I don't own Sailor Moon characters.
Michiru frowned while she sat by Hotaru on the latter's bed. She was able to battle enemies without many problems, but she couldn't heal a sick girl. She viewed Hotaru wincing under a blanket. *I'm too helpless to save your life, Hotaru* she thought. Michiru glanced at a stuffed firefly on a table. *A companion for you* she thought.
Michiru took the firefly and placed it in Hotaru's arms. She imitated Hotaru's expression after the latter smiled. *You're with me. You're with your toy* she thought. Michiru watched as Hotaru closed her eyes.
A few hours later, Michiru sat on Hotaru's bed again. Tears began to form in her eyes. Michiru embraced the firefly. She was without Hotaru and with the firefly.
THE END
