I do not own the characters of Tenchi Muyo. They are property of Pioneer. My only claim is to Mikumi. Plus I'm poor, horribly, horribly poor. In other words Please don't sue.
Author's Note: This is just the story I created in my head to answer all the questions made by Tenchi Muyo OVA. For instance "What does Tokimi want with Washuu?" and "What are those gems?" so I made up a story which is my version and added another character because I felt it would make more sense. So keep an open mind and enjoy!

The Beginning
[Deep in space near Jurai, a mysterious ship is approaching the Juraian Space Port. Inside is the long lost Princess Mikumi who has finally returned home.]
Mikumi: Doko, Mikato, how long till we reach the port.
Doko: Very soon miss
Mikato: With our speed we will be there in approximately 15 minutes.
Mikumi: (sighing) I'm almost home.
[Little did she know someone else was thinking the same thing. In Lady Tokimi's palace she too sees how close Mikumi is.]
Tokimi: Well, well our little princess is almost home. She is persistent, now what I do with that? I know, destroy it!
[Tokimi sends a large blast to the ship. The guardian's see it coming and initiate the Lighthawk Wings. The blast is too huge and the defenses aren't holding up. The ship is starting to shake.]
Mikumi: Wh-What's going on!?
Doko: We are being attacked the defenses can't hold the blast.
Mikumi: Where is it coming from?
Mikato: We don't know.
Mikumi: Tokimi, she will never stop
[Mikumi falls to the ground from the violent shaking. She feels the intense heat of the blast. The ship is falling apart. Just then Tsunami (ship form) appears and absorbs the rest of the blast. She attaches Mikumi's ship to hers and takes her to the one place Tokimi will not attack. To planet Earth.]
Tokimi: Tsunami, you will never stop protecting the royal family. I can't get her if she's under your protection.
[It's nighttime at the Masaki Shrine, but sunrise will be coming very soon. Everyone is asleep and it's actually quiet! But Sasami is having one of her psychic dreams. Tsunami has appeared with something incredibly important to say.]
***DREAM***
[Sasami is standing all alone in nothingness. She looks around when she hears a water droplet.]
Sasami: Tsunami is that you?
Tsunami: Yes little one I need to talk to you.
[Tsunami appears before her.]
Sasami: What is it?
Tsunami: You must get the Master Key from Tenchi and go to Yosho's ship, Funaho, and
summon down Mikumi's ship.
Sasami: Mikumi? She's alive! Are you sure Tsunami.
Tsunami: Yes I'm sure, but you must hurry because she is badly injured and needs our help. It is important that she lives. Help her.
[Tsuanmi fades away and Sasami is again alone.]
***END DREAM***
[Back in the room Sasami is thrashing around in her bed and murmuring things. Ayeka is trying to wake up Sasami because she thinks that Sasami is having another bad dream.]
Ayeka: Sasami, wake up. It was just another bad dream.
Ryouko: Will you shut up I'm Trying to sleep!
Ayeka: You will probably sleep till noon today. Instead of getting to your chores.
Ryouko: You bitch!
Mihoshi: Please stop fighting its not right!
[With all the noise Sasami wakes up crying. Ayeka goes and holds her little sister close.]
Sasami: Where's Tenchi. I need to go see him.
Ayeka: I suppose he might be downstairs seeing how its sunrise now.
Kiyone: Why do you need to see Tenchi?
Sasami: You wouldn't understand.
[With that Sasami got up and ran downstairs to find Tenchi. She saw him in the kitchen having a cup of tea. Katsuhito was out working in the yard.]
Sasami: Tenchi! Tenchi! Where is the sword!
Tenchi: Huh? What's going on Sasami? Why do you want my sword?
Sasami: I need it its important.
Seeing the sword lying on the table she grabs it and runs off. Just as she's running out
the door the girls are all heading downstairs for breakfast.
Kiyone: Hmmmmm Sasami's acting strangely
Tenchi: She just took the master key
Ayeka: What!? We must go after her then.
[So everyone goes running after Sasami, even Katsuhito. Ryouko takes to the air and starts tracking her. They soon see that she is heading to Funaho. Sasami arrives at Funaho and holds the Tenchiken in front of her.]
Sasami: Master Key please I summon the ship of Mikumi Jurai! The Miyo-jiin!
[Ayeka and the others arrived just as she uttered the name. Katsuhito and Ayeka gasped in shock at what she just said.]
Ayeka: Sasami! How could you? You know the law! It is forbidden for you to say her name. Also Mikumi is dead, that means her ship is gone also.
[Just then out of the sky came a massive ship. It hovered in the air just above them. Then down came two Juraian guardians protecting a severely injured woman. She was severely burned and looked like she had many broken bones. Her clothes were almost completely gone, but what was there was stained in blood. No one recognized her at first. But then Katsuhito noticed her long red hair.]
Yosho: Mikumi. you're alive.
Ayeka: Oh my, um. Doko, Mikato, bring her inside right away.
Doko: We only take orders...
Mikato: from royal members of Jurai.
Ayeka: I am Ayeka first princess of the Planet Jurai and right now Mikumi needs our help.
[The guardians scanned the princess to see if she was telling the truth.]
Doko: She is the first princess of Planet Jurai
Mikato: Forgive us Princess
Sasami: Will she be all right?
Ayeka: If we have Washuu help her she will be.
[Everyone rushed back to house as quickly as possible. They all rushed into Washuu's lab where Washuu was waiting for them. She had a serious look on her face, which was very rare.]
Ayeka: Washuu please help her, she is Mik (she is cut off)
Washuu: I know who she is Ayeka I saw what happened outside and I'm going to help her. It is crucial that she lives.
Sasami: Hey wait that's what Tsunami... (she is cut off)
Washuu: You must leave now I must conduct tests
Mihoshi: Will she be all right?
Washuu: Yes but you must leave now
[Everyone left the room except the guardians. No one spoke right away, but then Tenchi couldn't bear it any longer.]
Tenchi: Who is Mikumi obviously she's from Jurai, but what's going on. What happened with her? How did she? What are we? Ugh!!!!!!!
Yosho: Tenchi calm down. It's time you learn another thing about Jurai's past. I never told anyone this story before. Not by choice, but by law. It happened a few years before I left Jurai. My mother, Funaho, had another child about a year after Ayeka was born. Her name was Mikumi. Because she still was half earthling she was disliked by the people, but that did not last for long. Her amazing beauty and power made her easier to like by the people. But still many were hostile towards her. She then did a noble act. She took her place on Jurai's Royal Council in it's most dangerous job, Mediator of Deities. No one but her knew exactly what that job was but it is very dangerous. To make it harder for her to be attacked she was given a ship with five Lighthawk Wings instead of regular three. This made her ship almost invincible. But then one day she was coming home from an important meeting with a deity of Jurai. It was said that the meeting could very well change all of Jurai for the better. But before her ship reached the port it just disappeared.
Ayeka: No one knew what had happened it just disappeared. Funaho was heartbroken, she cried for days over her daughters loss. Every time someone comforted her it only made things worse. So Father made the law that the name Mikumi be stricken from everything. She just became a distant memory and it seemed to work for Funaho's sake.
Tenchi: There's one thing I still don't understand, how did Sasami know that Mikumi was near?
Ryouko: Yeah, how did you know Sasami. I mean Katsuhito didn't know and he's his actual
brother.
Sasami: Well...um... Tsunami told me.
Ayeka: What!? Tsunami!? When did you speak to Tsunami
Mihoshi: Hey. aren't you a part of Tsunami, Sasami?
Kiyone: (sigh) Yes Mihoshi she's part of Tsunami.
Mihoshi: Then she was talking to herself.
Ryouko: I nominate that Mihoshi doesn't say anything else the rest of the meeting. All in favor say "aye"
[Everyone but Tenchi and Sasami say "aye". Mihoshi doesn't know what happened, but keeps her mouth shut.]
Sasami: I get strange dreams sometimes, but in this Tsunami actually came and told me what to do. She said Mikumi needed to live.
Tenchi: Well I hope she gets better it would be nice to know how she got here.
Ryouko: Tenchi are you sure about that I mean look at the other Jurian Princess we have, the last thing we need is another one.
Ayeka: Well at least I'm not a mummy, and I'm actually pretty.
Ryouko: Whatever princess you just can't handle that I'm more Tenchi's type.
Ayeka: Tenchi and I are related by noble blood he and I were made for each other!
[Seeing that this may take a while everyone goes about their daily chores. Ayeka and Ryouko continue to argue for about an hour. But no one can stop thinking about poor Mikumi and what has happened to her. Then after dinner was done Washuu finally came out of the lab.]
Washuu: Well I got rid of all her burns, healed her broken bones, stopped the bleeding, and gave her some new clothes. But she's in a coma and not even I, the great WASHUUUUU, can get her out of it. Oh and I'm guessing that this little doohickey here is the key to her ship, since it looks like the master key.
[Washuu thrust out a boomerang that had been crafted from the wood of her tree. It did look a lot like the Tenchiken. Ayeka took it and held it close to her heart and a silent tear slid down her face.]
Ayeka: Can I go see her Washuu?
Washuu: Yes, lets all go down and see her.
[Everyone got up to go down to the lab and see her. When they arrived they were shocked at what they saw. A beautiful young girl about Ayeka's age sleeping peacefully.
Wearing a simple plain white dress she looked very natural. She looked almost exactly like
Funaho, except for her extremely long, red hair which was spread out all around her. There
wasn't even a scar not a patch not anything. She looked as if she was taking a nice nap.]
Yosho: Thank you so much Washuu.
Mihoshi: Wow she's so pretty.
Kiyone: Yeah I know.
Ayeka: Oh she looks just as she used to thank you Washuu oh thank you!
Ryo-ohki: Meow! Meow! Meow!
Washuu: I agree. Ryo-ohki says we should let her rest and not disturb her. Lets go upstairs.
[Three weeks passed and Mikumi still lay sleeping peacefully. Every day people go down to visit her. Ryo-ohki is usually found sleeping on her stomach when she's not on Sasami's head. Mihoshi will talk to Mikumi because she says Mikumi's a good listener. Washuu is constantly doing tests on her like she does with everything. One day Ayeka and Sasami were visiting her in the lab. Sasami is brushing her lengthy hair and Ayeka is washing her face. Ryo-ohki is taking a nap on her stomach as usual.]
Sasami: I remember that she used to brushing and style my hair.
Ayeka: That's right Sasami she loved playing with you so much. She enjoyed her family.
Sasami: Well, when she wakes up I'm gonna spend time with her as much as I can.
[Then Mikumi begins to stir. Ryo-ohki wakes up a little shocked and runs over to Sasami who doesn't really know what's going on. Sasami stands up and runs over to Ayeka and they look at Mikumi hopefully. She slowly opens her eyes to see her two sisters.]
Mikumi: Ayeka, is that you.
Ayeka: Yes Mikumi, I'm right here. Don't worry you're all right here.
Mikumi: Is this Jurai? Am I dead? Where are we?
Sasami: You're in Washuu's sub space lab. You were badly injured. When you leave the lab you will be on planet Earth.
Mikumi: Earth, my mother is from Earth.
Sasami: Yup.
Mikumi: Sasami, is that you? Is it really you? Oh you've grown.
Sasami: (giggling) Yes it's me! I want you to go upstairs and show everyone you are all better.
Ayeka: Wait a minute Sasami, we should probably tell her about everything that is in our house and of umm. shall I say how we got here.
Mikumi: Oh my.
[So Ayeka and Sasami told her everything that had happened. How they got to Earth. Basically the whole Tenchi Muyo series. They explained it over and over again until she at least looked like she understood. Then they journeyed out of Washuu's lab. Mikumi stood up and began to walk but soon fell down. With Sasami and Ayeka's help they eventually made it to the house. Mihoshi, Kiyone and Washuu were in the house when they got into the house.]
Ayeka: Where is Ryouko?
Mihoshi: I don't know. Why, is she missing?
Ayeka: Ughhh, don't you see. She's probably with Tenchi. And I doubt that they are
supervised.
Mikumi: Why is she with a sword?
Sasami: No, no Mikumi, Tenchi is also the name of Yosho's grandson. The one we told you about.
Ayeka: Well Washuu could you tell your daughter to get exhibitionist as-um, well just get her over here!
Washuu: Ahhhhhhh. Our sleeping princess has finally woke up. How wonderful.
[Washuu jumps up to meet the awoken girl. Washuu and Mikumi bow to each other respectfully and Mikumi sits down on the couch. Washuu, Kiyone and Mihoshi sit across from her, while Ayeka and Sasami take their place by her side.]
Washuu: I hope you realize that you're alive because of me. I designed all that equipment and did the operations and everything. I am WASHUUUUU the greatest scientific genius in the universe. Its been a pleasure to study you princess.
Kiyone: Hello Princess, I am First Class Detective Kiyone, and this (sigh) is my partner Mihoshi.
Mihoshi: Hi. Wow, you've been asleep for a while now. I wonder are you still tired? I'm always tired after I take a long nap.
Kiyone: Mihoshi you're always tired.
Mikumi: Ummm, no I'm perfectly fine, just a little weak that's all.
[Just then Tenchi, Ryouko, and Katsuhito burst in the room. The men were panting like crazy, but Ryouko looked upset.]
Ryouko: I just don't see what the big deal is she woke up. Oooooooohhhhhhh well we gotta see her now. Thanks a lot mom.
Washuu: You're welcome.
Yosho: Mikumi, is it really you?
Mikumi: Of course Yosho, who else?
Tenchi: Wow so you're Mikumi. Ha ha ha ha, well its nice to meet you. So
ummmmmmmm.
Mikumi stood up and walked over to Tenchi. She smiled sweetly at him and then spoke.
Mikumi: Tenchi, the same name as the Master Key. Well Yosho is he strong?
Sasami: Tenchi is really strong Mikumi! He can make three Lighthawk wings all by himself!
Mikumi: What!? Is that true? Surely it is impossible!
Tenchi: No, Sasami's right I can make three Lighthawk wings. But only when I need to protect my friends and family. I can't do it at will.
Mikumi: Well it still is an amazing feat. I guess Father was right Yosho, our blood is stronger with earthling in it.
Yosho: hmmmmmmm.
[Mikumi steps toward Yosho and examines him up and down. She is upset with Yosho's new life.]
Mikumi: My Yosho, you have aged greatly. No longer the young man I knew. What
happened to you. You left for Earth because you did not wish to be king. You could have
stepped down.
Yosho: We will discuss it later Mikumi.
Mikumi: I'll see that we do.
[Ryouko steps toward Mikumi as if to threaten her.]
Ryouko: Hey, how do you know all this about us anyway.
Mikumi: Ayeka and Sasami told me about this place and how everyone got here. It really was a fascinating story.
Kiyone: (murmuring)That depends on how you look at it.
Sasami: I'm going to start dinner. Mikumi, do you remember how to make the tea you always would give me? Cause I want to serve it for dinner tonight.
Mikumi: That is a tea the takes slow boiling if you want it to turn out right I would need at least four hours.
Sasami: Okay then never mind.
[With that Sasami cooked the dinner and served regular tea that night. They helped Mikumi up to bed a little while later. Seeing her family and new friends made Mikumi forget her burdens that have plagued her for so long. Mikumi fell fast asleep that night with a smile on her face.]
Author's Note: This is just the story I created in my head to answer all the questions made by Tenchi Muyo OVA. For instance "What does Tokimi want with Washuu?" and "What are those gems?" so I made up a story which is my version and added another character because I felt it would make more sense.

[Washuu jumps up to meet the awoken girl. Washuu and Mikumi bow to each other respectfully and Mikumi sits down on the couch. Washuu, Kiyone and Mihoshi sit across from her, while Ayeka and Sasami take their place by her side.]
Washuu: I hope you realize that you're alive because of me. I designed all that equipment and did the operations and everything. I am WASHUUUUU the greatest scientific genius in the universe. Its been a pleasure to study you princess.
Kiyone: Hello Princess, I am First Class Detective Kiyone, and this (sigh) is my partner Mihoshi.
Mihoshi: Hi. Wow, you've been asleep for a while now. I wonder are you still tired? I'm always tired after I take a long nap.
Kiyone: Mihoshi you're always tired.
Mikumi: Ummm, no I'm perfectly fine, just a little weak that's all.
[Just then Tenchi, Ryouko, and Katsuhito burst in the room. The men were panting like crazy, but Ryouko looked upset.]
Ryouko: I just don't see what the big deal is she woke up. Oooooooohhhhhhh well we gotta see her now. Thanks a lot mom.
Washuu: You're welcome.
Yosho: Mikumi, is it really you?
Mikumi: Of course Yosho, who else?
Tenchi: Wow so you're Mikumi. Ha ha ha ha, well its nice to meet you. So
ummmmmmmm.
Mikumi stood up and walked over to Tenchi. She smiled sweetly at him and then spoke.
Mikumi: Tenchi, the same name as the Master Key. Well Yosho is he strong?
Sasami: Tenchi is really strong Mikumi! He can make three Lighthawk wings all by himself!
Mikumi: What!? Is that true? Surely it is impossible!
Tenchi: No, Sasami's right I can make three Lighthawk wings. But only when I need to protect my friends and family. I can't do it at will.
Mikumi: Well it still is an amazing feat. I guess Father was right Yosho, our blood is stronger with earthling in it.
Yosho: hmmmmmmm.
[Mikumi steps toward Yosho and examines him up and down. She is upset with Yosho's new life.]
Mikumi: My Yosho, you have aged greatly. No longer the young man I knew. What
happened to you. You left for Earth because you did not wish to be king. You could have
stepped down.
Yosho: We will discuss it later Mikumi.
Mikumi: I'll see that we do.
[Ryouko steps toward Mikumi as if to threaten her.]
Ryouko: Hey, how do you know all this about us anyway.
Mikumi: Ayeka and Sasami told me about this place and how everyone got here. It really was a fascinating story.
Kiyone: (murmuring)That depends on how you look at it.
Sasami: I'm going to start dinner. Mikumi, do you remember how to make the tea you always would give me? Cause I want to serve it for dinner tonight.
Mikumi: That is a tea the takes slow boiling if you want it to turn out right I would need at least four hours.
Sasami: Okay then never mind.
[With that Sasami cooked the dinner and served regular tea that night. They helped Mikumi up to bed a little while later. Seeing her family and new friends made Mikumi forget her burdens that have plagued her for so long. Mikumi fell fast asleep that night with a smile on her face.]
