CHAPTER THREE:

As Ryoko and Tenchi went through the front door they saw Sasami and Washu staring at a box not knowing what to do with it. Ryoko burst out laughing. The noise broke Washu and Sasami out of the trance.

"Oh hello Little Ryoko," said Washu. Ryoko winced at 'Little Ryoko.'

"What the heck are you two doing," Ryoko inquired while giggling.

"We were trying to find a way to put your package in you room," Sasami answered still perplexed.

"I'll take it up there myself." Ryoko picked up the box and teleported to her room. She came back downstairs and took Mayuka from Washu.

"Oh dear. I forgot all about her," Ryoko's mother, Washu, said.

Sasami went to the kitchen to get lunch ready. Ryo-Ohki followed her, but first she changed into her humanoid form.

"Man am I hungry," Tenchi said.

"I bet Mayuka's hungry too," Ryoko scowled at Washu.

"It's not my fault. She didn't make any sound," Washu answered back.

"I'll go get Grandpa," Tenchi said over his shoulder when he walked away.

"And I will set the table for lunch," said Washu.

Mayuka started to cry. Ryoko got a bottle of milk and fed her. Mayuka finished after she drank half the bottle.

"You must have been hungry," commented Ryoko. She got ready to burp Mayuka when she heard a crash.

At Galaxy Police Headquarters earlier that day……

"We're here," Kiyone announced. Where could everyone be? She asked herself.

All of a sudden she heard a scream. "Ahhh! Help me!" some person screamed.

Kiyone and Mihoshi ran towards the scream. They saw the General of Detectives lying on the ground in a pool of blood. Mihoshi ran to her side. "What happened?" Mihoshi asked.

"The class A-3 criminal Soji escaped from his cell," the general answered slowly.

Kiyone saw him run down the hall out of the corner of her eye. She started to run after him but Mihoshi called to her. "What should I do?"

"Take the general to the hospital and I will go get back up or something to slow down Soji. I'll call for you through our watches if I have a problem, okay?"

"Alright. Be careful."

"I will," Kiyone said as she ran after Soji.

Mihoshi got her first aid kit out and started to clean the general's wounds. After she was done with that Mihoshi saw other GP officers head in the same direction as Kiyone.

Mihoshi grabbed an officer's arm. "What happened? Why weren't there other officers here?" Mihoshi asked the officer.

The officer replied gravely, "Soji escaped from his cell. Other officers weren't at this area because he usually is asleep or eating. And we received the message too late." The officer left as soon as he was done talking.

Mihoshi carried the general to the hospital because she was hurt badly and she became unconscious a few minutes when the officers left. It took Mihoshi quite some time to get to the hospital. When she finally got there, there were not the same amount of doctors and nurses as there was.

Mihoshi brought the general to one of the beds. As she laid her down, the general awoke. "Thank you for saving my life," the general said. The general fell asleep.

Suddenly an alarm went off. Next someone on the speakerphone said that all officials needed to report to Sector 17. Mihoshi didn't want to leave the general's side but a doctor insisted she go. So Mihoshi left. As she went down the halls she saw more and more officers go in the same direction.

All the officials finally made it to their destination. Mihoshi saw Kiyone and went to best friend's side. Mihoshi saw that her friend was injured, but thankfully not critically injured.

"Every officer was called here because as you heard Soji escaped from his cell. Through the security system we have found out that Soji has not left the Headquarters. We all will splint up, four people each group," announced a burly colonel.

Kiyone, Mihoshi, and two other First Class Detectives went to Sectors 18 and 19 to search for Soji. After an hour of searching they found some blood drops. They assumed Soji got injured while fighting off an officer; he also didn't have anything to cover up his wounds. The group followed the drops of blood until Soji surprised them.

Soji jumped onto the nearest GP officer who was Kiyone. Mihoshi and the other officers fired at him. Soji grabbed Kiyone by the neck and lifted her up in the air. She struggled to get down but he tightened his grip.

Mihoshi fired at Soji until he turned around where Kiyone's back faced Mihoshi. The other two officers got behind Soji and stunned him. He lost his grip on Kiyone and she fell to the ground.

Soji also fell to the ground. Kiyone and the other officers handcuffed Soji. While they were doing so, Mihoshi called her superiors to come to Sector 19.

A colonel and two majors came in a rush. They saw that the four First Class Detectives captured Soji. The colonel called all the officers to Sector 19. He wanted to give a promotion to the detectives in front of everyone.

Finally, Kiyone thoughtI finally get the promotion I deserved! Right then the colonel called her name. Kiyone was very grateful.

The colonel also called Mihoshi's name but she said she would rather patrol the solar system that earth was in than be promoted. The colonel said she could do so even if she was promoted.

"Alright! Would you like to still patrol the same solar system and be promoted Kiyone?" Mihoshi asked.

Kiyone nodded her head in agreement. "If it's all right with you Colonel," Kiyone said.

"It's fine with me," he answered back.

Mihoshi and Kiyone hugged each other and told the colonel they would like to go back home. He said it was okay.

The two partners ran to their ship. Kiyone told the ship to go straight to earth. While they were in the earth's atmosphere Kiyone made the Yagami do flips and that's the crash Ryoko heard.
