Tuesday November 1st 1977 11:06 P.M. Lita covered her mouth as Amara finished telling her what happened. "Now I don't know where Samuel is." Amara said as the gun shots started to die down. Michelle started to notice that the news vans where starting to show up. "We need to get out of here."
Just then, Takia came around the corner. "Ok, that takes care of every one of Beryl's men."
"Where's Trista?" Amara said. "One of her men said she got knocked back by a grenade blast and fell down to the basement."
"Ok, Michelle, take Ray and Mina to the car and wait for us."
"Ok." Michelle said. "There's a underground passageway that leads to the other side of town. If we follow it, we can find Trista." Takia said. "Wait Takia." Lita said. "I think it would be best if we went to the other side of the passage way and wait for her there. The fire is getting to hot to go in." Takia nodded and him and his brothers started to walk back to their car on the other side of the building. "Ok, let's all get goin-"
*BOOOOOMMMM!* Everyone was knocked back a few feet as the building blew up. Knocking everyone out. *A few minutes ago with Samuel.*
I threw Zoisite across the room into the wall, breaking her arm. I started walking slowly as a small laugh started coming from me. "I'll n-never forgive you…" I said as my eye started twitching. Zoisite stood up and went for a left kick. I grabbed her leg and started to squeeze it. "I'll will k-kill them all…e-every last one." I said as I smiled. I broke Zoisite's leg as she screamed in pain. I then threw her across the room onto the floor. I started to walk over when someone came through the door.
"Samuel!" Trista yelled with her hand over her mouth. I looked behind me for a second before walking over to Zoisite who was coughing up blood. Trista saw Serena and ran over to her.
"Miss Serena?" She said looking over her body. "T-Trista?" Serena said. Trista started to try and get her out of the cuffs. "There's no time. Listen, this whole place is going to blow any minute. We have to snap Samuel out of his trance and get out of here." Serena said looking over at me, as I was now chocking Zoisite.
"I'll make sure you suffer for what you did…" I said chocking her more. Zoisite was gasping for hair as Trista looked on in horror. "Is that Samuel?" She said to herself. "N-no, Samuel would never do that. Samuel cares for every girl on earth." Trista started to cry as a faint light started to shine from her necklace.
Serena watched Trista as she started to cry more. Trista started to remember the times she spent with me. "Samuel, why are you doing this? This isn't you, please stop it…" Trista's necklace started to glow more "Just a little more Trista…" Serena said to herself.
"I don't believe it, all those people...you k-killed them?" Trista started to shake as the visions of all the dead body's she saw started to come into her mind. "No…n-no." Trista said shaking her head. "Samuel…" Trista said softly. I pulled out a bloody knife as I looked Zoisite dead in her eyes. "Samuel!" Trista said as her necklace started to shake. "Dieeee!" I yelled with a smile on my face as I swung the knife down at Zoisite. "SAMUELLLL!" Trista screamed as she started to be engulfed in light.
I Turned and looked on as Trista started to change, along with her clothes. The light shine through the whole tunnel as it faded away after a few seconds. Trista was now standing there in a black sailor outfit with elbow light gloves and black boots. A scepter materializes from thing air and landed into her hand as a P shown from her forehead before turning into a tiara.
Trista opened her eyes and looked over herself with tears still falling down her face. "Trista, stop Samuel, hurry!" Serena yelled as more of my veins started to turn black.
"Samuel! Please stop this!" Trista yelled as I kept looking at her. I turned around and started to raise his hand again. "They will all pay for what they did…" I said looking at Zoisite who was now unconscious from lack of air.
"Samuel! I know what your pain feels like, and I know that it won't go away if you kill her!" Trista said walking over to me crying. "This isn't you Samuel! You're not like this! Snap out of it!" Trista yelled as she was now right behind me. I started to shake as Serena watched. Trista hugged me from behind and started to cry on his shoulder.
"Samuel…I was raped too." I froze in place and got big eyed.
"I know what it's like. That feeling…the pain." Trista said crying more. "I wanted to kill the person who did it to me. Every day I planned what I was going to do. I worked my way up within the ranks of the police so that when I made it to the top, I could kill him and I could get away with it. Then the day came when I was going to do it…He was going to show up to my office and I was going to kill him there…but something happened….you came into my office instead."
Trista said as I dropped the knife. "I don't know why, but when I saw yo...I felt something I hadn't felt in a long time…the thing that was missing from my heart since that day. You saved me Samuel…you saved me from doing something that would have ended me…so please, come back to us…come back to me…" I started to cry as the veins started to fade away a little.
"Samuel..." Trista whispered into my ear. I tried to say something but passed out in her arms instead. Trista let out a small smile as she held me close. Serena smiled. Trista picked me up and put me on her shoulder and walked over to Serena. "Good job…Sailor Pluto." Serena said smiling at her. "S-sailor Pluto?" Trista said. "Yes, that is who you are…from all those years ago. Do you remember?" Serena said. Trista shook her head as a few visions flashed threw her mind.
"I'm not sure…I remember something but…" But before she could finish what she was saying, Zoisite pulled out a remote and started to laugh. "Ha ha ha!…Beryl, do you hear me?! This is for you!" Serena and Trista looked on in shocked as she held the remote above her head.
"Pluto! Your scepter!" Serena yelled as Trista looked at it for a second. "Yes…that's it…I remember now…" Trista said holding onto me. "HA ha haaaa!' Zoisite yelled and she pressed the button. "Time freeze!" Pluto yelled slamming her scepter onto the ground. A light pulse shot out as everyone stopped moving.
Time froze for a few seconds as Pluto looked around. She bashed the chains off of Serena and started to run down the hallway carrying both me and Serena.
Pluto ran at full speed for a few seconds before slowing down a little, gasping for air. "Almost there…" Pluto said as she could feel time returning. After a whole 33 seconds of running, time whore off as a shock wave rushed out of the room, and the whole building blowing up.
Pluto could see the fire rushing down the hallway towards them as she reached the door. She kicked it opened and ran up the stairs and dove off to the right as the flames came rushing out. Pluto laid there for a few seconds catching her breath as Serena came to.
"You did it Pluto…" Serena said smiling. "You saved me and Samuel." Serena said slowly standing up. Pluto stood up, lifting me into her arms and looked around. "We have to be about a half a mile away from the factory." Pluto said looking back at Serena. "We better get off the streets. The whole city is going to be on alert for a few hours after that explosion." Serena said looking around.
"So what do we do?" Pluto said looking down at Serena. "We have to get out of the city…Beryl is going to unleash her plan at midnight."
"What plan?" Pluto said. "She's going to take control of the city." Serena said as she slowly started to walk away. "What? How?" Pluto said following Serena.
"She has placed explosives under the city, and that midnight, She's going to set them all off, destroying almost all of the city and killing hundreds." Serena said looking around the corner.
"But how?" Trista said. "The drills she stole. She has been drilling tunnels under the city and planting bombs." Serena said stopping for a second.
"But where do we go then to get away?" Trista said. "There's an old castle outside of town in the forest that will keep us safe for the time being." Serena said turning down the street. "We will head for my house and call the others and meet up." Serena said looking behind her at Pluto. "Serena…just who are you?" Pluto said looking at her.
Serena didn't say anything. "When everyone is together. I will tell you all the truth." Serena said walking down the street. Pluto followed her, hoping everyone else was ok…
Tuesday November 1st 1977 11:31 P.M. Amara came to as she looked around. The fire was coming closer to her and the others. Amara looked over to see Michelle and Lita coming too. "Oww…" Lita said putting her hand to her head.
"Are you ok?" Michelle said. "Ya, I'm fine." Amara said standing up. She looked at Mina and Ray who were still knocked out. "Michelle, Lita, Get Mina and Ray. We need to get out of here before the fire gets closer." Amara said picking her gun up.
Michelle picked up Mina, and Lita picked up Ray. "What about Samuel and Trista?" Michelle said following Amara. "Don't worry. I'm sure they made it out." Amara said walking to the cars. Michelle and Lita followed behind, limping a little as they made their way to the cars before anyone saw them.
Michelle and Lita put Ray and Mina in the back of Amara's car. Amara walked over to the swat van and tried to use the radio. "Dam, it got shot." Amara said tossing the radio onto the floor. "So what now?" Lita said. "Beryl will have every one of her men looking for us after tonight. So we need to go somewhere she won't know where to find us." Everyone thought for a second. "What about Amy's summer house?" Michelle said. "Good thinking, and while we are there. She can check on us and make sure where ok." Amara said getting into the driver's seat. Michelle got into the passenger seat and Lita got into the back with Ray and Mina as Amara started the car and started to drive to Amy's house.
*back with Serena and Trista* Serena walked up to her house and opened the door. Pluto walked in behind her. "Don't turn on any lights." Serena said lighting a candle. "Put Samuel on my bed and come back." Serena said walking into the kitchen. Pluto walked to Serena's bedroom and laid me down on the bed and walked back to the living room.
Pluto was gasping for air by this point. "I don't feel so good…" Pluto said as she fell to her knees. A small light shown from her chest. After a few seconds. Pluto's clothes went back to normal and her scepter disappeared. "W-what?" Trista said looking at her hands. "Don't worry. You just used up all of your energy." Serena said walking back out with some water. She handed Trista a cup and sat down at the table. "Thanks." Trista sitting down at the table and drinking the whole cup.
"We don't have much time." Serena said looking at the clock. "We need to find out where the others are at so we can get out of here." Serena said taking a drink. Trista stood up and started to walk to the phone. "I'll call their houses and see if anyone is home." Trista said dialing Amara's number.
Serena got up and walked to her room to grab a few things.
*Back with Amara* Amara pulled up to Amy's house and parked the car and got out. Michelle and Lita helped Ray and Mina get out of the car, Amara knocked on the door. After a few seconds, the door open. "Amara?" Amy said looking at her. "Hey Amy, Sorry that this is such short notice, but we need your help right now." Amy looked behind Amara and saw everyone was limping and had blood on them. "Of course, come in." Amy said moving over and letting everyone in. "The bathroom is right down the hall." Amy said grabbing some cloths. "Wash the blood off and sit on the couch and I'll take a look." Amy said filling a cup with water.
Everyone went into the bathroom and quickly washed their faces and walked back and sat down next to Amy on the couch. "So I take it the explosion that I heard and all the cop cars racing by where you're doing?" Amy said as she started to wipe Mina's wounds clean. "You could say that." Amara said looking down at the ground. "What happened?" Amy said. Amara started to tell Amy what happened as Amy started to clean everyone up. *A few minutes later*
"I see…" Amy said putting a Band-Aid on Lita's arm. "Now we don't know where they are." Amara said sighing. "Well all of you are going to be ok. Just a few cuts and whiplashes." Amy said walking back to the sink. "Thanks for helping us Amy." Lita said. "It was nothing. Like Mina said, we are all in this after all." Amy said smiling. Everyone smiled back as Amy's phone started to ring.
"Who is calling me at this time of night?" Amy said walking over and picking up the phone. "Hello?" Amy said. "Amy? Its Trista."
"Trista?" Amy said. Everyone looked over at Amy as Amara got up and walked over. "Is everyone at your house?"
"Ya, they showed up a little while ago."
"Ok, can you put Amara on the phone?"
"Sure, here she is.' Amy said handing the phone over to Amara. "Hey Trista."
"Amara listen, we don't have a lot of time left. Get everyone together and meet us at the police station. We have to get out of the city."
"Why?" Amara said. "I don't have time to explain. Just do it. Hurry." Trista said hanging up.
"What did she shy?" Lita said. "She said to get everyone and meet her at the police station. We have to get out of the city."
"What? Why?" Michelle said. "I don't know, but I can tell she meant it. Ok everyone. Take a quick drink of water. Go to the bathroom and get in the car. Where leaving." Amara said walking over to the door. Everyone nodded and went to the bathroom.
After another minute, everyone was ready. "Amy. You need to come with us too." Amara said opening the door. "I know. I can tell something is up." Amy said walking over with a bag of clothes in it.
Everyone walked out and got into Amara's car. It was a little tight, but it would be fine till they got to the station. Amara started the car and started to drive to the police station. Hoping everyone was ok…
Tuesday November 1st 1977 11:52 P.M. Trista pulled up to the police station and saw Amara parked in front. She pulled up to her and rolled down the window. "Amara, follow me. Where almost out of time!" Trista yelled. "What do you mean?" Amara said. "The whole city is going to blow up!"
"What!?" Amara yelled. "Hurry! We have only a few minutes!" Trista yelled as she started to floor it down the street. Amara followed close behind her as they started to make there why out of the city.
*Somewhere under Chicago* "Beryl, everyone is now ready." Jadeite said handing beryl a remote. "Has Zoisite made it back?"
"No." He said looking down. "Then she was defeated as well." Beryl said arming the remote. "With this remote, are true first step is now complete. Everything that we have worked towards for the last few years will now come to past." Beryl said smiling. "After I press the button, have all of our men storm the governor's house." Beryl said looking back at jadeite. "Yes my lady." jadeite said turning around and walking away.
Beryl looked at an old picture of her and a man standing next to each other. "Don't worry my love, soon we will be together again..." Beryl said holding the button in front of her and…
*Back with Amara and the others* Trista and Amara just got outside of town when a huge explosion and shock wave slammed against the cars, sending them flying over to the side of the street. The cars almost flipped over but was saved by a tree. Everyone held onto their head as Everyone slowly started to climb out.
"Is everyone ok?" Amara said looking at everyone. Everyone nodded as Mina walked over to the railing and looked down at the city in the distance. "Oh my god…" Mina said butting her hands up to her mouth.
Amara looked on in awe as she city she grew up in was now nothing but a huge fire ball. It was now a literal, hell on earth…
"Is this what you were talking about Trista?" Amara said looking back at her. "Ya…" Trista said holding herself. "I never would have thought she would go this far…" Ray said looking back. "You would be surprise what Beryl will do to bring back the person she loves." A quiet voice said from behind them. Everyone looked back as Ray, Amy and Mina almost fainted at the sight of Serena.
"S-Serena?" Mina said about to cry. "Hey Mina." Serena said smiling at Mina. Mina, Amy and Ray walked over and hugged her, almost snapping her in half. "Hey, don't brake me." Serena said laughing a little bit. "Sorry. I'm just so happy that you're ok." Mina said wiping away a few tears. Lita walked over and smiled. "It's good to have you back."
"Oh I'm sorry, I don't believe We met.' Serena said looking at her. "The names Lita." Lita said smiling. "Hey Lita." Serena said smiling back. Just then, Mina got big eyed. "Wait, is Samuel with you?" Serena Looked at Trista who looked away. "What? Mina said. "Ya he's fine. It's just…"
"Just what?" Mina said looking around. "Something happened to him." Trista said looking away. "What happened?" Mina said getting worried. Mina walked over to the car and opened the back door. Mina saw me laying across the seats with a few black veins still on me. "Sammy?" Mina said as I didn't move.
"Tell me what happened." Mina said turning to Serena. "Mina, I'll tell you what happened, but right now we have to get out of here."
"Where do we go?" Michelle said. "There's an old castle in the forest. We will stay there for now. It's about a 20 minute drive. Once we get there. We can rest and go over what happened." Serena said looking at everyone. Everyone nodded as they started to get into their cars.
Mina stood there still looking at me. "Mina?" Amara said from the car. "I'm gonna ride with Serena and Trista to the castle." Mina said looking at me. Amara looked at Trista. "Ok Mina." Amara said hoping back in her car and closing her car door.
Mina hopped into the back and pulled me into her arms as they started their drive to the castle, wishing this would all be over…
Wednesday November 2nd 1977 12:31 A.M. Amara followed Trista down an old dirt road. Everyone was looking around in the dark. "So are there any bears around here?" Ray said. "Only brown bears and wolfs." Amy said. "Great, that makes it so much better." Ray said rolling her eyes.
After a few more twists and turns, Trista and Amara pulled into a clearing and saw a castle. Everyone was in awe as they pulled up next to it. "This is incredible." Trista said parking next to a tree. Everyone started to get out as Trista and Serena walked over to Amara and Michelle. "I never thought I would see a castle in my lifetime." Amara said looking around. "I'll show you the inside and the rooms." Serena said grabbing a few bags from the back of the trunk. "Amara, can you carry Samuel inside?" Serena said looking back at Mina holding me. Mina was half asleep as she tried to pick me up. Amara nodded and walked over to Mina.
"Mina, I'll carry Samuel inside ok?" Amara said smiling. Mina nodded and handed me over to Amara. Amara started to carry me as Mina, Ray, Amy, Lita, Michelle and Trista followed behind with a few bags. Serena pushed opened the wooden door and started to light a few candles.
The inside was huge with tall pillars holding up the ceiling. Old paintings with girls on them hung form the walls next to the open windows. Everyone followed Serena down a few hallways before reaching the barracks. Serena opened the door as everyone walked in.
"We will sleep in here for tonight. Tomorrow we will sort the room out for everyone." Serena said lighting a few candles as everyone put their bags down. Amara walked over to an open bed and laid me down. Amara looked at me as Serena walked over.
"What happened to Samuel Serena?" Amara said looking over to her. "…We can talk about it in the morning ok?" Serena said smiling and rubbing her eyes. Amara knew everyone was tired. Amara nodded and put a blanket over me as she walked over to another bed and sat down. Mina, Ray, Amy and Lita fell onto their beds and where out within a minute.
Amara looked over at them and smiled. "Still just kids." Amara said as Michelle crawled into her own bed. "The same could be said for you." Michelle said smiling. "What do you mean?" Amara said as Trista came out of the bathroom. "The way you always sleep with a night light on seems to come to mind." Trista said with a cocky smile on her face. Amara blushed a little and got into bed without saying anything. Michelle giggled as she blew out the candle.
"Where's Serena sleeping?" Trista said pulling her blankets up. "She's right across the hallway in the other room." Michelle said closing her eyes. "Ok. Good." Trista said closing her eyes too. "Goodnight." Trista said. "Goodnight." Michelle said. "Night." Amara said closing her eyes as well. And in only 6 minutes, Everyone was fast asleep. dreaming of a better world…
Tuesday, November 2nd 1977 9:49 A.M. I slowly opened my eyes to the sound of raindrops hitting the window. My head was a little tipsy but other than that, I seemed fine. I tried to move but something was lying next to me. I looked over to see a sleeping blonde laying in my bed next to me. I started to blush as she laid there softly breathing. My heart rate went up as she let out a small moan before cuddling up more to me.
I tried to move away a little, but I fell off the bed with a loud thunk. Everyone started to wake up now. "Mmm what's all the noise over?" Ray said rubbing her eyes. Ray, Amy, Michelle, Trista, Amara and Lita all got up and stretched. "Can't a girl sleep witho-" Lita said looking over at my bed. "M-mina!?" What are you doing in Samuel's bed!?" Lita yelled, getting up and blushing more.
"And it begins." Ray said rolling her eyes, taking a drink of water. "This doesn't bold well." Amy said putting on her socks. Mina came too and gave out a yawn. "Mmmm what a nice dream." Mina said looking over to Lita. "Mina, answer me!" Lita said walking over to my bed. "Hmm?" Mina said looking over to me on the floor. "Oh, morning Sammy." Mina said smiling at me. "Mina, why are you in my bed?" I said rubbing my head. "Silly, boyfriends and girlfriends always sleep together." Mina said smiling.
"PSSHHHHHH!" Ray spat out her water and started to cough as Lita started to stutter. "W-w-w-what?" Lita said shacking a little bit. "Minaaaa." I said in a low tone as I slowly stood up. Aww come on Sammy, don't be so modest." Mina said blushing and holding onto my arm. I started to blush as everyone looked at me.
"Well it seems someone had a good night's sleep." Michelle said putting her hand under her chin. "Michelle! Nothing happened!" I said pulling away from Mina's arm. Michelle giggled as Ray stood there, lost in thought blushing. Just then, Serena came through the door.
"Good morning everyone." Serena said smiling. Everyone looked at Serena for a second. "What?" Serena said looking back. "Oh nothing." Trista said. "It's just where still getting use to you being back with us." Serena smiled. "Thanks. Anyway, Breakfast is almost done. So everyone wash up in the bathroom and meet me in the dining hall in 20 minutes." Serena said closing the door.
Everyone was up as we started to head to the bathroom. We walked into the room and saw eight stalls. "Oh nooo." Mina said holding onto my arm. "Looks like me and Sammy are going to have to share oneeee." Mina said winking at me. Lita got mad and walked over and grabbed my other arm. "Well maybe Samuel wants to share one with me." Lita said blushing. Mina made a pouty face as they both started to stare at each other.
I took a big sigh as Michelle laughed. "Ahh, young love." Michelle said walking into a stall. "It's ok. I'm going to wait for you to get done." I said blushing and walking out of the room. "Now look what you did." Mina said looking at Lita. "Me. you're the one who…" Mina and Lita started to argue with each other for a few seconds as everyone went into the stalls. Still a little sleepy,
I waited for one of them to get done so I could go in. after a few minutes, someone walked out. "Hey, Samuel. You can use my stall now if you like." Amy said drying off her hair. "Thanks Amy." I said smiling and walking in. I started to blush as I looked around me. Time seem to freeze for a moment as a thought ran through my head. "E-everyone is naked and only blocked by a piece of w-wood." I said to myself as I could feel my veins started to twitch. I ran into one of the stalls and closed the door. The stalls where like bathrooms, it had the bottoms cut out so you could see the others peoples feet. My heart beat was at 120 as I looked down to see someone's cute feet standing there as water and soap ran down there feet and into the drain.
"Damit Samuel! Pull yourself together!" I said shacking my head and looking back up. I slowly started to take my shirt and pants off as I turned on the water. The steam from the shower fogged up the air around me so I could not see much of anything. I started to clam down as the water ran down my body. I started to think to myself what happened last night. For some strange reason, the last thing I remembered was talking on the walkie-talkie with Beryl when she said…
I started to clutch my chest as a rush of pain ran through my body. I leaned against the wall gasping for air as I tried to calm myself down. "That's right…" I said to myself. "I know what they did to Mina…" I said making a fist. Then something happened that never happened before. I heard a voice. "I will kill them all...every last one." I slowly gave a small smile as I was snapped out of my thought by a voice coming from the hall.
"Hey everyone. Food is ready!" Serena said. The water started to turn off as I stood there wondering what just happened. "Who was that voice I heard?" I said to myself. After calming down, I washed my hair and turned the water off. I looked under the stalls to make sure everyone was gone before I opened the door. I got out and dried off and got dressed. After tying my shoes. I walked out the door to see Amy walking down the hall.
"Oh Samuel, I was just coming to get you." Amy said. "Your food is getting cold. You better hurry."
"Thanks Amy, I'm coming." I said following Amy down the hall. After a few more turns, we came to a dining hall as everyone was sitting at the long table. Serena was sitting at the front, Trista was sitting at the end, Michelle, Amy and Amara where sitting down on the left side. And Lita and Mina where sitting down on the other side with a open chair in between them.
"Hey everyone." I said walking over. "Hey Sammy." Mina said looking at me and smiling. I sat down and looked at everyone. I felt so relieved at everyone was finally together. I looked down at my plate and picked up my fork and start to eat with everyone.
Everyone was talking with each other for a few minutes before I said something. "Serena?" I said looking down the table. Everyone looked at me. "Yes Samuel?"
"...I know time is not on our side at the moment, So I think it's time now that you told us everything…" I said looking down the table at her. Everyone looked at Serena. Serena knew it was time to let them know. Serena took a drink of water and took a deep breath.
"Your right Samuel…It's time you all knew." Serena said looking down at the food. Serena reached into her shirt and pulled out a necklace made out of a crystal and held it up. We were all taken back by it.
"Do you know what this is?" Serena said looking at me. "A talisman." I said. "Yes…I'm sure you know the story of how these came to be. But for everyone else, I'll give you the short version." Serena said sitting the crystal down on the table.
"...A long time ago, a woman named Beryl fell in love with a man. This man was the ruler of all the middle east. He only cared about two things, beryl and power. Him and Beryl started to plan on how to take control of the whole world. Beryl and her now husband started killing anyone who didn't worship them. At first it was just a few small towns. But soon, Entire cities where seat on fire from the war they brought. It seemed no one could stop them. Beryl and her husband ruled most of the earth for many years. Causing fear and hell wherever they went. Always wanting more power. So nine women took it upon themselves to stop her and her husband before the world was taken over by darkness.
They knew they needed help. So every night they started to pray for help. Day after day. Week after week. Month after month they prayed. They loved the earth so much that one night. Something happened. Nine bright lights fell from the sky and landed near them. When they walked over to the lights. The lights started to shine. And in the flash of an eye, they were all transformed into Sailor Scouts.'"
Everyone looked at each other for a few seconds. "And after that moment, they knew they could save their world. With their new powers, they started fighting back. Each Sailor Scout was given control over one of the natural elements of earth, the 1st one was granted the power to control water." Serena said looking at Amy. "The 2nd one was granted control over the life force energy of people." Serena said looking at Mina. "The 3rd one was granted control over the life force energy of the moon." Serena said looking down at her crystal. "The 4th one was granted control over fire." Serena said looking at Ray. "The 5th one was granted control over lightning." Serena said looking at Lita. "The 6th one was granted control over death and rebirth." Serena said looking down at the table. "The 7th one was granted control over the sky." Serena said looking at Amara. "The 8th one was granted control over the power of the sea." Serena said looking at Michelle. "And the 9th one was granted control over time." Serena said smiling at Trista. Trista just sat there looking at her necklace...lost in thought about what Serena was saying.
"The war was long. Many more lives were lost before it was all over...but in the end they were able to kill the king and the queen...but they knew the queen would not stop till she had her revenge. Just before she died, she swore one day to return and take back this world. The sailor scouts became too weak from fighting and knew the queen would one day have her revenge on them. Whether it be her children's, children's children." Serena said looking over us.
"She would come again a long time after they died...so the nine talismans where hidden from everyone so one day, when the queen would be reborn again, someone would be able to stop her...and only the girls who love this world very much and all have the one thing in this world that they all want to protect...would there power be granted to them..." Serena took a said as everyone was quiet.
"I know this all must be a lot for you to take in." Serena said. Mina smiled at Serena. "Don't be silly Serena. We all know it's true." Serena was surprised at how well they were all taking it. "After seeing myself transform, I know it's all true." Mina said holding her necklace. "And even though we haven't transformed yet, I know we will soon." Ray said smiling. Serena looked around the table and saw everyone smiling at her. Serena got a little chocked up and smiled back. "Thank you everyone." Serena said.
"So is that the end of the story?' Amara said. "No, there's still one more person we need to talk about…Samuel." Serena said looking over at me. I looked at Serena as she looked at me with sad eyes. Mina put her hand on mine as everyone was listening.
"They were not the only ones fighting against Queen Beryl during the war. There was another group fighting with them…the assassins." Serena said. I looked up at Serena as everyone listen closely. "Even though they had the power to stop Beryl. They didn't know how to win or fight a war. Beryl had over 2 million solders at her beck and call. And they were only nine girls. They couldn't do it on their own. But luckily they had friends. The assassins.
The assassins have been around for thousands of years. Watching over the people, making sure life flourished. They had over a million assassins in there guild. And among them. Was the most powerful assassin who ever lived. His name was…Ezio Auditore."
My heart rate went up a little as Mina held onto my hand. "I've heard of him in stories." Amy said. "I didn't think he was real." Amy said looking down. "He was very real." Serena said looking around. Ezio was sometimes called humanity's strongest solder. Everyone in the brotherhood knew his name. All his life he fought to protect what was most precious in this world. And what was even better, he was there friend.
Soon, Ezio was fighting along the Sailor scouts side in battles. Even though he was only a man. He could kill 40 men by the time the sailor scouts could kill 20." Serena got up and walked over to a small chest and opened it up and pulled out something wrapped up in a cloth. "A assassins main weapon was something called the hidden blade." Serena said unfolding the cloth. "The blade was hidden under the wrist of the assassin, and when they needed it out, all they had to do was flick their wrists and it would slide out." Serena said holding up a small gadget.
From the table, It didn't seem like much. "It would take years for an assassin to master it. But not only did Ezio master it. He mastered how to use two." Serena said pulling another one out and setting it next to the other on the table. Everyone looked at them as I started to get a small headache. "And so Ezio fought alongside the sailor scouts, But when the war ended, so did his own life."
Everyone got big eyed. "What happened to him?" Ray said. "I don't know how the whole thing went down, but Ezio died after fighting the Beryl and her husband." Serena said looking over to me. "Ezio killed Beryl's husband with is dying breath. And it was on that day that Beryl swore she would have her revenge."
I swallowed as I started to think to myself. "So Samuel…is ezio's grandchild?" Amy said. Serena looked over to me. "I don't know." Serena said. "How do you not know?" Michelle said. "There is one way to tell for sure." Serena said standing up. "After Ezio died. The sailor scouts enchanted his blades with his blood. So only someone related to him can use this blades." Serena said walking over to me with the bands in her hands.
"What? Are those ezio's blades!?" Lita said. Everyone looked on in awe as Serena stood next to me. "I believe they are. But there's only one way to find out…Samuel, will you stand up?" Serena said looking at me.
I stood up and faced Serena as she handed me one of the blades. "Lift up your hands and I'll put them on you." Serena said holding up one of the blades. I held out my arms as Serena started to strap the blades under my wrist. "How does it feel?" Serena said. "It feels fine." I said twisting my hand. "So how does Samuel make it come out?" Amara said. "I'm not sure myself." Serena said putting the other one on my other hand.
"No one ever wrote down how the enchantment worked." Serena said looking over me. I turned my wrists and looked at the blades. I could feel something coming from them. But I didn't know what. "With time, I know you will find a way to draw them out Samuel." Serena said smiling as she walked back to her chair. "So the talismans belong to us then?" Michelle said. "Yes, they belong to us." Serena said.
"My family has watched over the talismans sense the war happened. The talismans where passed down from family to family. Making sure no one knew about them. And I can say for the first time in my life, that the talismans have reached the next Sailor scouts." Serena said smiling at everyone. "But Beryl still has three of them." Amara said. Serena smiled and reached into her skirt. "You mean these?" Serena said holding up two talismans. "What!?" Everyone said. "Serena, how did you get them!?" Trista said standing up.
When Beryl was tying me to the pipe in the basement, I picked these off of her." Serena said smiling. And I believe these belong to you two." Serena said looking over at Amara and Michelle. Both of them looked on as Serena stood up and walked over to them. "Amara." Serena said handing her one. "Michelle." Serena said handing Michelle the other one. Both of them looked at them as Serena continued to talk. "So now everyone has their talisman." Mina said. "All but one." I said looking up at Serena.
"Serena, who does the last Talisman belong to?" Serena looked away for a moment. "I'm not sure."
"What do you mean?" I said crooking my head. "Back in the sixties, Beryl found the family who was watching over it. A Mother and Father, who had one little daughter. One night when they were all sleeping, she stormed the house with a few of her men and she killed the mother as the father ran away with their daughter in his arms. And I don't know what happened to them after that…" Serena said. "Poor girl…" Mina said looking down.
"As long as Beryl has that Talisman, the sailor scouts won't be whole." I sat there thinking to myself when a terrible thought came into my mind. "Serena!" I said standing up. "What Samuel?" Serena said a little worried. "She has the talisman that can bring people back from the dead right?"
"Yes. Why?"
"…Who's the one person she wants to rule the world with?" I said looking at her. "Oh no…" Serena said putting her hand up to her mouth. "Her husband…" Serena said. Everyone was worried.
"But She doesn't even have his body, right?" Amy said. "Amy…who was the mummy you were looking at, at the museum that one day when you where with us?" I said looking at Amy. "It was Kin-…" Amy stopped talking as she put her hands up to her mouth. Everyone went white in the face. "Beryl's husband is in the museum!" I said slamming my fist down on the table. "She's going to use the talisman to revive him!" I said grinding my teeth. "And if that happens, She really will be able to take control of the world…" I said looking down at the table. "But she can't use its power, right?" Michelle said. "She's not a sailor scout so she can't use it." Serena thought to herself for a second.
"As Much as I hate to say it. Beryl might have found a way to use it." Serena said looking away. "When I was being held in the basement, every once in a while, I could hear her talking with someone about how to unlock the talismans full power. And Before last night, she said she found a way." Everyone looked around. Not sure what to say. "So, what now?" Ray said. "…We get ready to fight." I said standing up. Everyone looked at me.
"You guys are the sailor scouts. You stopped her before, and you're going to stop her again." I said smiling. "Samuel…" Serena said. "For now, Beryl has the lead. But soon, we will retake back our home." I said nodding at everyone. "So starting today. We start training to unlock all of your sailor scouts power, and when we are ready. We will finish what our grandparents started." No one said anything for a few seconds, then Amara smiled and stood up.
"Well it's not like I have anything better to do." Amara said smiling at me. Michelle stood up too. "If you're going to fight, I better fight to so you don't get hurt." Michelle said smiling with her eyes closed. Trista stood up and looked over. "This is my home too. And I'll be dammed if some bitch is going to take it away from me." Trista said. Mina stood up as well. "Well I'll train too so I can protect Sammy." Mina said holding onto my arm. Lita and Ray stood up too. "I'll Train to keep Samuel safe as well." Lita said holding onto my other arm blushing. "I'll fight too…for my grandfather." Ray said smiling. I looked over at Amy. "Well Amy?" Amy stood up and smiled. "Well If Beryl takes control of the world, no one will be able to study, and I won't allow that to happened." Amy said smiling.
"Then its settled." I said looking over at Serena. "From this moment on, The sailor scouts are back!" I said putting my hand out. Everyone put their hand in and smiled. I couldn't help but smile, knowing all of my friends where here with me, ready to save the world…
