“Ashley is cheating on me? There's got to be some kind of mistake! You know, if someone much more mature, handsome, and talented than me appeared, Ashley would still choose me, right? Anyone trying to keep me from Ashley, in the name of Virtue, will be punished!”

Silent Warrior Inferno: SuperB

Episode 132

Sean and Kristen, friends of Ashley's from Angel Grove High School, are walking down the street together. They're on their way to visit Ashley at her mansion. This is the first time that Sean has been to her mansion. Sean likes Ashley, and Kristen likes Sean, however the two cannot admit the feelings they have for one another.

“This is your first time going to the Hunter Estate, right?” Kristen asks Sean.

Kristen is a petite young woman with shoulder length auburn hair, hazel eyes, and nicely tanned skin.

“I'm thinking it'll be relatively messy,” Sean replies.

Sean is a tall young man, about 6'2, with blonde hair, blue eyes, and a perfect smile. He could be the poster child for Captain America.

“I think it'll be nice and clean. Why would you think anything else; she probably has a butler.”

“She does, but you know how you girls can be.”

“With statements like that, I'm assuming you've been in a lot of girls' rooms…”

“Ha ha, well, it's messy when I leave them room!”

What the Future may Bring; The Love between TJ and Ashley

Sean and Kristen arrive at Ashley's mansion, and she welcomes them in.

“It's clean,” Kristen teases.

“It probably happened this morning,” Sean defends.

"There are no pictures of her boyfriend around," Kristen thinks to herself. “Funny how she has this statue of Yellow LightStar. Must be a fan or something.”

“What are you looking for?” Ashley asks, noticing her look around.

“Don't you put pictures up?” she asks.

“Pictures of what?”

“This boyfriend you've mentioned!”

“Oh, guess I haven't gotten around to it yet.”

“Is he even really coming here today?”

“He'll be here.”

The doorbell then rings, many, many times, and Ashley goes to get it.

“You're being so obvious asking so many questions about the boyfriend,” Sean moans.

“I'm doing it for you, Sean!”

“What do you mean `doing it for me?'”

“On days we see Ashley, you wear tighter jeans to accent your `attributes.' I'm a girl; I notice these things. But no matter how tight those jeans are, you know she likes the brothas. You'll never have assets that big.”

“You're really cruel, you know that?”

“I'm not trying to be, just keeping it real!”

"Yo sweetness, what's up?” TJ says, greeting Ashley while trying to keep Timmy off of her. They start to argue as usual.

“I'm not getting off of her, you should, TJ!” Timmy says.

“And why should I, squirt?” TJ asks.

“Because she's my Ashley!”

Timmy then pushes TJ and quickly drags her to the couch, where he sits in her lap.

“That's my spot on the couch!” TJ complains. “Knock it off or I won't bring you over anymore!”

“I can get here on my own!”

"Everyone, these two charming young men are TJ, and Timmy," Ashley says, introducing them to each other. "TJ, Timmy, these two are Sean, and Kristen. We all went to Angel Grove High together."

"Hello Sean, Kristen, I'm Ashley's boy…" TJ starts to introduce himself when two fingers get shoved in his mouth.

“I'm the real boyfriend!”

"No you're not, you're too young."

"Says who, you?"

"Don't start with me little boy."

"Don't you start with me!"

"Guys, please stop fighting over me," Ashley says, embarrassed.

"Would you guys like some desserts?" Sean asks, lightening the mood.

"Sure would, thanks for offering," Timmy says, quickly.

“You have very interesting boys in your life.”

“More like little brothers,” Kristen thinks.

The five begin eating the deserts, when Kristen decides to interrogate TJ.

“So, TJ, how old are you?” she asks him.

“Yes, I would like some more,” TJ responds.

“I was asking about your age…”

“Oh, I'm 17, and in my prime!”

“Oh to be 17, I remember those days! You've got dreams and love ahead of you.”

“You may be onto something there, though I'm completely fine in terms of love, with Ashley.”

The music in the background stops for a second, then Kristen and Sean laugh and it somehow starts back up.

"So, Sean, what is your relationship with Ashley?" Timmy asks with a menacing look on his face.

The light music in the background suddenly stops, again, and forks drop onto plates.

"I'm Ashley's friend from Angel Grove High," he responds as the music continues.

“I've never been able to beat him academically ever since those days,” Ashley laughs.

Timmy notices that Ashley and Sean seem to know a lot about each other, more than any "normal" friends. He gets very suspicious at this point.

* * *

Meanwhile, at the Dead Moon Circus, the Amazon Trio has singled out their next target: Sean.

“He's a good student with nothing to complain about,” David is saying. “Serious with a strong sense of justice. He seems like the type that's always been the classroom leader.”

“Yeah, I know that type,” Elliott says. “They seriously prepare for classes and reviews what they learn constantly. The kind that would listen to adults closely, and the type that teachers always favor more than others.”

“Oh, you mean the ones that tell on the students who don't help clean up after class?” Jacoby asks.

“This type is really clueless when it comes to romancing a lady.”

“So in other words, you won't waste your time on someone who doesn't know romance like you?”

“Heh, it's work.”

* * *

Later, TJ and Timmy are at a toy store, deciding on a gift to buy for Ashley.

"Timmy, should I get her the stuffed Bear, or the stuffed Zebra?" TJ asks Timmy.

He only has enough for one.

"I'm worried about leaving Sean and Ashley alone," Timmy replies. “Don't you ever get worried about her?”

"There's nothing to worry about. They're just friends. What else is there to worry about?”

“You know, things like `am I happy with the way I am now?' or `will I still be this happy down the road?'”

“This is pretty sudden, Timmy. Of course I worry about things. I mean, right now, I can't decide which one Ashley would like better: the zebra or bear? I'm worried about which one would make her happier.”

"I can't believe that you're not taking this seriously!” Timmy shouts, leaving the store in disgust. “And I don't think either one is cute!”

Sean is outside of Ashley's mansion, waiting for her to arrive so they can go to the mall. Tiger's Eye shows up, in his human form, dressed in a casual black blazer and khaki pants, pretending to be a tourist.

“There's that goody-two shoes sucker,” he laughs to himself.

“Quel heure est-il?" he asks Sean.

"Il est cinq heures moins trente," he replies.

"Oh great," Elliott says in English with a French accent. "I told the tour guide I would meet him here at 5. Without my guide, I can't even make it to a place to eat! Wait, what's your name? You are very young and handsome. Please, have dinner with me in his place!"

“Sorry, but I'm waiting for someone right now,” Sean replies.

Just then Ashley arrives.

"Come on, let's go," Ashley says.

Sean runs to the car right behind her, leaving Elliott. David and Jacoby show up, laughing at what had just happened.

“It's completely different if he has a girlfriend,” Elliott says. “I could've sworn he was gay by those tight jeans.”

"That was so freaking tight how he just ditched you like that," Jacoby says to Elliott.

“In either case, that was more like a suspicious guy, than someone trying to pick someone up,” David rolls on the floor.

"Shut up," Elliott shoots back. "I'll get his mirror by force next time."

Meanwhile, Timmy is having a dream. In it, Sean and Ashley are together. TJ is there too.

"TJ, I don't want you anymore," Ashley says. "I've had dark meat, and now I want a taste of the other white meat…Sean!"

"Ashley, you can't mean this," TJ says.

"You don't seem to understand what no means, do you?" Sean says to TJ.

"I love him so much more than I do you,” Ashley taunts.

"No Ashley, you can't! It's not true. Why settle for him when you can have me, the warrior and keeper of peace?

"Face it dweeb, it's over," Sean says.

"No, this can't be happening. If you and TJ don't get married, then I won't be born,” Timmy says.

Ashley and the others can't hear him.

"No, I should have told them sooner. Now it's too late. They'll never know that Ashley is my mother!”

Timmy wakes from his dream in a cold sweat.

“Could this be the biggest crisis that Prince Takato has faced? I know what I have to do,” he says. “I have to tell them the truth.”

Timmy runs out into the street, only to find Ashley walking with Sean.

"No way," he says. "I've got to get a better look."

He starts following them, hiding in bushes, when Kristen appears.

"What are you doing here?" they both ask each other.

Ashley and Sean are walking together through a park.

“I'm sorry, if you were busy today,” Sean is saying to Ashley.

“No, I had nothing in particular to do,” Ashley responds. "Have you fallen in love?"

"Why would you ask something like that?" he asks, blushing.

"Well, I know you, and you don't like to go shopping unless it's for a girl."

"Umm, well..."

Kristen and Timmy are behind them, unnoticed.

"You see, Timmy, back at Angel Grove High, Sean and Ashley were known as 'the best couple'," Kristen explains to Timmy. "I think they are too, but I'm secretly in love with Sean. If Ashley had an official boyfriend, then I might have a chance."

"Don't worry," Timmy says, comforting her. "I'm on your side."

TJ is still in the toy store, deciding on which toy to get, when Timmy arrives.

"TJ, listen, I know we don't get along that much, but right now, we have to go interrupt Sean and Ashley."

"Why?" TJ asks, confused.

"Well, if you and Ashley don't stay together... I won't be born!"

"What you talking about Timmy?"

"In the future, you two get married, and I'm the outcome. You also have a daughter, Zakia. I should have told you this back when you rescued me from the Dark Legion, but I didn't because I know it's dangerous for a person to know too much about their future. Listen, there's no time to explain right now, but I promise I will later, ok? We have to stop Sean from getting with Ashley! With you and your conceited thoughts, and him being way sexier, handsome, cooler, and more suave, he has a great chance! Even the thought of him being my father has crossed my mind!"

"So Ashley is the mother…that makes a lot of sense though. You do remind me of her at times. I'll ask you questions later though. Right now I have a bigger problem: what should I get?"

"Oh come on TJ, you'll have time for that later!"

“I would never doubt Ashley's love for me like that, that's why we know we're made for each other.”

Completely shocked and annoyed, Timmy drags TJ out of the store by his shirt.

* * *

At the park, Ashley and Sean are sitting on the stairs to a fountain.

"Do I know the person you bought the necklace for?" Ashley asks Sean.

Sean starts to answer when Elliott shows up.

"Excuse me sir, do you have the time?"

Before he can answer, Elliott changes into his amazon outfit and goes after his Soul Mirror.

"Hey, what's going on? Get off him," Ashley yells.

"Back off girlie," Tiger's Eye replies, whipping her back with his whip. “Now, let's see if StarFire is in this soul!”

As he's going through the mirror, Timmy and TJ show up.

“Why did you drag me all the way here?” TJ complains.

"Uh oh, looks like trouble's back again," Timmy says. "Time to transform. Wildfire."

"Inferno."

"Armor Up!"

"There's no StarFire in this Soul Mirror," Tiger's Eye says. "I guess it's time to destroy you."

The two daggers fly by.

"Not again," Tiger's Eye moans.

"I can't forgive you for putting innocent people through strange pain! If you didn't know, we are the defenders of those looking for love."

"To right all wrongs, and triumph over your evils."

"Silent Warrior Inferno."

"Xero Warrior Wildfire."

"In the name of the planet Virtue, we will punish you."

“Silent Warrior…” Sean says weakly, still strapped to the table.

"Balloon girl, Puko-chan," Tiger's Eye cries bringing forth the Remless.

Puko traps Xero Warrior to the ground with its tremendous size, suffocating him. Silent tries to intervene by throwing a dagger, but Tiger's Eye whips it away. He then leaves through a portal.

“Hey, leave him alone,” Sean yells.

“Oh, so you want some too?” Puko asks.

It starts to head towards him when it sees that Ashley looks much nicer.

“What a cute girl!”

"Ashley, watch it!" Silent Warrior yells, running in between Puko and Ashley.

"Silent Warrior, get out of here!" Ashley pleads.

"Oh, how sweet; you're willing to sacrifice yourself in order to protect her," Puko says. “It's so beautiful! Don't worry miss, once I kill him, I'll kill you too!”

"Why are you doing this for me Silent Warrior?" Ashley asks.

"It's because I love you, and Timmy's future depends on it," Silent Warrior replies.

"What do you mean, 'Timmy's future'?"

"We are his parents. We both knew that I was his father, but we didn't know that you're his mother. He told me that in the future, we get married, and have a boy and a girl. He's the boy. I love you so much Ashley, and I can't bear to let you go, especially not now that I know that we are going to have a beautiful baby boy."

"Oh Silent Warrior, I love you too. With all my heart, and I am glad to hear that we get married and have Timmy. It makes me proud to be your girlfriend, and future wife."

"How touching, too bad I'm going to now finish you both off!” Puko says, pressing harder against Silent Warrior's face.

"Silent Warrior…Inferno…no, this can't happen!" Ashley cries. "TJ, I love you," she calls out.

"TJ's not around, what is she talking about?" Sean thinks to himself. "Wait a minute, TJ is Silent Warrior!"

"You witch, I'm not going to let you take Silent Warrior away from her," a female voice calls out.

Puko looks around, but doesn't see anyone. A black and yellow dagger then strikes Puko, causing her to go flying as air escapes her body.

“Who's dagger is that?” Silent Warrior asks as he, Ashley, and Xero Warrior look in the direction it came from.

Standing ahead of them is a young lady about the age of 17. She has white hair, brown skin with white holy symbol tattoos, blue eyes, and is about 5'10. She is in a fighting uniform which is a short sleeved leather jacket, with a short white shirt underneath, black leather pants, and black boots. On her forehead, she is wearing a tiara which has the symbol of Virtue on it, and she has magnificently white angel wings on her back. She is holding a golden staff with angel wings at the top, and has a sword on her back.

“It's my sister…Angel Warrior!” Xero Warrior squeals.

“There will be time for introductions later,” Angel Warrior says to the group.

"Are you ok?" Ashley asks Silent Warrior.

"Yes, I am now," replies Silent Warrior.

"Too bad that balloon isn't," Little Warrior says. "StarFire please come, come and take care of the Remless. Call of the Flame!"

"Rage of Inferno."

Later, at Sean and Kristen's college, Sunnydale University, they are sitting on the roof.

"How did it go with Ashley?” Kristen asks.

"I didn't tell her how I felt about her," he answers.

"Why not?"

"Here, take this, it's yours." Sean gives her the necklace. “It'd be too much of a waste to just throw away or return.”

“So what made you change your mind, seriously?”

"I can't beat the brotha that's protecting the peace on earth," Sean thinks to himself.
