When they had all detransformed, I lead all the Solar System Senshi to Makoto's chambers, where she was asleep with her hands and feet shaking, as if she was really cold and she had gone out without winter appropriate clothing on. Ami looked at her and rushed to grab some medicine, so as to make sure that Makoto could be cured before possible death. But, no amount of medicine could make Makoto stop her slumbering, shivering and groaning. It was getting to the point where Ami had given her the maximum dose she could if she wished to not have Makoto become more ill than she already was. We gave her warm food but it didn't wake her up. Nothing did. It got to the point that we were considering giving up on the operation altogether. She wasn't waking up from her slumber, no matter what we tried to do. She was mumbling inaudible gibberish under her breath and still shivering. I frowned and looked at her, thinking of how sad she looked in her slumber - causing me to realise what this sudden coma of hers was caused by. It was Mako's version of Chibi-Usa's nightmare. Except, Ami was the one take by the villain instead of me, and Taiki was said villain. I was about to open my mouth to say a such, but Ami opened hers first.
"Ami-san, what is your suggestion?" PallaPalla queried. "Palla-Palla - I mean I - would like to know."
"Do you know how that, in the 20th Century, Chibi-Usa-chan was being plagued with nightmares that nearly killed her?" Ami explained. "Do you remember learning how those nightmares were about Black Moon killing her mama?" She looked at us, with a dead serious expression crossing her features for a moment. "I believe that those nightmares are exactly the ones plaguing Mako-chan, except with something different, which I don't have a clue of. Do you have any ideas?"
"Makoto is jealous of you and Taiki," Minako began. "She loves you!"
"And how do you know that, exactly?" Ami inquired.
"Well, I saw her storm out when she saw you slumbering on Taiki's shoulder," Minako offered. "She seemed angry and was really jealous. There must be a way to fix these dreams."
"Yeah," Chibi-Usa agreed, "but there's no WAY I'm going into Mako's subconscious mind. That's too scary, even for a fully upgraded Solar System Senshi like me."
"Mmm," Haruka began, with a nod. "There must be another way, Ami-san."
"Yes, going into Makoto's mind is very dangerous," Setsuna cautioned. "You could get yourselves killed."
"That means there must be another way of doing so," Michiru considered. "Ami-san, do some research on this with your Mercury Computer. There must be another way."
"Rei, you've been silent for a while," Ami observed. "Do you have any information on the matter that we may not have?" She nodded at Rei before grabbing her Mercury Computer to research other methods of healing Makoto.
"Yes, actually," Rei weighed in. "We - as in Makoto, Minako and I - went to a confessional in Elysion, within the church. She confessed to marrying Motoki for the wrong reasons. She married him because she had thought that you and Taiki would get together and fall in love, and that Taiki would replace you in regards to a potential lover. She admitted that she had heard you talking to Taiki after their marriage about possibly getting closer with one another, getting to know one another. She took this as you having no need for her, so that is when her jealousy spiralled out of control. She began hating the mere thought about you being for everyone else. She thought you two were close enough to be lovers. That was what lead up to her having that outburst at seeing your head lain on Taiki's shoulder." She paused to take a breath and sat down. "She really loved you, Ami," Rei added to her statement and pursed her lips.
"Oh, I didn't know of the confessional," I admitted. "I only knew of her wanting Ami."
Ami looked up from her Mercury Computer and sighed, satisfied with what she had found on there, or seemingly so. She grimaced at read the article to us. "So, apparently, the only other way to wake her from her slumbers is to convince her that any treason I committed was blown out of proportion," she stated. "But how? Makoto could be dead any minute now."
"Just do all the sappy romantic things that they do in movies!" Minako suggested, with glee.
Ami's face was growing increasingly red with the pressure and stress. She shook her arms like you would when there was water on them and you were too lazy to use a tea towel. She looked at Makoto and back at us, frowning. She couldn't figure out what to do, which was apparent with her stressed pacing across the room. She scowled at her Mercury Computer and stared at the article, before shutting it down and trying to bury her nose into a book as a distraction, just to pass some time. She looked at me with stressed tears in her eyes and ushered me over to where she was sitting, and we watched Makoto. She was a sad sight, shivering all over the place.
"Mako... Mako... Mako-chan!" Ami walked up to her and shook her in her fit of stress. "Wake up, please, just WAKE UP!" She was down on her knees, as if she were praying. "Oh Goddess Selene! Mako, wake up! Please, just wake up! Trust me, I love you, I really do. Taiki-kun and I are just good friends, I swear it!" Her eyes were bleary as she rested her left hand on Makoto's right hand. "Please wake up. I really love you, Mako-chan! When will you realise that? I only want to be close with Taiki, but not in the sense of love. I leant on her shoulder and slept because I didn't want my head to crash against the wall! Please." Ami was in a fit at this point.
We all watched as Makoto stirred and looked at Ami with weak tears in her slightly open eyes. She gave her a weak smile as she tried to raise herself out of bed. She looked at Ami again and pecked her on the cheek. I smiled at the sight of the two together, they seemed like the perfect fit for one another.
"I love you too, Mi-Mi," she finally said, looking up at Ami. "I married Motoki because he looked like my sempai and so I could let you move on. But I still remember you asking me to dance all those years ago."
"Now, what about that mysterious Senshi?" Hotaru asked.
"Oh yes, I wonder about her, too," VesVes admitted. "Let's get the rest of our comrades together and discuss her."
