EPISODE 4: THE PORTAL OF THE REALMS
SCENE 1
SPACE
SPACE SHIP
UNKNOWN TME
Gemini was looking out the window from the spaceship, the space full of stars.
YEARS AGO...
In the beautiful tribe of the Gemini aristocrats, little Gemini witnessed how his father was being trusted with the dagger of the phoenix, smiling proudly. Gemini's mother whispered in the little boy's ear.
Mother - That's all you're good for, to keep the dagger, my boy. Never use your disgusting gift.
Little Gemini didn't pay attention because he thought having a disgusting gift was the normal name of his powers. Then another flashback as Gemini tried training with one of the boys in his tribe. He had copied the boy's power.
Dorado - You're two-faced! Stabbing me in the back like that! You're supposed to be the Guardian who saves us all? What a jest!
As the years went by and Gemini went from being a little boy to a young man, he had flashbacks of how his friends started to always keep their distances from him. He remembered the first time he met Capricorn, and a smile appeared on his lips, looking out of that window in the spaceship. He remembered how he was in his training chamber, with the bright light of the fairies sparkling. Gemini was training, his eyes closed, meditating, as a bucket of cold water was splashed at him, and he opened his eyes, startled, looking at Capricorn cluelessly.
Capricorn - Oh, I apologize. I thought you were dead.
Gemini just looked at her blankly.
Capricorn - I'm Capricorn, my lord. Your personal servant and a Guardian.
She showed her ring of restriction. Gemini had other flashbacks. He had a deep cut from training, and Capricorn was tending to his wounds. She was trying to clean up the injury, and he was looking closely at her.
Gemini - I always give you trouble. Why do you always care for me?
Capricorn looked at him and smiled.
Capricorn - Because I'm the only one who does.
Gemini looked away, understanding he was falling in love with her.
Uranus put her hand on Gemini's shoulder, making him snap out of it.
Uranus - Almost there.
Gemini looked at her and kept quiet.

UNKNOWN TIME
UNKNOWN PLACE
Ophiuchus and the Oracle were in the hallway in front of the Virgo elders.
Ophiuchus - You're the tribe who purifies and saves our people. We need you now more than ever.
Virgo Elder 1 - The king is killed.
Virgo Elder 2 - The Guardians are missing.
Virgo Elder 2 - Almost every single race on our planet has been slaughtered and massacred.
Ophiuchus kept quiet.
Oracle - You have the choice to put the barrier down and purify the wounds of those who are still breathing.
Everyone looked at the Oracle and kept quiet.
Oracle - You're the reason our home is in this condition.
Ophiuchus looked at her as the elders kept quiet, looking at each other with troubled expressions.
Oracle - You disobeyed the king's orders and exiled the Guardian Virgo without consulting it with anyone. Now when we needed Virgo the most...
Virgo Elder 4 - Everyone makes mistakes.
Virgo Elder 5 - Even you, milady.
Oracle looked at her.
Oracle - I have no power over your choices. I foresaw what you were going to do and didn't stop you. My role is to give you advice, not to stop you.
The elders kept quiet.
Oracle - I was the one who helped the Virgo tribe to overthrow the tyrants Cepheus and Cassiopeia when they eliminated their heir to the throne, Andromeda. I was the one who helped restore the reputation of the Virgo tribe. It's time to pay the debt.
Ophiuchus - What will you choose to do now?
The Virgos looked at each other.
Virgo Elder 5 - We'll scatter in our planet and purify and help those who are still alive. We'll build their home and place barriers for their tribes and territories on a few conditions.
Oracle smirked.
Virgo Elder 1 - You, Serpent Guardian, have to give your word when everyone is done, and if our planet is victorious, the princes have to take control of their land.
Ophiuchus looked at the Oracle.
Ophiuchus - I don't understand.
Virgo Elder 2 - The prince of the Merpeople, Guardian Pisces. The prince of the centaur tribe, the cursed child, known as Guardian Sagittarius. The prince of the serpent tribe....You... Have to take the throne.
Ophiuchus - But what if my father—
Virgo Elder 3 - That is our first condition.
Ophiuchus kneeled and bowed.
Virgo Elder 4 - Our second condition is, you have to build an army.
Ophiuchus - When the Guardians return and summon the phoenix...
Virgo Elder 3 - The phoenix will give them temporary immortality, with a time limit. Once that limit is up, the Guardians need an army to help them. Even though the phoenix gives immortality, the Guardians will be drained of their energy to move for a while when the limit is up.
The serpent looked at them and then at the Oracle.
Virgo Elder 4 - As for the Oracle, she has a guest to visit.
The Oracle smirked.
Ophiuchus - All the tribes of our home have been almost destroyed. How do I find an army?
Virgo Elder 5 - You need to go through the realms of the different dimensions.
Ophiuchus didn't understand. The Virgo elders chanted something as a hole appeared in mid-air.
Virgo Elder 1 - This portal will stay open until you return. It'll lead you to the hidden realms of Spring, Autumn, Winter, and Summer. If you're born under a lucky constellation, you'll find the hidden Ethereal Realm where the warrior constellations are being trained. But before you get to meet the constellations, you have to overcome your fears and scars and make sure you're not thrown out of the realms.
Oracle - What that means is, Ophiuchus, you'll face many challenges, but keep in mind, you need to pass them and keep a clear head.
Ophiuchus - In other words, you want me to find the hidden constellations, creatures that have never been bothered since the creation of our home?
The Virgos looked at him approvingly. Ophiuchus looked at the Oracle.
Ophiuchus - I need to do this alone, my lady.
He bowed to all of them and went into the portal.

ROOM
Sagittarius and Pisces were in the rooms, looking at the TV and trying to understand what the movie was about.
Sagittarius - What do you think about this place?
Pisces - I like it.
Sagittarius looked at him.
Pisces - It's better than being the doomed prince of the merpeople, where no one wants you.
Sagittarius - You can't talk like that unless you're the cursed child of the entire tribe, who's also a prince no one wants.
Pisces looked at Sagittarius.
Sagittarius - I don't even have a standard traditional centaur look.
Pisces - Everyone likes Cancer... And honestly, sometimes I wonder if she's the one who should take over the throne.
Sagittarius - Aren't you the firstborn?
Pisces - It doesn't matter. Cancer doesn't want to be a queen. She's overly emotional for that role.
Sagittarius laughed.
Pisces - And I don't want to take the role because it's too serious.
Sagittarius - Sometimes, I wonder if we should find Virgo and go back home.
Pisces looked at him.
Sagittarius - Don't misunderstand me. I love home, and I love being a Guardian, and the centaur inside me wants to bring justice and avenge my grandfather, but...
Pisces - But sometimes it's not as incredible as it sounds.
Sagittarius - We've been focusing on Virgo so much that we forgot our own troubles.
Pisces just looked at him and kept quiet.

NIGHT
ALESIA'S HOUSE LIVING ROOM
Alesia was sleeping as her mother was sitting in the living room, facing Aquarius and Aries.
Aries - You know who we are?
Alesia's mother smirked.
Alya - I recognized you the minute you arrived.
Aquarius - How? You remember your old life, but...
Alya - I'm the queen of the Virgo tribe. The creator of the guardians' spell and dark mage's daughter who sealed him. Don't underestimate me.
Aquarius and Aries kept quiet.
Alya - What do you want from my daughter?
Aries - We need her to do her role.
Alya - No.
Aquarius and Aries looked at her.
Aquarius - No?
Alya - No.
Aries - Have you lost your mind?
Aquarius - Our home is at the brink of destruction. Our father...
Alya - Your father is a despicable man, who killed Virgo's father, Auriga, and labeled him as a criminal, spreading rumors about the dignified queen of the Virgos. I was shamed for that, and my daughter was exiled because of her ability to remove restriction rings.
Aries - Our father was an honorable man! Indeed, I never liked him, and he got under my skin, and he was very narrow-minded.
Aquarius looked at him, annoyed.
Aquarius - I don't know what happened between you and my father, nor do I care. But all I can tell you is my father was killed, our home was invaded, and we need all the Guardians to be together. We need Virgo to help us. She's the missing piece.
Alya - Alesia is happy here. She'll never believe you. And if Virgo doesn't awaken and remembers who she is, how are you going to get back?
Aries - What?
Alya smirked.
Alya - The Oracle didn't tell you that little detail?
Aquarius and Aries looked at each other, worried and confused.
Alya - Virgo needs to awaken. Now you can tell her all the stories and wonderful things about our home, but if she doesn't believe you, the Virgo within her will never be able to remove the rings of restrictions. Her powers will not be activated if she doesn't awaken... And the people on this planet...don't believe in miracles.
