Episode 16.

"A giant! The fierce attack of Docrates!"

Somewhere in the world, a bloody war is being fought, and Arles' (the Master of Sanctuary)
dark-Clothed minions glory in it. Sanctuary has become a training camp even more brutal than
Death Queen Island. In the arena, Shaina is fighting Marin and beating her into a pulp,
ostensively because Marin has not yet accepted the Master of Sanctuary's decision that Seiya
is a traitor. Another saint, a young man named Aioria, interrupts Shaina's beating of Marin,
telling her she's doing it out of spite over Seiya's defeat of her rather than bringing Marin into
line. At the Graude mansion, Saori and her Bronze Saints are discussing the loss of the Gold
Cloth, and Ikki's information that Evil now controls Sanctuary. A commotion outside interrupts
them, and the Saints erupt out of the room expecting an invasion to find Kiki "playing" with
Tatsumi. Everyone laughs and tension is relieved for a short time. Saori again consults with
Kiddo's spirit. The Saints have all gone to their rooms to relax (well, sorta relax; Hyoga is busy
doing push-ups), Seiya goes home to his rooms near the orphanage, and Saori has gone to her
control center. Several of Docrates' proteges go to the area of the landslide and 'dig up'
Docrates, who still lives. The next morning the Saints' rest is interrupted by the arrival of
Docrates, who demands the Sagittarius helmet. The Saints enarmor, and Shiryu sends Kiki
after Seiya. The three Saints are outclassed by Docrates' strength, power, and size but valiantly
fight on, while the mansion sustains a lot of damage. Her Saints defeated, Saori bravely faces
Docrates as Seiya arrives and the others recover. The arrival of a battalion of police interrupts
the battle. Docrates kidnaps Saori by the simple expedient of picking her bodily up and tells
them they'll exchange her later for the helmet.

Episode 13.

"Blaze up! A blow of friendship"

As the battle between Shiryu and his Black Saint doppleganger commences, it becomes rapidly
clear that while Mu was able to heal Shiryu, he has not been returned to complete health. He is
not at full strength and is considerably slower than his opponent. In some ways it's the mirror of
his earlier battle with Seiya, this time Shiryu is soon bleeding and bruised as Black Dragon gets
first blood several times over. Mu has warned Shiryu that further blood loss could be fatal, but
Shiryu battles valiantly on, as it becomes clear that his true goal is to hold Black Dragon until
Shun's rescue attempt is successful. Essentially self-centered, Black Dragon simply can't
understand why Shiryu would throw his life away to save his friends. Shiryu manages a
full-power blow with the last of his strength, and knocks Black Dragon into the mountain-side,
where a fall of rock covers him. Shiryu collapses in a pool of his own blood, fully expecting to
bleed to death, content knowing that Shun and Seiya should be safe. Then he sees Black
Dragon climb out of the rubble. Struggling to his feet, Shiryu can stand only by supporting
himself against the rock behind him. In despair because he knows Black Dragon will kill Shun
and Seiya next, Shiryu can't lift even a finger in his own defense as Black Dragon prepares to
deliver a killing blow. A blow that never comes, for instead Black Dragon strikes him in the
chest with a single finger, and as he withdraws the finger, all Shiryu's hurts are healed, and
Black Dragon himself collapses and dies. Somehow Shiryu's willingness to sacrifice himself for
his comrades has touched Black Dragon's inner core, and the dark Saint has saved Shiryu's life
at the cost of his own. Shiryu then goes over and helps pull Seiya and Shun back up the
mountainside. He then examines Seiya and knows what to do, he uses his fingers to punch
holes in Seiya where the Black Pegasus' deadly punches landed. This will allow the evil essence
imparted into Seiya to leak out, and Seiya's own natural strength will do the rest. Shiryu has
now finally paid Seiya back in full for saving his life. He and Shun pick up the pieces of the
Gold Cloth and go looking for the others. Instead, it is Ikki who finds them! Shun knocks
Shiryu out and faces his brother himself. He pleads that Ikki forget his current evil ways and
rejoin the Bronze Saints. He's powerful enough to win the Cloth without resorting to stealing it.
Ikki responds by attacking, but Seiya, now fully recovered, arrives to intervene. He then
proceeds to launch his own attack, only to trip over a rock. Ikki, amused, prepares to respond
with an attack of his own.



Episode 14.

"Defeated! The Illusion Demon Fist"

Ikki is about to attack Seiya when Hyoga arrives. Ikki is astounded, he thought he'd killed
Hyoga earlier. Shiryu has also awakened, and now Ikki must face four Bronze Saints. Shun
again pleads with his brother, to no effect, only Hyoga's interference prevents Ikki from
punching Shun out. Hyoga attacks, Ikki counterattacks with a psionic attack, but Cygnus turns
it back on him. Ikki imagines that his own Black Saints have turned on him, and are trying to
destroy him with his own power. Hyoga tells the entranced Ikki that turnabout is fair play, tries
to complete the job by punching out Ikki. Shun stops him, which gives Ikki time to recover and
attack Hyoga (Evidentally Ikki can't be driven much crazier than he already is). His blow is not
fatal; Hyoga's crucifix (given to him by his mother) deflects the power of his fist. Phoenix
launches his "Flaming Wing Takeoff" attack and knocks over the Bronze Saints like ten pins.
Only Seiya is on his feet afterward, due entirely to the fact the Gold Cloth has assembled itself
and protected Seiya behind its armor. They battle, and Seiya shatters the Phoenix Cloth, only
to see it reassemble itself in a burst of flame! As the fight continues, the other weapons respond
to Seiya's needs. Shiryu's shield appears on his arm to stop Ikki's punches, Shun's Nebula
Chains wrap around Ikki's arms and attack him, and Seiya throws an "Aurora Thunder
Attack". Even with the others unconscious, the Bronze Saints are fighting Ikki as a team. Ikki
finds himself outmatched, and collapses in Seiya's arms.



Episode 15.

"Now it's revealed! The enigma of Ikki"

Ikki recovers rather quickly and renews his attack. Seiya's "Pegasus Meteor Fist" punches him,
but Ikki's still conscious. A sudden flashback of how he got his Cloth comes unbidden, causing
him pain. His sensei (a large, muscular, scarred man who eternally wears a Japanese demon's
mask to conceal his true features) had beaten him to a pulp again, and the man's daughter,
Esmeralda, came to see him and patch his wounds. They gradually became good friends. One
day she took him outside to show him a field of flowers, proving that not everything on Death
Queen Island is brutal and bleak. His mentor interrupts them, and while he and the sensei do
battle, the man accidentally kills Esmeralda. The sensei reacts callously, as if she'd deserved
death for getting in the way. Ikki berserks and kills his sensei, using the Phoenix power for the
first time, and thus winning the Phoenix Cloth, with no real sense of accomplishment. The
woman he loved is dead and unable to share his triumph. He had to get the Gold Cloth at any
cost in order to revenge her memory... or so he told himself. He tells Seiya that everyone on
Death Queen Island has moved to Sanctuary, but before Seiya can react several of what Seiya
believes to be Ankoku Saints arrive. A new battle begins, and a still dazed Ikki falls into a
crevasse. Shun sees this and throws one of his chains to him. He blames himself for what has
happened to Ikki, for he should have gone to Death Queen Island rather than let his brother
take his place. Ikki seems to be regaining his own mind, and Shun brings him upward with a
single jerk on the Nebula Chains. Ikki is half-fainting and completes the process of freeing his
mind from Evil influence. The others are still fighting the enemy warriors. Then Docrates, a fire
elemental and equivalent to a Silver Saint, shows up. As they prepare to battle, Ikki warns
them that Docrates is not to be underestimated. Docrates tells Ikki he must rejoin their cause or
die a traitor. Ikki refuses and strikes back, succeeding in throwing Docrates off-balance. A
landslide results, and Ikki, collapsing, is buried under it. Seiya has to carry Shun away forcibly
or he would have ended up buried too in an attempt to save Ikki's life. The rest of the
Sagittarius Gold Cloth is buried as well, only the helmet remaining. The Bronze Saints leave a
cross with Ikki's name on it, hang Hyoga's crucifix from it, and mourn their fallen comrade.

Episode 12.

"Catch! Nebula Chain of friendship"

Ikki and Hyoga face each other in battle. Cygnus launches an "Aurora Thunder Attack" againstIkki, only to have it reversed and strike its sender. Shocked, and with his confidence shaken,Hyoga gets up and tries again. This time Ikki launches his "Phoenix Illusion Demon's Fist"attack, and Cygnus Hyoga sees his mother's body decaying in front of his eyes, skin and flesh
rotting away... Somehow, Hyoga shakes off the nightmare and counterattacks viciously. When he's finished, there's the Phoenix Cloth, but no Ikki, he teleported out of the way! Ikki punches Hyoga in the chest, making a hole in the Cygnus Cloth. Hyoga grabs Ikki's wrist and tries to freeze it, but collapses before he can succeed. Ikki leaves him for dead. With a smile, he picks
up the Gold Cloth pieces and goes on. Elsewhere, Shun hears Seiya's bell as Seiya tries to climb back up the mountainside, and further down the valley Kiki hears someone coming.Clearing away the fog, he is overjoyed to see Shiryu. Mu, Shiryu tells him, was able to save his life. Kiki gives him the bell, and Shiryu goes into battle with it. Shun discovers Seiya's discarded
armor and soon finds Seiya. He lassoes Seiya with his chains, but is attacked by Black Andromeda. Refusing to let Seiya go, he is rapidly loosing the battle when Seiya himself breaks the chain and falls back down the steep incline. We also get our first real demonstration of the telepathy shared between these Bronze Saints as Seiya "talks" to Shun and tells him the rescue of the Gold Cloth is more important than his life. Incensed, Shun attacks and kills his doppleganger. But Black Dragon is on the scene, and has been watching the battle with some amusement. Now he prepares to attack. Shiryu intervenes and tells Shun to go save Seiya while he takes care of the Black Dragon. Andromeda wraps one end of his chain around a convenient out-cropping and drops toward Seiya as Shiryu and Black Dragon begin their battle.

Episode 11.

"Life and death struggle! Terror of the Black Death fist"

The Bronze Saints are transported to the mountains in Central Asia where Ikki and his Dark Saints are to confront them. As they separate, Shun gives each of them a bell to wear as identification. Seiya then thinks he sees Shiryu, with the Pegasus Cloth on his back. As Seiya runs forward happily, Shiryu's form dissolves into a dragon and disappears. The Pegasus Cloth
leaps forth and encases its wearer. Seiya realizes the box is leaving, seemingly under its own power, and strikes, and an invisible Kiki becomes visible. He tells Seiya that Mu told Shiryu that it takes a Saint's blood to heal a Saint's Cloth. Remembering that Seiya saved his life, Shiryu cuts both his wrists and allows the blood to pour over the armor. Kiki is upset, but Mu restrains him. Shiryu slowly turns white as his blood pours forth, and Mu grabs him before he can fall. Mu then seals the cuts in Shiryu's wrists, while thinking that Shiryu has more than enough courage for a Saint. Mu tells Kiki to take the Pegasus Cloth to Seiya while he takes
care of Shiryu and the Dragon Cloth. Seiya is understandably upset; he's barely gotten to know this good friend. It is a high price to pay for the repair of the Cloth... and now he must make sure that Dragon's sacrifice is not in vain. Seiya gives the bell meant for Shiryu to Kiki, and leaves... to encounter Black Pegasus. He wins, but not before his doppleganger has delivered several blows of the "Black Pegasus Meteor Fist". Seiya picks up the three pieces of the Gold Cloth that are now 'his', and continues. He shortly finds himself thirsty, with a burning fever.
Pulling off his armor, he is horrified to see growing patches of black where Black Pegasus struck him. He falls off the ledge, knocking the pieces of Gold Cloth with him. Meanwhile, Hyoga. faces his counterpart and defeats him, enduring Black Cygnus's most powerful blasts as if they were the mildest summer breeze. Then Hyoga goes Ikki-hunting. He walks right past the area where Seiya has fallen, and never notices. He takes Ikki on all by himself, and the battle begins as the episode ends.

Episode 3.

"Cygnus! Warrior of the ice cold"

Seiya returns to the orphanage where he was raised and discovers that Miho has arranged rooms for him near by where he can live (And where the other orphans, who hero-worship Seiya, can visit!). Saori wonders where Phoenix and Cygnus are, but is primarily worried about Phoenix. In Siberia, Hyoga is visiting the ice-covered lake where his mother is "buried", where
she drowned in a sinking ship. Breaking the ice, he dives downward and places a rose in her hair. A pile of other roses around her shows this is far from his first visit. Surfacing, he is met by a young Eskimo boy who leads him to the glacier where the Cygnus Cloth is frozen. Calling upon his power of the "Aurora Thunder Attack", Hyoga breaks the glacier into pieces, and earns the Cloth. In Tokyo, the games are ready to begin again. Competing tonight: Cygnus
Hyoga, in his first match, against Hydra Ichi. Hyoga starts the match basically dodging Ichi's blows, content to let his opponent tire himself out and see how he moves. This results in his getting hit several times, until he counterattacks. He starts by half-freezing Ichi's arm, then
delivers a full-blown punch that shatters Hydra's Cloth. The game is over... next up will be Seiya and Dragon Shiryu.

Episode 4.

"Dragon! Unrivalled fist and shield"

It's Seiya's turn in the ring again. People nearly come to blows over tickets for the match. It should be the most exciting one yet, pitting Shiryu against Seiya. Seiya barely remembers the older boy from their days in the initial training camp at the Graude Foundation; Shiryu has
grown into a tall, splendidly muscled young man whose very aura of calm assurance is infuriating to his opponents. The two square off and the rain of fists starts immediately; no tentative sparring for these two! Shiryu lands the first punch, and Seiya falls. Just then Shunrei,Shiryu's foster sister, arrives with a message from home. It seems his sensei, Roshi, is ill. Shiryu remembers how he won his Cloth, his sensei instructing him to use his power to reverse the flow of a great waterfall. His Cloth was underwater, beneath the full force of the falling water.He succeeded, and he is determined to succeed in this endeavor, too. This distraction allows
Seiya time to recover, and the two face each other again. Shiryu demonstrates his "Rozan Ascending Dragon" as the other Saints look on in shock; but somehow, to Dragon's disbelief,Seiya gets up and reciprocates with the "Pegasus Meteor Fist". Shiryu blocks all the punches with his shield and it's Seiya's turn to be shocked. Shiryu strikes and his blow crumbles Seiya's arm piece! Dragon tells him he should quit while he's still able and his armor basically in one piece. Seiya refuses. They clash again, and Seiya goes down, but Shiryu's shield has been
shattered! Replay shows the Dragon hit and damaged it himself when he missed a blow at Seiya's head, as Seiya dropped to the ground in a faint (He'd run into the same shield face first...). Shiryu refuses to take advantage of Seiya's faint to destroy his opponent or the Pegasus Cloth, and again allows his opponent the time to recover. Despite their enforced rivalry, the
two are coming not only to respect but like each other. Because Seiya is obviously hurt, Shiryu does what he sees asthe honorable thing dispenses with his armor, sending it flying. Seiya,not to be outdone, follows suit. Shun objects; without their armor their blows may well prove
lethal. Shiryu and Seiya ignore his protests. They'll be fighting without the protection of theirarmor despite the danger.

Episode 5.

"Miracle of rebirth! Friendship of the Cosmos"

The battle between Seiya and Shiryu continues. Both now do their best to evade each other's
blows rather than block; and demonstrate both are very agile! Seiya attacks with his "Pegasus
Meteor Fist". Shiryu dodges most of them... but one gets through, and for the first time Shiryu's
blood is seen. They clash again, Shiryu jumping over Seiya's head to avoid another "Pegasus
Meteor Fist". He collapses upon landing. Remembering his sensei's warning of his weak spot, a
pressure point just above his heart, and to keep his guard up, Shiryu struggles to his feet again
to continue the battle. He realizes that without his armor that pressure spot is unprotected by
anything except his own skill. Yet he must lower his guard over that area to launch his "Rozan
Ascending Dragon" attack. He dares not be overconfident now! The two go at each other
again. Both land good, solid blows, but Shiryu is knocked out of the ring and lies still, while
Seiya is still on his feet. Seiya is called the winner (because Shiryu has landed outside the ring,
not because he has not gotten up), but as the doctors rush to Shiryu's still form, Seiya
collapses. As the stretcher bearing Seiya begins to leave the ring, the other doctor declares that
he can't find a heartbeat in Shiryu! The tatoo on the Dragon's back is fading rapidly as Shunrei
goes to Seiya, begging him to help. A blow of his fist is the only thing which may get Shiryu's
heart going once more. Seiya, still reeling and nearly unconscious, agrees. He nearly faints
again, but manages to land a punch on target. He is actually imparting a part of his own life
force to Shiryu. Shiryu's body and Andromeda Shun, who is holding him, are knocked through
a wall, and the tatoo on Shiryu's back returns to its full splendor as a heartbeat resounds. Seiya
is carried out of the arena in triumph. But behind, Andromeda's chains rattle a warning, and we
get a brief glimpse of a rather nasty grin...



Episode 6.

"Phoenix! Look at Hades, warrior!"

Seiya is still in a hospital bed with Miho and several children from the orphanage in attendance
when Shiryu, recovered, and Shunrei come visiting. Shiryu is momentarily unsure of his
welcome, but Seiya greets him as a good friend. Shiryu tells Seiya that tonight it is Shun and
Jabu squaring off. But, he adds, there is an odd feel to the air... there is danger coming. He
reminds Seiya that there is still one Bronze Saint missing, Phoenix Ikki, who was sent to the
infamous Death Queen Island to train. They decide to go to the arena, despite the fact that
Seiya isn't supposed to be out of bed yet. Shun and Jabu are already in combat, and Jabu is in
difficulty. Shun is beating him without even raising a sweat, the "Nebula Chains" doing most of
the work. Jabu is momentarily on the ropes, his Cloth damaged in several places, when Shun's
chains begin indicating much greater danger. First they spell out the name "Axia", to everyone's
confusion. Who is Axia? Then the chains point to the box where the Gold Cloth is kept. The
box opens, and the Phoenix emerges. The crowd goes wild, but both Seiya and Shiryu still feel
uneasy. For one thing, Shun's chains are still going nuts; Shun throws them at the Phoenix, who
catches them! Seiya informs Shun that the Phoenix should be his older brother, Ikki, and Shun
is overjoyed. Shun remembers their parting when Ikki was sent to Death Queen Island. Then
Ikki delivers a punch through the "Nebula Chains" that knocks Shun off his feet.



Episode 7.

"It is stolen! The Gold Cloth"

"Defend yourself, Shun!" Ikki yells as he attacks, but Shun only stares at him in disbelief. As
Shun goes down, Unicorn Jabu interferes, this was supposed to be his match with Andromeda!
Ikki knocks the Unicorn out with a single punch for his trouble. Ikki then laughs and taunts
Tatsumi, remembering the many times Saori's butler-cum-bodyguard beat him up while he was
a child. We get to see through his memories some of the training the young warriors were put
through as kids, as well as the fact that Shun was something of a cry baby, and that Ikki
continually stood up for him. Then each trainee drew for their final training camps, and Shun got
Death Queen Island. Ikki volunteered... nay, insisted... on going in his place. Returning to the
present, Ikki is then pitted against Wolf Nachi. Poor Nachi never has a chance. Ikki hits him
once with his "Phoenix Illusion Demon's Fist", and Wolf goes catatonic. Ikki pushes him over
with a single finger. Then Ikki summons the Dark Phoenixes, his minions, who all look like him,
except that their armor is black. They each steal a piece of the Gold Cloth, and disappear,
while demonstrating their ability to teleport.



Episode 8.

"Win it back! The Gold Cloth"

The five remaining Bronze Saints and the Tokyo police give chase to Ikki and his Black
Phoenix team through downtown traffic to the waterfront. Hyoga stays right on their tail,
following by leaping from rooftop to rooftop after them. He summons the others to the wharf
Ikki is at by sending a plume of snow to them. Ikki knocks down a police helicopter with his
Phoenix fire. The Saints search the warehouses for their quarry, and Seiya interrupts Ikki just
as he is trying to don the Gold Cloth. Ikki and his men escape, carrying the pieces of the
Sagittarius Cloth with them. The Bronze Saints manage to find and annihilate quite a few of the
Black Phoenixes. They retrieve about half of the missing Gold Cloth. Ikki, however, is
determined to have all of it. The Bronze Saints discuss matters, and Shiryu says they can't
properly fight the enemy until he and Seiya have their Cloths fixed. He volunteers to take both
sets of Cloth and try to find someone to heal the damage. As he leaves, we get a glimpse of
Ikki's booted foot as he, too, watches Shiryu depart.



Episode 9.

"Formidable enemy! The four Heavenly Knights of darkness"

Open to a press conference with Saori and Tatsumi speaking on the theft of the Gold Cloth.
Seiya brings in a policeman and his police dog; they are going to try and track Ikki down. The
other Bronze Saints follow their own leads. Shun sees a tree that Ikki used to practice his
punches on and has another flashback of their early years training in the area. Then, suddenly, a
cold breeze whips up, and Shun feels a chill up his spine not caused by the sudden rain of
snowflakes. Is it Cygnus Hyoga? Well, it's a Swan, but not Hyoga! Shun barely escapes being
crushed by the tree as it's knocked over by his foe, Black Cygnus, Hyoga's evil counterpart.
Shun finds himself taken by surprise and fighting for his life, rapidly loosing the battle. Then
Hyoga arrives, and Black Cygnus finds he's met his match. His black snow turns white as
Hyoga exerts his influence. Seiya arrives next on the scene. Hyoga is distracted and his
doppleganger takes advantage of this for an attack. Hyoga shrugs it off and counterattacks, is
winning when Black Andromeda shows up and interrupts the battle. All four of the Black Saints
face the three Bronze Saints and deliver a combined warning and challenge to the Bronze
Saints before teleporting away. Saori retreats to her planetarium to consult with Mitsumasa
Kiddo's spirit. Ikki and his requested reinforcements from Death Queen Island, the Black
Saints, plan their next move.



Episode 10.

"Beware Shiryu! The cementery of Cloths"

The episode opens as Seiya is washing his hair. Saori arrives with a message from Ikki: He and
his Black Saints against the Bronze Saints, the winner taking the entire suit of Gold Cloth.
Meanwhile, Shiryu and his foster sister Shunrei go to visit his sensei. Shiryu asks him what he
can do to repair the damaged Cloth. His mentor tells him the information must be earned;
Shiryu agrees to the contest. Roshi discharges energy into the water fall, which in turn sends
flashes of power back at Shiryu, who must deflect all the blows. Finally he succeeds, and his
mentor sends him onward to Mu, who he says can fix the battle damage. Enroute, Shiryu finds
he must fight animated skeletons wearing what appear to be ancient Black Cloths. Despite
being badly outnumbered by the evil spirits, the Dragon prevails and then must continue the
arduous journey. Finally he finds Mu's residence, a tall spire on the top of a rock out-cropping.
There, he is confronted by Kiki a telekinetic young brat, who drops rocks on his head until
Shiryu knocks the spire off its foundation. Then Mu appears, and demonstrates his own
considerable power by resetting the spire on its base. Shiryu pleads with him to heal the Cloth,
the battle against Ikki cannot be won without the Pegasus and Dragon Cloth. Finally Mu
agrees. And at home on the waterfront, Seiya wakes to a nightmare vision of Shiryu being
attacked by a demon (looking suspiciously like a distorted Mu) and knocked into an endless
crevasse to his death...

Episode 2.

"Burn! Meteor punch of Pegasus"

In the arena of the Grand Coliseum in Tokyo, where the Galaxian Wars are being held,Unicorn Jabu defeats Lionet Ban in the ring. The next day, Seiya arrives at the Graude mansionin Japan, where he ends up arguing with Saori and Tatsumi. He expected to find Mitsumasa Kiddo in charge, only to be told Saori's grandfather has died while Seiya was in Sanctuary in training. They don't know where his sister is, and Seiya wants to forget the competition and go
looking for her. Jabu arrives, and there is a brief confrontation between the two Saints. Seiya leaves to return to the orphanage they kidnapped him from to see if anyone there knows anything about his sister. He meets an old friend, Miho, who doesn't know anything about his sister but suggests that if he enters the Galaxian Wars she's bound to notice, the event is
receiving world-wide coverage from all the media. Seiya finally agrees to enter the competition,and finds himself paired against Bear Geki. He is soon locked in deadly combat, and is being throttled by his opponent. Marin's words, that in order to defeat a stronger opponent he must
redirect the opponent's strength back against him, comes to his mind... but how to do it before he passes out? (Yes, he wins... Otherwise they would have had to rename the show before it barely began!)

Episode 1.

"Revive! Legendary hero"

The Galaxian Wars have started, but several participants have not shown up. Saori, in her box
high above the combat ring, sips on a glass of wine and worries where her missing Saints are.
Meanwhile, Seiya is busy trying to defeat Cassios for the right to wear the Pegasus cloth. Their
respective mentors, Marin and Shaina, have an argument which nearly leads to a confrontation
of their own. Seiya wins the match and is proclaimed Saint of the Pegasus Constellation, and
the Master of Sanctuary gives him the rules of the Cloth: "They must be used only to defend the
cause of Righteousness. They must never be used for personal gain or for self interest". As
Seiya prepares to leave Sanctuary, Marin warns him of the dangers of opening Pandora's box.
As he walks away from Sanctuary, Shaina challenges him, and Seiya defeats her after a battle
far more difficult than the one he had with Cassios. After breaking her face mask, he tells her
he's surprised to find she's beautiful, he expected her to be quite ugly. Needless to say, this
remark does nothing to improve Shaina's temper!
