Wish Upon a Star

Wish Upon a Star

By Jay Kamiya (AKA Yami Jay)

Note: This is my long shot St Seiya fic. I’m introducing my OC, Aurore. It’s an after Hades fic. Don’t worry; you’ll see what’s going on with this. I just hope that my idea will not go nuts. I will also use the descriptions of the Saints from the anime. And I’m also including some couples… Some yaoi, some het. And yes, Retsu is an official character. He is introduced in St Seiya Episode G as the Bronze Lynx Saint. And you will see one of his official attacks.

Also:
// …// = Telepatic talking

Now, for the fans:

Chibi Deamon: Thanks Chibi ^^ But to tell you the truth... I\'m not a fan of exorcist and I haven\'t seen the movies yet...

Disclaimer: I do not own St Seiya or the characters. They are own by Masami Kurumada or/and Okada. I only own Aurore.


Chapter 3: Confrontation and Comfort

Shaka had a pounding headache when he woke up. He didn’t know how long he had been out, but his body was feeling like he had received the Athena Exclamation all over again. He tried to move when he noticed that his wrists and ankles were chained to a wall. He was in a small prison and looked around for Aurore; she was no were in sight. He cursed in his native tongue; Camus was not going to be happy if he ever hears that.

Suddenly, he heard a cry coming from another cell; he couldn’t miss it, it was Aurore.

Shaka: No… Aurore.

* Another prison cell *

Aurore was only chained by her wrists and two students were holding her legs. She was trying to get herself out, but no use; the third student had three fingers in her intimacy, bumping and playing. After a few minutes, he got his fingers out. She was happy that he stopped until something a little bigger enter her and bumping her hard. She let a cry out of her throat; they were not stopping. She let tears felt from her eyes.

* Back to Shaka *

He had heard a second cry and this time, he tried to break his chains but they were solid. They were doing something to Aurore that made her cry out. He was really hoping that he could do something. He tried to send her a telepathic message, but he hit a wall.

Shaka: Crap… She decided now it was a good time to put a barrier…

He tried again to free himself but he gave up; it was no use. A few minutes later, someone was coming to his cell. The person opened the door and Shaka looked; it was three students and they were carrying Aurore. She was pretty shaken and had tears in her eyes. The chained her next to Shaka and left the cell. Aurore made no move and that made Shaka really worried.

Shaka: Aurore?
Aurore: * sob* What?
Shaka: Have they hurt you?
Aurore: No… Not really, but it could be considered as just with what they did…
Shaka: What do you mean?

She felt silent and let tears go freely; she didn’t want to tell him that now. She just got out of the most horrific experience she could have live until she felt an arm around her shoulders; Shaka sat just beside her and tried to make her feel better. She let her head fall on his shoulder and let more tears out. He let her cry until she felt asleep with exhaustion. Right now, he was hoping that someone would have noticed something was wrong. Suddenly, he heard the lock being tempered with. It opened and it was Retsu with his Cloth on.

Retsu: You two are okay?
Shaka: I am, but they did something to Aurore… She doesn’t want to tell me.
Retsu: Is she asleep?
Shaka: Yes… How did you get back so fast?
Retsu: You’ll find that really soon enough… First, I have to break your chains.
Shaka: Do your stuff.
Retsu: Okay! Retsutsume Shippu!!! (Wind’s Claw)

All the chains were broken and Shaka was able to take Aurore on his back and get up. They got out of the cell and walked slowly to not be noticed by anyone. Retsu was in front of him and stopped when they heard some voices; they hid and saw it was some other students walking around with small flash lights; they were obviously in the temple. Shaka could feel the negative energy at full strength this time. They waited a few minutes until the voices died down. They quicken their pace and continued to go out of the temple.

// Shaka: Retsu, how did you find we were in here? //
// Retsu: I felt your cosmos drop last night. I came back early this morning and you weren’t there. I got worried… So that the four persons I met earlier. //
// Shaka: Back up? //
// Retsu: Yea… You could say that. They have taken camp outside the University’s installation. //
// Shaka: Why I have the feeling that I will have problems? //
// Retsu: I have no idea what you are talking about. //

They continued to walk when they reach another room; pillars and torches were lighted. Retsu and Shaka hided behind some pillars when they heard again some voices. Many students and some staff members were entering the room and were all in front of a statue of Anubis. Many were standing and waited for someone to show up. One of the professors took place in front of very one and the room felt silent.

Professor Haymens: I have gathered all of you here to announce that we have the five stones back with us thanks to one of our students! We will now proceed to elect our five warriors; holder of the five stones. But first, we have a matter at hand… We have spies in our camp. Two of them are already in the donjons and the third is no where to be found. They are spies from a pagan goddess known as Athena. They must be destroyed and so that their goddess.

Shaka quickly looked at Retsu; they had no time to lose. They had to get out of there and warn Sanctuary. And they silently left the room when one of the students saw them.

Student: The prisoners are escaping!!!
Professor Haymens: After them!!!!
Retsu: Crap… Shaka, you go ahead and get her out of here. The others are waiting outside.
Shaka: Oh no you don’t! I’m not leaving you on your own Retsu.
Retsu: Shaka, do I have to remind you I beat a Gorgon on my own a couples of years ago?
Shaka: No, but I’m not letting you getting yourself killed.
Retsu: Stubborn… Let me at least do something.
Shaka: Fine… Do one attack to distract them…
Retsu: Sure! Retsutsume Shippu!!!

Many of the students were hit by the attack. That gave enough time for the three of them to run outside. They were a few meters out when some of the students were almost joining them when they suddenly disappeared. The students were completely disoriented. Professor Haymens joined them and cursed.

* Out of the camp site*

Shaka, Retsu and Aurore were in front of four Gold Saints who were worried. The first thing that happened was Camus who looked at Aurore. Shaka couldn’t explain to the others what happen because he was knocked out, which Milo and Aiolia found really amusing.

Camus: She is not in a good shape…
Shaka: I wish it was only that…
Mu: What do you mean?
Shaka: We might have five warriors going straight to Sanctuary and attack Athena.
Mu: Not good…
Retsu: Talking about Sanctuary… Are you four supposes to be there?
Milo: Well… Eeh…
Mu: We felt Shaka’s cosmos drop and we decided to come immediately…
Shaka: Without the Grand Pope’s permission I suppose.
Milo: Yea…
Camus: It’s my fault. I had a bad feeling that Aurore was going to be hurt.

Shaka felt silent; something really bad had happen and he couldn’t tell the Aquarius Saint. After all, he was her older brother and most of the Gold Saint knew how protective he was over her. Shaka was, for once, pretty exhausted. Mu noticed it and put his hand on his shoulder.

Shaka: Don’t worry for me Mu… Just tired.
Aiolia: Just the fact you slept a few hours…
Mu: Aiolia, it’s no laughing matter. * to Shaka* Can you give us something that could help us to figure out what happen to Aurore?
Shaka: I asked her if she was hurt and told me one thing: “No… Not really, but it could be considered as just with what they did…” I really don’t know what it means…
Mu: Hm…
Camus: Listen, we should go back to Sanctuary right now. Milo, Aiolia, can you two go and get Shaka’s and Aurore’s belongings with Retsu? After that, we’ll leave.
Milo: Sure!

The Scorpio Saint headed out with Leo Saint and Retsu to the camp to get the bags. The three remain Saints were waiting near a rock. Camus was holding Aurore in his arms, really worried about her. Mu was standing next to Shaka, who was now sitting on a rock. In the corner of the eye, Mu was making sure that Shaka would be okay, but he couldn’t help feeling worry and exhaustion from the Virgo Saint. He knew that Shaka felt a little guilty about not helping Aurore when she needed help. A few moments later, the other three Saints joined them with all the belongings, including Retsu’s.

Shaka: You are coming with us?
Retsu: Yea… Don’t want to end up to be Anubis’ food. Beside, it’s about time I come back.
Aiolia: Good thing too. Ready to go?
Shaka: Yes…
Mu: I’ll teleport us directly in front of the Twelve temples.

The group nodded and they were gone.

* Sanctuary, Greece *

The remained Gold Saint, Athena, Shion and the Bronze Saints were now in the Grand Pope temple; four Gold Saints had left their temples without asking permission, which got some of them worried. Aioros was mostly the one to worry about his younger brother’s decision and the others complain that was not normal that Camus and Mu would disappear like that. As for Milo’s situation, he would had left a small note or tell someone else – mostly one of the other three – about leaving like that. Also, most of them had sense Shaka’s cosmos dropping.

Aioros: I don’t know what happen to make them leave without telling us, but right now I’m really worried.
Saga: Calm down Aioros, they must have a really good reason.
Aioros: I know…
Dohko: It may have a link with the sudden drop of Shaka’s cosmos… Meaning that something could have happen to him and Aurore.

That stopped everyone to doing what they were doing and they all looked at Dohko. Of course that Camus would have jumped to such a conclusion; if Shaka was in trouble, Aurore was too. Some of them had draw to that conclusion really quickly.

Hyoga: Of course, if Camus was leaving to see what was wrong, Milo would have followed. Aiolia and Mu would also have followed since they are friends of Aurore and Shaka.
Aioros: This is not good…

Suddenly, Kiki entered the room, all exhausted and pretty nervous. The others just looked at the young Jamilon and wondered what’s going on. Shion got up and went to Kiki’s side.

Shion: What’s wrong Kiki?
Kiki: Master Mu and the others are back! Aurore is in a really bad shape and… There’s another Bronze Saint with them. And…
Shion: Calm down Kiki… They are back?
Kiki: All of them. They all seem really worried.
Shion: And you say that Aurore is in bad shape…
Kiki: Does unconscious counts in bad shape?

Shion was now really worried; he pass all the Saints and went directly to the place he could feel the cosmos of the other Saints; in the Aquarius Temple. The others followed the Grand Pope quickly. When they all arrived to Camus’ quarters they saw a usual scene; Mu was taking care for small injuries on Shaka and the latter was just looking at the floor. Milo, Camus and Aurore were not where to be seen and Aiolia was talking to Restu. Mu quickly finished the last bandages on Shaka and turned to see the rest of the current residents of Sanctuary.

Mu: I see Kiki made it rather quickly.
Shion: Mu, what happened?
Mu: It’s a rather long story…
Shaka: I would like to say it’s not a story I want to tell… But I have bad news.
Shion: Which is?
Shaka: The negative energy is a threat to us. It’s actually a temple with many possessed students and staff members of the University. They are going to attack Sanctuary really soon. Well, at least the five warriors that will represent them.
Shion: This is what I was afraid of… And Aurore?
Shaka: She’s not in a good shape… I don’t know what happen to her while I was out.
DeathMask: What do you mean by out? You were unconscious?
Shaka: I got knocked out during a fight…

That got some of the Gold Saints and Ikki smirked a little; the man closest to God got knocked out during a battle. Shaka, on the other hand, didn’t feel like giving the others a glare and just ignore them. He noticed that Aiolia and Retsu had joined them. The five Bronze Saints were now looking at Retsu.

Seiya: Who is that guy? * points to Retsu*
Retsu: You know, it’s rude to point at someone… And for your information I’m Retsu, the Lynx Bronze Saint.
Seiya: A Bronze Saint?!?
Retsu: Surprised?
Seiya: Kind of…
Aiolia: Geez… Now I wonder if he ever listened to Marine during his lessons…
Retsu: That kid was Marine’s student? He must be a really good Saint then.
Seiya: One of the best! (show off)
Camus: Shaka…

All of the group went silent and looked at Camus; something was clearly wrong. Shaka knew it was about Aurore and got up to follow Camus in the next room, where Aurore was sitting in her brother’s bed, crying on Milo’s shoulder. Camus was beside him, watching a little while before putting one hand on Shaka’s shoulder.

Camus: Shaka… She told us what happen…
Shaka: And?
Camus: I can understand why she told you the words she said in the prison… She was afraid…
Shaka: What happened Camus?

Shaka turned to look at the Aquarius Saint and saw a very sad expression; this was also paining him. He couldn’t tell Shaka, but he had too somehow. He was the one who was suppose to watch over Aurore during the trip, but seeing how he was worried also and all of the conflict emotions he had felt while waiting for the others to come back. Shaka was waiting, listening to the small sobbing sounds that Aurore let out and the small whispers that Milo made to calm her down. It took a few minutes before Camus decided to tell Shaka.

Camus: It’s really bad… I just don’t know how to…
Shaka: Camus… Please tell me… I want to know.
Camus: Rape… She’s been raped.

That shocked Shaka to no end; Aurore had been raped and he couldn’t help her. He just felt on the floor, really too shocked. Camus just got beside him, trying to figure out what was wrong with the Virgo Saint.

* Next Room*

The others were waiting for the others to get out. Somehow, they knew it would be a long time before they do. Mu was waiting when he felt Shaka’s emotion take a very low point. That just made him snap out of his small dream. He immediately got up and was about to go see when Shion stopped him. He shook his head, like he was telling his student that it was not the time to go in. Mu just frown and go back sitting in the couch.

Retsu: You felt that Mu?
Mu: If you mean by Shaka’s Cosmos dropping again, yes, I felt it.
Shion: And it\'s why you should not enter the room right now Mu.
Mu: *frowns * I know...

They heard the door opened and saw Milo getting out with Shaka on his back. Mu and Aiolia got up and joined the Scorpio Saint. The two of them joined Milo. Shaka\'s face was covered by blond locks. Mu got a few of them out of his face and saw the Virgo Saint\'s expression, which sadden Mu greatly.

Aiolia: What happen Milo?
Milo: Shaka got exhausted suddenly and collapse. I’m going to get him back to his temple.
Aiolia: And Aurore?
Milo: Camus is taking care of her right now… I wouldn’t go bother her too much right now.
Shion: Milo, you and Mu are going downstairs to the Virgo temple and you make sure that Shak is alright.
Milo: Okay…
Shion: The rest of us will be upstairs. We\'ll have to figure out a plan.

Milo and Mu left the Aquarius temple to the Virgo Temple. The two saints were silent all the way down to the sixth temple. Mu was worried; he tried to talk to Shaka telepathically, but he hit a mental wall. He just sighed and shook his head; this was really bad. He looked at Milo; the Scorpio Saint seemed to be thinking. After awhile, they reached the newly rebuild Virgo Temple. They entered Shaka’s quarters and quickly find his bedroom. Milo put Shaka in his bed and Mu decided to wait for him outside of the room. A few minutes later, Milo got out of the room, closing the door slowly. Mu was not so far and waited for the other Gold Saint.

Milo: Let’s go upstairs and see what the others came up with…
Mu: Sure, but I would like to know what happen.
Milo: It’s not my place to tell you Mu, but I wish I could.

They went upstairs, Mu trying to find out what was going on.


Note: Chapter 3 was more than just a twisted way to make some of them OOC… ^^; Can you guys blame me? Anyway, read and review!!!
