Usagi awoke with a groan. Her head was splitting. She looked around and saw no one about. She looked at the clock and realized it was 10:34AM. Everyone had to be in class. She slowly got up and went for the bathroom only to end up having her headache worsen when she had a visitor in her mirror. Serenity was there.
"Sorry about last night. Your energy is reacting badly since you haven't chosen one of us yet." Worry was etched into
Serenity's lovely features. "Are you alright?"
Usagi blinked rapidly at the image. "Why are you doing this to me?" She asked angrily, ignoring her question. "I don't know what you mean Usagi. You're the one who's doing it to yourself by not choosing." Serenity said irritably. Usagi looked angrily at her feminine look alike and grabbed the nearest object near her and threw it at the mirror making a large crack run down it.
"That wasn't very nice." Serenity tisked slightly.
"WHY DON'T YOU GO THE FUCK AWAY? I'M HAPPY LIKE THIS!" Usagi
screamed angrily.
"Happy?" Serenity's features turned cold.
"You're not happy. You're just trying to live, and survive, and the way you're doing it is slowly killing you. Setsuna-chan is doing this to you only because you think it's what you want. She can't tell you no Usagi. She has to let YOU tell her no. You can't kill anymore Usagi. You know it. And as hard as you try to put on this rebellious attitude it's not you!"
Usagi fell to the floor. Her eyes staring blankly back at
Serenity. "You're lying to me..."
Suddenly Serenity disappeared and Usagi heard the door open and shut. Someone was home. "Usagi!"
Usagi suddenly got up and put away the shampoo bottle that she had thrown at the mirror and grabbed the aspirin bottle and quickly swallowed two and left the bathroom. "Hey Rei." Usagi said uneasily.
"Hi. How are you feeling? Haruka brought you here this morning." The raven-haired beauty asked with concern.
"I'm fine." Usagi snapped.
"Well you don't have to be rude! We've all been worried about you! Especially Haruka and Trowa!" Rei yelled, which she instantly regretted. Even though the tough girl in front of her had a huge attitude problem, she just instantly felt horrible if she were to yell at her.
"Gomen nasai Rei-chan." Usagi said softly. She was a bit surprised that Trowa had been worried about her, but she was more sorry for making Rei and everyone else worried. "I'll go and hang out in Haruka-chan's room until she gets back and apologize for worrying her... gomen nasai for making you worry as well." With that said Usagi left quickly.
As Usagi walked over to Haruka's dorm a weird feeling came over her. Why had she been so nice to Rei? She suddenly felt horrible for making everyone worry so much about her, even though it truly was Serenity's fault. She couldn't help but feel that she had caused them some sort of pain.
As Usagi neared Haruka's room she knocked softly. When she received no answer she quickly picked the lock and went in. She quickly went over to the kitchen and made a snack for Haruka as a type of apology gift. It was nothing but a simple sandwich, but she hoped it would help ease Haruka's temper, for she was sure she'd get an earful from her worried sister.
After her snack making Usagi sat down on the couch and flicked on the television. There wasn't anything on but old TV shows like Matlock. Usagi wondered why that old show was even being aired anymore since it had to be a VERY old show, but it was daytime TV so she didn't bother to wonder anymore. Daytime television always sucked.
An hour or so later Usagi was still watching daytime television when the door handle turned with a squeal. Usagi turned off the television and looked toward the door as Haruka entered. "Konnichiwa Ruka-chan." Usagi said softly.
Haruka's face smiled to see Usagi feeling better but then turned into an angry face. "Usagi! What was the meaning of all that! You had everyone worried about you! What was going on? You come in my room saying you healed Trowa and then you start glowing!"
Haruka would have kept yelling, but Usagi cut her off. "That wasn't my fault. It was Serenity's!"
Haruka suddenly was taken aback. "Serenity?" She questioned
nervously.
"Hai. I keep seeing her in my mirror, her and another Usagi. And don't you think I'm crazy, I know I'm not!" Usagi said, sure of herself. Although she wondered if she really was sane for a few seconds while she confessed about the lady's in her mirror.
Haruka licked her lips, trying to think of something to say. "I must admit, I've known about Serenity... she's visited me as well, but only to tell me about my past selves. She said once you had chosen that I would remember it all for myself but..." Haruka paused when she saw Usagi's accusing glare. "Oh Usagi, don't be such a baka! I kept it from you because she told me
to, she said I couldn't tell you until you came clean about seeing her too." Usagi rolled her eyes and Haruka continued to explain herself. "I think you should chose Serenity Usagi...
I saw the other Usagi as well, she was sweet as sugar but she didn't have much sense. Serenity has more smarts. She said if you didn't choose soon something bad would happen to you Usagi... I won't force you to choose, although I would if I thought it would work." Haruka admitted.
Usagi listened intently and then nodded. "I'll try my best to decide... I think I have to otherwise... Haruka when that light surrounded me... I felt like it was tearing me apart. It felt loving but it felt painful at the same time...I think Serenity's power was trying to make me choose,
but it couldn't because I didn't know who I wanted to choose. I don't even know why I need to choose one... it's just all so confusing." Usagi sat down clutching her head. Her mind was spinning with questions. What if, if she didn't choose she would die? Or become some sort of soul-less being? She was at a complete loss as of what to do and she knew Haruka wouldn't know any more than she would.
"I think we need to summon Serenity." Haruka said suddenly. "She could answer your questions, and if she doesn't want to I'll make her." Haruka said, smashing her fist into her palm for emphasis.
Usagi thought for a moment. "Come on, let's go back to my dorm. We'll go and see if I can call her to my mirror, that's where she always appears for me." Haruka nodded and Usagi stood up and followed Haruka to the door and out to the hallway.
As they reached Usagi's dorm room she was surprised to see Trowa about to open her door, a book in his hand. "Tro-kun?" Usagi questioned. Trowa turned toward her; if he was surprised at her presence he didn't show it. "How are you feeling?" He asked softly. "Fine now, thank you. Did you check on me often?" Trowa didn't say anything but nodded.
"Arigatou Tro-kun." Usagi said with a smile. "But
I'm afraid Haruka and I have to work on an assignment together, I went to Haruka's to pick up my homework." Trowa nodded and handed her the book and left quickly.
The two walked into the dorm room. Rei's music was playing in her room so they knew she wouldn't be a bother. They then went quickly into the bathroom and locked the door. "Serenity?" Usagi called timidly looking into her mirror and only seeing her reflection. A few minuets went by and Usagi was irritated. "This is stupid, why the hell am I asking a mirror for Serenity, she only shows up when she wants to
anyway."
"Well that was uncalled for, I heard you but it took me awhile to find a way to the mirror." Serenity said as her image began to appear.
"Gomen." Usagi said hotly, even though she wasn't very sorry.
"Ok listen up, we want answers and we want them now!" Haruka demanded.
Serenity's regal stature stiffened at Haruka's authoritive tone. "Please don't speak to me that way, I meant no harm and I wasn't keeping anything from you." Serenity said, her voice suddenly sounded strained as if she was trying to keep from getting upset.
"Gomen nasai." Haruka apologized.
"It's alright... Now what were your questions? I'll try my best to answer them for you." Serenity said with a timid smile.
"If I choose one of you, will I not be me anymore?" Usagi was afraid of what the answer would be and she turned away from the mirror as she waited for Serenity's answer.
"You will be you, but when you choose one of us you will know of your past life, like you... like you remembered something that happened to you long ago. It will be as if you and I were the same person. In a way we already are. I'm just a simple memory if you think about it. The other Usagi is also a memory, but she's a different memory. In time you may choose her as well, but for now it is best you just choose one of us. Your body does not have enough energy to choose both. But after your body becomes accustomed to the powers of the one you have chosen you can choose wither or not you want to have the other memories of the one you didn't choose." Serenity explained.
"Why do I have to have your memories? I don't understand." Usagi asked, confusion apparent in her features.
Serenity's brow furrowed for a moment as she thought and than she answered attentively. "Well... you not only get the
memories... you get the soul of the one you've chosen." Serenity licked her lips nervously. "You see Usagi... you don't have a soul." Serenity said seriously.

YAY! I updated! Took me long enough huh? If this chapter doesn't seem up to par with most of the others please forgive me, I was doped up on cough medicine while I wrote it. I hope this has satisfied everyone's thirst for more of this story though! I'll write more when my time allows it. Don't worry I haven't abandoned my writing. ^.^ Also, are there any fans who would like to give me some idea's for this? I would greatly appreciate it.
