Mystery in a Dream
Part V of the "Chronicle" Series
By Greg "Puff-Cloud" Kerby
Chapter 1
"According to various reports, they are headed for the
earth at this moment..." explained Yukinojo. Various
screens flashed in front of Mihoshi as the sub-ordinate robot
gave Mihoshi all of the details, some of which she had
already known about, including Kagato's possible survival
after the explosion on the Soja so long ago. "However,
we may also have another report of a escapee from the GP
Prison on Gamma Omaan. The escapee is now the second most
wanted on our Eternally Wanted List. His name is Sumakka,
the infamous brother of Kagato. His crimes include the
assassination of Konachi, the former Head General of the
Jurai defense forces, and member of the Royal family, 714
years ago. His relation to the Royal Family of Jurai was
that he was the current King's brother. His goal was to
obtain the General's key, the Jurai Katars, confirmed to be
the 2nd Generation Master Key." Continued Yukinojo, and
shifted to his left to display a mug of the deceased General. "Mihoshi!!! Are you listening to me?" Cried the robot.
Mihoshi was staring in the direction of the Masaki
residence. The expression on her face was not a happy one.
Yukinojo was beginning to get concerned. "Mihoshi, is
something wrong... Mihoshi?" She looked back at Yukinojo,
who was staring at her up close in the face. "Aaaaahhh!!!"
she screamed the young officer. The robot was motionless.
"How many times must I tell you..." Mihoshi said as
she began to chastise her subordinate, but not before Yukinojo
finished the sentence, "Don't surprise me like that. I know.
But it's the only way I can get your attention." "Well
sorry!" the blonde said firmly. "As I was saying..." as
Yukinojo was speaking, a screen appeared in front of him,
displaying an emergency call on the screen. "Mihoshi...
are you there?" sounded the voice of a familiar green-haired
detective. She recognized the voice immediately. "KIYONE!!!
It's you!" Mihoshi squealed with delight as the image of
her partner filled the screen. A drop of sweat appeared on
the side of Kiyone's face. "YOU IDIOT!!! NOW IS NOT THE
TIME FOR THAT! I HAVE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO DO RATHER
THAN SEE YOU DANCE AROUND ALL OVER THE PLACE!!!" her face
was beginning to turn blood red as she began to catch her
breath. Stray hairs stuck out with vivid detail from her
head. "Sorry.........now what were you gonna say?" uttered
Mihoshi, as she began to pick herself up off the ground.
"I just received a special alert from HQ. There is an A1
class criminal on the loose... and he's on his way to Earth."
Kiyone explained, but was interrupted by Yukinojo, "Sorry
to... well, how do you say it? Burst your bubble, but I have
already received the breakout report from HQ. Sumakka is
indeed on his way to earth."
"And not only that, Washu found out something. Brace
yourself... Kagato may still be alive." "WHAT!?!" the other
two said in unison. "How is that possible Mihoshi? You
wrote in the report in the Kagato case that Tenchi destroyed
him." The two seemed to be confused and angry at the same
time. "It's kinda hard for me to explain, so I guess Washu
will have to explain it to you." Kiyone calmed down. At
least there was one person she could count on to explain
something correctly. "I'll send a notice to HQ." "I am
already one step ahead of you, officer Kiyone," said Yukinojo.
"I've already sent a transmission to the marshal. Also,
I requested that he talk to Washu personally... if that
is all right with you Mihoshi?" He said, turning his head
toward to the blonde police officer. "Umm... sure! I'm sure
she won't mind at all." Kiyone looked at a watch on her
waist. "Good. I'll be within the teleportation range of
Earth within 15 minutes. I have already detected the ship
Sumakka is in. He appears to be within 100,000,000 miles
from Pluto. They will arrive at Earth most likely within
a few weeks at the speed they are traveling in. Looks like
he is preparing for a long battle ahead of time. He thinks
like his brother..." Mihoshi looked back at the Masaki
residence once again.

It was pitch black. And it was cold... like the
inside of your body was caught off guard by an unknown source
of cold air. Yet, there was no indication of a single condition possible of making such a sensation. No. It was nothing like
that. It was a sensation of guilt. And it made Ayeka shiver
unlike anything she had ever felt. And yet, it began to make
her queasy. She curled up into a ball, in an attempt to shake
off the chilling feeling, which proved futile... and it didn't
help ease her nauseating body either.
The princess caught a glimpse of a bright light in her
eyes. And it was beginning to get bigger and brighter, as
if it were getting closer. 'Ayeka...' called out a voice.
'Ayeka...' "Who's there? Hello?" 'Ayeka wake up...' The
blackness of her surroundings turned a blinding white.
A fuzzy image began to appear before her, slowly coming
into focus. Sasami looked down upon her from outside a glass
tube. The young girl smiled as drop of tears streamed down
her face, and landed on the tube. "Sasami... where am I?"
Asked Ayeka in a soft and weak voice. "Inside Washu's lab.
She saved your life." "Where are the others?" Sasami wiped
the tears off her face. Ayeka noticed Ryo-Ohki on top of her
sister's head. The little cabbit hopped onto the tube and
phased through it, landing on the princess' chest. "You
want to keep me company, Ryo-Ohki?" "Miya." Meowed the
creature in agreement, as Ayeka stroked its head. The cabbit
lay down comfortably on her chest. "I'll go get them." Said
Sasami, as she ran off to find her companions. Ayeka ran her
hand through her soft, purple hair, as she heaved a sigh of
relief. There was so much going through her head. What was
that dream about? And what was the strange voice? It was
unlike any she had ever heard before...
"Ayeka, I'm glad you're awake," spoke the soothing
voice of Tenchi. "I am too, Lord Tenchi." The sound of
air being released filled the room. "Stand back, Tenchi.
I'm going to open the chamber." Explained Washu. Her small
fingers rapidly pushed what seemed to be random buttons on
a keypad but the young scientist knew exactly what each one
of their functions. The princess slowly began to slide out
of the glass tube in which she was confined.
***********************************************************
The household seemed desolate. The only people in the
house were Ryoko and Sabi. Sabi's head was racing with
unanswered questions. 'What is going on here?!? And who
is Kagato? They all seem as if he was some kind of foe from
a long time ago... And that young girl, what was her name?
Ayeka??? She seemed interested in my weapons. Argh!!! This
is so confusing! I wonder if "she" has some answers.' Sabi
looked around, searching for Ryoko. "Looking for someone?"
sounded a voice from above. Sabi turned his head in the
direction from which the voice came from. "Ryoko! How in
the hell did you get up there?!?" The demon giggled with
amusement as she began to hover down toward him. I was
wondering if you could answer a few questions?" asked Sabi
as Ryoko landed gently on the sofa next to the young man.
"Hm... No..." were the only words. Sabi was astonished.
'Wait second...' he thought with a devilish grin in his
smile.
"Well... I was going to tell you the no. 1 way that
you can get Tenchi in the sack..." came the only thing she
had always hoped someone would tell Ryoko. Only she would
expect those words from Washu. Her eyes lit up with delight
as she floated down onto the seat next to him. "And only
if you answer a few questions for me. I might be able to
help you all somehow if you get me up to date with the past
and the present." He didn't know why the hell he wanted to
do this. It was just a gut instinct. Maybe he should ask
his Grandfather Shinqei. After all, he was the one who gave
him the damn Katars. 'He should have something to do with
this, because if I am the great-grandson of Konachi, then
he is the son!
