Sephrina
After these events from when we were in prison,I always wondered what Pluto is going to do next.

Right now,I'm in the library with Patrick,who somehow decided to come here when I was trying to get Napoleon out of my bedroom...which didn't succeed as I thought it would.

"Well,all of those shots you took made yourself a member of the Guardians,a true Guardian you are,Sephrina."
"Thanks."

"Anyways,as your protector/mentor-"
"Mentor? Who said I needed a mentor?"
"My master did."
"Your Guardian?"
"Yes."
"Okay."

"Now,Pluto has a lot of power due to mind-controlling Jelhiro. He also has access to places like other Universe's,other societies across the Universe,but the only power that he doesn't have is the most powerful of them all."
"And that is?"
"I'm about to show you,Guardian."

He holds out a hand and a book magically forces itself into his hand.

"I've been learning magic all my life as a protector."
"I see that. But,they do it all on their own because of my godfather visiting-"
"Tom Riddle? Oh,I met him once,not a friendly encounter though."
"What happened?"
"He was his old,evil self."
"The snake like?"
"Yes. Unfortunately. But,this is not about him. It's about you."
"Me?"
"You."
"Okay then..."

I go on to make another conversation as he opens the book halfway,reading it.

"So,ever since we got out of the prison,I always wondered when Pluto and Jelhiro are ever coming back to kill us-"
"Hmm...I see."
"-and whenever I sleep I can't help but think about them again."
"Uh huh."
"So,I was wondering since you're my "mentor" you could help me?"
"Sure."
"Oh,thanks,Patrick."
"You're welcome."

"Wait...how can you hear me?"
"I'm a multi-tasker. I had to multi-task all my life in order to find you."
"Find me? I'm confused..."
He sighs and leaves the book the way it is,walking over to another projector screen.

He pulls up a picture of a big stone building that looks like a CEO building. The stone is carved into what it needs to become a house,meaning that these people that work here must also have magic powers like the Guardians. The windows are also new. They're painted a shade of light tinted pink and dark purple,meaning that the people who made the windows were women. The door looks like a regular door with black paint spread across it,but there's also a coat of arms sign meaning that it must be restricted to people who think otherwise.

"Sephrina,codename Saturn,has been a part of our naming industry forever. We have never found the right woman to properly name her Sephrina...until you came along. This building has been around since the Guardian,Kristof,who has been a very good protector of his Universe and was a very good man. He never married and always did what the Universe told him to do.

Now,there's another person...a very different person. She's not the first women to become a Guardian,but she did became the first women to become a master.

Since her Universe destroyed itself,its ancestors live in others. Like this man-"

He moves his hand to the right and a new slide shows up with a man who's hair is short and black,wears a black mask that looks like a doctor's mask,has very fiery red eyes that makes it look like he has pink eye,and wears a trench coat that looks like he stole it from my recent husband(10th Doctor).

"This man is named Desaiful...do you know him?"
"Yes."
"Thought so. Anyone can know him. Somehow,Jelhiro-"
"Jelhiro met him in prison,he broke out,Jelhiro got pissed,asked Pluto to give him a better life,Pluto made him his servent,made him try to get married to me,then found out that Desaiful got inside Shadow and now he's under Pluto's control...again."
"After he saw Bonaparte kiss you,yes."
"Wait...how do you know all of this?"
"Because we have been watching everything."
"You don't watch anyone else?"
"No,Saturn. We know everyone else can control themselves...but you can't."
"Why?!"
"Because they said that women need a better eye...and you don't."
"How dare you! Who even-"
"The three male Guardians made all the rules,mostly the Greek Guardian."
"Why?"
"Well,the Roman Guardian was too busy helping Julius Caesar out with his army,the Latin Guardian was busy with Jesus' crucifixion and making new popes come out of thin air and the Greek Guardian really didn't have to do anything except to watch the Earth multiply with humans."
"Oh..."
"Anyways-"

The door bursts wide open with Napoleon behind it,looking at the both of us,panting.

"Sorry,Patrick. Can I just...talk to Sephrina for a second?"

He motions me towards him and I nod my head,going over towards Napoleon. I go out of the door,with Napoleon shutting the door and following me behind.

"So,what is it you want to talk about?"
He stares at me,not saying a word. "Napoleon?" I say,getting scared of this now. He still stares,not moving a muscle. "Bonaparte?" I slap him with my hand,but he still doesn't move. "Hey." I sweetly say,hoping he could really hear my voice. "Napoleon Bonaparte." I say,getting annoyed now. "Napoleon...are you going to talk or am I just going to have to leave?"

I leave him after a few seconds,getting tires of his "hey,want to come out?" and his staring that makes me even more pissed than I already am.

As I make my way towards the kitchen,I hear a noise come from the hallway and I sneak down behind the staircase. Seeing a doorknob,I turn it and I go inside the "dark as night" room,shutting it afterwords.

"Why does Napoleon always run off to see her?" I hear Scarlet say,thinking that she's either mad or worried about him,but I can't tell because of her change of tone. "I have no idea,Scarlet. But,please calm down. You're a Time-Lady which means-" Scarlet bites the person's finger who I know is her husband,Red,because he screeches like a woman every time he yells now.

"I know what my species is,dum-dum!" "Sorry! I still have no idea what your species is like so,I try to calm you-" "Don't get protective over me,Red. I still have things moving in my brain and one of them might be a plan to kill you right where you stand." "Okay...okay. But,why are you so mad at Napoleon?" Oh,she's mad...thanks Red!

"Because every time he goes to her he freezes up and stands there doing nothing! As I saw them right there!" "You stalked them?!" "No,silly. I was just reading a book in the library when I saw Napoleon come over to where Sephrina and Patrick were and saw them go out and Sephrina trying her hardest to make him speak." "So,you were stalking and reading at the same time?" I hear Scarlet make a smacking sound,which means she must have slapped him. "No,Red! God...I think you should go back to mute."

I hear her footsteps get quieter and quieter as she walks back the way she came. I hear Red sigh as he follows her saying,"Napoleon always wants to be with her...but he never knows that someone else might have her heart."

I get out of the dark room under the stairs and shut the door behind me.

"BOO!" I almost jump out of my skin,literally as I press my hand to my chest. I turn around to see Napoleon smirking evilly at me,crossing his arms together.
"Scared you,didn't I? Thought I couldn't?"
"You better walk away."
"Why? I scared the hell out of your robotic ass."
"Go." I point my finger at the stairs angrily,making my teeth go together.
"Get...up...stairs...now."
"Why? I have nothing to do up-he watches my eyes look up and down at him-oh,oh yeah! Yes,I do. I'll get right on it. Thanks for reminding me,gotta go."

He rushes up the stairs and shuts the bedroom door,hearing his footsteps fade.

I go over to the kitchen to get something to eat because I've been starving since forever.
After a half-hour of eating,I'm drinking a cup of tea as I hear a door open and shut,also hearing footsteps come down the stairs.

(This paragraph is third point of view;I wanted it to be descriptive and clear to me and to the reader)
Napoleon comes in,his face simple and plain as one of his portraits. He comes and sits down across from her,his eyes cold like the frost of winter,but when he looks at her eyes he smiles,then turns away,looking at the wall.

I look down at my cup of tea,half empty. I stare at my reflection,which makes a swirl of pain and depression that only I can see. If I could go back and change my family,I could be here again,except I would have a different and beautiful life,and I hope that I could be welcomed back home with open arms...but I know that's never going to happen.

I hear Napoleon's low and cold voice whisper to me softly,with my face still looking at my reflection. "Sephrina,I'm sorry for scaring you to death,and I'm sorry for making you mad. It won't happen again."

The reflection on the tea turns into a black color,black as ebony. It shows all of my childhood and my early life through my husband's death. All of these images flash before my eyes as I hear Napoleon speak again. "If I could help you in whatever you're working on,I'll be more than happy to help you. I also took Patrick to Fiona's place,but somehow she wasn't home....which was good for me at least."

I pound my hands onto the table,making him look up at me,his eyes not softening. I breath in and out like a wolf who just lost his breath to take down a pigs brick house. I keep looking down at my tea,trying to keep my focus at all times.

"You...you had one thing...that was ours. You...we...us...everything we ever did...was it out of love,hatred,force,lust,or is my father abusing you to marry me?"
"Why would I even listen to your father?"
"Hes the god of all gods. He makes the rules,he makes the games...he makes everything."
"He made you?"
"He made everything and everyone I ever loved and liked. Everyone that is dead because of my family or some damn accident. He made all the new laws,he made everything that has to do with your Earth. I'm wondering if he ever looked at you with his big shining red blooded eyes and said to you with a cold and deep,angry tone,"Will you beat and marry my daughter? Will you make her suffer until she can't be here in this life no more? Will you be that man that I can trust...to kill herself?" I also wondered if you said yes."

I raise my voice to make sure he gets what I'm saying. '"HELL YES!" You said. "I WOULD BEAT THE HELL OUT OF HER UNTIL SHE BLEEDS TO HER INSIDES!" And then you came here and you got me. Fair and square. You can take me to any level in the Universe...only I would surrender to you."

He looks deeply at me,his eyes growing soft and his eyebrows raising as he grows gentle and worried at my voice.

"My life is a hellhole. It's been that way ever since I was created. Ever since I got my powers,I tried to make it up for it,and every time I do it,you or someone else makes it horribly wrong and that's the end. Nothing else can be done except for watching everything go down. As I watch,mountains grow,waters rise,and volcanoes erupt. Earthquakes rumble,the Earth shakes,and only I can stop them from happening. If you were a Guardian,there would be no turning back...not like the Time-Lords."

I look up at him and see that his face is back to being normal and looking the other way. I look down at my cup of tea and the same reflection is still there.

I grab my hand,which is shaking from how much force I put on the table,put it on the cup and instead of going to the sink and washing it,I throw the cup at the wall,shattering it into pieces,making him suddenly look at the cup and up to me,where I stand and make a small and whispery noise that sounds like crickets chirping at night.

Without making another noise with my mouth,I walk upstairs and to my bedroom,slamming the door and putting my back to it. I slide down and put my head in my hands,not crying,just sighing and shaking it,almost violently.

I hear a knock on the door,then a sigh with a whisper,"I'm sorry." It says,but I know who it is. "Sephrina,could you please let me in?" I move out of the way and sit on the edge of the bed,holding onto the pole that holds it up.

The door opens with Napoleon behind it,looking over at me with sadness in his eyes but his lips make it look like he's also angry at me. "Sephrina,are you okay?" I don't answer which makes him come over to me and put his arms around me,hugging me.

Well,I shouldn't hold all of my sadness inside me,now should I?

I wrap my arms around him,too,putting my head on his shoulder. I feel him stroking my hair,making me more calm than I was last time.

"I'm here now...I'm not going anywhere." He whispers to me,making me build up tears in my eyes. I drop some onto my cheeks and onto his shoulder,making me pull myself back to see his face. More tears come down my face and he wipes them all away with his thumbs,smiling at me as he does it.

"Why are you smiling? You like to see me cry?" I say,getting more sad now that he's chuckling at me.
"You're beautiful either way." He says,kissing my cheeks.
"What do you think about me?"
"I think you're the most beautiful,smart,courageous,and the most powerful of them all."
"That's...kind of true."
"Well,its true to me."

"Napoleon?"
"Hmm?"
"What does Red mean when he said,"But he never knows that someone else might have her heart.""
"What do you mean?"
"Red thinks that someone else has gotten my heart."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"Red usually says what he wants nowadays. I mostly ignore them."

"Napoleon...I love you to the death of me."
"I thought you said I couldn't say that."
"That's because you can die. You can't choose,but I can."
"Hmm...good answer." I laugh and kiss his forehead.
"I love you."
"I love you too,Sephrina."

We press our lips together and it feels like I never felt them in a long time,and that I need to start loving them again.

His lips are soft and cold,but not freezing cold. His eyes close themselves,making the blue eyes disappear and making me sad...making me feel blue like his eyes.

I pull back and close my eyes,looking down. I feel his hand go under my chin,meaning that he raises my head up to his level.

"Hey,please look at me." He softly says,making me shake my head. "Please?" He whispers,making me shake my head again. "I'll stay here,holding onto you,begging and begging...begging on my knees to make you look at me." I shake my head again,not opening my eyes at all.

I hear a creak from the bed and then a small sound on the ground that makes my feet vibrate. I feel cold hands go on top of mine,covering my hands like my hands are baby hands.

"Sephrina,please." I hear Napoleon say,feeling his hands move towards him,taking my hands that are in his with him. I feel his hands go on top of mine,pressing it to his chest,just so I feel his heartbeat. His heartbeat is fast,just like every time he's with me.

I sake my head no again,only for him to put my hands gently back to where they were at.

"Please Sephrina,please." I hear him beg again,making me say,
"Why should I listen? You always smile at me,you always laugh when I don't want you to laugh,you do things that...I think are wrong."
"I never smile at you when you're hurt. Now,please open your eyes. Please..."

I finally open my eyes,seeing him with his face sad and full with tears that are going to fall down his face.

"See? I'm not happy...I'm not." He tries to keep his tears in,but instead let's them all out,knowing if he doesn't,I wouldn't help him. "I'm...crying."

He spreads his arms out,making more tears fall down his face again. "Oh,Sephrina...if only you could see how I feel. If only you were me. If only..."
"If I didn't have powers,you would still love me,right?"
"Of course."
"And will you still be with me if I had a different life?"
"Always."
"What if we never met?"
"I would search the depths of the Universe to find you."
"What if I was a human?"
"I would still find you."
"What if I was your bodyguard again?"
"I would keep you forever."
"And if you're mad?"

He takes my hands and puts them to his cheeks,letting his last tear out.

"I would keep falling in love with you. No matter what my mood is. I will always love you,Sephrina. I will always,always love you."
"You mean it?"
"Every single word."

I start to make tears as well as I wipe his last tear from his cheek,making him put his hand back on my hand,pulling it away from me. He looks at it and kisses the inside and the outside,looking up at me with eyes filled of love and gentleness.

I let all of my tears come out,making him put his hands on my cheeks,wiping them off my face. I smile as my last tear disappears from his thumb,looking deeply into his eyes. He smiles back,making me chuckle. He does an after chuckle and looks back at me,his eyes only looking at me,and me only.

"I would love to stare into your eyes forever...always getting lost."
"Why are your eyes so blue?"
"Because they are?"
"But why?"
"Because of what happens in my eyes?"
"They are so...wonderful." I say,getting lost in his eyes.
"Umm...thanks."
I sigh,getting closer to see his eyes better.

"What are you doing?" He says,smiling at me as I get closer to him.
"Blue...mmmm...so blue." He touches my nose and I giggle,making him smile brightly at me.
"Stop laughing,you little dork."
"Yay!" "Huh?" I put my hands on his head and pull him close to me,his nose on mine.

"You're such a cutie!" "What?" I kiss his cheek and whisper in his ear,"Love you." His smile goes away and his loving eyes turn to lusting eyes.

He cups my face into his hands and forces his lips on mine,kissing me deeply. We lay back down on the bed and start to kiss more and more,letting the day pass slowly.
.............................................................
Napoleon
"What are you doing?" She says,as I lay beside her on the bed,stroking her hair gently.

I'm starting right at her eyes,falling in love with her more and more than ever.
The sheets are on top of us,and we're having a good time. All that we're doing now is relaxing to our hearts content...at least her souls content,if we're including souls.

I get on top of her,smiling at her beautiful self. She smiles back and touches my chest as I close in on her. She puts a finger on my lips and says,"Don't you dare..." "Don't try to tease me." I say back,making her put her finger off my lips.

But before she really pulls it away,I softly nibble on it,making her stare at me. Then,I bite into it,making her say,"Napoleon! Wha-" I let her finger out of my mouth,smirking at her reaction.

I make my eyes look cold and I keep my smirk on my face. I say these words slowly to her,"Never...ever...tease...me. Got it?" She nods her head then puts on a smirk herself and says,"You're sexy when you're smirking." I look at her and say,"Oh,really?"

I keep smirking as I get closer to her lips. She nods her head and I press my lips to hers,making our smirks go away.

Then,she pushes me back and laughs,pulling my head back to hers. "Yes,you are,chubby."
"Stop."
"No,chubby."
"Stop it."
"Never."
"Okay. That's it."
"Don't you-"

I tickle her stomach making her laugh and laugh until she cries out,"Stop! Stop! Okay! You're not chubby! I'm sorry!" I stop and smirk,giving her a "never do that again" face.

"But..."
"But?"
"But,you will be. Soon."
"How?"
"You're always chubby."
"I'm not now!"
"Chubby lion prince."
"No."
"Chubby."
"No."
"Lion."
"Nope."
"Prince."
"Princes are so fairy-tale...ish."
"Ish?"
"Ish. Fairy-tale ish."

She gets up and looks over at me,smiling beautifully. She goes over to the closet and shuts the door,leaving me here to wait.

After a few minutes,she comes out wearing this:

"Now,for taking care of Pluto and Jelhiro..."

We hear a sudden bang and she snaps her fingers,making new clothes form on me and the door bursting open.

The lights turn off and immediately we go down on the floor,going to a safer place to be. I go down underneath the bed,waiting for the sounds of guns to stop.

Sephrina
I roll over towards the couch,flipping it over to see an image flowing over me.

The lights go back on with Jelhiro putting a gun on my head and Pluto closer to Napoleon,making us freeze to where we are.

"Oh,have we caught you again?! Oh,how wonderful! I'm so glad!" He says,clapping his hands sarcastically. He holds a hand out towards the ceiling and all the lights turn to candles,making the room dim a little. "Still building things you shouldn't have built? Oh,of course. But now...oh now..." He slowly walks over towards the bed,making me nervous as he will probably find Napoleon and kill him right where I lay.

He lays on top of the bed,making me stop breathing so hard. "Well,your bed is like peas. Remember that fairy-tale,"The Princess and the Pea"? Oh,that is a very good story,yes. There was one little pea that only the girl felt,and it made the prince marry her. Oh,how happy endings always go right...but if I was the villain,if I was that pea,I would always win. You know why? Because you're not in it! Ha!"

He snaps his fingers and Jelhiro puts his gun on his back,securing it to the holster. He walks back towards the door and walks out,disappearing from us.

"Jelhiro is a good man,isn't he? Oh,of course he is!" He motions me to get up and I do,as he looks me up and down. "Hmm...nice clothing. Good thing I had you. You were great. So great! I loved it...but now you have to go."
"No,she doesn't!"

Napoleon gets out from under the bed,making Pluto get up from the bed and pull out a hand,bringing him back to him. He holds onto his neck and pulls his head back,making Napoleon look at him with a glare and say,"Hi,Pluto." Pluto rolls his eyes and throws him on the floor,making Napoleon run back towards me.

"Now,it's the two people I hate so much. But one,I would..." He bites his lip,making Napoleon put a hand on my eyes,letting me not see anything. I love him so much,though.

"Oh...it's okay for her to see it,Bonaparte."
"No,it isn't,Pluto."
"Oh...yes,of course. Jelhiro!"

As Jelhiro comes over,I stomp my foot on the couch and it breaks,making one of the wooden legs go into my hand. I push Napoleon's hand out of the way and throw the wooden leg at the hallway,making Jelhiro get hit with it.

I jump over towards Pluto and kick him with my heel,making his knees go to the floor. I pull his head back and grab his gun from his hand,aiming it at his head.

"Oh,good girl. You learned a lot from your father. I guess he was just showing you how bad it is to be with a man...like him." He nods his head over towards Napoleon.making Napoleon put his hands in fists,getting angry at him.

I hear a gun go towards my head,and Pluto laughing as he sees Jelhiro smile grimly and nodding his head towards him.

"Forgot about my friend,dear? Oh...you stupid idiot. I let your friends have time to get out as soon as they can,but somehow you're the only one that really doesn't care about your mansion. So,I'm going to have to blow it up. You see,there's bombs hidden everywhere underneath this house and it's only a matter of time before it blows and your precious fiancé dies."

I nod my head towards Napoleon and he nods back,looking over at Jelhiro. Jelhiro points his gun at Napoleon,but Napoleon ducks and the gun runs out of its bullets.

I take away the gun and smack Jelhiro with it,making him fall to the floor. I kick Pluto to the floor and throw the gun over towards Napoleon who immediately takes the shells out and puts in new ones,running over towards Jelhiro and pulling him out of the room.

I use my powers to electrocute Pluto and see if he's unconscious. After that,I go over towards the window after I hear a loud ticking noise. I grab Napoleon's hand and together we jump out of the window just in time to see the mansion blow up into pieces.

We fall safely to the ground and run over towards our friends,who immediately rush over to us and hug us,making us hug them too.

We see Pluto appear after I make a portal and instead of us going into the portal,he uses his powers to make the sky fall down and we fall down with it.

"محاولة والحصول على هذه المرة، الخاسر. دعونا نرى كيف يمكنك البقاء على قيد الحياة هذا البعد."
(Translated to:Try and get me this time,loser. Let's see how you survive this dimension.) That's all I hear as we go into another place. Let's hope this place is better than this one...
