Names and Titles/A Stranger to the Past
---------------------------------------
Naneeka rushed to Adnama's side, "Mittsie! Is she alright? Why did she look so pained? It shouldn't have been."
Mitts looked upset." She is still somehow resisting certain memories. And...the memories being revived are not all pleasant. They will bring more pain then your's did. She has an important role. But there is something that should have been awakened but she may be holding it back."
"What? What is it? Why is it so important the she should remember? To go through the pain of remembering. Is it worth it?"
Mitts chuckled, "The mind of youth. You ask too many questions, little one. In time you will know."
Adnama stirred, "Oh, my head." Naneeka helped her get onto the couch, "What do you remember?" she asked.
Adnama rubbed her head thoughfully, a look of pain still on her face, "Destruction and pain. Something happened a very long time ago, on another planet, I think. It was more beautiful then Earth is now. The sky was filled with stars and beautiful lights, I think nebula's, of many colors. It was like the planet itself was in a nebula. It was gorgeous. But... something happened. A darkness came, blocked the star or sun. Strange energy attacked, destroying everything. I felt someone calling me, and pain an...I-I can't remember anymore." Tears formed but Adnama swiped them away.
Mittsie spoke, "Are you sure? Do you remember who you were in all this?"
Adnama shook her head. Mittsie gestured for naneeka to move up into the kitchen with her as Adnama continued rubbing her temples. "Naneeka," she whispered, "i think she's keeping herself aloof from the memories."
"Huh?"
"What I mean is, she see's part of the memories but is not apart of them. It's like she's looking at them from a stranger's perspective, not feeling the emotions or experiences herself. Only the physical pain from I don't know what." She looked at Adnama, worried, "Something happened to her, Naneeka. Something very traumatic that neither of us know of."
"Does she know?"
"Probably not. It may be deep within her and with the pain she felt, those memories were probably nicked but not opened. It's almost as if they weren't there anymore, like they'd been taken."
"But you siad that they were touched on," Naneeka said, confused.
"in a sence, the door was there, though not opened, but the room was not. It would lead to no where."
Naneeka looked even more confused. Mittsie sighed, "One day, little one, you will understand." Mittsie walked back to Adnama and sat in front of her. "I am Guardian Mischief M.T. Tabby Cat, but you may call me Mittsie or Mitts."
"Mischief?" Adnama cocked an eyebrow in humour.
"I was in my youth," Mitts seemed to blush, "Never mind that. I'm here to guide you and help you remember your past. I am also your guardian."
"A guardian? Me being protected by a cat? This is too funny."
Mitts was undaunted, "Your mother wouldn't have thought so."
"My mother? Which one?"
Your REAL mother. From the past! You are the daughter of Angelica, Queen of the FaerieMoon Kingdom!"
Naneeka smiled, "Isn't that exciting?"
Adnama just stared, surprised by the cats declaration, "I'm...a princess?! Whoa! I'm definitely not princess material. I dislike wearing dresses, unless they are a particular design, and I sure don't like acting lady like. Drove mom crazy. Well, at least my adopted mom."
"Hmph! Made your real mother upset as well. You were quite the 'tom boy', as they call it here."
Adnama shrugged, "Guess somethings never change, even after a millenia." Mitts looked surprised, "How did you know it's been that long?"
"I-I don't know. It just came to me. But I'm from another planet, dimension, timeplace, whatever, how and why did I get here?"
"That is very strange, I know. I think it had something to do with your relatives."
Adnama threw up her hands, "Great! Now I have more family. Guess I'll have to cancel Christmas alone. What about these relatives?"
"Your mother had a sister and she had a daughter. Both sister and niece lived on another planet in a distant system. They were very close and constantly visited each other. You and your cousin were almost like sisters! You cared for each other greatly. Unfortunetly, near the time our kingdom's destruction, when danger was sensed, they could no longer visit again. Our planet was never in the same dimesion as your relatives. It was phased into another dimension. The only way your aunt and cousin could visit was through a special portal in the orian Nebula, invisable to all but to those who knew its secret. No one would ever know we exsisted except the planet we were in orbit with, Endora, who was also in our dimension, the stars, our own star(or sun as you may call it), and our beautiful lighted nebula that protected us. But someone did discover us. A force, so powerful it caught us by surprise. We don't know how but the discovered our portal and caused our planet to phase into this dimension. It was unbelievable! What force could do this? They attacked us severly and caused destruction on the moon. Many fought, including those from this system, but all was lost. You vanished and I could not find your mother. The moon could not handle the stress of being pulled into this dimension. There was an explosion and..." Mitts shook, "I don't know what happened. I was severly wounded but somehow had been rescued before the explosion. I arrived at your aunts kingdom and told what I could. The last I remember was being put into stasis for healing and then...I awoke on this earth, born as any normal cat. that is how I found Naneeka." She looked at Naneeka who smiled.
"Auntie, you remember my finding Mittsie when I was seven. Well, after the night when we saw that meteor shower, a few month back, her forehead began glowing and she talked! I was so surprised, but she did the same beam thing to me as to you and I remembered everything. Well, almost everything." She curtsied before Adnama and bowed her head, "Your highness, I am Faraneeka of Willowstream, guardian-in-training to her Imperial Highness, Princess Adnamania(that's you, Auntie*giggle*), and daughter to Titania, Queen of the Faeries. Naneeka is my nickname."
"Wait! Titania? Like from Shakespeare?"
"Yes," Mitts sighed, "One of the few humans to know about her and to write about faeries. Queen Titania came to Earth when our moon was, well, we believed destroyed, and so did a few faeries. not many escaped the destruction of our moon but those who could use thier magic to escape and avoid detection, did. But sadly they can no longer be found. Beacause of human development, they vanished to who knows where. But I have a feeling they are alive."
"Alright," Adnama sighed, "Now that I've got some more background, let's get back to my orignial question. How's I get here?"
"Well,"Mitts pondered, "I, uh, I really don't know. The reason I believe your aunt had something to do with it was, well, she has a powerful weapon, similar to what your mother had. But is was not really a weapon and not really anything describable. It is or was, an object of emense power, as was your mothers. I think it had something to do with yours and my being here."
"And what about Naneeka? Wouldn't she be the same?"
"Well. considering she was a faerie in her past life, I believe she escaped the moon's destruction with the other faeries and come to Earth with her mother."
" Adnama seemed confused, "Still, that doesn't explain how she was born to my adopted sister and brother-in-law. If she was a faerie, why would she need to be made mortal?"
Mitts thought, "That I am unsure of. Naneeka, would you know? Naneeka?" Mitts turned and smiled at the sleeping form an the couch. "I guess it is late."
"I'll put her to bed." Adnama picked up Naneeka and carried her to one of her spare rooms down the hall. Laying her gently on the four post bed, she pulled the comforter over Naneeka, kissed her forehead and brushed away strands of hair from her face. Naneeka smiled and turned her sleep, murmering, " 'Night mamma." Adnama chuckled and left the room. Coming into the living room, she picked up the phone, called Naneeka's frantic parents, ensured them that she was alright and yes, she didn't mind having her over for a while, and hung up. She looked at Mitts, "So, why am I being told this? Obviously there is no need to know since there is no longer a FaerieMoon Kingdom."
"Adnama, you recall the meteor shower Naneeka talked about?"
Yeah, so?"
"That was no ordinary shower. That was a large battle being won. The meteors were star seed."
"Star seed?"
A strong warrior known as Sailor Moon fought with a senshi known as the strongest of Senshi's, Sailor Galaxia. I know not what happened, only that all the star seeds were returned to their owners. But what no one knows is that one of those star seed was different from the rest. A dangerous star seed that had been collected centuries ago."
Adnama seemed to think a while, "So, what about this star seed?"
"It belongs to someone very powerful. Someone even Galaxia could never have known about. How she got the star seed is beyond me. But that's not important right now. this powerful being is know as Midnight Mistress. What makes it worse, she seems to have one objective; destruction. This is what I've felt ever since the star seed were released. And that is why I've revived Naneeka's memories and yours. Unfortunetly, yours are not revived the way the should have been."
"What are you saying?"
"I'm saying that somehow, your mind is blocking something and causing you to avoid some kind of memory. It's like a firewall. You feel immence pain when it's hit. I can't do anything about it. Until you remember somehow, you'll never be apart of those memories. you'll be on the outside looking in. A stranger to your past."
Adnama turned away, "From the pain I felt, I don't know if I want to remember." She looked back at Mitts, "So, what now?"
Mitts was quiet, "There's nothing you can do. Since your memory is incomplete, there's little you can do." Then she thought a bit, "Perhaps there is one thing."
Adnama waited and listened.
