Saint Seiya: The Hades Chapter - Season 1 Episode 12 The Cloth of Athena
Shion reveals that the Gold and Silver Saints revived by Hades never betrayed Athena and would never hurt her. He also shows the Bronze Saints the reason why they went through all this trouble. He uses Saori's blood and it flies towards Athena's statue. It begins to glow and then shrinks down to a tiny version of itself. Shion explains that the statue is really the Athena Cloth, which needs her blood to awaken. Shion was the only one who knew the secret. If Saori plans to win against Hades, she needed her Cloth. In the Underworld, Hades came to Shion and the other Saints, revived them and offered them a deal: if they killed Athena in 12 hours, they would be granted eternal life. They pretended to accept the deal, to enter the Sanctuary and get her blood for her Cloth, so Athena would defeat Hades. Shion gives the Bronze Saints the following order: go to Hades' castle and destroy him. At Hades' Castle, Saga and his group take Saori's body covered in a sheet to Pandora, but the sheet is revealed to be empty, and they are there to find Hades and kill him. Shion's 12 hours are almost up and will return to the Underworld soon. He gives the Saints Athena's blood to revive their heavily damaged Cloths. Now, with their Final Bronze Cloths, Shion entrusts the Seiya and his friends with Athena's Cloth to make sure Saori receives it. Aiolia, Mu and Milo arrive at Hades' Castle and face Rhadamanthys, but for some reason, they can't defeat him, and the Specter picks them apart, with no effort at all. Shura is about to cut Pandora, Camus freezes a Specter, Frog Zeros, and Saga asks Pandora to take them to Hades. But they are weakened, because their 12 hours are almost up. Pandora demands to know where Athena is, and Saga tells her that she is in the Underworld. Pandora realizes that Saori plans to fight Hades. Rhadamanthys is about to toss Aiolia into the Underworld, but Shun's chain rescues him. The four Bronze Saints have finally arrived.
