Chapter 48: Moon's Betrayal

(Castle of Pluto; Charon)

"MAGICIAN MAGIC OPEN SESAME!"

"Yōma was trying to get the door of Space-time to open but it seems what he was trying to do.....was not working."
"Are you sure that's gonna work?, Said Owl Partita, she was holding the Silence Glaive."

"Well to be honest honey since we're the only ones left here because they just up and left and didn't took that Scythe of Saturn your holding still, I believe the reason I can't use this door is BECAUSE MY BROTHER MADE ME REINCARNATE INTO A HUMAN SO IT SEEMS I'M UNABLE TO OPEN THIS DAMN DOOR!, Said Yōma, as he yelled his last sentence."

"But couldn't you transform into your god form at the Pluto Tower?, Said Owl Partita."
Yōma sighed."
True if I was being cocky.....but I don't think I could even use that even after the battle with Pegasus Seiya (also that Persephone was the one who gave me the ability to use it again and now that I've finally betrayed that goddess I can't use it), it wouldn't even work anyway, and they suspected me to be able to open this door!, I even told Pluto I can do it to get them out but that was one big cocky lie now I guess, but I didn't want her to see like I can't do it, Said Yōma."

"Well how about you try at least one more time?, I'm sure it would work?, Said Owl Partita, trying to give her husband some encouragement to try and free the others from inside."
"Alright one more time...... Once we get them out it's time to stop that Goddess of The Moon!, Said Yōma."

"Yōma held his hand out at the door of Space-time."
MAGICIAN MAGIC OPEN SESAME!, Said Yōma."
"Is he really saying it right.... maybe that's why he can't Open it?, Huh!, Thought Owl Partita."
"Oh!, Said Owl Partita."

"The Door suddenly Started to open, and Yōma's face lit up."
YES I DID!, Yelled Yōma."
"AHHHHHHHH"
"Wait a minute there coming out way to fast!, Said Yōma."

Everyone Came out at once and Yōma was in the way so he accidentally got crushed by everyone why Owl Partita stayed out of the way when she stepped away from Yōma."

"The Saints cloths were back to normal..... however they the original, not from the early days like it was inside the Door of Space-time, but from when they started the journey across the planets before it changed."

"Ow!, Hey are we out of that place finally?, Said Star Healer."
Yeah I believe so, I see Partita, said Cygnus Hyoga, as he looked at her."
"I'm glad you're all back....but do you mind, you may be crushing him to death?, Said Owl Partita, as she pointed at Yōma underneath everyone's......butts."
"Can't........breathe.....too....many, said Yōma, out of breath."

"Everyone got off of him, Scorpio Milo started to look around and saw that Mila still wasn't there."
"Mila?, Mila!, Said Scorpio Milo."
"It's ok Milo.....I have her, she's alright, said Unicorn Jabu, he was holding Mila in his arms who was asleep calming and alright....no a scratch or any other injury on her, she was healthy as a Child her age should be."

"Scorpio Milo looked to have smile but, he seemed a little upset, even though he was able to confront Setsuna about Mila and accepting her to be his daughter..... would Mila do the same still....her future self seemed to accept him but will present Mila need more time to accept him as her father."

"Where's Seiya!, Said Star Fighter, as she asked Owl Partita."
Partita made a grave face."
"When they came out of the Door of Space-time, He....the angel, had Both Seiya and Small Lady, they left with them and Seiya, he woke up but fought with them, and Small Lady Tried to do the same and what she could but couldn't, we couldn't do much as they took them away, they were aiming arrows at your backs so we couldn't really do much to stop them....but I know where they took them, said Owl Partita."

"Andromeda Shun was looking at the Silence Glaive in Owl Partita's Hands, seeing she still had it, but no one seemed to question it, but they knew where."
"They took them to her Sanctuary, said Crane Yuzuriha."
"That's where the Fair maiden is?, But the Crystal Carillon only rang here?, Is Chibi-Usa not with you?".

"Wait what the is that a-?!, Said Unicorn Jabu as he saw Pegasus."
Pegasus had just appeared at the Pluto Castle following the sound of the Crystal Carillon."

"It's a Pegasus?.... although it has the horn of a unicorn on its head?, Are those types of Pegasuses called Alicorns?, Said Scorpio Milo."
I am called Pegasus in this form....but my real name is Helios I'm a priest from Elysium, I've actually been watching over all you with Athena, she send me to help you, said Pegasus."

"Helios?, I believe Chibi-Usa mentioned that name before somewhere, she did say you can take a form of a Pegasus, said Andromeda Shun."
But what do you mean by "Crystal Carillon"?, Said Dragon Shiryu."
"It's the name of the bell, silly".
They turned around and saw the Sailor Quartet; Sailor Ceres was holding the Crystal Carillon now."
Hyoga, Shun, Shiryu and Ikki immediately Recognized them and seeing there Uniforms recognized them as Sailor Guardians."

"Unicorn Jabu looked down at Mila sleeping in his arms, he looked at Star Fighter who seemed worried, it was obvious to him, she was thinking about Seiya."
They knew they had to get him and the others back but staying at the Castle wasn't much of an option, If Goddess Artemis took them back to her Sanctuary, then they will go to another Sanctuary....Athena's Sanctuary."

"Everyone......I think it's best we go back to the Sanctuary....it might be the best place to discuss everything, said Unicorn Jabu."
"Yeah I believe so, said Scorpio Milo, as he understood with the others."
"You can come with us and the Pegasus, said Phoenix Ikki, as he referred to Sailor Quartet and Pegasus."
And so they decided to go to Athena's Sanctuary in Athens, Greece on the Planet of Earth".

(Sanctuary of Artemis)

"Within the Sanctuary of Artemis not so far from Mount Olympus itself, the Home of the Gods, Seiya was pulled into the throne room of Goddess Artemis."

"Seiya could see a lot of Satellites standing in a file line, facing forward on each side and staring too holding their Silver Bows in hand with Quivers full of arrows handing on their backs, none of them made eye contact with Seiya although Seiya felt like they were all looking at him even if their eyes didn't follow him."

"He was forced to kneel down when Odysseus pushed him on his shoulder, Theseus held tightly to the chain which was connected to Seiya's Shackles and prevented him from using his Cosmo."
Seiya looked around him, he didn't see the Sailor Guardians anywhere, but looking up at the Dais, he saw Luna with Artemis the cat in his human from standing beside each other on the left and looking worried at him."
Which he could understand there worry and understand they could do nothing to help him."

"On the right, Callisto stood like the Right-hand man that she was to Goddess Artemis, who Seiya finally focused his eyes on, sitting on her throne with her Moon Staff, she was looking down at him."

"Pegasus......Saint of Athena, you've committed crimes against the Gods and will face that judgement in front of Artemis the Goddess of the Moon!, Said Callisto."
"I wonder where I heard the whole "committing crimes against the gods" from before.....oh right that underworld and Hades Specters, but isn't Nemesis the Goddess of Divine Retribution, and Themis Goddess of Justice, certainly they would be more the ones to pass judgement in this case and none of it would be good for me anyway, thought Seiya."

"First of all, by traveling to the planets of the solar system and seeing its true secrets that are hidden from mortal eyes, you fought with Artemis herself, although those were actually justified but the biggest offense you made was traveling through the Door of Space and Time!, Said Callisto."

"When Seiya heard that, he was shocked that he was accused by it, he only went through the door of Space and Time to save Chibi-Usa, Mila and Diana who were pulled inside, but him being sentenced by that was something he didn't suspect."
"Traveling through Space-time is a crime for anyone no matter if they are God and Mortal, going through time means you have something to change from the past and therefore disrupts the flow of time, Princess Pluto and Chronos her father know it well as Time Gods, and although my goddess cannot be the one to sentence you to that she can have you held accounted for, said Callisto."

"But!, Pluto was the one who let me and the others go in there to save Chibi-Usa, Mila and Diana!, They fell into Space-time!, None of us had any intention of changing time!, Why would you accuse me and only me of this!, Said Seiya, shocked."
The other bronze saints will face their own judgements if they so escape the Zone of Time itself, however for now you must face the sins that you committed not because you're a Saint of Athena, if that we're put into your record then all warriors who fight for other gods will have to face the same punishment, said Callisto."

"Seiya became angry, but tried to ignite his Cosmo but the shackles weakened him, however he could feel the Silver Crystal inside him trying to do the same thing in breaking what was keeping him bound, even though he couldn't control it not to do it or even know how to control the crystal that was now embedded him probably."
He rushed over to Goddess Artemis, which was a shock to everyone in the throne room."

"Seiya!, Said Luna."
Artemis held her back, but Goddess Artemis, still calm and patient had gotten up from her Seat, Theseus tried to hold Seiya back but the Chain snapped from the shackles, however Theseus used a different kind of power from his own Cosmo which connected the Silver Crystal to cease it's power on Seiya."

"Goddess Artemis held her staff and rushed it at him, he was pinned to the ground but alive the Crescent Moon of the Staff around his neck, and it's sharpened pointing at his neck, he couldn't move anymore."
"I've made my verdict from the start, as loyal to the gods as you are Pegasus, you will not face Death as a type of justice for the crimes, you have the Silver Crystal inside you as well and as a precious stone of the Moon you'll be speared, said Goddess Artemis."
"The Silver Crystal is inside him?!, Said Luna, in a low voice."
Artemis whispered to Luna in a low voice and told her everything he knew."
"Wait, You knew!, Why didn't you say any of this-!?, Said Luna."
She saw Callisto looking at her and then she shut up."

"This is my verdict, you will be Imprisoned in the highest tower of the Moon, chained and left to stare at the moon which can only be seen in its full glory in the Sanctuary here, that's my verdict and only I will change it, unless the divine have something else that's important to say, said Goddess Artemis."
She took her staff off Seiya's neck and Odysseus and Theseus picked him up forcefully."
Let go of me!, Wait just a minute!, Said Seiya as he struggled from Odysseus and Theseus grips."

"But Odysseus and Theseus didn't listen they only pulled him away as Goddess Artemis walked back to her throne, Seiya had to ask her why she planned to betray them, after she was the one who brought them to Silver Millennium and set them out to collect the Princesses!, None of anything made sense but there had to be a reason by it!, There was always a reason behind everything."
Yet.....He then Thought of Usagi, he thought of Princess Serenity, she's the Moon Princess from a Royal Bloodline that ruled the Moon, Queen Serenity although dead was the Goddess of The Moon: Selene, so how was Artemis given the title, and why did she still have it when Usagi was recognized as the Moon Princess reborn even though he didn't know of it, shouldn't she had a right still to rule the moon?".

"WHY DID YOU DO IT!, Yelled Seiya, as he was dragged away."
But he finally shouted the reason that he believed Goddess Artemis was doing all of this for and why."
ARE YOU DOING THIS BECAUSE YOU DON'T WANT USAGI TO BE THE MOON GODDESS!, Yelled Seiya."
This made Goddess Artemis stop, he couldn't see her face but he could tell she was mad, as she gripped tightly to the handle of her staff."

"What you say is not true, but I will not discuss it here, said Goddess Artemis."
She calmed down and then Odysseus knocked Seiya out by hitting his Temple of the head, Seiya was dragged away after this."
"You're dismissed, Returned to the Princesses, said Goddess Artemis, she said this to Luna and Artemis, and they left, the Satellites of course said nothing."

"Why didn't you say anything about Seiya having that Silver Crystal inside of him until now!, Said Luna."
"Can you please be quiet about it, we're being followed!, I can tell you about what happened at the Venus Tower that's when I found out about it alongside Shun, Said Artemis, he had told what was happening."
Luna knew to keep Quiet as they walked through Artemis's Sanctuary, She could see Satellites including Satellite Commandos Walk by."
But one of them caught her attention, the one whose armor looked like a cobra; La Scoumone."

"She was watching them when she walked past them, seeming to come over to two Satellite Commandos."
They came into the area of temple shrines with thrones and a courtyard area, this was where the Sailor Princesses were being kept and the two Satellite Commandos standing watching let Artemis and Luna pass."
"Chibi-Usa was there with Setsuna, she had her head on her lap and Setsuna didn't have her Garnet Orb it was probably confiscated by Goddess Artemis when she was Brought to the Sanctuary, yet it only seemed Michiru was able to keep her Deep Aqua Mirror."

"Did you see everything with the Mirror, Michiru, said Luna."
Michiru made a solemn nod that she did, Haruka was beside her."
"How's Saturn?, Said Artemis."
"She's up, and they were kind enough to treat her for the arrow injury she got from that Captain, who when she brought Pluto in, asked them to give her apology to Saturn for shooting her with that technique she called "Crimson Viper", said Haruka."

"Hotaru had come out of the little Saturn temple, she had white bandages which stuck up to the left Side where she was hit by La Scoumone's arrow."
"Hotaru!, Said Chibi-Usa as she came over to her."
I'm glad to see you're alright Chibi-Usa.....where is Mila and Diana, said Hotaru."
"They.....I don't know, they could be the others, I hope so, said Chibi-Usa."

"I'm very concerned about Mila, why wasn't she able to come.....but as long as she stays with Milo and Jabu..... I'll be fine with that, knowing that she's safe is all that really matters, said Setsuna."
"I hope the same for Diana, said Luna."

"How come you never told us you had a daughter?, Said Makoto."

"Setsuna looked up at Makoto."
"That's the problem.....I somehow forgot, I don't know how, someone did it?....and I'm pretty sure I know who it was, said Setsuna."
"Who?, Said Chibi-Usa."
"Artemis.... said Rei."
"Huh?, Said Artemis."
"No not you silly the Moon Goddess, said Minako."
Artemis Nodded but looked to be annoyed."

"I keep getting confused, I really don't like that, but I guess that's how it is when you meet someone with the same name as you, said Artemis."
But Rei, Setsuna why are you saying that Goddess Artemis is involved with us forgetting these memories?, Said Minako."

"Well I don't know if you guys haven't noticed but she was practically acting suspicious from the start, although I'm impressed how well she was able to hold it up for so long, but my Sixth Sense said something was up that's how I got suspicious, said Rei."
"And I now remember everything.....She may have known this from the start that when they went through those temples and towers we would remember not only what Persephone took from us.....but her as well, said Setsuna."

"Setsuna stud up and sighed as she looked at the Moon in Artemis's Sanctuary; Shining huge and brightly."
"When I left Mila at Athena's Sanctuary, I did want to take her back because I realized my mistake, but Goddess Artemis came to stop me, she wanted me to forget that guilt and for a time it helped.....now having that guilt back but knowing that she was safe and happy, it puts Me back in peace that I didn't make her suffer from the decision I made, that was out of Embarrassment and Unnecessary thoughts, said Setsuna."

"Michiru looked at her mirror."
"And I'm certain that the woman who came to my dressing room and gave me my mirror was in fact Goddess Artemis, you must have thought the same thing now haven't you Haruka?, said Michiru."
Haruka nodded, she in fact did."
"Yes, of course I did, when I saw it, that mask she was wearing, she tried to hide her face and disguise her form, but that masquerade mask with Moon symbols said otherwise and I know she was the one who gave me my Space Sword during that Track and Field practice, said Haruka."
"If she really did all those things, then she knew something she knew when we would be reborn, and she knew what may happen, if her intentions are for good, why does she really hate Seiya and the saints or if she doesn't hate them for who they are it would only be because they are humans, but our bodies right now are human too, said Minako."

"There's only one reason.....as the Sailor Guardian of Time, Daughter of Chronos....I know the reason but not entirely, my only guess is that something in the past made her despise humans, and there may be only one place in time in which that could have caused it, but to keep her Relationships with us and to protect us despite our bodies being human themselves, Athena's body is the same, she is human but like us and her, our souls are not, said Setsuna."

"This seemed to make some sense to them a little bit, something happened to Goddess Artemis in the Silver Millennium Era..... Chibi-Usa even thought of this."

"ALL I WANT TO DO IS PROTECT HER FROM HADES'S CURSE!"

"Maybe it's Usagi.....?, Said Chibi-Usa."
The others looked at her when she said this to them."
I think it has something to do with Usagi's Past self as Princess Serenity....maybe it was her death?, Said Chibi-Usa."
"I think you're right Chibi-Usa.....I don't know why but I figured it has something to do with Serenity's death, said Minako."
"The other princesses all came into Agreement."

"I see I think we can all agree on that, but even if we ask her and if she still remembers it which she probably does..... she's not gonna even tell us, said Artemis."
There had to be something, when Seiya was yelling at her, she was definitely angry at what he believed she was doing all of this for, said Luna."
Then otherwise.....even if Seiya has the Silver Crystal inside him, I can say the Determination of his reminds me of Usagi, and like that we protect her, but what is happening now.... Seiya shouldn't be the one to suffer from it, said Minako."

"The others Aggred, they could actually see the Tall tower that Goddess Artemis described where she asked Seiya to be locked up in, it was the only tallest tower....closest to the moon."

"HALT!, WHO GOES THERE!"

"A Guard of Athena's Sanctuary I had said when he heard sounds."
The security of the Sanctuary had been held up more tightly after the attack by the Monsters and Mila's kidnapping."

"Relax it's just me, Unicorn, The Bronze Saint, said Unicorn Jabu."
"Jabu of The Unicorn?!, But they said you went missing in action!, Who are these people with you?".
The Guard of referring to the others they couldn't recognize; The Starlights and Sailor Quartet, Mila was still asleep now on top of Pegasus's back."

"There friends of ours, there's no time to explain bring word to the other saints, we need to speak with all of them you know who, said Scorpio Milo."
The Guard looked at Milo and Deathmask with suspicion since knowing the Gold Saint of Scorpio and the other gold saints died in the Holy War; 9 years ago, but they did what they were told and left, the others went into the Sanctuary following Unicorn Jabu who was in the front with the other bronze saints."

"Unicorn Jabu came over to a house, he took Mila off of Pegasus's Back and the others followed him inside."
Shun opened the shutters so Pegasus could let his head inside, Mila was placed on the bed to rest and tucked in."
"She had it Ruff, Perhaps letting her think this was all a dream would be ok.....but that's not going to be happening, said Phoenix Ikki."

"So are we gonna explain about these other Sailor Guardians, because I don't know when we will be visited soon, said Cancer Deathmask, he was referring to the Sailor Quartet, who were patiently waiting."
"Yes you're right, although when the other Saints at the sanctuary arrive they may not be pleased seeing you most likely confused with me with obvious reasons that can't explain right now, said Scorpio Milo."
"Well we know who they are as being Sailor Guardians, said Sailor Star Maker."

"Yes, I'm Sailor Ceres, Although I told Andromeda my name was CereCere, said Sailor Ceres."
Sailor Ceres introduced her sisters."
"As Sailor Guardians, This is Sailor Pallas, Sailor Juno and Sailor Vesta, we are called the Sailor Quartet, and are Guardians of Princess Small Lady, said Sailor Ceres."
"Wait you're Guardians of Chibi-Usa?!, Said Andromeda Shun, Surprised."

"Yes we are, you could naturally say we do the same thing you do, protect someone special in your case Athena, for us it's Small Lady; Although I think it's best to call her "Chibi-Usa" right?, Said Sailor Vesta."
"Like the same thing as you, Goddess Artemis took our princess and we want to get her back as much as you want to get Seiya back, said Sailor Juno."
"We wanna help you guys, said Sailor Pallas."

"The others could understand that, and they have helped before."
"I'm glad to see you're alright, Jabu, I've heard Mila's with you too."
Kiki came wearing the Aries Gold Cloth, and when he came he looked over to Dragon Shiryu."

"It's nice to see you Shiryu, huh? said Aries Kiki."
Kiki became surprised when he saw Crane Yuzuriha."
Oh this is Yuzuriha, said Unicorn Jabu."
"It's a pleasure to me you, I'm guessing you must be the Lemurian they've talked to, it's a little hard to explain everything but we need your help said Crane Yuzuriha."
"Aries Kiki stopped being surprised and became Serious enough to understand the Situation."

"The others could see behind him, Wolf Nachi, Bear Geki, Lionet Ban and Hydra Ichi were there as well possibly worried mostly about with relief seeing Jabu and Mila were alright, outside Eagle Marin and Ophiuchus Shaina including Chameleon June could be seen."

"Back within the Sanctuary of Artemis, Seiya was kept in the room that was held in the tower."
The Sagittarius Gold Cloth's Tag was taken from him too, and he had new shackles around his arms, he sat in the room which looked like a bedroom meant for a Princess or Prince..... something like out of Rapunzel, there was a bed similar to the Bed in Princess Lady Serenity's Room."
Curtains were on the only window mostly used to block the Moonlight if it became too bright."

"Seiya had nothing to do in there, he was more of a Prisoner in this room which he knew he was anyway."
Looking around he saw something covered by a blanket and walked over to it to see what was under it."
What are these?, Said Seiya."
Seiya saw a white crib, and toys around it, it was sort of like what was seen in the Saturn Temple, but the Crib was white and had little Moon chains as decor."
"Were these all Serenity's?, Like this was her stuff from her childhood?, But why are they here?, Said Seiya."

"Originally this room was supposed to be Serenity's when she was reborn, she could look up at the Moon from here like she did with Earth long ago."

"Seiya knew the voice belonged to Goddess Artemis, she had entered the room through the trapdoor which was the way to get inside the Tower, she looked at him as he looked back at her the moment he turned around to do so."

"Seiya stood there, he was still angry with her, yet she could be the same with him after what he shouted out in front of her entire court of Satellites, Luna and the Other Artemis; Who Seiya saw as the Good one instead of the one in front of him."
"What did you say?, Said Seiya."
Goddess Artemis looked around the room, she was quiet and then she came closer to him, which he tried to step away from."

"This place.....I was once considering it to be a room for Serenity.....if I made a decision to let her grow up here this room would have been hers, said Goddess Artemis."
"You're not making any sense, why keep me in here instead of a dungeon where you're keeping the Gold Saints and Heavenly knights!, said Seiya."
The knights are sealed in there gems, I made sure Mars keeps Phobos and Deimos out of trouble, but your too much important right now for being put in there, you have the Crystal inside you, and of course you wouldn't understand anything since your only mortal, said Goddess Artemis."

"Seiya was getting annoyed all everyone wants is the crystal and now he was stuck with it, he wondered how did Usagi dealt with it, but he couldn't think of it."
"What's so important about this crystal that's so powerful everyone wants their hands on it, I didn't ask it to be inside me!, Said Seiya."
"Well I need it so I can give it back to Serenity, if I don't she will die, said Goddess Artemis."

"When she mentioned about Usagi dying, he remembered his dream, her holding the Sword of Hades, the Curse was passed on to her, which would kill her, he still felt guilty about that and wanted to stop it before it even does kill her."
"The Crystal must be removed from you for me to do so and now that the Curse which weighed you down for 9 years is gone, I really wouldn't know what will happen to you, but all that has made you who you are now able to stand and be strong were because of the crystal's powers, said Goddess Artemis."
Seiya was standing still that he didn't even notice Goddess Artemis touching his chest where the crystal should be embedded in him."

"Seiya didn't really know how to remove the crystal from himself, although it's been done before like when Owl Partita ripped it out believing she could get Tenma to "awakened" from inside Seiya, or when Black Lady tried to stab him with the Black Moon Dagger, or when Mistress 9 try to get it from him as well.....he was annoyed by it, he understood the consequences of having it, he knew he was risking his life with it, but he knew he needed to protect it even from Goddess Artemis....but Serenity, he was the one who he wanted to give the crystal back to and not hand it over to any he couldn't well trust, but he didn't know how it would work."

"I don't even know how to remove the Crystal from me, and if I did, I'll not give it to you, it belongs to Serenity and the Sailor Guardians, said Seiya."
They are Princesses of the Solar system, "Sailor Guardians" is a different title for them, as being a protector-, said Goddess Artemis."
"THEY ARE THE SAILOR GUARDIANS NOW!, Yelled Seiya."
Seiya moved Goddess Artemis's hand away from him."
They were given new lives but you just take it away from them!, Just like Persephone's doing!, That's just what all gods are like except for Athena or Serenity in this case here, Said Seiya."

"Goddess Artemis slapped him then and the look in her eyes tell she was annoyed with him again, but she calmed down."
"You can accuse me, all you want since you're only human, but what you say isn't in the right picture, I wanted to protect Selene's Wish; the one she made with the Silver Crystal before she took her last breath, do you want to know something....that plan that Persephone was using was actually something that I made!, Said Goddess Artemis."
Seiya was surprised when she said that."

"I was only going to use it, if Athena didn't Defeat Hades in the 20th century, when Selene's Wish for Peace in the Princesses to be reborn would finally come, but Persephone used that idea, and then Athena used that stupid game as an ultimatum, which I commend her for as it slow things down a little to keep Persephone distracted with her plans to revive Hades using the Holy Grail which is utterly impossible, but I know something else is driving her I could feel it, said Goddess Artemis."

"That's because it's chaos, said Seiya, as he knew the answer from Chibi-Usa's memories he saw at the Crystal Palace."
Goddess Artemis looked at him when he said that."
Chaos is the one, if that's what you're sensing, they are the ones who are manipulating Persephone, I saw it, said Seiya."
"Gods cannot be Manipulated.....if that were the case something like that would've happened to me, said Goddess Artemis."
"Well apparently they can, can't you believe me, if you really want to protect Usagi!, Said Seiya."

"Serenity!, Said Goddess Artemis, as she corrected him."
They stood there for a moment staring at each other with angry eyes, before it was interrupted enough to cool down the animosity that was filling up in the room."

"Then a Callisto entered from the trapdoor entrance."
My goddess, we have urgent news...., Saints escaped the Time-Zone and have left the Planet of Pluto, they've returned to the Earth, but there is something that must be discussed in private rather than here, it's about Princess Serenity said Callisto."
I see then... I'll see it later, please return to the main entrance I'll be done in a few moments, said Goddess Artemis."
Callisto understood, she looked back at Seiya before closing the Trapdoor and leaving, her footsteps could be heard on the stone steps as she walked down."

"I have to discuss other matters it seems, I'll leave to think about how the Silver Crystal can be removed by your own will, a hint like I did before during our duel, it can only be removed by great anguish and Sacrifice, that's what emotions both Serenity and Selene had to do in order to activate it's full power..... unfortunately that is what killed Selene and it may kill you anyway, said Goddess Artemis."

"Goddess Artemis left and Seiya stood there unable to do anything."
He looked out the window, he thought of how it felt to be Imprisoned, he looked up at the full moon and hoped that things would try and get better maybe his friends will come and save him was all that he could really think about, instead of trying to end it....he was having those thoughts when looking out the window....but he knew they were dumb and lead nowhere then the place of dead, where he fought the ruling god of, his thoughts lead nowhere."

(Sanctuary, Greece)

"Mila started to open her eyes, she looked around the room, she recognized it this was always where she would sleep when she was in her home which was sanctuary, the place she grew up in."
Mila looked over and saw Ophiuchus Shaina and Chameleon June were in the room mostly in the room, they didn't have the masks on, since it was just them they there were all female."

"Ophiuchus?.....Chameleon?, Said Mila, her voice was low as she was still waking up."
"I see you're awake now, Mila, said Ophiuchus Shaina."
Are you feeling alright?, Said Chameleon June."

"Mila stood up from the bed."
I think so....but I felt like I had the most craziness of dreams?, I think I saw my mother?, and something about planets?, Where's Jabu?, Said Mila."
Chameleon June looked up at Ophiuchus Shaina."
"Think we should remind her?, Said Chameleon June."
I don't care what people say in making something crazy and pretend it was a dream when it was real, besides even as humans were not normal people, said Ophiuchus Shaina."

"Ophiuchus Shaina looked at Mila and explained everything that she could.... from what she had been told, and saying so it made Mila remembered just about everything that had occurred even meeting her future self."

"And that's about it from what I know that is, I have no idea what they thought in trusting Athena's half-sibling, but now they are planning on how to infiltrate her Sanctuary and save everyone, said Ophiuchus Shaina."
"It surprises me to see Scorpio and Cancer are alive and well, Kiki was surprised to see them too, including that woman who's of the same tribe as him and wears the Crane Cloth from the Silver Rank, although she mentions to come from the 18th Century and is like the same going on with Scorpio and Cancer, said Chameleon June."

"Scorpio?, Said Mila."
When hearing "Scorpio" she remembered Milo and knew Milo was her dad."
Mila got out of the bed and was gonna leave the room but Ophiuchus Shaina got in the way."
"Where do you think you're going right now?, Said Ophiuchus Shaina."
I have to go see Scorpio.....I wanna talk to him, said Mila."
But you should still rest, after everything that's happened, said Chameleon June."

"Mila shook her head."
Thank you for looking out for me you two, but I must go speak to him because I want too, he's my dad, said Mila."
Mila went past Ophiuchus Shaina and she didn't stop her, Mila Walked outside and went to go find Scorpio Milo."
"She looked to find the group everyone together explaining a plan to rescue Seiya and the Sailor Guardians and how to get into Artemis's Sanctuary."

"She made sure no one would see her, she saw Unicorn Jabu, and although she wanted to go up to him and be with him, after all he was mostly a father to her for taking her in and raising her, but she could see he was busy and focused and she didn't want to disturb him and the others but she overheard the conversation from a distance."

"Sneaking into Artemis's Sanctuary won't be easy, I don't know much of the layout since I've never been there before, but Judging by her Satellite's being warriors of her, knowing in myth that she is a good shot, that would mean the Satellite's are good shots as well, said Aries Kiki, as he explained."
So how would we be able to get in?, I didn't suspect this would happen she was an ally until she decided to Betray for whatever goal she truly had in mind, Said Star Fighter."

"If we're gonna infiltrate we need to be stealthy The best way to do it is either by disguise or distraction something they wouldn't see coming, said Eagle Marin."
"Ok so what would be easy for us to get in undetected?....hm?, Said Star Healer, she had put her hip on her back and left something was in her shorts so she took it out....it was the Moon Compact which belonged to Minako."

"Wait isn't that?, Minako's Compact, when she was Sailor V?!, Said Andromeda Shun, surprised upon seeing it."
It is?, But I don't remember keeping it on myself this long?, Said Star Healer."
"So wait was it like.....in your shorts butt the entire time-OW!, Said Hydra Ichi."
Sailor Star Healer hit him in the head, with her face red in embarrassment."
"YOU BETTER NOT BE GETTING IDEAS!, Yelled Star Healer."
I WASN'T!, I WAS JUST SAYING!, Yelled Hydra Ichi."

"Mila giggled a little but she muffled it so they wouldn't hear her."
She couldn't see Scorpio Milo was with them, and only saw Cancer Deathmask, so she thought of another place where to find him...the Scorpio Temple."
Although going up to the 12 Temples was forbidden, something which Unicorn Jabu had told her time and time again, she decided to take the risk, just be sneaky besides if Milo was up there it should be alright and no one would notice, she practically knew her were way around the Sanctuary anyway."

"As Mila left, Diana saw her leave and decided to join her, no one saw her leave."
Mila came to the Aries Temple and stood there for a moment looking at it."
"I've always heard stories about how Seiya, Shun, Shiryu and Hyoga went through these temples to save Athena from the Golden Arrow in her chest, standing here I feel just like them in the moment ready to do the same.....but let's see if I want to go to the Scorpio Temple?, I'll have to pass 7 Temples it seems a bit hard but I think I'll be alright I don't have any Ill intent and I'll use my Cosmo to protect myself?, Said Mila, as she talked to herself."
"Although I really still don't know how to control it probably yet, thought Mila."

"Mila?, Said Diana."
Mila turned surprised but when she saw it was only Diana she calmed down."
"Oh it's only you.....I thought I got caught for a second?, Said Mila."
Diana came up to Mila."
"What are you doing?, Are these the 12 Temples?, Wow their big? Or maybe it looks like that because I'm in Cat form right now, said Diana."
Diana then Transforms into her human form, the gray tail in the back wagging along as she stretched for a moment."

"I'm looking for Milo, I feel like I want to talk to him.....about....you know being my father, I want to confront him about it, and I felt the only way of doing it was going to the Scorpio Temple because I don't see him with the others, said Mila."
Do you think he's up there?, Said Diana."
"I don't know.....but something just tells me I'll find him there, you won't tell the others..... I'm not really supposed to go to the 12 Temples, Jabu says it's dangerous, and I do understand it, but I feel like I should go, said Mila."
"Hm....ok my lips are sealed, but I'll come with you so you're not alone if that's ok with you, said Diana."
"Well I don't want to get you in trouble, but if you wanna come I won't stop you, just be careful, said Mila."

"Mila looked up at the temples and then went inside them."
Knowing when she hit the Aries Temple, Kiki was gonna know she entered or just knew someone was entering it."
"Hm?, Said Aries Kiki."
Is something wrong, Kiki?, Said Bear Geki."
"I just felt something in my Cosmo near the temples?....but I believe it's nothing that serious, said Aries Kiki."
"Should you check?, Said Sailor Juno."
"I suppose so....you can take it from here I won't take long, said Aries Kiki, as he left to go where he felt the disturbance."

"The others went back to planning."
So you said this Moon Compact can make any disguise?, Said Eagle Marin."
"From what Artemis said; yes, and I mean a different Artemis which is a white cat, Diana's father basically, although I'm sure only one person can use this, said Star Healer."
"Ok I got an idea, we can use Circus talents as a distraction for the guards at the entrance, and move up with one of us wearing a disguise to help the others sneak in, said Sailor Vesta."

"Are you sure it would work?, Said Phoenix Ikki."
Only know when it happens, but if it backfires we'll run right in there and attack, they can't take us all down, said Sailor Vesta."
"And it'll get that Goddess's attention for sure, said Sailor Pallas."

"Well if she does, she's most likely capable of killing all of us, it's not just Seiya and The Sailor Guardians we have to save, but the Gold Saints; Pisces Aphrodite, Capricorn Shura and Aquarius Camus, and of course the knights that belong to Tuxedo Mask who we've told you about, said Star Maker."
"So it ain't only me and Milo, they are "Alive" in some way too?, Said Cancer Deathmask."

"They made up the plan in what they would and to also split up the same."
Some of them would head to find where Seiya's being held, go free the Gold Saints and Heavenly knights and Sailor Guardians of the Solar system."

"Scorpio Milo was at the Scorpio Temple, he was looking down at the stars and reminiscing his time of being alive and as the Scorpio Gold Saint."
He was still, he guessed, he was wearing the Gold Cloth of Scorpio."
"HEY COME BACK HERE!"
Milo heard yelling from one of the Sanctuary Guards, He looked and saw Mila and Diana running away and looking to be out of breath from running all the way up the 7 steps and Temples to get here."
"Oh man.....I probably should help them?, said Scorpio Milo, with a sigh but seemed to be amused on seeing Mila."

"I'm sorry!, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!, Said Mila."
"SORRY AIN'T GONNA CUT IT!, IT'S PROHIBITED TO BE IN THIS AREA!"
"SHOULDN'T YOU BE SAYING THAT FOR YOURSELF!, Yelled Diana."
"I'M A GUARD, I HAVE A RIGHT IN THE MOMENT WHICH IS CHASING YOU INTRUDERS!"
"They were all running around one huge pillar before Scorpio Milo showed up."
"It's ok, they're here to see me, said Scorpio Milo."
They all stopped running and looked at Scorpio Milo."
You can leave, said Scorpio Milo, he said to the guard, who listened and left leaving Mila and Diana alone."

"Oh he's finally gone, said Diana."
Scorpio Milo then looked at the two and they both got scared, they felt like they were about to be lectured and scolded at."

"You know he wouldn't have been chasing you if you hadn't made yourself obvious, even if there are no gold saints in the temples practically anymore they have there duty to protect this area, especially since it's dangerous, these structures are old, you should be careful coming up all this way, and still if all the gold saints at the bottom from the Scorpio Temple were still here, they wouldn't let you through especially not easily even if you had a reason you need there permission including the Pope's, this sort of thing did happen in 1987 for a reason but you were lucky enough since no new Gold Saints have been promoted by Athena yet except for Kiki, said Scorpio Milo."

"I'm sorry, really I also allowed Diana to come with me, but the reason I came all this way was to see you, said Mila."
Scorpio Milo looked at Diana who was near Mila and was twirling her fingers as a distraction for embarrassment."
But Milo Smiled at Mila."
"You know I kind of suspect that was your reason, said Scorpio Milo."

"He took Mila with him to the Scorpio Temple, and Diana stayed far away from them so they could be alone, but she stayed in sight so they could see her."
They stood there for a few minutes, quietly looking up at the Stars and Constellations."

"It doesn't matter where you are in the Sanctuary, you can see all of the Constellations here, but at the 12 Temples; the Zodiacs can be seen, if you look right there that's Antares, said Scorpio Milo as he pointed out the Star and that Scorpio Constellation."
"Wow?, For some reason it looks Scarlet like the color of your nail?, Said Mila, as she looked at Milo's Nail where he creates the attack "Scarlet Needle", he was using it to point at the Antares Star."
Yeah you're right.... I'm sure you inherited the ability to use the attack because you are my daughter after all, said Scorpio Milo, was looking at his Scarlet nail when he stopped pointing at the Constellation."

"Yeah but I can't control my Cosmo that well, and it doesn't come out of my nails, it's my hair it turns red and shoots like I'm a porcupine, said Mila."
Scorpio Milo sort of laughed when Mila called herself a "Porcupine".
"Well they do have quills which is like Needles they can be unattached them but they can't shoot them that's actually a myth, but it's how that type of rodent defends itself, but I wouldn't say you were one, although I think it's a nice skill they wouldn't see it coming, said Scorpio Milo."
"Milo.... said Mila."
Scorpio Milo looked at Mila."

"Yes what is it?, Said Scorpio Milo."
It's about you and Setsu.....If things were different would you accept me as your "Daughter", said Mila."
Milo was a bit confused when she said that."
"But I do call you my daughter, because you are, said Scorpio Milo."
I know and I want to call you "Dad", but I'm talking about what I saw in Setsu's memories she was very Scared that you found out, you'll kill her, although at the time she had no idea she was a Sailor Guardian, said Mila."

"Scorpio Milo started to think about it."
"It has to be him.....and that's bad, Is he going to kill me and you?, No he wouldn't do something like that, or I hope he wouldn't, but he would be mad, wouldn't he?....I don't know."
"Scorpio Milo remembered these are what Setsuna from the memories said."

"Uh yeah that..... I'm pretty sure I wouldn't, I wasn't that type of person although I am powerful as a Gold Saint should be, but even if I did know protecting you and Setsuna would be important, but I think she should have kept it a secret, there's a lot of dangerous people who could be a threat and hurt you too and I wouldn't want you to be in that way, I really don't have an actual answer although past me would probably been too prideful to even think about it or care?....I really wouldn't know, said Scorpio Milo."

"Prideful?, What you mean by that?, You very kind?, Said Mila."
Well of course that's true, that's because I believe in Justice, but I was sort of a jerk back then, it was before I met Setsuna, Hyoga was kind of the one who may have taught me a lesson or two, said Scorpio Milo."
Milo then looked over to Mila and patted her on the back."
"Let's not think about what could have happened, everything is already over and either way I'm proud to be your father, I hope you can call me "Dad" but I'll let you decide, because I know I accepted you to be my daughter and you are made from love and care, that's all that matters to me when I see you, and I want to make sure you have a wonderful life on this planet and nowhere else, said Scorpio Milo."

"Mila smiled, she then leaned her head on Milo's lap and closed her eyes for a moment."
"I love Daddy, said Mila."
Diana was watching this and she smiled; thinking of her own relationship with her father too."

"Am I interrupting something?".

"Mila looked with Scorpio Milo and Diana as Aries Kiki approached them."
"Kiki, said Mila."
No you're not interrupting anything, you've come to the end of it.... I'm guessing you must be here because everyone's ready with the plan, I'm sorry for leaving I really just felt like being left alone for a while, said Scorpio Milo, he looked at Mila when he said this."
"It's alright....and I believe they should be done now, since I can't use teleportation up here I had to walk all the way, and overheard one of the Guards being a little grumpy, said Aries Kiki, he too was looking at Mila including Diana."

"I should be going now, Mila let me walk you back down to Sanctuary with Diana, said Scorpio Milo."
Ok, said Mila."
"Scorpio Milo, Aries Kiki, Mila and Diana went back down past the 7 houses before the Scorpio Temple."
At the bottom the others were there."
"Mila!, How many times have I told you not to go up to the 12 Temples!, Said Unicorn Jabu, scolding her."
But I was looking for Daddy!, I had no choice, said Mila with a pouting face."

"After this everyone got ready, Mila was told to stay at the Sanctuary which is said "she'll do." But not actually."
I know I told them I wouldn't go and stay at the sanctuary but even if I don't have control of my Cosmo, I could still fight, besides I have someone else I want to call "Mommy" someone who I wish to call that truly for 9 years of my life, "Setsu", I'm going to save Mommy no matter what!, Thought Mila."

"Mila was Picking up rock-like pebbles and putting them into a pouch, which she tightened around her waist with a rope, she was still wearing the old clothes of Princess Pluto when she was a child."
When she was done doing this, she saw Pegasus waiting for her with Diana in Cat Form, they were going with her."
"Are you ready.....fair maiden, said Pegasus."

"Mila smiled and nod."
Yes I am, I guess you couldn't really go or you'll look too suspicious, but let's try and not mess up there plan, we have our own but we need to keep it from being revealed, said Mila."

"Mila climbed onto Pegasus's Back, Diana hid in Mila's chest of her chiton."
Ok ready!, Said Mila."
Pegasus spread his wings and then he flew up into the sky, the bronze Saints at the sanctuary watched her leave."
"Should we tell the others?, Said Lionet Ban."

"No she'll be fine, she has someone to rescue too, said Bear Geki."
"And I believe one day....... Mila is going to become a loyal saint and Sailor Guardian, said Ophiuchus Shaina."
