30 Kisses

A/N: So this started out as a game on another board, but i loved the way it was developing so I thought I would share it. A friend gave us these tables of thirty words/phrases and we had to pick a pairing. Then write a short fic for each of words/phrases using that pairing. The catch was you couldn't change the pairing, it had to be under 1,000 words and each story had to contain at least one kiss. She did this with two different tables and two different boards. So I actually have two pairings with two different tables. This is the second pairing written for this game. Wonder who it is? Well I'll let you figure it out and I'll state it at the bottom. The chapter names will be the inspiration words if you are curious.

Disclaimer: I don't Sailor Moon or its characters.

Chapter 1

Memories

There was music and laughter, dancing and singing. The men were dressed in their dress uniforms or tuxedos. The ladies all wore various lavish gowns. Even though the lighting was quite bright, she couldn't see anyone's face. Which was normal for these dreams, but there was a difference this time. Instead of simply being an observer, she was a part of the magically scene around her. She, like everyone else was dressed her finest and enjoying the party.

Though faces remained hidden, Rei knew some of those around her. Her eyes were drawn to the moon princess greeting the visiting prince from earth. As a member of the princess' court and the princess of Mars, she was expected to be a part of the receiving line as well as help entertain one of the prince's generals. Out of nowhere, a tall blonde man dressed in a uniform denoting himself as a general from earth stood in front of her. She was surprised for she could see his face. Then Rei woke up.

Hino Rei, now a priestess at the Cherry Hill Temple, knew the face from her dream very well. Jadeite had been the first of Queen Beryl's generals that the sailor senshi had fought. The more Rei thought about her dream, the more she realized that it wasn't a dream. It was a memory. That memory had been the first time she had ever met Jadeite. Actually it was the first time any of them had met the prince of earth and his four generals.

As that memory returned so did another. They kept coming to the point that Rei was now sobbing. She had forgotten so much and so much had happened since. And even though she had been forced to eventually battle Jadeite in the present and on the moon kingdom, it still broke her heart.

Rei knew what she had to do, but she couldn't do it alone. So she called up two of her closest friends. She didn't think she could handle questions from all of them, especially after the ones she got from the first two phone calls. They agreed to come straight over.

It didn't take them long and soon Usagi and Ami were at her door. Upon their arrival, all three transformed. Sailor Moon, Mercury and Mars joined hands and shouted,

"SAILOR TELEPORT!"

In the blink of an eye, the senshi were standing in the snow and ice of the North Pole.

"Do you know what you're looking for?" Mars asked Mercury anxiously. Sailor Mercury was typing like crazy on her mini computer. She didn't answer but merely pointed in one direction. Sailor mars headed off taking the lead and picking up the pace with every step.

As she got closer more memories assaulted her. Then, all of a sudden, there he was in front of her. Sailor mars fell to her knees in front of the crystal. The look on his face was too much to bear. But knowing she couldn't leave without doing one thing, she rose to her feet. And standing on her tip toes, Rei, Sailor Mars, the princess of Mars and protector of the moon princess, and a woman, whispered,

"I love you," and kissed the crystal casing of her former lover with all of their memories in her heart.

A/N: In case you didn't figure it out, my pairing is ReixJadeite. But ya'll already knew that. Please review and keep reading. Oh and Thank you for reading this one. I hope you liked it. And a special thanks to Luna for the inspirational words.
