Chapter II  Abnormal Transformation
 
The Pope of Sanctuary is the leader of all the 
Saints. In every generation, the Pope will choose a successor 
from the 12 Golden Saints. A Saint who is benevolent, intellgent, and brave. Before the start of the Holy War, this succession ceremony 
is performed.
 
 The so called Holy War means, since when the God of the 
Sea, the ruler of Alantis, Poseidon has tried to take over the earth, and has found the 'Gods Will' and created the power struggle.
 
 When evil is upon this earth, Athena will be born. Before 
the fighting starts, The Pope will give an order out to all the Saints
in the world to return to Sanctuary.
 
 The Holy Wars occur in every 230 to 250 years. The 
last Holy War was 229 years ago At that time, 79 Saints was 
there to fight. It had the most number of Saints to participate in 
a war ever . Only a few survived, it was a heated war.
 
One of them was Shiryu's master, who is right 
now living in Rozan Five Peaks, Libra Golden Saint - 
Roshi(Dohko), and one more person, it is the now Pope.
 
 "Ah, Shura, you finally come back." The Pope says welcomely. 
 Sitting on the throne, the Pope's aged face and body has been hidden  
 by a mask and his robe.   
 "Greetings" Shura kneeling, saying this respectfully. 
 "Tonight, take a good night's rest" 
 "Yes! Thank you for your concern" 
 "Shura, you have probably become very strong?" says Ares standing 
 behind the throne who is The Pope's brother. 
 "Ares...that is because of you...." Ares is to aid the old and diseased   
 Pope. He takes part in the jobs for the Pope. Ares is a Silver Saint.  
 He cannot become the next Pope but his loyal personality has the  
 trust of all the Saints. He gets respect and  support. "Now, the 
 Golden Saint for the Capricorn Temple is back too" 
 "Ares, tomorrow give the mission to Shura" says the Pope while  
 slowly standing up. 
 "Yes! Shura, you can leave now. Take some rest." Ares follows  
 The Pope. 
 "Thank you for your concern" While Shura is about to leave, from  
 behind Shura feels a very powerful and challenging cosmos. His  
 whole body gets nervous and tenses up. (Wha, What, that cosmos?) 
 The Pope says "Saga!?" 
 

The Mysterious Golden Saint Saga 

 
The Mysterious Golden Saint Saga
 
 "Ah!!" Shura turns his head and sees. 
 The Gemini Golden Saint Saga slowing walking foward bringing a  
 cold grin. 
 "Greetings... Gemini Golden Saint Saga, comes here respecufully to 
  salute The Pope" Saga does the proper etiquette. 
 Shura is in deep thought. He decides to determine if that strange  
 cosmos came from Saga. But Shura only feels a benevolent and a  
 powerful cosmos which any Golden Saint would have. (Strange...  
 who's cosmos was it?! Maybe an invader has entered Sanctuary.....) 
 "You are?" 
 Shura answers, "Capricorn Golden Saint Shura" 
 "Oh.... it's you...." 
 "Just a moment ago, I felt a very large and challenging cosmos, did 
  you?" 
 "Ah... I did not...." 
 "Really" 
 The two Saints stare at each other, eye to eye and creates some  
 little fireworks. (Wha, What, In Saga's eyes, there is some weird  
 light) The two still staring at each other.  
 The Pope finally breaks this up, "Saga, how is Poseidon's situation?" 
 "There has been not much activity yet" 
 "Saga, watching Poseidon is very important. You must not be  
 careless. The last Holy War was 229 years ago, the day Athena  
 arrives is near." 
 "Yes!" 
 "Saga, tonight stay in Sanctuary and rest" 
 "Thank You" 
 Shura still staring at Saga who performs the correct etiquette,  
 thinking..... (Saga, a man that must be careful with....)
