ABOUT THE STORY: For those who are wondering, I'll tell you

why Calbrom and Galdon were trying to kill Jupiter.

The brothers were from the future, where their people

are suffering. The aren't from Earth actually,

but fled there to find peace. The came from another

planet, were times are rough. There are ruins everywhere

and everyone of their people are full of greed and more

greed. Calbrom is convinced that Sailor Jupiter is the cause of this

since the closest planet to them is Jupiter and that planet

is prosperous and everything is at peace. Out of greed,

they try to go there and steal some of the peace, but was

kicked out and banned from there. On Earth, they plot

to get revenge. They learn that the Sailor Scouts of the

past was weaker than they are in the future. Actually, no one

caused the brother's planets to riot, except themselves and

their greedy people.

Jupiter Knight XI

By Lady Jupiter

The cool breeze fluttered the opaque curtains on the

window. Lita got up and took in the air. It was different

from the air back home. There was a fresh scent to it, almost

like a foreign scent. She stretched out all the kinks

in her neck and heard some bones crack.

"I didn't know I was so tired." Lita spoke to herself.

She went into the bathroom to clean up and to take a shower.

By the time she finished the shower, she heard a knock at the

door.

"Yes?" she called trying to dry her hair.

"It's me, there is a young man at the door for you," a thick

French accent called out.

"I'll be right down."

Lita hurriedly threw some clothes on and tied her hair back.

She opened the door and hopped down the steps. She opened

the front door and looked out.

"Hello?" Lita called out.

She stepped around and looked for who it was. Two hands

grabbed her from the back.

"Hey!" Lita screamed, but her scream was muffled by a hand.

She tried to bite the hand, but was stopped.

"Don't even think about it." the man whispered in her

ear.

Lita knew that voice, that steely voice that sometimes

could cut through glass.

"Galdon?" Lita asked, trying to turn around.

"That's me."

"Let me go."

Galdon released the hold on Lita and took her into

an alley.

Lita faced him, "What are you doing here? Did you see

my friends? How is it back home?"

"One question at a time. Everything at home is fine. Your

friends at home are fine, but they don't believe me that

I didn't do anything to you." Galdon smiled, reaching for her hand.

"What are you doing here?" She repeated.

"I just wanted to see you." Galdon took her hand in his.

Lita took her hand away, backing up. "I can't do this.

You know that I have a boyfriend. Why can't we just be friends?"

"I don't want to be just friends, and I don't know

how you could choose anyone over me. I can give you

everything." Galdon said sadly.

"I'm going in now." Lita said.

Galdon didn't reply, he just walked farther into the

alley. Lita turned around slowly and walked out of the alley.

When she turned to go back to the house, she saw in the

distance, Ken walking toward her.

"Not now." Lita's mind called out. She wasn't ready

for this. She just wanted to sit in her room and think.

"Hi." Ken called when he got close enough.

"Hi yourself."

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

"You want to go somewhere? Sight-seeing? Shopping?" Ken asked.

"Why aren't you in school?"

"It's Saturday."

"Oh."

Ken looked down at her, feeling like she was hiding something

from him. "Something's wrong. Tell me. What happened?"

Lita's eyes started to water, but she forced herself not to

cry. She looked up at Ken, her mentor. Ever since they were small,

they told each other everything. She tried so hard to be like him.

He never let anything get him down. Whenever he fell off the

horse, he would get back up.

"Ken-" she started. No, this is not right. This isn't

suppose to happen, her mind yelled at her.

Yet, her mouth opened, saying the words that burned when

they left, and stung Ken's heart. "I I think I love someone else."

Ken winced, every word was like an arrow piercing through

his heart. He wasn't hearing right. They were destined to be

together, this shouldn't be happening, he thought.

"Who?" Ken asked, not really wanting to know. It wouldn't

matter now, it couldn't get any worse.

"Galdon, one of the brothers." Lita said.

Ken was wrong, it could get worse. Lita liked someone from

the other side, someone who use to be evil and full of hatred.

"Don't try to tell me he's still evil. I had

that conversation earlier with Darien." Said Lita, looking closely

at him.

It seemed that the mask he wore, the mask that sheilded out

all the bad had slipped. He was no longer Mr. Tough Guy, that

didn't let anything get him down. In his eyes, Lita

could see pain, and a fire burning in him.

"Lita, I-"

Lita stepped closer to him, "Hit me if you want, get mad,

yell. Don't hold it inside."

Ken wanted to him something, but not her. "You know

I can't hit you. I can never get mad at you. I can't even

stop loving you."

"But-"

"Lita, you cursed me with your love. I can't help but

say that." Ken started walking away, faster each second.

"Ken!"

Ken ran faster heading for no where.

"Ken, I'm sorry!" Lita called out after him. Her tears

were flowing freely now, hot and stinging to her eyes.

Ken ran until he was out of breath, and looked around.

Everything was different. He had a strange feeling he wasn't in

France any more.

"Where am I?" he called out.

He sat on the dirt, trying to sort out his thoughts. Lita

said she loved someone else. No, she said she THOUGHT she loved

someone else. Galdon, she THOUGHT she loved him. Ken

had a sudden urge to strike something, to destruct something.

"Jupiter Power!" Ken shouted.

The magic surged through his body, almost electricuting

him. In half a second, he was standing as Jupiter Knight. He

got his hands ready to hit something. He saw a wall in the

distance, a long wall. Everything else stretched to the

horizon was as flat as the floor. The only thing standing

out was that wall. He saw no people, only him, alone, standing

under the purple skies. He ran toward the wall, which was more

than a while away.

"Faster!" he called to himself.

To his surprise, his feet where no longer touching the

ground. He was flying.

"What the-?" he said.

Faster and faster, he cut through the air and ended up

right infront of the wall. Jupiter Knight tried to get back on the floor,

and succeeded after a few times. He almost felt sorry for the

wall right now.

He took a swing and hit the wall. Jupiter Knight winced as the

blood slowly dripped from his bruised knuckles. He felt

worse physically, but felt better emotionally. This was

what he always did, he hit some hard object, preferably a

wall when he got mad. It was more satisfying than yelling

back. He looked back at the wall, hardly bruised, or

cracked. It seemed to be mocking him. Almost like Galdon,

mocking that he now had Lita in the palm of his hand.

Jupiter Knight got his hands ready for some real

destruction. "Lightning Rings..." he said, feeling his

power building.

He raised his hands up, pointing his palm to

the wall, "Bash!"

The minute the last word left his mouth, he

felt the rings shoot forward from his hands at the wall.

A great deal of smoke and debris flew about, and he sheilded

himself with a cape. When he looked again, he got even madder.

The wall was still there, taunting him.

"Get ready to die." Jupiter Knight growled, as if he

was talking to Galdon.

"Swords of Jupiter, I summon you." Jupiter Knight felt a sword

at each hand, ready to use.

"Lighting and Thunder will Clash!" he raised the

two swords above his head, powering it up, careful not to let

them touch each other.

He aimed, then clashed the swords together. As soon

as the two metals touched, a boom shot from the sky. The crash

of thunder hit his sword and shot to the wall.

Finally, Jupiter Knight was standing in front

of the remains of the wall. Finally, he was satisfyed.

"Are you done?" a throaty voice said from in

back of him.

Jupiter Knight automatically held his swords at a deffence

stance as he turned.

"Put your guard down, I mean you no harm." The figure

was shadowed by a cloud.

"Only if you show me who you are."

The figure stepped out from the shadow, and revealed

their true form.

"Sailor Pluto." Jupiter Knight said.

"Yes, you remeber me."

"From my dream."

"Yes. Now that you have calmed down from the destruction,

I have something to remind of you." Sailor Pluto leaned on her

time key.

"What?"

"If you love her, let her go. If she loves you, she will

come back." These words seemed to echo the whole world.

"But what if she doesn't come back?" Jupiter Knight asked, "Can

you assure me that she'll come back?"

"She will come back only if she is let go and realizes

she loves you." Sailor Pluto started to walk off.

"Wait, where am I?"

"Home."

With that, Ken involuntarily transformed back and was again,

standing in France.

"Jupiter." he whispered.

He looked about. He was about a couple of blocks from

where he dissapeared from. He walked back to Lita's boarding room and

stopped at the doorstep. Why was he here again? Why? He raised

his hand to knock, and the door flew open. Lita threw herself

on him, crying like a child.

"Ken, I'm sorry. I can't help but feel that way. Is it

wrong to love a lot? Is it wrong to love more than one person?

I still love you." she sobbed onto his shoulder.

Ken let her cry on his shoulder, like he did many times

before. He couldn't help but love her. She was like a child,

in need of his love. He needed her love too. But he

kept his distance, not saying that he loved her still. He

needed to let her decide by herself who she loved more, she

couldn't have any persuasions.

After a few minutes, Lita dried off her tears on a

hankerchief she had and looked up at him. Her eyes were asking

him a question. What did she want to know?

"Do you love me?" Lita asked. If he said 'yes', then

she would be his forever.

Ken wanted so bad to say yes, but held back. She

needed to find out for herself.

"Let's go get something to eat and I'll take you

shopping." He said instead.

"Okay." Lita looked down. He didn't love

her anymore. She was sure of it.

The two walked side by side down the busy street not

really saying much of anything.

"How is Serena and the other's?" Ken said, breaking

the silence.

"Fine. Serena still eats a lot, Mina still flirts,

Rei still screams, and Ami still studies." Lita replied.

"How about you? Did they do anything to you?" Ken asked,

'they' meaning Galdon and Calbrom.

"Just a few bruises from the last fight. Nothing

serious."

"We're here." Ken walked into a cozy little restruant on

the corner of the street.

Like a gentleman, he pulled out a chair for Lita before

sitting down.

"Thank you."

"What would you like?" Ken asked, looking up from the

menu.

"What do you recommend?"

"Don't ask me, I'm not a waiter." Ken objected.

"I guess I'll have raveoli."

"Good choice. I'll have a salad and a side of

french fries!" Ken joked.

When Lita realized what was funny, she cracked up.

The waiter came behind her, looking bored and uniterested.

"What would madam and monsiuer like today?" he said

in a sugar coated accent.

"Raveoli for the lady, and salad and fries for me." Ken

said.

"We do not serve FRENCH FRIES!" the waiter practically

yelled.

"Then I will have some garlic bread." Ken said calmly.

"For a drink?" the waiter asked.

"Soda water for me." Ken answered.

The waiter turned to Lita, "Por vous?" (for you?)

"I would like a glass of lemonade." Lita said.

"That will be all?" the waiter asked as a final statement

as he left the table, not really expecting an answer.

"I think the waiter was rude." Ken smiled.

"He is." Lita smiled back.

Sometimes, Ken was just so adorable. He was so funny

and loving. For the young years of her life, he was like

an older brother to her. As they got older, they realized

what kind of relationship they had. Lita had loved him

so much. She still loved him. What was wrong with her? How

could she love Galdon too?

"Are you mad at me?" Lita asked shyly.

"Why would I be mad at you? I can't ever be mad at

you." Ken said between bites.

"But-"

"Look, your feelings are perfectly natural okay? You

can date that guy if you want, it's your life. You know

I'll always be your friend." Ken looked up, trying to

keep his voice from cracking.

He hated the thought of Lita dating someone else, especially

someone from the other side.

"Okay. If you're okay with it. Are you sure?" Lita

wanted to cry.

"Yes."

Lita concentrated on eating and looked down onto her

plate. Did he still love her? she thought.

As soon as they finished eating, Ken called a waiter.

"Bill?" the waiter asked.

"Yes." Ken took his wallet out and counted out the right

amount of money.

"I will pay for myself." Lita said to the waiter.

"Very well." The waiter said.

Lita handed him a wallet and then got up.

"Where do you want to go now?" Ken asked.

"Anywhere."

"Shopping?" Ken asked. He knew Lita loved shopping.

"I don't think I can. I don't know if I have enough

money. I don't want you to buy me anything." Lita said

reluctantly.

"What about your credit card?" Ken asked.

"I can't use the money. It's not mine." Lita refused.

"Come on. It's been a long time since I've seen you

buy something for yourself. Come follow me, I'll take you

on a shopping spree." Ken grabbed Lita's hand and they

walked swiftly out of the restruant, leaving a small tip.

Ken caught up with a trolly and hauled Lita up. They

stood in front of the trolly looking out at the scenes.

Ken pointed out all the scenes he knew about. On

the third stop, they got off and walked a few yards. Lita

came to a stop infront of a huge store.

"Wow. What is this place?" Lita asked.

"It's the biggest shopping center in France. Let's

go in." Ken stepped inside.

"Thanks for carrying these things in for me, Ken."

Ken set the boxes and bags full of clothes down on

Lita's bed. "That's okay. You know how buff I am!" he

joked.

Lita playfully punched his stomach. Ken caught

her wrist and pulled her closer to him. Lita looked up

at him, her breath bouncing off of his clothes. She

got closer to kiss him.

"Let her go." Sailor Pluto's voice haunted Ken's

mind. Ken let Lita go, stepping back. He didn't want

to do this, to hurt her like this, but it had to be done.

"I'll see you tomorrow." Ken said and left in a

hurry.

"Goodbye." Lita said softly to her empty room.

She looked at the clothes she had bought. There were

several outfits, some of them dresses. Ken's opinion on

all of them was that they were pretty. Lita didn't want

him to say that. She wanted him to say they were

splendid, enchanting, anything but pretty. Lita was about

to try some one when a cloud of haze or fog drifted through

her window.

"Jupiter..." Lita got ready to transform incase it was

danger.

"Wait." the fog said.

Strange, the cloud talks, Lita thought. In a flash, the

cloud turned into a human form.

"Galdon?" Lita asked.

"Yes, it's me." Galdon said, coming to her.

Galdon smiled a smile that could both melt her heart and

freeze her soul. He embraced her with his strong arms and took

in the scent of her.

"Have you told your boyfriend?" he asked.

"Told my boyfriend what?"

"That you don't love him anymore, you love me." Galdon

said.

"I did not! I still love my boyfriend."

"You can't! You must love me. That is why I sent you here,

so you could tell him the news."

Lita broke out of his embrace and turned around. Galdon

was impossible. He was like a child, fighting for his mother's

love. He was fighting for Lita's love.

"I can't tell him that."

Galdon glared at her, "Why not? I can give you more than

he can. I have powers beyond his limit. Don't you know that

both you and I are immortal? With this other guy, you will

be heartbroken when he get old and dies, but with me, we will

live on forever."

Lita sighed,"He too is immortal. Don't you know

that he is the one for me? He's a protector of Jupiter just

like me. He is my protector. I love him and he loves me."

"If he was your protector, then why didn't he come

and save you when my brother attacked?" Galdon stated, hating

this man even more.

"Because he didn't know. He is Jupiter Knight, the

one truely destined for me."

Galdon made a plan in his head to do away with Jupiter

Knight, so he would have no competition with Lita. "Don't

you love me?" he asked, making a sad face.

Lita looked away from him, "I can't love you like

this."

"Fine. Be with him. You'll be missing a whole lot." Galdon

dissapeared again through the window.

Lita was getting hungry so she went down into the kitchen to

make herself a snack. She was told that it was okay to use

the kitchen if she needed to cook. It was included with the fee.

Ken was sitting on a desk trying to do homework. He couldn't

concentrate and quit soon. He kept on thinking about what would happen

if Lita left him for that other guy. Then he would be broken. There

would be no need to live on, no need to love anyone else.

"Hey are you okay?" Marcus asked, waving a hand infront of

Ken's face.

"Yeah."

"You've been acting weird since your girlfriend came. Is

something wrong?"

"Other than the fact that she's going to leave me for some

jerk and that the whole time span will be messed up since we

won't be together like destiny says and that a crazy man is after

her?" Ken thought. "Nothing's wrong. I'm just tired." Ken lied.

It was ironic how everyone had normal lives except him. He

had to fight for the peace of the world, he had to risk his

life fighting stupid monsters and demons, and he had to do

his homework at the same time.

"Is something wrong with your girlfriend Lita? She looked

sad or something when she came back to get her stuff yesterday."

Ken sighed, got up and flopped onto the bunk-bed. "There

is nothing wrong my friend. What do you want us to tell you? That

we're super heroes and in disguise? Do you want us to tell you

that I fight for the peace of the world?"

Marcus laughed, this guy was so funny. He always looked

on the brighter side of things. "I guess everything is okay then."

Marcus said.

"Yup."

"Okay."

That night, Ken woke up in the middle of the night. He

couldn't sleep. There was something that he had to do. It was

as if something was making him move, he felt like a doll. Quietly,

Ken pulled on his robe and walked out of the apartment. The night

moon was full, illuminating the eerie streets. Something gave him

a sense of peace.

Ken walked to Lita's boarding room and stood outside her

window. He looked up, trying to see if she was still awake. No

light came from it, and it was probably too late for anyone to

be still awake. He didn't want to disturb the old woman who also

was in the house. Ken picked up some rocks and threw it at the

wall next to the window, hoping to wake only Lita up.

Lita woke with a start. She heard something, or either

dreamt it. THUD! There it was again. It was coming

from outside her window. She got up and opened the window, looking

out. Please not Galdon again, Lita thought. She looked down and

saw something move.

"Who's there?" she yelled into the dark.

"Shh!" Ken said.

"What are you doing here so late?" Lita whispered.

"Come down and I'll tell you."

"No, tell me now. It's cold and I'm tired."

"Come down or I'll wake everyone on the whole street." Ken

said.

"Okay, I'll come down. Give me a minute." Lita slipped on

a new robe she bought and went stealthily downstairs.

When Lita reached the door, she opened it and walked out. Everything

was still and dark. Ken walked out from the side of the house, and

motioned her to follow him.

"What are we doing?" Lita asked when she caught up to him.

"It's hard to explain, just follow me." Ken walked into a

darkened alley and took Lita's hand.

"Ken," Lita said.

"Wait."

In a minute, light illuminated from the two, and they dissapeared

from the alley. Lita closed her eyes because of the bright light.

When she opened her eyes, she was immediatly dizzy. Everywhere

around her, lights were whizzing by and there was a spectrum of

colors.

"Where are we?" Lita asked, but her words were distorted.

She saw Ken say something, but couldn't hear anything. They

were both floating or flying or something. All Lita knew was

that she wasn't on the ground anymore. Sounds, colors, touch and

smell all melted into the background. There was no exact word

to describe what they were going through, it was as if the whole

world turned inside out.

They seemed to slow down as they reached the end. The end

of what, Lita wasn't sure. The next minute, they were standing

on the ground, and what happened before seemed like just a

dream.

"What just happened?" Lita asked.

Ken looked around, expecting some sort of answer to just

pop out. The most logical explanation was that they just

went through a different dimension.

"I guess we crossed into another world." Ken said.

"So where or when, or what are we now?"

"Jupiter."

"What?!"

"We're on the planet Jupiter."

"How can you be sure?"

"I just have this feeling."

Both of them started floating, not really flying, but floating

off the ground.

"This must be a dream." Lita said to herself.

"It's not a dream." Ken said, reading her mind.

"Why are we here?"

"I don't know." Ken said.

Lita managed to move around by a swimming on the air. She liked

this feeling of flying or floating. It wasn't like airplanes

where everything zoomed by, it was slow and clam.

"Jupiter Power!" Lita yelled, from a sudden urge.

"Jupiter Power!" Ken yelled in return.

The two of them transformed in the air and looked at each other.

Sailor Jupiter 'swam' over to Ken and tagged him.

"Tag, you're it," she giggled and swam as fast as she could.

"Hey, I wasn't ready."

"Too bad."

"I'll get you." Jupiter Knight felt like a kid again.

Sailor Jupiter swam about ten yards away and looked at Jupiter

Knight. He stopped, and it looked like he was about to do something.

Before she knew it, a silk sash surrounded her and wrapped her up.

She floated over to Jupiter Knight, who was smiling.

"No fair," she protested, trying to struggle free.

"Too bad," He said, using the same tone she use before.

Sailor Jupiter got ready to fire, she knew that if she shot

some lighting at him, it wouldn't hurt him. Some time ago, they

both found out that their powers are almost harmless against

each other.

"Jupiter Thunder CRASH!" Sailor Jupiter shouted.

"I don't think that's going to help." Jupiter Knight laughed and

didn't even think about leaping out of the way.

Sailor Jupiter wasn't thinking about shooting it at Jupiter

Knight, instead, the power was directed at the sash tying her

together. The sash broke loose, and Sailor Jupiter got a

safe distance away.

"Jupiter Oak, Revolution!"

Jupiter Knight had no time to duck. Before he knew it, he was

sent flying backwards into the air.

"Oh yeah?" He shouted when he got his balance again.

"Yeah! What 'cha gonna do about it?" Sailor Jupiter used

her waitress accent.

"Jupiter Lighting Lance!"

All of a sudden, a huge lance appeared in front of Jupiter Knight

and he took hold of it.

Jupiter Knight aimed it and shouted, "Lightning bolts!"

Sailor Jupiter concentrated and put up a force field in front

of her. The bolt of lightning helplessly bounced off and dissapeared

on the ground. When she got the chance, she flew as fast as she could.

As she flew, she shouted, "Catch me if you can!"

Jupiter Knight effortlessly put the lance away and flew after her,

enjoying the cool breeze. They were the only two people on this

planet, and it felt good to be alone, to do things and not care

if the consequences were bad.

In a second, Jupiter Knight caught up with Sailor Jupiter, being

the strongest of the two, he took her arm, and stopped her. Together,

without a word, they drifted down onto solid ground. Sailor Jupiter

laid her head on the metal plate covering Jupiter Knight's chest.

They embraced each other, enjoying their solitude. They both

changed back to wearing their regular clothes, and stood there.

Ken kissed the top of Lita's head. She looked up at him, thinking.

Did he still love her? The way he used to?

"Ken," Lita began, "Do you still love me?"

Ken looked at her pleading eyes, wanting to say 'yes', but

a voice kept saying to wait.

"Don't answer that yet." Lita said, hugging him tighter, "Would

you still love me if our destiny wasn't like this? If we were

just normal teenagers?"

"Ofcourse I would," Ken's mind shouted out. He was about to say

it, when in the background, he caught sight of something.

It was a sillohoute of someone. Sailor Pluto. She was reminding

him of that phrase that never left his mind since he heard it.

If she loves you, she will come back.

Ken unwrapped himeself from Lita, turning around, his back

facing her. He sighed, "Lita, we're still young. How do we know

what love is? You say you love that other guy, you say you

love me. Something inside of me keeps telling me to let you

go, to let you run free."

"What are you saying? Are you saying you no longer love me?"

Lita held back the urge to cry.

"I'm letting you go, Lita. You're free." Ken turned and took

Lita's hand.

In a second, they were back in the alley and it was still night.

Lita looked at Ken, trying to read his expression. She started

to untie the silk neck tie that she still wore around her wrist.

"No, keep it." Ken said.

Lita watched Ken walk out of the alley, leaving her alone and

crying.

"Ken," Lita sobbed on the way up to her room, "Why did I do

this? Why is this happening?"

When Lita got to her room, she didn't notice the dark

figure in the corner. She walked over to the window and looked

out. In the distance, she saw Ken walk farther and farther

away. Hands went around her waist, and gave her some

comfort.

"Galdon?" Lita whispered.

"It's okay, forget about him. I'm here for you." Galdon

whispered into her ear.

"I can't forget about him. He has to love me. It's

destiny." Lita turned and face Galdon.

In the night, his ice blue eyes seemed to glimmer. Lita

as a little bit afraid of him, but put that feeling aside. She

put her head on his shoulder and cried.

This doesn't feel right, Lita thought as Galdon held her.

Ken was always the one that held her when she cried. She remembered

the first time they realized the love they had for each other.

It was when she fell really bad for this guy Freddy. She

thought she really loved Freddy, but was wrong. Freddy treated

her like trash, and like trash, he threw her out when he

got tired of her. That was when Ken offered something Freddy

never gave her. He gave her his love. Right under her nose,

was the one she's been looking for.

Lita dried her tears and backed away from Galdon and

his glowing eyes.

"I can't forget him." Lita whispered again, feeling torn

to pieces. Part of her loved Ken, the other part felt for

Galdon.

"Time heals all wounds." Galdon said, holding her

again.

The next thing she knew, Lita was sleeping on her bed,

alone in her room. She wasn't crying anymore. She wasn't

even sad about Ken anymore, she felt better. Galdon

was right, time healed all wounds.

"NO!" Lita shouted. Her mind felt messed up. Galdon had

done something to her mind. She was sure of it. Why didn't

she love Ken anymore? He did something!

Lita leaped out of her bed and stuck her head out the

window. Dawn was approaching. Sitting on the roof by the

window was Galdon, his arms crossed across her chest, smiling

at her.

"Didn't I tell you time heals all wounds?" he said and

arched an eyebrow.

"No! You did something to me. I want to know what

you did. Time did not heal my wounds." Lita shouted.

Galdon stood up, "I didn't do anything."

"Liar! Tell me what you did." Lita accused.

Galdon winced at being yelled at by Lita. Her eyes

were lighted with anger. He didn't like it when she

was mad at him. "I simply blocked out your feeling for

that man. I am doing you a favor. You see, now you

are not heartbroken."

"I don't want you to do any favors for me. Undo whatever

you did to me." Lita was deathly calm.

"I can't do that."

"Why not?" Lita demanded.

"It can't be reversed."

"But I still care for Ken!" Lita shouted.

Lita realized what she said, relieved that she still had

some feeling for him. Slowly, her heartache came back, and

again, she was depressed.

"Are you happy now?" Galdon growled, "I don't get why

you still love this guy."

"Destiny." Lita said and closed her window, trying to

get some sleep before sunlight came through.

Galdon started to go walk to the place he was staying

in. Money wasn't a problem for him or his brother. They

had plenty of it. He was staying at a five star hotel in

the middle town. He just hoped that those French girls

weren't waiting for him in the lobby still. They thought

that he was some hot shot actor from Hollywood or something.

"I will get you." He said to no one in particular

while walking back. "I swear, Ken. Whoever you are.

I will fix it so that Lita will only love me."

Ken was leaning on a wall. He didn't feel like going back

to the house. He felt awful. What if Lita never came

back to him?

"I hope you understand Lita. I hate hurting you." He

sighed.

Out of the corner of his eye, he could see someone. He

turned and looked closely. It was some one in a Sailor fuku.

"You!" Ken shouted at her.

"I hope you're happy! I let her go, and look at what's

happening. None of use are happy. Now what?" He said to her.

"Wait. Only time will tell." Sailor Pluto said calmly.

Ken looked at her. "Please look after her. Please."

"I'll try."

Ken walked back to the house to get some much needed

sleep.

On Monday, Lita woke to someone pounding at her door.

She looked up sleepily at the clock. It was only

seven in the morning, too early to be up.

"What is it?" Lita called, half asleep.

"It's Nana," the lady who kept the house said.

"Come in."

Nana came in and looked around. "I thought there was

someone in here last night."

Lita looked down, "Huh? Ofcourse not."

"Well, I just came to say that I will be at the

market the whole morning."

"Okay."

"Do you want anything?"

"No, that's alright."

"I will leave you the extra keys in case you want to

go out. They are on the counter in the breakfast nook."

"Thank you."

Nana left, closing the door behind her. Lita laid

back down, trying to go back to sleep.

"No use," she mumbled.

Lita got dressed and freshened herself up in the

bathroom. She found the keys to the house lying on the counter,

just like Nana said and tucked them into her pocket. She

grabbed a pastry off the plate on the counter and decided to

get some fresh air. She went out, locked the door behind her

and was on her way.

She wasn't sure where she was heading, but had an

urge to walk. To walk far away from everything. She walked the

opposite direction from where Ken was staying. Along

the street, children were walking to school. Lita wondered

it she should sign up for school, but decided against it. She

didn't plan on staying here for long. As soon as everything was

back to normal, she would be on her way home.

Out of the corner of her eye, Lita thought she saw

someone following her. When she whipped her head around and

looked, she saw no one. Must be my imagination, she thought.

A couple minutes later, she was sure someone was following

her. When she turned around, she caught a glimpse of

someone ducking behind an alley.

"Wait!" she called out and chased after the shadow.

When she reached the alley, she saw it was a dead

end. The only way out was it that person leaped over the

tall wall, which was almost impossible, unless you were

not human.

"Galdon!" Lita yelled.

A lady stuck her head out the window and yelled something

out at Lita.

"Sorry." Lita yelled back and walked out, embarassed.

Lita started walking in the same direction she

was heading. She had her head bowed down. She saw a pair of

shoes falling into step with her.

"Why were you following me?" Lita demanded when she

realized it was Galdon.

"I wasn't following you. You just called me right

now." Galdon said innocently.

"Don't lie to me." Lita said.

"I'm not lying."

Lita saw in the distance, the same shadow looking at her.

So it wasn't Galdon, but who was it. Calbrom! Lita thought.

He found her.

"Where is your brother?" Lita suddenly asked.

"Calbrom is still in Tokyo." Galdon said his name with

disgust, "Don't worry, he doesn't know where you are. Yet."

"Yet?"

"He will find you. This is only to hold him off."

"To hold off what has to happen? Will I be like this

all my life. Running from your brother?"

"If he gets here, we will go somewhere else."

"No, I will stay. I'm going to face him, I don't care

anymore what will happen if I lose." Lita said, determined.

"You can't"

"I will."

"He's too powerful." Galdon pointed out.

"Galdon, please go. I want to be alone." Lita said

coldly. She didn't like it when others underestimated her.

"But-"

"Go."

Galdon spun on his heals, heading the other direction.

He was angry. Angry at Ken. If Ken was never here, then Lita

would have been his by now. Why did he send Lita to Ken? How

stupid could he be.

"Plan A had taken flight." Galdon said, walking to the

house Ken stayed in.

Ken was almost ready to go to school. Marcus had

left first, for band practice and Ken was going to walk to

school alone. He didn't feel like doing anything. Lita was

making him feel awful. No, it wasn't Lita. It was Sailor Pluto.

She was the one that kept telling him to let Lita go. Now that

he did, everything turned upside down.

The doorbell rang. Ken went to get it, since Julianna was

still asleep. When he opened the door, he was startled to see

a man, about his age smiling at him. No, it wasn't a smile, it

was more of a leer.

"Oui?" Ken asked, assuming that this man spoke French.

"Are you Ken?" the man spoke in perfect English.

"Yes, and you are?"

"Come with me and I will tell you."

Ken looked at the clock. Five minutes until school started.

"I can't, school."

"This is more important than school. It is about Lita." Galdon

sneered.

Immediately, Ken followed him out of the house, locking it

after him. Galdon kept a safe distance away from Ken, who was

trying to catch up.

"What about Lita? What did you do to her? Who are you?" Ken

called after him.

Galdon pretended not to hear and walked faster, leading him

farther away from the busy streets.

"Where are you going?" Ken asked.

Galdon ingnored him and continued to walk.

Ken stopped and watched Galdon walk by himself for a while.

He must be crazy, Ken thought.

"Are you coming or not?" Galdon shouted without turning

back.

"Where?"

"Just follow me. Lita is in danger." Galdon said without much

emotion.

Ken followed him, wondering how he knew Lita and how he knew

who he was.

They stopped in front of the opening of a cave. Ken didn't

notice how far away they had walked. Almost a mile maybe? No, this

didn't look like Paris in any way.

"Where are we?" Ken asked.

"Don't you know?" Galdon grinned a sinister grin.

"No. Tell me what's going on and where is Lita?"

"Didn't Lita even mention who I was?" Galdon asked.

"Who ARE you?" Ken was getting weary and was ready to

transform in case of danger.

"Didn't Sailor Jupiter tell you?" Galdon asked, in a tone that

told Ken that he knew everything.

"You're one of those brothers attacking her!" Ken exclaimed.

"Correct. Now, for a reward," Galdon held out a syringe filled

with some white liquid. He knew that this was the only way to

keep him out of the way. If he used his powers to extract Ken's

energy, then there was always a way that Sailor Moon can heal

him. This way, there was no way Ken would be back to himself

unless the 'medication' wore off. Galdon wasn't about to

let the medication wear off.

"Jupiter Power!" Ken shouted and transformed into Jupiter Knight.

Galdon laughed as Jupiter Knight got ready to fight. This

was too pathetic.

"I don't really want to fight and hurt you. Why don't you take

this like a good boy?" Galdon asked and raised the syringe.

"Eat thunder!" Jupiter Knight shouted and pointed a sharp

lance at him.

Thunder bolts shot out of the pointed end and headed for Galdon.

Galdon simply raised his hand, and the thunder changed it's direction

and flew toward Jupiter Knight.

In order to shield himself, Jupiter Knight twirled the lance. It

did a pretty good job of deflecting most of the thunder, but one

ball of thunder still got through. Jupiter Knight stumbled back

as his attack backfired at him.

The stumble was all he needed. Galdon rushed at super human

speed and held back Jupiter Knight's arms. Jupiter Knight summoned

up some energy to release at Galdon, but it was taking too long.

In a split second, Galdon stuck the needle into a vein in Jupiter

Knight's neck and injected the liquid.

Jupiter Knight felt the liquid burning through his veins and

soaring through his body. Bit by bit, he felt parts of his body lose

feeling. First, he couldn't feel his legs. Then, his stomach, his

arms, and then, he felt light headed. He was sinking into a

black hole. Everything looked dark, and Jupiter Knight could

see Galdon grinning at him. Jupiter Knight didn't feel that

bad, just woozy. He couldn't tell anything apart. Shapes and

sounds melted into each other, and everything was just one color.

He felt drunk to the limit.

"See, it's not so bad is it?" Galdon's voice floated into

his head.

Jupiter Knight struggled to answer, but couldn't control his

body. Am I paralyzed? He thought to himself. His thoughts

echoed into his mind, deafening him. Soon, he started getting

sleepy. Not like a tired sleepy, but more of a sleep that

loomed over him. He closed his eyes, the next time he opened

them, he was in a field of flowers and Lita was running beside

him.

Galdon took Jupiter Knight's body and carried it into the

cave. He knew that Jupiter Knight would be out for a couple of

days, but wouldn't be needing food. They were on the planet

Jupiter. Anyone on Jupiter wouldn't feel hunger. The energy

soared out of the planet itself and fed the living things. Since

he and Jupiter Knight were the only living things on it right

now, there would be no shortage of food.

He laid Jupiter Knight in a sleeping position and exited the

cave. There was something he needed to do now. He had to

go and find Lita, so he could have her all to himself. He used

his will, and willed himself to Earth. Now, he was standing in

the hotel room. Galdon took a peek out the window and saw that

it was nearly noon. He would ask Lita out to lunch and then

show her what a nice guy he could be.

Galdon snuck out of the hotel, trying to avoid the

mob of girls waiting in the front. He used the back exit and

walked toward Lita's boarding room. He didn't think what

he was doing was wrong. If you loved someone enough, then

you would do anything to get them, even drug their boyfriend

until he's a sleeping idiot. He decided that it wasn't

wise to fly up to her window in broad daylight where

everyone could see.

He tried to call her through the window, "Lita!"

There was no answer. She was either still sleeping,

or went somewhere. Then he remembered. Lita was going

somewhere the last time he saw her. It looked like she

was heading for the huge park on the west side of the

city. Galdon quickly walked, following Lita's trail. He

kept a look out for Lita, in case she stopped on the

way for something. As he got closer to the park, he

could see a hill in there. Ontop of the hill, you

could probably get a fantastic view of Paris. Galdon

squinted his eyes, trying to make out who was on the hill.

There were about five people on the very top. Three were

sitting in a group, the other was flying a kite and the

last one was far off, looking sad and lonely. Galdon got

a glimpse of red-brown hair flowing around the lone person.

"That must be Lita." Galdon spoke to himself.

He went into the park and started up the trail to

the hill. He had to pass about a million trees, bushes and

other green plants on the way. It was a shame that they

were so helpless. Galdon was getting tired from walking

to Lita, so halfway, he looked around to make sure

no one could see what he was doing.

Galdon placed a hand on a big leaf of a tree. As

Galdon sucked it's energy, the leaves started turning brown,

red, then finally falling off. As soon as all the leaves were

off, Galdon left feeling refreshed and better. A shadow

moved behind an oak tree close to Lita. Galdon could have

sworn that it was a person, maybe even a woman.

"I must be imagining things," he said when the shadow

dissapeared.

Stealthily, he walked behind Lita, who seemed to

be in another state of consciousness. He looked at her, sitting

there and thinking peacefully. He was about to leave and

let her have her peace, but didn't. Galdon clasped his

hands around Lita's eyes.

Lita gave a shriek and jumped. Galdon still blocked her

eyes from seeing him.

"Who is it?" Galdon asked.

Lita knew from the voice, "Galdon."

Galdon was a bit dissapointed that she didn't play along with

the game, but sat down anyway. He sat next to her, looking at

her with curiosity.

"What's a pretty girl like you sitting all alone?" he asked and

immediately wanted to take it back.

Lita looked sad. Her eyes were clouded and it looked like she

was going to cry any minute, but she didn't.

Instead, she put on a smile and looked at him, "Nothing. I'm

just thinking."

"Thinking of a specific thing, like me? Or just nothing

thinking?"

"Nothing thinking I guess. I was thinking about everything," Lita

laid back on the soft plushy grass and looked at the sky.

Galdon looked down at her and admired her. He just kept staring

at her, and Lita was getting nervous under his gaze.

"What are you thinking about?" She asked.

"You."

"Why me?"

Galdon sighed and looked at the sky too, "I was thinking that

maybe someone as dazzling as you should be an angel. Tell me,

are you an angel?"

Lita blushed furiously. She couldn't believe how handsome Galdon

could get when he said those things. His face would be covered with

serenity and he would look so innocent.

"Thank you."

Galdon looked back down at her, smiling that smile that could

melt her like butter, "Do you want to tell me what you were thinking

about? You looked so off, like you were out of this world."

Lita continued staring at the sky, "I was just thinking about

how big the sky is and how blue it is. Sometimes, it would

turn purple or navy blue. The flowers smell enchanting, the grass

is so fresh. I can't believe how much nature that humans destroyed.

This place use to be a lush forest. Now look at it. It's polluted

with civilization. There are so few places you can go to get away

from it all. Everywhere you go, someone's been there already."

Galdon saw in his mind, how beautiful everything use to be in

his planet, "I know what you mean. When I was small and lived

on planet Six-"

"You aren't from Earth? I thought you were from the future." Lita

interupted.

"Well, my brother and I came to the past after we got to Earth.

When I was small, my brother and I use to run in the fields chasing

flying birds, butterflies and grasshoppers. Nature stretched for

miles, not even ending in the horizon. The winters were long, more

than half a year long, but summer was wonderful. We only got two

months of summer, but it was like heaven. The sun would come out and

everything would be alive. Then one day, almost suddenly, it got

dark. I don't mean nighttime dark, but eerie. People were

fight over property, and the field we played on was taken from

us. My brother changed. He wanted power, money, everything! He

said that without power, there was nothing left. I tried to remind

him of love, but it didn't get through. After our parent died, I just

gave up. I followed my brother into the dark hole. Everyone got

mean and greedy. Soon, we were fighting. Everyone was fighting.

When the energy got scarce, we fled to Earth. To Crystal Tokyo.

No, before we did that, we went to Jupiter. My brother said it

was a better planet. He said that the planet Jupiter took all

our energy. When we tried to take it back, or destroy Jupiter,

we were kicked out by the guards of Princess Jupiter. We never

really got a glimpse of her. Once, when we tried to see her,

someone told us Princess Jupiter was at Crystal Tokyo. That

was how we ended up on Earth.

"Calbrom said we had to go to the past to get rid of Princess

Jupiter, which was you," Galdon continued, "One look at you and

I knew I couldn't. You looked so innocent. Beauty is the most

powerful weapon. Inner beauty, not the kind they sell in bottles."

Lita took all of this in. That was Galdon's life story. She

now understood what made him the way he was. She wondered if he

was still like that, what if this is all part of a trap that

he and his brother cooked up.

Galdon said in a soft and low voice, "You showed me the light.

You proved to me that I could love again, Lita. I just wish that

my brother could see the light."

She didn't know what to say. Lita wanted to cry, but she didn't

know what for. She didn't want to pity Galdon. She hated it when

others pitied her. She didn't know what she felt anymore. She

got back up and pulled her legs up to her chest, hugging her knees.

Galdon put an arm around her shoulder a squeezed her gently,

"I don't want you to be sad. What do you want to do today? I'll

go do anything with you. Do you wan't to go to the beach? Shopping?

Lunch?"

"I want to watch the sunset." Lita whispered.

"But it's only one in the afternoon."

"I know. I wan't to spend all day here doing nothing. Waiting

for the sunset." Lita didn't tell him how wonderful it was to

wait all day for the sunset, then finally see it. "You can

leave if you want to."

"No, I'll stay with you. Don't you want to go eat lunch first?"

Galdon asked.

Lita pointed to a basket that Galdon had failed to notice, "I

brought lunch. You want some? I'm sure there is enough."

"Maybe later. I'm not hungry." Galdon lied. He was never

hungry. He never needed food. Unlike her, he lived off energy.

"Is it okay if I eat?" Lita asked.

"Go ahead."

Lita dug into the basket and pulled out a submarine sandwich.

She cut it in half, offered him the other piece, which he

refused, and started to eat hers. Lita also took out a can of soda

for Galdon.

I guess this is okay, Galdon thought, looking at the soda can.

He opened it and sipped some. It was a little too sweet and made

his tongue feel funny, but it was okay. Lita took out a can for

herself and finished off the sandwich. She drank the soda slowly.

When she finished, she started to squeeze that empty can. Lita

bagan making little dents in the side of the can.

"Watch this," Galdon set his empty can infront of them and

let her watch. He focused some of his power on the can and crushed

it with his eyes.

"Wow," Lita said, astonished.

"Wait, I'm not done yet," Galdon blinked and the entire can

combusted into ashes.

Lita held some ashes and let it fly and dissapear with the

wind. She was a little scared. What if Galdon did that to her.

She knew she wouldn't stand a chance against him.

"Don't be scared. I wouldn't do anything to hurt you." Galdon

said as if he read her mind.

One look into his eyes told her it was true. His eyes looked

sincere and caring. Not like his brother's which was full of

greed and hatred. Lita shivered at the thought of what Calbrom

would do if he ever caught up with her.

Galdon got up to strecth his legs. Lita followed him and

stood beside him. Even though she was considered tall, she felt

dwarfed beside him. He was almost a head taller than her.

"It's beautiful here," Lita said as she gazed across the

city. At the point of the horizon, she could see small puffy

clouds beginning to form.

"It's going to rain," she said aloud.

"I love rain."

"I do too."

Galdon stepped behind Lita and hugged her. Lita felt the

strong muscles holding her. Strangely, she thought she could

smell Ken. Not that he stunk, but she could tell it was Ken

because of a certain scent.

Must be my imagination, Lita thought. Lita turned around in

Galdon's arms and hugged him back. Here she was, with a man

who traveled through time and space. It felt like she was

holding a child, a child who needed love the love and comfort

they were denied of for years.

She is so kind, Galdon thought. Lita would give her love to the

whole world if she could. Galdon thanked the skies that he

found her. He traced her face with her thumb and felt the baby

soft skin under his fingers.

Lita was looking up into those ice blue eyes that use to

chill her to the bones. Now, they looked lost in love. Ken's

memories flashed into her mind for a split second. No, he set

me free, Lita thought. She could love Galdon if she wanted

to. Ken had set her free and even said he let her go. But

yet, she still love Ken. Another glance into Galdon's eyes

made her forget for the moment all her troubles.

Galdon placed his lips on her first, waiting for a response.

Lita responded, kissing him back. Galdon pressed his body

harder against hers, wrapping her arms tighter around her. It

was like eating chocolate, you always wanted more. The wind

blew about them. Lita's long hair blew into the wind with Galdon's

hair and both colors of hair mixed together.

Seperating the kiss, Lita gasped for air. She looked at

Galdon, who was smiling a smile. He was hiding something. He

knew something she didn't know.

"What are you smiling about?" Lita asked.

"Am I smiling?" Galdon pulled the smile from his face

and put on a frown.

"Do you know something?"

"Not more than you do."

Lita decided not to say press on any further. She didn't

think he would tell her anyway. In the reflection of Galdon's

clear eyes, she saw something behind her move. When she

turned around, the shadow moved around and dissapeared.

"What?" Galdon asked, putting his arms around her

again.

"Nothing, I just thought I saw something."

"You're just jumpy."

"Probably."

They just stood like that for a long time, not saying

much of anything. Galdon held her close to him, staring down

at her. She looked so peaceful, like an angel. Lita had a

content look on her face. She almost looked like she was in

another world. Galdon just held her, not wanting to disturb

her.

Sailor Pluto walked quietly down the empty planet.

Planet Jupiter was deserted and quiet. She walked along,

thinking softly to herself. Lita had fallen for Galdon. This

was bad. This wasn't suppose to happen. This would

disturb the whole time span if she went with Galdon. She

was suppose to be back with Ken by now. Yet, Sailor

Pluto wasn't suppose to interfere in time. Better let things

flow as it should, she though.

As she walked, she felt something odd. She wasn't

the only one on the planet. She felt another lifeform on here.

Off in the distance, she could see a cave standing out of

the flat terrain. She quickly flew to the cave and scouted it

out. Nothing was around the outside of it, but it gave a bad

vibe to her. She walked into the cave and saw that it lead

down. She walked about halfway and stopped. The trail led

to a dark room. It was large and lit by candlelight. There

was a rock throne towards the back. Sailor Pluto

saw a door lead somewhere else. She pushed the door open

and gasped. Jupiter Knight was there and he was dead! He

looked peaceful on the ground. To her surprise, when

she looked for a pulse, she found one. It was a slow pounding

pulse that calmed her down.

"Jupiter Knight! Wake up. Can you hear me?" Sailor

Pluto shouted.

There was no answer. He was out cold. Just then,

the door slammed shut. Sailor Pluto tried to reopen it,

but it wouldn't budge.

"You shouldn't have come here," a voice said from the

other side, "Now, you are trapped here."

"Let me out! I demand you to let me out or you will

be very sorry!" Sailor Pluto shouted.

"Don't threaten me. I know you can't do anything in here."

Sailor Pluto immediately thought of something. She

took her time key and commanded the gates of time to open.

She stepped through it and was free again. It was too bad

that she couldn't take Jupiter Knight with her also. There

was a rule that only the keeper of time can go through time.

Those who break that rule will live in eternal hell if they

die. There was an exception that the scouts, including Chibi

Moon can cross also, but only in the presence of Sailor Moon.

"I have to go tell Lita." Sailor Pluto said.

She looked into the many mirrors of time that showed

what each scout was doing.
