Amy sat with the Outers around Trista's small coffee table astonished, "So you killed Kiloth? All by yourselves? How?" "You know we're more powerful than you guys." "But I didn't think you were that powerful!" Amy exclaimed. "Well we didn't exactly do it alone." Michelle said. "Michelle!" Amara elbowed her in the arm. "You mean you had help?" Amy asked. "Yes and no." Trista slowly said. "What do you mean? Who helped you?" Amy demanded. "I did." A velvety voice came from the other room. "And who are you?" Amy demanded once again. "So demanding Amy. You haven't changed a bit." Cosmos said stepping out into the light. "Sailor Cosmos! I didn't realize. I should have known." Amy said dumfounded. "No I don't think you would have figured it out if you tried. You see I put a cloaking device on my energy signal. I didn't really want anyone except the Outers to know I was here. My presence here may change the future. And I do not want that to happen." Cosmos said taking a seat. "So you came back to help us?" Amy asked hopeful now that she had met Cosmos. "Not exactly. I came back to save my past self," Cosmos said pausing, "but I fear I am too late. I can feel her slipping away." "But I just saw Serena an hour ago. She's fine. She's still in a coma but she's fine." Amy swore.

Darien sat in Serena's room his hand resting in his hands. "She was just awake five minutes ago!" he exclaimed. The nurse gently placed her hand on his shoulder. "These things can fluctuate very much. Although it is rare that someone comes out of a coma then straight back in. But I'm sure she'll be fine or she wouldn't have woken up." The nurse said trying to reassure Darien. "I hope so." He said softly looking at Serena's sleeping face. He fingered her wedding ring, which the hospital had given to him when they took it off, then placed it back on her finger. He got up and went out to the pay phones in the hall. Picking up the receiver he placed two quarters in the slot and dialed Amy's cell phone.

"Come on Amy!" I shouted running up the beach to Amy, "You need to have some fun instead of studying all the time!" I took the book out of Amy's hand and tossed it to the ground. "Let's go!" I shouted grabbing her hand and pulling her down to the water. "Wow it's cold!" Amy cried when she stepped into the water. "I would never have expected the beach to have cold water." "Oh come on Amy stop with the book worm comments and have some fun!" Lita called from a float. "Yeah! Come play water polo with us!" Mina called. Amy and Serena went over to the group, who taught Amy how to play water polo.

Amy looked at her cell phone. "That's weird." She absently said aloud. "What is?" Michelle asked. "It's the hospital." She said answering, "Hello. Darien? What. but how did that. ok I'm on my way." She said hanging up. Turning to the Outers she simply said, "I have to go. Serena's health is in trouble." The Outers got up to follow, "We're coming too." Trista said pulling on her coat.

Darien was sitting by Serena's side again when Amy and the Outers arrived. He looked up when they walked into the room. "Amy," he said getting up and hugging her, "I'm so sorry. I just wanted to blame someone, and you were there. I'm sorry." "It's okay. I know how you feel. But I feel as though it is my fault, at least a little." Amy added softly. "How's Serena?" "Well she woke up about an hour ago, then about fifteen minutes later she took a nap and she hasn't woken." He got up and pointed to the screen monitoring Serena's heart. "That screen tells if she's in a coma or just sleeping. If it's a blue line, which it is, she's in a coma. But if the line is red she's fine. At least that's what the nurse told me." Darien said worried. "I'm sure she'll be fine Darien." Michelle said sympathetically. "I hope so." Darien whispered stroking Serena's hair. "If I ever lost her." he said stopping mid-sentence. "I know." Michelle said patting his back.
