Hieee!!! YAY! I'm almost finished! All I need to do is this! Well, please sit back and enjoy the aftermath of the battle!



Future Shocked: The Aftermath



Washu's lab



The futuristic self of Ryoko lay in Washu's health chamber. A light green dome covered her, helping the wounds heal faster. "Well, Washu? What's the stat?" Eclipse asked. "Don't worry, Eclipse, everything will be fine, you see Kagato wasn't exactly after your parents, but more after you and the gems you hold..." Washu said. "Washu! I know that! I want the stats of my mother! Is it that hard?" Eclipse asked. "Oh, well, chill! All right? Your mother is going to be fine; Kagato didn't get her that hard. He just took all her energy for payback of what..." Washu noticed the look of Eclipse's father, "and I don't think I should be talking about this anymore huh?" Eclipse nodded. "You don't have to go into detail Washu, it is hard enough just to think about the events of last night, just try not to make it harder," Eclipse remarked. Washu nodded. "Well, could you please leave? I need to run some tests on Ryoko," Washu said. "Wait, Washu, I would like to stay here, if it is ok, after all, she is my wife," Tenchi said. "Ok, you may stay, but Eclipse has to leave, I can't have more than two people around here when someone is injured and I'm trying to heal them!" Washu said. "Aww... Well ok, but I get to be the first one out of everyone else to visit my mother!" Eclipse said. Washu nodded slightly. Eclipse went up to her dad and hugged him, "See ya later dad," Eclipse exited.



On the Roof of the Misaki Home



Ryoko (You know the present-time one, not Eclipse's mom) rested her head on Tenchi's lap. He stroked her cyan hair softly. Thinking about the events that happened, Ryoko's eyes glowed with a question in them. 'How did we get roped into this crazy situation?' Ryoko asked.

'Well, Eclipse is our future daughter.'

'To think someone could turn your whole world upside-down in one day...'

'Well... I do recall that one day...'

'Oh ya, how could I forget that? When I came and turned your life upside-down in one day.'

' Yes, that was the day...'

'How far in the future do you think Eclipse was born?'

'I don't really know, why do you ask?'

'I don't know, it just came into my mind.'

'Maybe you're thinking about when we're going to get married?'

'How did you know?'

'Hey, I just do.'

'Do you think that Kagato will attack us in the future?'

'Only time will tell, Ryoko, only time will tell.'

Ryoko smiled at their new link together. Tenchi smiled too, they can have a conversation without talking! Ryoko closed her eyes in serenity as she let the noises of nature fill her head with peace. Everything happened so quickly, it was pretty hard to believe. But now it was over, she cringed at the thought of Kagato haunting her again. 'My life is perfect now,' Ryoko thought. 'Mine too,' Tenchi replied. Suddenly, a small figure phased in front of them. "Ah!" Ryoko said as she jolted from her quiet little thinking time. "Well, my life is almost perfect," Ryoko mumbled under her breath. "Why hello MOM and how are you today?" Eclipse said, with a hint of anger and sorrow in her voice. "Eclipse, don't call me Mom! Washu bugs me about call her mom," Ryoko said as she sat upright. "Well, anyway, want to come to the lab, my mom is starting to wake up, please? Come with me to visit her?" Eclipse said. "Ok, we'll come with you," Tenchi said with a smile on his face.



Washu's Lab (again)





Everyone anxiously waited for when Eclipse's mother would wake up. Washu said that she saw a little bit of movement on her face. "Ugh, what happened? I feel like I was hit by a truck," Eclipse's mother said as she opened her eyes. "Mother? Mother!" Eclipse said as she threw herself on her mother, crying tears of joy. "Huh? Eclipse?" Eclipse's mother said. She sat upright. "Where am I?" she said again. Her eyes finally came into focus and realized where she was. "Are we in Mom's lab?" Eclipse's mom asked. "Aww! My baby is going to call me Mom in the future!" Washu yelled. "Can it Washu!" Ryoko (present day one) said. Eclipse's mom looked around. "Ahh! There's another me over there!" She said. "Mom, it's ok, where in the past," Eclipse said. "Oh," she replied, "Well, I'm in the mood for some food! When can we eat?" "That's Ryoko for you, always thinking of her stomach," Ayeka said under her breath. "I was about to make some dinner right about now!" Sasami said. Everyone smiled. Then, everyone's stomach grumbled. "Well! I guess Eclipse's mother isn't the only one that wants to eat!" Kiyone laughed. "Ooh! Can I help?" Eclipse asked. "Sure!" Sasami replied.



Dinnertime



"Mmm! Yum! I miss your cooking Sasami!" Eclipse's mother said. Sasami lightly blushed. "Boy, things sure have happened fast," Tenchi said. "And to think it all happened in three days!" Eclipse chimed in. "Eclipse!" Ryoko said. She pounded Eclipse to the ground. Everyone started laughing. "So, when do you have to leave?" Mihoshi asked. "We have to leave as soon as we can, I'm sure everyone is worried half to death for us," Eclipse's dad said. "Aww..." Eclipse said, "I guess you're right dad, I mean, I bet when we were taken, I bet they were screaming their heads off. Probably hyperventilating. But, I don't really want to go back, it was fun here." "Don't worry Eclipse," Tenchi said, "You can come back to us anytime." Eclipse smiled with delight. She put her teacup to her lips. After an awkward period of silence, Eclipse put her cup down. "Sigh, well, I'm finished," Eclipse said. "Then, let's go," Her mother said.



Outside the Misaki Home



A light blue portal opened and future Misaki family stood outside it. As they were saying their final good-byes, Eclipse hugged everyone goodbye. "Thanks guys! I had a great time here! I promise I'll visit again!" She said as she let go. "Please come back soon Eclipse!" Sasami yelled. Eclipse smiled and joined her family near the portal. One by one they entered. Tenchi, Ryoko and finally, Eclipse. After Eclipse entered the portal, she was engulfed by blue light, and with that, the portal was gone. "I'm going to miss her," Sasami said gloomily. "Don't worry kiddo, Eclipse promised she'll come back," Ryoko assured. "I guess you're right," Sasami said.
