True Happiness
Washu gathered everyone in the living room. Not knowing how to tell everyone what she wanted to say. She looked as though she wanted to cry as she thought of everyone's reaction to the heart breaking news she was about to tell. 'How will I ever tell them...' she asked herself.
"Mom, are you alright?" asked a concerned Ryoko as she watched her mother try to hold back her tears.
"I'm afraid everything's not ok my little Ryoko."
"What is it Little Washu?" asked Tenchi as he soon began to worry about what Washu was going to say.
"It's..." Washu swallowed back her tears and looked Tenchi straight in the eyes. "It's about your daughter Tenchi. It's about Mayuka."
"Huh," a flash of fear flew across Tenchi's face. "What's wrong with Mayuka?"
"She...She.....Oh God, how am I going to say this." Washu looked at her daughter, sadness filling her heart as she imagined how it would fell to loss her daughter. She continued to look at Ryoko as she once again began to speak. "Mayuka's stability is dropping. Her health failing as the day goes by." Tears began to slowly fill her eyes as she watched her daughter's face fill with sadness. As well as Tenchi's. "I'm sorry to say this Tenchi, but...but I estimate that she could die between tonight and tomorrow morning. Tomorrow night if we're lucky.......I'm so sorry Tenchi! I tried so hard, but for some reason her capabilities in regenerating in the lab anymore have decreased. There is nothing more I can do to help her. Please forgive me....." She trailed off as her tears began to slowly fall one by one.
"No, please not Mayuka..." Tenchi soon broke down in tears. Sobs raking through his body.
"Poor Mayuka. She'll never know what life she could of had," Ayeka said as she also began to cry. She was holding Sasami close as she too was crying.
There was silence between everyone, except for the sobs of everybody crying around the living room. But the silence was soon broken by Ryoko.
"Why?" she asked as she tried her best not to break down in tears as well.
"Why what little Ryoko?" asked Washu.
"Why...why is it that the young are always takin away from people who care about them? Why must they live such short lives when they didn't even ask for themselves to die? They're just innocent little kids. They shouldn't have their lives taken away from them. They should know what it's like to live a life like everyone else...They shouldn't have to die like this.....Especially Mayuka." But she couldn't hold her tears down anymore. She just let them flow down her face, one by one. But she still spoke, determined to get an answer from her mother. "Are you sure there isn't anything that we can do to save her? Anything at all?"
Washu looked at her daughter, her eyes filling with new tears as she listened to the words that Ryoko said. "I don't think there is Ryoko. The only possible way is that she be born like any other natural child. But..."
"Then let me do it." Tenchi, as well as everyone else, looked at Ryoko, shock prominent on their faces.
"But Ryoko, we would have to be able to find out if you are capable to have choldren..."
"I don't care mom! She should be able to live like every other child! She shouldn't have to die. She means so much to everyone, don't you understand that?!? We can't let her die like this. She deserves to live. And if I have to die to make sure that happens, I will. I don't care! As long as she lives..."
Washu was shocked. She couldn't believe that Ryoko would rather die than ever let her die. 'Only person she's ever done that for was Tenchi or Ayeka.' Washu smiled at her daughter. "If you insist, my little Ryoko. But that's only if Tenchi allows you to." Ryoko looked at Tenchi, and began to plead with him to allow her to do this.
"Please Tenchi! I can't have you lose her. I can't have anyone lose her. Please let me do this. I...I don't want her to die. Please...I'll do anything."
Tenchi looked Ryoko in the eyes and could tell she was speaking the truth. He smiled at Ryoko, happiness beginning to fill his heart. He leaned forward and hugged Ryoko. "Thank you Ryoko...I accept your offer." Ryoko was a little shocked, but soon hugged back. "No, thank you Tenchi!" Washu watched her daughter, tears of joy now beginning to form in her eyes. She wanted to run up to Ryoko and hug her, saying how proud she was of her. But she didn't want to ruin the moment for Ryoko. "Ryoko, if you want to do this, you'll have to let go of Tenchi so we can get started."
Ryoko broke away from the hug, a small smile on her face. "Alright, I'm coming mom! Guess I'll be back soon Tenchi. See ya later." She took deep breath a began to walk with Washu towards the lab. And as she passed Ayeka she heard, "Good luck, Miss Ryoko." Ryoko looked at Ayeka and smiled once again. "Thanks Princess." Then she disappeared into the lab, nervous as hell, but determined to see this through without backing out.
"Ryoko?"
"Yea mom?"
"I just wanted to say that I'm proud of you."
"Thanks." Ryoko leaned in to give her mother a hug. Then after a few moment, Washu finally began her procedure.
//2 hrs later//
Washu walked out of the lab, finding everyone was still there.
"So?" asked Tenchi the moment he saw her.
"Well, let's just put it this way, now you guys can call her a mother-to-be."
"Really! They're bother ok then?"
"Of course! Would you expect any less from me?"
"Not at all."
"Little Washu?"
"Yes Miss Ayeka?"
"I was wondering something?"
"And that would be?"
"Do you know if Ryoko is capable to carry children?"
"I don't know. She refused to have me take a test, saying that we might not have been able to have enough time to save Mayuka if we did. So I guess we'll just have to find out as time goes by."
"Where is she?" asked Tenchi.
"She's still sleeping. You can go see her if you like. But don't wake her. She needs her sleep now that she's caring for two."
"Alright. Thanks Washu."
So Tenchi go up and walked inside the lab. He found Ryoko laying on a bed, sleeping peacefully. Tenchi grabbed a seat and sat it near the bed. He grabbed Ryoko's hand and held it in his. He looked down at Ryoko and watched her sleep. "You have no idea how happy I am that you did this Ryoko," he said to her as she slept peacefully. "Thank you so much for everything that you did for me...for Mayuka." He then leaned in and kissed her horehead. Hoping that he hadn't woken her up. He then stood up and began to walk away. And just before he walked out of the lab, he looked back at Ryoko's sleeping form and smiled once again. "Sweet dreams, Ryoko." Then he walked out, not noticing the single tear that slide down Ryoko's cheek.
"How is she?" asked a concerned Mihoshi.
"She's fine. She's sleeping right now."
"That's good!" said a very happy Sasami.
"Yes, it's good to know that they are both ok," agreed Ayeka.
"Well, I suppose I should go back to the lab. I want to be there when Ryoko wakes up."
"Alright Washu, we'll tell you when dinner's ready."
"Alright, thanks Tenchi." So Washu walked back into her lab. Trying her best not to wake Ryoko up as she entered.
A.N. Ok, I think that's all for right now. I'll try and make another chapter soon. Same with the other story. But if I don't, that just means that I went to my aunt's to baby-sit sooner than I thought. But I'll still try. Well, I hope you guys enjoyed this so far. Tell me if I should continue! Review plz!!! Thanx!!!
