SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 14 out, this is Chapter 15 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot bunny and my OCs.

Chapter 15: Koga and Pallas! Encounter on the Battlefield!


"You do realize this isn't going to get us anywhere." Ceres reminded, Seiya's lightning fists taking out the troops of Pallasites heading their way.

"You're right." Seiya admitted. "It's doesn't matter how many Pallasites we defeat... it's all pointless. If we don't defeat Pallas, we can't save Athena. I must defeat Pallas." he looked up at the white castle.

"Vesta, what's wrong?" Juno looked at the Fire Goddess Guardian.

"I sense Pallas, she's on the move." Vesta turned to the sky.


"You said you'd protect me." Pallas glared at Koga who had brought her to the group of human evacuates

"I'm a Saint of Athena." Koga reminded. "I protect Athena."

"I see..." Pallas started to flare up her Cosmo. "So you're going to abandon me. Just who do you think you are, anyway?"

"This is..." Koga was stunned.

"You're only a human!" Pallas snapped.

"Hurry!" the Steel Saints quickly ushered the humans off.

"What is this huge Cosmo?" Subaru was shocked when he and Eden arrived.

"I can barely breathe..." Ryuho winced.

"It's totally different from normal Cosmo!" Yuna realized.

"It's so evil and twisted..." Eden muttered.

"You were nice to me, and then you threw me away..." Pallas mumbled. "I loved you. And you wanted to leave me. Athena left me, choosing those foolish humans. You're just like Athena." her Cosmo flared up, tearing off the coat that covered her body to reveal the familiar armband around her arm.

"That ring!" Ryuho recognized the coiled ring.

"You can't be..." Koga realized who was before him.

"I am Pallas." Pallas stated. "The Goddess of love, Pallas!"

"Stand back, Saints." Titan warned, arriving via a bolt of lightning. "I won't allow you to lay a finger of Pallas-sama."

"Titan, you came for me?" Pallas beamed.

"Of course." Titan replied. "Protecting you is my job."

"IF we defeat Pallas, we can save Athena." Souma was ready for battle.

"I am one of the Four Pallasite Kings, Titan." Titan declared, powering up in response to the younger Saints.

"I can't move..." Souma muttered when Titan drew his sword.

"What is that sword?" Yuna asked.

"The Blade of Theogenesis," Titan raised his blade. "A holy blade the ancient gods used when they created the world. When this blade's light shines on it, most Cosmo will stop."

"Koga, abandon Athena and be my servant." Pallas offered. "Then I won't kill you."

"I told you, I am a Saint of Athena!" Koga retorted.

"Oh." Pallas shrugged. "Then I don't need you. Titan, kill Pegasus."

"So you are Pegasus, the god-slayer?" Titan looked at the Pegasus Saint. "A dangerous man. Perhaps,it is best to kill you quickly."

"Goodbye, Koga." Pallas smirked as Titan neared the stupefied Bronze Saint.

Titan suddenly raised his sword to block off an incoming energy bolt. "So you are here, Gold Saint of Sagittarius?"

"Pallas, you've grown so much." Seiya remarked. "You've grown this much by stealing away Athena's life."

"Yes, I can't wait to grow up." Pallas grinned. "I'll take her life and I'll get even bigger."

"Do you think we'll let you?" Juno growled as the three Goddess Guardians entered the fighting zone with Seiya "Surely, you haven't forgotten our faces, have you, Pallas?"

"You haven't changed one bit, Pallas." Ceres tsked. "Still a spoiled little girl throwing tantrums when she can't get what she wants."

"Can you defeat me?" Pallas scoffed. "I know neither of you can hurt a child. You're too kind."

"We won't hesitate any longer." Juno drew her gladius, the other two Goddess Guardian following suit as Seiya drew his arrow. "We haven't forgotten what happened the last time."

"Pointing your weapons at a god is no mere sin." Titan reminded. "It is a mortal sin, for even being flayed would not atone."

"Even so..." Seiya hissed. "Even if I am disgraced... even if I am torn apart... I will protect Athena!"

"I am the same way." Titan noted. "No matter what, I will protect Pallas-sama."

Seiya released his arrow, only to have Titan block it.

"Humans are so stupid." Pallas giggled. Her eyes glowing red, she turned the golden arrow back on its archer. "Vesta-nee-san..." the youngest of the Goddess Guardians was shocked to see an opaque curtain of flames erected immediately before Seiya, the wall of fire stopping the arrow.

"Don't call me nee-san." Vesta glared. "You're no sister of mine!"

"Sagittarius Seiya, Pegasus Koga, you are human, yet you have Cosmo to move before the Blade of Theogenesis?" Titan was impressed. "And you dare to attack Pallas-sama. I cannot allow you to live."

"Titan, we're leaving." Pallas turned.

"However, my priority now is Pallas-sama's safety." Titan added. Raising his blade, he teleported Pallas and himself off.

"That was the perfect chance to defeat Pallas!" Souma cursed.

"I couldn't even move... Ryuho muttered.

"A normal Cosmo cannot defeat her." Seiya reminded.

"How do we fight now?" Yuna wondered.

"We go forward." Koga replied. "Even if it means committing a sin, we must fight. Even if we are fighting someone stronger, we must go forward. Even if we can't do it on our own, if we all work together and advance, I'm sure we can defeat Pallas."
