That Night without Tenchi-Ch.3
Tenchi held her in his arms tightly, keeping her warm.
"I never...thought you loved me, Tenchi..."
"Ryoko," Tenchi was crying deep into Ryoko's shoulder, "I'm so sorry for everything I've ever done to you."
"Don't cry, my Tenchi...I'm sorry, too, for everything I've ever done to you."
"Ryoko, what ever happened to Ryo-Ohki?" Kiyone inquired gently. She knew this was not the time to ask, but she had to know. My curiosity is getting the better of me.
Ryoko looked down as her eyes watered. "She died...trying to save...me..." Ryoko sniffed, "as I...died trying to save her..." Ryoko looked up strait into Kiyone's eyes.
"I'm so sorry, Ryoko."
"But Ryoko," Tenchi began quietly, "if you are here, then how could you of died?"
"You see, my Tenchi, it was your tears that caused me to come back...your tears of true love." Tenchi gazed into her golden eyes. "I love you Tenchi, and I always have, even when...I knew I should of hated you..." Ryoko gently kissed his lips...and he kissed back. They broke away and Ryoko beamed lovingly at Tenchi.
"But I cried for Ryo-Ohki, too..."
"Tenchi, Ryo-Ohki wanted to die for me. A part of me wanted to die for her too, but a part of me wanted to stay...because I still loved you Tenchi." Ryoko started to cry. "But I miss Ryo-Ohki so much! She has been my best friend as far back as I can remember..."
Tenchi hugged her tighter.
"I miss her, too Ryoko." Said Kiyone, but then something struck her. "Hey Tenchi, if you loved Ryoko and cried for her, and she came back to life, what about Mihoshi?"
"Mihoshi is dead? When did that happen?" Ryoko kept forgetting how weak she was. "Oh, ow."
"What's wrong, Ryoko?"
"I'm just weak, Tenchi, that's all. I am weak from missing you. You were my only strength after when Kagato did to me. All the screaming and blood! I was on the verge of killing myself!"
"You mean when he made you kill all those people?" Kiyone asked.
"Yes, I was under his control...I kept screaming 'No! I don't want to hurt these people!' as I stabbed them and made them bleed. Innocent children and their defenseless brothers and sisters, then their parents! Oh Tenchi it was horrible. A massacre done solely by...me." Ryoko's eyes could not be any redder at this point; she was crying her eyes out.
"Ryoko, I'm sorry he made you do that. If I could, I would make you forget all those awful thing...I wish I could!"
Ryoko felt faint again from all her crying. She needed rest, she needed food, and most of all, she needed her Tenchi. She rested her head on his shoulder and rapped her arms around him, and Tenchi did the same. In a half sleep she said, "But what about Mihoshi? How did she die? Poor Mihoshi..."
Kiyone was very surprised at how sad Ryoko was at her death. I would of thought Ryoko would hold a grudge against Mihoshi for all eternity! She did kinda take Ryoko away from her...but I guess that is all put away now. Kiyone smiled.
"Tenchi, Mihoshi, and I were going to Jurai, to live. Tenchi was to marry Mihoshi when he got there, but she became deathly ill...and died a little while before we found you."
"Mihoshi..."Ryoko was crying with the little strength she had left. "But why Jurai?" she questioned.
"I was to take over the emperor's throne, and take Ayeka as my second wife."
"Ayeka??" Ryoko was bewildered, but then fell into a deep sleep...
"Ryoko, wake up...Ryoko?"
"Huh? What happened?" Ryoko could feel that some strength had returned to her.
"Were on Jurai!"
"Jurai? But why Jurai?" Panic suddenly struck through Ryoko's heart.
