Ayeka awoke to the sound of yelling guards and a cursing kagato. Beside her lay Sassami, Tenchi and a badly bruised Ryoko. Strange she thought Ryoko was not badly hurt when… oh my god we've been kidnapped! Kagato had beaten Ryoko up while she was knocked out. "Coward Ayeka screamed "you couldn't been Ryoko while she was concise so you hit while she in knocked out you slithering coward return us to Jurai at once" Ayeka's desperate attempt only got laughs from the guard and kagato. "Now, now princess Ayeka you are in no position to demand any thing and there for I do not have to tell you Shingo" kagato called to what appeared to be the same man that was fighting Ryoko earlier. " Yes lord" the boy called Shingo bowed and with out another word from kagato to Ryoko's lifeless body and told her to carry Sassami and to wake Tenchi. After she woke Tenchi he told them to follow. (Not like they had a choice right)

They followed him to a strange room not much was in there Tenchi was upset by the way the man held Ryoko and he reputedly asked if he could carry her. The man just replied is she your girlfriend? Or I am capable when he finally put her down he rushed over to see if she was hurt. He and Sassami wrapped her in a blanket then asked "are we hostages Ayeka asked Shingo " well you could call it that but kagato has something else in mind for you all." Ayeka was outraged but tried to stay calm for she was in not predicament to demand" If you would be so kind to say what kagato does have in mind that would be wonderful" Ayeka said with her phoniest smile. " I'm sorry princess but that is not for you to know now why don't you just tend to you wounded commander" he said Ayeka was about to say something else but he was gone.
