"So the places on your arms wasn't from debris but from bar fights?" Rei asked, earning a sigh from Tsuki as they walked back toward the camp.

"Yeah, I just don't want the girls to know that I turned into a common drunkard after….what happened." The princess of darkness replied, sighing as she glanced up at the sky once again before adding "I mean how you would feel if you found out that your mother was a complete idiot?"

"Tsuki…no one expects you to be strong. Heck, all of us had to face something or another." The fire guardian pointed out, resting her hand on the younger woman's shoulder.

"I know….But I feel like I'm betraying them." She admitted, earning a smile.

"You're not. I have the feeling that they'll understand. After all….they knew you in the darkest times of your childhood." Rei reminded her.

Tsuki nodded then and glanced over at the campsite, only seeing Karunā sitting by the fire, knees drawn to her chest.

"She reminds me so much of myself…She is scared of her powers, she is afraid that she'll hurt someone and she's so hot headed." Tsuki stated, earning a chuckle.

"Go talk to her." Mars stated, laughing a bit as Tsuki turned to face her.

"You're right…..Lets go. I want to show you something anyway."

Rei couldn't help but laugh at Tsuki's antics as she suddenly found herself speeding down the hill at light speed.

"You are crazy…Worse than Uranus!"

Karunā looked up as she heard something approach, only to find that Tsuki was taking a seat beside her.

"What's wrong?"

The question caught her off guard, causing her eyes to widen slightly as she suddenly blushed.

"It's stupid…"

Tsuki chuckled a bit as she leaned back, staring up at the sky.

"Let me guess…bad dreams?" she guessed, earning a surprised look.

"How did you know?"

Karunā's question caused the warrior princess to sigh before admitting softly

"I have nightmares too. The quartet died because of Jaaku-Henkō…right in front of me. Ever since then I have nightmares."

Karunā could barely believe what she was hearing.

"You have nightmares?" she questioned, earning a nod.

"Sometimes because I was beaten as a child….Sometimes because I was raped…other times because of losing my family." Tsuki answered honestly, earning a shocked look.

"Wait! That girl in the vision! That was you!" Exclaimed Karunā.

"Yeah…it was me. I had to learn that everything wasn't my fault." Replied Tsuki, brushing a strand of hair from her wards face.

Karunā smiled up at the nightmare warrior before stating softly

"Thanks…Can I ask you something? You said you were afraid of your powers….why?"

Tsuki sighed as she glanced down and ran a hand over her face.

"In my previous life I was called Shoku Kurai. During the silver millennia there was a battle between Queen Serenity's silver moon clan and the black moon's Kurai clan. Shoku was sent as an assassin but she turned on her family and protected the princess…though then Akuma and his army came. Akuma hurt the guardian Neptune and set Shoku off….Shoku's full power unleashed and she mercilessly cut her own brother through with her sword. When she woke up she was covered in blood, her brother's body nearby and Setsuna knelt beside of her. I've always been afraid I'd be able to turn evil." Answered Tsuki, clenching her fists so tightly that her knuckles turned white.

"You're not evil….You were trying to protect your friends. Akuma was the one in the wrong, not you!" the solar senshi stated suddenly, just as a loud roar echoed through the air.

The sound not only sent Karunā almost onto Tsuki's lap but also called the amazon quartet out of their tent.

"What was that?" the fifteen year old murmured, earning a laugh from everyone.

"That's Tora." Eclipse stated just as Vesves came running over to her with a large smile on her face.

"Tiger's eye is coming! They said that they would come!"

Tsuki laughed at her daughter's comment and ruffled her hair.

"Yeah…it's those idiots. Though I have a feeling Sakana will just be riding Tora." Tsuki answered, laughing as she saw a large tiger coming into the clearing.

"Suki-Chan!" Fisheye exclaimed, running over to where the small group was, engulfing the dark haired senshi who instantly hugged back.

"Sakana-Chan! It's so good to see you!" she stated before glancing over at the other two and smiling before they too engulfed her in a hug.

Karunā watched in amazement as the small family reunited, glancing down slightly as she was introduced to the blue haired feminine figure.

She couldn't believe that this group of warriors and royalty were so close and how much they honestly cared for each other.
