Within a void of emptiness, "Where am I?" Owen finds himself waking up within the void. Standing up and looking around, he was genuinely and completely confused. "Am I-"

"No." Enter Uso. "You're not dead." He tells Owen

"You're in your subconscious." Enter Osu. "We never thought you'd have that much potential within you, Owen." Osu remarks. "You have made Uso and myself very proud. You proved to us that you didn't need our help or access to our potential in hopes of combining it with your own." One thing Owen remarked was how differently and yet similar Osu and Uso looked. Both were from different times and from different bloodlines. Yet their strength and adversaries were the few out of many things they had in common.

"Uso...Osu...How did you encounter such vile people?" Owen asked his past lives. "What made you attracted to them?"

"Blackfire...Or Princess Komand'r was the daughter of the King of Tamaran." Uso explains the past of Blackfire as well as his own. "I dunno what made her so interested in me. I wasn't a prince, nor did I come from royal blood or royalty in general. I was a soldier, a soldier of a race of people that adored combat and philosophy. When I wasn't traveling to other planets in my spare-time, I fought on behalf of the Sengokuan people. As well as those who were in danger that created a treaty with the Sengokuans. There was one threat that The Army of Tamaran and myself along with my allies had to destroy on behalf of the lunarians. Queen beryl was her name. And she was a witch that came from earth. After she was defeated, I spent my time on Tamaran before spending my time within the Moon Kingdom. My bond with Princess Serenity was born and my love for her was not as strong as her love was for me. However...Blackfire and I shared a bond too. But I saw our bond as a sibling bond. I had no idea that Blackfire wanted my hand in mine. And when I did, it was after the fall of the Moon Kingdom and other planets with their lifeforms. Including my own planet. Planet Sengoku."

"For me," Osu says, "It was when I met Kikyo for the first time. Her discovering that my heart was knit to Kinuyasha's and not hers drove her into madness. And when Kinuyasha tried to steal the Shikon No Tama...Kikyo used this act of theviery to destroy the bond I built with Kinuyasha."

"...." Owen was speechless. "So it was the bonds you made with the opposite women...that drove the women that wanted to build a foundation with you into madness...Still...I can't feel sorry for them. Not after what they did to Kinuyasha. And now that the Jewel is no more...I can never bring her back. I'll never see her again."

"You failed to save Kinuyasha." Osu tells Owen. "But you saved Naruko and Sasuko."

"You did." Uso nods. "That was a feat I failed to do on my own. You saved your brothers. You handled the reincarnations of Blackfire and Frieza with your OWN might. But..." Uso continues. "What befell Osu and myself, it will befall on you too."

"...Naruko and Sasuko?" Owen asked

"They're the descendants of Serenity and Neo Mars." Uso explains. "However, they don't know that. They, like you, have their own identity. Which is what is going to make one of them go from your greatest ally, to your worst enemy."

"...So...What do I do when that happens? Do I just...Let them die? Be erased from out of my life?" Owen trembles.

"Fate can be very cruel." Uso tells Owen. "But...It can give you the time to prepare yourself if you believe you have the potential to bring either Naruko or Sasuko back to their senses should they go down the path of the rogue and the selfish."

"Then that's what I'll do then." Owen tells Uso and Osu. "I'll prepare myself for whatever happens. That way...When the moment comes, I'll have the potential to bring them back to their senses."
