AN: This is an Ami fanfic. The Starlights are back and so are the Generals. Worst of all Ami's closest friends have decided to play matchmaker. The inners and Seyia are trying to set her up with Taiki. Mamoru knows nothing of this and with the help of his generals (the senshi don't know they're back yet) he's trying to set her up with Zoicite. Can Ami really deal with two matchmaking enthusiasts? And who does she end up with in the end?

Gomen I know it starts out a little serious sounding. But you can bet with the inners involved and Mamoru trying his own hand at matchmaking this story won't stay that way for long. First chapter yes its serious all the way through. Second chapter though looks like its going to be very entertaining. Just read and find out.

Matchmaker Madness!

I couldn't help but sigh on my way to Rei's temple. We were going to have a study session but Usagi also wanted to tell everyone something. I really had no clue what the news was but she sounded very excited about it when she told us to meet at the temple during lunch today. Whatever it was I had a feeling it would prevent any of us from studying. Every study session was a struggle to help my friends get some work done. Even so they were fun. Of course this time everyone would actually be showing up since Usagi had something important to share with us all. Minako would never miss out on a chance to hear news, Makoto always showed up anyhow and Rei lived there so she was always there too.

"Well Usagi did say it was important so maybe one day of non study won't hurt." I thought a loud. Then again I'd just make up for it later by studying anyhow. We haven't had to worry about any danger since Galaxia was defeated almost a year ago so I've had lots of time to catch up on my studying. 

A yawn escaped my mouth just as a furry creature landed on my left shoulder. "Hey Luna." I greeted after finishing my yawn.

 "You ok?" She asked her voice filled with concern.

 "Yeah why?" I was surprised that she'd say something like that. Of course I did have a couple extra things on my mind since she'd restored all of our memories of the moon kingdom but it wasn't anything to be worried over.

 "You seem preoccupied lately that's all." She admitted.

I had just finished coming up the steps of the temple. We'd be inside for the meeting soon. But first I had to say something to Luna before going in so the others wouldn't start worrying either. "Just trying to keep up with my studies." The lie came before I could stop it. Not that I wanted to lie to Luna but having her worry over something she couldn't do anything about wouldn't have done her any good.

 "Well alright." She purred in my ear.

I opened the door to see everyone look up at me. Minako, Makoto and Rei were all there but Usagi hadn't shown up yet as far as I could tell. "Isn't Usagi suppose to be here?" I asked the group.

Minako nodded. "Yeah but she said she had to go get something before coming. We kind of thought you were her when you opened the door." She explained in her usual chirpy voice.

 "You mean you don't even know what this news is?" I asked surprised to see Minako shaking her head. She was blond that was true and she really didn't do well in school but she was far from dumb. In fact if anyone knew about anything that was happening it was Aino Minako. She had a gossip system so widely spread she probably knew what the Queen of England had for breakfast every morning. "Well I guess we'll just have to wait for her to come then. In the meantime we can all get some studying done. We do have that math exam coming up next week." I warned closing the door behind me and taking my usual seat. Luna took this opportunity to jump off my shoulder and join Artimes under a nearby table.

 "Ami.." I heard them all groan.

 "Come on Ami you know theres no way we can study. Not without our leader Usagi!" Minako stated firmly.

 "Besides we'll never be able to concentrate until we hear what this great news is." Added in Makoto.

I sighed in defeat. They weren't going to even try today. I knew this would happen. "Alright then but don't blame me when you end up cramming the night before for the test." I warned before taking out a book to read.

They all looked at me with blank stares. I know they were even if I wasn't looking at them. They always did that when I said something about studying. It didn't last long though they went into a conversation about something else soon after that.

Although I made myself appeared to be studying and I was trying to immerse myself in it to stop my mind from wandering it didn't work. I knew all these facts already and as interesting as I found them I still ended up thinking about the past. Again.

Why I keep pulling myself into the past I don't know. Most of the memories were fairly happy but I kept thinking back to the last few days on the moon before Beryl attacked. Those memories were full of nothing but pain and heartache.

 "Hello Earth to Ami. You Ok?" A voice broke me from my thoughts. I looked up to see Rei, the raven haired priestess of the temple in my face.

 "Nani?" I asked politely.

 "I said are you ok?" She asked again.

I nodded. "Of course I'm ok what makes you ask?"

 "You've been stareing at the same page of that book for over an hour. And Usagi got back nearly half an hour ago with some guests." Makoto spoke up.

Backing away from Rei I took a look around the room. To notice three other familiar looking guys there. "Gomen I was just memorizing these equations." The excuse was feeble I'll admit especially since I wasn't holding a math book. None of my friends seemed to notice that though. Or if they did they weren't letting on to it. Just in case they really didn't notice though I quickly put the book away and put my attention to the three guys. The starlights hadn't changed since I last saw them. "So why is Seyia, Taiki and Yaten dressed up like that?" I asked half curious while also using it to change the subject.

I could have sworn Taiki had smiled when I said her name but if she did it was too brief for me to catch it.

Either way it was Seyia who answered the question. "We figured we'd go back to being Idols since we're going to be staying on Earth. And since we're enrolling in Odango's school again people might freak out if they find out we're really girls."

 "See I told you I had exciting news!" Usagi exclaimed.

 "When do you start school?" Makoto asked while Minako was glaring at Usagi. Probably for being able to evade her information network with that bit of gossip. She'd make up for it though. By tomorrow morning the entire school would know about the Idols comeback.

 "Monday." Yaten replied simply.

I didn't follow the conversation after that. Every once in a while I'd nod my head acting interested or as if I were listening. After about another half hour the alarm on my watch went off. I shut it off and got up. "Ja minna." Then I was out the door. Not alone though Rei had followed me.

She made sure the door closed behind her before speaking. "Ami whats wrong?"

Darn it why was everyone asking me that question today? "Is something suppose to be wrong?"

"Come on Ami I know somethings bothering you. Today you stared at the same page of your English textbook for almost an hour then you said you'd been memorizing equations after we caught you. Not to mention you didn't pay attention to anything that was going on. You can tell us Ami. We are your friends. If something is bugging you should let us know."

I smiled cheerfully trying to show her there really wasn't anything wrong. "Rei I'm fine. There is no need for you to worry."

Rei stared at me for a few seconds. I could tell she wasn't buying it. "Alright. Ja Ne Ami." She turned and walked back inside.

I paused wondering why she had decided to let it drop. It wasn't usually like her to do that. Something had to be up. What were they planning? Too bad I actually had to be somewhere so I didn't have the time to think about it. I'd find out sooner or later anyhow. Whether I liked it or not.

******************

Rei walked back into the room. All heads turned to her each silently asking 'what happened?' "Nothing. She wouldn't tell me anything." Came the answer much to the dismay of the others.

 "What are we going to do then?" Asked Makoto.

Minako answered in an overly enthusiastic voice. "Its obvious isn't it?" Everyone gave her a blank look so she continued on. "First we follow her around and sooner or later we'll find out whats bugging her. Then we can fix it!"

Taiki and Yaten stared at Minako in disbelief. She would really do this to her friend. "I'm not going to be a part of this." Yaten commented leaving right after.

 "I think she just needs to be left alone for a while. If she wants you to know the problem she'll tell you." Taiki responded then followed after Yaten.

Seyia only grinned staying firmly in place. Once his fellow starlights had left the room he spoke. "Well that definitely got them to leave. Now we can start planning."

Usagi nodded. "Ami and Taiki are so meant to be together."

 "Too bad we had to get rid of Yaten too." Minako nearly whined.

 "Yeah but you know he'd never go alone with any of our matchmaker schemes." Seyia winked.

 "Well lets get this planned. We're going to have to be careful. This is Taiki and Ami we are talking about. They'll both kill us if they find out what we're up to." Rei warned.

The others nodded in agreement.

********************

Walking out of the library I was glad I had promised to meet some other students to help them study. It got me away from my friends who would no doubt bug me until I told them the problem. Except the atmosphere in the library felt strange today. I could have sworn there was someone in there watching me. Maybe I just imagined it to try and stop my thoughts from straying to the past.

 "Konnichiwa Ami-chan!"

I looked up startled by the voice. "Oh hi Mamoru-kun."

 "Do you have the time to talk?" He seemed serious so how could I say no. Actually I didn't say much of anything I just nodded and followed him to a bench in the park.

 "So what is it you wanted to talk to me about?" I couldn't help but feel curious.

He stayed quiet for a few moments before answering me. "Actually its about you."

I sat there a bit stunned. "I'm not quite sure I under-"

 "Don't play naïve Ami. Something has been bugging you for the past few days and don't say that's not true because I've seen you. Its like your somewhere else completely." Mamoru noted.

Why did he have to notice everything? "Well…I…. its nothing really…. I just.. just don't want to talk about it. That's all." I stuttered rather nervously. Though I really can't say why I was so nervous. The simple fact was I didn't want to talk about it. There was no problem other than the fact that everyone just wouldn't leave me alone.

 "I can understand if you don't feel like talking about it. I wish you would at least tell me whats going on though. You can't really believe its nothing, can you?" Mamoru's gaze didn't waver once. He watched Ami the entire time. Somehow being able to pull off sounding completely serious but also laid back at the same time.

 "Maybe… it might be something but its something I need to do on my own." To avoid any further questions he might ask I got up and left.

I didn't walk far though. Through the park and to a lake. I sat down near the waters edge. It was calm cool and quiet here. A nice place that always made me feel relaxed and helped me think when I was having problems. The problem I faced now though was much more complex than any I ever had before. Actually now that I think about it theres more than just one problem.

First theres my past life. I wish Luna had just left that information alone. Giving us back our memories of the moon kingdom sent me through whole new spirals of emotions. Love, betrayal, pain, death…….I've felt emotions such as them before but for some reason reliving that lifetime felt so much worse than the more recent times.

All of us had fallen for one of the Earth Princes generals. Who ended up betraying us in the end when they attacked the moon kingdom with Queen Beryl. Though now I wonder if I really ever did love Zoicite. If our love had been true shouldn't he have been able to fight the spell cast on him?

Then there was my other problem. Taiki. The first time I had heard of the Three Lights I had fallen for the craze too. Though its not my usual thing for some reason when I saw that picture of Taiki I felt drawn to the idol. It was a shock to find out that he was really a she and Sailor Star Maker as well didn't lessen that any. Even so once I had gotten over that I still found myself attracted to her.

 "Why?" I whispered into the wind.

********************

A pair of emerald green eyes watched a blue haired girl study with some friends in the library. Soon the girl left and the watcher followed. He smiled when he saw her begin talking to Mamoru. Once she had gone he took her place on the bench beside the young man. "So?" He asked.

 "Sorry Zoi. Never got around to asking her about you. It might be a touchy subject to bring up right now. She seems to be going through something." Mamoru answered.

Zoicite nodded. "Its alright. Although I'd like to be able to talk to her again this has to be done slowly. I've hurt her enough already."

"Well don't worry about it. She'll be ok it'll just take some time." Mamoru looked at his watch. "Come on we better get going or we'll be late meeting the other generals."
