I do not hold chapters ransom for reviews, but I sure enjoy compliments, constructive criticism, and grammatical corrections. So if you feel like it, please press that little review button, and let me know what you think.

Wow, three reviews this time! Including one new reviewer! Welcome, Taeniaea! Neither you nor aserene need to wait any more. (grin) Please enjoy... A double shot! Haha, Ch. 12 & 13 were so small, I decided to be nice and upload them together.

Kali, your comment worried me a little. I didn't make Lady act TOO mature, did I? I kinda figured she's been through a lot of maturing events in her life (Black Moon Invasion, being killed by Mistress 9, falling in love with Helios, the fight at the Cauldron, my Sleeper story, etc.), so after over 900 years she can act it when she needs to. What do you all think? Even though they're written, I can still modify things in the future chapters if I've missed something.

Hope you all enjoy! - Raya

Chapter 12 – Searching

King Endymion slowly opened his eyes and looked around. The misty, pinkish world he saw made him frown with confusion. He stilled as he saw a little girl curled up against a regal looking woman a short distance away. They both appeared to be sleeping.

He stared at the pair a moment trying to puzzle out why the two seemed familiar. He finally determined that the little girl looked a little like a younger, pink version of Pallas dressed in Mideastern puff-pants. He could not figure out whom the woman looked like, but her green crown, beautiful dress, and silky cape indicated that she was someone important. His psychic senses told him that neither of them was what they appeared to be, but they did not appear to be active threats at the moment.

After several minutes, he turned his attention back to his surroundings. He sighed and ran a hand through his dark hair as he realized that there was absolutely nothing around but pink mist. 'I must be in some sort of limbo world,' he thought to himself.

Turning again to face the other two occupants of the mist, he slowly closed his eyes and sank his awareness deep into his soul. After all of the practice this past week, finding his link to Serenity was very easy. His eyes flew open as he realized that he could feel her again. She was close! Somewhere out in that befuddling mist was his precious love.

Taking a deep breath, he quickly closed his eyes again and tried to call her through their link. It wasn't a name so much as an image: an image of a beautiful, smiling, cheerful woman with long silver/gold hair and bright blue eyes. 'Love…'

Serenity raised her tear-stained face up from her hands as she heard Endymion's voice. She looked wildly around trying to find him. He had sounded so close!

Forgetting the strange, possibly dangerous voices that never seemed to hear her and the two women with her that never seemed to wake up, she cried out all of her loneliness, fear, and longing. "Mamo-chan!"

Super Sailor Saturn stared at the androgynous figure in front of her. Despite the fact that it was wearing a strange checkered outfit and a jester's hat, she knew that it was dangerous. It stared back at her unblinking. Off to one side, a woman with a high collar covering the lower part of her face watched them try to stare each other down.

'Mamo-chan!'

Super Sailor Saturn turned instinctively to find the source of that lonely, frightened cry. "Serenity-sama," she whispered. Blinking, she quickly turned back to the two people facing her, only to see that they were looking around as well.

"I do not mean you any harm," she said finally. "I did not come here willingly, and as soon as I can I will leave. But that is a friend of mine calling. I have to find her. Can you help me? Do you know where she is?"

The two figures looked at her silently then shook their heads. Super Sailor Saturn sighed softly then tried to see through the pink mist once more. When she still could not make anything out, she closed her eyes, picked a direction by instinct, and began to walk.

It didn't take very long for her to realize that the other two figures were walking with her. She gave them a curious glance, and then decided to ignore them.

'Mamo-chan!'

Super Sailor Mars woke abruptly as the cry echoed across her soul. "Usagi..."

She blinked, and reached up to rub her head. "Where am I? What happened?" Her eyes widened as she remembered being torn apart by the enemy's spell. Quickly, she ran her hands over her body and confirmed that she was in one piece.

With a sigh of relief, she turned to study the landscape around her. "Where is this place? Pink mist?" Suddenly, she remembered King Endymion and began to look around for him frantically. "Endymion-sama! Endymion-sama... Where are you?"

She stilled as she saw two figures laying a short distance away. "Endymion-sama? Serenity?" She rose and hurried over to look at them. She sagged with disappointment when she realized it was not her friends. As she looked at them a bit longer, however, her face became curious.

The elder looking figure was a woman with a hat pulled down to her nose. In fact, it looked more like a huge mask without eye holes than a hat. Her formfitting white gown emphasized her slender body, and her calf-length cape had an Egyptian flare to it.

The other figure seemed to be an elfin child with large ears and wings of flame. It wore a red-gold band around its head, like a tiara. That appeared to be all it was wearing although she didn't lift its wings to find out.

She closed her eyes and tried to sense their auras. What she felt made her eyes snap open again. She studied them again with a little more respect for a moment, and then turned to resume her search for Serenity and Endymion.

She settled herself on what appeared to be solid pink mist, and began to stretch her psychic senses to look for her friends.
