No Need for Broken Hearts Chapter 2 - The Crazy Princess Where we last left off Ayeka was walking into Ryoko's room with a sharp knife. *Ah, there Ryoko is. Time to kill that demon.* Ayeka thought coldly, walking over to Ryoko's bed with the knife. Ayeka stabbed the pillow and covers quickly and silently, without looking to see the blood. *Killed her.* Ayeka thought walking back out. Ayeka was walking back to her room when she ran into Washu. She looked panicked. "Ayeka, have you seen Ryoko???" Ayeka shifted nervously "No, Miss Washu. Why do you ask?" "Well, Ryoko is missing," Washu responded still nervous. "She is?" Ayeka said angrily, although she hid most of it. "Yes Ayeka. I've gotta go find her,bye!" Washu said quickly and ran off. *Just when I thought I'd killed her. SHE'S GONE!!!!!!* Ayeka yelled in her mind Ayeka went back to bed hoping Ryoko wouldn't come back. :That night Ryoko's cave: Ryoko was out at the cave for some of the night thinking about Tenchi and the events of the day before. Did Tenchi like her? What would they do about the other girls? What would Washu think? What would Noboyuki do? Nevermind that thought. Eeek what a bad thought. He'd probably be outside Tenchi's window recording anything that went on in his room. That hentai. Maybe the date would tell for sure. What would Ryoko do if Tenchi didn't like her? Run away and never come back, probably. But that moment last night would live on in her heart forever. After all this thinking she decided to simply walk back to the house. On her way back she ran into Washu. Washu was very worried about her. "Ryoko, where have you been?" "At the cave, Washu, why?" "I was worried about you Ryoko." "Worried about me?" "Yes Ryoko, although you may not like to think so, I am your mother." "Let's get back to the house, Ryoko" "OK, Washu." "Ryoko?" "Yes?" "Could you PLEASE call me MOM?" Ryoko face-faulted and fell over. They got back to the house and both went back to bed. :Masaki home next morning: Tenchi got up earlier than usual. He put on his normal clothes and went outside for some fresh air and to think.Sasami woke up about 10 minutes ago.He walked by the kitchen and said hi to Sasami as he went outside. Tenchi sat down by the lake to think. I really like Ryoko, but I like everyone else too. I need some way to figure all this out. Maybe taking everybody out on one date could tell who I like. That could end up too messy in the end. But, it was the only way. Breakfast would be ready soon. He would announce this idea then. The girls wanted him to decide and he would. Hopefuully this idea would work. He got up and walked back to the house. Breakfast was still not ready. He went up to his room and wrote down the names of the girls on a paper. He cut the pieces out and put them in a small box in his room. Someone was walking to his room. Sasami knocked, "Breakfast is ready, Tenchi." "Thanks Sasami!" Tenchi yelled back. He grabbed the box and went downstairs. He was first at the table. Ayeka, Mihoshi, Washu, Kiyone, Ryoko, Noboyuki, and Katsuhito came to the table also. After breakfast Tenchi made his announcement. "Could I have everyone's attenion?" Tenchi stood up saying holding up his box. Everyone's thoughts at the time: *What could this be? Is he gonna ask me to marry him* Ryoko *What is my boy doing? Has he chosen? Oh my dear wife up in heaven he has chosen!!* Noboyuki *Hmm.. I guess Tenchi has chosen. I hope this doesn't interfere with his training.* Katsuhito *He's gonna ask Ryoko to marry him. Oh Boy.* Ayeka *Has Tenchi decided? Hopefully my sister.* Sasami *I want more to eat. Oh what's that box in his hand?* Mihoshi *Has he chosen? If he chooses me I might finally get away from Mihoshi and be with him.* Kiyone *Hmmm... Tenchi's too indecisive to be asking someone to marry him. Perhaps it is some sort of smoke bomb for a quick escape. I know the perfect gases for a very cloudy smoke.* Washu "I know all of you have been waiting for me to choose. So I have devised a way to figure out exactly who I like," Tenchi announced, "In this box I have the names of each girl on slips of paper. I will draw names, and since today is Monday starting tommorrow, and for every night following, I will go out with one of you depending on the order of the drawing." Everyone was stunned by this announcement, but Noboyuki had read this before in one of his "secret books." After everyone recovered from the shock Katsuhito and Noboyuki drew names. The order: Tuesday: Ayeka Wednesday: Sasami Thursday: Mihoshi Friday: Kiyone Saturday: Washu Sunday: Ryoko After all was said and done, Washu decided not to participate. Mihoshi did not know what was going on anyway so she didn't participate either. Tenchi readjusted the schedule, so that all the girl's had preparation time. It instead ran: Thursday: Ayeka Friday: Sasami Saturday: Kiyone Sunday: Ryoko Ryoko ran off to start preparing. As did Kiyone and Ayeka. Ayeka was thrilled she was getting a second chance. Kiyone was amazed Tenchi even considered her. Sasami prepared a spot and a decided what kind of food to make for the "date." Sasami did not want Tenchi or anyone else to take this "date" seriously. She just wanted to eat and talk alone with Tenchi. Ryoko decided to go to the one person who could greatly increase her chances of winning Tenchi, Washu. :Washu's Lab that morning: ^knock, knock^ "Yes,come in," Washu said. "Um, mom could you help me?" Ryoko asked "You called me mom???" Washu gasped surprisingly "What do you want?" Washu's mood changed from surprise to suspicion "Why are you so suspicious, mom?" "Because you only call me mom when you want something." "Well I need some... help." "What do you need help with 'Little Ryoko'" "Well I need to know what Tenchi likes doing and where to take him." "Well I guess 'this' could help." Washu made another holo-screen appear. It showed all the data Washu had collected on Tenchi. It also showed that the cast had mind-reading powers. "I saw your brain waves when you two were on the roof, so I decided to place a mind-reading device in the cast. I have been recording the readings of his mind. He likes you already Ryoko, but he still isn't sure about who he likes most. I, however, am not one of his favorites, so I decided to stay out and help you 'Little Ryoko'. I knew you would come and ask for my help. I have a camera following him right now." "You knew I would come?" Ryoko asked dumbfounded "Yes Ryoko, I knew you would come." "Well can you help?" "Yes I can. Let's get to work." :Meanwhile on the Yagami: Kiyone was preparing a nice cruise through space and a nice dinner in the best restaurant in the solar system on Europa. She had the reservation, she got the best table in the joint. She was friends with the owner of the restaurant. She found the perfect black spaghetti strap dress It was almost completely set up. She needed to get rid of Mihoshi. She considered many options, until she was going through a Universal TV Guide Space Police Policeman Special Edition. There was a Space Police Policeman marathon on Universal Cartoon Network. Kiyone told her about this and bought her plenty of snacks. Mihoshi would be in her room all that night. Kiyone was all set. :The Forest: Ayeka was walking through the forest, looking for that perfect spot. After about an hour of walking she found the spot. It was on a hill overlooking the lake. The sun hit it at exactly the right spot. She would set up a walk through the forest and make it to this hill where they would talk and eat. She would wear her prettiest Jurain kimono. :Kitchen: Sasami would knew exactly what to cook. She would wear her normal clothes. She would go to Ryu-Oh, eat the lunch with Tenchi, and just have a nice day with Tenchi. :The Training Grounds: Earlier Tenchi got the cast off, but Washu strangely asked to see his sword. While all the girls were preparing for their dates, Tenchi had to train with Katsuhito. Tenchi went to grab his boken from his room. He had a strange feeling that something was watching him. He walked outside and up the shrine steps. :The Shrine: "Hmmm... Yes interesting Miss Washu. I'll try it." Katsuhito said to Washu Tenchi walked to the shrine. He knew that his grandfather would try a surprise attack. Tenchi looked around to try and find his grandfather. Right then his grandfather jumped from behind him, pinned him to the ground, and held his boken's blade edge to Tenchi's neck. "Well Tenchi, I trapped you again." Katsuhito said smoothly. "Yeah, like always." Tenchi managed to mumble out. Katsuhito got off of Tenchi and they started to fight. Tenchi was losing pitifully to Katsuhito. Katsuhito mentioned some of the girl's names and figures during the fight. On some of the descriptions Tenchi fought harder, but on others he didn't fight as well. A few names had him distracted. After their training Tenchi went back to his house. "Thank you Katsuhito, this information will do wonderfully." :That night: All the girls started preparations on their dates. Tenchi was getting ready also. He was going to have a BIG week ahead of him. This is Chapter 2 of my series No Need for Broken Hearts. It went differently than originally planned, but it is still acceptable to me. I am still new to fanfics so please send ANY questions, comments, or ideas to blackphoenix27@hotmail.com
