Chapter 3: Wavering Trials! The Beginning of an Epic Journey!
Saori and Seiya have arrived in Sanctuary. Where the Gold Saints and Seiya's friends were waiting for them.
"So, I guess that you all have gotten the memo about this new threat lurking around?" Seiya asked.
Aries Kiki nodded his head.
"Yes. The rumors have been spreading around." Kiki replied.
Libra Shiryu began to ponder a little bit.
"It seems that we're going to have a lot riding on our shoulders." Shiryu explained.
Gemini Integra nodded her head.
"Shiryu-san has a point." Integra said.
Taurus Harbinger began to smirk.
"Well, I am enjoyed breaking their bones!" Harbinger hollered.
Integra became rather annoyed with Harbinger.
"Is that all you think about, Harbinger?" Integra asked.
Aquarius Hyoga and Phoenix Ikki began to believe so.
Virgo Shun had a sweat on his face.
Then, Scorpio Sonia began to walk off, which caught the others' attention.
"Princess Sonia?" Leo Mycenae asked.
Sonia grew somewhat quiet.
"Now that things are going on a high note, I'm going to check if Lionet does not get into too much trouble." Sonia commented.
Sonia went to check on Souma.
"Those two sure do have a heated rivalry. Souma and Sonia." Seiya commented.
Saori simply agreed to Seiya's comment.
"We should prepared on how to the counter this new shade of darkness." Saori explained.
Seiya then noticed something was missing.
"Speaking of which...Kiki, where did Raki run off to?" Seiya asked.
Kiki began to warmly smile.
"Knowing Raki, she is off doing her own thing again. On wanting to see Kouga and the others." Kiki replied.
Raki; Kiki's apprentice was seen running off into the clear distance. Heading towards a grand adventure.
"Can't wait to see Kouga, Yuna, Aria and everyone else again! I especially can't wait to see Selene again! Going to have some regular girl time with my bestie!" Raki hollered.
Then, something had caught Raki's attention.
"Huh?" Raki asked.
Raki began to reach for the item.
"What...is this?" Raki asked.
With the eight Constellation Bracelets scattered across the different continents of the Arabian Peninsula, the Bronze Saints did not mind in separating in order to retrieved them before the god of war, Al-Quam could awakened from his slumber to unleashed great terror upon Earth.
The pair of Kouga and Yuna had arrived in the Arabian dessert. Currently on the verge in finding the Pegasus Constellation Bracelet and Aquila Constellation Bracelet.
"Never thought that the Arabian dessert would be treacherous." Kouga commented.
Yuna had instantly agreed.
"I just hope that the sand does not come through my hair." Yuna said.
Yuna had almost lost her balance as Kouga immediately clutched her by the arm.
"Gotcha. We got to stick together after all, Yuna." Kouga said.
Yuna began to slightly blush as she nodded her head.
"That's right. Of course, someone needs to keep you in line at all cost, Kouga." Yuna commented.
Kouga began to sheepishly scratch his head as Yuna simply gracefully smiled at her surprisingly amazing boyfriend.
Then, the young couple had spotted a camel a few kilometers away from them.
"A camel?" Yuna asked.
Kouga and Yuna nodded their heads at one another.
Kouga and Yuna immediately went into running to catch up to the camel.
"Hey! Wait up!" Kouga asked.
Moments later, Kouga and Yuna were riding on the camel.
Yuna could sense water nearby.
Yuna then slightly pulled onto Kouga's shirt.
"Hey, Kouga. It's..." Yuna said.
Kouga nodded his head.
"Water. Along with some shade." Kouga commented.
Kouga began to tap onto the camel's neck, telling it to go faster.
The camel immediately came into a halt, after seeing the palm trees.
The camel immediately kneels down.
Kouga immediately helped Yuna off of the hump.
"Thanks a lot!" Kouga hollered.
Kouga immediately ran off to the palm trees.
Yuna then walked up to the camel.
"Thank you very much." Yuna said, being polite as usual.
Yuna immediately patted the camel.
Yuna began to warmly smile at the camel.
"By the way I see it, you're a male, am I right?" Yuna asked.
The camel happily nodded his head.
Then, Yuna began to think of a good name for the camel.
"Then, how about that I referred to you as Asem?" Yuna asked.
The camel immediately licked onto Yuna's face as he took a liking to his new name.
"You like it? I'm glad that you do." Yuna commented.
Kouga began to smile at Yuna's outstanding kindness.
Kouga and Yuna immediately waved goodbye to Asem as he headed towards another direction.
"Goodbye, Asem! I hope that we could meet again!" Yuna hollered.
Kouga and Yuna then went to enjoy some leisure at the palm trees.
Yuna immediately took off her boots to soak her feet by the water.
"This feels so nice~!" Yuna hollered.
Kouga simply glared at Yuna with a smile on his face.
Yuna immediately took noticed of Kouga's expression.
"W-what?" Yuna asked.
Kouga shake his head.
"Nothing. It's just that is really outstanding on how beautiful you are." Kouga replied.
Yuna began to deeply blushed on well of a gentleman Kouga was to her.
"I was going to say the same thing too. But, about you." Yuna commented.
Kouga began to blush rather deeply.
"Still, I wonder on how everything will turn out once we find the bracelets." Kouga said.
Yuna began to sigh a bit.
"Don't lose hope. You're slowly turning into Emma-chan." Yuna commented, pulling a sarcastic maneuver.
Yuna began to put her boots back on as she went to Kouga's side by the palm trees.
"You should probably ignore that last sentence; I was trying to lift your spirits up. Point is...I would put everything on the line for you, Kouga." Yuna said.
Yuna immediately felt her heart pumping.
Kouga became rather touched with Yuna's words.
"You are the yang to my yin. The other part to my heart. And my amazing soul mate." Yuna commented.
Kouga immediately smiled.
"You have an incredible way with words, Yuna." Kouga commented.
Yuna began to blush in sheer embarrassment.
"Well, you just amazed me in every single way, Kouga." Yuna said.
Kouga and Yuna began to gaze at each other in a romantic manner.
Yuna began to sit onto Kouga's lap. Which caught Kouga by surprised.
"We have been through so many obstacles and stakes together. I hope that that formula does not change between us." Yuna said.
Kouga nodded in agreement.
"Same here." Kouga said.
Kouga and Yuna immediately went for a passionate kiss on the lips. Kouga began to grasp onto Yuna's rear end.
Kouga and Yuna immediately stopped exchanging each other's saliva as they began to touch foreheads.
"I love you, Kouga." Yuna said, smiling.
Kouga began to silently nod his head.
"I love you too, Yuna." Kouga said, smiling.
Yuna simply just smiled at Kouga.
The two then went for a short kiss on the lips.
"Hey. Can you keep a secret?" Yuna asked.
Kouga began to scratch his head.
"That depends." Kouga replied.
Yuna began to take a breather.
"Whenever I feel stress out, I turned to weed when it's necessary." Yuna commented.
Kouga became rather shocked.
"No way. You? The infamous Yuna?" Kouga asked.
Yuna sheepishly smiled.
"I only did it once though and that was it." Yuna replied.
Kouga couldn't believe that his own girlfriend actually consumes weed when she feels stressed out.
"So much for being the straight-class person that I know and loved." Kouga commented.
Yuna hardly thought that was not exactly true.
"Nobody had found out about it yet. So, since you ARE my boyfriend; I felt that I needed to tell you first." Yuna explained.
Kouga was still taking that revelation into his system.
"My reputation as the polite girl will be ruined. So, do not blab it out to anyone, Kouga! Not even to Aria or Souma!" Yuna said.
Kouga then nodded.
"Hey, you can trust me, Yuna. Actually, sometimes, I consume marijuana for the thrill of it." Kouga commented.
Kouga had immediately heard something afterwards.
"What's wrong, sweetie?" Yuna asked.
Kouga became slightly firm.
"I heard something." Kouga replied.
Yuna heard something as well.
"I do too." Yuna commented.
Kouga and Yuna then hurried their way to find the source.
It had led them to an ancient temple.
"An ancient temple?" Kouga asked.
Yuna began to realize it as she began to observe the sign. With the name of the Mahram Bilqis.
"The bracelets should be inside." Yuna commented.
Kouga nodded in agreement.
Therefore, the two were about to enter territory of the temple.
That is until something attacked them from out of the blue.
"That was a real close call. Are you alright, Yuna?" Kouga asked.
Yuna simply nodded her head.
"Yes. Just about, Kouga." Yuna replied.
Two unknown visitors had approached Kouga and Yuna.
"Who in the hell are you?" Kouga asked.
The two specimen began to smile.
"Eigrai." The orange Ifrit replied.
The magenta Ifrit then followed suit afterwards.
"Ilerai." The magenta Ifrit replied.
The two vicious Ifrits then attacked Kouga and Yuna.
The young couple began to fell hardcore.
"So, there were some bad djinns like Saori-san had mentioned after all." Kouga commented.
Yuna began to clutch onto her Aquila Superior Clothstone by her choker.
"Let's go, Kouga." Yuna said.
Kouga began to clutch tightly onto his Pegasus Superior Clothstone tied as a necklace.
"Right." Kouga said.
Kouga and Yuna's Pegasus and Aquila Superior Clothstones began to twirl around as they faded into the galaxies.
The stars began to form the constellations of the Pegasus and Aquila respectively.
Kouga and Yuna began to brace themselves.
The duo began to don their Cloths.
Kouga began to do some punches. While Yuna had engaged into a few kicking stances.
Kouga and Yuna were ready for battle.
The two Saints then engaged into a deadly battle with the two myth lore of Arabian culture.
- Malzar Shireo! – Eigrai hollered.
Eigrai began to unleashed a powerful source of extol darkness at Kouga.
Kouga began to fell hardcore.
"Kouga!" Yuna hollered.
Ilerai then cornered Yuna.
- Reiza Deadshot! – Ilerai hollered.
Ilerai began to freeze everything in sight as she unleashed a rather brutal attack on Yuna.
Yuna had joined Kouga in the impact of throw down.
"It's like that they are on a different from us." Yuna explained.
Ilerai began to mock the two Saints.
"If you're ready to call it quits, we won't stop you." Ilerai commented.
Eigrai agreed with Ilerai.
"You're not even worth of our time." Eigrai commented.
Kouga began to smirk.
"You think so?" Kouga asked.
The Ifrits became confused.
"Kouga?" Yuna asked.
Kouga became rather firm and serious.
"Yuna. Let's give them a taste of Ryusei." Kouga commented.
Yuna nodded in agreement.
"Thought we would go to that." Yuna said.
Kouga and Yuna's respective Cosmo colors began to consume them bit by bit.
Now, they had emerged into their great power of Ryusei.
Kouga and Yuna became on par with the two Ifrits.
Eigrai and Ilerai couldn't believe their eyes.
"Now, prepare for defeat!" Kouga and Yuna hollered in unison.
Kouga and Yuna began to concentrate very hard on their Cosmo.
The Ifrits were in for a big surprise.
"Shine..." Kouga said.
"Soar..." Yuna said.
The determined faces of Kouga and Yuna were turned on.
"Our Cosmo!" Kouga and Yuna hollered in unison.
Kouga and Yuna began to charge at Eigrai and Ilerai at will.
- Pegasus Ryusei Ken! – Kouga hollered.
- Divine Tornado! – Yuna hollered.
Kouga and Yuna used their ultimate attacks against the two Ifrits.
Eigrai and Ilerai were caught off-guard.
Eigrai began to grit his teeth.
"We won't forget this, Bronze Saints!" Eigrai hollered.
Eigrai and Ilerai then vanished in thin air.
Kouga and Yuna then returned back to their normal states as their Bronze Superior Cloths returned back inside of their Superior Clothstones.
"Now, let's get back to business." Kouga said.
Yuna nodded in agreement.
"Yes. Let's." Yuna said.
Kouga and Yuna continued their way towards the inside of the great Arabian temple.
Unknown to the two of them, a young god with the appearance of a young teenage boy going by the name of Wadd were quietly observing Kouga and Yuna.
"They seem like quite the powerful couple. Wouldn't want to fight them when they're angry." Wadd commented.
One of Wadd's pet snakes began to hiss.
"Now, Mehta. Our intention is to see their strength and hopefully, become friends with them." Wadd explained.
Kouga and Yuna began to explore the caverns of the ancient temple.
Then, they found something rather interesting.
"Antique tablets?" Kouga asked.
The tablets began to shine. Everything began to glow in place.
Kouga and Yuna became blinded by the visual effects.
Then, two mysterious pendants have appeared from out of the blue.
It was the Pegasus Constellation Bracelet and the Aquila Constellation Bracelet.
Kouga and Yuna immediately grabbed hold onto their bracelets.
"It's our Constellation Bracelets." Yuna commented.
Kouga nodded his head.
Kouga began to space off as he saw something from the ground.
"What's this? A shard?" Kouga asked.
The mysterious shard began to give Kouga its full attention. It was like that Kouga was drawn to it in some way.
Yuna began to walked way.
"Are you coming, Kouga?" Yuna asked.
Kouga began to put the shard away in his pants pocket, as he did not want Yuna to become too worried if she had found out.
"Y-yeah!" Kouga replied.
Kouga immediately catch up with Yuna.
Outside of the temple, Kouga and Yuna had encountered Raki.
"Hey, Kouga and Yuna!" Raki hollered, waving to her friends.
Kouga and Yuna became rather confused upon seeing Raki.
"Raki?" Kouga and Yuna asked in unison.
Raki ran to her friends in an excited manner.
"It's great to see you again, Raki. Always." Kouga said.
Raki began to grin with great delight.
Then, Raki remembered something.
"Oh yeah, almost forgot." Raki said.
Raki began to reach the inside of her backpack. Revealing the item that she had found earlier.
Kouga and Yuna were surprised.
"A lamp?" Yuna asked.
Raki nodded her head.
"It was a big turnaround for me actually." Raki replied.
Yuna began to continue to observe the lamp.
"I thought to myself; who should I take this lamp to amongst my older friends...?" Raki asked.
Raki began to smile.
"And then I pointed out to the very oblivious..." Raki said.
As Raki continued talking, Kouga began to slowly go towards his pants pocket, where lies the mysterious shard that is somewhat calling out to him.
Yuna then noticed Kouga was being tense like.
"Are you alright, Kouga?" Yuna asked.
Kouga was then snapped out from his trance.
"I'm fine. Nothing to be worry about, Yuna." Kouga replied.
Yuna simply smiled at Kouga.
Kouga then turned to Raki.
"We're heading towards Dubai next. Want to come with us, Raki?" Kouga asked.
Raki nodded her head.
"That will be a yes on my vote, Kouga! I might even see Selene and everyone else too!" Raki replied.
Kouga and Yuna nodded their heads at Raki.
Therefore, Kouga and Yuna alongside Raki continued their journey towards Dubai.
Kouga still had the thought of the mysterious shard in his mind.
Did you enjoy it?
