“So what if I'm lazy, loud, and obnoxious? You get used to being called all sorts of names when you're friends with Styve! But picking on Tyrese and starting a rumor about him isn't cool. As Silent Warrior, I will stop you!”

Silent Warrior: Revolution

Episode 80

Emerald is in a bathtub at her little hideout, giving herself compliments on her looks.

“The only good thing about this place is the beauty products,” she says to her self. “Princess Diamond loves the scent of jasmine flowers. I'll make sure to bathe with these jasmine petals, to naturally give off its scent. It's a shame to be this beautiful.”

“It's a shame that you haven't managed to capture a negative point or the Little One,” Sapphire Weapon says, teleporting in.

“Oh Sapphire, don't you know better than to walk in when a girl's bathing?”

“This bubble bath of yours is nothing but a waste of space. You should be out there taking care of the Star Points of the future Star City.”

“Oh please brother, relax already. I've found a negative point; I just wanted to relax first.”

Emerald gets out of the tub, bearing it all, and puts a robe on. She then leaves only to reappear over the floating city, still in her robe and a towel.

“Droido Miss Trust,” she says, calling her monster. “I want you to go to the Einstein School for the Gifted, and bring out the negative energy within the place.”

Overcome the Darkness in your Mind

The next morning, the results of the PSAT's are posted in the main hall of NorthWest Academy, going in order of student id number.

“Oh wow, look Reese,” TJ says. “You got the highest score in the school.”

“You really are a genius, son,” Melvin congratulates.

“Nah, they just happened to have on the test what I happened to study,” Tyrese blushes.

“It must be nice to always come in at the top of the class,” a boy says.

“Don't you find it strange how Tyrese is always getting the highest scores, and TJ the lowest?” a girl behind them asks.

“Yeah, it's because something isn't right,” another answers.

“Ignore them man, they've just been sipping on that haterade,” TJ comments.

“It's ok T, I'm used to it by now,” Tyrese answers.

“I guess like how I'm used to barely passing.”

“Hey everyone, look what I found!” Marcy says, coming up to the group with a sheet of paper in her hand. “It's the cheat sheet Tyrese used on the test.”

“Makes sense how someone who hangs around TJ can get such good grades,” the same girl from before states.

“Yeah, just look at the scores TJ gets!”

TJ and Melvin start yelling at the group, but they don't understand why they're sticking up for Tyrese.

“Reese is really smart,” TJ is saying.

“Yeah, you guys are seriously tripping,” Melvin adds. “Marcy, you're not acting like your usual self today.”

“So you're going to side with a lying cheater?” she asks.

“What's all this commotion about?” Damon asks, walking up the hall.

“You better stay out of this and mind your business,” one guy says to him. “You don't want to be known for hanging out with a cheater.”

Not liking his attitude, or his choice of words, Damon takes the guy's arm and throws him over his shoulder. Some other guys come up to him and he tosses them aside.

“Please, stop fighting!” Tyrese pleads.

“But they started it,” TJ pouts.

“You're just going to let them get away with calling you a cheater?” Damon asks.

“There's no need to get violent about anything. I know I'm innocent, so they can say what they want,” Tyrese explains. “I'm just mad that since everyone thinks I cheated, how come I didn't get a perfect score?”

Later, the three of them are walking home, and Damon is still baffled about everything.

“I don't understand why they're calling you a cheater,” he says to Tyrese. “I mean they all go to the same cram school you do, and they got high scores as well.”

Timmy catches up with them and asks Tyrese if it's true.

“Of course I didn't cheat,” he responds calmly.

“Who told you that lie anyways?” TJ asks.

“This guy with glasses and bad breath,” Timmy responds.

Damon and TJ know exactly who it is and are ready to go pound on him, when Tyrese tells them not to.

“Don't worry about me guys, I'll be fine,” he says. “At least my real friends believe me.”

He runs off, headed towards his house, and tries to forget about everything. On his way home, he hears people talking about him and whispering bad things. Finally fed up, he ducks into an ally and kicks over some trash cans.

“Why is everyone being this way towards me?” he wonders. “It's not my fault I study hard so I can make good grades.”

“Don't worry Rese, we believe you're innocent,” he remembers TJ saying.

“They all go to the same cram school that you do,” Damon's voice echoes in his head.

“That's it, my extra school; something must be going on there.”

By the time he reaches the school, the sun has begun to drop and dusk is setting in. He walks in and looks around the place, which is surprisingly empty.

“I feel a strange force here,” he says. “It must be the enemy. Dark Ice-Dagger Power!”

As he is transforming, Miss Trust appears outside of the window, and decides to have some fun with him.

“If anyone is here, please come out right now. I am Dark Sabre, and I'm here on behalf of the Brother Soldiers.”

No one answers, and he gets worried. He decides to contact the others, and Miss Trust decides to make copies of herself to attack him.

“Dark Mist Suffocate!”

Dark Sabre collects water in his hands which are cupped together, and then releases a mist that instantly freezes. His old power-up attack takes care of the clones, so Miss Trust makes some more.

“Double Dark Mist Suffocate!”

He kills another wave and Miss Trust is impressed.

“These must be copies, meaning the real one is hiding somewhere,” Dark Sabre figures to himself.

“Seems like I've underestimated my opponent,” she says to herself. “Here come some more of these Brothers. I'll use Dark Sabre to take out the others!”

Dark Blade, Dark Knight, and Dark Warrior with Athena in demi god form, run into the building to meet Dark Sabre in the classroom.

“Be careful guys, the enemy is around here somewhere making copies of herself,” Dark Sabre informs them.

“What the hell is going on here?” Dark Knight asks.

“One of Emerald Weapon's Droidos took over this place with dark power, and it's affected the students that go here.”

“I don't see anyone…” Dark Blade says.

“Just trust me on this one.”

Miss Trust raises her antennae and points them at Dark Sabre. A weird beam goes to him, and everything begins to be altered for him.

“Did you guys feel that?” he asks, turning around to his friends.

The Brothers each have menacing looks on their faces, thanks to Miss Trust's power of illusion.

“What's wrong guys?” he asks.

“Look at Dark Sabre,” Dark Warrior says.

“He is such a has-been,” Dark Knight comments.

“And that bald look, it's really not working for his milk dud head,” Dark Blade adds.

“Always flaunting around those perfect grades of his; what a loser!”

Dark Sabre is taken aback by their words.

“You guys stop playing around,” he says, shrugging it off. “I never brag about my grades, but if you feel I have, I'm sorry.”

“We'll stop when you stop cheating!” Dark Warrior retorts.

“There's no way they would talk to me like this. Something has to be wrong.”

“Hate those who bad mouth you, and kill them!” Miss Trust says outside the window.

Dark Blade notices Dark Sabre looking at them weird, and steps up to him, asking what's wrong. Dark Sabre jumps back from them and tells them to stay away. Outside, TJ and Timmy have shown up with Prometheus, and notice the Droido floating outside a window.

“Avalon, Dark Crystal Power!”

“Prometheus Shinka!”

TJ and Prometheus transform, and then Silent Warrior throws the dagger, distracting Miss Trust.

“For spreading your dark power to students and causing them to accuse someone of cheating, as Silent Warrior I will punish you!”

“Let's see you punish this,” she says, pointing her beams at Silent Warrior.

“Look at TJ, he's such a klutz,” a voice says.

“Yeah, he's always late for class and failing at life,” another says.

“He'll never be the man his father was, especially not with a sword that size,” the first voice laughs.

Silent Warrior is about to breakdown, when he starts to laugh.

“What's so funny?” Miss Trust asks. “Why isn't my power of illusion working?”

“I've been put down so much in my life, it doesn't even bother me anymore,” he responds. “With friends like Styve, you get prepared for things like this!”

“I can't believe this idiot is proud of being a dumbass!”

“Well, I like being unique.”

“Oh forget this, I'll take care of you the old fashion way.”

Miss Trust then creates copies of herself to fight Silent Warrior.

“Sword of Power, with the stars glowing bright. Surrender your blade and give me might”

Silent Warrior calls forth his sword and prepares to fight. Miss Trust's clones attack him all at once, and they end up beating Silent Warrior down to the ground. Miss Trust herself then prepares to finish the job, when the card comes flying by.

“Sorry honey, but I'm going to have to ask you to not mess with my man,” Yellow LightStar says, appearing on the roof. “Also, while I'm thinking about it, you shouldn't try to corrupt young minds. A cram school is where students study to prepare for the SATs. How dare you plant a Dark Wedge and toy with the minds of innocent youths. I, Yellow LightStar, will be your opponent.”

“Oh shut up blondie,” the Droido yells.

She sends her clones after her, and one gets a good kick in, knocking her off the roof. She lands hard on the ground and Silent Warrior runs over to her. Miss Trust goes back to dealing with Dark Sabre, who is losing his mind. The guys keep trying to talk to him, but he won't have it.

“One more step and I'll take care of you all,” Dark Sabre says, getting his hands ready for his attack.

Scared of what his power could actually do, the guys, including Athena, jump out of the window and join Silent Warrior, Yellow LightStar, Prometheus, and Timmy. Dark Sabre comes to the window and sees the whole group.

“Look at how they mock and make fun of you,” Miss Trust says to him.

Dark Sabre jumps out the window himself, and faces the others, getting ready to do his attack.

“Please, listen to us, we are your friends,” Dark Blade insists.

“Dark Sabre, hate those who are bad mouthing you and kill them!” Miss Trust demands.

“That pose…he's going to use his storm attack to freeze us all,” Dark Blade panics.

“You've got to stay focused, Dark Sabre,” Athena says.

“This is all your fault,” Silent Warrior yells at Miss Trust. “Ring of hope, with its soul burning bright. Relinquish this sword, its power, its might!”

Silent Warrior calls forth the Lyger Xero, and goes towards the Droido, when Dark Sabre hits him in the stomach, takes the two Swords. He then proceeds to knock him on the ground. The others rush to Silent Warrior, but Dark Sabre throws a dagger at the ground before them

“Don't move, or I'll kill you,” he threatens.

“I don't believe you'll kill us,” Silent Warrior says, getting off the ground. “Look into your soul, and remember us. Remember what we all mean to each other.”

Dark Sabre looks at him, and then at Miss Trust. He then looks at the Lyger Xero and the Sword of Power in his hands. The gems on both swords seem to sparkle, as if telling him to believe in the Brothers.

“You're right,” Dark Sabre finally says. “I'm not going to kill anyone…anyone except the person responsible for this! Dark Ice-Blizzard Storm!”

Dark Sabre uses the swords to amplify the power of his attack, and freezes Miss Trust's antennae off.

“I don't understand this at all; you were going to kill them!” she yells.

“That's where you're wrong. I wasn't going to kill my own friends. The friendship between us is too strong for someone like you to break it up. Silent Warrior, let's do this proper.”

Dark Sabre throws him the Lyger Xero, and he keeps the Sword of Power for himself.

“Sword of Power, come unto him. Take this jewel and set this Droido to ruin! Lyger Xero: Sword of Destruction!”

“Silent Custom Combo!”

The two attack, and the Droido is destroyed along with the gem being collected.

“You know guys, I'm impressed that you have so much faith in your team,” Yellow LightStar comments. “Good job Brother Soldiers, good job.”

Back on her ship, Emerald Weapon is taking another bubble bath, when Sapphire Weapon interrupts again.

“I can't believe you lost to those brats again,” he complains. “This is why I told you to stop taking that lazy bath and do some work.”

“Oh please, I told you not to worry,” Emerald Weapon cackles. “Now leave; a woman deserves her privacy, and there's only one person I want seeing me naked, and guess what? That person is not you.”

Sapphire Weapon leaves, and Emerald Weapon gets upset because she lost again.

At school the next day, TJ thanks Tyrese for not giving them the deep freeze the night before.

“Don't worry; I know you guys believe me,” Tyrese says.

“We want to apologize for whatever we said to you,” Marcy says, walking up with the group from yesterday. “We actually admire your grades and hope we can get some like yours.”

“Well it just comes from studying hard.”

“I can't believe these guys, kissing up to him all of a sudden. It makes me sick to my stomach,” TJ complains.

“Come on now T, you know it was the dark power of Emerald Weapon,” Damon says.

“Maybe you should come to cram school with us so you can get better scores,” Marcy says.

TJ goes running down the hall saying he hates studying, and Tyrese smiles.
