/Oh geez, you'd think this thing would work! / Tenchi Masaki cursed mentally as he pounded away on the small buttons of Washuu's calculator, and like always he was completely oblivious to the things happening around him. The girl in front of him, a young person of sixteen, only a year younger than Tenchi, cheerfully wrote down the last answer to the test and got up to hand it in.
/Hmm, know lets see, / Tenchi began to punch in the numbers, and then hit the subtract button.
A loud wail came from the baby, now swimming in a lake of clothes, and a finished test clutched in its chubby hand.
"Who let that baby in here?" Mrs. Rei asked, plucking the child up from where it continued to cry.
/...and then you hit the add.../
A sharp cry later and there stood a woman of sixty clutching a tiny child in her weathered and callused hands. "WHAT THE?!"
"Hey Tenchi! Did you see what just happened?" A new student by the name of Sakuya asked, glomping onto the boy's arm. He looked over to her, and shrugged, continuing his test.
Unknowingly pointing Washuu's troublesome device at the short haired girl and clicked in the add button once again.
"Can you help me with this prob..?" Tenchi's mouth went dry, and his words forgot the way out of his throat as he looked over to see a very well fattened Sakuya sitting to the side, tipping her now large head to the side in question. "AHHH!"
/I can almost count the moments to freedom!/ Chibi Ryoko first voice smirked mentally to the child.
/But I don't want to grow up! I like being little!/
/Too bad, kid! /
/You can't tell me what to do! I'll tell Mommy about you!/
/And I'll give you a headache so painful it'll make your nose bleed./
The first voice began to carry through with its threat, and Chibi Ryoko whimpered against the pain. It felt like a hand was tightening around her brain, trying to shove it into a walnut.
"Chibi?" came Washuu's worried voice. Her little daughter lay in the fetal position, her knees touching her tiny nose. "What's the matter?" Laying a gentle and concerned hand on Ryoko's slim arm, the pink haired genius was caught off guard when the child's eyes snapped open, it's tiny hands wrapped around her throat.
"Change me back!" Chibi-Ryoko commanded, her eyes glowing an eerie red as she leaned foreword towards her mother's face. Just as quick as the fit had come on, the child moaned and fell back releasing Washuu's neck as Chibi Ryoko fell back, and into a world of blackness.
As she stared down at the child, the short woman felt a shiver course through her body as she realized her tiny flaw in the otherwise perfect plan.
/I have to get that calculator back! / Washuu said firmly within her mind. /If I don't, Ryoko will be killed and everything that I try to fix will only happen again! / Tears sprung to the lady's eyes, as she picked up the unconscious baby girl and placed her on a small cot located in the lab.
"Damn you, Zero."
