EPISODE 258: METAL FALCON SANCTUARY

Belle The Metal Falcon Bird had received a telepathic message from Cherish the Queen Metal Falcon
Bird that resided on the planet of Celestia. Belle flew from Princess Celina's chambers to where Queen
Celestia and Belle addressed her.

'Your majesty, I am called elsewhere. I do not know when I will return.'

Belle the Metal Falcon Bird spoke to the queen. The queen already knew who had called Belle and she answered
Belle.

"Yes, I understand. Please return safely."

Queen Celestia gave Belle her blessing and Belle flew out of the palace and headed east. Cherish's voice could be heard
in Belle's head as she flew. She flew east. She listened to Cherish speak to her and Belle forgot how long she had traveled
and in no time she made it to the Metal Falcon Bird Sanctuary. The Sanctuary was a massive place where most of the Metal
Falcon Birds dwelt. However, Metal Falcon Birds dwelt everywhere on the planet, but mostly here. Two Metal Falcon Bird Guards
guarded the entrance and they spoke to Belle.

'Identify yourself!'

One of the Metal Falcon Bird Guards spoke to Belle and she responded.

'My name is Belle. I was called here by Cherish, the Queen Metal Falcon Bird.'

Belle responded to the bird guards.

'Wait here.'

One of the guards spoke to Belle and she flew off and then returned and spoke again.

'Follow us and we will lead you to our beloved queen.'

One of the bird guards told Belle and they lead Belle to their queen and Belle landed on a rock near
the queen and the queen spoke.

'Guards leave us.'

Cherish the Queen Metal Falcon Bird spoke to the guards and the guards left Belle and Cherish. Cherish spoke
to Belle.

'I am glad that you have made it here. I am called Cherish, I am the Queen Metal Falcon Birds of the planet Celestia and
my partner is Queen Celestia who rules this planet. I already know that you have a partner that you have fused with correct?'

Cherish introduced herself to Belle and she knew all about Belle and that she had fused with Usagi.

'Yes, i have fused with Usagi Tsukino-Chiba who is now known as Princess Celina. However, it's been sometime ago since
I last fused with her.'

Belle explained that Usagi was the one who she had fused with but it had been sometime since they were last fused.

'Good. The reason I called you here is that only certain Metal Falcon Birds who is the first of the planet they hatch on may
become Queen Metal Falcon Birds. I will give you your quest. You must protect your partner by risking your own life. I know
that will be hard to do since Bor' On hasn't risen yet. Do you have any questions my child?'

Cherish explained that in order for Belle to be the Queen Metal Falcon Bird of the earth, she had to protect her partner and
risk her own life.

'That may be a hard task. However, after that task has been performed, then what?'

Belle asked after her task had been completed what would happen next.

'Once you return to earth, you will become a Queen Metal Falcon Bird and you will be able to lay and hatch Metal Falcon
Bird eggs. However, your task, you may not tell anyone including your partner. This must be known only to you and when
the time you feel is right, protect your partner by risking your life.'

Cherish explained that once Belle's task was completed that she would become a Queen Metal Falcon Bird and she could
lay and hatch eggs. However, she couldn't tell anyone about this and she would know when the time was right to protect her
partner.

'Very well. That will be a hard task too fulfill. Usagi is a girl that means a lot to me. I will accept your quest.'

Belle the Metal Falcon Bird accepted the quest that Cherish had given her. And Belle would remain at the Metal Falcon Bird
Sanctuary for the time being until she knew Usagi's own task was completed... going to the Sacred Springs.

Presented By The Crystal Knight.
