Chapter 4...
2 hours later, inside carnival....
Pagan and Serena, slowly strolls down the carnival walkways, joyously exclaiming over all the totally amazing attractions, the beautiful bursts of the fireworks within the night sky.
Shopping at booths that were filled with food, trinkets, weapons, jewelry, books, and about anything and everything to the imagination.
'Paige.... Can I ask you something?' Serena asks within the psychic link between them.
'Sure Serey kitty.... You can ask me anything you know that.'
'Umm...how can we do this? Talk to each other without our voices, I mean?'
Halting their stroll, Pagan softly looks down at Serena a moment before responding with 'Hey, lets get something to eat, and sit down and I will explain it to you....'
Looking up at her cousin, Serena calmly nods in agreement, an action that would have totally stunned the senshi and Darien if they had witnessed it.
Getting a small bowl of soba noodles, and rice, along with a pot of tea, Pagan and Serena find an out of the way table, away from the crowds, giving them some privacy.
Eating slowly, Pagan watches as Serena attempts to curb her up-to-date eating habits copying that of Paige's.
Taking a moment to collect her thoughts, and to decide, important issues like, where to start, what to tell her, not to mention what NOT to tell her.
"To answer your question, about the how we are able to speak to each other within our minds, is simple...in fact I am rather surprised that you don't remember it Serena..."
"What do you mean?"
"Serena...don't you remember? You and I have always had the Mind link, ever since were were little.we started talking in mind-speech before we basically learned how to talk with out voices."
Trying to remember. Serena thinks back, but comes to a blank.
Shaking her head Serena looks at Pagan. "I can't seem to remember Paige...everytime I do, its like I hit a brick wall."
Looking at her meal, Pagan thinks about it a moment before responding....
"Sounds like you blocked it all out...from all that I have heard, you totally changed after the murder of my parents, and the assumption of my death as well."
Looking confused, Serena asks "Then how can we talk in "mind-speech" if I can't remember any of it?"
"Simple Serey Kitty.its because its me that is projecting my thoughts to you, and hearing your thoughts in return."
"I wish I could remember...it would be Really Cool to be able to do that...to be able to talk to someone without having everyone listening in."
"Well if you really do feel that way Serena.... There IS a way to restore your memories.... But I would have to have help from a very close friend to do it."
Pagan looks into Serena's expressive Blue eyes, and suddenly sends the suggestion to Tal'lan.
"Well...do you trust me Serey Kitty?"
Without a moment's hesitation, Serena jumps up from her chair and hugs Pagan tightly "Of COURSE I TRUST YOU PAIGE!"
Upon receiving an answer from Tal, Pagan nods and smiles. "Alright then.... Whenever you're ready Serena, we'll go to my home, and see what we can do.which would you like to do, stay a while longer, or go home?"
Looking around the carnival, Serena once more makes a decision that would have supremely shocked the others...
"Let's go to your place Paige...I want to learn.to remember, what I have forgotten again.... Please..."
"Alright then, let's go.... And don't worry about your parents...I'll think of something" Pagan says smiling.
