Chapter 1:

Return

(Sara's POV)

6 Years Later…

I was in the ground feeling the nice breeze that was touching me. It has been 6 years sends that day. Then my hair was flying in front of my face. I took it and see it, my brown hair was no longer and it have turn light blue. My mask was the only thing that prevent me from seeing my face, because my mask wasn't like the other mask from the rest of the women. Mine was a charm mask, the only one that can't be taken away by anyone or the owner of it. The only way to take it off is if I increase my cosmos to a higher level that the mask will not take and it will break into pieces. But I couldn't do it alone. I need to find someone or something that will make me increase my cosmos as high to break it, but there was a chance that I could die in the process. Because I need to control it, and if I reach that amount of cosmos I could lose control of it and at the end it would kill me. I have been alone for so long, much of the people in here hate me, but others they consider me a good person. 5 years ago, I lost my voice in an accident because some of my classmates want to hurt the people of the village that was close to the camp. I try to safe as much of the people and in one of them a little girl was trap in a house. I enter and got her out, but… then the house explode and we fall to the sea. The waves were too strong for us and I manage to get her out in time before she could drown. At the end I was the one in danger and someone got me out of there, but I lost conscious and the next day I couldn't talk anymore, my voice was gone. My teacher was a good man, but some of them hate him because he always consider the weak ones first than the strong ones. Unfortunately my master die 3 years ago, there was an attack from the sanctuary and we fight to protect our camp, many lives die in the battle and he was one of them. The last thing he told me was…

- Never give up. Sooner or later you will find a way to get rib of that mask and show your truth face. Sara… shine like a star… like a… goddess itself…

Those words eco in my mind for so long and I will show everyone that they will regret to ever face me in the first place. Then some people came toward me, they were my best friends, but I didn't see them too often. They were Lizbeth and Lizeth, their names were like if they were twins, but they weren't. Lizbeth have black hair, gray eyes and light tan skin. Lizeth have blond hair, red eyes and fair skin. They were classmates from other teachers and they were against me to get the Bronze armor of Altar. Sends I came here some women were trying to get that armor, but I defeat them with a single blow. Nobody could believe that a little girl that have just a few days in the camp have this kind of power. I even defeat Lizbeth and Lizeth, they were surprise that I did that in my first days in the camp. After the accident they knew that I was brave and kind because nobody would have save the people that were close to the camp. They even give me a box were I could write words seems I can't talk at all.

- Hi, Eve.- say Lizbeth.

- How are you doing?- ask Lizeth.

Oh, I almost forgot, I change my name like grandfather told me because it was truth that some people were looking for me, because what everyone told me after the attack. The camp have never been attack from a long time ago, and that were decades to be exact. Someone knew that I was in here, I was glad that before I enter the camp that my own hair change it's color by itself. I took off the box and start to write.

- Hi, I'm find.

- That's good. - say Lizeth.

- Are you ready for tomorrow?- ask Lizbeth.

- Of course. I have been waiting for this for so long.

- If you win tomorrow, you will finally return to your home.- say Lizeth and that was something that I have wish for so long. I stock up and we walk toward the camp, we pass many candidates to become Saints, but then Lizbeth brought something up.

- Hey, Sara. Have you ever thought that maybe you could or you want to be with someone?- ask Lizbeth which make me stop suddenly and look at her.

- What are you talking about?

- I'm just saying that sends so many boys are seeing you and are drooling for you.- say Lizbeth. That was the last thing I expect from her.

- As if someone will look at her in the first place.- say someone from behind us and I only got angry about that because I already knew who it was.

- Dala.- say Lizbeth and Lizeth.

- What are you doing here?- ask Lizeth.

- Actually, I should be the one to ask you that.- say Dala walking toward us. She was a show up and she only want the Bronze armor of Altar because she thinks that she's better than any women and more beautiful. Even if she hasn't show her face in the first place. I only turn around and keep walking while Lizbeth and Lizeth were only eyeing her and keep walking with me. - Like always your always running away from the problems. Only went you prefer that, you always jump. That's the reason why you lost your voice in the first place.- with that make me angry and before I knew it I attack her and send her flying many miles away. Everyone was shock at how strong I send her and worse of that I show them my powers before time. I only turn around and keep walking ignoring everyone even Lizbeth and Lizeth. By the time I reach my home I prepare myself for tomorrow and I start to meditate and using every move I learn from my master.

The Next Day…

Finally the time have come and I was going to face my final opponent and to get back to Japan. By the time I reach the arena, everyone was already there and I walk to the middle of there. Once I was there to my surprise my final opponent was Dala.

- I will make you pay for yesterday.- say Dala. The high priest then appear.

- You have each fought with nine warriors and won every time. Out of one thousand twenty four warriors you were the only two that keep winning. And know it's time that you fought each other. The winner will receive the sacred armor of Altar and become a Saint of Athena.- say the high priest.

"It's all or nothing."

Then before I knew I felt her coming closer to me and I dodge her attack before she could hit me.

- Impressive. I would have never thought that you have good seen of danger without the cosmos. But that will change everything.- say Dala trying to hit me again. I dodge her attacks very easily which was strange because I could see them very slowly. Before I knew it I just jump to the other side and face her. She was much more arrogant than ever to defeat me than ever. She use her cosmos against me, but the her and everyone's surprise I stop her attack with one hand like it was nothing to me. Then I feel a strong aura coming inside of me wanting to be let go. Then I let it spread through all of my body and make it increase even more. Dala took a step back because she couldn't believe that my cosmos was much more greater than she could possibly believe. This was for my teacher… I start to make the shape of the constellation of Ara and before she could move I attack her with my left hand. She scream and was send back toward were the people was and they run away before she could hit there. Everyone was more shock than ever because my power was still burning inside of me and I only took her with one blow from my fist. Then I relax and face the high priest who seem more surprise than shock.

- Athena has recognize Sara as one of her Saints. I now award you the sacred armor.- say the high priest. I only walk toward the box and put it on my back. - I most warn you, Sara. Ever sends ancient times the Saints have protect Athena and fought for justice. The armor should only be wore for what is right and never for personal game.- I only nod swearing that I will do that. I walk away from there with the sacred armor and wait for tomorrow, but something tell me that I should leave now. And so, I listen to my instincts. I walk to my home and I check on myself, I was still wearing the same outfit sends I start training in here. I have black tights and the one from the left was showing a little part of my leg. And a red leotard that was covering all of my body. Then I was done with that close and I check on the human clothes that I have in a suitcase, I have bought that in case I left these place and now… I was leaving. I put on a dark-blue jeans and a red blouse with tinny strains. I took one step out and walk toward the end of the camp I was going down the hill and before I could finally leave the camp, I took one last look at the mountain, or should I say Mount Olympus. And I say thank you to the gods and to my teacher hoping that were ever he is, his at peace at least. By the time I reach the village I took a taxi and take me to the city, from there I would take an airplane and return to Japan.

Next Day…

I woke up in my seat and see that it was already morning the airplane was still flying, but then I hear the voice of a woman telling the passengers that we will land soon. Once I was out of the plane I walk were my suitcase was and also my armor. I took it and went outside, I call a taxi to take me to the Kido Mansion which he accept. By the time I reach my old home… I was a little nervous because I didn't know what will happen in there. I call the door and I was surprise to see Tatsumi there, the old man was not dead yet.

- Yes, can I help you?- he ask me. I took my little box and write the words.

- Yes, I would like to talk with Mitsumasa Kido.

- I'm so sorry miss. But as you can see, Mitsumasa Kido die 5 years ago.- say Tatsumi which make me be shock, my grandfather was dead?

- Ether way, I would like to see Saori Kido.

- Like you wish.- say Tatsumi letting me enter and to wait for her. Then I see her. She was dress in an elegant white dress with pink on the end of it. Her purple hair have grown so much sends the last time, actually it was the same size of mine and we have the same cut of hair. I notice that she was looking at me up and down.

- Hello, name is Saori Kido. I see that you want to talk to me, but the question is… who want's to talk to me?- she answer. So, the plan was working, she didn't recognize me. Which was a good thing, I just need to play this game until the time is right.

- My name is Eve. Altar Eve.
