Brains, Blood & Bravery

Preface: This is the sequel to CLH. While the timeline in CLH is heavily distorted, I can assure you that the story will start during Vol. 2. In fact, Fou meets Akaitsuki while fighting or after he's beaten Teppei. Events might be changed or altered to suit the story.
Facies Mortuus"Oww, my head…" Moaned Perseus Silver Saint Akaitsuki as she opened her eyes, only to duck behind the rock to avoid the falling debris. Of all the inconveniences… The Perseus Saint had fallen into a fight. Literally. She was in a strange world, alone, disoriented, with no Cloth. She was also in an arid place, a desert, by the looks of it.
That pretty much summed up all she knew at the moment. Akaitsuki glanced towards the fight. Two men, one clearly a twenty-something adult while the second was much younger, sat astride on two creatures reminiscent to battle mecha. The first man, a spiky, longhaired blond, seemed to be sitting with crossed legs, reading a book.
At first it appeared to be a mechanized version of a wyvern, but she realized it was more birdlike so it had to be a phoenix. The latter, a brunette, was riding a winged horse. For some incomprehensible reason, they seemed very familiar… Suddenly, the fighters charged, and for a moment she heard something like, "Eat fist, punker!" as the brunette thrust out a fist with a green gauntlet. For a moment, it looked like victory.
Fou-sama, we have a 99.8 likelihood of victory... 'Where did that come from?' Akaitsuki thought. The blond man reached out with a rod of some sort and touched his opponent's—in Akaitsuki's viewpoint—shoulder lightly. A shockwave of electricity went through the youth, knocking him and his charger unconscious. Meanwhile, Lafine Fou had already sensed someone's presence as he was fighting Teppei and X.
When he finished his briefing, he addressed Je T'aime. "Do not leave yet. There's someone else here." "MY SENSORS HAVE ALSO DETECTED A FOREIGN HEAT SOURCE, FOU-SAMA. MY INSTINCT TELLS ME IT'S IRREGULAR, THOUGH…" Nodding, the Minami no Reishou got off and walked towards the spectator's hiding place. Looking over the rock, he saw a young girl.
She was pretty, about Karin's age with wavy, long brown hair reaching the base of her spine with red highlights the color of Je T'aime's coat, maybe darker. He couldn't really see her eyes at the moment; Fou was facing her back. "Aren't you coming along? You're obviously lost and wandered to this place somehow…" He trailed off as she turned.
Akaitsuki turned around to look at him, paled, and screamed. Some traits were different, but his face was a mirror image of Him. "Impossible… You can't be alive…" With that said, the Perseus Saint passed out; Fou managed to catch her and prevent her face being marred, wearing an expression of mild interest and confusion.
He carried her over to the Suzaku and placed the girl on the B'ts' back. "Je T'aime, take us home." "OF COURSE, FOU-SAMA." Replied Je T'aime's low bell-like feminine voice as she spread her great crimson wings to fly while grabbing Teppei and X with her talons. A funny thought occurred to him as they flew towards his church. 'Her eyes…they were silver…'
Meanwhile, somewhere in the Gobi Desert sandstorm, young brilliant scientific genius Takamiya Kotaro was being held hostage by the Koku Eliah.
