You know Odin is crazed with power, don’t be like him brother.
Matalix
DON’T TALK TO ME ABOUT CRAZED WITH POWER, BROTHER!! You… betrayed… us!
Sairaks
I don’t quite understand what you’re saying?

For our people?! WHAT PEOPLE?! THEY ARE DEAD!! MY SON IS GONE!!
Sairaks
I am so sorry.

Kenny, Mike, and Chase put their Ryukin Daggers on the kitchen table.
Chase
So we all have these random daggers that somehow gave us these visions of the past.
Kenny
I’m not sure mine was but maybe, it’s just a theory.
Chase
A game theory.
Kenny
Chase, this is why your family hates you.
Mike
Mine showed me a weird figure the killed so many people. Freezing people while they tried to run.
chase
Was your figure was in a primary color while riding a dragon killing British soldiers during the revolutionary war?
Mike
Okay I think we had different visions.
Kenny
Mine was completely different. I didn’t recognize where I was. I only know is I saw a gold person fighting someone but that’s all I remember.
Mike
There was one moment after my vision I froze this one guy.
Kenny
Wait, you froze someone?
Mike
Yeah! After my vision I saw two guys being huge dicks towards this girl. I stopped them and I accidentally froze one of them.
Chase
Wait, you got super powers but I didn’t? I call that BS!
Mike
Chase!
Chase
What?
Mike
Your hand is burning the table!!
Chase looks at his left hand and sees the table caught on fire and his hand is glowing yellow. Chase gets up and run toward the sink. Kenny turns the sink on and water comes out. Smoke starts to evaporate the kitchen but the hand is still glowing.
Chase
Guys help me!!!

We’re trying but you’re to hot!

ext. ABANDONED CONSTRUCTION Site
Chase puts textbooks on a stand and moves back. Mike and Kenny are watching from a distance
Mike
Do you think it’s wise to do this here?
Chase
I remember something about the vision. Some red guy was spitting fire out his hands.
Kenny
So you think that’s wise while doing that here out in the open?
Chase
You rather we do in the apartment?
Kenny smirks at Chase.
Chase
NO! Not that type of doing it!
Kenny giggles. Chase concentrates but can’t seem to make his hand glow again.
Chase
Guys I don’t know why but it’s not working.
Kenny and Mike are trying not to laugh
Chase
STOP LAUGHING THIS IS SERIOUS!
Kenny and Mike are dying. They recover.
Mike
Oh, god. Well was there something you were thinking about before your hand became a candle?
Chase
Well I was pissed what happened with the thug situation.
Mike
Well think of something that makes you mad. That might help.
Chase remembers the hell he had to go through in Video Production 2 with Doctor Mendoza. Both if arms go up in flames and shoots a fire ball at one of the text books.
Mike
OH SHIT!!
Kenny
Um, Chase your shirt is on fire.
Chase looks at his sleeves.

Chase
Um kenny, I know it was mike’s turn but now it’s a good time I don’t know. Help!
Kenny
Dude I don’t know what to do!!
Mike
Well, start figuring it out then!
Kenny closes his eyes and tries to concentrate. Chase ignites his flames on his arms. Mike tries to summon his ice powers but he’s having trouble. As the dark riders move slowly like zombies, the dark riders start to rush in. Ryukin Green, Yellow and Silver rush in and manage to take 3 of the dark riders.

Mike
So do we run?
Chase
No shit, lets get out of here!
MIKE AND CHASE TRY TO RUN BUT BUMP INTO SARIAKS.
Sairaks
You must me be the three I seek.
Kenny reorganizes Sairaks but does say anything.
Kenny
What do you mean?
Sairaks
You three are part of an organization. Known as the Ryukinger. That worship the dragon gods. Passed down to generation of the guardians of the Yggdrasil Tree. Bringing balance to the nine realms.
Kenny
And your one of them? A god?
Sairaks walks towards Kenny
Sairaks
You learn fast, I can see why Nidhogg has blessed you.
Sairaks turns kenny towards the battle.
Sairaks
Nidhogg has the power of darkness, corruptions, devouring souls. Concentrate.
Kenny concentrates, 6 of the dark riders sink within their shadows. The battle stops the dark riders noticed their comrades disappeared. Sairaks gives Kenny, Mike, and Chase their Ryukin Bullets.
Sairaks
Destiny has been written in the book of the dragon that you three will become the next generation of sin. Lets use that sin to our advantage.
Chase
Sorry but I didn’t sign up for anything. So i’m going to leave.
Chase starts to leave. He starts to get sick. Like his stomach is getting crushed.
Sairaks
You’re right, you didn’t sign. But your father did.
Chase stops and walks back and looks at Sairak’s book he sees Chase’s name on the book including Kenny’s and Mike’s.
Chase
What the-OUR NAMES ARE ONE HERE!!
Sairaks
If you three fight for me now, I will explain everything.
Chase, Kenny, and Mike look at each other. They load the bullet in the ryukin dagger and morph to the Ryukingers. Fire rises out from the ground and Mike is Ryukin Blue, Kenny is Ryukin Black, Chase is Ryukin Red.
Sairaks
Go my Ryukinger, purge the weak.
Chase, and Mike charge in. Kenny looks at Sariaks with a sense of distrust. Kenny charges in with the other. A new chapter begins.
