Chapter 18
PG 13

Author's Notes: I found a new proof-reader! Her name is Silver! I'm so happy! ^_^
Also I have a second, yes a second, proof reader. I run by another one in to her
to check it out just in case.
Another thing is that I'm drawing to a conclusion..well getting an idea on the
ending so..it won't be for awhile though..to my knowledge at least. There's a lot
to write before it ends! ^^ 
Another thing is that here's what I do own in the story that I made this story. I
own Merodi but not Serena or Sailor Moon, Par, Kouhei, Seij, Kaichou, Drew Terlo,
Eli, the lady (it was so long ago since she came up..heh), and Kamikaze the pegasus.
I found out that there is a Kamikaze which surprised me and no, THIS, Kamikaze in this
story is no way in relation to that other Kamikaze..I don't even know what goes on
in that story. ^^;;
What I don't own is Sailor Moon or Gundam Wing. No way do I own those! @_@ It's
too expensive they are owned by their rightful creators..whoever they are. I do know
that Takeuchi Naoko owns Sailor Moon. As for Gundam Wing..I don't know who makes them! ^^;;
So like I think that's it...please don't sue me! @_@

Now then..on with the story!

*************************
"What?!!? Where are we? Who? Sarya? Why you..you..what are you doing getting us chased
by that..that thing?!?! *looks at the encased outers and Drew*..Drew! Uranus! Neptune!" cried
out Merodi and ran over to the crystal case.
 "Now..now. I never did promise to anything that I can't make you guys run around, now have
I? Since you're now here..I may as well trap you!" laughed Sarya and her dark ble orb floated
to her and she thrust it in the air.
 The blue orb turned dark and glowed. Everyone stared at it in awe and then screamed as 
the light engulfed them all. Then everything went dark.
 *...I won't give up* were the last thoughts that Merodi thought as darkness surrounded her.
***********************
 "It has been 3 days?!!? Three days?!!? Where is she? Where?!?" a very worried Mother
Ikkuko said as she paced around the house.
 "..I don't know. No one has found traces of the missing victims yet. None at all," sighed
Serena's father, Kenji.
 "Don't worry mom. I'm sure wherever she is, she's fine." assured Sammy and then his eyes
grew worried as he looked out at the window.
 *It's been 3 days since her disappearence and those other days farther back..I haven't
heard a word from her. We shouldn't have left her alone like that. I should have been
nicer..if we didn't leave..then maybe things would have been different. She would be
here right now* sighed Sammy, his head bent down in thought.
 Reenie looked at her family and grew worried.
 *I was certainly sure that she would be back right now..is..is she dead?..No she can't be!
I'm still here! That means there's still hope..she has to be alive! She has to be!* thought
Reenie.
 Luna came back 2 days ago and looked at all of them. She was especially worried about
Serena and was starting to lose hope but the only thing that kept her in hope..no matter
how small it was was because of Reenie. She was still there and alive. 
 *Oh Serena..where are you?* thought Luna and got up and stretched. Then jumped
on Reenie's lap as she sat down.
********************************
 *groan*
 Darkness..a glass..no crystal glass around her..
 *blink* *blink*
 *Where am I?*
 *flashback*
 A blue orb....glowing.
 A cloaked woman..something..or someone in the back with a golden crytal orbed staff..
 Blue darkness coming at us..all of us..screaming..pain? Sadness? No..just plain screaming..
of nothingness..right? 
 Darkness...all around me..
 *...I won't give up* 
 *end flashback*
 *Is that all?..is it? Or is there more?* 
 Merodi got back and looked around her, she still had her uniform and walked around. She
was alone in the glass crystal. She saw next to her more crytal cases and the outers
were together except for Pluto. She was trapped next to the outers with Mercury. Next
to them were Kouhei alone and Kaichou who was alone.
 *Hmm...I have a feeling something is up*
 So beside her on the right were Pluto and Mercury. To her left was Kouhei. To Kouhei's
left was Kaichou. To Pluto and Mercury's right were Drew and them. Everyone was fast asleep
or unconscious except for Merodi. 
 *Where's Kamikaze? And where are the ones who captured us? How long has it been?* thought 
Merodi.
 Then a purple-blue mist surrounded her as it went into her crystal chamber and then she 
fell back unconscious.
**********************************
 "I'm done," announced Wufie as he got out of a machine.
 They were in a secluded area far out from Tokyo and into a forest area. The gundamian had
arrived on the day that Serena was reported missing, which they heard from their classmates.
Now the gundam warriors were working hard to get their work done. Somehow they managed
to get it done sooner than the usual time it would take them to build their gundams.
 "So are we," replied Duo as he jumped down from his gundam.
 "You know it's odd..but I get a feeling something..or someone helps us build this faster
when we're asleep. Don't you get that feeling?" told Quatra.
 "Yeah..I do," replied Duo with a nod from the others.
 "Well now that we're finished, what now?" asked Duo.
 "We should look for those missing people," told Quatra.
 "For all I know they could be dead," stated Heero.
 "Don't think like that! We haven't even found their bodies yet!" Quatra cried out.
 "That's true..I'm alive," reminded Trowa.
 They remembered when he was shot down by Quatra and thought to be dead but wasn't
when he came back with amnesia.
 "Fine. Let's get to work then," sighed Heero and got out his laptop.
 "Wait, Serena has friends right? One of her friends are Raye Hino who is over at Cherry
Hill temple? That's where they meet for "scout business". So let's get over there," told
Quatra.
 "We shouldn't. If they haven't found her or Amy then they're useless," told Wufie.
 "We work on this together, without them?" asked Quatra.
 "That's right," nodded Heero.
 "That's fine with me," nodded Duo and took out his laptop along with the others and began
tracking the lost people, captured by some monster or evil villain, down.
************************************
 *Why does my head hurt so much..and..why is it so dark...?*
 *blink* *blink*
 *everything is so..blurry and dark..almost lonely..*
 *flashback*
 A mist...swirling around her..
 Her friends unconscious...loneliness
 *I was alone...I was helpless...my friends were..unconscious or asleep..like..what happened
to me..*
 A dark laugh...green eyes...hooded and cloaked figures..
 *end flashback*
 *..what? I..don't..think I ever saw that one before.*
 Merodi stood up, wobbily, and pressed her hands against the crystal case. She looked
around her surroundings and saw nothing but the usual. She squeezed her eyes together, hoping
that it will help her see better and made out two figures. She blinked, startled, and went
back to trying out to make out the figures.
 *..those..figures they seem..familiar..but..I just can't remember..why?*
 As Merodi squinted and pressed up against the crystal case more she made out the figures,
there were two and they were in hooded cloaks from what she saw. One had something..an orb
around one of the figures and the other one was sitting down with a staff on his/her/it's 
right hand.
 *..it seems familiar to me...one of them..at least..*
 *remembering*
 A dark area..shrouded in darkness...
 Something chased us...we were helpless...a room..a dark room..
 A cloaked figure with an orb..a dark blue orb...floating
 *Me....Merodi...with my friends...where was Kamikaze..?*
 The outer scouts..the ones captured before...I was running to them..crying out..Drew! Drew..
was there!
 Trapped.trapped in..in... 
 We were tricked! Tricked by..by Sarya..the one in the cloak! The one in white! She wore a
white hooded cloak! 
 *end rememberance*
 Merodi's head jerked back and she stumbled back as she remembered more information.
 *There has to be more than that..there has to be..*
 Then a purple mist encircled her once more..Merodi covered her nose and squinted her eyes
shut, trying to last longer before the mist takes over.
 *I can't..I can't fall asleep like last time! I just can't!..no..I won't give up..*
 Then the mist swirled around her and Merodi looked out of her crystal case..seeing
two pairs of eyes piercing at her, evil eyes.  One green..the other...red...a depthless..
black-red color..no life..it was dull..and glazed over with pure evil thoughts...no 
pupils at all either.
 *...I won't give up* were the last thoughts that Merodi thought as darkness surrounded her.
*****************************
 A searing pain filled Darien's heart as he stood outside of his apartment out to the
balcony.
 "..Serena..you're in trouble..but where are you!" Darien said, his teeth,eyes and hands 
clenched tightly with his head bent down.
 Darien looked troubled, no sleep came to him at all since the day that Serena was away. 
He hasn't spoken to the scouts ever since that day, he kept to himself in his room studying
and his mind wondered around. His hair was messed up, his eyes baggy, and his face filled
with sadness, worry, and grief. 
 This wasn't the first time he felt Serena's harm come to him. He was worried and didn't know
where to find her when he first felt her prescence, it was difficult..probably impossible.
Since the first time..it led him no where but wherever he was! 
 Now here he was on his balcony feeling the searing pain go through his heart. It was as if
he was being stabbed through the heart.
 Darien stood there, stumbling inside the living room and trying to steady himself by leaning
against the wall. He stood there breathing hard and holding his hand to his heart with his
eyes closed shut tightly.
 "Oh Sere...where are you," whispered Darien and bent his head down, his bangs falling over
his face.
*******************************
 *groan* 
 Darkness surrounded her.
 "Where am I?" groaned Merodi as she slowly sat up from the ground inside the crystal case.
 "You're somewhere far, far away, Merodi..or should I say, Serena?" someone answered, with 
a happy, evil thought in the person's mind, or is a thing? Merodi didn't know.
 Merodi's head shot up by the answer and looked around, her eyes starting to make out
what was in front of her. She saw two figures and this time she could make them out, a bit
clearer. She looked around and noticed her companions weren't around anymore, except Kouhei
and Kaichou who were unconscious still. Kouhei and Kaichou were on the far side of the 
room. She looked around some more and couldn't find the others at all, they weren't here.
Panic came over her, where were they? She looked at the two figures and only knew one, the
one in white with the orb around her. It was Sarya she knew but the one sitting down next to
her, she didn't know. From what she knew, this one was the one who answered her when she
was waking up, it sounded like a man. Merodi looked at him and knew, he must be the one
behind all of this, whatever it was.
 "Where are my other friends? Where are Drew, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Mercury, and 
Kamikaze?" demanded Merodi, looking at the man on the chair with anger and fear.
 "Ahh...yes, your friends. Why they are..somewhere around here, probably with the scraps. 
Those foolish mortals. They'll be useful..someday. Now then..Kamikaze..hmm...I don't know
anything about that. We never captured it, the day we captured all of you. That horse,was it?
That horse just..I don't know...I rememeber the light that came out but after that, the 
horse was gone," answered the man and he stood up and walked over to Merodi.
 Merodi trembled as he got nearer, she couldn't move much at all. She looked at him, he was
tall and held the crytal orb on the staff by his side. Sarya looked at Merodi with an
evil smile under that white hood on her.
 "What do you want?" asked Merodi, trembling.
 "I just want the secret and to control over everything and anything. With that, I need
to know about the secret over the golden flutes you three carry and I know that you hold
that key. You're the only one different around the three of you. There was no warrior with
your power, so you must be the secret and the key to all of this," answered the man.
 "What? What secret? What key? I am not, I don't know what you're talking about! You're
crazy! I won't let you take control of this, no way! Who are you?" screamed Merodi, getting
angry by what he said.
 "You must be the one. The soul of all of this. Sarya told me you were Sailor Moon and 
Merodi, Serena. I am Master, the leader of this place. I knew Beryl, I was next in charge
if Beryl was to die," told Master.
 "Beryl?" gasped Merodi.
 "Hai, Beryl. She was a fool. She was blinded by the power, given to her. She didn't know
how to hold the power, to keep it going without sucking up energy from humans all the 
time. She wanted to control the universe. I want control over everything, it's better.
More power," smiled Master.
 "You're blinded too. Blinded by the power to control. You're a fool to think that you
can control it, the power. It's a burden, don't you know that?" mocked Merodi.
 "Be quiet!"shouted Master and used his crytal orb on her. 
 He held the staff in front of him the crystal glowed with darkness.
 Merodi gasped and her eyes widened and closed, expecting the worst. She felt a wind blow
around her and it pushed her and hit the wall. She slammed onto the wall.
 *oof*
 "Next time, it won't be that easy," shouted Master and walked back to his seat.
 Merodi eyed him with fear and knew she was helpless. She felt too weak to use her powers
at all! 
 *I can't believe his powers! It's unbelievable..I can't stand against him..not unless..
no I can't do that. It's too dangerous..I'm just tired that's all..just tired*
 Merodi continued to watch him, as she shakily got up to her feet.
 "Now then, Serena. Sometime soon your friends will wake up and we shall go on our way, to
find out about those flutes of yours that is said to help protect you from 
the evil. The one that is said to be about as strong as the jewel that they 
protect," told Master as he sat down on his thrown looking at her and at 
the others.
 "What secret?! Where are you taking us?!" shouted Merodi, her wings folded behind her back.
 "You dare question me?!"boomed out Master's voice.
 Merodi quivered a bit at the intensity of the voice, remembering the magic he posses.
 "Very well then...we are going to an area where I can find the secret..of course and no
more questions!" answered Master, almost too sweetly excluding the last remark.
 Just then Merodi heard something stir..more like a groan. She, along 
with Sarya and Master, stared at where the sound came from. They saw 
Kouhei and Kaichou groan and move their heads.
They were bound to the wall on the far side next to each other. Master grinned while Sarya
smiled through their cloaks as they saw them wake up, but their smiles or grins weren't 
friendly but they were those of pure evil. Merodi looked happy and relieved that they were
alright but when she saw Master and Sarya's grin, she felt worried, scared, and hopeless.
 *I just know they have something bad planned. Master said that he's taking us somewhere
that can find out what the secret is but where is it? What's the actual purpose? The 
importance of all of this? What? I have no clue why Master is doing all of this...no clue.
I need to stop all of this..somehow...* Merodi sighed and then looked at them try to
remember and have their eyes focused.
 "Merodi! You're alright!" Kouhei smiled in relief while Kaichou smiled as well.
 "Kouhei! Kaichou! You're both alright! I was so worried about you guys!" exclaimed
Merodi as she ran up to them.
 Just as she was about to reach them she was pulled back by some force.  She screamed and 
then skidded across the room back to the throne area, landing next to Master's chair. Master
and Sarya smiled at what happened and then Master got up.
 "What happened?" asked Merodi as she got up, slowly. *I'm getting tired of these games he's
playing! He thinks nothing more of me but a toy! A mere doll to play with! To throw around!*
thought Merodi.
 "MERODI!" shouted Kouhei and Kaichou as they saw her get pulled back by some kind of magic
and then saw the enemies near her.
 Kouhei and Kaichou tried to pull their way out of their chains but it was no use, they were
magic proof as well. Then they just stopped and looked at Merodi with sadness in their eyes,
looking at her, as if their eyes are telling her sorry, it was full of sympathy.
 Merodi looked back with worriness and sympathy, tears were welling up in her eyes.
 *I can't believe this..I'm so helpless..*
 "HAHHAHAHA! That was quite amusing wasn't it? Trying to get to your friends now aren't you?
Well..you'll just have to wait. Right now..I want to know the secret of the golden flutes
that were given to you *pointing at all three of them*. I want to know. It was said that it
could be very powerful if used correctly and it can be almost as strong as the jewel
itself! Now I want to know that power and I want it now!" shouted Master, pounding his
crystal staff on the ground.
 Sarya was speechless and just watched the scene before her, not knowing what to do at all!
 Master walked..well floated across the room toward the two boys chained on the wall, looking
at them with amusement and then seriousness.  His red eyes seemed to glare at them with
every  move they made. Master looked at Kaichou first and smiled. He moved over to get a
better look of him but Kaichou couldn't even see through his cloak or hood at all..only at
his body which was a bit taller than him and his red glowing eyes that looked at him knowingly
and evilly.
 "Ahh..Kaichou am I right? It's very nice to see you.." drawled Master as he looked at him in 
the eyes.
 Kaichou looked at him challengingly and nodded his head in response.
 "I bet you don't even know who I am..." smiled Master.
 "I know who you are! You're the one who has been after the victims. You planned on taking over
the world, you want the golden flute's true power for yourself! You wanted those victims
to make yourself known! You wanted Merodi because you knew she was one of us! You're
the new leader of the monsters! You're name is Master!" Kaichou exclaimed in a deathly, 
threatning voice as he stared at him with hatred and vengeance.
 "True...true. Most of them is. I haven't been after the victims though..you know
mostly everything about me...a bit actually. But you don't know the real me..the one you 
have known in the.." then whispered the last part that only Kaichou heard. His eyes bulged
at the last word and then his eyes blanked and then flashed on again. He looked at him,
his head shaking not wanting to accept the truth but Master only laughed and then nodded his
head.
********************
 "past,"whispered Master to his ear.
 At the word Kaichou's eyes bulged at the word and looked at him in disbelief.
 *this can't be..it can't be him* his mind said as he heard it.
 *flashback*
 A young man of 15 walked through a thick forest looking for his flute that he had always
had ever since he can rememebr. 
 "I know it's here somewhere.." muttered the young man.
 "Are you looking for this?" a voice from behind a tree said.
 "Who? Where are you?" said the young man as he looked around him.
 "Follow me," said the voice and a sound of rustling from straight ahead sounded off.
 He shrugged and follwed suit. Then it ended as he came across a round patch of grass and
a lake with flowers and trees surrounded him.
 "You are in the Secret Circle. A place that I have found a long time ago. I saw the bright 
glow of a full moon here. It was filled with animals, light, and happiness with nymphs and
unicorns but now it's deserted and I wonder why sometimes..." a voice sounded.
 The young man looked around and then saw a man of his early 30's sitting on a boulder
rock with flowers surrounding him and another rock right next to him. He padded the
rock telling him to come sit down. He nodded his head, accepting the invitation and
sat down. The older man looked at the golden flute and studied it carefully. 
 "This flute of yours is very uncommon and rare! I have never in all my life seen such a
magnificent flute! Wherever did you get this?" commented the man.
 "I don't know..I've had ever since I can remember. I take it wherever I go,"shrugged the 
young man.
 "Do you know how to play it?" asked the man.
 "Hai, I do. Strange things happen whenever I play it though and the song just comes out
perfectly whenever I play it..it's magical. In fact animals and people seem to come and
listen whenever I play.." told the young man.
 "That's is nice. Why don't you play a song for me?" suggested the man as he handed him his
golden flute back.
 "Sure!" nodded the young man and began playing.
 He played a wonderful song of happiness and kindness and the sky seemed to change in the
background, it became sunnier and the sky became lighter by the song. Various animals
came by the area and listened to him play the happy tune. The older man listened and
was happy by this event and noticed the changes by each passing tune the young one played.
As the song ended the animals surrounded him with happiness and the sky turned back to its
normal color.
 "That was wonderful, I noticed the changes as well. That reminds me of a story as well," told
the older man.
 "What is that?" asked the young man, staring at him with his light blue eyes full of question
and eagerness.
 "Well it was a long time ago, somewhere in the far past that this happened, even before
my time and believe me I am very old. There was a time called the Silver Millenium where
all the planets were at peace and it was ruled by the Queen of the Moon Kingdom, Queen
Serenity. She was a wonderful ruler they said and she had a daughter as well...I can't 
quite remember but she did look like her mother. The kingdom was full of life and love
with parties every night! Well now before the Silver Millenium was established there
was war and dreadful things that happened, the Moon Kingdom and Earth being the only
places with some peace in there. You see the Moon Kingdom had protectors...it protected their
kingdom..known as the warriors of peace, harmony, and melody. They were protectors of
the kingdom and protected something else that remained secret to everyone except to the
queen and king. The protectors had magical flutes that helped defeat the evil along with 
the queen! Together they vanquished the evil the plagued the world and established
peace and harmony among the planets. Also there was something else in there that is missing.
The protectors had a secret in stored in the flutes that they carried that is said to unlock 
the magic within and to be able to use the jewel that they protected. It is a question that
was never answered whenever one asked them or the queen. Anyways, you see, your flute brings 
peace and harmony. It
reminded me of this story and with the magic stored in there, I think that you might be the
one that is to be the protector of the world as well. Why don't I teach you? Teach you magic
and help you become a great warrior," told the older man.
 The young man's eyes were wide full of question, happiness, and eagerness.
 "Hai! I would like that very much, sir! Onegai, please, teach me!" nodded the grateful
young man.
 "Hai, I shall teach you. My name is Aster. What is your name?" smiled the older man.
 "Nice to meet you. My name is Seij," smiled the young man and shook Aster's hand eagerly.
 Both smiled and that was the start of their newfound friendship. As time passed Seij got
used to Aster and they bacame fast friends but something changed between overtime..
 *end flashback*
 Kaichou shook his head, not wanting to believe that this man they called Master was his
old friend, Aster. 
 "..no, no iie. You can't be..you can't be..Aster," whispered Kaichou.
 "Hai..I am, Seij. I am," grinned Master as he took a step closer to him.
 "..what happened to you? Why? Why? Why did you turn to this..this evil man. You're not
the Aster I knew from long ago! You can't be!" denied Kaichou, shouting and shaking his head.
 "Take a closer look, Seij! Look at me!" said Master as he took off his hood, finally
revealing what he really looked like.
 Everyone gasped as they saw what this..mysterious being looked like. They saw and gaped
at him. He wasn't what they expected, not at all. After all those years..Seij expected him
to look different but he didn't not at all. 
 Master..or Aster looked the same. He looked dignified and still looked to be in his early
30's with redish eyes that seemed to be made of fire with a hint of orange in them. He had
raven black hair and was tall for his height. His complexion changed however from being
in the dark too long, instead of a healthy white or brown complexion it was pale and cold
of white. 
 "Aster..you haven't changed much at all..not at all," whispered Kaichou as he stared at him
in awe.
 "..Neither have you, Seij. Why the shock all of a sudden? Who else would have known
about the secret? The warriors? You should have known..I'm very disappointed in you. I 
expected more," said Master as he shook his head in disappointment and then smiled once more.
 He walked over to Kouhei and looked at him, thinking about something.
 "Hmm...this boy looks seems like you when I found you Seij. Although he's a very 
good fighter. You have taught him well..very well indeed. Now how about this 
young girl here? She is a very good fighter..but from her attacks and changes, 
she isn't one of your own. She had trained by herself with help, I suppose. 
Strong fighter, brave, determined, and annoying
as well. Something familiar, very familiar," said Master/Aster.
 Master walked over to Merodi who was near them, but didn't dare try to approach them, 
remembering what happened last time. He looked at her fondly and looked into her eyes.
Merodi gasped as he stared into his dark eyes, it was full of emotions with anger, evil,
and so much more at once.
 "Ahh..Merodi..a strong fighter indeed. You're the one who carries the last golden flute. 
The very third and the youngest of all. As well as the strongest but you don't know 
how to unlock all it's secrets and I want to find out what it is. You are the key to 
everything that I have wanted to know. Now what is it? *stepping closer* You don't
know do you?" whispered Master as he looked into her eyes. 
 Merodi couldn't move anymore since she found out about who Master is and didn't know
what to say at all.
 "What is it that you have been keeping within you? You have great power 
stored in there..something that you have been keeping a secret..something you 
don't want to have..something that you don't want to face. You're keeping something
hidden and with that you can't have the great power out and in your hands to
use. Tell me..*stepping closer and looking straight to her eyes*..tell me what
it is," said Master, saying so that only Merodi can hear.
 Merodi looked at his cold, hard, eyes full of evil and more. She couldn't take this..
this pressure within her. She didn't know what it is exactly that kept her from 
unleashing the power within her..so many things have wanted her to get this over 
with, being able to face down this new evil and defeat it so that peace may once again
be restored around the world..but no matter how many times she tried this, she just
couldn't get it to work..she didn't even know what it was that was wrong..not at all.
 Merodi looked at Master..or Aster..whoever this was and then turned her head, looking
away.
 "I don't know. I..I have no clue why I'm like this at all! I just can't figure
it out that I'm suppose to accept or know to get to full power and find the peace
and harmony within myself. I just..don't know," told Merodi as she looked at the
ground.
 Master's eyes glistened and then set itself back into his cold, cruel, heartless
self once more. 
 *ahem* "Well then..let's go and get this over with," announced Master, covering his
face again with his hooded cloak.
 Sarya came by and went over to the two prisoners bound in chain and used her orb over
them. The chains glowed a black and then it came off and started pulling Kouhei 
and Kaichou, following Sarya as she walked in front of them.
 "Where are we going?!" asked Kaichou in a cold voice.
 "Somewhere.." replied Sarya as she walked at a faster pace.
 Merodi stood there, watching Kouhei and Kaichou be dragged off..or pulled away. 
She watched, afraid of what is to become of them later on. She breathed in and let it out
with a sigh. She clenched her fists together and continued watching, then closed her 
eyes.
 *flashback*
*All you did was transform and you already fainted..it doesn't mean you can summon the powers
within it....you must completely accept your memories first!*
*I see....I still don't have the powers yet...*
*No..you do have the powers..it lies within you but you need to accept these memories as your
own...to not hide it..to not say that they are actual memories..if you accept it then your
powers will listen to you instead of it taking over you. The only thing you can control is
your transformation, your sword, and being able to fly!*
*That's not soo bad..*
*It isn't but you may need your powers when you need it sometime in your life and the powers
within your sword!*
*The sword has a power?*
*Yes..it does!*
*oh...*
*end flashback*
*I was able to accomplish those but the ability of the sword's power..but what is
it? What is the power within the sword?* 
*looks at the sword that she now held*
*What else do I have to learn from within myself?*
*flashback*
"Well....the powers within me are hard to control..the voice.." started Merodi.
 "voice?" interrupted Mercury.
 "Yes...a voice told me that I had to accept the bad memories that I kept inside of me
in order to control the powers that I have...but I can't! I can't accept it!"
 "..but you have to! You must in order to have your powers! It'll help you to become better
in this new transformation of yours!"
 "*sigh* you're right...I'll try.." sighed Merodi.
*end flashback*
*Thanks to Mercury and everyone else that helped I was able to control the ability to
transform!*
*flashback*
"Remember....think of a "bad" memory as you do this and accept it," warned Mercury.
 Merodi thought of one, a memory. She thought of the time when she argued with her parents and
Sammy. It was simple and easy to accept and so she let that in. As she thought of this bright
lights surrounded her once more and she turned back to Serena. Serena opened her eyes
and she was happy to know that she changed back with out fainting.
 "This is great! I didn't pass out!" announced Serena.
 "So you accomplished that! Now all you have to do is accept more memories and soon you will
be stronger than ever!" said Mercury.
*end flashback*
"Arigatou Mercury..for helping me. I will have to try and become stronger in order to
defeat this new evil..even if Seij is an old friend of his..maybe I can heal him instead..
if I can..I must try..for everyone ..for Drew," Merodi said to herself, clutching the sword
on her hand.
 Then she looked straight ahead and saw that Master was there..looking at her with his
red glowing eyes and his crystal orbed staff.
 "Ready?" asked Master.
 *More like a command then a question* though Merodi as she nodded her head and walked
up to him.
 "I know that you are the key, Merodi. You are strong and very loyal to your friends from
what I have heard from Sarya. You must be.." complimented Master as he walked beside her.
 *He wants something from me..he knows something doesn't he?*
 "You're not quite sure of me and I must agree..I can't be trusted you are the defender
of your world. I am against you and you me. We are enemies but right now..you have no
choice. You are my prisoner here and there is something I haven't said to Seij from
so long ago," told Master.
 "..and what is that?" asked Merodi, looking straight ahead as they walked down a dark
corridor.
 "A long time ago...I have heard that each of the three warriors possesed things that were
different from one another. Each were strong but at different lengths. One of them was
the strongest. That warrior had unique abilities and together the three became 
invincible. Together they managed to defeat the evil whenever needed. One of each stood
for one pf the signs. Peace, Harmony, and Melody. Which fits all of you from the
names and each one of you had a unique ability but one had the rarest of the three. I believe
that you, Merodi are that certain warrior. Kouhei is obviously Peace from the way he is.
Kaichou is Harmony..his name says it as well as his actions whenever with friends and
he didn't do much to me. You are Merodi standing for Melody. You have a different clothing,
different hair style. You have changed the most out of the three. You have the sword," told
Master.
 "What? So what if I have changed a bit on my appearance and clothing! That doesn't mean
much. What do you mean about the sword?" asked Merodi, looking stunned and questioning.
 "The sword holds great power and said to activate the powers to be able to find the 
jewel and help protect it. The sword helps to get the secret out of the flutes as well. 
That is why I have the three of you. Together you warriors shall activate that power and
send your energy to it, activating the spell," told Master.
 "What makes you think I would do this for you?" said Merodi in a threatning voice.
 They now reached the area where it was said the secrets were to be revealed there.
They saw a brown circle at the center with water around the borders of that circle and
there were marking on th
