Author's notes: Yes this my seem a bit crappy, but hey, give me a break, this is my first attempt at a fanfic in years. Well, this is the first part of a series, so I hope you enjoy. If this seems cheesy, I apologize, I'm new at this. But hey if anyone would like to give me some help, it would truly be appreciated. This story examines the thought of whatever happened to Washu's first child. Did the child grow up and set out to find Washu or what? Well, I thought it would make an interesting series. Enjoy ^_^
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
It was a 'normal' say like any other at the Masaki household. As usual, Ayeka and Ryoko bickered with one another, Washu was busy working in her lab on some new invention, Mihoshi was fast asleep on the couch while her partner was away on some intergalactic police conference. Sasami was in the kitchen preparing dinner while Tenchi was in the field, cultivating the land as always with Ryo-Ohki by his side. "Ah peace and quiet" he sighed, wiping a bit of sweat from his brow. This was his only solitude from the busy activities taking place in the house. Between being studied, being pulled apart, not to mention having his privacy invaded, working the field was the ideal solitude from it all. As he stool looking about the field, a falling object caught his attention. "Hmm, what's that?" he though as he shielded his eyes from the blinding light of the impact. The shockwave shook the surrounding area, catching the attention of those present in the mile radius.
"Oh no" Tenchi said, dropping his plowing tool and running towards the crash site. Ryo-Ohki followed behind as fast as her legs could take her. The others in the house too ran towards the source of the shockwave fearing the worse. Only Washu remained in the house, since her lab technically didn't feel the initial shockwave. Tenchi made his way to the crash site, looking though all the rubble. Soon he heard the cries of Ryo-Ohki as she sat next to a small figure. "Hey, hey, are you okay?" he said shaking the figure slightly. From what he could tell, the figure was female and still living, but not conscious. She seemed to move only slightly and moan before going completely limp in his arms. The crash seemed terrible but not too much damage was done to her miraculously. She was wearing a pilot's suit with a helmet of some sort, which covered her entire head. The pilot's suit was black with red and gold designs. Tenchi paid little attention to the design as he tried to free the girl from the rubble which held her captive in the burning matter. The others soon arrived, watching Tenchi struggle to help the girl out. "Lord Tenchi what's happened?" Ayeka said running towards him. She was soon stopped by Ryoko who smirked arrogantly at her.
"Where ya going princess?" she said.
"Lord Tenchi Needs my help. Out of my way you...you.. OAF!"
"Grr, an oaf am I? Well I'll just have to see abo-"
"Stop it you two and help me out here" Tenchi said with an urgent look upon his face, "She may be in need of help, so can you help me get her to the house?" The two nodded and began helping Tenchi as much as possible. Mihoshi stood at the edge of the crater left by the impact. "Oh dear, I hope she's okay" she said, biting on her nails. They managed to get the crash victim free. "Now help me get her to the house" he said, carrying her on his back. "Great another house guest" Ryoko mumbled to herself, disappearing and reappearing along the trail. Ayeka and Mihoshi followed close behind, not wanting to be burned by the raging fire.
(At the house)
"What's all the noise about?" Washu said finally emerging from her lab. Her pinkish red hair trailed her as she was dressed in a white lab coat. "How's the Number one scientific Genius in the Universe supposed to think with all this noise?" The household seemed to pay little attention to her as they gathered around a new figure whom seemed to be unconscious on the couch. "Hey I think she's coming around" Sasami said holding Ryo-Ohki in her arms. This seemed to catch Washu's curiosity as she joined the group. Who was she? Is she injured? Where did she come from? These questions ran through her mind as the girl moved her head slightly then jumped up. From her hand the girl produced an energy sword much like Ryoko's. She alternated the swords end from person to person as each one jumped back. Ryoko, too, produced a sword while Ayeka called upon her guards to shield her from the new stranger.
"Now now, don't worry, we're not going to harm you. I am little Washu." Washu said, stepping forward towards the girl. She held her sword to Washu then held it down somewhat, still keeping a 'look' on Washu. "Now then, just put the sword away, we don't want to harm you. We just want to know who you are and if you're okay, that's all." The girl held her sword still clinched in her hand then finally called it back to her. She took another look around at all the faces, some of which seemed a bit uninviting at first.... and second...glance. Placing her hand upon two specific point on her helmet, pressure could be seen escaping it's holdings while the girl began to take the helmet. Freeing herself from its confining holdings, she swung her blonde and red hair and placed the helmet upon the table directly in front of her. She looked to be a bit younger than Ryoko in appearance, but one could never tell. Her emerald green eyes scanned those present once again, making notes as to the possible threat of the one holding the energy sword and the one with the purple hair. The blonde didn't seem to be much of a threat as she was dense, while the little girl was too cute to do anything to anyone. The young man, however, seemed to catch her eye as she noted his handsome face and seemed to hold a kind of innocence about him. She proceeded to answer Washu's query after examining all in the room. "My name...is Wa-Oka..."
"Good, good, you know your name...now if you please step this way, I'll examine you to see if you have any serious injuries." Washu turned to her lab door, with one hand behind her back. "Oh, Ryoko, Ayeka, would you please not scare her, she is a guest...for the moment...hehe" Ryoko growled at Washu who smirked back at her. She powered down her sword and Ayeka called off her guards. "Now" Washu conitued, "If you would Miss Wa-Oka, walk this way, I can get the examination under way."
Wa-Oka slowly followed Washu, careful not to keep her back turned to the crowd. The say she figured, Washu wasn't that much of a threat as the rest could be. After all, she was only about 13 in appearance. "Don't worry" Washu reassured, "they won't bite...for the most part." After few prolonged minutes of hesitation, Washu extended her hand and dragged Wa-Oka into her laboratory. The other's watched as the door disappeared.
"I hope Little Washu doesn't make her another guinea pig of hers" Tenchi said scratching his head. Ayeka and Ryoko looked at one another then to the lab. "She's beautiful..." Ayeka said.
"Yeah...looks a bit like Washu"
"Do you suppose she's related?"
".....Nah...but I hope she doesn't go after MY Tenchi"
"YOUR Tenchi?!? Who said anything about him being YOUR Tenchi?!!?!"
"Oh no" Tenchi said, holding his head in his hand, "just when things were starting to get quiet."
(In the Lab)
The inside of the lab reminded Wa-Oka of something from a sci-fi film. There were many vast tanks containing creatures from other worlds long thought to be extinct forever, and other that were so bizarre that even she didn't know what to classify them as. "Interesting" Wa-Oka noted, observing every turn and landing she made as Washu led her deeper into the facilities, "You have a complete biometrics lab in such a small space? How did you manage this? Did you use a type of dimensional warper which changed the physical perspective of reality in a small space?"
"Hmm, interesting theory, but it's not necessarily true. You seemed to posses a lot of knowledge about transdimensional Physics. Now sit here while I examine you."
Wa-Oka sat upon a cold metal table. Washu disappeared for a few moments, only to re-emerge in a nurse's attire. "So, while I examine you, why not tell me a bit about yourself," She said, pressing a button which strapped Wa-Oka to the table, "you seem to posse knowledge about a dimensional thresholds, mind telling me where you studies?"
"Well, I did attend the Royal Science Academy of Jurai where I graduated with 3 degrees...one in Physics, another in Engineering and the last in Biology with a minor in music. I graduated in less than 2 years and became a head professor there....uhm...what's that for?"
Washu held some type of syringe in her hand, which appeared crude and unusually medieval. "Don't worry, this wont hurt....much...hehehe" Sweat began to form at Wa-Oka's brow as Washu came closer to her. "After all I need a sample to better analyze your current situation." Taking the syringe and withdrawing 3 units of blood from Wa-Oka, she inputted the units into another computer. The system started it's analysis of the sample as Washu encouraged Wa-Oka to finish her story. "Ouch...that hurt a bit...uhm, I was a professor at the Academy for sometime, finishing some work left behind a previous professor who left the academy some time ago...then they dubbed me as the greatest mind to ever walk through the hall of the academy, only rivaled by the previous professor whom I chose to complete the worked of and making quite a number of other innovations myself. You could say that I AM the number one genius in the Universe."
Washy cocked a pinkish brow at her as she said her latter statement. "Ahem...you do sound like quite the scientific mind, but I must tell you that you are NOT the number one genius in the Universe. Maybe in a galaxy, but most certainly not in the Universe. That department would be mine, though I think that the number 2 genius in the universe title is not taken." Turning back to the computer, she analyzed the information that the computer had so far. "I am Washu and the work that you completed at the Academy was left behind by myself. I didn't think half of the professors there could figure out my theories and equations, but it seems that I was mistaken." Tapping on a button, the restraints were released and Wa-Oka sat up, looking to Washu with perplexed look. "It seems like you're fine, just a few minor cuts and bruises, nothing too serious. You're lucky, though, that you were not severely injured. You should be-
"You're Washu? THE Washu who left the academy over 20,000 years ago??"
"Huh? Oh, yes that would be me, isn't it-"
"I've Finally found you!" Wa-Oka said, walking closer to Washu.
"What? What do you mean?"
"All my life I've searched for you...for answers to my life. *sigh* Even while living in my father's house, I've always felt different. When father finally let me attend the academy, it was there that I learned so much about you...you don't realize how much of an impact on my life you have do you?"
"I can only imagine."
"No...it's more than just work that I found there...it was more than science, it was more than a reputation...it was something much more than that. It's more than just a simple title...it's more than just a silly degree...no it's more than my life could ever...EVER give me." From her neck she removed a necklace with a crystal charm on it. Washu examined it closely to find that it contained a picture of a baby with blonde hair, a man with blonde hair...and herself. Washu's eyes widened as she looked up to Wa-Oka and then back to the charm. "That...charm...." Washu said, looking back 20,000 years ago, to a time where love blossomed brightly like cherry trees and happiness was all that mattered.
Washu remembered her only child that she bared herself for nine months. The baby's smile and coos of joy were all that were needed to bring up the spirits of her world. She was happy and nothing in the world make her think differently...until that day. Washu was coming back from a science theology when servants at the house sat patiently outside. "Sorry you can't go in." One of them stated. With all her being she fought to get inside the house, looking for her child and loving husband. Finally she spotted them in the backyard, servants talking to her husband. He turned and smiled at her, holding the child in his arms. She tried to reach out to them, but something held her back. All she could do was call out to them and plead for him to not leave. Her pleads here in vain as he simply gave her a smile of love once again and turned his back on her. Her last sight of her only child and her husband was the baby smiling back at her, holding its hand out for Washu to grasp.
That memory burned deep in Washu's heart as the pain began to resurface once again. Could this really be...her? Turning back to her computer, she checked the DNA analysis and compared it to her own. She just had to make sure she wasn't imagining things again. As she computer spit back the information sought by her, she turned back to Wa-Oka, trying to hold back her tears. The DNA analysis matched down to the percentage of half of her own genes. "Wa...Wa-Oka....it's really you....IT"s YOU!" Washu embraced Wa-Oka in her arms, no longer able to hold back the tears. She held her tightly in her arms, no wanting to let her go ever again. "Wa-Oka...Oh my sweet darling Wa-Oka...I thought I would never...never see you again..."
"Mother...." Wa-Oka said, crying as well.
That day, the lab remained locked tight til the morning. No one even dared to bother Washu figuring that the girl was injured and needed medical attention, something they could provide. And given Washu's facilities, it seemed that she would be recovering soon or become another guinea pig for study. Either way, no one dared to enter, just pass and wonder what Washu could have done to their new...guest.
