*Note: Washu's thoughts Ryoko's thoughts
Chapter One: Rejection
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Ryoko sat in the warm water of the onsen. She was trying to avoid Tenchi and Ayeka after their run in this morning, so she knew she would have to leave before to long.
"Why am I so surprised? I've known this was the way it would be since I got back," she asked herself.
Maybe it's because you love him the thought appeared in her mind and she instantly identified it.
Damnit Washu. How many times have I told you to stay out of my head?
I lose count. Well, what are you going to do now, Little Ryoko?
Stop calling me that.
You didn't answer my question.
I don't know. Leave probably.
Yeah, that's what I thought. So there's nothing I can say to get you to stay?
Not really. No.
Well, good luck then.
Wait, you're not going to try and stop me?
Not if this what you want...
So you don't even want me around.
Now Little Ryoko, that's not what I said-
STOP CALLING ME THAT
With that Ryoko broke their connection. Permanently.
She sank lower into the water. Why did everyone hate her? Ayeka wanted her to leave, and had told her so in so many words. Tenchi was so desperate for her to leave that he gave her other gems back to her so that she now had no reason to stay. A small part of her mind, or was that her heart, told her that that's not what he meant by returning her gems. That, despite his announcement of his engagement to Ayeka, he might still have feeling for her. God, how she wanted to believe that, but she had seen the proof with her own eyes. Tenchi didn't want her, and why would he, when her own mother wanted her out of her life.
Oh well she thought as she mentally called out to Ryo-Ohki. You win some. You loose some.
********************************************************************************************
Wolverine stood in the garage of the school, staring at the motorcycle, trying to decide if he should get on it and leave again. It would be so much easier.
Marie, his Marie, had chosen that boy over him. What was that kid's name anyway? Oh yeah. Bobby.
Why? Wasn't he good enough for him?
But he realized that it wasn't fair for him to blame Bobby of Marie. If it was anyone's fault it was his own. Marie was so young. She had her whole life ahead of her and if they were together, she would spend most of it waiting for him. He couldn't ask her to do that, and he knew how upset she would be if he left again. "Shit," he said as he walked out of the garage and towards the mansion.
"You're going soft."
He stopped suddenly, as his eyes caught something in the bright noon sky. What the hell was that?
