Thank you for the reviews. I like honest reviews. They help me to form a better story. I
will try to get some history in between the girls.
I'd Give My Life For You
By: Moonlit Love
Chapter Two
"Where are we, Ayeka?" Ryoko asked, her hands raised above her head.

Ayeka looked away from the armed men and replied, "I have no clue, but these
look like Cometiers."

"Shut up, will you two?" one of the beings requested.

Ryoko glared at him. "Let's go, Ayeka," she whispered silently.

Ayeka nodded, making the Cometiers believe it was they Ayeka was nodding to.
Then the girls moved one arm down and pressed their teleport button. They were gone
the instant the Cometiers blinked.

"That was close," Ayeka laughed as they reappeared in the high mountains of
Jurai.

The two girls settled down to rest, leaning up against each others back. "This sure
has been a riot as of right now," Ryoko commented, "I wonder what other wacky stuff
will happen to us next."

"I don't know, Ryoko. But I will admit I have had fun. I just don't look forward
to actually having to fight. We have 'fizzled' out of every bad situation as of. I mean
how much more luck can we really get?" Ayeka wondered.

"Oh, come on girl! have more faith than that! We will have so much more fun,
and then when the war is over, you can go back to your Tenchi," Ryoko kidded, socking
Ayeka in the shoulder.

"Oh, all right, Ryoko," Ayeka smiled.

It had gotten quite late at night on Jurai, and now Ayeka and Ryoko were lying
down on the rocky mountain side. "Ayeka," Ryoko began, continuing when Ayeka made
a sound for her to continue, "Why did you end up marrying Tenchi and not me?"

"I don't know, Ryoko. I think you had a boyfriend at the time, though, a Mike.
Wasn't he the space pirate who stalked you for a while too?" Ayeka replied.

"Yeah, I think you're right. Fighting with you all the time got boring, and I went
off one year to do a little space pirating. Then I hooked up with Mike and told you
Tenchi was yours. Maybe that is why I still haven't blown up at you," Ryoko said
thoughtfully.

"Seems weird to be friends and married to Tenchi after all our years of fighting
over him," Ayeka sighed.

"It sure does. Besides, I would think being an obedient empress would get boring.
You fit the role perfectly, but I was always a freer spirit," Ryoko agreed.

"Being emperor's wife is quite challenging," Ayeka nodded, "Sometimes I wish I
had the same freedoms you have."

"My freedoms really are nothing. I run around all day and break rules. Then I get
chased by the Galaxy Police and sentenced to pay some fine or the other. Luckily you
have it so I can't be arrested," Ryoko finished with a laugh.

"Tomorrow what do you say we go find Tenchi and join up with his squadron?
We can sneak into the war supply room and steal some sergeant badges and join his
troops. It would be entertaining and a way to protect Tenchi," Ayeka suggested.

"Sounds like a plan," Ryoko yawned, stretching out to sleep, "'Night, Ayeka."

"Goodnight, Ryoko," Ayeka sighed as she fell asleep.

~~

They awoke the next morning to see the sun star rising above horizon, just
touching the tips of the mountaintop, staining them pink. They both stood and yawned,
ready to take on the day. "Let's go!" Ryoko shouted as they fizzled out and landed in the
war supply room.

Ryoko just stood there, unsure of what to do or where to look for the badges
Ayeka was looking for. Ayeka was soon out of her sight as she moved around the
corners. "So where exactly is this stuff?" Ryoko asked into her communicator.

The communicator was perfectly silent to all other ears, but Ayeka heard it as if
Ryoko was right next to her. "It should be just up ahead. Stay there and keep the door
shut. And please try to be quiet," Ayeka told her.

Ryoko didn't reply to Ayeka, but did as she was told. "I found them!" Ayeka
celebrated into Ryoko's ear.

Ayeka appeared around the corner, holding up several badges and pins. She
handed several over to Ryoko, asking her to sew them on. Ryoko just looked at Ayeka as
if she was crazy. "How do you expect me to put this crap on?" Ryoko hissed.

"Just put it next to your suit and hold it there for a second. Then it is on. You are
Lieutenant Marchall Dylars and I am Captain Lark Bryce," Ayeka informed her.

Ryoko did as she was told. Then Ayeka gave her the name tag and she also stuck
it onto her suit. "Ready?" Ayeka asked.

Ryoko just nodded and gave her a thumbs up sign. They teleported back to the
mountains. They were now on their mission to become a part of Tenchi's team. They
had a long trek ahead of them. But they wouldn't be questioned because Captain Bryce
and Lieutenant Dylars were the lost soldiers of the mountains, no one was sure they were
still alive.

There was a myth surrounding Captain Bryce and Lieutenant Dylars, they came
back in times of war and helped fight. This myth was several years old, and commonly
believed as they showed up at the last fight but two years ago, twenty years after their first
disappearance.

To Be Continued...

Hope you liked this chapter. Next chapter will be much longer because it is the
end of my story. Please read and review, Moonlit.
