(Instrumental Intro)
[We see the book of the Four Gods surrounded in darkness, it is glowing with a golden aura. It slowly opens, pages flipping rapidly to the middle. When the pages stop, the golden aura forms a beam of light that shots straight up into the sky, pricing the endless darkness and revealing the four gods in their beast form: Suzaku, Seiryuu, Byakko, and Genbu, each in their own cardinal direction. They freeze and the title appears in front of them.]
Come to you across the divide
looking out a wrinkle in time
there is nothing less I would do
than stand up for truth.
[The scene changes to Chiharu's house. Chiharu is unwrapping a brown package and takes out the book of the Four Gods. Hitomi, Gigi, and Autumn are gathered around her as she opens it. A golden light shots from the book and engulfs the girls. When the light dreams again, the girls are gone, leaving only the open book. Camera pans to show a picture in the book. It is the four priestess of the beast gods.]
In the cold dark ways of this lonely place
I will warm you hold you
a gold shield glistens and your breath quickens
I stand close by over you
[Chiharu and Hitomi are holding each other in fear in the mist of a dark forest, screaming in fear as a monster approaches them. Suddenly two shadowy figures jump in front of them, preparing to fight the beast. The camera stays on the two cringing girls as the two mysterious warriors have a short fight with the monster. When it is all over, the sun comes out, lighting everything up. Chiharu and Hitomi look up and see Tasuki and Uruki grinning down at them. Uruki with fighting staff in hand, Tasuki with Tessen propped on his shoulder. Cherry blossoms fly threw the air and circle the small group. They then fly straight up and out of the forest, we follow them to a mountain top.]
(beat picks up)
Two hands held strong and sure
with the power of one
reaching out past the walls
that can hold you
[Gigi is standing in a clearing, looking lost and a bit panicked. The cherry blossoms swarm around her very thick. They are broken up by Inami as she jumps down from a tree, sword out. Inami sheaths the sword and bows down to Gigi as the sign of Genbu appears on her forehead.]
We are guardians and warriors
come from somewhere to mind
what creates you and shapes
the Alchemy of Love
[The Scene shifts to the Konan palace. In front of the palace there is a silhouette of a large group of people. Slowly, Uruki, Tasuki, and Inami's images appear in the place of their silhouettes. The rest, however, remain dark. The scene shifts again and we see Tatara by a lake holding the unconscious Autumn in his arms. He is trying to revive her by cupping water into her mouth. Close up of her face as her eyes flitter open. She smiles up at him. Scene pans out and we see Subaru and Tokaki is standing behind them.]
There is a chain of light out across the endless skies
and I see the energy that reflects me in your eyes
and keeps us both alive and keeps us both alive
[Dusk quickly turns to night as we watch them and the camera pans up to see a sky full of stars. One shots across the sky and we follow it. The camera gets very close to it. The camera shifts and there stands Mitsukake looking up at the stars. We have a close up of his eye as he is looking at the stars and we see the stars form the image of a very beautiful woman, his lost love. We than see Mitsukake's image form in the stars and he holds her.]
Evening and the shadows will come
to destroy what we have done
but always will the power of love
shine a light bright as the sun
[A little girl of around six or seven, with whitish-blue hair up in pigtails, stands crying in the snow as buildings burn all around her. Her tears fall to the ground. Camera fallows one of the tears on its way to the ground. As it hits the snow, we see a beautiful flower grow and blossom. A whitish gold light shines from the depths of the flower until it has engulfed the whole scene. When the light fades, Tamahome appears fighting Hatsui as Hitomi looks on in horror in the background.]
When the cold dark waves on the shores break
I'm around you found you
A gold sword fires and night expires
a warm light surrounding you
[The scene shifts and we see a sea shore where a storm is starting in the distance. There is a silhouette of a woman standing on the shore. Camera pans closer to her and we see it is Soi, standing behind her is Nakago. Tomo than appears behind them, his small illocution shell in hand, open and glowing gold inside. There is a close up of it and we see Umiyame in the mist of a battle, throwing her fans at her enemies. The camera follows one of the fans.]
Two hands held strong and sure
with the power of one
reaching out past the walls
that can hold you
[The fan turn into a small, silver bird as the scene shifts and it lands on Chiriko's outstretched hand, eating a few bread crumbs there. The camera pans to the side of Chiriko to show Chichiri fishing. It then goes down and we see the water. It begins to ripple until nothing on the screen is clear. When the water clears again, we see Toroki standing on a bridge looking down at the water reflected there. He seems deep in thought. A rose falls from the bush growing on the bridge and hits the water, again making the scene blur.]
We are guardians, warriors
come from somewhere to mind
what creates you and shapes
the Alchemy of Love
[The scene shifts back to the image of the palace with the silhouette of a large group of people. Tatara, Subaru, Tokaki, Mitsukake, Tamahome, Hatsui, Soi, Nakago, Tomo, Umiyame, Chiriko, Chichiri, and Toroki all appear in their Silhouettes' places. The scene shifts to Kokie taking care of Amefuri's wound at her home. He is looking at her a bit shocked as she had a kind expression on her face, not noticing him looking at her. It is snowing outside and the camera slowly closes in on the window, than we are outside in the snow.]
There is a chain of light out across the endless skies
and I see the energy that reflects me in your eyes
and keeps us both alive and keeps us both alive
[Suddenly a snowball comes flying across the scene. We follow it and see it hit Nuriko. She turns and we see Amiboshi and Suboshi laughing as one slaps the other on the back. Suddenly, they are hit by a gigantic snowball. Camera shifts back to Nuriko as she brushes snow off 'her' hands. Hotohori is laughing behind her. She turns and sees him. Nuriko takes out a fan and hides her slight blush as she bats her eyes at him flirtatiously.]
When the cold dark waves on the shores break
I'm around you found you
A gold shield glistens and your breath quickens
I stand close by over you
[The scene fallows the snow as the wind blows it across the screen. It becomes so thick that nothing back be seen threw it. When it dies down, we see Hikitsu and Tomite standing in their cave. A great light is reflected in the ice behind them. When the light disappears again, we see Namame in this knight armor practicing his sword play in a sunny field. The light is playing off of his armor.]
Two hands held strong and sure
with the power of one
reaching out past the walls
that can hold you
[The wind rustles the leaves on the trees behind him. Camera pans to trees were we see Karasuki sitting, smiling up at the sky. As the camera follows her gaze to the sky, we see Ashitare jump into the sky. We follow him as he lands, ready to fight an unseen enemy. Miboshi stands (floats) at the ready just behind him.]
We are guardians, warriors
come from somewhere to mind
what creates you and shapes
the Alchemy of Love
[The scene shifts back to the image of the palace with the silhouette of a large group of people. Slowly, Kokie, Amefuri, Nuriko, Amiboshi, Suboshi, Hotohori, Hikitsu, Tomite, Namame, Karasuki, Ashitare, and Miboshi fill in their silhouettes. The scene slowly changes to that of the night sky. The stars shine brightly.]
Two hands held strong and sure
with the power of one
reaching out past the walls
that can hold you
[The faces of all of the warriors appear in the sky at this point. Then the four priestesses fade in than out. The very last picture is of all of the warriors' and priestesses' faces in the sky. This all happens rather quickly.]
We are guardians, warriors
come from somewhere to mind
what creates you and shapes
the Alchemy of Love
[Each face glows with its own color aura, until the aura is the only things scene of them. The colorful lights shot down to Earth, mingling with one another. They land in front of the palace and the warriors appear in the places where their silhouettes use to be. The faces of the four priestesses form slowly at the four corners of the screen. They are all faces off screen.]
