Tenchi Muyo: Darkened World

Chapter one: The taking

It is a bright and beautiful day in the Tenchi house hold, Tenchi is walking along the path towards his house when Ryoko appears just above his head and lands on top of him.

"Tenchi!" Yells Ryoko as latches her arms around Tenchi's waist, before giving the man of her dreams him, a kiss on the cheek. Tenchi climbs to his feet and Ryoko smiles as she rests her arms behind her head as the two of them continue on their way to the house. "So Tenchi was school? Is it as boring as it is every other day?" Asked Ryoko as she continued to walk along side him as they came to the front door of his house.

"It was ok Ryoko, just a typical day." Replied Tenchi with a smile as they both enter the house. "I am home everyone." Smiled Tenchi as Tenchi closed the door behind him, before entering the living room with Ryoko right behind him with a big smile on her face.

"Welcome home Tenchi did you have a good day at school?" Smiled Sasami as she poked her head out from the kitchen, Tenchi glances back at Sasami and replies with a happy cheery tone.

"It was pretty average Sasami, a typical day at school how was your day?" Smiled Tenchi as he sat down on the sofa, letting out a short sigh as Ayeka comes down the stairs very cheerfully muttering to herself.

"You know how it goes work, work and more work." Giggled Sasami as she ducked back into the kitchen again, Ryoko just shrugs and sits back down. Tenchi chuckles at Sasami's comment as Ayeka to sits down before switching on the television.

"I take it Mihoshi is still out on patrol, I haven't see her since I have arrived back." Smiled Tenchi as he looked around the living not being able to see Mihoshi right away, Ayeka then replies as she too glances around looking for Mihoshi.

"It would appear my lord Tenchi that Miss Mihoshi has returned from her patrol of the solar system yet, she has been behind on her reports lately so, I am sure her superiors are really mad." Ayeka then sits down on the sofa while in space Mihoshi is on her way home from delivering her report on an area of space just outside of the solar System she patrols, however Mihoshi is curious as to why her superiors made her leave the scene of early. Mihoshi just shrugs it off and continues on her way home.

Back in Tenchi's house however, Washu is in her deep space lab when she picks up a space and time distortion coming from the area Mihoshi had finished patrolling. Washu smiles as she works her magic scanning the distortion and checking all the back data on other similar cases on such distortions.

"What not a single bit of data at all!" Washu scratches her head as she struggles to figure this thing out. "Man this is something that has never been seen before, what the heck is this it blows all the stuff I have learned out the window!" Washu ruffles her hair some more then with a large grin appears on her face. "Oh it appears to be Trans dimensional, umm interesting looks like ill be up all night studying this I better get something to eat." Washu gets out of her chair and exits her lab, just as Mihoshi crashes her ship into the lake again, Tenchi rushes outside and helps Mihoshi out of the lake and wraps a towel around her.

"Geesh Mihoshi you are really going to have to stop doing that, one of these days it will be the death of you." Tenchi shakes his head as Mihoshi and goes off to her room to get dried up and changed. Washu watches as Mihoshi goes up stairs, Washu then stands in the centre of the room and then yells out.

"Ok everyone we are going on a trip to space! I have made a discovery and we are all going to check it out, so everyone get ready lets!" Washu is about to march out the door with Ryo-oh-ki but Ryoko grabs Ryo-oh-ki from her.

"There is no way I am letting you take Ryo-oh-ki to go an discover something you have found Washu, if I know you at all the thing we will be going to explore will get us killed." Ryoko turns around holding Ryo-oh-ki close to her chest and Washu gets a sly grin on her face, Washu jumps in front of Ryoko and gives Ryo-oh-ki the big watery puppy dog eyes before jumping in with the bribe.

"Ok Ryo-oh-ki will you take us for fifteen carrots?" Asked Washu politely while giving her the puppy dog eyes like expression, Ryo-oh-ki ponders for a second before meowing cheerfully jumping out of Ryoko's arms and into Washu's. "Well Ryoko it looks like I win so go and get ready!" Washu pushes Ryoko up the stairs while everyone else quickly runs around the house to get ready.

"So Washu just exactly what will you be showing us when we get there?" Asked Tenchi who is kind of curious but also a little worried about Washu's plan. Washu ponders for a second before grinning at Tenchi.

"It's a secret my lord Tenchi you will just have to wait until we get there so please be patient." Giggled Washu as they continued to talk while walking to where Ryo-oh-ki was waiting for them. "Ok is everyone here?" Washu then takes a quick look around to check to see if the whole gang is there and ready to go.

"Ok Washu lets get this over and done with." Sighed Ryoko as Ryo-oh-ki jumped into the air and transformed into her space ship, Ryoko then signals Ryo-oh-ki to teleport them all aboard and take off when ready. Everyone then gets aboard Ryo-oh-ki and she takes off for the edge of the solar system.

However unknown to even the brilliant mind of Washu and her friends, the item in question is not all it appears, through out the wrap screaming and whimpers can be heard while three powerful god like voices talk about Tenchi and his a friends as they continue to fly to the location of the disturbance to time and space.

"The powers of this dimension are making their way to the entrance of the wrap by some unknown configuration of ship, they shall arrive in the next few hours, and then the world of Dalix Prime will know the immortal powers of Chaos, the warp suddenly erupts into a dark and very cold laugh as they prepare to meet and greet the unsuspected Tenchi group when they arrive.

It has now been three hours since Tenchi and his friends left earth at Washu's discretion they travel through space not knowing what await them, meanwhile Washu has explained to everyone what she wanted to travel to space, but everyone is shocked when Washu tells them that that she knows very little about it.

"Well it would explain why you would want to go to space to look at this… whatever it is, if there is something that's unknown to the universe Washu must solve it." Tenchi lets out a small chuckle as Washu stands there rubbing her head with a big beaming smile on her face as everyone else lets out a large sigh.

"If Washu wanted to solve it why did we have to come along? It is not as of we are interested in this sort of stuff." Yawns Ryoko as Washu hits her on the back of the head with a large paper fan knocking Ryoko to the floor with a thump.

"Now stop disrespecting your mother and keep flying we shall be there shortly." Replied Washu as she turned around and started to stare off into space, Sasami and Ayeka however are chatting amongst themselves while Mihoshi is a sleep on the floor.

"Well Ayeka I am quite excited to go see this thing that Washu wants to show us." Smiled Sasami as she giggled while jumping up on and down on the spot, Ayeka lets out a slight giggle and then replies with a smile.

"Yes it will be interesting, though I do wonder something usual happens when Washu is involved I just hope it is not dangerous." Smiled Ayeka trying not to speak to loudly or Washu might hear her, Sasami starts to giggle and the replies to her sister.

"Yes it usual happens but Tenchi is always there to save us, so don't worry too much Ayeka." Smiled Sasami as Washu sneaks up behind them an whispers into Ayeka's ear.

"Oh don't worry Ayeka; Tenchi will save you if anything bad happens." Ayeka jumps out of her wits as Washu backs off laughing, Ayeka stomps over to Washu however Ayeka is not seeing the funny side.

"Miss Washu there is no call for such behaviour, so please don't do it again." Ayeka folds her arms and walks away, Sasami just shakes her head and Washu just shrugs before looking at Sasami then at Ayeka again before rubbing her head.

"I guess I over did it didn't I? I'll apologise later once you sister cools down a bit." Washu smiles at Sasami, and Sasami nods but then replies with a disappointed tone in her voice.

"Don't worry Washu, now that Tenchi and Ryoko are an official item, Ayeka hasn't been as happy as she used to be, she just needs to get over it." Added Sasami as she watches Ayeka sitting in the corner kind of feeling neglected.

"Is been rough for her, but this was bound to happen sooner or later Sasami." Washu glances over at Ayeka and shakes her head. "We just have to help her get over it that's all." Replied Washu as she patted Sasami on the head before turning her attention back to space again in deep thought.

"How long left until we arrive Ryoko any ideas?" Asked Tenchi as he stood behind her with his hand resting on her shoulder, Ryoko grabs his hand and smiles before replying cheerfully.

"Won't be long now Tenchi, we will be there in fifteen minutes isn't that right Ryo-oh-ki?" Ryoko grins as Ryo-oh-ki meows happily as she continues at top speed to get to the target location. Tenchi looks around to see Ayeka sitting on her own; Tenchi leaves Ryoko and walks over to Ayeka sitting down beside her.

"Are you ok Ayeka you seem to be a bit down, is it because of me?" Asked Tenchi as Ayeka turned to face him, Tenchi frowns when he sees the look on Ayeka's face. Ayeka manages a small smile before replying quieter than usual.

"It is ok lord Tenchi, we are still friends that is good enough for me, and it will be ok just give me some time." Ayeka smiles and Tenchi smiles back, getting to his feet Tenchi then walks back over to Ryoko whom of which stops Ryo-oh-ki as they have now arrived at the area.

"Ok Washu we are here now you do your thing so we can go home." Sighed Ryoko as she sat down as Tenchi stands by her side, as the others crowd around Washu as she begins to start all the scans.

However in the wrap the gods of chaos are chatting amongst themselves, Khorne the god of hate, blood, rage, war and killing. Nurgle the god of decay, despair, destruction and disease. Slaanesh the god of decadence, excess, pleasure and self-indulgence. Finally Tzeentch the god of change, manipulation, scheming and sorcery.

"The Vessels of power have arrived." Bellowed Khorne as his essence gazed out of the warp at Ryo-oh-ki and her passengers the blood gods commanding voice egos around the warp unheard by anyone but the other gods present.

"Yes but it was my power that brought them here, without my help this plan could never have come to be." Added Tzeentch only for Khorne to cut him off coldly and bluntly.

"We don't believe in tricks and sorcery, so do your thing and let us wage war on our enemies with these vessels." Replied Khorne as Tzeentch snorted loudly, The lord of change then chants an old but very powerful incantation.

However Ryo-oh-ki picks up a large energy spike and tries to fly backwards but to no avail, Ryo-oh-ki starts meowing in a state of panic as Ryoko glances around at Washu.

"Damn it Washu what is happening Washu?" Ryoko struggles to control Ryo-oh-ki when Washu yells out in reply.

"We are being pulled in everyone hold on!" Ryo-oh-ki is dragged into the distortion only for the distortion to vanish as if it was never there.

That's it for chapter one I hope you guys enjoyed the start, even if it was boring it will pick up in chapter two see you all then.
