Ryo-Ohki mewed silently as she lay down in pain on the side of the road. Trying to cross the street, she had been clipped by the front of a car. She lay by the side of the road for at least an hour, when a small jeep pulled over to examine the brownish furry lump. Ryo-Ohki lifted her head slightly and tried to look at the coming woman. She couldn't raise it all the way however, and it fell back to the ground with a small thump and a painful meow.

The lady ran over to Ryo-Ohki and crouched down beside her. She could tell the tiny animal was in pain. "What the heck?" she said silently as she noticed the long rabbit like ears on Ryo-Ohki. The lady nervously ran back to the jeep and removed a shoe box from it. It was filled with crap, and she dumped it quickly out onto the back seat. Ball-point pens, paper and pennies fell onto the seat. She grabbed her sweater from the back and reluctantly put it into the box.

She walked quickly back to Ryo-Ohki and lifted her into the small box. Ryo-Ohki mewed silently as her eyes closed against the comfortable cloth.

Sasami woke up in the room of the hospital. She must have dozed off again. She looked up to where the officer was usually sitting, but did not find him there. He had finally left her room. She sighed with relief as she finally had some time to think. She glanced down at her arm and her ankle, that had been casted in a bright blue to match her hair. She shuddered as she realized that they still hurt.

She glared down at her ankle and arm. Slowly she began to think... "If only I had never broken them, I could leave." She began to feel intense hatred for allowing herself to be caught. Suddenly, a bright blue light filled the room and the video camera went out. All the lights in the ceiling smashed and the t.v. screen and monitors by her bed did also.

Sasami opened her eyes again. "What just happened?" she asked in awe as she looked around the room. It looked like a tornado had hit only her room. In seconds, the hospital security ran into the room. Dumbstruck, they stood there looking around at what had been the room. "What did ... you ... do?" One of them asked her, turning around to look at her.

"I didn't do anything!" She said angrily. "How could I? I'm tied down!" She glared up at the security personnel, thinking quickly. "Maybe there was an electrical surge." The security officers stood stupidly in her room for a few more seconds trying to figure out what to do. As soon as they left the room, Sasami looked down at her arm. It felt different. It didn't hurt anymore! She twitched her leg and she noticed that her ankle was no longer in pain.

"No... It couldn't be." she thought, thinking of her connection with Tsunami. "I didn't think it would actually happen.." Just to test out her theory, she concentrated all her Jurain power on breaking the restraints. The same blue light filled the room again, but this time, it was controlled by Sasami. Instead of breaking, the restraints slipped apart naturally, but without anyone taking them off. "WOW" Sasami said to herself as she thought about all the possibilities of her new power.

She once again concentrated her power, but this time, it was to get the casts off. A blue light once again filled the room, and somehow the casts had slipped entirely off her arm and leg. She sat up in the bed for the first time in awhile. At first, the head rush almost made her lay back down in the bed, but it passed quickly. She reached down and felt her ankle. It didn't hurt at all, and it looked exactly the same as it had when it was better. The same thing was true for her wrist.

She swung her legs out of the bed and started walking to the bathroom, not wincing or limping at all. She walked into the bathroom and looked at the mirror. She looked closely this time, and noticed that her triangles had been replaced by two small circles. She cried out in awe as she lifted her hand up and touched the circles. They were real. She quickly used the bathroom, and locked the door. She took off her filmy hospital gown and took a quick shower, making sure to clean out her hair. She had only been in the bathroom for five minutes, but there were already people pounding on the door outside.

After drying off, she quickly pulled the gown back on and walked to the back of the bathroom. "Let's hope my power is even greater than the original Tsunami." she said silently. She concentrated all her energy on teleporting out of the bathroom. She closed her eyes and ended up in the linen closet down the hall of her room. "Whoops..." she said. "Not where I was trying to go."

After several more tries, she finally made it to the storage closet. It had all the clothes of the patients labeled in bins on the shelves on the walls. It took some time to find hers, because she forgot to look for Tsunami Masaki instead of Sasami Jurai. Eventually, she found hers and pulled it off the wall. They had washed her kimono for her! "Aww... How nice..." she thought sarcastically as she pulled it back on. It still felt dirty to her. She stole a brush from one of the other bins and brushed out her still wet hair. It fell almost to her knees. She grabbed another one of the bins and managed to find two small red hair ties. They were small, but they would work. Sasami quickly braided her hair into two pieces and tied them up into buns on the top of her head. "Not bad." She thought as she imagined what she looked like.

She tightened her sash around her small waist, and adjusted her hair. Now everything was perfect. She once again concentrated her power and she teleported into the bushes outside the hospital on the first floor. She was finally free.

Ok. That's the end of the chapter. I'll try to write some more later. I know that it's unlikely that Sasami would ever have MORE power than Tsunami, but seeing as she is merged with Tsunami and is also a descendant of a very powerful Jurian family, .... yeah. Just go along with it. ^_^ I hoped you liked the chapter and will review my story! -RyoOhki020
