Just to prove that I'm not dead:
The Intruder
A Tenchi Muyo fanfic by June "KaraOhki" Geraci
Tenchi Muyo doesn't belong to me. Just sort of borrowing some of the
characters.
Which Tenchi universe? (or does it matter?)
The intruder wouldn't normally go near this particular house but he
was very hungry, and something smelled good.
He got lucky. By following the lovely scent he found a sliding door
had
door that had
been left open a crack. He squeezed his small body through the
space and into the warmth and light of the house.
The kitchen turned out to be the source of the tempting aroma.
Hmm. I can't think of anywhere in the house where a 'tempting aroma' would
be, unless one was a fly, then the bathroom might qualify. ^_^
The
little creature jumped up onto the counter and walked over to the
stove. He immediately recognized the danger.
Given some of the cooks in this house, it could be any dish Ryouko or Aeka
try to make.
Extreme heat was coming
>from the area, and he couldn't get close enough to even glimpse what
was making it salivate.
'him' instead of 'it', since you've already identified him as male.

"What do you think you're doing? How DARE you change the channel!"
"Oh come on! How many times have you watched that stupid ballet?
Give me a break!"
Kiyone pulled a gun on Sasami. "Put that controller down, you bitch."
Well, it would have been a change of pace from Ryouko and Aeka, since we
already know that, since it's an argument, it's going to be them.
Ayeka grabbed the remote out of Ryoko's hand
See. ^_^
and switched the ballet
back on.
"At least it's better than that ridiculous space movie! With all the
places you've traveled to, have you ever seen anything like that?"
I think 'never' instead of 'ever' here, but I'm not sure.
A pair of small eyes watched as the two women fought over the remote.
During one tussle over it, a button was pushed and a different channel
was set. Peace instantly prevailed. Both women were mesmerized by
what was on the screen.
"I didn't know Casablanca was on!"
Heh. Never seen it myself, but from the women I know, it's always a good
choice.
"EEK!!!!!"
"A MOUSE!!!"
"Chu?"
Wahhhh! Not Chu-Chu! Anything but that! (Maybe Ryo-Ohki can eat him.)
"Now THIS is more like it." She reached into nothingness, and pulled
out a few cubes of cheese.
"Eat these, dear. Full of nutrition, and quite delicious. You'll get
a lot of energy out of this cheese."
Heh
Two others in the house had also been napping. The sounds of fighting
were too common to wake them. The sound of someone crashing through a
wall didn't even faze them. However, the scent of something that
didn't belong was enough to wake the smaller of the pair. She sat up,
sniffed the air, and started downstairs.
There was definitely an intruder in the house.
Hence, the title of the fic.
Ryo-Oh-Ki
Yay! Go Ryo-Oh-Ki.
Ryo-Oh-Ki had finally succeeded in cornering the mouse, but Sasami's
voice distracted her and it got away. For reasons it didn't
understand, it ran straight to Sasami and jumped onto her shoulder.
"Chu! Chu!"
"Oh, you're so CUTE!"
And then the mouse dug its fangs into Sasami's throat, ripping it out.
The quivering mouse allowed Ryo-Oh-Ki to sniff him, fully expecting to
be devoured. Instead, the cabbit sat back and tilted her head at him.
"Miyah!"
Boo. I wanted to see 'Ryo-Oh-Ki, Mouser at Large'
Tenchi returned from a visit to his aunt, and found Sasami in front of
the television with Ryo-Oh-Ki and a mouse in her lap. He started to
talk to her, but she shushed him. A glance at the screen told him
why. Never, ever talk to Sasami when Brian Boitano is skating.
Hehehehehe. Her anger would be greater than that of Ryouko and Aeka
combined.
"Oh no! What shall we do?" asked Mihoshi.
Tenchi thought fast. Really fast.
"It's going to take me some time to catch it, girls. Why don't you
spend the night with Grandpa? I'm sure he won't mind."
No. The letch probably wouldn't. (Since there's no Kiyone mentioned, I
assume it's the OVA universe)
"But, but!" protested Ryoko.
"Look, that thing is fast! You don't want to find it in your bed, do
you?"
Heh. Good move on Tenchi's part.
Cute little one hour work. Now do the next part of CoS. ^_^
