And So It Begins, Again?
Chapter 1 The Start Of The Beginning
This is a sequel to my other story, And So It Begins I hope you enjoy it!
Though this story is pretty self explanatory for those who have read my other story, if you don't understand it email me and I will try and fix it, and sorry for the bit of anti-heaven sentiments in there I really didn't mean it I just needed some excuse for him to not be able to communicate with the outside world and some humor. If you take offense to this, sorry I try to write a good story…
Kerro looked around "my time is almost up, so all I want to say is, don't feel guilty about me, don't worry, and get on with your lives if you do that everything will be fine" he said frantically, "who knows maybe we will see each other again someday" he said as the last of his power was fading, all he could say was "goodbye", than he was gone.
Shoalan opened his eyes; it was 4:00PM, "No! I must have fallen asleep!" "I didn't get anything done today!" than he sat down and remembered that he didn't have anything to do that particular day. "I can't wait until that job application gets through" Shoalan sighed, he was applying to get a job as a guard for a different bank, one that could employ him full time instead of just nights. Then he would have something to do besides, lie around the house doing nothing for 12 hours. He didn't really train swords much anymore, besides the usual weekly practicing, because he didn't see the need to do it full time again as he needed all of his energy to stay awake during some of the long nights he's had. "All right Sakura!" their photographer said, "we're done for today, and I will see you again tomorrow, usual time" "alright thank you Mr. Mihara". Sakura got up to leave, but felt a strong pain in her side, which caught her off guard and she almost fell over. "Sakura?" her boss said "are you alright?" she asked concerned, "hai, hai I'm fine Ms. Keiki" she said through gritted teeth, "just a cramp I guess" she said, but she didn't even believe it, she knew that something else was wrong with her, she just didn't know what it was. "Alright, do you think you can make it home?" "Hai, I'm fine" Sakura said reassuringly as she walked out of the building. "This side has been hurting me a lot lately" Sakura thought, "I wonder what it could be?". All of a sudden, her vision started getting blurry, and she felt very ill, she felt so sick that she didn't notice that she had reached the end of the sidewalk and was walking in the street. Kerro was watching all of this from his perch in the clouds, "Watch out Sakura!" he screamed frustrated that he could do nothing to help her when all of a sudden a bright light surrounded him… Sakura's eyes where clearing up, just in time to see a truck speeding towards her, she didn't have enough time to run away, the truck was inches away from hitting her when she felt herself being pushed out of the way just in the nick of time. As she fell to the sidewalk she noticed who her savior was, it was Kerro, "well, I said I might come back one day right?". "Kerro! It's really you!" she said as she ran up to him, hugging him, Kerro was a little caught of guard, he had only gotten permission to watch what was going on in the world a year ago, so he had missed a lot. "Now, Sakura!" he said blushing "don't you think you are a little old for that?" Sakura stood up and looked around at everyone staring at them, she blushed, "your right Kerro, but how did you get here?". "I will tell you later, but right now there are two people I really want to see, and one of them is on the way so lets walk" he said as he took Sakura's hand to help support her. "So Kerro, what is heaven like?" Sakura asked curiously, "it's boring, it is the same thing everyday, peace and serenity, I went nuts after my first day!" "oh, that's nice" Sakura said sweatdropping. They turned the corner and walked up to the house, Sakura fumbled with the key and walked inside, with Kerro helping her. "Sakura, is that you?" Shoalan asked from the kitchen, "yes, its me and I brought a friend", "hmm, I wonder who that could be?" he thought as he walked into the living room. He saw Sakura on the couch and slightly to the right of her there was Kerro, "KERRO! What the heck are you doing here?" Kerro just shrugged and continued looking at Sakura with interest. Shoalan looked at her too and noticed that she was clutching her side, "what's wrong Sakura?" he asked full of concern as he walked over to her. "Nothing really, just my side it's been hurting for a couple of days, but never this bad before", "I got it!" Kerro said jumping up suddenly. "What?" Shoalan and Sakura said at the same time startled, "I may not be the best at diagnosing diseases, but I have a 'friend' who might just be able to help us, though I must warn you not to be shocked at his appearance" Kerro said seriously. "alright Kerro, your advice is usually the best advice in these matters" Shoalan said, "alright then" Kerro said as he waved his hand a red phone appeared floating in the air. Kerro grabbed the receiver and dialed a bunch of numbers, ring, ring, ring click… on the other end of the line a certain reddish haired woman was working in her lab when the phone popped up behind her and began ringing. "Damn! Why do they always call when I am in the middle of an important experiment!" she yelled as she forcefully grabbed the phone of the hook "moshi moshi Masaki residence, Washu Hakubi speaking" she said grumpily. "Why miss Washu did you get off the wrong side of the bed this morning, or did you not sleep at all?" came a voice she recognized immediately. "Kerro?" she said dropping her wrench, "hello Little Washu, how are you today?" "Fine, how are you?" she said weakly, "fine, how is Ryoko doing?", "fine, she is off shopping with Tenchi and the others", "that's nice". "Umm Washu is Kerro there?" "Yes, he is helping me in the lab right now", 'darn, I guess you can't be bothered than, I would only need him for a second, but I know how important your experiments are so I will try back later". "No! Kerro it's fine he can go off for a few hours it's fine with me" "thank you Ms. Washu" Kerro said before hanging up the phone. He turned around to see Sakura and Shoalan gaping, "Kerro, was that just a coincidence that your friends are named after the characters on Tenchi Muyo, or are they…" "yes, they are in a parallel dimension, and bless those cartoon creating hearts that made Tenchi Muyo, they screwed up". "How so?" "Washu had a son and a daughter, another Kerro just like me except different". "Oh, is that so?" Shoalan said not really believing it, "yes, and knowing him, he should be here right about…" a portal formed behind them "now" a figure stepped out and was silhouetted by the light from the portal until it closed. "well, hello Kerro nice to see you again" "nice to see you again as well Kerro, how goes the pregnancy?" "it's going alright, mom says I they are due in a couple of weeks" "that's nice, though I don't think my friends over their understand a word we are saying so lets go talk with them" our Kerro stated "fine with me, who is my patient?". "That would be the one on the couch" Kerro said motioning over to Sakura, they both walked over to Sakura while parallel Kerro talked with Sakura. "alright Sakura, my name is Kerro Hakubi, I am sure you have all watched the T.V show so you probably just about know everybody by name so I wont bother to explain it all", "anyway, I am going to do a little examining, but don't worry I am a doctor" "umm, Kerro?" our Kerro asked "what?" "why don't you let Zanzalin do it, she knows more about doctoring than you do, and she is a woman so any examining may be less uncomfortable" "your right Kerro good point". "Alright then, now Sakura, I am going to introduce you to somebody very special to me, she is also a doctor, so you shouldn't worry about anything" Sakura nodded, and Kerro stepped back a few paces. He just stared ahead blankly and said "alright Zanzalin, I have some people you might want to meet", nothing happened for a moment, but then a flash of bright light engulfed Kerro and when it had subsided a beautiful young woman, with reddish brown hair stood. "Hello, my name is Zanzalin, nice to meet you" she said as she bowed, nobody knew what to say except Kerro who approached her smiling. "Well, nice to see you again Mrs. Zanzalin, you are looking as beautiful as usual this evening" he said watching her turn away blushing. "Thank you, Kerro so the problem is this woman over here?" "yes that's the one, you have more experience in these matters than I or Kerro does so, if you don't mind" "certainly". She walked over to Sakura who was still on the couch, "alright Sakura, this might feel a little weird, but don't worry I will just be scanning you" "alright" was all she could say. Zanzalin put her hand out near Sakura's side and moved it up and down her, mumbling things like, "alright, nutrients pooling in one place" "cramping near the stomach", until she finally let her hand rest down. "Ok Sakura through what I have been able to gather…" she looked at both Shoalan and Sakura with a smile on her face, "your 3-6 months pregnant and it's a girl", Shoalan almost fainting would be an understatement. "You… you mean that… that she is pr… pregnant! But how?" "Dear god Shoalan what did they teach you in college?" Kerro said chuckling, "one –special- night, or one little unexpected fling, is enough to cause these kinds of things" Kerro said trying with all of his might not to laugh, because he knew this was serious. "Well, you two probably have a lot to talk about so, I think I will go have a chat with parallel Kerro and Zanzalin in the kitchen" "yeah, sure Kerro go do that" Shoalan said holding Sakura's hand. "So how is your pregnancy going any cramps or…" Kerro's voice trailed off as he walked towards the kitchen.
What the heck is going to happen next? I have no idea! I will though, I have decided that I have kept you waiting long enough for the sequel so I have put this into chapters I hope you enjoy!
