Olympus 17- Daughter of Apollo- Dave is hanging out with the others as Demi tries prying at what's bothering him. "Is it something with Sara?" "Actually, it is. My father personally invited her to dinner at my house, I don't think that her and my father would get along very well. Hell, me and my own father don't get along." Meanwhile Miki is in the center of Olympi and tries to summon both her hammer and her sword. "RAIKU BLADE! CRABHAMMER!" Both weapons appear, but as she tries to move both weapons brutally blow up in her face as she demorphs, her face getting burned a bit. Dave rushes to her. "Oh my, are you alright Miki?" "Thank's Dave, I'm fine." Demi replies. "You don't look fine, here, let me-" "Stop it, I'm fine, really I am. It's just that now we know we can't do that." Shun comments. "That would be way too good in battle if that were the case." Amy does some calculations on her computer from studying what happened. "So I figured out why that's the case." "You did? What is it?" "It turns out your powers can only support so many power ups at once. Each of you is capable of using one of your weapons no problem but if you try to use both, it sends too much power that you can't handle right now. Think of it like putting up too many christmas tree lights." Miki says "A basic power surge, right?" "Yeah. Until we could find a way to supercharge you guys, that will happen anytime both weapons are wielded at the same time." Dave gets up to get ready for his date, Demi asking "Maybe I should come with you, to take her home in case things get, ugly." "It's fine Demi. I'm sure my father will act very cordial to her face, he acts that way to everyone except for me."

Dave shows up to Sara's apartment in a nice sweater vest and khakis, his hair slicked down with his face beaming red from the heat. "Hey Dave. How do I look?" The usually plain and nerdy looking sara has a really nice looking Oriental Styled dress with a parting in the side to show off her legs, when she usually wears long jeans. Dave is smitten by this and says "You honestly didn't need to-" "But I wanted to. I don't know how much longer I am for this world, but I sure as hell want to impress you and your father before anything happens." Dave snaps out of it for a second as he starts wondering about what she said. "What do you mean you don't know how much longer you are for the world?" "All I know is that my powers have been showing flashes of black in my vision, something I only assume is an omen. Please don't worry about it. Let's just enjoy the night, ok?" Sara's eyes turn snake like but she immediately puts them back to normal. "What was that?" "Let's just get to your house Dave." "Hmm."

At Mt. Olympus, Chronos is getting ready for one of his latest schemes. "I can't believe we never thought of this plan sooner." Chronos is putting on a Armani suit as Asteria finishes her newest concoction. "All done lord Chronos. And might I say, you look very handsome." "Thank you, that's part of the plan. These humans follow a system very similar to that of the Athenians. If all it takes is the will of the majority, well, it's easier than trying to conquer it by force. Humans have always been fearful and naive. It will be a sinch." Chronos then takes a drink of Asteria's potion. "It's time. Asteria, how long till the effects wear off?" "24 hours sir." "That is more than enough time. Do you have my charm ready?" "Of course sir." Chronos takes the small pin and puts it on his suit. "You look impeccable sir. I'm confident this plan will go without a hitch." "I know it will, I made the plan. I was a fool to think the world could simply be conquered with force." He then teleports to the Hans residence for a special visit. The servant at the front asked. "What is your business here good sir?" "Ah yes, my name Noka Chron. I'd like to speak with Mr. Hans if you would so please." The eyes of the servant glow. "Right away Master Chron." Mr. Hans comes downstairs. "What the hell do you want?" "Not much good sir, just a proposition. I can make it worth your while." "I'm all ears." Hans' eyes glow.

Sara and Dave arrive at the Hans residence where Dave is still nervous. "Relax hun, everything is going to work out fine." "I hope so. With that weird trick you pulled and my Dad, oh it's all so awkward." Dave knocks on the door when the servant answers the door. "Oh hello Master Dave. Your father has been waiting for you." Dave and Sara walk upstairs to see Mr. Hans and Chron speaking to each other over a glass of wine. "My my Dave, you got a hot one. What's your name miss?" "Sara sir. Sara Saiyuki. It's an honor to meet you." "I honestly didn't think the fruit pie over here could meet such a nice looking girl." "DAD!" "Oh relax. It's about time you went the right way. She's so much more pretty than what's his face." Dave starts getting visibly irritated as they get ready to eat. Chron takes a peculiar interest in Dave and senses his power. "Why hello there Dave. You seem a sporting young man." Dave, feeling a weird aura from Chron replies "Who the heck are you?" "Oh, how could I be so rude. I'm Noka Chron, dark horse candidate for prime minister and a good friend of your fathers." "Yeah, Chron here is one hell of a guy Dave. He's intelligent, Harvard educated and suave." "Then how come I've never seen his name in the paper?" "Oh, well I just started my campaign yesterday. I need a financial backer, like your father." Chron notices the godchanger in his pocket and it piques his interest. "There's plenty of rich men in town, does it have to be-" "WHERE ARE YOUR MANNERS DAVID! I'm so sorry Mr. Chron." "Please, call me Chron, and he has a point. Your boy is sharp. The reason I chose your father is that he seems like a guy I can depend on, and he's going to get a nice bonus when this is all said and done." "Dad, I need to talk to you." "Why? We're at the dinner table, that and your girlfriend is here." Sara says "I need to go to the bathroom real quick." Chron replies "I do as well." The two leave separate ways as Dave and his father start talking.

"What the hell was that?" "That man is nothing but a charlatan and a-" "Oh I see, I'm not allowed to see who I want to see but it's all honkey-dorey when you go spooning, is that right?" "That isn't whats being discussed here dad. That man is not giving me good vibes at all." "You just don't understand politics son. Money talks and bullshit walks. I have myself an up and coming politician who needs my help, I give him the money he needs, and he doesn't forget who helps him." "That's bribery." "It's politics son. When you get older you'll understand." "I understand it very clearly dad. I also understand that you're nothing but a greedy crook who just uses people to meet ends." "You talk a big game, but if you had to walk in my shoes for one day, you'd be begging to go back to freeloading like you do." "If that's how you feel dad, I'm afraid I'll have to move out." "What was that?" "I'm leaving this house. If I catch you stalking me with your guys, it won't be pretty for them." "Oh a tough guy here. At least you're not acting like the fruitcake you used to be. Amazing what dating a girl can do." "It's comforting knowing I no longer have to listen to your ignorance and your disrespect for your fellow man." "Could you at least finish dinner before you abandon your legacy like this? One last favor for your father." "Fine. Only to make sure Sara has a good evening." "This is just a phase you know. You've never had to fend for yourself. Once you see how hard it is, like I used to, you'll come crawling back to here, and when you do, you'll do anything I say." "We'll see dad." "I'll be sure to hold all of your possessions." "Good. The only thing I'm going to need is my prized soccer ball and my laptop." "Deal. It's not too late to change your mind."

Chron and Sara return to the table and the rest of the dinner is awkward. Sara tries to break the silence. "So, did anyone see those Joutengers on TV?" Dave's father asks "Who are the Joutengers?" Sara is about to speak but Chron speaks for her "If you ask me, they're nothing but a bunch of show-offs with no sense of responsibility. They leave immense property damage and they also leave our civilians injured and hurt." Dave starts getting angry but tries to hold his anger in check, Sara holding his hand as he grips his fork tight. "Maybe they're trying their best. You don't know them." "You don't know them either boy. For all we know they could have a hidden agenda that involves taking over our government. We've seen their powers, they can kill us all." "Don't you think they would have-" "ENOUGH! Dave, would you and your girlfriend kindly leave the house, I need to get a drink." "FINE!" "So long David, your a sharp boy, I want us to meet again." Chron's eyes glow as Dave replies "I don't. So long Mr. Chron." Dave takes Sara and leaves. "I'm so sorry for this evening. My son is a real brat-" "No need for such harsh language Hans. The boy has tenacity. He's certainly an interesting one." "If you say so. What about those guys in spandex?" "Oh, we have all night to chat about them."

Dave and Sara go walking outside for a bit. "You know it's not worth it." "I don't care. My father is just the worst." "He's still your dad." "Sometimes I question that. At least I don't have to live with him anymore." "But Dave, if this man really is as shady as he comes off, wouldn't it make sense to be at home with your father?" "My father chooses to never hear me out or support me, so if he wants to get roped into this illegal scheme it's all him." "I wasn't aware you could be so heartless." "I'm not heartless. He's been the worst father my whole life. The one time I try to look out for him he turns me away like I'm a leper, so I'm not taking it anymore. I don't care if I'm destitute, as long as I never have to see him again, I'll be good." "I see, so that's how you feel. I saw a vision of your father. All I see are dark clouds ahead for him." "Good. He says he's so great and untouchable, I say let him dig his company into the ground." "Dave, didn't Chron give off a really strong aura." "Now that you mention it, I've spent so much time thinking about my father that I wasn't able to feel his aura out at all, but from what I can recall, it's a distinctly familiar one. I just can't remember who it's from, but I know it from somewhere." The two continue their walk to Sara's house as he hugs her good night. Sara says "You forgot something." "I did, what-" Sara kisses him on the cheek as she goes into her house, Dave blushing with delight. Sara goes upstair to her room, her face and eyes starting to change shape. "I can't believe it's happening so soon, I just wish I could spend more time with him, GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" A shadow of a snake appears in her bedroom.

Dave goes to Olympi and greets Kai and Hera. "Hey guys." "Yo." "What brings you here Dave? How'd your date go?" "Well, it had its good and bad. I moved out of my father's place and have to find a job to work at. My father's actions pretty much ruined me and Sara's perfect evening. I'll let you decide what were the good and bad parts of the night." "Well you're always welcome to sleep here. You won't be dull company like this sad sack." "I don't plan on staying here for long. I plan on getting a job and finding my own place in the world. No more legacy, no more father dragging me down, it will be a new me." "You sure there princess? I don't know how well you could take the real world." "I'll persevere, like I always do. I just need to find my new calling." "What about your soccer career?" "I've been kicked off the team ever since I moved back here to mourn Jamie. I doubt any one of the major leagues want me back on." "Then what about writing? You love poetry and song, am I wrong?" "I do, but soccer has always been my life dream." Dave goes to sleep on the floor in a sleeping bag and wonders what tomorrow will bring. "I hope for another fine day with my friends, my girlfriend and perhaps a Titan free day."

Dave wakes up early as Kai is still snoring away and sees Hera sleeping as well. "I guess they're late risers. Oh well." Dave starts doing some pushups and situps, working up a sweat and noticing what the base really looks like when there's nobody here. "This place is pretty filthy. Kai's clothes are everywhere, there is garbage everywhere, how do we live here? I know." Dave goes out and uses some of his money to buy garbage bags, disinfectants and laundry bags. He returns to the base to start cleaning up while Hera and Kai are sleeping. "I'm sure I could do this before they wake up." Dave starts tirelessly picking up garbage, putting Kai's dirty clothes in laundry bags and sprays the floor with disinfectants. After about an hour, it's all done. "Phew, who knew two people could leave such a mess. We really need to get this place looking nicer." Hera wakes up from her sleep to see Dave finish up cleaning the controls to the central computer. "Wow, this place looks absolutely spotless. Not a speck of dirt on the floor. Dave, you did all of this?" "Oh, yeah, I did. I can't have this place look like a mess. It isn't fair to the both of you." "You did this for us?" "Yeah. Now that we have laundry bags and garbage bags we could start looking after ourselves." "That's very thoughtful of you." "Is Kai that heavy a sleeper?" "Oh please, he's going to be up in a few minutes. He gets to do his favorite activity." "Beat people up?" "No, keeping an eye on Demi at her job. That boy needs to stop making it so obvious." "The question is does Demi know." "I don't think so." "He needs to do something aside from stalk her. I think I know what it is." "Anything is better than what he does usually." Dave's phone rings. "Hello, hey Sara. WHATS THAT!? I mean, it's so sudden, I didn't exactly, well, of course. I'll see you tomorrow." "What is it?" "I need to get my ball and head to the park." "What about Kai?" "We'll do it tomorrow." He runs out as Kai wakes up. "W-w-what?" Kai smells the place. "Why does it smell all lady like?" "Dave spent the whole morning cleaning this place up for us." "Really? Good for him." Kai goes to get ready to leave but Hera stops him. "You know as well as I do that you're not watching Demi for protection. She's fine, if anything happens we'll be there." Kai goes to sit down.

Dave waits in the park for Sara, kicking his ball around the small soccer field. "There has to be something I can do with soccer. Something." Sara shows up, looking more nervous than usual. "What's wrong Sara? It's a beautiful day." Dave kicks the ball to Sara. "Kick it back, come on now." "Umm, ok." They kick the ball back and forth a bit, Dave impressed by how good her kicks are. "Have you ever considered taking soccer as a sport?" "No. Dave, let's go around town and have some fun. I don't know how much time we have left." "But it's only 10 in the morning. You need to relax. I can see you're worried about something. Would you please just, tell me." "I've been having really bad visions about us, and the visions keep pointing to today. I don't know anything else." "Are you sure?" "Yeah." A bit of a pause. "Well then, lets hit the town. A little fun around the city should put you at ease." They go around Tokyo, going to the little dumpling shops and listening to performers on the street. They go to an arcade where Dave sings rather poorly some karaoke while Sara also dances rather poorly in a DDR machine. "Good try Sara." "Thanks." They start walking into the market plaza where a flock of crows suspiciously watches the couple. Back at Olympy, Tetsu gives the order to attack. The crows, with bronze on their beaks, descend upon some innocent people at an outdoor cafe. "Sara, run, now." "I can help you though." "This isn't a joke, get out of here now! Please." Sara reluctantly runs for cover as Dave morphs. "1-2-5! GOD CHANGE!" He summons his fans and tries to use them to slash the birds but to no avail, the birds retaliating against him and they start swarming his body, one bird pecking his knee, weakening it severely as Dave keels down.

Back at the base, Hera tries to send a message to the others. "There's a flock of birds attacking the city. Dave's on the case, the rest of you need to come immediately." Miki and Amy, in the middle of an exam, rush through it and run out. Demi cancels her class as Shun runs out of the house and Kai rushes to the center of town. Miki asks "Hera, where is the source?" Demi asks "Where's Dave?" "To answer Miki's question, well, this is awkward. There are five energy signatures across the city, you need to each go to one and stop it. Dave's already dealing with one." Kai says "Crap." Miki asks "What is it?" "Dave's out on a date. Sara could be in danger." Shun says "Well we can't just all go in to help her. There are four more flocks of those things." Demi confidently says "I'll save them both." Miki calmly says "Relax Demi. Dave's a strong senshi, he'll be just fine." Demi looks down as Shun tells her "If we don't go get those other birds, everyone will get hurt. Dave can take care of himself." Kai nods as Demi reluctantly nods as well. They split up.

Meanwhile Dave is having a miserable time against the bird's, him trying to fight on a bum knee as Sara rushes to him. "Didn't you hear what I said." Dave writhes in pain a bit as Sara uses her telekinesis powers to crush the birds under some rubble while her face starts turning into a serpent. Dave is amazed as Sara holds him on her shoulders. "Thank you so much Sara. I don't know if I can keep fighting." "You can and you will." "Mind explaining why your eyes look like snake eyes?" Sara sighs then says "I'll explain later, come on." She carries him away as the other four start fighting their flock of birds. "Lightning Strike!" "Water Whip!" Kai tries stabbing his with the stygian rock as an arm blade. Demi tries to use a tree to crush them. The elemental attacks and Kai's stab does nothing while Demi crushing the birds with a tree delays them enough. The crows attack Shun and Miki furiously as Kai tries matching blows with them, to no avail. "Raiku Blade." "Water Trident!" Miki and Shun try using their weapons to fight back against the beasts but it fails. The birds start mocking the Joutengers. "You're all so foolish." The birds start to move towards the center of the city as the Joutengers try and run towards them. A large crow figure with manlike features amasses in the center of the city with a bronze tipped spear. "You Joutengers are a foolish lot. Do you not know the history of the Stymphalian Birds?" Amy says "Stymphalian Birds. Wait a minute." She goes to look up its history on the internet and remembers it now. "Guys, the Stymphalian Birds were one of the 12 labors of Hercules. Their invulnerable to everything but the sound of divine music." Miki asks "Well how the hell do we find divine music?" "We need to find the Demi God of Apollo and fast. If we could get music based powers, we'll be able to defeat these oversized chickens." Shun says "Sounds good to me. Where's Dave?" Demi also asks "Do you know his location Amy?" "Yeah, he's on the outskirts of the city with Sara. She has a similar energy signature to us, so she's probably giving Dave her powers, whatever they may be." Kai says "Great, we could really use the help-"

The Stymphalian Birds charge at Kai, slashing back. "I won't let you try. You're going to be killed by me. Your friend will just have to wait." "Grr." "Don't fret, I'll be more than happy to end it quickly." The birds try to attack Kai with repeated slashes with the spear. Shun and Miki shoot their elements at the birds, but they immediately disperse their physical form. "I won't even let you touch me. I'm invincible Joutengers." Demi shouts "Oh yeah!?" She uses her powers to move another tree to crush the birds but they scatter and start charging at the other three Joutengers. Amy says "Their beaks are made of solid bronze, don't let them peck you, they'll do real damage to your body." Shun remarks "I think that was the plan Amy. Just start dancing guys." They start moving fluidly as they try to avoid the pecks of the birds, Demi doing the best of them while Kai does the worst. "Shit." Kai gets pecked a few times in the chest, knocking the wind out of him as Miki, in the middle of dodging hits herself, shoots an incredibly fast bolt of lightning, enough to force that flock of birds to start attacking her. Kai remains on the ground reeling from the pain. "I could feel my ribs almost breaking into pieces. I could hardly-" Kai demorphs and starts coughing up blood. Demi yells concerned "KAI!" Shun tries using his powers while avoiding the birds to create a rock wall stopping their divebomb at Demi dead in its tracks, squeezing the ground used for the attack to hold their beaks as Demi rushes to Kai. "I hope Dave is doing alright."

Dave and Sara go to the outskirts of the city, the forest leveled after the previous encounter with the Ceryneian Hind. Sara's body is becoming more serpentine as her neck starts forming the hood of the cobra. "Please, I just wanted one more day, please father. I know of the prophecy, just please one more day!" Dave, barely able to stand, goes to Sara. "Are you ok?" Sara turns around to Dave and starts to cry. "I never wanted it to be this way. Ever since I met you, you've made me feel like my life mattered. I came into this world knowing my fate would be this. I knew I'd eventually die this way. I should have never gotten to know you, this is just so painful." "What do you mean? Of course your life matters. It matters to me. Please stop crying, you still look beautiful." "No, you don't understand. The old me wasn't how I normally look. I've always looked like this. I just made myself appear human to bide time. I'm a hideous monster who should have-" Dave, with a limp, hugs her with intensity. "You're no hideous monster. You're a kind hearted, lovely girl with a mind as sharp as your beauty." Sara continues crying. "You don't understand what's going to happen next." "What do you mean?" "You must kill me for the Spirit of Apollo." Dave is taken aback, shocked almost to tears. "W-what? I-I have to what? No, that's not possible. I-I can't, I refuse." "This is why I wish I never had met you. Now that I found purpose in life, I want more than ever to escape my own fate. My father Apollo said that no matter how much they persevere, no mortal can escape their own fate. The Oracle of Delphi's prophecies are law and any man who has attempted to change their fate has failed. It's not our place to change what fate has chosen for us. My father said I was unable to give the spirit away, that it had to be won through blood and battle. I wish more than anything it wasn't the case."

Dave himself starts crying but looks more devastated than anything. "I was such a fool for following my own selfish desires. I'm nothing but a worthless vessel. You're the nicest guy in the world Dave, and I can't even begin to wonder what's going through your head. I wish I could just let you have the killing blow, but unless I draw blood the fight will be pointless. I'm so, so sorry Dave. I should have never made you feel for me." "No, no. Don't apologize for that. Sara, you've managed to help fill the void in my heart that I never thought would heal when Jamie died. If it wasn't for you and my friends, I'd still be living in despair now. You've helped fill my life with purpose. I am eternally grateful for that. If you really did feel worthless, would you really have had as much fun as you did with me? Both our lives matter, everyone does. If there was another way, even if I had to sell my soul to the devil, I'd do it for anyone." "How are you going to fight? Your knee is injured." "I held my own against Chronos himself with a broken arm, I'd say I'm not in the worst of shape." "If you say so. Just know it's killing me inside to do this." Sara turns into a cobra monster about 20 feet long as Dave, though wobbly from his knee injury, gets in stance to fight.

The fight begins and Sara tries crashing herself into the ground in a predictable pattern, Dave using one leg to try and jump out of the way, summoning his fans. He catches a rose in the wind and prepares to throw it but hesitates. "I don't understand, what's stopping me from attacking?" "What are you waiting for? You need to keep fighting Dave." Sara uses her tail to whack him down. Dave tries to get back on his feet despite his injured leg and uses his wind powers to blow himself back up. "Forgot I could do that." Dave prepares for another shot with his rose. He once again shutters and he gets knocked down again. "Dave, stop fooling around. If you don't kill me, the Joutengers won't get their new weapon and they'll be killed. I'm attacking you to make it self defense. I already drew blood. You have to fight back or they're doomed. I know it's hard to fight those we care about." Dave has a sudden realization. "It's important that we do our duty for the sake of the world though." "Thank you once again Sara. Now I realize why Demi hesitated when she attacked me. She cares an awful lot for me, and since she's a pacifistic soul, attacking me would have destroyed her. I can't help but feel the same way about this battle. No matter what happens, I love you Sara, and I'll make sure your last few weeks alive won't go to waste." Dave starts crying under his helmet, though silently with a determined look on his face. He throws the rose at her hood, stunning her a bit as he tries running under her hood to slash at her neck with his scallop fans. He prepares to make a killing blow as she lays prostrate, but once again hesitates. "D-dave, you've won. Please, I'm in incredible pain. Do this last favor, for me." Dave, now uncontrollably sobbing says "I want to kill myself for doing this but-" He stabs through her neck with his one closed up fan. He stays in a fetal position as his knee give out. "I-I can't believe I-I did that. It's not true, i-it's all just one big nightmare. Please, give me a sign that I did the right thing! NO!" He starts smashing the ground with his fist in anger and sadness as he can't stop crying. His God Changer starts glowing 1-3-0 as Demi rushes in. She slowly approaches Dave as he's mourning Sara's death. "Dave, did you, is that, oh no." She notices Sara's glasses next to the monster as Dave grabs them. "Oh, hi Demi." "Dave, what happened to your leg?" "That's not important. How are the others?" "We're having an awful time." "Well, it's a good thing I just got the power of Apollo. If I know my Greek history, his Lyre should be able to harm those godforsaken creatures." Dave tries getting up but fails and reels a bit, trying his best to stop crying. "I would try and heal you but we really need to get there fast. I'll carry you on my shoulders, is that good?" "Of course it is. It's actually some clever thinking. Nicely done Demi." Demi blushes a bit as she picks him up effortlessly and carries him on her shoulders. A golden lyre appears from the sky as the sky, which was originally a bit on the cloudy side, starts clearing up instantly as the sun starts shining brightly.

Back with the others, Shun tries using his pistols and Miki her hammer but to no avail. Kai, having some energy left after Demi healed him a bit, uses his Caduceus to try and hold him but the birds simply disperse into a flock and they reform to slash at him, knocking him down as he turns to slash Miki and Shun back as well. "This is the best that the children of the God's can do? Absolutely pathetic. I hope you enjoy a shallow grave." He prepares to execute Shun as all of a sudden a beautiful serenade is heard from a distance, which causes the Stymphalian birds to have a mind splitting headache. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" He starts rolling around, dispersing into the flock of birds as Demi walks in carrying Dave on her shoulders. "Thought you guys could use a sweet soothing piece." Shun says "Couldn't have come at a better time man." "Enough of this. Stop playing that music now!" "Well, if you insist." Dave starts playing a more sharp and strong tune, which causes the birds to start sparking. "I call it golden radiance!" The song reaches its end and the birds explode. Asteria back in Olympus uses her crystal ball to revive the Stymphalian Birds. Shun jokingly remarks "Man, that's one big chicken." Miki replies "One big chicken too many. Olympic King, arise!" The Olympic King forms and uses it's lance to attack the Stymphalian Birds, who takes no damage and slashes the Olympic King back, knocking it down as it slashes at the Olympic King while it's down. "Don't you remember, you can't hurt me that way." Miki says "This isn't looking too good." All of a sudden a white and gold cobra emerges from the sun and Dave sees the 1-3-0 on his phone. "Here goes nothing. Olympic King, Apollo Formation!" The hood of the cobra becomes a headdress for the Olympic king as its lower body becomes a guitar for the Olympic King. Olympic King starts playing a tune that starts causing the birds to spark as they kneel down in pain. "Let's finish him. Song of Apollo!" The Olympic King plays a very loud rock and roll tune that causes the Stymphalian Birds to explode.

Back at Mt. Olympus, Chronos is reprimanding Tetsu as Tetsu is kneeling. "Out of all my TItan's, your performance disappoints me the most Tetsu. You're starting to get on my nerves with your failures." "It won't happen again Lord Chronos, I swear." "Oh, it won't happen again. You've already proven your incompetence more than enough. The only way for you to outrank Asteria and Typhon and get your wish is to destroy the Joutengers yourself. Take a monster and a few Kokolos, but I promise you, if you fail to destroy the Joutengers and dare return, you'll wish you had been killed by them." Tetsu appears a bit shaken and worried. "You've still got one more chance Tetsu. I still expect great things from you." "Yes Lord Chronos." "Good. The good part of today is now I am officially running for Prime Minister. It will only be a matter of time before I've infiltrated the Joutengers home country and destroyed them from within." As Tetsu walks out of Chronos' chambers, Typhon and Asteria stop him. Asteria tells him "Don't worry if you don't destroy the Joutengers." Typhon says "We're Titan's, but we need to think about ourselves before Lord Chronos." "Are you saying we should betray him?" "That is a really good idea Tetsu. I was just saying we keep you from getting killed but that works as well." Asteria replies "I know what it is you want. I can also perform the deed." Tetsu suddenly looks ecstatic. "You can? What's the catch?" "Help us destroy Chronos and we'll give you what you want. After all, isn't that why you're here?" "Most of it." "Don't worry Tetsu baby, you'll have your sweet mother back and we'll be ruling the world." Tetsu leaves as Asteria and Typhon grin at each other in delight.

Since she had no loved ones, Dave holds an impromptu funeral at the local cemetery, Hera, Amy and the Joutengers attending in support, everyone looking sad, but none more so than Dave, who can't help but start crying as he starts the ceremony, Demi about to cry as she hugs Dave in the back. "We are gathered here today to honor the memory of Sara. She wasn't here long in this world. A young woman of 19 years of age. She had very little dreams, aside from being a professional flutist. She simply lived life day by day, living with the grim reminder of what her fate is, dictated by her father when she was born. She lived a life of isolation, hoping to not form relationships that she would regret when the time came." Everyone in attendance, even Kai, start fighting back tears. "She was a kind and wise soul at heart, and the day she met me both our lives changed for the better. She finally had someone she truly cared about and who truly cared about her in return. We were kindred spirits. Despite knowing her destiny she tried very hard to make sure she mattered in other people's lives, and it's safe to say that she made a very large impact in my life. She taught me that destiny, while it may appear written in stone, doesn't and shouldn't dictate our lives, that no matter where we came from, our upbringing, our social status, our race, that we can do anything we put our minds to. She taught me that no matter how insignificant you may feel, you do make a difference in other peoples lives. She, along with my friends, have helped in the healing process of losing my first love Jamie. Now, I have another hole in my heart, left by the newly departed. There isn't much I can do, but hope that my friends will help me through this new hole in my heart. Sara may not be remembered by anyone outside this funeral, but those who will remember her, we will hopefully keep her close to our hearts. Let this also be for remembrance of those whom we have lost in recent times. Miki and Shun's mother and Kai's friend Jamarah. May these flowers honor their memory." He takes a bundle of roses, silently crying as Kai starts sobbing uncontrollably, Hera comforting him. "His speech was just so, urgh." Amy starts playing the scottish version of amazing grace from her radio, crying into Shun's hug as Dave lays the flowers along with her glasses on her tombstone, returning back with tears running down his face, falling down sobbing as Demi holds him and they walk to their homes, sullen and crestfallen as the sun sets in the distance.
