Natalia walked over to where Yuriko was and looked at her with curiosity and skepticism. She couldn't believe how crazy the night had become. She was just supposed to come over, hang out with Reiko, maybe find out some way to bring Yuriko with her to Selene. However before anything could be done, it all went south very quickly.
"God in heaven, why me?" Natalia said to herself as she then quietly chuckled.
"You know what's funny? I haven't believed in any god for a long time not since I was.....well actually since I was this age I am now." Natalia said looking over herself.
"My whole life has been just so complicated, it seemed like that time in my life was the easiest. The world was a lot easier for me to understand then too. I almost wish I could think that girl again." Natalia said making an off-hand comment.
Before she could do anything else, she had a headache and the room spun as she fainted onto the floor.
"Natalia, Natalia...wake up...are you okay?" Reiko said to Natalia as she slowly opened her eyes.
"Oh heaven above me. The lord has sent an angel for me, tell me fair angel, have you come to take me away from this devil of a church?" Natalia asked Reiko holding her hand and looking at her with, hope, love, and longing.
"Angel? Devil Church? Natalia what are you talking about?" Reiko asked.
Natalia looked around at her surroundings but nothing looked familiar to her.
"I'm....I'm not at the church anymore. You've rescued me from my punishment! Oh thank you my graceful angel!" Natalia cheered as she kissed Reiko on the lips.
"Uh....you're welcome." Reiko said as she was still confused why her friend was speaking the way she was.
"Excuse us, Natalia, but....what year do you think it is?" Mia asked.
"Why the year of our lord 1821, of course." Natalia answered.
"Okay...it seems like she's having some kind of....past life regression or something. Maybe Yuki had something to do with it." Zack surmised.
"Oh my! What a beautiful babe you have here." Natalia said with admiration and pure love in her voice.
"Thank you, she's related to me." Reiko said.
"Ah yes, I see the resemblance. She has your radiant beauty." Natalia complimented as Reiko blushed and Zack and Mia thought this was weird and confusing.
"Tell you what, why don't you two go have a talk out back, while we watch the baby." Mia suggested as she took baby Yuki.
Reiko guided Natalia out the back door as Zack and Mia began to talk.
"Should we call for help?" Mia asked Zack.
"Maybe, but we don't know who Mrs. Tozawa's friend is and I really don't want to try and explain magic that probably regressed woman's family. All we can do is let this play out and Yuriko will probably reverse it before we know it." Zack hoped as the three of them made their way to the backyard.
They quietly opened the backyard door and Zack almost called out to them, but Mia halted him from doing so and instead left them out there alone.
"So....you say we've known each other for....quite some time now?" Natalia said trying to understand what Reiko was telling her.
"Yes. We've talked at school, and you are....mostly shy around everyone. But I know you to be smart, caring, but above all....beautiful." Reiko blushed as Natalia lifted up her head and looked into her eyes.
"The night stars....they shimmer in your eyes like no woman I've ever seen before....I can't explain it. But somehow you are an angel sent to me." Natalia said as she and Reiko embraced in a passionate kiss.
