Chapter 5 - Worries of Time

~~BGM Choice: Theme from Labyrinth~~
Sean looked as four of Jupiter's moons were in the sky, 2 more to rise within the hour.
"You'll need to tell her sooner or later Sean," Sir Ashton spoke to him from the side. They stood in an alcove and balcony looking out over Capital City, Home of Castle Zeus and the Jupiter Royal Family, the Family Kino.
"I know, Moon Samurai... I'm just very worried... I would as soon give up my powers to stay here then go home."
"Sean, you know Ying would never allow you to give up your obligations of Teen Samurai of the 1990's. He picked you for a reason, and you must play it out, as I do while I am here."
"Sir Ashton, I love her! How can I walk away from that?" Sean looked like he was near tears.
"I know you do Sean, but you also need to think of things here. Queen Beryl is sure to strike the Moon Kingdom soon. Without your powers how would you protect her? It would be utterly impossible."
Sean sighs, deep in thought. "Sadly you are correct, and she knows I am from another time... but what if she does not live in my time?"
Sir Ashton places a hand on Sean's green coated shoulder. "Queen Serenity has planed that in event of danger, she is sending the entire Royal Court of Princess and Princesses to the Future, so by your age they'll be a slight bit older but there none the less."
"So if Beryl attacks the Moon..." Sean looks up.
"Then Lita, Serena, Darien, and the rest will be sent to your time to grow up again, and fate will most likely bring you together."
Sean sighs. "Well, now that that is settled, tell me of the bonding ceremony."
Sir Ashton sits Sean down then sits himself. "It's a fairly simple procedure. In fact it will be like added insurance of your and Lita linking up. What happens is that you both sit down at a table. On the table is a bowl of water that has been purified and blessed by the High Priestess. Since this is a royal bonding the Queen blesses it as well. You both then place your hands in the water, and your love becomes physical energy. For you and Lita, you are like Lightning. So lightning will channel between the two of you. It will sting slightly, as electricity is being exchanged between you."
Sean chuckles. Sir Ashton looks up "What's so funny?"
Sean smiles. "In a movie on earth, a similar scene takes place making the 'bonded' like brothers. And they would sooner or later seek each other out. It was like one was a north magnet, the other a south magnet."
Sir Ashton nods. "Exactly like that. The hour is approaching, so get ready."
Sean nods, and they each go off their own way.
Author's Note: The scene I mention was in Highlander 2: The Quickening© when Connor and Ramirez experience the Quickening. I suggest you take a chance to view the film so you will be able to picture the events of that will take place in Chapter 6.
