Half and half time! Rei will probably remember hers, but not Jadeite. I don't own Sailor Moon and sorry for taking a long time. I've been lazy!
After arriving at her school in time for English, Rei detransformed and walked into the locker room to change back to her uniform. No one said anything as she walked across campus; maybe it was because they didn't care or maybe because she seemed to kanashii (sad) about something.
After changing, Rei walked into the English class, muttered an apology and took her seat, all while staring into space.
The teacher stared at Rei as she continued to talk. "Like I said before Hino-san interrupted us, today's lesson is…"
But Rei wasn't paying attention. She couldn't get her savior off her mind, 'If he's with the Dark Kingdom, why did he save me?.' she thought, biting her lip.
"Rei-chan, pssh…" a feminine voice whispered next to the girl.
Rei broke out of her thoughts and turned to her friend. "Hai, Mai-chan?"
"Are you okay?" the red haired girl asked, concern showing in her green eyes.
Rei was surprised by her question. "Of course I'm fine. Why do you ask?"
"Because you are totally out of it, not to mention your walking into the classroom late." Mai added.
Rei opened her mouth to answer Mai's question when the teacher came by. "Hino-san, Shidou-san, is there something you would like to share with the class?"
Rei and Mai blushed bright red as they shook their heads. "No Miya-senshi." they said in unison.
"Then how about getting started on your work?"
The girls nodded and Rei took out her workbook and attempted to work. But her thoughts kept going back to how she felt like she had met Jadeite somehow, somewhere. "But where!" she exclaimed, blushing when she realized everyone had heard her.
"Gomen…" she muttered, walking out of the classroom to clear her mind.
She walked outside and sat down on the grass, staring up at the sky. "Where would I have even met him? He's the enemy…" she tried to convince herself. "But why is it that I felt the same feeling around him as the figure in my dream…"
As she muttered this, a thought wouldn't stop bothering her. "But he seemed just as puzzled about saving me as I did." She moaned, falling down on the grass.
"Rei-senpai…?" a small voice called out.
Looking up, Rei saw Aiko, a student who she knew from the festivals she had put on. The young girl had helped her out, but she never really talked to her out of the festival.
"Aiko-san, what are you doing here?" Rei asked.
"I asked to use the bathroom, Rei-senpai. What are you doing out here?" Aiko blushed, covering her mouth. "If you do not mind me asking."
Rei smiled as her eyes raised from the blushing girl to the sky. "It is perfectly all right." Sighing, she felt her eyes glaze over. "I just needed to get some fresh air."
Aiko nodded and the two girls sat in silence until Aiko spoke up again, "Rei-senpai, why are you crying?"
Rei, confused by the girl's question, lifted her hand to her face and realized that she was indeed crying!
Wiping the tears, Rei sniffled. "It's nothing, Aiko-san. Do not worry." Rei stood up and offered her hand. "Shall we go back in?"
Aiko nodded and took Rei's hand, happily. "Of course Rei-senpai!" Aiko giggled as the two girls made their way back inside.
Meanwhile,
Jadeite was staring up at the ceiling, trying to figure out why he did what he did. "I should have let her die. One less irritation to deal with."
Sighing, he turned over and stared at the wall. "But for some reason, my heart wouldn't let me…"
Early that day,
Jadeite was walking in the hallway when he heard the end of Zoisite's and a youma's conversation.
"Gather energy if you can, but first take care of the senshi." Zoisite told it.
"Yes, sir…" the youma disappeared.
Keeping hidden, Jadeite had become curious about what Zoisite was talking about. "If he thinks he's going to kill those annoying senshi first, he has another thing coming to him…" Jadeite had muttered as he followed the youma.
The youma had led him to the portal to Earth. Shielding his eyes from the light, Jadeite began to debate whether to go or not.
Finally deciding, Jadeite entered the portal and appeared over a lake. "Hm…where would the youma be?" he thought out loud, looking around.
After ten minutes, he was about to get up when he was a flash of black in the corner of his eye. Turning, he was shocked to see one of the senshi leaping buildings.
Smirking, Jadeite was about to destroy her when he watched her miss the next building and fall, screaming.
Something in his heart had jerked and before he could do anything, he was swooping down to save her.
"Why did I feel something in my heart…?" he groaned out loud, covering his eyes.
A soft knocking was heard and Jadeite called out. "Who is it?"
"Nephrite."
"Come in."
The door opened to reveal the brown haired man walk in and shut the door. "What do you want, Nephrite?"
"What was up with you and saving that senshi brat?"
Jadeite was shocked, but attempted to hide it. "What are you talking about?"
Nephrite sat on the bed and smirked. "Don't play stupid with me. I saw you enter the portal and decided to follow you. I watched you save her." He frowned. "But why?"
Jadeite frowned as he laid back down. "Don't know. Don't care."
"If Beryl found out…" Nephrite started, but Jadeite sent him a death look.
"She won't find out cuz you won't tell her, right?" Jadeite had the look in his eyes of death.
Nephrite laughed. "Don't try to scare me, little boy." He ruffled his hair. "Don't worry. I won't. She might get on me about how I didn't stop you."
Laughing, Nephrite exited, leaving a puzzled Jadeite to attempt to sort through his thoughts.
That afternoon on Earth,
After arriving back to her classroom, Rei had said nothing, but did her work. As soon as the bell rang, Rei stood up, saying nothing to Mai or anyone else, and left.
Walking down the street, she mindlessly dodged the people, while staring into space. 'Who are you, Jadeite and what are you to me?' she asked the wind
When the wind gave no answer but the whistling sound in her ear, Rei closed her eyes.
Realizing she wouldn't get her answer staring into space, not counting the fact she was crossing the street with her eyes closed, she turned and walked to the cemetery that her mother was buried in.
Entering, Rei noticed no one was around. She mindlessly made her way to the grave of her mother and crouched.
"Hello, mother. Gomen I haven't been visiting you much. I have so much stuff going on…" She felt the tears come, but did nothing to stop them.
She curled up into the fetal position and sobbed next to her mother's gravestone. "Momma, why did you leave me? Why?" she sobbed out, tears motioning the old dirt.
She felt the wind caress her hair, but something about it seemed almost human-like. She felt a warm hand caress her hair and she cold have sworn she heard someone whisper to her soothing words.
Opening her eyes, she could have sworn she saw a figure caressing her. She could almost see the eyes, the blue eyes. The blond hair ruffled in the wind as Rei widened her eyes in shock.
The figure was Jadeite! Reaching out, Rei felt a flash of fear to be burned again, but something about this figure this time made her feel safe. Reaching out farther, Rei made contact with the wispy hand.
She felt memories hit her like a ton of bricks; a young boy with blond hair laughing at a young girl with black hair; then the same girl, kissing the same boy, just a little older; then the lake on the Moon and lastly the look on the boy's face when he glared at her.
Rei felt her eyes shoot open and she brought her hand to her mouth. "Oh my God…" She muttered, uncurling from the ball. "I remember everything. I was in love with Jadeite."
She pushed herself up. "But he's evil. What am I going to do?" Shutting her eyes, she stared up at the sky, wiping her tears. "I'm not sure, but I'll figure something out."
Determined, Rei walked off back home, not seeing the pair of eyes following her.
