Chapter 4 - Necessary Struggles

############### SPACE STATION EMERGENCE ################

"PLEASE! MY QUEE-AAAAAHHHH-"

"Now, you understand what I mean by never being able to fail me again."
Addressing the dark guard to her right, "Take him away. You are now
the security advisor for the station. Do not fail me, or you will join
her."

"Yes your highness." The dark clad guard stepped forward and swept the
ashes into the trash. Calling into his communicator, "Get Officer
Demetry up here to the throne room. We require a new guard. Oh, and
assemble the rest of the security staff, we have some issues to take
care of." With that, he bowed before the queen and left.

"Curses. I have lost two of the more promising items in my army.
With this leak, I must place my plan into action and train the rest on the
go." Queen Kyah clenched the side of the ruby studded throne. "Gothax
will pay. No doubt he was behind this."

Pushing a button to the left.

"Yes love?"

"A little informal today, aren't we?" Grinning to herself. Although she
was a warrior of superb quality, she was not without feeling. The scientist
Kis Lubinah slowly found a place in her heart after Gothax's betrayal, and
the feelings were returned. However, they still had to keep an air of
formality around so the rest of the station didn't get comfortable. After
all, they were at war.

"You know I have sensors trained specifically on you. You just fried
the ex-security officer and sent the guard out. Isn't that the fourth
one this year? Hope you aren't getting too soft."

"Well, I couldn't keep losing my staff at that rate." Breathing out
a heavy sigh, "Are you done with the thought crowns? I would like
to see some of the arrival's powers and begin subjecting them to our purpose.
With the leak today, I will be pushing the plan into action tomorrow, so
try to have them in free thought mode by then. That way they may train before
their missions commence."

After a brief pass, "I have already thought of that. I have five subjects
under full control mode, and should be done with the rest in about five
hours. By the end of tomorrow, the computer will have completed the free
thought conversion. If my staff fails, they'll see some of the habits
I've picked up from you - only in my own calculating fashion."

"Send them to my chamber, and send five test pillars too. Don't work
yourself too much, otherwise you won't have enough energy left for what I
have planned for you tonight." Kyah could just imagine what was going
through that hentai's mind. Being a scientist had left a void in his love
life before meeting her. It also gave them some interesting nights with
him coming up with some wonderful methods.

"Very well. Bye love."

Seven minutes later, several guards walked through. Half of the group
levitated the ten foot tall, five ton, meter square stone pillars to
the right side of the chamber. The other half escorted five of
the new arrivals to the left side. On their heads were gems that
sparkled, emanating waves of brain energy, controlling their every
movement, and keeping their consciousness in a dream world. It did
however allow enough consciousness to stay active to perform what was
needed to attack. Unfortunately in this state, they could not learn new
abilities or remember what was going on around them. They still kept their
previous clothing, which was slightly burnt from the dimensional travels.

After the guards had lined up behind their stone faced captives, Kyah
walked up to the one on the left. He had a leopard skinned bandana
and loose fitting clothes. His hair went every which way and the only
attempt at keeping it under control was the bandana. With the thought
crown on, everyone's mouth was open slightly. This individual sported
a set of fangs.

"Interesting. It's amazing how you can pick up the strangest people
across dimensions. At least if they triggered the energy trap, which
required a good portion of energy on par with high explosives, they
would be sensible about when to use that power. They would most
likely be dead by now if they didn't. If they did survive through the
misuse of all that power, god must have a sick sense of humor.

--- Elsewhere...
--- "Hope you aren't catching cold sir."
--- "That's all right Mister Popo. Seems to have subsided now."

In a flat voice, Kyah asked, "What is your name?"

"Ryoga Hibiki," which was answered just as flatly.

Taking one step to his right, she ordered him. "Destroy one of those
stone pillars."

He leapt forward, reaching across twenty feet of empty space in that one
leap. "BAKUSAI TENKETSU!" Without swinging a punch, or flinging an
energy wave, Ryoga touched the pillar, sending chunks of rock and dust
hurling into the air. Fortunately the energy barrier was activated,
allowing living items to pass through both ways, but everything
else was one way, and blocked.

"Return to here." She pointed at the spot he was standing. He wouldn't
have remembered where he was at with the mind crown. To her surprise,
he started wandering the other way.

"I SAID HERE!"

One of the guards felt pity for the young man and escorted him to the spot.
It wouldn't be good to have one of their prized fighters getting fried,
just because the poor louse got lost.

The next three fighters were sent at once to attack the pillars. The
first of the three, named A-Ko Magami, used a brute force attack and
pulverized the stone column. Next, Lina Inverse didn't move from
her place, but fired what looked like a ki blast. Kyah didn't feel
her power up, but knew it was magic - perhaps hearing her yell out
"Fire ball!" helped with that assumption a little. The third of the
three attackers was B-Ko Daitokuji. She was the obvious brains of
the group - but definitely lacked any fashion sense. Her outfit looked
like it came out of a bad movie. Looks weren't everything however,
because with her attack, the rapid fire missiles packed more wallop
than any of her troops' conventional weapons.

Finally, she came to the last member of the team. Like Lina, he appeared
to be a magic user, but not as strong. The thought crown also seemed
to be using an unusual amount of energy to control him.

"What is your name sorcerer?"

"Diginux."

"Strange name for a magic user. Attack the pillar."

He did so, but unleashed an incredible amount of magical power into the
attack. More than enough to break the hold the thought crown had on
him.

"FREE!!! AT LAST!! 17,000 years of bondage in that universe." His
energy level skyrocketed, washing over his body in waves, totally hiding
the transformation within. Shafts of light shot out, melting what
they touched. Fortunately, the crowns on the other individuals allowed
for self defense, and they bounded away to the other side
of the room. The guards, on the other hand, weren't as swift. Their
bodies exploded into a red mist, showering Kyah with the bits that
didn't vaporize.

The transformation subsided, revealing an entirely different person
standing at the epicenter. He was covered in white armor, similar to
those of the medieval past. The helmet sported a dark visor that came
to a peak in front. On the forehead of the helmet was a golden
point. Its peak was the only part that made contact with the suit,
with it's two sides jutting out six centimeters.

"Thank you for releasing me from the bondage my enemies tricked me
into so long ago. For that, I will spare your life for now. With
such a long time since I've traveled the universes, I must take a
slight tour. Farewell."

He then opened a portal, and stepped through. Kyah shook with fear.
The powers she felt in the transformation tore at the fabric of
space-time, and didn't show any glimmer of magic or ki use. Although
he did show some magical knowledge, none of that particular energy
signature shown through during the light show.

"What have I unleashed?"

############## TELLEO GROUND SPACE PORT, DOCK 53A ####################

"All right! Glad to be out of that recycled air and into the real thing."
Komosauro did a stretch and cracked his knuckles. "Also good to move
around again. This is it gang. I'm going over to area four of the
port to talk to a mechanic friend of mine. He has some connections
that can get us some really nice equipment." Leaning toward Ryoko.
"Then I can really knock your socks off."

Ryoko grew slightly red, and drew Tenchi closer to give Komosauro
the right idea.

Smirking, Komosauro continued. "To the east is the city of Harberg,
the capital of this world. It's large, about six billion population,
and should have enough opportunities for you to find a job. I don't
care what you do, just as long as it's legal. We don't need to be
attracting any unwanted attention."

Leaning toward Ryoko again. "I'm sure you know what I mean, oh
mighty ex-pirate one."

"Now hold on there. That was in my universe. Here I'm just out
to steal Tenchi's heart, then I'll worry about plundering."

Tenchi was amazed. Usually after two taunts Ryoko was flenging energy
blasts everywhere, putting a new look into the countryside that could
put a gardener in a coma. This Komosauro guy knew just which buttons
to push, and how hard.

After splitting up, Komosauro boarded a hover shuttle to the other
side of the port. "Time to give ole' Sledgehammer Jake a surprise."

------

Meanwhile, Ryoko was heading toward the police station. Usually, she
would avoid them like the plague, but here, she was going to take
advantage of her newfound innocence. Walking to the counter, she
asked for every bounty available in the city. If she couldn't blow
stuff up for her own riches, she'd blow it up legally and make some
cash on the side. "That's a nice one... 40,000 neys. That's about
what Komo said was a good rate." Her eyes grew red, and she put
on her best feline hunting face. "Come out where ever you are - "
looking at the sheet - " big ugly six eyed lizard."

-------

In a completely different part of town, where even the law enforcement
didn't tred, Vegeta strode forward. "Pathetic. The local peasants
said this area was full of gangs looking for a fight. I have not found
one worthy of breaking a sweat."

The fourth group came out from the shadows. "Looky here. Mister
Muscle, and with clean clothes too. Hand over the boots punk."

Spitting to the side, "Come and get em." Vegeta didn't even get into
a fighting stance.

"Get'em boys! AAAAAHHHH!!" The group of fourteen gangsters, brandishing
laser rifles, crowbars, wave axes, and shock chains charged valiantly
forward. Five feet from Vegeta, who still hadn't shifted position,
they hit an invisible barrier. Laser shots curved around it, melting
nearby buildings, or turning their comrades into extra crispy. Weapons
bounced off, and those that tried to struggle forward weren't making
any headway.

"What is up with this guy? I didn't detect any shielding!"

"What's wrong with you? Call yourself a warrior? Now watch what
someone of true saiyan blood can do."

Vegeta raised his left hand, and vaporized half the group, careful
to miss the leader.

"I'm disgusted with you. I'll spare your life if you hand over all
your money, and go find me someone worthy to fight. I'll be waiting
right here."

The white faced leader quickly emptied his pockets and ran off.
"You wait right there! Bunksaw will deal with you, and you'll be missing
both pairs of legs WITH your boots."

Smirking, "Fine with me. Bring it on."

------

Goku and Tenchi stuck together, agreeing they may be more successful
pooling their resources and cooperating. They just didn't expect to be
pooling their resources in a hushsi restaurant.

The food they served up looked like an octopus with horns, and it
was still hungry. Apparently the locals considered it a treat,
especially if it ate one of the cooks before it was served. Goku wasn't
about to let that happen, rapidly overcooking several of the dishes
with ki blasts. Tenchi felt the same, and served of jiggling,twitching,
purple blobs most of the time. Somehow they all lost their legs after
some light shows in the back.

The owner didn't mind though. Finding anyone willing to cook in this
restaurant was rare and he usually had to resort to slave traders.
These two also had broken the previous record of remaining not part
of the main course. Beaming, he yelled out into the kitchen where
the smell of something burning bellowed out, "Keep it up boys!
I might give you a raise tomorrow if you are still alive!"

A combined Goku and Tenchi grown could be heard.

###################### JUUBAN #####################################

Ranma, having the benefit of surprise against his hidden foe, was shocked
to find himself flying toward the koi pond. His opponent must either
have the best reaction time he's ever seen, or just plain lucky.
Inside, he prayed it was just luck. A female voice spoke inside his head,
`Come on Ranma. When was the last time you got a break fighting a new
opponent? That wasn't luck and this is going to be one heck of a fight.`

Where did that voice come from? He must of thought it, but he doesn't
remember recalling bringing that about himself.

Six bright transformation shows later, the scouts were ready to fight.

`Six? I don't recall a sixth senshi in the area,` thought Amy. Bringing
her visor down, she scanned the area and discovered Sailor Pluto hiding
behind the wall beside the gate. `Must be serious for her to show.
First we must deal with this intruder.`

Washu wasn't worried about Sailor Pluto. She fully expected the senshi
of time to show, especially since the threes' arrival altered the
time stream dramatically in this universe. Her instruments were
concentrating on the fighter above them, firing blasts at the five
inner senshi. Sailor Moon already had a scorch mark on her shoulder,
courtesy of the first blast directed at the one giving a drawn out
battle speech.

Sakana was having the time of her life. The insects below her were
scrambling every which way avoiding her blasts. The one to surprise attack
her was put out of commission early, leaving the five and one other
that didn't seem to have any attack skills. While the five oddly
dressed girls did fling some powerful attacks, they were too slow and
they always seemed to announce the attack. 'This is going to be
too easy...' "Ha! Run my little red haired one!" 'Nice flip, let's see
if she can do that again.' "HA!" 'Oh, there's another one hiding
behind the wall, it'll be really humorous to see six scantily glad
jumping beans. Let's give her a real scare.' "MOH GISH HA!"

A large ki blast came down, vaporizing the wall Sailor Pluto was behind.
She was sent realing backward into a truck on the other side of the street.

Washu knew they were losing, badly. Something had to be done to
assist the scouts' attacks. 'Wait, I created their attacks, I should
be able to modify them, and I know just the thing. It worked once a
few thousand years ago...'

Ranma was starting to come out of it. She was in sitting in about
six inches of water, with the warm feel of blood coming down her
back. Must have hit that boulder a little hard. Her brain then
registered she was holding something. Glancing down, she could make
out the shape of the henshin rod given to her thousands of years ago,
in this universe. Also, another feeling came about her - to her side
were two "C-C-CAT!!!"

The scream stopped all fighting for a second, but quickly resumed
when Sakana flinged a blast at Sailor Venus who attempted to sneak
a Venus Love-me Chain attack during the pause. Yelling the attack
name didn't help.

"Sorry Ranma, can't help you right now!" There, the last energy pole
was up, now to link in and activate. Washu then decided to break out
her best mad scientist laugh. "Muahahaha!"

If Sakana had any idea who this woman was that was laughing,
she would have jumped through three different universes in rapid
succession. Unfortunately, she didn't.

"Now girls! Fire!"

The beams went up, and missed as before. However, Sakana wasn't
watching what happened them behind her. All six attacks arched
back around and cascaded into her back. Each one added to her
velocity and slammed her into the street, creating a crater five
feet deep, spanning the width of the street.

"You are going to pay for that, no one gets that lucky with
Sakana again." Grunting, she lifted up into the air and powered
up to half strength. If they thought I was tough at ten percent
my full strength, they don't stand a chance at this level.

Meanwhile, Ranma felt the ki source growing, but was powerless to do
anything about it. That hit must of hurt him internally worst
than he thought, and he couldn't escape the c c ca - them. There was nowhere
to go. The two talking demons in front of him had him cornered, there
was nowhere to run. Then the world went white.

"Hi there cutey."
