Truth behind the Dreams- okay in this one it might get a little confusing since in all honesty Im making it up as I go along so please forgive and again I do not own saber Marionette J or J to X or any of the kind.


Lime started to walk the streets she was looking around with a big grin on her face, thinking happily simply because last night she slept in the arms of her true loved one, sanato.......SANATO?

"Wait a minute,what name was I just thinking about?....Otaru...yeah Otaru!!" Lime looked at the sky

"Otaru.....oh wait! I forgot the whole reason I came out here I have to get Otaru a gift! Tonight is going to be the first anniversery between me and Otaru since he first woke me up......" Lime started to remember the experience.

~Flashback~

Otaru was getting up after falling down a long slippery ramp."Where am I?" Otaru saw a pod."What's that?.....! a..a marionette?......"Otaru took a closer look "It looks almost...human.." Otaru walked up to the pod and placed his hand on the glass. All of a sudden the pod started to flash and a lot of smoke and Light illuminated from it. Otaru fell on the floor. "what's going on?"

Right out of the pod came out Lime...she had on only her undersuit and her hair was loose her eyes glew only a green and nothing else was added on to it.

"Who are you..?" Otaru asked stunned

'Who..Who are you?" Lime looked straight at him..."My name is Otaru...Otaru Mamiya". She started to stare into Otaru's eyes to figure out who he his and all Otaru could do in return was stare right back into her's. At the next moment Lime was screaming out in pain, since her data was being transferred to her and once she fell onto the floor Otaru rushed over to her.

"Are you okay?!" Otaru begged for a response. When Lime started to move Otaru showed a sign of relief and then Lime sat up.

"Thank you..thank you for waking me up! I Love you-hahahhahahahah"Lime was saying all this while grabbing onto Otaru.

"What's with this crazy marionette?"

~END OF FLASHBACK~


"Otaru....hehehe I have to get you the best gift ever!....I wonder what that could be....." Lime said this while running off.

"............Lime please realize soon" The figure walked away.


"Hai!!!!! Thank you!!!!" Lime was pointing at a picture,It was a picture of fireworks."This is what Otaru took me to,I had soo much fun! and it was same day I met Yumeji that day was a GREAT day!"

Lime walked out of the store luckily the shopkeeper love Lime soo much that she didn't have to pay for it, because you know Lime had wasted all her allowence on candy that day ^__^.

"Hey Lime!" Lime turned around

"Oh hey Yumeji, you back already, was it fun?"

"un huh- my brother got sick though...he ate too much food at my dad's house but he said seeing his neighbor is going to make him happy"

"oh..well Otaru is not going to be happy hehehe"

"Hey Lime what you got there?" Yumeji was pointing at the scroll painting

"Oh this?...it's a picture of the fireworks.....the day i met you" Lime handed the picture to Yumegi

"Wow! this is pretty...but why you did you get it?" Yumeji handed it back to Lime

'Simple...For sanato!" Lime was shocked

"Sanato?..who's that Lime?"

"Ummm ohh nothing I was thinkning about a cartoon hehehe....It's for Otaru of course!" Lime was thinking hard about what had just slipped out.

"Ohh..heheh funny I do that too anywayz I'm going to go play with the Ponta you comming?"

'Umm sorry I need to do stuff"

"okay..bye Lime!"

"Bye!"



'Lime your finally home, come sit down lunch is almost ready" Cherry said from inside the kitchen

"Okay yeah food finally!!!......ummm actually can't cherry can you save some I have something to do..thanks bye!!!!!!' with that Lime ran out the door carrying the picture of the fireworks and the picture of Otaru and all three girls.

"Otaru is going to love this! even though this is about only me and Otaru, Bloodberry and Cherry are apart of me so i should include them as well!" Lime started to run down the streets and when she turned the corner she bumped into something that was really hard.

"Owwww...that hurt!" Lime sat up rubbing her head."Oh where is it?"Lime started to look franctically for her misplaced pictures.

"Is this what you are looking for?"said a voice. Lime looked up instantly and saw both pictures she grabbed them and pulled it to her chest"Thank you Thank you!" Lime looked up to see who she was thanking.

"Sanato......"Lime whispered

"hmmmm...oh hey Lime...rushing as usuall....well keep safe" Sanato started to walk away

"wait....."Lime was in a whisper.Sanato pretended not to hear and kept walking.

"WAIT!!!!!!" this got Sanato's attention as he turned around shocked as he looked at the girl standing in front of him her face was completley flushed she seem to have both the emotions of anger and happiness but right now she was clearly angry.

"How dare you........."She said below a whisper and with pain

"how dare I what?"Sanato had a smug look on his face and he began to walk closer

Lime stood fridged"Act as though you know me......you don't know me and yet you act like you do?..one minute your nice and the next your cruel...I don't know how you are to others but to me your cruel!"

'Lime.......your beautiful you know that?" He gave a big grin.

'w-h-h-h-h-what?...why?"Lime was now confused

"I have my reasons...dream girl" and with that Sanato walked away

"...................."Lime was too shocked to talk she put her hands up in protest but couldn't say one word...".dream girl...he was the one in the dream...does he know?...or was it by coincidence?......Im sooo confused........"Lime got up completely."Otaru...his gift" Lime brought the pictures to her chest and ran off past the corner into a small spot where she started to draw.

"Hi,everyone I'm home!!!"Otaru said while closing the door behind him.

"Welcome,Master Otaru dinner is almost ready"

'Thanks Cherry"

"Hey welcome back O---ta--aru!" Bloodberry was obviously drinking too much sake again.

"Bloodberry....oh what happened now?"

"What do you mean Otaru.*Hic* I am perfercfectly-fine hahah *Hic*" Bloodberry fell to the floor

"Okashi is moving out of town again....food is done!"Cherry replied

"oh really?.....great yum i am starving!....?....hey where is Lime she would have agreed or jumped on me by now" Otaru put is hands to his chin.

"I don't really know she came in earlier then left with the picture of all of us Master Otaru"

"really?...well she is acting strange lately-"

"Oh geeze Lime is a little kid *hic* kids will be kids, worry about me Otaru....let me console in you Otaru......^_~"Bloodberry went closer

"umm Bloodberry"Otaru started backing away

"Bloodberry..get away from him you booze hog!"

"What did you say ?!" Bloodberry raised her fists"I have you know im a lot better than you and your under develpoments!"

"How dare you!!!!" cherry started to throw around food and bloodberry returned fire.

"I'll get you" both of them screamed

Otaru just sat down and ate his food usually Lime would do something to stop them being angry at each other and instead.....be angry at her."Lime...hmmmm"

A few minutes later you can hear squeaky shoes heading towards the door in a greeat amount of speed. Bloodberry and Cherry stopped their fightning and Otaru looked up from his food and stood up.

"Squeaky *Hic* Shoes......"Bloodberry said out of no where

"A lot of wasted motion....."Cherry replied

"Lime!"Otaru ran to the door.he opened it thinking that Lime would jump at him seemingly he opened out his arms but when he looked Lime wasn't there. Bloodberry and Cherry heard the sounds too,so why wasn't she there. Otaru turned around and gave a look to both Bloodberry and Cherry but was surprised when they weren't around.

"What the-"at that moment he heard a sound and when her turned around he instantly fell to the floor with a great amount of pressure on him.

"Otaru!!!!!! hai!!!!"Lime screamed

"Lime...what's this about?"Lime was grinning a lot and that made Otaru forget about the pain in his head.

"Otaru lookie!" Otaru looked up at where Lime was pointing at it had a big sign that said "happy anniversery!!"

"What...wait how did that get there...?"

"we put it up silly" Cherry said

"yeah Otaru Lime told us too once she came home she would distract you and we would have time to put it up."Bloodberry added it seemed that she wasn't drunk anymore

"Wow..this is great and all but...what is the occasion?"Otaru was confused.

Lime got up and was about to cry"You forgot......?"

"Forgot what?...what am i missing?"

"Otaru how....how could you!!!!!" Lime ran out of the door in neckbreaking speed and in doing that she dropped her gift for Otaru.

"Lime!!! wait!!!!" Otaru was about to go after her but then saw the rapped gift."What's this?"

Otaru opened it up it was beautiful."Did Lime draw this?" It was a picture of cherry,Bloodberry,Lime and himself hugging each other..and the background were...fireworks?....

"Otaru you probably don't remember but today is a special day for Lime"Bloodberry said

"Indeed Master Otaru...Today was the fisrt time you took Lime out for a full day of fun and the first time she met and saved Yumeji's life......that day was.."Cherry stopped because Otaru got the point.

'The day I took her to see the fireworks...the day Yumeji could have been dead if Lime didn't save him.....how could I have forgot?!!!!! I have to find her!!" Otaru was about to run out the door when Bloodberry grabbed his arm.

'No Otaru....she need time alone...."

"That's the last thing she needs..she thinks I don't remember..that i DON"T CARE!!! I have to show her otherwise I'll loose her! so let go of me!" Otaru pulled away and Bloodberry let go gently. Otaru ran out fast and went to the place she always goes the Forest......

Lime was running fast and before long she ended up in the forest."ohhhh...Otaru....."Lime was sad and tears were threatning to come down. "No!..Otaru didn't mean it im sure he rememebers Otaru is sweet and nice,and caring and-"

"And what....?" a voice said

Lime turned around she knew that voice....Sanato "What are you doing here? Are you following me?"

With that sanato pulled back fast then stopped and smiled. "maybe.....so what else is so great about Otaru Mamiya?" he said this as he began to walk closer.

"You were listening to me?"Lime looked to see his eyes she didn't couldn't tell what mood he was in right now.

"Yes..sorry..hehe...I was just interested as to why you would say so much nice things about a guy who just forgot the first "date" you two shared...." Sanato smiled and stopped walking and looked up

"date?....No! it wasn't a date....."Lime looked down.

Sanato looked at her and began to grow sympathy eyes for her...or was it hurt? he started to walk towards her and then he placed his hand under her chin and made her face him, but her eyes were still down fighting back tears.

"Lime....look at me.."Sanato voice was very soft and soothing.

Lime looked at him as he asked, his eyes were different neither happy nor angry.he was sad...

"Why......"was all Lime could say being captivated by his eyes.

"why what Lime?....why act Jealous....why be mad and then happy out of nowhere?..."

"yea....why act like that...?" Lime let down a little of her restraint.

"Well....when someone is angry because things went wrong and then they see you..why wouldn't they be happy?...and why wouldn't they be mad that your taken?...and that they have no chance with you? Sanato said this with honest and a little giggle in his voice stateing that the answer was obvious.

"what are you saying that I make people happy and that your angry because I love Otaru....but you should be happy I love someone right?"Lime was looking staright at him and holding him as well now.

"wrong.....why should I be happy when I love you....and you don't love me back?"

Lime broke....he loves me..I didn't know that..is he telling the truth..his eyes seems sincere.....I love Otaru right?....can I love two people?...Bloodberry loves Akashi and Otaru..so...No!!! I love Otaru.;....I love Otaru...I love-.

"your thinking about what i said?" he had a smile on his face then he grabbed her close and but his face close to hers about a few inches away. "Thinking about loving two people?"

Lime was confused how did he know her thoughts...her dreams?! who was he? why was he here?!

Otaru ran into the forest about to scream Lime when he heard her and was relieved but then when he walked to the sound of her voice his heart broke..there in the forest Lime was being hugged by another man! their faces where only inches away!..what was Lime..his Lime doing?!

Lime heard something but didn't want to pay attention since she was too busy thinking about this man that was wrapping her around his arms.But sanato did pay attention.

"Who's there?! show yourself!"Sanato demanded more than questioned.

Out of the bushes came the figure at first Lime was not paying attention but when the grip loosened from Sanato she looked up to see who was this person who had an affect on Sanato.

Lime was stunned noooooo"Otaru......."Lime was staring at him.

Otaru just looked straight at Lime even though Sanato began to talk..his face was angry and it seemed to have a little wetness to then but the type to be out of anger or betrayal..Lime looked further down at what he was holding..it was her gift the picture about the fireworks....he came to apologize..she knew all along he would..she just forgot when........ Sanato!

"Did you hear me? Mamiya!"sanato was repeating himself and getting frustrated at the fact that he wasn't being heard.

Otaru didn't pay attention to one word this man spoke..he didn't even care about the name just about the fact that he was holding Lime in his arms and it didn't seem to be only on friendly terms..why would Lime do this....he decided he would discusss it at home.

"Lime....we are going home..now" that was all Otaru said as he turned around.Lime began to follow but then sanato pulled her back.

"Lime doesn't have to go anywhere she doesn't want to be at understand?"Sanato said fiercely.

Otaru didn't even turn around."Please....Lime Im sorry...i remember..and I love the drawing...but why...why not trust me to apologize for making you upset and instead you...."Otaru turned around to see the guy holding onto to Lime pulling her away from Otaru "instead you go to..this guy and seek comort with him....." Otaru looked down.

"Otaru...no it's not like that!"Lime was pleading and looked up at Sanato saying that he should let go but Sanato's eyes said he wasn't giving her up without a fight.

"1/3 of Love is not enough!" sanato said angrily

"What?!"Otaru looked up stunned.

"you have not 1 but 3 marionettes!...you can't just split your heart into three pieces and expect them to be fine with that...even if they are apart of the same program and are meant to join as one to symbholize one real human female they are still seperate individuals with seperate hearts...all that belongs to them not you Otaru Mamiya!!" Sanato said this with a great amount of passion.

How did he know so much about me and my sisters?......who exactly is sanato why is he doing this....Otaru......I...

"I understand...and I know that.......but I...I love them all.....and just can't...."

"YOU SEE THAT IS YOUR PROBLEM YOU'RE TO KIND HEARTED YOU DON'T WANT TO CHOOSE THE ONE YOU TRULY LOVE IN EXPENSE THAT THE OTHER TWO WILL FEEL HURT!!! IF THEY TRULY LOVE YOU ALL THREE OF THEM-"sanato looked down at Lime when he said this"then...then they would accept your choice and be happy for you and the one you choose to spend the rest of your life with...." sanato turned away......"Lime go home......hopefully i will see you tomorrow....goodnight...and Otaru-Sanato turned around and started to walk away "Think about what I said....."

"I.....I...."Otaru couldn't say anything.

Lime watched him and decided it was too late to be out "Otaru.....let's go home and eat......." Lime started to walk but Otaru walked really slow not really thinking about the directions he ws taking but knowing Lime was guiding him.

Once they got in Cherryand Bloodberry both screamed out.

"master!!!"

"Otaru!!!"

They both looked at him and saw his face then looked at Lime and watched how she just walked towards the stairs about to head up to the bedroom.

"Lime?"Cherry asked but no response came

"leave it be.come on let's clean up this mess and help out Otaru to bed..."Blodberry said

Otaru managed to raise his head up and get a look at Lime before she was up the stairs..."Lime......Im sorry...i didn't know....."

Lime didn't sleep in her usuall bed last night she asctually went threw hangata's passage to Otaru's room and went to talk to hanagata.

"Lime?..what in darnation are you doing here?" Hanagata was in his Otaru pajamas

"hana can I please stay here?...please?"

"Why of course not-"hanagata looked at Lime's depressed face and gave up... out of all three of the marionette's even though she was his biggest rival for Otaru's heart...she was the nicest...and Yumeji's friend."Im sorry Lime...sure you can....the guest bed is over there."hanagata said pointing and having his head down

Lime looked up."Oh thank you hana!." Lime walked to in direction he pointed at

"hmmm..Lime what have you done to me?....."hanagata laughed as he went back to his bed and dreamt of Otaru.

That night Lime couldn't sleep but she kept having visions...the way Sanato held her....the kiss in the dream that same warmth he had in the dream as in the reality...and then visions of Otaru..first him happy not knowing why she was happy....then of him being confused...then of him being angry..then of him being disapointed..then of him being...sad...one thing Lime hate most was seeing people sad......she was sad too..."Otaru......." she finally fell asleep.

The same was for Otaru he kept thinking about the way Lime ran out of the house....the way she was in the arms of that guy..which he still didn't know the name of.... the dream they both shared..the kiss...the things that guy said without knowing him and yet he looked about the same age as him......1/3 love?.....was he really only giving 1/3 of his love to each of his marionettes....he has to choose one...out of three?!...he has been with them soo long and lost them once he wasn't going to loose them again he couldn't do that.....they would undersrtand.....would they if i told them....who it is that i love more? would they understand?...wait! I love one more than the other two?....is that possible is that true?.......who?.....he thinks I love someone more.....Cherry is good at being a mother..she has that whole motherhood inside of her....and Bloodberry is tough and beautiful....boy is she a woman...and she is perfect for virtue...and Lime...she...there are not enough words to describe Lime...she is everything....funny..sweet..innocent..being that she is innocence.....gorgeous.....friendly.....playful.....and soo.simple minded...she just growing up....and I love her...I want to be there for her...but the question is now that I guess i answered who is it I love more...is that...does she love me back?...I know they say they love me all three of them....but do they really mean it? Otaru turned his head to look at Bloodberry. If she really meant it would Bloodberry have fallen in love with Akashi....is the same going to happen with Lime?!.Otaru closed his eyes and immediately the picture of Lime and thay guy holding each other raced through his head,then the picture of the highschool and the kiss. No!!! I can't let it happen I love Lime too much I have to tell her!......Otaru turned around and was satisfied by his decision.....and soon fell to sleep. Not knowing Bloodberry and Cherry heard this all and slept with smiles on there faces.

"Soon Lime....you would come to understand...your dream is not just a dream but a reality......you love me and I love you we are meant to be together Lime...for the sake of the world the truth will come to your dreams....and you must choose me when the time comes......when all time is over and lost......" Sanato got up and with his black outfit and black shiny hair he was barely noticiable in the dark night but when his eyes shimmered with that blue coldness again you knew it was him, and with that he took off into the night.

okay that's all sorry about that if you don't like it I tried my hardest look for the next one and learn about what Sanato is talking about choosing and Time lost forever...and will Otaru finally tell Lime his true feelings....nextstory {hehehhe} "Prophecy of Love and Death"
