I wrote too much. :P

Leon

	Back in Washu's lab, Mackie, Tsunami, Yosho, and Leon waited.

	"How long do you think we have?" Leon asked.

	"They have joined the battle," Tsunami replied, "The Lord won't tell me 
anything else."

	"I hate waiting," Leon said.

	"Try waiting 700 years," Yosho said, calmly sipping tea.

Belldandy

	The goddesses entered the office of the chairman of Genom. Quincy sat 
at his desk.

	"I welcome you to Genom," he said, "I now understand who you are." He 
spun around a computer screen, on it were the files of Belldandy, Urd, 
Skuld, and Nene. "I am honored to greet the Norns and their guest."

	"You know why we're here. Mortals cannot have access to Yggdrasil," 
Belldandy said.

	Quincy smiled, "I agree, however, I am not a mortal."

	"Does everyone have deliouions of grandeur around here?" Urd asked.

	"You mean Largo? He's useful, like right now he's killing the Knight 
Sabers." Quincy smiled at Nene's intake of breath. "I have a higher goal 
to achieve. You Nene, were made a goddess by that fool Kami-sama," 
Quincy held up a hand, it was sheathed in black fire, "The Lord of Chaos 
granted me some power as well."

	"What does that mean?" Nene asked Belldandy.

	"He's a demon, and a powerful one," she replied.

Tenchi

	They were almost drained; a shot from one of the bazookas from one 
boomer had gotten trough Ayeka's force field enough to knock her 
unconscious. Tenchi and a rapidly tiring Ryoko stood guard over her. 
More boomers filled the passageway.

	"Tenchi?" Ryoko said.

	"Yes?" Tenchi replied, swinging his sword and slicing a boomer in two.

	"I love you," Ryoko said. She channeled her power into a blast that 
cleared the passage.  Then she too collapsed, "Take Ayeka and go," she 
said weakly.

	"No!" Tenchi said, "I'm not leaving any you."

	Behind him, 20 boomers took aim. Tenchi looked at them, determination 
in his eyes. The boomers fired, the hall went white.

Knight Sabers

	Linna was down, a blow form Largo had knocked her three feet into one 
of the support beams. Priss had her legs shattered. Even if they 
survived, it was doubtful that she would ever be able to walk with out 
cybernetics, and would never fight with the Knight Sabers again. Sylia 
had fought after that, trying not to worry about her teammates. Now her 
suit was damaged beyond repair, and her shins broken.

	Largo, Sylia realized, had been playing with us. Now he stood over 
Sylia. He griped her by her helmet and squeezed. The visor shattered, 
and Largo looked directly into her eyes.

	"So it ends," said. He drew back his hand.

Belldandy

	Quincy struck fast. A force bolt of darkness flew towards the 
goddesses. It was deflected off of a shield that Belldandy and Urd spoke 
into place with one word. The two sisters looked at each other and 
nodded.

	"Skuld, you Nene and Washu try to get back into Yggdrasil," Urd said 
firmly. "Belldandy and I will handle this bastered."

	Normally, Skuld would have protested being ordered around by Urd. This 
time she realized what her sisters were doing, what they were 
sacerficeing on the hope that Skuld could set things right.

	"All right, Oneesama," she said.

	Urd looked shocked, that was the first time Skuld has actually called 
her oldest sister by that title, "Will the wonders never cease?" she 
wondered.

	She and Belldandy joined hands, and sent a bright blue force beam at 
Quincy. 

	He laughed, "Is that the best you can do? I shall kill you, then your 
sister."

Kami-sama

	The realm of Kami-sama is a place filled with light, all from Kami-sama 
Himself. The realm of the Lord of Chaos is filled with darkness, all 
from itself.

	"They are loosing," the darkness said with satisfaction.

	"I know," Kami-sama said, "But random chance still may take a hand."

	The darkness smiled, "Chance is my servant."

	A grin appeared on Kami-sama's face, "True, but I think you hired it 
out to someone else."

	"What do you mean?" The Lord of Chaos asked.

	Kami-sama pointed to where a blond had gained access to a sealed room 
by accidentally squirting one of her drink packs into the access system, 
shorting it out.

	"Mihoshi," The Lord of Chaos sighed.

Mihoshi

	Mihoshi and Kiyone gained access to the OverMind control System, or the 
OMS.

	"What is this place?" Kiyone wondered out loud.

	Mihoshi wandered over to a large chair and sat down with a sigh. Her 
feet hurt. Leaning back, she came with in range of the sensors built 
into the head of the chair.

	"Um, Kiyone? What's this?" Mihoshi asked pointing to a screen that lit 
up.

	Kiyone read it quickly, "It says you can control the boomers from 
here." Then what she just said made it's way to her brain. "Mihoshi! 
Tell the boomers to stop fighting!"

	"Um, I don't�, Oh how about this Kiyone?" Mihoshi said.

Tenchi

	Protected with the Wings of the Light Hawk, Tenchi stood over Ryoko and 
Ayeka, daring the boomers to advance again. The boomers however had 
stopped. The looked like they were waiting for something.

	The boomers started singing.

The song was one that Tenchi recognized as one that Mihoshi and Kiyone 
like to sing at Karaoke bars.

	"Mihoshi," Tenchi sighed, a sweat drop forming on the back of his head.

Knight Sabers

	'Goodbye Nene, take good care of Mackie' Sylia thought as Largo's fist 
drew back. Sylia was determined not to close her eyes, she would face 
her death bravely.

	Largo halted, seeming to savor the moment. But as the moments passed, 
Sylia realized that somehow she had been saved. Then Largo started to 
sing. He was worse than Nene was when she got drunk that one time. Sylia 
found that she was unable to escape Largo's grip.

	"Maybe I better rethink that thought about being saved," she winced as 
Largo hit a very off key, note.

The Goddesses of Debugging

	The battle between Quincy and Belldandy and Urd raged in the 
background. Skuld, Nene, and Washu, the most skilled minds when it came 
to computers hardly noticed. To them, all attention was focused on two 
words on their screens.

	'Access denied.'

	All the tricks that they knew where worthless, Skuld's inside knowledge 
of Yggdrasil was unable to gain them access to the system.

	The three looked at each other.

	"I'm out of ideas," Skuld said.

	"So am I," Washu said. "For the first time in 20,000 years, I don't 
know what to do."

	They looked at Nene, she shook her head, "I don't know what to do 
either."

	Skuld noticed something on Nene's hardsuit, "Nene, what are those 
probes for?" she asked.

	"For hacking into�. Closed�. Systems�. Skuld, I'm going to buy you as 
much ice-cream as you can eat!" Nene exclaimed, and shot her probes at 
the computer.

	"Do they actually make that much?" Washu asked Skuld.

Nene

	Nene felt something strange when her probes connected with the 
computer. Something like what happened when Largo tried to invade her 
mind, but not quite. That was forced, almost like a mental rape. This 
was gentle, someone was asking permission.

	Nene opened her mind. 

	She stood on a gray plain. Around her were shapes, and sounds that she 
couldn't quite identify, but they were familiar. Ahead of her, a woman 
appeared. She was beautiful. She was an older lady, but carried the 
weight of her years as a sort of a jewel. She also looked like Tsunami.

	"Who are you?" Nene asked.

	"Yggdrasill," the other lady replied.

	"The computer?" Nene wondered.

	The Lady smiled at the young goddess, "No, I am the sprit of the World 
Tree. You have met my daughter, Tsunami."

	"Can you help us?" Nene asked desperately.

	"I cannot restore the time line," she said, "Only the Norns can do 
that."

	"But�"

	"I can, young goddess, give them back their access, and take away the 
evil one's."

	"Thank you Lady Yggdrasill," Nene said bowing.

	"Thank you, Lady Nene, for making my youngest care taker happy," 
Yggdrasill said, fading from view.

	Nene slammed back into her own body. Looking around wildly Nene noticed 
something odd, Quincy was frozen, so was Washu. The Norns were not.

	Looking at Quincy angrily, Urd spoke up.

	"Yggdrasil, this is system administrator Urd, Goddess of the Past and 
cupid of love, authorization, Urd765."

	Belldandy also spoke,  "Yggdrasil, this is system maintainer Belldandy, 
Goddess of the Present and Nature, authorization, Belldandy902."

Skuld fixed Quincy with a look of hatred, "Yggdrasil, this is system 
designer Skuld, Goddess of the Future. Authorization, Skuld232."

The screen on the desk printed these words, 'Accepted, awaiting final 
authorization.'

>From nowhere came a voice, "Yggdrasil, this is Kami-sama, authorization 
Alpha-Omega."

'New time loop started, effects will be felt in 5 seconds.' Yggdrasil 
reported.

5

Mihoshi was running out of songs for the boomers to sing.

4

Tenchi, supporting Ryoko and Ayeka, moved down the hall, killing boomers 
that got in his way.

3

Sylia had managed to get out of Largo's grasp, and had pulled herself 
over to Priss.

Priss had been trying to cover her ears to block out the sound of the 
still singing Largo.

"His god speech was better than this," she said to Sylia.

2

"What's happening?" Leon demanded of Tsunami.

"Yggdrasill said that the time line was being restored to normal."

1

"So what are we going to do with him and Largo?" Nene asked Skuld and 
the now unfrozen Washu.

"I was thinking of a nice pit somewhere," Skuld said.

"I think I got a better idea," Washu said. She leaned over and whispered 
it to the two goddesses.

	"I LOVE IT!" Skuld and Nene said together.

"New time line started," Yggdrasill said. Kami-sama nodded. He looked 
over at the Lord of Chaos and raised a brow, "Game," He said, "I believe 
you owe me something."

The darkness grumbled, but got to its feet and started to sing 'Mad 
Machine' it was much better than Largo. 

They had gathered at the top of the Tower. It was unfinished once more. 
Below them spread MegaTokyo, back to what it was originally. The wounds 
were healed, and armor repaired.

"It's like it never happened," Ryoko said.

"It never did," Belldandy replied.

Tenchi looked out at the dawn that was rising, "Let's go home."

	Back at Washu's lab, Nene flew into Mackie's arms. No one made fun of 
them. But that was because they were too busy looking at Priss and Leon.

	Leon had given Priss a bear hug when she emerged from the porthole. 
Priss returned it.

	Linna started to speak about this amazing turn of events, but Sylia 
tapped her on the shoulder and shook her head.

	It was in this touching moment that Mihoshi asked, "What's to eat?"

	Everyone face faulted.

	Later after a dinner that Belldandy and Sasami made, Tenchi, Sylia, and 
Belldandy where sitting together talking.

	"I'm still not sure what happened to Quincy and Mason," Belldandy said.

	"Didn't they get erased with the time line?" Tenchi asked.

	Belldandy shook her head, "No, They were too powerful, history had been 
restored, and everything set right, but those two should have still been 
there. Powerless, but still there."

	Mihoshi's giggling interrupted the talk. The Galaxy Police detective 
had been watching cartoons on TV.

	The trio wandered over to see what was so funny.

	On the screen, a man in a suit was running on a treadmill, while an 
older white hared man looked out of some bars.

	The one on the treadmill stopped at looked at the other one, "Gee 
Quincy, what are we going to do tonight?" he asked.

	Quincy turned to face him, "The same thing we do every night Mason. Try 
to take over the world!"

	"Skuld," Belldandy said.

	"Nene," Sylia said, covering her forehead with her hand.

	"Washu," Tenchi sighed. "Do you think it was a major blunder to let 
those three get together?"

	Belldandy and Sylia nodded.

	On screen the chorus chimed in singing, "they're Mason, they're mason 
and Quincy, Quincy, Quincy, Quincy, Quincy, Quincy, Quincy, NARF!"

	Mihoshi laughed.

	The Knight Sabers and the goddess were about ready to return home. Nene 
was saying goodbye to her friends.

	"I'll miss you, I promise I'll come back to visit," she said with tears 
in her eyes.

	Priss hugged her, "You better, or, or, or I'll let Mackie start taking 
more photos."

	A beam of light streaked from the sky and impacted on the ground. 

	"What does it say?" Tenchi asked Belldandy.

	"It says, 'Nene is granted her license, and is awarded the status of a 
class two, category two goddess, also she is assigned to MegaTokyo until 
she finishes her instructions to get me a snow globe with Genom Towers 
in it. So I have spoken.' Looks like you get to go back to MegaTokyo 
after all Nene," Belldandy said. But Nene didn't hear her, she was too 
busy cheering and kissing Mackie.
