Tenchi Muyo: Wednesday, Mihoshi has an Idea?
Sasami woke up after another bad dream, but seeing that it was morning she instead of waking anyone else up decided to go downstairs and fix breakfast. Tsunami as usual had hidden the details of her dream again, but she still felt the dread and knew that something awful was about to happen. However when she reached the living room she was not prepared for what she saw.
Sitting on the couch typing away on a laptop was Mihoshi with mounds of data pads about her. On her face was a determination that Sasami had never seen before. "Mihoshi?" She knew that she had to say something, but what she did not know just yet.
The blonde replied but she continued working, completely unshaken from her thoughts, "Yes Sasami?"
"Um, what are you doing? What's all of this?" She really wanted to ask her what had happened to her specifically, but she did not know how to phrase that one without it sounding very bad.
"This is all for something that I'm preparing to use later on, but I'll explain it all later, ok? Oh is it time for breakfast yet?" She still kept her attention focused on her work and did not have a hint of her usual self in her voice. It unnerved the little princess, but she politely told her that it wasn't time, but she would start on it.
Next to awaken from her slumber was Ayeka who first went to the onsen to freshen up before proceeding downstairs. Tenchi and Ryoko woke up again in each other's arms again, and were finding that it was definitely a good way to start any day. The two lovers exited his room in time to meet up with Ayeka in the hall as she returned from the onsen. All three of them said their good mornings and proceeded downstairs.
Just like Sasami had done all of them had stopped dead in their tracks at the sight of Mihoshi. Seeing her like this was something that they were just not in the habit of seeing and so it caused them to stop and stare for a while. She happened to look up and see them so she said her good mornings to each of them. Then turning her head towards the Kitchen, "Sasami, is breakfast ready we have a very busy day ahead of us?"
"Not yet, but what's up anyway?"
"Well, come in here if you can," she stood up and cleared off a pile of her data pads, "would you please sit here?" She motioned for Tenchi to sit beside her with Ayeka and Ryoko close as well. At first Ryoko was not happy with not being able to sit right beside Tenchi, but with several mental reassuring thoughts and words from him she finally agreed. Once Sasami finally joined them she told them what happened and handed each one a data pad.
"Last night I got a call from my headquarters and was recalled to space, but the assignment was to escort twenty battle ships from Jurai to the Earth." Everyone started asking her questions like why, how, what's the meaning of this, but she waved them off and continued. "It seams that the Jurai Supreme Counsel has taken it upon themselves to investigate what caused their power drain the other day." She looked over at Tenchi and Ryoko and continued, "but the last time they investigated anything it meant that they forced the planet back into submission and a number of the inhabitants were tortured until they had the information that they wanted." Ayeka looked down in shame, as she knew that her people had done some less than agreeable things.
"As I said there are twenty, but they have enlisted the help of the GP so there is two escorts per battle ship. As I see it there are three things we can do from here." Everyone was waiting for her to finish almost expecting her to return at any moment to her normal self. "We can give ourselves up, but that means that Yosho, Ayeka, Sasami and even Tenchi will return to Jurai guarded closely while I will have to return to the GP. Ryoko will most likely be jailed or executed for her crimes of the past."
"Like hell I will! And no one is taking Tenchi from me! This is..." Ryoko was almost ballistic, but Tenchi cut her off.
"How can she be arrested when her files were deleted?" Tenchi was confused; Ayeka had told them before that the galaxy wanted file for Ryoko had been deleted a long time ago.
"Well, many in the counsel do not like Miss Ryoko and it is the counsel that set the standards for when files are deleted and they can extend that time which they already have. At this moment her files have been restored and are set to be deleted again in another five hundred years."
Rage was all that Ryoko could feel; it sickened her that now, now that her life was finally coming together that it was about to be taken from her. Ayeka herself was not at all pleased with this turn of events, if this happened then, well she did not want to think about that.
"Mihoshi, um how do you know all of this?" Tenchi was trying his best to control his anger, but it was starting to show on his face.
"Silly, I have told you before that my grandfather is the GP Grand Marshall, I just used his passwords to gain top secret access to it." She let out a small giggle then returned to her serious look. As I said there are three choices, one is to give up. The second is to fight back."
"Yea! That's more like it! Let's destroy 'em..." she was again cut off by Tenchi, but he did it mentally as to not confront her openly about it.
"Ryoko, we are not killers, I don't want hundreds of lives lost over this. But understand this, if they try to separate us there will be no remorse felt for what happens. Please there has to be another way." She nodded her head at him as he addressed them all. "I am not willing to just lay down and let them take us all away, and I am not prepared to spill blood over this unless forced to. There has to be another way." The other girls looked at him and everyone agreed. "Mihoshi, what is the third option?"
"Glad you asked Tenchi," as she spoke her old voice made a small comeback then was gone again. "Since this Planet is under the authority of Jurai not much else can be done but revolt, unless it is proven that this planet is not legally under Jurai protection or jurisdiction. According to the Jurai Supreme Counsel's statutes for governing systems section 2315.2 section 'c'." She cleared her throat and red from a data pad. "Any system may come under the protection of the Jurai Supreme Counsel and or the Jurai Royal family if the populous of the system elects to do so in a majority vote or if the Guardian of said system elects to do so."
They looked at her as if not getting the meaning, "Ok here it is simply, they have say over this system if the majority of the people accept it, or if a guardian of the system allows it." The others still looked at her and Tenchi was the one to speak up.
"But, no one but us knows of Jurai on this planet and there is no guardian that I know of around here." He paused if searching for the words and Ayeka caught on to it.
"This planet is not under their protection legally!" She almost shouted it, as she was happy to have caught on.
"That's right! But since there has been inhabitants on Jurai here for the past 700 years they may claim that because of that they have a right to this, so a guardian needs to be appointed." Mihoshi was happy that the others seamed to be catching on.
In her normal smart-ass attitude Ryoko asked, "ok, so how do we setup this guardian?"
"Oh that one is easy, in the Galaxy Police Handbook concerning systems controlled by a guardian there just has to be one that protects the inhabitants of said world, but cannot be well known as to show favoritism to a specific area. This Guardian must show that he is duly capable of protecting this world." When she stopped all eyes were on Tenchi.
