DISCLAIMER: I don't own any of the characters from Tenchi, and, I might add that this author feels that owning a sentient being is sick and wrong...even if they are animated! But maybe im just jealous ^_~

A/N: I hate it when I MST fics that say this but So what. This is my first Official Fan-Fic! The timeline is a super amalgam of all the OAV's (Ryo-oki and Tokyo) but it rarely matters because well I've taken a huge step and mostly left out the other cast members.


THE INSANE AND RATHER SILLY ADVENTURES OF AZAKA AND TAMIDAKE

EPISODE1: Such Lovely Spring-Like Weather


Welcome oh harried and starry-eyed reader of fan fiction. Sit ye down now and listen to this old mans tale. It is about two beings with whom we have spent much time but know very little about... Yes, gentle audience I speak of Azaka and Tamidake: the two guardians of the Princess Ayeka. Let us join them now as they stand at their usual posts...


CHAPTER 1: Pizza for a monkey king!

It was a beautiful morning at the Masaki household, and the two large log-like guardians could not help but comment on that very fact.

"Ah, what a peaceful morning"

"Yes, such lovely spring-like weather"

"What sort of mischief do you suppose lady Ayeka will get into today Tamidake?" Asked the guardian called Azaka.

"I know not Azaka but I hope we don't need to intercede," Replied his companion ", frankly I've begun to wear myself out recently."

"Yes, I see much rest in our future..."

Suddenly behind them the two heard a loud crash that signaled the awakening of the home's occupants.

"There they go again" Commented Tamidake tiredly as they both turned toward the house.

"Ahem, " came a voice from the path behind them ",might either of you gentlemen know where a Mr. Zarusama lives?"

Somewhat startled the two wooden sentries turned back to view their questioner. He was a small man of medium build wearing a hat emblazoned with some strange heraldry and carrying a cardboard box, which, by all their sensors reckoning, held a small heat-generating disk.

"May we help you?" they asked in unison.

Blinking slightly but still nonplused the young man repeated his question. "Do either of you know where I can find a Mr. Zarusama...I have this Pizza to deliver and I only have six minutes left or I end up paying for it."

Though neither of the two guardians knew what a 'pizza' was, they could sense the distress in the young man's voice and their guardian instincts were moved.

"We indeed know the location of Mr. Zarusama's abode," replied Azaka.

"But without our help you shall not meet your deadline!" Added Tamidake.

The pizza man looked at them confusedly now "your Help? And how exactly do you intend to -"

The young mans sentence was cut off abruptly as the two guardians lifted him up into the air and began accelerating westward at high speeds.

The world blurred for the young man and he almost fainted twice, but somehow he held together as the two sentinels carried him undaunted at speeds he never even thought about reaching. And then like a mountain rising up off the horizon he saw the castle.
