Blue Eyes
Part 4
"Are you sure your ok Ami?" Serena asked concerned. Ami nodded. When it was time for everyone to go home Serena said she'd walk Ami home just in case Ami had another vision attack.
"I'm fine Serena. Thank you for walking me home." Ami said. Serena nodded and then started to leave.
"See yea tomorrow at school!" Serena shouted as she started to run home.
"Ok!" Ami shouted back and walked inside her home. Ami walked into the kitchen and saw a note on the table it was from her mom.
Ami,
Went out with Rick. Wont be back till late so don't wait up.
Love,
Mom
Ami sighed. This was the third time this week that her mom went out with Rick. She walked to her room and dropped her stuff by the desk. Then she went towards her closet to get dressed in her pajamas. When she started to heads towards her bed when she noticed something on her desk. Ami frowned and walked over to her desk. Her eyes widen as she saw a necklace on the desk.
It was a small golden chain with a heart shaped pendent. It was looped with small little diamonds around the border. In the middle was a gemstone that seemed to hung in thin air inside the heart. It was a sapphire stone. Ami stared at it memorized. Then she hesitantly picked up the necklace. The sapphire gem glowed softly as the light hit it in different angles. Ami stared at the small gemstone.
**Flashback**
"Where are we going Heero?" Ami asked. Heero held
her hand gently as he led her into the forest.
"You'll see." Heero said with a slight smile as he
looked back at Ami. Then they came to a stop.
"Ok close your eyes." Heero ordered. Ami
looked at Heero for a moment then closed them. He led her gently over to a
schedule spot.
"Ok open them." Heero whispered in her ear.
Ami opened her eyes and gasped. There was a small waterfall next to a small
stream. Flowers grew all over the place and butterflies fluttered all around.
Flowers that only grew on the moon was here. Even the rare ones where plentiful
here. This part of the forest looked like it hasn't been touch in years.
"It's beautiful." Ami whispered.
"Not as you." Heero whispered as he gently
kissed her neck. Ami giggled and lean back into Heero's embrace. His arms
wrapped around her waist holding her gently. They stood their for a while
enjoying each other's presence. Then Heero pulled something out of his pocket
and held it in his hand. Then he held his hands in front of Ami's face.
"What is it?" Ami asked as she reached for his
hand. Heero smirked and opened his hand. A necklace fell out but he quickly
wrapped his fingers around the golden chain to prevent it from falling to the
ground. Ami eyes widen slightly as she saw the necklace. It was beautiful. The
pendent was a small golden heart with tiny diamonds that bordered around the
edge. In the middle was a sapphire gemstone that hung suspend in the mid air.
"It's for you. For us. As long as our love
lives the sapphire stone will stay suspended in the golden heart. No matter who
far apart we are." Heero whispered in her ear then he gently put it around her
neck. Ami smiled and turned around to face Heero.
"Thank you." She whispered and kissed him.
**End of Flashback**
Ami stepped back dropping the necklace. She stared at it wide eyed. Something about the necklace made a trigger in her long forgotten memories. She stared at the necklace on the floor. The sapphire gemstone glittered as if smiling at her. There was something about that gemstone that reminded her on the Silver Crystal. She hesitantly bent down and picked up the necklace. She gently placed it on the table. It was to late to figure out how the necklace triggered a memory from thousands of years ago.
Ami sighed as she turned off the lights and crawled into bed. She looked at the glittering necklace one more time and then fell asleep.

Sailor Mercury ran as fast as she could. Her legs
screamed for her to stop but she didn't listen. She ignored the battle cried
from all around her. The Moon Kingdom was under attack. She and the other sailor
scouts knew this day was coming soon so they stayed real close to Princess
Serenity. That meant seeing less of Heero. Now the Negaverse attacked. Mercury
stopped looking around her surroundings. Everything seemed so different.
The sapphire gem glowed softly. Ami clutched the golden
heart. Heero was close she could tell. Ami closed her eyes and concentrated.
Then her eyes flashed open and she quickly ran towards her right.
Ami knew she'd get in trouble for this. She was
supposed to stay with the princess but she had to find Heero and make sure he
was safe. Princess Serenity also told her to go. Saying she'll be safe with
Trowa. Ami stopped and when she finally found Heero. He was battling
Negavere's soldiers. Ami frowned. He was outnumbered.
"Shine Aqua Illusion!" Mercury shouted as she
hurled the ice water at the enemy freezing them. Heero looked around startled
then he realized Ami.
"Ami."Heero said as he rushed up and hugged
her. Ami sighed in relief as she hugged him back.
"What are you doing here? You're supposed to
be protecting the Princess." Heero said sternly looking into Ami's eyes.
"I know but I had to make sure your safe."
Mercury said. Heero frowned.
"I'm fine now go back. Your duty is to protect
the princess no matter what. Even if it means me." Heero said. Mercury shook
her head no tears streaming down her face.
"No! The sailor scouts are to protect the princess and
the universe and your are my universe." Mercury cried. Heero looked down at
her softly and held her tighter. Mercury sighed softly. Then she spotted
something in the shadows. She frowned. Her eyes widen as she saw it was a
Negaverse monster.
"Watch out!" Mercury cried as she pushed Heero away.
The monster charged at Mercury. Mercury gave a silent scream in pain as it
stabbed her in the stomach.
"Ami!" Heero's voice cried out. Ami grimaced but
kept her eyes opened glaring at the monster.
"You'll pay." It hissed. Ami frowned.
"You'll pay for taking what's mine." It
hissed. Ami stared at the monster confused. Then she saw what it meant. She
glanced behind the monster and saw Heero. His face full of wariness.
"Leave him alone." Mercury hissed through the pain.
"How little princess? Or you'll what? You know
you're the weakest of all the soldier's." the monster said. Ami frowned.
Her blue eyes turned into ice.
"We'll see about that." Mercury said.
"You know your already dieing." The monster
hissed. Mercury ignored the monster. She closed her eyes and concentrated. Her
bangs gently blew away from her forehead. The golden tiara disappeared leaving
the royal birthmark of Mercury. It glowed brightly in its natural color.
"Planet of ice and wisdom, as the princess and
guardian of the planet I call upon you to grant me the power of Mercury! Power
of ice and water the flows in my blood bring forth your power to me now!"
Mercury shouted. The symbol of Mercury glowed brightly now. Mercury put her
index finger on the monster's forehead. The monster tried to move bout found
the it couldn't. It was somehow frozen to the ground.
"What are you doing? Let go of me!" the
monster commanded. Mercury paid no head.
"No one. No one ever threatens my friends of the
people I love. Especially the ones I love. As the princess of Mercury I banish
you to the world of darkness where you threaten no one!" Mercury said with her
eyes still closed.
"Mercury Star Power!" Mercury yelled. Blue
light flashed from her finger where she put on the monster's forehead. The
monster screamed in pain. It's ugliness melted away revealing a beautiful
women with long black hair and pale light blue eyes. She was beautiful in an
evil kind of way.
"Princess!" the lady hissed. Water and ice
covered the women freezing her.
"I'll be back!" she screamed and then was
frozen. The frozen statue then disappeared leaving nothing but a frozen spot on
the ground.
Mercury fell down to the ground. Blood pored from the
wound on her side.
"Ami!" Heero cried. He ran towards the fallen
soldier. He gently picked her up. He looked down at her face. It was filled with
so much pain.
"Ami?" Heero asked. Ami opened her eyes. She
looked at Heero and smiled gently.
"I'm glad you're all right." Ami gasped. It was
starting to get harder to breath.
"Ami hang on!" Heero cried. Ami looked at him.
Her eyes where filled with sorrow.
"It's to late. Don't worry. We'll be
together again soon." Ami said. She bit back her cry in pain to a muffle. She
smiled at Heero trying to tell him it wads ok. She grasped his hand and weakly
squeezed it reassuringly.
"Ai'shiteru." Ami whispered and then closed
her eye. Her body went limp as she took in her last breath. Heero gasped as she
felt Ami's grip went limp. Then for the first time in his life he cried.
"Ami? Ami!" Heero cried. "Please don't leave me!
Ami!" He shook the girl trying to wake her up but it was no use. A tear fell
from Heero's eyes and fell near Ami's eyes. It looked like she was crying
to. Heero spotted his sword and picked it up.
"Don't worry Ami. We'll be together. Always, even
through death." Heero whispered. He plunged the sword in his chest and gently
fell on top of Ami's cold body. He didn't even cry out in pain.
"Ai'shiteru, Ami. Ai'shiteru." Heero
whispered and gently closed his eyes.

Heero shot up in his bed gasping for breath. Sweat covered his body and his hands clutched the bed sheets. He looked around the room and saw Duo snoring with his mouth open. This time Duo's snore didn't annoy Heero. It actually felt comfort telling him he was really awake. He looked out the window and at the stars.
"Ami." He whispered. If you looked closely there was a small tear the streamed down Heero's face.
~*~
Ami cried out as she woke up from the dream. No more
like a nightmare. Tears streamed down her face and she didn't even bother to
wipe them off.
"It felt so real." Ami said as she ran her hand through
her bangs, soaked from sweat.
"That's because it was real." Ami whispered. More tears spilled over her eyes. All Ami could do was cry.
