Setsuna let out a deep sigh. All the girls were back together. Now, if everything went as it was supposed to, they would soon have Usagi back. In fact, if she wasn't mistaken then she would have already been reborn!

'Now all I have to do is find her in that mess of people' she thought dourly. 'This is going to take a while...'

It took the Time Guardian a year and a half to find her hime.

During that time, everything was idyllic on Earth.

Ami was now 20 and the guys a year or two older.

Rei and Quatre were dancing around each other, not sure if they did like one another or not. Both were slightly afraid to fall in love. Rei was too independent, and afraid of being hurt again. Quatre was too much a gentleman.

Heero and Minako were still dating. That wasn't a big shocker. What was, was that Relena actually left them alone.

Makoto and Trowa were engaged. She had only agreed to marry him after she had told him about her past, all the 400 some odd years of it.

He accepted it pretty well. It's not every day you fond out the love of your life is an immortal. After he told her that he still wanted to marry her even thought they wouldn't all their lives together, Makoto let loose another secret.

As for that, Rei had told everyone that if they do marry, their spouse will have the same life span as they do. So Trowa and Makoto could theoretically spend forever together.

When the other girls asked her how she knew that, Rei's eyes darkened.

"Do you remember Chad?"

The girls nodded confusion in Makoto and Ami's eyes. Minako's eyes were round in surprise and comprehension.

"You married him didn't you?" Minako squealed.

Rei smiled sadly. "Yes I did."

Makoto and Minako shot her dark looks of their own. "And why didn't you invite us?"

Rei held her hands up in a way that said 'Don't hurt me!' "We wanted a small ceremony. Blood family only."

"But you could have told us" they voiced, their voices smoldering.

Rei shook her head. "By the time we married, you both were gone."

"Oh..." they said in unison, their anger deflated.

"But that still doesn't show how you know about the immortality thing works." Ami said quietly.

Rei smiled at her blue haired friend. "We were married for 150 years, and he didn't age a single day." Rei's voice cracked a bit at the end.

Concern flooding her, Ami asked Rei what happened.

"He was killed in one of the wars."

The whole room was silent.

"Oh Rei!" They all cried, while wrapping her in a warm embrace.

"No wonder why you dance around Quatre!" Makoto whispered.

~*~*~*~*~*~*

Ami and Duo were also engaged. They were going to be married in a month and a half. He knew the entire scoop about the immortality thing.

"It'll suck outliving almost everyone else, but as long as I have you, there's no way I could ever be unhappy about that" Duo had told Ami when she told him about the immortality clause and what effects it would have.

The way Duo had proposed was genius. He had taken apart an old computer and hid the ring inside. He then called Ami over and told her that something was wrong with it and he couldn't figure out what it was.

Ami, ever inquisitive, took apart the entire thing. When she found the ring, she looked curiously over at Duo.

He then went on his knee and asked her to marry him.

Ami had flung herself at his whispering 'yes' a thousand times over in his ear.

Ami had tried to contact Setsuna to invite her to the wedding, but she was never able to get through. It was as if she wasn't there at all.

As time for Ami and Duo's wedding approached, all the girls were in a panicked mode. But the guys were like 'eh...' and let the girls do their thing.

Because of her friends, Ami didn't really have to do anything. Makoto was her Maid of Honor, with Minako and Rei as bride's maids.

Not wanting to split the couples up, Duo made Trowa his Best man, and Heero and Quatre his ushers.

The wedding dawned on a slightly cloudy. But warm and sunny day.

The wedding itself was being held at Rei's shrine. The sakura blossoms were almost at full bloom.

The only guests were those who were close friends. And they were strolling about under the trees that swayed in the wind.

Ami was in a tent on the side of the shrine, opposite of where they would be standing for the ceremony. That would be under the only willow tree in the city.

"Alright" Minako cheered. "You look absolutely GORGEOUS! Duo will be drooling like there's no tomorrow!"

Ami blushed. "Thank you again for designing the dress Mina-chan"

Ami's dress was a tight bodice of a shimmery silk with baby blue snowflakes embroidered all over it. The lower portion of the dress was pure white silk that flowed when you walked. Simplicity in it's elegance.

Minako waved the thanks off. "No prob! Now all we need is 'Something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue!"

Makoto reached into her purse. "I have the something old." She then pulled out one of Ami's old bracelets. "You left this at my house before you disappeared. I thought you'd like to have it back"

The bracelet was made of silver links with onyx stones set into each link. It was slightly tarnished with age.

Ami started to tear. Hugging Makoto she whispered to her "Thank You!"

Minako cleared her throat and announced that she had the something new. She placed the wedding veil on Ami's head.

The veil was a single layer of silken sheer fabric edged with ice like crystals.

Rei then came forward with 'Something borrowed.' She was holding a white gold necklace with a fortune cookie charm on it.

"I wore this when I married Chad, and for as long as we were together, we were happier that I could have ever imagined. I hope it brings you the same luck."

"And you're your 'Something blue'" Minako chimed. She tucked a few blue violets behind Ami's ear.

"Now" Rei instructed. "When someone asks you a question, just say 'I do'"

Ami looked at her friend oddly.

Rei laughed. "Trust me Ames! You won't hear a word of what the priest is saying! You'll be too nervous and too entranced with your husband to be to pay any attention to that!"

Ami grinned. Then it was time for the ceremony to begin.

And as Rei said, Ami didn't hear a single word the priest said. But when she heard a question being asked, she answered, "I do!" And she shared another mind blowing kiss with Duo.

Hours later, Ami was dancing around in Duo's arms, still in a daze. 'Life can't get any better than this' Ami told herself.

The throwing of the flower bouquet and the toss of the garter had resulted in Rei getting the flowers, and somehow Quatre ended up with the satin garter.

As dusk was approaching, the last guest arrived.

Setsuna appeared at the gates to the shrine holding the hand of a little girl who couldn't have been more than two years old.

Her bright gold hair was done in a very peculiar style. Two buns on top of her head. Her bright blue eyes matched both Minako's and Ami's.

Ami had been slow dancing with her new husband when Makoto poked her for her attention.

Makoto pointed to Setsuna.

Ami gasped and led Duo over to the Time Guardian. Her bridesmaids following a few steps behind.

"Setsuna! You made it!" Ami cried happily. "But who's this?"

Ami crouched down low to get a good look at the girl.

"No..." she breathed. "It can't be!"

Ami looked up at Setsuna to deny or confirm her suspicion.

Setsuna nodded slowly.

Tears started flowing down Ami's face.

Duo, thinking that something was wrong, asked her what the matter was.

Everyone near heard her answer.

"It's Usagi! She's come back!"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ami closed her picture book. 'Those were good times' she thought to herself as she glanced around her at the sky adorned with a large crystal palace.

"Time was set to rights then. Crystal Tokyo still came, and Chibi-Usa is here now."

Ami shivered in the coming twilight. Standing up she made her way back to her room and her husband.

She past Makoto and Trowa's room. They had been marries a year after she and Duo had been.

Minako and Heero's room was next. They had only been married for a few months.

Then she came to her door, which was next to Rei's. She and Quatre were now dating.

Neo Queen Serenity's room was further down the hall

'The only difference now is that Chibi-Usa had some playmates now.'

Ami giggled as she thought of her and Duo's twins. 'It was a lot of fun to make them too!'
