Yuuki's POV

I felt so useless... I tried so hard to fight this dark feeling thats clinging me in place. What's worse I can not move...see, but I can hear everything. I heard what Queen Nehelenia said to Helios. Sadly what she told him was true, I was always returned to those haunting moments when everything was good...so warm full of love from him, when it was taken from me in seconds. Then not giving me a chance to breathe, and cry I was brought back to the same memories of that day.

I begged and screamed for this nightmare to end, but my pleas fell on deaf ears. This was agonizing, I wanted out...

"Oh, Princess... Please forgive me, I didn't protect you."

I furrow my brows, that was Helios. I felt a surge of warmth and power going through my chest. I felt my inner self hugging my naked body as it was tied by the darkness. And with that energy I had I opened my eyes halfway, seeing a blurry image of Helios, my precious Pegasus inside the cage like some animal.

"He...li...os."

My vision was slowly darkening but I saw him lift his head, but using too much of my strength my eyes shut closed re-entering those haunting memories. A single tear slides down my cheek.

'I wish you were here to hold me, my sweet Pegasus...I don't think I will survive this.'

I can't remember how many times I relived that awful day, I lost count after seven. I wonder how Momo-nii is doing...is he in any more pain from that curse? Is Usa-chan okay? Is Chibiusa doing okay? So many thoughts of how everyone is doing.

"Princess."

I feel like I can hear his sweet, melodic voice.

"Princess!"

My heart fluttered in happiness, that wasn't my nightmares playing with my heart it was his actual voice! 

"He...li... Heli..os..?"

I struggled to force my eyes to open, even if I was stuck inside my mind this still was hard to open them! I was getting frustrated! I gasped silently when I felt his warm kind hands touch my cheeks, whispering.

"Open your eyes, Princess... I believe in you."

His kind voice whispers to me, urging me. With the newfound strength I struggled and I did it! My eyes opened, it was blurry for a bit until it cleared to see Helios in his true form but oddly he had a golden horn like his pegasus form on his head, which probably came with the curse Queen Nehelenia put on him. Smiling softly as he pulls his hands away to his side, while he smiles.

"Helios...it's you. Where..." I trailed off slowly looking around and seeing nothing but darkness, only a light source was coming from me, but it was dim from how weak I had gotten. Being here was slowly sapping the life out of me.

He looks grim "Inside your mind. I entered your mind to help with breaking this curse Queen Nehelenia put on you."

I furrow my brows "She...put a curse on me?" I murmured, surprised.

He nods solemnly. "Correct. You are forced to sleep and relive a horrible moment in your life for eternity until you die. Which I will not allow."

He looked and acted so sure of himself. How can he save me from this curse?

"How...? How can you save me when you, yourself are cursed? I can't allow you to worry about me, Helios... Just...just keep my brother and Usa-chan safe for me. I'm useless... I can't even protect Momo-nii o-or you." I spoke with a trembling voice.
