Silent Warrior: Revolution
Episode 86
The crystal that Princess Diamond Weapon placed the other day has grown at an alarming rate. On the news, the anchor is explaining that people should evacuate that area until more information can be provided. At TJ's house, the guys and Athena, back in tiger form, are watching the news, wondering what they should do.
“This has turned into a terrible situation,” Athena says.
“How are we going to be able to stop that thing?” Damon wonders.
“We should wait for Ashley and Prometheus to come back from their investigation,” Tyrese responds.
“We don't really have a choice, if we want to be prepared,” Tyrone comments.
Krystalyn then walks in with snacks and drinks for the guys.
“Why did you bring out six drinks?” TJ asks.
“Oh, it's the strangest thing” she replies. “For some reason I thought I needed an extra setting.”
She leaves, shaking her head, and TJ becomes very quiet.
“I thought that since Lion-O is gone, all memories of Timmy would be erased,” Athena says. “I guess some of them still temporarily exist.”
“I don't understand Athena, how is it Timmy has the same aura as Soul Edge?” Tyrone asks.
“Well, the Black Phoenix: Soul Edge and Prince Takato became one being back in the past,” she begins to explain. “Soul Edge is a demonic living weapon. Before Prince Takato made a pact with Soul Edge, he was a tool of chaos for the demonic god known as Lord Z. Once Takato conquered Soul Edge, using the power of his Crest of Hope, he agreed to become one with him, giving him his power.”
“The Crest of Hope?” Damon asks.
“Yes. Like the symbol of Virtue on TJ's forehead, he also was born with a symbol on his chest, the Crest of Hope. Even though it hasn't appeared yet, I'm assuming it will when it's needed. The last time TJ became Soul Edge, he died, so that could have a lot to do with it. But in Timmy's case, I guess that since Timmy is TJ's son, he inherited the power of the Black Phoenix. Xero must be a reincarnation of the original Soul Edge, which makes perfect sense, since Timmy is the offspring of TJ. The Jakozuishou seems to be using Timmy's misplaced anger to tap into Xero's natural demon qualities.”
“You know, I always wanted him out of here, but now that's he's gone, I miss him,” TJ complains. “This house just seems empty now.”
“Things will be alright,” Styve comforts. “We'll combine our power and bring him back, I promise.”
Wiseone's Secret: Sapphire Weapon's Follies
Wiseone is at his Dark Citadel, studying the Black Crystal.
“O nothingness, o silence, obey me. Swear your allegiance to the all knowing, all mighty Angel of Darkness. Know that the one who will rule this universe is not Diamond, who dreams an ephemeral dream, but will be my master, the Angel of Darkness, who possesses absolute power! Darkness and emptiness shall replace life!”
From the corners, Sapphire Weapon is spying on Wiseone.
“So my suspicions were right,” he thinks.
He leaves the room and goes down a long corridor to a big door. He opens it to reveal the Black Crystal.
“The crystal has grown to an amazing proportion,” he states. “I've got to warn my sister about Wiseone's true plan.”
Sapphire Weapon then holds his hand out, and a little console appears. He opens the console, and removes a clear card from it. As soon as it is taken out, the crystal stops glowing.
“The reactor must not be allowed to run further out of control,” he says.
“What are you doing?” Wiseone asks, coming into the room. “Put that control card back right now. Anyone who is against the Angel of Darkness will be dealt with.”
“Who is this angel?” Sapphire Weapon asks. “You have no right to order me around!”
“He is Lucas, the supreme one who will bring forth the end for all!”
“That is ridiculous. Once I inform my sister, she'll decide what to do with you.”
“She'll do nothing of the sort!”
He blasts Sapphire Weapon with his power, but he puts up a shield just in time.
“I've got to stop him, but now is not the time,” Sapphire Weapon thinks to himself.
He teleports out and Wiseone is surprised at the power he holds.
“I know exactly where he'll be headed…”
* * *
Princess Diamond Weapon and Xero are on Diamond Weapon's Death Star, watching the crystal structure grow within the city.
“The energy is growing quite nicely,” Princess Diamond Weapon comments.
“Once the crystal has grown to size, the Dark Gate will open, and everything will end,” Xero states.
“Once that happens, this world will disappear and the future will change greatly.”
In the city, people are evacuating the area of the crystal. In the crowd, Aries, Virgo, Libra, and Sagittarius are watching with disbelief.
“Do you think they're back to get us?” Aries asks.
“Who knows, but this can't be good,” Virgo responds.
The sisters begin to leave, when Sagittarius spots a familiar person staggering in the shadows.
“Is that Sapphire Weapon?” Virgo asks.
Sapphire Weapon manages to make it to a park, where he collapses against a tree.
“The smell of the sweet grass brings back memories,” he says, passing out.
In a dream, he remembers growing up with Princess Diamond Weapon. In the dream, he has found a flower.
“Look sis, a flower,” he says.
“It's very rare for any flowers to grow on this planet,” she says to him. “Someday, we'll invade Virtue, and flower fields as far as the eye can see will be ours!”
“One day, when you are queen, I know you'll make all our dreams come true!
Suddenly, a voice is heard behind him, and he turns to see Wiseone with Diamond Weapon.
“Sister no, please don't go! he cries out.
He jolts awake to find himself wrapped in bandages.
“Where am I?” he asks.
Sagittarius then walks into the room, carrying a tray.
“Is that you, Sagittarius?” he asks.
“I know that we betrayed you and the others, and I'm willing to accept the punishment. But please, spare my sisters,” she replies.
“I'm not here to punish anyone…”
In the hallway, the others are listening in on their conversation.
“I'm surprised she's being so nice,” Aries says. “I always thought she hated men.”
“We should try to escape before Sapphire Weapon delivers our punishment,” Virgo suggests.
“Everything will be ok,” Libra starts. “Sagittarius and Sapphire Weapon have history…”

“What do you mean my brother betrayed me?” Princess Diamond Weapon asks Wiseone.
“It is true,” he responds. “He took the crystal control chip, and fled off. We must destroy him and get it back.”
“I'll take care of the matter,” Shadow Warrior says, exiting.
Wiseone follows him out, and Diamond Weapon is left thinking about her brother.
* * *
“You've changed,” Sapphire Weapon says to Sagittarius. “It's as though you are at complete peace with yourself.”
“We all learned about love and trust from Silent Warrior,” she says. “It's difficult being with humans in this world, but it's calming. It's a wonderful thing to be able to love and trust someone. Compared to when we lived on Chaos Inferno, there are some really inconvenient things about this world, but it is filled with something that makes us feel as though we have been saved.”
Sapphire Weapon begins to think about Wiseone, and leans over in pain. He then starts to think about the attack on Neo Avalon, and wonders if what they're doing is the right thing.
“We've been following Wiseone blindly, he thinks to himself
Sapphire Weapon looks at Sagittarius, and then gets out of the bed.
“I must go,” he says. “I need to talk to Diamond and tell her about Wiseone's true intentions.”
“Your injuries are grave Sapphire, you shouldn't leave,” she says.
She then starts to cry and he goes up to her.
“If something were to happen to you…”
“I understand what you're saying Sagittarius, but think about your sisters. If something were to happen to them, you know you wouldn't care what happens to you as long as they're safe. I need to protect my older sister; it's what we brothers do. You see my jacket on the wall over there? I'll leave it here so you know I'll come back for it.”
Sapphire Weapon leaves, and Sagittarius stares at his jacket hanging on the wall. In the hall, the others are discussing Sapphire Weapon still.
“She shouldn't have let him go,” Aries complains. “His injuries will handicap him.”
“Even with our powers, we wouldn't be much help,” Libra comments. “There's nothing we can do.”
Aries looks at the phone and wonders…
* * *
On the streets, Sapphire Weapon is headed towards the crystal structure. When he finally reaches it, Shadow Warrior shows up.
“How nice of you to save me the trouble of having to look for you,” he laughs.
“Out of my way, I need to see my sister,” Sapphire Weapon yells.
“Sorry, but all appointments with the princess are cancelled for the day.”
Xero then draws the Lyger Xero, and gets ready for an attack.
“Just one second,” a voice calls out as five daggers appear. “As Silent Warrior, I'm asking you not to hurt him. Timmy, you're being tricked and manipulated.”
“You're mistaken Silent Warrior, I'm acting out of my own free will!”
Xero then holds up the sword and changes it into a lens.
“Bet you didn't know it had the power to change shape, did you?” he taunts. “You're annoying, time to turn your lights out!”
Putting the lens in front of the crystal structure, it amplifies the power of the crystal and begins to shoot beams. The Brother's barely manage to pull Silent Warrior out of the way.
“Dark Crescent Beam!”
Xero, the Shadow Warrior counters the attack with the crystal beams, and there is a bright flash.
“Dark Mist Paralyze!”
Dark Sabre's mist stops Shadow Warrior from attacking, just in time for them to grab Sapphire Weapon.
“If you've got to speak to Diamond, now's your chance,” Dark Blade tells him.
“Why are you helping me?” he asks.
“We're not really sure why,” Dark Knight answers. “We got a call and Silent Warrior likes to give everyone a chance, even the enemy.”
“It could be a trap.”
“That's true, but sometimes love makes you take crazy chances,” Dark Blade responds.
“Enough chit-chat; I'm feeling neglected!” Shadow Warrior roars.
He changes the lens into a giant paper fan, and blows the mist away.
“You can't be a real man until you go back to being a real boy! Dark Crystal Cleansing Power!”
Shadow Warrior changes the fan into a knight's shield, and shields himself form the crystal's power.
“Same tired old tricks!” Shadow Warrior scoffs.
He then turns the shield into a baseball bat and hits a baseball at the group.
“Dark Shaded…”
Dark Warrior starts to use his attack, when the ball stops in front of his face.
“That's weird, it just stopped,” he says.
The ball then explodes and traps him, Dark Sabre, and Silent Warrior in a force field.
“How many times is this going to happen to us?” Silent Warrior complains.
“We have to go help them,” Dark Blade says to Dark Knight. “But what do we do about Sapphire Weapon?”
“Go ahead and help them,” Sapphire Weapon replies. “I see the person I'm looking for.”
The two soldiers look up and see Princess Diamond Weapon floating a little bit in front of Shadow Warrior.
“Why did you betray me?” she asks.
“I didn't betray you, Wiseone deceived us!” he answers.
“That's ridiculous, he's done nothing but help us. I won't let anyone, not even you, disrupt my plans.”
“It's not your plan anymore sister, can't you see that? Our original goals have been changed.”
The two Brothers go to help the others, but Shadow Warrior traps them with a baseball as well.
“We are all being used by the Wiseone,” Sapphire Weapon continues.
Silent Warrior looks up to see Shadow Warrior gloating over them.
“I can't believe the evil satisfaction in your eyes,” Silent Warrior says to him.
“You're such a noisy man,” Shadow Warrior says, turning to Sapphire Weapon.
He gets ready to bat another ball at the group, when a shower of stars knocks the ball away. Two cards then fly by, freeing the Brother Soldiers from their prisons.
“Timmy you must stop this,” Yellow LightStar says. “And Princess Diamond Weapon, you must listen to your brother. There would be no reason for him to betray you, unless you were already being betrayed by someone else.”
“Fine, I'm listening,” she says. “Tell me Sapphire Weapon, what is going on here?”
Before he can answer, a brilliant energy goes flying at Sapphire Weapon.
“Sapphire no!” Princess Diamond Weapon screams.
She turns around to see Wiseone behind her.
“There's no need for you to waste your time on the execution of this traitor,” Wiseone says.
“Wiseone is trying to destroy the future,” Sapphire Weapon coughs. “His goal is to…”
“Die traitor!”
Wiseone projects another powerful wave at Sapphire Weapon. Under the pressure, Sapphire Weapon falls to the ground, and Wiseone collects the control card.
“How dare you go against my direct order and attack my brother, Prince Sapphire Weapon,” Princess Diamond Weapon yells.
“The prince was tricked by the Brother Soldiers to say some ridiculous things,” Wiseone informs. “We'll deal with them later though.”
He and Shadow Warrior leave, and Princess Diamond Weapon stays, floating in shock. Silent Warrior and Yellow LightStar run over to Sapphire Weapon.
“Tell her, I'm sorry,” he says softly.
As he dies, the bandage around his head slips, and his black diamond symbol fades.
“My brother…” Princess Diamond Weapon finally says, coming over to them.
She picks him up and kisses him lightly.
“Wiseone…”
She fades away with her brother's body, and the two are gone. At the sisters' apartment, Sagittarius is sitting in her room when Sapphire Weapon's jacket falls. She walks over to it and picks it up.
“Sagittarius…” Libra starts.
“I'm ok,” she says. “I knew this would happen from the moment I sent him on his way. Sapphire will always live in my heart,” she tells them.
She walks outside to watch the setting sun.
“I always did love that smile of yours,” she says. “Too bad it was your last…”
