Sailor Moon Fan Fiction / Ronin Warriors Fan Fiction ❯ Silent Warrior Inferno: SuperB ❯ The Golden M'kran Crystal Appears ( Chapter 37 )
[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
"It is coming,” King Gareeth says as he watches Xero Warrior struggle to get free of the spider web. “Soon this world will be covered by darkness, and only the Chaos Moon will shine.”
Meanwhile, Ashley is in more pain, and the sun is almost fully covered.
"A black moon covering the sun; I think I remember an old story about this," Prometheus starts to say to Athena. "The black moon, known as Chaos Moon, was ruled by King Gareeth. When Lord Mithos Yggdrasil attacked with the power of Cruxius, he happened to be on the moon that day. When the queen ordered the Phoenix to destroy everything and begin things anew, he wished to be kept eternal."
"I heard that story too," Athena says. "The Phoenix sealed him in a mirror, causing him to have eternal youth and be forever safe."
In a flash back, the Cardinals are in the Amazon Jungle of M'kran. Sam is running with the other girls, when she falls down.
“Don't cry,” Shannon says, lending her a hand.
“We're all here waiting for you,” Kim smiles.
The others help her up, when they see something in a lake nearby.
“What is that?” Kim asks.
It's a mirror in the sand. They take it out, and it starts to glow. King Gareeth appears in the mirror, and starts to talk to them.
“Hello young ladies,” he says to them.
Silent Warrior Inferno: SuperB
Episode 164: Part Four of the End
In the present time, Forcystus is playing with a flower to find out if they'll get out soon.
"Your fortune telling is always wrong," Magnius complains.
"We'll get out soon," Forcystus says.
"I don't believe it," states K'var.
"King Gareeth will get us out soon," Rodyle insists.
"I wonder if he's mad at us for trying to ride StarFire.”
"He's not grumpy like Pronyma," Magnius points out. "He'll let us out.
The Golden M'kran Crystal Appears
Back in the flashback, the girls are staring at the mirror.
“It spoke to us!” Kim exclaims.
“Maybe it's a magic mirror,” Sam says.
"I can use magic," King Gareeth starts. "As a sign of my gratitude for waking me up, I want to give you some magic wands."
"I'm sorry, I want to get out now," Rodyle cries, now back in the present time.
"I'm going to get StarFire out now," King Gareeth says to Pronyma in a mirror. "I want you to get rid of those form the New Moon for good this time! Simple spells and tricks won't work on them. Their existence in itself is a catastrophe!”
Pronyma leaves and King Gareeth gets an evil expression on his face.
“The time for light to disappear into shadows is at hand!” he laughs. “Come on out, StarFire.”
A strong bolt of dark energy strikes through Xero Warrior, forcing his Soul Mirror out.
"Heart of the Phoenix: if you don't obey me, I'll kill the boy," King Gareeth says to Xero Warrior's Soul Mirror. “Go back into your human form.”
“Don't do it,” Xero Warrior says with barely any strength.
StarFire appears, and King Gareeth frees Phoenix' lifeless body, and returns Xero Warrior's Soul Mirror. Seeing this be done, StarFire reluctantly walks over to her human body, and turns into a golden ball, assimilating itself with the body.

"I've found Xero Warrior," NightScream informs. "He's just up ahead."
"I've been waiting for you," Pronyma says, appearing. "Will you be able to defeat me if StarFire doesn't come to your rescue?" she asks, multiplying. “You from the New Moon; the grudge we've held for so long will be avenged here!”
“Be careful everyone, this is an illusion of some kind,” NightScream says, analyzing the copies.

“The time finally comes to exchange words,” King Gareeth smiles, staring at her naked body. “You understand that you're already mine, don't you?”
"I thought I told you before: I will never belong to you!” Phoenix says, using her power to create her black outfit.
“Don't be embarrassed; I liked what I saw! Are you dissatisfied with being the servant of someone as handsome as I?”
Phoenix stares at him with a look of disgust as fire begins to light in her eyes.
“Don't look at me with those eyes!” King Gareeth yells, backing away.
Phoenix stands up, and continues to look at him, causing King Gareeth to start to look old. Behind her, Xero Warrior starts to awaken, and calls her name.
“I told you to stop!” King Gareeth yells, pushing energy at her.
The blast is unexpected, and sends her flying back, and changes his appearance back to normal. Xero Warrior sits up just in time to catch her in his lap. Phoenix looks up at him, and Xero Warrior throws his arms around her.
“I won't forgive either of you,” King Gareeth growls. “I'll show you what happens when you defy my presence!”
King Gareeth snaps his finger, and a spider web net covers them. It then tears them from each other, entangling them in their own separate web.
"Takato!" Phoenix cries out, grabbing his hand.
"That's the first time you've called me by my name, without using formalities," Xero Warrior smiles.
Phoenix loses her grip, and they are torn apart.

"King Gareeth must be really upset with us,” Forcystus is saying.
"Don't cry,” Magnius says to Rodyle. “Let's see what's going on. See-through Ball!”
Magnius' red ball lights up, and reveals the Pronyma copies surrounding the Brother Warriors.
“I think you picked up the wrong channel,” Forcystus says.
“It looks exciting though,” K'var comments.

"Halo; Thunder Bolt Cut!”
JetStorm, Silver Warrior, and QuickStrike unleash their attacks and destroy the Pronyma copies.
“There is no end!” Pronyma laughs, creating more copies. “I will kill you all slowly!”
“Angel Feathers!”
Angel Warrior's attack takes out the second wave of Pronyma clones, but she creates a third batch.
"There must be a real one," NightScream says, analyzing the room.
NightScream starts analyzing each one untill he notices a difference. One of the copies has Remiel on its shoulder.
"Ha, found her! Torrent; Super Wave Smasher!"
"They're doing really well against Pronyma," Magnius comments.
“Serves that old bitch right,” K'var scoffs.
Suddenly, the mirror they are standing on lights up, and they fall through.
“Looks like it's over for you!” QuickStrike says to Pronyma. “I'll kill you again, like I did before!”
"King Gareeth, please help me!” Pronyma screeches, looking at the ceiling.
“King Gareeth?” Silent Warrior wonders.
The girls then drop in from the ceiling.
"Guess we're supposed to take over now," Magnius says.
“I'm going to do my best!” Rodyle proclaims.
“Leave the rest to us, old hag,” K'var says to Pronyma.
“You girls aren't any smarter than you were before when you were men,” Pronyma smirks.
The Cardinals are then trapped in a giant spider web.
“Are they fighting against each other?” QuickStrike wonders as the girls are electrocuted.
“It feels like our power is being drained,” K'var cries out.
A spider web appears behind Pronyma, and their energy begins to drain into her.
"Thank you, King Gareeth, for the wonderful new energy," Pronyma says.
"Make sure you finish those pesky Brothers off this time," King Gareeth's voice bellows.
“What's the meaning of this?” Forcystus asks.
“Did you really believe that I wanted to be friends with you girls? Your power of Cruxius was the perfect energy to support the magical power of the Chaos Moon. But now, I have no more need for it.”
“Damn it, you were fooling us the whole time!” Magnius yells.
“This isn't right,” Silver Warrior comments.
"Let them go," Silent Warrior says, throwing his dagger at the Cardinals, attempting to free them.
“What are you doing?” Magnius asks him.
“I'll save you,” Silent Warrior smiles.
“Is this really the time for you to worry about others?” Pronyma laughs.
Pronyma starts to throw energy blasts, at the Brothers.
"Her power seems to be coming from the Four Cardinals' Power Balls," NightScream says. "We have to destroy them."
"You can't do that," Magnius cries out. "The Amazon Stones are the crystals of our souls. If you break them, we'll grow up, and not be able to use magic."
"That's not true," Angel Warrior says. "Truly beautiful souls cannot be destroyed. They'll flourish as you grow up."
"Adults have twisted souls that have lost the sight of their dream!" Pronyma says, blasting Angel Warrior. “You all have nowhere to run!”
“We wouldn't run from something like this,” JetStorm says.
“There is no reason for us to escape to a soulless world,” Silver Warrior adds.
“We won't be going anywhere!” Silent Warrior says, helping Angel Warrior up.
"We should destroy the stones," Forcystus says, plucking her flowers.
"Your fortune telling is always wrong," the girls say, destroying their colorful pool balls.
"We are free now," Magnius says. "We won't follow you anymore, Pronyma.”
“Things won't be going the way you want them to anymore, old hag!” K'var yells.
"We'll see about that," Pronyma says, leaving.
"Brother Warriors," starts Rodyle, "you can catch her at the end of this path. That's where she stays."
* * *
“Oh holy crystal!” King Gareeth laughs. “The time has come for you to come to my hands.”
King Gareeth then places his hand on Phoenix' gold emblem on her chest, and it begins to shine brightly. She then begins screaming out in pain.
“Stop it!” Xero Warrior screams out as a blinding light comes from Phoenix.
In her bed, Ashley lets out a howl.
“Something is wrong,” Silent Warrior says to the others.
"I finally have the Golden M'kran Crystal," King Gareeth screams out, holding up the uncut diamond shaped stone.
Phoenix then begins to sparkle and fade, and Xero Warrior starts to cry.
“Open your eyes!” he cries out.
"You of the New Moon,” King Gareeth starts. “This is nothing compared to the humiliation I've endured from all of you! You will receive my curse, and go to sleep forever.”
Pronyma arrives at King Gareeth's mirror, and is about to apologize for failing, when she notices something sparkling in his hand.
“Is that what I think it is?” Pronyma asks, looking at him through the mirror.
"What makes you happy, Pronyma?” King Gareeth asks.
"Of course, it is to see with my own eyes your true form, which is currently only seen in mirrors," Pronyma answers, sucking up.
“So then you remember what my greatest sadness is, correct?”
Pronyma doesn't answer.
"I no longer want to see you as an image in the mirror," King Gareeth says.
“I don't understand,” Pronyma stutters.
“And now, I don't have to see it anymore!”
King Gareeth then breaks through the mirror, killing Pronyma in the process. The mirror then completely breaks.
"The world is mine," King Gareeth says, laughing hysterically.
The sun is now completely covered. Silent Warrior and the Brothers arrive, only to find Xero Warrior asleep in front of the broken mirror. The circus tents outside start to shake, and black lightning strikes. Suddenly small tents start to float down from the sky. Silent Warrior holds Xero Warrior in his arms, as King Gareeth laughs.
