Watching from afar
Beryl settled back on her throne. All about her were images of the battles that were being fought around her kingdom. Narrowing her eyes, she watched as three of her four generals kept taking chances. 'Constantly putting themselves in danger. They know I need them, why are they doing that? They can not defy me.' Her fingers flexed over her crystal ball and a youma dove under the blade that was about to strike Nephrite.
She hated wasting her creations, especially when a little caution would have rendered the sacrifice unnecessary. 'It once was a fairy of fire. As the one blessed with the Holy Flame, he should respect that, and not bring them to their deaths.' Her eyes flickered from one image to the next. It had surprised her at first. Her youma had chosen their own leaders. The ones that were created from the Fairies of Air followed Kunzite the best, the Fire clan followed Nephrite the best, Water fairies followed Zoisite, and the Earth fairies followed any of them. 'It must relate to what they were sworn to when they became Endymion's guards. I wonder Jadeite was sworn to? Nothing but the Earth fairy youmas look to him.'
When she looked at Kunzite in battle, the coldness on his face unsettled her slightly. 'Too many casualties. Too many casualties on both sides, the resistance and my youma.' Watching another Wind Youma fall crashing to the ground, she knew she would have to a talk to with him when he came home.
