It was a fine day in Okayama, Japan but Washu Hakubi was witnessing none of it, she was too busy working on her newest experiment; a time machine! Unfortunately, she couldn't get the damned thing to work properly. It was spewing smoke, sparking, and her patience was wearing thin. All of a sudden, it made a large POP!
"Ready! Aim!-What the Hell?" A tall woman with black hair stood in the center of the room, accompanied by a young man and a rugged girl dressed in wolf furs. They looked dazed. The young man knocked an arrow and aimed it at Washu.
"Wha? This is not what was supposed to happened!" Washu sighed over another failure, then turned to her audience,"Okay who are you people?"
"I am Lady Eboshi of Irontown!" the taller woman spat "Who are you?"
"Well, doncha know?" Washu retorted "I'm just the Greatest Scientific Genius of the Universe!!!"
The wolf girl, San, turned to the young man "Universe?"
The young man, Ashitaka, shrugged, but lowered his arrow.
"Well, uh, Greatest, uh...Scienti-i-ific?"Ashitaka started.
"Washu! Call me Little Washu!"
"Oookay...Little Washu, why are we here?
"Well," Washu grinned "My little experiment went a little, very, uh, wrong..."
Suddenly aware that Eboshi was aiming a primitive rifle at her forehead, Washu promptly raised her hand, sending it flying to a wall. as it smashed into the glowing machine, they heard another pop. This time, three young men hopped out.
One, with a long brown braid giggled hysterically "Damn! And Barney was just about to reveal the amazing secret! Oh, maybe this was the secret? And where's my coffee?"
Another boy, with godawful hair, looked around bewildered "Huh?..."
The last, a Chinese teenager by the name of Wufei observed the gender of the surrounding people "Women! Of all people! Weaklings!"
This remark was greeted by Lady Eboshi whipping out her sword and shoving it menacingly to his throat.
"Ah! Okay! Hmmph." Wufei growled, backing away from the blade.
"Can we go get some coffee?" Duo broke in casually.
Washu giggled and motioned them all upstairs to the living room.
"What's with the hair?" Eboshi inquired, peering at a teenage girl's spiky cyan hair.
"For your information," the girl, Ryoko, replied hotly " Its the new...rage, nowadays."
"Since when did Ryoko ever care about fashion?" a purple haired teen snickered.
"Hey! Can it Grape Head!" Ryoko shouted at the princess, Ayeka.
The two snarled at each other.
"Hey! Cool it ladies!" Duo intervened, placing himself between them with his hands on his hips.
Ryoko yanked his braid hard and floated up to the rafters sulkily. Ayeka flounced over to the couch and sat down in a huff.
"Come here, Ryo-Ohki!" a blue haired, pink eyed girl cried, chasing a rabbitish looking creature into the room and sending it scurrying up the nearest person's leg, who happened to be San. Now, San was familiar with the resident tree spirits, kodama, in her forest but she didn't expect the animal to lick her nose, hop onto her head and chirp a cheery 'miya!'.
"A cabbit," Washu immediately explained. "That one is Ryo-Ohki."
San just raised her eyebrows slightly. Ashitaka smiled. Lady Eboshi was impatiently tapping her sword against her hip. The boys glanced at each other, Duo still smiling.
Sensing the boredom and confusion, Washu piped up "Well! Maybe we should go somewhere? The movies?"
"Yeah!" Sasami agreed " Can we go see Highlander! Its playing today, at two o'clock! I can close my eyes during the icky parts! Puh-lease?"
"Yeah!" The rest of the Masaki household cheered. Except for San, Ashitaka and Eboshi of course.
In a fury of activity, they prepared to go out to the theater after a dinner at the local pizza parlor.
