CH 5

After about an hour, Sasami went up stairs to wake Ryoko up.

"Ryoko, breakfast is ready!" called the blue haired cook.

She knew she had to go down. Besides, she wanted to see Tenchi. Maybe seeing him would lift her spirits.

"Alright, Sasami, I'll be right out."

She threw on her blue-yellow robe and made her way down stairs.

"Where's Tenchi?" questioned Ryoko.

"Oh, he's out in the field with Ryo-Oh-Ki." replied Sasami.

"Damn…"

"Oh, Ryoko?" Washu called. "Could you come here for a moment?"

Ryoko instantly remembered her dream. "C-Coming." She teleported to the door to the lab and phased through. She followed Washu to the boy. Filled with worry, she walked almost as clumsily as Mihoshi. When they got to the boy, Ryoko grew full of relief and joy. He seemed to be stirring.

"Washu, is he coming to?" Ryoko interrogated.

"Just watch. I want to see something." Washu had him hooked up to some machine, but Ryoko didn't care.

Just then he opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was the woman with sky blue hair and topaz eyes. His heart jumped. The last thing he remembered was falling to the ground and seeing her. Had she saved him? What happened? Where was he? His heart was racing.

"Calm down, young one. We'll explain everything in a moment." stated Washu soothingly.

Next to the woman was a big haried, red headed child. She seemed to notice something about him.

Just then he noticed that he had been hooked up to some sort of machine. He wanted to say something, but he was so confused. He had absolutely no idea what was going on.

"You're okay now, darling. Ryoko here brought you over after you collapsed. Ryoko, go grab a bite while I explain everything."

"Alright." Ryoko was so relieved that the boy was alright that she couldn't even argue.
