Merea By, Clayton Overstreet In the last episode of the T.V. series Sasami was following Ayeaka back to Earth. But incase you forgot, she had a little stop to make along the way. Sasami turned to Azaka, who was driving the ship. "Azaka, we're gonna take a shortcut through Sargaso." The guardian stared at the princess for a minute then replied, " But...but your highness, nobody goes through Sargaso. I don't even know how we made it out the last time." Sasami just looked at him, "I said Sargaso. I'm picking someone up there." The guardian bowed, "As you command princess." He stood up and set the course for Sargaso. Two days later they arrived. Suddenly the power shut down and the lights went off. Kamidaki turned to Sasami, "What do we do now your highness?" Sasami laughed. "Watch this!" She turned to the mirror hanging on the wall beside her and stuck her face into it. That guardians gasped. Suddenly she called out into the mirror, "Merea! I'm back!" Stepping back from the mirror Sasami smiled as a girl about her age stepped out. Sasami turned to the guardians, who could only see a glowing white figure, "This is my friend Merea." Merea hugged Sasami, "I missed you so much. How did everything go on your world?" Sasami hugged her back, "Tenchi beat that Kagato guy and went home. Now we're going back to Earth too. But Ryoko it... missing." Sasami looked down unhappily. "I know where she is Sasami. Would you like me to help you find her?" Sasami's eyes lit up. "Would you? That would be so great. I think Tenchi is in love with her. He'll be so happy." Merea laughed and hugged her again, "Your my best friend Sasami. I'd do anything for you." Sasami smiled, "Thanks Merea. Hey, once this is over would you like to come live with us? Maybe Washu could help you find out about your lost memories." The ghost looked at her friend amazed, "Realy? I can come with you?" The little pricess nodded. "Thank you Sasami. It's so lonely out here." The two guardians gave eachother an odd look, then sighed. Sasami looked at Merea, "How do we find Ryoko?" Merea answered, "I just have to home in on Ryo-oki. Sasami, can you grab me an extra mirror?" Sasami nodded and ran to her room. Afew minutes later she came out dragging her full length closet mirror behind her, "Will this do?" Merea nodded and picked it up. She stepped into the hall mirror, taking the other one behind her. Sasami waited anxiosly. Suddenly Ryoko fell out of the mirror, followed by Merea and Ryo-oki. "I hope you don't mind Sasami but I had to leave the other one there." Sasami nodded, it's ok Merea, but what's wrong with Ryoko?" Ryo-oki was sniffing Ryoko, who was laying unconsious on the floor. There was a large spot of blood on her side and she was barely breathing. "She's hurt Sasami. Bad." Sasami rubbed Ryoko's head and glanced up at Merea, "Is there anything you can do?" Merea smilled and nodded, "Yes, but i'll need your guardian's help." Sasami turned to Azaka and Kamidaki, "Well, get over here and help." They ran to her side, "What does she wish us to do princess?" Sasami turned back to Merea who said ,"Tell them to take my hands and form a triangle around her." Sasami relayed the message and the guardians did as asked. Suddenly a brilliant blue light surrounded Ryoko's body. The blood on her clothes began to disapear and her breathing became calm. Sasami jumped up and hugged Merea, "Thanks Merea. This means alot to me." The ghost hugged her back and smiled. "Where was she anyway?" Sasami asked. Merea looked at her, "Thats the odd thing. She was just on the other side of the Earth's moon." Sasami's eye's lit up again, "Realy? Can you put her and Ryo-oki back there before my sister show's up on Earth?" Merea thought then nodded again, "Yeah, but why?" Sasami gave her an evil grin, "Ayeaka is going to hate me for this if she ever found out, but I think Ryoko should be the first one to see Tenchi." Merea laughed, "Ok Sasami, I'll do it." The next day they arrived on Earth. Tenchi and the others were waiting for her, having recieved reports from Washu that they were on the way. Sasami got out of the ship and saw Tenchi with his arms around Ryoko. She smiled and looked at Ayeaka, who seemed to be in an alright mood. Kyonei and Mihoshi were there too, and so were Nobiyuki and Yosho. On either side of Ayeaka were the log shaped guardians that had once held the memories of Sasami's own. She stepped out of the ship and after everyone was done hugging her and Ryo-oki had jumped into her arms, Sasami said, "Hey guy's, I brought a fried with me." Sasami tuned to the ship, "Come on out Merea." A small glowing figure about as big as Sasami stepped nervously out of the ship. Washu jumped forward, "Hey thats the etherial life form I was trying to see in Sargaso!" Tenchi looked at Sasami, "So her name is Merea?" Sasami nodded and introduced her to everyone. "Washu, do you think you can help her get her memories back? All she had is this one photograph." Merea handed the little red haired scientist the picture. Washu took it, "I'll see what I can do Sasami." Sasami thanked her hen she took Merea on a tour of the house. Tenchi looked at Ryoko and said, "Well this is interesting. Do you think we can trust her?" Ryoko looked at him and smiled, "You know what Tenchi, something says she's alright." Tenchi smilled and kissed her, "Ok Ryoko, I trust you." The End I just wanted to clear that up. I was watching that episode last night and I didn't think it would be right to just leave the little ghost girl all alone.
