( Setsuna's 'house' )
As Setsuna and Shingo pulled up to her 'house' all Shingo could do was gape. He slightly resembled a big mouth bass and as Setsuna glanced over she gave a discrete smile. Wouldn't do to ruin her image she chuckled to herself.
"You can open your door you know," Setsuna looked over with a raised brow.
Shingo slightly blushed in embarassment and opened the door. He got a better look at the mansion. It was pale blue in color almost a lilac color. At the top of the second floor of the house you could see where a large balcony wrapped around the house. From where he was, Shingo could make out a table and a few chairs. The house was surrounded by many trees and flowers with a few ivy's scattered around the front.
Shingo glanced back at Setsuna. For some reason he trusted her with his life and knew Usagi trusted Setsuna with her life as well. Shingo met Setsuna's eyes, " Usagi will love it here." He stated it with such sincerity.
Setsuna nodded her head, "Yes, she especially loves the garden in the back. I suspect you will as well." She gave Shingo the tiniest smirk. She thought he looked so cute when he looked like those fish on t.v. those people caught. "Please follow me. I will show you Usagi's room so you will know where she will be when she gets here. After that I will show you to your room then make us some dinner. I am quite hungry and I can imagine you are as well."
"Why does she already have a room here?"
"She stays over on occasion and sits in my garden to think or to keep me company. I live here by myself."
"Why?" Shingo immediatly looked sorry for the question. He knew it was impolite to pry into people's personal lives.
As Setsuna lead Shingo through the first floor she pondered the question herself wondering if she was truely alone. She had never felt alone here because Usagi had been around since she was a toddler. Setsuna glanced back at Usagi's younger brother, " I have never really been alone. I have know Usagi since she was a toddler. I used to babysit her and always thought of her as my little girl. She used to call me Sets-mama because she couldn't say my name. I was given legal custody over both you and Usagi in case something happened to your parents. Officially I am her godmother." Setsuna's face darkened a little, " Of course I never thought I would get custody over you two to something like this."
Shingo nodded his head in undertsanding. " Do you mind if I call you Sets-mama?"
Setsuna's heart almost stopped. He had asked with such a pleading and scared voice that it nearly broke the stoic time senshi. She turned around and bent down and crushed Shingo in a hug. " You may call me whatever you like, but I would be honored if you called me 'Sets-mama'," Her voice was thick with emotions that made it a little huskier.
Shingo started to cry and hugged her with all he had. " I am so scared Sets-mama. I want Usagi to get better." He started to sob and shake.
Setsuna picked up the 12 year old boy and rocked him back and forth."Its alright my little boy, all will be okay," She continually whispered that into his ear trying to soothe his pained soul. She knew it was a matter of time until the boy broke down. A lone tear slipped down her cheek when the boy slipped into an exhausted sleep. She craddled him in her arms and took him to the suite next to Usagi's room and layed him down on the bed. when she tucked him in she kissed him on the forehead and left the room quietly. Once in the hall she sighed and leaned against the wall. She had always thought of Usagi as her own duaghter. She helped raise the hime-sama in both of the young girl's lives. She stepped away from the wall and headed to the kitchen. She was hungry and knew Shingo would be as well when he woke up. She smiled a little when she thought of how her stoic reputation would be ruined because of the two little miracles in her life. She knew the outers would continually tease her about it when they got here. She sighed once more and shook her head.
( Friday morning at the Hospital)
Setsuna and Shingo slowly walked down the corridors of the hospital making their way to the ICU. Once there Setsuna stopped out side of Usagi's room."Shingo, could you give me a minute with musume?"
Shingo nodded his head and sat on the chair next to the room door pulling out his gameboy.
Setsuna arched her brow and reminded herself to grab that from him before she dropped him off at school. She turned around and made her way into the room. She paused when she caught site of Usagi. She was not prepared to see her in that condition.
Usagi was paler than normal with multiple tubes coming out of her body. Her head was turned to the side but it looked to Setsuna like that was the only move Usagi had made all night. Setsuna silently walked to Usagi's bedside and pulled up a chair. When she sat down she started to brush Usagi's bangs away from her face. "Usagi, my little musume, hime-sama, you need to wake up now if you want to see your little brother today before I take him to school."
Usagi's head turned over to the other side trying to avoid Setsuna, "But Sets-mama I don't wanna go to school," she slurred out in her sleep.
Setsuna chuckled a little and then smiled sadly. It had been 3 years since Usagi had called her Sets-mama. Setsuna leaned over and kissed Usagi on her forehead and sighed. " Shingo is gonna come in here and wake you up if you don't get up for me." She had to chuckle at that because Usagi's eyes immediatly flashed open.
Usagi looked sharply at her Sets-mama, "You wouldn't, would you?"
Setsuna laughed and shook her head no.
Usagi sighed then winced in pain. It all started to come back. The memories of the day before and how she ended up in the room she was in now.
Setsuna saw the pain in Usagi's eyes and reached over to the call nurse button. After she hit the button she reached down to stroke Usagis' face but Usagi flinched away from the contact. Tears started to leak out of Setsuna's eyes at that. She knew she shouldn't hurt from that but she couldn't help it. Usagi was her musume and it hurt her heart that she flinched away.
Usagi saw the pain flash in Setsuna's eyes and felt bad, but the thought of anyone touching her freaked her out. Tears also started to fall out of Usagi's eyes," I'm so sorry Sets-mama," sobbed Usagi.
"Oh baby, my musume, what did he do to you?" Setsuna asked herself. Usagi had never shied away from Setsuna. " Its ok little one, I'll just wait for your hugs if thats what it takes. I love you like my own little girl you know and I will always be there for you senshi duties or not, you are my musume before my hime-sama."
The nurse walked in at that moment and added a small amount of codine to the IV drip. " I'll send an attendant in with some broth and jello for you to eat for breakfast," and then left the room.
"Sets-mama, Mother wanted you to bring the outers here because I am out of action and Tokyo will be vulnerable without me she said, but I know she meant because I will be more vulnerable now and is worried about me."
" I thought she might want to do so, so I called them last night. They were in America so it was during the day for them. Musume we don't have much longer before I have to take Shingo to school so I am going to bring him in ok?" Setsuna knew it might not be just for the fact that Shingo was a boy, but he was younger and was her little brother so it might not matter at all.
Usagi nodded her head and prepared herself. Setsuna stood up and went to the door and stepped out. She shut the door behind her so she could talk to Shingo alone for a minute.
"Shingo, Usagi is up now and would like to say hello before you go to school. But don't touch her," Setsuna's voice hitched at that and Shingo looked slightly puzzled," she doesn't like to be touched just yet. She is still very scared of human contact, but she would still like to talk to you."
Shingo nodded his head and slowly stepped to the door. He took a deep breathe and then went in.
Setsuna stayed outside and sat down to give the two siblings some private time. She knew it would be hard for both. She saw a bright flash in front of her and looked up. She immediately dropped to one knee.
Queen Serenity chuckled. Old habits did die hard. " Sit, Setsuna. I am not here to reprimand you or anything. I am here to give you something." The Queen smiled down at Setsuna. " I would be honored if you adopted my daughter so she could be your musume for real."
Setsuna gasped and started to cry. She had no idea that her Queen knew that she thought of Usagi as her musume. She looked up at her Queen beseachingly, " I thought you never knew. I tried to hide it from you because I thought I was betraying you somehow."
The Queen smiled sadly down at her time senshi. She had always known. Usagi was the only one to ever make the time senshi's heart melt. "Oh Setsuna I knew it from the day you first saw her as an infant in the palace. I saw it in your eyes and I always approved because I knew I wouldn't be around always. It made me happy to know she had her 'Sets-mama' around," The Queen smirked when she saw the blush spread across Setsuna's face. She then chuckled to herself and wished she had a camera to catch it on film so she could embarass the time senshi at a later date. It was well known that it was hard to embarass her and even better when it did happen. Oh well there went her black mail matterial. " I must go now, but I had to let you know I approved of you and I hope you cherish her."
Setsuna looked up with a smile and tears in her eyes, " I always have, and always will cherish her. I will take care of her as best I can my Queen and try to be a good mother for her."
After another flash of light the Queen once again fadedd back into the heavens.
