She heard the voice again, 'Close your eyes again...'
Sitting up straight on her bed she let the lids of her eyes steadily shut, a gasp abaiting her lips, "I-Its you..."
"Yes, I am here for you Princess." The white, horned horse dipped its head before her.
"Helios." She sighed tears welled up in her glistening eyes, as she dashed forward.

Second installment to my story! Thank you DarkenTears for the review!!! I want to go more into her relationship with her parents this chapter and I may be needing to change the rating by the 3rd chapter as I think about what I have in store... kekekeke
-----------------------------------------------
"I was always there my beautiful gi- no my beautiful young woman." The winged horse craned its neck down, nuzzling her cheek and whiping away the tears. "I was always there and always watching, since you ceased to call out to me I thought that it was you who had forgotten."
She looked up astonished, "Never! never, never... " Standing up she managed a soft smile, "But then, why now have you come? I mean, I am happy but... why not sooner." Her eyes were full of concern and a deep longing for the answer.
"I was... afraid, since you didn't call out to me and I thought maybe you didn't want to see me anymore." He was a bit embarrased about it, he hadn't meant to hurt her but this time away had pained him as well.
Her face glowed and she shook her head, "No, I have always waited for you so come back to me... I guess never tried reaching out to you like that... I am sorry." The Princess looked down but then her head snapped back up, more questions floating a top her brain, "So why did you decide to come see me finally? And why did you come in the pegasus form?" She asked as she gently stroked his face.
Helios seemed to almost smile, "I can sustain myself in this world for longer when I am in this body." Small Lady laughed slightly and smiled at the answer. He had answered that question first but his face seemed to take a grave appearance as well as a darker tone when he continued, "I said I have always been watching your dreams, they had been pure and gentle for a long, long time but as the last three years passed I observed your dreams becoming tormented and sorrowful... I knew something was wrong, I had to come!" His voice sounded urgent... he seemed almost afraid, possibly of the dreams he had spoken of Small Lady experiencing.
Her eyelids drooped as she looked to the ground, she could feel the sting of tears once again, the ones of her sorrow, "Yes, things haven't been good here lately... I don't understand my parents, they seem to have disregarded my happiness completely." Her voice raised a bit as memories resurfaced, before anything else could be said her eyes snapped open as there were a few quick raps at her door.
Standing she mumbled something before she walked to the door unlocking and opening it a bit too peak out into the corridor. Neo Queen Selenity stood there, her face had a sad smile on it, she could see her daughter had been crying and felt a singe of remorse in her being, she swallowed hard to fight the feeling. "May I come in?" She asked hopefully, smiling more as her daughter opened the door to allow her entry.
Princess Selenity frowned a bit, it wasn't often she talked to her mother anymore it always made her too angry and stirred up emotions she would rather leave settled inside. She watched with puffy eyes as her mother entered the chambers, slowly taking in the room, that she wasn't often permitted entance to, before going over and sitting on the large white bed. She patted a spot next to her encouraging the princess to sit, Small Lady Selenity walked over but remained standing, staring down at her mother with emotionless features.
She was hurt that her daughter refused to even sit next to her but still held hope after being let into the room, "I just wanted to talk to you... You've been so distant lately your father and I both worried over it." She said, fidgeting her fingers and looking up at the pink haired young lady, "Do you want to tell me whats wrong?"
This was almost too much to take, how could she be so blind and insensitive?! She clenched her teeth and squeezed her fists in an attmept to control her hostility but its was futile effort, the tension reached the boiling point and her emotions overflowed, "How can you not know what the problem is mother?! It's your fault I am acting this way! You engage me to some man that I don't know, and hardly have interest in... how could you?! Weren't you the one who so many years ago battled the evil that plagued the earth in the name of love and justice, teaching me the same way! There is no justice in this forced union and there most certainly is no love!!! You're a hypoctite and I don't ever want to talk to you again so leave me the hell alone and drop the concerned parent act you bitch!!!" He voice cracked as she screamed her protests and frustrations at her mother whom she had once held so much admiration and love for, now all she could feel was the resentment and pain.
The last thing she saw before she ran from the room was the look of anguish on her mothers face, fist clenched and poised in front of her lips as she trembled with the effort to battle back the tears creeping out. The Princess felt no sorrow at the scene of her mother as she madly dashed through the long passageways of the palace not caring where she went. When she stopped she found herself in the garden and just outside of a large hedgemaze which had been carefully crafted long ago. Finding a white marble bench she lie down, feeling the cool stone against her sweltering flesh, cooling her cheek and easing the tension on her brow. As she sat with eyes closed she realised she could not see Helios anymore, her voice called out 'Helios?!' hearing only the echo caused in the walls of her mind. She thought for a moment she faintly heard a responce but gave up in cold, painful defeat. She sat up and opened her eyes which clearly expressed all the jumbled feelings she felt with her downcast rbrows, among all the feelings happiness and love were absent.
Something stirred deep inside her and she was compelled to stand from the bench, "He... doesn't care. He hates me because I have changed... because I have learned to hate those I believed to be closest to me. Nobody cares for me anymore, thats why all of this is happening... do they all hate me now too? Mom... dad... the senshi? If Helios doesn't care how is it possible that they do?" She questioned aloud, her voice sad and soft, her expression showed she was almost in disbelief. "I- unh!" She reached her hands up to her forehead as she felt a twinge and a sharp pain inside like a needle being inserted into her skull, the extreme pain made her cringe and cry out before she felt her body plunging into complete and utter blackness, devoid of feeling and deprived of human acknowledgement and warmth. She ceased to move as the darkness consumed and captivated her in a protective shell.
Crimson eyes flashed open, however, they weren't the same eyes that had closed before... they held a sinister unwelcomed evil that presented itself most clearly. Her physique was still the same but her attire was dramatically different, the white wedding dress that had clung to her frame was replaced by ebony cloths that hung to her curves, a long slit revealing creamy skin up her left leg, a dark see-through mesh grazed her arms, black diamond studded collar about her neck, rasberry shawl draped across her elbows and seeming to float about her body. The once golden moon that graced her forhead had eclipsed and turned a sinister black, lovely red lips parted in a smile and a long cackle rolled delicately from her tongue.
"Come out sailor moon... you've lost your sense of love, now I will punish you." Her laugh once again rang out and chilled the air.
