Trouble With Chibi
Chapter 7: Memories Resurface
*Author's Comments*
It's the chapter you've all been waiting for....the secret is out! As for the flashback I'm pretty sure the final battle with Galaxia was nothing like that. I'm not sure how it actually happened since I haven't watched the Stars season yet, and I only own the first book of the Stars manga, but not that it matter since this is my story.
Well anyway I don't own Sailor Moon, yadda, yadda, yadda.
--------------
"Where are we going?" Usagi asked Dr. Toukei as she reluctantly climbed off the floor and began to follow her once more.
"Up to the fifth floor to Dr. Kouhaku's office," she replied. "The machine needed for administering MRIs is quite expensive so I don't own one of my own. The doctor and I have an arrangement, so I can use his whenever I need to. Well assuming it isn't already in use, but he's usually out to lunch around this time so I'm sure it will be vacant."
"The fifth floor... You mean I have to walk out of your office and over to the elevator when I'm only wearing this!?," Usagi said.
"At least I gave you one that covers everything." Isha told her patient, "Its not like you are going outside the building. I doubt we'll run into anyone on the way."
Usagi grumbled, tightly held the back of the gown closed, and reluctantly followed the green haired woman out of the office. She then pressed her back to the wall and began to scoot down it. When she got to the end of it, she peaked around the corner making sure no one was there before making a mad dash to the elevator and failing to see the caution wet floor sign in front of her.
She hit the sign at full speed causing her to trip and land on her stomach. The blonde slid across the wet floor and slowly came to a stop just in front of the elevator, with her backside exposed. Just then the janitor walked by pushing a bucket of dirty mop water and noticed Usagi from the corner of his eye. He stopped and stared at her curiously and said, "The floor is wet," before moving on again.
Usagi suddenly jumped off the floor and closed the back of the gown with her hand. Then she quickly backed into the elevator. When the doors closed before her she let out a sigh of relief.
"I hate these stupid gowns," the pig-tailed woman mumbled under her breath. Then she began trying to burn a whole in the back of the doctor's head with her gaze as she thought, "Sure we won't run into anyone."
When they arrived on the fifth floor she stuck her head out of the elevator and did her check. Upon finding no one she ran to the nearest wall and pressed her back up against it. Slowly she began sliding down the wall toward Dr. Kouhaku's office. Usagi's guide just shook her head and gave her a look before slowing down her pace to match the pig-tailed woman's.
When they finally reached their destination it was vacant just as she had guessed it would be. The doctor loaded her patient into the machine and began her work.
About forty minutes later they were done. The process would have been much quicker if it wasn't for all of Usagi's moving. Through it all, Dr. Toukei repeatedly had to remind the blonde to remain still.
Slowly the doctor and her patient made their way back as Usagi repeated her wall sliding all the way to her office. When they finally made it all the way to the examination room she sat down and awaited the results of her MRI.
"So did this test come back normal too?" Usagi asked optimistically as she sat down on the examination table.
"Sorry, I'm afraid not," Isha said sadly.
The pig-tailed woman looked heartbroken. Her eyes began tearing up as she asked, "Then there is something wrong with me?"
The doctor had a somber expression on her face as she place her hand on Usagi's shoulder and began to say, "I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I'm afraid during your last test I noticed a rather large amount of scar tissue around your reproductive organs. I'm surprised you didn't know this already because you had to have quite an injury to cause so much damage."
"What does that mean?" Usagi asked with a quivering voice.
She was quiet for a moment before saying, in a heavy-hearted voice, "It looks like the scar tissue has blocked your fallopian tubes, but even if they were clear I think your ovaries are too badly damaged to be able to cause any eggs to come to full maturation so you can reproduce. I'm sorry to say, but you will never be able to have a child of your own. I would suggest looking into other methods, such as adoption."
Usagi didn't flinch or make a sound. She stopped breathing as the color began to drain from her face. She looked as if the doctor had just ripped her heart from her chest and crumbled it into a million pieces before her eyes.
A single tear rolled down her cheek and took a deep breath before suddenly screaming, "NO!" The blonde jumped up off the table and ran out of the building while still in her hospital gown. Then she ran into the street without looking.
A car horn startled her and she turned to look at the car that she had accidentally stepped in front of. Tears began to trickle down her face as she fell backwards onto the pavement. Her head hit the pavement with a thud, and just before she blacked out she heard someone screaming her name.
"USAGI!" a blond haired woman yelled as she opened her door and ran to the woman who was lying unconscious in front of her car.
About fifteen minutes later Mamoru was running into the emergency room. "Minako!" he said as he stepped through the doors. He looked very terrified.
The blond haired woman looked very pale and she was sitting in the waiting room with a blank stare on her face. Slowly she looked up to the man standing before her and said, "Mamoru?"
"What happened to Usagi?" Mamoru asked, his voice sounded shaky.
"I-I'm not sure," Minako told him. "One minute I was driving to your house and the next minute I see someone step out in front of my car. I couldn't stop in time so I honked the horn hoping they would move out of the way, but they didn't. I saw them fall backwards onto the street." Minako paused a second and then continued talking as wiped a tear from her cheek, "O-Once I managed to stop the car, I got out only to find Usagi lying on the pavement wearing nothing but a hospital gown."
"A hospital gown?" Mamoru asked.
"I don't know why she was dressed like that, but shortly after she landed on the pavement, a woman came out of a nearby building carrying her clothes. When she saw her lying there she went back in to call for an ambulance. I think she was a doctor because she was wearing a white coat and she came out afterwards to care for Usagi until the paramedics could arrive. I'm so sorry Mamoru," Minako said as her tears began to roll down her face once again. "I didn't mean to," she told him quietly.
"I know you would never do anything to hurt Usagi. I'm sure it wasn't your fault, Minako," Mamoru told her as he placed his hand on her shoulder in hopes of comforting her. "Do you know if she's all right?" he asked her, his voice was full of worry.
"I'm not sure. Usagi wasn't bleeding when they took her away. I hope that was a good sign." the blonde told him with a wavering voice.
"Did you hear anything from the doctors?" he asked as he frantically began to look around the emergency room in search of one.
"I had asked them about her, but they won't tell me anything," Minako sadly told him.
"Do you know where she is?" asked Mamoru nervously.
"Yes, I managed to pry Usagi's room number out of the receptionist, but they won't let me go see her," Minako said as she sighed, "I'm not family."
"Wait right here," he told her as he walked up to the receptionist. He talked with the woman for a moment and then a doctor walked over to him. Mamoru began to speak to the doctor and a few seconds later he motioned for Minako to join him. She stood up and walked across the room to him. When she got there he said, "This Dr. Kaishin. He's the doctor who was tending to Usagi."
"Is she alright?" Minako asked the doctor.
"Surprisingly yes. I'm not sure why, but apparently she fell unconscious before the car even struck her. This caused the car to roll over her body and not actually hit her. She went right between the front tires so the only injury she received was from her head hitting the pavement. She's quite lucky," Dr. Kaishin told them.
"Can we see her?" Mamoru asked sounding relieved.
"I don't see why not," replied the doctor, "She was still unconscious when I left her, but she's free to leave once she awakens."
From behind them, the receptionist cleared her throat and said, "She's free to leave once you fill out these papers. They won't take long to complete." She stood up from behind the desk and held out a clipboard with a pen attached.
Mamoru took it from her hands and began filling it out.
Meanwhile, in another part of the hospital, Usagi's eyes fluttered open. She looked around and noticed she was lying in a hospital bed. It was a bed like this when she first had heard the sad news. A tear slid down her face as she began to remember.
It was during the last battle with Galaxia that she had become injured. She remembered pain as Galaxia's attack hit her head on. She looked down to see her sailor suit turn a crimson color as blood gushed from her wound. She knew her life was at stake and the rest of the world's for she was certain Galaxia wouldn't stop until Earth was completely destroyed. She tried to ignore the pain, but she knew she wouldn't be able to do it for long. Some how, even with the sharp ache in her gut, she managed to defeat Galaxia with her next attack. That was when she lost consciousness for the pain had become unbearable. When she awoke she was lying in a hospital bed like she was now. Once they knew she had awakened the doctor had come into the room and told her the tragic news.
She would never have children of her own, or so they had said. She had hoped they were simply mistaken because if they were right this would have meant Chibi-Usa was an impossibility, but yet her daughter was still alive and well in the distant future. She saw other doctors in hopes that they would tell her something different than the first, but they never did. The pain of that had been too much for her to bear back then, as it was now. To cope she had simply blocked it from memory, but it was back now and she'd never forget it again.
Usagi saw her clothes sitting on a chair next to the bed. She stood up out of the bed and cringed. She clutched the back of her head and felt a large bump. She didn't quiet remember how she got it. She glanced over the rest of her body to see if she had further injuries only to find none. Usagi then dropped her hand and began to change into her clothes.
Once she finished changing she walked out the door and into an elevator. The doors shut completely just as the ones next to it opened up. A second later Mamoru and Minako stepped out and walked down the hall to find Usagi's room empty.
