CHAPTER TITLE: Reunion
A/N: Sorry for the long wait for this chapter but I've been busy and under a spell of the "writer's block"... we'll here's the rest: ....Oooh! Note: About Azaka and Kamidake being on Ayeka's ship... well, they got there somehow... and about me hurrying with Ryoko and Tenchi... sorry! I tend to do that a lot, but I do want them together! I'll slow it down... for now...

Masaki Residence

A knock was heard on the door leading into the home of our beloved family. Tenchi hurried to open it to welcome the two galaxy police officers back.
"Tenchi!" Mihoshi yelled as she launched herself into Tenchi's arms. "I've missed you so much! I never thought we would see you again..."
As she continued to ramble on, her partner, Kiyone, tried very hard to restrain herself. She looked inside of the house and let her eyes land on Ryoko. She went in to hug both Washu and Ryoko, but pulled Ryoko to a side. "So, you're alive?"
Ryoko nodded, "how'd you know?"
Kiyone let out a small chuckle, "I had my ways. It's good to see you again though."
"Likewise. So I hear that snotty princess is coming back."
"Yep. She'll be here in a couple of days," she turned to the now free Tenchi as he had struggled to free himself from the bubble headed detective. "It's great to hear that you defeated Kagato--"
"Of course he did!" said Ryoko as she flung herself to hug Tenchi. "My Tenchi can beat anyone he wants to!"
Tenchi let out a small laugh, "yeah. So, why did you leave your posts?"
Kiyone sighed, "as fun as that was, we were bored and missed our extended family."
"I missed Sasami's cooking!" Mihoshi chimed.
"And that," Kiyone stated. "I see nothing has changed with you two."
"Well, seems all this reunion talk is over so I'll head back to the lab to continue with my latest experiment," Washu said walking off.

Days later

A part of Tenchi's extended family waited impatiently as Ayeka's ship entered in orbit. Mihoshi happily clingged on her partner's arms and so did Ryoko and Tenchi's.
Minutes later, as Ryu-oh had landed, Ryoko and Ayeka had started a fight as if the time that they were apart had never happened. "Why do you claim that Lord Tenchi is yours? You demon woman! He will never like such a street walker!"
"What in hell are you insinuating?" Ryoko roared.
"That such lowly scum as yourself would never be the perfect match for my Lord Tenchi!"
"Girls!" Tenchi began trying to settle Ryoko and Ayeka down.
"Stay out of it!" they both yelled.
"Alright," said Washu as she stepped between both angered women, "we just got back together and you two are not going to ruin it for the rest of us."
"Why don't we go inside and you guys wait for me to make some food?" Sasami asked with her friend Ryo-ohki on her head.
"That's a great idea, Sasami!" Washu chimed.
"Okay!"

Inside, minutes later
- - - - - - - - -
The family had taken their perspective positions around the table. Tenchi sat at the head of the table having both Ryoko and Ayeka on either side both looking at each other with a great urge to kill one another. Mihoshi, mindlessly babbled on with the only one that would listen to her, Ryo-ohki as she yawned and hugged her stomach as it grumbled. Kiyone and Washu were engaged on a deep conversation about the space academy.
"All done!" Sasami said as she entered the room holding a cake. "I've made cake for desert and the main menu is miso soup and sushi!"

As they group finished, Ryoko excused herself from the table and quickly teleported herself to the roof. She gazed upon the deep blue outskirts of the starry ski. She sighed and began thinking to herself, 'what would you have done without me, Tenchi? I'm so happy to finally be back here. In the one place I can call home with the rest of the group, even with that damn princess,' she chuckled, 'I'll get Tenchi to myself, somehow...'
"Ryoko," a familiar voice came from behind the busty space pirate. "Still your favorite place to hang out, huh?"
Ryoko smiled and turned to face Tenchi, "what's up?"
"You know, I've been meaning to talk to you since you came back."
"What are you talking about? All we've is talked."
Tenchi took a seat besides Ryoko and looked up at the ski, "you know that trip you asked me about in Yagami?"
Ryoko's gaze came upon Tenchi's, "yeah?"
"Why... why don't we... go on it?" Tenchi stuttered.
"What?"
Tenchi placed his left hand on top of Ryoko's right which was resting on the roof. He looked deeply into Ryoko's golden eyes and grasped Ryoko's chin with his free hand. He slowly guided Ryoko's face near his and closed his eyes as they were merely millimeters away from each other.

Inside, Washu's lab

"So, this is the space traveler I was telling you about. With it, you can get to any place in space in just the fraction of a second" Washu told the visiting group to her lab.
"Wow," Kiyone started, "does this really work, Washu?"
"Yep, just make sure to only press the blue buttons on this whole system..."
"Why is this red button here?" Mihoshi asked as she pushed it.
"MIHOSHI, DON'T!!!!!!!" Washu yelled.
BOOM.

A/N: So I'm rushing it again! All for my meaning of a good story... don't worry...
Next time: Will Tenchi tell the group that he has chosen Ryoko as the ruler of his heart? What will Ayeka do when she hears this? What will happen after the big explosion in Washu's lab? Why is Mihoshi so scattered brained? Join me next time as some of these questions will be answered in chapter 3: To be alone
