The light dimmed leaving the occupants of the nowhere space blinking. After all, receiving new memories, or rather memories that you forgot, is quite disconcerting. Darien was the first one to snap out of the stupor. "And why may I ask did you feel that it was necessary to keep this a secret from us? Didn't you think we could handle it? We are not little children that can't handle a little bit of bad news." He said rather irritated.

"Darien!" Serena scolded totally taken back by his attitude.

"What? Don't you think it was our right to deal with his disappearance in our own way?"

"I'm not going to have this conversation with you right now. I want to know how and why you all are here. I would also like to know where here is." Serena stated effectively ending that line of the conversation.

"That's my girl, always getting to the point." King Vegeta announced to no one in particular.

"Well for your first question we are inside your subconscious. And to answer your second question…" Queen serenity started. "During the battle with Galaxia she tried to use your friends as a means to beat you into submission. When she did that you, or rather your subconscious, made a plea. Do you remember what that plea was?"

"Yes. It was that everything turns out ok no matter what I had to do." Serena answered quietly.

"Well the silver crystal heard you and answered it. After their initial 'deaths' the silver crystal absorbed their essences to be restored later. Now that you know this you need to wake up so you can go meet everyone again." Queen Serenity explained with a soft smile.

Everything around her faded and Serena found herself fighting to keep their images in focus. As the light from the dream world faded and disappeared it was replaced with the light from the afternoon light coming in from the window by her bed.

Next to her was a nosily beeping monitor as well as the form of her sleeping brother. She gently prodded him and he started awake.

"Awake huh?" He said yawning and stretching out.

"Duh, how long was I out?" She asked as she brushed the sleep from her eyes.

"About a week." He answered sitting back in his chair. "Now I have something to ask you but I don't want you to freak out. Can you do that for me?" He asked seriously.

"I can try but no promises." Serena answered sitting back on the now angled bed.

"Off the top of your head is there any reason someone's hair and eyes would change color?" He said waiting for the shit to hit the fan.

"Not that I can think of. Whose hair are we talking about?" She asked sitting up a little straighter.

"Well…." He stalled.

"Vegeta!"

"Well you look a little different." He said simply sliding further away from the bed as she bolted from it and to the nearest mirror.

"OMG! What the hell! Vegeta if you had anything to do with this I swear that castration is in your future!" She yelled as she looked in the mirror. Her once blonde hair was now a sparkly silver color with deep purple streaks and her once blue eyes had also taken on a silver color. She whirled on Vegeta with anger burning in her eyes. "HOW COULD YOU!"

"What why is it always me you accuse of these sort of things?" He asked standing up and backing away from his sister whose head was nearly on fire.

"Because it's always you! That time you cut my hair and dyed it blue. That time you drew that mustache on my face when I was sleeping. That other time you spiked my tea with those sleeping pills and then dyed my hair green. Tell me Vegeta, what do you have against my hair? Are you that jealous cuz it doesn't stand on end all the time?" She shouted still making her way to her brother.

"Hey it wasn't me. Don't you think I would be taking credit if this was me? I mean come on; this was a pretty sweet trick."

"Well…"

"See you know that I have a point. Now I'm sure that if we think about this calmly and rationally we can figure this out. What have you done differently in the last week and a half?" He asked calmly.

"Think about that question Vegeta." Serena said looking sternly at him. "I've done a shit ton of different things." She said in a calm voice…too calm. Then the lights seemed to come on upstairs. "I bet it's because of my use of the silver crystal. Mom had silver hair and eyes. I think I heard something about how this can happen when you use it a lot." She sighed. "Oh well, what's done is done and I'm hungry. Let's go get something to eat." She said switching gears and heading toward the door.

"Wait." He called to her. "I've got one more question."

Serena turned around to face him. "Well this one was a doozy might as well tack another one on the board. Go ahead."

"Do you know someone named Andrew?"

"Yeah I knew someone named Andrew back home. Why?" She said interested in the way this conversation was going but anxious to get out of the hospital wing.

"When you came through the portal this guy named Andrew also came through claiming to know you." He said handing Serena a set of clothes for her to change into.

"Really? Where is he?" She asked accepting the clothes and going behind the changing screen to change.

"Detention room 6 on the second floor." He told her as she ran out from behind the screen fully clothed. "How come you can't change that fast when we're going out?"

"Oh shut up." She told him as she bolted out the door, ran down the hall, jumped down the stairs and landed outside of detention room 6. (They are just sooooo rich they have detention rooms. Leave me alone….I'm tired.
