It was dark and cold. We were nearing the top of the earth.
Kunzite came over to me and kissed me. "I love you Ava. But now I have to cuff you."
I smiled at him. "It is alright. I trust you, Kunzite. You won't allow any harm to come to me."
He looked at me with such pain in his eyes as he cuffed me, and then I kissed him one final time.
Kunzite then resumed his position in front of me, pulling me along into the gateway of the Dark Kingdom.
Standing there guarding were the other three Shittenou. I recognized them because they all were wearing the same sort of uniform that Kunzite wore, only Kunzite's had a cape.
They all looked at me like I was a bug under their feet.
I trembled a little, but I remembered that I had to help Kunzite to save them.

Kunzite hated it. All of it. Having Ava as a prisoner, being back in the Dark Kingdom, and seeing his comrades still shrouded in darkness.
Ava promised she would try to save them. He hoped her gypsy magic would be enough.
"This is my human slave." Kunzite assured them.
"Of course." Zoisite grinned.
"What a choice in women you have." Jadeite added.
"Kunzite has always been strange." Nephrite smiled.
Beryl stepped into the throne room. "So you have returned, my dear Kunzite."
Beryl embraced him and kissed him. Kunzite hated it. He hated that Ava had to see this. He swore to himself that he would make it up to her...somehow. When his comrades were free of the darkness.
