Author's Note: 100-word drabble based on the scene in "Broken Heart, Broken Mask" where Victoria wakes up from her coma after being shot.

UNCONSCIOUSLY CONSCIOUS

     "Zorro is only a part of our past now."

     What did Diego mean?  Whose past?  Victoria felt even more disoriented than when she first woke up.

     Why would Diego believe so adamantly that he knew what Zorro would say or think?  It was as if he had spoken to the masked man while she had been unconscious, recuperating from the bullet wound she had received protecting Zorro's life.

     Or was there another reason why Diego thought he could speak for Zorro?  One that she didn't even want to consider, if only because she wanted it so badly to be true.
