In space, a Galaxy Police spaceship...
"Mihoshi!" Kiyone shouted. "What did you do now?" Kiyone waited for a reply, but didn't hear one. She pushed a button on a nearby controlpad.
Mihoshi and Kiyone were busy patrolling in their Galaxy Police ship. At least until the ship came to a sudden stop because of an explosion.
"Computer, can you please locate Mihoshi?" Kiyone spoke. After a few computer beeps, the computer spoke. "Officer Mihoshi is located in the engine room."
"Engine room?" Kiyone quietly said. "Oh no...don't tell me..."
Mihoshi was coughing loudly. The engine room was filled with black smoke. "Oh...I knew I shouldn't have taken that part out of the engine..." Mihoshi sobbed out.
The engine room doors opened wide, letting light in and smoke escape. The figure of Kiyone stood in the doorway.
"Mihoshi! What did you do? What is all this smoke?" Kiyone shouted.
"Oh Kiyone! I'm so happy you're here!" the dust covered Mihoshi ran up to Kiyone and held her tight, sobbing. "The engine..the engine...I was fixing it...and then it just...stopped...and then something exploded inside it! Waaah!" Mihoshi kept crying.
Kiyone sighed loudly. "Well...I'm glad you didn't get hurt. But the ship isn't moving anymore. What happened to the engine?" Kiyone took a few steps towards the stopped engine.
"No! Kiyone! Don't step there!" Mihoshi screamed as Kiyone kept walking.
"Huh?" Kiyone was able to say. At least before she found herself surrounded in smoke and another explosion sounded.
"Kiyone...that's where I put the engine parts that exploded...I thought most of them were defused already..."
"Oh! MIHOSHI! I'm going to get you!"
Back at the Masaki household...
"Tenchi..." Sasami said. "Are you alright?"
"I'll be okay...eventually." Tenchi managed to groan out. He was lying down on the couch as Sasami and Ryo-oh-ki watched over him.
"I told them they used too much spice..." Sasami said.
While Sasami was busy tending to Tenchi, Ryoko and Ayeka were arguing in the kitchen.
"Your food made him sick!" Ryoko shouted.
"No! It was yours!" Ayeka screamed.
"Mine? There's no way! I followed the recipe perfectly!"
"Did you really?"
"Yes!" Ryoko stuck her tongue out at Ayeka.
"Oh...well, let me see then." Ayeka picked up a measuring cup. "Where's that recipe? Ah!" Ayeka read over it. "3 teaspoons of spice? Ryoko, can you please point out where 3 teaspoons is?" Ayeka held out the cup.
Ryoko grabbed it violently. "I'll show you where it is. Ryoko placed it on the counter and poured in spice. "Here!"
"Ryoko...of course you of all people would commit such a common mistake."
"What? What are you talking about?"
"Ryoko, this is 3 tablespoons."
Ryoko peered at the cup. "No...it's teaspoons."
"Washu!" Ayeka shouted. "Would you come look at this?"
"Hrm?" Washu got up from the table and looked at the cup. "Oh you're right Ayeka. Three tablespoons." Ayeka stuck her tongue out at Ryoko.
Ryoko growled and got a mean look on her face. "Bah! Three teaspoons, three tablespoons, it doesn't matter!"
"You think?" Ayeka said. "Try some of your food then."
Ryoko mumbled under her breath and ate some of her cooking. Almost instantly, she had a weird look on her face and fainted right to the ground. Ayeka just stood there, laughing hysterically.
Back on Mihoshi and Kiyone's ship...
"Mihoshi...at the very least, please tell me you found out where that ship was headed." Kiyone said, in between working inside the engine.
"Umm...which ship?" Mihoshi asked.
"What do you mean which ship!? There was only one!"
"Oh! Kiyone, you'll be so proud. I did!" Mihoshi exclaimed happily.
"Amazing. She did something right." Kiyone muttered quietly. "So. Where is it headed?"
"Umm...from this reading, it looks like Earth."
"EARTH!?" Kiyone shouted.
"Oh no! Did I do something wrong?" Mihoshi said.
"No no...but we need to get this ship moving again! We can't let anyone get onto Earth."
"Yes Kiyone!" Mihoshi shouted.
"Alright. You'll have to help me. Hand me a screwdriver." Kiyone said. Nothing happened. "Mihoshi? A screwdriver please." Still nothing. "MIHOSHI!"
"Sorry Kiyone!" Mihoshi shouted from the cockpit. "My show is on. I'll be with you in about...20 minutes?"
Kiyone fell backwards and groaned quietly.
The mysterious spaceship had stopped, holding orbit over Earth.
"Computer, go into stealth mode and hold orbit over Earth until you recieve further orders." the mysterious figure said.
"Yes. Order recieved."
"Well then. It's time to get what I need."
Someone was knocking on the door of the Masaki household.
"Huh? Who is it this late?" Sasami said. Tenchi was sleeping off his upset stomach. Ryoko was nearby, sleeping on another couch, still knocked out from trying her own food. Sasami was watching over both of them until she heard the knocking. She slowly opened the door.
Washu was standing on the porch when Sasami opened the door.
"Washu! What are you doing outside?" Sasami exclaimed.
"I'm sorry Sasami. I was...um...working on some more portals and one of them led me outside." Washu said.
"Why didn't you just go back through it?"
"Oh...well, the portal closed just as soon as I got out so I couldn't!" Washu said nervously.
"Better luck next time then. Come in come in! It's cold out." Sasami ushered Washu inside.
"Thanks Sasami." Washu walked over towards the kitchen.
"Washu? Where are you going?" Sasami asked.
"Um...to my lab, of course." Washu said.
"Silly Washu. Your lab is over there!" Sasami pointed to the broom closet.
"Of course! I was just seeing if you remembered. Good night Sasami."
"Night Washu." Sasami watched as Washu opened the door to her lab.
As Washu opened the door to the lab she looked around at its size.
"Wow...such a lab in such a small space. She must have got a lot farther than I thought." Washu quietly said.
Walking quietly and not making a sound, Washu inched her way towards a table stacked with various items.
"This is perfect! She's gotten so far. I have to do almost no work!" Washu exclaimed happily.
"Miss Washu!" a voice said.
"You're back!" another voice said.
"Oh no!" Washu said. She looked around. No one was nearby. "Where's that voice?"
"Ah! I love that greeting." Washu said from the doorway.
"Washu is the greatest!" one of the dolls said.
"I agree!" said the other.
"Damn! She's back already!" the Washu near the table said.
"Hey? Who's over there?" the Washu at the doorway said, looking at the table. "Did you see anything?" Washu asked the dolls.
"No Miss Washu!"
"Neither did I!"
"Interesting." Washu walked over to the table.
"Oh Miss Washu! I'm so sorry for coming in without telling you." said Ayeka, who was now standing at the table.
"Miss Ayeka. I'm glad it's only you. I thought it was someone else at first." Washu said with relief.
"Whatever do you mean?"
"I've been tracking a spaceship that's been orbiting Earth for awhile. At first I thought it was Mihoshi and Kiyone, but I found out it's not theirs. I found out whose ship it was and recognized it immediately."
"Who's...who's ship is it?" Ayeka asked nervously.
"It doesn't matter. Just some scientist I used to work with. Brilliant mind." Ayeka smiled happily at the comment. "But insanely jealous." Ayeka's smile insantly turned into a scowl and Ayeka held her fist right over Washu's head. Washu quickly turned around and Ayeka just smiled nervously, moving her fist back just in time.
"Anyway, I should check up on it." Washu stepped up to her floating keyboard and typed in some commands. "Ah. This is very interesting."
"What is Miss Washu?" Ayeka said, stepping up to the console.
"The ship! It's vanished off the radar! I can't find it anywhere."
"Maybe it left?"
"Possibly...but..." Washu put in a few more commands. "If it did though, I would be able to see some ship exhaust trails. But nothing! Like it just vanished into nothingness.
"Well, if you'll excuse me Miss Washu, I have to get to sleep." Ayeka said.
"Of course. Good night Ayeka."
"Good night Miss Washu."
Ayeka stepped out of the lab and right back into the house hallway. "Damn...I almost was able to get it. Don't worry...just go back when she isn't in." Ayeka said quietly to herself. She started to laugh hysterically.
"Wha?" Sasami said quietly, partly asleep in the same room with Tenchi and Ryoko. Ayeka ducked behind the wall and waited until Sasami went back to sleep. When Ayeka saw Sasami was, she snuck out the back door and into the forests surrounding the house.
"I'll just wait until morning to come back. Can't risk getting caught." Ayeka said, running through the forest.
Back on Mihoshi and Kiyone's ship...
"All right Mihoshi! Try it now!" Kiyone said through the ship intercom.
"Here we go!" Mihoshi exclaimed. She pushed a few buttons on the control pad and ship started to hum.
"Come on come on...move..." Kiyone said from the engine room. Slowly, the ship started to move.
"Yay! Kiyone! The ship is moving!" Mihoshi shouted happily.
"Finally! I'll be with you in the cockpit after I take a shower." Kiyone said.
"Yes Kiyone. I'll be waiting for you then!"
As Kiyone took her first steps out of the engine room, the ship came to sudden halt. Kiyone came crashing into the wall.
"KIYONE!" Mihoshi sobbed through the intercom. "The ship stopped! We were so close!" Kiyone sighed loudly and went back into the engine room.
"Mihoshi!" Kiyone shouted. "What did you do now?" Kiyone waited for a reply, but didn't hear one. She pushed a button on a nearby controlpad.
Mihoshi and Kiyone were busy patrolling in their Galaxy Police ship. At least until the ship came to a sudden stop because of an explosion.
