story is my original creation and is copyrighted by me. Please don't copy it and
claim it as your own. This is now an A/U story in regards to 3 items.
Though this is based on the T/U universe. The idea of the cabbit crystals in the
Lake is from the Original OAV series, as well as the mother/daughter
Relationship between Washu & Ryoko. Tenchi does have the
Light Hawk Wings but only discovers it's use in this fic!
There will be references of Clay in the Original OVA,
but this is a T/U Based fic! Ok, on with the Fic.
It should last from 4 to 6 chapters. This story will be revised!
This is in a Mixed Script format.
"Children of the Goddesses"
Chapter 2: Realization & Response
Nagi was thrown from her command chair with a jolt.
Ken-oki made a sharp
banking turn and headed in the direction of the Sol system.
Nagi:" Ken-oki what's wrong with you? Why are we going there?"
Ken-oki:" Ciao, Ciao, Ciaooo, Miya!"
"Are you insane! I don't want to go near her or her cabbit regardless
of any
distress call, besides Washu and her other friends are there to help,
they don't
need......"
Ken-oki: "Ciao, Ciao, Ciaooo, Miya, MIIIYYAAA!!"
Nagi: "She's what? That can't be? She wouldn't have let that happen!"
(Now bewildered & concerned)!
"Well,... nobody will try to kill Ryoko but me!" (With renewed vigor)
"Full speed
Ken-oki!"
As they headed for earth, Nagi was going over the latest events of
her encounters
with Ryoko. Lately, she helped Ryoko. But, why? She was her greatest
rival,
her biggest Bounty, her top goal, yet she helped them inadvertently
at that nightclub.
Yes, she knew they were running i. Then, at the Beauty contest, and
finally off the Planet Jurai
with Ken-oki disguised as Ry-oh-oki!
It had been... fun... to help lately. But she was her rival. True,
not the most wanted criminal since the pardon for her help against
Kagato, but
she was still her rival. Then why did she want to get to earth as fast
as
possible, to stop someone from killing Ryoko? She sat confused in Ken-oki's
command chair, pondering this as she reached Pluto's orbit.
**********************************************************************************************************
Washu had been tracking Nagi several parsecs before she reached our
solar
system. Her anticipation could be described as both giddy and fearful.
Washu knew
that Nagi would react in one of 2 ways, either she'd attack Washu and
try to kill
her, or she would sit stunned, slowly become more depressed and lose
her
bearings. This was typical of her own reactions to momentous situations
and she
had seen Ryoko react much the same way. Either way, she asked for the
family to be
ready. She would meet her alone in the back yard as she planned. The
message to
Ken-oki was urgent & scary. Washu, using her great scientific skills,
and her
links had convinced him of Ryoko's and Ryo-oki's utter peril, as well
as the
assumed demise of the rest of the Masaki's.
She knew that Ken-oki had at least a grudging respect of the people
that
Ryo-oki lived with. Yet the urgency had swayed his emotions, which
was
Ryo-oki's safety. That was what Washu wanted.
As the Cabbit ship entered Earth's atmosphere, all was prepared.
Ayeka, Tenchi, & Ryoko, with the others waited in the house.
Washu was sitting out on the patio area waiting for her wayward
daughter knowing that she'd have a chance if everything went as planned.
She let
out a sigh as Ken-oki appeared over the lake and suddenly appeared
before her with
Nagi landing on her butt behind him. Washu then opened a portal and
told the
cabbit telepathically that everything was OK. Ry-oh-oki was in the
portal that she
just opened to Washu's left.
As Nagi got up, realizing she was tricked, she pulled out her power
lasso and
headed for the diminutive red headed girl in front of her!
Nagi: "What the hell were you thinking? Do you know what I'm going
to do to you!"
Washu:" I don't think so! (In her Kawaii Voice) You see If this is
a ruse, and it
is, wouldn't I, The Greatest Genius scientist in the Universe, not
be prepared
for you, Nagi!" (She then hit a key on her holo-laptop and all of Nagi's
weapons
disappeared)
Nagi Very Angrily said: "Give them back or I'll tear you apart with
my bare hands!"
Then Nagi's legs froze in place just after Washu hit some more keys.
Washu: "Now that I have you undivided attention" Looking at A Furious
Nagi in
front of her. "I need you for a job, a bounty of sorts. Would you be
interested?"
Looking at any change in Nagi's face to gauge her response, it
came quickly.
Nagi: "Are you out of your mind! Why would I take a bounty from a friend
of my
greatest rival?"
Washu: "Because.... it has to do with your family, your "real" family".
Letting
the words sink in.
Nagi: "What are you talking about, I have no family, I was born at
an orphanage
on Klastern II."
Washu: "You said you were an orphan? what if I tell you that I know
who your
mother is, that I have located at least one sister, and possibly another
sibling,
would you still be interested?"
Nagi: Now growing concurred. "Why would you want to tell me this, I
don't
understand?" Nagi was now confused.
Washu: "I owed you for helping me with Ryoko after you found her on
her ship.
(As the 2 women were talking, the whole conversation was being shown
on the
living room TV where the rest of the family was watching, Ryoko sat
up at the
mention of her Name)
"If you hadn't called me when you did, she would be dead! Tenchi and
the rest of
the family would have been devastated!" (The Whole Masaki Clan reacted
with
disbelief and slowly all turned to look at Ryoko's Reaction). As the
realization of her words
came forth Ryoko stood up and stared at the 2 women in the patio in
front of her.
tears slowly ran down her cheeks, as first Tenchi, then surprisingly
Ayeka came up and slowly
moved her back towards the coach, sat and stayed with her as the rest
of the
conversation continued holding her hands. The rest of the family slowly
looked
back to the TV after they witnessed Ryoko's reaction. Ryoko would talk
to them
later of her apparent resurrection .
Nagi: "But, she's your friend, right, she needed help, and I can't
have an opponent
be dead before they face me!"
Washu: (Loudly)" Oh cut the crap Nagi, Do you want the job or not?"
Nagi: (Startled by Washu's loud retort, she made up her mind to get
to the
bottom of this!) "I want to know why your trying to help me, the real
reason, NOW!"
Washu: (She knew that pushing Nagi's buttons would get her this type
of
response) "All right, I'll tell you why, (pausing for around 10 seconds)
because I AM YOUR
MOTHER!!" Nagi Looked Stunned!
Nagi: (took 2 seconds to respond) "WHAT? YOU MUST BE OUT OF YOUR SPIKY
HEADED
MIND!!"
Washu: "And I have Proof!" (Giving Nagi her most serious and sincere
look)
"She threw a file of papers to Nagi. After she picked them up she started
to look
through them. Washu then explained the story she had given earlier
in the day to
Ryoko. As Nagi was listening and matching up the facts from the papers
with the
information spewing forth from Washu she started realizing the truth.
Nagi: "What?!?!? How????"
Washu: "Aren't you listening, I said that that Jerk Dr. Clay had stolen
my ova and
the fetus who is you sister to get back at me for being Valedictorian
of our
Graduating class at the Science Academy." (After a pause) "Clay then
took one ova
and tried to copy my experiment with the fetus. That's where you came
from.
Nagi: "Wait, let me get this straight, I was a science experiment,
I wasn't even
born naturally?"
Washu: "Well, in most of the galaxy now there aren't many females that
do it
naturally, the Jurians, The Malikites, the Megamians, all use artificial
means
to have a child."
Nagi: (Now showing anger and some tears) "But, they wanted their children,
you
gave up 3 ova, for your experiments, you didn't want me did you?"
Washu: (Looking very hurt & sullen ) "I wanted a child, but because
of my
experiments on myself" (she listed some of her abilities and powers)
"I damaged
my uterus! So, It wasn't an experiment, it was my attempt at having
a child of
my own. As I got my hopes up, Clay pulled his scheme. I didn't know
you were
even alive. Clay hid the fact by stating that the fetus and the ova
were destroyed
in a lab explosion. Grabbing her arm, Washu continued; "Don't you see,
I didn't even know you were alive, any of you.
I only found out about it this morning and told you sister....."
Nagi: Wait, what did you say, you told Who???"
Washu then released Nagi, she ran and picked the scientist up by the
collar. As
she demanded to know who her sister is?
Nagi: "Who is it Washu who?"
At that moment. Ryoko stood up let go of her friends
hands and teleported to the patio.
Ryoko: (Materialized behind Washu) "Let mother go Nagi, NOW!"
Nagi looked in her rivals face. The streaks of tears and the strain
of the
knowledge she knew now they shared made her concerned for her.
Ryoko: "I was that fetus Nagi, and I was as surprised as you.......
as well as
Washu!" (She emphasized that point!)
Nagi let go of Washu who fell to the ground and she just slowly sunk
to the
ground herself. She started sobbing quietly.
Ryoko then moved to Nagi's left as Washu sat down to her right. They
waited as
Nagi sunk from her knees to her stomach, and put her face on the ground.
Washu finally
guided her to her lap and started stroking her hair and said "We are
here for you,
we will get through this. We ALL will get through this"! Ryoko started
slowly
holding her arch rivals hand between both of hers, squeezing so Nagi
knew she was
here for her, as she had been for her off Jurai.
Ryoko: "I can't believe you saved my ass back there, I guess it must
have been
something in the back of your head...."
Nagi: (Suddenly she shot up from Washu's lap pushed off of both of
them and
staggered back yelling, "I'm an experiment" repeatedly. she ran towards
the
shrine, when he heard Washu in her head.
Washu: ["You are not an experiment, you are my daughter as much as
Ryoko. Clay
will pay for this! I didn't get the chance to raise you Nagi, nor Ryoko,
please
if I only knew who you really were .....".]
Nagi: ["I am still not really a person, I....."]
Ryoko: ["Don't you think I have the same story as you, sister. I was
as much an
experiment as you, but I'm willing to give Washu a shot, because she
did tell
you was she was planning on having us as her children regardless of
the
experimentation. She was only trying to enhance us and it worked didn't
it!"]
Nagi: "Well," Now starting to understand what Ryoko said, she stopped
running as
Washu and Ryoko caught up to her on the shrine steps. The rest of the
family, now outside on the
patio looked on as the 3 women talked.
"Did what Ryoko said, was it true? Did you mean to have kept us, and
raised us? Asked a now quiet Nagi?
Washu: "We now have a mind link, I'm going to open my mind up,
you can both
search and confirm what I said!"
Washu prepared for their onslaught as both Nagi, and Ryoko search throughout
her
memories of 20,000 years and finally found that she was telling the
truth. Washu
then staggered but both of her daughters caught her arms to steady
her.
Both now looked at each other, then at their mother. A realization
of their
"New" relationship started dawning.
Then awkwardly, slowly gave each other a hug and all 3 started crying.
They were a
family, after 2000 years and despite Clay's meddling, they were finally
a family.
*******************************************************************************************************
2 weeks after the eventful Habuki Reunion, Nagi and Ryoko had slowly
come to terms
with their new relationship. Still not totally at ease with each other,
but both
trying to connect more with each other and their mom.
Washu for her part took her adult form to ease both her daughters reactions
to a 12 year old mom. The rest of the Masaki Household help as
they could.
Ryoko and Ayeka kept on fighting over Tenchi, with Nagi slowly realizing
why they did.
But, her interests were focused on Washu, Ryoko, and when they could
go after the other sibling.
Washu for her part had been researching on where had the 2nd ova gone
to until,
she got a hit on her computer search.
Dr. Clay had dropped out of site on the opposite end of the galaxy with
a
dimensional experiment. the catalog of equipment had an ova stabilizer
as part
of the official inventory. Washu surmised that if this was the spot
that Clay
had disappeared to he took her ova with him. It was certain that he
had at least
a pocket dimension in mind for his experiment but for what reason?
She didn't
know. As she was pondering this Nagi telepathically called Asking a
Question;
Nagi: ["Well Washu, what have you found out?"]
Washu: ["Well, little Nagi (Nagi hated that being called Little by
her mother as
much as Ryoko )" it seems I have found where Clay went. He has my last
ova with
him, at least as his supply list states. I'll call your sister and
get the family
together."]
Nagi: ["Washu, none of the others are family!"]
Washu: ["When you've been here long enough and seen the care everybody
has for
each other, yes even Ryoko & Ayeka, then I can say they are family!"]
Ryoko: ["Nagi, she is right, so get with the program!"]
Nagi: ["Sister or not I don't like including more than us!"
I'm having a hard enough time as it is to accept this!]
Ryoko:[" Just get to the living room and Chill out Sis!"] Nagi grudgingly
complied.
The whole household assembled in the living room. Ayeka Tenchi and
Ryoko on the
couch, Mihoshi and Kiyone on the love seat, Katsuhito near the kitchen,
Nobuyuki
opposite the kitchen, Nagi standing dejectedly next to Washu's lab
entrance,
Sasami, Ryo-oki, and Ken-oki on the floor next to the couch, while
Washu was in
front of the TV!
Washu: "Ok, everyone listen up, I have found where Clay disappeared,
its located
on the other side of this galaxy. I have a suspicion that he made a
pocket
dimension where he took whatever he was working on and quite probably
my child."
Tenchi: "Well, When do we leave Miss Washu? (Remember she's still in
an adult
form)
Washu: "I would not ask all of you to come, this is More a matter for
myself
Ryoko & Nagi."
Tenchi: "Miss Washu, ( He gave her a look conveying we're going whether
you like
it or not!) When do we leave?!
Washu: "Well we all can go, except Sasami, Grandpa, & Father.
Sasami: "How come I can't go?"
Ayeka:" In case this goes bad, there must be someone to carry on the
Royal Jurian
Family line. Do you understand Sasami?"
Sasami: "Ok, though not happy about this guys!" She said frowning.
Washu: "Tell you what, I'll leave Ryo-oki & Ken-oki With
you!"
Ryoko & Nagi in unison: "Mom, Why?"
Washu: "Because Were taking a mega-cabbit ship!"
Kiyone: "A What???" (all had a questioning look on their faces)
Washu: "Does everyone remember the crystals cabbits in the lake, the
ones who fed
on all the carrots in the store room last year?"
(All except Nagi nodded yes) "Well, I combined 3 crystals to from a
Mega-Cabbit
ship that is 3 times as big, and 3 times as fast."
Nagi: "Why such a large ship?"
Washu: "Glad you asked Little Nagi" (She scowled at being called little
again) "so
I can bring the dimensional tuner modified to enter that pocket dimension
of
Clays!"
Kiyone: "You mean using that machine that sent us into those different
worlds?
I for one am not thrilled to ride that again!"
Washu: Well, yes and no. I combined it with the time machine we used
to go back in
time to save Tenchi's Mother, Achika."
Ayeka: "May I ask why you combined those 2 machines?"
Washu: "Because (With a sad look in her eyes) with the new data I have
found, my
3rd Daughter and her children will die soon unless we can pull them
out of that pocket
dimension!"
There was a loud gasp as all of the Masaki clan were shocked at Washu's
news,
more so Nagi & Ryoko!
Ryoko: "How can you know so much Mom?" (Nervously)
Washu: "Because of this! She hit a button on her holo-computer and
a picture came
on the living room TV, of a large mechanical being fighting another
mechanical
being in a city where the buildings recede downward to protect itself.
the First
Being was mostly red and carried a large weapon,
The second was white and had a more reptile like head. Then the screen
changed as
within it showed a girl with long red hair seemingly in control the
being,
then the 2nd being shot the first & the girl was seen dying!
Washu: "That was my grand daughter Asuka, (Washu is now sobbing) this
world was
created by Dr. Clay to achieve perfection at any cost." (Now angry
through the
tears)
Tenchi: "What sort of man would sacrifice children like that?" he said
while fuming.
Washu: "That's why I need to have all the equipment to save her, her
brother,
sister, and my daughter!
Ryoko: "But, how do you know all this detail?"
Washu: "I found his project file, it's call Evangelion: Neo-Genesis!
He's trying
to become perfection, which means he wants to become a god, a perfect
being!" (Now with a
look of rage) "We will stop him and get my children out or I will personally
carve
his guts up!"
She then collapsed and continued to sob, in a flash Ryoko and
Nagi were
at her side surrounding them were the rest of the family all with determined
looks on their faces!
Well chapter #2 is done, please Read & Review. I love the characters
on Evangelion,
but I detest the back story & ending. Next is the trip there and
some more revelations
from some of the family! Plus later more beings get involved,
some not usually nice!
Chapter #3: Preparations
