“I noticed how you didn't like his actions towards the Guardian.” Saturn said as she sat on a nearby stump.
“I just don't know why he acts that way, but then I like it when he does it to me. He really is a good person.” Sango looked at Saturn hoping that she had the answer.
“Sango have you ever told him how you feel?” Saturn asked as she looked up at the starry sky.
“Well, no.” Sango looked down in embarrassment. “I'm too scared that he doesn't feel the same.”
“Sango let me give you some advice.” Saturn stood and walked up to Sango. “If you don't say anything and something were to happen then you'll regret never saying anything.” Sango looked at Saturn knowing that she was right.
“But how do I tell him? What if he doesn't feel the same? What if…”
“What if he does? There is always the “what ifs”, but you'll never know until you try.” Saturn smiled and placed her hand on Sango's shoulder. “Besides you two will be friends no matter what happens.”
“Thank you Saturn.”
“No problem Sango. But you should take my advice.” Sango nodded understanding what Saturn meant. “Now let's get back. You can meet some of our alleys.”
“Alleys?”
“Yes, we can't fight the Dark Warriors alone.”
“Are these Dark Warriors really that dangerous?” Sango followed Saturn back to the group.
“They are born from evil. They feel no remorse for their actions. To be honest they've been really quite lately and that makes me nervous.”
“What are you two talking about?” Inuyasha asked as Sango and Saturn approached them.
“The Dark Warriors.”
“They don't sound so bad.”
“Don't be fooled Inuyasha. Even the Guardian couldn't fight them alone and she is the strongest warrior in the realm.”
“I could take them.” Inuyasha crossed his arms to prove his point.
“I doubt that.” Saturn looked very serious which made Kagome nervous. “They are extremely powerful and the only reason we have been able to keep them at bay for so long is because we have grown stronger over time.”
“Hello young Princess.” A young man said as he walked up to the group. He wore a black armor with a sword strapped to his side. His eyes were black and looked lifeless.
“Hello Blackhorn. Glad you could be here.” Saturn hugged the young man.
“Glad to be here. Did Blackcat talk to you?”
“No, why?” Saturn looked concern as she stared into Blackhorn's eyes.
“Wolvalockes were traveling through the Shadow Forest. No one seems to know why.”
“That's strange, but maybe they were looking for something.”
“What are wolvalockes?” Kagome asked as the two warriors looked at her as if they forgot her presence along with the others.
“They are creature created by the Dark Warriors. They are part wolf, unicorn, and mountain lion. They are powerful but they only have specific powers.” Blackhorn said.
“For example one is named Chaos. He can create balls of energy with his hands while Crusher has incredible strength.” Saturn explained.
“So what's the big deal?” Inuyasha asked.
“They are known to cause problems because they do the Dark Warriors dirty work. We face wolvalockes more then the Dark Warriors.” Saturn said.
“Oh.”
“Anyway young one, I must be going.” Blackhorn bowed to Saturn and left to join the festivities.
The group stayed silent for a while as they ate food from nearby tables and then finally decided to chat about other things. “So Saturn what exactly happens at this festival besides what's going on now?” Kagome asked.
“You'll see.” Saturn smiled and gestured for them to follow her. They came to a clearing at the end of the festival were Starfire and Moonstriker stood facing each other. They both drew their weapons and lunged at each other. They fought hand to hand until the separated quickly. Starfire got a smirk on her face and started to spin her staff above her head.
“STRIKE OF THE NIGHT!” she yelled. Lights came crashing down form the sky barely be blocked by Moonstriker's shield as the nearby ground cracked and broke as the lights touched it. The earth shook from the attack.
“Nice try.” Moonstriker smiled at her sister as she raised her sword directly over her head. “SEA DRAGON TIDALWAVE!” A giant wave rose up behind Moonstriker and twisted into the shape of a sea dragon before it lunged at Starfire knocking her backwards. Starfire quickly got to her feet and mumbled something under her breath. Suddenly a large dragon appeared from nowhere and swung its tail knocking Moonstriker against a nearby tree.
“How do you like that one?” Moonstriker glared at her sister as she rose back up on her feet before bowing.
“What just happened?” Miroku asked.
“Moonstriker just admitted defeat to her sister.” Saturn then stepped forward grabbing two large metal rings from her hips that she called Kylatas. She held them between her index and middle fingers as she took a fighting stance in front of Starfire. Starfire mumbled under her breath again and the dragon lunged at Saturn. Saturn closed her eyes placing her hand in front of her face as if she was praying. The dragon them hit a force field that surround Saturn, which sent it flying backwards. Saturn smiled as Starfire bowed to her.
“Saturn can create force fields?” Inuyasha asked curiously.
“Yes.” Starfire grumbled as she joined the group.
“What exactly is this?” Sango asked Starfire who looked like she was pouting.
“It's a type of face-off. The Unicorns like it because it shows how powerful we are and whose the best fighter. Kind of like rooting for your favorite warrior type of thing.” Starfire said as she smiled at who stepped into the clearing ready to face Saturn. “And now Saturn is going to lose.”
Inuyasha and the group looked at Saturn's challenger to see it was Neptune. Neptune stood straight up like she wasn't even going to put in an effort into fight Saturn. Saturn lunged at Neptune trying to striker her with the Kylatas. Neptune easily jumped out of the way. Saturn then turned throwing all six of her Kylatas in the process yelling, “STRIKE OF THE HEAVENS!”
The rings glowed as they flew towards Neptune. Neptune then drew her spear from her back and knocked away each of the Kylatas. She then placed her spear in front of her as she said in a very calm voice, “Curse of the Cyclone.” A strong wind came from nowhere creating a cyclone before everyone. It picked Saturn off the ground and flung her into a boulder nearby. Saturn sunk to the ground and nodded her head admitting defeat to Neptune.
All the other Sun Warriors tried to beat Neptune but each failed. Inuyasha noticed that Neptune barely put in as much effort as the other Sun Warriors in their attacks but yet hers seemed stronger. As Pluto admitted defeat Inuyasha stepped into the clearing drawing his sword taking a fighting stance in front of Neptune.
Neptune chuckled as if she was amused by his actions. Inuyasha grew angry and lunged at Neptune. Neptune stepped to the side as Inuyasha ran past her. He turned quickly again trying to strike at Neptune, but he failed. After a few attempts of trying to hit the warrior Inuyasha decided to use his wind scar. Neptune split the wind scar before it could reach her.
“Cyclone of Destruction.” Neptune barely whispered as her attack came upon Inuyasha.
“BACKLASH WAVE!” Inuyasha yelled as he sent Neptune's Attack right back at her. Neptune stopped the attack before it reached but smiled at Inuyasha before she bowed to him. People watching gasped as Neptune walked away. Inuyasha then returned his sword to its sheath and walked back to the group.
“Well done Inuyasha. No one has ever been able to last as long as you did. I'm surprised the Guardian admitted defeat to you.” Starfire said as she patted Inuyasha on the back.
“I couldn't believe it myself. She really is powerful.” Inuyasha said in shock because he knew one more attack from her would have beaten him. “I guess if she can't beat these Dark Warriors that everyone keeps mentioning then they must be powerful.”
Starfire smiled and shook her head as she led the group away from the clearing. `Well since Plan A didn't work because of Rocakao, I guess we'll have to work on Plan B and make sure nothing gets in the way.' She looked at Inuyasha and Kagome and smiled as she notice Inuyasha offer Kagome a ride on his back because she was getting tired.
