Chapter 1 Ryoko lay on the roof, trying not to think about Tenchi, but was losing the battle with her mind. her mind asked. She sighed. If only he knew. If only. Until she found her true love, she would have to keep to herself. “Ryoko! Lunch is ready!” Sasami called up to her. Ryoko smiled. Sasami was the most wonderful little girl. She wanted to have children so badly. She sighed again. What was it like to be a mother? “Ryoko! Common, we’re waiting for you!” Sasami called again. “Coming!” Ryoko replied as she disappeared to the kitchen, a smile still on her face. * * * * * Lunch went well, and it was as tasty as ever. Ayeka and Ryoko kept the fighting to a minimum. The day was turning out better than she thought it would be. Ryoko had gone to look at the lake. It was so calm, so peaceful. . . A large crashing sound seemed to come from the forest. She flew to check out what had happened. She looked down while she was in flight and saw a large GP spaceship that had crashed in the middle of the forest. she pondered. She soared down quietly to look at the ship. Tree were broken and scattered around the spaceship. It was a horrible sight. To her surprise, a young man, probably in his early-twenties stepped off of the ship. He was in a full GP outfit. * * * * * Nikkou thought. Touchi had gotten out of his ruined spaceship and was inspecting the damage. He was furious at himself for not getting enough fuel before he left headquarters. He didn’t notice a cyan haired woman hovering silently over him until she attacked him. He pulled out his ray gun and shot her arm. She hissed in pain and clutched her arm to stop the bleeding. He took the chance to look her over. He was shocked. This was Ryoko! The Ryoko, most wanted criminal and famous space pirate! She looked up. Those golden eyes seemed to slice right through him. In his confusion, she swiped at him with her golden light sword. He dodged, barely getting away. He ran behind a tree, trying to shoot at her from his hiding place. Just then, a young man came running out from somewhere in the forest. “What the-“ he tried to say, before his sentence was cut of by a shot from a ray gun that was heading for Ryoko. She soared in the air and created a ball of golden light to throw at her new enemy, maneuvering the shot he had just fired, but still getting her skirt slightly burnt on the hem. Ryoko thought, Ryoko flipped in the air and threw the ball of light at him, just close enough for him to feel the heat of it, but to far away to really hurt him. Nikkou felt the extreme heat of the ball of light, which hit only feet from his face. “Ryoko, knock it off! You don’t even know who this is!” Tenchi yelled. “That doesn’t matter, he’s from Galaxy Police! That makes him my enemy!” Ryoko persisted. “No Ryoko, it doesn’t.” Tenchi replied coldly. “Don’t go attacking every single person you see! That’s all you seem to do these days!” He scolded. Ryoko hung her head. Ryoko let a single tear fall and then flew off, still clutching her arm. * * * * * After Ryoko was, Tenchi walked over to the Police Officer. “Hey, can I help you?” Tenchi asked. “Umm. . . what was wrong with her?” Points to where Ryoko was standing only moment ago. “Oh, her. She’s been taking some of her anger out on people because I said I don’t love her.” “Wow. . .” Nikkou looked surprised. “She was in love with you?” “Yep. She’s always playing tricks on Ayeka and never considering other people’s feelings though. She’s so annoying. I don’t love her. I hate her at that.” Nikkou took the hint that the topic was closed for discussion. He almost felt bad for Ryoko. Almost. “Do know a place I could stay at? Until I can go back to GP Headquarters that is. . .” “Oh! Why don’t you stay at my place? That’s where Ryoko lives. There’s also Princess Ayeka, Princess Sasami, Washu, Kionei and Mihoshi from the GP.” Totally surprised at the long list of boarders, he felt himself nod. “It’s settled then! Oh, by the way, I’m Tenchi.” Tenchi reached out his hand. “I’m Nikkou, from GP Headquarters.” Touchi shook Tenchi’s hand. Nikkou could feel that this was going to be a good friendship. Well, time to wrap up my first Chapter in my first series, let alone piece of writing. I enjoyed writing this a lot, although it may seem TOTALLY HORRIBLE. . . Also, to all the Ryoko fans, I kinda thought that maybe Ryoko could fall in love with someone else. . . not Tenchi though. Sorry if I made Tenchi sound evil. Oh well. I’m a Ryoko fan also. Disclaimer Things – Well, yes, unfortunately, I don’t own anyone in this story except Nikkou , and please don’t sue me. (I only have $26.54!!) All this stuff belongs to the original creator of the series, such as the characters Ryoko and Tenchi. I don’t put any claim on anyone except Nikkou. I’m not making any money what-so-ever. Got it? P.S. Sorry about Kionei’s name. I have no clue how to spell it. . . L Alice, the author of this story loves to get e-mail (hint, hint!), even if they are flames. The amount of e-mail I get will also determine if I finish this story or not. P.S. If you find anyone named Touchi in this story, that person is supposed to be Nikkou. Sorry about that. 9/15/00
