Tenchi breathed a sigh of relief as Ryoko alighted to the ground
with an irritated and shaken Ayeka.
Ayeka ran up to Tenchi, hugging him. "You saw!" She accused.
"Ryoko tried to kill me!"
"So," Ryoko challenged, "this is the thanks I get for saving
your life!"
"Saving my...?" Ayeka took up the challenge, drawing up on her
powers.
Ryoko's own powers came to life once again.
"Calm down, you two." Tenchi warned. The last thing he needed
was for them to unleash their powers here, in town. It was bad
enough that there was a cabbit... He suddenly remembered why
he'd come here. Concerned, he went back in and looked for
Mihoshi.
There was a big crash at the back of the store. Going to it,
Tenchi found just what he expected.
"I thought that was you." Tenchi told Mihoshi as he helped her
to her feet.
"Thanks, Tenchi." Mihoshi blushed.
"Where's Fluffy?" Tenchi asked.
"In the back room." Mihoshi said, regretfully. "He was helping
me out. He was doing really good, too, until he pulled all those
lightbulbs down."
"Is he hurt?" Tenchi asked.
"Um. Nope. But the manager did yell at him quite a bit."
Tenchi went into the back room and found Fluffy cowering in a
corner. "Fluffy?" He asked.
Fluffy looked up. WHen he recognized Tenchi, he leaped into the
boy's arms and nuzzled him, gratefully.
//What am miya...?// Fluffy wondered to himself //I...miya....
Police Cabbit... no.... I....miya...//
He was forgetting who he had been, This shook him quite badly.
He miya'ed, pathetically, and rested his little head on Tenchi's
chest and was soon fast asleep.
