Okay so I know that this took a really long time to get out to you all, and for that I am sorry. With my son in school now, me getting sick for three weeks-basically thought I was pregnant-sadly I'm not. I had to cope with that heart break. I had been working on this chapter for the past three weeks.
If there is any mistake I'm sorry. I promise to go and recheck it but right now, honestly this is the best that I got. Still looking for a BETA but haven't found one yet. Any who here it is, chapter 6 for Curious will be up shortly now that I have this chapter finally done.

If there is a n y t h I n g you need answered from the past chapters that hasn't been answered yet please message me let me know, so I can add it in to the chapter. I want to make sure I remember everything.
Anyway as always Enjoy.
Quotes from
Chapter 27
Military Life
A few weeks had passed since the funeral of Coronal Walker and Sgt major Tsukino.
Fallowing the burial of her father, to everyone's surprise Usagi ended her romance with boyfriend Chiba Mamoru. No one knew the reasons why the young blonde broke things off with her high school sweet heart, no one but Mamoru, Kakeru and Ty.
Sitting in his room Mamoru pulled his white polo tee over his head "Mamoru hurry up or you're going be late!" Akio yelled
"Be down in a minute" he replies. Taking one last look in the mirror Mamoru grabs his bag and heads down stairs.
Fallowing the break up Mamoru started his hospital internship, which was more of a 'job' shadowing a top doctor. Handpicked seniors with promising futures in the medical field are picked every year to shadow or intern, at the local hospital. Mamoru had hoped that he would be shadowing Ami's mother, instead he was placed in the care of Doctor Keno. Ann Mizuno reassured the young teen that Dr. Keno was a respected older doctor with a lot of experience. Mamoru trusted her words.
Walking into the older doctor's office Mamoru found a list of things for him to do,
Get two Large Lychee & Raspberry Juice, one large Carmel Coffee and three Yokan Maki also grab something for your self
Make an appointment for my wife and I at Sanuki No Sato
Pick up my dry cleaning
Get my lunch, Katsudon
Take your lunch break
Find me after Lunch; we'll go over some paper work.
He was more like an errand boy. With a breath, Mamoru started his day completing the tasks given to him. What a way to spend a beautiful Saturday

Usagi laughed as she smacked her brother upside the head "you are such a pervert!" she grabbed the magazine from his hand
"What she's hot!" he defended taking the magazine back
"Please" Usagi laughed opening the American magazine "You're an idiot"
"Why am I an idiot? Just because I think she's hot?" He looked to the magazine again "Wow she realized three albums in one year" he turned to his sister "Do you thinks you can introduce us?"
"No, absolutely not!"
"Why not?!" the English teacher whined
"One- she's a friend of my 'alter ego'"
"So"
"So? Karu-imouto I told you none of those friends knew who I really was" he rolled his eyes "and besides Serenity Jackson is dead long gone"
"Sure she is" Kakeru laughed as he looked lover his sisters outfit, "said the girl who wears $150 jumpsuit"
Usagi growled "TWO-What Asian, oriental girl whatever has blonde hair?"
Kakeru looked at his sister with raised eye brow "you?" There was no response, "so…you think you could hook a brotha up?"
"No" Usagi stood walking to seiya, who sat laughing with Ty
"Awe, come on Usa! Please"
Seiya looked up at his blonde friend "What is he whining about?"
Usagi shook her head "he wants me, or should I say the 'other' me to introduce him to Jessica Jung"
"Ooo-ooo nice"
"Awe, come on not you too?" Usagi sat down next to her step father leaning her head against his shoulder "please tell me your not into the blonde wanna be too?" her blue eyes looked into the eyes of her step father, who chuckled
"No" he shook his head "I tend to stay away from those 20 something's"
Usagi looked to her brother "see you could learn something!"
Kakeru looked offended "I'm only 20 years old! She's 21" he pointed to the girl in the magazine
"It doesn't matter, you're a teacher and there for have to date those that are older, much older"
Seiya laughed as the two siblings began to bicker "okay okay, cut it out. I think it's time to practice" he looked to the cables running off the stage "Ty set up the wires for us so we should be set"
Usagi stood as Kakeru took the magazine looking over a photo of her 'Alto Ego' where the title read 'where has Serenity Jackson gone?' Shaking his head he whispered "and to think I had a crush on her" he shivered in disgust
Since the death of her father, Usagi had spent just about every waking moment with Ty and Kakeru.
Ty treated her as if she was his own biological child, he accompanied her including Kakeru to her father's grave every day as well as her mother's…both her mothers. Ty finally had the daughter he had always wanted and Kakeru the sister he had been denied.

Dr. Keno looked over the chart of his newest patient; he was discovered a couple of weeks ago washed up on the Ogasawara shore. Found by a fisherman and brought to the hospital nearby, but due to their lack of medical equipment he was medevac to Tokyo General.
The patient suffered from a broken right leg, bruised ribs and a cut on his forehead. After a week of being in a comma the patient finally awoke, only to be diagnosed with Amnesia.
As he walked into the room Dr. Keno, an older doctor, looked into the eyes of the man who was such a mystery. "How are we doing today?" The man was quite for a moment, his deep brown eyes concentrating on what to say. "Is everything alright?" Dr. Keno asked taking a few steps closer to his patient
"I keep having the same dream" the man sounded confused, frustrated as his brown eyes meet with the doctors light green ones.
Keno raised and eye brow, forcing himself not to show his anticipation "Really, what type of dream?"
The man thought for a second, then spoke slowly "There's this little girl, she has beautiful blonde hair, curly" the image brings a smile to his face and he laughs "very curly, in two pig tails and the brightest of blue eyes, brighter than the bluest sky"
"And what are you doing?" by this time Keno had moved from in front of his patients bed, to right beside him.
"I'm reading her a bed time story…I feel like I should know who she is, she seems so important…as was the story" he rubbed the back of his head
"Do you remember the story you were reading to her?"
The man shakes his head "no" he punches his blanket, his frustration getting the better of him "God and it seemed so important, as if…as if it was her favorite, the smile that was on her face was so bright" he let out a breath "I don't even know what this all means"
With a breathe of disappointment the doctor gave a reassuring smile "Don't force yourself" He advised "Sometimes the mind makes up people, places to help us cope"
The patient shook his head "no, this isn't my mind playing tricks on me doctor, I know what I saw, what I felt was real" he took in a breath "That little girl is important to me, she means something as did the story"
"Just try and get some rest"
"I don't want to rest" the man yelled "I'm tired of resting my mind is such a blur, this little girl, she-she was so clear, as if…as if an angel pushing away the darkness…trying to help me find the light…find my way back"
"Back to what? You don't even remember who you are"
The man looked up at the doctor, his brown eyes determined "find my way back to her"
"Fine" the doctor walked to the door "just get some rest, we'll talk more in a couple of hours when it's time for your medication"
The patient nodded, thoughts still on the small blonde "you're important I know you are"
Closing the door the doctor exhaled "is everything alright Doctor?" The older man turned, a small smile on his face
"It's just this new patient Mamoru" he shook his head "He believes he's regaining his memories"
"Maybe he is what is he remembering?"
The doctor laughed "always the optimism"
Mamoru shrugged "Somebody has to be"
The doctor shook his head "I suppose so, the patient is having a recurring dream. The dream is of a small girl with blonde curly hair placed in two pig tales and bright blue eyes. He dreams that he is reading her a story, he assumes that it's her favorite, for the reason that she's showed her excitement when he read it to her." Keno rubbed the back of his head "he just seems like such a put together man. If I had to guest I would say he was in the military" the older man laughed not noticing Mamoru's pale face or the fact that the young teen was frozen still "just the way he talks, yesterday he asked to use the 'head' At first I was completely confused, he then told me it meant the bathroom…not to mention the military boots he was found in…"
Mamoru was quiet for a moment 'blond curly hair…blue eyes, favorite story? It couldn't be him…could it? Mamoru shook his head,
A five year old Mamoru crossed his legs as his mother and father talked to Kenji "I need to use the potty" there was no response, the parents were wrapped in their conversations no one noticed the little boy's potty dance or plea, no one but Kenji.
With a loud and commanding voice he asked "You need to use the head boy?"
Mamoru, being a naive five year old, pulled his hand from his private and rubbed his head, his eyes looking up at the tall military man filled with confusion and fear "my head does need to go nowhere"
Kenji let out a laugh "the bathroom son, the head means bathroom, do you need to use the bathroom?"
Mamoru smiled "that's silly papa Kenji" he shook his head "I have to use the potty"
Kenji knelt down looking Mamoru in the eye "you know when I'm out in the field or in enemy territory and I find myself needing to use the head, I find myself a bush"
"A bush?" Mamoru looked to Kenji as if he had lost his mind
"You're a man son; nature is your 'potty'"
The small child smiled brightly, then frowned "Mamma will get mad"
"Only because she's jealous she can't do what we men can do!" Kenji laughed full heartily "Now lets make a deal, I'll show you how a real solder ruffs it, if you stop calling the head a potty? Deal?"
Mamoru nodded "Deal"
Later that night a laud screamed could be heard though out Tokyo "Kenji! Did you teach my son how to pee in the bushes?!" needless to say Mamoru was grounded for a week, as for Kenji…Akio put him in his place…or so she thought.
Mamoru felt the tears in his eyes but pushed them away I was at the funeral…I saw them lower the casket into the ground…but… "The body was unrecognizable"
"What?" the doctor looked to mamoru worriedly "What body? Are you alright?"
Without a word mamoru turned around entering the patients room startling the man as the doctor fallowed behind, it was him… "What do you think you're doing?" Keno yelled, but received no response.
Mamoru ignored him speaking quickly before the doctor could say anything else "Little Woman" the two men stared at a shocked Mamoru "You were reading her Little Woman" The raven haired teen stared at the man in front of him, he was right, it was him!
The man raised his eye brow and stared at Mamoru carefully as he processed the title, soon a smile came to his face "Yes…that was it, but how did you know that?"
"The little girl in your dreams is really your daughter…Usagi, Tsukino Usagi"
"Usagi" the man whispered to himself "My daughter" her face flashed before his eyes again, a small blonde child with curly pig tales morphed into a teenager with long blonde hair and bright blue eyes "My daughter" he looked up at the doctor and Mamoru "I have a daughter" he laughed "Usagi, my little Usagi" Mamoru smiled "Bunny"
"This is amazing" Keno called for the nurses
Kenji stared at the raven haired teen; it was all becoming so clear now… "Mamoru"
The raven haired teen nodded "We thought you were dead" tears fell from his ocean blue eyes, without a second thought Mamoru rushed over embracing Kenji
Kenji Tsukino was alive.

Usagi sat down on the edge of the stage looking over the sheet music as Seiya stood with his microphone in hand; Ty and Kakeru were up on the railings checking out the lighting "how have you been holding up?"
Usagi shrugged "I'm fine" she wasn't ready to have this conversation, for the past couple of weeks since the funeral and that day at the crown, everyone has been on her case, are you fine? Are you okay? Why did you break up with mamoru?
She shook her head; things were just too complicated for her right now.
"You don't seem fine" Usagi glared at her raven haired friend "whoa, watch who your glaring at" he sat down next her "I didn't mean anything by it Buns, really."
Usagi let out a frustrated growl "I'm sorry" she placed her hands in her lap "it's just everyone's been on my case since well you know"
"Actually I don't know" Seiya looked to his friend expectedly "Why did you break up with him?"
"Because he was going to turn down Harvard" Seiya looked to her with sympathetic eyes "I couldn't let him do that…not for me" Usagi stared out at the many empty seats "it wasn't just the whole college thing, I just don't feel like I'm ready for such a serious relationship" she shook her head "my life is so complicated right now, I mean I lost both my parents, find out my mother wasn't really my mother, I have a brother and now a step father" a small smile graced her lips "don't get me wrong, I love Ty and Kakeru…these past few weeks have been amazing. They have been such a great part of my life…Kakeru had been everything a other brother can be…and Ty" she looked up at the railing where he was "he's been a great father" she turned to her friend "Mamoru was hurt…and I know he still is, but he understood…it's just so much"
"It's a lot" Seiya agreed this was more than one person could handle, he was surprised she held it together this long.
"I don't know where I'm going to be after graduation, let alone in five-ten years" she ran her hands though her hair "it isn't fair for me to hold him back, he needs to take this opportunity, he needs to go. In high school you can think you're in love; but I believe you have to know yourself completely before you can truly fall in love and be loved back by someone else."
Seiya nodded "Deep"
Usagilet out a breath, a smile on her face"but there are moments in my life that I'll always remember, not because they were important, but because he was there."
Seiya smiled leaning back on his hands "Oh, If only drama were vodka; our school would be so wasted" The two laughed full heartedly
--"Does anyone know why Mamoru asked us to meet him here?" Rei looked around the hospital
Minako rubbed her arms as she looked around a terrifying look on her face "I don't know but he better show up, I hate hospitals and their creepy doctors…why anyone would want to be one is beyond me!"
"HEY!" Ami hissed
"Have you heard of Dr. H.H. Holmes? Or how 'bout Joseph Mengele?"
"Minako you're just being ridicules!"
"No I'm not! Some doctors participate in schemes to defraud insurance companies by killing people and sharing in the death benefits. Dr. Morris Bolber organized a partnership for this type of crime in Philadelphia in the 1930s. It is estimated that he and his partners killed around fifty people before they were stopped!"
Ami rolled her eyes "What about the Doctors that do well? Those that save people every day? How about Christian Barnard, who performed the first heart transplant?"
"What about Michael Swango, who described a major fatal accident as an ultimate fantasy and also admitted how much he loved coming out of the ER with an erection, knowing he was about to tell parents that their child is dead?"
A look of disgust flashed across Ami's face, as did the rest of the group "w-well Harvey Cushing was an American neurosurgeon and the father of modern day brain surgery."
"Dr. Thomas Neill Cream poisoned four women in part for sadistic pleasure and in part to be their judge and executioner for their immoral behavior."
"How the hell do you know all of this?!" Ami yelled fist to her sides "You know nothing of people who have made a contribution in history or important facts but you remember these sick and sadistic men, who-who killed for a living?!"
"I believe you should know who's around you" Minako crossed her arms over her chest "Shell we continue or did I make my point? I hate Hospitals!"
Makoto wrapped her arms around her blonde friend, both teens shivering "its okay Minako I hate hospitals too"
"Don't tell me you buy into this nonsense?"
"Minako's right Ami, besides there's too many dead people or people close to death in their" she shivered "do you not remember down of the dead? Or night of the living dead?"
Ami rolled her eyes as Mamoru walked up from behind
"Great you guys made it" Mamoru pulled his sister by the arm "fallow me I have a surprise for all of you"
"If its big and sharp count me out" Minako whined as she was pulled by his other arm.
After riding a few elevators and passing a few rooms, the group stood in front of a closed door "Go on in girls" he pushed the door open pushing the resistant girls in
"Hello ladies" came a familiar voice, without a second thought a load scream could be heard around the hospital
"Uncle Ken!" Minako jumped up against the wall pressing herself as hard as she could against the cold surface "Oh my god he's back!!"
Makoto just as freaked out stood beside Minako "It's like Down of the dead! Quick shoot it in the head! Shoot it in the head!"
"Ladies ladies" Doctor Keno walked in smiling at the girls antics "I assure you he is just as alive as you or I"
"Yea sure, that's what it wants you to think before it attacks you!" Minako cried
"Such immature children!" Ami hissed "honestly you're just as mad as Zoi"
"How can this be? We thought you were dead?" Rei asked as she hugged her sudo father, while Makoto yelled out her warnings of death and a zombie unborn baby,
Kenji shook his head turning his eyes from the freaked out Makoto to the smiling Rei "I would have been if it wasn't for a kind fisherman"
"Where's Usagi?! She should be informed" Ami pulled her cell phone out of her pocket only to have it snatched from her hands
Mamoru shook his head "no, don't call her"
"But-"
"I want to surprise my daughter" Kenji said with a large grin as he turned to face Minako who was now standing beside him "Um… Love bug would you be so kind as to stop poking me?"
"Are you gonna eat me?" The older man shook his head "Uncle Ken!" Minako wrapped her arms around his neck "you're not a flesh eating zombie out to eat us"
Kenji laughed "No no I'm not"
"Well I'm sorry but I'm not taking any chances" everyone turned to Makoto, who wore a string of garlic and held holy water in her left hand
"Where did you get all that?" Rei asked plugging her noise
"My purse" she shrugged "you never know when you'll need it"
Kenji laughed "it's good to be home"
--Usagi grabbed her water battle gulping it down, sweat rolling down her face. "Can we take a break now?"
"Stop your whining! We can't win if your busy crying over a little sweat"
"A little sweat?!" Usagi stood up pulling her shirt away from her wet skin "I look like I fell into a pool"
"She has a point there" Kakeru handed the blonde teen a towel "not only that but she sticks too"
Usagi stuck her tongue out as she threw her now wet towel at her smirking brother
"Fine" Seiya rolled his eyes as he took a seat "baby"
Usagi sat beside him as did Kakeru and Ty "I honestly don't see what the two of you need to work on? Honesty, you both are amazing up here"
Usagi smiled at her step father "awe that's sweet of you papa Ty, but mister perfectionist will always find something wrong"
"Hey! I just want to make sure we are nothing but gold when we're performing" Seiya took a swig of his water glaring at his smiling friend
As the four relaxed, the door to the theatre opened, the four occupants turned to their new visitor only to find an all too familiar face smiling back at them "So" the voice yelled out "is this what you do with your weekends? I'm surprised you're not at the mall"
"Daddy" the blonde teen whispered, she watched as her father pushed himself in his wheel chair down the ramp. Kakeru stared in complete silence as Ty looked between the father and daughter.
"Oh my god" Seiya stood pulling Usagi with him "Oh my god"
"How…" she shook her head unable to register what was going on
Kenji stopped his wheel chair in front of the stage a large smile on his face, brown eyes watering with unreleased tears "Hello baby girl"
Usagi shook he head jumping off the stage engulfing her father in a massive hug "How are you here?!" she cried "I –I buried you"
Kenji shook his head pulling her away "You buried a comrade of mine…not me"
"But how did you get back? How long have you been back? What happened to you? Where did they find you? I mean how could the Military mistake the other guy for you?" Usagi was baffled by what was going on, she buried her father and was coming to terms' with the fact that he was never coming back and now…here he is…
"A fisher man found him washed up on one of Tokyo's beaches" Usagi looked up to find Mamoru standing behind her father along with Minako, Rei, Ami and Makoto "They medevac him to Tokyo General soon after he was found"
"I had amnesia, that is until this morning when Mamoru here cured me" Kenji looked up at the blushing teen "He's gonna make a fine doctor one day" Kenji patted Mamoru's hand that lay on his shoulder
"I…I don't know what to say" Usagi looked up at Mamoru "Thank you, for helping my dad" she felt the tears fall down her face, her father grabbed her hand squeezing it "for bring him back to me" falling to her knees she laid her head down on his lap and cried.
After calming down Usagi looked up at her brunette friend "Makoto…what is that around your neck?"
Yes, things were defiantly looking up.
PLEASE REVIEW
"Why am I not in this chapter?! What is this? It isn't fair!"
"Oh calm down Motoki, you'll be in sooner or later" Usagi shrugged "your just not as important as we are"
"that was mean Usagi-chan" Ami hissed "we're all important"
"yea!" Minako laughed "just some of us are a little more important than others"
Motoki busted out in tears
