The Ronnin Warriors: The Beggining
Once there were two girls fighting. They were both very good friends. One was a beautiful girl named PrincessLovelyLauren, PLL as they called her. The other girl was named Ice_fire_Angel, Ice as they called her. The reason they were fighting was to get into the clan of the Ronnin Warriors. The Ronnin Warriors lived in the forest, far from civilization. Ice was a member of the Ronnin Warriors and was fighting PLL so she could get in RW. The Emperor, Talpa, was watching with an amused grin. Suddenly PLL swiped her sword at Ice and cut her deeply in the shoulder. Emperor Talpa then stopped the fight and gave PLL her TD tags. TD stands for The Dynasty. PLL put on her TD tags and magically changed into Princess±of±Heaven. PLL took off the ring that appeared and turned back into herself. Everyone was staring at her in amazement. Then they all looked away and started doing what they were doing before. PLL walked over to Ice, wrapped up the cut, and apologized. Then a cute guy walked past them and caught PLL's eye. Ice noticed PLL staring at him and said," His name is Quatre Winner." " I think I'm in lover!" PLL whispered. The next day, PLL and Ice started training. Ice threw an electro ball at PLL and she took the hit. PLL noticed the guy staring at her and called fire-rain on Ice. Ice blocked it with her water shield and PLL called the attack off. Ice called a 20-minute break. Just as PLL was walking to go rest when Quatre walked infront of her. He said," Nice job out there." PLL blushed and whispered a quick Thanks. She ran up to Ice as soon as Quatre was out of sight. Ice laughed and said," Havin' fun PLL?" " Ready to train again?" PLL asked. "Ummmm…. Lauren, I'm not your trainer anymore." Ice said quickly. "Who…Who is then?" Lauren asked impatiently and nervously. "Well, your new trainer is called Armorine." Ice said. "Who's Armorine?" Lauren asked. " Well Lauren, to tell you the truth, he's a friend of your Mother, Princess±of±Hell, and your Father, Light±Knight." Ice said matter-of-factly. "So, what your saying is that he was a request from my parents?!?!" Lauren asked. "No, actually, it was a request from me." Ice stated. "So, where is this Armorine guy?" Lauren asked as Armorine walked up to her. " Hi Lauren, I shall be your new trainer as a request from Ice_Fire." Armorine said. "Oh, and you can call me Arm." He said. "Bye!" Ice whispered to Lauren as she left. "So, shall we start or what?" He said. "Lets go." Lauren said and smiled. She pulled out her two Heaven swords and swiped them at Armorine. She cut him deeply across the shoulder. Armorine cut Lauren across the chest. Lauren fell to her knees, so Armorine called a break. Lauren leaned against a tree and began throwing daggers at another tree. She heard footsteps and accidently threw a dagger into Trowa Barton's shoulder. "I'm sorry Trowa!" Lauren said in a regretful tone. Trowa pulled put a gun and shot Lauren in her right leg. Quatre jumped from the tree he was in and caught Lauren as she began to fall. Quatre carried her to his house and wrapped up her wounds. "Thanks." Lauren said. She tried to stand but fell to her knees in pain. "PLEAZE!!! Don't try to walk!" Quatre shouted. "What's wrong?" Lauren asked. "Your leg is broken." He replied. " Just my luck, I get into TD and I break my leg." Quatre set Lauren on the couch and sat beside her. "Is there anything I could do for you Lauren?" He said. "Yes, "she replied," Help me back to the rest of the clan please." "Sure thing." He said. Quatre picked her up and carried her to the others. Ice and Arm immediately ran up and asked what happened. Quatre didn't realize it, but Lauren had fainted on the way back. "Here." Quatre said, laying Lauren in Armorine's arms. "Thanks." Armorine said, eyeing Quatre. Quatre left and Lauren awoke, staring into Arm's face. "Where am I?" Lauren asked, then fainted again. Lauren was then passed to Trowa so Arm could rest. Trowa held Lauren tightly, sorry for hurting her. Lauren awoke for good this time. "Trowa?" She whispered in a questioning tone. "Yes Lauren, I'm here for you." Trowa said kindly. Lauren held with the best grip she could. Trowa held Lauren tightly and walked to Ice. "She's awake Ice." He said. That night, Lauren fell into a deep sleep. When she awoke, she saw Trowa. "Do you need anything Lauren?" Trowa asked. "Breakfast would be nice." She replied. "Right away." He replied as he raced down the stairs and started preparing breakfast. Lauren snapped her fingers. She appeared dressed in her silver T-shirt, silver skirt, and silver trench coat. While Trowa was still preparing breakfast, Lauren snuck out with her crutches. She started to train by herself. She managed to balance on her good leg. Trowa noticed that she wasn't upstairs and called Ice. Ice rushed into the forest and immediately found Lauren. "What do you think you're doing out here injured!!!!?????" Ice yelled. "Training?" Lauren replied. "Not with that broken leg you aren't. NOW MARCH HOME!!!!" Ice yelled. Lauren sighed and walked home. Quatre jumped infront of Lauren when Ice was gone. "Hi beautiful." Quatre said. Lauren blushed. "Need some help home miss?" He asked. Without waiting for the answer, He picked Lauren up and took her home. Lauren laughed and obediently stayed on the couch where Quatre put her. Quatre sat beside her. Soon Lauren fell asleep with her head in Quatre's lap. Quatre smiled and carefully cradled her head. Quatre carefully drifted to sleep along-side her. Trowa looked at them both kindly and left. As Lauren awoke, she saw a face above her. She smiled as she saw it was Quatre's delicate face. She noticed he was asleep. She got up quietly. She used her crutches, managed to get into the kitchen, and cooked breakfast. Quatre awoke and immediately smelled something good in the kitchen. When he went in there he saw Lauren setting out plates full of muffins and plates full of cookies. She also handed Quatre a plate filled with food that she cooked for him. He said Thanks and ate it all. "I got a little bored this morning so I got up and cooked." She said. Quatre got up when he was finished and voluntarily did the dishes. "Thanks but that wasn't necessary." Lauren said. "Well I did it anyway." He replied. " Well, I appreciate it anyhow." She stated. She layed back on the couch and fell to sleep as Trowa walked in. "Thank god you're up Quatre!" "What's wrong Trowa?" Quatre asked. "Big trouble, it's Zechs." Trowa replied. "Not again!" Quatre said. Lauren awoke as she heard a crash. "What was that?" She called. Quatre rushed to her, reassuring her it was nothing. Quatre asked." Would you like to go for a ride in Sandrock with me?" He asked. "OK." She replied happily. They climbed in Sandrock and flew into the air. Behind them, Trowa flew HeavyArms. Trowa Barton and Quatre Winner were both kind souls. They cared deeply about life, but did as they needed to on mussions. Lauren cared fir Quatre deeply. After they left the battle against Treiz, they went back home. Quatre sat with Lauren and talked to her seriously. He told Lauren that he had to go on a mission in Outer Space. He said that when he got back, he wished to marry her. He said that he would be back in a week at most. Lauren said she'd wait until his return and kissed him the most tender goodbye kiss she could give. That was the last they heard of Quatre Winner for a long time. Lauren erupted into deep sobs when Quatre didn't come back.
About a year later, Lauren heard people saying that Quatre was back. Lauren frantically
searched for him. One day, a young man covered Lauren's eyes and said "Guess who?" Lauren whipped around to find Quatre, threw her arms around him, and kissed him. That night, they locked into a passionate embrace. They put off the wedding until later. The next morning, Lauren found out she was pregnant. They both decided the baby's name was to be Chi Cha. What they didn't know was that Lauren was expecting twins. She went to the doctor and found out she was having twins. They decided that they would name the other child Duo. Lauren's leg was, of course, long healed by that time. Lauren would still train with her swords and magic. She even fought monsters during her pregnancy. When Lauren was training one day. She fell to her knees in pain. She sent a telepathic message to Quatre saying, " HELP". Quatre rushed her to the hospital quickly. Lauren was having the twins. They were born at 4:00 AM on October 7th, 2000. Lauren held them both close to her and smiled up at Quatre kindly.
Quatre had set up a surprise wedding for Lauren and himself. All their friends were there. Chi Cha was the flower girl, IceFire was the Bride's Maid, Anubis was the Best Man, and Duo was the ring bearer. Quatre had told Lauren to wear something extra nice. Lauren wore a red rose, velvet, long, tight dress with slits all the way up to her knees. Quatre just wore a nice white shirt and khakis. Lauren walked hand-in-hand with Quatre. She leaned her head on his shoulder. Quatre took her into a tent on a stretch of beach. Lauren was finally getting married and she knew it by all her friends and the minister in the front. Tears came to her eyes. She was soooo happy. She made the kiss extra long. That was it. They were married. Lauren felt wonderful.
About six years later, It was the twins' Birthday. Chi Cha turned out to be a really beautiful girl who resembled her mother greatly. Duo ended up a handsome gentleman who resembles his father. Quatre and Lauren were still head over heels in love. Lauren and Quatre invited everyone in the {TD} and everyone else they knew. The twins were at the park. Lauren was driving over to the park to pick them up. Suddenly, a car rammed into Lauren's. Lauren's car was teetering over the edge of the bridge. Any slight movement would probably send it tumbling over the edge. She layed sprawled on the bottom of the car, uncontiously. About 4 hours later, everyone got really worried. They all knew Lauren would have been back several hours ago if she was all right. The person in the other car came to their senses and called an ambulance. The car rushed off, leaving Lauren close to death. The ambulance got there in time and pulled Lauren out of the car as the car was plummeting into the water. The police called Quatre and the gang. They told them it was a hit-and-run. The police also told them that Lauren was uncontious. Everyone was crying because they didn't know what would happen.
Lauren awoke from her coma and saw a dark figure in the corner. The figure moved towards her. He was a paid assassin that came to put her out of her misery. He was paid to do so by Sekhment of Venom. He despised Lauren because she had always got what she wanted from their parents. He just got yelled at most of the time. Their parents thought Sekhement was dead. The assasin walked to her, covered her mouth, and held a gun to her head. She thought that was it, she would die right then and there. She pressed herself closer to the gun and said," Do it, shoot me." Quatre walked in the room at that moment. He kicked the assasin out of the window and hid the gun in his coat pocket. He sat on the edge of Lauren's bed and comforted her. He kissed her on the forehead and said," Get better soon for me sweetheart." He stayed with her until she fell asleep. The next night, they let her go home. When she got there, she saw all her friends including Emperor Syre, Kento of Hardrock, Empress Hope, Kyoto, Archangel of Fire, Teenage Princess, Seifer, Sage, Sephiroth, Dark Sephiroth, and too many others to list. She said Goodbye to everyone and walks into the beautiful rose garden, searching for a passage out of the forest.
Epilogue
Lauren woke up in a cold sweat. It was all a dream, she told herself. She got out of bed and walked outside. There was nothing out there but pure blackness. She could only see a couple of things. She blinked rapidly and awoke from a 16-year coma. She had a perfect life. It was all a dream. She had just passed out because of a few too many pills. She would be OK. She looked around and noticed there was nothing but golden light. The story might not have been true, but she was really dead. She might have been an angel for a short time or a very long time. Who knew? She was too confused at the moment to tell if it was a dream or not. Lauren looked down at the people from the story. She looked at Quatre and winked. He winked back, knowing that he would go in his time and they would be reborn into that world once more, together. She knew it wouldn't be long but she was impatient. She wanted him now.
