Fire's Glory Kprofsea@aol.com " The Final Disappearance" I do not own these characters, they're too cool for someone like me to have come up with. The only characters I have made up is Kiyone's 'brother' and his accomplices. Again, please don't sue me, this is pure fan fic and I do not own these characters!!!!!! Ok, sorry it took so long for me to finally write this, but i really was lacking inspiration, anyway, enjoy! Thanks to Annie for helping me overcome my writers block! :) WARNING!: If you have not read the other parts of this fanfiction you will have no idea what is going on. You have been warned. Tenchi gasped. " K-Kiyone's brother!" He looked toward the bubble-like thing that Kiyone was in. " That's not true! I don't believe you! Kiyone would have told us if she had a brother! Especially if he was dangerous!" Cuifero Jamaneeka laughed. " She never told you?! That stupid half-wit never told you?!" The green haired man frowned at Cuifero. " Well, are you going to do it, or are you going to stand around all day and laugh?" Cuifero stopped, looked at The Man with Green Hair and smiled. Before Tenchi could even blink, the green haired man was slumped on the ground and Cuifero was putting away a glowing red sword. " Poor fool, Alako was, seemed to think this was a partnership," The man with black hair walked over to Ryoko's container. "So this is, or was rather, the famous space pirate Ryoko, I always imagined her a little...scarier." in his mind, Tenchi could not help think, even at a time like this, Trust me, she can be pretty scary! Then something registered. " Hey! What do you mean was?" Cuifero walked up to Tenchi. " What Yakolta means is that once we drained all her power out of her, she'll be, well, dead." He turned and walked over to Sasami's 'bubble' . " Don't worry, first we must drain little Princess Sasami first. You, even though we managed to take out Tsunami, Sasami has a few powers of her own, perhaps they rubbed off from Tsunami, I neither know nor care where she got them, just as long as she has them." He looked back at Tenchi. " Then you are going to give us the sword. Or else you can say goodbye to everyone." Tenchi stared at him in anger. "Who do you think you are!? Why must you involve the others in this?" Cuifero chuckled. " Each of them is important, isn't that nice? Ryoko, Ayeka, and Sasami's powers, Washuu's genius, your sword, and, well, the others are here in case you don't do as we say. Except for Kiyone, I have a special plan for her, the one who ruined my life!" Yakolta walked over to Cuifero and whispered something in his ear. " Ah, it is time to start. Don't worry, you have at least an hour to decide which is more important-your friends' lives, or the sword." With that he and Yakolta walked away. Just as Tenchi was about to give up hope, or try and think up a plan, he heard Washuu's voice. * Tenchi, can you hear me?* he would have jumped, had he not been constrained. " I hear you" he answered. * Shh! Don't talk out loud! i created an ESP fjaljflasdghads ( Washuu went into a lot of technical talk) and I just happened to have it with me when I disappeared. It's really interesting how they got us to disappear, even if it is a little primitive-* * Washuu! That's not important! And what is this thing?* Washuu gave a mental sigh. * To put it into simple terms it's an ESP walkie-talkie* Before Tenchi could answer, he heard Ayeka's 'voice' . * Tenchi! Are you hurt Tenchi!?* and then Ryoko-* Lay off Princess! Tenchi my darling, they didn't hurt you? If they did I'll* But before she could finish, Sasami's * AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH* Filled their heads. * What's going on?!* asked everyone except Tenchi. He quickly filled them in about Cuiferos's plan. Everyone silent until Tenchi's dad asked, * Kiyone, I didn't know you had a brother.* * I don't.* she replied, * He's not my real brother, we were friends when we were really young and we grew up together. I told him that I wanted to become a Galaxy Policeman and he tried to get me to join his gang instead. He said they were going to create a power that could destroy everything, so they could become rulers of the universe. Of course I didn't believe him, but when he started killing people who had even the slightest bit of power I turned him in.Of course that helped me on my way to becoming a Galaxy Policeman. I didn't think I'd ever have to see him again.* Another of Sasami's cry quickly started them to making a plan. * Okay, I'll use my traveler size transporter and get the sword, but it will be in here with me, not Tenchi, Ryoko you blast yourself out and then blast Tenchi out. Ayeka will have to blast herself out too, so that she can get the others out. Then Ayeka, try to distract them and keep them from continuing. Ryoko will cover you. * Right!* they both answered. Washuu continued, *Once Mihoshi and Kiyone are free, Mihoshi you blast my container with your blaster- wait, better make that Kiyone's job, I'll get the sword to Tenchi while your father and Yosho work on getting Sasami free, you two be careful, I'm not certain but I'm pretty sure that they must have hooked something onto Sasami's container, even if you can't see it, and it may hurt her if you open it up. Ok everyone! Let's go!* * But what about me?!* Mihoshi asked, but no one heard her. Ryoko burst the 'bubble' and Cuifero and Yakolta turned and angerly ran after her. Quickly she aimed and blasted Tenchi free, the restraints going with the container. He fell heavily to the ground. Meanwhile Ayeka had freed herself and everyone else. Quickly she rushed over to distract Cuifero and Yakolta with Ryoko. Ayeka was just throwing one of her laser beams at Yakolta when Cuifero rushed at her from behind with his glowing red sword. Before he could hit her though, Ryoko came at him from the side and knocked him away with a very strong punch. Then Ayeka yelled, " Look out!" and put up her shield just in time to deflect the sword that Cuifero threw back at her. They went over to the huge machine they had been working at and began to destroy it. Tenchi rushed over to Washuu who threw the sword to Tenchi. He raced to Cuifero but Yakolta got to him first and pulled out a dark blue sword. They began fighting fiercly. Nobuyuki and Yosho rushed toward Sasami's container and tried to get it open without much luck. Kiyone rushed to Cuifero and tried to hit him. " What? You're not happy to see me after all these years Kiyone?" " You are not my brother! And I regret ever calling you that, no matter how close we once were!" She replied angerly.She kept firing at him, but it was almost like he was dodging the blasts. Mihoshi was looking around sort of lost, wondering what she should do. So Washuu quickly ran over to her and took her over by one of the exploded containers where they crouched and watched what was happening. Tenchi was dodging Yakolta's blows and trying to strike back at him, doing his best to remember what his grandfather had taught him about sword fighting. He crouched and thenstruck up, but Yakolta turned and hit Tenchi on the back, luckily Tenchi had been expecting this and was able to dodge it. Then he jumped in the air and hit Yakolta on the head. Yakolta slumped to the floor, knocked unconsious. Tenchi was gasping for breath when he heard, " T-Tenchi!" He looked over and saw that Kiyone was standing still, and a few feet away was Cuifero with her blaster aimed at her, he somehow had managed to wrestle it from her. There was a short scream from Mihoshi, who was running towards Kiyone. Before anyone had anytime to do anything, there was a BANG! and Mihoshi slumped to the ground. " Idiot!" shouted Cuifero, but before he could do anything else, he fell on the ground. Everyone gasped and looked as Alako stood up, a strange looking blaster in his hand. " Sorry." he muttered and fell down again. Quickly everyone rushed to Mihoshi's side. " Mihoshi!" Kiyone was crying. But then Mihoshi opened her eyes. " Ouch!" she said. The blast had only scraped her skin a little on her arm. She started bawling at the sight of a few drops of blood. " You idiot." Kiyone whispered, but she was smiling. Everyone was starting to feel relieved, in fact, Ayeka and Ryoko slowly turned to each other. " Er- that is- I just wanted to-to thank you for saving my life Miss Ryoko." Ayeka said timidly. " Yeah,uh, thank you too Ayeka." for a moment they looked at each other, but then- " But Tenchi is still MINE!" They both yelled and turned their backs to each other, only to face each other again and glare at each other. " Hey, wait a minute, where's Sasami?" Washuu asked. They all stopped and looked at Nobuyuki and Yosho. " I am sorry, we could not get her out." Yosho replied. " No Problem!" Ryoko answered and quickly blasted the container holding Sasami to bits. But instead of looking around, Sasami just collapsed onto the ground. "Sasami!" They all cried. First to reack her was Tenchi and Ryoko. " Sasami! What's wrong!?" Tenchi asked, holding Sasami in his arms. Washuu reached them, "Hold on a second." she said. She took out a high-tech looking gadget that had a needle and pricked Sasami with it. " Hey! What did you do that for?" Ayeka demanded as she rushed over and kneeled beside Sasami. " I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with her." They waited in silence as Washuu studied the results. " Well, the good news is that Tsunami's inside of her, otherwise she'd be dead right now. Instead, she's in some sort of coma, we'll have to get her back to the lab." Washuu had them all go through the transporter, and Tenchi, carrying Sasami, followed Washuu to her lab. " Will she be alright?" Washuu grinned. " Just call me 'Dr. Washuu!' " she answered. " Hmm, it's worse then I thought, the going in and out of Sasami by Tsunami really damaged her, it could take months for her to heal." " Please, don't worry." Tenchi and Washuu turned to see Tsunami standing next to them. " Sasami will be fine, I'm healing her as we speak." They nodded, and, sure enough, Sasami was up in a week. It took her awhile to heal, but she was fine. That sure was some adventure we had, Tenchi thought, but I'm sure glad it's over! ****************************************************************************** " Things went exactly according to our plans, didn't they Master?" Yakolta asked Cuifero. Alako was bandaging his wound. " Yes, they did." Cuifero answered, smiling. THE END! Well, I hope you enjoyed it!! That's all folks!
