Ch.4
Mistaken identity

Ail woke up first. It was still dark, and he had his arm around who he assumed to be Ann. "Ann-koi..." he said quietly. It was almost time for the sunrise, and Ann always wanted to be awake for that. He would just have to wake her up, but pleasantly. He rolled her over on her back, and leaned down. "Ann-koi........" he whispered again, to see if he would wake up. Of course she didn't, but he wasn't expecting her too. He bent over, so that his face way right over hers, and kissed her.

Usagi was dreaming. She had stayed the night at Mamoru's, for some reason, even though she had never done that before. "Usako, you know I love you, right?"
"Yes Mamo-chan, I love you as well." she replied, smiling brightly. He carried her over to the bed, and set her down. "I'm going to go sleep on the couch. I wouldn't want to do anything that would cause your overprotective father to lose his trust in me, would I?" He said, smiling. He pulled the covers over her.
Usagi pouted, but she knew it was true. "Okay, but Mamo-chan?"
"What?"
"Would you give me a kiss before you leave me tonight?" She said, smiling serenly.
"Oh of course Usako, I love you." He said, leaning down and kissing her deeply. Before he could lift his head up though she started kissing back. "Usako..." "Ann-koi...." That was when she realized she wasn't dreaming anymore.

She opened her eyes to see Ail kissing her. She pushed him off, blushing, and scootted a few feet away. "Sorry..." The sky had lightened enough, that Ail got a good look at who he was kissing. "Usagi-chan?!" He blushed, his light bluegreen skin gaining a pink hue.
Usagi's eyes filled up with tears as she realized what happened. It was a dream, just a dream. Never again will she ever see her Mamo-chan, Endymion. Never will he kiss her, and never will she ever be able to see him or Chibi-Usa again. She would never even get the chance to see her friends, family, or be able to protect her planet. Because there was nothing left to protect. Because she failed.
Ail's eyes darkened as he realized what happened. It was only his wishful thinking, and forgetful memory, that it even occured. Because he would never be able to see his Ann until he died, and would never hold their baby in his arms. The only time he even saw it was when she miscarried, and that wasn't even really their baby. Even worse, his father figure was dying fast, and he would be all alone. Well not all alone. Usagi-chan was there, somehow. He wondered why she had such a heartbroken look on her face, and why she was crying; why she was even here was a mystery. It gave him a bit of motivation, to ask why she was here, what had happened.
"Usagi-chan?"
She looked up at him with haunted eyes. "Yes Ail-kun?" A tear dripped down her pale star kissed cheek.
"How did you get here? Why are you here?" He looked at her with saddened eyes, darkened by his own misery.
