Sailor Moon Fan Fiction / Ronin Warriors Fan Fiction ❯ Silent Warrior Inferno: SuperB ❯ Showdown between the Brother Warriors and King Gareeth ( Chapter 38 )

“Open your eyes!” Xero Warrior 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!”

King Gareeth then breaks through the mirror.

"The world is mine," King Gareeth says, laughing hysterically.

Silent Warrior Inferno: SuperB

Episode 165: Part Five of the End

Dozens of Cruxius Circus tents are flying around, falling apart. Xero Warrior is in the arms of Silent Warrior, still unconscious.

“He has fallen under my curse,” King Gareeth's says. “That boy will never awaken again.”

“Why don't you show yourself?” Silver Warrior yells.

A giant boulder then appears, about to crush the father and son.

"Halo; Thunder Bolt Cut!”

JetStorm's attack breaks the boulder before it crushes Silent and Xero Warrior. They then hear laughing, and see King Gareeth sitting on a throne above them.

“You!” starts QuickStrike. “Tauro Demos feels restless at the sight of you.”

"Simple child, the demon fears my power,” King Gareeth laughs.

“Who are you?” NightScream asks.

“It is the king of the moon from my world,” Silver Warrior answers.

“What did you just say?!” Angel Warrior gasps.

"That is right, Silver Warrior,” King Gareeth laughs. “I am the one from the past that you Brothers failed to keep safe, on that dreadful day. But now, I am the one who will rule all the worlds!"

Showdown between the Brother Warriors and King Gareeth

“What happened wasn't our fault, it was yours!” Silver Warrior says. “You left the gate open when you came to this world, allowing Yggdrasil to enter this world and attack the moon. It was your intention the entire time!”

“You're the one who provoked the queen into cursing us!” JetStorm yells.

“Why are you doing all of this?” Silent Warrior asks.

“You couldn't understand the pain I've endured from being sealed away for so long,” King Gareeth answers. “I will give even more pain to everyone in this world. I will envelope this entire world in shadows!”

“I won't let you do that!”

At Ashley's, Prometheus, Athena, and Mid-Knight are still with Ashley who's still in bed.

“There's a lot of those circus tents outside,” Prometheus notes.

“TJ…Timmy…Zakia…” Ashley mumbles in her sleep.

* * *

"Heavens; Holy Indignation!”

“Holy Judgment!”

Silver Warrior and Angel Warrior both attack King Gareeth, but nothing happens.

"Torrent."

"Strata."

"Super Wave Smasher!"

"Arrow Shock Wave!"

NightScream and QuickStrike both combine their attack, but it has no effect either.

"You don't get it, do you?” King Gareeth smiles. “Now that the seal has been broken, I am the strongest, as well as the most handsome one, in all the universe! You from the New Moon: bow before me!”

“Not even over our dead bodies!” JetStorm yells back.

King Gareeth grips the Golden Crystal tightly, and proceeds to unleash massive wave attacks, tossing the Brothers around.

“Wow, what power!” K'var exclaims, hiding behind a rock with the other girls. “Looks like King Gareeth's gotten a hold of the crystal.”

“At this rate, all of them are going to fail,” Forcystus comments.

“I think we'll have a chance if we can get that crystal away from him,” Magnius says.

“Do you think our magic will still work, even though we don't have the power balls?” Rodyle wonders.

“Come to think of it, King Gareeth said the power of the Chaos Moon was our energy in the first place,” K'var says.

"I have an idea," Rodyle says, handing a pineapple to K'var.

“I think it's worth a shot to see if we can get something from nothing,” Forcystus cheers.

The Brothers are all lying on the ground, beaten from King Gareeth's attacks. Silent Warrior sits up, and looks at the sleeping Xero Warrior in his arms. Looking at him, Silent Warrior thinks about how happy Timmy has been being with him, Ashley, and the others.

“I can't lose here,” Silent Warrior thinks to himself. "I'm not going to quit," Silent Warrior shouts to King Gareeth, laying Xero Warrior down and standing up. "I'm going to defeat you."

The Brothers then all stand up and join hands around Silver Warrior. He unsheathes his sword and points it directly at King Gareeth.

“Brother Mystic Attack!”

Silver Warrior floats above the others as his silver wings appear. Directly below him, Angel Warrior is holding up her staff. The other four Brothers focus their power on her staff, and then a beam shoots up to Silver Warrior. He then channels the power through his sword, sending it towards King Gareeth. The powers combine and send a blinding flash of power at King Gareeth.

"Was that supposed to hurt?” King Gareeth asks, being unaffected.

“What in the hell is he?” JetStorm wonders.

“Even my holy powers are having a tough time here,” Angel Warrior comments.

“What should we do?” Silent Warrior wonders, falling to his knees.

Back in Ashley's room, she is still lying in bed. The cats are watching her, when they suddenly hear a soft female voice.

“Princess…Lady Yunalesca…” the voice calls out..

“This voice sounds familiar…” Mid-Knight says.

Ashley then opens her eyes to find herself floating in a bright space, surrounded by tiny bright lights. Ashley finally reaches the ground, only to find herself dressed as Lady Yuna in a white gown with gold trim. She looks around and notices she is in a quiet place with lots of old ruins, much looking like some sort of ancient kingdom.

“I feel as though I have been to this place before,” she says to herself. “This gentle and warm feeling…”

“You should recognize it,” the voice says. “This is a place where you once came, many times in a previous life. This is the capital of the kingdom of Avalon, M'kran.”

A strong wind then blows by, causing Lady Yuna to cover her face. When it dies down, she looks up, only to see everything is now covered with black roses. The roses continue to spread over everything, until nothing is left, and everything is black. A single light then shines not too far ahead of her. She looks at it and sees the Phoenix on one knee, praying.

“You are…” Lady Yuna starts.

“Yes, I am the one who was left to guard this place and its holy crystal,” Phoenix replies.

"Your voice…you're the one that saved Silent Warrior all this time, aren't you? The one that gave him the Phoenix armor, and informed him of the talismans which would make the Sacred Crest of Hope, and now helped to unlock his kanji Virtue, and mystical armor. You are also, his mother.”

“That is only partially true. I am but a reincarnation of the Phoenix that gave birth to the Chosen One. She sacrificed herself during the Silver Millennium Revolution to give everyone new life. Though I share the same memories, feelings, and appearance of that Phoenix, I am not exactly that one. But right now, I have to apologize to you, Lady Yuna. Because I was unable to protect this place, an evil has washed over the Earth, causing you pain.”

“This world, M'kran, it's supported by the souls and dreams of those on earth, isn't it?”

"My mission was to protect peoples' souls. Because of the Chaos Moon king, the peoples' power to dream will completely disappear, causing their souls to become twisted.”

“Do you really think so?” Lady Yuna asks, turning away. “Can they really do something like that?”

She then goes to a bush, and finds a single red rose amongst the sea of black ones.

“The power of people who have pure souls with beautiful dreams will surely blossom a flower of hope for everyone else,” she says, showing Phoenix the rose. “Something that cannot be thrown away, even if you really wanted to throw it away; isn't that what a dream is?”

Phoenix thinks about this, and then thinks about Timmy.

“Phoenix, why did you go so far to protect peoples' souls?” Lady Yuna asks.

“Because it was my destiny to,” she replies.

“Is that really the only reason?”

“No…it's because I like them. Beautiful souls leave a lasting mark on someone, and it's my dream to see their soul shine brightly.”

“Is that dream gone already?”

“Never…”

* * *

Back in the battle, King Gareeth is still tossing the Brothers around like rag dolls.

“You of the New Moon, I will now put an end to you!” King Gareeth laughs.

A glimmer of light interrupts his evil laughter, and from it, Phoenix emerges.

“This is all the power of dreaming souls that I have right now,” she says, picking up Xero Warrior.

She then proceeds to kiss him on the cheek, causing the Brothers to all turn a little red.

“Damn you, Phoenix!” King Gareeth roars. “How far will you go to insult me?!”

He sends a wave of power at them, and Phoenix uses her body to shield Xero Warrior, causing her to slam against a wall. Silent Warrior quickly goes to Xero Warrior, and notices his eyelids moving.

“Silent Warrior,” he says, awakening. “Phoenix!”

"Impudent brat; to rid yourself of my curse!” King Gareeth yells. “It doesn't matter if you're awake, I still have the Golden Crystal!"

He then holds up the Golden Crystal, and QuickStrike begins to laugh.

“That's the Golden M'kran Crystal?” NightScream asks, confused.

King Gareeth looks in his hand, to see he's holding a pineapple.

“Serves you right!” the Four Cardinals shout from the side.

“You little bitches!” King Gareeth roars.

"Silent Warrior, catch," Magnius shouts, throwing him the real Golden Crystal. “Use that power to defeat King Gareeth.”

"Now Silent Warrior, use it," JetStorm says.

Silent Warrior gets up, and holds the crystal in his hands, high above his head.

“Please, Golden M'kran Crystal, lend me your powers!”

The crystal begins to glow, and King Gareeth stares at it. After a moment of glowing, the light fades and nothing happens. King Gareeth laughs and comes down to the ground with them.

"You fools, do you know why it doesn't shine for you?” he asks. “That crystal can shine using my powers of the darkness, as well as the beautiful souls of you humans on this side. To put it simply, it is a power amplifying device. But now, there is no power in humans of this world to have beautiful souls!”

"The power of the souls still exists," Phoenix says to Xero Warrior telepathically.

King Gareeth then binds Phoenix with spider webs.

"I've got an idea," Xero Warrior says, coming up to Silent Warrior and the Golden Crystal.

"Everybody, can you hear me?” Xero Warrior asks taking out his swords, pointing them at the crystal, and addressing the people of earth. "Everybody on Earth with beautiful souls, please lend me your power. Right now, an evil king has invaded our world to ruin it and cast it into darkness. If we let him do what he wants, this world where we realize our dreams will be destroyed. He's trying to infringe on everything, such as the important dreams of our loved ones. Please, please pray with me; please fight with me; please shout out with me: Golden Crystal Power!"

At first, no one can believe what they are hearing. Then slowly, people start to say the phrase. Timmy's friends recognize his voice, and try to convince everyone to say it too. Paul, Lizzie, and Miranda recognize his voice too, and get their customers to say it. Everyone in the floating city then begins to shout out “Golden Crystal Power,” and the sun begins to become un-eclipsed.

“Swords of Twilight, know thy plight and release the light! Let the souls of everyone activate this crystal!”

Xero Warrior's swords begin to glow in sync with the Golden Crystal, which becomes extremely bright.

"I can't believe it's reacting," King Gareeth says, referring to the crystal.

The Phoenix entity is then released from the webs King Gareeth put her in.

“This is the glimmer of beautiful souls and dreams that we and StarFire have been protecting!” Silent Warrior shouts.

“The Golden M'kran Crystal answers to beautiful souls, and shows it's true strength!” Phoenix adds.

“Let's show the power of everyone's soul: the power of beautiful dreams!” Xero Warrior says.

"Golden...Crystal...Power!” Xero Warrior and Silent Warrior call out, one final time as bright golden light pierces through the circus tent.
