" Crossing Paths " Written By: Deathangelgw
Disclaimer: Neither GW nor Ronin Warriors/YST are mine. I am not getting off of them, so don’t sue. Not worth it. The character Genaisa Tasaki is mine though. Warnings: AU, fusion/crossover, yaoi, sap, lime/lemon (later), OOC, somewhat dark, some angst, slight language, and, oh yeah, OC Pairings: I don’t know yet…just wait and see! Rating: Overall, prolly R Note: Kallie Drake had asked if we had seen any GW/RW crossovers. It kinda hit me to write one, since they are my two favorite shows. I am using the Ronin Warrior names, not the YST ones, due to the fact that I am not as familiar with the YST version. (I’m American…give me a break!) I have also put in an OC-> original character. I’ll try to watch the Mary Sueism. If this offends anyone, I’m sorry for that and don’t read on. Otherwise, enjoy! Feedback: Yes Please! I don’t know if I should continue this /Shadow speak/
Part 12 Author: Deathangelgw . Sage moaned softly in pain as he woke up. Blinking blearily, he tried to establish what had happened. Leaning up, he became more wary as he heard hissing and cackling, signs of the Shadows’ presence. As he looked around, memories of what had happened came back to him and he groggily croaked out, "Quatre? Genaisa?"A soft moan from his left informed him of Quatre’s whereabouts and he crawled over to his lover’s side. He tenderly stroked Quatre’s cheek and smiled as the aquamarine eyes showed themselves, and echoed the pain that the blonde Ronin felt. Quatre groaned again as he leaned up, then looked around, asking groggily, "Genaisa? Where…Where is she?" "Right here…in some way, shape, or form." Her mumbled response floated to them from their left and they turned to see her lean up and smirk slightly at them. She crawled over to them and they hugged together, drawing strength from the other. They all stiffened and got up swiftly into defensive postures as the sinister laughter of the Shadows grew around them. Genaisa’s eyes narrowed and she said softly, "Time to blow this pop-stand and put a little light on the subject." She brought her hand up and it began to glow and a small ball began to form. But, before the ball of light could gain any life, she cried out in surprise as her arm was snatched back and up, a black rope wrapped around her wrist. She reached to try and undo the rope, but was stopped by another rope. "Genaisa!" Sage cried out as she was strung up. Sage and Quatre raced to help her, but were captured the same way. They watched in anger and horror as her body was covered with tendrils of black lightening. Biting back a scream of pain, but not for long as her body arced under the pain. Screaming in agony, she tried to free herself. Sage and Quatre struggled vainly to free themselves, but then the torture spread to them, screaming, as they were shocked.An evil cackle floated to them as the lightening faded from their bodies and they looked up slowly, trying to ignore the pain that was racing through their bodies. Talpa laughed again and said, "Well, looks like the Keys have been enjoying our hospitality, wouldn’t you agree, My Queen?"They watched in pain-filled wariness as the shadows shifted and fluttered then parted to reveal a woman with long black hair. Her eyes glowed redly as she smiled wickedly at the now angered warriors. She floated towards Genaisa, who snarled softly at the woman. /Now now, my pet. That is no way to talk to your future mistress./ she said mockingly as she caressed a light finger down Genaisa’s front and then brought her hand up and slapped Genaisa hard. Genaisa snarled again, straining her bonds as her eyes glowed. "We serve no one bitch…except for the Light." She snarled softly as her hands began to glow. The Queen laughed softly, her red eyes glowing more as lightening came down again, causing Genaisa to scream in agony. Fading once more, the torture left Genaisa panting in pain, but still defiant. The Queen smiled again, no mirth present as she brought her hand up and scratched down Genaisa’s cheek, leaving a red line of blood in it’s wake. Genaisa strained in her bonds again, as did Sage and Quatre and the Queen laughed mockingly./I would suggest that you give up your struggling, my pets. But then…I always loved it when they fought back a bit. It makes the resulting defeat more to savor./ her voice scratched on the air as she spoke and went over to the other two warriors. She caressed a light finger down each of their fronts, as if marking them. The shadows surrounding them cackled and shifted with evil amusement, mocking the angered replies of the captured warriors. "You won’t get away with this. We will escape and then the Shadows are going down." Sage said defiantly and the Queen and Talpa laughed. /I highly doubt that, Sage of Halo. Soon, you and the other Keys will serve me and the Shadow Kingdom will reign all in darkness!/ she said as she looked at them, then her arm extended towards them, shooting out black lightening. The shadows shifted and hissed in glee as the sound of their screams mixed with the evil laughter of Talpa and the Queen. ++++++ Kento sighed impatiently and began to tap his foot as they all sat around and watched Mia try to find information on their enemy. Kayura and the new Ronins had informed them that the enemy was known as the Shadow Kingdom. Suddenly, Kento felt a hand on his leg, stopping him effectively. Looking down and then up in surprise, he saw his lover’s slightly annoyed look and smirked sheepishly. Taking his own hand, Kento laced their fingers together and they watched as Mia sighed in frustration. She looked up as Anubis put a comforting hand on her shoulder in concern and said softly, "I can’t find anything in my grandfather’s information on how we can get to them." Sighing in frustration again, she looked over at Kayura, her question asked silently. Kayura sighed sadly as she met the other woman’s gaze. "I’m sorry. I have no other information. Some guardian, huh?" she said ruefully as she looked down at her hands on the staff. Cale went over to her and placed a gentle hand on Kayura's shoulder and said softly, "It isn’t your fault. And you have indeed been an excellent guardian. It isn’t anyone’s fault that this happened so fast." She looked up at him and they smiled at each other. The others watched them, then looked at each other. Duo snickered softly but was shushed by Trowa as they all saw the little relationship that was budding between the two. Suddenly, they all jumped as Rowen cried out in pain, grasping at his middle as he bent over. Ryo, Heero, and Dais all ran over to the pain-filled Ronin. Rowen collapsed into Ryo’s arms panting as he groaned out, "No…stop it….you’re killing them…" The others looked at each other in shock as Duo asked, "Them?" Ryo held onto Rowen as he cried out again in pain, stiffening as shudders shook his body. Then, just as suddenly as the attack hit, it stopped. Rowen collapsed unconscious into Ryo’s arms with a groan. "Rowen!?" Ryo’s voice was filled with worry as he looked down at the unconscious face of his friend. Lines of pain still creased the blue-haired warrior’s face as Ryo brushed the sweat that had appeared around his friend’s face. Heero leaned in and put his arms gently under the Strata holder’s body and lifted him easily up and carried him to the couch in the corner of the room. Laying him out, they checked to make sure Rowen had a pulse, then put a pillow under his head. Duo looked at the scene with confusion. "What just happened? Who are the ‘them’ that he’s talking about?" he asked as Ryo sat with Rowen. Kayura went over to Rowen as well and placed a gentle hand on his face, then frowned. She sighed softly as she stood up and looked at Rowen. "It’s as I feared. He felt what the other three were experiencing through their link." "Link? What link?" Duo asked incredulously as they all looked at her in shock. "And what do you mean by what they are experiencing? Are Quatre, Sage, and Genaisa in pain?" Trowa asked softly as they all looked at Kayura. Cye scratched his head and said, "Well, we know that Rowen and Genaisa share a strong bond because they are basically meant to be. And, we Ronins share a bond through the armors and Genaisa as well. But…why would Rowen have a link with Quatre?" They all looked down thoughtfully at this then looked up as Mia gasped softly. "Of course! I forgot! Genaisa had given me a disc that holds everything she was taught by the Ancient. It even includes stuff about the staff! She said that I was to use it if she was never there to help out." She said excitedly as she put the disc into her computer. Kento laughed softly, "Leave it to Genaisa to think ahead!" He said laughingly and everyone relaxed slightly as they listened to her type swiftly. Duo then suddenly smacked his head. "Oh DUH…I am so stupid! They all walked in yesterday together…which means that they must have…. Man! Didn’t know Rowen was into that!" He said laughingly. Kento scratched his head in confusion as he watched Trowa elbow the snickering Duo and said, "I don’t get it. They came in together and had prolly done some….exercising….ooohhh…I get it now…." He blushed slightly as the realization hit on what ‘kind’ of exercise his friends had engaged in. Wufei chuckled softly and smiled reassuringly at his lover. Kayura nodded then looked over as Rowen moaned softly as he woke up. Ryo leaned closer and asked anxiously, "Rowen? You ok?" Rowen’s eyes slowly slid open as he groaned. Struggling, he tried to sit up and hissed in pain and would have fallen backwards if Dais hadn’t sat down behind him and supported his body. Rowen leaned weakly against Dais and panted as he tried to let the pain pass through him. "They are…being tortured. Badly. It felt like I was put out into an electric storm with metal clothing." He said softly as he panted, slowly relaxing as the pain receded. He opened hazy eyes and gazed at Ryo, who looked at him in concern. "Why are they being tortured? How can we get to them?" Heero asked softly then turned his gaze to Kayura. Kayura sighed sadly and said, "They are the chosen ones…the Keys. With their power, if they are turned, the Shadow Kingdom will be able to open a gateway to this realm and plunge our world into darkness. But, they seem to need to ‘prepare’ them." She frowned in worry and looked up as Cale placed an arm around her shoulders. Duo growled softly as he said, "Ain’t no way those bastards are going to do that to MY world!" The others nodded in agreement then turned in surprise as Mia shouted in triumph. "Yes! I have it!" she said and Anubis leaned in closer, looking over her shoulder in curiosity. She looked up at him and smiled in relief as she said, "Genaisa said that the staff is able to make a portal to a place if there is someone there that the staff can connect to." Ryo looked over at Anubis and said, "So that’s how you were able to make a portal for us to the Dynasty. The guys were already there so you used that." Anubis nodded and smiled softly. Cale looked at Mia and said, "So, this means that Kayura would be able to open a portal with the staff by using the fact that Sage, Genaisa, and Quatre are all there?" Mia nodded affirmatively and smiled at Kayura. Kento stood up, practically bouncing. "Well, what are we waiting for?! C’mon! They need our help!" he said impatiently. Trowa looked at Kento and said softly, "But, once we are there…how do we find our friends?" Kento visibly drooped as he realized this. Rowen struggled to his feet and wobbled as he said softly, "I will lead you to them." Ryo got up and supported his friend with an arm as he said softly, "Rowen…you’re too weak. Are you sure you can?" Rowen smiled reassuringly at him and nodded. Duo stood up and said, "Well, like Kento said…What are we waiting for?!" A chorus of agreement answered him. "Right. Let’s head for Toyama and get our friends out." Ryo said sternly and they all nodded. Putting on their sub armors, they then headed for Toyama.
+++++ Wufei sighed softly as they looked at the shadow-enshrouded city of Toyama. "So many people. I wonder if they are alright." He said softly as they looked at the city. Trowa looked at his comrade with sad eyes and said, "Let’s hope that the Shadows didn’t get them." Wufei gazed at his friend and nodded. Sighing sadly, Ryo said softly, "If they are working with Talpa….we won’t be so lucky. He uses the people’s fear like we do food. It’s how he survived for all those years." The remaining Gundam warriors looked at him in worry as he looked over at Kayura. Nodding, they both turned towards the city. "Well….if we’re going to free the city and our friends, we better get to it." Kento said with determined glee. He was just itching for a fight. He needed to get back at those shadows for torturing his friends and they all knew that getting into the city wouldn’t be easy. But, they needed to get as close to the edge or farther in as possible in order for Kayura and the staff to get a focus on the three missing warriors. Nodding firmly in determination, the other warriors took one last look at the city. Then, at a fast pace, they headed for the forsaken metropolitan. As they neared the suburbs of the city, they grew grim as they saw all of the shadow soldiers that were waiting for them, hissing in anticipation as they shifted and rustled. Speeding up his pace, Kento snarled as he jumped into the middle of a fairly large group of shadows. Getting as many hits as he gave, he smirked as Wufei backed him up, a muttered, "Baka" drifting towards his ear. Kento snarled as the shadows hissed mockingly as he fought them, noticing that the others were fighting, but they weren’t making any headway. Finally, Ryo and Heero looked at each other and nodded. "Armor up!" came from them in unison. The others nodded and soon faced the shadows in their full gear. Heero brought up his swords as the glimmering wings appeared and he called out, "Angel…Wing…BLAST!" The white light from the angel form that had appeared blasted out and left a cleared column in its wake. The Ronins and the Gundams ran through that path, fighting off the shadows as they attacked till they finally came to the edge of the shadows. Trowa and Duo looked at each other and nodded once then did their attacks. "Death…Scythe…WAVE!" "Star…Shower…ATTACK!" The shadows were effectively cleared out and they all looked around. Cale looked at Kayura and said, "Now, Lady. While we are in the clear." Rowen looked at her and said softly, "Take care of Mia and Yuli, ok?" Kayura nodded at the group, then brought up the staff and pointed it at the shadowed area. The staff began to clang loudly and a ball of light appeared at the end ball of the staff. Flying out, the ball stopped in the center of the shadowy cloud that surrounded the city and grew. When it stopped growing, Kayura looked at them and said softly, "Go quickly and remember that light is their weakness. But, it isn’t their end. In order to defeat them, you may have to sacrifice. Be aware…if the Keys are transformed and the Door is opened, the world will be lost. Be ready to make that sacrifice if you need to." The warriors nodded solemnly at her, then turned to the portal. Duo smirked evilly and said, "Well what are we waiting for? Time to kick some shadow tail!" Kento laughed and slapped the Deathscythe warrior on the shoulder. "Right on brother! Let’s take em down!" he said and the others nodded, smirking confidently. Ryo looked at Heero and Anubis, then turned to the others. "Let’s do it." He said calmly and they all walked into the portal that called them.
