Dark times are ahead
"It is great that you decided to join us." Yaten said as they all smiled at the pack.
"Yeah and Corey might have a clue to what might be able to help us fight." Kyle said as he patted Corey on the back.
"Really? But my visions?" Rei said in a mixture of surprise and disbelief.
"They showed a world with no life but that might not be true." Corey said. A future can be changed just not the past and what I have seen might help." Corey added.
"But we shouldn't say it here." Michael said. "To open."
"We can go to our place." Suisei said as she helped get Midnight off of Koda. "I don't think Janet will mind. Plus she is working right now anyways." Suisei added.
The pack looked at Tracey who sighed and nodded. "Alright lead the way then." Tracey said.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"SHADOW FOX YOU TRAITOR!" Shukujo was yelling as she was now all alone. She was annoyed also because those memories she had taken were still not sorted out. IIt is almost like they are alive./I Shukujo thought to herself. IScreaming in my head. But that's impossible they are just memories not even real./I She added in thought.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So this is your guys' place?" Kyle said as they walked into Saitai's bedroom being as it seemed to be a bit bigger then Suisei's or Kawaira's bedroom.
They all found places to sit. While some sat on the bed and the floor or desk, those that didn't want to sit stood around. "Okay Corey what is it that you have?" Rei asked as she was one of the ones standing.
Corey was also standing up only because he was raised that when someone has to say something they stand up and where everyone could see him. Corey gave a small cough then spoke. "During the time that I was forcefully with Shukujo I noticed that after she absorbed the first person from earth she acted a bit different and was often holding her head almost like she had a headache. As she absorbed more memories it was becoming evident that she as starting to yell at them like they were alive." Corey took a deep breath and continued. "So I am starting to think that the memories are either overloading her mind or they are alive." Corey finished.
After he was done everyone was quiet until Taiki spoke. "So they are hurting her then?" He asked.
Corey shrugged. "They are doing something to upset her maybe they are hurting her." Corey responded.
"So if they are hurting her ……" Makoto said.
"Then there must be away we can use that against her." Artemis said.
"Maybe." Kawaira said as she was the one sitting on the floor leaning against the bed.
"Well, if we are going to do it then we will need a plan and a plan B should the first plan not work." Tracey said. Everyone looked at her in shock. "What? I think we need a couple of plans and maybe a bit of training." She added.
"Alright everyone in favor of this?" Koda said.
"YES!" They all said.
"Alright now let's get planning." Koda said. For nearly six hours they planned but it was not easy because they still did not know how strong Shukujo could be. But finally after they all planed things out they were ready to leave and get one good night sleep.
"Okay so first we try and draw the memories out, and if that doesn't work we fight her with everything we got, and if that does not do much good then we continue to fight and by Usagi some time to try and heal Shukujo, and if that doesn't work then …" Kyle said.
"Then we keep trying until we beat her." Makoto said. Everyone seemed more determined then before to fight and win.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While they slept Shukujo was already gathering more memories from the humans. Their screams went un heard because they were brought into her place. Each memory she took Shukujo got stronger. The memories of Kaze, Mannen, Mamoru, Hotaru, Setsuna, Michiru, and Haruka seemed to be more active almost like they were saying no.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning everyone got up way before the sun came up. Even Usagi had woken up on time. They all met at an old abandon construction site. "Okay let us not waste any time and start." Koda said.
No one argued, they all trained hard. It was first partners fighting, then it went to being one against three, then it went on to one against all. Everyone had just transformed to start practicing with the use of their powers when the sky turned to pitch darkness. "What…!" Koda said as he and his pack were going to become one. An eerily, creepy, high pitch laugh could be heard.
"Mawhahahahahahaha!"
"Shukujo." Seiya said. They all were looking around as the voice seemed to be coming from all around them
"Oh do you think you will come and stop me?" Shukujo said. "I have gotten stronger. I have more memories inside me now and I will use my new energy to destroy you one by one.
"You won't get the change to!" Koda said. "Ready guys?" He asked and everyone nodded.
"Oh I think I will. Take this!" She said.
A bright flash covered them and when the flash was gone all that was left was Corey.
"The others can have fun for a while. Or at least until I destroy you! TRAITOR!" Shukujo said.
