THE LEGENDARY SAILOR PHAETHON


Chapter: 3


The battle stopped. Lucrezia turned and looked at me. "Fine", she said, "We'll give you another chance, so prepare for it. We'll meet again, in this same place, Sunday, 8:00pm, next week. All of you have to come. It will be our final battle". There was a swift silence, then she looked at me and said, "See you then, Trinity". She smiled at me mysteriously, and they all vanished. I turned to look at the girls, they weren't in their transformed form anymore. They smiled at me weakly. They really were in a bad shape.


On Monday, as soon as I got home from school, I heard the phone ringing. I picked it up, it was Lita, calling from Ray's house. "Hey Trin!", she said, "Listen, me and the other girls didn't go to school today. We just were too tired, but never mind that, we're ok now. Sore a bit, but no serious injuries. We all need to talk about next Sunday, why don't you come over to Ray's right now?". "No problem, be right there", I replied and hung up.


"Wow, that was fast!", said Ray when I got there. "Well, any plans yet?", I asked. "Nope, do you have any ideas?". "I think we should just exercise and practice a lot this whole week, and on Sunday rest, till the time comes". Well, what else could we do?! "I suppose you're right...", said Lita. "That's the best we can do...". "Then it's settled!", said Amy, "We skip school this whole week, and go to the gym or something instead". "I agree", said Ray, and so did Mina. Serena was stuffing herself with cookies again. I doubted she even knew what the whole conversation was about. We all sighed.


Sunday finally came. The whole week we were practicing like crazy in the gym, going to the all goes martial arts classes, and also other lessons out of which we got out all sweaty and exhausted. We felt much stronger now. Amara and Michelle, who on Tuesday I found out were Sailors Uranus and Neptune, also decided to help us, they were in Ray's house as well. We just hoped it was enough. We had 2 more hours, but we wern't training. That would only tire us. We all sat quitely, thinking. I remembered that strange feeling I had last Sunday. That i'll have to battle Lucrezia. If that will happen, it will happen today. But will it? I wished I knew. And that strange feeling on my forehead, and the surge of power... Did they mean anything? Oh, i'm thinking too much, I thought. I should relax a bit. Oh gee, easy to say, relax. When you know you might die in a couple of hours. Only Amara seemed relaxed, unconcerned. Well, and so did Michelle, kind of. "You look so relaxed!", Ray told me, "How could you keep so calm?!". Do I really look that calm as well? I asked myself. "I don't know", I simply replied, "I don't know...". Were Amara and Michelle hiding their feelings as well? Anyway, it was time. We all got up and went outside. Will we win? Will we survive? Will I survive? So many questions... I guess i'll just have to wait to find out.


The Eclipse members were already there. "You're late...", said Amuro. No one replied. "Well then,", he grinned an evil grin, "shall we begin?". The scouts were all transformed, and so the grand battle began. Uranus fought Zechs, Neptun fought Char, Mercury fought Jeeva, Venus fought Merlina, Moon fought Relena, and both Mars and Jupiter fought Amuro. He was definately the most powerful 1. Lucrezia landed in front of me. "You're with them, and as much as i'll hate it, i'll have to kill you, Trinity...", she said sadly, and I knew the saddness was not fake. "I understand if you want to kill me,", I said, "I might resist a bit though.". We both smiled sadly. Will I really die? Is this really the end? No, I mustn't lose hope! I still have a chance! I felt i'll have to battle Lucrezia, not just be killed by her. My forehead felt strange again, and again I got the surge of power, and I had another strange feeling yet. That i'm the last hope...






Note: So... What do you think will happen to Trinity? Will she really die? Hm, well anyway, the next chapter will be up soon, so... Review!
