Those Worthy
Part 4
By: Maria

Akane walked in the doors of the bar as three girls walked out. She look around the room nervously.

'Well it seems like nothing has started yet. I suppose I should find a place to sit.' She looked closely at the people sitting around and notices Ukyo, Kodachi and Shampoo at a table. 'Looks like they're arguing. That doesn't surprise me, but them being here does.'

Akane walked over to the table and heard Kodachi mention Ranma's name.

"What about Ranma?" she asked and they turned to look at her surprised.

"Akane!" they said in unison.

"What are you three doing here?" Akane asked curiously.

"Well me and Shampoo got these mysterious invitations and met up here." Ukyo said.

"Yes, I got an invitation as well." Kodachi sat down.

"Seems like we have four mysterious invitations in our hands." Akane said bring hers out.

"Mysterious is hardly the right word for them." a familiar voice said.

"Huh?" Akane and the others turned around.

"Nabiki!!" they said together.
"Nabiki, what are you doing here?! Did you get an invitation as well?" Akane asked her sister.

"No." came her short answer.

"Well what are you doing here?" Ukyo repeated Akanes question.

Nabiki smiled. "I'm working of course. I have to make lots of money some way."

"Working?" Akane looked amazed. "Are you a waitress?"

"No! I made those invitations and sent them out to some people. I'm working with this auction. Helped set it up and get all the items we're auctioning. I get a great deal of money for all this. And it was really easy tasks!"

"Oh! You're a past of the auction. What's going to be auctioned." Shampoo asked.

"Can't tell you. Orders from above. I can however say...there something you four will want to get." And with that said Nabiki turned and left the bar.

"Nabiki! Hey wait!" Akane ran after her sister.


Relena sat quitely drinking her drink.

"So do you think you'll find something you want?" the girl next to her asked.

"Huh? Oh...well probably not. I come but I usually never buy anything." Relena smiled. "I'm Relena Peacecraft"

"I heard. My names Mia. It's nice to meet you."

"Oh Tenchi...don't you like me...I want to ..."Ryoko mumbled in her sleep.
"Ha, seems like she had quite a lot to drink." Mia said.

"Yes but this is really good. Second glass I've had. You should have some." Mia looked at Relena's glass and decided she'd go ahead and try some. Mia told the bartender to get her some. Ryoko started waking up just then.

"Tenchi...where are you?" She looked around confused. "Oh! Hey Relena. How's the drink?"

"Fine...you know I've got a complaint." Relena looked slightly drunk.

"I want Heero! *starts crying* Heeeerrooooo!" everyone looked up at the drunk princess.

"Relena?!" three voices said.

Relena looked up and saw Noin, Lady Une and Hilde. They were looking at Relena in total shock.

"Noin! Lady Une! Hilde!" Relena threw herself into Noins arms. "Tell me you know where Heero is. And me and him can finally live together...forever!"

"Relena! Have you been drinking?" Noin asked getting a whiff of the alcohol.

"Looks like she has." Hilde holds up the glass. "Strong stuff by the smell of it too."

"Ok I think Miss Relena needs to be escorted home. And made to sober up. It's inappropriate for a princess to be this way in front of other." Lady Une instructed the other two.

"Oh but the fun is just about to begin." A voice on the stage in front said. "Miss Relena can't leave without finding something she really desired."

All the females in the bar looked over at the stage, as the lights of the stage turned on. Five girls stood in the center of the stage staring out at the small group of eleven females. All but one of them was familiar to at least one of the girls watching them.

"Dorothy!" "Nabiki!" "Mina!" "Kyra!" were shouted at once.

The eleven girls watching were very confused to what was happening.

"Welcome ladies. I would like to introduce to you my four assistances." Mina stepped forward. "This is Mina."

Nabiki stepped forward. This is Nabiki."

Kyra stepped forward. "Kyra."

The final girl with red hair stepped forward. "And this is Tatra. And I'm Dorothy Catalonia, welcome to out auction for Those Worthy."
