LIBRA'S MIND

EVENING

Cancer started glowing as the Guardians looked at her cautiously and worried.

Taurus - What is happening to her?

Alya - She has awakened her other gift.

Alesia - Oh boy.

Aries - We have more?

Alya - I made the spell in a way for Guardians always to evolve. Now Cancer doesn't only read and manipulate your emotions, but she can also change your moods.

Aries - That's a handy trick.

Sagittarius - I need to rest.

Sagittarius left as Leo went as well.

Inside Libra's mind, Cancer had almost completed her evolution.

As she opened her eyes, she smiled.

She looked at her thoughts and then saw her younger self standing in front of her.

Child Cancer - Are you me?

Cancer - How did you know?

Child Cancer - I can read your emotions.

Cancer smiled and kneeled in front of her younger self.

Child Cancer - I don't like my gift. Sometimes it's sad and hard to read everyone's emotions. They make me want to cry.

Cancer - Princes Cancer, I'm sorry for not being able to protect you all the time. I'm sorry that you had to cry all those times because you felt the world was closing in on you, but I want to tell you one thing—thank you for always being so happy and positive, because I'm who I am today because you held on, never gave up, and smiled through the storm and tears.

Child Cancer smiled.

Child Cancer - Was I really that helpful?

Cancer smiled and hugged her past self.

Cancer - You can rest now. I've got it from here. I'll embrace you from here and never let you down. I'll never give up on you, just like you never gave up on me and our gift.

The child smiled and disappeared as Libra walked in.

Libra - It's not polite to wander in my mind.

Cancer smiled and held Libra's hand.

Cancer - We have Guardians to get back to. Aquarius is losing his mind.

Libra smiled and held Cancer's hand.

THRONE ROOM

UNKNOWN TIME

Jupiter and Venus were arguing.

Venus - Our people will never accept her!

Jupiter - Well, then they'll be charged with treason for not accepting their future queen and my heir!

Venus looked at her brother.

Venus - You have lost all your senses over a woman.

Jupiter looked at her.

Jupiter - What do you expect me to do, sister? Have my queen stay a servant while she gives me my heir?

Venus - What about me? I'm of royal blood. You're taking what's rightfully mine and giving it to some lowly being who's not even from our home!

Jupiter - My decision is final.

Venus - You're throwing me the glove?

Jupiter - You're still the princess and...

Venus - I deserve to be a queen!

Jupiter looked at her as Venus took out her sword.

Jupiter extended his hand.

Jupiter - I don't want to do this.

Venus - You'll use your mind control on me?

Jupiter - I don't want to, but you forget I'm more powerful than you... I was born with magic. You weren't.

Venus looked at him fearfully as Mars went in. He looked at both of them.

Mars - Gemini stole my immortality.

Jupiter and Venus turned and looked at Mars.

UNKNOWN TIMES

Capricorn was wandering around as Pisces appeared again.

Pisces - Still stubborn, aren't we?

Capricorn looked at Pisces carefully.

Capricorn - Not stubborn, just a serving girl.

Pisces - Well, that's what you are.

Capricorn looked at Pisces.

Capricorn - Your sister is more loving than you.

Pisces - Yes, her whinings are especially wonderful.

Capricorn looked at Pisces.

Pisces - I apologize. I'm frustrated because we can't find Gemini.

Capricorn - Why did you return?

Pisces - I was worried about you.

Voice - He's a fake. Get away from him.

Capricorn shook her head.

Voice - Capricorn, if you can hear, I'm the Oracle. Pisces wants to trick you.

Capricorn looked at Pisces.

Pisces walked towards Capricorn and held her hand.

Pisces - I'm truly sorry for the way I talked to you,

Capricorn - Can you teleport us home?

Pisces - I can try.

Voice - Don't trust him.

Capricorn - Pisces, will you ever hurt me?

Pisces looked at her.

Pisces - Are you alright?

Capricorn - I keep hearing voices in my head.

Pisces - Trickery.

Pisces went closer and held Capricorn's face and looked into her eyes.

Pisces - Listen to me, you're being tricked. Don't listen to those voices.

Capricorn - How do I know you're not tricking me?

Pisces looked at her.

Pisces - You really think I'm capable of doing that to you?

Capricorn kept quiet.

NIGHT

Aries was holding a meeting as the Guardians were sitting around the table.

Aries - Once Libra is awake, we're returning home, and when we're triumphant, you each will have to have your positions in your tribes as I appoint you.

The Guardians looked at him.

Aries - Leo, you'll be appointed as my war General.

Leo did a little bow with his head.

Aries - Taurus, Pisces, and Sagittarius, will become the kings of their respected tribes and kingdoms.

Taurus - I'm not a Taurus.

Aries - Yes, you are.

Taurus looked at him and smiled.

Taurus - I don't wish to be a king.

Aries - Taurus, I didn't wish to fight against my brother. I had to. I didn't want to have our home invaded, but it happened. You see, sometimes we must do things we don't want for the greater good, for the next generation.

Taurus kept quiet.

Sagittarius - No one will accept me as their king.

Aries - Then they will answer to me.

Sagittarius looked at Aries and kept quiet.

Aries - My head adviser will be Ophiuchus. He'll also be the next king of the Serpent tribe.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Aries - And finally, Virgo and Scorpio will become the king and queen of the Virgo tribe.

Alesia - I prefer Alesia.

Aries - As you wish, queen Virgo.

Alesia looked at him, annoyed.

Aries - That will be all.

Aquarius looked at Aries as Aries walked away.

LIBRA'S MIND

NIGHT

Cancer and Libra were walking through the hallway of doors.

"Miranda's thoughts," "Drako's thoughts," "Ophiuchus's thoughts."

Cancer - We have to leave, Libra.

Libra - I don't want to.

Cancer looked at her.

Libra - I never liked you, you know.

Cancer looked at her.

Libra - You control emotions. I control minds. We were always the opposites.

Cancer smiled.

Libra - And now, you're the only one who can take me out of my own mind.

Cancer kept looking at Libra.

Libra - I don't want to admit it, Cancer, but I have grown quite fond of you.

Cancer smiled.

Libra - You have come a long way, and now you're even controlling my mood.

Cancer chuckled.

Cancer - You caught that, didn't you?

Libra - I can read your mind. You're changing my mood to calm me down, to be at ease, to feel safe.

Cancer - Because you are. Everyone's waiting for you.

Libra - I miss Aquarius.

Cancer - And he misses you.

Libra - We cannot leave unless we enter through all the thoughts.

Cancer - Why?

Libra - Because these doors keep me locked in.

Cancer looked at her, confused.

Libra - I need to open these doors, and only then will I have the courage to open my eyes and face the new possibilities of the world.

Cancer looked down the hall as she saw all the thoughts of the Guardians glowing on the doors.
