Ronin Warriors Fan Fiction / Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ Silent Warrior: The Phoenix' Flames ❯ The Chosen One of Virtue; Hawk and Tiger's Allegiance to the Prince ( Chapter 37 )

“Previously, on Silent Warrior: The Phoenix' Flames, Eugene King had a personal, inner struggle with an inner demon known as Des Demoné. After taking the Pure Heart Crystal of Timmy, Des Demoné was awakened. Unfortunately for him, Eugene refused to give up and fought him from within. With the help from his father, who had been a pawn in this evil game itself, he was able to over come the demon, and he emerged as his true self, Dragon's Eye, the last Brother Soldier, and Des Demoné was freed from the brainwash of the Order of the Revelation and revived as the leader of the Youkai Demon Knights, and Tauro Demos' oldest brother. Finally reborn like the others, he returned Timmy's Heart Crystal to him, and then went to destroy the evil Lord Z, master of the Tao Nebula. Silent Warrior wanted to help, but he couldn't because he gave up the Sacred Crest to save Eugene, and therefore, could not become Sacred Silent Warrior. Dragon's Eye left and went into the heart of Lord Z to destroy him with his power to destroy existence. Wanting to help him, Silent Warrior repeatedly called on the powers within him, until finally, his Crest of Hope grew bright, and he drew power from the other Brothers. With this power, he was able to use his Pure Heart Crystal to transform to Sacred Silent Warrior, where he then went after Dragon's Eye. After what seemed forever, Lord Z imploded, and Sacred Silent Warrior appeared, holding a baby in his arms. And now, for the conclusion of Silent Warrior: The Phoenix' Flames.”

Silent Warrior: The Phoenix' Flames

Episode 126

“Jacoby, Elliott, please undo your transformations! Will we never understand one another? Why can't we feel each others' resolve? Is it fate to bicker and stay enemies until the end? Hawk's Eye, Tiger's Eye, undo your transformations now!

The Chosen One of Virtue: Hawk and Tiger's Allegiance to the Prince

Hawk's Eye and Tiger's Eye both look up to see a trail of embers flickering in the sky, and floating down from the sky, sparking gently, covering everything. Lying on the ground, the four soldiers regain some strength, and see the fire embers. In the center of the embers stands Sacred Silent Warrior. His fiery wings glowing bright, his uniform tattered, his helmet gone. His hair is also fire like his wings, and his eyes are vacant with the fire. In his arms, he is holding a small, sleeping infant. On Sacred Silent Warrior's face is a blank expression of deep sorrow. The two run up to him as the others crawl to their feet. When they reach Sacred Silent Warrior, the two Other Brothers and the baby are gone.

Everyone is gathered at Ashley's place, where she and Timmy are still in the bedroom with the two god form guardians.

“Everyone…you're all here,” he says.

“Yes, we're glad to see you better,” Tyrone says.

“Where is Eugene?”

Everyone is silent and Timmy gets tears in his eyes.

“It's not true,” he shouts. “He came to me, as Dragon's Eye. He saved me from death, and then he thanked me.”

“I'm sure he's out there somewhere,” Ashley comforts.

“Silent Warrior risked his life to save Eugene,” Damon says.

“I'm sure he's safe out there somewhere,” Tyrone agrees.

“It's ok, I know TJ did the best he could.” Timmy says.

Later that morning, Timmy's friends are outside waiting for him so they can go to their last day of school before summer vacation. As he leaves out the door, Prometheus comes up to TJ.

“I know he's hiding his feelings,” he says to TJ. “Eugene's not the only one missing though. Dark Shark's Eye is too. The others are looking around the city for them.”

“I felt the warmth coming from him,” TJ says. “I felt so weak, but I held onto him with all my might. And for him to be taken by Brothers? I know he's alive, but where, I do not know.”

Timmy is on the bus to school, thinking about Eugene.

“I'll see you again, I'm sure,” he says to himself.

As the bus passes by Café Mileto, Timmy spots Jacoby's convertible.

“Hey, that's Jacoby's car,” he thinks as he passes by.

Inside, Elliott is giving a baby a bottle.

“You two look like father and son,” Jacoby says.

“Hey, there's nothing wrong with acting like it for now,” Elliott says. “You should try it. Perhaps the three of us should live peacefully as a family.”

“Come on Elliott, it's time.”

“Yeah, I suppose you're right. Time to say `bye-bye' baby.”

The two then leave the restaurant and drive off. As they are driving, Jacoby remembers his first encounter with Elliott, meeting Dark Tiger's Eye, and the talismans appearing.

“Remember when we first met?” Elliott asks.

“Of course,” Jacoby answers. “And we've been through so much since.”

They finally arrive at a hospital and go in with the baby.

“It appears as though the baby is in perfect health,” the nurse says.

They then walk into a room, and inside is Professor King. He has bandages around his forehead, and a cast on his left leg. His left arm is also wrapped up and in a sling.

“I know who this is,” he says, reaching for the baby.

He picks it up and it coos as he plays with it.

“Professor King has lost a lot of his memory,” a doctor says to Elliott and Jacoby outside the room. “Also, at night I've noticed him having nervous breakdowns and vivid nightmares. He's constantly yelling out at someone, but we think it's just a figment of his imagination.”

“Well now that the baby is with him, the dreams and breakdowns should stop,” Jacoby says.

“What makes you so sure?”

“Let's just say that babies have the power to make us feel better,” Elliott answers.

The professor wheels himself outside with baby Eugene. Jacoby and Elliott are watching from a window.

“The power of the dragon should help to heal Professor King,” Elliott says. “It's sad seeing him go.”

“Don't tell me you got attached that fast,” Jacoby jokes. “Come on, there's still one more thing we need to take care of.”

In the park next to the hospital, Timmy and his friends are riding bikes.

“Why you so down TK?” Mark asks.

“I'm not,” he replies. “I'm just thinking about some things.”

A strong wind suddenly blows, and causes Timmy's hat to fly off.

“You and Kayla go ahead, I'm going to get my hat,” he says, going after it.

He gets off his bike and chases it down a hill, complaining about it being his favorite hat, when a flash appears before him.

“What's going on?” he asks.

“Don't be scared, Prince Takato,” Shark's Eye says, appearing.

“It's you! Where have you been?”

“I don't have much time, so I will tell you all I can for now. First, I want to say how proud of you I am. I want to give you the biggest hug, but I no longer have a physical body in this world.”

“Don't say things like that…”

“In the battle, I used my power to stop time, which was forbidden, so for now I have to remain here in limbo. The curse that was on me, however, has been lifted, and I am now just Shark's Eye.”

“That's good to hear, but with you gone, and Eugene gone, I'm all alone…”

“Also, I have news about Eugene. He wasn't who he appeared to be. Like the rest of us, he was a valiant warrior of the Silver Millennium Revolution, known as Dragon's Eye. Unfortunately, when it was time for his power to be born on this planet, there was an accident, and to save his life, his father thought that it would be best to join with the dark forces. The dark forces corrupted the mind of his inner demon, Des Demoné, which kept him from finding his brother and human twin, Tauro Demos. With an evil Des Demoné then growing in him, Dragon's Eye decided not to reveal himself for hope he would not be discovered. Finally, in this battle, he emerged and destroyed Lord Z. Using all his power though would have left him dead, but Sacred Silent Warrior believed in him so much that he was given another chance at life.”

“But where is he?”

“You should see him soon, Little One. Now, I must go, but trust in your friends. Good bye, my Little One, I will see you again, someday…”

Shark's Eye's image then disappears and Timmy is left in the middle of the park.

“Excuse me sir,” a voice says.

He turns around to see Professor King with a baby.

“Is this your hat?” he asks holding up a hat.

“Why thank you,” Timmy answers. “Is this your son?”

“Yes it is. His name is Eugene.”

“So this is what he meant by `given a new chance at life.' How interesting!”

“He seems to like you.”

“Oh, well, I have to go now. Take care of him. I'm sure we'll meet again.”

At New Haven Academy, the site is nothing more than ruins.

“There's nothing here,” Damon says.

“I can't find anything either,” Tyrone yells.

“The portal to the negative space must be closed,” Tyrese concludes. “I was sure we'd be able to find traces of Eugene around here somewhere.”

“Will you cut that out?” Styve yells at TJ. “You can't sulk for the rest of your life. At least we know he's alive. How the hell do you think I feel knowing that not only do I have a brother out there, but that we're twins. And let's not forget that Tauro Demos has been searching for Des Demoné ever since we were reborn.”

“Yeah, but where is he? And where are the others for that matter?” TJ asks frustrated.

“Athena, look,” Prometheus says from atop some rubble.

“That's Jacoby's car!” she exclaims.

A melody of music starts to play, and TJ recognizes it as Elliott's playing. He runs toward the sound of the music, when a dagger being thrown in front of him stops him.

“We want you to know we don't think you're a hero,” Elliott says. “Your idealism is too painful to watch.”

“I agree with you,” TJ says.

“Yes, the world was saved, but we can't forgive what you did to save it. Your idealism in protecting the Warrior of Ruin and Destruction almost destroyed this planet. Because of this we cannot forgive you.”

“We have a little story for you,” Jacoby says. “Once upon a time, there were eight soldiers. Each possessed mystical armors, and special powers. They were known as the Brother Soldiers. They protected the Silver Moon Kingdom. One day, an evil came with a strong power. The objective was to take over the moon and from there the universe. The Brother's fought, but they were not strong enough. The first casualty was Dragon's Eye, the Brother of Destruction. He used his power of destruction and destroyed half of the evil that had attacked. His death was a symbol to us, and a sign that we were not invincible like we thought we were. The fight ensued for what seemed forever, until the enemy found a way to take us out. Through the use of a powerful magic, a curse was placed on all the Brothers by the queen because she blamed us for the death of her children. This curse caused the armors to be lost. Then, if that wasn't enough, the curse caused us to not only be separated from the spirits which gave us our power, but it caused our power to derive from a darkness within us, hence the word dark in front of our names, not because we're dark skinned heroes. Finally, the Chosen One arose and destroyed the evil, but in doing so, used up all his power. When the fight was over, Phoenix sent us all here, to earth, where we were to be reborn. When you were reborn, your curse had been lifted because of what you did to save the kingdom. Ours had not though, until now that is. Shark's Eye sacrificed himself to get us into the building two days ago, and doing so lifted the curse on the Other Brothers. Now the curse remains to be lifted from the Original Brothers.”

“Lift the curse, how do I do that?” TJ asks. “And I'm not that dark…”

“Only the Chosen One can do that,” Elliott says. “And that is not you. Not only do you not qualify to be chosen, but we refuse to let you take the throne as the king of Neo Avalon.”

“Hey, you watch it,” Damon says. “He is our true prince; can't you get that through your thick skulls?”

“They're just jealous because they didn't get to save the day,” Tyrone yells.

“You think you're so high and mighty, but you're nothing but a bunch of yesterday's heroes,” Styve says.

“Hawk Dagger Power!”

“Tiger Dagger Power!”

“So it's a challenge huh? Well we're up for it. Dark Dagger Power!”

“Dark Lightning-Dagger Power!”

“Dark Fire-Dagger Power!”

“Dark Ice-Dagger Power!”

“Hawk's Eye, Tiger's Eye, I have nothing against you, but I can't let you speak ill of TJ,” Dark Warrior says.

“Silent Warrior fought to the best of his abilities,” Dark Sabre comments.

“Guys please, don't fight,” TJ says. “What one person says is another's treasure, and right now I take what they're saying seriously.”

“You really are a pathetic idealist,” Hawk's Eye scoffs.

“TJ, are you serious?” Dark Blade asks.

“How can you let them get away with everything they've said?” Dark Knight wonders.

“I'm not upset because it's true,” TJ replies. “But I don't believe saving Eugene was wrong. He may be the soldier of destruction, but he is still one of us: a Brother Soldier! I was happy that we could feel each others' resolve. Jacoby, Elliott, please undo your transformations! Everyone else too!”

“If you want us to stop, do it yourself, your highness,” Tiger's Eye says. “Or else we will be enemies forever.”

“Fine then. You guys, don't help me; this is my responsibility. Armor of the Phoenix, Transform!”

“Finally, the savior appears,” Hawk's Eye says.

“Shall I do the honors? Tiger's Paw Slash!”

The attack hits Silent Warrior directly. The Brothers go to help when the card appears.

“Sometimes we have to resolve conflict with more than just words,” Yellow LightStar says. “For two hearts to understand each other, sometimes harsh collisions are necessary. If forced to we must fight, for what we believe in.”

“What's wrong, aren't you going to cry?” Hawk's Eye asks.

“Prince Crybaby,” Tiger's Eye adds in.

“Undo those transformations, now!” Silent Warrior replies.

“Hawk's Sheer Feathers!”

Silent Warrior jumps out of the way and lands behind Hawk's Eye.

“I'm not giving up my title so easily,” he says.

The two start to fist fight, when Silent Warrior jumps out of the way again.

“Why don't you hold still?” Tiger's Eye says, coming up behind him and grabbing him. “Now Hawk, do it!”

Hawk's Eye begins to run at him and jumps in the air to do a flying kick.

“This is not how it's going to end,” Silent Warrior thinks. “I am the Chosen One. I am the future king of Neo Avalon. I am YOUR king. I will not tolerate this anymore; VIRTUE CRISIS POWER!”

With his last thought outburst, Silent Warrior then powers up and teleports out of the way. Hawk's Eye flies into Tiger's Eye, and then Silent Warrior reappears before them as Lord Katsuhito. He is dressed in samurai style black armor that has a red star on the front and black angelic wings on his back. He has a headband that reaches down to his ankles on, that has the sign of Virtue shimmering in gold n the front, and kanjis of the others on the tips. On both shoulders is the Crest of Hope (a crest that looks like a sun sitting on top of a trapezoid).

“I am the one who stops evil,” he says. “Are you worthy to work for me?”

He then holds his Phoenix Star above his head, and is transformed into Angel Katsuhito. He is in a black button down shirt with a white shirt underneath. He is wearing black pants and black boots. He still has the black wings which are silver tipped, and are coming out of a long black overcoat.

“We were awaiting you, your highness,” Hawk's Eye and Tiger's Eye say, bowing to him.

“We were waiting for your true power to be awakened,” Tiger's Eye continues.

“We knew from the minute you touched the Sacred Crest that you were the Chosen One,” Hawk's Eye says. “Everything we need to do in this city is now over.”

“We've found the real soverign, and the earth is saved. You have shown us that we can leave everything up to you.”

“I will find a way to break their curse,” Angel Katsuhito says. “And then we shall all be free once again. One question though: who was the real soverign?”

“There he goes again,” Hawk's Eye says to Tiger's Eye.

“He even brought the Soldier of Ruin and Destruction over to his side,” Tiger's Eye smiles.

“Wait, Hawk's Eye, Tiger's Eye,” Dark Blade calls out as the two start to walk off.

“Since we came to this town, it's been a series of battles,” Hawk's Eye says to Tiger's Eye. “It was a rather tough everyday life, wasn't it Tiger?”

“But, it was worth it,” he replies.

“Yeah, it wasn't just Des Demoné/Dragon's Eye that was saved by the soverign, we were as well. I guess I should say `thank you.'”

“Hold on…is Eugene alive?” Angel Katsuhito asks.

“I'm sure you'll see him again.”

“So he is alive,” Dark Blade sighs.

* * *

After the battle is over, Jacoby and Elliott are driving over a long bridge into the sunset.

“What an adventure this city brought to us,” Elliott says.

“Yeah, we met the prince, found the chosen one, and got our curses lifted,” Jacoby says.

“When do you think we'll see our Amazon spirits again?”

“I don't know, but I'm sure he will find a way. After all, he is the Chosen One, King of Neo Avalon, and the planet of Virtue. Lord Katsuhito…we have left the city in good hands.”

“Good bye, Brother Warriors; we shall meet again.”
