Chapter 9:

2 weeks later, the sound of the guitar playing filled the Three Lights's apartment before a voice accompanied it.

Everybody needs inspiration
Everybody needs a soul
A beautiful melody
When the nights alone
'Cause there is no guarantee
That this life is easy

Yea when my world is falling apart
When there's no light
To break up the dark
That's when I I look at you

When the waves are flooding the shore
And I can't find my way home any more
That's when I I look at you

"Seiya, do you realize that your voice is vibrating off the walls?"

Seiya stopped playing her guitar, looking up to see Yaten and Taiki standing in the doorway of the hallway and shrugged. "It isn't my fault that my voice is unusually stronger than the both of yours put together."

Yaten rolled her eyes, snorting. "Oh please, I rather be a tenor than an alto like you. You sing too damn high."

"You're just jealous as usual that I have 4 octaves compared to you."

Taiki sighed, rolling her eyes and said before Yaten could come up with an insult,"Quit it you two. Too early in the morning. Demo, Seiya?"

Seiya looked up from strumming her guitar, looking at Taiki in confusion. "Nani?"

"What's the name of that song that you were singing?"

Seiya shrugged, gesturing to her head. "I don't know. It's just been floating in my head, just like another one is. Demo I can't grasp that one just yet, though it sounds familiar to me in a way." Then she shrugged again, strumming her guitar thoughtfully.

Yaten rolled her eyes, sitting down on the couch and said in annoyance,"Well then, go ahead and get whatever songs of yours that are stuck in your head out. Don't want to hear you sing all day long."

Seiya sighed again, playing her guitar again and started to sing once again.

I'm trying not to pretend, It won't happen again and again like that.
I never thought it would end, 'cause you got up in my head, in my head like that.
And made me happy, baby, love is crazy,
So amazing, but it's changing, rearranging,
I don't think I can take anymore

"Yeah. I was right. It was Seiya in here, shrieking her brains out as if she's having sex in here."

Seiya glared at Yaten, clenching her teeth. "What did you say, you piece of shit?"

Yaten smirked at Seiya, twirling a lock of silver hair between her fingers. "You heard me, you little banshee."

Seiya sat down her guitar, raising a fist to Yaten's face threateningly. "Say that again. I dare you. Go ahead. I'll kick your ass all the way back up to your momma's pussy, you little hussy!"

"Hussy? Who in the hell are you calling a hussy? At least I'm not gay!"

"Oh shut up unless you want a fucking black eye!"

"Go ahead so that I can make you as short as me!"

"Oh please, you can't make anybody as short as you, you little-."

Someone knocked on the door. Taiki sighed in relief, walking to the door and opened it to reveal Usagi, who had a bag from Crown.

Taiki smiled down at the blonde, moving aside to let her in and closed the door behind her. "Ohayo, Tsukino-san. What brings you here?"

Usagi blushed, shuffling her feet nervously. "Anou, I wanted to have breakfast with Seiya."

Seiya smiled at Usagi, getting up and ruffled her hair affectionately. "Hmm, really? You came back for me? Oh how about a good morning kiss for breakfast instead from the pretty girl, ne?"

Usagi blushed some more, feeling Seiya's soft lips brush against her left cheek.

Yaten rolled her eyes, getting up and tugged Seiya away from Usagi. "Would you quit that? She's obviously not interested in you in THAT way, so quit flirting and being a hentai, and take a fucking shower at least."

"After your short ass goes away so that my Odango and I could have some alone time!"

Seiya cringed afterwards, clutching her head in pain.

Usagi's eyes widened, looking at Seiya in shock. "What did you just call me?"

Seiya lets go of her head, scowling at a bewildered Taiki, Yaten, and Usagi and crossed her arms over her chest. "What are you guys doing? If you want to stare at me, just take a fucking picture. Geez. I swear." Then she walked out of the room.

"She must be getting figments of her memories again."

Usagi frowned, looking at Taiki in confusion. "What do you mean?"

Yaten sighed, running a hand through her hair and explained,"Well, she's been like this since she woken up and certain memories attend to come back to her for a moment, demo she forgets them afterwards as if she were dreaming or something."

Usagi glanced over at the hallway where Seiya had disappeared off to, sadness etched on her face. "So that was one of her moments, ne?"

Taiki looked down sadly, looking back up at Usagi with sympathy and replied,"I'm afraid so."

Usagi sighed sadly, determination soon took the place of her sadness. "I'll try my best to help her to remember everything. Don't want to see her like this any longer."

Yaten and Taiki looked at each other worriedly as they both thought 'If only she knew...'

Yaten said,"Anyway, we've gotta go. I have a photoshoot, and Taiki has a signing. So watch Seiya, though beware of her other moments."

Usagi frowned, tilting her head to the side as she asked,"What other moments?"

Taiki explained,"Well, Seiya tends to... have these moments where she zones completely out into her mind and if we were to mess with her, she tries to either kill us or just randomly cries."

Usagi looked down at her feet, her eyes showing sadness and sympathy as she said to herself mostly,"Poor Seiya..."

Yaten and Taiki sighed, before Taiki gave Usagi some money, causing Usagi to look up at them in shock.

"For food and anything else. We'll be right back between 6 and 8," said Taiki, following Yaten out of the apartment before Usagi could protest.

Usagi looked down at her hand, then back up and sighed, sitting down on the couch before turning on the TV.

"So tell me about yourself since I don't remember you really, though in a way I remember that you have a beautiful smile and always smelled like strawberries and vanilla."

Usagi jumped onto her feet with a yelp, snapping around to see Seiya leaning against the door frame with a red rose in her hand as she looked at it thoughtfully.

"Seiya? When did you get out of the shower?" asked a slightly confused Usagi, tilting her head to the side as the dark-haired light placed the rose back inside a nearby vase once smelling it.

Seiya turned her dark intense gaze on Usagi, crossing her arms as she made her way over to the couch to sit next to Usagi. "A few minutes ago. Demo you didn't respond to my request of telling me about yourself," said Seiya, looking up at Usagi as her wet hair shone in the light, showing how blue it was compared to the blackness it seems to always hold.

'It's like the night sky...' thought Usagi in bewilderment, taking a few strands of Seiya's hair in her hand. Then she said when she noticed the look that Seiya was giving her,"Well, my name is Usagi Tsukino. I am 24-years-old like you. We went to the same high school last time you were here. We are best friends. And I am also a sailor senshi known as Sailor Moon."

Seiya frowned, looking at Usagi in amusement and bewilderment as the blonde continued to play with her hair. "Demo how? I don't remember ever leaving Kinmoku, except for a few months ago."

Usagi looked at Seiya in surprise, sadness overwhelming her heart again. "You don't?"

Seiya shook her head, flipping her hair over her shoulder. "Iie, I don't. And I just hate the fact that I'm hurting you, and don't say that you're not since I can see it in your eyes."

"Demo, Seiya, I-."

Seiya shook her head again, looking to her hands. "Demo I seem to remember you in a way. You're always there in my dreams and you shine so brightly. So pure and warm," said Seiya, looking back up at a shock Usagi, taking her hands into hers.

"Seiya, I-," said Usagi, a tear trailing down her face.

Seiya said,"Don't worry. I am just crazy. I swear that I'm not good enough to be anything else other than be the leader of the Sailor Starlights, Princess Kakyuu's protector, and a trained killer. I've always used to wonder why I'm unable to love an-."

Seiya was cut off by the sound of her phone ringing.

Seiya sighed, taking it out and read the text message, smirking to Usagi's confusion. "Come on. I have to go to the recording studio today. I'll wow ya with my sexy voice once again," said Seiya, taking Usagi's hand and led her out of the apartment.

A hour later, Usagi asked once taking a sip of her strawberry milkshake,"So, Seiya, how old were you when you learned how to sing?"

Seiya shrugged, continuing to drive. "I was 6 years old, demo I didn't learn it. It came naturally."

Usagi said,"Okay. Demo when did you become a sailor senshi if you don't mind me asking?"

"I don't know to tell you the truth. I think I was about 8 and a half years old," said Seiya, making a left turn.

Usagi nodded her head in understanding, looking out of the window at the rain sadly.

Seiya looked over at Usagi, her eyes filling with sadness and guilt at how sad Usagi was and was about to reach a hand to grasp her hand for comfort, until a sharp pain shot through her head.

Then, Seiya cringed, holding her head in pain.

Usagi gaped at Seiya, her eyes widening in horror and surprise as she grabbed onto the steering wheel. "What's wrong, Seiya? SEIYA!" cried Usagi in alarm, trying to steer the car back onto the right side.

Seiya whimpered, panting heavily as she held her head.

*flash*

"Am I good enough?"

*flash*

"Odango..."

*flash*

Usagi cried out again, using one hand to try and calm Seiya. "Seiya, what's wrong? Seiya, please answer me! Seiya, we-."

The sound of a truck horn cut Usagi off mid-sentence, causing Usagi's eyes to widen in shock and horror.

Usagi opened her mouth to let out another cry, followed by another sound before Seiya's world went blank.

"SEIYA!"

CRASH!
