Why Tenchi pt. 2
"What!" Ryoko yelped, she had never thought that Hotsuma, of all people, would suggest that. He was the one who'd convinced her to leave Earth in the fist place. "Please listen to me, Ryoko-chan, and don't be angry."

"And if I carried out Ugi's orders, " concluded, "I was to have yo- a reward." He hoped she wouldn't notice the slip-up, but she was to busy trying to understand what he'd just told her. "But why are you telling me, Hotsuma?" "Ryoko, you remember when I told you you were a magnificent partner? Well, that is why I am telling you, because you are such a great partner." "If you say so." Ryoko shrugged, confused. "So, what will it be Ryoko, more pirating or back to Earth?" Ryoko thought about that. Finally, she grinned. Full speed to Earth

"Do you think your friends would welcome me, their former enemy? No, I must go, goodbye Ryoko." She watched as he teleported onto his ship and left for the stars, then she walked to the house.
When she reached the door, she turned back. "Hotsuma." I hope we meet again. She said, thoughts and voice mixing together as she opened the door and turned her back to the stars.
