Tenchi Muyo! : Episode 4- No Need for Baths!

(By the way I'm using the UNCUT version so some scenes might be from there)

                It was a bright and sunny day up in the mountains. Especially at Tenchi and Patrick's great-aunt's hot springs. The whole group came (including Demonta who somehow found a way out of Patrick's box ;) Tenchi, Patrick, Nobuyuki, Ayeka, Sasami, Ryo-Oki and Ryoko in Nobuyki's van. Only Kashuhito was missing. The hot spring was a large wooden building with with many rooms. Most of them were only rooms for guests. Some were open and provided a view of the mountains. And two wings contained the dressing rooms and at the end the open-aired hot springs. The owner was the great-aunt and was very old and short (think little more than child short) and had her gray hair in two buns on the back of her head. Her voice was old and gnarly and sounded like a she was consently wheezing. The girls got out and started looking around. Demonta flew off somewhere. Nobuyuki was talking with the aunt, which left it up to Patrick and Tenchi to carry the baggage. "Oh man Tenchi why do girls need so much to survive?" Patrick said taking one of the larger cases out. "I don't know but don't waste breath you'll need every bit of it." Tenchi replied lifting a small flat package. Suddenly Ryoko teleported onto the bag Tenchi was holding. "Hi Tenchi!" Ryoko said happily. "Hey get off it's heavy!" Tenchi said barely holding on. "Okay I just want to ask you two a few questions." Patrick seemed to realize that "those two" meant him and Tenchi. "What is it Ryoko?" Patrick said putting down the case he was holding. "What exactly happened in that shed?" Ryoko asked directly. "Wha...wha nothing Ryoko why would you think that?" Tenchi said picking up another package. "You've been acting weird since then" Ryoko said bluntly. "No I haven't and nothing happened up there okay?" Tenchi asked getting tired of the conversation. "You were flirting in that shed weren't they Patrick?" Ryoko asked looking at Patrick who seemed to of gotten bored of the conversation and started unpacking more luggage. "Huh? Wha? Flirting hmm I don't think so unless they were speaking in code." Patrick said shrugging. "Code, hah, funny Patrick" Tenchi said unpacking the last of the luggage. "Ooooohhh Tenchi I want you to flirt with me too!" Ryoko said flying up and cuddling herself against Tenchi. "Hey get off, we didn't do anything in that shed okay?" Tenchi said calmly removing himself from Ryoko. "Fine! You can flirt with Ayeka but not with me huh!" Ryoko said disappearing. "Well that went well." Patrick said just before all the luggage levitated up and pushed Tenchi into the trunk and piled up around him. "What does she want from me?" Tenchi asked trying to untangle himself from the luggage. "The day Tenchi gets a clue about woman is the day I get a phone call from the Three Horsemen of the Apocalypse." Patrick said looking over at Ayeka and Sasami.

                (Some time later) "WHAT PEEPING?!" both brothers yelled at their dad. At about the age of 37 Nobuyuki was a tanned man with black hair. He wore glasses and always seemed to have a semi-dopey expression on his face. And his voice sounded quite like a more serious version of Goofy (means no HICUPS!.) He was an honest man at least until he hit the age of 30 when he became a pervert. "Not so loud sons" Nobuyuki said hitting the both of them on the head. Tenchi and Nobuyuki were clad only in towels (Patrick with his bandana and swimming trunks he considered it more of a pool which nobody really minded) they were currently in the men's bath. The men's bath was adjacent to the women's, but the woman's bath was raised in elevation and was separated by a large thick wooden fence. The hot springs were cut out of rock and so were surrounded by rock except for the entrance and parts of the fence. Unfortunately... "Now you see boys up there..." Nobuyuki said pointing up at one large piece of rock that was against the fence and allowed someone to "peek" over the fence. "Is where the woman's bath is where many beautiful woman will be bathing! It would be wrong not to peep!" Nobuyuki said walking over to the rock. "Dad come on you're gonna get caught and then we will all get in trouble!" Patrick said pleading his dad to stop. "Yeah dad Patrick's right stop this." "Hehe" Nobuyki apparently didn't hear them or just ignored them. He took an extra towel and put it on his head tying it around his chin. "What's that dad?" Patrick asked looking at the strange headwear. "Silly, it's traditional wear for "peeping" hehehe." Nobuyki said climbing the rock and looking over the fence. "Hmm noone there yet WHA!" suddenly Nobuyuki fell off and into the water. After making sure that their father was okay they looked up to see what had caused him to fall. Ryoko was looking over the top of the rail. "Hi Tenchi so there you are I've been looking for you for the longest time why don't you come up here the water's much nicer and you get a better view to!" Ryoko said leaning over. "Uh but isn't that the girls bath." Tenchi said looking down. Patrick kept poking his dad to see if he'd wake up. "Did you say something?"

*BEEP* *BEEP* Okay now I said I was using the unedited version. So you know how some of Ryoko's comments sound strange and out of place. Well that's because she in the uncut version she isn't wearing anything. So rather than elaborate on it I'll just keep going so until I say so Ryoko doesn't have anything on okay? Sheesh and don't worry I'll keep it around PG-13.

"AH!"Tenchi said falling backwards. "Huh what?" Patrick said as he turned around "Um... oh my." he said in a weak voice. Ryoko had moved down to the mens bath infront of Tenchi. Ryoko then grabbed Tenchi saying, "Come on lets go Tenchi!" and began to levitate off towards the woman's' side. "Hey wait a second you!" Patrick said grabbing Tenchi's feet and trying to pull him back down. It would of worked had Ryoko not teleported the three of them. "WAH!" "OUCH!" Ryoko who hadn't accounted for Patrick's weight had let go of them and both brothers went tumbling down and landed with a splash. "Patrick get off of me!" Tenchi yelled the best he could underwater. Patrick got up and then pulled Tenchi up to the surface. "Hey you okay Tenchi?" Patrick asked slapping him on the back. "*Cough* *cough* Yeah I'm fine thanks Patrick.""Hi Tenchi." Ryoko said teleporting infront of them. Both brothers got a nosebleed and while Tenchi simply turned around and covered his nose, Patrick ducked behide a rock. Patrick after making sure he had his nosebleed stopped looked around his small area to see..."Demonta what are you doing in the woman's baths?" The small bat had taken hiding behide the rock. "Ssshhhh don't give me away or else..." "OR ELSE WHAT DEMONTA?" Patrick asked loudly. "GAH! THIS!!" Demonta yelled grabbing the bandana off Patrick's head. "Hey you!!!" Patrick yelled before tripping and falling completely underwater. "Hah you need to spend more time in that form anyway as it is "your" form now." Demonta said before flapping off. "GAH!!" Patrick now fully transformed jumped out of the water and on top of the rock. "I'm wet, wet, wet, wet, WET!!" Patrick yelled before saying "Wait I was fine in the water a second ago..." Patrick seemed confused for a moment before a matter of greater importance took over. " I'M WET!" "Oh Patrick, Tenchi hi I didn't know you were here." All conversation stopped as the occupants of the bath looked to see Sasami in a pink towel with Ryo-Oki on her head. Her pigtails were wrapped up in two buns on the back of her head and covered with cloth. "Um it's not what you think." Patrick said lamely. "Whatever" Sasami said before turning around and yelling back though the door. "Hey Ayeka guess what! Patr..." "Sasami! You should know better than to yell you've certainly picked up some bad manners around that Ryoko person..." Ayeka looked came out and took one look around the bath before.... "EEEEEEEEEE!!!" She turned around and ran back where she came. "Ayeka come back!" Sasami said running after her sister. "I'll be right back" Ryoko said teleporting away from Tenchi. Tenchi then looked at Patrick who was still wringing his hair. "What do we do now?" he asked lamely. "No clue but I'M WET!" Patrick said wringing his hair more. "There is more important things than that going on Patrick" Tenchi said looking for an escape route but the door seemed to be the only way out and it happened to lead to the woman's changing area and neither wanted to explain the mess that would make. "Yeah yeah whatever" Patrick said almost completely dry. Suddenly Ryoko phased both her and Ayeka through the wall into the bath. Sasami came through the door shortly later. "Hi again Tenchi" Ryoko said waving. Both Patrick and Tenchi had their eyes carefully averted to avoid blood loss. There was a moment's pause before Ayeka slipped into the water. Ryoko seemed to not be having much fun and decided to would be funny to pull the string on the back of Ayeka's towel. What followed was Ayeka screaming, Tenchi getting a nosebleed and falling underwater, Patrick getting a nosebleed and falling off the rock, Ryoko laughing, and Sasami trying to get the two brothers out of the water and behide the safety of nearby rock. "Patrick, Tenchi you all right?" Sasami asked when they had all taken cover. "Yeah I'm fine..." suddenly Patrick seemed to notice something... "I'M WET!!!" Patrick jumped back up onto the rock and started drying himself off again. "Tenchi are you all right?" Sasami asked figuring that if Patrick could still be loud and energetic that he was okay. "Yeah I'm fine... what is it" Tenchi said noticing that Sasami was staring at him. "Are you sure? Cause your nose is bleeding and you look really pale... You're a naughty boy aren't you Tenchi hee hee!" Sasami said while it seemed that Ryoko and Ayeka were starting a fight. "Wah, wah, it...it was just the hot water!" Tenchi said defensively. "Really?" Sasami said looking Tenchi straight in the eye. "Meow?" Ryo-Oki also questioned. "Sorry for being naughty" Tenchi said bowing his head. "That's a good boy." Sasami said patting his head. "Well I guess it's kinda useless to dry off IN the bath so is Tenchi okay?"  Patrick said leaning down from the rock he was crouched on. "Yeah I'm fine" Tenchi said sighing. Then Tenchi saw something on the side of the rock moving back and forth and back and forth. He got a sly grin on his face before grabbing the object and pulling... hard. "WWWWAAAAHHHHH!" Patrick screamed as he fell back into the water set off balance by having someone pull his tail. SPLASH! "Tenchi that wasn't nice!" Sasami said helping Patrick out of the water. "Wah I'm wet again," Patrick said lamely. All other conversation was stopped when three slaps were heard from the other side of the rock. All three of them looked around to see Ayeka and Ryoko facing off Ryoko with one red mark on her cheek and Ayeka with two on both cheeks. "Um ladies?" Tenchi said timidly. "Grr!" Both growled glaring at Tenchi. "Um... nevermind" Tenchi said ducking back behide the rock with Sasami and Patrick. "This isn't going to be good," Patrick said worriedly. "5 to 1 odds on Ryoko 5 to 1!" Patrick said holding his hand up. "Patrick how could you bet those odds against my sister?!" Sasami said condescendingly. " 10 to 1?" Patrick asked. "That's about right I'll take it." Sasami said nodding. "Tenchi?" Patrick asked looking at the pale-faced boy. "No I don't gamble." Tenchi said holding up his hand. "Hey they've already started guys!" Sasami said looking over the top of the rock. Patrick and Tenchi got up and looked just in time to see Ryoko landing on Ayeka's face. "Oooh that's gotta hurt folks!" Ayeka glared at Patrick before trying to catch Ryoko again in her force field. Ryoko jumped out and landed on a nearby rock. "Oooh good move but to slow on the draw that Ryoko is pretty fast, now on to weather commentary for the fight, Tenchi?" "Well it's a good day with very little wind pretty good weather to be flying around like Ryoko but the humidity might cause a slow in reflexes... back to you Patrick" Tenchi said very sportsmanlike. "Thank you for that insight and now back to the fight... Oh! It seems like Ryoko's trying something!" Indeed she was trying something. "Now you'll see why they call me the "Demon Summoner Ryoko"! I can summon demons from almost anything!" Ryoko said holding the hand with the gem out. "Demon Summoner Ryoko? This fight gets more and more interesting but don't worry we got an expert priest boy on hand for dispelling, right Tenchi?" "Well I'm not exactly ready for that sort of thing yet..." "Well no better time to try than in the field right?" "Um Patrick, Tenchi something's happening!" Sasami yelled pointing at Ryoko. A couple dozen strange ghost-like lights had appeared and began to form into a larger being. "That sure does not look good eh Tenchi?" Patrick said in a very loud voice. "Um mabye we should move?" Tenchi said timidly looking at the ever-growing mass of...spirit. "Mabye Tenchi's right Patrick we should move." Sasami said tugging on Patrick's arm. Just then the creature was completed and stood up. It stood a full 15 feet tall and while being a slightly transparent blue it appeared to be quite solid. It had a mouth full of teeth and had 6 pairs of eyes. It also had two small legs and two very muscular arms. "WAH!" All three onlookers decided to relocate elsewhere. "Now be a good demon and attack that prissy princess." Ryoko said standing just behide it. The creature made no move but simply stood there." Well get going!!" Ryoko yelled kicking it in the head. The creature turned around and looked at Ryoko with a hungry glare. "Um... uh oh!" Ryoko said teleporting out of the way just before the demon destroyed the rock she stood on with one mighty blow. She then reappeared on the fence looking quite angry." Ungrateful beast! I summoned you! Go back to the Earth where you came from!" Ryoko said throwing an energy blast at the creature. It impacted in the creature's side blowing a hole in it. It looked like it was going to die but then reformed itself and actually looked a little stronger. "Hmm... uh... oh! I need TWO gems to control this monster!" Ryoko said looking a little forlorn. The demon turned towards Ryoko and then charged slamming itself into the fence and sending Ryoko flying. "Oh hohohohoho I misjudged you Ryoko this is quite entertaining!" Ayeka said looking quite pleased with herself. At least that was until the demon turned on her. "AHHHHHHH!" she yelled running back through the door to the woman's dressing room. It would have followed except that a certain cat-guy had blocked the way. "Alright if you want to get her you go through me!" Patrick said extending his wrist-claws. Ryoko recovered from her fall and yelled to Tecnhi "Tenchi what are you waiting for go get the sword!" then she disappeared again. Tenchi began to run towards the men's baths to change before realizing something "Sasami what are you waiting for come on!" he yelled but Sasami didn't notice and instead stared at the face-off between the demon and cat-guy. Tenchi took another look and then ran to get probably the only weapon capable of defeating a demon. It was the demon that made the first move charging Patrick. Patrick simply leapt over him slashing down his back. It  regenerated and turned around coming right back at him. WHAM! Patrick still recovering from his jump was hit by a viscous backhand, which hit with a sickening thud and was sent flying over the fence and out of sight. "PATRICK!" Sasami screamed shocked. The demon turned towards her and then charged. Sasami was too scared to even move. Ayeka then ran back into the bath "SASAMI" she screamed overlooking the scene. She reacted quickly using small shield logs to form a protective barrier around Sasami. The demon hit the barrier and it buckled and began to fail. Ayeka was trying too hard to keep the barrier up to do anything else. Sasami finally recovered and started to run just as the barrier crackled and then collapsed. The demon ran full force at the slow-moving Sasami. Just then "RRROOOWWW!!" The fence suddenly cracked and the shattered in all directions as an angry, injured, but not quite dead Patrick came charging through running right into the demon. Of course he went right through it but his claws had shredded the demon and it was hard pressed to recover as fast as it could. It was then that Ryoko (fully clothed) and Tenchi (with pants on) came back. Tenchi held the sword (which happened to be named the Tenchi-ken) and ran at the demon stopping just infront of it. Patrick had recovered and was also in fighting position. Everyone simply stood there for a second before Tenchi said "All right looks like I gotta do this!" then attempted to light the Tenchi-ken. It didn't quite work. "Huh!? Oh come on and just when I need you the most!" he said repeatedly trying to light the sword. The demon had finished reforming and was going to attack Tenchi. But it stopped after having another hole ripped though it by a very angry cat-guy. Tenchi meanwhile kept trying to light the Tenchi-ken. "Tenchi remember your training!" Ayeka yelled from the sidelines. "Oh yeah!" Tenchi said then he stood and concentrated then FWOOSH the Tenchi-ken's bright blue blade light up and then Tenchi charged the demon with his sword in hand. "YAH!" he yelled cleanly slicing it's arm off while Patrick came back with another run though the demon. The demon was now in shreds and seemed to be having trouble pulling itself together. Suddenly the sky turned black, and not with clouds. It was if a black hole had opened up right above them. Suddenly Ryoko burst out yelling "Tenchi! It's a wormhole a spaceships coming though the suction will...!" She didn't have time to finish before the ship came through the portal. It looked very futuristic with a main cone shaped center and had several oblong structures along the sides that seemed to be engines or weapons. It was silver through and through except for a symbol on it's side which was a blue diamond with the letters GP on it. The ship suddenly disappeared back into subspace but parts of it had broken of and shattered scattering debris across the sky. It would never hit ground because just then the "suction" began. Everything directly beneath the wormhole that wasn't weighted down was being sucked up into the wormhole including Tenchi, Patrick, and the demon. The demon although was still in pieces and was torn apart and disintegrated in the suction. "TENCHI!" Ayeka and Ryoko screamed as the boys flew into the sky closer to the black wormhole. Suddenly both Patrick and Tenchi noticed something flying nearby to them. It seemed to be a young woman. She was a little taller than them and had tanned skin with slightly pointed ears. Two of her teeth were slightly more fanglike than normal and she had a very large amount of blonde hair which was done up so it would hang off the top of her head in a big bushy mess. Se wore a very official looking outfit that was quite blue and had the same symbol that was on the ship on her chest. It looked like a badge of sorts. Patrick was closer to her but seemed to be weakened by something and instead of getting her he pushed her towards Tenchi. Tenchi was able to hold on to her. Just then the wormhole closed and the suction stopped. There was a Wile E. Coyote moment where they simply sat there in the air before... "AAAAHHHHH!" all three of them fell back down to good ole Earth. All three splashed down in the bath. "Oh my!" Sasami and Ayeka rushed over to where Patrick was picking up the girl and Tenchi depositing them on the rocks. They noticed that during this he was swaying somewhat as if he was drunk. Ryoko had picked up an object that looked like a wristwatch and was studying it when she remembered something. "Hey on the way back here there was a bunch of blood on one of the rocks down in the men's baths do any of you know what caused it?" She asked looking at everyone. Tenchi and the girl were unconscious but didn't seem to be bleeding. Neither did Ayeka or Sasami. Patrick slowly raised his hand saying "That would be me..." just then several trickles of blood came down from underneath his hair and then he collapsed. "PATRICK!" Sasami yelled rushing to him to keep him above water. "Be all right...."

                (Two hours later) "Ooh... ah... ouch" Patrick moaned trying to wake up. "I think he's coming around!" Sasami said running over. "It's not that special Sasami, the rock simply cut the skin it's not serious." Ayeka said calmly. "I knew he could take it." Ryoko said from across the room. "Too... many... voices." Patrick said struggling to get up. "He's alright," Sasami said checking the bandages on his head. "Okay enough fuss I'm up... urg" he said standing up a little wobbly. Patrick stood up and after a moment looked fine except for the bandage on his head. "I'm just thankful we could minimize damage to the hot springs." Ayeka said tending to the woman lying on the other side of the room. It was true the damage was only in the baths but would still take a while to clean up. "Uh... oh" The woman moaned and seemed to be waking up. "Are you sure your alright Patrick?" Sasami asked looking at the bandage. "Yeah I think I might get a few scratches but other that that I'm fine." Patrick said reassuringly. "Let's check on are other guest." Patrick said walking over to the almost awake woman. "What about Tenchi?" Sasami asked indicating Patrick's brother. Patrick quickly looked him over and said "Hmm...hum... he'll be fine." The woman seemed to just then win her fight and started to get up. "Oh... um... where am I?" She said opening her eyes and sitting up. She had large blue eyes that made her a true blonde. And now that everyone could get a better look at her they saw she was wearing a blue vest over a black shirt with some sort of jean-like pants. Her hair was done up with a red bow and she had a tie on under the vest. "Well your at a hot springs, in the mountains, in Japan, in Asia, on planet Earth, in a solar system, in the Milky Way galaxy did I miss anything?" Patrick said sarcastically. "Oh well... OH MY GOD I'M COME IN CONTACT WITH THE LOCAL PEOPLE!" she yelled astonished. "Um yeah well we'd like to know your name and could you please keep it down I still have a slight headache." Patrick said rubbing his head. "I thought you said you were fine." Sasami said looking at Patrick in the eyes. "Well... um... yeah that's the funny thing well... uh lets just drop it." Patrick said looking kinda embarrassed. "Well I'm... wait oh no where is it!" She said looking at her wrist. "I couldn't of lost it... oh no now what am I going to do?" the woman said looking around her. "What are you missing?" Ayeka said helping her look around. "Is it this?" Ryoko said from across the room holding up a small wristwatch type thing. "Oh yes! That's it thank you for finding it!" she said walking across the room to get it. Ryoko yanked it out of her reach before she could grab it. "Hey thats not nice you got to give it back to me cause it's mine." The woman said looking like she was going to cry. "Hmm... so tell me what is the Galaxy Police doing all the way out here?" Ryoko said smirking. Just then Demonta flew back in. "Hey so what's going... AH POLICE!" Demonta said before flying out the window and back towards the city at top speed. "Huh wonder what brought that... WAIT HE HAS THE BANDANA!!!" Patrick yelled looking very angry. "HEY COME BACK YOU... OUCH!" Patrick yelled as the bandana smacked him right in the face causing him to fall over backwards and right onto... "OOF" Tenchi said as Patrick landed on his midsection. Surprisingly he didn't wake up. "Heh heh oops." Patrick said getting up and putting the bandana on changing to his original self. "Oh my um what was your question again?" the girl said after recovering from the shock. "What are the Galaxy Police doing here?" Ryoko repeated still holding the object. "Well I came here in pursuit of a dangerous criminal and then I was sucked down here by a strange energy and..." she was going to continue but Ryoko held the wristwatch infront of her face. "Oh thank you," the girl said taking it and putting it on. "Hey we didn't catch your name yet." Patrick said remembering. "Oh I'm Detective First class Mihoshi and I..." Just then her wristwatch started beeping. "Huh that's funny it wasn't working before" Mihoshi said looking at her wristwatch with interest. "Oh that's cause I fixed it" Ryoko said looking smug. "Oh thank you but the only people who should know about these things are..." Suddenly she looked very scared. "Are?" Ryoko said smirking again. "You aren't... are you... a... a" Mihoshi said backing off slowly. "Am I what?" Ryoko asked still smirking. Mihoshi looked around and then said in a whisper "Are you a jeweler?" Ryoko promptly fell over. Then getting back up she grabbed Mihoshi by her vest and yelled " NO I'M NOT!" Mihoshi looked a little scared. "Well okay but I thought you were and... hey stop it!" Mihoshi said as Ryoko shook her back and forth. "You know what Ryoko... she a space pirate!" Sasami said putting Ryo-Oki back on her head. "A space pirate... Ryoko?" Mihoshi said just before her wristwatch started beeping again. "Hmm oh!" Mihoshi said as a colorful ring appeared just over her wristwatch. "Hmm... oh my it seems that a the space pirate Ryo-Oki is in the area!" Mihoshi said suddenly all business. She took a gun-like object out of its holder. "Be careful everyone a dangerous space criminal is in the area, the reading says that the criminal is to the north, north-west,  " she said turning around. After that she started walking forward. The beeping on her watch started getting faster. "Oh my I'm not ready for this, the distance is only... only six... inches?" Mihoshi said standing right infront of Sasami who had Ryo-Oki on her head. Ryoko started giggling under her breath. "Is this..." Mihoshi said holding the gun right infront of Ryo-Oki's face. "This is Ryo-Oki!" Sasami said happily. "Ryo-Oki" Mihoshi squeaked out looking quite afraid. Ryo-Oki didn't look afraid instead it leaned forward and took a bite out of Mihoshi's gun. "Please don't eat my gun" Mihoshi said before fainting. She fell over on Patrick who in turn... "OOF!" Tenchi said finally waking up after the second time being hit this time by two people. "WAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Ryoko laughed nearly keeling over. "Wah!? What happened who's this girl?" Tenchi asked standing up. "Tenchi! Patrick! What's going on here!?" the great-aunt asked from the doorway with Nobuyuki in tow. Everyone simply sighed except for Mihoshi who was still asleep.

                (Nighttime at the hot springs.) Patrick woke up suddenly in the middle of the night. "Hmm that was a strange dream," he said getting up and walking outside. "Huh hey what's that?" Patrick said looking up at the sky. There silhouetted against the moon was a large shape but then passed it and disappeared into the night. "I've got a real bad feeling about this..."

                                                                                End
