Mamoru rubbed the back of his neck tiredly. He wasn't sure how he would get Usagi out of this place. She had caused so much trouble at first, and had finally started to tone down. The stunt of her hiding in his office didn't help either. He wondered what he could do. He finally compiled a report for Usagi, stating on her vast improvement. He stated that he believed she was fit to act a part in society again, and he prayed that it would be enough to get her out legally. If not, he would just resort to the bottle and sneak her out. If he did that, though, he might as well give up his career as a doctor. He rubbed the bottle again, not wanting to keep Usagi in there any longer than needed.

Usagi appeared him in a puff of smoke and smiled. "So I take it you didn't get me out of here yet, Mamoru?" she asked.

He nodded. "Not yet, Usagi-chan. My report has to be approved before I can have you released. After that, my best wishes go out to you."

Usagi got a funny look on her face from Mamoru's phrasing, and she giggled slightly. "You can say that again." She muttered.

Mamoru looked at her confused. "You still don't get it, do you baka?" She asked. Mamoru shook his head. Usagi sighed and pointed at the bottle.

"Let's go step by step here. Did you watch that Disney movie all the way through?" She asked. "Even after Aladdin rubbed the lamp?"

Mamoru nodded, unsure of where this was going. "Now, what did the genie in the movie call Aladdin? He was dense too, and needed it spelled out for him, but I *won't* go into the whole song and dance routine."

It was finally beginning to click in Mamoru's brain. "You mean...I'm...your..." Mamoru didn't get anything out after that. Going from not believing in anything beyond the rational mind to getting his own personal genie was too much for him. He passed out.



Mamoru finally awakened, and just in time to see Dr. Hongo come in, smiling. "Well, Usagi, it seems that you have improved a great deal in your time here. We will miss you, but we feel that you are able to go back to your life. Dr. Chiba has written an outstanding report about you."

Mamoru looked dazed still, but smiled at Usagi. "Let me get my things, then, and I'll be on my way. Can Dr. Chiba walk me out, onegai?" She gave Dr. Hongo a pleading look and he smiled.

"Hai. Chiba-san will walk you out. You have a good time, Usagi-chan, and I don't want to see you in here again!" Usagi nodded and practically dragged Mamoru out the door. She pulled him into an alley way, where she smiled at him.

"Well, Master, our new life together has begun. Have fun!" She snapped her fingers and vanished into the bottle, leaving Mamoru to wonder what exactly was going to happen to his life now. He decided to visit the arcade and his friend, Motoki. He doubted his friend would believe his story, but Motoki was known to believe more strange stuff than this, so it couldn't hurt.



Motoki stared at his friend in disbelief. "My friend, I think you have been spending too much time in the psycho ward." Mamoru groaned. "I know it's hard to believe Motoki, but it's true!" Mamoru was about to go on, when Hino Rei came in the door, and made a beeline for him. Mamoru looked like he wanted to escape, but he was trapped as Rei came up next to him. Motoki made himself busy elsewhere, and left the two alone, much to the annoyance of Mamoru.

"So, Mamoru-san, what are you doing this weekend? Anything special?" Mamoru choked. "Hai! I'm working this weekend. I have a new patient...she needs lots of help. She thinks very abnormal things." Rei gave him a skeptical look. "Sure, Mamoru-san. Whatever you say." She walked off in a huff, while Usagi seethed inside the bottle. This was *her* master! How dare that woman even dare to talk to him!" Usagi realized that she was starting to sound jealous, and she quickly shut her mind of that thought.

He was her master, and that was it. All she had to do was grant him his wishes, and then he would be rid of her forever.

But did she really want to be rid of him?
