Ch 2
It was already past noon when Ryoko woke up. She threw on her blue-yellow striped robe and phased into the living room. "Washu?"
"She's in the lab, Ryoko." "Thanks, Sasami!" Anxious, she quickly walked into the lab.
"Washu?" called the space pirate.
"Ah, Ryoko. I'm glad you're here." the genius answered.
"Is Tenchi here?" She asked enthusiastically. She was looking in multiple directins with quick turns of her neck.
"No, He's out in the fields." said Washu.
"Damn…" she murmured softly. "How's-"
"He's doing fine, Ryoko." the red-head interjected. "He needed some stitches, some bandages, and most importantly he needed to rest. He should be awake by tomorrow."
"That's good to hear." she sighed, relieved. Ryoko felt much better. Tenchi praised her for this boy, so she wanted him to live. Just then, the door opened.
"Lady Washu? How is the young boy doing?" asked the purple haired princess.
"He's alright, Ayeka." answered Washu, looking over one of her elaborate machines.
"Well that's certainly good news." said Ayeka.
"Oh, Ryoko." said Washu suddenly.
"Yes, Washu?" answered an interested Ryoko.
"Lord Tenchi said that you two can go out for dinner tonight."
"Oh! Thank you." she replied.
"What dinner!?" erupted Ayeka.
"The one me and Tenchi were going to have last night!" she answered. "Ooh you no good thieving snake!" broke Ayeka.
"Back off!" shouted Ryoko.
"Girls! Lunch is ready!" Sasami's voice echoed through the halls of the lab.
"Oh! I'm starving!" Ryoko hadn't eaten since lunch yesterday. She teleported out of the lab quickly.
"Thank you for all of your work, Lady Washu." said Ayeka calmly.
"Don't mention it!" replied Washu. Ayeka calmly made her way out of the lab. Ryoko was done by the time Ayeka was finished slowly making her way out of the lab.
"Simply no manners." she insulted.
"Can it!" retorted Ryoko.
Ryoko went to her room to look for something to wear on her date with Tenchi.
"Hmm.. I don't seem to have any lady clothes…Oh!" She pulled out a black and red dress she hadn't worn in a while (The one she wore on her date with Tenchi in Tenchi in Tokyo). "This will be perfect!"
She spent all afternoon getting ready. She tied her hair up behind her head (see same episode) and was finally done when Tenchi got home.
"Do you like it, Tenchi?" interrogated Ryoko.
"You're beautiful, Ryoko." Tenchi answered in a very sincere voice. Ryoko could feel herself blushing, her face burning red. "Just let me get ready, alright?"
"Alright. I'll be in the lab.
Ryoko was still thinking about the boy.
"Any news, Washu?" Washu suddenly grabbed Ryoko by her neck, resting the space between her head and her chest her clenched elbows.
"Ooh! Why don't you call my Mom?!" she replied in her cutesy mom voice.
"Get off! You'll ruin my hair!" shouted Ryoko.
"Teehee! The boy is alright. He'll be awake by tomorrow." assured Washu.
"Good."
"Okay, Ryoko! I'm ready!" shouted Techi through the lab.
"Coming, Tenchi!" Ryoko ran out of the lab.
"She really does care for you, young one." Washu spoke blankly. Her clear, green eyes starring blankly out of the door Ryoko just phased through.
