"Serenity…Serenity." Go away… "Serenity…open your eyes…hey…" Let me sleep. I don't want to think "Meatball head if you don't wake up now or soon, I am never talking to you again!" a voice said finally as her eyes snapped open, meatball head? No one called her that anymore

"Who the hell-" she began to yell as her eyes widened and tears began to fill the blue depths. "M-Mamo-chan?" she breathed…he was here…he was alive…how? When? Why? "You're-" she began as he smiled softly shaking his head at her

"No…I'm not…nice to see you after so long though my little meatball head…I missed seeing you, and talking to you…even if you couldn't hold an intelligent conversation with me." He teased gently as Usagi burst into tears making him start and quickly gather her into his embrace "Hey…come on…you know I was only kidding right?" he asked as Usagi clung tightly to him

"Mamo-chan…I missed you so much…I'm so sorry…I should have made you stay,…It's my fault that you…you…" she whispered the man smiling gently as he soothed her

"Hey now…do I look angry that you didn't make me stay…sure…I wasn't happy that I died…" he sighed as he gathered her into his lap and sat looking over the scenery she hadn't noticed yet, the old moon kingdom gardens. "But…I don't blame you for anything…it was my choice you little fool…I wanted to go help, even against the warnings I was given it was my own fault I ended up leaving you…I only regret that it hurt you so much that I had to go when I did, that we never got to be together." Mamoru comforted as Usagi let her blue eyes wander to meet his own, still crying as he tried to wipe the tears from her cheeks, but they refused to stop

"I'm so sorry…I though…I felt…but he…he was the one that…I'm sorry…I should never have let my heart stray…I'm so sorry." Usagi whispered as she begged for his forgiveness making him sigh again, he hadn't meant for their meeting, the first after so long, to be as it was, but there was no other way, he couldn't get to her normally, since she had shut herself off…only now, while her body and soul were in such torment could he reach her, and that hurt him as much as it hurt her, that she had to be in such pain before he could go comfort her

"Usa…I want you to listen to me…" Mamoru said calling her attention to him as she looked up at him still sniffing and sobbing as he sighed once again…he was doing that a lot today. Once again he rubbed her tears from her cheeks as he searched her eyes with his own "I love you…more then anything, more then anyone. And I know, I know you love me too…but that…the thing is…while you continue to hold onto me I can never rest…and I know it hurts you to hold onto me too…you deserve a chance to be happy, while you're alive…you have so much ahead of you…letting it all go…just because of me…I don't want that. I want you to be happy, have children, for I know you love them, have a life, a love and a family…Usa…please…let me go…forgive him…I know you love him…and I know he cares for you too…let it all go, I don't hold what happened against him, and neither should you." Mamoru begged chewing at his bottom lip as she began to fade, she was being brought back to reality, to the pain.

"I can't forgive him…Mamoru…I'm sorry…I can't…I can't do that…he…he was the one that took you from me…he knew he was the one…and he never said anything. He-"

"You love him." Mamoru hissed, why was she always so dense…why couldn't she just accept it? Let herself be happy?

"I can't…" Usagi whispered, then she was gone, once again locked away from him, Mamoru let out one last deep sigh as he looked over the earth below them

"Please Usagi…be happy…I hope those boys have more luck then I…" he muttered turning as he went to the library, her mother would be there, Queen Selenity, he would go keep her company as he had all this time since his death, unable to move on.

"There has to be another way…" Quatre sighed, they had a plan, they had a very vague location…but they needed more, they needed a way to find them

"Why don't we ask that crazy doctor guy?" Duo chirped in as everyone blinked at him "What?" he demanded Heero glaring at him

"How will that help?" he demanded as Duo pouted

"Well Usa-chan's not human right…maybe he knows a way to find her coz of that…I only though…aw forget it!" Duo snapped pouting like a child as he occupied himself with his daughter, Wufei and Quatre staring after him

"Is it just me…or did he just have an intelligent idea for once?" Quatre asked their Chinese companion

"Don't mention it to him…he'll think he actually has a brain if we do." Wufei muttered an empty baby's bottle soon being pelted at his head

"I heard that!"

/pb/

"Serenity…my sweet Serenity…wake up." Who…

"My lord, she is waking."

"I can see that you idiot, get out of my sight!" I know you…who are you?

"Who?" she rasped, in a voice that sounded scratchy, from disuse or much screaming, she didn't know.

"Good morning my sweet Serenity. How are you feeling? You had quite the ordeal…" a voice purred while the woman forced her eyes to open as she gasped when they met the lilac before them

"Who…" she whispered again, his hand reaching over to trace her cheek, why didn't she like that? How odd…he seemed to know her

"I'm your lover, your fiancé…you were captured by my enemies…they tried to use you against me…do you not recall my love? Have they taken your memories from you?" he asked while she slowly shook her head, she didn't remember…why didn't she remember? Why did it feel wrong…no…he wouldn't lie to her, why would this man lie to her

"I…Don't…I don't remember…who are you? Who am I?" she whispered, confusion clouding her mind and face…why didn't she remember…had people really done this to her?

"My dearest Serenity." He purred pulling her into his embrace…why did she feel cold in his hold? "Don't fret my love, all will become clear soon, I will help you remember everything…I will remind you of everything." Demando promised, his lover to be nodding slowly curled in his hold, she should trust this man…he knew her…he said he was her lover…who was she to deny that, she didn't remember who she was…maybe he was right, of course he was right…why would he lie?

"Will you tell me? About me?" he smirked at this and nodded, he would tell her everything, his version. Soon he would have his queen, and she would love him, and no other, forever.

/pb/

"Well you look unhappy, don't you." Dorothy sniggered her eyes on the forlorn Trowa…she hated him now, she had loved him, and now she hated him

"Go away." He hissed, a rare show of anger from the normally controlled pilot

"Oh don't worry, I'm sure she doesn't hate you 03…I'm sure by now, from what she's going through, she doesn't even know you." Dorothy teased, her voice not at all comforting

"What does that mean?" Trowa demanded standing from his place on the cot as Dorothy sniggered again

"Demando's going to wipe her memories clean…and fill her pretty little blond head with new ones…ones without you, without any of you, without that man from her past, nothing. She'll be a perfect little doll. So don't fret your unibang head over it, she doesn't hate you. Why would someone hate a stranger."

"Usagi."

/pb/

"That really happened?" Serenity gasped listening with apt attention to the words of the man before her; she was kneeling on a large bed hanging to his every word as he told her about her past

"Yes it did…would you like to know the ending?" he asked teasingly as Serenity nodded desperate to know

"Please…don't keep me in suspense Demando-sama…please…tell me." She begged, a shudder of pleasure hitting him as she called him Demando-sama…her voice was nearly adoring in the way she said it…he had done well, he had his perfect queen now.

"Well…first I-" yes…he would fill her head with lies and stories, about himself, about her, about their love and lives…she would look at no one but him, she would think of no one but him, she would belong to no one, but him.

/pb/

"I'm going too."

"What?!" Quatre demanded, even Heero looked horrified, and for Heero, that was a big thing

"I'm going too, I want to help find her." Relena demanded stamping one foot, rather reminiscent of a child

"Relena…I really don't think that-" Zechs begun as his smaller sister interrupted him

"NO! I want to go, and I'm going!" Relena yelled, she didn't like how devoted Heero was to finding this woman, this woman that she thought of as competition, so she would go with them, and keep Heero's attention on her.

"Woman…you are NOT coming." Wufei said after a short silence, the sandy haired blondes blue eyes turning to him

"Oh I didn't know you were deaf Wufei…I'm going, that is final, I AM GOING!" Relena stressed, trying to be as clear as possible for him, the Chinese man wasn't backing down though, but neither was Relena, everyone vacated the immediate area quickly, this could and would get ugly, both were stubborn and hot headed at best.

"Woman-"

"Tea?" Quatre enquired, of the remainder of the group, Zechs nodding enthusiastically, they could continue with the planning in the tea room over some tea, while the pair fought it out, Heero was just glad to have escaped without Relena noticing, for now…she was sure to find him later.

"This my dearest is the dungeon." The voice floated across, Trowa's head rising, he knew that voice…Demando, the man that had taken Usagi and stolen her past.

"The…the dungeon?" a soft scared voice whispered, Usagi, Trowa bit back his cry to her as his chest constricted…no…surely she would know him, her memories wouldn't really be gone would they…even when he had amnesia he had recalled pieces, felt things when seeing those from his past.

"A tour?" Demando asked, yes, please come here, let me see you, speak to you Torwa's mind begged, maybe he could trigger something…maybe she was faking it, maybe…maybe she still remembered him, he didn't care if she hated him, as long as she remembered him. How did he save her otherwise? When she would not want to be saved

"D-Down there?" Usagi's scared voice floated, a masculine chuckle following.

"You'll be safe I promise my dearest…come." Trowa felt relief flood him when he saw her, she wasn't harmed, whatever he had done, he couldn't see any injuries on her, she looked scared though…

"Usagi!" he cried grabbing at the bars to his cell and staring at her desperately, begging her with his eyes as they caught her own, to remember him, speak to him, say his name, anything.

"Demando-sama." Usagi gasped hiding behind him suddenly, a smirk taking the tall mans lips as he sneered at Trowa

"Don't fret my love…he's merely an insane prisoner…he must think he knows you." Demando purred ushering his love out, he wanted to see how complete the wipe went…would she even twitch at this man she had once felt love for?

"Usagi, don't listen to him, he's lying to you. Usagi you have to recall me. Please. It's Trowa, remember Usagi, come on damnit!" Trowa begged they scared girl showing no recognition, instead clinging to Demando's arm, making a knife turn in his chest. No…

"I'm scared…please…can we go back now?" she whispered Demando nodding as he ushered her out, turning to the man in the cell as she disappeared up the stairs.

"Maybe you understand now…She's mine…don't worry though, I won't kill you, I want you to feel the pain I felt, as she loved another all those years, you'll know, every minute, as you love her, she is with me, In my life, my bed. You will take the pain for yourself and that stupid earthen prince, She is MINE!"

"This is wrong…this is not real love…you must know that…she will know something is wrong, it will feel wrong to her…please…just let her go." Trowa whispered "I will remain here, you can torture me, anything you wish…just don't…don't do this to her."

"You foolish boy…why would I care about what happens to you now? All I care about is my devoted lover upstairs…now if you'll excuse me. I'm going to go hold that little goddess of a princess in ways you can only dream about." Demando purred, his voice sickeningly sweet, he chuckled as he left, Trowa staring after him…please…get here soon to save her…please…Heero, everyone…save her.

We interrupt your regularly scheduled chapter to bring you this brief message

REVIEW PLEASE!!

And now, we return to the chapter.

/pb/

Serenity sat in the gardens humming gently to herself as she walked among the flowers thinking…Demando had been so kind to her since she had lost her memories…their love must really be strong and true, she was only a little worried, for she didn't yet feel this great love he said they had…but she was assured that would come with time…it was hard to love someone you didn't remember, no matter how much you loved them in the past, she was determined to love him again. "love…" Serenity murmured, her mind somehow turning to the man she had seen in the dungeon…he had spoken such strange things…but Demando had said he was not in his right mind…she felt sorry for him, to be kept in a dungeon when he was so disturbed already, he must be so scared, and to see her whom must resemble someone dear to him…his passionate plea for her to recall him…the poor man…maybe she should talk to her love about him…she quickly rethought that however, if she ever mentioned another man he became scary…she would stay silent…maybe she could secretly visit him, bring his sanity back to him…as long as she wasn't caught, it was a brilliant idea, she would help him, this poor soul in the dungeon, recall himself, and maybe then he would leave her mind and thoughts.

/pb/

"I still can't believe she won." Duo whispered to Zechs whom nodded in agreement, Relena had won over Wufei…she was coming with them.

"Maxwell I swear to god…if this ever gets out…I will kill you." Wufei hissed as Duo hid his childlike giggle behind a hand

"I swear Wu-man…no one will ever know." He promised, one hand behind his back fingers crossed, didn't count if he had his fingers crossed…now who to e-mail…

"Duo…not the time to be playing around." Quatre reminded as the bright pilot sobered, he had nearly forgotten why they were here…Usagi, they were going to save Usagi…and Trowa of course...duh…but most of all, Usagi, she was one of his closest friends, and a mother figure to his daughter, there was no way in hell the Shinigami was going to let some psycho take her away…who would change diapers for him?

"Relena…when we arrive…you will stay close to Heero, do not leave his side, okay? He'll protect you." Zechs commanded as Relena nodded enthusiastically, Zechs getting a desperate and angry look from Heero at this, he had been hoping to palm her off to her brother, but the blond had beaten him to it. "Heero…protecting my sister is a mission…understood?" Zechs reasoned as Heero grumbled lightly but accepted, if it was a mission he would do it…

"Zechs…" Relena whined as the tall blond withheld his sigh and groan

"Yes Relena?" he asked as the girl pouted at him

"Are we there yet?" she asked coyly making the tall man try to restrain his eye twitch, unsuccessfully one might add…this was of course the 13th time she had asked so far on this trip

"…No." he said after some pause as Heero smirked over at him as if to say, serves you right. Getting a dangerous glare in return

"Why not?" Relena demanded, even Quatre was beginning to lose patience, luckily Duo had thought ahead, since they had already talked over strategies and reconfirmed it all, he had pulled out the earphones and plugged himself and Quatre in, Wufei, Heero and Zechs being left to fend for their own sanity.

"How much longer…really?" Duo whispered to Quatre as the blond pilot glanced at the long haired brunette before looking back at Relena, how much more of Relena in a small space?

"15 Hours…" he muttered making Duo groan…and turn the volume up…why had Wufei caved? Why? Usagi better be alright and make all this worth it.

/pb/

"Usagi!" Trowa gasped as he spotted her, she was stepping daintily down the stairs, her skirts tugged up slightly to keep them from brushing the dirty floor, her blue eyes caught his one visible green one as she smiled shyly before frowning slightly, having an obvious internal conversation…she seemed so much more innocent and childlike now…was she like this when she was younger? Before he had taken her fiancé from her?

"I…came to talk to you…I want to help you…Demando-sama…says you lost your mind…I'm going to talk to you…help you find peace in yourself…maybe then he'll let you go." Usagi said after a moment as Trowa studied her, Demando must not know she was here, or he would surely object.

"Usagi-" Trowa began as she smiled cutting him off as he stared, he had never seen her smile that openly, that pure before.

"No…that's not my name…I'm Serenity…Who was Usagi?" she asked stepping closer, Trowa decided then to try jog her memory, subtly, a direct approach would scare her off, make her run…and likely gain no results…he would try, to bring her back, without her knowing he was doing it…while he had this chance, he would try.

"She was my friend…is my friend…I…I did something bad and she hated me for it…I want to apologise to her…but never got the chance."

"What did you do?" Serenity asked, feeling her heart catch in her chest, but not knowing why…why around him did she feel such strange emotions, when around her lover she felt nothing, Demando never made her heart pound this way, with all his stories she didn't wait with such baited breath for an answer.

Maybe because on a level she already knew then, yes, that must be why, that's why his stories were more exciting, this nameless insane mans, because she didn't already know them.

"I took something from her…without meaning to…that crushed her world…for a long time…I didn't even know I had taken it from her until a friend of mine told me…And I didn't tell her, I kept it a secret…I should have told her sooner…instead of her being told by another, I should have told her, let her hate me…I just…didn't want…her to hate me…I never wanted you to hate me Usa…so please…remember." Trowa whispered trying to hold back his tears, how long had it been since he had cried…but her not recalling him hurt worse then any other pain he had known…let her hate him, cry at him, scream at him, hit him…anything…just not this…nothingness.

"You loved her…this Usagi girl…didn't you." Serenity murmured, ignoring the fact he had called her Usagi again…that would take time to make him realise she wasn't this woman.

"I…" Trowa whispered before his eyes met her own again "Yes…I love her." He breathed, her eyes widened and for a moment he thought she had remembered, but soon the flutter of emotion disappeared as she smiled innocently at him

"Love must feel wonderful…" she whispered tilting her head, she looked adorable, he admitted that…but this wasn't her…this wasn't the Usagi he knew…this really was Serenity, a stranger…

"You don't love Demando?" Trowa asked, there was hope for her still then

"Oh…yes I do…I mean…I will…when I remember everything…we're deeply in love you see…We're getting married in two days even…But I got caught by some bad people that hate him…and thy did something to make me forget everything…he's teaching me slowly again, about myself…about him. And how much we love one another. In time I'll remember as well." Serenity said smiling at him at Trowa stared at her, making sure to make contact with her eyes

"What if he's not telling the truth?" Trowa asked as anger touched her eyes

"How dare you!" She snapped glaring at him and clenching her fists "Why would he lie to me? He loves me! I'm leaving." Serenity cried as she turned and stormed off

"Wait…please…" Trowa called, but she was gone…his chance, he had ruined it…he had only the hope that she may calm down and return to talk to him again…please let her return.

/pb/

"Serenity my love…what's the matter?" Demando asked, she seemed agitated…

"Ah…I'm sorry…nothing…it's nothing…just…upset that I don't…remember everything yet." Serenity said, she was too scared to tell him what Trowa had said, he would be so mad that she had talked to him

"It will take time my love…just give it time…I promise…one day…you will remember everything." I will ensure you never recall your real past Serenity, you will always remain mine.

"Mmm…You're right…sorry…I just…want to remember…everything I don't know…I don't like not knowing my own life." Serenity murmured as Demando waved her over and drew her into a hug

"Don't worry love…it takes time. How about you forget such trivial matters and think more on our wedding…It's coming up fast…are you helping with the preparations? I'll keep your mind off everything, I'll organise for them to consult with you more." Demando said, distractions were good at this time, while she was still too curious for her own good, when she had settled, and married him, he would relax a little more, until then, he had to be sure there was nothing to destroy the images he was creating in her mind.

"That…would be nice…thankyou." Serenity murmured…why did it all feel so wrong…that man…he wasn't telling the truth was he? Demando wouldn't lie to her…would he? If so…who did she trust? No…she would trust in Demando…that man in the dungeon, he was insane…he was not telling a lie, he just didn't know what he was saying…that was it, Demando loved her, he wouldn't lie to her about her own past. "You're right…I'm being silly…" Serenity said, more to assure herself then him, though it helped him as well

"How about you retire early?" Demando said as Serenity nodded, she would go to bed early, and she was so tired from worrying over things that didn't matter, shouldn't matter

"Goodnight Demando-sama."

"Goodnight, My Serenity."

/pb/

"Please…let me kill her?" Duo begged glancing back at Relena as she girl sang, thy had tried to turn on the radio to give the men some peace…so she was singing with the radio…and not well…their dear Princess of the Sanc Kingdom…was tone deaf…

"Bear with it…Turn the volume up…please." Quatre muttered as Duo nodded, he really should have bough noise cancelling earphones…not even top volume was completely masking Relena's voice…at least they had some barrier, Zechs looked ready to cry, Heero suicidal and Wufei more then a little feral…the bad guys better watch out when they arrived, they were all ready to kill 'anything' and everything that got in their way.

"Usagi's worth it." Duo muttered, his blond Arabian friend nodding in agreement, Usagi was worth all this torture.
