It's unedited and well, in the middle so...

Usagi pulled at the cord to operate the illuminate, the dark gave way to the azure-blue lights. Her fingers were numb with cold.
"I'll be back," one of the tuatha guards told her. Usagi nodded, took out a strip of gauze and started to wrap it around her palm. She focused on the shiny surface before her and was startled to see a stranger.

The face was familiar but different, even her sigil looked different the gold colored crescent was colored with a patina of blue. And her hair--

It used to be longer, much longer. Now it was sheared past the nape of her neck, roughly cut. It was quite different to know and see how short her hair was. The color of her hair made her stare, it was no longer blond, reflected in blue but she knew from memory what color her hair had become. She had seen it once, twice, she had seen it on her future-- her future-never-to be self. From gold it was now *silver*.

But the real marked contrast was her eyes. Once so bright with life, now there were shadows in the flecks of her eyes. Eyes too old for such a young face.

That's it.
