The next day was Saturday. Ami had decided in her sleep to at least tell Rei. She went to the temple, to find Rei sweeping. "Good Morning, Rei-chan." Rei looked up from her chores.

"Good Morning, Ami-chan. Can I help you with something?" Rei asked the brain girl.

"Actually, I wanted to talk to you. Can we go inside?" Rei nodded in response, turning around and walking into the sacred temple, Ami following. Rei put her broom away, and then sat down in a chair seated next to Ami.

"What's wrong?" Rei tried to sound confident, but she was completely scared. She may look like she had no fears, but really, everything scared her. She was like a child in a blackout whose parents are nowhere to be found.

"Well, remember yesterday," Rei nodded as Ami continued. "Well, I know why couldn't bring myself to attack Beryl and Nephrite. Because . . . It ripped my heart to see Nephrite return to evil." Ami felt tears pricking here eyes as Rei tried to take in what she learned about the smart girl. She couldn't believe that Ami would love him. Especially with that temper of his.

"You love him, don't you?" Ami looked back to Rei and nodded. "Then why are you ashamed? If your heart lies with him, then go after him, don't mope around thinking we'll all hate you for loving him I mean, look at Usagi!" Ami laughed at the joke the fire mistress made. She raised and walked to the door. She turned back.

"Thank you, Rei-chan. For listening. I think I know what to do now."

"Your welcome. Anytime you need help, I'm happy to help." And with that all said and done, Ami left for home. It was dark, probably past her curfew. Good thing her mother was out of town. When she got home, she quickly went into sleep. Monday, while Ami was walking to school when Rei taped her on the shoulder. "Hey, are you okay?"

"I will be."

Rei smiled. Ami returned it and quickened her pace. After school, Ami didn't go to Crown with the rest. Instead, she went straight home and didn't go back out. "I can't go back, what if she comes back for more torment?"

A few minutes later, her TeletiaS rang. It was Makato, whom sounded frightened. "Ami-chan, a youma is attacking! He has a lot of power, more than any other one we've ever fought. Hurry!" Makato hung up. Ami flew out the door and ran to help her friends.
