Welcome to the 100 Drabbles Challenge for the beautiful Sailor Soldier Venus/Aino Minako and General Kunzite. I hope you enjoy!

Drabble: #1 New.

Pairings: Minako/Kunzite, slight Rei/Jadeite.

Rating: K+

I have done some research for the Inner Senshi and since I'll sometimes be writing about their past lives, I wanted to give them names. And, of course, I didn't want to just take someone else's idea.

For every scout, I had looked up a respected goddess for each.

Minako's was the easiest because of Venus. Another name for the goddess of love was Cytherea.

Rei is the Scout of War and so I found the goddess of war, Bellona.

Makoto, the Scout of Protection, was given the name Juno Sospita. Juno for short.

Ami, the Scout of Wisdom, was given the name Sophia.

And of course, you then have Usagi as Serenity and Mamoru as Endymion.

For this drabble in particular, I wanted it to feel like they were getting their past and present lives mixed up because of the memory overload so that is why they are addressing each other by their names from the Silver Millennium. Also, they're speaking more formally than they usually do.

Please enjoy and tell me what you think!

Love you guys!

Starting over sucks.

The place you call home no longer seems familiar, the language you speak doesn't seem right in your ears, and your given name doesn't want to register anymore.

But, most of all, the nightmares are a pain in the ass.

I grimaced as I heard the noise signaling that I was at the bottom of my dessert and shoved the empty cup away from me as the waiter came to my booth to retrieve my glass.

"Hey, Minako-chan…are you alright?...Minako?" he asked.

I blinked and rolled my eyes. "Sorry, Motoki-onii-san. I'm a little out of it. Can you get me another chocolate shake please?" I plastered on one of my fake smiles.

The arcade owner gave me a worried glance until he nodded and went to get me another sweet.

Closing my eyes, I sighed and rubbed my temples, trying to get rid of the pounding in my head.

His sea green eyes had haunted me all night…

"Cytherea."

Reluctantly, I opened my eyes to see who had slipped into the booth and smirked. "So, you seem to have also remembered. Bellona."

Her violet eyes glared at me. "You know not to call me by my full name."

"As do you."

Bell opened her mouth but snapped it shut, a look of confusion sweeping over her face. I waited, wishing she'd just spit it out already.

She moved her dark hair over one shoulder and let out a deep breath. "...Do you think the others remember?"

I nodded as I stared at a little kid who made it to the 15th level of the Sailor V game.

"…Do you remember him?"

Reluctantly, I nodded again.

"Hello, Rei-chan! Nice to see you. I got you a chocolate shake as well. Both on the house. Enjoy!"

"Thank you, Motoki-san."

"Thanks."

Swirling my straw, I looked back up at the fire priestess. She had dark circles under her eyes and they seemed red as well. "Bell…how much do remember about him?"

She smirked around her straw. "Let's just say I haven't dreamed so much in my life."

I chuckled without any humor. "Agreed." Looking into the liquid desert, I whispered, "Oh, Bell…I..I miss him so much. Now that I remembered that I…I realized that I killed him again...that I couldn't save him because I didn't remember anything until last night I…it's…" Tears flowed down my pale face and a sob escaped my lips.

In a flash, Bell was at my side with her arms holding me to her chest. "I know, Cyth. I know. I promise you, we'll find a way to get them back. I promise. Endymion probably could help. You'll see," she choked.

We held onto each other and cried for a very long time, longing for the two men we loved.
