I don't own the Tenchi character. I don't make any money off of them. As a matter of fact I loose hours out of my life writting these. Incase you aren't caught up with the story so far, Ayeaka snapped, lost her powers, and is now the new supervillain. Ryoko married Tenchi. Nobiyuki married Washu, Tsunami merged with Sasami and married Yosho, and Kyonei (don't worry, it's still the universe where Ryoko was in the cave) married Mihoshi. Ryoko's baby (The third in the 'Ayeaka's Mistake Trilogy' By, Clayton Overstreet Ryoko moaned in pain as her hands left imprints in the metal railing of her bed. She had been through worse, but it still hurt to give birth. Gritting her teeth she gave a push. Suddenly the pain stopped and she heard Washu say, "It's a girl!" Tenchi grinned and kissed Ryoko's forehead, "I'm so proud of you..." He was cut off as Ryoko screamed and began to contract again. Washu set the other baby in it's blanket into the incubator and looked back at Ryoko, "It seems we aren't quite done yet." Ryoko glared down at her, "What do you mean? I had the kid AAAAAH!" Washu smiled, "Yeah, but it seems you are having twins." Tenchi's jaw dropped and Ryoko gave a final push. The sencond baby landed in Washu's arms. Tenchi squeesed Ryoko's shoulder and started to say something when Ryoko turned to him, "You say one word about knowing how I feel and I'll make sure Washu arranges it so YOU carry the next one!" Tenchi gulped and smiled nervously. Washu finished cleaning off the babies and handed them to Ryoko and Tenchi. Both looked exacty like their mother down to the tail, except one had black spiky hair and the other blue. "What are you two going to name your new daughters?" Tenchi looked at Ryoko who looked back. They smiled and nodded. Tenchi held the one in his arms out, "I think I'll name her Tenko." Ryoko smiled down at the child in her arms, "In that case, her name is Ryochi." Everyone gathered around and looked down at the babies, who had fallen asleep in their parent's arms. Nobiyuki hugged Tenchi tight, "You finaly made me a grandfather!" Washu smiled and shook her head, "Any of you call me 'grandma' and I'll turn you into mice and feed you to a cat." Tsusami, Kyonei, and Mihoshi all gathered around an admied the little bundles. Ryoko smiled at Tenchi, "Could you take Ryochi? I think I need some sleep." Tenchi picked up his other daughter in his free arm and Ryoko fell asleep almost immediately. Finaly Washu took the twins and set them in their incubators. Next she hearded everyone out of the lab so She could make sure everything was alright. "Just some standard scans Tenchi, nothing life threatening." Tenchi and the others smiled at her trustingly and left. On the way out Tenchi stopped by Ryoko's bed and kissed her forhead. "I love you Ryoko," he said. Then he was gone. Three months later Ryoko was sitting with her babies at 2:00 in the morning. They had woken up and began crying. In her head she could hear them like she did with Washu and Ryo-oki. It was alright though because, as always, she had been awake and watching Tenchi sleep. Smiline down she picked up her babies. They had their mother's strength in addition to her looks, as evidenced by the bruises on Nobiyuki's fingers. She smiled down at them and began to sing softly. The worlds were completely alien, but the melody was haunting. Soon the Tenko, then Ryochi nodded off again and Ryoko put them down. "That was beutiful Ryoko." She turned and saw Tenchi standing in the doorway. "How did you know I was up?" Tenchi smiled and hugged her, "I can hear them too Ryoko." Ryoko blushed and hugged him close, "Well thanks Tenchi, but I have everything under control." Tenchi smiled and nodded, "I see that. But don't you think it's time you got some sleep too?" Ryoko looked up at him, "But what if the babies need me, or you?" Tenchi kissed her cheek, "The others will help out with the babies, and if I need you, believe me I'll tell you." She grinned playfully and rubbed against him, then yawned. "Ok, so I'm not as frisky as usual. I guess I do need some sleep." Tenchi helped her into bed and Ryoko slowly drifted off. She woke up at noon the next day. When she saw what time it was Ryoko bolted out of her bed and headed straight for the baby's room. They were gone. Ryoko looked around franticaly and heard a small laugh from the livingroom. When she got there she saw Mihoshi and Kyonei playing with a baby each. Ryoko looked around, "Where's Tenchi?" Kyonei looked up smiling, "He went out to the carrot garden and asked us to babysit." Ryoko sighed relieved and sat down between them. Mihoshi look up at her and asked, "Hey Ryoko, how do you like being a parent?" Ryoko grinned, "It's the most wonderful feeling in the world." That night Ryoko and Tenchi were putting the babies to bed when they heard a loud rumbling sound from outside. They ran to the window and looked outside. Just before they reached the window a bright beam of light hit them and everything went black. Kyonei and Mihoshi burst into Washu's lab. Washu turned, but before she could say anything they began yelling about people disapearing. Wahsu waved them down, "Kyonei, tell me what happened." Kyonei took a deep breath and said, "Mihoshi and I went to check on the babies, and when we got there the wall of their room was gone and so were they. We also can't find Tenchi or Ryoko anywhere." Washu's eye widend and she looked at Mihoshi who nodded confirmation to Kyonei's story. Washu turned to her computer and did a scan of the area. "Oh no..." Washu gasped. Kyonei and Mihoshi stepped up behind her, "What is it Washu?" Washu turned and looked at them. "It seems an old frined of ours has dropped by." Her computer showed a Galaxy Police file DNA match up. The face going along with it was that of Princess Ayeaka. Mihoshi bit her lip and looked at Washu, "She... she wouldn't hurt them would she Washu?" Washu turned back to her computer, "We have to find them NOW!" Tenchi and Ryoko woke up strapped to metal tables on the bridge of a space ship. This was a first for Ryoko but Tenchi recognized the situation almost instantly. He had been on this same table twelve months earlier when he had been kidnapped by Ayeaka. He looked towards the console and saw Ayeaka standing there. He hair had grown out since the last time and hung over half of her face. Her red eyes reflected the light odly and Tenchi felt a chill. "So you are finaly awake lord Tenchi. And I see your monster princess is awake aswell." Tenchi looked at the table next to him and saw Ryoko looking back. She had a strange collar around her neck and was struggling against her bonds. "Oh don't strain yourself dear Ryoko, the collars I gave you two totaly neutralizes your power. But don't worry, what could I possibly do to you? After all, you are soo much more powerful than me, right?" Ryoko growled and yelled at her, "What have you done with my children Ayeaka?" Ayeaka laughed and shook her head, "You will find out soon enoough Ryoko, in the mean time I need to set up for the game." Ayeaka pressed a button on the control panel and Ryoko's table slid back into a hole in the wall. Tenchi struggled and looked at Ayeaka, "Where did she go?" Ayeaka smirked back and said, "Oh don't you worry Tenchi. Your little demon and her children are fine... for now." Tenchi struggled as he saw a glass bubble fall from the ceiling above him. In Washu's lab Kyonei and Mihoshi watched as the scientist traced the path of Ayeaka's space ship through subspace. She had been at it for twelve hours and had almost found her. The trail was getting fresher. Finaly she located the ship in orbit around a sun in the Sagitarius sector. "I've found her. You two take your space ship and head out there now. I'll work from here and build a tunnel for you to get back." Kyonei and Mihoshi ran off leaving Washu. They passed Nobiyuki, Tsusami, and Yosho on the way out and told them what was happening. In the lab Washu wiped the tears from her eyes, "I will save you Ryoko." Tenchi banged against the sides of the glass bubble. He was suspended in the air over open space. Next to him was another bubble with his babies in it. He could not move and the collar on his neck stopped him from summoning the light hawk wings. Ayeaka was at the console again and Ryoko's table returned. The bonds holding Ryoko to the table released, but Ayeaka had a blaster aimed at her and the collar kept her fom using her powers. Ryoko looked at her and sneered, "So what's this twisted game you want to play?" Ayeaka laughed, "Oh it's just something I came up with. I want to see just how much you love Tenchi. I'm going to drop both of those bubbles into space towards the sun. You can either save one of them or the other, not both. Who do you think you will choose?" Ryoko's eyes narrowed in disgust, "You sick bitch." Ayeaka smiled and shook her head, "This from the killer of so many people?" Ryoko turned and ran towards the bubbles. Behind her she heard Ayeaka say, "Let the games begin." The latches holding the bubbles in place let go and the bubbles began to drift out into space. Ryoko watched in horror as Tenchi and their children started to disapear. Tench was yelling at her through the bubble, to tell her to save their children. The babies only sat there playing with eachother. With a scream of rage Ryoko lunged forward and grabbed onto Tenchi's bubble. She screamed again as she saw her children vanish into space, "Ayeaka you have gone too far! I will kill you for this!" Ayeaka laughed and pointed the gun at Ryoko, "Well it seems you do love him. It's just too bad that I have to kill you two now." She leveled the gun at Ryoko's back and almost pulled the trigger, when something strange happened. From out in space the two babies floated back into the ship. Ryoko looked at them amazed. Inside her head she heard her daughters giggling and saying how they had passed through the bubble just like they'd seen Ryoko pass through walls. Ryoko smiled at her little girls, "That's very good, but do you think you two could help mommy and daddy out here? " Ryochi flew over to Ryoko and pulled off the collar from Ryoko's neck. Meanwhile Tenko flew under Tenchi's bubble and lifted it onto the deck. Ryoko cracked it open and pulled Tenchi out. Behind them Ayeaka screamed in rage and began firing at Ryoko and Tenchi. Ryoko was shot in the shoulder just before she got her sheild up. Ryoko gritted her teeth. Ayeaka turned and grabbed for the control pannel, but was stopped when Ryoko used her good hand to blast at her. Ayeaka turned back and stared at Ryoko with hatred in her eyes. Then she looked at the little babies in Tenchi's arms who were pulling off his collar. "You ruined my game you little brats!" Ryoko was about to finish her off, when she saw her babies watching her from Tenchi's arms. She shook her head no. SHe couldn;t let them see her kill. Even if it was Ayeaka. She instead blasted the panel and Ayeaka's weapon. Ryoko then wqalked over and picked the princess up by her throat, "I think I know just what to do with you princess..." Kyonei and Mihoshi arrived shortly afterwards and picked them up. Ryoko told them about her plan and they whole heartedly agreed. On the way back to Earth Ayeaka was locked in the stasis field on Yukanojo. Tenchi and Ryoko played with their babies. He looked up at Ryoko and smiled, "And we thought they were a hand full before they could fly." They laughed and hugged eachother happily. Whne they returned to Earth the first thing they did was go to see Yosho. He agreed that Ryoko's punishment was probably the best way and lead the way into the shrine. Years later Ryoko would still tell her children of the horrible demon princess who was imprisoned in the cave. The End What did you think? I know there is some room for improvment, but all in all not a bad story eh? Anything you wish to say can be sent to clayton_n@hotmail.com
