Chapter 2: no need for another like Tenchi chapter 2

No need for another like Tenchi chapt 2

{Ok then so It's been many years since I decided to update this story and I'm not even sure that I will do much more after this but to anyone who had read it in the past when I first made it I am going over all the chapters and changing a lot of it. Also I have decided I more than likely will have more characters, lines from others series referenced, I disclaim all of them that are referenced and credit them to their creators. If you get the references then that just means you're one of the cool kids who have seen some of the better anime's out there. Most of them are probably going to be just memories of the past or something. }

Ryoko was having mixed emotions at the sight of Yahshua on his back badly beaten and it's all her fault because she couldn't get there in time to protect him. : He's still just a kid and he doesn't have any powers, now if he dies I won't ever be able to forgive myself…he's been so kind to me please hang on for me Yosh Washu ought to be able to heal you…don't worry about what happened I'll get revenge...NO ONE HURTS THE FAMILY OF RYOKO THE NATORIOUS SPACE PIRATE AND GETS A WAY WITH IT YOU WILL PAY:. Ryoko scooped Yahshua into her arms and put him over her shoulders then she started to fly back towards the house while contacting her mother about what happened.

Meanwhile back at the house Sasami was beginning to really worry. "oh I wish they would hurry up and get home the food will get cold, They might even get sick, Tenchi can you go out and look for them" asked the worried little princess. "Oh I wouldn't worry about them Sasami my little Ryoko's a Big girl she can take care of herself" beamed Washu with an off distance look in her eyes. -Washu listen to me get a hospital bed ready now I'll explain later…. I MEAN NOW WASHU- Demanded Ryoko through their mind link.

-uhhhh ok little Ryoko but this better be good I've got some- . -I DON'T GIVE A DAMN WHAT YOUR EXCUSE IS GET ONE OF THOSE BEDS READY NOW PLEASE- screamed Ryoko. -Ok ok ok calm down a bit it'll take a few seconds I'll get everyone to come inside the lab while Im at it- replied Washu. Good thanks Washu.

Washu cleared her throat and everyone looked over. "may I have everyone's attention I need you all to come to my lab something's happened and Ryoko wants me to get a hospital bed ready lets go people" she ordered and opened to closet door to her lab while everyone reluctantly followed her inside Tenchi taking the most time while Mishoshi was the head of the line and rushed past Washu. "ooooo what's this do hmmmm Washu" asked a giddy Mishoshi. Washu sighed and started going into an explanation that she had figured would put Mishoshi to sleep in 10 seconds flat. "And so you see this is- Washu was cut off by the sound of snoring from a napping Mihoshi. :he he he am I a genius or what: thought Washu to herself. "Now what is that Monster woman up to now I bet you she went to a bar and knocked out some stranger and is bringing him here so that she can brush up on her seducing techniques" claimed an angry Ayeka. "Shove it princess I don't have time for this now ok?" replied a now appearing Ryoko with the badly beaten Yahshua over her shoulders. "What did you do to him hmmmm? Did he buy the wrong brand of Sake and you decided to relive some of your anger on him" mocked Ayeka. "Ayeka will you just shut up he's badly hurt and we don't have time for this, I bet if this was Tenchi you would've already had him on the bed so that Washu could check him but since this is someone else who isn't a prince you couldn't care less is that it?" questioned Ryoko glaring at Aykea never blinking. "Girls girls girls enough let's get Washu to make sure he's alright" stated Tenchi calmly despite the worry in his eyes as he witnessed the state his friend was in. Ryoko put Yahshua on the bed and Washu summoned her holo-top typing in some commands. About a minute later a bright green glow surrounded Yahshua and his wounds started to heal the few burn marks faded away leaving him unscratched along with the gash's in his chest. The blood was too much for Sasami so she turned her head around and put her hands over her eyes and it hurt her to see her friend like this. "Well he did get pretty banged up…hmmm? Broken rib, burn marks, two huge slash wound this was no accident". Washu calmly pointed out "Your damn right it wasn't an accident I was looking for him then heard a yell then I started to go faster hoping to get there in time… but as I was almost there I heard him scream not really loud but I heard it then when I got there I saw him on his back like that" Ryoko stated. "well you did your best you got him here so he can heal up so it's not your fault but I'd like to get an answer as to what happened…I know I'll check the security cameras" Washu said with pride trailing off about something the others couldn't quite get it sounded as if I am such a genius. She began typing in her computer again while a large sphere appeared above her holo-top. The sphere was flashing between videos which must have been the security cameras. This went on for about another minute until she stopped and the events that lead into Yahshua's ambush unfolding before their eyes. "Wow can I get some popcorn for this I love action movies" chirped Mishoshi who was now awake and staring at the film with astonishment. "You bubble brain this is to figure out what happened to Yosh and so we can see who did it because I'm in the mood to teach them what happens when they beat up on innocent earthlings". Ryoko said hotly flaring her nostrils. -Ryoko I know how you feel and going out there possible to get yourself killed isn't the best Idea I suggest we figure out who were dealing with ok?- Washu said through the link. "FINE" yelled Ryoko as she stomped off and exited the lab as soon as she was out Washu contacted her again. -Hmmmm? And I was saying to myself Ryoko would love to watch him until he wakes up which would be around tomorrow morning but you left so I guess I'll let Ayeka watch him- Washu Taunted. -The hell you will Washu-replied Ryoko. -Good little Ryoko .- "ok everyone he will be up and atom in about in the morning so you can get on with your lives… unless that is your all volunteering for my experiments" Washu said. That was all it took seeing as everyone bolted out of the lab with the exception of Mihoshi who tripped over her own foot and landed on her face. "Ouch" whined Mishoshi. "Oh Mishoshi so you volunteer huh why thank you" Washu said with a wicked grin on her face. "Let the experiments begin" she exclaimed holding a strange helmet with light bulbs and varies cords leading to one of her many super computers while Mishoshi was trying with all her might to open the door so she can exit. Washu inched closer and then all of a sudden her latest invention went up in flames and Mishoshi managed to get the door open. "OH NO IM MISSING SPACE POLICE MEN" screamed Mihoshi as she bounded out of the room and onto the couch.

The next day about 6:45 in the morning was where the Masaki family lay all sleeping in their beds with the exception of Ryoko who's was Watching Yahshua sleep peacefully.

This peace remained for about another half an hour until both Yahshua and Tenchi Opened their eyes in their separate Rooms. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" was the scream that woke everyone who was sleeping up except Mihoshi who was still snoring away peacefully. "Good morning Yahshua you feeling better hmmmm? if you're not I know something we could do that will ensure you do feel better" Ryoko purred glomping onto Yahshua. "uhhhh umm err I Ryoko" stuttered Yosh. While in the other Room. "Good morning sleep well". "Ryoko how many times do I have to tell you not to come into my room like that besides I thought little Washu said you were Watching Yosh" "oh I am watching him silly he's up to you both really are like twins or something cause you both woke up and screamed at the same time" Ryoko said with glee the smile never leaving her face. Tenchi sighed and thought to himself :What did I do to deserve this. This isn't right I know how Yosh feels about Ryoko and I won't be able to choose one of them without hurting the other I don't think I'll be able to choose I hope Yahshua tells her his feelings before something bad happens: "Ryoko do you think you could go and tell grandpa that Yahshua won't be training today cause of what happened?" asked Tenchi. "Sure Tenchi I'll do it" and with that she faded from existence. Tenchi was left to start getting dressed for the day.

That night at dinner everything was Tense Ryoko and Ayeka kept glaring at each other between bites and tried pinning parts of the conversations on each other until Ayeka had enough. "Ok listen here you demonic whore nobody likes you nobody ever will, the only time someone might like you is after their finished with you but that's only because you did a good job in bed, they'll pay you and leave and you'll just go through the rest of your life being a slut YOU MONSTER WO- "AYEKA THAT'S ENOUGH DAMNIT" everybody at the table turned to look at Yahshua who was glaring at Ayeka. "Ayeka what's the matter with you really do you really have t- "no Yahshua she's right I am a whore, a monster, a slut… a demon she has every right to say these things" Ryoko calmly stated with a face that looked neutral but Yahshua could see the pain that she was covering up with her mask. :Ayeka's gone too far this time I'm going give her something to think about: when he finished that thought Ryoko got up from the table, Thanked Sasami for the meal and disappeared no one else but Yahshua noticed the lone tear that made its way down her cheek. He wanted to wipe it away and comfort her but she disappeared before he could say anymore. Yahshua turned to Ayeka who now looked guilty as she realized what she had said to Ryoko. "Ayeka you've gone too far this time… ever since I got here you've been calling Ryoko names, I'm not talking about the names you guys use for your favorite past time the princess versus the pirate, I'm talking about the names you just used now and frequently use on her, all I've heard her call you is prissy princess or Royal pain or something but you… you use words that really hurt and you're always going around saying "Miss Ryoko where are your manners that is most unbecoming behavior of a lady" and your always talking about anyone yelling but you always turn around and yell at Ryoko" Yahshua pointed out while Ayeka just stood there with her eyes on the floor because she was ashamed of her behavior. Yahshua continued "you are being a hypocrite because you talk about these things but you do it yourself I think that's very unbecoming of a princess of the Juraian royal family don't you agree" Ayeka without moving much just nodded her head. "Looks like someone finally knows what's up" Washu Scoffed with an annoyed look on her face turned slightly look out a window concerned for her daughter. The guilt that covered her face was apparent to him even though he was angry about the events that just transpired. "*sigh* I can't help but feel like the bad guy now…Ayeka days after I got here I hung out with Ryoko on the roof and asked her about her past , she actually talked to me when I thought she wouldn't." Yahshua paused in between his sentences and got up from the table walking over to the now slightly trembling Ayeka. "I know what it's like to have hatred in your heart Ayeka; I also know you realize it's not her fault at all the things that happened to you, your family and friends. But Ayeka hatred only begets more hatred and if you think about it Ryoko saved us all in a way." Yahshua calmly stated slightly scratching his head. "If she wasn't forced to attack Jurai Tenchi wouldn't have been born here, I wouldn't have had him as a friend, Sasami and you wouldn't be here, Neither would Mihoshi or Wa…errr Little Washu for that matter" He recovered at the end of his sentence for an unknown fear that Washu would take her anger out on him despite he was defending her daughter. : I've wasted enough time on this I need to go find her now. : he scolded himself. "That's right Ayeka" Sasami sniffed touched by the speech she just heard. Yahshua decided to wrap things up "and when you think about it were all here able to be friends thanks to all the suffering Ryoko has gone through…Washu to I'm sure some parts were harder on her then others since she was unable to even talk to her when she needed a mothers comfort" Yahshua finished with a smile while patting Ayeka on the head.

"I'm going to go and find her and this isn't my house so I can't force you to do things but I'd appreciate it if you apologized to Ryoko when she gets back ok? … err well I guess tomorrow after she cools off would be better wouldn't it ha ha " he nervously concluded Ayeka finally responded wiping the few tears the whole ordeal has caused her. "yes Mr Yahshua you are very right I have been behaving improperly I should follow my own advice at times I will apologize to Miss Ryoko the instant she gets awakes tomorrow I am terribly sorry" Ayeka pleaded bowing her head this is what Yahshua wanted . : She's been being mean to Ryoko way too much and I'd hated to do this but it has to be done: he thought to himself. "don't apologize to me apologize to Ryoko and Ayeka were all friends here remember you can just call me Yahshua or Yosh whatever floats your boat now I gotta run I got a little carried away." he said while getting his shoes on at the door as he was leaving he looked over and said "and for the record Ayeka…I really hate to say this but…. I think you have just showed everyone in this household what a real MONSTER can be like when consumed by hatred… I'm sorry I don't mean to be mean but…even I was a monster due to hatred in the past sooo…." He turned to look at Tenchi who had not said a word as he figured it might make things worse. "Tenchi if you want to tell them it's…cool" with that he shook his head trying to clear the negative feelings he felt overwhelming him ran out the door. "Oh zing looks like he got you again Ayeka" Mihoshi said before quickly covering her mouth realizing this was not a good time.

20 minutes later…

"She's right I'm everything she says no one will ever love me… nobody could love a monster like me" cried a sobbing Ryoko. The tears ran down her cheeks like a waterfall, it was her waterfall of sorrow. "maybe….maybe I-I-I should just end it…end my pain…get out of Ayeka's way….everyone's way" she choked between sobs "Yahshua I love him just about as much as I do Tenchi if not more…he's been… been nice to me …ever since he met me" she seemed to be getting worse by the minute. : Yes I'm nothing but a monster it's time to end it end it all: she thought as she raised her hand and summoned her energy sword .She was ready to end it the sword in her hand ready. "RYOKO WHERE ARE YOU" she heard him it was Yahshua he was looking for her. : does he care about me no… he couldn't care no one ever will:. Yahshua had checked for Ryoko everywhere the cave, her favorite cherry blossom tree, the field everywhere so he now came to the last spot she could be. Funaho : phew she is here why didn't i check here sooner well at least she's saf-: he saw the energy sword above her head ready to stab herself. She saw him and tears welled up in her eyes and fell down her cheek. She closed her eyes and it seemed that everything went into slow motion as Yahshua dashed and closed the distance between them and when he reached her he pinned her hand against Funaho. "RYOKO WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING" Yahshua screamed at her. "Why do you care no one cares about me I'm just a monster I'm a whore… just leave me alone and let me go die in peace" she sobbed. Instead of letting her go he pulled her into him and embraced her. She struggled in his embrace but eventually calmed down. They stayed like this for what seemed like an eternity. "I don't know why you want to die Ryoko…but if you really want to die …take me with you, You've been alone far too long I won't let you be alone anymore, I'll be here to listen to your pain and help you as best I can" Yosh sincerely said looking into her eyes. "yo-you really mean that you really care about a monster like me?" She asked back. "Ryoko your no demon, no monster either if anything you're an angel… a fallen angel…I want to make sure that angel gets what she deserves, besides I think you just wanted some comfort right now you could have easily just phased away from me but…uhhh ya I'm glad you didn't ." He replied Ryoko then pushed herself to look at him and said "thank you Yahshua… I probably wouldn't be around right now if it weren't for you… lets go back now everyone should be worried about us" she broke out of his embraced and started to go but a few seconds after she did he pulled her back into him. She blushed caught off guard by this. He said "well go but not yet you're good at putting that mask up but I think you should let it out you're already shaking " he said soothingly stroking her damp cyan colored hair. "What do you mean I don't understand" she said innocently looking up at him with a half-smile trying to keep up her façade. "No you do Ryoko I won't tell anyone at the house not even Ryo-ohki just cry Ryoko don't hold it in anymore please trust me I'd rather lie to everyone else and have you feeling better." he begged. She looked at him then nodded then her face fell and she buried her head into his chest and sobbed violently. Yahshua felt her tears; he felt some of her pain even though he knew that he would never understand what she's been through. Ryoko was pondering to herself: Tenchi he's been so nice to me since he freed me from the cave…but Yahshua has been way nicer to me in the little time he's spent here then Tenchi has in like 3 months… I … I love him I wonder if I should tell him…he might just take pity on me I'll wait till tomorrow…or maybe I'll do it the day after that… oh I don't know:. She worried to herself.

After another half an hour she slowly stopped crying and looked up at him and blushed. When he looked into her eyes he knew what he wanted to do. 1. Comfort her when she needed it. 2. Protect her as best as he can…despite being the weakest in the house. 3. Make her happy and 4. Give her the love and affection that's she's dying for. That love will help wash away the blood that's on her hands. The love that will let her rest in peace and the love that will destroy the demon that sleeps in her heart. He looked at her and said "I'm glad you got that all off your chest… I know you probably don't want to deal with anyone at home so ummm…if you want... Ill uh carry you in ...and you can sleep in my room tonight…uhh I'll err sleep on the floor… when I umm carry you in I'll tell them your asleep and err you don't have to if you don't want to. He stuttered. The only reply she gave was wrapping her arms around his neck and quickly bringing her lips to his. :Is she?…: Yahshua asked himself unable to finish that thought as she caught him further off guard by slowly snaking her tongue into his mouth and prodding his. She retracted her tongue seconds after she started pulling away. "I always thought Tenchi would be the one I gave my first kiss to but…If it wasn't for you I wouldn't be able to…so you can have it." She said meekly blushing and then proceeded to burying her face into his shoulder. He took this as a yes to his previous proposal to her and scooped her up into his arms and trotted off back towards the house. "You're actually super light Ryoko and her I was thinking I was getting cocky offering too carry you back to the house but your light as a feather ha ha" no response was given to him as he made his way back. "Oh I guess that cry tired her out I'll just let her sleep" he concluded unbeknownst to him she heard him and just couldn't find the words she wanted to say because she still was unsure of her feelings. :I wonder if I'm just infatuated with him maybe I should talk to…no I don't want to talk to anyone right now *sigh*: Ryoko left it at that and slowly nodded off.

They arrived another 5 minutes later to a worried family. "Oh are you guys hungry I could make you something to eat since you never finished eating" insisted Sasami with Ryo-ohki on her head. "Miya" Ryo-ohki agreed. "well you see Ryoko's asleep and well I can't carry her around forever even though she's not heavy at all… so I'm going to tuck her in my bed for tonight… and just crash on the couch, Ayeka you can apologize tomorrow I guess" he stated. "Yes I will first thing in the morning I promise on my honor" Ayeka said. "well I might as well hit the hay when I tuck her in I ran all over the place too tired to do much of anything now…well goodnight everyone" they all said goodnight and went back to their activities while Washu Followed them upstairs and into Yahshua's Room. "Yahshua" Washu said to him nearly making him jump in the air. "Yes little Washu?" he asked. "I heard everything that you two talked about" Washu calmly said pointing to her head to show what she meant as Yahshua slowly tried tucked Ryoko into his bed that was now snoring softly. "so you heard everyt-" turning to face Washu Yahshua finished turned around and received a slap across the face from Washu and was hugged at the same time by her Adult form , Yahshua tried not to fall over with Ryoko whom was still wrapped around his neck. "yes I heard everything and I am here to thank you for saving her from her own despair, she would be dead right now… and you would to seeing as you wanted to tag along with her, But you should never just go ahead and be so willing to throw away your own life just like that. " she said looking at him in his eyes. "Well she has been alone for too long and I don't want her to be alone" Yosh pointed out. "Are you sure it's not because you love her" Washu pried. "Huh little Washu what are you talking about I-i-I *sigh*? Yes I do…I love her…well I've fallen for her…wait you're not gonna tell her are you?" he asked pleading and embarrassed. "No I won't it's for her to find out and for her to decide if the feelings are to be returned, besides that since you saved her I'll give you this" she exclaimed as she pulled out a card out of her top. "uhh what exactly is this Little Washu" he said slightly embarrassed she pulled it out from there while examining the card. "That my little guinea pig" Washu started with a smug smile, "Is a get out of an experiment free card, it has 7 charges so you can get out of seven experiments free aren't I a genius or what… no I'm not just a genius I'm the greatest scientific genius in the universe" she cackled . "uhh right thanks I guess" he said still nervously examining the card "no problem well goodnight and make sure not to do anything to my little Ryoko while she's asleep or ELSE" with that Washu went out the door closing it behind her. "What does she think I am some kind of pervert? ...oh well" "Actually I am almost curious as to if you're into the male persuasion after you had my daughter in your bed laying there innocently nothing on her delicate tender body and you tried nothing" Washu poked creaking open the door a bit. "Oh come-on you think that I never thought abo…'' he paused mid-sentence as he saw the evil glare Washu was giving him with a smile saying [Finish that sentence I dare you]. "Well I'm not gonna disrespect her like that…she jokes about it sometimes but something tells me she's still a…" he paused again and saw Washu's face had changed once again to something nowhere near as threatening as before. "Very nice recovery Yosh, But don't worry I was only teasing she herself was wondering why you never tried something and you are right my little Ryoko is still ever so pure…the damn thing I'm glad that bastard Kagato never took from her *sigh*." Washu said with a sigh of relief opening the door fully and stepping back into the went to put Ryoko on the bed once again but there was a problem she wouldn't let go of him. Yahshua sighed again he didn't want to force her off him so might as well let her for tonight. He took one hand off of her and struggled to get his pants off. "here let me help you with that handsome" Washu started while smiling reaching behind him and undoing his pants from behind, "Hey and while we're at it want to give me a sample Tenchi still won't budge on that" She finished by summoning an instrument that he did not think he wanted to find out how it worked. :wait did she just say a sample DID SHE MEAN?: Yahshua started to wonder if this was going to play like some crazy scene from an adult entertainment movie. *Slap* "Get those dirty thoughts out of your head" Washu commanded. "Errr how did…" "No I didn't read your mind…but I see there's a certain part of your body that is more honest about that sort of thing right now" she interrupted pointing down he was in a pair of black shorts and his white t-shirt with a visible bulge in his shorts. "Now then off to bed with you Washu said while lifting up the covers and motioning him to the bed, He then went into bed with Ryoko asleep in his arms on top of him letting Washu place the covers overtop the both of them. About twenty minutes later Yahshua was still unable to sleep due to the awkward position Ryoko and him were in, :Oh man I'm gonna be falling asleep during training tomorrow and that means I'll probably be taking quite a beating in the process…at least that'll give me something to sleep about: . Moments later Ryoko started to purr in her sleep which was almost soothing in a way. And this caused Yahshua to slowly drift off into sleep while thinking to himself about how he's with the angel he hoped one day would be his angel until then he would have to enjoy this while it lasted because he didn't know if this would happen again. :Even if there may be something between us there's still Tenchi and I don't think I can compare much to him now that I think about it oh well sleep time…zzzzZZZ:

The next morning was uneventful even when Ayeka apologized to Ryoko she seemed to really swallow her pride in doing so. "Miss Ryoko I must apologize for my behavior lately I am sorry for the things I have said and I must beg for your forgiveness" Ayeka said through gritted teeth. "WOW I must feel really honored with this one the first crowned princess of Jurai begging for my forgiveness I wonder what has gotten into you Ayeka are you feeling alright, Well anyway apologize accepted princess don't worry about it shit happens, I hope this won't discourage you from going up against the mighty space pirate Ryoko will it?" Ryoko mockingly said. Ayeka rolled her eyes and went about eating breakfast. "Well I'm just glad everything's better again , thanks Yahshua" Sasami beamed. "MIYA" agreed Ryo-ohki "Err…I didn't really do anything all that-'' "Nonsense you shut down Ayeka in minutes it's a shame Little Ryoko wasn't around to see it being done all for her sake" Washu exaggerated. –Washu what the hell you talking about?- Ryoko said almost like she was interrogating her. "Yeah that's right Ryoko it was like one of those romance movies or something he he oh my you woulda been so embarrassed" Mihoshi giggled starting to blush. –Well looks like Mihoshi beat me to it Ryoko- Washu replied back after the fact winking across the table. "Uh Gee…look at the time I guess I gotta run for…uh practice right…yeah…I'll catch you all later" Yosh said obviously flustered that the somewhat uneventful meal slowly shifted most of its focus to his actions the previous night. "My my running off rather fast I hope you didn't do anything to my precious daughter while she slept last night did you?" Washu teased clearly relishing his embarrassment. "Hey Yahshua since you were going out anyway want to give me a hand outside here" Nobuyuki asked smiling nervously. "Errr sure lets uhh go then shall we." Yosh mentally sighed relived for the quick escape following Nobuyuki outside. "Sorry there Yosh old boy just thought you needed a paddle out of that there river ha ha I don't really need anything" Nobuyuki laughed while scratching the back of his head. "Thank god for that I was going to die of embarrassment or something there, Well whenever you do need anything just let me know and I'l-" "Well there is one little thing" Nobuyuki interjected cutting him off with a creepy smile. "Umm sure what is it?" Yosh replied half regretting he asked already. "You could just tell me all about how Ryok- yeeouch" Yahshua had smacked him on the head in the middle of his sentence. "You know I wouldn't tell you when I didn't do anything and even if I did do something are you sure it's worth our lives just for you to hear about it?" Yahshua questioned with his hands on his hips one eyebrow slightly cocked up. "Oh heh heh I guess you're right" chuckled Nobuyuki "Oh yeah by the way didn't you need to be going?" "Oh shit you're right catch ya later" with that Yahshua sped off and seconds later slipped off a leaf and tumbled down hill and into Funaho's Lake. :God again with the dip in the lake really honestly todays gonna suck isn't it?:.

Back inside the house the rest of breakfast was just basically eating except for the last 10 minutes which was spent fleeing from the table as Ryoko managed to get Ayeka fumed enough for their favorite past time. This unfortunately resulted in the breakfast area becoming a wasteland again.

2 hours later Yahshua and Ryoko were up at the shrine talking while they were getting set to leave.

"Well the good news is I'm getting better…and the bad news is that means another set of bruises on my body *sigh* part of me wishes he'd go easier on me the part says to stop being a whiny little bitch ha ha, oh well, I'm set to go are you Ryoko?" "Yes I am I guess lets go" they walked together side by side until Ryoko stopped. "About last night…" she started. "yeah sorry its my fault I tried to put you umm in the bed with Washu but you err…wouldn't let go so I decided what the hell and that's why you were on top of …umm me uhh sorry again" he stammered scratching the back of his head nervously. She loved when she had this kind of effect on him and Tenchi. She seductively walked over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. "well you should have woken me up if you couldn't sleep last night I had a game we could play that'll make sure you can't get up for days on end" she purred then waited. She suddenly burst out into laughter at the blood that was pouring out of his nose. :man she's getting good the first time it was one drop then two then it just keeps adding up: he nervously thought. "Well umm I've been meaning to tell you umm.. I was gonna…." She started rather timidly. : Come on Ryoko just tell him he won't care….that's right he won't care… about me… or will he… I just want to get it off my chest now… wait maybe I should do something for him for what he did yesterday: Ryoko decided and proceeded to walk up to Yahshua nervously and grabbed his hand and phased them away. They reappeared in the floating Onsen. :I figure were in the Onsen Ryoko made but I don't recognize this room at all: Yahshua thought to himself while looking at his surroundings. " where are we Ryoko?" Yahshua asked her and received no response. "Uhh-" "This is a private room I made that's inaccessible to the rest…well I guess Washu and Ryo-ohki can get in but no one else…" pausing for a moment focused on something she was looking for. "I call it 'The Sauna hidden in the mists' "Ryoko said proudly before returning to her search. :Where the hell did she put it I know she hid one here: Ryoko suspiciously thought to herself.

"AHA HERE IT IS" Ryoko exclaimed triumphantly while reaching up to a nook in some rocks pulling out a small camera with a crab symbol on it. :Clever Washu but you're not as cunning as someone revered as a demon: Ryoko smiled crushing the camera between her fingertips. –Have fun litte Ryoko- Washu beamed through their mental link. –Stay outta my head damnit- Ryoko snapped back embarrassed that her thoughts were made known to exactly whom she didn't want to. "Oh so this is like a sauna or something I take it" Yosh asked out of curiosity. :Of course it is dumbass way to sound like a dork in front of her.: Yahshua lectured himself which lead to him sighing aloud. "Yes it is I just wanted to thank you for last night you did so much for me and then I find out this morning that you did even more for me by standing up to Ayeka, I-I nearly thought I was dreaming when Ayeka apologized to me" Ryoko said with a sheepish smile. "Well you brought me lunch so it's alright I didn't really do that so that you'd owe me one you know." He replied scratching his head. Ryoko raised her hand and conjured 2 towels out of thin air offering one to him "My god that still seems so cool no matter how many times I see it, Being able to make anything from nothing must be seriously fun" he said in astonishment taking the towel. "So I…wait what's this for" Yosh asked somewhat trying to comprehend what was happening. Ryoko smiled and simply said "Yosh I thought I told you I was gonna thank you for last night Ryoko style" while moving over to him phasing off her clothes and wrapping her towel around herself. "Uh…err…Well ok But are you sure?" Yosh questioned still not sure what to make of the situation himself. Ryoko did not respond but merely took his towel wrapped it around his waist and phased his clothing off having it appear folded on the floor. Afterwards she pushed him to sit down sat behind him placing him between her legs so she could stradle him from behind. "Ryo-" Yosh was silenced by Ryoko placing her finger over his lips and then slipped her hand into his towel. "I have a confession to make I've never done this sort of thing before and I'm not easy either so you're only going to get a sample of my hands I hope that's ok with you" Ryoko purred into his ear removing her finger from his lips deciding she would need both hands for what she planned to do.

10 minutes later

Yahshua sat there still straddled by Ryoko panting rather roughly. Cooing in his ear Ryoko questioned him "so did you enjoy that?" bringing her hands up to her face to inspect the sticky substance collected on them. "I guess its official your not a demon you're a succubus that will drive any man crazy Ryoko" he replied still trying to catch his breath. Ryoko half smiled half blushed half happy that she got that as a compliment and at the same time half embarrassed as to what she was considering. :I wonder what it tastes like I've seen some of the movies Nobuyuki hid away thinking no one would find them but should I even bother when I don't have a sense of taste hmmmm…: Ryoko still debating. "Meh what the hell" she decided and started to lick and suck her hands and fingers clean. –How's it taste little Ryoko? How about saving some for Mom I doubt I'll be able to get that Sample from Tenchi he he- Washu projected through their mind link causing Ryoko to almost choke on her new experience. Much to Washu's surprise she responded. –It tasted a little bitter at first but…it's kind of sweet…TELL ANYONE AND YOUR DEAD ESPEICIALLY TENCHI YOU HEAR ME? - Ryoko threatened at the end her face fully red now. Yosh said nothing but just sat there with his mouth opened as he saw Ryoko slurp down his sample that was previously covering her hands in the reflection of a floating mirror. "What is there something on my face" Ryoko asked timidly still red in the face. "err no it's just that majority of Women don't uhh…enjoy…uhh swallowing after …." He finished meekly while pausing. "Well I'm not like most" Ryoko replied smiling bearing her fangs. "But Ryoko are you sure you were ok with this…I thought you…were into Tenchi…" He said mentally scolding himself, :Should I even be saying that to her? Oh man…: Yosh continued these thoughts which worried him even further when she did not reply. :Oh wait that's right… if I like Tenchi as much as I claimed…how could I did this with him on a whim like that…maybe I am a slut after all: Ryoko was thinking to herself without knowing she left her link with Washu open. –Quite the contrary little Ryoko it just means you're a grown woman with wants and needs and your body is more honest with your feelings then you are- Washu consoled as best she can. –I guess it just means that yes you do have feelings for Tenchi but you clearly have feelings for Yosh there to…just take your time and figure it out dear he's not a bad guy at all is he- Washu continued trying to further prove her case. –Well I guess…so…oh I don't know any more I can't think about this right now- Ryoko finally replied back flustered "We should go back now I'll take us to the shrine" Ryoko said almost to coldly trying to forget everything that just happened in order to leave things alone till she had better time to sort it out. "Yeah mk" Yahshua said awkwardly still kicking himself. :*sigh* Yeah I just blew it great. : Yahshua threw in the towel leaving well enough alone at the same time. They both changed back and again phased out of the Sauna hidden in the mists reappearing back at the shrine steps.

Yahshua found himself unable to let the past 10 minutes go and tried to muster up the courage to fix the situation. :Ok I can't just let this end on a bad note things were going so good.: "Ryoko..." "Hmmm?" she answered looking over her shoulders as she started to float along. "Would you wanna…Uhhh…Errr go out on a dat-"as Yosh was about to finish his sentence Ryoko sensed something, her nose picked up and unfamiliar sent and he ears pick up something approaching then out of seer instinct she reached out and pushed Yahshua back making him fall on his rear. "Ouch Ryoko why'd you do th- "AHHHHH" Ryoko shrieked as a net snared her forcing her to fall over."RYOKO" Yahshua yelled running over to her. "Shoot Saturos we missed them" fumed Menardi who walked out of a patch of trees. "Yes we did Menardi but no matter" Saturos calmly stated emerging behind her. : Oh no these two again I thought they gave up and went home: "what are you two doing here again?" Yahshua said trying to keep the nervousness from his voice. "We are merely here to take the Pirate to her rightful owner and our master." Saturos stated his face void of emotion. "Huh her owner she has no owner…wait you don't mean but how I though Tenchi- "Tenchi what killed Kagato" Menardi hissed. At that point Yahshua saw the look of horror on Ryoko's face and wished he could do something and maybe he could.

"Well no one's taking her anywhere against her will" he said his voice firm and his eyes filled with anger towards Kagato for what he's done to Ryoko in the past. "Yahshua no don't fight them you'll get hurt again please don't fight them…they might kill you" Ryoko pleaded. "Fine if you say so I wont fight them… but I wont let them take you away either" he said with a grin. Yahshua ran over to Ryoko and picked her up. "Yahshua don'- "AHHHHHH" Yahshua screamed as he was electrocuted with volts of electricity forcing him to drop Ryoko who grunted from the impact. "That wasn't too smart boy just give up and walk away with your life" Saturos said his face starting to change from no emotion to disappointment. :I thought he would have fought me but instead he was gonna run away with her in his arms who does he think he's fooling:.

Yahshua got close to Ryoko and bent over to her. "Ryoko can you contact Washu?" he whispered . "no…no I can't this nets neutralizing my powers, please just forget about me I deserve this for what I've done in the past" she said closing her eyes letting a lone tear through. "No Ryoko I won't leave you… I won't go the rest of my life knowing that someone I care about was taken away from us all and I did nothing but try to forget about it," :Wait…what did he just say….I'm someone he cares about: "I'm am a little bit afraid of these two but I won't back down because of that we'll try to think of something until then I'll buy us time" he smiled at her and got up then turned around and grabbed his Bokken. "Well I see you've decided to remember that were here so does that mean you fight?" Saturos said almost jokingly. "your damn right I'll fight but there's a problem ….umm you see I don't hit girls…so I was wondering if it would be ok if just you and me fight…is that ok Saturos?" Yahshua said embarrassed scratching the back of his head that he would request something like that from someone who was about to take the women he loved away. "Very well I guess it would be better if we had a fair fight now wouldn't it?" answered Saturos as he pulled something out of his cloak. It was an energy sword about the same size as Yahshua's Bokken. Saturos tossed the sword to Yahshua's feet and said "here use that it wouldn't be fair if I used my weapon and you had nothing but a piece of wood so let's begin shall we". Saturos then summoned a board energy sword about twice the width of Yahshua's new energy sword. : Oh great he gets the good stuff while I'm stuck with the hand me downs sigh oh well Ryoko's counting on me I can't let her down I won't let that monster Kagato smash her down anymore I will defend her and the rest of the family with my life: "HIIIYAAAA" Yahshua yelled as he charged at Saturos slashing at his left shoulder. :the boy has gotten quicker I'd say he's about two times faster than before I guess he knew we'd be back so he decided to prepare no matter he won't be able to best me: Saturos confidently thought to himself then began his attacks sending Yahshua from Offense to Defence.

: Pretty good Yosh you can do it come-on: Yahshua countered one of Saturos blows trying to strike at his side but Saturos Merely Jumped back. "Impressive but impressive won't cut it" Saturos said almost brimming with confidence. "oh yeah well how about this" Yahshua said as he rushed Saturos going into a combination of hacks, stabs jumps attacks about anything he could think of that would land a hit. "Why are you toying with him Saturos just finish the weakling off" Menardi ordered clearing annoyed she was sitting out the duel. Finally Yahshua Jumped slashed Saturos after he thought he had worn him down but to his surprise Saturos blocked the blow and grunted as the swords clashed. Saturos quickly bent his knees then pushed Yahshua back a few feet which caused him to lose his footing and fall over. Yahshua scrambled to his feet and saw that Saturos had not moved a muscle since he pushed him back. :Well at least he didn't kill me right away: Yahshua thought. Meanwhile a fumed Menardi was pondering to herself. :Who the hell does Saturos think he is making me sit out of this one I said I will kill that boy and I'll be damned if I let Saturos stop me: she wickedly thought as she raised her hand and started gathering energy. Yahshua was too busy looking at Saturos to notice. Ryoko however did notice as she shouted out "Yahshua look out that bitch is up to something I think she is gathering energy for a beam" Yahshua turned to look at Menardi to see the wicked grin on her face and the energy gathering in her hand. :oh shit I gotta get ready to dodge that it will be a piece of cake seeing as how its only one beam right?: Yahshua thought but for some reason turned his head around after hearing a rustle in the bushes behind him. His plans was changed as he saw Ryo-ohki coming out of a patch of flowers behind him. :shit I have to take this shot ill block it with the sword then I'll get Ryo-ohki to get Tenchi and the others: "last time I said the next time we meet I'll kill you and now that time has come Earthling" Menardi hissed as the ball of energy in her hand glowed preparing to fire. "GIVE MY REGARDS TO HELL YOU SON OF A BITCH" Menardi yelled firing the beam. Everyone including Ryoko Watched as the beam flew towards Yahshua and they all saw him raise the energy sword trying to absorb it but instead there was a small explosion that was big enough to send Yahshua flying back smashing into a tree and slumping down. "Pathetic you couldn't even dodge a simple energy beam you truly are the weakest species of them all Earthling" Menardi mocked. "Yahshua are you ok get up please don't die please get up" Ryoko begged as the tears started to pour. Yahshua slowing started to move and said "ouch" then turned around and fumbled around the flowers. After a few seconds he pulled a frightened Ryo-ohki out of a pile of dirt, he brushed the cabbit off and talked to it "Ryo-ohki you ok little guy?" "Miya" the cabbit replied jumping from his hands onto his shoulder nuzzling into his cheek. "good I need a favor quickly Ryo-ohki go get Washu and the other tell them that Kagato is back and his minions are trying to take Ryoko away, ok Ryo-ohki ill buy you sometime but hurry please I'm counting on you.. I seriously can't put up a fight against them." and when Ryo-ohki Miyaed he tossed the cabbit into the air and it transformed into a spaceship which sped off towards the house. "well it seems you were wrong Menardi it wasn't that he couldn't dodge that attack it's that he didn't want to and now that creature is going to get the others this does not bold well" Saturos stated his face calm. "And what is it? My fault? You should have let me help you with him it's clearly your fault" spat Menardi angrily. "Well if you two are done fighting can we continue?" Yahshua mocked. But almost as soon as he finished that sentence a giant portal appeared and out came Washu along with Tenchi, Ayeka, Mihoshi and Sasami. "Well well well looks like reinforcements finally arrived eh Ryoko?" Yahshua said with a smile. A few seconds later his smile faulted as both Saturos and Menardi dashed towards Ryoko picked her up and disappeared. " no no NO RYOKO" Yahshua said as he ran to where they had disappeared. "You did the best you could it wasn't your fault but right now we need to get Ryoko back" Washu said. "Your right little Washu ok let's go right no- "your not going anywhere I'm sorry but it's too dangerous, you'll have to stay here and wait for the rest of us to return" Washu said fumbling around in her uniform. "The hell I will I'm going help you whether you-…you like it or…" Yahshua looked down at his arm just in time to see Washu pull away a needle. "I've sedated you don't worry when you wake up Ryoko will be back safe and sound it's for the best trust me" she pointed out as Yahshua started stumbling around and before he fell asleep he managed to mutter one sentence "Da..mn y..ou Was..hu…." Then fell into a deep sleep as Tenchi caught him and laid him on the ground. "Was that really necessary Little Washu?" Tenchi asked and was about to go further until he saw the look Washu was giving him which clearly read "if you want to live don't continue". Washu then started typing furiously into her computer and a few seconds later another portal opened and a droid that was built like a walking Tank stomped through. The droid was black and red with yellow lining along his chest piece and had glowing red eyes with pretty sharp pointy fingers. The droid came to a stop in front of Washu and said with a clear computerized voice. "Omega reporting, what is your command?" Washu smiled with glee and said "everyone I'd like you to meet Omega my new battle droid he can basically think for himself but he won't go crazy he'll do whatever I tell him and can help us guard the house or guard us". "What are your objectives Little Washu?" "Omega I want you to take this young man here to one of the rejuvenation beds so he can heal, Also he is not to leave until I return got that" Washu asked. "New mission objective guard young man until Little Washu's Return, Not allowed leaving until given clearance by Washu" Omega stated. "good good good ok Omega hop to it" Washu cheered as Omega picked up Yahshua and carried him through the portal. "Ok guys let's get to work on freeing Ryoko from that mad man Kagato" Washu said as she picked up Ryo-ohki and tossed her into the air. The cabbit transformed into a space ship which soon beamed them up and sped off towards space. "MEOOWWW" yelled the cabbit as she left the Atmosphere and towards her captured mistress the infamous Ex-space pirate Ryoko.
