Yay! Thank you to all those who've reviewed my story! I really appreciate
it! I forgot to do this at the end of the last chapter but in Italian,
Stella means star for anyone who cares! I'm do the best that I can to keep
updating and keeping my mind submerged in thoughts for new chapters of old
stories.

Mia groaned and opened her eyes. It took her a few moments to realize that she was back in her bed. She quickly sat up only to realize she was wearing her raincoat and normal clothes again, "Was it just a dream?" She asked herself, rubbing her forehead. When she placed her hand back down, she felt something. Looking at her hand, she found the crystal necklace in her palm.
"I most certainly hope not." A voice snorted.
Mia jumped as Stella came out of the shadows, "How was your nap?"
She laughed, "That's the second time I've been asked that today. How long have I been out for?"
Stella jumped onto the bed and sat in front of Mia, "A couple hours or so."
"I won't even ask how we got here." She stood up and took off her raincoat, along with her boots, "So how long have you been living with Tila?"
"My entire life." She replied and watched as Mia brushed out her wet and tangled hair.
There was silence for a while, neither seeing anything to say. Shortly, Mia spoke, staring out the window, "The rain stopped."
"Yes, it stopped a while ago." Stella replied, "A good sign if you asked me."
Mia nodded, "Well, then." She smiled brightly, "Let's go save some Ronin butt!" She cheered.
"My thoughts exactly." The lioness agreed.
Mia left her room with Stella on her heels and was about to go downstairs, when she passed Ryo's room. Stopping, she softly turned the knob and opened the door. Inside, White Blaze was sleeping next to the bed when the lights hit his eyes. He lifted his head to see Mia and Stella. He stood and approached Stella while Mia approached Ryo.
She knelt next to Ryo and took his hand, "Ryo, don't worry. I'll get the guys back and then we can celebrate." He remained unmoving. Her eyes watered up, "I-I'm gonna go save them for you, s-so now you don't have to protect me anymore." Tears were now streaming out of her eyes, "Oh Ryo, I'm scared! What if I can't do it? What if..what if I loose?"
"You won't loose, Mia." A deep, masculine voice soothed for next to her.
She spun to her side to see White Blaze sitting there with a smile, "White Blaze?"
"Your friend, Stella, gave me the gift of gab." He joked softly.
"He's right, you know." Stella added. Mia turned to er other side to find Stella sitting there, "You can't loose, you are the most powerful person there is."
Mia wiped her tears away, "Stella, White Blaze." She wrapped one arm around each of their necks and hugged them close, "Thank you."
When she let go, White Blaze nudged her, "Now get going, I'll stay here and watch Ryo."
Mia stood and Stella nudged her out the door, "Thank you White Blaze, take good care of him." With that, the two disappeared down the hall.
They stopped at the door downstairs, "Before we go anywhere, you should transform." Stella reminded.
"Right..Orpheus Nebula Power!"
*~*~*~*~*
Sailor Orpheus and Stella were standing atop the hill that Mia was last stopped at. In front of them towered the Dark Gate, "Are you ready?" Stella asked.
"As I'll ever be." Orpheus nodded and studied the gate, "Um, how are we supposed to get in?"
"Well..I'm not sure." Stella laughed weakly.
Orpheus sweatdropped. Suddenly, her crystal began glowing and the gate's doors opened, "Well, that addresses that problem." She shrugged and the two ran in. As soon as they got with five feet of the gate, they were swarmed with Dynasty soldiers. Orpheus crouched in a fighting stance but tensed, "Stella, what do I do? I can't fight them all!"
Stella leapt into the air and flipped (A.N: Like Luna does). A small wand appeared within the air and fell into Orpheus's hands. She studied it with fascination. It was blue and gold with small symbols all over. The end was a golden disc that was rounded, "What do I do with this?" She asked.
"Well, use it. You'll know what to do." Stella crouched low, preparing for a fight.
Orpheus closed her eyes and concentrated. She began to feel words coming to her, "Orpheus ribbon attack!!" She cried out. A long stream of white energy appeared from the end of the wand, loose like a whip. She spun it around and slashed a small group of Dynasty soldiers. The moment they were cut, they disintegrated into thin air. Orpheus twisted and turned with grace, and soon the entire fleet was gone.
She sighed and the ribbon disappeared. Stella looked at her with approval, "I'm impressed, it usually takes a scout much longer to adapt to her powers."
"Well then, we should get moving. If that was the welcoming committee, I really don't want to see what the rest of the place is like." Orpheus commented and the two set off.
The battle to get to the center of the Dynasty was long and hard. It took the combined efforts of Sailor Orpheus and Stella to defeat them all, but their hard work paid off. The duo found themselves standing infront of the Dynasty tower. The only one for miles connected to a complicated series of mazes, which they had just battled through.
"Come on." Orpheus said as she pushed the doors open. They found themselves standing in a large, empty room supported by pillars all around the edge. At the end was a large staircase leading into shadows.
The two were surprised when they were met by clapping, "Well done, well done. I must say I am impressed." A dark, male voice laughed.
"Who are you?!" Orpheus demanded.
At the top of the stairs appeared a man dressed in a dark suit of armor covered by a black cloak with wild red hair and ice blue eyes, "I am Crometheus, the last standing ruler of the Dynasty!"
"Give me back the Ronins and Ryo's power!!" She demanded.
Crometheus laughed again, "All in due time my dear, but you'll have to battle for what's left of them!"
"What have you done to them?!" She cried.
"That's for me to know and you to find out, Sailor Orpheus." He sneered.
