Raye and Amara walked into the fire room and sat down in front of the sacred fire.

"Now, I want you to concentrate on the past." Raye said. Amara nodded and gave a sigh, as Raye began her chanting. It didn't take long for images to appear in the fire.

Amara saw herself as princess Uranus. She was dancing with a young man. He had long dark hair but could not make out his face. She watched herself look into his eyes as they continued to dance the night away. The thought delighted her. It was obvious to Amara that she was in love with the man that she was dancing with, and hated the fact that she could not see his face. Amara now longed to be with him even more. Ever since the dreams started, this was the most that she had seen of him. She looked again, to see princess Uranus and the man kiss each other.

The images changed. Princess Uranus was standing in front of the Moon Palace, along with the rest of the Princesses. Debris and bodies of fallen soldiers lay all over the place. Beryl's forces were ruthlessly destroying everything in sight.

"Well, well, well, if it isn't the little moon princess and her friends." Queen Beryl's voice mocked. "I told you that your kingdom would fall, didn't I?" The Moon Princess took a few steps back as the 4 generals appeared behind the Dark queen. "Kill those pathetic princesses!" Beryl yelled. The generals smirked evilly and drew their swords, ready to kill. Holding their swords out, they sent a killing blow against the princesses. Kunzite broke into an evil laughter, clearly satisfied with the outcome. The princesses were dead.

The images slowly died. Raye opened her eyes, blinking a few times and looked at Amara, who had tears shimmering in her eyes.

"Why? Why wont the fire tell who he is!?" She cried.

"I don't know, Amara. Maybe it's not time for you to know. I remember when I asked the fire to tell us about the Death busters and who the messiah of silence was. It only gave me vague pictures."

"But this is beyond cruelty!" Amara said, drying her eyes. "I hate this! I am turning into a good damn waterfall."

Raye looked at her in sympathy. She though back to all those many times Serena had been crying tears over Darien, when he was turned evil and he had broken up with her.

"I know Amara. I wish there was something I could do. But if the fire won't tell us anything then..." She stopped. Of course, Setsuna and the time gates, but then again maybe not. Setsuna wouldn't tell them anything at all, especially since it might have an impact on the future and its course.

The other senshi, totally unaware of Amara's heart trouble, had met up again in the park for an afternoon talk. They had agreed to keep an eye out for anything suspicious. Rini and Serena were, naturally, almost robbing the ice cream parlour.

"Serena, you need to ease off on the ice cream. You'll just get stomach pain." Ami said. Serena didn't pay any attention to what Ami said.

"You might as well give it up Ami," Lita said. "You know how the moons are when it comes to eating."

The others laughed, while Serena and Rini looked up from their ice sundae, looking a bit offended by their words.

"We are not that bad." Both of them said in unison.

"Yes you are." Mina said laughing.

"By the way, has anyone seen Raye or Amara." Michelle asked, worry evident in her voice.

"I think Amara-farther wanted to talk with Raye about something." Hotaru said.

"Oh, ok." Michelle said. She was still very worried about her cousins' nightmares and hoped that they would stop soon.

Back at the temple, Amara and Raye had asked the fire once more, if it knew anything about Amara's dreams. It did, but this time it wasn't about the past.

All the senshi stood in front of a man dresses in black with a hood over his head. His face was white as that of a ghost and he had the ugliest and evil looking youma's with him Raye and Amara had ever seen. But the senshi weren't alone. Two men, dressed in armour stood next to them looking at the enemy in front of them, each holding a huge sword, one had a star on the top of the handle, the other had sign of Saturn. Amara saw herself as Sailor Uranus wrap her arms around the dark blue armoured knight's arm, clinging to him for dear life. It was obvious that he and the other knight had something in mind that she didn't want him to do. The knights turned towards Uranus and Saturn, and began to speak. The two senshi looked at them with terry eyes.

The images started to fade again. 'NOOOOOOOO. NOT AGAIN!!' Amara cried inside her mind.

"What in the world was that all about!?" Raye asked as she opened her eyes, looking at Amara. But Amara couldn't answer. Something about the black dressed figure seemed awfully familiar and most disturbing. Raye got up to go and make something warm for them to drink.

It was almost dark when Amara walked home from the temple. She and Raye had given up on finding out what her knight looked like. They had tried to ask the fire for a third time, if it knew anything about who the knight was and if it knew anything at all about Amara's dreams. The answers had been almost the same.

Amara let out a sight as she walked through the park in the newly fallen snow that packed everything in a thick white blanket. She shivered and wrapped her arms around herself, trying to hold out the cold. There hadn't been snow when she had left home this morning and the news hadn't said anything about that it should snow.

Hope you like this one.
