Tema, was now in the world of the Celestia's past. He had arrived at a point of time, where Zodiac was still good. To avoid any damage, Tema was in hiding but following Zodiac. Tema had remained in hiding at the forest which overlooked the road from Radiant light to the Academy.  He watched the world go by as the sky  rolled over him with the shadows slowly growing longer as the sky turned from a bright blue to a dim orange.

Tema watched many a variety of people walking up and down the road as he anxiously waited for his likeness to return "Why am I here anyway? I mean sure I'm at the point when he acquires the 3rd unity  but what good will it do. I mean what did he say. He lost his love...maybe I'll learn how Zodiac became...well...Zodiac. Oh speak of the devil here he is" he saw Zodiac walking down looking rather happy with himself.


Tema carefully followed Zodiac without being seen. Then at the gate of the town came out the small Sakura "Father your home" she darted over to him to which Zodiac picked her up and put her on his shoulders

"Hi there Sakura have you been a good girl?" said Zodiac

"yes Father. Come on Mother is waiting for you"  Zodiac walked back to Sophia's house with everyone waving hello to him as he walked along while Tema carefully followed behind. Tema managed to reach Sophia's house but had to squat and hide at the back.



Time moved on for Tema as the day turned to night, he could hear cutlery being put on the table and then heard talking.

"Come Sakura it's time for bed" said Sophia

"Alright Goodnight"  he could hear footsteps going up but they curiously stopped at the top so Tema figured Sakura was listening into the conversation.

"Sophia. I'm going tonight"

"what do you mean?"

"I'm still looking for the unity's so I've decided to set off tonight"


There was a pause when Sophia spoke "but Why? You have no need. You're the strongest warrior in the world why do you still feel you have to do this?"

"because I need the power to help everyone. I still lack the power I need"

"We've gone over this why do you NEED this power?"  As Tema was listening he thought about how serious Zodiac sounded as he spoke

"I need it to protect you and Sakura. I'm meeting up with her tonight and then we travel the world" Sophia sounded strangely annoyed

"I'd wish you'd see sense. She not the kind of girl to trust"

"You just don't see her the way I do. Now I must be going"



Tema heard Zodiac's footsteps going towards the front door until he heard Sophia speak sternly "but what about Sakura aren't you even going to say goodbye to her?"

"You know how clingy she is to me. If I tell her I'm leaving for a world trip she won't let me leave. Now so long Sophia. When I return I'll have the power to save everyone" he heard the front door slam from his position from behind the house. As he about to leave he felt a blanket drop on his head. 


Tema looked up to see a rope of some kind coming down from the window "huh what the? A rope?" he looked up to see a small figure was slowly climbing down "little Sakura...ah gotta hide" Tema quickly bolted into a nearby bush and saw young Sakura quietly creeping after Zodiac "she must following Zodiac. I'd better follow, just in case" Tema too began pursuit
