Finding Out

An: Sorry It is taking so long to update, but hopefully this should satisfy those that are beginning to beg for an update.

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

Ryo and the others were frantically searching for Rowen.

"Where is he?" Ryo yelled at the warlords.

"We don't know Ryo. Jeeze lay off." Cale commented.

"Sorry." Just then the door opened and the Sailor Scouts walked in.

"Hey."

"What are you doing here? You deserted Amara!" Kento yelled. Lita walked over and proceeded to sprain his wrist.

"We didn't desert her. That is why we are here. We came to apologize. So where is she?"

"She was kidnapped." Ryo said. The scouts spun around to face him. Lita picked him off of the ground and threw him against the wall. The Ronins quickly rushed over and pulled her off of him.

"Some warriors. You can't even protect one girl." Lita spat at them. Serena walked over and put her hand on Ryo's shoulder. He brushed it off and walked upstairs. Everyone jumped when they heard his bedroom door slam shut and lock. Cye looked at Lita and growled venomously,

"He already thinks that it was his fault. Could you lower his confidence any more? Un-like you we weren't trained in a past life to do this. This was just slapped on us this lifetime. Besides what else could we have done? No one's attacks even worked against Astris."

"Astris?" asked Trista.

"Yeah. He called himself Lord Astris. Then he just kidnapped Amara saying that her energy was different and she was unique. That she would be his queen. He also knew everything about us. What…" he was cut off by a huge explosion. Looking up at the stairs he saw Ryo in full armor fly down them. Running over Cye helped him up and pulled him away from the stairs. As everyone transformed they saw a thousand youma heading down the stairs.

"Flare up Now!"

"Thunder Bolt Cut!"

"Iron Rock Crusher!"

"Classic Wave Smasher!"

"Quake With Fear!"

"Web of Deception!"

"Snake Fang Strike!"

"Black Lightening Strike!"

"Moon Energy Purify!"

"Mercury Ice Vapors Solidify!"

"Mars Flames Melt!"

"Jupiter Thunder Leaves Destroy!"

"Venus Arrows Stun!"

"Neptune Waters Drown!"

"Pluto Time Mummify!"

"Saturn Death Regulate!" as the youma were eliminated one by one the Scouts and the Ronins were glad to realize that they didn't bring backup. Just then as all the youma dissipated, Astris appeared. Ryo looking up glared and started to growl. Turning he looked at the other Ronins and the Warlords.

"All of you lend me your powers. I need to call upon the Inferno armor and since Rowen isn't here I want all seven of you to lend me your powers." They nodded and he brought out his Inferno armor.

"Rage Up Flare Up Now!" he yelled.

"Arrow Shock Wave!"

"Uranus Planets Surround and Destroy!" All of a sudden Ryo's attack was canceled. As everyone turned they were surprised to see Rowen and Amara.

"Rowen where were you?" Ryo asked.

"Can it cousin. Astris you okay?" Rowen called up.

"Yeah but you do know you cut hat to close. Amara, Rowen come here."

"Yes Astris." They both said and walked over. Turning to look at the Ronins and the Sailor Scouts they smirked.

"You are a traitor Amara!" Lita yelled.

"Rowen what are you doing?" Cye yelled.

"First of all Lita I don't think you are in any position to be deciding whether I am a traitor or not. Second of all I don't know what you mean. Evil has always been my birthright. When Galaxia turned me I realized that."

"Cye, I am doing what I want to do. All of you think that I am a goody-two-shoes. Well now you know the truth. I am not a bookworm and for once I like being on the winning side of things."

"See they know who is going to win this battle." Astris said.

"You brainwashed them!" yelled Serena.

"No I didn't Amara just needed to be persuaded and Rowen came to me and offered allegiance. So I didn't need to persuade them."

"Not true." Ryo yelled. He couldn't believe that Rowen would betray him like this. ~I won't believe it. I can't believe it. I have to get Rowen back! ~ He thought.

"Amara. This isn't you. You have to fight the evil!" Serena yelled.

"No. I don't have to fight the evil. What you are facing is the beginning of evil. Astris made Queen Beryl, Ann and Alan's people, the Dark Moon, the Nega Moon, Pharaoh Ninety, Queen Nehelania, and Chaos. You can't beat him. They were all a test to see how strong our defenses were. Talpa and his family they were also Astris' handy work. Sorry hime but you lost."

"No Amara I will get you back! Moon Healing Activation!" When that didn't work Serena tried again.

"Silver Crystal Power!"

"When are you going to learn hime you can't touch us? We are evil now. We are also going to win this."

"Serena don't try anymore. They are to far consumed by the evil to turn back."

"What do you mean Hotaru?"

"Look at their eyes. Not even the most evil being on Earth has those eyes. They have consumed more evil than Astris himself. If you try your strongest healing attack you will destroy their souls along with their bodies." Smirking Astris listened to them plan.

"Listen up. When we attack next we shall show no mercy. You shall die. Amara Rowen let's give them a good bye gift."

"Okay. Dark Arrow Shock Wave!"

"Uranus Eternal Torment Shock!" Disappearing the Rowen and Amara smirked at them. Rowen's attack hit Ryo dead on and Amara's attack slammed right into Serena. Screaming in pain Ryo and Serena fell to the floor. Pain coursed through their bodies as the attacks vanished.

"That was Amara's strongest attack!" Rei shrieked.

"Amara-papa what has happened to you?"

"Ryo wake up! Ryo!" Sage screamed at his friend. Amt ran over to Serena and gasped when she was the silver crystal in small fragments on the ground.

"The attack was aimed at the Silver Imperial Crystal." Amy said turning around.

"What does that mean?" Mina asked hoping that Serena was still alive.

"Serena is dying."

"How's Ryo?" Cale asked.

"He's dying. His orb is shattered to. We have lost them." Sage said standing up. Kento slammed his fist into the wall. No one could believe that their friends could do this. Sage stayed by Ryo's side until his breathing stopped and so did his heart. Serena died at the same time.

"They are both dead." Trista said.

"Rowen, Amara, Astris we will kill you." They all vowed at the same time.

An: Hey there. Yes this will turn into a death fic. I'm not sure what to do about the next chapter. Should I have Amara, Rowen, and Astris die and then leave it at that? Or should I give them another life? Should I put them in an alternate dimension? Please tell me. After I post the next chapter I will allow one week before I end the fic no matter what. Right now I have seven reviews on the story. If I don't have at least seventeen reviews after the next chapter is posted I will leave it that way. I need to know what I am doing. So please review and tell me. Ja ne!
