Showers My e-mail address is MShowmoney@aol.com Final Chapter XenoHawk slices AntiXeno arm off. Fei smiles " Still what some ugly?" AntiXeno covers the hole where his arm was. "No not to the likes of you!" AntiXeno rushes at XenoHawk with his 1 good arm. Unfortunately for him XenoHawk is way to strong for him and catches his fist. XenoHawk's aura grows then dissipates. XenoHawk engulfs AntiXeno with a huge energy blast from the hand that is holding AntiXeno's fist. AntiXeno is reduced to a pile of smoldering ashes. Citan , Billy , and Elly cheer from their fallen gears. XenoHawk glides toward them and shoots a white bean at them. Their gears glow brightly, brighter and brighter........ When all the light dims the fallen gears find themselves restored and upgraded to their omnigear form. Citan is in disbelief " What sort of powers does that gear have?" All of a sudden they feel a rumbling from the ground. Elly contacts Washu "What's going on Washu?" Washu appears on the screen "Krelian laid out a well executed sneak plan. As soon as you guys left for his base he sent out his H-Angels to attack all the major cities of the world. I tried to inform you but there was a strange interference. Ryoko , Ayeka , and Mihoshi went to check it out, sadly they didn't survive the encounter." Tenchi gasps in the cockpit then starts pounding the console. "That's not all some of the H-Angels have came to the shrine , Tenchi , your grandfather and father didn't survive. Sasami and I are the sole surviors." Tenchi is crying " We're got to go back quickly." Fei disagrees " No we have to finish off Krelian. Elly and Billy go to the house, check for Washu. Citan go to help. Then take out any and all H-Angels you see." Billy hesitates "What about you two?" XenoHawk turns to face Krelian's chamber "We'll finish him off for good. Now hurry we don't have much time." Elly, Billy and Citan leave. Tenchi questions Fei "Was that wise? We might need them to attack Krelian." Fei reasserts himself "They don't have nearly the amount of power we have. O.k. stabilize the lighthawk wings we're attacking." But before they can attack the chamber is blown open. Krelian emerges from the chamber. His hair is all the colors of the rainbow. He is also surrounded by a strange dark aura. "So, it seems that we are destined to fight again Fei...But this time fate is on my side. I am a GOD now." Krelian extends his hand , gathers energy and shoots a energy blast that destroys the complex. Krelian hovers high above the blasted area. " Good job I expected as much from you." Krelian turns around to see XenoHawk behind him. Fei and Tenchi are in shock "How did you know we were behind you?" Krelian smiles "I am a god I know everything." Krelian londges at XenoHawk , attacking with a fury of punches. Xenohawk blocks all of them. Krelian backs up then launches several large energy blast at XenoHawk. They are all stopped by an invisible force field in front of XenoHawk. Tenchi focuses his power on Krelian "You butcher you killed my family.....die!!!!" Krelian back up some more "So thats it, another pilot helping , interesting........" XenoHawk comes at Krelian with sword slices. Krelian is dodging each slice even though each slice is coming at .5 seconds apart. After many attempts XenoHawk stops. Tenchi and Fei are short of breath. Krelian mock them "If that's it you should give up now before you get hurt." Fei mocks back "I noticed you didn't land an attack either Krelian." Krelian is angered "You imputent whelp, you pay for that." Krelian spreads out his arms and yells "Timefreeze" The world around him stops. Every thing has crystal look to it like glass. Krelian floats over to the frozen XenoHawk "Lets see how tough you are not moving." Krelian prepares to attack , but as he does the glass breaks around him and XenoHawk is free. Krelian is in disbelief "No...That's not possible" Tenchi laughs "Sorry we've got that ability too!" Krelian is livid. He flys out to space. XenoHawk follows. Krelian turns and faces the Earth "You shouldn't be this powerful. I was the one that absorbed the genetic code and suffered. But if I can't rule no one will." Krelian powers up to his maximum. He then creates an energy sphere 10 times bigger than the Earth. Krelian laughs crazily "Dodge if you want but it's headed for Earth." Krelian throws the sphere. XenoHawk positions itself in front of the incoming sphere. Tenchi is going crazy in the cockpit " What are we doing it'll kill us?" Fei calmly answers "We're got to catch it or Earth is gone. Try to muster all the energy you can so we can reflect it...." The sphere hits them head on. Instead of stopping it XenoHawk is riding it all the way to Earth just like a bug on a car windshield. Fei positions XenoHawks sword inside the sphere "O.K I got the sword in the blast all I need is a blast powerful enough to destroy it. Tenchi that's your department." Tenchi is straining to build energy "I...need....a ...few.....more.....minutes......" Fei trys to buy some time for Tenchi by turning Xenohawk's thrusters on , and pushing the opposite direction of the sphere's course. The sphere slows a little but continues on it's death run. The sphere continues to carry them for a few more minutes. Then XenoHawk's thrusters blow out. And it just happens that they have started entering the Earth's atmosphere. Fei pleads with Tenchi "We can't wait any more Tenchi release the energy." Tenchi releases the energy into XenoHawk's sword. The blast takes out the sphere , but the beam keeps going toward an energy drained Krelian. "Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!" The energy beam hits Krelian and destroys him. Tenchi is astound by the blast hitting Krelian "What a shot." Fei smiles "I was going on the fact you would gather more than enough energy , and I aimed at our defense less friend." Tenchi laughs "And the scary thing is that I only got to 50% of our full power.Let's go home." XenoHawk flys back to the Masaki shrine. The Masaki shrine is partially ruined. Fei and Tenchi get out of XenoHawk and head into Washu's lab. Once inside the lab they meet up with Washu and Sasami. Sasami gives Tenchi a big hug and tells him all about what happened after they left. Meanwhile Washu pulls Fei over to the side to tell him about some dire news. "What is it Miss Washu?" Washu has a haggard look on her face "It's about your friends. A couple of minutes ago I got an energy reading that matched Citan , Elly and Billy. They were facing H-Angels then their readings dropped. I sent a surveillance probe to the area and........" "And what!!" Washu turns away from him "They were dead. Killed by H-Angels." Fei is shocked to the point he can't speak. Tears stream down his face. Washu trys to console him, but to no avail.Then she gives both Tenchi and Fei more bad news "The Earth is also dying. When Krelian absorbed all the genetic codes he became the living equivalent of Earth. When he died he tooks the Earth with him." Tenchi chimes in "Can we reverse the process?" Washu starts to type on her computer "Yes , you need to close the rift that Krelian came through in the first place. That should change everything. All our friends will be revived and won't remember a thing about the last couple of days." Fei interrupts her "Why didn't you say so , if we can bring them all back then that's the ticket." Fei starts to head for the door , Washu stops him " Wait , since the rift has been open for so long the 2 Earth's would be combined , plus I don't know what would happen to you two. If you get to close to it you might be erased from both worlds and you wouldn't exist in the new combined world." Fei loosens Washu's grip " I have to try. For Elly's sake." Tenchi follows "Yes we're got to try." Washu knows she's fighting a losing battle "O.K. Your guys get in your gear , and I'll teleport you there. But I warn you as soon as the rift is closed I'm teleporting you back." In space XenoHawk has reached the rift. Fei stops XenoHawk a few kilometers short of the rift. "Washu estimated it would take 100% of XenoHawk's energy to close the rift so lets begin." Tenchi is powering up. 5% , 10% , 30% , 60% ,80% , 100% Tenchi struggles to speak " Hope ..your.. aim ...is... on" Fei positions XenoHawk's sword toward the rift and Tenchi fires. An extremely large blastbeam leaves the sword and enters the rift. The rift is slowly closing but it's pull starts to increase. It's dragging XenoHawk in. Fei turns Xenohawk's thrusters on reverse. But they are still being dragged in. Fei make a revelation "At this rate we'll get dragged in too ,tried to call Washu but the lines are dead. We need to close the rift but it needs a little more energy. Got anything left Tenchi?" Tenchi is panting " Nope completely empty. It must needs the remaining energy in XenoHawk's internal armor. At least if we get dragged in we can die knowing we saved our friends." Fei smile "Not all my friends will be saved. Well, maybe he will. Computer isolate pilot 2 cockpit and eject." The back of XenoHawk blows off and Tenchi is speeding away in a capsule. Tenchi is banging on the capsule "No Fei noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!" He can see Fei smiling and waving goodbye before XenoHawk is pulled into the rift and the rift closes. Back at the Masaki shrine "Mom, I tell you something's wrong with Tenchi."Ryoko yells. Ayeka agrees " I've noticed many changes in Tenchi since we found him next to a pile of debris in the forest 3 days ago. He 's allot quieter and he doesn't seem all there." Mihoshi also agrees "And during some parts of the day he disappears , and doesn't return for hours." Sasami also agrees " He talks in his sleep , and won't eat." Washu assests the situation " O.K . what we'll do is follow him when he leaves to find out what's going on." They do so. They follow Tenchi into the clearing in the forest. To the exact spot of the crash. They hear Tenchi say something "You saved my very existence , but I remember all the pain and sadness that we endured. You and I are the same. Same blood , same flesh , same bone. We were brothers in arms. But in the end it was my older brother saving the younger from a fate worse than death. But the sad thing is if put in the same position I don't know if I could do it. Let my friend go to his family and I face the end all alone. And for that I will always be sorry my friend." Tenchi leaves the clearing. The others enter the clearing , Ryoko is crying "Did you hear that. What could have hurt Tenchi so much to cause so much pain?" Mihoshi , Sasami , and Ayeka are also crying and agreeing. Washu is at the exact spot Tenchi was standing "Look here this maybe it." They all look where Washu is looking. They see a tombstone with a rose next to it. It reads: Fei Fong Wong Masaki Died so that we could live Courageous to the end FIN Thanks for reading the series. I promise another story soon.
