It had been about a week and it looked like they had stayed in the same place in space. Misaki knew they were traveling several hundred miles a day, it just didn't look like it. Usagi seemed to be more relaxed here in space than on earth. It was like Usagi suddenly relaxed as soon as the had left earth.

Usagi didn't want to risk running into the Galerians so they had taken the longer way around. Though looking out the window it had been a good choice as crafts had came and gone from the red planet. Misaki fell asleep in the bed that had popped out of the floor.

Usagi had been sitting for hours flying them around Mars/Galerius. while Misaki sleeps Usagi makes the large craft go much faster. He always goes much faster when Misaki sleep as he tends to get nauseous. They were almost halfway to Ekurana.

Usagi increases the speed even more and they soar through space. Usagi taps the the wristband that is still around the steering stick. a tiny screen hovers above it and he clicks into the security cameras files of the earthen space center. He plays the video from right after they left earth's surface.

~In the video seconds after the spacecraft shoots into the air.~

Eri stand in the middle of the landing zone as several Glalerian crafts land. Horror floods her face as she looks up to the sky and watches a missile of some sort launches at the spacecraft Usagi is flying.

Horribly ugly beings exit the landed crafts, each with a unique weapon. workers flood out of the buildings. One disgusting being moves towards her, its weapon in its hand.

Its weapon is shaped kind of like a sword but a deep blue with a green flickering edge that drips a nasty looking liquid. The Glalerian is about her height and it's clearly a woman as its body is curved in all the right places.

Eri looks directly at it as it moves its long sword like weapon up and eases it through Eri's chest. A sick grin makes its way upon its hideous face as the woman's blood spills from the wound as it grows. Usagi knew that that liquid dissolved flesh, bones and anything that was alive. They had to have been very cautious when handling it.

The creature slowly pulls her weapon from Eri's chest and watches her fall over onto the bloodstained ground.

Her lips move forming her last words.

"Live Usagi." she whispers and her blue eyes lose their light and her body goes limp.

~stepping out of the video now.~

"She died." A voice says from behind Usagi. Usagi looks over his shoulder and sees Misaki with a tear rolling down his face. Usagi spins his seat around and pulls Misaki close while slowing the craft way down.

"Yes she did, I'm sorry you had to see that Misaki I thought you were asleep." Usagi says and makes the screen disappear into the wristband.

Misaki sniffles and sits on Usagi's lap.

"You should be watching where we are going." Misaki says tears still making their way down his face.

"I could fly this thing blindfolded and not come close to hitting anything." Usagi says and wipes the tears from Misaki's face.

The wristband suddenly causes the ship to go around an asteroid. Usagi smiles.

"Plus this thing can fly itself with the wristband, it's the key as well so all I really need to do is put it in its place but I prefer to fly it myself. Also when it flies itself it goes much slower than if I were to fly it." Usagi says and Misaki nods.

Usagi stands up and carries Misaki back to the bed and lays down with him.

"Let's go to sleep, both of us need sleep as you got woke up and I haven't slept in several earth days, biased on your sleep patterns." Usagi says and the lights in the craft dim down. Usagi falls asleep while Misaki lays awake next to him.

Misaki couldn't sleep now if he did he felt he would dream of Aikawa-san's death.

Usagi moves around in his sleep and Misaki watches as his face shows absolutely no emotion, that's not normal, Usagi's sleeping face usually shows some emotion.

~Usagi is dreaming lets see what he is dreaming about~

Usagi looks around, he knew he had been here before, it looked so familiar to him. The sculpted entrances, beautiful tiled flooring, the tapestries hanging from the walls.

As he walked down the wide hallway he began to get this feeling of dread. He passes a mirror and happens to glance into it as he passes it. He is about three feet tall. No way he was four years old. He had to go see the queen she had requested the he come to see her.

It was the first time in his short life that she had even asked for him, he knew she despised him and he didn't really understand why. She wasn't the only one that despised him, the elders didn't like him either. even at his young age and little understanding of his aunts hate of him he knew something had happened.

He hadn't spoken unless spoken to, he never asked questions, he thought he was doing ok in his studies, he didn't make any noise, he never showed any emotions and he did his best to do as he was told to do. So what had he done wrong? He wonders as he reaches her throne room. He could never seem to make her happy with him, he wanted her to be happy with him, but he knew deep down that it would never happen.

He waits quietly as the guard looks him over and allows him to pass, he enters the throne room and keeps his eyes down. It was rude to look the queen in the eyes, or so he was told. He kept his dull purple eyes on the floor as she entered the room.

He could never see her face as his eyes were always pointed down but he saw that she had beautiful long silver hair that nearly touched the floor. She had a more peachy blue skin tone that suited her very nicely along with the shades of red in her dress.

It wasn't a fluffy dress like he had seen his mother wearing in the paintings and tapestries.

It fit her slim body perfectly, but her voice didn't match her beautiful appearance. Her voice is filled with disgust.

"I would assume you are doing well in your studies and not causing the elders any issues. Is that right?" She says in a loud voice.

"Yes your highness." He replies as politely as possible making sure that he keeps all the fear out of his voice.

"Good you better be keeping out of the way or you will have to be punished again, and I don't want to have to do that but if you step out of line it will happen again, is that understood boy?" she says.

"Yes your highness." He says trying his best nor to cry and freak out. He knew she would put him through a worse punishment if she or the elders thought that he stepped out of line.

He had been put through many punishments already and each time they got worse, more intense.

~poor Usagi, let's leave the dream.~


alright that's this sad chapter done usagis dream is actually a memory just keep that in mind
