SUMMARY: Usagi Tsukino has been sick for quite a while and now she only has a few months to live. What'll she tell everyone when the symptoms start to kick in? When she can't deny the fact that she is dying anymore?

CHAPTER FIVE: The Mysterious Voices

Mamoru sat in his chair and watched Usagi sleeping peacefully, hooked up to many machines. The constant beeping of the heart monitor was starting to annoy Mamoru and if that didn't help monitor Usagi, he'd rip it out.

"Usagi, why didn't you tell me?" Mamoru felt as if he wanted to cry as he spoke these words to a sleeping Usagi.

The door to Usagi's private room was thrown open and Dr. Suzuki walked in with two or three medical students, all of them held large folders and charts.

"Mr. . . . Chiba?" Dr. Suzuki asked.

"Yes, that is me," Mamoru stood up and shook her hand.

"Yes, well, visiting hours are over and I am afraid I have to ask you to leave," Dr. Suzuki said promptly, heading over to Usagi's bedside.

"B-but, what if she wakes up?" Mamoru protested. He was most definitely not going to leave his love to fend for herself.

"We shall take great care of her like we have done in the past," Dr. Suzuki reassured him, quite annoyed that he was still there. She checked Usagi's pulse, heartbeat, and everything else she normally did and hoped Mamoru would leave quietly.

"Well, I do have a question," Mamoru said.

"Ask away," Dr. Suzuki sighed.

"Is it normal to be hearing voices in your head when you have HFD?"

"No, why do you ask?" Dr. Suzuki said plainly.

"Because Usagi is hearing voices in her head," Mamoru informed the doctor.

"Well, it may be from stress or – Mr. Chiba, please will you leave?" Dr. Suzuki groaned.

"Fine. Have a nice evening," Mamoru huffed. He did not like this doctor and he really didn't want to leave Usagi in her care and obviously Dr. Suzuki sensed this because he was inching towards the door very slowly.

"She will be fine in my care!" Dr. Suzuki said, insulted.

"Goodbye," Mamoru sighed.

"Setsuna, do you see anything?" Haruka asked Setsuna urgently.

"Well . . . yes, of course," Setsuna replied.

"What do you see?" Rei inquired sharply, receiving a glare from Setsuna.

All of the sailor senshi, inner senshi and outer senshi, were gathered at Rei's temple to see if they could figure out anything about Usagi. After looking into the fire and seeing blurred visions of evil, Rei came up with the idea to ask Setsuna to look into the future and see how much of it was altered, due to Usagi's disease.

"Th-this is quite shocking," Setsuna gasped.

"What is it?" Minako asked kindly, trying to shut Rei up from saying anything ruder.

"The future hasn't changed."

The senshi suddenly became silent and nothing was heard from any of them. Perhaps Setsuna looked into the wrong future. The future had to have changed! With a deadly disease like HFD, Usagi would definitely die within the next few months.

"Are you . . . are you completely sure?" Michiru spoke up.

"Yes, I am. Do you doubt me? I have, after all, been guardian of the gates of time for many millenniums."

"N-no, but it isn't possible for the future to be the same if Usagi is going to die!" Makoto shouted.

"Maybe she isn't going to die," Ami said wisely.

All the senshi stopped arguing to look at her weirdly. Ami chuckled before adding, "It's a thought!"

"Well, I wouldn't mind if that thought was true," Haruka smiled weakly.

"Me too," Michiru agreed.

"Would you mind if you go back, and uh, question people a bit, Setsuna?" Minako asked.

"Minako, this is against the laws of time!" Setsuna reminded Minako, and the other senshi as she gave them all a look.

"Not even for your future queen and king and for the sake of their daughter!" Minako pleaded.

"Oh – all right, but you owe me Minako!" Setsuna said before she teleported into the future. Minako had a pleased look on her face and gave everyone the victory sign as they continued talking about all the possibilities and outcomes of Usagi's HFD.

"We're back Princess Serenity," the same maniacal voice cackled in Usagi's head.

"No. Go back! Get out of my head!" Usagi shouted firmly, though her voice did crack with fear.

"Oh, no. We aren't going back until we get what we want!" another insane voice told her.

"GO AWAY!"

"Poor pampered Princess," one of the two voices giggled.

"If only you could see us. Then you could've gotten your stupid senshi to fight us," the other voice chuckled.

"I don't have to see you to fight you!"

"On the contrary . . . you do."

"NO!"

"You see, Princess. Your dumb friends don't know what will happen and neither do you. But, I guess it wouldn't hurt to tell you of our plan. Now would it?" the first voice offered.

"Tell me! Like I even care."

"Oh, but you should care! Now that the whole world thinks that you have HFD – when the time comes, we shall take you and go. No one will know because they'll think you're six feet below," one of the voices said crudely.

"Not if I tell them!"

"Who are they going to believe? Insane Usagi who has voices in her head telling her what will happen or test results that never fail?"

"Not much to go on if you narrow it down to crazy against facts," the voice said hysterically.

"No! NO! NO!" Usagi screamed as she struggled to wake up. She wanted to wake up even if it were in the cold white hospital rooms. All she wanted was to get away from those idiotic voices. "You're not real . . ." Usagi said, not knowing whether she was telling them or herself.

"Actually . . . we're quite real."

"So, we bid you adieu until next time," and with that Usagi woke up with sweat dripping down and her fists clutching her hospital bed sheets.
