This idea for a fic has been swarming in my head for some time now. I didn't want to start posting this until I got some of my other fic done but I just couldn't stand it anymore. I need it out of my head. This Tenchi Muyo fic is a Alternate Universe as you will easily find out in the first chapter. I think this will turn out to be a pretty decent fic so I hope you enjoy it.

The event in Tenchi's life changed his fate making everything hectic up above. To insure he doesn't do it again, the higher powers above send down a guardian angel to watch Tenchi.Chapter 1- The Event
"Man, this is lame." Kent, a boy about the age of eighteen says. A group of kids are up on top of a large hill that over looks the city below. The night is full of stars and the air is warm.
"Yea we should go do something." Armagaski says, although not knowing what there really is to do.
"Too bad we don't have money. Then we'd be able to get into that new joint down town." A man says sadly. He has short brown hair and deep brown eyes. He's seventeen years old. This is the man of our story, Tenchi Masaki. He moved into New York five years ago and made quick friends with Kent and Armagaski. As they grew up together, became known as the bad boys at their high school and around town. Always pulling pranks and bullying the unfortunate victims to cross their path.
Kent smirked and sat up off the ground. He turns towards Armagaski and Tenchi, "I know how we can get money." Kent says, a mischievous glint passing across his eyes.
Armagaski snorted, "Yea like what? None of us have jobs. Where you planning to get money from? Robbing a bank?" Armagaski jokes.
Kent smiled, "Actually, I was thinking about robbing the small Quickie Mart near our school."
Tenchi shot up, "WHAT!? Are you crazy? We can't do that."
"And why not? We've done some pretty bad things before." Armagaski says.
Tenchi panicked as he tries to come up with a good explanation, "Yea but we've never stole anything before. Or robbed a place for that matter. We could go to jail." He says quickly.
Kent laughs, "Quit being a weenie Tenchi. We won't end up in jail. We won't even get caught! Now, you can stay here if you want. But me and Armagaski are going to get some money." He says as he stands up and heads towards his car. Armagaski quickly follows.
Kent starts the car while Tenchi sits there in thought. Tenchi quickly gets up and runs towards the car, "Wait! I'll come too." Tenchi says as he climbs into the back of the car.
Kent smirks, "I knew you'd change your mind. Couldn't pass up on a thrill like this huh?" The car begins moving as Kent starts driving down the road.
Tenchi shakes his head, "I still don't agree with this. I'm just going to make sure you don't get into more trouble then you're putting yourself in."
"Gee, Tenchi. Thanks for your concern." Armagaski says sarcastically.
They drive down in silence as Tenchi tries to fight his nerves. He knows this is a bad idea and he can't help but feel that something is going to go wrong. The car stops stops in front of the Quickie Mart. Tenchi stares at the store in silent horror. 'They're actually going to do it.' He keeps repeating in his head.
Armagaski is the first one to get out of the car. He walks into the store and goes through the isles pretending to look for something.
Tenchi gulps, "Well Tenchi? You going in or staying here?" Kent asks as he looks over his seat. Tenchi hangs his head a bit and gets out of the car, making his way into the store. Kent follows Tenchi with his eyes. When Tenchi walks into the store, he leans over to the passenger seat. He opens up the glove compartment and takes the gun out of there. He checks to make sure it's loaded, seeing it is he hides it in his jacket. Getting out of the car he checks to make sure no one is round and then heads into the store.
Tenchi nervously looks through the magazines, keeping an eye on Kent for the signal. Tenchi glances over at the old man on the cash register. The clerk is a Spanish immigrant and doesn't know much English. The clerk keeps his eyes on them to make sure they don't steal anything. Tenchi looks at Armagaski seeing him pick up a few drinks and a bag of chips. Kent nods his head at Tenchi, signaling they are ready to go.
Tenchi rubs his shaking hands together and picks up a magazine titled The Great Outdoors. The group make there way to the clerk and put supplies on the counter. The clerk looks at them, "Togetha?" He questions.
Kent smiles, "Yes." He replies.
The clerk rings up the total, "Twenty-one sixty five." He reads on the register.
"Oh can I get a pack of cigarettes also?" Kent questions.
The clerk gives him a blank look, "I.D.?"
Kent takes out his wallet and puts it down on the counter. The clerk leans down to look at it. Armagaski quickly pulls out a knife and holds it to the clerks throat. Tenchi stands silently as he tries to figure out what to do. "Alright pops. How about you open up the register for us too." Armagaski says.
"Guys.. I don't think this is.." Tenchi begins to say but is cut off.
"It's too late now." Kent says, "We already started this so now we go through with it."
"But we can still.."
"Shut the hell up! I don't wanna here another word out of you!" Kent yells. Then he turns back to the clerk, "Now.. open up the register." He orders. The clerk reaches his hand over to the cash register ready to open it for them. Instead of opening the register though, his hand goes underneath the counter and activates the alarm. The three jumps in surprise when they hear the alarm go off. Kent narrow his eyes at the clerk and punches him. The clerk falls to the ground.
"Let's get out of here!" Armagaski yells running for the car.
Kent throws the cask register on the ground and it opens up. He quickly gathers up the money. When he's finished he stands up and looks at Tenchi, "What are you waiting for? Let's go!" He turns around and starts going for the door. Tenchi stays put, not knowing what to do.
The clerk comes out from behind the counter and starts yelling in his language as he shakes his fist in the air at Kent. Kent stops and turns around. He narrows his eyes at the clerk and smirks, "You should of just done what we told you." Tenchi gasps as Kent pulls out a gun, aiming for the clerk. "And now you're going to be punished!" He says pulling the trigger.
"WATCH OUT!" Tenchi runs over and shoves the old man out of the way as the shot rings out through the night. Just as Tenchi shoves the man out of the way, the bullet embeds itself in Tenchi's chest. Tenchi falls to the floor, blood rushing out of him.
Kent laughed, "You always we're a weenie Tenchi. And now you're going to die as one." With that said he runs out of the store and speeds off in his car with Armagaski.
Tenchi lays on the floor, barely breathing, as blood comes out from his chest and his mouth. His eyes are glazed over as if he can't see anything. All he can do is listen to the sirens of the police and ambulances as they draw closer. He doesn't respond to the questions of the medics or the police as they carry him out of the store and into the ambulance.
He hears the people around him but he doesn't understand them. All he can do is listen and force himself to take short shallow breaths, to continue breathing.
Tenchi gets rushed into the emergency room at the hospital. "What's the situation?" The doctor asks as he frankly puts on rubber gloves.
"Gunshot wound at the chest. Severe bleeding at the wound and mouth. The bullet most have hit a lung." A nurse explains.
"Alright people. We don't have much time. Let's go!" The doctor orders. The begins working on Tenchi, trying to get the bullet out and stop the bleeding. They hook up a heart monitor to him, Beep......Beep..... Beep. "Damn this bullet is in deep!" The doctor curses. Beep......Beep..... Beeeeeeeeee. "We're losing him!" They quickly get the shock pads.
(A/N- Don't know the real name of the thing sorry)
"Alright.... CLEAR!" BIZZ Tenchi's body jolts up from the electric shock but his heart doesn't start beating. "Come on kid.. CLEAR!" BIZZ They try shocking him again, trying to get his heart to start beating again. After one last failed attempt, the doctor puts the pads down and sighs in disappointment. He covers up Tenchi's body with a sheet to show some respect. May 13th 2004 Tenchi Masaki was shot and killed by his own friend.
Up In Heaven
A secretary rushes through the building and into the office of their boss, or perhaps better to say 'Ruler' The secretary is holding up a report waving it above her head frantically. "PROBLEM! WE'VE GOT A PROBLEM!" The secretary yells in panic.
The secretary stops before their boss and kneels. The ruler is a beautiful woman. She has long blue hair, a soft face, pink eyes, and a strange symbol above her head. She's the goddess Tsunami. (A/N Spell?)
"What is the problem?" Tsunami asks.
The secretary rises and hands the report to the goddess. "Someone has shifted their destiny. Tenchi Masaki was shot and killed today and according to our books, that was never suppose to happen. The cosmic balance of fate is being shifted and everything is going wrong what are we going to do?" The secretary says in hysterics.
"Calm down Ayeaka. Let me read the report." Tsunami orders.
(A/N- Heh heh heh.)
"Tenchi Masaki, age seventeen." Tsunami reads the report out loud. "A regular bad boy huh? Seems he gets into a lot of trouble with his friends. Hmm..." Tsunami pauses at an interesting part, "Takes a bullet for the clerk of the store they were robbing. Now that's interesting. Seems he may not be as much of a street rat after all."
"Tsunami? What're you going to do." Ayeaka asks curiously.
Tsunami puts the report down, "Well... due to his selfless act and saving the life of another, well actually the clerk wouldn't have died anyway. But anyways, I guess we have to fix this problem. Won't we? We'll give this boy another chance. To make sure he doesn't makes this place a total mess again I'll give him a guardian angel."
Ayeaka snorts, "A street rat is not worthy of a guardian angel Tsunami." Ayeaka comments disgusted.
Tsunami gets up from her chair, "Perhaps your right. Maybe he doesn't deserve an experienced one. We'll give the job to someone with no experience. Not only is this the only option but it will give out guardian angel some experience for future assignments" Tsunami comments.
Ayeaka tilts her head to the side questioningly, "Who do you have in mind."
Tsunami contains the knowing smile spreading across her face, "Why your favorite person Ayeaka. I think you know who I'm talking about."
Ayeaka gasps, "Not that demon woman?" Tsunami nods her head. Ayeaka immediately objects, "But Tsunami! She's not really a guardian angel! She's only up here because this is the only place that she wouldn't be able to stand! She's up here for punishment! She doesn't even have wings!" Ayeaka tries reasoning.
Tsunami give a half smile, "True. Being up here is her punishment. But think of it as a greater punishment to have to help someone"
"But surely you know that sending her down there could very well cuz more harm then good. Trouble follows that woman wherever she goes!" Ayeaka continues to object.
Tsunami narrows her eyes, "I'm the one in charge. Or have you forgotten? Now who I chose for the assignment is the one who will be doing it. Now I wish to have a meeting with our guardian angel for hire." She says, her voice threateningly low.
Ayeaka gulps and bows, "Yes of coarse. Forgive me. I'll fetch the woman right away." Ayeaka quickly leaves Tsunami's office.
Tsunami turns around and looks out the window, watching the spirits working. Tsunami gives a childish giggle at the thought of hiring the person. "This is going to be quite entertaining to watch." She says to herself.
Okay y'all that's it for now. Tell me what you think so far. Good? Bad? All reviews will be given a new home and cherished until they die. No matter how bad they can get. lol. TTNC! (Till The Next Chapter)
