I don't own Tenchi Muyo or Outlaw star

Chapter four: Heaven's Lightning Sasami!

---The next day/ Ryo-oh-ki Bar---

The camera fades in from black and focuses in on our three favorite pirates and Hilda. "So, what is in this Black Thunder?" asked Hilda, as she looked at the three. "There's about three million each, or if your lucky, more." replied Jules, as he looked around. "Ok, I'm in, but I have to know one thing." said Hilda, as she leaned back in her chair. "What is it, Hilda?" asked Jules. "What kind of trouble are we in for?" asked Hilda, as she looked Jules dead in the eye. "Lightning Fist Masaki and the GP, not a problem at all, but we may have to deal with the Catarl'Catarl." said Jules, in a laid back kind of voice. "The Catarl'Catarl? What did you do to them?" asked Hilda, in a worried voice. "Hey don't worry, I got it all taken care of." said Jules as he got up and started to leave the bar. "Wait up, Jules!" yelled James, as he and Sasami chased after him. "Ha! Only you Jules Nodachi would be carefree about fighting the Catarl'Catarl." said Hilda, as she started after the odd ball crew.

---The Dark Angel---

"Lady Masaki, we just got a confirmed report, the lady Sasami, is with the pirate, Jules, and perfectly unharmed." said a nameless foot soldier, as he reported to Masaki. "Thank you. for informing me." replied Masaki, as she thought of Jules. 'Why did you have to take my daughter, Jules, why?' thought Masaki, to her self as Funaho came up behind her. "Everything will be alright, Masaki, you'll see, but if he so much as hurts one hair on her head." said Funaho, trying to cheer Masaki up. "I'm not worried, I know Jules won't let any harm come to Sasami, but he won't treat her like glass either." said Masaki, as she thought more on the subject that was Jules. 'Is it possibly that you found the Black Thunder?' thought Masaki, in horror. "What's the matter, Masaki?" asked Funaho, when she saw the look on Masaki's face. "Nothing, but I want this ship moving faster! I want Sasami on my arms." said Masaki, as she looked out into the endless void that was space.

---The Moonlight Dragon/ Jinjo sector/ planet Senjon ---

"Hey, what are we doing here?" asked Hilda over the COM-link. "We got to teach Sasami how to use her lightning powers." replied Jules, as he set the Moonlight Dragon down on the Planets surface. "So, how are we going to do that?" asked James, when he heard the plan. "We just need to get her to focus her power into special gloves until she can do it without the gloves, but to tell the truth we're just here to get the gloves." replied Jules, as he opened the door and walked out. This is where Sasami's thoughts were on the problem at hand. 'I hope mommy doesn't get too angry with me.' (On the Dark angel Masaki sneezes.) "So, where are this special glove of lightning?" asked Hilda, when she caught up with the odd three. "There at the temple." said Jules, as he pointed to a temple off in the distance.

---Washu's lab---

"Ok, the ship is ready, so, lets go." said Washu, as her and the Tenchi gang, minus Kiyone and Mihoshi got onto the new ship. "Lady Washu, are you sure this ship will help us find Sasami?" asked Ayeka, as she sat down in one of the seats in the front. "Yes, Lady Ayeka, and what did you call me?" asked Washu, as she snapped her fingers turning Ayeka into a duck. "Little Washu, turn her back." said Tenchi, from a seat beside Washu. "Oh, ok." replied Washu, as she turned Ayeka back. "Well, lets launch!" said Ryoko, as she put her belt on. "Ok!" yelled Washu, as she hit a big button and launched the ship into space.

---Planet Senjon---

"I can't believe that the temple is six miles high." said James, as they reached the top. "Yeah, but it was worth it. There are the gloves." said Jules, as he pointed at them and pushed Sasami forward. The gloves were made of leather and were fingerless with copper wire and a metal plate on the back with the symbol for lightning on it. As Sasami walked up to the gloves, the room started to glow with a blue light and when she took the gloves, the walls shot out lightning that hit Sasami but didn't hurt her. "Sasami, put the gloves on, they are sentient and will protect you from an overload." said Jules, watching the ritual happen. "Ok." replied Sasami, as she put the gloves on and the lightning was absorbed into the gloves that gave off silver sparks. "Now, a new lightning fist has been born." said Jules, looking at Sasami proudly. "Show us what you can do, Sasami." said James, as he and Jules moved out of her way. "Ok, but how?" asked Sasami, then she felt the gloves pulse and a presence entered her mind.

"My lady, just focus on throwing the silver lightning and we will send it out." said the gloves, as they charged up throwing silver sparks everywhere. "Ok, here I go." said Sasami, as she pulled her fist back and the glove started to shoot off lightning. Then she punched forward yelling with the gloves, "Heaven's Lightning!" and a large burst of silver lightning shot of the gloves and then turned into chain lightning striking the ground in multiple places. "Well, I guess your new pirate name is Heaven's Lightning, Sasami." said Jules, as he came out from behind the pillar with James. "That was wicked!" said James, as he got to Sasami. "Well, let's get back to camp. I bet Hilda will be worried." said Jules, as he started down the steps. "Hey, wait up for us, Jules!" yelled James and Sasami, as they chased after him. 'Thank you, gloves.' thought Sasami. "You're welcome my lady, but I do have a name. It's Tenchu." said the gloves, as the group ran down the stairs and back to the ship.

Chapter end: And the moral of today's story is….Insanity is the presence of a mind. Well, Je ne Tenkai of Chaos.
