Usagi POV

I was surrounded by pitch black. Was this a dream? Or another dimension of reality? A shiver went down my spine, but the coldness quickly went away when I felt familiar hands on my shoulders. It was the same hands from before. I felt safe and sound. My eyes began to get heavy and I closed my eyes leaning into the protective hands.

My body shot up as I suddenly woke. My head was aching terribly and sitting up so quick didn't help one bit.

"Woa... Don't get up so fast," I felt a hand on my shoulder.

I turned to see it was Mamoru. I processed my surroundings slowly. My head couldn't concentrate. I couldn't think straight. I saw everyone surrounding me. We were all stuffed in Mamoru's bedroom.

Ami cleared her throat, "I had my mom check you up, Usagi. You have 5 stitches in the back of your head, and you have a concussion."

My hand went immediately to my forehead, and then I felt my way to the back of my head where I felt a bump with stitches. My body started to feel dizzy, and I immediately griped the sheets.

"Usagi! Are you okay?!" Minako said alerted.

"I.. I-I...," I tried to speak, but could barley react or think what to say. My head was beating harder, and I didn't know if I should cry or sleep.

"Don't rush things out of her. She's been through a lot and can barley think straight," Haruka told the group.

"Do you want more sleep, Usa?" Mamoru asked with concern.

I just waved my hand dismissing the idea. I didn't want to sleep anymore. I wanted to stay up even if I sat here and did nothing. My stomach actually started to rumble too. I pointed my finger to my stomach to get the message across.

Setsuna and Michiru nodded their heads in unison. "Then we'll be making lunch," Pluto announced, "Hotaru you wanna help?"

"Mhmm!" Hotaru ran ahead of Setsuna and Michiru out of the room.

Suddenly, I got this rush of uncertainty. The first thing that popped into my mind was how did I even get here? Where was Queen Shadow? And did we defeat her?

I gripped the sheets once more and tried not to cry from confusion, "w-what happened?" I asked. The last thing I could remember clearly was falling from the sky. There was feathers every where and that's about it. I feel like I did something else, but I had no idea where to begin.

"Usagi.. Do you not remember?" Minako asked.

"You suddenly awakened, but we thought you died. A-and then the Legendary Silver Crystal brightened with power. You defeated Queen Shadow with one tap," Makoto tried to explain.

A silence of sorrow filled the room. Everyone left in the room had sad looks directed at me. I didn't fully understand. It all seemed so unreal. What happened that made everyone like this?

"Y-You died Usagi..," Rei broke the long silence.

My mind went ballistic to the news. I went back to holding my head in my hands. I guess I had more amnesia than I thought. I tried to put all my memories together, but I still don't remember all that went down.

Rei cringed as she continued to explain, "Usagi.. Queen Shadow tortured you to death. She... She killed you from the inside out, a-and you actually died-d.."

I looked up again horrified. I was remembering now. I died. I remember feeling that pain I had never felt before. I felt my body shutting down. It was twisted and turning, and I never want to feel it again.

Ami said through tears, "your here now and that's all that matters." She leaned into the bed and lightly hugged me.

Even with the huge headache I had already, I broke. I lost it. Tears fell from my eyes like rain, and I knew the storm wouldn't end soon.
