Just a quiet evening... Day 3/04...
By Daferge...

Ryoko stood there, staring into Nagi's eyes... She was relying on Centuries of trying to stay alive for any hint that might let her know what Nagi's next move might be...
At the same time she was carefully trying to recall ANYTHING she might have done that had set Nagi off...
" Giggle!!! "...
But the first sign of 'trouble' didn't come from Nagi, it came came from behind her...
It was a sound she hadn't heard in a while... Thank the Goddess!!!
Out of the corner of her eye she saw movement... With an ever so slight turn of her head, she could make out Sasami and Tenchi peeking from behind the couch at something behind her...
Not now!!!
A soft, gentle voice carried through the stillness and silence...
" Ryoko... Dear!!!... If I may?... "...
DEAR?
NOW, Ryoko KNEW the end of the universe was here... The lasr time Ayeka had used that 'tone', she'd totally "lost it" and Ryoko had barely escaped with her life... It had taked Washu 48 hours to fill the crater, rebuild the house AND even the woods around it...
This wasn't going to be her day...
" If I could have a word with our... Guest?... "
Ryoko's live ( at least the good parts with Tenchi... ) was flashing before her eye's when the words, registered...
GUEST???
Ryoko smiled and Nagi tensed, expecting an attack...
But Ryoko continued to smile and slowly crossed her arms, causing Nagi to step back...
Ryoko didn't understand why, but SHE wasn't the princesses focal point, this time... SIGH...
" By all means, Princess... Have fun... "
Her eye's ablaze, Ryoko winked at Nagi and disappeared...
" Play nice you two... "
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Nagi stared at the spot Ryoko had occupied just an instant before... WHAT??
" Humm... "
Nagi was brought back to the present by the sound of the Princesses voice...
Turning, Nagi came into eye contact with the First Princess of Juria...
A SMILING Princess, who's eyes seem to be glowing and dozens of those small logs were floating around her...
Then Nagi noticed something that made her worry...
Why are the princesses 'Guardian Logs' peeking through the kitchen doorway...
AND was that the police officers Makibi and Kuramitsu hiding behind the 'Guardians'?...
A scared Mihoshi smiled and waved...
She also noticed a very worried Sasami and Tenchi peeking from behind the couch... Watching the Princess...
Suddenly Ryoko appeared behind them, still smiling... Waving, she touch both Sasami and Tenchi before they all disappeared...
Nagi was beginning to have second thoughts...
Third and Fourth thoughts TOO...
I'm out of here...
Closing her eyes she tried to contact Ken-ohki...
Nothing? But he was just here?...
She opened her eyes to found herself surrounded by the small logs and trapped in an energy net...
And the Princess was looking her in the eye, only inches away...
Her eyes WERE glowing?...
A cold chill went up Nagi's spine...
" Must you go?... We were just getting started... "
And why was she smiling?...
The last thing Nagi heard before she passed out was...
" Giggle... "...
( to be continued?... )
