Summary: "Serenity." A voice calls out, it is so soft and distance I find myself strain my ears to hear the name I once called my own. "Serenity," there it goes again; so faint, almost haunting. One-shot.

Authoress' Notes: Random surge of inspiration, for lack of a better term inspired this very short one-shot. Not sure what else to say, especially as the clock reads eleven at night. Enjoy.

A sensation of happiness over comes me, adrenaline rushes though and over my veins. And a part of my wants to call out 'mother'. But before I do so I stop myself. Is she my mother…or is Ikuko Tsukino?
