Ryoko's doppelganger: epilogue

Disclaimer: I don't own Tenchi Muyo or any of that good stuff, though Tyoko and
Tyo-ohii are mine... please don't sue me... please? Pretty please?
Tyoko sat on the porch at the Masaki home, the wind blew slightly, wisps of her hair caught on the breeze,
tickling her face. She was deep in thought, only a couple days ago everything happened, all at once it
seemed. She had met her family, her mother and father. She had several 'aunts', although one of them was
moving out on her account... Ayeka had hated the idea that Tenchi had a child with Ryoko, even if it was
genetically created by Washu and neither parents had any say in it... Ayeka seemed to hate Tyoko, though
Tyoko tried to be nice to her, after all, Washu had told her that if she was nice to everybody, then she
would make friends quickly. Befriending Ayeka proved to be the hardest task she had ever attempted in her
short life, Ayeka was too stubborn and proud to acknowledge Tyoko as a real human being. Tyoko tried to
push these thoughts aside, as they saddened her. Her parents stepped outside, carrying Ayeka's luggage, her
mother seemed happy as a clam to see her leave, but something shone in her eyes. Not triumph, but sorrow,
Tyoko imagined that it was because she would no longer have a rival. Rivals can be important to ones self
esteem, at least, that's what Washu had told her at one time. Her father on the other hand... there was a
genuine look of sadness in his face, he didn't really want Ayeka to leave, there were the beginnings of tears
sparkling in his eyes, he blinked them away, trying to look dignified. Ayeka looked sadly Tenchi, then at
Ryoko, apparently she couldn't see through Ryoko's fake triumph. Ryoko walked over to Tyoko, she could
see the hurt in her eyes and patted her on the back, to comfort her. Ayeka looked at the two, they looked so
much alike that it was scary! She snorted slightly, and with a huff she gathered her bags and proceeded to
her ship alone.
Ayeka didn't look back until she was inside her ship. When she reached her seat, she broke into tears, what
was she doing? The man she loved was back on earth without her! And with that demon woman! And her
blasted demon child! How could she leave him for them? What had she been thinking?! Ayeka turned the
spaceship around to go back to earth... and Tenchi... By the time she reached Jupiter, it was apparent that
she was being followed, a large blue ship was trying unsuccessfully to hide among Jupiter's rings, Ayeka
sighed and rolled her eyes. Asaka and Kamadake could see that there was something wrong... Ayeka
turned on the vid-connection and hailed the other ship. The pilot of the other ship, as she expected, was a
Teenager, who facefaulted the second he saw her face.
"Is there something I can do for you?" she asked the pilot.
"Uh... um, ah, well, y'see...."
"I thought so." She turned away and turned off the link, then proceeded to accelerate...
Back on earth...
"I'm going to miss Ayeka..." sighed Mihoshi.
"Meow!" agreed Ryo-Ohki.
Suddenly a transmission from Asaka came through the Radio.
"Master Tenchi! Master Tenchi! Ayeka has been kidnapped! Along with Kamadake, and myself. Miss
Ayeka requests that you come and rescue her..."
Well, that's the end of my Ryoko's doppelganger series, and the beginning of my 'Quest for Ayeka' series.
