Love of Saints

Chapter 7: The Last of the Battles

The next day, Ryeen was going to the Pisces house. She approached the Aries house. Ryeen looked around for the gold saint of Aries.

"Hello, where are you Mu?" Ryeen yelled inside the house. Mu came out with Kiki at his side. "Mu, can you teleport me to the Pisces house?"

"What is it with you sisters and favours?" Mu asked as Ryeen rolled her eyes at him.

"My sister only asked once! The second time, you helped her!" Ryeen pointed out.

"Okay, okay. Point taken." Mu grabbed Ryeen by the arm and they were in front of the Pisces house.

"Thanks, I did not want to go past the Gemini,Cancer, and Capricorn houses." Ryeen admitted. Mu chuckled at the unbelievable teenager. Ryeen ran inside to see Aphrodite and Kanon fighting. "Guys, what is going on?" Ryeen demanded looking from Aphrodite to Kanon.

"Simple, we are fighting for your heart!" Kanon explained. Ryeen blushed slightly.

"Guys, as much as that flatters me. Stop it! You guys are forgetting the meaning of Sainthood!" Ryeen pointed.

Too late. The first attack delivered was Aphrodite's Royal Demon Rose. "I might have gone easy on you last time, but now it's a whole different story..." Aphrodite threatened Kanon.

"GOLDEN TRIANGLE!" Kanon's voice came and a triangle shape was made behind him that sucked in the rose petals that Aphrodite was sending at Kanon! Eventually, all flowers were gone and Aphrodite was going to be too! Aphrodite grabbed on to a pillar of the Pisces house just to keep from getting sucked into nowhere!

"Aphrodite!" Ryeen yelled.

"GALAXIAN EXPLOSION!" Flying planets came from Kanon's fist. Aphrodite felt like he was tumbling through space and time itself. Next thing Aphrodite knew was that he was bashed into a pillar! Ryeen ran to his side and helped him up.

"Are you okay?" Ryeen asked concern overtaking her voice. Aphrodite intertwined his fingers with Ryeen's.

"Get out of here so I can give him one last blow before his funeral!" Aphrodite said weakly. Ryeen looked at him with shock before a golden light and warm cosmos came before them.

"Athena!" Kanon exclaimed as he kneeled on one knee. Aphrodite and Ryeen did the same as a sign of respect for their goddess.

"What is going on here? You should not be fighting each other. You should be fighting together against evil that tries to overthrow me." Athena reminded. She seemed upset with her Saints. Kanon and Aphrodite looked to each other and then back at Athena. "What were you two fighting about anyway?"

"We were fighting for love." Kanon explained. Athena's gaze fell upon Ryeen and back on her Saints.

"Why not let Ryeen decide. She is the one you two are fighting for, but in reality all you two want is for her to be happy." Athena pointed. The two men turned to Ryeen.

"Athena is right. So, who do you pick Ryeen?" Aphrodite asked. Ryeen looked over the Saints before speaking.

"Kanon, I know your feelings towards me. But, I choose Aphrodite. I am really sorry." Ryeen apologized. Kanon shook his head.

"I am the one who should be sorry. Even if I did beat Aphrodite I could not get you to actually love me. Your real happiness is more important than fake happiness." Kanon explained. Ryeen smiled at the Gemini Saint.

"Thank you, Kanon!" Ryeen said sweetly, hugging the Gemini Saint. She then went to support Dohko. "Thank you, Athena." Athena nodded at the female Saint and left the threesome.

An hour later, me, Milo, Natalia, Orphee, Aphrodite, and Ryeen went shopping (we had to drag the guys into it). We all split up our own ways at the mall, the guys obviously went to some sports store and we went to a cloth store. In about an hour or so we planned to meet up in the food court and have lunch. While on the way to the food court, Natalia was hugged from the back. The captive, none other than Mime!

"Mime let me go!" Natalia demanded. The God Warrior was amused and instead of letting her go, he kissed her upon the cheek. The guys were probably worried about us because they were at our sides in the blink of an eye. Orphee noticed Natalia being hugged by Mime and was in an outrage!

"Mime! Let her go." Orphee demanded in a voice I have never heard before.

"Orphee, I thought you hated me!" Natalia said. Orphee's face was showing astonishment. "The kiss that we shared the other day did not seem as passionate as the other kisses that we have shared." Natalia explained. Orphee broke eye contact with her.

"I know. The reason for that is because I was still a little hurt and also unsure of whether you still had feelings towards me." Orphee explained. Hearing this, Natalia elbowed Mime hard in the stomach and ran to her boyfriend.

"Orphee… You idiot! I still have feelings for you." Natalia explained caressing Orphee's face. Orphee still looked unsure, so Natalia let her femininity take charge. She wrapped her arms around Orphee and smoldered him in a kiss that was filled with passion. Orphee kissed her back with the same amount of passion. Wrapping his arms around her waist, deepening the kiss. He licked her lower lip to get permission to enter her mouth. Natalia opened her mouth without any hesitation. Orphee entered and his tongue began to roam around inside Natalia's mouth. Natalia moaned with pleasure, grabbing a fistful of Orphee's turquoise hair. He stopped and went down to her neck, kissing, suckling, and biting it. By Natalia's face I could tell that she was enjoying it. "Orphee… Stop! Please!" Natalia breathed as Orphee bit her neck before pulling back. Natalia screamed in a low voice. Once she saw Orphee pulling back and licking his lips she hugged him again.

"Oh no you don't! LIGHTSPEED FIST!"

"Watch out!" I warn my two friends. Too late, they got hit by the lightspeed fist. Both of them went flying and hit the concrete floor of the mall really hard. Orphee slowly began to regain his senses and noticed Natalia unconscious in his arms.

"How could you attack a woman like that? She did not even have her mask on!" Orphee said as he stumbled back to his feet. Mime shrugged. "DEATH TRIP SERENADE!" The sweet tune put Mime to sleep. By that time, Athena was by his side.

"Lyra Orphee." Athena greeted. Orphee got to one knee in respect of the goddess before him. "Why did you put Mime to sleep? Hilda of Asgard needs him." She pointed out. Orphee sighed.

"I know, Athena. But, he attacked a woman while she was not wearing her mask. That woman just happened to be my girlfriend." Orphee explained. Athena sighed at her silver Saint. She went over to Natalia and touched her on the forehead, waking her up. "Thank you, Athena." Orphee said gratefully. Athena did not reply walking over to Mime. She touched him on the forehead and he awoke.

"Where am I?" Mime asked looking to his surroundings. Orphee blinked and looked to Athena for an explanation.

"I made him forget about the last couple of days other than taking a vacation with the other God Warriors." Athena explained. Orphee smiled at his goddess. Athena waved and left all of us.

At Sanctuary, Ryeen, Natalia, and I were hanging out with our boyfriends and the other gold Saints. Talking about the day's events.

"We all seem to be having battles for love these days." Aiolia pointed.

"Well, Athena has no enemies right now. So, shouldn't we also have a life other than look after our temples?" Kanon said. The other gold Saints nodded at Kanon's suggestion.

"But, on the other hand. We can not get carried away by love!" Milo reminded narrowing his eyes to Mu. Mu smiled at his friend.

"Don't tell me you are still holding a grudge on me for that." Mu mocked.

"A grudge? Grudges are horrible things. Unlike Saga, Kanon, or Deathmask, I don't hold grudges. I just don't think I can trust the kind hearted ram as well as I used to." Milo explained. Everyone burst into laughter at the statement. Then, there was chatter amongst the saints... "You have to go back tonight, don't you?" Milo questioned me.

"Yeah, sadly..." I said.

"Too bad..." I saw Milo's sad expression, but it wasn't our fault. We had to go back to Calgary.

The Next Day

Today was a sad day for us all... The saints came to say goodbye to us, there were tears and happy endings too! Finally, we had to get onto the plane for London, Europe. We got onto the plane and out of the window, we saw the saints and Athena waving off to us. We waved back as the plane took off.

I woke up at the sound of my alarm clock… 'That was a weird dream.' I thought to myself. After washing up, I went downstairs. I found my younger sister in the family room eating breakfast and watching TV. "Did you have a dream about the Saint Seiya characters?" I asked my sister.

To be continued in my story, Fate!
