I do not own Harry Potter or Sailor Moon.
"Heartless: Games of the Mind" Chapter One

---------
It was a sunny day at Britain's National Zoo, where Usagi, a cheerful 10 year-old, had just met a Mr. Harry Potter, also 10. After they bumped into each other as Harry was exiting the Snake House, the two had started talking. Harry was promptly abandoned by his family, the Dursleys, though Usagi did not know why.
The two spent the day exploring the many fun aspects of the zoo, and they talked for the rest of the day. Usagi discovered that Harry was in the care, if it could be called that, of his late mother's sister. The boy didn't have much else to say on the matter, explaining, as he put it, that, "none of it would be positive."
"Harry-kun!" the day was quickly drawing to an end, and Usagi was saddened at the prospect of losing her newfound friend, as both of them lived so far away from eachother, though both in England.
"Yes, Usagi?" Harry turned to her, and she couldn't help but blush. Harry was rather attractive, although there were several bruises on his arms and face, which he refused to explain.
Usagi, noticing her parents were at a concession stand, reached into her purse, then held out a necklace with a crescent moon on it. "My mom gave this to me and said to save it until I could give it to a dear friend." She blushed again. "I want you to have it." The bunny handed him the necklace, then pulled at her collar a bit, before pulling out an identical necklace which hung around her neck. "See, I have one too!"
"Are you sure?" Harry was bewildered- he'd never been given anything so nice before from his family, much less from a stranger.
"Yes... It's a gift!"
"Thanks, Usagi." Harry took the necklace, and in the process grasped her hand briefly. "I'll keep it forever."
Usagi smiled. "Forever's a long time. How 'bout, until we see eachother again??"
Harry nodded, and hoped that they would.
"Harry! Get over here! We're leaving!" Mr. Dursley's voice boomed at them.
"Coming, Uncle!" Harry looked at Usagi. "Goodbye, Usagi."
"'Bye, Harry..." Impulsively, Usagi pulled Harry into a hug. When she pulled away, Harry's face was slightly crimson.
"Get over here now, boy!" It was Mr. Dursley again.
"Coming! 'Bye, Usagi..." Harry turned around, and walked towards the Dursleys.
"'Bye, Harry." Usagi said sadly, and walked over to where her parents stood.

*Four years later*
Usagi groggily woke up, and was frightened by the sight of a small- elf?- putting clothes away in a bureau across the room. The elf noticed she was awake, and said hello to her. Usagi stared for a few seconds, and promptly screamed.
She jumped out of bed, and, ran for the door. But before she could open it, it had already been opened by a woman, who looked rather snobbish, and to Usagi, somewhat scary.
"Usagi? Why are you carrying on so?" The woman frowned, looking as though something unpleasant were under her nose. Usagi merely stared.
"Usagi??" The woman looked slightly worried. "Are you alright, dear?"
"Usagi? Who's that?" Usagi was confused. Was that her name? And for that matter, where was she?
The woman's eyebrows arched at this statement. "Why, you, of course."
"Me?"
"Yes, you! Now stop playing daft, and get dressed for breakfast." The woman moved swiftly over to the bureau, and quickly pulled out a rather expensive-looking dress, and a long, silver robe. She moved and placed them on the bed. "Wear these. I'll send Charles up to
escort you to breakfast." Usagi nodded timidly, waiting for the woman to, hopefully, leave.
Usagi sighed. "Usagi, huh? Well, if she says so, I guess that's my name." She looked around the room for the elf that had, during the older woman's presence, seemingly disappeared. Seeing no one else in the room, Usagi moved over to the bed.
"Well, I don't know what I'm doing here, but I may as well make the best of it." She dressed quickly, after making use of the hairbrush sitting on a nearby dresser. A knock came at the door.
Usagi, after one last glance in the mirror, pulled open the heavy door. "Yes?"
A man, wearing the uniform of a butler, was standing outside the door."I've come to walk you to breakfast, Miss Moon."
'Moon?' Usagi thought. 'I suppose that's my surname...Why don't I remember it..?' She nodded to the man, and walked out into the hall. The butler, whom she assessed to be Charles, closed the door behind her, and held out his arm to her. Usagi stared at it for a moment, before realizing that he meant for her to take it, which she then quickly did.
'Things keep getting weirder and weirder...' Usagi thought, as the man led her down the long hallway and a curved staircase, stopping finally at a set of doors. He opened the door for her, and announced her presence to the room's current occupants. Usagi stepped into the room, glad at least to see the semi-familiar visage of the woman she had met earlier.
She watched as the butler left the room and a blond young man, looking to be about her age, stood up and pulled out a chair. "Usagi?" he gestured to the chair, and waited for her to sit down. After she had, he scooted her chair in, and sat back down in his own seat as Usagi looked around the table. In addition to the woman and young man, there was an older man, whose presence dominated the room. He began to speak.
"Draco, I am apparating to Diagon Alley, today. You and Usagi may come if you like." He looked towards the boy.
"Yes, father." The young man, apparently called Draco, turned to Usagi. "Would you like that, sweet?" Usagi looked stunned for a moment, before speaking.
"Where am I?"
Draco and his mother and father looked at her, clearly suprised, Draco most of all.
"What do you mean, Usagi? You're on Malfoy Manor, of course."
Usagi looked at him suspiciously. "Who are you?"
"Who am *I*? Usagi, what's wrong?? I'm Draco, your fiance, don't you remember??"
He looked at her, expecting to see recognition in her eyes, and to hear her voice, saying that she had joked. He could recieve neither, however, as at his words, her eyes had promptly rolled towards the back of her head, and her body towards the floor.
-----
"Father, are you sure?"
"Draco, you know you are not to question me."
"Yes, father."
"Besides, nothing but good will come of this."
"Yes, father."
"Good. Now, go out there, and act like you love her."
"...Yes, father."

Please review! I haven't written anything in awhile, and I plan on continuing this, but I would really appreciate reviews. Comments, suggestions, questions- all are welcome! Hehehe... I'm loving where I'm going with this. Feel free to say
whatever pairing you prefer; I may or may not do an actual poll later.
