Open with the sun coming up and Erica walking into the kitchen. Michael is cooking breakfast, Erica comes up behind him.1
Erica2
So you can cook huh?3
Michael4
No not really, I just know eggs. Can I ask you something?5
Erica6
Sure what is it?7
Michael8
Why did that sword chose me? I’m no fighter.9
Erica10
That’s why. The Soul Sword picks it’s wielder by how pure their heart is.11
Michael12
But I can’t use it. Last night was a fluke.13
Erica14
That may be true, the sword fed off your emotions. When you wanted to protect me, it activated. That is the key to the Shadow armor.15
Michael16
So that’s it? All I have to do is want to protect something, and boom?!17
Erica18
Well not really. Your emotions call your powers out, but you need to hone your mind. I will train you, show you how to fight. Teach you to focus your thoughts.19
Michael20
I don't think I can do this. You saw that guy the other night? We barely ran him off.21
Erica22
We didn't run him off. Wolf would have kept fighting, if my father had not stopped him.23
Michael24
Your father, you mean that voice I heard was your … Erica cuts Michael off.25
Erica26
Yes his name is Shaw Lo. He is a powerful sorcerer that is bent on…. Michael
Let me guess...ruling the world!27
Erica28
Something like that, he wants to wipe the world clean first though. Kill every living thing, then use his dark powers to remake everything.29
Michael30
See; how can I stop that?!31
Erica32
For now he is too weak to mount an all out attack. That’s why he sent Wolf after you. It took all he could to open a doorway back to this world. I would say we have two months to train and find others to wear the other five armors.33
In Shaw Lo’s throne room34
Shaw Lo35
Void... I summon you!36
A black hole opens and Void appears kneeling on one knee.37
Void 38
Yes lord; how may I serve you?39
Shaw Lo40
I want you to spy on my daughter and that boy. I want to know their every move! I don’t have the strength yet needed to call forth my Despair Knights to crush them.41
Void42
Let me kill them master?43
Shaw Lo44
As long as that boy has that sword you can’t touch them. My power is the only thing that can kill him.45
Den Ron enters the chamber behind Shaw Lo46
Den Ron’s thoughts47
If he is too weak, what would stop me from taking over?48
Shaw Lo’s eyes glow red49
Shaw Lo50
You forget your place fool… Shaw Lo turns to Den Ron and uses his power to push him up on a wall. 51
Shaw Lo52
Just because I am not strong enough to take care of that boy, does not mean I can’t kill you. I gave you only a speck of my power to help me, but do not think it is enough to overthrow anything.53
Den Ron54
Yes master! I’m sorry!55
Den Ron falls to the floor and cowers away56
Back at Michael’s house in the bedroom, a masked woman is breaking in. She picks up one of the crest.57
Erica58
Do you feel that?59
Michael60
Feel what?61
Erica jumps up from the table and runs into Michaels room.62
Erica63
Stop!64
Erica grabs the women and flips her. The masked woman sweep kicks Erica and jumps up. The two woman start to fight and Michael gets in the middle.65
Michael66
What are you doing here?! Who are you?67
Jasmine68
Just call me Black Tiger. I’m not sure how you knew I was in here, but I’m not going to jail!69
Jasmine throws a smoke bomb. Erica grabs her arm and kicks her in the stomach.70
Jasmine71
How are you able to track me?72
Erica 73
You may be able to lower your spirit energy, but not enough to hide from me.74
Jasmine75
Well if I can’t run, let’s see what happens when I raise it?76
Jasmine gets into a low fighting stance. As soon as her spirit energy spikes a little the striker crest starts to glow.77
Jasmine78
What is that thing?!79
The crest levitates, and then shoots at her. It locks onto Jasmines arm. Michael has an amazed look on his face.80
Michael 81
But she’s a thief… Before he can finish, Jasmine moves around him and throws him at Erica.82
Jasmine83
I’m not sure what this is, but I am sure I can get a lot of money for it.84
Jasmine runs for the front door; she slips out of the house. Michael and Erica give chase through the woods, unaware they are being watched from a black hole in the sky.85
Void heads back to Shaw Lo’s stronghold. He walks into the throne room. Shaw Lo has just finished dispatching Den Ron.86
Shaw Lo87
You have something to report already?88
Void 89
One of the crests has bonded with someone. A girl; she is running from them though. I do not think she is with them.90
Shaw Lo slams his hand on his throne91
Shaw Lo 92
Void, you may get to have some fun after all. Trap the girl and steal the crest!93
Void94
What do you want me to do with her after I get the crest?95
Shaw Lo96
Do with her as you wish… Shaw Lo lets out an evil laugh.97
Void98
Understood99
Void walks into a black hole and it closes behind him.100
Cut to Jasmine as she makes it to her car on the main road. A black hole opens and sucks her in. Jasmine is now standing in Void's dimension with a stunned look on her face. Void comes through the ground with his arms crossed.101
Void102
Welcome child.103
Jasmine104
Who are you?105
Void106
Your executioner…With that he pulls out a two sided axe and throws it at her. Jasmine back flips, then (throws three throwing knifes) that deflect the axe, and it returns to Void. 107
Void108
Very good; now try this… Void jumps into a black hole and others start to open. His axe comes through a hole behind Jasmine. The Striker crest lights up. A chain with a grappling hook comes out, and grabs the axe and throws it into another black hole. Void then drops out of a hole above her head and slashed at her. Jasmine blocks with the steal guard on her arm, then takes a few steps back. Void sinks into another hole and comes out of one across the dimension from Jasmine. He pulls out another axe and laughs.109
Void110
Your luck has just run out little girl!111
Michael and Erica make it to Jasmine's car.112
Michael113
Where is she?114
Erica’s Night Hawk crest starts glowing115
Erica116
Void has her!117
Michael118
Who is Void?119
Erica120
Another one of my father’s generals. We have to go to his dimension if we want to save her. But she may already be dead.121
Michael122
How can we go there?123
Erica starts to chant and puts her hands together. Her eyes start to glow and a doorway opens. She grabs Michaels arm and they run into it.124
Cutting back to Void and Jasmine, Void throws his second axe into a black hole beside him and charges Jasmine. Right when he is about to cut her, Erica comes through and grabs his arm. She moves it to block the axe that has come out right beside Jasmine's head. Void frees himself and kicks at Erica’s head. Erica ducks and hits him in the chest with a force blow pushing him back.125
Void126
The traitor shows herself! Now I can kill all three of you!127
Shaw Lo128
Void return now!!!129
Void 130
But master!131
Shaw Lo132
Do not question me!133
Void 134
Today is your lucky day…Voids second axe returns and he jumps down a black hole. Erica, Michael, and Jasmine are now standing in front of jasmines car. Erica turns to Jasmine.135
Erica136
You have to come with us!137
Jasmine138
I’m not going anywhere until someone tells me what’s going on? Who was that?139
Erica140
That was Void. A general for Shaw Lo.141
Back at Shaw Lo’s stronghold Void is in the hallway. Shaw Lo walks up to him. 142
Shaw Lo143
I asked you to kill one person; now tell me why should I keep you alive? 144
Void145
I would have had her if Erica had not stepped in…Shaw Lo shoots an electric charge at void bringing him to his knees.146
Void 147
I’m sorry master. 148
Shaw Lo149
My former daughter is starting to become a problem… Shaw Lo puts his hand down and starts to walk down the hall.150
Shaw Lo151
Void you may go!152
Void fades into a black hole.153
Shaw Lo’s thoughts 154
I did not think I would have to call in silent strike so soon…Shaw Lo’s eyes lower 155
To be continued 156

Great Job!
Robin, you really did tremendous work, here! The storyline is really good, and is a perfect continuation in your Shadow Riders series. I think this will work really well for either an animated format, or a comic book series. Great detail in the fight sequences, and altogether, just a really good job! Super-d-duper!
