12th January 1999, City Hall, Sunnydale, CA.
Amy began coming too, she found herself tied to a stake looking around she saw Buffy & Willow, also tied to stakes to her left & in front of her were gathered their parents. It had all started apparently with, Joyce Summers discovering two children's bodies, with marks of witchcraft on them, it had started the witch hunts again, which had resulted in the three of them about to be burnt.
"Why are you doing this dad?" Amy called out to her father James Fury. "I have done nothing wrong, I am your daughter why are you trying to burn me at the stake?"
"You should have never followed your mother's path in magic, look at the trouble it caused her, where is she now probably rotting away in some prison most probably." James Fury snapped. "You are a witch & you will be burnt as a witch."
"Dad you don't know what you are doing." Amy replied panicking.
"You will be quiet Amy my dear, you will be quiet & you will die." James said setting alight to the wood gathered at the bottom of the stake. "I always feared you would follow your mother's path, & look where it has lead you & made me do, though it is what I should have done to your mother in the first place, it would have saved me a lot of trouble."
In a flash of white as the flames begin to spread, & when the light disappears nothing is left there, Amy has totally disappeared, just leaving the stake & the ropes that tied her there.
"Hey Amy what did you do?" Buffy called out. "& couldn't you have rescued us too."

28th February 1999. C-13, Manhattan, New York.
Alexandra stood outside the club enjoying the fresh air, she had been enjoying a night out with some of her friends, who were all inside of the club, but she stepped needing to get some air. She had just turned 17 two days ago, tonight she & her friends were out celebrating her birthday, but she missed her closest friend Miranda, who had disappeared at Christmas.
"Where did you go Miranda, why did you just disappear?" Alexandra asked looking to the sky.
"No need to worry Alex but I am back now." Miranda's voice said from the shadows. "But don't worry my friend, when my friends here are done, we will never be apart again we will be together for eternity."
"What?" Alexandra exclaimed.
12 figures jumped out of the shadows, dragging her body into the shadows, & begin biting down as their face's vamp out.
"Don't fully drain her, I want her turned she is to be my mate." Miranda demanded of the those that served her.
As the vampires started feeding, a white light embraced Alexandra's body, when the light disappeared Alexandra's body was gone & the vampire's turned to dust.
"Ok what the hell was that?" Miranda asked as she turned to dust, revealing a black man dressed in leather.
"Ok that was unusual." Blade said putting away his stake & disappearing into the shadows. "Wonder what that white light was all about?"

15th June 2391. Earth 1242, Starfleet Headquarters, San Francisco, CA, Earth.
Rana Riker stood with her class mates, having just finished qualifying as a cadet, preparing to leave on her first assignment of the ship the USS Saratoga, patrolling the neutral zone between the Romulan & Federation borders. She looked across seeing her 'aunts & uncles', gathered to see her graduate her only wish was that her parent Sean Riker & Deanna Troi, both of whom had died when the USS Eclipse had been destroyed in the Romulan/Bajoran conflict, leaving her alone to be raised by her aunts & uncles, growing up on the Enterprise E & F.
"Your parents would be extremely proud of you this day Rana." Dr Beverly Crusher said as her 'family approached. "So when do you leave on the Saratoga?"
"Tomorrow morning." Rana replied, but suddenly felt herself covered in this bright powerful white light. "Ok what the hell is going on here then?"
"Rana where are you?" Beverly called out as the light disappeared leaving no sign of Rana or what took her, tapping her com badge. "This is Dr Beverly Crusher, at the Starfleet graduation class, we have just had an unknown situation, cadet Rana Riker has disappeared in a white light, this is an unknown source & traces left.
"Commander Wesley Crusher Starfleet Intelligence, a team is on the way from Starfleet Science to investigate." Wesley Crusher replied over the com badge. "I assure you mother, we will find & rescue Rana she mean too much to us all."

Heaven, Time & Place Unknown.
Amy, Alexandra & Rana all appeared surrounded by a bright white light, finding a English looking man dressed in a brown suit, Amy & Alexandra looked confused by Rana appearance & her strange clothing.
"Ok what is going on here?" Alexandra asked rather confused.
"Yes who are you three?" Rana asked. "& what is where with your appearance anyway, did you come from some sort of party or something?"
"What?" Amy asked confused. "Where did you come a Star Trek convention or something?"
"What?" Rana asked confused.
"I am Le Metatron the Voice of the one True God." The man answered.
"What who?" Amy asked.
"I said I am Le Metatron the Voice of God." Metatron replied seriously. "When people have thought in the past, that they were speaking with god, they were in fact speaking with me."
"Ok so what does this have to do with us?" Alexandra asked confused.
"The modern world from which you Amy & Alexandra come from, is in grave danger from the forces of darkness." Metatron replied.
* * *
Later with Rana & Alexandra, are discussing their individual worlds, Amy seeks out & finds Le Metatron.
"Which or what demon are we talking about?" Amy asked. "But I don't get what why me, why not Buffy or one of the other Scoobies, I am nothing I just know a little magic, but the others are the ones used to dealing with vampires & demons. Hell I ain't even a member of the Scooby gang."
"Because this isn't a individual demon or vampire, there a series of events that need to be stopped, the darkness has been growing for a hundred years & is building into a war." Metatron replied. "This war will continue to a final battle between light & dark, a battle that will determine the future of mankind, as free men & women or as slaves & extinction. This war & battle needs an army & it needs leaders, the three of you are the start of this, you are the Trinity humanities greatest hope, who have appeared always in time of great darkness,"
"Ok so I get all that, but why me?" Amy asked. "Willow has more magic than even I do."
"No but your magic is more pure, your magic comes from within you, where Willow calls on her magic from the ancients gods." Metatron replied & Amy nodded. "Also it is your soul, that is part of the Trinity not Willows, nor Elizabeth nor anyone else."
"If you are sure." Amy replied seriously.
"I am & I think you know this as well." Metatron answered smiling.
"Ok thank you." Amy said turning to leave. "I think I am going to talk to Rana, I always wondered what the future held."
"Her future is not of this world, but a different dimension, the future is never set, it is always changing." Metatron replied as Amy left.
* * *
Alexandra approached Metatron having watched Amy leave, she could maybe see why Amy she had magic within her, but she was no warrior at all. Metatron produced two chairs along with, two halves of a chakram indicating for Alexandra to sit down & rest for a while, confused though Alexandra sat.
"So Alexandra, I bet you are wondering why you are here?" Metatron asked & Alexandra nodded. "Right?"
"Yes it would be nice." Alexandra replied. "& it is Alex please."
"Sure." Metatron answered passing the two halves of the 'Soul Chakram' to Alex. "You can feel the pull between them, allow them to join & your questions will be answered."
"Ok." Alex answered as she allowed the chakram halves to join enveloping her in the memories of her past.
"Hello Xena do you remember now." Metatron answered smiling.
"Yes I remember Metatron why am I here?" Alex asked seriously.
"The Trinity are need you are need as the warrior to lead the Trinity." Metatron replied & Alex nodded. "But I am sure you need time to think this over, but what ever happens there are people on Earth who would like to see you."
"Ok old friend." Alex said smiling & leaving.
* * *
Rana walked passed Alex as she came back, nodding to her Alex just smiled fingering a chakram, Rana looked puzzled the weapon & Alex began to tug at old memories, but she couldn't place it. Rana walked through to were Metatron was sitting he indicated to the chair opposite & she sat down.
"I take it you are wondering why you were pulled from the future correct?" Metatron asked seriously,
"Yes & why do Alex & Amy think my world is a TV show?" Rana asked.
"Because you are from a different dimension to ours, a world where the time moves differently to ours, where it is nearly 400 years in future." Metatron answered & Rana nodded. "I didn't choose from our future because, as I said future is not written yet on your world the future is now, we have difficult times ahead & we need the best to win this war, & that means you."
"OK so why me?" Rana asked.
"The Trinity needs someone able to heal, & someone that can receive vision." Metatron answered seriously. "With the quarter beta-zed blood in you, will enable you best to do this I know this is a lot to ask, & you like the others have the time to think about it. But please understand the future of our world, relies on the three of you working together, to fight the coming war & it may well cross to your universe eventually."
"I need to think." Rana said standing & going to walk away. "But if I am really that necessary, I am in but I wish to send a message to my family on my world, to tell them that I am safe. They maybe able to help us, provide us with resources & weapon & maybe even soldiers."
"The message I will allow." Metatron answered. "Write a message, I will arrange PAD to be with you when you need it, as for the request for help & allies that maybe difficult the more interaction between dimensions weakens the barrier between dimensions & that will hurt us all. I need to think about it."
* * *
Hours later, Amy, Alex & Rana stood gathered with Metatron, in front of a cave entrance, all three of them had been told that, to face their destinies they had to pass three tests. Alex would face the test of fire, to determine whether she was the warrior, Amy would face the test of light, & Rana would face the test of Truth.
"Alex you will go first." Metatron stated, the cave set ablaze on fire, & Alex nodded. "The fire won't warm you, only what you take in with you can harm you, you will face your actions of your past Xena, the past of the warlord, you have to forgive yourself for your past life. Your actions after the darkness, more than made up for the dark act you performed, but you never ever forgave yourself for those actions did you."
Alex said nothing but entered the fire, she faced the faces of everyone she ever killed, she felt tears rolling down her cheeks as she saw for she had once cared for, those that she had killed. She knew Metatron was right when he said, she had redeemed herself past actions, in her life as Xena, but she never felt forgave herself for her actions.
But she found herself in front of her mother & brothers, & those of her mortal friends, & she found herself for the first time in her life to be happy, & felt nothing but love & strength. The flames were drawn into her feeding the strength inside, her family of her past lives waved as they disappeared, leaving a single sword of unique & powerful design.
Reaching out for the sword taking the handle of the sword, a female spirit dressed in a form close fitting chain mail armour, with long electric blue hair binded down her back, with the same sword as she now hand strapped down her back.
"Who are you?" Alex asked.
"I am Toa the ancients, the first warrior of the Trinity." The woman replied. "To accept the weapon, is to accept everything that comes with it, the power, the truth, the light, the dark, the pain & the joy, do you accept what destiny offers you."
"I do." Alex said taking the sword.
* * *
Amy entered the cave filled with light, finding her mother's spirit standing opposite her, who slowly transformed herself into Amy's form.
"I am not like her, I am nothing like my mother." Amy stated furiously. "I am nothing like my mother, I don't dominate people I don't use magic just to benefit myself, I am nothing like her I never use any of the magic she did."
But the image just remained starring at her.
"Ok so I used magic too occasionally to get out of doing homework & chores around the house." Amy replied. "But I would never use magic for darkness, like mum did I am nothing like her.
"No but that was how I started, a little magic to get away with doing no homework, getting away with doing no chores around the house." Catherine Madison said stepping through the image. "I thought using a little magic here & there, help me get through school & to be popular & to have friends, then I just lost were the magic stopped & where I begun."
"So what are you saying that I will end up like you?" Amy asked getting mad. "No I am not evil I won't make my children suffer, like you made me suffer, I swear I will not become you!" Screaming.
"Good." Catherine said disappearing.
The sorcessoress's book appeared in front of her, with a woman dressed in white robes & short silver hair.
"Who are You?" Amy asked seriously.
"I am Shi the ancients, the first sorcessor of the Trinity." The woman replied. "To accept the book, is to accept everything that comes with it, the power, the truth, the light, the dark, the pain & the joy, do you accept what destiny offers you."
"I do." Alex said taking the sword.
* * *
Rana entered the darkened cave unsure what she would find, she then found herself back in her own time, except the federation nor Starfleet existed, & everything she saw was in ruins, with nothing she knew or loved even built.
"What has happened why?" Rana asked in shock. "Where is the paradise I came from, where is the United Federation of Planets, where Earth were central to it."
"The Federation never was, Earth fell to the demons at the beginning of the 21st century." Metatron said stepping out of the wreckage. "Though the Earth you are on currently is not destined to form the United Federation of Planets, but the human race will still be enslaved, this is what will happen if you & the others fail."
"But I could go home right?" Rana asked. "I could go home & forget all this ever happened right?"
"Yes if you wished." Metatron replied. "But the threat will eventually come to your world, do you think the federation would be prepared to dealing with things, no one has thought about in several hundred years?"
"But I could go there & gather an army & come back & beat the darkness off here for good." Rana suggested.
"No you couldn't, for one imagine all the innocents that would be caught in the crossfire, those humans that are linked to the supernatural, weres, witches, half breed, & the demons that don't fight who just want to live out normal mortal lives." Metatron replied.
"Yeah I know." Rana answered sadly. "That is why I choose to join, I need to know my world will be safe, even if it means giving up that world & living in another. You give me your word that my 'family' on my world will get my message?"
"Of course." Metatron answered simply.
"Thank you." Rana replied as he disappeared leaving a silver crystal orb hanging off a chain, with a dark skinned woman dressed in red with braided white hair down her back. "Who are you?"
"I am Rna the ancients, the first seer of the Trinity." The woman replied. "To accept the orb, is to accept everything that comes with it, the power, the truth, the light, the dark, the pain & the joy, do you accept what destiny offers you."
"I do." Alex said taking the sword.
* * *
Heaven, Time & Place Unknown.
Alex, Amy, & Rana arrived back in the white light accompanied by Metatron, the three of them were carrying the sword, staff & orb, smiling to each other, pleased that the three of them had passed their tests.
"You have now passed the three tests, you are the Warrior. Mage, & the Healer, in name only." Metatron answered seriously.
Summoning Alex forward holding a replica of her light & dark chakram, placing it within Alex's open hands.
"With this weapon I open to you memories, strength & powers of all the greatest warriors of past, human, demon & alien, good & evil." Metatron said as energy passed through the chakram & into Alex. "Rise from here & become the warrior you were destined to become."
Alex stepped back & Amy stepped forward, & Metatron produced the 'Book of Shadows', placing it into Amy's open arms.
"With this book I pass onto you all the knowledge, memories, strength & powers, of all the greatest witches, wizards, mages, & warlocks, human, demon & alien good & evil. Metatron stated as the book's glow passed in Amy. "The book has every spell from the past, rise from here & become the mage you were destined to become."
Amy stepped back & Rana stepped forward & Metatron produced a glowing ball of light, placing it into Rana's open arms.
"With this orb I pass onto you the gift of healing & the powers of a whitelighter, as the mortal you are." Metatron said as the orb disappeared with it's powers going into Rana. "I also pass onto you the power of inner- sight, the power to past & future events, to aid yourselves in your quest for light."
"Thank you." Amy, Alex, & Rana said accepting their gifts.
Metatron took their hands together joining them together.
"I need to now link your minds, linking you telepathically." Metatron said as the powers passed through him into them. "This will allow you to always be linked to each other, enabling you to never lose contact with each other."
* * *
The four of them appeared in a lounge type area, Metatron indicated for Amy, Alex & Rana to sit down, as he sat in a big comfy armchair.
"I need to tell you about the past of the human race." Metatron answered smiling. "The human race is older than you believe over 200,000 years ago an empire roamed the galaxy, ruled by the previous incarnation of the human race, you brought peace & harmony to the universe, policing galaxy to keep the peace. The race is commonly referred to in modern society as the 'Ancients'."
"You mean like the spirit within my sword?" Alex asked.
"No Toa, Shi & Rna stories will come later." Metatron replied & Alex nodded. "But eventually the ancients moved on disappearing over time, no one knows why or how, but they left behind their children & their technology, which included the chapi'ra, or the 'Stargate' as your military calls it now allowing travel between planets. For over a hundred & fifty millennium's the children of the ancients continued their ancestor's empire of peace in the galaxy, trying to carry on their ancestor's mission. But the darkness became to much for them & they were at constant war, about 50,000 years ago the demon races appeared here throughout the galaxy, causing the ancients a lot of problems, but as they lost ground they continued holding Earth as their last hope & built the city of Atlantis, to rule from, but the demons were so powerful they eventually overthrew the empire plunging the galaxy into chaos & panic.
"Three leaders of the crumbling empire, Toa, Shi & Rna banded together with those remaining ancients, re-forming the 'Order of Light' with their rangers. The rangers lead by Toa, Shi & Rna fought against the darkness, & were able to banish the demon over lords & most of their minions 10,000 years ago. But it cost them dearly, Toa, Shi & Rna died & had their essences locked into the 'Sword of Fire', the 'Staff of Truth', & the 'Orb of Light', but also the human race was virtually dying & every indication of their society was gone & was eventually forgotten as myths & legends. From their the human race eventually evolved into what stands today."
"Ok I think all I can say is wow." Amy replied & the others nodded. "Ok, thank you for the history lesson is there anything else you can tell us?"
"No the rest you will have to find out on your own." Metatron replied. "Anyway I believe it is time you were all going."
Retrieving a jewel bag from the table in front of him & passed it over.
"In there is equilivnant of $500,000 worth of jewels, which you should be able to exchange quiet easily in jewel brokers anywhere on Earth." Metatron replied. "You should be receiving help from others, for every other of your needs by the end of your first assignment, now I need to send the three of you back, 10 years into your past, 1st January 1989 to be precise."
& the three of them disappeared & a woman appeared beside Metatron.
"I just hope they survive & succeed after all so much is depending on them." Metatron commented to the woman then listening for a second. "Yes I do believe they have what it takes, but they are all so young & this such a great responsibility."

"I need to think." Rana said standing & going to walk away. "But if I am really that necessary, I am in but I wish to send a message to my family on my world, to tell them that I am safe. They maybe able to help us, provide us with resources & weapon & maybe even soldiers."
"The message I will allow." Metatron answered. "Write a message, I will arrange PAD to be with you when you need it, as for the request for help & allies that maybe difficult the more interaction between dimensions weakens the barrier between dimensions & that will hurt us all. I need to think about it."

Hours later, Amy, Alex & Rana stood gathered with Metatron, in front of a cave entrance, all three of them had been told that, to face their destinies they had to pass three tests. Alex would face the test of fire, to determine whether she was the warrior, Amy would face the test of light, & Rana would face the test of Truth.
"Alex you will go first." Metatron stated, the cave set ablaze on fire, & Alex nodded. "The fire won't warm you, only what you take in with you can harm you, you will face your actions of your past Xena, the past of the warlord, you have to forgive yourself for your past life. Your actions after the darkness, more than made up for the dark act you performed, but you never ever forgave yourself for those actions did you."
Alex said nothing but entered the fire, she faced the faces of everyone she ever killed, she felt tears rolling down her cheeks as she saw for she had once cared for, those that she had killed. She knew Metatron was right when he said, she had redeemed herself past actions, in her life as Xena, but she never felt forgave herself for her actions.
But she found herself in front of her mother & brothers, & those of her mortal friends, & she found herself for the first time in her life to be happy, & felt nothing but love & strength. The flames were drawn into her feeding the strength inside, her family of her past lives waved as they disappeared, leaving a single sword of unique & powerful design.
Reaching out for the sword taking the handle of the sword, a female spirit dressed in a form close fitting chain mail armour, with long electric blue hair binded down her back, with the same sword as she now hand strapped down her back.
"Who are you?" Alex asked.
"I am Toa the ancients, the first warrior of the Trinity." The woman replied. "To accept the weapon, is to accept everything that comes with it, the power, the truth, the light, the dark, the pain & the joy, do you accept what destiny offers you."
"I do." Alex said taking the sword.

Amy entered the cave filled with light, finding her mother's spirit standing opposite her, who slowly transformed herself into Amy's form.
"I am not like her, I am nothing like my mother." Amy stated furiously. "I am nothing like my mother, I don't dominate people I don't use magic just to benefit myself, I am nothing like her I never use any of the magic she did."
But the image just remained starring at her.
"Ok so I used magic too occasionally to get out of doing homework & chores around the house." Amy replied. "But I would never use magic for darkness, like mum did I am nothing like her.
"No but that was how I started, a little magic to get away with doing no homework, getting away with doing no chores around the house." Catherine Madison said stepping through the image. "I thought using a little magic here & there, help me get through school & to be popular & to have friends, then I just lost were the magic stopped & where I begun."
"So what are you saying that I will end up like you?" Amy asked getting mad. "No I am not evil I won't make my children suffer, like you made me suffer, I swear I will not become you!" Screaming.
"Good." Catherine said disappearing.
The sorcessoress's book appeared in front of her, with a woman dressed in white robes & short silver hair.
"Who are You?" Amy asked seriously.
"I am Shi the ancients, the first sorcessor of the Trinity." The woman replied. "To accept the book, is to accept everything that comes with it, the power, the truth, the light, the dark, the pain & the joy, do you accept what destiny offers you."
"I do." Alex said taking the sword.

Rana entered the darkened cave unsure what she would find, she then found herself back in her own time, except the federation nor Starfleet existed, & everything she saw was in ruins, with nothing she knew or loved even built.
"What has happened why?" Rana asked in shock. "Where is the paradise I came from, where is the United Federation of Planets, where Earth were central to it."
"The Federation never was, Earth fell to the demons at the beginning of the 21st century." Metatron said stepping out of the wreckage. "Though the Earth you are on currently is not destined to form the United Federation of Planets, but the human race will still be enslaved, this is what will happen if you & the others fail."
"But I could go home right?" Rana asked. "I could go home & forget all this ever happened right?"
"Yes if you wished." Metatron replied. "But the threat will eventually come to your world, do you think the federation would be prepared to dealing with things, no one has thought about in several hundred years?"
"But I could go there & gather an army & come back & beat the darkness off here for good." Rana suggested.
"No you couldn't, for one imagine all the innocents that would be caught in the crossfire, those humans that are linked to the supernatural, weres, witches, half breed, & the demons that don't fight who just want to live out normal mortal lives." Metatron replied.
"Yeah I know." Rana answered sadly. "That is why I choose to join, I need to know my world will be safe, even if it means giving up that world & living in another. You give me your word that my 'family' on my world will get my message?"
"Of course." Metatron answered simply.
"Thank you." Rana replied as he disappeared leaving a silver crystal orb hanging off a chain, with a dark skinned woman dressed in red with braided white hair down her back. "Who are you?"
"I am Rna the ancients, the first seer of the Trinity." The woman replied. "To accept the orb, is to accept everything that comes with it, the power, the truth, the light, the dark, the pain & the joy, do you accept what destiny offers you."
"I do." Alex said taking the sword.

Heaven, Time & Place Unknown.
Alex, Amy, & Rana arrived back in the white light accompanied by Metatron, the three of them were carrying the sword, staff & orb, smiling to each other, pleased that the three of them had passed their tests.
"You have now passed the three tests, you are the Warrior. Mage, & the Healer, in name only." Metatron answered seriously.
Summoning Alex forward holding a replica of her light & dark chakram, placing it within Alex's open hands.
"With this weapon I open to you memories, strength & powers of all the greatest warriors of past, human, demon & alien, good & evil." Metatron said as energy passed through the chakram & into Alex. "Rise from here & become the warrior you were destined to become."
Alex stepped back & Amy stepped forward, & Metatron produced the 'Book of Shadows', placing it into Amy's open arms.
"With this book I pass onto you all the knowledge, memories, strength & powers, of all the greatest witches, wizards, mages, & warlocks, human, demon & alien good & evil. Metatron stated as the book's glow passed in Amy. "The book has every spell from the past, rise from here & become the mage you were destined to become."
Amy stepped back & Rana stepped forward & Metatron produced a glowing ball of light, placing it into Rana's open arms.
"With this orb I pass onto you the gift of healing & the powers of a whitelighter, as the mortal you are." Metatron said as the orb disappeared with it's powers going into Rana. "I also pass onto you the power of inner- sight, the power to past & future events, to aid yourselves in your quest for light."
"Thank you." Amy, Alex, & Rana said accepting their gifts.
Metatron took their hands together joining them together.
"I need to now link your minds, linking you telepathically." Metatron said as the powers passed through him into them. "This will allow you to always be linked to each other, enabling you to never lose contact with each other."

The four of them appeared in a lounge type area, Metatron indicated for Amy, Alex & Rana to sit down, as he sat in a big comfy armchair.
"I need to tell you about the past of the human race." Metatron answered smiling. "The human race is older than you believe over 200,000 years ago an empire roamed the galaxy, ruled by the previous incarnation of the human race, you brought peace & harmony to the universe, policing galaxy to keep the peace. The race is commonly referred to in modern society as the 'Ancients'."
"You mean like the spirit within my sword?" Alex asked.
"No Toa, Shi & Rna stories will come later." Metatron replied & Alex nodded. "But eventually the ancients moved on disappearing over time, no one knows why or how, but they left behind their children & their technology, which included the chapi'ra, or the 'Stargate' as your military calls it now allowing travel between planets. For over a hundred & fifty millennium's the children of the ancients continued their ancestor's empire of peace in the galaxy, trying to carry on their ancestor's mission. But the darkness became to much for them & they were at constant war, about 50,000 years ago the demon races appeared here throughout the galaxy, causing the ancients a lot of problems, but as they lost ground they continued holding Earth as their last hope & built the city of Atlantis, to rule from, but the demons were so powerful they eventually overthrew the empire plunging the galaxy into chaos & panic.
"Three leaders of the crumbling empire, Toa, Shi & Rna banded together with those remaining ancients, re-forming the 'Order of Light' with their rangers. The rangers lead by Toa, Shi & Rna fought against the darkness, & were able to banish the demon over lords & most of their minions 10,000 years ago. But it cost them dearly, Toa, Shi & Rna died & had their essences locked into the 'Sword of Fire', the 'Staff of Truth', & the 'Orb of Light', but also the human race was virtually dying & every indication of their society was gone & was eventually forgotten as myths & legends. From their the human race eventually evolved into what stands today."
"Ok I think all I can say is wow." Amy replied & the others nodded. "Ok, thank you for the history lesson is there anything else you can tell us?"
"No the rest you will have to find out on your own." Metatron replied. "Anyway I believe it is time you were all going."
Retrieving a jewel bag from the table in front of him & passed it over.
"In there is equilivnant of $500,000 worth of jewels, which you should be able to exchange quiet easily in jewel brokers anywhere on Earth." Metatron replied. "You should be receiving help from others, for every other of your needs by the end of your first assignment, now I need to send the three of you back, 10 years into your past, 1st January 1989 to be precise."
& the three of them disappeared & a woman appeared beside Metatron.
"I just hope they survive & succeed after all so much is depending on them." Metatron commented to the woman then listening for a second. "Yes I do believe they have what it takes, but they are all so young & this such a great responsibility."
