Ok, lets give this a shot...

C&C me on plot developments, glaring errors in storyline, not dinky
spelling mistakes please.

Eternity War

This is my first crossover Fanfic, so bear with me.  I don't kill off
characters for the fun of it, nor do I use random character violence.
(Aka, everything in this has a point, just may not be obvious at first.)

Prelude to Conflict:

Chapter 1:  Lights in the Darkness

 Darkness...
 A light flickers briefly in the distance...
 Growing, the light becomes a ship...

The ship stops approaching a some distance.  Flashes appear around it.
>From the look of it, a battle is going on.

 <Lord, I believe that you should see this.>
 <You know it is best not to disturb me...>
 <Of course my lord.  But the probe has detected something.>
 <Excellent!  Place it on the view screen.>

The battle abates.  For several moments, all is quiet.

 <Apparently the ship had no trouble defeating its opponents.>
 <Yes my lord.  Shall I continuing tracking it?>
 <Please do.  I wish to know the motives of the person who commands that
ship.>
 <Of course my lord.  Shall I have the probe approach closer?>
 <Yes.  Perhaps this is the source of the Energy that we detected
earlier.>
 <Ill initiate the scan...>

The ship cruises away from the wreckage.  The view swings after it,
slowly.  A piece of scrap strikes the view-screen.  The letters GP can
be seen on it.  The ship travels through space, finally arriving at a
blue-green planet.

 <The ship has entered an orbit around that planet.>
 <Has the scan been completed?>
 <Yes, my lord.  We have detected one life form and an energy
signature.>

Time passes.  Finally, the ship moves away form the planet.

 <The ship has resumed movement.  We are now detecting two life forms
and an energy  signature.>
 <What is that coming from the planet?>
 <Apparently a set of two ships.  One seems to previously been damaged,
and has been linked  with the other.  Lord, I am detecting the energy
source coming from the second ship.>
 <Monitor the situation...>

The ship is attacked by the pursuing ship.  During the battle, the
pursuing ship is heavily damaged by the first ship.

 <Lord, the energy source has dropped dramatically in power.>
 <Was it the ship, or someone on board?>
 <The energy source has vanished, Lord.>
 <Damn!!!  Continuing tracking the first ship.>

The pursuing ship slams into the first ship.  The image distorts.

 <A massive energy surge has been detected, my lord!>
 <Incredible!>

A third ship materializes on the scene.

 <Lord, the energy source has returned.  The new ship appears to have
similarities in its  energy patterns to your nemeses.>
 <Could she be involved in this?>
 <The energy in the ship has gone off the scales!!!>

A bright flash of light appears along the axes of the First ship,
seconds after the third ship disappears.

 <The probes scanners have been overloaded!!!>
 <We must find out what happened!>

The ships drifts in space for a time.  All appears to be peaceful.

 <Begin to send the probe in for a closer inspection.>
 <Yes, my lo...>
 <What the!?!?!>

The ship splits in half, directly down the center axis.

 <Lord, the ship has been totally destroyed.>
 <Are there any survivors?>
 <The second ship is moving away, my lord.  There is also another life
form 200,000  Kilometers form the remains of the ship.  Its life signs
are failing quickly...>
 <Send the probe to retrieve it!>
 <Retrieval successful.>
 <Have the probe return to the base immediately!>

...

Deep in the bowels of a forgotten planet...

 The figure on the table stirred slightly.  Groaning, it reviewed what
had happened.  Apparently after his final battle, the auto-retrieve unit
that he had painstakingly set up had activated.  The figure smiled a
little at that.  He hadn't gotten it to work before Tenchi and Ayeka had
arrived in Ryo-oki.  Suddenly, voices began to speak in the background.
They seemed to be low and monotonous, and sounded metallic.  The figure
strained to listen as the two voices cut through the silence of the
room.
 "Well done..." the first voice spoke in a low, menacing tone.  "The
scanners had been unable to pick up how badly he was injured.  He seemed
to be a lost cause when he got here."
 "Thank you lord."  the second voice squawked.  It sounded as if it was
projected through a loud, squeaky speaker.  "The cellular regeneration
process was able to restore the subject, even though 72% of his body had
been disintegrated in his battle."
 "How soon until the process is complete?" asked the first voice.
 "Unknown.  The regeneration process inside the subjects nervous system
has only been 93% effective." intoned the second voice.  "The subject
will be able to function, but its mental stability may have suffered."
 "That is of little import to me."  the first voice snapped.  "Awaken
him!  There are answers that I must have immediately!"
 "Of course Lord Darkon!"
 A cool metal cylinder pressed against the subjects arm.  He took this
as a good time to open his eyes.  A hiss issued from the cylinder, and
the subject slowly opened his eyes and looked around.
 The room appeared to have been less built than grown.  Slime oozed on
the walls, and objects moved slowly farther away.  He was lying in the
grip of some huge claw that held him firmly.  The claw rotated around,
holding him tightly and angling itself so he was in a near standing
position.  Two metallic figure stared at him.  One was broken as
misshapen, with an oversized head.  Pieces of metal emerged from several
different areas.  An experiment gone wrong, thought the subject.
Perhaps a mutation designed to be more intelligent while sacrificing
structure?
 The second though, was more impressive.  It stood two feet taller than
the subject, and was encased in some type of exo-armor.  Spikes jutted
from its shoulders, and its hands ended in massive claws.  A sleek helm
ran over its head, joining flawlessly with the chest portion of the
armor.  A long cape moved gently, with a life of its own.  The warrior
stood looking down at him with glowing red eyes.  It flexed its hand and
strode over towards the chair.  The subject had no real appreciation of
this creatures power until this moment.
 In that same deadly tone of voice, it said, "What is your name?"
 The subject did not respond.
 The creature repeated again, "What is your name?"
 Still the subject was silent.
 The creature made a gesture to the mutant.  The mutant nodded an
pressed a portion of the wall.  Suddenly massive surges of electricity
surge into the subject!  The pain ripped to the very center of his
being.  Arcs of electricity shot over his body, and smoke rose from his
his hair as small portions of it caught fire.  As suddenly as it had
started, it stopped.
 The creature asked again, "What is your name?  I will continue to
torture you until you either answer or you die."
 When no answer was forth coming, the creature gestured again.  Once
again, electricity flashed around the subject.  Screams of pain echoed
through-out the complex.  Light flashed on the helmet of the creature.
It seemed to be enjoying itself.
 "What is your name?"
 A whisper "Kagato."
 "And what is your occupation, Mr. Kagato?"
 "I am a scientist."
 "Very few SCIENTISTS possesses battleships like yours."  The creature
snorted in disbelief.  "Tell me the truth, or you will know pain like no
other."
 "I am telling you the truth, you sorry excuse for a trash compactor!"
Kagato shot back.
 The creature shrugged, and turned around.  Just as Kagato though it was
going to leave, it spun around a slammed a clenched fist into his
stomach.  The breath whooshed out of him and he felt one of his ribs
break.  The creature kneeled down and grabbed his white hair.  It yanked
his head and stared him in the eye.
 "I may have saved you from a death in space, but than gives you no
privileges.  I will destroy you if I please, but for now, you will refer
to me as either 'Master' or 'Master Darkon'.  Is that clear?"
 "Yes."
 "Good.  So Kagato, what happened to your ship?"

...

 The session with Darkon lasted for several hours.  Many times did
Kagato feel the sting of the energy field, but after ten times he
finally told the whole of his story.
 "So, you were attempting to tap into this 'Tsunami'."  Darkon said.
"But this boy Tenchi and his friends managed to defeat you, correct?"
 "Yes, and I do wish to have my revenge on that boy."  Kagato muttered.
He frowned, for he currently believe that he would no longer be a match
for him.
 "You may well get your wish..."  Darkon looked at Kagato.  "My
veneomoid forces have been driven from another dimension by several
traitors inside our own group.  I need a base of operations in this
dimension, thus having unlimited resources to draw upon in my attack on
my home dimension.  The boy Tenchi has a source of power unknown to us.
We seek to capture him and analyze this pow"
 Kagato cut him off.  "I have tried everything, and I am one of the
greatest scientists in this galaxy.  What you are seeing is the power of
the Royal Blood line of Jurai.  No one can duplicate or artificially
reproduce that power.  Believe me, I have tried."
 Darkon looked at Kagato darkly.  "I do not like being interrupted.  But
I will let it pass for now.  You do not have access to the types of
technology that we do.  Using our venemoids, we will attempt to isolate
his power and discover how it works."  He looked towards the bowels of
the room.  "And you don't have to understand a power to be able to use
it..."
 Kagato let out a guffaw.  "You have never fought this boy.  He will
defeat anything that you can throw at him.  I had access to one of the
greatest power sources in the universe, and he still defeated me.  You
would have to create a powerful weapon, with the power to destroy all he
loves before you can even touch him!"
 Darkon looked at him.  "Exactly.  That is why we are going to use you
for this task."
 Kagato was caught completely off guard.  "ME?"
 Suddenly a pod began to slide around the claw that was holding him.  He
let loose a muffled scream as it engulfed him.  "NO!!!  WHAT ARE YOU
DOING!!!  STOP I  MMMPH MMMPPH!!!"
 Darkon looked at the struggling scientist.  "We shall make you into a
powerful weapon.  Powerful enough to defeat that boy."
 The pod flashed, and from within came a muffled scream...

...

 The green and black suited figure looked at its hands.  Such power, it
wasn't possible.  He was magnificent.  Lines of spines ran down the
backs of his arms, and spikes covered his shoulders.  He clenched his
fist around the pipe, and was amazed at how easy it crumpled.  His own
powers of flight were augmented into a special jet pack, and he felt
invincible.
 Darkon looked at him approvingly.  "So Kagato, you stand a better
chance against that boy.  I will be sending other warriors to earth
soon, so attempt to secure an area for a new base.  in return for your
services, you will be granted any and all requested research materials."

 Kagato turned to Darkon, the front of his helmet sliding open to reveal
his face..  "I have two questions.  What is to be done with Tenchi's
friends?"
 Darkon shrugged.  "Do what you wish with them."
 An evil grin spread across Kagato's face as he dreamed of "Discussing"
a few things with Ryoko.  "And how do you want Tenchi delivered to you?"

 Darkon said in a bored voice, "Alive if possible."  He turned to
Kagato, "Dead, just as good..."
