*************************

Orpheus spun around and dodged another attack from Crometheus. She turned and ran forward, punching him directly in the gut before backing off. She readied her wand, "Orpheus ribbon attack!" The whip wrapped around the man, trapping his arms to his sides, "Take this!!" She pulled the whip and Crometheus was pulled into a pillar. It crumbled to the ground, covering him completely.

Mia sighed and called back the ribbon, "Stella, did I do it?" She asked.

"I don't think so." His dark voice rang out. The rubble glowed before blasting every which way. There stood Crometheus, glowing and pissed, "I've had enough of your games!"

He threw a glowing sphere of energy at her, which she avoided easily and ran forwards. The two launched into a series of kick and punches, where almost no magical attacks were used. Sailor Orpheus used agility and grace while Crometheus used brute strength. It seemed as though he would win when she suddenly flipped out of the way of his punch and he stumbled forward.

She pulled out her wand again and pressed it firmly into his back, "Orpheus ribbon attack!" She cried. The energy whip extended out, right through Crometheus's chest. She recalled her whip and jumped back.

Crometheus fell to his knees, blood pooling at his feet, "I..was defeated?" He asked himself, "By a mere girl?" He whispered.

"Not a girl, Sailor Orpheus!" Stella smirked, standing next to Orpheus.

Crometheus lurched forward and hit the ground, dead. His body began glowing and he slowly began to decompose before he became nothing but dust. Orpheus walked towards the pile and stared at it when her eyes caught something. Moving some of the dust, she found Ryo's kanji orb. She held it in her hands, staring at it in silence for a few minutes when she exploded.

"I did it? I DID IT!!" She exclaimed, jumping up. She turned to Stella with a wide grin, "Stella, did you see? I defeated him! I defeated he Dynasty, all on my own!!" She danced around, spinning and laughing when she noticed another thing.

In the doorway stood the Ronin Warriors, jaws dropped.

*~*~*~*~*

The guys had arrived in time to see the very end of the hand-to-hand combat. They watched as she defeated the man she fought with and take Ryo's orb. She cheered and twirled around when she stopped and noticed them, "M-Mia?!?" Kento blurted.

She smiled at them and ran over to hug Ryo, "I'm so glad you guys are ok!! I fought the Dynasty and defeated them all, did ya see! Look Ryo, I got your armor back, see!!" She bubbled handing him the red orb. Suddenly, she realized Ryo was here, "Ryo!! What are you doing out of bed?!? You were hurt so badly!"

"Wow Mia! You did all that?" Rowen asked, disbelieving.

"Yup! Me and Stella." She motioned to the lioness next to her.

"That was really great Mia, but where'd you get that power?" Sage asked.

"Well, there was this lady and-" She began but Ryo cut her off.

"What the hell were you thinking?" He asked harshly.

"Huh?" Orpheus blinked.

"Why in the world would you come here, knowing what risk you put yourself at?!" He snapped.

"Well I-I thought-" She couldn't think of anything to say.

"That's just it! You didn't think at all!!!" He shouted, glaring at her angrily.

Tears welded up in her eyes and she spun around, "I'm sorry for caring!" She cried as she pushed past the guys and ran out.

Stella glared up at Ryo, "Jerk." She hissed and followed after her mistress.

Ryo whirled around and slammed his fist into the wall, breaking the rock, "Dammit!!" He rapidly punched the wall before leaning his head against it, squeezing his eyes shut, "Dammit, dammit, dammit! She doesn't understand how much she means to me."

"Ryo, we understand how much you care, but you were a bit harsh." Cye explained calmly.

He sighed and nodded, "You're right, I lost my temper again."

He looked up when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He saw Sage, "Don't worry, Mia'll forgive you. She could never stay mad at anyone very long, especially you."

"Thanks guys." He smiled faintly. White Blaze nuzzled his side, "You too White Blaze."

"What are friends for?" The large cat asked.

"Now let's go home so Ryo can apologize to Mia and she can make us a great meal!!" Kento cheered, punching a fist into the air.

"You only think with your stomach, don't you?" Rowen laughed as they began walking away from the large tower and the dead corpse of Crometheus.

*~*~*~*~*

"Hey! I think I see the gate!!" Cye exclaimed.

"You're right!" Sage grinned as they quickened their pace.

As they walked, a sudden voice called out, "RYO!"

Looking further ahead, a small, moving form could be seen running towards them, "Stella?" Ryo whispered.

"AHH! Another talking cat! what happened while we were gone?!" Kento shouted.

Stella bounded up to them, sliding to a stop, "Come quick..Mia..she collapsed!"

"What?!" Ryo hissed. Before another word was uttered, Ryo shot forward. He ran as fast as his feet would carry him, heart pounding, 'This is my entire fault. If I hadn't yelled at her, she wouldn't have run off, using the rest of her energy.' He berated himself.

Soon, he cane to the gate and just before the exit, he saw a form lying sprawled on the ground, "MIA!!!" He shouted, running faster, if it were possible. When he came to her side, he slid on his knees, coming to a stop. Ryo cradled her in his arms, gently shaking her, "Mia, Mia, wake up, please!" He begged, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to yell at you."

He vaguely noticed when the others ran up behind him. Rowen crouched down next to him, "She's fine, it's as if she's in a coma."

Ryo stared helplessly down at her calm face, which now lacked her tiara. In fact, her entire sailor suit was gone, leaving Mia in her normal clothes.

All done! Awaiting the next chapter though. Hopefully, it wont be too long.
