Shun ran up the stairs to his school building. He was running late for class. Today of all days, he had to be running late. Three major tests and new course material all in one day. This was not a very good start to this day. Then energy shifted. Shun stopped and turned to look behind him. What was that? Shun slowly looked around. He saw nothing out of the ordinary yet, something did not feel right. Buy he would worry about it later. Slowly he continued back into a run to his class. He had to hurry, he had tests to pass.

Ikki helped Hyoga with his bags into the guest room. Shiryu and Shunrei had already set up their room near Hyoga's. Seiya was staying with Saori in her mansion. Today he was going to see the children at the orphanage before heading back here. " How is Shunrei feeling?"

" Better. Thankfully we had the doctor to look at her." Shiryu had meant Shun. Shun had gotten Shunrei to allow him to check her since he was in training and all and was more than happy to try and help. " She just caught a bad cold. And thank you for allowing us to stay here instead of the hotel."

" Me too. I had no even found a place to stay yet when I ran into you yesterday." Hyoga stated.

" Don't worry about it. Shun wouldn't have it any other way. Besides he missed everyone. Ever since we all battled Hades and we all went our separate ways he has withdrawn some."

" Yet you seem to have mellowed out a hell of a lot. No offense Ikki." Hyoga said sitting on the couch.

Ikki laughed. That statement was so true. He had been a first rank bastard when Saori's grandfather had sent them all away to earn their cloths. For six years he had been trained to hate and never stop. His master had broken his honorable spirit he saw the love of his life die right in front of him. He then had killed his master and earned his Phoenix cloth and came back working for the evil Pope Aries. Not only turing on his friends he had went after Shun and blamed him for it all. When truth be told he had take Shun's place to Death Queen Island. And he wouldn't ever change his decision. So here he was now, doing odd jobs to earn money so Shun could solely focus on college.

" Why has Shun withdrawn? Are you sure it isn't just the workload of his classes? Honestly we couldn't be more proud of what he has chosen but it isn't something easy." Shiryu spoke with concern.

" I think some of that is it. But honestly, we all became a family and none of us had a great childhood. We all got close due to all our challenges, thus becoming close."

" You have a point, Ikki. Still, it really doesn't sound like Shun."

" Trust me Hyoga I know. But you guys all know Shun wears his heart on his sleeve. But he plays even closer to the vest than most."

Saori sat with with Miho as Seiya played soccer with the children. The laugher from the game was enough to make Saori smile as she saw Seiya playing with them. " The children seem to love Seiya so."

" They do. I am very happy he came by to see everyone. He always seems to be going off and doing something he would rather not tell me but as long as he is being safe then all is well." Miho said with a bit of pride in her voice. She was Seiya's childhood friend and cared for him deeply, and she was always going to be proud of him for all the things he has accomplished. As a man and of course as a Saint.

Thunder crashed against the sky. Black clouds rolled in quick. Seiya stood up and looked around. He felt it. Something dark. Something very familiar and he wasn't sure if he was making a mistake or not. " Miho! Get the kids inside now!"

Miho gathered the children and they go inside the building. Saori went to stand with Seiya. " You felt it as well?"

" Yes. I really don't like this feeling. We better get to the others."

" I agree but you better say good-bye first."

Seiya turned his head to see Miho looking out the window with deep confusion and concern. She had every right to be. Nothing good could come this feeling he had. The sky had stayed dark. Nothing. Giving Saoru a slight nod he went to the front door quickly.

Miho opened the door giving a sigh. " I know that look. Something is wrong again. Isn't it?"

" Yes. Please stay safe. I will be back for another visit soon."

Miho managed a small smile and gave a nod. " You better."

Seiya gave a smile back and went on with Saori. They went quickly to the others.

Shun gathered his things and went on his way home. The day had been long. He couldn't believe how quickly it had gone by. Three major test in one day will do that to someone. Shun pulled his bag over his shoulder as someone came into the room. This cosmos. I know this dark feeling. Shun looked over his shoulder and he saw a woman. Something was not right with her. The dark cosmos was coming from her. Yet it wasn't hers.

" Can I help you miss?" Shun asked poliety. Something about this woman was familiar and he knew this didn't feel right.

" Oh yes. I was looking for someone. He is very important to me. I believe you know him."

" Who are you looking for?"

The woman look a few steps forward to him. They were slow forceful steps.

" You took him away from me. All of you Bronze Saints did. Why would you take away my brother? What did he ever do too you to cause such an action?"

What was she talking about? And how did she know about the Bronze Saints? Shun took a few steps back toward the window. He had no idea what this woman was up too but he really didn't think it was a good idea to stick around. That cosmos surrounding her was getting even darker and even more intense. Opening the window Shun jumped out, landing on his feet. Looking up, he saw the woman looking down at him. With a evil smile across her face. Quickly he disregarded it and ran.

" Why are you allowing him to run?"

" I want them on edge. They know something is coming. But I have made it were they are unsure of what. Just makes it more fun."

Shun made it to the house opening the door and slamming it shut. The entire was home that cosmos had been following him. Growing. Raging in power. He knew that cosmos. Part of him knew that only one being had this power yet he knew it was impossible. The man was dead. Correction. The God was dead. Seiya had defeated him. Was he over reacting? May even over thinking. But hta woman- she was a threat. Just how much of was to be seen. Taking a deep breath he made his way to the living room and placing his things on the table. " Ikki. Hey you home bro?"

" Shun." Shunrei opened the door to the guest room. Coughing she looked at him with a smile. " The others went out. They said they wanted to check on something."

" Hey Shunrei you should get back in bed." He felt her head. She was burning up. " Okay you really need to get back to bed, you really should rest. Thank you for letting me know. I am sure they will be back soon."

Shun helped her back into bed, covering her with a blanket. Quietly he stepped out of the room making his way to the bathroom to look in the medicine cabinet. He opened it to see they were low on anything that would help Shunrei with her fever. " Well the others will be back soon. No harm in going to the drug store down the street." Gathering his keys again he went on his way, locking the door behind him.

Suddenly that dark cosmos was back. Shun jumped back from the door As and attack came at him. Landing on his feet he looked to see mean in black armor. But what surprised him most was the ones attacking had no faces. What the hell? Who were these guys? What did they want? He dare not ask them he knew he had to get away from the house before they attacked again. Shunrei was in the house and he was not risking her life. He turned and ran as fast as possible.

" Hey Hyoga." Seiya called out to his friends as he and Saori saw them on the other side of the road.

" Seiya. You feel it as well? We have been trying to figure it. It feels familiar."

" Yeah we felt it. The sky just went dark and it seems to be all over the city now. We were on our way back to you guys too see if you guys were safe."

" We are fine. Shiryu went back to the house to be with Shunrei. He had an uneasy feeling and didn;t want to leave her alone any more then he had too. We were on our way to Shun's college to see if he was still there."

" This is his normal route home and we have not seen him. I don't like this." Ikki said. He had this deep feeling Shun was in trouble. They had to find him.

Shun jumped as another attack came at him. He dodged it only to be blasted in the back with another. He crashed to the ground and gasped for air. Getting up he saw that woman again. She walked past the two in black armor and reached her hand out. Shun felt his body grow heavy, as if something was keeping him in place. " Who are you? What do you want with me?"

She smiled. Closing her eyes she took a slow breath. Her appearance then chance. Shun couldn't believe who he was looking at. No it was impossible. " Pandora."

" Yes, Andromeda. I believe you have something I need."

" I have nothing for you."

" Oh but you do. And I will be taking you back with me."

Shun hissed as she struggles against the invisible hold. " No."

Pandora laughed. She got down to eye level with Shun and looked him dead in the eyes. " Do you honestly think I am giving you a choice in the matter?"
