Keep on smiling…

Don't let anyone know what's wrong…

Everyone knew that out of the elements Water always destroyed Fire but it seemed that in this realm normal rules such as those of nature didn't apply. No matter how many buckets of water rained down from the sky onto the burning skyscraper the flames would not diminish. With tired eyes Usagi locked her vision onto the building finding it both haunting and enchanting at the same time. The only thing that the blonde was thankful for was that the onslaught of pounding rain had served to muffle the screams rising up from the city streets.

Slipping her fingers through the holes in the chain link fence Usagi grasped the metal while looking onto the city below. Time held no meaning as she sat there completely memorized by the dancing flames and it wasn't until the water collected on the rooftop was at ankle level did she snap out of her trance. Diverting her vision to the ground she noticed very quickly that instead of draining like the rain water usually did it stayed unmoving, flooding the rooftop.

'Why,' Usagi mentally questioned as she collected as much water as she possibly could by cupping her hands together. Raising her hands up so that she could throw the water through the holes of the fence Usagi was astonished to find instead of the usual chain link fence staring back at her a brick wall had taken its place. 'What?' Her inner voice screamed meanwhile letting the water fall back to the ground.

'What's going on here?' Eyeing the roof's exit Usagi stood up and quickly ran towards the door crashing into it. Palming the knob she tried turning it but found that it wouldn't budge, 'Locked?' Her inner voice questioned, her eyes widening in fright.

"Silly rabbit, you need a key to open that," A strange child-like voice penetrated her eardrums but when Usagi turned in all directions she found no one in sight.

"Who's there?" Usagi called out but was met with no response. Diverting her eyes to the water panic began to rise up within her once she took in that the water had dramatically risen to knee level. "Where's the key?" She shouted the tremor in her voice unmistakable.

Laughter resounded off the brick walls but the body it belonged to was still nowhere to be seen. "She really asked where the key was." The voice continued to chuckled as it spoke, "Aw, looks like she's going to drown in her own tears, isn't that sad?"

'Tears?' Usagi mentally questioned.

"You're crying," Artemis stated quite bluntly just as the very skies themselves opened up sending a downpour of dark water towards the Earth.

'Of course,' Usagi's eyes shifted skywards. 'According to Artemis these are my tears which means I can stop them at any point.'

Heavy black tears fell down Usagi's face and as she watched her expression in mirror carefully she noted the track stains they left on her once perfect porcelain features. "It's ok," She lied to her reflection while whipping her face with the back of her hand.

"Everything will be fine as long as you smile," She lied once again.

"No one will know if you smile."

Closing her eyes Usagi let out a sigh pushing away her painful memories before opening her eyes and smiling her beautiful counterfeit smile.

Staring back at her through the other side of the looking glass a tall ebony haired man with sapphire eyes frowned. "No, it won't be ok if you continue to lie to yourself like that."

Closing her eyes Usagi let out a breath before reopening and titling her head back allowing the blacken rain to splash on face. "It's ok," She informed the sky while smiling brightly. "It will all be fine," She continued to lie.

Relief spread throughout the young girl's body when she noticed the rain decent beginning to slow its pace before completely coming to a halt, raindrops handing in mid-air.

"You stopped the tears," The voice commented in astonishment before giggling. "And here I thought you'd drown."

When Usagi opened her mouth to retort the raindrops as well as the water piled up on the ground suddenly flew back up into the air as if they were being suck up by a vacuum. "What the?"

Childish giggles were once again heard, "Since you were able to stop the rain a reward is in order, don't cha think? My treat!" The voice exclaimed as two spotlights shinned directly above what Usagi recognized to be the make-shift bed that she had used earlier in the day.

At this point Usagi had figured it was better not to argue with the voice and simply walked over to her surprisingly dry bed. Under the duo of spotlights sat a pack of cigarettes and a bottle of beer. Instead of their usual bran name logos she noted that they had been blanked out with only bold inscriptions painted in the middle.

Drink me, was written across the beer bottle's label.

Smoke me, the cigarettes read.

Going against her better judgment and frankly because she had no better alterative she took a hold of the surprisingly cold beer bottle, its contents swirling around inside at the sudden movement. Using her now stained black uniform top to uncap the bottle she brought it up to her wet lips.

Suddenly Usagi's blue eyes widened as she released the bottle from her grasp letting it crash onto the ground. Coughing she spit up the contents in her mouth fully noting that as soon as the liquid had touched her tongue did it turn into sand. Using the sleeve of her uniform Usagi whipped off her tongue while trying not to gag.

"Aw, that wasn't very nice, huh?" The voice stated and one could almost hear the smile in their voice. "Why not try the second option; it may contain a way for you to leave the room."

Glaring down at the pack Usagi rudely snatched them unconsciously almost breaking the box as she enclosed her fist around it. Ripping off the plastic covering she tossed it at the wall not bother to pack it before she practically tore off the top. Using her nails she randomly picked a cigarette, pulling it out of the pack.

The first thing that the young blonde noticed was that just like the kanji filled cigarettes Sumire had given her this one too had a phrase written on its side. Curiosity getting the better of her Usagi flipped it on it side so to better read its inscription.

The Moon Princess is dead; she took a sword and pieced it through her heart.

"Moon Princess?" Usagi thought aloud before taking out another cigarette and reading its inscription.

The Moon Princess became a living corpse, reborn to live a life of sorrow and bad dreams.

"Who's this Moon Princess?" Usagi questioned the voice but received no response. 'Smoke me, huh.' Taking a hold of the lighter laying underneath the spotlight she brought the filter up to the mouth, holding it between her lips before lighting the tip. The young girl tried her best to suppress her urge to cough and bear with the ordeal but right as she was about to remove it from her lips the end suddenly lit up like a firecracker.

Panicking Usagi quickly removed it from her lips and tossed it across the rooftop watching it explode with a loud bang.

Tightening her tiny hands into fists Usagi body to tremble with unsuppressed rage. "That's it!" She yelled into the darkness. "I'm not listening to you anymore and you will tell me where the key is!"

The voice whistled, "Finally, an emotion other than sadness and self pity."

"Palla-palla," A husky voice was suddenly heard causing Usagi's anger to fade, her eyebrows shooting up at the sound. "What are you doing?"

"Playing with my dollhouse," Palla-palla responded cheerfully and only a second past before a loud shriek was heard coming from the second voice.

"That's Serenity!" The voice yelled. "What have you done to her?"

"We were just playing Jun-jun," Palla-palla stated with a shrug of her shoulders.

"Change her back!" Jun-jun demanded while striking her the back of the head with her fist. Snapping her fingers together Usagi found that everything around her was suddenly shrinking. "What's going on," She questioned feeling herself becoming dizzy, her limbs in dangerous approximation with the brick walls. Right as her limbs were about to burst through the walls darkness overtook the small blonde and she fainted.

Jun-jun clicked her tongue against the roof of her mouth as she watched their future Queen destroying Palla-palla's once dollhouse as she grew to her regular size. Turning towards her blue haired girl standing at her side she crossed her arms over her chest, "Endymion is going to kick your ass."
