He haunted her dreams and her every waking moment, she tried to resist the tears that fell, but it was inevitable. The pain that was in her heart was more than she could bear for now. Luna had curled into her stomach and Chibi-Usa was sprawled against her side playing with the golden strands of her hair. Both were trying to bring comfort to their companion, as she lay broken.

Chibi-Usa watched as Usagi's eyes drifted close the exhaustion of the day finally taking its toll on the older girl. A tear slipped from her own eyes as she watched the pain that her mother's past self was going through. "Why would he do this to you, mama?" Her hand brushed her future mother's cheeks.

"Maybe you should sleep too." Luna stated as she moved towards her mistress' pillow.

"I can't sleep not with mama like this."

"She would appreciate your concern but as your mother she would much rather know you were well and safe."

"I know but I can see how it's hurting her."

"Mamoru probably did what…"

"No! It is not what is best for mama. He does not understand what he is doing to her, how it is breaking her. You were not there. You did not see how cold his eyes were or hear the lack of emotion in his voice." Chibi-Usa's tears began to fall faster as she tried to grasp the idea that at this moment in time her parents were no longer a united front. "Last night all she kept muttering about was how lifeless his blue eyes were."

"Chibi-Usa, there's nothing you can do…"

"Yes there is I can take care of mama now. If his eyes are lifeless then I will make sure that her blue eyes never lose their shine. I will not let him hurt her anymore."

Luna watched as the younger blond haired, blue-eyed girl curled in more against the young woman that would be her future mother.

Author's Note: I know that in the anime Chibi-Usa has pink hair and red eyes but I've decided to make her more closely resemble her mother. I used some creative freedom of interpretation here. So please forgive me.
