I'm so sorry I haven't updated in…a month! Wow, that's a long time! I don't own sailor moon, or IcyHot (if that's what it's called)
It's the next day after the night time conversation with Tuxedo Mask & Serena is at the doctors, taking care of her scars.
"Tsukino, Serena?" a nurse calls out.
"Here" Serena gets up, putting down the magazine she wasn't really reading.
The nurse smiles. "Right this way." She turns & walks down a hallway with a lot of turns.
They reach a door labeled 'Dr. Anderson'. The nurse opens the door & turns to Serena. "The doctor should be in shortly. Why don't you take a seat?"
"Thank you." Serena smiles, sitting down. The nurse closes the door & leaves Serena in silence.
Serena looks around at the walls, seeing degrees & photographs of a blue-haired girl in numerous stages; elementary holding a picture up, middle standing with the principal & accepting an award &, most likely the most recent one, standing in front of the "Albert Einstein School for the Gifted", smiling.
Serena stares at these photos so intently that she doesn't hear Dr. Anderson come in.
"My pride & joy." she says, causing Serena to jump & blush.
"I'm sorry, Dr. Anderson. I was just looking." Serena apologizes.
Dr. Anderson smiles. "No need to apologize." She walks over to her desk & opens the folder she was holding. "Now, I see your normal doctor is actually Dr. Sato, but unfortunately, she is on maternity leave."
Serena nods. "I was told that you would be able to help me."
Dr. Anderson looks up & puts on her glasses. Serena takes her all in; the medium-length blue hair, the white doctor's coat with a black skirt. On her feet, she wore black heels. "Well, it all depends on what you want me to do."
Serena sits on the bed type thing in doctor's offices & turns her back on Dr. Anderson. Taking a deep breath, she lifts her shirt. She hears Dr. Anderson gasp.
"My goodness, dear! What happened?" She stands up & walks over, lightly touching the scars, causing Serena to wince slightly. "I'm sorry."
Serena pulls down her shirt & turns. "It's a long story. Basically my cat went a tad crazy on me when I was holding the cat nip." she lied, not really wanting to explain the real story.
Dr. Anderson stared at her. "I've never seen a cat that can do that."
"My cat's a little different." Serena grinned, half-heartedly.
Dr. Anderson nods. "I see." She walks over to her desk & opens it. "First, we need to clean those cuts."
Serena watches as she takes out a huge bottle of peroxide. "Can I get some sleeping gas for this part?" she half-heartedly jokes.
Dr. Anderson grabs a couple of cotton balls & turns. "This will sting at first, but if you make it past this part, you'll be fine for the rest."
20 minutes later & a lot of screaming from Serena, she is sitting on her stomach, back exposed, to Dr. Anderson caressing hands.
"Doesn't that feel better?" she asks, smiling.
Serena, wiping away tears, nods. "Yeah. You give good massages." She put her head down & closed her eyes.
Serena opens her eyes & is in the fog again. Letting out a groan, she stands up & looks down to see herself wearing the long white dress!
"Whoa!" she exclaims, spinning around in it & eventually falling on her ass. "Ow…" she moans, getting up.
"Dear princess." Serena turns & sees Tuxedo Mask standing in front of her, kneeling.
"Um…" Serena bits her lip, thinking of something to say. A thought pops in her head, & trying her hardest to sound royal, says. "Tuxedo Mask, you must find the Crystal." To her surprise, it came out exactly like her previous dream.
"Of course. Then we can be together again." Tuxedo Mask gets up & begins to walk over.
Serena feels her heart begin to beat extremely fast, but something tells her not to run. She watches as Tuxedo Mask comes closer & closer until he's right in front of her. She looks up to see his mask & reaches to take it off, when…
"Serena? Serena?" Dr. Anderson shakes the sleeping girl.
"Wha?" Serena wakes up in a start. Still sort of out of it, she looks around & realizes she's in the office. Turning to see Dr. Anderson worried face, she attempts a smile. "Sorry, must have nodded off. Didn't get much sleep last night."
Dr. Anderson nods. "OK." Turning to the medicine cabinet, she takes out a couple tubes of IcyHot. "Now rub this on every night & every morning to help lower the chance of blistering."
Serena nods, taking the tubes. "If you have any questions, don't hesitate to call me." Dr. Anderson goes on.
Serena smiles. "Thank you." She shakes her head & collects her things.
"Mother?" a voice calls out from the door.
Serena looks up to see the girl from the photos standing in the doorway, holding a lot of books.
"Yes, dear?" Dr. Anderson looks up.
The girl looks at Serena & Serena feels a sense of recognition about her. She shakes it off though & turns to Dr. Anderson. "Thank you for helping me. I would say I hope to see you soon, but since that would mean I'm doing worse, I won't say that." Serena laughs & the blue haired girl looks at her, strangely.
"OK, dear." Dr. Anderson smiles. Turning to the girl, she says. "Amy, can you show Serena out?"
Amy nods & turns. Serena waves goodbye one last time & follows Amy. They walk in silence for a few moments, then Serena clears her throat. "So, Dr. Anderson's your mother?"
Amy nods, not saying a word. Serena bits her lip, thinking of what else to say to break the awkward silence. "Um…she's cool. I'm here for my cuts on my back."
Amy nods again, not saying a word once more. Serena watches her, then decides to try one more time. "What school do you go to?"
"Albert Einstein School for the Gifted." Amy finally speaks, causing Serena to smile.
"Ahh, so you do talk." she jokes, but Amy doesn't answer.
The two girls reach the end of the hallway & Amy stops. Serena frowns, but decides to try once last last time. "Well, my name's Serena Tsukino & it was nice meeting you Amy Anderson." She walks out of the doctor's office, unaware of Amy smiling after her.
"Goodbye for now, Serena Tsukino. I'll be seeing you soon." Just as she finished this, a beeping noise went off & Amy ran out the other door.
Oooo…what could be going on! Review & you'll find out.
