Yaten looked around the apartment. Here she was again. WIth a deep sigh she went back to unpacking her clothes and then her eye caught a picture. The picture that had brought her back to find some peace from these feelings. Usagi was hugging her with a twinkle in those blue eyes that had captured Yaten's heart. But what she was going to do about it was still up in the air...
"Mamo-chan died Mama. He died! And while I will always miss him my heart is still whole. Why is that? I loved him!" cried Usagi sobbing into Ikuko's blouse.
"But were you ever IN love with the boy baby?" Ikuko asked smoothing her daughter's long blonde locks.
"No I wasn't Mama... He needed me to be and I wasn't...does that make me a horrible person?" Usagi asked, her voice muffled by her mother's blouse.
"No dear, it makes you human."
Michiru looked at Haruka with tear filled eyes, "I just can't love you anymore. You hurt me Ruka! I know you love another. I know it! SO I am leaving you. I am going to someone who does love me like I deserve to be loved."
Haruka closed her eyes and grimaced, "Maybe it is best this way. I will always treasure the memories Michi. If you ever need me, I will always be here to help you."
Michiru's eyes grew wide and tears spilled out down her cheeks, "So this is it? You are just going to let me go? Fine! And Burn in hell Ten'oh! Our princess will never love you!" and with that the door slammed behind her.
Haruka opened her eyes, "Never say never Michi...Never say never..."
Usagi sat in her window stroking Luna's fur, trying to feel more that sorrow for a friend over Mamo-chan's death. It just wasn't happening. Her friends knew she hadn't been in love. She looked at a photo of her and her now dead boyfriend and saw what everyone else had seen. While the man had been head over heels in love.... the lady wasn't. She heaved a deep sigh.
"I thought this had been written in the stars Luna. I thought you said this was my great true love. If it was shouldn't my heart be devastated and not relieved?"
"It was supposed to be. But fate is fickle and you can create your own destiny Usagi." The cat said with a sad purr.
Rei sighed deeply in front of the sacred flame. Her meditations were done for the night. Her prayers uttered and her offerings given. The flame dance in front of her unseeing eyes. The events of the past days rolled through her mind.
Mamoru dying in battle. Ironically not in defense of his love. Usagi trying to deal with her loss, and realizing what everyone else had seen months before – she was not IN love with him, she just simply loved him. But wasn't that better than what Rei had? All Alone except for her grandfather? The emptiness of her life swelled in those dark moments of night. Her life as a Senshi was full. Her friends more than she ever could have hoped for. But she needed the love of another. That special love that comes along once in a lifetime... Maybe she would always be alone...
Yaten was sipping her tea and eyeing her new apartment. Well, she was all unpacked and ready to tackle her demons head on. Or Usagi. Whichever she came across first. Sighing she picked up the paper and gasped once she hit the community breakdowns page...Mamoru Chiba was dead? Oh kami no!!! Her princess must be devastated!Haruka Ten'oh sped around the track. Michiru's words echoing in her head. She was wrong. She and Usa had a connection! She just had to show her that is was doable now. That is was the way things were meant to end up this time around. But first things first, get rid of all this anger and then time to get her girl. After she has time to mourn of course... She would prove that she could get the girl of her dreams... If for no other reason than she needed Usagi more than anyone else....
