               With their hands joined together, the Zodiacs launched themselves into the sky, in order to go to the next planet to find the seventh planet. Observing them, Fayetta has put her hands on her hips as she brushed her hair, "Well, well, well. They went to their next destination, right? Which planet they are going?" She asked her question.

Later on, the Zodiacs are on their way to the seventh planet in order to find the seventh pearl. They flew as they looked around before seeing a planet in the shape of the Aries symbol. The planet turned out to be the Arietis Planet, home of the ram-people. They landed and found themselves in a grassy land on the planet as they started to walk, in order to look for the Libra pearl.

"Are you sure this is the Arietis Planet, Harold?" Marc asked.

"Exactly, Marc. We gotta find something related to Arietis," Harold replied.

"Like what? A monument who is completely similar?" Betty asked.

"A monument? A monument! Betty, you're a genius! We can find a monument!"

"How are we going to find a monument?" Mitchell asked.

"We can go to the monument and get the Libra pearl!" Harold continued, "I wonder who the guardian might be..."

"I know who might be! The guardian is a ram-person who protects the Libra pearl from intruders and hates anyone who comes closer to it! I'm afraid that he would kill us," said Julian.

"The guy is like Mr. Neale!" said Garret.

"Guys! If the Guardian is possessed or something, I don't think that Fayetta did it to him," Ruby remarked.

"Let's get that pearl and away we go-go-go!" said Heather.

After agreeing with each other, the Zodiacs started to look for the Libra pearl in the monument of the Arietis Planet. They went into a village where the ram-people live and saw some buildings. They kept going until they stopped to look for directions. When they went to the left, they discovered a tunnel and went inside. They looked around at the surroundings and looked surprised until they saw a dead end. With no other choice, Harold removed a boulder with Horacio and threw it away before taking a good look, only to notice the exit. Deciding to use a shortcut, the Zodiacs went to the right, where they crossed a bridge with dangerous spikes below. After crossing the bridge, they opened a door where they arrived at the other side of the dead end. Satisfied, they all went to the exit and looked around before seeing that no one is here as they started to walk.


"We're about to make it to the monument, everyone," said Harold.

"Are you sure that the monument is somewhere?" said Julian.

"Absolutely, Julian," said Ruby.

"In my whole life, you never had good luck, did you?" said Ambrose.

"Ambrose, I'm unlucky. People laugh at me for my misfortunes."

"This sign says: CVN monument, located in the Arietis Plains," Harold continued as he explained to his friends, "It's CVN Monument, guys!"

"Cool! Let's go, people!" said Heather, "The pearl is in the CVN Monument!"

They started to run towards the Arietis Plains. When they get in there, they encountered the CVN Monument, the monument where the Libra pearl was held. They looked up as they looked pretty awestruck.

"We found the Libra pearl!"

"Ha ha! Awesome! Let's grab it before someone sees us!" said Betty.

"Can I try?" said Gertie.

"OK, Gertie, Let me try," Brett stretched his hands and threw his sister into the air, allowing her to grab the pearl before landing, "Yes!"

"I got it!" Gertie exclaimed before the guardian of the monument, who is a ram-person, appeared in front of her and her friends.

"Stay away from that pearl!" He shouted angrily.

"What?! What are you...Are you the guardian of the monument?" said Harold.

"Yes, I am the guardian of the monument. And you are the bandits who are trying to steal the pearl from me!" The guardian pointed his finger at them.

"No! We're using it for our friend Marc! We're not intruders!" said Heather.

"I don't think so, granola girl. Now gimme it to me!"

"NO!" The Zodiacs shouted at him.

Shocked that the group refused to give back the pearl, the guardian let out a furious roar and started to chase them, intending to snatch the Libra pearl from them.

"He doesn't look friendly!" said Mitchell.

"I wish I never saw a grumpy neighbor!!" Ruby shouted.

"Go! Go! Up on that hill!" Harold shouted.

The Zodiacs ran on a hill in order to escape from the guardian's fury, when they arrived, the guardian tried to go up. But, the Zodiacs were no match for him.

"OK! OK! You won! Stay with the Libra pearl!" He said as the guardian started to walk away, "Those guys are the...I don't know."

"Hey, buddy! We're the mystic astro-zodiacs!" said Heather.

"The mystic astro-zodiacs? The Mystic wizards? Well, right. The granola girl is right, they're not intruders."

With a sigh of relief, the Zodiacs chuckled as they gave each other a fist bump, "Looks like our neighborhood bully abandoned the pursuit!" said Harold as he gave the pearl to Marc, "Here."

"Thanks, pal!" Marc looked impressed as he imagined himself as a Astro-Zodiac Wizard, complete with a light blue wizard's gown and hat with the Libra symbol on the brim, carrying a magical staff with his Zodiac sign, "Pretty great!"

"Time to be more Zodiac, baby!" Heather cheered.

"That's right!" said Ruby, "I want the Scorpio pearl in Leonis Planet. A planet where the lions live! I watched a movie about a white lion once! And I watched, watched, watched, watched million times! I'm gonna tell you: Are we going to Leonis?!"
