LOVE IS BUT A DREAM
She watched from behind those bushes as they looked at each other and then suddenly, inadvertently, their lips touch, breaking Ryoko's heart. At first she was frozen to the spot and then a blazing harsh fire runs through her heart, making her angry. She leaps into the clearing, startling Ayeaka and Tenchi. Noticing it was her they quickly unwind from each others arms, but there was a smug smirk on Ayeaka's lips. Tenchi looked worried. Ryoko just looked pissed. There were tears streaming rapidly down her face and those beautiful yellow eyes glow with all the hatred in the world, her cyan hair looking even more messy as she stands there with twigs, leaves and dirt tangled into it. Her whole body shook and there were thin whisps of red energy rising off her body like auroma scents drifting in the air. There was silence except for the leaves rustling in the wind and cherry blossoms wafted in the air about her, seeming to swirl around her in a minature tornado. Tenchi was speechless, Ayeaka was conceding . Ryoko was the first to speak with a deep, trembling voice. "Why….." Was all she was able to get out. Tenchi thought she meant why not her but she wasn't through yet. "Why didn't you tell me you had chosen. How long has it been? How long have I been crooning over you and you and that Bitch were 'together? How long have you let me act a fool?" There was another long pause, the wind shifting their hair and clothes. Tenchi clears his throat, not able to meet those fierce eyes boring into his heart. "I didn't tell you or I was afraid you would break. It's been about two months now…Ryoko I am sorry but you have to understand…" "Understand what exactly?" She raises her voice to about a loud roaring sound, making Ayeaka and Tenchi cringe. "Understand that you get your jollies off on seeing me be stupid and naïve? Well good job Tenchi..you succeeded!" With that she lifts into the air, flying off towards the house.
