From Antartica to Okayama Part 1

Author's comments: Remember on Tenchi in Tokyo where Fujisawa from El Hazard is the teacher? Another Pioneer/AIC character makes a cameo...BTW, this isn't the Tenchi in Tokyo universe, it's just an example of my point.

Part 1: No Need to Explain
"I just can't....I'm sorry mother, I can't do it!" the thoughts of USSA student:
Akari Kanzaki, who couldn't make it through another backbreaking day of
training and taking abuse from her coach and friend: Ichino Yanagida. Tears filled
her eyes at the thought of being laughed at for coming in last at another sport.
"They think I'm some kind of screw-up, well I can't take this anymore." She took
shelter inside her 'Akari House' from the snow, even though she could barely make it out on her own. This WAS Antartica after all.
A snowstorm began, it was furious. Too furious, not even Ayla or Ichino could
stand up to it. She refused to come out of her Akari house until the storm died
down, and even inside the box she felt the stinging pain of the cold against her
innocent body. "I think this is the end." she took preparation for her supposed
death, her mother would be waiting for her in eternal bliss. The storm began to die
down. Was she dead? The storm died down all of the sudden and she didn't feel
so cold. Maybe the transition from life to death was easier than she thought. She
peered outside of her Akari House to see she was on top of cement stairs. Akari
threw the box of off her and looked around. To her left was a big house by the
river, a full 180 degree turn lead her vision up the stairs to a shrine. All around her
was pure nature, some how strange but somewhat a soothing
atmosphere. "Is this heaven?" she mouthed to herself. She began to explore the
unknown terrain which changed into a jog by her own force of habit until she was
stopped by an old man wearing a shrine outfit. "Are you lost little girl or have you
come to pray at the shrine?" he asked gently, Akari felt bit assured by the old
man's presence. "Can you tell me where I am?" she asked meekly. Katsuhito
replied in two ways "Well if you want to know what this place is, it's the Masaki
shrine. Or if you lost your way, you're in Okayama." Akari kicked a pebble down
the stairs. "You seem lonely. Did you run away from home?" Katsuhito asked
curiously. "You could say that. I just seemed to lose my way around and..."
before she could finish, Katsuhito quickly offered hospitality "You must be
hungry, I'll take you to the house." it has been a while since Akari last ate, and of
course she'd have plenty of time to explain later. As soon as the two have gotten
inside the silence she enjoyed was broken. Bickering upstairs, explosions and
whirring coming from the closet. The only thing that looked normal in the least
was a little girl cooking. Sasami was about to call out 'meal time' but then the
brown bunny-haired visitor in a physical education outfit caught her eye. "Oh, I
see we have a visitor." Akari passed back a small wave meekly. Ryoko jumped
out of her daily fight with Ayeka to check if it was Tenchi who came back from
his chores. "Who's the kid?" she asked, she teleported to get there and she was
floating mid-air. This shocked Akari but she looked around noticing everyone
else's reactions were as plain as day "How is she doing that?" Sasami giggled at
Akari's reaction then explained to Ryoko for her. Ayeka dashed down the stairs
"Lord Ten---oh, just a little girl. If you don't my saying so, who are you ?" Akari
grew tired of explaining herself, it began to wear out. Ryoko's stomach growled
"Enough of that, let's eat!" "Why? I want to find out who this girl is!" "Who cares
about that?" "I do" Akari was about to attempt to resolve the conflict, but Sasami
held her back "Don't worry, they fight like that everyday."
