**** Reunion With Friends ****
Usagi was asleep for about the space of three hours. And finally she started to awake
again. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Mika, Ami, Mamoru, and ChibiUsa. She recognized
Ami and Mika. However, the other two ChibiUsa and Mamoru she did not know or remember.
Ami spoke to Usagi,
"It looks like you slept well." Ami stated to Usagi and she continued, "that is good that
you slept well." Ami stated in a happy cheerful tone. Usagi just stared. She didn't feel
like talking in front of strangers. Usagi just lie there in her bed refusing to say anything.
Ami spoke to the others.
"Please allow me to have some time alone with Usagi for awhile."
Ami asked the others. Mamoru, ChibiUsa, and Mika simply heeded Ami's request and left
Ami alone with Usagi. Ami turned back to Usagi.
"Now they are gone for now. However, they are your friends too and you must get to know
them again."
Ami stated to Usagi.
"My friends? They are my friends?"
Usagi questioned Ami in a muzzled voice since she had an oxygen mask on her face which muzzled
her voice a bit.
"Yes, they are your friends. ChibiUsa had been so worried for you."
Ami replied to Usagi's question.
"Are friends a good thing?"
Usagi asked in a curious tone.
"Yes, indeed they are. Friends are like valuable jewels which are irreplaceable."
Ami told Usagi.
"I see. My mind is still very foggy and fuzzy. I saw Mamoru and ChibiUsa... they looked
familair to me, but I don't recognize them at all."
Usagi explained to Ami. Ami smiled and held Usagi's hand to give her support. Ami knew that
deep down, Usagi was afraid. Not knowing who she was... was something Ami was glad to help
Usagi with. Usagi looked and Ami-Chan and spoke once more.
"You are my important friend... why?"
Usagi questioned Ami in a tone that she wanted to know why Ami was her friend. Ami thought
for a moment and spoke.
"Sometime ago, Mamoru brought you to him home from the orphanage, and you and I met for the
first time. I took you to a book store and we spent some time there. However, you weren't
the friendly type. You embraced sorrow, loneliness, and bitterness. You were very cruel
to Rei, Makoto, Minako, and myself. So Mamoru asked you to meet with me daily and slowly
I brought you around where you trusted us very well."
Ami explained to Usagi without mentioning that they were Sailor Guardians.
"I see. Thank you for telling me. So, where do I live anyway?"
Usagi asked again.
"You live in Tokyo... or you did. Recently you had experienced bad dreams and because I
got captured and the dreams became too much for you... you left Tokyo never to return
and now you are here and I am here... I will not leave you alone again."
Ami explained and vowed to never leave Usagi again. Ami placed her henshin pen in Usagi's
hand and closed Usagi's hand with hers. Usagi felt the power that was emitted from the
pen and Usagi had a faint smile on her face. This was the first time. Ami was happy
that Usagi smiled for the first time. Usagi spoke.
"Mercury...?"
Usagi questioned Ami. Ami turned to see if the other girl was awake or not and seeing that
she was sleeping, she spoke to Usagi.
"Yes, Usagi. I am Sailor Mercury. The guardian of water and wisdom."
Mercury answered Usagi again explaining who she was actually.
"Am I one of those guardians too?"
Usagi asked in a curious tone.
"Yes, you are Usagi. You are our Princess and we are to make sure you stay safe. You are
Sailor Moon, the champion of love and justice."
Ami explained to her. Usagi seemed to be impressed. Then Usagi spoke up again.
"Could you bring that small girl in here... ChibiUsa... that's her name right?"
Usagi asked in a low tone that only Ami could hear.
"Yes, I will. Hold on. Let me get her for you."
Ami answered Usagi and went into the hallway and brought back ChibiUsa.
"ChibiUsa, I will leave you with Usagi. She seems to be interested with her. Please
be careful. Usagi may be sensitive."
Ami explained to ChibiUsa and Ami brought ChibiUsa to Usagi and she spoke.
"When you're done, please come get me please."
Ami explained to ChibiUsa and Chibiusa nodded her head and left ChibiUsa alone
with Usagi. Usagi looked at the pink haired girl with great interest.
"Your name I was told, is ChibiUsa... is that your name or something else?"
Usagi asked in a curious tone.
"My name is Usagi like you, everyone here call me ChibiUsa."
ChibiUsa explained to Usagi.
"Oh, I see." Usagi spoke as she looked at ChibiUsa's hair. "I love your hair.
It is so pretty. I have never seen anything like it."
Usagi complimented ChibiUsa in a cheerful tone.
"Thank you Usagi. I am glad you are a bit cheerful. Everyone said that they like it
when you are happy."
ChibiUsa explained to Usagi about her being happy. With ChibiUsa saying this caused
Usagi to shed some tears.
"Me? Why? How can I be happy in a time like this? I can't remember anything! Everyone
I can't remember! And I feel terrible... I just want to die..."
Usagi spoke with deep anguish. Everything seemed to be going fast for Usagi. ChibiUsa
held Usagi's hand and spoke.
"Please don't say things like that! I don't want you to die! You are important to me.
Please don't die!"
ChibiUsa begged with tears flowing from her own eyes. This brought another question
from Usagi.
"Why can't I die?"
Usagi questioned Chibiusa again about herself dying.
"You are important to everyone. I don't like it when you're sad. It breaks my heart
to see you sad. Please cheer up. You're still healing... it takes time for you to heal."
ChibiUsa explained to Usagi. Usagi after that, didn't say anymore. She felt exhausted
again and the medicine started working on her once again and in a few minutes, Usagi
was asleep once more. Mamoru, Mika, and Ami returned to the room.
"I overheard what was said. Usagi wants to die? However, she won't die. She will recover
in due time."
Ami explained that she overheard.
"Really? She will recover? She seemed happy to see me."
ChibiUsa explained about Usagi being happy to see her.
"I see. Usagi will recover. That I can promise you ChibiUsa."
Ami promised ChibiUsa. ChibiUsa looked at Usagi sleeping and spoke.
"I just want her happy and to be with her friends once again."
ChibiUsa wished for Usagi to be happy once again. While Usagi slept this
time, she dreamed. In her dream she sat up on her bed and saw a girl with blond
hair and wearing a white Princess dress with yellow accents approach her and the
Princess's name was Serenity. Usagi looked fearful of this Princess and Serenity
spoke to Usagi.
"Usagi, you have done well to pass my test."
Serenity started.
"Test? What test?"
Usagi questioned her as she looked at Serenity. Serenity replayed for Usagi all that
she had been through and Usagi was shocked to see what she had been through. Serenity
walked up to Usagi and touched her forehead and spoke.
"I will restore your memory to you and your body when you wake up will also be back
to normal."
Serenity explained to Usagi. Usagi was amazed at this.
"What happens now? Is the test over?"
Usagi asked.
"No, not yet. You must face the nightmare again in its entirety and you must face
it head on and if you can overcome the nightmare, you will receive my power...
the power of Princess Sailor Moon once more... without the influence of Queen Metalia.
However, for now... you must rest and when you wake up... you will find your memory
restored once more and your body also healed fully."
Serenity explained and vanished. Then the dream ended. And after three hours, Usagi
woke up and looked at Ami, Mamoru, ChibiUsa, and Mika all watching her. Usagi
spoke.
"I had a strange dream... and my memory had returned... Mamoru, Ami, and ChibiUsa...
my body also seems to have recovered."
Usagi explained to them. They all looked surprised.
"How?"
Ami asked. Usagi looked at Mika and spoke.
"later, I will explain. For now, I am back!"
Usagi spoke in a calm but happy tone. She knew she still had to face the nightmare
once more. That is a story for another time.
