This takes place during Sailor Moon Sailor Stars. I have been curious
about the conversation between Usagi and Rei after she revealed that Mamaru
had not responded to any of her letters. This is also a way for me to
touch up on the close friendship between the two. Please email me and tell
me what you think. Ebass12136@aol.com

The Truth

The rain was coming down hard. Protected by her umbrella, Rei Hino stood
outside the Tsukino house gazing up at the window to Usagi's room. The
last twenty-four hours had been exhausting. Rei replayed the whole thing
in her mind. First the enemy had tried to take Usagi's star seed. They
knew she was Sailor Moon. The princess of the Starlights had appeared
after saving Usagi. Knowing that the enemy was after Usagi's star seed Rei
and the others did everything they could to protect her. Haruka and
Micharu sat outside of Usagi's house all night guarding her. Rei and
Minako stopped by the house to walk Usagi to school. Ami, Makoto, and
Minako provided Usagi with self-defense items and guarded her all day.
Usagi protested but the others were determined to protect her. It wasn't
until Usagi begged to be alone Ami, Makoto, and Minako left her to be by
herself. Rei was furious with the others when she found out and demanded
to go back for Usagi. The enemy attacked Usagi but with the help of Sailor
Star Fighter managed to win the battle. On the rooftop of the school Rei
and the others watched as Usagi broke down to Seiya about how much she
missed Mamaru. Seiya asked, "Am I not good enough Dumpling?" The girls
realized that Seiya was in love with Usagi. With Mamaru studying overseas
in America Usagi had been spending a lot of time with Seiya. Usagi had a
big heart and would not let Seiya down. Rei realized that she needed to
talk to Usagi about this.
It wasn't just the situation with Seiya that concerned Rei. Since Mamaru
left for America Usagi had changed drastically. She was always such a
happy carefree girl but lately she had been so depressed. She just was not
the girl that Rei and the others knew and loved. Rei hoped to get some
answers out of Usagi tonight.
Rei rang the doorbell and Mrs. Tsukino opened the door. "Well hello Rei,"
she said. "This is not the night to be out."
"Hello, Mrs. Tsukino," Rei said. "I have to talk to Usagi."
"Usagi is taking a bath right now," said Mrs. Tsukino. "But you are
welcome to wait for her in her room if you like."
"I will," said Rei. "Thank you."
Chibi Chibi was sitting on Usagi's bed. "Hi Chibi Chibi," Rei said to the
toddler as she sat down beside her.
"Hi," said Chibi Chibi.
Rei saw a picture of Usagi with Mamaru and Chibi Usa. How happy Usagi
looked in that picture. Rei missed that happy Usagi. But with Mamaru off
in America and Chibi Usa back in the 30th century Usagi hadn't seen either
of them.
Usagi came into the room in her pajamas and her hair down. "How different
she looks without her dumplings," Rei thought to herself. Usagi was
surprised to see Rei here.
"Are you going to talk to him?" asked Rei getting to the point as she
always did.
"Who?" asked Usagi.
"Seiya," said Rei. "You have to tell him or he will be hurt. You are
promised to Mamaru. You cannot keep leading Seiya on like this."
Usagi gazed at the picture of Mamaru. "I wonder what Mamaru is doing now,"
she said with tears in her eyes."
"What are you talking about?" asked Rei. "You have been keeping in touch
with him, haven't you."
"He has not responded to my letters," said Usagi.
"Since when?" asked Rei concerned.
"Since the beginning," said Usagi crying hard now.
"Usagi why did you tell us?" asked Rei realizing now why Usagi had been so
down lately.
"Chibi Chibi," said Chibi Chibi turning on the radio interrupting the
conversation.
"Chibi Chibi," said Rei gently. "We're talking. Why don't you find your
mama?" The announcement on the radio suddenly distracted her. The Star
Lights were breaking up. There was to be a final concert the next day. Rei
noticed that Usagi was still crying. She took Chibi Chibi by the hand and
led her to the stairs. "Mama is downstairs," she said. "Go find her."
"Her," said Chibi Chibi and she toddled downstairs.
Rei went back to Usagi's room. Usagi was sitting on her bed crying very
hard. Rei sat down beside her and wrapped her arms around Usagi and held
her tightly. "Now tell me everything," she said gently.
"I have written to Mamaru everyday since he left for America," sobbed
Usagi. "He has not answered one letter. At the beginning I thought maybe
he just needed some time to get settled in. But as time went on I began to
worry."
"I'm so sorry Usagi," said Rei hugging her distraught friend. "I know how
much you must miss him."
"I miss him so much," said Usagi. "It has gotten to a point that I call
his apartment just so I can hear his voice on the answering machine."
"Why didn't you tell us?" asked Rei.
"You were all busy," said Usagi. "All of you are involved in clubs at
school and we have this enemy to deal with. I could not add another
problem to all of this. Besides I wanted to prove to everyone and myself
that I could be strong if I needed to be." Usagi buried her head in Rei's
shoulder and began to cry uncontrollably. Rei stroked Usagi's long hair
and did her best to console her.
"Usagi," she said. "You should not have to worry about something like this
alone. We are your friends and we are here for you."
"I know," sobbed Usagi. "I should have told all of you."
"You have given all of us so much," said Rei. "Without you none of us
would have the rich friendships we have now. Because of you we have all
found each other. You have become one of the most important people in all
of our lives. When you are hurting, we are hurting."
"I know how you feel," said Usagi. "When you hurt I hurt."
"There must be a reason why Mamaru has not been in touch with you," said Rei.
"It's just making me crazy not knowing if he is all right or not," sobbed
Usagi. "I have felt so alone and so empty without him."
"You are not alone," said Rei firmly. 'You have us."
"I know," said Usagi. "You are all such wonderful friends and very
important to me."
Rei continued to hold her crying friend tightly. "I feel so bad," she said.
"Why?" asked Usagi.
"You are my best friend," said Rei. "I should have tried to find out about
this sooner instead I have let you worry and suffer alone."
"Don't blame yourself," said Usagi. "I was the one who kept all of this to
myself."
"Well not anymore," said Rei. "You try and get some sleep and I will call
the others and tell them what is going on. I am sure we can find something
out. You do not have to worry about this by yourself any longer. We will
help you."
"Thank you Rei," said Usagi giving Rei a hug. She climbed into bed.
"I'll stay with you until you go to sleep," said Rei. "We'll find out what
is going on."
Rei waited quietly until Usagi fell asleep and then tiptoed out of the
room. It was still raining hard outside but Rei didn't pay much attention
to it. All she could think about was Usagi and the pain she must be
feeling now. "I should have noticed something earlier," said Rei to
herself. "What kind of best friend am I if I cannot notice why she is so
depressed." Rei gazed up at the window to Usagi's room again. "I promise
Usagi," she said. "We will take care of this now and find some answers."
She dashed home to call the others. They had to help Usagi no matter what
else was going on.
The End
Well that is it. You all know the rest of the story. I hope you enjoyed
it. Once again I would love some feedback.
