Usagi And Rei A Dream Of Memories Part 1

I do not own sailor moon. A big thank you to Jupiter Nights for the ideal to this chapter.

Rei sat on the park bench just day dreaming away. The sky was clear blue not a cloud in the sky and the sun was shining. She leaned back on the bench and let her thoughts wonder up into the sky. *Usagi . . .* that name brought a warm smile onto Rei's lips. She closed her eyes and let her memories of the past take her away.

** Hikawa Temple Fall 1985**

It was the beginning of October and the Hikawa Temple was all ready cover with leaves. Seven year old Rei Hino was with her grandfather helping him racking up the fallen leaves she was wearing a miniature version of the priestess robe she wore today. It had been a month since she went to live with her grandfather and even as a seven year old Rei was a quick learner in the ways of the temple.

Rei was a very shy child and didn't make friends easily. The only friends she had were the crows that would visited the temple she would feed them pieces of bread and talk to them about her day or what she would be feeling. The crows all ways listen to her and never judged her like others have. Rei had named two of the crows Phobos and Deimos after the two moons of mars which was Rei's favorite planet.

While Rei and her grandfather were finishing up racking the leaves. A old man with a cane was walking up the steps of the temple with his cane in one hand and the small hand of a little girl in his other. He slowly made his way to the top of the steps the little girl was warring a pink dress with little bunnies on them and pink hair ribbons in her hair which was tied up in pig tails. "Hello there how can I help you two today?" Rei's grandfather asked the old man and child "Hello I am Hiro Tsukino and this is my granddaughter Usagi Tsukino we have come to pray for good luck this is Usagi's first time visiting a temple so please forgive her if she is a bit loud" Hiro said "Grandpa I'm not loud I'm just full of life" Usagi told her grandfather Hiro smiled "That you are my dear" Hiro said and patted Usagi on the head "Not many people come to the temple at this time so you can be as loud as you want little one I have a granddaughter myself Rei say hello to the Tsukino's" Rei's grandfather said to Rei who was hiding behind him this whole time. Rei poked her head out to the side of her grandfather legs and whispered a hello and hid her head back behind him once more. Usagi walked up to Rei's grandfather and looked behind him Rei saw her and moved in front of her grandfather while Usagi moved behind him. The closer Usagi got to Rei the move she would move soon there were two little girls running in a circle around Rei's grandfather "Hey you two knock it off!" Rei's grandfather yelled and grabbed the two little girls.

He set them down and Rei made a move to hide behind her grandfather once more but Usagi stopped her by grabbing her hand "Hey! Don't run away I won't bite ya "Usagi said smiling Rei blushed and looked away "Usagi we should start the prey now" Usagi's grandfather said walking up to Usagi "Ok grandpa" Usagi said she let go of Rei's hand and waved goodbye walking to the temple. Rei looked down at the hand Usagi was holding and blushed.

Some time later Usagi and her grandfather walked out of the temple and started walking to the steps. Rei and her grandfather were waiting by the steps "You two are welcome back any time" Rei's grandfather said "We will make sure to come back" Hiro said Usagi ran up to Rei and reach into the pocket of her dress and bulled out a bunny sticker and handed it to Rei "Here this will a token of are friendship" Usagi said Rei took the bunny sticker "Thank you Usagi" Rei said Usagi gave her one more smile before leaveing the temple with her grandfather.

Over the months Usagi and her grandfather came back to the temple on a daily basic. Rei and Usagi were becoming great friends. Usagi would talk and talk about anything that was on her mind and Rei would listen to every word with great interest. She had put the bunny sticker into a little jewelry box in her room. The sticker was a reminder of the happiness and warmth that Usagi always brought into Rei. "Usagi you and I will always be friends right?" asked Rei "You bet Rei you and I will be friends tell we are 100 years old" Usagi said Rei smiled and for the first time in her short life she felt truly happy.

It had been a whole week now and there was no sigh of Usagi. The last few times that Usagi and her grandfather came to visit Rei notice that he was moving slower then usually. Maybe something was wrong with him? Rei thought. She walked over to the window of her room and looked out at the night sky the moon was full but a dark cloud was moving towards it tell it was completely cover by blackness. Rei looked towards where the moon was once was "Usagi . . ." she whispered.

**Present Time**

"Hey Rei!" a voice called out Rei opened her eyes and looked towards where the voice came from Ami, Makoto, and Minako were walking towards her. Rei got up and smiled at them "Hey guys" "Hey" the three of them said together "Well lets go before we miss the previews" Rei said.
