Jayr POV - Japan, Graad Coliseum - 1986

  After a while, we finally reach the colosseum, and in front of it, I see my sister and Diadalos' figures standihe twitg bodies of the other Silver Saints 'Geez, Shaina did it again... The st time she made her victim fet how to walk, it took a lot of time to recover those memories... If I remember well they are Agol, Dante, Jamian, and Capel, among them the only one I personally know is Capel who also trai the Sanctuary and visited the Asclepieion (Hospital) often, especially when he first got his Cloth I lost the t on how many times he cut off a finger as he learned how to use the Auriga Discs'.

  Shaina leaning on the wall notices me and simply waves her hand to greet me, she is wearing the Ophiuchus Cloth, the headpiece is a more robust , with the image of a snake head in its ter, and the chest piece is simple in design and protects only the upper part of the chest, the shoulder pieces are elongated and pointed, almost reminding me of a beak, it only has the left arm piece that is shaped like a cobra, and as leg pieces, it has some simple knee pads all of them purple in color, and a long yellow sash on her waist.

  [colpse]Looking at her Cloth I 't help but think 'Really even if it is a Silver Cloth, it covers evehan a Bronze Cloth, it is almost like someoe the Ophiuchus Cloth, and made it as weak as possible...', but my thoughts are interrupted by Shun who noticed the presence of his master Diadalos and greet him.

  Meanwhile, I move closer to Shaina and hug her saying "E' bello rivederti, Shaina, mi sei mancata! (It's o see you again, Shaina, I missed you!)" and she awkwardly responds to the hug and says "I missed you too, especially since you are not there to che Geist anymore! But now, we have more important things to do...", hearing that, I nod and first che the downed Silver Saints, heal the damage caused by Shaina, and press their acupoints to wake them up and make them uo move.

  At the start they were a little enraged about the sneak attad called my sister names such a traitor and others names not so o hear, especially Jamian, Dante, and the loudest and most rash Capel, Agol instead is still calm, and from his reputation, I'm sure that he is still searg for a way to turuation around as he is one of the stro Silver Saints even Aiolia and my sister reize his valor and respect him, but after a peaceful discussion that may or may have not included some broken bones and the threat of cutting off their manhood and feed it to them by my sister, they choose to listen to reason and follow us to firm the truth about the Pope and the Sanctuary.

  And so the group moves once again, and we went all ihe colosseum, where Saori and Tatsumi are already waiting for us, in the middle of the hexagonal ring, she notice us and says "Thank you for returning all alive, I know what you all went through, but I'm saddeo tell you that this is only the beginning of the real battle!".

  Then she expins to all of them what happe the Sanctuary, the fact that Saga, corrupted by an evil force, killed the Pope and took his pce, how he tried to kill her as an infant, how Aiolos saved her and before dying told everything to her frandfather Mitsumasa Kido, who then chose to gather the orphan to traio bee Saint of Athena so that once she grew up, she would have a ce to fight against the evil ihe Sanctuary, and how I helped in telling the truth to trusted Gold Saints to gain their support to free Saga from the evil influence, and of course the fact that she is the reination of Athena.

  While, Shaina, Diadalos, Marin, and Mu, were the calmest, Seiya and the others were once again shocked by the quick series of revetions, while Asterion, Babel, Moses, and Misty were still doubtful but more restraihanks to my and Mu's presence, and Agol, Capel, Jamian, and Dante are the most skeptical, and Capel uo hold himself yells "That is impossible!! She probably made up that story to get us to help her aray the Sanctuary! You expect us to believe that Athena is a haughty spoiled little girl!? That's ridiculous!!".

  Saori looks at Capel with a kind smile, then she finally releases her Divine o, her immense, powerful, and full of love o, transding all the others I ever felt before, this is the first time that Saori shows the full might of her Divine o, as it expands outwards aly s around us, proteg and guiding us, and it seems that the effect is instantaneous, as Capel, Agol, Misty, Jamian, Moses, Dante, Asterion, and Babel, get on their knee and l their head they say "Goddess Athena! Five us for nnizing you!".

  And soon after, Marin, Mu, Diadalos, Shaina, Seiya, and the others quickly do the same and greet her, while I remain standing, as I know that she feels unfortable about it, and ihe moment, she stops igniting her o and says "Rise, my Saints! It's not too te, we have still some time to prepare and then we recim the Sanctuary and save Saga's soul! Only I'm sorry to ask you this now, but I hope that you fake your owh for now and make the news reach the Sanctuary so that Saga sends some other Saints, this way we lower the number of casualties even more!" and they all accept Saori's request.

  And after this, I took all the wouo the Graad Hospital, then I led my sister to the Kido Mansion, and after arranging her room, I then teleport back to the Sanctuary to grab my other sister Geist and Cassios, and bring them back to the Kido Mansioer be safe than sorry, I don't know how Saga will reace he knows of Shaina and Marirayal... While he could send them after Saori, or to seare, he could also use them as some kind of bait... And maybe Cassios beat some seo his douchebag brother...', so I quickly teleport to the Sanctuary to grab them, after expining everything, Geist was excited to finally get out of the Sanctuary, while Cassios.

  Aio POV - Greece, Sanctuary - 1986

  I'm walking through the hidden passages scattered around the Gold Zodiac, these passages are used by the Saints and the soldiers who ao the Pope's summon and only be opened by the Pope or Athena at the Pope's Chamber or Athena's Chamber in the Great Temple, this is because the Gold Saints have the duty to not let anyone pass through their respective temples if they are guarding it, even a fellow Gold Saint.

  Of course, this rule is only applicable in wartime, usually a Gold Saint that is guarding his temple and will make someone pass through it if he approves it, but in this st period Saga told everyoo enforce it, and to not let ahat he didn't directly summoned pass through the Temples, anyway, this hidden passage is not only faster but also without any stairs different from the Gold Zodiac where you have to climb up an infinite number of stairs.

  After walking for a while, I'm finally in the Great Temple, I remind myself of the way I have to act, aer the Pope's Chamber and greet Pope disguised Saga "You summoned me, Pope? Aiolia is here as ordered", then I hear Milo's voice behihat says "Heh, you dare to arrive te for the meeting with the Pope?" and turning around, I see Milo wearing his Scorpio Gold Cloth.

  The armor is ornate and has many aggressive and pointed shapes, the headpiece is mask-like, in the shape of i cws, that is, round and thin, with a long scorpion sting that starts from the ter of the forehead and falls following the hair, a huge ruby is embedded ial of the chest piece that covers the whole chest with an engraving that reminds me of a scorpion, the shoulder pieces have a pointed spike, and the arms and legs pieces cover almost all of the limbs, and on the waist, there is a skirt like armor that covers the groin and pelvis area.

  Spoiler

  [colpse]I make sure to appear surprised by his presence here and ask "Scorpio Milo!! What are you doing here? What is the meaning of this, Pope?", and still sitting on his throne, disguised as the Pope, Saga expins "Your surprise is uandable, few crises are so dire that they require the effort of two Gold Saints, in faever before have I summoned both of you who are the pride of the Sanctuary... Listen closely, Leo Aiolia! Listen, Scorpio Milo!".

  Aarts expining the "whole" situation "You probably already know that some young Bronze Saints shamed themselves in a circus-like battle in Japan, I did not intervene, but I sent another novice Hyoga the you disciple of Aquarius Camus, to teach them a lesson, but the hunter decided to join the hunted... Then Ikki the ander of the Bck Saints of Death Queen Isnd appeared, and did the unthinkable, pitting the Bronze against the B death matches for the Gold Cloth, this was a travesty I could not tolerate".

  And in an almretful tone, he tinues "So I sent Marin aeam to execute the Bronze, and Saina's team to destroy the Graad Coliseum... And I have received word, from Crow Jaiman's crow, that all 10 Silver Saints have beeed by the five Bronzes!", and at this point, Milo says "There must be a mistake, I've never heard of a Bronze Saiing a Silver before" and the Pope adds "It seems that Eagle Marin and Ophiuchus Shaina has turraitors, too" and hearing that I put on a shocked face 'After all it is well known, that we are friends as both me and Milo are close to Shaina's younger brother Jayr'.

  Then Milo asks "Five me, Pope, but how does this us? You 't possibly want us to destroy those Bronzes if that's the case...", and Saga replies "It must be done!", and once again Milo ents "Five me, Pope, but that's like asking a lion to assassinate a rabbit, it would tarnish the honor of the Gold Saints!".

  And at that moment I ask "Pope... Why are you so worried?", and thearts expining that the Gold Cloth in their possession is the lost Sagittarius Gold Cloth and that at first he thought it was a fake as the shape of the Cloth showed in the photo was totally different from the inal, but from Jaiman, he received the hat they truly possess the Sagittarius Gold Cloth.

  Then Saga points at the empty p the Gold Pandora Boxes stands and says "And that's not all! Look at this, both of you!! Seven Gold Pandora Boxes!! That's right including the two of you, nine Saints have pledged themselves to Athena, but two Gold Saints spired with Aiolos arayed the Sanctuary 13 years ago, and remaihe two missing boxes, Libra and Aries! These two have not respoo any summon from the Sanctuary these past 13 years, clearly indig their treasonous iion toward Athena, do you uand? This is no longer just about the Gold Cloth in Japan, if Libra and Aries should side with the Japanese Brohree enemy Gold Cloths, including Sagittarius would be joined, even if we defeated them, a war with them would be catastrophic... After all, if pushed far enough these traitors could also unleash the forbidden Athena Excmation!!".

  Standing up Saga excims "The two of you must give diviribution upon those who plot against Athena!", then I say "We uand Pope, but, whatever the reason, if it took two Golds to topple those lowly Bronze, we'd be the ughingstock of the Saints everywhere, please allow me to deal with them alone" and walk away as Milo says "but Aiolia..." and he is interrupted by Saga who says "Silence Milo! Aiolia is right!".

  Milo POV - Greece, Sanctuary - 1986

  After Saga stopped me, I turn to him and tio put on an act "But, Pope, you're sending him of all the people? Aiolia is the younger brother of the Gold Sagittarius Saint Aiolios, who betrayed the Sanctuary! Aiolia's heart burns with loyalty for Athena, and he is one of your stro Saints, but how we be sure...".

  But Saga stops me and says "That makes him the perfect choice! For 13 years, Aiolia has swallowed bitter tears as the younger brother of a traitor, this is his opportunity to the stain of treachery from his name by returning the Gold Cloth his brother stole..." and in a lower tone he says letting out his true thoughts "And if Aiolia should happen to die, we take care of two bird with oone...".

  But then it looks like he ges his mind and says "No... Never mind... Still there is no guarahat Aiolia will not turn traitor, it would be wise to have him watched..." theurns around and leaves the chambers, and looking at his bad knowing the truth, I think 'Saga, you still didn't give up and are still fighting... Don't worry soon we will free you! Just resist a little more Athena is ing!!".

  Jayr POV - Japan, Kido Mansion - 1986

  A feassed sihe fight with the Bck Saints, and the ing of the Silver Saints, and now things are more or less peaceful, if you ighe fact that Seiya and the others are tinuously sparring with the Silver Saints in the colosseum, and they are improving really fast, they were able to defeat everyo Agol, Marin and my sister Shaina.

  This had a good effe the other Silver Saints who once again started training seriously, no longer blinded by their arrogand pride, and in the spars, Seiya and the others found it harder and harder to win, and thanks to this all of them are quickly improving, in fact, Agol, Shaina and Marin are on the crust of awakening their 7th sense, but they miss that st push.

  Right now, I'm in Dr. Asamori's b, together with Cassios, as they finally pleted his Steel Cloth, I choose a design simir to a Bronze Cloth, the headpiece is a full helm simir to an a spartan helm with a purple gem on the forehead, the chest piece is retively basic, but it has its energy source exposed, like the arc reactor of the Ironman Suit, that it is able to vert o iriergy, this was an idea of Dr. Asamori, the shoulders, arms, and legs pieces, have a pretty simple shape, and so is the belt, and I choose to make it in an all-bck color with white or.

  [colpse]Looking at him wearing his Cloth, and moving his body to get a feel of it, I ask "So how does it feel, Cassios? While this isn't at the level of one of the 88 Cloths of Athena, it is still strohan anything you will find at the Sanctuary, even your brother's armor doesn't pare to it!" and Cassios pung through a steel pte yells excited "This is amazing! I finally use all my power without w about hurting my body!", then with his other hand, he grabbed the steel pte from the hole he made before, and uhe stunned eyes of the stists, he almost effortlessly ripped it apart 'Holy... And that with only pure physical strength!! What the hell did they feed him growing up? Is he a desdant of Ats?... Well... That would expin many things...'.

  After that, I left Cassios io test his Steel ore, ao the colosseum to che the others, ohere I see the se of my sister Geist, fighting with Jaiman, in the ring, she is wearing her Serpens Cloth, the headpiece surrounds the entire head and on the forehead has a crest moon, the chest piece, protects only part of the upper chest, the shoulders pieces reminds me of a snake head with two sharp spikes on the forehead, the waist piece protects only the groin area, and the arms and legs piece is basi design, the whole Cloth is bck with magenta ors.

  [colpse]Geist just distanced herself from Jaiman, to dodge his kick, whearts to trate on his o while perf a strange chraphy, this materializes in the form of a giant crow, a, with his ched fist, he unches a beam of os in the shape of a raven at Geist, but he didn't notice that during his chraphy, Geist used her Teica Segreta del Fantasma Acte (Phantom Blindi Teique).

  With her fist, Geist sends out all the energy she has previously accumuted thanks to her o, in this way, by means of a hypnotic ray, the energy deployed takes the form of an illusion, which be immaterial or solid, as she pleases, and she used it to create a e of herself who took Jaiman' move in her pce, while Geist quickly moved behind him.

  Theook advantage of the fact that he lowered his guard sure of his victory to kick him is with the point of her armored feet, and with so much strength that, Jaiman flew out of the ring and passed out from the pain before he even crashed into the ground, the dust off her hands and yell "This is the payback f to use you crows to perv on us!!" then she left the ring while Seiya and the others are proteg their jewels on instinct, the ohat made me almost ugh out loud, is Shiryu who used his "iructible" Dragon Shield to protect himself, whe passed o him 'Now he knows the importance of the Cloth... Maybe I don't o unleash the bonking dog on him!'.

  But the notices me, and the serious aura around her pletely disappears and she quickly starts hopping toward me joyfully yelling "Jayr!!", then she hugs me and says "Let's go back to the mansion, I'm getting bored here, I want you to finish Saori's portrait quickly so you start mine... My beauty is something that the geions have to enjoy and worship!", I gently pat her head and with a smile, I reply "Sure after I finish Saori's one yours and Shaina are the ... But now let's go back Aiolia is about to e".

  And so we are walking back to the mansion, with the sun that is slowly going down, giving the sky the nice color of the su, I think about our current situatiht now, everything is going well, I have saved and was able to vince a lot of the Silver and Gold Saints, Seiya and the others are getting stronger each passing day so that I don't have to fight Hades and his army alone and without plot armor, and right now Mu is in a waiting for Deathmask, who I found out the real name is Salvatore, to e, and block his futile attempt at Master Dohko's life, and vince him to return to the Sanctuary...'.

  As soon as we arrive in front of the gates of the Kido Mansion, I stop and turn around looking in a specific dire, a who notices my abrupt ge asks "Jayr, what is going on?" and with a calm smile I reply "Aiolia is here, and like expected he isn't alone... but that isn't a problem as there is an ued ally among them".

  In the distance I see Aiolia wearing his Leo Gold Cloth, the headpiece imitates the mane of the lion with an emerald on the forehead, the forms and decorative reliefs of the Cloth are cssid abundant, and the chest and waist pieces of the Cloth are very remi of those of the Romaurions, and the same emerald is found in the middle of the waist, while the shoulders, arms, and legs, keep the same style with the same or, and of course the ridiculous white cape for cool factor, 'Really, I do not uand why they like it so much... On this subject, I'm with Edna of the Incredibles... No capes!'.

  [colpse]Soon Aiolia es closer and greets us with a smile on his face extending his fist "Jayr! Long time no see! I see that you have grown a lot stronger sihe st time I saw you... A, I see that you are as much a bro- as before" and fist-bumping him I reply "Happy to see you too! It seems that you're brushing your Japanese knowledge, even more, I'll let Marin know about this... And just for reference, in a few months a manga named JoJo's Bizzare Adventure will e out, I'll suggest you read it! Trust me you will like it!".

  Aiolia nods and says "I'll follow your advice...", and as we started chatting, Geist asks "By the way what should we do about those that are following you?" but sooemperature starts getting lower and for an instant, a very cold wind hits our body, but thehiurn normal, and from the distahe sound of footsteps be heard.

  Then we see the figure of an athletic young man with greeousled, shoulder-length, warm green hair, and long sideburns, he is also wearing a Cloth, the headpie the ter has a structure simir to a "V" with two protectors on its sides simir to fins, the chest piece is basic, reag the end of the mouth of the stomach, the shoulder pieces are made up of two pointed shoulder pads overpping each other, the arms pieces are basic with a long fin that extends from the hand to the elbows, the waist piece is simple with small prote in the pelvic area on the back of the Saint is uo the breastpte by some kind of prote in the tral part of the back, the legs pieces are basid they too have on their sides a fin.

  [colpse]He is nohan Isaak, Camus's other disciple and now clearly the Dorado Silver Saint, who quickly and respectfully greets us "Lord Jayr, Lord Aiolia, I Dorado Isaak greet you, and inform you that I have incapacitated, Hercules Algetthi, Musca Dio, and is Major Sirius who were following you uhe order of the Pope Saga", hearing that Aiolia nod and thanks Isaak, while I say "It's o see you again and well Isaak! It seems that Camus told you everything... And ahing you call me simply Jayr".

  But he shakes his head and says "No way, not only you are as strong as my Master, after all, I saw you spar with him many times during your stay in Siberia, but Master Camus told me how you saved my life by ging the trajectory of my fate, it is only thanks to you that I'm noroud Silver Saint of Athena, you have more than earned my respect!" and seeing his eager expression I only resign, and ge the subject, "Very well, Geist you help Isaak in putting the knocked out Silver Saint in a safe pce?".

  Geist bubbly says "Sure" then takes Isaak's arm and drags him with her, I smile as I see his awkward movement as he follows after Geist, then I turn to Aiolia and say "Let's go a Athena... And after that, I'm sure that you also have a chat with your brother too, as his spirit is still residing in the Sagittarius Cloth ready to protect Athena at any instace... at least until the Sagittarius Gold Saint is chosen...".
