Mamoru was currently in one of the weirdest situations in his life. Currently he was seated inside a crashed and almost sunk in vehicle, trying to help the woman trapped inside the vehicle give birth, while receiving instructions from a paramedic who was just not loud enough over the Clamp beside him. The other four where helping the other two cars that were involved in the collision. Initially when they ran out of the Arcade and towards the accident they had believed that Usagi was inside the taxi that had received twice the impact, they had broken through police and rushed towards the car, they could hear screaming from inside but could not see the woman's face. They worked alongside the police and firefighters for about thirty minutes trying to figure out how to get her out, when one of the officers asked her for her name she replied Serena.
Shock and relief coursed through all of them as they realized Usagi was not inside that vehicle but even with Usagi not being the one trapped they continued to help out. Ten minutes later she decided to announce that "Oh by the way I'm nine months Pregnant and I think I just went into labor." The panicked frenzy that began after that somehow got Mamoru to find his way inside of the car and try to help this woman because the paramedic was too overweight to do it himself.
So there he sat, almost an hour later. The first thirty minutes were spent trying to figure out who was in car, the next thirty were spent somewhere between crawling into the car and helping this woman named Serena give birth, so far he was stuck telling her to push and breath as the crown of the child's head could be seen. It was clearly a weird situation, he continued to help this woman none the less telling her to push and breathe. In the back of his mind he wondered if something else had happened to Usagi seeing as Chibi-Usa completely disappeared before him, was Usagi hurt somewhere, was she in need of his help somewhere while he sat around doing this.
"Mamoru!" Rei called as she approached the car clearly confused with why he was inside the car and more confused still by watching him help someone give birth. "What are you-Have you called Usagi?"
"Really Rei! Are you not seeing what I'm doing?" He barked back while trying not to startling the woman before him.
"You should let Ami do that." She yelled, Mamoru turned around and glared at her. The sound of the drill from the clamp was so loud that he had to yell back at her.
"Did you happen to forget I'm studying to be a doctor too?" A rather perplexed look crossed her face…that's right; Mamoru was going to be a doctor too. "Why don't you call her?" He yelled back, the woman suddenly screamed and she pushed again, pushing the child further out of the womb and further into the world. Rei had a rather disturbed look on her face…how could anyone do it, it was just heavy, bloody stuff. She took out her phone and called Usagi…..No answer. She tried again…..Still no answer. Rei called several times but it simply rang and went to voicemail.
"She's no-Wow." Rei said in somewhat of a traumatized amazement as she watched along with Mamoru a child being born into the world, its body covered in blood the umbilical cord still attached. "Wow…" She whispered a little more softly, she smiled when a cry was heard from the small child. Mamoru held the boy in his hands, he never thought something could feel so precious and warm in his hands, never something so valuable had been placed in his hands….would this be the only time he would be able to hold a newborn child?
The officers managed the cut and pull off the car door on Mamoru's side and safely take the woman and her child out, the paramedic finally being able to do his job as he began to tend to the woman and her baby. Serena looked at Mamoru and smiled. "Thank you." She said weakly as the gurney that carried her was taken away and into the Ambulance. Mamoru stood before the four girls covered in blood from the birth giving and the small scratches he received when he crawled through the broken windshield and into the car, not to mention some dirt on his shirt from trying to help open the doors and such, yet still in all his mess he stood before them completely proud and terrified. Proud that he just helped someone come into this world. Terrified because his child and the woman he loved could still be in danger.
"Still can't get a hold of her?" Minako asked as she felt still antsy and nervous. Rei shook her head, Usagi wasn't answering her phone and they had no idea what could possibly be wrong with her.
"Let's look in all the normal places she would be at." Ami suggested. "Rei and I will go to the temple, Minako and Makoto should head towards her parents home, and Mamoru should visit her apartment. If she's not in these places we should start a larger scale search." They all agreed and ran off in their respective directions.

The loud and abrupt sound of someone's panicked pounding on her door woke Usagi up. She was startled and disoriented; she opened her eyes and looked into the sleeping face of Chibi-Usa who was lying next to her. The knocking continued, fiercely and rapidly. Usagi turned slightly and look at the clock on her night table it was close to midnight. She sat up slowly not wanting to wake her daughter up. They had only been asleep for an hour and she had a feeling Chibi-Usa was more exhausted than she was.
Usagi got up and rubbed her face, nonchalantly she passed her hands through her impossibly long blond hair which was now loose and free. She took hold of a small hair clip and pulled a small bit back, keeping it from her eyes as she finally got up and walked out of her room, closing the door gently so to not wake the girl. She made her way quickly to the door wondering who in the world would be bothering her this time of night.
She tightly hugged the thin robe she had grabbed before leaving her room, around her body, trying to keep the warmth from leaving her. She turned on the light and peeked through the seeing hole at her door the sight she saw made her heart stop and freeze in her chest. She flung the door to her apartment opened without as much as a second thought. Mamoru stood before her, covered in dirt and blood….so much blood. His white shirt was soaked as were his hands, they were covered in dry blood, there were small smudges on his face not to mentions minor cuts and a heck of a lot of dirt, but the blood was what had her heart jumping to her throat.
His eyes stared at her in some kind of relieved fear she had never seen before. He didn't move as tears began to fall from his eyes and immediately Usagi began to fear for the worst. Was someone dead? Did they go into battle and someone die without her noticing, why was he covered in blood? why did he look so terrified. What the heck was going on? She moved forward, her hand reaching out to touch him and he with such sudden speed she didn't even know he possessed, dragged her into an impossibly tight hug, crying.
She didn't know what to do. She stood still for a moment before wrapping her arms around him and hugging him back. He cried into her shoulder and pulled her body closer, his cries were soft but they broke her heart. She began to shush him, gently caressing his hair as she tried to calm him down, it seemed like forever but he finally calmed down enough that she was able to pull away just slightly and look into his eyes.
"What happened?" She asked cupping his face, gently wiping the tears from his eyes; they left trails in the wake of the dirt. His deep ocean blue eyes stared into her clear crystal blue ones. Then without warning he kissed her. A slow and painful kiss which momentarily caught her off guard but that she welcomed gently, it was the first kissed they had shared in a little over two months. He pulled away and pressed his forehead to hers. "Mamoru…What happened." She asked softly, pulling away to look into his eyes once more.
"A lot happened." He said his grip on her loosened some and she finally managed to pull out of his embrace. She managed to drag him into her apartment and sit him down on the couch. She rushed into the bathroom got a few wet towels for him before returning to where he was, he was in a rather pensive position. His elbows rested on his knees as he leaned forward, his face in his hands. What in the world had happened? She took a seat at the edge of the coffee table before him, when she reached out he suddenly took her hands. "Are you hurt?" He asked her completely confusing her.
"Wha-No…I'm fi-I'm fine." She replied softly, she watched him exhale.
"You're both alright?" He asked, his eyes looked at her with a sudden worry which made her heart skip a beat. Both…he meant her and their baby. She nodded quickly and he exhaled, letting out a breathe he had not realized he held in. "I'm not hurt." He said suddenly answering one of the questions he knew she was going to ask. "I helped a woman trapped in a car after a nasty collision, give birth." Usagi nodded. "The cuts are from the broken window when I crawled into the car." His voice began to crack and he looked down. What did that have to do with her? His shoulders trembled and he began to cry once again.
"I thought you were in that cab Usagi." He said finally looking at her, his eyes streamed hot tears and his eyes showed pain. He had tried to rescue that woman, probably at first thinking she was her. She gasped softly and reached out to cup his face.
"Are you stupid?" she asked in a soft playful voice. "I never got into that cab."
"I can see that." He shot back, feeling a little bit better as her stupid and beautiful grin crossed her face.
"What did making you a father suddenly make you more self aware of me?" She mocked; he stared at her gently, though there was some sarcasm there.
"I'm always aware of you." He replied, she scoffed and stood up.
"You've avoided me for two months. Whatever happened to doing whatever it took to win?" she looked down at him with her mock confidence; she crossed her arms and cocked an eyebrow. "Was that just words?" Mamoru looked away and sighed, a rather troubled expression crossed her face. "They were just words?" she asked in disbelief, he wouldn't dare hurt her as bad twice….would he?
"I didn't know how to fight back." He admitted. "You hate me, you found someone you liked, someone you wanted." He whispered softly looking down defeated, she scoffed at him a little peeved.
"You really are stupid aren't you?" She growled stomping into the kitchen feeling herself fume. Mamoru stood from the couch and followed her into the kitchen, leave it to him to unintentionally start a fight when all he wanted to do was hold her.
"Usagi, you looked happy…you looked like you were in love." He said as he entered her kitchen, she was leaning against the kitchen counter trying to cool her head off. Had he not noticed at all that the man she loved was him, the one she wanted was him? "I mean you must have loved him, you got with him so quickly, you looked happy. You must have wanted to be with him."
"I wanted to be with you!" She shot back not realizing the words that came out of her mouth until it was too late. She bit her tongue at his shocked expression, closing her eyes. "I mean…" she reached to the clip on her hair frustrated and released her hair, running her fingers frantically through her hair.
"You love me." He stated simply. She shook her head. She wanted to shout yes but he didn't know she remembered so she simply shook her head, feeling her heart racing wildly. "You want me." He said again taking a step closer and she took a step back. "You love me."
"No!" She argued she was all flustered she didn't know what to say. "Emotional attachment?" she suggested, moving back as he prowled towards her until her back unexpectedly hit the wall. He towered over her, being as he was ridiculously tall, his scent surrounded her and clouded her thoughts. "No." she whispered. His hand cupped her face forcing her to look at him; already she felt her knees get weak.
"You want me." He whispered leaning down to place a soft kiss on her eyes.
"No." she whispered, but her body reacted differently leaning closer to him as he began to trail kisses around her face.
"You love me." He said his heart was swelling in joy; he could laugh at her failed attempt at rejecting him.
"No." she replied but she felt her entire but burn up, his very touch had her blazing from her head to her toes. He leaned in close to that his lips were inches away from hers; she could feel his breathe on her face.
"But I love you." He said looking into her eyes, there was love there he saw it love and fear. He closed the distance that was left between their lips and sold his life away to her. Her hands were suddenly around his neck brining him closer as the kiss deepened, their mouths parted and they began to dance with each other, slowly, longingly, like so many times before. He pressed her small frame tightly but gently against his. How he had missed her lips. He ran his fingers through her soft and long locks, loving the feel of them against his fingers. When finally they pulled away from some air, she had to put her hands in front of her to force him to keep what little distance she had from him.
"You're taking advantage of me again." She said, he smirked at her and she could do nothing but stared at him. God it was impossible not to love him, impossible not to want him. "Yes." She said softly, her hand touched his face, tracing his features. "I Love you." She admitted watching a smile form on her lips. "But…I don't know, I look at you and I feel angry and hurt." She replied. He sighed and looked down; he had hurt her after all. "You're Endymion?" She asked him, he looked up and nodded. "Then I know I love you…so much. But I don't want too…"
"Give me a chance" He said desperately, looking into her eyes frantically. Tears began to fall from her eyes, did he honestly want a real chance to start over or was it that he didn't want to lose his comfort zone?
"I don't know."
"Please." He begged. "Please, let me show you how much I love you, let…let me make it right." She looked away from him and held back the tears; she shook her head an unsure look in her eyes. "Please…Please." He nearly broke down at how long it was taking her to decide.
"I don't know." She replied softly, a soft sob escaped him and it truly broke her heart. Did he really want a second chance with her? "I guess we can try a little bit." She replied, his head shot up so quickly that it startled her a little, hope glimmered in his eyes.
"So yeah?" he asked hesitantly. She inhaled before nodding. He pulled her into a hug, holding her gently his racing heart calming down some, anxiety slowly left his body.
"Mamoru" she said, he replied with a muffled 'what', she grinned to herself. "You need to change because you smell and look disgusting." She heard him chuckle softly he pulled away and looked at her. "I'm completely grossed out by you, you smell weird."
"I just helped a woman give birth." He protest but she crossed her arms. He put his hands up in defeat and walked out from between the small space she was in, he followed her as they made their way to her room.
"You need to be quiet, Chibi-Usa is sleeping." Her words made him stop abruptly in his tracks; she turned to look at him to find a rather troubled expression on his face. "Mamoru?" He looked at the wooden door that lead to her bedroom with a rather odd confused and pained expression that really had Usagi wondering what was going on.
"She's in there?" He asked quietly, Usagi nodded not moving from her spot. "She's okay?" Usagi nodded again, she turned her body towards him but remained rooted to her spot a few feet away from him. Silence fill the room for a few moments, neither one of them moved and then without a warning Mamoru quickly ran past her and opened the door to her bedroom flicking on the light, The bright and brilliant blue glow that was coming from the room terrified him to no end.
The lights to the room shone brightly as they were given life with the small switch, they brightened the dark room, their brilliance disturbing the young girls sleep on the large bed, the glow that Mamoru had seen had disappeared. Her eyes winced and she shifted in the bed, opening her eyes as the brilliance seemed to penetrate the darkness of her eyelids. Her dark Sapphire eyes stared groggily in the direction of the door, confused and disoriented but above all annoyed with the fact that someone turned on the light. She sat up and scratched her head while yawning, her eyes opting to remain semi-opened.
"Mom?" She asked confused, wondering why the lights were on. Mamoru moved towards her falling to his knees at the edge of the bed, burring his face in his hands as he began to weep. His actions scared both Usagi and Chibi-Usa who quickly found their way towards him. Usagi fell to her knees beside him and Chibi-Usa race to the edge of the bed, reaching out to gently touch her father. "Dad…" she said softly, worried for the man who was now completely broken before her.
His hand reached out and grabbed her hand, lifting his body up slightly he brought his child into his arms, still crying. Usagi simply watched unsure as to why the sight of her brought such tears to his eyes, what had happened that brought him to this state from the moment she left the arcade until now? When Mamoru finally let go of Chibi-Usa he looked at her. "You disappeared." He said softly earning a rather intrigued and confused look from Usagi.
"Yeah Sorry." Was Usagi the only one who was feeling left out?
"You just faded." Yeah apparently she was the only left out of whatever was going on between these two individuals.
"Yeah blame mom for that one." Whoa! Wait! What? Why was she being blamed, what the heck did she do now? Usagi cleared her throat wore an irritated and confused expression.
"Why are we blaming me again?" She asked looking at both at them with a face that made Chibi-Usa grin like an idiot. Her daughter gave her a look which made Usagi think back to what happened shortly after she received Chibi-Usa's hug. Chibi-Usa made sure almost immediately that she made Usagi know that she knew that she had regained all of her memories which completely shocked Usagi but she brushed it off, she also said she wouldn't be telling anyone anything. When Usagi asked her how she got to her house before she did, Chibi-Usa explained that the necklace around her neck that was shaped like a crescent Moon was a small piece from the Silver Moon Crystal and a piece of another Crystal she refused to mention, but according to what she said that necklace could tell when Usagi was in so much pain that she could not bare it, that the sadness would eat her and consume her. The necklace had the power to teleport her to the exact place where Usagi would be or was at so that the sadness could be relieved, Usagi asked if it only worked for her and Chibi-Usa said no. That all three of them in her future had one necklace, each Necklace connected Herself, Usagi and Mamoru, that way they would always know when one or the other was in so much pain they needed comforting.
Usagi sat silently, her eyes darting to Chibi-Usa's necklace. In effect her necklace was shining a dim blue, which Usagi assumed was for Mamoru. She also figured that the brighter the shine the further away or the sadder the person was or became. By the looks of it Mamoru's pain had lessened quiet a lot since the light of her necklace was quickly dying out. Usagi looked at her daughter and smiled.
"Yeah my fault." She whispered softly and looking down. Usagi quickly explained to the confused Mamoru the power of Chibi-Usa's necklace, explaining that the pain she had been earlier must have set off the necklace, however; she failed to mention the cause of her pain had been the returning of her memories and Mamoru seemed to fill that gap with thinking it was the idea of having the child of a man she had thought was playing with her, but he assumed now that pain and fear had gone away some. After a little while he turned to Chibi-Usa a little confused.
"What other crystal?" Chibi-Usa turned her head and closed her mouth, absolutely refusing under any circumstances to speak of it. Usagi pat Mamoru on the back.
"Good Luck with that one, I already tried. She's sealed shut about that one." She grunted as she pushed herself off the ground, Mamoru stared at Chibi-Usa a second before standing up. He turned to Usagi and smiled.
"I'm going to go take that shower." Usagi nodded, he gave her a goofy smile. "Can you call the girls? They must be having a heart attack." Usagi smiled and watched as he dragged his body to the shower. Usagi reached down to the night table and opened her phone, she nearly died from the shock as it said she had over two hundred missed calls, all the calls coming from Minako, Rei, Makoto, Ami and Mamoru, there were also several voice mails that she knew would all be filled with frantic worry. She wondered for a moment why she didn't hear the phone and then remembered she put it on silent…duh.
Usagi quickly called Rei, the phone didn't even get a chance to ring before Rei picked up. She was frantic and damn near hysterical at first, but Usagi managed to calm her down as well as explain the Chibi-Usa situation which calmed the woman down further, she told Rei she'd see all of them tomorrow and to pass the message along after a few moments Usagi finally hung up. The shower was still running and she assumed that Mamoru was really letting the water soak him through, he probably needed it.
Chibi-Usa yawned and knocked out by the edge of the bed, not caring that she could use more space on the bed, finding that she was particularly comfortable exactly where she was. Usagi covered her with the blanket, she had dozed off so quickly that it was adorable. Usagi touched her belly and sighed, there was a small and invisible bump on her stomach which Usagi had mistaken earlier in the month as her gaining a little bit of weight, within the next few weeks she would begin to show a lot more and inside her the girl that slept before her, would grow into a child. She would be so beautiful. Usagi crouched down and ran her hand gently over Chibi-Usa's face, gently tracing her daughter's features, she was perfect.
"I love you." She whispered softly as she admired her daughter's face, she still looked like a child with traces of womanhood that was so quickly descending upon her. Smiling she sighed, standing up as Mamoru's footsteps began to come from the bathroom. She turned and looked at him, drying his hair wearing sweats which she was not supposed to know belonged to him and assume belonged to someone else. He was wearing a grey wife beater, his eyes looked at her and she saw in them tenderness, she also saw fatigue. She watched him for a moment, silently studying him. He too was perfect. She reached out her hand once he placed the towel down and he took it.
She turned off the light and quietly led him to her bed, guiding him in the darkness. They got beneath the covers and lay down. Both facing Chibi-Usa, Mamoru wrapped his arms around Usagi's waist and rested her face in the base of her neck, their daughter chose that time to turn and roll towards them, falling perfectly into Usagi and his embrace, her sleeping face looking at them. Usagi watched her even in the darkness, she felt so perfectly content being in Mamoru's arms while she held their daughter. Mamoru had fallen asleep almost immediately and she followed in the steps of her daughter and Prince soon after.

Okay so here is this chapter. I just noticed I have the odd pattern of answering one question and then leaving behind something that prompts a new question _ I didn't even notice that until now but oh well I guess it gives the story a little mystery. Enjoy this chapter and please Review!
