~~~ Raye's Point of View ~~~
- The Next Morning -
I woke up with the worst sore neck in my life! I fell asleep on the floor next to the couch without a pillow. That spells ouch. The adults were occupying the bedrooms last night, and the rest of us were sprawled out throughout the room. On furniture, on the floor, and some ended up with limbs on other people. Serena, for instance, hand her arm across Darien's face. I, luckily, didn't have more than a foot on my arm. I couldn't even find Jed because he had the other three guys on top of him.
"SERENA! Wake up!" Mina yelled right beside her ear, but she didn't budge. "See, she'll sleep through anything."
"Almost anything. Here's breakfast." Ikuko, Serena's mom, said, carrying a platter piled with food.
"Breakfast?! I'm up." Serena bolted up on the couch, sending Mina and Darien flying.
"I smell it, but I don't see it. Zack, get your hand out from in front of my face!" Mike yelled. "Jed, come on buddy, food."
"Yeah, easy for you to say. It'll take a bulldozer to get through them."
"Hey, Serena, pass me a couple bagels, will ya?" I asked her once she got to the food.
"Here." I tossed one to Jed. "Hope you like blueberry."
"Thanks. Is that how you all eat when you're together?" he asked, then took a bite.
"No, but mornings are different from lunch and dinner. Longer span without food, I guess."
"Strange friends you have. There's something familiar about them; about you. I can't put my finger on it, but it's there."
I was staring at the ring on my finger, and I guess he noticed. "Who are you engaged to?"
I put my hand down and started to bite my bagel, but didn't. "It doesn't matter. He doesn't remember me."
"Who could forget about someone like you?"
"You could." At the confused look he gave me, I continued. "We got engaged about a thousand years ago. By now, you've probably realized that we're not your basic teenagers. We are the Sailor Scouts. Darien was known as Prince Endymion in the past. You, Zack, Mike, and Nick are his generals, guardians. Ami, Mina, and Lita fell in love with your friends, but we were the only ones beside the Prince and Princess who got engaged. You left the next day, without warning to any of us. I hadn't seen you since you went with her. I've waited a thousand years to find you."
"Wait, since I went with whom?"
"Beryl. Queen of the most evil source so far. She tricked you. Threatened my life so you would join her in the fight against us. In the end, you were the one who tried to kill me, but you couldn't. You didn't know why, but you killed yourself instead."
"And so, you've been alive for a thousand years? All of you?"
"Yes. And we've been searching for the rest of you all this time. You have to remember your past life. Everything about it, good, bad, and in between. Please." I think I gave up eating. Tears were starting to blur my vision, and I was begging now.
"How? I started to feel something last night, when we kissed, but that disappeared quickly. What else do I do?" he hung his head in defeat.
"I don't know. Your friends started remembering at a fast speed, but you haven't been able to remember even one event. I don't get it."
"Hey, Raye, you gonna eat that?" Serena popped up in my vision, her eyes on my bagel.
I handed it to her. "Knock yourself out."
"So," Jed began again, "If you're all the Sailor Scouts, which one are you?"
"Mars. Why don't you believe me?"
"Well, it is kind of strange to hear someone claim to be a Sailor Scout. But you're the first to actually have some resemblance to one. But, no, I don't believe you."
I leaned back against the couch with a smirk on my face, "So we have to prove it? Well, we have to do the same for your friends. You guys have no faith in us, do you?"
"Not really, no. In fact, I don't even know why I'm here in the first place."
"You're here because I promised to give you a kiss. That's why."
"Yeah, some kiss. But how do I know that all of what you're saying is true? For all I know, you could be making this up and acting it out or something."
"We're not making this up, young man." Luna said as she walked up to us. "I overheard your conversation. They will prove it to all of you. Just wait for the right time."
"Raye," Jed began.
"Hmm?"
"Did your cat just talk?"
"Well, she's not mine, but yeah, she can talk. Sometimes she won't shut up." I snickered at the look of fear on his face. "Relax, Jed. She's here for our training."
"And for your memories. Not even you, Raye, remember everything very well. I'm here to help all of you." She explained, and then walked away.
"Well, that's comforting." Jed commented and I smacked the back of his head.
Two Days Later...
"So let me get this straight, Beryl brainwashed me, sent me to kill you, but I couldn't? Instead, I killed myself?" Jed reviewed.
I sighed. This was just like teaching a history lesson. He wasn't remembering, I was telling him. What's wrong? "Jed, tell me what you remember."
"I told you, it was just a feeling when we kissed. It was familiar, I'll give you that, but otherwise indescribable."
'This is going nowhere fast.'
