Chapter Four
Inside the large house, we see a large table that is only 2 feet off the ground.
People sat around it, on the floor sitting on their hind legs. It is apparent, that they don't
use chairs. On the long side of the table, Tenchi sat in the middle as Ayeka sat on the
other side of him. Ayeka was trying to get Tenchi, to eat certain foods. She kept saying
he needed to eat more proteins. Tenchi didn't want to eat anything he didn't want to. He
wanted to eat at his own pace. He sighed as he realized, he had missed that feeling of that
someone always hanging on his shoulder. Begging him to do this and that never giving
his privacy. On the other side of the long Japanese style table, was Mihoshi & Kiyone.
They were eating Sasami's special ramen that she makes for almost every meal. Next to
Mihoshi & Kiyone was a empty seat, that was usually filled by the red headed scientist
named Washu. But it wasn't unusually to them, if she missed a few meals every now and
then. She sometimes got so interlocked in her work, she forgot what time it was. Then at
the end of the table was Sasami, the master chef in the house. She was known for her
excellent cooking skills, it baffles a many people. On how a 8 year old (physically to
earth's standards) can cook so well. They complemented her many times, then after the
meal they got up and went to do their chores. Kiyone helped Sasami clean up the
leftovers from lunch. Ayeka left the kitchen and skewered the house for dirty clothes, she
did not dare to enter Ryoko's room. Mihoshi went to the bathroom to clean it up. Tenchi
left the house, and made his way to the shrine, his grandfather was at. We can see Ayeka
carrying a large basket filled with cloths, she drops them next to the clothesline. She
grabs a 10 pound bucket filled with soapy water, a small cloth leans against a wooden
board with a metal rack embedded into it. She kneels down, with the basket lowering
with her. She grabs some clothes out of the basket near her. Then she dips the cloth into
the bucket, scrubbing the clothes against the rack.. She pulls out the clothes that were in
the basket and rings it out. She stands up and hangs the clothes onto the metal wire
dangling above her. Then she kneels down back against the bucket, and repeats the
washing process again. Repeating it over and over, until all the clothes are hung across
the wire. She stands over the bucket, letting out a sigh filled with tiredness. She picks up
the bucket and carries it over to a small grassy area 5 feet away from her. She pours the
water into the grass slowly so it doesn't back splash, and hit her. Then after it finished,
she went to the storage shed and placed the bucket back into it. Then she returned to the
clothesline, she watches the cloths sway barely as a gentle breeze blew in her direction.
She spoke to herself, " Good thing, I just finished that, maybe the wind will help dry
those." She walks over to the side entrance of the house, she slides it open and walks
through leaving her shoes off at the door. She slips on her house slippers, and enters the
living room. The TV was turned off as their was no one in their. She thought this was
odd, because some one was always watching tv. As she crypt over to the couch. She sat
on it, making herself comfortable. She picked up the remote, that was hidden deep
within the couch. She pushed a button on it and the TV came to life. Sasami appeared
behind Ayeka, as she had walked down the flight of stairs that were now behind her.
Ayeka lets out a yawn, as she covers her mouth. Sasami took a step forward and she
extended her hands over the couch back quickly covering her sister's eyes. Sasami leaned
her head close to Ayeka's ear, she said in fake voice "Osaka: Guess who!!" Ayeka almost
let out a shriek, being taken by surprise. She sat still, as she tried to guess who it was.
She responded to her sister, " Osaka: You will never figure it out." Ayeka answered her, "
Is it Osaka?" Sasami answer, " Osaka: No. Let me help you abit" Sasami cleared her
throat as she made her voice a bit higher pitch, " Rho: Does this help?" Ayeka tries again,
" Is it Rho?" Sasami say again, " Rho: No... Do you want a hint?" Ayeka nodded. Sasami
told her sister the hint, "Rho: Ok.." she clears her throat, and talks to her using her
original voice, " Do you know now? " Ayeka nodded her head, then answer " Its
Sasami!" She removed her hands from her eye's covered eyes. Ayeka turned around,
facing her sister. Ayeka asked her sister a question, " Why did you do that, Sister? "
Sasami responded, " Because I was bored. " Ayeka gave her a bad look as she took her, "
That's no excuse to do that! " Sasami sighed, " I'm sorry sister." The clock chimed 5-o-
clock as both of em looked at the clock. Ayeka spoke with surprise in her voice, " Wow
where did the time go? " Her sister responded, " I don't know, but I have to have dinner
ready in 2 hours. So I guess I'm going to catch a quick bath, then start dinner. " Ayeka
nodded to her younger sister, " Alright. " She let out a little yawn as she spoke, " I guess
I am going to take a nap. " After that comment Sasami left the room and headed for the
onsen. Ayeka slowly got up off the couch, she turned off the television and left the living
room. She grasped the railing on the stairs and placed a foot the step, she moved her hand
upward on the railing as she took another step, repeating the process till she was at the
top. She let go of the railing at look to her left, then to her right. She walked forward, to
the next set of stairs as she realized how barren the hallway was. She repeated the stair
climbing process, and when she got to the top she went down the hall and enter her room.
She motioned toward her bed, as she knelt down next to her bed. She thought of how the
day went. She had already climbed onto her bed and laid under the cover, she wondered
if was ok. She let out a laugh, thinking her caring about Ryoko. " Ha ", was what came
out of her mouth But she really did care about Ryoko, Ayeka may have been a real stuck-
up bitch to her. But it was an act, so no one would expect her 1st princess of Jurai and a
pirate with one of the universe's most wanted bounties on her head be friends. Even
Ryoko didn't noticed Ayeka was trying to be her friend. Maybe it was because it was in
Ayeka's nature to be rude to her. Who knows, not even Washu could figure this out.
