CHAOS FINALE
Episode Two: The Satellites of Jupiter; Answering the Call of Light

        Story Settings; a young man by the name of Lupinus Dianthe heads to the luminous planet known as Jupiter, an oasis of earth and nature combined in brilliance, he seeks out the others he knows will answer to the call of the silver light.
        And elsewhere, a young woman has grasped a pen and given the gift of awakening. In the remembrance of her mother and those final moments, Heloise Etoile could no longer pretend that she wasn´t ever involved in the war ravaging the Sol System.
        And just as close by, another woman existed in pure panic and dread. The call was strong but could Liv Tavor be even stronger? Filled with regret and loss, she keeps her powers divided in her heart, shredded by the incidents stemming from her long-ago past.
        And guiding the two girls is a feline by the name of Carmen, a chosen advisor though not without fault. Born into a feral land and forgotten by all, she now lives to better herself and give herself a better purpose than living in the filth she´s used to.

Opening
        Jupiter floats in the stars, one of the largest beacons of power. Filled with plenty to hide in, large cities float in the skies while the wild foliage consumes below. But despite the large circumference of the planet, there is little life here for the world can be more trouble than it´s revealed.

        Lupinus Dianthe was a tall man with clean olive skin. With light jade green eyes that sparkled lightly and milk chocolate hair in soft curls around his scalp and head, pulled back loosely to a neck length ponytail, he was a serious figure. Especially when it came to his remarkably big family.
        "LUPIN!" A figure came out of the three-story home, layered across a long width of cultivated land. The girl was darker than him, having tanned in the strong rays of the sun while in her garden. She had dark blond hair, pulled back into a low-riding overstuffed bun. She had a middle part but no bangs, her hair pulled over the tops of her ears. Her dark eyes, a navy blue, shone as she grasped onto her older brother.
        "Rosa!" He attempted to raise her in the air but there was a creak of protest from his back as he winced. "Whew! You´ve been eating a lot?"
        She pushed his hands off the instant her feet touched ground. "How dare you!"
        "Oh my, it must be the blossoming flower!" He teased.
        She turned red and covered her chest. "Shut up!"
        "I´m away for a few months and boom, mountains!"
        "MAAAMMMAAA!" The wail echoed in the air as an older woman, of which Rose looked like a clone to, appeared.
        "Lupinus!" Anemone beamed with happiness. "My baby boy!" She engulfed her eldest in a bear hug.
        "Mom.." Lupinus gasped. "Can´t.. breathe..."
        "Squeeze harder, Mama!" Rose laughed at the hilarious look on her brother´s face.
        "Oh, you should´ve called," Anemone smiled. "We have company!"
        "Really?" He followed the lady folk into the home before stilling.
        His cousins, from his father´s side, sat side by side. Lavandula Dianthe was a prim looking thing, a young girl of ten. Her light brown hair fell down in slow waves, pulled up at the sides in pink ribbon tails to hold thin, wavy pigtails. Her bangs were uneven, a long strand down the middle of her face and other strands pushed lazily to the other sides of her head. Her hair ended at the nape of her neck.
        Her dark brown eyes narrowed slightly at the look of her cousin before the nose, ever so slightly, went higher in the air.
        He wondered if this was all a sick joke for his expense. Lupinus turned toward his older cousin. Tulipa Dianthe had green eyes that matched the green of her hair. Her hair was tussled and thick, brushed up and to the right side heavily. She wasn´t as pale Caucasian as her sister, having a more healthier color of peach. She was well built, graceful, and underneath the girl exterior was a heart of a tomboy.
        "Lupinus," Tulipa offered both hands as she hugged him. "How goes it all?"
        "Yes, tell us," Lavandula said coolly, after her sister glared at her to say something.
        "Actually, I have something to discuss with Tulipa at the moment. Why don´t you play with Rosa?" Lupinus asked warmly.
        Rosa was in the background, making gagging noises.
        "ROSA DIANTHE!" Her mother roared.
        Rosa turned a shade of red before weakly following her cousin.
        "Stuck up."
        "Country bumpkin."
        Anemone sighed tiredly.
        "I´m sorry about her, really. I don´t understand where this behavior is coming from," Tulipa apologized to her aunt.
        "It´s all right," Anemone waved the two off. "I´m going to finish making supper. I´ll ring the bell when I´m done."
        Tulipa followed Lupinus with a serious face. He looked hesitant before wiping his face with a hand tiredly.
        "Tulip, have you ever thought that maybe there´s something out there?" He asked as the two perched on the back porch. Both had their gazes upward toward the distant sun.
        "This must be important. You weren´t scheduled for leave until next month," Tulipa said quietly.
        He glanced at her. "Keeping track of family?"
        "I don´t want to be surprised again." Came the flat reply.
        "I... well, this is going to sound, well, like bad news really.." he stuttered before coming to a stop.
        "If it helps, yes, there is something out there in the universe. Something really bad," Tulipa said dryly.
        "What about something good?"
        She pondered for a moment. "I would say...I wouldn´t be able to answer that honestly. I want to believe but look at us. Humanity race is dwindling because of the evil. We haven´t seen anyone stand up and still be standing after doing so."
        "But what if help was to return?" Lupinus wouldn´t look at her.
        "As in the so-called legend?"
        "Not as so-called as you think," He said carefully. "Have you seen any silver light recently?"
        She blinked. "How´d you hear about that? It was this morning, just after the sunrise and everything seemed to light up in silver for a few moments. It felt... like.."
        She thought on how to word it. "A summoning, like I was being called."
        "And that´s exactly what it was," Lupinus turned toward her fully. "We are senshi, Tulipa."
        "That´s great news. Tell me, where am I being buried?"

        "I don´t wanna play with you," Lavandula muttered lowly.
        "I can´t hear you but I know it can´t be anything nice. Listen, if you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all, okay?" Rosa pointed out.
        "I´ll say whatever I wanna say."
        "I wish you wouldn´t," Rosa muttered darkly.
        "So what were you so upset about this morning?" Lavandula demanded. "You got freaked."
        "None of your business."
        "You got scared of light?"
        Rosa blinked. "You saw it?"
        "Course I did! I asked your mamma ‘bout it but she didn´t see it. I know you did though, from your reaction."
        "I think it´s something important," Rosa mused.
        "But what can we do about it?" Lavandula shrugged. "None of my concern at the moment."
        "Stop being so mean," Rosa lowered her voice. "I think it´s about the war and IT."
        Lavandula looked momentarily frightened. "About... IT?"
        "Yea but you´re right, what can we do?" Rosa finished sadly. "Don´t want to lose anymore."
        "Me neither." Both girls looked sad.
        "But what if we could do something?" Rosa asked hesitantly.
        "I´d do it!" Lavandula spoke confidently. "I want to be happy and know I have something left!"
        "Yea!"
        "Let´s go tell Lupinus and Tulipa that we saw the light," Rosa pointed out. "I think we can help them."
        They found them arguing. "I´m not putting my life on the line like that. No one wins!" Tulipa shouted.
        "You cannot ignore it or you´ll be out first!" Lupinus shouted back.
         Their voices raised higher and higher, the younger ones watched before Rosa opened her mouth.
        "ENOUGH!" She shouted. "We are family! We stand together, no matter what!"
        "Yea! Even if Rosa gets too dirty sometimes."
        "Work with me here!"
        "We are family," Lavandula spoke.
        "Thank you," Rosa turned toward them. "We both saw the silver light."
        The two elders´ eyes popped out.
        "We want to fight."
        "Um.. while I agree with all of this, why are you speaking for me?"
        "Lavender, shut up!"
        "No!" Tulipa began.
        "Not your decision," Lupinus butted in.
        "Well, yelling at them won´t stop them," Lavandula spoke angrily. "Any bright ideas?"
        "I´ve got nothing," Rosa scratched her nose as the two cousins yelled more.
        A shadow flitted over the sun´s rays, casting a dark shadow as the two younger looked back toward the house simultaneously.
        "MAMA!" Rosa shouted in panic. She tore off toward the house, following at her heels Lavandula.
        "WAIT!" Lupinus shouted uselessly. Tulipa´s voice echoed with his own shout.
        "Mama! Don´t hurt my mama!"
        "Don´t hurt my aunt!"
        The two girls found themselves freezing in a momentary stop of time as two pens simultaneously fell into a hand.
        "Callisto Power, Make Up!" Rosa shouted. The pen shone with energy as it wrapped around her to form into her fuku. The tiara was bright yellow, an oval gem of green glimmering. She wore pink rose earring studs upon her earlobes. Her bodice was a full-figure, with her collar a dark blue and a single green stripe. Her choker was dark blue. She wore a single green transparent sleeve, the bottom edged in dark blue. Her brooch was a eight-pointed star of dark blue, in yellow rimmed metal. Upon the inside, etched in the center was the sign of Jupiter. From her brooch was a short dark blue tie, the bottom edged in green. Her gloves were white and wrist length, the edge in dark blue. Her waistband wrapped around her hips, divided into two colors, the upper dark blue, the  bottom green. Additional dark blue stripes rose over once on her hips, creating a v to the center of the waistband. At the center of the waistband was a five pointed yellow star, that had two fabric tails of dark blue, the bottoms edged in green. Her skirt was single layered and dark blue with a green trim. Her back bow was dark blue with ankle length ribbon tails. Her boots covered up to her halfway up her calves, the tip pointing to the inner of her leg while an additional strap went from the tip to around the leg.
        "Io Power, Make Up!" Lavandula followed suit. The earth underneath her shook as vines wrapped around her to turn to sparkles as her fuku appeared. The tiara was bright yellow, an oval gem of green glimmering in its center. She wore pink rose earring studs upon her earlobes. Her bodice was a full-figure, with her collar a dark pink and a single green stripe. Her choker was dark pink. She wore a single green transparent sleeve, the bottom edged in dark pink. Her brooch was a eight-pointed star of dark pink, in yellow rimmed metal. Upon the inside, etched in the center was the sign of Jupiter. From her brooch was a short dark pink tie, the bottom edged in green. Her gloves were white and wrist length, the edge in dark pink. Her waistband wrapped around her hips, divided into two colors, the upper dark pink, the  bottom green. Additional dark pink stripes rose over once on her hips, creating a v to the center of the waistband. At the center of the waistband was a five pointed yellow star, that had two fabric tails of dark pink, the bottoms edged in green. Her skirt was single layered and dark pink with a green trim. Her back bow was dark pink with ankle length ribbon tails. Her boots were dark pink with a green stripe along the outsides of her legs. They went nearly to her knees. There was a dark pink rose at the slight v on the far outside of the boot´s top edge.
        "Hurry!" Tulipa shrieked. "Stop them from doing anything!"
        "Like Hell I will!" He nosedived, catching her ankles. "They knew what to do, they accepted! Do the same!"
        "Stop forcing me!"
        "I´m NOT!" He winced as she kicked at his shoulder. "ROSA! LAVANDULA!"
        "I can´t let them fight alone!" She fell down on her knees. "They´re children! Their future! I won´t lose anymore!"
        The pen formed in her gripped fist. "Europa Power, Make Up!" Transparent energy built around her to form into a unbreakable shield that shattered to show her in her fuku. The tiara was bright yellow, an oval gem of green glimmering in its center. She wore pink rose earring studs upon her earlobes. Her bodice was a full-figure, with her collar gray and a single green stripe. Her choker was gray. She wore a single green transparent sleeve, the bottom edged in gray. Her brooch was a eight-pointed star of gray, in yellow rimmed metal. Upon the inside, etched in the center was the sign of Jupiter. From her brooch was a short gray tie, the bottom edged in green. Her gloves were white and wrist length, the edge in gray. Her waistband wrapped around her hips, divided into two colors, the upper gray, the  bottom green. Additional gray stripes rose over once on her hips, creating a v to the center of the waistband. At the center of the waistband was a five pointed yellow star, that had two fabric tails of gray, the bottoms edged in green. Her skirt was single layered and gray with a green trim. Her back bow was gray with ankle length ribbon tails. Her Mary Jane styled, flat heeled shoes were gray with a crisscross across the top of her foot, a pink rose at its center.
        "Ganymede Power, Make Up!" He called out weakly, staggering to his feet. His clothes ripped at the seams to weave around to form his own uniform. He wore a sleeveless, turtle-neck tunic seamlessly bound in the front by a line of pale jade green, edging the bottom edge of the green tunic that ended just below his hips. He wore a loosely attached light jade green scarf around his shoulders, clasped by a yellow lightning ornament. He wore a tight fitting light jade green bodysuit, that loosened at the knees before disappearing in the knee high green boots. From his knee down to his ankles, he wore silver metal protectors. Wrapping around his arms were thorny vines. Tight-fitting green goggles hide some of his physical features but his jade green eyes peered out clearly.
        "Europa Star Shield!" She crooked her arm as a five pointed star formed and began to spin wildly, growing larger as she lunged in the front of the two younger girls. The strange creature moved forward on its front limbs, much like a gorilla, baring battered and darkened gums as a forked tongue slithered out. It hissed darkly and moved to attack.
        "Ganymede Downpour Sweep!" A stylized cup formed in Ganymede´s hands as he sloshed water that struck with incredible force.
        Europa moved for an attack but nothing came to mind. "Ganymede... Lupin!"
        "We got it!" Sailor Io aimed. "Io Stinging Grapple!" She wove her hand in the air as a vine formed and she threw it, capturing the creature. She pulled hard and something dripped out of the vine whip to disappear in the creature.
        "What the.." Europa stared in surprise.
        "Poison," Io offered.
        "Ouch."
        "My turn!" Callisto wasn´t to be outdone. "Callisto´s Energy Barrel!" She aimed with her right hand, bullet-shaped energy balls shooting out in rapid succession.
        One of them must have hit something vital, as it turned to dust.
        "Why couldn´t I finish it off!?" Tulipa fumed, glaring as Lupinus reverted back to civilian.
        "Don´t know," he shrugged before looking away.
        "Mama.." Tulipa heard Rosa began. Anemone had been hiding inside the home. She came out slowly, her face ashen.
        Anemone covered her mouth, her eyes filling with tears. "Oh.. no.."
        Lupinus opened his mouth but with no words to say, he closed it as he sighed.
        "Guess we can´t stay here," Lavandula said finally.
        "You must... must be sure to keep safe," Anemone began weakly. She fumbled with her daughter´s hair. "And.. and.. stand together, all right? Do not lose sight of each other. If I lose another.. my heart will.. break.." She broke into heart wrenching sobs.
        "Mama.." Rosa sniffled.
        "I´m sorry, Mom," Lupinus hesitantly touched a shoulder. "But... it´ll be better this time, I swear."
        She looked up at her eldest, a sad smile on her face. "But you´re all so young.." her eyes closed. "But if we must fight. I will be here waiting for you all to return home, is that clear?" Her fingers grasped her son´s hand. "Promise me."
        "We promise."
