Fear took over the little 10 year old'S body and even thought she found herself safe and sound at home, Kousagi could not shake away the feeling of panic. One minute she had been out having fun, another minute she found herself falling in a black hole only to be taken to what seemed like home - and it was just an illusion, a mere,  terrible illusion.
She could not exactly remember what had happened to her, but she knew that a battle had happened,and she knew that Sailor Moon and Sailor Venus had done their best to protect her.
But once again, she had had what Jadeite called a "panic attack". Her breathing became uneven, she cried her heart out, and couldn't speak for a few minutes. Sailor Moon's good heart and loving soul made her safe again. No one was like Sailor Moon. No one was able to make this little girl feel as loved and safe as Sailor Moon did.
Now, at home, unable to sleep, and with the knowledge that she hadn't been the only one to suffer these attacks, and that other people had been dragged to Black Holes, Kousagi wept to herself, careful so that neither Jadeite or Leto could hear her.
She knew who was to blame for everything that happened to these poor souls. She had caused this chaotic event when she decided to seek help from people in this world. Despite what Puu said, she knew she was at fault somehow. She should be punished, she did not understand why no one ever blamed her.
The chaos was still going outside, with the Senshi uniting their powers and attempting to track down those Black Holes and see if they could close them. People were still missing, and she did not know if they'd come back.
"Onegai, bring everyone home safe. Mama, papa, if you can hear me in heaven. Tell the Gods to have mercy." She begged quietly, tears streaming from those beautiful blue eyes.
She took hold of the necklace she wore around her little neck. Before that moment, Kousagi hadn't had the courage to try it out. It was supposed to show her best memories in life, but did she want to remember what it was like before this misery? She hadn't been keen, but at that moment, it seemed like what she truly needed.
Stardust from another galaxy, huh? She slowly got up from bed, trying to be silent so no one would notice her. Walking past Apollo had been hard - yet somehow she managed to avoid his barking, he simply glanced at her before dozing off again. She closed her eyes, holding that necklace tightly.
Opening it, she sprinkled some of that stardust on her, excited to see what her happiest memories would be. Surely, she would find peace upon recalling those days.
"Leeeeeeeeeeto!" She giggled softly, running after the kitty cat. What a silly little cat - she liked her friend so much despite the allergies.
Luna gave them both a disapproving look, but they continued with their playing until Mamoru's voice could be heard.
"What did papa say about running around the house?" He spoke, raising his brow above his glasses.
"But you said I can't play outside while is snowing." Mamoru had said it alright, but glancing outside, he realized that the worst of it was over. Now the flakes were small again and they wouldn't have trouble if they went outside.
Agreeing that the worst was indeed over, he stood up and took her hand. "Bundle up. We'll play outside!" He announced with a kind smile. Kousagi threw her hands up in the air and the duo with Leto ran outside.
"AAAAh!" Mama Usagi was so clumsy, falling on her butt in the fluffy snow as she carried groceries, accompanied by Chibiusa, who teased her mama playfully. The two of them put the groceries away but soon joined father and daughter in their outside activity.
"I love playing with you, mama!" She hugged Usagi, her teammate in snow ball war.
Usagi held her extra tight. "Can I tell you a little secret? To me you are just like a snowflake - unique and unmatchable. No one else is comparable to you. Don't forget that." She spoke kindly, well aware that her daughter deserved better treatment than she got from her firneds.
Chibiusa took her hand and guided her to another side of the garden and the two decided Snowmen were lame. "Lets make a snow senshi!" Chibiusa spoke decisively.
Pitch black. Everything went pitch black.
"Never will you live like this again
Forever your soul shall grieve
The death of those who you deceived
The voice came from herself. She could hear herself saying those words, almost as if two of her lived in the same body. "No!" She cried out. "I am good! I am a snowflake!"
"N-no! Please, stop!" Kousagi desperately sprinkled that dust again, hoping it'd bring a beautiful memory.
Instead of those happy days Leto told her she'd remember, it was almost like a movie; Kousagi saw every single death she had witness, every failure, every distortion she had caused in all universes, and finally the ultimate destruction of her world.
A pain unlike any other was experienced within her heart. A scream, piercing and deafening escaped her mouth, her core felt as if it had been entirely ripped apart.
She heard it in her mind. Kousagi fell to the floor, unconscious, a horrible energy taking over her body.
If anyone was to find her, they'd see that her mouth seemed glued together, preventing her from speaking. They see her eyes, now cold and impenetrable. Kousagi Tsukino was gone.
