Chapter 1
Introduction

It was a late night. The only sound coming from the dark hospital room was the beeping of the machines. On either side of the bed stood two ghostly figures. They both looked like young women who both had medium length straight hair. One was wearing what appeared to be a medival type dress and the other was wearing what appeared to be a sailor outfit.

"When is she going to wake up?" asked the one in the sailor outfit.

"Hopefully soon. They're going to need her help." replied the one in the dress.

"I know. Besides we can't keep this up for much longer. Maybe we should send her a memory to try to wake her."

"I suppose we should. Hopefully this works. Let's hurry. I think I hear someone coming." With that a soft, light blue light surrounded the girl lying in the bed. And with that, the two figures disappeared.

************* The memory...

It was dark and fighting was going on all around her. For someone reason or another she was wearing a really fancy dress. She was running through what was left of the gardens, looking for something or someone, but she couldn't remember what. Ahead of her were four girls wearing sailor outfits. They were fighting against the enemy and were not doing so good. "Hey, come on! You've got to get away from here." She looked down to see a white cat with a crescent moon on his forehead. "Right." she replied. ~Why am I following a talking cat? How come it seemed normal for that cat to talk? Where am I? I know I know where I am but its just not clicking. Oh well, I guess I'll just follow him because he seems to know where he's going.~

Just as she was running up the steps, she heard a voice call out to her. "Hey, look out!" She spun around and saw a black orb hurtling towards her. She went to move but she wasn't fast enough and it hit her in the stomach. The dark energy ripped at her body and she was having troubles breathing. "AHHHHHHH!" she screamed in complete agony as she fell to the ground. Before she hit the ground she heard someone call out her name and something else but she wasn't sure. Everying was all fuzzy. She hit the stone steps with a loud thud. And then everything went black.

************* (End memory)

A nurse walked in to check on her. ~Hmm. I thought I heard someone in here. I guess it was just my imagination.~ And with that she left the room. Not known to the nurse was that the girl who had been in a coma for two months had just moved a little.

************* Across Town 10 minutes later...

Darien was sleeping in his apartment, having a rather pleasant dream, most likely about Serena. What he didn't know was that two ghostly figures, the same ones that were just at the hospital 10 minutes early, were standing by his bed. "Are you sure this is the one that calls himself Tuxedo Mask?" asked the one in the dress.

"Of course I'm sure. Now lets get to work. He's going to need to know before she awakes." replied the senshi. With that they proceeded with giving him a memory as well. As before, a light blue light surrounded them.

"We should wait and see if this causes him to wake up. We need to give him a message."

"I know." and with that the two figures stood on either side of his bed, waiting paitently for him to wake up.

************* Darien's memory...

It was the last day of the Silver Millenium, the day Beryl had attacked the Moon Kingdom. He was running through the palace looking for two people, one was Princess Serenity, the other he couldn't remember, all he knew was he needed to find them both and protect them. He continued to run through the palace, until he came to the balcony. He looked out. What he saw was the destroyed gardens, and the four sailor senshi trying to fight off the enemy. He also saw that Serenity was with her mother and Luna. ~I found them, but were is she? She just has to be here somewhere, even though I don't know who I'm looking for. Wait, there she is!~ Darien ran from the balcony to get to the front steps where he saw her. As he was running in that direction, he heard a completly painful, scream. Just as he turned the corner he saw the girl he was looking for fall to the ground. "No!" he yelled.

************* (End memory)

Darien instantly woke up, his heart pounding, and in a sweat. That's when he noticed the two figures in his room. Some how, they seemed familiar to him, but yet he didn't know why. "Who are you?" he asked.

"You'll find out soon. We are here to give you a message that is of the upmost importance." replied the one in the dress. They were both in the shadows so Darien coudn't make out their faces.
