Chapter 1 - A troubled heart

Amara sat up breathing heavily while sweat glistened on her forehead. She had been having the same dreams over and over again in like forever, and they were slowly driving her insane. She was back on the Moon with the other senshi, on the night that Beryl along with her 4 generals attacked and destroyed the centre of the Silver Alliance and the rest of the Silver Millennium. But that wasn't the reason she was so affected by the dreams. In fact, she didn't even know why they affected her like they did. She had wondered many times if her dreams were a premonition of the future.

Amara turned to look at the clock on her night table. 2:43 A.M the digitals read. She let out a sigh, forgetting about trying to go back to sleep. Quietly she got up and wrapped her rope around herself quietly, not wanting to wake Michelle and the others, and made her way down the kitchen to make some nice warm coffee. Amara sat down while the coffee machine made small noises and soon slipping into dream land once more…

Dream…

She stood in the gardens of the Uranus Palace, dressed in a flowering dark blue gown. Normally she would completely disagree to dress like this, but ever since the prince of the Starlight kingdom stepped into her life she had been of another opinion. Princess Haruka of Uranus had changed so much over the last 6 months. She had changed from being a regular tomboy, thought she still dressed as such, did boyish things, etc, into being a lot more girlish, all because of him. Though she was still denying that she loved him, everyone could see that she loved him dearly. And every time he was gone she would be sad and depressed. The first time he left, princess Haruka didn't even want to get out of bed, claiming that she was sick. When the princesses of Neptune, Saturn and Pluto had come to see her, Michelle had teased her with that she was sick; Love sick. Haruka had been shocked and totally dismissed the though of her being in love with someone.

"Good evening, princess." A voice said behind her.

Haruka turned around to see the Starlight Prince, "Good evening, my lord." She said, blushing slightly.

They stood there for a long time, looking at each other not saying any thing. He walked closer up to her and bent down slowly, kissing her softly.

End dream…

Amara sat straight up and looked around, blinking a few times.

"Good morning, sleepy head." Michelle's voice rang in her ears.

"Good morning." Amara said, yawning.

"Nightmares?" Michelle said, more as a statement rather then a question, while placing a cup of coffee in front of Amara.

Amara only nodded and took a sip of her coffee. She didn't fell like wanting to talk about her nightmares.

Michelle looked at her in concern. Whenever the senshi were having the same dreams more the once it usually meant that something was about to happened.

Later that day, Amara and Michelle met up with the other girls at Raye's temple for a senshi meeting. 3 new senshi had... well sort of 'joined' the senshi team. They were called the Sailor Starlight's and were looking for their own princess.

"You're late, thingy." Seiya Kou said to Amara as she, Michelle, Hotaru and Trista entered the room where the other girls, Serena, Mina, Amy, Raye, Lita, Rini and ChibiChibi, and 4 guys, Seiya, Yaten Taiki and Darien, was sitting and studying or at least trying to. Much to everyone's shock, Amara didn't answer him. She just looked at him, her face showing sadness. Now Michelle knew that something was seriously wrong. Ever since Seiya had been flirting with her, Amara and Seiya had hated- and yelled at each other constantly, each of them having their own reasons for doing so. Amara just sat down.

"We're going to have this meeting inside," Raye said.

The meeting continued on as usually. Well almost, since Amara and Seiya weren't fighting, everything seemed so… different. Amara glances occasionally at Seiya. She was starting to confuse herself by doing this and couldn't understand why the feeling of emptiness had disappeared when she saw him.

'Why am I behaving like this!?' her mind screamed, 'I can't have fallen for Seiya Kou, of ALL people.' She mentally dismissed the thought love as being totally obscure and insane, but she was more doubtful then she had ever been about anything.

After the meeting ended, the senshi parted going their different ways. The only one not getting up immediately was Amara. She looked after the others as they left the temple grounds, heading towards the park. Raye, since she had to grab her jacked and keys first before leaving, stopped and looked at Amara.

"Amara, are you alright?" She asked worriedly. There was a moment of silence, while Amara though of what to answer. "No, Raye... Not really." Amara said quietly.

"Want to talk about it?" Raye asked, sitting down in front of her.

"No... I mean yes... I don't know what I mean right now." Amara said. Raye looked at her, now even more worried then before. This was definitely not the tough and self confident senshi of Uranus that she had known for the past year.

"Have you been having those dreams again?" Raye asked.

Amara looked shocked, "How... how do you know?"

"I have been talking to Michelle. She's worried about you. She says that you don't sleep so much at night and that you're often sitting in the kitchen in the morning, sleeping." Raye said.

"Yes, I have." Amara said. "They are driving me slowly crazy. Every time I wake up I feel empty, like a part of me have just died, as if I have lost the love of my life. But the dream won't let me see what he looks like, only that we love each other dearly.

Raye looked at her sadly, "The dream won't tell you anything at all?" She said, more as a statement then a question.

Amara nodded. "The only thing I know is his name."

"Which is...?" Raye asked.

"The Starlight Knight." Amara said, with a thought full look on her face.

"The STARLIGHT Knight??" Raye repeated shocked, staring wide eyed at Amara.

"I know what you are thinking, Raye. But I don't think they have anything to do with it." Amara said firmly.

"I have an idea." Raye said. "Let's ask the fire about him?"

"Do you think it will tell us anything?"

"I don't know, but it's worth a try." Raye said, smiling encouragingly.

Amara nodded and smiled back as they walked into the fire room and sat down in front of the sacred fire.

A little short, I know. I'll try to make the next chapter longer. R n R.
