The green light glowed in the sky. Makoto slowly walked towards it. As she approached, she heard two men talking. Listening to the conversation, Makoto found out that they were two of the top generals. They had been ordered to kill the Senshi. Makoto let out a low gasp of horror. As she listened closer, she heard footsteps behind her. Turning to see who was there, Makoto was grabbed by another general. She could not move. As she squirmed, his grip tightened. She could feel her ribs being snapped in half. Makoto let out a scream of pain.
"Mako-kun! What's wrong? Are you okay?"
Makoto opened her eyes to see the blue eyes of Seiya peering down at her. She could tell that she was drenched with sweat from her dream. Her ribs hurt a bit-almost as if they were bruised. Seiya looked like he was extremely worried about her. Suddenly, Makoto remembered that she had had a dream. Tears started to stream down her face as Minako and Rei appeared in the doorway to Makoto's room.
"What the hell happened?" Rei exclaimed as she held a lighter and a can of hairspray.
"Are you alright Mako-chan?" Minako asked as she lowered the vase in her hands.
"Yeah." Makoto paused. "I'm fine. Just a dream."
"Come on out here and I'll get you a glass of water and you can tell us about the dream." Minako said.
Makoto pulled back the covers and moved to get out of bed. As she stood, Makoto screamed out in pain. She pulled up her nightshirt to examine her ribcage. Seiya turned away and blushed. As she had suspected, her ribs were bruised. Almost broken. Rei and Minako gasped and told her to lay back down on the bed. Minako ran to get Makoto a glass of water and returned seconds later. Makoto took a sip of water and set the glass back on the nightstand.
"It was another dream. There was the green light again. I followed it and found two generals talking. They had been ordered to kill the Senshi. Then another general came up behind me and grabbed me. I couldn't break free from his arms...he just squeezed me tighter. It felt like my ribs were being snapped in two! I screamed and woke up. That's when Seiya came in." Makoto explained slowly.
"Wow, it looks like what Makoto dreamed, happened to her in real life." Rei said in horror.
"Yeah, freaky...Makoto, are you going to be okay?" Minako asked, a worried look on her face.
"Yeah, I'll be fine. I tend to heal quickly...as long as I don't have any other dreams." Makoto replied.
Rei and Minako left the room. Seiya got up from where he was sitting on the ground and headed for the door. Makoto grabbed a hold of his hand. A pulse of intensity surged through her body. It was like nothing she had ever felt. With shock, she glanced up at Seiya. He looked back down upon her, his face softened. Makoto regained her composer.
"Stay." Makoto said.
"What?" Seiya asked in shock.
"Stay here with me...please. I just don't want to be alone right now." Makoto said as Seiya turned his body towards her.
"Okay. I'll stay here with you." Seiya said softly as he slid into bed beside Makoto.
"Hold me." Makoto asked as she began to shake a little from the initial shock of the dream.
Seiya put his arms around Makoto's chest as to not touch her bruised ribs. He did not know exactly what to think. He loved Makoto. Could it be that she loved him in return? Or was she just frightened? Soon, Seiya fell asleep holding on to Makoto. Likewise, Makoto fell asleep holding onto Seiya. She felt at peace when he was around. He was her comfort.
Makoto clung to the bars of her steel prison hanging in the rafters of the huge room. Her mouth had been gagged and her ribs ached. A girl entered the room below. Ami. She held her computer in her hand as she tried to analyze the room. She did not see Makoto hanging above her. A large figure appeared in one of the other doorways across the room. Makoto tried to get Ami's attention, but it was no use. The figure moved into the light. Ami looked up as he approached her. She prepared an attack, but did not finish it. The man in the general outfit seemed to have some sort of control over her. He had long brown hair that was swept back in a loose ponytail. He was tall and muscular. An aura of aristocracy glowed around him. Ami put down her computer and danced with the general. There was no music, but Ami continued to dance. The general waved his hand across her face and Ami fell limp in his arms. Makoto screamed, but her screams were muffled by the gag in her mouth. Two other generals entered the room and carried Ami out. Makoto screamed again.
Makoto shot awake. Seiya jerked from where he was laying to comfort Makoto. She cried as she buried herself in Seiya's chest. What did her dreams mean? Seiya stoked Makoto's brown wavy hair to calm her down. Finally, Makoto raised her head to look into Seiya's eyes. Tears streamed down her face. Seiya listened to Makoto as she told him about the dream. They agreed to not tell the others until morning. It had already been a long night. Makoto laid back in her bed. Seiya put his arms around her once more. He leaned over her and kissed her forehead. Again, a surge of red intensity rushed through her body. Seiya felt it as well, and looked into Makoto's eyes.
"Seiya?" Makoto asked shyly.
"Mako-kun." Seiya whispered softly as he softly kissed Makoto's lips. "I love you."
"I..I love you too. Somehow, I always have." Makoto replied softly.
Makoto and Seiya fell asleep holding each other. The night passed without another instance of dreams. Minako and Rei awoke at 8:30 a.m. and quietly walked past Makoto's door. Rei fixed breakfast while Minako straightened up the apartment. All of a sudden the phone rang. Minako answered it. After a few seconds of conversation, silence fell upon her. Minako dropped the phone and burst into tears.
"Mina-chan! Mina-chan! What's wrong?" Rei exclaimed as she rushed over to her friend, who was now on her knees.
"Rei...Ami's...dead." Mina stammered out through her tears.
"Mako-kun! What's wrong? Are you okay?"
