going, I'm very busy, and won't be able to update as much as I hope to.
NNFAI - Chapter 4
After helping the two girls fill out their application, the man collected them.
"Just a little advice..." He told them. "Try to learn to speak English better." He winked. Ayeka blushed.
"Sure thing!" She said in english.
"We will." Sari also said in english. Both girls left the store with stars in their eyes.
"Well, let's go!" Ayeka said, still blushing.
"Mmm..." Sari replied as both girls walked, looking for a library. The finally found one, after walking across the city. After they entered the building, they headed straight for the "E"'s, and tried to fund a Japanese - English book. "Here!" Sari took a book out and carried it over to a table. Both of their stomachs growled, and they groaned. "We have to study if we want that job." Sari said.
"And then we can impress the video game guy!" Ayeka said, then slapped her hand over her mout when she realized she'd said it outloud. Sari laughed.
"We don't even know his name." She added. The girls continued to study for hours, ignoring their extreme hunger. Finally, Ayeka had had enough.
"English is too hard to learn on an empty stomach!" She yelled. "If I don't get something to eat, I'm going to die!!!"
"Ssshhh..." The librarian glared at Ayeka, who sweatdropped.
"Ayeka, this is a library." Sari also sweatdropped.
"Please, Sari, we need to find something to eat..." Ayeka whispered. "I only have a few cents left..." Sair took out her change, which was a little over a dollar, counting the pennies. Ayeka pulled out her nicely folded bill she had gotten for change when she had bought her clothes. "How much do we have?
She asked, unfolding her dollar.
"It looks like $2.75..." Sari answered, puttin their money together. "Let's go find some food." They exited the library.

Ryoko was healing at a very fast rate. Her arm was no longer broken, but it would still hurt for a few weeks. The bruises and scratches were almost completely gone, and Tenchi and Washu watched her.
"I'm surprised you even cared enough to bring this to my attention." Washu said, a bit coldly. Tenchi stared at her, shocked.
"I care about Ryoko!" He said. "Just because I don't love her doesn't mean I don't care if she gets hurt..." Washu nodded and walked away.
"You're the one that's hurting her the most." She mumbled Tenchi watched as the scrapes continued to disappear. They had found the reason of her not being able to use her powers. After as much sake as she'd drank, she shouldn't have been able to stand, much less jump up.
A few days had passed, Ryoko was able to walk around now, but had to wear a brace on her arm. Not because her arm was still broken, but just to remind her not to do anything to hurt it, like lifting something heavy. Tenchi still went out everyday, searching different cities of Japan, but never finding Ayeka or Sari.
"He'll get over them in time." Washu had told her daughter. Sasami still cooked the meals, and always kept a smile on her face throughout the day. Mihoshi probably hadn't even noticed the two girls were missing, but she did notice that Tenchi was never around. One day, after leaving a note, the GP officer left to go back to GPHQ, to work in the central office. Ryoko had suspected Sasami would just go back to Jurai, but the little girl stayed, playing with Ryo-ohki any chance she had. Washu hadn't left her lab since the day of the accident, always searching for a way to reverse what she'd done.
Ryoko had little to do now that she couldn't use her arm, she mostly sat in front of the television, watching the samurai channel. Being constantly bored just wasn't working for her, she sometimes thought about returning to space. In order to do that, though, she'd need Ryo-ohki, and that would depress Sasami. So Ryoko had decided to stay on Earth until the whole mess was cleaned up, and then she would decide what to do from there.

A few years had passed, Ayeka and Sari were now supervisors at the game store. The man they had met when they first started there, Rob, was now dating Ayeka. Sari and Ayeka had both gotten English lessons from him ever since their first week on the job. Neither girl could have been happier. Sari had also met a guy, Josh, who was Rob's best friend. Ayeka hadn't forgotten about her family back in Japan, but she enjoyed her new life, and she was pretty sure Sari did also. So, it was a quiet afternoon, and both girls were stocking shelves, while Rob was doing inventory.
"This game looks gay!" Sari laughed, throwing a game with a picture of a brown worm on the front. Ayeka caught it, looked at it, and laughed.
"No kidding." She replied, tossing it back. The could both speak english fluently, and barely spoke Japanese anymore, except when they wanted to talk about something private. Ayeka began breaking up an empty box, after just removing all of it's contents. She tossed the box aside and began opening another one. The bell above the door rang as it was opened by a young man. Tess, the girl at the register, greeted him.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Mason."**
"Hello, Tess." He replied. "Is Sari around?" Tess directed him over against the wall where the two girls were stocking games. He thanked her and walked behind the lavandar haired girl, startling her by resting his arms on her shoulders. She turned quickly, not sure what was going on, but relaxed when she saw who it was.
"Don't scare me like that, Josh!" She playfully punched him on his shoulder. He laughed as he hugged her. Ayeka smiled at the happy couple as she continued to put the games up, and decided to tease them a little.
"Excuse me..." She began, standing up straight, arms folded across her chest as she stared at them. "This is not the time, nor place for this behavior." She said in her snobbiest voice, trying to keep a straight face. Sari looked at her briefly and they burst out laughing, Josh looking at them weirdly.
"Alright, where's Rob?" Josh asked, raising an eyebrow. Rob was how Sari had met Josh.
"He's in the back." Ayeka said, starting on the games again.
"I'll be back." He told them, disappearing through the door to the back room.
"Ayeka to the front, please." Tess's voice was heard over the speakers. During heir little chat with Josh, a customer had come in and was at the register where Tess was standing.
"What's the matter?" Ayeka asked, stepping behind the counter.
"This customer says this game is on sale, but it's not ringing in." She explained.
"I'll check on it." Ayeka said, disappearing from view for a few moments. "We didn't get to take the signs down over there, yet." She said, returning with the sign in her hand. "However, since it was still up, we have to give it to him for the sale price." She typed some numbers into the register and it rang up on sale.
"Thanks!" Tess smiled as Ayeka ripped the sign up and tossed it in the garbage.
"No problem!" Ayeka waved her hand as she glanced at the clock on the wall. "Oh, look!" She said, excitedly. "I get to go home now!"
"Bye Ayeka!" Tess said to her as she walked into the back to het her stuff.
"I'll see you later, Tess!" Ayeka replied. "I'm outta here, Sari! I'll see you later...remember, it's your turn to do the dishes!" Ayeka laughed as she passed the woman.
"I'll remember..." Sari mumbled playfully. Ayeka walked into the back, gathering all of her things, she went to look for Rob to say goodbye.
**Josh's last name is Mason, and if he and Sari ever got married, she'd have his last name. Realizing this, I almost changed Sari's name to Sumi, so that after married, she'd be "Sumi Mason" lol ^_~**
***
The years had passed so quickly for Ryoko, she now helped Sasami cook and clean. They hardly ever saw Washu anymore, except seldomly at meals. Tenchi had given up looking for the two girls just recently, after searching all of Japan four times. Mihoshi hadn't returned, nor had she sent a letter of any kind, which upset Sasami. Ryoko figured she didn't feel like she was part of the family when she left. Either that, or she was too busy with work to communicate. Tenchi was now taking care of the carrot fields, even though Sasami didn't have to cook for an army anymore, Ryo-ohki still enjoyed her carrots.
This afternoon, Ryoko was out for a walk through the woods where she and Tenchi had last walked together. She had chosen to forget that day, she let it stay buried in the back of her mind. She walked along, very bored, through the trees.
"I know!" She snapped her fingers. "I'll go visit Tenchi! He might need help!" She disappeared. Thenchi had been startled by her when she suddenly appeared in front of him. Ryoko laughed. "Oh? Didn't expect me?" She asked.
"You scared the hell out of me!" He said, clutching his chest.
"Haha!" She laughed. "Sorry, I didn't mean to."
"What can I do for you?" He asked, starting to calm down.
"Well, I was wondering if you need any help." She told him.
"I'm all set, thanks."
"Oh..." Ryoko looked down, disappointed. Tenchi stared at her sadly. "Alright, I guess I'll see you later..." She faded away.
"Damn it!" Tenchi shouted. "I'm so confused. I like her, but for some reason, I won't let myself be with her." He sighed. He had almost completely gotten over the other two women, but his mind wouldn't let him be with another. Not yet, anyway.
Ryoko reappeared in the house, only to be scared out of her mind by a screaming Washu.
"I have it!!!!" She held up a small black remote that looked very farmiliar.
"Is that?..." Ryoko's eyes widened.
"Yes! It's the cure! Quick, get Tenchi-sama!" She commanded. Ryoko had disappeared before she had finished her sentence. She reappeared a moment later, holding Tenchi's arm.
"Alright, Ryoko!" He looked at her angrily. "What's going on? You know I have work to do!"
"Stand right there, Tenchi." Washu ordered. "Ryoko, get over here." RYoko quickly teleported over to her mother as Washu pointed the remote at Tenchi. Sasami and Ryo-ohki watched anxiously from the kitchen doorway as Washu pressed the button, causing the room to be consumed in a bright, white light.
I apologize for any spelling errors, I didn't spell check, or even look it over. I hope to get the next chapter out as soon as possible. Thanks for reading!
