"Children of the Goddesses"

Chapter 3: The Long Trip

Ryoko: "How can you know so much Mom?" (Nervously)
Washu: "Because of this! She hit a button on her holo-computer and a picture came
on the living room TV, of a large mechanoid being fighting another mechanoid
being in a city where the buildings recede downward to protect itself.
The first being was mostly red and carried a large weapon,
The second was white and had a more reptile like head. Then the screen changed as
within it showed a girl with long red hair seemingly in control the being,
then the second being shot by the first and the girl was seen dying!
Washu: "That was my grand daughter Asuka, (Washu is now sobbing) this world was
created by Dr. Clay to achieve perfection at any cost." (Now angry through the tears)
Tenchi: "What sort of man would sacrifice children like that?" he said while fuming.
Washu: "That's why I need to have all the equipment to save her, her brother,
sister, and my daughter!
Ryoko: "But, how do you know all this detail?"
Washu: "I found his project file, it's call Evangelion: Neo-Genesis! He's trying
to achieve perfection, which means he wants to become a god, a perfect being!"
(Now with a look of rage)
"We will stop him and get my children out or I will personally carve his guts up!"
She then collapsed and continued to sob. In a flash Ryoko and Nagi were
at her side surrounding them were the rest of the family all with determined
looks on their faces! !

*********************************************************************** *********************************

After the revelations in the living room, Nagi slowly made her way out pier on
the lake.
It had taken her and Ryoko several minutes to calm their mother, Washu and
finally had her lying down in their room on one of the futons there. As several
minutes passed she saw her sister talking to Tenchi and then she headed towards
her.
Nagi was at the end of the pier staring up at the starry sky as her sister
joined her.
Nagi:" So How's Mom? Is she sleeping?"
Ryoko: "Yep, she finally conked out and is sleeping in our room."
They then both stared at the stars!
( Ryoko then got a concerned look) "Are you Ok with this plan of Washu's?"
Nagi: "Well, as we both know whatever we think of the plan, Washu will do it , as
stubborn as she is!"
Ryoko: "Ain't that the truth!" (They both chuckled)
Then after several moments of silence; Ryoko continued;
"I need to ask you something, but I need to get something first! Be right back!"
Nagi then saw Ryoko fly back to phase through the house. With in a minute she
came back with a square case and plopped down where she was sitting before, next
to Nagi. She then pulled 2 Sake bottles out gave one to Nagi, then toasted
"To Family."
Nagi agreed and they spent the next 3 hours drinking and talking.
Ryoko: "Since Mom is asleep, can you tell me how I died, and why you helped me?
(Ryoko was as blunt as anyone, Nagi was just as if not more).
Nagi: "Actually it was Washu who found you. She seems to have a type of mental
link with Ken-oki. She convinced him to pick her up and made me take her to you and
Ryo-oki!"
Ryoko: "With what we know now, she must have sensed I was in trouble. Even though
she didn't know I was her daughter then."
Nagi: "Well, we had Ryo-oki stop where she was and we were there within
10 minutes." (She took another swig)
" Technically, you were dead, but Washu had brought a stasis chamber
miniaturized in her pocket, she enlarged it, and put you in it. We then went to
one of her labs near Jurai and she started working on you. I stayed, I don't know
why. Later when she had revived and repaired you. She then put you back on Ryo-oki and
wiped both your memories, she set the coordinates for earth and I left.
Ryoko:" She knew Tenchi had gone home to earth, when he left Jurai. She knew, and I
know she had interests on Tenchi as much as the other girls. Maybe in the back
of her mind, she knew we were somehow connected."
Nagi: (started to laugh) "You remember, the town she came up with on Venus, I
don't think she would have lifted a finger to do that for us to fight unless she
wanted to keep an eye on us!"
Ryoko:" Could be!" She slouched another bottle of Sake as Nagi did the same!
A few minutes later!
Nagi: "Why do youuu Like that farm boyyyy!"
Ryoko:" Heee issh the moost loving kind heearted , lovable, sweeeet, kind... did
I say kind already... yep I dishd"
Nagi:" Whay doon't youu just snatch him & take off?"
Ryoko: "Bechause I promised himmm I'd win hiss heart fair and sqwuare! Plush he
wouldn'tt love me if I just took him, you know!"
Nagi: "Too bad he dishin have a brooder, ha!"
They both go on like this for another 2 hours, in the morning Tenchi and a freshly
woken Washu find them sleeping on the dock.

Tenchi: "What should we do with them, Miss Washu?"
Washu: "Help me get them up to their room, I need to talk to you about something,
Tenchi, OK?"
Tenchi: "OK!" ( A few minutes later as they talk at the dining room table. Washu
then recounts how Ryoko died and was saved by Washu and Nagi.) "You mean she was hurt
that much? (He was upset) No one told me?!"
Washu: "Would you have gone after Ayeka and faced Kagato?"
Tenchi: "You know thinking about it, I don't know, I would have gotten her either
to wait for me or left one of the knights with her!"
Washu: "If you did that you wouldn't have gotten to the throne room, and Kagato
would have won. She was protecting your chance to win."
Tenchi: "But, why did she leave, why didn't she stay and wait for me?"
Washu: "Tenchi you know sometimes your such a block head! Can't you see when you
went after Ayeka, she thought you chose her!
So she did what she could because she loves you so much she was willing to let
you go, and die for you! (A stern look came over Washu's face. Then she Slapped
him hard!)
Tenchi: (Rubbing his cheek) "I deserved that! (After a pause) I'll talk to her
when she wakes up".
Washu: "You better, or a slap won't be your only problem!"
Tenchi: "I understand, Miss Washu. Can you tell Sasami to bring my lunch to the
carrot fields?"
Washu: (With a satisfied look)" No Problem Tenchi! He then headed out to work and
to think!"

**************************************************************** ****************************************

Tenchi headed to the shrine office to talk to his grandpa about something that
was bothering him. While the others were piling the supplies for the trip on the
patio.
As he waited to talk to his grandfather he kept thinking about what Washu had
told him earlier in the week. Just then Lord Katsuhito walked in and sat down across from Tenchi.
Katsuhito: "Well, I thought you'd be down at the house getting ready to go?"
Tenchi: "I was, but I needed to talk to you Grandpa, on an important matter?"
Katsuhito: (Getting an inkling of what was to be asked.)" Does it have to do with
the girls....... and you?"
Tenchi: "Yes,.... How did you know.....?"
Katsuhito: "Ever since we came back from Jurai, you seem to have been pondering
on them . Is it the decision on whom you want to give you heart to?"
Tenchi: "Yes, it does, but I need to ask you a question first. If someone is
truly in love with you, how much will they sacrifice for that person, I mean
would you give your life for them?"
Katsuhito: (He sat in thought examine Tenchi's question for what seemed like
minutes, but was only 10 to 15 seconds)
"Yes, with out a doubt, if that person is truly in love, they would give up
everything for them."
Tenchi: "How do you know Grandpa?"
Katsuhito: (Then quietly he said 2 names) "Haruna .....and..... Achika!"
Tenchi: "Yes, Of course why didn't I see it....."
Katsuhito: "But, Tenchi both gave up their lives for 2 different forms of love!
Haruna gave it up for my love, while Achika shortened her life for you, Tenchi."
(He pause, took a breath and continued)
"Haruna was sick, but didn't tell me. I had to leave Jurai and she insisted to go
with me, I accepted happily. She slowly got worse as we journeyed to Earth and as you
know she died just before we made it to Earth".
Tenchi: "She really loved you. (Looking thoughtfully at his grandfather)
That dimension she created, she did that to live
out the life taken from her and she used me as a substitute for you."
Katsuhito: (eyes slowly getting red and puffy) "And, your mother, she knew while
battling Kain that the blast that took her powers also shortened her life.
But, she did it for your life."
Tenchi: "Yes, I see that now. But, can't what Ayeka and Ryoko helping me save
mother be the same, or Ryoko saving me from Haruna's world, is that the same.
Or, what Ryoko did on Jurai........?"
Katsuhito: Yes, they we helping you, but of the 3 incidents you gave, it seems
to me that both girls put themselves in danger to rescue you, while only one
actually sacrificed their life for you. But, I wouldn't doubt both would give
their lives for you!"
Tenchi: "Your right, both would, and I would for them!" he sighed, nodding his head yes.
Katsuhito: "Well, you may have answered you question, or at least be more clear about it."
Tenchi: "Thanks Grandpa!"
Katsuhito: "Well, let's get down there, I wouldn't want to miss you flight."
Tenchi: "Yeah, guess your right!"

**************************************************************** *****************************************

As Katsuhito and Tenchi make it to the patio, the rest of those going are gathered
there. Those going include Ayeka, Ryoko, Washu, Nagi, Mihoshi, and Kiyone.
Those staying behind are Katsuhito, Nobuyuki, and Sasami.
As they were saying good bye, Washu was holding a silver cylinder as a
dimensional portal opened up to deposit a gigantic cabbit ship 3 times as wide
and with 3 decks below it's bridge section. In an instant the supplies were
beamed aboard. Washu then explained it!
Washu: "Using this device called a mental control wand I am able to control the
ship."
Ayeka: "Will you be the only one to use this mental wand Miss Washu?"
{Don't forget she's in her adult form through this Fic, OK!!}
Washu: "I have programmed it to take commands from myself, Ryoko, and Nagi. In an
emergency I will allow it to accept you Ayeka and Kiyone since you have some
piloting skills. Ok, any more questions?" (She was greeted with silence) "Ok, Lets get going!"

As the Mega cabbit ship made it's way passed Pluto, Washu was thinking of the
coming events. ["I will get them out even if I have to do something drastic. I won't
endanger Ryoko or Nagi, but I will not let that pompous ass Clay sacrifice my child and
her children for one of his schemes. I swear you will pay dearly!"]

Well that's Chapter 3. Chapter 4 will be concerned mostly with the trip there and
with rescuing Yui's Spirit and Shinji. Hope you join me soon with the next episode.
