. Children have that fresh young feeling.”
“That's fine then Mondo, now pick a Cardian.”
Mondo then picks one, and Rockna plays her flute, awakening the Cardian Icarus, a man/bird type monster. Icarus then leaves the forest, only to reappear above a school bus as it enters a tunnel. As soon as it's in there, Icarus attacks it. Back at the Phantom Forest, everything lights up.
“Wow, those kids had more energy than I thought,” Mondo exclaims.

“Look at this,” Styve says, pulling out a newspaper at his place with Damon, Tyrese, and Prometheus the next afternoon. “It says kindergarten busses have been getting attacked, and the victims left with low levels of energy.”
“This is definitely the work of a Cardian,” Tyrese states. “According to the calculations I've made on my palm pilot, they'll be after Christa McAuliffe elementary next.”
Laughter is then heard and everyone turns to Styve's bed where TJ is sitting, reading Marvel Stars.
“Thanks for reading my books TJ,” Styve yells. “I haven't even read those ones yet! Good luck tracking down this enemy because it's all up to you.”
“What are you guys talking about?” TJ asks, puzzled.
At McAuliffe, Tyrone is there talking to the kids about Silent Warrior.
“Silent and Dark Warrior are really out there,” he's saying.
“If that's so, why don't you bring them to us?” a boy asks.
“The important thing is that we believe they exist,” Marc says.
“Keep on believing, and you'll see them some day,” Tyrone continues.
“I think you should be more realistic,” one boy says.
“Yeah, are you going through a hard time or something?” another asks.
“Why?” Tyrone asks.
“Don't they call that escapism?”
“This little…”
“It must be nice to be a grownup,” the first boy says. “They always push their ideas and hardships onto children, while they run off to live in a fantasy world.”
“I'll bring something to you alright,” Tyrone thinks. “It's sad that I can't just say what I want like TJ can.”
“He should've left this whole matter alone,” Athena sighs.
“OK kids, let's thank Mr. Davis for his discussion,” the teacher says, coming outside. “The bus is here but I won't be able to ride it with you.”
“It's ok, I'll ride with them,” Tyrone offers.
“I guess we'll let you on since the teacher can't ride today,” the one boy comments.
Outside the gate, TJ and Prometheus are coming up to the school.
“Ok, you've got to get on that bus,” Prometheus says.
“But why do I have to fight alone?” TJ whines.
“Because you're the only one with a disguise power, so you have to go.”
“Fine, I'll go, but if a monster attacks me and ruins my day I'm going to be pissed off! Wings of the Phoenix hide me with an illusion and make me a really cool substitute teacher!”
“You changed the phrase,” Prometheus comments.
“Got to keep up with the times, Promeeth,” TJ responds.
TJ then runs up to the bus as it gets ready to leave.
“Hold it, stop: I'm the substitute; let me on,” he yells.
“TJ is that you?” Tyrone asks telepathically.
“Ty, what are you doing here?” TJ responds.
“Cardian, another bus is leaving, go and take its energy,” Carissa commands from behind the shadows.
“I'm sure glad to see you,” TJ says to Tyrone after the bus has left the school.
“What are you doing here?” he asks, noticing his get-up, while the kids are singing the Silent Warrior: Ressurection opening song.
“Styve says a Cardian is after this bus, so they sent me to investigate.”
As the trip continues, the guys sing songs with the kids on the bus and everything is going smoothly. Eventually the bus comes to the tunnel, and the Cardian appears in front of it. The driver slams on the brakes, and the bus comes to a quick halt.
“I'm scared,” Marc says, running to Tyrone.
“Don't worry, your favorite is coming,” Tyrone comforts.
“Silent Warrior?”
“You know it,” TJ says. “Ok you monster, let's go.”
He and Athena charge at it, but it knocks them out the window.
“Why do I always have to be the hero?” TJ moans. “This is never an easy job.”
“Will you just transform?” Prometheus asks, showing up.
“Where'd you come from? Never mind I'll do it: Avalon Dark Crystal Power!”
Athena jumps at the Cardian, but it knocks her away. He then starts to walk towards the kids when the dagger is thrown.
“Picking on kindergarten kids, how low will you go? Kids are our future, and I will not let you harm them. Stealing energy from the children who bare the future; you cannot get away with making us worry about our old age! In case you didn't know, I'm the Silent Warrior, and in the name of Avalon, I will punish you!”
“Hey everybody, it's Silent Warrior!” Marc shouts.
“Wow, what an introduction!” one boy exclaims.
“Thanks for waiting for me,” Silent Warrior says to them.
The Cardian is not impressed and jumps off the bus. Silent Warrior back flips and the monster charges at him, throwing deadly wind attacks at him.
“Is Silent Warrior going to be ok?” one boy asks. “Doesn't look like he's all that tough…”
“Looks like TJ could use some help,” Tyrone says to himself, sneaking out a window while the kids are on the opposite side of the bus.
Silent Warrior keeps dodging, and the kids start to think he can't fight.
“Dark Power!”
Icarus then begins to run towards Silent Warrior, who's backed up against the bus, and extends his hands into long sharp blades.
“Dark Crescent Beam! Stop right there, I'm Dark Warrior and I'm here to deliver divine punishment, in the name of Avalon!”
“Oh great, another one,” the Cardian sighs.
“Look everyone, it's Dark Warrior,” Marc yells.
“Wow he's so cool!” someone cries. “He looks just like Silent Warrior!”
“Ring of hope, with its soul burning bright; relinquish this sword, its power, its might!”
Silent Warrior draws his sword out, and Dark Warrior jumps down from atop the bus to join him. Icarus beckons for the two to bring on the pain, so they charge at him.
“The crescent beam didn't work; that's impossible!” Dark Warrior exclaims.
Icarus shoots his wind energy at Dark Warrior, but he counters with his beam. This time the beam doesn't work again, and he gets blasted as well. Inside the bus, the children are cheering for the two to get up.
“What must I do to defeat this evil?” Dark Warrior wonders.
Icarus begins running towards him again, when the trading card stops him.
“You must believe in yourself,” White Manta says, appearing from the other side of the bus. “In order to overcome something, you must believe you can do it first. Once you pass through the tunnel of despair, you will see the garden of hope. These children believe in you, so now it's time for you to see what they see.”
The Cardian starts to run at Dark Warrior, and he closes his eyes.
“White Manta is right; I must believe in myself to defeat this monster,” he thinks to himself. “I can do this…I will do this.” “Dark Power, flow throughout this body.”
Dark Warrior begins to glow as the monster continues running at him.
“No more playing games Cardian, your time has come. Dark Special Beam Cannon!”
Dark Warrior's energy flows to his hands, where he cups them together, then pulls them back to gather the energy into a ball. His angelic wings appear, and energy begins to form in them as well. With a strong thrust, he hurls his energy attack at the enemy, sending it in a spiral wave of power.
“Cool new trick huh?” he asks as the monster screams from the pain.
“Yep, nice wings by the way. Now it's time for me to finish him off. Lyger: Sword of Destruction!”
The two defeat the enemy, with it yelling out “cleansing,” and the children are safe.
“Way to go Dark Warrior, I knew you had it in you,” White Manta compliments on her way out.
“Special Beam Cannon…” Dark Warrior mumbles.
“You discovered a hidden power of yours,” Athena says, coming up to him in her god form. “I'm proud of you. And, unleashing that power has allowed me to be able to change forms as I please. I think we owe it all to them.”
“I think you're right, Athena. Those kids helped me out today.”

The next day, Tyrone sees Marc on his way to school again, and sees that he has a patch of Dark Warrior on his jacket.
“Silent Warrior is cool, but Dark Warrior is the best.”
