Rachel has been sitting on the floor next to Helena the entire night. Wondering on what to do now. Would she have any Memories of Maria?... Would she even be a normal functioning human yet? Maria created a teenager, Helena never had a childhood or years to learn. Would she be able to live in the real world?..

Helena slowly opened her eyes. She spotted Rachel and smiled. "Hello!" She mumbled. Rachel sighed in relief. Atleast she could speak. Rachel thought about it and came to the conclusion that perhaps the part of the soul Maria had put into Helena might have been her life experience. Rachel looked her up and down. "Helena.." Rachel mumbled and took her hands holding back tears. "Helena?" She asked. "Is that my name?"

Rachel slowly nodded "Yeah, yeah... That's your name." Rachel replied and then hugged her. Helena didn't know what that was for but she returned the hug.

The bells rung. School would start soon. Helena didn't have a uniform yet and wasn't registered as a student. What was she gonna do. Rachel went to her closet and pulled out one of her replacement uniforms that she had in case her's broke. She handed it to Helena. "Hear, were!" Rachel instructed smiling at her.

Helena looked at it for a moment and then started getting dressed. When she was done Rachel pulled her along through the school's hallways. "Where are we going?" Helena asked confused. "School! You're gonna love it, I'm sure." Rachel tried being positive. Maria has never loved it. The pressure that was put on her all lead to her...

No,no Rachel did want to think about it. Now Helena was here. A part of Maria was still in there, alive and breathing... Just because her old body died doesn't mean she is gone forever.

Rachel went to her classroom. There was a teacher sitting at the teacher's desk. It was Rachel's homeroom teacher. "Excuse me, miss." She spoke to her teacher. As soon as she was sure she had the teacher's attention she would continue. "This is Helena! A friend of mine... Can she attend this class please?.. She is not yet registered, but she wants to be." Rachel asked holding Helena's hand the entire time. Her teacher hesitated but seeing the close bound those two seemed to have she reluctantly agreed. "Why not.." she pulled out a registration paper. "Tell her to fill that out so we can get her registered." Her teacher said and handed Rachel a bunch of paper.

In class Helena was happily filling out the paper. Well, who else should? She had no family, no one. She just lived for approximately 10 hours yet.

Rachel looked over at her. She sadly had to seats a few sits away from Rachel because every seat near Rachel was taken. Helena was really involved into a talk with her seat neighbor Constance. She was a dreamy girl with no friends because everyone thought she was crazy. Why would Maria- no Helena speak to a person like that? Rachel found no explanation. In the break Rachel went over to her trying to slowly drag her away from Constance.

"You can't be talking to her. She's weird. You should be around me and me only!" Rachel stated a little angry. Helena looked at her innocently. She didn't understand why she was so mad, all she did was talk. Was that wrong?

"Why?.." Helena simply asked. "Please don't be mad.." she added. Rachel sighed, looking at her innocent face she couldn't bear being mad at her anymore. She had atleast gained Maria's innocence.

Sadly overtime, Rachel would notice Helena and Constance growing closer, while she herself grew further and futher away from Helena. Rachel hated it. There was her friends soul in a foreign body, living the life her friend couldn't have and is not caring about her anymore.

Rachel wanted to yell at her. Tell her she belongs to her and keep her away from Constance, but the more Rachel listened to her own thoughts she realized how wrong this sounded. At lunch break, Rachel took a few seats away from the two and watched them

"Ah~ Fortress Aegis is so beautiful! I never wanna leave...~" Constance said dreamily. Helena would chuckle. "You're very pretty as well. I also never wanna leave you! I think that's the thing with pre mtty things." Helena obviously flirted. Constance gave a soft laugh. She was happy. That's what counts, right? The 'new Maria' should be happy...

Rachel continued to watched them. Constance was kissing Helena's cheek making them look so perfect for each other. As envious as Rachel was, she couldn't be mad at either of them. They were perfect for each other and did nothing wrong. Rachel sighed.

If you care about your friend, you have to let them go...

But why does Rachel never find a person like Constance is for Helena.

After all she just wants to be important for someone...
