" Get away from him!"

" Kiki no!" Shun yelled as Kiki came to his aid, using his telekinesis as an attack on Pandora.

Pandora didn't move as a specter came and blocked the attack. Her focus was purley one Shun. She never even gave Kiki a second glance. The specter let out his own attack and sent Kiki flying toward a tree. Only he never hit the tree. Kiki looked up. " Shiryu!"

" Are you alright Kiki?"

" Yeah but Shun really needs help."

Shiryu moved his head in the direction of the cosmos he was feeling. This had to be a mistake. This cosmos was destroyed seven years ago. After losing his sight again against Poseidon general he had adapted to using his other senses very well. He could tell there were at least three enemies. The one in the middle was focused on Shun but on him as well. And there was one on either side of her. But what was still bothering hi was that cosmos. It was as if the woman was using someone else's power. And if it was who he believed it was then they had a huge problem. " Release him, Pandora. We have no need to fight you. Hades is long gone."

She laughed. " Is that what you truly think?"

" Shiryu get out of here now." Shun said, still struggling to move.

A sudden chill crossed over the area. The specters legs were instantly frozen. They struggled to move only to be blasted with a series of powerful punches. As they landed on the ground they vaporized into black dust. Pandora looked over her shoulder and saw Seiya and Hyoga. They were in there armor. With their goddess Athena behind them. Clearly she was outnumbered. Looking back at Shun she then vanished.

Shun felt his balance return, as he got to his feet Ikki ran up to him grabbing his brothers' shoulders. " Are you alright? Are you hurt?"

" I'm fine. Really, just very unnerved."

Ikki gave a small sigh of relief.

They all returned to the house with a very bad feeling. Shiryu went straight to Shunrei who was resting. Her fever seemed to go down on its own. Very thankful for that he went back to rejoin the others. He was about to bump into Saori as he turned the corner, who was carrying a tray of tea for everyone. " Allow me, Lady Saori."

" Thank you Shiryu, but I have this you all need to sit and relax. I like to help in these small ways." She smiled at him as he moved aside like a gentleman.

Shun stared out at the window while everyone gathered in the living room. Saori placed the tea tray down and sat down with Seiya and Hyoga. No one said anything for several minutes. " Is this really happening? We all felt the powerful cosmos." Seiya spoke breaking the silence.

Kiki just sat on the floor not knowing what to say to his friends.

" Yes we all felt it. And that was Pandora, I thought she had died in the tunnel when she had aided me in making it to the Elysian fields. Thanatos had killed her from even that far away." Ikki came from the back rejoining them. His knuckles were wrapped in bandages. Shun knew he was outside punching a tree. He always did that when he was training or frustrated.

" There was no mistaking that cosmos, it was Hades. He somehow has returned, and he wants my body back. Other wise I do not think I would have been a target."

They all agreed. Shun had been chosen to be his vessel once before and the fact he was the actual reincarnation of Hades himself. It didn't matter that he was a saint of Athena he had been used as the vessel for the God of the Underworld once before. He had no desire to be used like that again. Shun remembered how he had allowed Hades to possess him to aid in holding him back so Ikki or his fellow comrades could have a chance to attack. That did not work out well, but thanks to Saori, Hades had been forced out of his body and forced to return to his real one in which had been vanquished by Seiya.

All this seemed so surreal. This shouldn't be happening. They had defeated Hades and stopped the Great Eclipse and saved everyone. Literally everyone. Which come to think of it. Shun looked out the window and saw the clouds had not cleared. The sky was still dark. As if there was no sun.

" Guys I think we have another problem other than protecting me."

" What could possibly be more important?" Ikki said.

Shun pulled the curtain away and pointed outside. " Stopping this blackout of the sun. This all started today when I was attacked. It has to be Hades and Pandora's doing." They didn't have to say anything for them to agree. They all had came up with the same conclusion. But still nothing was going to stop them from protecting Shun.

Hades stood in his main chambers, overlooking the underworld. Everything was in order again. In his absence the entire underworld had gone crazy but now things were back in its proper place. Demons and specters alike were now back to their duties that they were to uphold.

" Brother." Pandora said as she approached him. " I am sorry for failing you. It shall not happen again."

" You have not failed me, sister. I knew they would protect him at any cost. But I think maybe I should go and collect him myself."

" No! You must not! You are to valuable and a this moment far to vulnerable. I can not allow you to go out there and face those Bronze Saints alone."

Hades turned to face her. " You will not allow me? Please do not forget your place sister."

" I am sorry. But I do not want any harm to befall you."

Hades smiled. " Do no worry. That is why I have brought back as a few others to aid us." Turning his head slightly, a door opened then as if on cue. Pandora felt her heart skip a beep as she saw the two she never thought she would see. Thanatos and Hypnos. The one that held the title of General. They walked forward and knelt down before Hades.

" Thank you Lord Hades for this chance for redemption. We will not fail you this time." Hypnos spoke first.

" Thank you, Lord Hades. I will not fail again to those Saints." Thanatos said each word came out so coldly. He felt humiliated and defeated. Seiya was the one he really wanted to crush. He had defeated him with sheer blind luck. He would not ever allow that to happen again. He then was flung up against the ceiling and then slammed even harder to the ground. Groaning in pain he got up on his knees as he felt the pressure leave his body.

" Thanatos, even as my General you took my dear older sisters life knowing I would never forgive such an act. You will answer to her and do as she commands, as she is my second in command from here on out." Hades looked him dead in the eyes. No gleam of joy. No happiness. Pure anger. Hate. Pure demand. " Are we clear on your orders?"

Thanatos hissed in pain and groaned with annoyance. He remembered that day as if it was yesterday. He had killed Pandora for betraying Lord Hades for helping the Bronze saint Phoenix to the Elysian fields to kill their lord. He thought he was doing right by punishing her for her betrayal. Obviously not. " Yes my lord."

" Good. For now you both need to regain your strength. You shall be summoned for when you are need."

" Yes Lord Hades." Both generals spoke, then leaving at once.

" You as well, Pandora. Go and recover from using the power I loaned to you. You will need to rest before you use any more."

" Yes dear brother."

Hades now alone walked in the chamber as he remembered how everything went as he had held the Andromeda saints body in his control. Just out of reach when Athena had destroyed that control. Not this time. This time when he took control he was going to hold on with everything he had. He was going to take over the saints body for his own. Which in turn meant he had to kill Andromeda's very soul.

And he had no problem doing that.
