Disclaimer: I don't own Sasami or any of the Tenchi characters.

Note from me: I don't know if I should continue writing this. It doesn't seem like people are reading it, because no one's reviewing! If you read this story, please review it so I know I should keep going. ^_^ Hope you enjoy it.

Sasami clung desperately to the tree as more people started gathering at the bottom. "I've really done it now..." she thought miserably. "Now they're gonna think I'm crazy." She started climbing down the tree, glancing down every once in awhile. The security was starting to get nervous as they noticed how unstable she was becoming. She was shaking all over and it was very evident that her broken arm and ankle were making it very difficult to continue down the tree safely.

She stopped on a branch that was still about 15 feet into the air. "This is really starting to hurt." she said nervously as she looked down at her broken ankle. Suddenly, a breeze shook the tree. Sasami lost her balance and plunged out of the tree. She could hear people screaming from below as she fell backwards towards the ground.

Her eyes closed as she saw her life flashing before her eyes. Suddenly, everything went black.

She woke up in the hospital room, and looked up at the ceiling. "Where am I?" she asked quietly to herself. "Back in the hospital." a familiar voice replied. It startled her so much that she would have jumped, if she hadn't been tied down to the bed. She realized that she had fallen out of the tree, and had almost died.

"So. Feel like talking yet?" the officer asked her somewhat sarcastically. "You almost died out there. If I hadn't caught you, you would've." Sasami looked towards where he was sitting, but he was in a different corner than the usual one. This room was obviously a different one.

"I'm sorry I didn't stay in the room..." she said as she glanced at him. "I didn't know what you were going to do to me." She turned her head and stared straight back up at the ceiling. "I was scared..." she trailed off.

The officer walked over to her bed and kneeled down next to it so he could be eye-level with her. Sasami stared into his brown eyes and he looked at her. "We weren't going to do anything to you, except return you to your parents." he said somewhat kindly as he looked at her broken arm.

Suddenly Sasami saw her mom and dad in her head. She started crying again. "They would never think I'd do anything like this..." she said miserably as she turned away from his gaze. "What is your name?" he asked her. Thinking quickly, she said "Tsunami Masaki." He wrote it into his pocket book that he had just pulled out. "Thank you." he said. "Now get some rest. That arm and ankle need to heal..." He turned and walked out of the room, closing the door behind him. Once again, he locked it.

Sasami tried to roll over, but the restraints reminded her that she was still tied down. She groaned and fell asleep staring at the ceiling.

The officer walked out into the corridor of the hotel, and into the security office. He had taken extra precautions with her room this time. It had no window, and there was a camera in the main part of her room. He switched one of the monitors to her room and sighed as he saw her sleeping peacefully in the bed. He wheeled the chair over to one of the computers and logged into the police database. He typed in "missing children" and more than a hundred ad's came up.

Groaning at all the possible matches that came up, he narrowed his search. He typed into the hair color field: blue. Three matches came up. One looked absolutely nothing like Sasami, and the another was halfway across Japan. He looked at the third match. She did look a little like Sasami, but her hair was bright blue, and she looked very happy. Under the age category, it said 15. He looked at the name. Sasami Jurai. "Well, I don't think that's her..." he sighed as he looked at the picture again. He noticed the small green triangles on her forehead. Thinking of the girl in the hospital room, he realized that she had two small circles on her forehead. "This is definitely not her then." he thought gloomily. He had been secretly hoping that he would find a match for her, so she could go home.

Little known to either the entire Tenchi family or even Sasami herself, she had finally made the transition from Sasami to Tsunami. All of these hardships that had been happening to her were just the thing to finally make her change from being more like Sasami to more like Tsunami. The triangles that Sasami used to have had changed to the small circles that belonged to Tsunami. Sasami had been in so much pain from her broken arm and ankle, that when she went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror, she didn't even notice the change. Tsunami's power was now Sasami's.

The officer kept looking for matches on the database for some time. When he glanced up at the monitor for the hundredth time, he noticed that she was awake. She was looking around the room. He switched off the computer and walked quickly back to her room.

He walked back into her room, and sat back down in the corner. She glanced at him, and then looked back up at the ceiling. Sasami suddenly realized that she had been gone from the Masaki house for almost 4 days now. She felt the tears welling back up in her eyes once again, but this time they suddenly stopped. "They never wanted me there anyways, unless it was cooking for them..." she said to herself quietly. "I don't need them now." The officer glanced up as her heard her mumbling something. "Did you say something?" he asked. "No." she replied shortly. "Nothing at all."

Well, I know nothing really happened in this chapter, but it explains some things. I hope you liked it. Even if you didn't, please review and tell me what you thought! Thanks for reading. I hope you liked it! ^_^
