Trista pov: Today has been peaceful but I fear that peace will shatter very soon since I suddenly got bad feeling.
"Beryl must be up to something." I thought in worry, today was a big day for the Zenith lion guard since they're getting their weapons today. "I'm so proud." Princess Aelita whispered.
"As are we." Nephrite said to her, we all smiled as Lucia brought out the weapons. "Drake, you get the keyblade. It will help you control you magic." I told him, he smiled back.
"Ziwa, you get these gauntlets which can also become a shield." Mina told him, he smiled. "Jiwe, you get these daggers be careful with them." Michelle warned him, he nodded.
"Radi, your weapon is a spear but it's very special so don't underestimate it." Princess Aelita told her. "Understood." Radi replied, she held her spear close to her so she didn't drop it.
"Finally, Upepo. You weapon is a wand that can extend into a staff for enclosed combat." Hotaru told him. "Thank you so much." The Zenith guard told us, we smiled at them.
Once the five of them got their weapons they went to practice with them. "Princess, we're going to scout around and keep an eye out for shadow monsters." I told her.
"Okay but be careful." Princess Aelita told us. "We'll be fine." Mina replied, we left Pride Rock and started scouting out for Beryl's shadow monsters that might be in the Pride Lands.
"I've got bad feeling about this." Michelle told us, we all had the same bad feeling that something's going to happen. "We have to get back to Pride Rock!" Hotaru shouted, we nodded.
We all ran back to Pride Rock since we knew that Hotaru must've had a vision about the others being attacked. "We must hurry!" I shouted, we got back to Pride Rock just in time.
Third Person pov: When the Sailor Warriors got back to Pride Rock two shadow monsters popped up. "LIGHT BLASTER!" Aelita shouted out, she used her sword to attack the shadows.
"BURNING FIRE FLAME!" Drake shouted, the cousins were really ticked off because the shadow monsters had attacked and hurt Kanu and Kae. "You'll pay for hurting them!" Aelita hissed out.
Everyone was fighting the monsters but they were't getting anywhere in the fight and just as the two monsters nearly hit Aelita and Drake the four Sailor Warriors took the hit.
"VENUS, NEPTUNE, SATURN, PLUTO! NOOOOOOO!" Aelita cried out, the blast was so powerful that it destroyed monsters and Sailor Warriors but their images appeared in front of everyone.
"Why? Why'd you do it?" Lucia asked them. "We did it to protect our princess and friends." Trista replied. "But what's going to happen now?" Drake asked her, the four girls nodded to each other.
"We're going to give our powers to Kanu and his friends." Mina answered, she gave her powers to Bina. "I'll use my new powers to protect everyone." Bina told Mina. "I know you will." Mina replied.
"Nuru, step forward." Hotaru told her, she gave Nuru her powers. "I'll use them wisely." Nuru responded. "Good." Hotaru replied, Batini walked up to Michelle and smiled sadly at her.
"Use them to fight a good fight." Michelle told Batini. "I promise." Batini replied to her, Faraji walked over to Trista. "I trust you'll use these powers to help everyone?" Trista asked Faraji.
"I will help everyone no matter what." Faraji responded. "Kanu, for you and Kae. We give you the powers of the sun and stars." Kunzite told them. "Thank you." Kanu and Kae replied to him.
The symbols for the planets appeared on the left shoulders of the Pride Land lion guard and the symbol for the sun appeared on Kanu's left shoulder while the symbol for the stars did on Kae's left shoulder.
"We must be going now." Zoisite told everyone, the four Sailor Warriors and the Four Kings of heaven then vanished leaving the two Lion Guards sad and crying but Aelita was crying the hardest.
"IT"S NOT FAIR!" Aelita shouted out, Drake hugged her then started to whisper words of comfort into her ear since he knew how close Aelita was with the Sailor Warriors and Kings of heaven.
Lucia then thought of a way to help comfort Aleita so she used her magic to bring out the instruments she needed and started to sing.
[Play River Lullaby by Amy Grant]
[Lucia]
Hush now, my baby, be still love, don't cry
Sleep like you're rocked by the stream
Sleep and remember, my lullaby
And I'll be with you when you dream
Drift on a river that flows through my arms
Drift as I'm singing to you
I see you smiling so peaceful and calm
And holding you, I'm smiling, too
Here in my arms
Safe from all harm
Holding you
I'm smiling, too
(Music)
Hush now, my baby, be still love, don't cry
Sleep like you're rocked by the stream
Sleep and remember this river lullaby
And I'll be with you when you dream
Here in my arms
Safe from all harm
Holding you
I'm smiling, too
Sleep and remember this river lullaby
And I'll be with you when you dream
Sleep and remember this river lullaby
And I'll be with you when you dream
I'll be with you when you dream!
When Lucia done singing everyone saw that Aelita had fallen asleep. "Let's let her rest." Lucia told everyone, they all nodded then went home to get some rest and plan for a proper burial for their friends and mentors.
Batini pov: When I got home Dad asked me about what happened today and I told him everything. "I see. I know it's part of the circle of life but even they didn't deserve this." Dad told me with sigh.
"We're all worried about Aelita. Do you think she'll be okay?" I asked Dad, he sighed before answering. "Aelita will need all of you to help her through the pain but she'll be okay." Dad replied, I nodded in agreement.
I hope we can help Aelita through the pain since she was the closest to our friends and mentors. "Everything will be alright but for now we must stop Beryl since she was behind this." I thought in anger.
We will stop Beryl and save Zenith, we won't let our friends sacrifice be in vain all of us will give it our all in stopping that evil witch and restoring Aelita's family to the thrown of Zenith, this I swear on my honor.
