This is my first story for and I decided to try a Sailor Moon one for starters.
And Andrews is a creation of my own mind
Thanks to LordHalo for the review and suggestion, I'll try and make this chapter a bit longer.
Also be warned the much-dreaded flashback will be used so don't say I didn't warn you.
So Here's Chapter 10 enjoyThe scouts reappeared swiftly with their hurt friend in tow. " We're back at the shrine" Mars noted as the transformed back into their ordinary clothes, "It was the closer place I could think of" Pluto spoke before taking a quick look around to make sure they hadn't been followed.
"Quick lets get And inside" Ami said urgently her expression displaying her worry, Makoto and Setsuna slowly careful helped the young warrior help and looked at Rei to see where to head. "This way we have a spare room for guests" She said as and the others followed careful where they stepped not to make any noise.
Laying And careful on the floor while Ami placed a small pillow underneath his head and she slowly opened up his shirt to try and see how bad his wound was. " Rei could you get some blankets, hot water and bandages" Ami instructed her friend deciding that And was in no condition to move. "Sure Usagi, Minako you follow me and watch were your going meatball head last time you stepped on my foot" Rei told Usagi who normally would have stuck her tongue out at Rei but this was an emergency.
After the three had quickly gone to get what Ami asked she gazed down to see what damage there was. " His wound is deep" Setsuna noted as they carefully removed And's shirt, Ami let up a short gasp when she saw his body.
Indeed the shoulder had large gash, which had removed the stitches Ami had seen her mother put in at the doctor's but she noticed faint traces of earlier wounds some looked as they had just healed recently. "My god who could stand up scares like that" Makoto gasped from behind them as the others entered with the supplies. Quickly Ami grabbed towel and placed against the shoulder stopping the blood. "We'll handle this" Setsuna said as she ushered the others outside to wait, "we better let our parents know were we are" Minako said looking at her watch. "You can say your staying here for the night," Rei said so they did and soon sat waiting for Ami and Setsuna to let them know everything was okay.
An hour or so later the door of the room opened, "You can come in," Setsuna said before turning and taking a seat. Rei quickly went and brought some tea for everyone, "How is he?" Usagi asked noticing that Ami looked worn out.
Ami looked up smiled sadly " he's stable but we'll have to keep a close eye on him for a few days" the others nodded And it seemed to be resting quietly like he was in a trance like state.
"Now it is time I think for me to revel his story" Setsuna said taking a short sip of her tea and a deep breath.
" Long ago before I came the guardian of the time gates the forces of good and evil fought like titans and out of this war emerge the guardian line of which And is the 32nd".
Setsuna paused before continuing " His ancestor was the 1st and every son followed his farther with one goal to destroy evil wherever or whomever it is". Usagi held her hand up " Setsuna how did you know about this" she inquired curious to know, "Well your highness I have known the Andrews Family from his great grandfather and am also if he hasn't told you a partner in the foundation And now runs"
The scouts gasped in surprise Ami though asked another question, "Setsuna have you known And long?" Her mind wondering. "Yes Ami I have, after his farther died I helped keep an eye on him while his Aunt and Uncle raised him till he was old enough to become the guardian". Setsuna remembered back to time she first met And all those years ago.
(Okay here's that flashback I promised)
Setsuna stood waiting by the gates of time, for she new what an important time it was. " Setsuna my dear it's good to see you again," an old man said smiling as he appeared with a young boy who looked around gazing in wonder at the time gates behind her. " Master Lu it is good to see you again" she responded remembering the old man from her visits east".
" Setsuna this is my ward the 32nd guardian" he said as the boy nodded hello. "So you have begun training him?" Setsuna asked the old man nodded in reply, "he's quite cleaver and I have never seen anyone so determined since his farther and you know what he was like" Master Lu commented as the two of them looked at the boy. That day Setsuna explained to And her role as a Sailor Scout and all about the time gates. Soon he and his master departed back to the ancient temple he was being taught the ways of his forefathers Setsuna promising to visit next time on her travel"
(End of Flashback)
Setsuna soon came out of her memory and redressed the scouts. " I visited him every chance I could we write to each other at least once a month when we can" she told her follow Scouts.
" Who was that then who attacked us?" Makoto asked. "They were the opposite of And the dark guardians whose only purpose is to destroy life not protect it" Setsuna said. Usagi yawned she couldn't help herself as it was starting to get late, "we'd better get some rest," Minako said stifling her own yawn. " Yes we will talk more in the morning" Setsuna agreed the girls followed Rei to their sleeping quarters except Ami who lingered for a moment. "Thank you for saving my life" she whispered before placing a soft kiss on And's forehead and heading off to join the others.
Meanwhile
Zorn paced the room as Zella stood before him, " Crax is dead and the boy Andrews lives" he bellowed before angrily turning to face is sister his anger raging. "Ha Crax was a foul but that Andrews will die I promise you that" Zella defiantly boasted which made Zorn even more annoyed with her foolishness.
" What makes you think that I won't blast you to oblivion" Zorn shouted looking his sister right in the eyes, Zella stepped back she knew full well that her brother could. An underling enters not noticing the tension in the room. "Master" he whispered "an important message has come through to us" he said hoping not anger his master. "Pah I'll deal with you later sister dear" Zorn said before exiting the room. Zella breathed a sigh and promised herself that those meddling scouts and the guardian would pay for this dearly next time they met.
Zorn entered his private chamber, taking a seat as he waited for the message to come through. He had expected this but not so soon as the room seemed to chill with the presence of a greater evil. "Report Lord Zorn" a voice said chilling Zorn through to his soul, " My master the boy is here he destroyed Crax" Zorn spoke softly. "Indeed he has grown in strength," the voice said unconcerned about what happened to Crax. "Lord Zorn" he commanded, " yes Master" Zorn said standing to attention.
"Listen very carefully to what I am about to say" the voice said before descending into an evil laugh that made Zorn tremble even more.
