Legend of the Empress
Chapter 3: Leaving for a New Adventure

"What is taking her so long?" Shalamon whined.

"Calm Down, Merina will be here sooner or later." Ameria stated calmly as she sat next to a small brook that went through their opening.

"But it is already getting dark and we're stuck here." Justedia whined as well.

"Stop whining you too. Zadese, can you tell us when she is returning?" Ameria asked looking at Zadese who was still laying on the ground where they had found her in the same position, laying on her back head resting on her arms. She didn't respond or even moved. Looking at the others, they shared a blank look.

"Zadese." Ameria called no response again.

"ZADESE!" Shalamon yelled but still nothing.

"She's asleep." Justedia stated plainly.

"How does she do that? Just fall asleep at the most inappropriate of times." Shalamon asked her voice showing how confused she was at the idea.

"Simple she knows how to separate her worries from her mind when she can't do anything to solve the worries." Ameria answered as she watched Justedia walk up to the tree line.

"And how does she do that? Because I would love to learn that." Commented Shalamon as she sat down nest to Zadese staring at her blankly.

""Would you really want to learn from Zadese?" asked Ameria.

"Why not?"

"Zee's a fairly good teacher, Ameria?" Justedia stated still looking through the trees.

"What are you doing Justedia?" Ameria finally asked.

Justedia just reached out her hand only to meet the boundary wall. Creating water like ripple around the palm of her hand. Never answering she just added her other hand to create two ripples. As she moved her hands the ripples moved with them.

"Cool." muttered Justedia as she pushed harder. Suddenly a force pushed Justedia and she went flying backwards. Shalamon and Ameria ran to Justedia to see if she was hurt.

"Are you okay?" Ameria asked looking over her.

"Yeah, just that wall has a punch." She said laughing then looking down she stopped before getting angry, "My pants, shit. Grass stains."

"Just, they were wrecked before now." Shalamon stated dryly.

"Damb, you guys are loud." Zadese complained as she stretched from her now sitting position, before putting on her over shirt that she used as a pillow.

"We're so sorry, your highness." Shalamon joked sarcastically.

"Oh, that's okay I would have awoken up anyways. Merina's coming and she's not alone."

"Not alone?" Ameria asked.

"Where is she? I don't see anyone." Justedia said.

"Wait." Zadese said stretching as she stood up. Then she went to straitening and wiping her clothes off. The other three women began to do the same. Just then two figures began to show in the forest coming towards coming towards them. As they got closer they could tell that one was much, much larger then the other. The closer they came they saw that the smaller one was Merina no Sailor Green Universe and there was something in her closed hand. Next to her was a very tall strange looking man monster. It had four very large spider legs, two arms with crab hands and two vines as arms. It/he had an almost human male body and a head that looked like a man with antlers and green stone like scales instead of skin. He as they could tell was smiling and saying something to Sailor Green to make her laugh. The other four looked ready for anything but not for the shy, passive one of them to be laughing over something a stranger would say as she was Sailor Green.

"Hey guys, Relax."

"Are you okay? You never transform unless there is no chose." Ameria asked looking worried.

"I know and yes I am fine. This is Lorko he is or was the protector of the Jade Crystal."

"You have the Jade Crystal then?" asked Shalamon.

"Yes, I do. We had a slight fight before I got it. But now I have it." Merina said proudly holding out the crystal. The others stared at the crystal. It was shining bright vibrate forest green gem, it was a perfect circle jewel that fit perfectly in the palm of her hand just small enough so her hand just small enough so she could close her hand around it.

"How did you get it?" asked Ameria

"Like I said we had a slight fight. But in the end I got the crystal in my hands and the fight was pretty much over."

"I was not allowed to just give the Jade Crystal. In-fact, when I got the Jade crystal I was told to kill anyone trying to get it. And that only one would survive and actually find and hold the Jade Crystal. That one would be one of the Empress Bodyguards and the keeper of the Jade Crystal."

"But you were still trying to kill me after I transformed." Merina stated confused.

Lorko smirked "Well just because you are a sailor soldier doesn't mean that you were the Empress high guard."

This made the women smile. Then Ameria looked confused.

"Wait, who gave you the crystal and told you this?"

"Actually, the Jade Crystal just appeared while I was sleeping in the stone and the forest started growing within one day of its appearance. The same night The Jade Crystal appeared I was dreaming of a woman of great beauty with a calming green light shining off her essence. She told me what I told you and… you know what, now that I think about it you Green Universe look a lot like her right now, strange."

They were all silent for a while, no one knowing what to say.

"Well, we should go." Merina said.

"Sure" was coursed.

"Does this mean I have to crawl through that tunnel again?" Justedia whined.

"If you are will I can show you another way, but it is a bit dangerous." Lorko offered.

"Do I have to crawl or walk though mud?" Justedia asked.

"No"

"Then lets do it."

"Justedia you are conceded." Shalamon stated dryly.

"I know"

"Grrrhh. For the love of all." Shalamon said groaning and shaking her head while the others laughed.

"Ok, Lorko lead the way." Zadese said enthusiastically.

"Okay." Lorko said before he walked in to the woods with Merina fallowing shortly. The other women stayed were they were they didn't want to go flying again.

Looking back Merina noticed that they never moved. She stopped Lorko before asking

"Are you guys coming?"

"Last time we tried to walk into the woods we all went flying, and a few moments before you two came out Justedia was looking at the boundary and she went flying backwards." Ameria told them.

"We really don't want to be thrown back again, it kind of hurts." Jastedia interrupted Ameria.

"Its okay, this time you wont be held back." Lorko said calmly.

Looking at each other for a moment finally Zadese started walking slowly after a few steps she was at the woods line. Taking a deep breath she took one step and then another when nothing happen and then keep going slowly till she was beside Merina where she stopped and looked back. After seeing her smile the other three repeated her movements when they were around Merina and Lorko, they all continued on with Merina shaking her head while trying to get her smile under control before she started laughing. For this she got four glares.

Lorko lead the way with Merina walk aside for some time, going through brushes and water springs. Finally they came to a rock face of the cave that had a hole in it. The women went to stop but Lorko shock his head and kept walking. After a short time they came to a wall of trees, brushes and flowers.

Slowly they walk through them to see a door in the cave wall. The door was a white marble stone covered in green vines that created circle designs on it. There was a diamond shaped green jewel in the center of the door.

"So, all you have to do is push the jewel and the door will open. But be careful the passage to the surface is full of traps."

"What kind of traps?" asked Merina.

"Collapsing steps, hidden wires that release arrows from the walls, poison snakes, and trigger cave-ins"

"Lovely" Justedia commented dryly for everyone.

"Lorko, can you tell us where the triggers and wires are?" asked Ameria

"No, Sorry! I never went through. But I do know what I have told you nothing more. Except that when you come to the other door it's locked and the combination is colour coded. Sorry, I can't help more."

"That's okay you have at least warned us. So Merina you get to open the door. So have at err." Zadese said with a smile.

"Why me?"

"Because it's your galaxy."

"Because it's your planet."

"Because you got the first crystal"

"And because none of us want to open that door, remember traps."

"Thank you guys for your group logic." Merina commented dryly.

"Your welcome!" they chorused. Lorko just shook his head with a large broad smile plaster on his face not even trying to hide it.

Taking a deep breath Merina pushed the green jewel, the door slowly pushed into the rock wall. Taking another deep breath Merina walked into the door way after saying a quick goodbye to Lorko. One by one the women coped Merina's movements. As the last women entered through the door as it began to close the women shared a final goodbye with Lorko. Then they began up the stairs that was surprisingly light like the cave.

Several hours Later…

"Finally, the door, if we had to climb anymore stairs, you were going to haft to carry me, Shal." Whined Justedia.

"I wouldn't have carried you." Shalamon stated strongly.

"Well, at least it wasn't boring Just." smirked Zadese.

"I would have preferred boring. Thank You. I really don't like this trip. First my shoes then my pants were ruined. Second Merina's dress is nothing but rages now. Third, I will never be able to fix your pants or Ameria's skirt thanks to those arrows. Fourth those stairs nearly killed us. Again, first the snakes thousands of poison snakes. Then the collapsing stairs that was ten feet wide I'm shocked we actually jumped that hole. Lets not forget that they nearly killed Shalamon, she's lucky her reflexes and yours Zee are so good or she would be dead as in staked. After that endless walking up stairs and then the sudden falling rocks and lets certainly not forget the arrows that were everywhere on those stairs and no sign of the triggers or wires." Justedia ranted on as she paced furiously back and forth.

"Yes, but know we're here. What do you think the combo is?" Merina asked calmly.

Ameria looked at the six coloured stones on the plain door. "Well, in a circle of red, green, white, purple, clear, and blue…Justedia are you done ranting and whining?"

"Yes"

"Good! Zadese, Justedia what do you see?"

There was silence as Zadese's eyes turned silver and Justedia stared at the door with purple mist clouding her eyes. Finally Zadese eyes went to their normal blue-white shade.

"Nope, no prediction."

Turning to Justedia waiting for her response. "Merina push the stones green, purple, blue, red, white, and clear." And Merina did just as she was told.

Nothing happened at first, and then the door moved out allowing bright light to shine in. One by one the women left the cave to the outside onto the surface of the green planet.

Look around they saw forest all around, trees after trees again a small rock mould they climbed from. There was one small barely seen path going east. So they took it seen all other ways were blocked. After just under half an hour of walking they came to a beach that stretched for a far as they could see.

"Wow, beautiful!"

"What the water or the beach, Ameria?" asked Merina.

"Both."

"So, which way?" Zadese asked as she took her damaged cover shirt off and looking at it decided where it was worth keeping or not, then put it into her sub-space pocket.

Ameria opens her holo-computer up after a few moments of hitting keys she closes it and points east, "That way."

They all began down the beach and after a long while they could see their camp. The fire was out and there was nothing there but a deep red mare with a black mane and tail laying by the forest line. Above her was a black and white owl looking asleep on a branch of a tree.

"Hay you two, where are the others?" Shalamon asked the two animals.

"Shadow the ocean. Intaya the forest the last day of hunt. Shrawk flying." Answered the owl shortly in a posh voice.

"Must you always be curt?" asked the horse softly, her voice sound as the wind carried it.

"Yes"

"HEEEE. I love watching you two argue its almost none existent. By the way Merina has her crystal." Laughed Justedia.

"Really, great work." Praised the horse as she stood up.

"Thank you Cosmos."

"Are you going to congratulate her, Farall?" asked Ameria

"No point, was her takes." Answered the Farall 'the owl' not even opening his eyes.

"Don't waste your time, he doesn't praise." Said Justedia

"We should go, so which galaxy?" asked Merina.

"Lets just teleport to the closes of the three of you?" suggested Zadese.

"Why us three, don't you mean four?" asked Shalamon for the others

"No, my galaxy is in the secluded and far sector of the universe. Ameria how long would it take us to get there from here?"

"Umm! 1035 years give or take a ear or so." She said typing on the holo-computer.

"See, so lets just work our way there."

"Okay, Lets do it." Merina said before blowing a piercing whistle. "SHRAWK!"

"That hurt. SHADOW!" Ameria commented before calling her wolf.

"So did that. Zadese are you going to call Intaya back?" Asked Shalamon watching Zadese stretch.

"No, she's already here actually next to you." She answered still stretching. Looking around her Shalamon jump about a foot when she saw the very large white and black tiger right beside her staring at Shalamon.

"I'm sorry, did I startle you Shalamon?" Intaya asked sounding amused.

"yah." was her answer with a glare added.

"Are we ready?" Asked Ameria, with that animals and women stood together in a circle. First was Zadese with a hand on sitting Intaya head. On Zadese left with Intaya between is Shalamon petting Cosmos mane as she stood on her left. Then continuing on Justedia stood with Farall on her left shoulder. Next to her was Ameria rubbing the ear of a barely dry bluish-white wolf known as Shadow. And Merina stood between shadow and Zadese with green, brown and red feathered falcon called Shrawk on her left wrist.

Each woman nodded their head showing their readiness.

"Sailor Green Universe Power"

"Sailor Blue Universe Power"

"Sailor Purple Universe Power"

"Sailor Red Universe Power"

"Sailor White Universe Power"

Each woman shined brightly their own colour and the animals shined the colour of the women touching them. They shined so bright that if anyone was to be there to watch them they would be blind for some time. Then the light reached the sky and it was gone and with the light so were any trace of the women and animals.

Far from the green planet there is an unruly planet that unlike other planets had a purple sky. This planet did have being on it and with a purple sky this world also had the gift of magic every where and in everything.

On a normal day on the edge of a small city is a castle and in this castle there is a great garden facing a mountain. In the garden today is a king having a morning meal with twenty women of great beauty at another table then him but still with him. All around the garden is dozens of dozens of soldiers on guard.

Suddenly there is a bright flash of light and a suddenly as it came it went but it left five beautiful women and five strange animals.

Acting quickly the soldiers attack the women but the women are weak from the trip they just took and were knock out quickly. The animals attacking the soldiers but the large group of soldiers showed to be to much. Intaya was rendered unconscious by a hit since the soldier had magic and she couldn't disappear. Cosmos was caught by a net and some of the men that were very fast. Farall and Shrawk went to fly to safety but Farall wasn't fast enough and was hit by some weapon falling to the ground hurt. Before passing out he told Shrawk and Shadow to go. They did Shrawk fly high as he could then disappeared in the sun. Shadow been missed through most of the fight but when Farall said go, he disappeared into the shadows of the mountain instantly.

The guards where stunned frozen when Farall said on word very clearly and loudly. "GO"

"Lock the animals up they are my new prize. Take the women to the girls' wing they are now mine. And Find me those two that left." The king ordered and instantly the soldiers were moving again.
