Tenchi Muyo: No need for a Bad Monday, A time for ideas
His eyes were as big as saucers, as he heard her words. She seamed so cold about it, but when she said she deserved no sympathy he tried to speak but with the lump in his throat he could not. When she asked him that last question he did not know how to answer. He finally cleared his throat long enough to speak, "yes, I do. I have for a long time but I did not want to say anything cause I did not want to hurt you." He hung his head as he thought that he was just as guilty of her death as Ayeka was. He had been so concerned about not hurting them that he now realized that he hurt them more by not choosing.
Feeling a hand on his shoulder he looked up at Ayeka. "Tenchi, here is her last gem. Take it to her and tell her yourself how you feel." She was about to hand it to him then a thought hit her, "but remember what has been said has hurt her heart and mind, you must find a way to repair that."
Taking the gem from her he thought about what she said, then he turned to go. As he left Ayeka sat down again and began to think about her actions and words. She was giving up on him, but it did not hurt. For his part Tenchi had headed back to the house but since her arm had not regenerated how could he give this back to her. On his way he thought about how he could give it back to her, but no answer came to mind. "Wait a minute...mind...heart...Ryoko's heart. Ayeka had said that her heart had been hurt and in order to repair her heart I need to talk directly to her...but how?"
Tenchi continued to speak to himself as he tried to find a way to save her. "With her unconscious I just can't talk to her, I am going to have to talk directly to her mind. But how? I have felt her call to me before but that had been her doing. What I need is some sort of power that will link...us..." As he thought he looked down at the gem in his hand. Then the idea came to him, if she can use the gem to talk to Ryo-Ohki them maybe I can use it to talk to her?" He started running for the house and once inside he did not even stop to say a word to Mihoshi as he entered the lab and looked for Washu again.
"Little Washu?"
"Yes Tenchi?"
"I have an idea but I need help from the greatest Scientist in the universe, can you help?"
"Tenchi you know all the right words, but I don't feel so great."
"Maybe this will help, I have Ryoko's 3rd gem, but can you put it on me instead of her?" She looked at him like he was crazy but before she could ask why he told her. "If she can use a gem to talk to Ryo-Ohki then can't I use a gem to communicate with her? If I can talk directly to her I may be able to bring her back." He was smiling as he said the last part.
She thought about it for a moment that told him, "yes I can bond you to the gem, but once bound you will be linked to her just like she is to Ryo-Ohki. Are you sure you want to spend a lifetime connected to her like that?"
"I can think of no better way to spend my life." He was almost beaming when she said that they would be connected permanently.
"One other thing, if you do bond and step into her mind if she rejects you and still wants to die there is no way out. You will die with her." She was very solemn and worried that he may die too.
"To save the life of another you must be willing to loose your own." He had repeated Tsunami's words without even thinking. Although he had not said it to anyone he just said it to encourage himself.
"Are you sure about this?"
"Yes, if I die I die with her, even if were not joined I would still be dead on the inside. I have to try." He was determined to come back with her or not at all. Washu then prepared a bed for him and started making the calculations for joining the gem to him. It was not as simple as slapping it on his wrist; it had to be bonded with his body and hers.
When the calculations were done she looked at him sadly, "Tenchi it can be done but for your body the process will take three months."
His heart sank his one hope of saving her and by the time he could she would already be gone. "Is there any other way? Or a way to speed up the process?"
"I can accelerate it up to one month but it would be such a trauma on you that as soon as you tried to talk to her both of you would die from the shock. To do it faster or safer I would need a lot more power, hell I would need to be a..."
"Need to be a what?" Tenchi was not sure what she was getting to but it appears as though a sudden idea came to her. "Tenchi stay right there, I will be right back." Without another word she was out the door.
Tenchi placed a hand on Ryoko's face and told her, "Ryoko, don't die on me. I'm coming for you. Just like I always have." He placed a kiss on her cheek as he began to cry.
Washu raced out of her lab and up to the princesses' room. She threw open the door and saw Sasami there by the window. The princess turned to her, "Hello Washu, I am ready to help sister." The comment took her completely by surprise. Sasami had been waiting for her but why call her sister? Shoe only gave it a fleeting thought, as there were much more important things to wonder about right now.
When Washu returned to the lab with Sasami she informed the girl of Tenchi's plan but they needed the powers of a goddess to make the bonding go faster. Sasami agreed as Tsunami had told her not the fear the future and she knew that she was supposed to help, but she herself did not have the power only Tsunami did. As if on cue Tsunami appeared and Washu explained it yet again.
When she finished Tsunami spoke to them, "Tenchi this is a very brave and dangerous thing, are you sure about it?" He nodded then told her he was sure. They had him lay down beside Ryoko and taking the gem in her hand she placed it on his left wrist. After a moment his arm began to glow followed by his whole body. But just as quickly as it had started it stopped. He looked at his wrist and the gem was there and was not sliding off. "Tenchi the gem has been bonded to you and to now bond it to her place your hand in hers and touch the gems together."
He did so and as soon as the gems touched there was an incredible heat followed by blackness, as he had fallen into unconsciousness. Tsunami turned to Washu, "they have been joined and they may be out for some time. But there is one thing that you did not know. They have been linked for some time already, this just makes it stronger, but it can be undone without breaking their link." As she said the last word Tsunami was gone again.
Washu thought about what she said could it be possible? How was it possible that they were linked? She began to search through all of her information old and new trying to find out how or when they had become linked. When that turned up nothing she began to replay the past 20,000 years over in her mind trying to find an answer.
