In a house, somewhere in the country, a young man was lying on a couch, reading a comic 
book. He had dark brown hair, which was mostly covered by a red cap. He had brown eyes and had 
fairly light skin. He was wearing a red T-shirt over an unbuttoned plaid blue shirt and some 
blue jeans. He also had some headphones on and was listening to a portable CD player. Outside 
however, there was an explosion that was even louder then his headphones. It was so big that his 
house shook slightly. Jin quickly took off his headphones and stood up.

	"Man! I was trying to relax and it happens again!!" He stomped over to the window and 
looked outside towards the noise. He growled slightly. "I don't need this...." He walked over 
and grabbed his wallet and keys. "I think it's about time....I see what the hell is goin' 
on...." He quickly left his house and began walking along the dirt path though a nearby forest. 
Jin sighed. "I really should have done this sooner.... Oh well, better late than never...." He 
put on his headphones again and continued to walk the path while listening to his music.

	Meanwhile Ryoko walked down the path, a large jug of sake dangling behind her. "Ah! Sake 
tastes so good this time of day!" She purred, as she began to float.... Not noticing the man in 
front of her... Which could see a woman happily floating past him...

	The tail on her dress swished happily, as she hummed forevermore.

	Jin stopped in his tracks and blinked. He turned back around and looked at the woman who 
just floated past him. He blinked again, then waved a hand in front of his face. "Okay....I 
don't think I'm going crazy...." He said to himself. He then walked up to the woman and reached
up and poked her shoulder.

	"Nanda?" Ryoko asked, floating to the ground and raising an eyebrow.  She tilted her 
head slightly, cyan hair slightly falling onto her face, her spiky hair falling in back of her. 

	"I don't have all day." She placed a hand on her hip, sighing.

	"Um.... Well...." Jin fumbled with his words a little, still confused on what exactly 
was happening there. "Do you by any chance live around here? There have been some loud 
explosions coming from around her for a while and I was wondering if you knew what they were,"
He sweatdropped slightly as he continued. "And exactly how are you floating in mid air....?"

	Ryoko nodded. "I live with Tenchi, he loves me!" She sighed happily. "Why do you wanna 
know? And wha-?" She sweatdropped. Right. Tenchi didn't want anyone to know about that... 
"Your eyes are playing tricks on you!" She accused, pointing a finger at him.

	Jin blinked and replied, "Well, that's what I thought....but then why did I feel you
when I poked you?"

	"I uh Ano.. You didn't check if my feet where on the ground, baka!" Ryoko cried, 
sweatdrop largening.

	Jin blinked, looked down at her feet, then looked back at her. "Okay fine! So I worded 
it wrong.... My Japanese isn't exactly perfect....but I know what I saw!! And you were 
floating!!!"

	"Lair!" Ryoko cried, grabbing the collar of his shirt. "Y-o-o s-a-w n-o-t-h-i-ng!" she 
said forcefully.

	Jin narrowed his eyes at her. "Hey, I'm not the one half-drunk from sake here.... I 
know what I saw and I'm not saying otherwise...." He stuck out arm to the side and a dark red 
glow was emitted from his hand. Then he generated a staff of energy and smirked slightly at her.
"Don't do something you'll regret...."

	"What the hell?!" Cried Ryoko, falling back ,her own energy sword already in hand. "You 
don't know who you're messing with, asshole!" She screamed at him, eyes narrowing. "Where are 
you from? Normal people don't throw those swords around!"

	Jin rolled his eyes. "First, it's a staff. Second, who said anything about throwing 
it? And third....who said I was normal....?" Jin looked at Ryoko's energy sword and rubbed his 
chin with his free hand. "Hmm.... It's similar to mine....but it's just energy.... Not emotion
energy.... Interesting...." He looked to Ryoko's face and his staff dissipated as quickly as it 
appeared. "Look, from what I know, I'm from Earth.... Okay, we got on the wrong foot....I was
a little preoccupied with something else...." Jin refixed his red cap and smiled. "The name's
Jin....yours?"

	Ryoko made her sword go away a bit reluctently, floating yet again. "My name.. Is 
Ryoko." She told him, taking out her sake and taking a quick swig. "But really, if i don't 
hurry, Tenchi will be gone!" And with that, she turned to go.

	Mayuka peddled faster, knowing she was late to meet daddy. Mayuka bounded the curb, 
ignoring the chunk of ground that wrinkled up as she turned. Mayuka's eyes widened and saw 
someone in the middle of her path.

	" Look out!"

	Jin was about to reply when he heard a ringing of a bicycle bell and a screech of 
tires-mixed with a scream. Jin turned, and found himself on the ground, tire tracks adorning his 
clothing. 

	Mayuka stopped the bicycle, looking behind her. A rather large sweatdrop collected as 
she viewed the wreckage she had made. 

	"Gomen! I didn't see you there!" Mayuka said, getting off her bicycle to help the 
stranger up.

	Jin twitched slightly, then slowly sat up. "Is the hurting....over?" He shook head and
rubbed it. "It's....alright.... I'm okay...."

	Ryoko looked back with a sweatdrop. "M-Mayuka! Watch where you're going!" She called to 
the girl, then smiled. She wondered what she would ever do without her still there..

	Jin slowly stood up and rubbed the back of his head. "Ow.... Today just isn't my 
day...." Jin turned and smiled at Mayuka. "Thanks anyway...."

	Ryoko sweatdropped at the two, then slowly grabbed Maukya's arm. "Listen chick, we gotta 
get home, you can take your 'friend' with you or whatever, but.... You know..." 

	She wanted to see tenchi.

	Mayuka smiled at Ryoko.
 
	"Oh don't worry Ryoko! You'll see daddy in no time, then you can confess your love to 
him!"  Mayuka said, looking up, eyes shining. And she gave a small sigh and smile.
 
	"How romantic! Though I wonder what Ayeka would think! I bet she'd be swept off her 
feet!"

	Ryoko blushed in surprise, unintentally. "A-Yeah! You bet chick!" Replyed Ryoko to her 
'student' . She had did what she had promised she would when Mayuka was reborn... She was 
training her. She smiled widly. "And wouldn't ya be happy if you daddy said yes? She coxed, 
walking over and putting an arm around her shoulder. "Don't tell me you wouldn't!"

	Jin blinked at the two and scratched his head. "Uh.... Can someone tell me what's going 
on....?"

	Mayuka was about to reply to Ryoko when she looked down at Jin. Mayuka laughed 
nervously, one hand behind her head as she laughed away her nervousness.

	"I'm sorry! Ryoko was just kidding! I mean, she REALLY wouldn't flat out tell Daddy 
that she lov-" Mayuka stopped short, something taking her attention away..again.

	Ryoko blinked. Then blinked again. "Care to repeat that girly?" She asked, almost 
cheek to cheek with the girl. "Come on, I've taken care of you before you could remember! And 
all the princess ever did was whine about changing you're diapears!" She grinned in tripumth to 
the girl now, laughing a bit.

	Mayuka only smiled. 

	"Wai!" she exclaimed. "But I remember a rather angry Ryoko putting me up a tree once!" 
She said, but still smiling. "But I'm some good, ne?" She added, a bit wondrous, looking back 
at what caught her attention, looking somewhat disappointed.

	Ryoko only tilted her head. "Mauyka?" She asked a bit worried.

	Jin sweatdropped slightly. "Um.... Anyway.... Are....we going to stay here all day....?"

	Meanwhile, as all this was happening, a strange event took place at Funaho. Several 
small sparks of energy appeared. This continued for a few moments, until the sparks finally 
formed one straight stream. This stream became many, and then, a figure appeared. Daneux 
brushed his silvery hair away from his hazel-green eyes and looked at his surroundings. "Did 
I make it?", he thought to himself as he wandered about the woods aimlessly. The thought 
then came upon him to use his pocket computer and find out. This he does. "Dammit! The wrong 
universe. Great, now I'm out of energy and stuck here." He sighs. "Best find a place to 
stay." He wanders around a bit more, eventually coming to the house. Not really noticing any 
activity nearby (mostly from the lack of energy), he just walks in, leaving the door standing 
wide open, drops face-first onto the couch and falls asleep, not really knowing (or caring, 
for that matter) if anyone is already there.

	Deep in the forest , Trevor opens her eyes. " Where am i?". She sits up and looks 
around. All around her are large trees and green brush. She is wearing a white sleevless 
turtleneck and a black tie. She is also wearing a pair of black shorts and motorcycle boots. 
The blue star under her eye shines in the sun, poking through the trees. Trying to remember 
what had happened, she laid on her back and stared up at the blue sky. " I was traveling to my 
next gig and then...THATS RIGHT!!! I WAS BLOWN OUT OF THE SKY!! DAMN ASTEROIDS!!!!!!. Trevor 
jumped up off the ground and brushed her black and white hair behind her ears. '"But where am 
I now?". Trevor pushes a finger into her right arm, and a silver attachment quickly appears. 
It has flashing blue buttons and reaches from her wrist to her shoulder. " Chimera" she says, 
speaking to the attachment, " Location check". After a few bleeps and buzzes a mechanical 
voice says, " Water planet, with large patches of land stretching for miles. High population 
count of organic life forms." Trevor grumbled, " Yeah but does it have a name?" she asks 
growing quickly irritated. " None in the database." She laughs.." Perfect. Stuck on an alien 
planet. Oh well." She shrugs her shoulders and begins to walk through the forest. After an 
hour, Trevor is pooped and collapses to the ground." High population count of organic life 
forms my ass!" She feels something hard poking her in the back, and picks up a carrot. She 
looks at it curiously, and all of a sudden hears a rumbling in the bushes. Trevor points the 
chimera in the direction of the rumbling  and hits the charge button. Ryo-oki hops out of the 
bushes and stares at Trevor. The little cabbit is scared at first, but sees the carrot in 
Trevors hand, and immediatly becomes socialable. Ryo-oki hops over to Trevor and sits in 
her lap. Trevor smiles and gives the carrot to Ryo-oki. " Here little guy. Hey wanna see a 
trick?" she asks. Ryo-oki stares at Trevor in waiting. Trevor closes her right hand and opens 
it revealing three white balls. She to juggles them, and ryo-oki meows in enjoyment. After 
the performance trevor asks " Can you take me to other people?"

	Ryo-oki meows again and heads back through the bushes. Trevor follows close behind and 
runs out of the forest into a dirt path that leads down to a small house by the water. Ryo-oki 
stops and looks at Trevor. " Here we go." trevor says a loud, and slowly makes her way to the 
house.

	The trail was quite peaceful until a blue-haired man stumbled onto the path, a pack 
of rabid meat-eating squirrels hot on his trail.

	Already in 4th gear, he peeled down the path, unknowingly headed towards Trevor. 
"I... *gasp* Didn't... *gasp* Mean to!" Came a winded apology.

	Suddenly he stopped, Pulling a small rod from his cloak. "Ok then... you leave me 
no choice..."

	He flips the rod into the air, willing it to change, and catches a... butter knife. 
"FEEL THE WRATH OF MY... hey." The squirrels look on in mild amusement as he franticly 
swings the tool about.

	"My... spork? No... electric razor! Ah uhm... my swiss-army knife? Twinkie? Ginsu? 
Lightsaber? My... hey wait. Go back."

	By this time the squirrels have cleared the area, wanting to avoid further 
entanglement with this particular person. But, adamantly, the man continues to swing his 
'weapon' about in a fierce manner.

	"Now i've got it! Fear my..." He pulls the rod behind his head and... falls over. 
"... really... heavy... sword..."

	He looks up from the ground to see someone heading towards him. "If she laughs I'm 
gonna... uh... maybe get up first."

	Ryoko glared. This was... Dumb. "I jsut wanna go home and drink my Sake."  She 
replied, before taking the young Mayuka's arm and begining to her her back. "Mayuka-Chan! I 
think i will share with you, if you are nice.." She finished with a smirk.

	Jin blinked, then quickly went after the two. "Hey! Wait for me!"

	"Who are you followin'?" Asked Ryoko with a raised eyebrow. "I didn't invite you,"

	Mayuka giggled.

	"He wants a few swallows of Sake too!" she exclaimed. " Now there'll be more merry 
people. C'mon!" Mayuka snaked one arm around one of Jin's, and the other with Ryoko, and 
started to merrily walk on the path..

	Ryoko laughed. "Well then, but only if he gets his own! I can't afford everyone!" She 
winked at that.

	Trevor heard the commotion approaching her form behind and quickly spun around.

	She hit the charge button on the chimera again, and waited. A few odd looking squireels 
came out of some bushes on the path. " What the hell?" She heard voices coming from the path 
and ducked behind a tree. " Finally, some people. But who?"

	Trevor couldn't deny that she was nervous. Her stomach made a loud grumbling sound as 
she hid.

	Aeka wandered through the front hall, carrying a tray of plates piled high. The house 
was silent, except for the occasional twittering of birds outside and the noise of the others 
moving through the house. Of course, she thought to herself, I am the only one responsible for 
keeping the house clean. 

	Her attention was caught by a strong breeze coming from the front door - which she saw 
was wide open. She inhaled sharply as she saw a trail of large muddy footprints leading in and 
towards the couch in the hallway - to reveal some scruffy character fast asleep. She screamed, 
dropping all the plates with a tremendous clatter. 

	'Aeka? What's wrong?' cried Sasami, running into the hallway from the next room. She 
was quickly followed by Washu, Mihoshi and the others in the house. They followed Aeka's gaze 
to the sleeping stranger, and a great murmer of curiosity arose. 

	'Isn't that great?' Mihoshi chirped, delighted, 'Anyone can just drop by and make 
themselves at home!'. 

	'What are you talking about?!' barked Aeka. Her face was livid with rage. 'We can't 
just let anyone in to our house! You don't know where they've been!!! And look at the mess 
he's made! He looks like a criminal!' 

	Ignoring the shattered plates on the floor, she stepped over to the couch and poked 
the stranger roughly in the ribs - who was looking decidedly uncomfortable at the crowd 
gathered around him.

	'Who are you, and what are you doing here?' the princess demanded.

	Daneux snapped awake when he heard the plates hitting the floor and Aeka's scream. 
"Terrific. Daneux, the B&E perp.", he thinks to himself. When Aeka begins poking him in the 
ribs, he just glares back at her. Finally, he replies "I was about to ask you the same 
thing." He sat up, shook his head a bit, and gave the royal pain an answer. "I'm Dan, and I 
thought the house was unoccupied, so I figured 'Why not just drop on the couch and rest up 
after...ehm...your trip...'". That was one of the things he was taught: never reveal too much 
about yourself unless absolutely necessary. Cloud your identity in half-truths. These are 
just some of the basic things he learned during his training.

	Just then, Ryoko zoomed in with the party behind her. "Hey Princess!" She callewd out 
slyly, then sat next to the new guest. "Who's the new boyfriend?" She asked with a wink.

	Aeka span round.

	'She is not my boyfriend, Ms Ryoko!!! He is most probably a criminal, like you! I'm 
sure you too would much prefer talking to each other!!!'

	Tenchi rubbed his head in embarresment. He wasn't used to his guests being treated 
so rudely - even if they were uninvited. 'But Aeka...' 

	'Yeah! You must think it really funny to be greeted by the grouchy old maid of the 
house!! After all, you are our guests and everything!!' Mihoshi butted in...

	Aeka was slowly turning a deep, deep red....

	Ryoko laughed mercilcly at this. "Aeka, why don't you take him.." She began, taking 
him by the shirt and appearing with him next to her. "I Mean, come on, you do look so cute 
together!" With that she then went to tenchi, curling around him sudecively.

	Daneux's eyes widen as he is shoved into this strange woman. He quickly backs up, 
not wanting her to get any ideas.

	Before arguments got worse, Mayuka gave a sharp ear splitting whistle.

	"R-Y-oko! The Sake is W-A-I-T-ing!" she emphisized, eyes glittering. The biggest 
entertainment for Mayuka nowadays, was seeing Ryoko drunk.

	"Your right you're right!" replyed Ryoko, shoving the newcomer into Aeka and floating 
to Mauyka. "Shall we then?"

	Daneux's eyes widen as he is shoved into this strange woman. He quickly backs up, not 
wanting her to get any ideas.'

	Aeka's smouldering frame turned an even brighter red as she moved away from the 
stranger. 'How dare you -' she stammered, before slipping on the pieces of broken china 
underfoot. There was a brief flash of wildly shrieking purple and red, before a shattering 
thud was heard in the hallway.'

	Trevor made her way slowly to the house. She heard the loud commotion coming through 
the open front door, and her curiousity got the better of her. she crept up onto the doorstep 
and peeked inside just as aeka fell. Trevor couldn't help but burst out into a hysterical 
laughter that lasted for three minutes. She felt ters well up, and she was on the porch holding 
her stomach from laughter. " In all my years of performing, i don't think i have ever seen 
anything as funny as that!!!" she began to clap, and stood up, Sauntering into the house.'

	Sasami rushed to help her sister. Bits of shattered white china slid from Aeka's robes 
and fell to the floor. 

	Aeka held her head, groaning slightly. The sounds of laughter made her blush, as she 
staggered to sit down on the couch.'

	Trevor hopped on the couch, without even acknowledgeing the others in the house. She 
curled up right next to Aeka. " That was great!! Could you do that again?" She had a big grin 
on her face. Trevor had chosen her favourite person in the house without even meeting the rest. 
Ryo-ohki jumped onto Trevor's shoulder and meowed. " HI little one!!" Trevor squealed, 
seemingly totally losing interest in the embaressed princess.

	Daneux wasn't exactly sure what was going on. All that he knew was that he was in a 
house full of crazy people, and that he was still low on energy. He sighed, wishing that Trevor 
would get off the couch so he could go back to sleep.

	Ryoko.... Laughed. Laughed so hard she cried. "Mayuka-Chan, go get some Sake! We will 
drink it here so we have sumthin' to laugh at!" She was so intertained.

	Jin sweatdropped slightly and turned to Mayuka. "Is there always a lot of people 
here....?"

	Mayuka sweatdropped, totally out of the frenzy before her. She disappeared and 
reappeared a minute later-a bottle of Sake in her hand, and a couple of glasses.
 
	"Since everyone is in such a great mood.." She started

	"Ah! Good girl! Poor me some, would ya?" She asked as she floated, her arms around 
a blushing tenchi.  She patted Mayuka's head.. Almost motherly.  "Well then, just watch me 
and learn how its done!" '

	Aeka rubbed her head. It was all a bit too much for her - not just falling over, 
but falling over in front of all these strangers. How humiliating.

	She looked up as Tenchi's grandfather greeted the strangers - 'You must have all 
come a long way. I'm sure you're all very tired.' he said, smiling at Daneux. 

	'Yes...yes. How about I make some tea?' she said quickly, gathering her composure. 
What with Ryoko getting drunk and the pieces of broken china on the floor, at least someone 
had to mantain a shred of decency. Aeka quickly brushed away the wreckage and headed for the 
kitchen.

	Daneux gave Yoshou (assuming that this is somewhat true to form) a puzzled look. 
"Why is that old man smiling at me?", he thought to himself. "Does he know....no. There is 
no possible way he could know about me. Best to just not think of it." He then looked to all 
the broken dishes on the floor. He considers using his telekenisis to put the pieces back 
together, but dismisses it when he remembers that there are others in the room.

	Jin blinked, then walked after Aeka towards the kitchen. He poked his head into the 
door and looked to Aeka. "Hey, are you alright? That fall must have hurt some...."

	Ryoko only smirked, whispering to the princess. "I think you've gotta crussshhhhh.."

	Mayuka blinked, looking at everyone.

	"Errr...dad, why are there so many people here at once? A phenomenon indeed!" The people 
who knew Mayuka paused. It was rare Mayuka said any words bigger than five letters. Mayuka 
toyed with one of her ponytails, bored.

	Tenchi sweatdropped slightly. "Ah well, it's not the fact that there's a lot of people
here.... It's mostly because they're new people...."

	Jin blinked, then raised an eyebrow at Ryoko as she whispered something to Aeka. Then 
realized what she probably said. He blushed slightly and turned his head away a little bit. 
"It's not like that at all.... I was just worried, ya know....?"

	Ryoko only smiled, well more smirked... "Like *what*?" She then asked.

	Jin blinked again, then quickly turned around and started to walk off. "Nevermind...."

	Tenchi quickly walked up and put a hand on Jin's shoulder. "Don't mind Ryoko, she's 
just teasing...."

	Jin turned to Tenchi and smiled slightly. "I know.... Hey, my name's Jin, what's 
yours?"

	"Tenchi," Tenchi held out his hand to Jin.

	Jin smiled again and shook Tenchi's hand. "Nice to meet ya Tenchi,"

	Mayuka grinned, then whispered to Ryoko.

	"Jin's a hottie, ne? Aiy! But what will we do with all these people?"

	Ryoko grinned and replyed back. "Ah, my dear, you might have competion,and not 
from me!" She laughed at this, then grabbed Tenchi's arm, still speaking with Mayuka. 
"We'll find some way to deal with everyone, anyway... THey didn't say they'd stay. HEY! 
Maybe this means i can share Tenchi's room!!"

	Trevor sat up realizing that she was not going to get any sleep with all the 
commotion going on in the house. She smiled. Somethings were on her mind and she intended 
on being heard by someone in this crazy house. She stood up and snapped her fingers. A loud
BOOM rang through the house..... she jumped up on the couch and smiled. "Now if I could 
have everyone's attention! I hate to be rude..it's not in my nature but I figured that was 
the only way to get your attention. Look I am an interstellar space performer.....my name is 
Trevor. I was on my way to a performance when my ship smashed into an asteroid and sent me 
spiraling to this little planet. since I don't have the parts to fix my little ship I am 
stuck here."
