OVA 4?! (A Rough draw)

(After doing some research into the story, seeing as I didn’t watch GXP) I came to the conclusion to start the OVA directly after Seina’s wedding. Immediately following the events of GXP. After the reception, a few old characters mentioned, they head back home where Tennyo(I know, a pretty much horrible character, but bear with all this) wishes to speak to Tenchi. She wants to talk about his future plans since his coming of age is here, and what he will do. This further leads to the question he hoped he wouldn’t have to answer, which girl did he want. He and Tennyo go on a walk as they talk about how he felt about Ayeka and Ryoko, and their past trials and tribulations. Tenchi ended up leading them to Ryoko’s cave, which always brought him warmth and comfort in times of stress. The truth comes out that he actually loves both of them(this may be weird but keep reading, things do change.)

He cant have them both however. Jurai will not accept Ryoko there as a queen, nor will Ayeka turn her back on her people. They barely would let Tenchi rule due to his Earthing blood. He doesn’t want to tell one but not the other, because of it hurting the one he didn’t tell, or the person he did tell, flaunting it.

He does end up telling them both how he feels at the same time. They both don’t hate each other for it, in fact, the arguments and fights died down a bit afterwards. Washu makes preparations and then Sasami and Noike(I only use her twice, don’t worry, I just have to work with what was given.) cook a celebratory dinner for the three. In the celebrating, Katsuhito has a grim expression, which causes Tenchi to worry. Katsuhito then says “If you think you can protect these women, then duel me at the shrine tomorrow, if you win, you have my blessing. If you lose, you have no reason to celebrate. He then leaves. Tenchi is engulfed in worry since he had never beaten his Grandfather, and that was when his Grandfather didn’t use his full power.

Ryoko wonders to herself a bit later, “If only we had more time.” Something clicks. She heads to Washu to ask for something to compress time, Washu creates a dimension that is exactly the same as the Masaki home, except with no one in it. A year in this dimension is 8 hours here, just the right time Ryoko and Ayeka need to train Tenchi to win against his Grandfather. They bring Tenchi into the Dimension.

Training goes on for a good 10 months within the training dimension. Throughout this time, Tenchi’s skill get better, his reflexes quicker. He learned tactic rather than instinct. One thing, he had to learn how to control the lighthawk wings at will. Ayeka suggests that he created them before due to life threatening danger or stress, like the fight with Kagato, the Blackhole, the fight with Z. Ryoko gives Tenchi a mental picture of her about to be killed by Kagato and he is able to control the lighthawk wings at will. (seems anti-climactic but with the way I’ll script it, it will work well.)

They do get intimate towards the end of the stay. Tenchi ends up marrying both of them (again may be weird but keep reading.)

While they were in there trouble was stirring in the real world. A mysterious force (no name, want to reference the manga for a guy, even if it isnt like his story Arc) seeks to absorb energy to sustain his life and power. And he seeks out the Masaki home for Washu and her hidden power. Ryoko, Ayeka, and Tenchi come out as this standoff is underway and a fight ensues. It doesnt last long before the figure challenges Tenchi to a duel. Tenchi accepts so that no one will get hurt, he goes with the figure and they disappear. From here Ryoko’s voice comes into narration “That was the last time we saw Tenchi.”

Ryoko and Ayeka have been searching for Tenchi for 6 months (TMIL2 reference) except they traversed the stars rather than searched through cities. During a search Mihoshi asked for backup to anyone nearby as a massive robbery was underway, while she was on duty. Ryoko and Ayeka go to investigate and to their shock, Tenchi is with the figure who is robbing the bank. He is different, his eyes are different. He is brainwashed. The figure offers Tenchi back if they give him Washu, then they depart quickly, as do the girls.

Back on Earth now, the girls ask Washu to offer herself only as a diversion so they get Tenchi and can trick the figure(still no name for him). When he arrives he has no intent on leaving anyone alive so a fight with everyone against Tenchi happens. He is too powerful with his training. Ryoko makes a final drastic decision. She lets Tenchi stab her, then pulls him close and kisses him with all she is. She then tells him she loves him as blood trickles out of the sides of her mouth. She is flung to the side. As Tenchi approaches Washu. She reaches out for Tenchi, whispering to come back. The figure readies a blast to kill off everyone. At the moment it fires Tenchi yells “NO” and turns to let the blast hit him. The dust clears and everyone is unharmed. Tenchi deployed his lighthawk wings but at too late a time. His arm and leg are missing and the wings are working as prosthetic limbs. they disappear and he falls, Ryoko crawls to him and holds him, crying. He pulls the Master Key out of his pocket and holds the hilt to Ryoko and says “become the person you were meant to be.” She gets all her gems back.

A blinding light flashes from Ryoko as her wound heals and as the light settles, Ryoko is near angelic in stature, and has 3 lighthawk wings(episode 13 references she could use them). She then obliterates the figure and goes back to Tenchi along with Ayeka to help him into Washu’s lab.

Washu cannot make prosthetic limbs because not only would his energy burn them off. But severed leg is severed all the way to the joint, no joint or socket is there. There’s no blood or anything, its as if it never existed. Washu tries coming up with ideas when Mihoshi shows up and talks about the Mass creature. Washu has it, he can assimilate with Mass. She needs Mass and Ryoko volunteers to round up some, and she does and brings it back so Washu can ready her Assimilation surgery.

Tenchi hears voices in his conscience asking him questions; the mass trying to find out if he is a threat. They find him as a threat when they feel his power and begin trying to kill him. Ryoko and Ayeka try to pull away the creatures yelling not to kill him. They ask “is this what love is.” Ryoko and Ayeka reply “Yes, just please, spare him.” They comply and begin assimilating with him. Tsunami has taken Tenchi’s conscience from his body so he can repair faster(much how it was in episode 6 when he talked to Tsunami).

In the next week or so, Tenchi was fully healed. To boot, he had new powers that made him even better than before. Thanks to the Mass, he had regeneration, phasewalking, flying and even teleporting. Ryoko took him with her to teach him flying, as well as an attempt to start their own “mile high club”. Once back home, Katsuhito still wants to duel, even though he proved even in a crippling injury, he would stand up for the girls. He wanted the duel so he could make sure the girls didnt go soft on him in training.

The duel commences, Katsuhito goes to his younger form, as Yosho. He fights with the Master Key that he pulls to him out of Tenchi’s pocket. Tenchi creates the ligthawk sword and the massive duel ensues. In the end, Tenchi is the victor. Katsuhito congratulates him and says “Tenchi, you have fulfilled yourself, you are now of age and your journey is complete. Your name means Heaven and Earth, you were born of those who came from the heavens, and have become one with that of the Earth(may change the saying later). Ayeka begins to cry randomly. Tenchi asks whats wrong and it turns out Ayeka has to leave for Jurai. Katsuhito, with great hesitation, says he will go back in her place, even though he wished to be buried on Earth. Tsunami appears and says. “Yosho, your wish will be granted to come back here. You will not have to stay on Jurai the rest of your days. Sasami will come of age a few years from now, and will succeed the throne, as well as my presence will return to Jurai. You may come and go to Earth and Jurai as you wish, I can have that arranged.”

Several months passed. Yosho left. Mihoshi was on leave and returned to the house. She turns on the news of the long lost Prince coming back, and his succession. Asuza bestowed the crown on his head and so the new emperor was through his coronation. Masaki, and Funaho watched on, proud. Tenchi smiled a bit then looked down at the blanket bundle in his arms. A baby with Tenchi’s eyes and Ryoko’s hair(in an official doushinji there is such a picture of Ryoko’s daughter.) Tenchi smiles at his daughter Achika(As a fan pleaser for the memory of Tenchi’s mother from the First movie.) Ayeka was expecting soon as well, a son (not sure however about this happening yet.) After the news cast is over, Mihoshi goes on to watch her shows, the rest of the house does its own thing, but Nobuyuki and Rhea are over. Tenchi is informed they have been expecting as well, and that they have a boy on the way. Tenchi will have a younger brother.

Tenchi smiles and walks outside, down to the lake and stares out into it. Ryoko puts the baby down in its cradle, since its asleep and walks outside as well. She meets up with Tenchi and stands beside him. Then she says “Things are so different now…I’m glad this is how it all turned out though. It’s almost like it happened yesterday when i was chasing you around the school. I will miss those old days, but the memories I will always have until the end of time.” Tenchi looks over at Ryoko and says “Things aren’t going to be like they were, are they. This whole new life, is here.” Ryoko whispers to Tenchi’s ear “My Tenchi, things may be different, that is true. But the carnival will never leave you, it will always be right here.” She smiles kisses him and puts her hand on his heart as they both look out into the lake, and the show ends, (much how the ending of the last tenchi movie ended).

Well, thats the rough planning of it. May not have solved everything but I will continue to work on it. Feel free to comment or give suggestions, and feel free to offer any ideas or want to pitch in on its creation ^.^ OVA 4 :Tenchismile:
