Tenchi's house – kitchen
Washu was still at the table even though it was almost 3pm. Sasami was washing the dishes in a sink over flowing with bubbles she was humming the doom song from invader zim to her self as she worked, she had grown a lot in the last two years and she no longer needed the step to reach the sink (ryo-ohki was sleeping on her head). Washu poked her honey soaked pancakes with her fork, staring at it with a blank expression. She suddenly shuddered in an effort to try and hide a whimper, dropping the fork as she placed a hand over her eyes to try and stop her self from breaking down. Sasami stopped scrubbing a cup and looked at her. "What's wrong? You've been poking that thing for hours" she asked impatiently "Nothing I just don't feel well," she told her. Sasami walked over to her wiping her hands on her black shirt. She sat next to her and placed a small hand on Washu's fore head. " oh Washu your burning up!" she stood up and angrily pointed towards the stairs "you go to bed now!" Washu looked at her meekly, and stood up and slowly walked up the stairs. Sasami watched her leave then sighed as she took her plate and dumped it into the sink.
The mall"why are we here?" Excel calmly walked through the front doors of the mega mall, which was crowded with people,"your so stupid, don't you remember? Fuck man damn! kagato would bitch and moan about how this tenchi guy always saves the day right? So were gonna blow the monkey balls out of this place and wait for tenchi (she hyphenated her fingers and made a disgusted face)"she angrily retorted to no one in particular. She walked by a soda dispenser and she placed a hand on the barrier then ghosted through it and pulled out a Pepsi. At that moment she performed a doppelganger and separated into two identical beings the two of them looked exactly alike yet, something about them was completely different some thing about the new girl was different, maybe it was the way she seemed so nice and innocent. The moment happened so fast and so discreetly that nobody seemed to notice. Excel kept walking leaving her twin behind "you can't just steal that" the new girl whined as the she hurriedly walked behind her "sister to catch up. "Damn it Mouse I just did, what the hell are you gonna fucking do about it huh?" Mouse kept walking but didn't say anything. "And besides were gonna blow this place up anyway so shut up" Excel scoffed at her as she handed Mouse the can of soda. She took it in her small-gloved hands and took a small sip. Excel and Mouse made there way to the center of the mall. "Lets start here"
Excel clenched her fist and flexed her arm. There was sizzling sound and her fist spontaneously combusted into a slightly blue flame. She snapped her hand open and the flames turned into an orb of energy she brought her hand towards her opposite shoulder the orb fallowed she looked at a store and powerfully swung her arm towards it releasing the energy bomb. The ball crashed through the glass window, glass shards levitated in the air slowly spinning as they fell into the store but were blown back ass the store exploded sending turrets of black dust and concrete out into the hall. The whole mall broke into chaos. People were screaming left and right running around the stores towards the emergency exits, one man was running around in a small circle his feet going everywhere franticly shaking his hands around his shoulders saying "hamina hamina hamina" over and over again in a very fast way.
Mouse calmly sipped on the can and followed excel as she demolished the mall moving out of the way as people ran by her. There were a few screams of pain as a wall collapsed over some people. Something caught her eye, she turned to look and saw a store that sold glass cubes that's had holographic figures in it. She turned towards it and looked in side the floor was littered with glass shards and three dead bodies. She walked around taking in all the different things. She stopped on a cube that had a mother bear that was sitting down holding her cub in its arms. "ki" she whispered. She glanced at the price tag its was selling at forty five dollars. "Excuse me ma'am?" she called out to no one in particular. There was a whimper from behind the counter. Mouse carefully took the cube and walked over to the counter "can I buy this?" There was teen-age girl in a fetal position in the corner that looked up. She wiped her eyes and stared at Mouse disbelief. Mouse wiggled the cube and the girl got up. She reached under the counter and pulled out a box with black wrappings and a small bow. "cool how much is it?" she asked. The girl shook her head "take it." She shuddered wiping at her eyes. "are you sure?" she asked. The girl nodded, "ok thanks ma'am" she smiled bobbed her head took the box and walked out of the store. Excel shot a beam through a couple people who fell to the floor with a thud. A girl was crying next to a woman that was lying on the floor trying to block her from Excel. She pointed a relaxed finger at the two, and shot a beam, the beam went two feet then made a violent right turn, Kioku suddenly appeared out of nowhere right next to the beam a few inches from the floor his arm pulled far back.
Ki hit the floor with a muted thud and slowly shook his steaming hand as he glared at excel. "yo, wasssup?" she asked as she smiled at him slightly tilting her head to the side. Ki snared "you gotta stop Rain!" he growled at her. She just chuckled and lowered her head, "didn't Ryoko ever tell to respect your superiors?" she shook her head as she told him this. She suddenly jerked her head back as Neko's fist swiped her nearly touching her nose. Ki jumped forward straight at Excel but he went past her catching her by surprise. As she turned to look back he grabbed her by the hips and turned around swinging her with him then releasing her, send her pummeling towards a pillar. The pillar shattered into a cloud of rubble as she smashed through it. She quickly spun and placed a foot on the ground slid a few feet then stop swung her arm at ki and shot an arch of energy then with a swift movement pointed at ki and shot a thin beam that chased after the arch. Ki let him self fall backwards to the floor both shots missing him completely. The arch lazily went some where towards the sky but the shot kept going straight.
A few minutes earlierRyoko sat on a stool in a diner just out side the mall. There was a plate in front of her in her hand she held a giant gargantuan meat ball sub that was partly eaten. She took three huge bites finishing the sub she chewed three times then swallowed then she drank a whole cup of soda in one gulp, she coughed, wiped her mouth, got up and left. The waiter stared at her in disbelief. As soon as she was out the door a man in an unbuttoned suit walked out of the bathroom and sat down right were Ryoko was. He looked down at his plate " what the hell?"
She took a deep breath as she stepped outside into a crowded sidewalk. The diner suddenly exploded sending shards of glass and clouds of dust everywhere cars swerved to get out of the way some of them crashed into each other on car flipped over and skidded down the street and smashed into another car. The wall to the mall caved in smothering it with clouds of dust smoke and debris and several beams shot out of it in rapid succession exploding on the opposite side of the street devastating the whole city block smoke quickly blanketed the street. Two of the beams nearly caught her but she turned to her side just in time.
Ryoko couldn't see anything she turned around and coughed, She grunted unable to handle the thick smoke. As if hearing her thoughts the smoked cleared around her. A pale green beam flashed by then another that was like a laser that went from left to right. Then there was a sound of someone gasping and Neko was thrown through the wall of smoke thirty some feet in the air as if she got kicked in the stomach, huge trails of it followed and swirled around her until it dispersed. She twisted her upper body left then her legs as she started to fall and crashed into the ground, (her left foot touched the ground first then her left. She cushioned the shock by slightly kneeling and sliding her right leg back she placed her fingers gingerly on the ground to keep from losing her balance) landing a perfect fall breaking slide her feet trailed a stream of dirt. She stopped sliding and angrily growled in a way that could easily have been mistaken for a lion as dust swirled around her. She looked up, her eyes eerily flashed white. She gave a small angry yell and launched her self forward and lunged into the smoke again leaving a swirl of dust in her wake." aw shit" Ryoko worriedly sighed as she concentrated her energy into a sword. Just then Kioku let out a pain full cry and was thrown headfirst facing up into the "clearing" he arched his back slightly and brought his arms over his head, his hands touched the floor with effortless ease he pushed him off the ground and into the air slowly spun in the air twice and landed a few feet away and cushioned the land by crouching, but jumped into the air not even a second later which was a good because a thick (thick 3+ foot diameter / thin 1-3 inches) column of energy speared through the earth.
The only noises Ryoko could hear were from the beams and the soft taping of shoes on concrete. Ki blurred past her left making her sway and gasp. Neko jumped from the side right in front of her then jumped forward going back into the cloud without a sound excel blurred past her right. Mouse appeared out of no where and grabbed Ryoko's hand and teleported out of the smoke and into the open air above a small building that has not yet been demolished. " You know-" mouse started softly and mothery like. "You really shouldn't be standing there you could get hurt." Ryoko took a defensive pose and pointed her sword at her. Mouse took a step back and held up her hands "wait, wait please I don't wanna fight I - I don't –" she pleaded softly shaking her head.
"who are you?" Ryoko asked angrily taking a step forward. Mouse took a step back and put her knuckles on her lip a fearful and worried look slowly formed on her face she seemed to shrink a little. "im Mouse (she shook her head )I mean Rain Excel" she couldn't stop staring in fear at the energy sword. Ryoko glared at her and hissed, " why are you destroying everything like its all good?" Mouse flinched " it wasn't me it was Excel my sister, I told her not to but she wouldn't listen." She quickly whimpered. "yeah I bet.!" Ryoko lunged at her and brought her sword down
Mouse gasped and jerked her self to the left. The sword missed her completely, Ryoko swung the sword again but horizontally Mouse hopped into the air, Ryoko missed again "stay still!" Ryoko yelled in extreme agitation as she swung at Mouse over and over again but missing ever time. Mouse looked at her as she dodged her attacks. Ryoko gave an angry sigh and raised her sword over her head and back. Mouse shoved her foot into Ryoko's torso sending her to the ground and causing her sword to burst. Ryoko quickly recovered with a huff. Mouse looked at her with an expression of regret and looked like she was about to cry. "please I don't wanna fight" she said her voice breaking trying her best to hold back tears. Ryoko stood up placing a hand on her stomach she produced another sword and winced in pain, Mouse gasped. Ryoko lunged bringing her sword as far back as possible (her back facing toward the dust cloud so her right hand is pulled back and her left arm is in front of her ). Excel looked up sniffed and turned her head right then up. She frowned and shot a thick beam through the smoke, while she was distracted Kioku belted her cheek. The beam made a straight journey through the smoke then the air then through Ryoko's shoulder. Ryoko winced and groaned as the beam ripped through her left shoulder sending her into a rapid spin she landed hard on her broken shoulder making her scream out in agonizing pain. Mouse gasped and ran to her side. "oh no" she let out as she knelt by the fallen Ryoko. She turned her over so that she on her back making her let out a yell. She reached for her wound but Mouse stopped her "don't touch it!" she ordered. She bit her lower lip and panted worry written all over her face. She looked up and swiveled around towards the clearing smoke "ki!" she screamed at the top of her lungs.
Kioku was locked with Excel he blocked and dodged all her punches but couldn't move fast enough to throw some of his own. He took a step back and bumped into an over turned car he jerked his head left as Excel smashed her hand through the door of the car then jerked right as she punched through with her left. Ki smacked his left palm on the inside of her right elbow then smacked his right palm on the inside of her left making her wince both times. He then simultaneously chopped at the sides of her neck momentarily paralyzing her. Ki jerked his hands back "hyah!" he struck her chest with both his palms dragon style ( "kamehameha" style ) Excel groaned as she was launched into the air. Of in the distance mouse call was heard. With out looking away he stepped away from the car and teleported. Ki landed next to Mouse "yo" Mouse looked at him "she hurt!" she pointed at a squirming Ryoko. "eek, damn that's a huge hole!" he looked at her come on mouse we gotta go now" he knelt beside Ryoko and picked her up bridal style. Mouse stood up with him then simultaneously teleported next to Neko who was sitting on a car just out side the wall of smoke. She looked up at ki and made a little purring noise. "Dude-et we gotta go!" he nodded over his shoulder. Neko pushed her self up and touched his shoulder then looked down at Ryoko then glared in surprise but before she could do anything they teleported away but Mouse stayed behind.
Excel fell from the sky next to her then grabbed Mouse roughly by the shoulders "what the hell? You could've killed him, why the fuck didn't you stop him!" she screamed at her. Mouse cowered in fear trying her best not to cry "I don't like fight!" Excel shoved her with an aggravated sigh "you think he likes you? Is that it? Is that why you wont fight him? Well guess what doesn't I mean look at you what the hell can you offer him?" both Mouse and Excel were petite small butt and a small chest (but unnaturally cute). She folded her arms over her chest, looked away and blushed with insecurity over her looks. She glared at Excel then screamed at her "maybe if you'd stop driving him away hell like us better!" Excel backhanded her. Mouse fell off the car and hit the floor on her back, a moment passed and she slowly rolled over and got on all fours and broke down tears drops splattered on the ground. Excel hopped off the car and slowly walked next to her, she looked down at her as if she were a bug; Mouse turned her head away from her and sobbed. "get up" she said in cold heartless tone. Mouse slowly got to her feet but looked down at the ground sniffling. Excel shook her head "pathetic." She then merged into her becoming one being again. The new being called Rain took to the air and flew away leaving behind a trail of tears.
