He had not originally come here to take advantage of Mihoshi. He just wanted to learn more about her. He had only used the voice on her to get her to open up more, but his initial success had made him loose his cool and he told her to strip.
Now Mihoshi was not only totally naked, but also totally unaware that there was anything wrong with being naked in his presence. She acted like it was completely normal. And to make matters worse she was currently hugging him from behind and showing him pictures of her past at the Galaxy Police.
Tenchi was just about to do *something* to or about Mihoshi, when what she was saying penetrated his hormone fogged mind.
" ... was my partner on the Ionian mission. I had real fun working with him, but he did not want to continue being my partner either when they let him out of the hospital....": Mihoshi pointed out a hologram of a person wearing a GP-Uniform.
There was something wrong about the tone Mihoshi was using.
Mihoshi pressed a button on the frame of the hologram and the picture changed to a different GP-uniformed person.
"We were only partnered for a very short time, but I really felt that we were connecting, you know. But than one day she suddenly requested a transfer," Mihoshi explained sinffing slightly.
Could it be that Mihoshi was crying? Could these people she was talking about have done something that would make bubbly cheerful Mihoshi sad?
"After that they had me working solo for a while. Chief Inspector Dreyfus said that *sniff* nobody wanted to work with me *sniff* and that I was a menace to society *sniff* and, ... and that I was a disgrace to my Uniform." Mihoshi was crying openly at this point.
Tenchi could not belive it. All Mihoshi had ever wanted was to be a GP-officer. All her live had revolved around the GP. And these Idiots had the nerve to say things like that to her?
Without any concern about her current lack of clothes Tenchi turned around and scooped Mihoshi up in his lap hugging her close to himself.
"Mihoshi...," he began.
"You don't think I am a menace, do you Tenchi?" a tearful Mihoshi interrupted him. "I am not a bad cop, am I?"
"Of course not Mihoshi. You are the best Galaxy Police officer I have ever met." he tried to reassure.
But Mihoshi hardly listened to him.
"Nobody ever wants to stay close to me. They all quit or transfer or try to get rid of me somehow. They say that I am useless and that I'm dumb and that I bring bad luck. Everybody leaves me" Mihoshi was bawling at this point and Tenchi drew her closer.
"Mihoshi listen to me: You are not useless. You are a good person. You are a god cop no matter what some people might say. And I for one won't leave you." And then because he was getting kind of desperate he added using the Voice again: ""You have to belive this!" "I won't leave you! I won't give up on you! I will stand by you!"
"You will?" Mihoshi was rapidly calming down. "Yes, You will! Oh, Tenchi!" only to start crying again.
But Tenchi could tell that it were now tears of you as the squealing Mihoshi hugged him tighter.
It took several moments for Mihoshi to calm down again to something close to normal as Tenchi reassuringly patted her on her back.
"Do you really think I am a good policewoman?" Mihoshi wanted to know.
"Well you did track down the dreaded pirate Ryoko." Tenchi tried half jokingly.
"That did not count. I never actually got to arrest Ryoko," Mihoshi protested. She obviously took her cops/robbers relationship with Ryoko far more seriously than Tenchi had previously suspected.
"What about rescuing Washu from Kagato's ship?" Tenchi brought up what he thought to be a good example of Mihoshi doing a good job.
"I did that by accident." Mihoshi was not that easily convinced.
"You have kept this entire solar-system safe. Your superiors must really trust you if they put the safety of the Juraian princesses under your personal watch. They would not give such an important job to just anybody, would they?" Tenchi was reaching here a bit, as he really did not understood himself why they let Mihoshi shoulder this task alone. Maybe they thought, not without good reason, that Aeka and Sasami were perfectly capable of taking care of their own protection.
Mihoshi seemed to accept this reasoning. "But nothing ever happens here on earth and I haven't even done any real police work in a while. What if I am loosing my edge?" After a moment she added a bit of panic creeping into her voice: "What if I make a mistake and something bad happens on my watch? What if some evil criminal sneaks in and kills everybody? I will never get promoted if the planet gets blown up while it was under my protection!"
"I am sure you will do fine. And there are not really all that many intergalactic criminals on earth." Tenchi replied both to excuse her lack of recent work experience and to play down the chances of Mihoshi's career being endangered by the destruction of his homeplanet.
The girl appeared to consider this for a bit, so Tenchi added quickly: "How about I help you in your training, to keep you from becoming to rusty?"
"You would? Nobody wanted to train with me anymore after those incidents at the shooting range." Mihoshi informed him disbelievingly.
"I would!" Tenchi assured her. "And I am sure the other would help, too.
Mihoshi squealed happily and hugged him closer making Tenchi suddenly very aware again, that he had a naked girl in his lap. Tenchi really liked to see Mihoshi back to her bubbly normal self. And he would gladly take the risk of training with her if it meant seeing her happy. He would even be willing to use the secrets of the book to get the other girls to play along if they did not want to particpate.
"And during training you might even get a chance to make the arrest of Ryoko, that you never got to make for real" Visions of the girls playing cops and robbers flitted through Tenchi's mind - complete with handcuffs and strip-searches. "Which of your old partners could claim to have taken down someone of Ryoko's caliber even if it was only during play?" He added with a smile.
Mihoshi seemed to really like this idea.
His perverted thoughts and the fact that he had a very happy, very beautiful and very grateful girl in his lap threatend to overwhelm him once more and so he finally made to excuse himself.
With reassurances, that everything would work out he finally left Mihoshi to her unfinished paperwork. Closing the door behind him, he would have the rest of the house for himself until:
