Ronin Warriors Fan Fiction / Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ Silent Warrior: The Phoenix' Flames ❯ New Haven Academy's Secret: The Messiah of Maelstrom Revealed ( Chapter 33 )

“The next SAT exam is going to be held at New Haven Academy! Now that I think about it, anything called an exam is dominated by Rese. It makes me a little bit jealous, but if you use words like `slip, fail, or fall,' when talking about me, I'll punish you in the name of the Phoenix!”

In the opening credits, Veronica is now filled in on the Rapturers 5/Order of the Revelation part. Only one Rapturer remains to be revealed.

Silent Warrior: The Phoenix' Flames

Episode 122

The guys are all at Styve's place discussing the student ID Taneesha left behind.

“Was she another Youkai Demon Knight?” Tyrone asks.

“Yes. There are 11 of us in our clan. You all met Maximus, Goliath, and Des Demona, led by the second oldest of the clan, Sacred, when we fought Lord Yggdrasil. The remaining warriors are Elmyra of the flame, Marcella of the charm, Taneesha of the plant, Veronica of technology, and the twins Crypto and Pando of witchcraft. They each have a human identity, but I don't know what they are.”

“Then there's you as Tauro Demos,” Athena adds.

“But that only makes 10, unless you count the twins as two,” Prometheus says.

“Well, there's the last one, the oldest of us, Des Demoné, but Tauro Demos isn't sure what happened to him after the Silver Millennium Revolution. But regardless, it seems that New Haven Academy is connected with the Order of the Revelation after all.”

“Makes sense,” Damon comments. “Why not use people they already know and trust?”

“Guys, you won't believe this,” TJ shouts, bursting through the doors. “Rese is the smartest kid I know. He got first place on the SATs with a perfect score.”

“I wasn't the only one to get first place,” Tyrese corrects. “This girl, Valery Mocha, from New Haven Academy tied with me.”

“Wow, you tied with someone from that school?” Styve exclaims.

“The next exam is at the academy, so we can sneak in there while all the kids are testing,” Tyrone plans.

“We don't have registration tickets though,” Damon says.

“We're not going to take the exam B; all we need to do is be at the site.”

“I've been automatically signed up for the second exam since I got first on the first exam, so there's no need for us to sneak in,” Tyrese says. “You all can just be spectators.”

New Haven Academy's Secret: The Messiah of Maelstrom Revealed

Later, the guys are standing in line outside of the academy.

“Wow, there sure are a lot of people here to take the exam,” Styve comments.

“You wouldn't see me giving up my Saturday mornings for this crap,” TJ states. “Especially with a thunder storm coming.”

“Yeah Teej, these guys are nothing like you.”

“Meaning what demon-cow boy?”

“Meaning hard work and dedication to your future just aren't words to describe you.”

The guys all sigh and Tyrese shyly looks away.

Upstairs, Katherine and Professor King are watching.

“We sure have a lot of students here today,” Professor King says to her.

“New Haven Academy is becoming more popular with its high caliber education,” she responds. “Those that are gathered here are especially intelligent.”

They then spot TJ and his group.

“Well, there are some that don't seem that way,” she says as they watch TJ eating a bag of chips. “But, the enthusiasm these youngsters have towards the SATs is truly amazing.”

“Haven't we seen that school uniform before?” Professor King asks.

“Yes,” Katherine replies. “Each was a Pure Heart Crystal target. They are all probably here to watch that boy,” she says, pointing to Tyrese.

“You idiot, that boy is probably a Brother Soldier!” a girl says coming into the room.

The two turn around to see Valery, a young blonde girl with piercing blue eyes, standing behind them.

“Ah, Veronica, it's good to see you. Is everything going according to plan?” the professor asks.

“Oh yes,” she replies. “Smooth as silk. My project is ready. I've circuited the terminals the students will be using to take their pure hearts when I give the command.”

She begins to leave when she looks at Katherine.

“Why don't you do something useful instead of standing there? I'm sure there's some garbage to be taken out somewhere. Cut the flirt act.”

“I've got to find Eugene,” Timmy thinks to himself, running downtown. “Huh, Ashley is following me.”

Ashley watches Timmy continue to run down the sidewalk from her car. As she begins to pull off, she sees David in her rearview mirror. Timmy finally reaches his destination: Eugene's house.

“Where did Krys-tal take him?” he asks. “I know you're around here somewhere…”

* * *

Inside the building, the guys are all discussing the other students.

“Everyone looks so serious,” Damon says.

“They're just serious about studying,” Tyrese corrects. “They want to do good so they can get to good colleges so they can have great careers.”

Just then, Valery comes down some stairs and up to the guys.

“So, you must be Tyrese Anderson-Gibson,” she says. “I've heard so much about you, and I've been wanting to meet you for a while now.”

“Rese is really smart,” TJ says popping up.

“Oh, and who are you?”

“No one important enough to be taking one of these exams.”

“You must be intelligent to be one of Tyrese's friends. What are your best subjects?”

“My friends says it's eating, but I think it's sleeping,” TJ replies.

“You have got to be joking. Anyway, I have something I want to show you, Mr. Gibson.”

With that, she drags him off and the guys are left puzzled. Outside a storm is brewing.

“Something is going to happen today,” Elliott says. “The land is roaring with a dark aura.”

“Yes, I can feel it in the wind,” Jacoby responds. “Today we will meet the Messiah of Maelstrom. If these walls could talk, they'd tell of tales no school should know.”

In a dark room, Valery is showing Tyrese projects that have been constructed by the science club.

“This is our prize piece,” she says, pointing to a globe. “It's a mini-universe known as the Tao Nebula.”

“Wow, that's unbelievable,” Tyrese exclaims. “But the Tao Nebula is where the Youkai Demon Knights are from…”

“See, here at New Haven Academy, the talented are only accepted, and this would be the perfect place for you. We specialize in philosophy, entertainment, science, physical education, and professional experience. In some classes, the upperclassmen even teach the class while the teacher sits back and watches. That, of course, is only reserved for elite students like me.”

“That sounds all good and all, but just because someone is smart doesn't mean they are ready to lead a class. Intellect doesn't make for a good leader. A good leader is someone who can understand the hearts and minds of those that aren't just good in academics, but also poor in academics.”

“Whatever. You're making an emotional argument about science. In science, there is no need for understanding, just logic. I thought you and I would be able to be friends but it seems that maybe I was wrong. Well, there's the bell, I have class to attend to.”

Tyrese stays behind a minute looking at the small universe.

“Didn't Tauro Demos say something about the Tao Nebula?” he asks himself.

“There's something suspicious about that Gibson boy,” Professor King says to Katherine back in his principal's office.

“He could be a Brother Soldier,” Katherine agrees.

“Of course he could be,” Valery says coming into the room. “I'll find out who he really is.”

“Professor, let me do it,” Katherine suggests.

“Oh back off, you're just jealous!” Valery says, shoving her out of the way. “Professor King, I've programmed my nano-robots into every computer in the school. I can control them with this bracelet I've designed. It's kind of like a mood ring, changing to whatever I want it to.”

She starts to leave when she looks over at Katherine.

“Why did you come back Krys-tal?” she asks. “Did you just want to play around with the professor some more?”

Katherine gets mad and Valery leaves. In another room, she activates the computer through her bracelet.

“It's time for Pure Heart Crystals to be mine,” she says.

* * *

Upstairs, TJ and Tyrone are watching some students taking the exam.

“Wow, they're working so hard,” Tyrone states.

Suddenly the students' Heart Crystals are taken out and dragged into the computers.

“We've got to find out who's doing this,” Tyrone says.

“Ty, it's time to go to work.”

“Right.”

“Armor of the Phoenix, Transform!”

“Dark Dagger, Power!”

* * *

“It seems someone is taking the kids' Heart Crystals,” Jacoby says to Elliott, running down a long corridor.

“The answers to our questions have got to be at the end of this hallway,” Elliott says.

“I just hope my master access card works.”

The hallway ends and the two are at a door. Jacoby uses the pass and the door opens. They then see someone sitting on a throne type chair.

“Who is that up there?” Jacoby asks.

“It's the Messiah of Maelstrom!” Elliott exclaims.

“The evil that can never be born will die here today!”

They start to run towards him, to kill him, when someone yells at them.

“Stop!” Tyrese says, throwing his blue dagger in front of them.

“Huh? Tyrese?” they both exclaim.

“The Order of the Revelation has been taking advantage of him,” Tyrese explains. “He doesn't have anything to do with this, he's just an innocent.”

“This is the root of all evil who will seal away the entire world into a place of silence,” Jacoby yells.

“I won't let you harm Eugene King. You'll have to get past me first if you want to hurt an innocent human.”

He runs over to protect him, when Valery walks in.

“Elliott Jones, Jacoby Watson, you two know students aren't allowed here,” she says. “And Tyrese Anderson-Gibson, how convenient you made it down here. I know who you are, now it's time for you to know who I am.”

With this comment, she throws off her clothes to reveal a female knight's armor that is blue and white. She has small white horns on her head, flowing black hair, and white skin. There are military markings on the shoulders of her armor, and circuitry on her back as well as small demonic white wings. On her forehead is a sky blue demonic symbol.

“I am the former Youkai Demon Knight Veronica, and you are now about to feel the power of the Rapturers 2! May the merciless embrace of frost take thee: Rapturer Veronica; Mosaic Buster!”

A swarm of nano robots goes flying towards Elliott and Jacoby and they are knocked to the ground, being slightly electrocuted and frozen at the same time. She then fires at Tyrese, but he dodges and they hit some balloons on the messiah's chair. The popping sound starts to wake him up.

“Such idealism to sacrifice yourself to save your friends leads to your death!” Veronica laughs.

“That's enough. Dark Ice-Dagger Power!”

Tyrese transforms, then the dagger strikes and he goes into a speech.

“What's this?”

“My turn for introductions; I'm a soldier of peace, a fighter for might and justice, I am Dark Sabre.”

“Ha! I knew it all along; you are a Brother Soldier!”

“Shut up you dumb bitch, aren't you just special? You use your powers for evil and it's time you got defeated with the powers of ice.”

“Whatever you say. Rapturer Veronica; Mosaic Buster!”

“Dark Ice Blizzard Storm!”

The attack freezes the robots.

“That was a waste of time,” Veronica says. “These robots move way too fast to be frozen by your cheap tricks.”

They then break free of the ice and attack Dark Sabre.

“These little guys will stab into your body until only your pure Brother heart is left.

“It's wrong to misuse science!” Dark Sabre argues.

Just then the doors burst open and four daggers strike in front of Veronica.

“Back off you science shrew! You think you can wipe out our smartest Brother Soldier? Think again. I'm Silent Warrior and in the name of the Phoenix, I will end your little science fair.”

“Veronica, as your older brother, I command you stop!” Tauro Demos growls.

“Just try and stop me, Tauro Demos!” Veronica yells, throwing another Mosaic Buster.

Tuaro Demos counters her attack with one of his fire balls.

“Hey, Valery,” Jacoby yells out.

“What?” she asks, turning around.

“Dark Hawk-Dagger Power!”

“Dark Tiger-Dagger Power!”

“What, no way! I didn't expect you two to be Brothers also!” she yells as they transform.

“Hawk's Sheer Feathers!”

“Tiger's Paw Slash!”

The two attacks hit directly and she is thrown to the ground.

“Sacred Phoenix Power! Your beaker's buster sister; time for you to pay for your wrong doings.”

“Sacred Silent Warrior! Just try to destroy me!” Veronica cries, getting up.

“Phoenix Swords Clash!” (last time it's used for the season)

“Rapturer Veronica; Mosaic Buster!”

They both attack, but Sacred Silent Warrior's attack is stronger, and the attack hits her bracelet, causing the robots to get confused and attack her.

“No nano, you've got the wrong person, get Sacred Silent Warrior!” she cries.

The robots keep swarming her until her body just disappears.

“This is what happens when you use science and don't put emotion into it, just realization,” Dark Sabre says picking up her bracelet. “I'm sorry you had to find out this way.”

“Tauro Demos, don't you need to do that talisman thing?” Sacred Silent Warrior asks.

“No, these Demon Knights are different,” he replies. “They will return back to the Tao Nebula, and be reborn.”

“Veronica has failed,” Professor King says to Katherine in his office.

“Too bad for her,” Katherine thinks sarcastically. “She was so arrogant. Good riddance. Now I don't have to think of a way to kill her myself.”

“We now know who the Brother Soldiers are,” Professor King continues. “And it seems Tauro Demos has appeared as well. This should prove very useful to our cause.”

Back in the room, everyone is quiet, when it starts to rumble. Eugene's chair then floats up and his eyes glow with the fire.

“This is only the beginning,” a voice says. “Brother, do not interfere with this…”

“Brother…can he be speaking to me?” Tauro Demos wonders. “Des Demoné, is that you?”

* * *

At Eugene's house, Timmy is standing outside in the rain when Ashley and David come up to him.

“I know I'll find him and see him again,” he says to them. “Because Eugene is my friend, I won't give up on him.”

“It'll be ok sweat pea,” Ashley comforts him.

* * *

Later, at the harbor, Elliott, Jacoby and Tyrese are talking with the other four watching.

“Your kindness allowed the messiah to get away today,” Elliott says.

“But it also saved our lives,” Jacoby comments. “And for this we are thankful.”
