Dohko had turned out to be right about everything. Mu had found much advice in his words, as had always happened and for a moment, he wondered why he hadn't come to him at first instead of consulting with Athena.
"I also passed through something similar... a child like Tenma came to free me from the anguish of the past. Give him time, Mu… Shion will return to be as always when he solves his inner battle. ”
And so it had been, although the ancient Pope had to fight other battles much more tangible than those that tied him to the previous Holy War: Bafi began to prefer the company of Shion over the Elyn so that high officials decided that the future Pisces Saint would be trained by Aphrodite and Shion instead of Elyn... and that hadn't liked Camus's little sister too well. But the child was happy and all the adults considered that this was the most important thing.
In turn, Bafi began a friendship with Kiki quite strong, after all, he was the only boy about his age on the road to the twelve temples. Kiki was also a inhabitant of Jamir, like Shion, so little Pisces used to ask his friend for advice to improve every day more and surprise his two Masters. Months later... the next puzzle piece of the new generation of Golden Knights would arrive to the Sanctuary, a girl who managed to revolutionize for the second time the Sanctuary since Elyn's arrival eighteen years ago.

The ancient Pope, in turn, began a personal investigation with Shun and Tara to determine how dangerous Bafi's blood could be and, although the Aries's worst fears were confirmed, the emotions of his heart weren't too affected. Times had changed, there was a renewed air in the Sanctuary and he knew that together with all the Saints who studied medicine would end up finding either a treatment to free the child from the poison... or an antidote so that those who had contact with his blood wouldn't they were seriously affected as long as they were innocent, because deep down they all knew that the poison in the blood of Pisces was their deadliest weapon against enemies.
So, just like he did with Aphrodite, Shion managed to guide Bafi on the right way and avoid him harming his allies, although fortunately, the child maintained a personality almost opposite to that of Albafica in his day to day, being affectionate with the one who gave him the option and making friends with everyone who offered him the opportunity.
Yes, the history repeated again but with new nuances, new company and new ways to explore. Something like a second chance to redeem himself from the mistakes of the past and learn from them to create a Sanctuary that doesn't marginalize any of its inhabitants.
Note: I want to share with you something that made me write this story. When you click on this link, a song will start playing, its rhythm seemed perfect for the story and in fact, it got me excited in the scene where Bafi and Shion hug each other. When I discovered her name, "Reminiscence", I thought it couldn't be more perfect for this story, so I decided to make it the main theme for Bafi.
