Through the Years: Spring Break special Chapter 3

By Agent Reptile

Ranma 1/2 and Urusei Yatsura, and all various in sundry characters found within belongs to Viz comics/video and Rumiko Takahashi (not mine). Wolverine, X-Men, and anyother Marvel characters which come along belong to (duh) Marvel comics (not mine). Tenchi Muyo and all various characters I pull from them belong to AIC and Pioneer (not mine). Gold Diggers belongs to Antarctic Press and Fred Perry (not mine). G. belongs to Hasbro (also not mine). Darkstalkers belongs to Viz comics and Capcom (you see a pattern here?). Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles belong to Mirage Studios (again not mine). Ran Okami (my character so ask if you want to use). As said in previous version Logan has been an X-man years before the others. Any other connection between X-Men: Evolution and this fic ends at that line as this is like the comics or the other X-Men cartoon from the 90's.

Tenchi Masaki could be considered one of the luckiest men ever to be born with all the attention he receives from a number of additively beautiful women from beyond the stars, but if you ever called him that he would go into a delirious fit of laughter from which no one could possibly recover. Fortunately for the heir to the Jurain throne, he was enjoying the brief respite from the chaos he deals with on a nearly daily basis. Said reason for this break? He was sitting in the cramped conditions of the back seat of his family's car situated between Ryoko and Ayeka, behind both his mother and grandfather, and it was made perfectly clear that neither girl had any reason to be upset a to who had more contact with Tenchi due to them both just as close to the young man.

Taking the moment of, at least partly, peace to catch up with some rest, you see Tenchi resting his head on the backrest and taking a nap. All things seemed to be peaceful, until the unfortunate event of the boy's head sliding to and fro as his father drove around a curve and....

"Oh Tenchi you don't look like you're comfortable...here just rest your head on my shoulder."Ryoko said softly, seductively, as she slowly moved herself just slightly enough to let her beloved's head drift onto the top of her shoulder. Knowing the habits of the most important thing in her life, Tenchi unconsciously started to turn himself towards Ryoko, starting to cuddle next to her as he was sleeping.

"Ryoko what are you doing?" Ayeka asked, slowly smoldering with a growing level of frustration.

"Oh nothing...just letting Tenchi get comfortable resting next to something a lot more comfortable than the *flat* and *stiff* headrest behind him. " Ryoko snidely commented.

"Are you insinuating something my dear Ms Ryoko?" Ayeka asked in a very stressed voice.

"No, just letting him get a better rest." Ryoko smiled smugly knowing very well that as long as her bout of words wasn't directly insulting to anything about her major rival, she was untouchable.

"Okay if that's how you want to play." Ayeka thought to herself. "Very well Ms. Ryoko, being an expert on the subject...since anyone who would touch you goes to sleep."

"Oh stow it princess." Ryoko said. "As if any man would ever want to touch you."

"Why you impertinent..."

"Enough." Achika Maskai groaned. Right now the Princess of the Jurains really was looking forward to finally reaching her sister-in-law's home and getting some space from the two most strident of Tenchi's female companions...or whatever you could call them. "We will be arriving at the Logan's soon so kindly follow my son's example and get some sleep."

"You seem to be a little high-strung my dear daughter. " Katsuhito said with his eyes closed and head held back as if taking his daughter's advice.

Achika looked at her father cold and hard, as if she was about to slap him. "A little high-strung? Father do you put up with the constant bickering of these two? I understand that Jurai is a polygamous culture, and that you and your sisters grew up with two mothers, but my grandmothers seem to get along very well. Ryoko and Ayeka, on the other hand, fight tooth and nail with each other over my son's love."

"Achika my dear just have faith that it will work itself out. And if it doesn't then well that's the brakes."

"I'm about tempted to ask Charles if I could throw those two into the danger room and force them to work together." Tenchi's mother said shaking her head.

Oh well it seems that things didn't change too much whether Achika lived or not.

"Breaker breaker this is the Pink Genius to Old Builder come in Old Builder." a female voice cried over the add-on CB radio on the dashboard. Nobuyu just shook his head and took the receiver off of its hook and pressed the button on the side.

"This is Old Builder here, how's it going back there Pink Genious?"

"Not too bad so far..bit dicey few miles back but we fixed the problem."

"Oh what'd you do?"

"We put Mihoshi in the backseat." the sarcastic voice now coming over the radio sounded very stressed and perhaps a little tired. "Sasami and Ryo-Ohki is entertaining her right now." Officer Kiyone said as she looked over her shoulder and took a deep breath as she saw her...cringe...partner completely distracted by the little rodent spaceship think in her lap.

"You know if we had really been thinking we could have just had Ryo-Ohki turn into her spaceship form and fly us to Tenchi's cousin's home." Stated Ayeka as she placed her finger under he chin.

"You're just now thinking of this princess?" Ryoko sarcastically remarked.

"She's supposed to be your starship Ryoko." the Royal's response was harsh and dry as a hot summer's day.

"As good an idea as that would seem Ayeka, the last time we did that we caused quite a bit of havoc. Not to mention the destruction that you and Ryoko caused when you crashed here." Achika said cutting off any future conflict between the two women.

"But it would only be one ship."

"Over a very public place where literally millions would see it. Col. Fury called after that and said that it was a nightmare disguessing what actually happened from the rest of the world. So we gave our word that we wouldn't fly over occupied airspace again."

"And yet Mihoshi still crashes into the lake without anyone taking notice."

"Well since we promised not to fly where we can be seen, Fury promised that anything that goes on at the temple is our business so long as it doesn't threaten Earth's safety." The eldest amongst them said.

"I've always wondered why he never bothered to check on us with all our guests and such." Mrs. Masaki said a she smiled.

"Well I did have to grease the wheels a little with some communications technology and such."

At this point at the S.H.I.E.L.D. Heliocarrier we find Col. Fury sitting at his desk with a cigar in his mouth while he was figuring out his brand new "toy" from the Jurains; a flip-up phone with built in camera and video player.

"I'd say the tech boys will be able to reverse-engineer our own in about ten years. Now if there was only some way to have this thing play my Marty Robbins songs it would be perfect."

"Colonel Fury we are awaiting a demonstration of the new equipment we got from the Jurains." a voice said over the intercom unit on his desk.

"Be there in a moment....hey you can play solitaire on this thing." It seems that the good Colonel will be occupied for a while.

Back in Japan we see the Logan family has been up for quite some time and the two children of the family were busy training in the back yard.

"HYAAA!!!" Ukyo said as she spun her battle spatula at her adopted brother's legs. Before the edge of the blade contacted with the male's leg, the Wild Wolf lept into the air and spun in the air kicking his "sister" in the shoulder. Ukyo rolled with the attack and arched her weapon laterally across Wild Wolf's chest, slicing his uniform.

Ran Okami was able to avoid having his skin sliced by a fraction of an inch, but it didn't save the front of his workout uniform.

"Wow Uchan you've gotten faster." Ran Okami said as he caught the spatula with his claws. Wedged right at the junction of the head of the blade and the end of the handle, the bones blades had successfully stopped Ukyo's attack dead in it's tracks.

"And stronger." Ukyo smiled as she struggled against her brother's blocking. So focused on trying to force her brother to submit, that she didn't see the smirk on Ran Okami's face. Forcing the spatula high over his head, Wild Wolf quickly retracted his claws and dropped to the ground.

Ukyo, not expecting the sudden lack of resistance to her attack, lost her balance and quickly found her blade stuck in the ground. Before Ukyo's body hit the ground, she found herself tackled to the ground on her stomach and her arm behind her back.

"But not necessarily more cunning." Ran Okami smiled.

"Ranchan you jerk. Get off of me." Ukyo cried, very upset at herself for getting caught so easily.

"Sorry Uchan but this training is supposed to get us ready for a real fight."

"Real huh." Ukyo smiled as she twisted herself hard elbowing her brother hard in the side. The attack didn't really do much damage, but it did give the teenage female the change to roll on her back and kicked Wild Wolf, hitting him in the back of his head. Startled, Wild Wolf was unprepared when Ukyo pulled her legs into her chest and then kicked her brother in the face, knocking him on his back.

"That real enough for you Ranchan?" Ukyo smiled as she stood up.

Most people would now be fuming mad, enraged even, but not Ran Okami. On the contrary he was smiling, beaming, with joy at the challenge now before him. Quickly spinning, Ran Okami sweep kicked Ukyo causing her to once more fall on her back.

"It will do Uchan." Wild Wolf jumped up to his feet as Ukyo flipped up on her hands and then to her feet. "Ready to go again?"

"Always ready Ranchan." The teenage brunett smiled as she pulled her spatula out of the ground.

Wild Wolf was in heaven as he and Ukyo continued to spar in the earlier morning light. Punches and kicks flew from the two teenage mutants narrowly missing each other by mere fractions of an inch.

"My Logan-kun it seems the children have gotten the day started early." Nodoka smiled as she looked out from her kitchen at the two sparring.

"Good, means I get more time alone with you." Logan smiled as he felt Nodoka's butt.

"Sounds like a perfect morning Logan-kun. But my brother will be here in five minutes, and once we start..."

"Let 'em wait, it's my house and I get to do what I want in it. Especially with my wife." Logan smirked.

Nodoka shrugged. So the kids and her guests were going to have a late breakfast, her husband wanted her company and it was her "duty" (see pleasure) to accommodate him.

Going a few blocks over we see another male with love on his mind....amend that last statement because "love" was the wrong word. Ataru was running on full lust mood and he was out on his favorite hunting ground and making himself a royal pain in the butt for just about every woman in the vivacity. With his signature smug expression gracing his distorted face as his thoughts had drifted off into the "illegal in 20 states" territory.

"Ataru you're a genius." the leach thought to himself as he strolled down the street. "Lum's so occupied with thoughts of her new friends that she won't notice that I'm missing." In retrospect it is easy to see that this plan had a hole in it so big that you could drive a truck through it, amend that you could fly a spaceship through it.

Now let us see just why this plan is going to fail miserably,

1. Ataru is so predictable that anyone capable of seeing the pattern in a Roadrunner/ Will E. Coyote cartoon could figure out what he was doing.

2. Lum may have have her new friends, the Logans, on her mind, but she isn't so single minded that she would forget about her one true love because of that.

and finally 3. Lum may forgive Ataru constantly but she has a fantastic memory and still hasn't made her boyfriend understand that making passes on Mrs. Logan was completely wrong and would not be accepted in the future...well that "point" was made by Mr. Logan earlier, but knowing Ataru Lum would have an excuse to zap him again soon enough.

And now that we mentioned the emerald haired lass from the star, we see that there is a shadow on the ground in the form of a woman's silo et slowly cruising just a few feet behind him and slowly closing the gap.

Ataru felt the air chill slightly as a familiar cute voice uttered his pet name behind him.

"Oh darling." As innocent and delightful as that sound might have been, it was an obvious voice of doom to the perverted teenager.

"AAAHHH LUM!" Ataru nearly jumped out of his skin as the tiger skin bikini wearing alien princess slowly floated in front of her intended, smiling ever so softly like the cat that caught the canary. "So what's got you so happy Lum?"

Lum just smiled for a few seconds, enjoying the obvious torment that she was putting her beloved through. "Oh nothing special darling, just to be in your company makes me so happy, it's positively....electrifying." The smirk on the Oni's face was very close to being malevolent but only just so.

"Oh yea...electrifying..." Ataru was cowering, cringing at the inevitable and terrifying future that he knew was to befall him. Well at least he goes through this so often...and it hasn't killed him yet, yet being the operative word.

"And I've got great news; The Logan's have invited us back to meet some of their family this weekend." Lum said as she passed slowly in front of Ataru, letting him get a view of her great legs. "Which means that we are going to to have a very fun time with new people, and I promised that you will be on your best behavior, especially since you will be in the company of the royal family of the Jurain Empire."

"Wait...another bunch of aliens are coming to this shin-dig?" Ataru asked, blinking several seconds at this new information. "Are these...Jurains...known for being good looking?" The pervert was now going into dreamland again as partially listened to his significant other's answer.

"Well to be honest the Jurains have been known to be compared by many across the galaxy to be as fair as the Oni in aparence." Lum stopped her teasing for a moment as she seriously thought of the answers to the questions Ataru was asking. "As far as personality, their more...regal is the most polite way of saying it...they're way into the pomp and decore of royalty. Flowing gowns, sense of self that borders on prude and haughty...also they commonly practice polygamous marriages with many wives and one husband..."

It was the last part of that previous sentence which caused Ataru to slip completely into his usual perverted daydreams. In this particular one we see him surrounded on all sides by women of exquisite beauty, grace, and mannerism rubbing up against him and begging to please him in ways beyond imagination...yep this is par for the course with our teenage pervert.

Back in reality, we see that Ataru's pupils are heavily dilated, a grin a mile wide is plastered on his face, and their is a river of drool cascading down the side of his mouth. This lasts for about...ten, maybe fifteen seconds when our favorite emerald haired alien babe in tigerskin bikini takes notice and...

"DARLING YOU IDIOT!!" A massive jolt of electricity lights up the immediate area with a dazzling display of enough power to run several city blocks for a period of approximately four weeks.

And thus the pervert was now a chard mass of blackened skin smoldering on the ground.

"I can't believe you. Even when I try to honestly answer your questions you go into on of your perverted fantasies." Lum was fuming now, seething with rage. "Why is it that you dream of pathetic floozies when you have a real girl willing to do just about anything to please you right here?"

"Lum, Ataru...do you have a moment that I can speak with you?" a lovely young woman's voice was heard saying as a figure approached the pair at a moderate pace.

"Oh Sakura how wonderful it is to see you. So what can we do for such a beautiful lady as yourself on this fine day?" It is remarkable just how fast Ataru had healed as he had almost miraculously been restored to health and seemingly insantly appeared right in front of the school nurse's face; an unnerving smile gracing his face.

"First thing you can do Moroboshi is...GET OUT OF MY FACE!" Sakura yelled right into Ataru's ear, causing the receiver to fall hard flat on his butt.

"I'm beginning to think that Darling's learning curve is a straight line." Lum sighed to no one in particular.

"Regardless of the inability of your significant other to learn how to act around women, I'm actually here to talk to you about an incident at Ryuunosuke's restaurant involving a recent acquaintance of yours." Sakura said in her typical no-nonsense manner.

"Oh you mean when Ranokami had to defend himself against Megane's bunch?" Ataru sarcastically remarked, still sitting on the ground, but now picking his ear.

"So he was just defending himself. Lum I need to speak to this...Ranokami as soon as possible so that I can fill out my report to the school's insurance companies." Sakura said, trying hard not to notice the incredible lack of manner's displayed by the resident perv. "If he did just defend himself then he's not in any trouble either legally or with the student body..."

"Yea, but knowing Mendo's vindictive nature and his family's vast wealth he may try to do something against Ran Okami and his family." Ataru said gazing up at the sky.

"Which is why I need to talk to Ranokami as soon as possible so that Mendou can't try anything against him, or even worse get the school whipped into an anti-mutant frenzy."

"Uh Sakura, why is it that Mendou reacted the way he did when Ran Okami said that he was a 'mutant'?" Lum asked was placing her finger and the side of her head as if in deep thought.

"To answer your question I'll have to ask you a question; do you know what a mutant actually is?"

"Well I now about evolution, and what drives it...and mutants are averants which develop new and radically different adaptations from most of a species...but I don't understand what why humans fear what is nothing more that nature taking it's course?"

"Lum, humans throughout history have been known for being very afraid of what they do not understand. Mutants are rare, misunderstood, and some possess very fightening powers that can, and in some cases have been used to harm people."

"But I can do things humans can't and I haven't seen anyone try to harm me. In fact everywhere I go people seem to love meeting me."

"Lum if you haven't noticed most of those people were young men, and you are an exceptionally good looking young girl who wears garments that are considered by Earth standards to be very revealing." Sakura said in a very matter-of-fact manner. "But a lot of mutants are looked at as freaks of nature and where you had your whole life to get used to your abilities, most mutants only learn of their powers when they manafest themselves in their teenage years in families that may not be accepting of their...'gifts'."

"But that's not right. Well at least you won't have a problem when you meet the Logan's." Lum smiled, almost airheadedly, as she decided to just take Sakura with them to meet the Logans.

"The Logan's?" Sakura asked as she was caught completely off guard by the name.

"Yep, Darling and I have been invited back to their home tonight and you can just follow along with us." Lum said as she levitated into the air.

"But..the Logan's? That doesn't sound as if they are from around here." Sakura thought to herself for a second.

"Just meet us outside the gate of that old Samurai Mansion thats on the other side of town from Mendou's at about five and we'll all go see them together; okay? See you then Sakura." Lum said as she waved goodbye to the nurse/priestess who now was walking back to the school.

"Five O'clock outside the mansion that's been unoccupied for a while. I'll have to look into this more closely." Sakura thought to herself as she headed back towards the school and decided to make a quick trip to the hall of records to see just who it was that she was going to be dealing with soon.

Leaving the locals for a while, we journey back to the home of the Logan family where we see that their guests have just arrived.

"Wow Tenchi your aunt really has a big house." Kiyone said as she stepped out of the car and took a look around while streaking her legs after the long trip. For a young lady stuck sharing a two room apartment with a ditz partner, this was liken to a pauper being welcomed into the castle.

"Well she doesn't live here all too often." Tenchi sheepishly shrugged. "What with my Uncle's responsibilities in New York and everything."

"Well I say enough waiting around already, let's go meet this cousin of yours Tenchi. I want to see just how tough he really is." Ryoko smirked as she slammed her fist into the palm of her hand to emphasize her point.

"Hold on there Ryoko, the last thing we need to do is go into my sister-in-laws home and cause a fight. If you want to spar with my nephew I'm sure that he would be more than willing to do so later." Mrs. Masaki said as she continued to do her best to try to contain the more...physical of the two main competitors for Tenchi's affection.

"Well if you're all done waiting about, lets go in and introduce ourselves." Washu smugly said as she stuffed her hands in her pockets and started towards the front door.

"Yes 'mother'." Ryoko groaned as he huffed and dropped her head following the shorter woman's lead.

Ringing the doorbell, the Logan's in-laws waited patiently for their hosts to arrive. Patient being a relative term as it is well known that several of those standing in front of the Logan household are not know for being able to stand still for prolonged periods of time without doing something completely insane and leading to destruction of a level only seen when the Hulk got loose.

"Are they even home?" Ryoko groaned as she started to pick at her nails.

"I'm sure that they're on their way, after all this house is huge and it likely takes time to get to the front door." Tenchi's mother said as she unconsciously began tapping her foot.

After a while the front door did begin to open and out stepped a teenage female with medium tone brown hair that reached down to her mid back, big brown eyes, and one of the cutest faces that any of those standing outside had seen outside of Sasami. Dressed in very dirty battle garments, it didn't seem as if this young lady had been expecting company. However...

"Tenchi it's so good to see you; how have you been?" she said as she nearly tackled the unsuspecting male with her hug.

"Wow Ukyo you're looking great, I mean it's great to see you." Tenchi smiled while scratching the back of his head sheepishly.

"EXCUSSE ME!" two very irate females nearly screamed at the ones how hugging each other.

"Alright who are you and what are you doing with *my* Tenchi?" Ryoko said as she forced her way in between the two.

"Lord Tenchi who is this woman and how is it that you are so informal with her?" Ayeka harshly asked, borderlining on green with envy.

"Let me take a while guess, you're the fireball named Ryoko and you would be the Princess Ayeka." the brunette said while pointing at the two simmering young ladies.

"Fireball?" Ryoko blinked several times at the description.

"Ryoko, Ayeka this is my cousin Ukyo." Tenchi smiled.

"Your cousin?" Ayeka blanched.

"Oh...okay, names Ryoko. So you have no interest in..." Ryoko said pointing to her intended.

"What Tenchi? Oh please. Your cute and all but really not my type cousin." Ukyo smiled as she nearly laughed herself to the floor.

"Well, that's okay. To be honest I've got enough women taking an interest in me as is." Tenchi whispered into his cousin's ear.

"So I've heard. Say lets go inside and you all can meet the rest of the family."

"Excuse me Ukyo but why didn't my sister greet us, she's usually much more attendant." Mrs. Masaki asked as she walked into the large estate.

"I'm not sure Auntie, but she left a note for us saying that she and Logan-san had to take care of something together."

"Ah I see." Achika smiled 'knowing my sister-in-law...oh heck with it she needs some time alone with Logan occasionally.' "So where's my nephew now?"

"Ranchan? He's still outside in the backyard training."

"Knowing how much he loves to fight, that would have been my first guess." the aged Katsuhito said while smiling.

"Ranchan?" Kiyone asked as the group made it's way to the backyard/garden section of the grounds and was directed towards the teenager in question.

What they were greeted to was a young man doing a series of punches and kicks at blinding speed, and ever so often it would seem as if something long and blade-like seemed to extend out from the back of his fists, yet no one could see from where he had pulled it out from or where they seemed to go.

"He seems...flexible." Ayeka remarked, although she was picturing Tenchi being that...physically talented.

"I wonder just how far someone of his skill can be pushed." Washu thought to herself as she crewly smiled to herself. 'Hello Guinna pig number two.'

"Does he even know that we are here?" Ryoko sarcastically asked as she took in the scenario around herself.

The teenage male mutant had his eyes closed as he bent his legs and lept sideways into a handspring, then again into an airborne tuck and roll before landing in front of Ryoko with his fists by his side, then...

SHICKT!

Six bone blades were thrust out just a few fractions of a inch from her stomach.

"That answer your question?" Ran Okami smirked as he stood up and retracted his claws back into his forearm.

"Why you..." Ryoko's temper was rising like the mercury in a thermometer in the middle of the Amazon. The scarlet energy she uses so often to cause destruction back at the Masaki Shrine began to grow in the palm of her hand.

While Ryoko's response to this was pure ire, everyone else found this particular way of replying to be incredibly humorous. In fact Ayeka and Ukyo were rolling over laughing their butts off.

"Ryoko you did ask him if he was aware of us, don't be too upset because he's answer was as clever, if not a little showy." Katsuhito said as he chuckled slightly at the very amusing action of his student. The ex-space pirate just gritted her teeth in rage.

"Fine, but I'll be watching you jerk." Ryoko said as she relaxed her hand and the energy in it dissipated.

"Well that was fun, hey Tenchi how's it going cuz?" Ran Okami said as he took off the top of his training garb and toweled himself off.

"Oh the usual; training day and night to be some sort of heir to an alien thrown, being the item of affection of power alien women, while simultaneously trying to deal with going to high school with a bunch of essentially normal people. for numerous women with the ability to cause massive amounts of damage to myself and surrounding." the Jurain Emperor to be said flippantly. "You?"

"Oh much the same, but I'm training every second of my life by ninja masters, special forces instructors, ancient Chinese amazon warriors older than Pops, surrounded by a village full of boy crazy girls of legionary beauty that all seemed to want to marry me, you get the idea."

"Excuse me Ukyo, but is your brother joking about the last part?" Ayeka asked her host.

"Nope, he's being completely honest. But it was cool being around women warriors for a while after being surrounded by so many manly guys at the X-Mansion and then G., besides our cousin Xan Pu's cool." Ukyo smiled as she headed back inside with everyone.

"Oh Master Katsuhito, brother, Achika, it is so nice to see you again. And this must be my dear nephew Tenchi." Nodoka cooed as she looked over the very embarrassed teenager.

"Hello Auntie Nodoka, and this is Ryoko, Princesses Ayeka and Sasami of Jurai, Officers Mihoshi and Kiyone of the galactic police, and Little Washu."

"Hello."

"It is very nice to meet you Mrs. Logan."

"Hi, you have a very wonderful house here Mrs. Logan."

"Wow I didn't know that people on earth had places this big for just a four member family."

"Mihoshi you're being rude. It is a pleasure to be here and I hope you don't mind having to put up with the extra people here."

"I'm actually impressed by your son's physical combat abilities and was wondering if I could run a few experiments on him and..." Washu was cut off harshly as she found herself grabbed around the neck and held off the ground by a very powerful hand.

"If you even think about treating my son, daughter, or anyone else in my family as a lab rat you little runt, then you are going to have to get through me." the man's voice was low, cold, and mensing as he held Washu are arm's length with three metal blades hovered just in front of her face. "Is that clear to you bub?"

"Logan-kun I think that you have made your point, so please let Little Washu go dear." Nodoka said as she placed her gentle hand on her husband's shoulder.

"Fine." Logan growled as he unceremoniously dropped Washu on her ass. "But if you even think about trying anything on anyone in my family then we are going to have a very long talk." Logan made the point very clear to Washu, now rubbing her hurting butt.

"Well...uh...girls this is my Uncle Logan. Uncle Logan I take it you heard who everyone is." Tenchi now had a huge sweatdrop on the back of his head as he pointed his hand towards he uncle.

"How's it goin'?" Logan smirked as he just stood there watching people gawking.

"Uh Tenchi you never said that your uncle wasn't Japanese." Ayeka blinked several times. "Excuse me, but it is very nice to meet you Logan-san." the Princess said as she bowed to the head of the Logan clan.

"And it is a pleasure to meet you." Logan said as he returned the bow. "And for an alien you shouldn't be talk'n about where I may or may not be." Logan chided Ayeka as he pulled out a cigar and used one of his claws to slice the tip off.

"Logan-kun." Nodoka softly said as she tapped her husband on shoulder.

Logan was stopped for a second as Nodoka never had a problem with his habit before, in fact she actually enjoyed having a slight scent of a good Havana in the air from time to time. It was then that Logan saw that his beloved Nodoka was pointing at the little blue haired girl dressed in what looked like formal garbs and holding some....rabbit.....kitten....thing. The Canadian groaned as he stuffed the wrapped layers of tobacco back into his pocket.

"Hi the name's Sasami, and this is Ryo-Ohki." the little one smiled as she held the little animal up towards Logan's face.

"Cute kid, real cute." Logan said as he rubbed the little thing's head, then patted Sasami's.

"Thank you Logan-san. It's so nice to meet finally meet you. Can you really heal from any damage, be able to hear everything around you, and defeated an evil monster to save your son and free Tenchi's aunt." Sasami asked while hugging Ryo-Ohki snuggly in her arms.

Logan gave his brother-in-law an incredulous look as if saying "What the hell have you been telling this girl about me?"

"If you are wondering Logan I gave them sort of the abridged version of you and Nodoka's first husband." the aged master of the Masaki Shrine said with a small smile gracing his lips.

"In the same way as that story of how the hero 'Yosho' battled the demon 'Ryoko' and sealed the ancient evil at the bottom of the cave near our temple." Tenchi said sarcastically.

"What was that?" Katsuhito asked his student, a air of harsh disciplinary nature obvious.

"I think it's called a simile father." the Matron of the Masaki family said as she smiled at her own wit.

"Well did you?" Sasami asked politely.

"Yea, but I an't tell yea the whole story kid. You an't old enough." Logan said as he turned his head back towards the cute little girl, who to be honest was reminding the grizzled warrior of Ukyo when she was still a pre-teen.

"Wow, that's so romantic." The bungling blond said going into a very stereotypical doe-eyed, bright colored, incredibly girlly pose.

"Uchan, just how to you girls do that?" Ran Okami asked as he scratched the back of his head.

"Can't tell you Ranchan because I'm not sure either...we just do it." Ukyo said as she shrugged her shoulders.

"Well why don't the two of you go get cleaned up while we get lunch ready." Nodoka suggested to her children, still dirty from sparing in the backyard.

"Sure mom, well nice to meet all of you." Ran Okami said heading to the bath.

"Excuse me Logan-san but how old is your son?" Kiyone asked, having a hard time not looking at the young man's backside.

"Sixteen why, you got a thing for younger men?" Logan asked jokingly, Nodoka already getting ready to burst out with the fans to do her "Grandbabies" dance.

"Me? Nah I like older guys. But he's going to have a very though time not attracting women like crazy once he starts dating."

"Lady he already does." Logan replied as he went outdoors and enjoyed his cigar.

Nodoka sighed as she reset the fans back to where she hid them under her robes.

"Don't worry Nodoka, knowing your son he'll have more women than he can handle soon enough." the red head's sister-in-law said as she looked at how Tenchi was in the eye of a estregin hurricane.

"And if you're really lucky, they won't be nearly as aggressive as these two." the princess of Jurai shared a good chuckle with the Lady of the Logan house as they saw Ryoko an Ayeka once more begin the all too often conflict for Tenchi's affection.

"Ryoko why don't you just go back to that hole in the ground you were staying at for the last few centuries?" Ayeka growled as she latched herself onto Tenchi's left arm.

"Because Tenchi likes me a lot more than he does you *princess*." The ex-space pirate nearly roared as she held tight to Tenchi's right side, so hard in fact that it was beginning to hurt the young man. "I was here first, and if you didn't keep interrupting the two of us then Tenchi and I would likely be happily engaged by now."

"YOU LIAR! I bet that even thought you've been around Lord Tenchi longer than I have, that you haven't even gotten to know Tenchi nearly as well as I do." Ayeka said as she begin to call upon those numerous wooden servants of hers.

"RYOKO! Ayeka! You may bet away with fighting outside of the shrine, but I will not have you trashing Nodoka's home with you're....infantile squarles. Is that clear?" Achika Masaki said pulling out a lightsaber-like weapon from her side.

"Absolutely Mrs. Masaki."

"Yes Lady Masaki." The two ladies sheepishly backed off from their intended with a look like their tails were tucked underneath their legs. Well Ryoko's tail was still draped across her waist like a belt but you know what I mean.

It was about half an hour later that we see the Logans and their relatives sitting down for lunch, which Sasami insisted that she help make and was too cute to refuse.

"Now that we are all here." Nodoka smiled 'and more interested in food than fighting at the moment.' "I have some good news about some friends my children made yesterday."

"Are you expecting more company Nodoka?" her sister-in-law asked, concerned whether or not enough food was prepared at the moment for more people, then realized that with Sasami, Ukyo, and Nodoka in the kitchen that they could feed a small city with little effort.

"Yes, but that won't be until this evening around dinner time." Nodoka answered. "And it will be with another alien princess believe it or not."

"Really?" Ayeka blinked several times at that revelation. "I was unaware that anyone else from Juri was on this world." the older of the princess sisters said, wondering if perhaps a cousin of hers had come to check up on how her courting of Lord Tenchi was going.

"I never said that she was from Juri Princess Ayeka." Nodoka smiled as she passed one of the dishes. "Actually she said that she was a member of the Oni and her name is..."

"Princess Lum? Princess Invader Lum?" Kiyone nearly faited as she realized who her host's other guest would be.

Several blinks later, we see that the entire table was now focused on the very exasperated space cop.

"I'm sorry but, how is it that you could possibly have gotten in contact with the daughter of one of the most infamous galactic conquerer in the universe?" Kiyone asked, her mind cringing at the thought of all the damage that would occur from the interaction of Space Pirates, Princess Ayeka, and now the notorious Princess Lum and her (cringe) compatriots.

"Well it all started when we all got back for Spring Break." Ran Okami said as he started to pick at his steamed beef. "Uchan and I were getting food and I was chosen to go get lunch. Well I went to this local restaurant and just as I was about to get my order, this obnoxious jerk rushes in with this flying girl with green hair and a bunch of nut jobs who had to have the combined intelligence of a wet rag."

"Let me guess this obnoxious jerk was average height, brown hair, and a real pervert." Kiyone asked as she was really enjoying the dish that Ukyo had made. An exaggerated nod was her answer. "Ataru Moroboshi. Let me guess his file doesn't even begin to describe him."

"One could not accurately describe his...lechery...with mere words officer Kiyone. However none of you girls need worry about being hassled by him while he's here." Nodoka smiled as she took a moment from indulging herself with Sasami's wonderful dish and thinking how Tenchi would be a very happy man when the teal haired was old enough to marry. "My beloved Logan-kun made it perfectly clear that any sort of harassment at my house will not be tolerated. But if you need to use one of the room's here for private physical time together, I don't have any objections."

Nodoka's smile was one of complete innocence, which was completely counter to the nature of her statement. The unsettlingly statement had caused several of those at the table to do a facefault, nearly knocking the food off the table in the process. However, there was at least one attending the meal that was smiling at Nodoka's statement.

"You know Nodoka, I like the way you think." Ryoko said as she used the moment that Ayeka was distracted to wrap her tail around Tenchi's midsection, and causing cold shivers to run up and down the prince's spine.

Seeing this, Tenchi's mother could only do one thing;

"Nodoka, as much as I think that you have a very...unique view on matrimony, can I please borrow your fans. I have the most interesting desire to do a 'my manly son dance' right now."

"Oh by all means." Nodoka smiled.

"No-chan." Logan groaned as he covered his face with his hand.

"Okay now I have this one in the right hand and this one in the left, now were do I put my feet?" Achika asked as Nodoka stood up and started to show her how to do the dance.

Let us journey several miles away for a moment. Far away into the vast expanse of the Himalayan mountains to a massive fortification in he image of a great serpent's head. We are taken deep...deep...into the boles of the stone fortress past long dark passages teaming with guards armed to the teeth with laser rifles and machine guns. In the very center of this enormous engineering achievement we see a large inner sanctum adorn with tapestries displaying the image of a mighty snake.

It is here that we find, sitting around a large circular table, one of the most cunning and ruthless men alive watching what had to be one of the largest video screens ever to be built. Cobra Commander, along with Destro, Baroness, Major Bludd, and Zartan, was transfixed on the image of the Logan's lunch, and turned on just in time to see the two matrons of the family doing something very...different.

"What the heck?" the head of Cobra said as he saw two house wives dancing with fans, one of them repeating something joyfully over and over again. "I thought that the Japanese were incredibly dignified and reserved. More so that you Destro."

"Perhaps we should ask someone who is fluent in Japanese to explain what is going on Commander?" Destro said as he began stroking the chin of his metal faceplate.

"Does anyone happen to know where Storm Shadow is?" Baroness asked while whipping her glasses and making sure that her hair fell in just the right way to hint at the seductive nature which so often caught men into doing something very stupid, and usually fatal.

"Unfortunately we have him doing work in Bolivia doing an assassination job." Cobra Commander commented as he picked up some loose papers and started going down the list of agents with intimate knowledge of Japanese culture.

"Perhaps Firefly would be able to decipher what's going on." Major Bluud said, very confused by the antics of the two housewives.

The Faceless one was deep in thought as he sliced again and again at his practice dummy with his knife. Several months had passed since last we had encountered the mercenary, and he had spent all that time obsessed with one thing: getting back at the twerp who smashed him in the back of the head, and the redhead swordswoman who had stood against him in pitched battle. A professional like himself being beaten by a freaking kid and a housewife? Never again.

"Firefly you are wanted in the main office NOW!" Cobra Commander screamed out of the microphone.

"Save your breath 'Commander' I'll be there in a moment." Firefly responded with as much sarcasm as humanly possible. Taking a moment to look down at his blade for a second before flipping it in his hand and then throwing it right between the eyes of the dummy.

As the terrorist slammed the door behind him, we finally get to see that the dummy that he had been attacking was made in the form of a middle aged red-head woman.

It was early evening that we once more see the Logan homestead. The sun was only beginning to set as the school nurse was making her way up the long driveway. Sakura had heard that this particular mansion had been the home of a family of rather...eccentric people years back, and there were suspension circumstances around the death of two of the former patrons, especially one Genma Saotome who had apparently been killed by a wild animal several years back and his son was apparently never discovered.

This was very interesting as the matron of the house quickly remarried three months after the death of her first husband and she had another son that was about the same age and description as the one she had "lost". Shaking her head a few times to clear her thoughts, she just decided to ask about these things when she actually met the Logans.

Princess Lum took a moment away from attaching herself to her beloved Darling just long enough to ring the door bell and be greeted by a very cute brunette who looked like she would easily fit into the normal high school crowd.

"Hey Lum, Ataru come in we've been expecting you." Ukyo smiled as she let her two new *friends* in. It was only after Lum and Ataru passed into the asked the woman, curious as to the nature of their unexpected guest's visit. "I'm sorry but who exactly are you?"

"Yes, sorry to interrupt anything but I'm the nurse at Tomobiki High School and I was looking for a certain Logan Ran Okami for an incident that happened at a local restaurant involving some of my students. I was told that our mutual acquaintances Ms. Invader and Mr Morobishi that he lived at this residence."

"Okay. Hey Ranchan you have someone here to see you." Ukyo said as she let Sakura inside the Mansion. "Come on you two how about I introduce you to our other guests."

"Sure thing cutie, afterall any friend of your's..." Ataru drooled as he thought of meeting more alien babes, especially ones who were known for not having a problem sharing their men.

"Finnish that sentence at your own peril buddy." Ukyo said as she held out her well known spatula out at arm's reach.

"Indeed Darling." Lum said squeezing Ataru's arm so hard that she nearly cut off his circulation.

As the young lady of the house led her two guests towards the back of the mansion and out of the front parlor. Sakura was sure that she was alone after that, yet as soon as Ukyo gave a friendly call for her brother she was sure that she wasn't alone. Even with her finite senses towards the paranormal and such, the priestess couldn't detect who was actually observing her. This level of concentration was broken when she heard:

"Well hello young lady, and why is it that you wish to speak to my son about?" Nodoka asked, seeming to have appeared out of nowhere and about to pull out a pair of fans and do her "manly son" dance with such a lovely female interested in him.

"Mrs. Logan it is an honor to meet you." Sakura bowed to the matron of the house. "And I wish to speak to your son because he was recently involved in a fight with some of the students from the school I work at."

"A fight? I assure you ma'am that my son did not start any fight with anyone." Nodoka's voice was firm, but not essentially harsh, as she defended her son.

"I'm not saying that he started it Mrs. Logan. From what I was told he was attacked by a group of several boys for essentially no reason and defended himself resulting in his attackers being left bloody and broken." Sakura sighed as she tried very hard to pick her words very carefully. "The reason that I need to talk to your son is that I can get his side of the incident. so that the boys he had to fight can't use the law against him."

"Hum, gets pulled into fights that he didn't start, but always seems to be the one who ends them with the other guy looking like he went through a meat grinder. Guess he's more a chip off the old block than I thought." Logan smiled as he walked up to Sakura.

The nurse/priestess looked at the Patriarch of the Logan clan with surprise. He wasn't the tallest man she had seen, but he was perhaps the most built. Broad shoulders, big fists, and an attitude that was purely feral.

"Yes well. Forgive me but if I could please have a moment of your son's time so that I can finish my report. After that I will make my leave and let you enjoy the rest of your night."

"Only if you intend to show that my son was not at fault and will not be punished for defending himself."

"That's my word." Sakura said.

"Well I'm here, so lets get it over with." Wild Wolf said as he seemed to appear from thin air.

"WHA? How did you?...Never mind it's your business at this point. So what exactly happened that caused you to get involved in a fight with Medu and those four others who seem to be enthralled to Lum."

"It started when I went to Ryuunosuke's restaurant to get lunch. I made a comment about how she could get more customers by dolling herself up a little. About half-way through our conversation Ataru burst through the door followed by a group of irate boys and a flying girl who I later learned was princess Lum." Ran Okami said as he propped himself up against a wall. "Anyway Ataru interrupted my conversation and while I was trying to explain how I was able to figure out how Ryuunosuke was actually a girl, and before I knew it I was caught in the middle of a fist fight with a bunch of rank armatures."

"I understand how that explains the reason that you had to fight Megane and his bunch...but why is it that Mendou fought you?" Sakura asked. For while Megane and the idiots that he hung out with were known to go off on wild tantrum whenever Ataru or someone else disrespected Lum, Mendou was more in control usually.

"Mendou that snob with the sword right?" Ran Okami asked. Sakura answered with a nod. "Well he...didn't like me for who I am and decided to pull that sword on me."

"Is that because you are...well....a mutant?" Sakura asked. Immediately thinking that she just pocked a stick into a hornets' nest.

Logan was nearly growling as he stared Sakura right in the face.

"You got a problem with mutant?"

"No, No...no problem Mr. Logan. I was only asking if that was the reason that Mendou attacked your son. Well thank you very much for your time and I hope that I haven't taken too much of your time." Sakura said bowing to her host. "You shouldn't have any more trouble from Lum's Stormtroopers, but I must warn you that Mendou has access to vast amounts of money and is very vindictive."

"Thank you for the warning Ms. Sakura, and please warn the young man that if he attempts any sort of reprisal against my son that he will be bitting off more than he can chew." Nodoka said while bowing a farewell to the school nurse. "Now Logan-kun shall we go see the interactions of the royal houses of two very different alien races?" Nodoka smiled as she looked at her smirking husband.

"Yea, but if they start shooting lasers at one another I'm going out for a beer." Logan said as he walked with his wife to where his guests had accumulated.

To be continued.

Author's notes: Alright another chapter over and done with. I know that it's the wrong time of year for a spring break but I'm going with what inspiration I get when. Now you may wonder why I repeated the description of what happened in the first chapter twice, well its just to show what would happen between the two different environments with the same story. Sort of checking to see if I could get the characters right. Well I hope you liked this and don't forget to leave a review.
