Part Ten : Taboo Reprisals
His yell reverberated down the halls. When the panic reached the dining hall , Sanzo, Goku and Hakkai snapped to attention. With speed that Hakkai had no idea he could muster in his condition, he jumped up and began to follow the sound. Sanzo and Goku took off running. Hakkai wasn’t too far behind.
Jorja, Cassie, Tasha and Kyla ran from the infirmary.
The The seven rescuers met in the hall. In a flahey hey ced ced who was absent from their party and knew exactly where Gojyo’s panicked plea had come from. Goku picked up Hakkai and everyone took off running towards Scarlet’s chamber.
Jorja looked over at Kyla, “Go get Mikia!”
Kyla nodded as she rounded a corner.
Jorja barely stopped at Scarlet’s door as she opened the door. The dim light offered a sad scene. Gojyo was slumped over holding Scarlet spewing pleas to deities no one knew he believed in. Scarlet was past gasping, she was now working her mouth to no sound. Her body jerked under Gojyo’s embrace as if her muscles were trying to force her lungs to work.
Cassie gasped then yelled, “Get him off her!”
Sanzo, Goku and Hakkai pulled at Gojyo. In the urgency of the situation no one seemed to noticed the nakedness of the couple. The three of them barely pulled him off her. Sanzo and Hakkai knew that if it weren’t for Goku’s unnatural strength there would have been no way they would have budged him. Gojyo fought the separation for all he was worth. He clawed his flesh boundaries as they kept pushing him further and further away form HER. He stretched an arm out and through the webbing between his index finger and thumb, he saw her stretching an arm out trying to get to him.
The image of her lying there with her arm out; hand curved -- middle finger, index finger, and thumb tense -- trying to grab for him; her panic stricken fading eyes and her mouth was was now forever burned into his mind. He knew…he just knew he’d killed her.
Kyla dashed into the room, “Mikia’s gone!”
Jorja looked at her--- that mystery would have to wait.
Jorja looked at Scarlet and conjured some probing chi to try to find houl.oul. Jorja backed off and looked at Cassie. “She’s too far gone for this.”
Gojyo cried out.
Cassie nodded, “We have one option.”
Tasha looked down at Scarlet, “We’ve never done it without Mikia.”
Jorja nodded, “I have, it can be done.” Jorja jerked her head toward the men. “Keep him here!”
Cassie looked at Kyla and then looked at Jorja as they began to lift Scarlet.
Jorja spoke with out looking at Cassie. “Is she ready? We’re going to need her.”
Cassie nodded as they worked their way through the door, “Practically.”
Jorja looked at Kyla. She knew she was about to break tradition, but this was an emergency situation and the hell with tradition. They’d do it right when they could.
Green locked with gold as the women worked their way down the hall, “You have been invited to join the inner cove Th The Tri-Phase Moon Order….”
Kyla looked at Scarlet with panicked eyes, “I accept.”
“Child! Would you listen to me. This is not something to be taken lightly.”
Kyla swallowed and caught the gold gaze again.
“Until this point, your life here has been strictly voluntary, that will now change. If you should accept this offer you need to be prepared to sacrifice your life in order to preserve ……”
Their voices faded into the halls.
Gojyo slumped into the floor. He leaned against some piece of furniture and drew his knees to his chest. He ducked his head down and crossed his arms over his head. “Leave me alone.” Came from the ball of flesh and crimson.
Goku saw the long gashes in Gojyo’s back and he wondered if Gojyo was having sex or fighting.
Hakkai, Sanzo and Goku sat down. They’d never leave him.

The women entered the ritual room as Kyla somberly uttered her acceptance. She knew she was now forever linked with the Order. This was a moment she’d dreamed of since she arrived here, she just didn’t expect it to come like this.
Tasha rejuvenated the ever present magickal circle, and a sphere of chi lit up the room.
Cassie and Jorja laid Scarlet down beside the altar table. Kyla lit the candles and incense.
Jorja snapped into “The Drawing Pose”, although Jorja was a demi-god there were still some things she needed permission for --- even if her brother the declared War Prince didn’t.
Kyla knew the proper process for a regular ritual and she wondered if the divergence from tradition was going to harm the effects. She too would eventually grow to learn that some things are simply a process for humankind. Trappings meant very little to deities.
Jorja took on a bright light and seemed to float in the air. Her body morphed into another form. It looked like her and yet it looked like another, there seemed to be three women taking a presence in her body. She cried out and her voice seemed to be a mixture three octaves. Her body fell forward as her hand stretched out for Scarlet’s forehead.
Scarlet’s headdress flew off of it’s own freewill. Cassie quickly picked it up. Scarlet’s body went limp. Jorja’s trembling index finger pressed into Scarlet’s forehead, “Confer Divinity”, slid from her lips.
A crimson charka emerged from under Scarlet’s skin and her shoulders raised off the sliver inlayed floor as she took a breath. She slammed back down into the floor. All she needed now was time.
The three aspects of the Goddess left Jorja, their work now done. Jorja slumped to the floor beside Scarlet and after a few breaths she regained the ability to stand.
Cassie handed Jorja Scarlet’s headdress. Jorja turned to Kyla and placed it on the too young , too neophyte priestess’s head.
They properly closed the circle and Kyla wrapped a black cloak around Scarlet.
They left the room, leaving the candles to burn down.
Jorja leaned against the wall briefly, “Ok…what do you mean Mikia is gone?”
Kyla offered a worried glance to Jorja, “I mean gone -- gone.”
Jorja shook her head and stood up. She was going to walk to Mikia’s quarters and see for herself.
Tasha, Cassie, and Kyla walked behind Jorja on their way. They stood outside the chamber as Jorja stepped into it.
Mikia’s room was devoid of all personal effects. True to her vows, anything that belonged to the Moon Order was still there, including the Book of Shadows. Jorja sighed as she saw the clean and neatly folded pantsuit on the bed. Mikia’s discarded headdress rested upon the white pantsuit.
Jorja picked up the headdress and turned sharply. She left the room and closed the door.
The three women looked at her trying to gauge her emotions. Jorja sighed and closed her eyes. “What has me concerned is that they are both gone.”
Kyla knitted her brow, “Both what?”
Jorja looked at the youngest member of their circle and patted her on the shoulder, “Both Mikia and Thea are gone. We need to fill you in on a few things.”
They explained the details as they took Mikia’s headdress to Scarlet.
