Hidden Ninja Village - Pinky and the Brain

[YolkaEd]

"Right. Guess Yusei found Yuma after all..." With that, he began driving towards where they were as well.

[Ninetalesuk]

He glanced around to look at the area carefully... hoping all the evil forces have left... thus, leaving him a question about their new enemy... "Ugh..."

[kelik]

The two followed Crow.

------------

"What a mess..." Said a voice.

@hanzo@ As a ninja appeared next to Yusei. "But I must thank you, Signers. You saved my clan..."

@blaster@ The two came up to the scene too.

----------------

The Silver ninja from before appeared near Yuma. "Your friends are gathering at the temple, you will have your chance at revenge soon, boy."

[Ninetalesuk]

"?!" He turned to Hanzo. "....You're the leader of this village...?"

[YolkaEd]

It didn't take long for him to soon come up to where Yusei and the others seemed to be, coming to a halt next to them.

[AnT]

Muttering and pouting like a kid, and slumped back to the temple.

[kelik]

@hanzo@ "I am...Grandmaster Ninja Hanzo."

They came up too, and stopped.

@hanzo@ "You must be the Signers."

'Signers...?' He blinked.

"Yeah...any idea who these bastards are?"

@hanzo@ "I do...to an extent." He said. "They are called the Shadow Knights, a group of monsters that appeared from thin air one day. Until now, there has been no information on them..."

[Ninetalesuk]

"...Shadow Knights...." He muttered, arms crossed. "....per chance the Shadow Knight's leader is something called.... Origin Mage...?"

[AnT]

And Yuma arrived, just in time to listen in.

[YolkaEd]

"...they mentioned something like that, the two we fought... just before they burst into flames and died..."

[kelik]

@hanzo@ "I do not know...even we ninja have limited information on them. The only one who knows a good deal of them is..."

@blaster@ "Me." The knight stepped up.

"Who are you?"

@blaster@ "Blaster Blade, a Royal Knight."

'Royal...Knight?' He thought. 'That sounds familiar too...'

[Ninetalesuk]

He blinked at the white knight. "....you know about them...? Are they working for Nightshroud of Ha Des...?"

[kelik]

@blaster@ "They...are my clan's true enemies." His eyes narrowed. "The Shadow Knights..."



"Also known as Shadow Paladins, they're a large group of fallen knights, mages, beasts, and even dragons that have gathered together to destroy everything in their path. They gathered under one ruler..."



"Phantom Blaster Dragon. A powerful Abyss Dragon that thirsts for war and malice...he grows on it."

@blaster@ "He wanted to start a massive war between several clans in the past..."

"A bloodbath, eh...?"

@neos@ The hero appeared, crossing his arms. "Hm..."

"He wanted to start a war..." She looked stunned.

"Whoa..."

[YolkaEd]

"...oh, great." Crow groaned. "So now we've got this Phantom Blaster to worry about, on top of Nightshroud and Ha Des..."

[Ninetalesuk]

"As I feared... we've got THREE groups of enemies to deal with..." He closed his eyes and sighed. "And we have no idea which group is the worst..."

[AnT]

"We totally need more duelists..." he groaned.

[kelik]

"No kidding..." She blinked. "But, you fought them in the past right?"

@blaster@ "Correct. I thought we had defeated them at one point as well."

"Then you should know how to defeat them again, right?"

@blaster@ "...."

"Well?"

@blaster@ "I'm...not sure."

"What?!"

@hanzo@ "Allow me to explain." He cut in. "The knight claims he's lost his memories since we found him. They've been slowly coming back though..."

@blaster@ "While I remember a few major details, i can't recall everything so well...including a large piece of the war: The conclusion."

"Oh no..."

[Ninetalesuk]

"....Do you have any knowledge on... a Origin Mage...?" He asked.

[kelik]

@blaster@ "Origin Mage...Ildona."

"Who?" He blinked.



"Phantom Blaster's right hand man, and the most powerful warlock in the Shadow Knights. He's a manipulative man as well, who gains power from the souls of his fallen comrades."

"Souls of the fallen...a lot of those cards revolved around killing off their own allies." She frowned.

@blaster@ "That is the trait of the Shadow Knights, cut down your fellow ally for victory..."

"Feh..."

[YolkaEd]

"...geez... some creep." Crow murmured, as he shook his head. "And we have to deal with his minions now?"

[AnT]

"Indeed. If Yuma would've defeated that mage..." he said, wondering about the outcome.

[Ninetalesuk]

"And he punishes anyone who fails him if they lose a Duel, right...? Just like the two Crow and I faced... they were burned to death with their cards in ruins..."

[kelik]

@hanzo@ "They seem like powerful foes indeed...against them, Ha Des and Nightshroud..."

@blaster@ "All hope...is lost..." He looked down. "My comrades are scattered, and most likely dead...if Phantom Blaster Dragon comes then..."

@neos@ "Hm..."

"We can't just give up!" Said the blue haired boy.

@hanzo@ @blaster@ @neos@ Earning some stares from the crowd.

"Uh, I mean..." He shied away again. "Well...if this dragon guy is really as bloodthirsty as you say he is...then he...could have come down himself...ya know?"

@hanzo@ "...."

@blaster@ "...."

@neos@ "...."

"...he's got a point." He said. "Why didn't the dragon fight himself?"

@blaster@ "...indeed." He blinked. "Phantom Blaster Dragon loves the battlefield, he wouldn't leave most of this to just his minions...perhaps he isn't at full strength!"

[YolkaEd]

"...so we've just gotta take care of this guy before he finishes powering up." Crow remarked, as he folded his arms. "A bit out of the way, but I won't mind a challenge!"

[AnT]

"Umm...if we can find the guy..." he said, scratching his head.

[Ninetalesuk]

"Must be hiding... like Nightshroud..." He sighed. "This won't be easy..."

[kelik]

"Yeah...but at least we got time." He looked over. "Right?"

@blaster@ "We do..." He said and walked along. "I'll find him..."

"Whoa whoa, you're planning on taking them by yourself?!"

@blaster@ "I have to...it's my duty..."

"That's suicide!" He came up. "Come on, be reasonable here!"

"...by the way, who's the kid?"

@hanzo@ "It's quite a story...at any rate, onto other matters." He snapped his fingers.

@white@ @blue@ And the two recovered dragon ninja appeared with a figure in their arms.

@glow@ "@#$!"

@neos@ "Glow Moss!"

[YolkaEd]

"...oh, that's a plus!" Crow remarked... and then, they'd hear motor noise in the distance. "And I think I hear a different plus!"

Indeed, for in the distance...



...was another group that was approaching the village rapidly on their own vehicles.

[AnT]

And the passenger waving to them.

[Ninetalesuk]

He smiled. "....Looks like the others are arriving..."



As noted, he appeared on his bike...
