Saint Seiya- Knights of the Zodiac

Chapter 4- Pegasus Seiya vs Dragon Shiryu

April's POV

I already finish eating a piece of bread that I stole at the bakery area. I notice that the next battle is about to start soon. I look at the time on my phone and it is 2:49 pm, so I got up and walk the hallway to the arena to watch. My phone battery is about 67% and I didn't have my charger, so I put it in airplane mode to save some battery. "Today, the match will begin, but first will be Seiya of Pegasus vs Shiryu of Dragon," announcer said. I saw Seiya on the left corner of the arena stage and Shiryu on the right side of the arena stage.

Shiryu's cloth is green and his helmet looks like a dragon. His shield on his left arm is circle with lines trace like a smaller circle and a star. His hair is dark black color and his hair is the same length as Saori's hair. His eyes are almost the same color as the cloth. He is wearing a light purple shirt and pants.

Seiya's POV

*bell ring* I jump up and did the spinning kick as Shiryu opens his eyes. He did a roll to dodge my attack. I turn around and charge right after him with my fist to punch him. He acutely dodge my fist and he use his fist to punch me on the chin. I jump up high and try to kick him on the face again. He use his shield to block my kick and I jump and landed on my feet.

Shiryu began to charge right after me and punch my stomach really hard. I spit out some blood out of my mouth and fell to the ground. The crowds gasp about the punch that Shiryu did. I get up slowly because the punch was very painful, but I fell back down onto the floor again. The crowds cheer and chat about Shiryu. "This Greek colossal is pack today for over 100,000 people are watching the Galactic War. The death match amount 10 Saints for the golden armor, Shiryu is trying to beat Seiya very easily with his mighty punch," the announcer said.

April's POV

"Wow, that's gotta hurt for sure," I talk to myself. "Shiryu!!," the girl who call his name that is on the other side of the hallway. She is wearing a dark pink Asian sleeve shirt, pants, and flats. Her long, dark navy green hair braided down to her right shoulder and her eyes are dark blue. "Shunrei," Shiryu eyes widen a little,"Shunrei, why are you here?" Shunrei ran up to him and he ran up to her. "Shunrei, tell me, what's wrong?," Shiryu ask her.

Shiryu's POV

I ran up to her and ask,"Shunrei, tell me, what's wrong?" She nodded and said,"Its your old master." "No, don't tell he's...," I hesitate a little bit.

Flashback....

I'm at the waterfall, trying to master my Rising Dragon. "You still cannot do it?," the old man ask. The old man is very short, purple skin with white beard, mustache, and eyebrows. He is wearing a dark green Asian clothes and as straw hat. "No...I...I cannot," I hesitate. "How long have you been here at the Five Ancient Peaks?," he ask. "It will be soon 5 years," I answer. "Long enough," he said,"for a baby bird learn to fly." "But," I began as I turn around,"but I can't do it!!"

"No?" "No, I can't!!," I repeated again,"nobody can reverse the direction of the water flows. Its against the law of nature!! It's totally impossible!! Only a God can do it!!" "Hmph," old man closes his eye,"and who told you that has to be the rule that water should always run from high places to the low parts?Besides, the Yanks River flows the other way. Does it matter or not?" "Yes, but sir-," I began. "Shut up Shiryu, you said only God can do it. But aren't Saints suppose to be the strongest Gods?!"

I gasp about the words that my master said to me. I also felt kinda stupid that I didn't know that Saints are the strongest one than Gods. "The man who learns the truth of the universe in the last 5 years, you should able to do it," the old man said,"TRY IT!! Reverse the flow!!" I turn around to the waterfall and start punching upward and kicking it. "That's it Shiryu, now let's go make it up to the heavens!!" I jump and kick it, but I fell down and try it again.
