Tenchi knocked on the door of his grandfather's shrine. "Is that you Tenchi?" Katsuhito (Tenchi's grandfather) called from inside the shrine. "Yeah." Tenchi said, walking inside. Katsuhito was sitting at a small table. "Did you finish your chores?" he asked.
"Well. . .no. . .but I found a baby in the fields!" Tenchi said. Katsuhito raised an eyebrow. "A baby. . .?" "Yeah. I think someone abandoned him. . ." Tenchi replied, taking the baby out of the basket. Katsuhito sensed some kind of strange power coming from the baby. "Hm. . ." He said. He finally chose to ignore it, at least for now.
"Should we keep him?" Tenchi asked. "Tenchi, this isn't a pet. It's a baby boy. We can't just abandon him, so we should let him stay. But taking care of a baby is hard work and a big responsibility." Katsuhito replied.
"I can take care of him! But. . .he's going to need a name." Tenchi replied as he walked out of the shrine carrying the baby. "Tenchi!" Katsuhito called. Tenchi turned around. "Yeah?"
"When you finish taking care of the baby, get back to your chores." "Yes Grandpa." Tenchi sighed.

Tenchi walked into the house to see Ryoko and Ayeka fighting over the remote control that went to the TV. "Sure you can the remote control. . .When you pry it from my cold dead fingers! (A/N: Read that off of a bumper sticker. . . ^_^;) Ryoko yelled, pulling on one end of the remote. "I might do just that!" Ayeka yelled back, pulling on the other end.
The baby watched with amusement and interest. Tenchi sighed, then finally yelled, "could you two please stop?!" Ryoko and Ayeka looked over at Tenchi and dropped the remote. "Tenchi!" they said in unison. They were by his side in an instant. Tenchi sweat dropped.
"Lord Tenchi, you're home early." Ayeka said. She took notice of the bundle Tenchi was holding. "Is that a present for me?" She asked. "Of course not! Why would he give you any presents?! If it's a present than it's probably for me!" Ryoko said.
"It's not for either of you and it's not a present! It's a baby boy that I found in the fields!" Tenchi yelled. The baby began to cry again. "Now look at what you two did!" Tenchi accused. "He's staying with us?" Ryoko asked incredulously.
"Yeah. But he still needs a name." Tenchi replied. "How about 'Spike'?" Ayeka suggested, staring the baby's hair. The baby stopped crying and made a face like he was sucking on a lemon. "I don't think he likes the name." Tenchi sighed.
"Well he looks like he'd be named Spike with that hair." Ayeka retorted. As if in response, the baby grabbed one of her pigtails and pulled. HARD. "OW!" Ayeka yelled. The baby let go of her hair, clapped, and laughed.
"Little brat." Ayeka muttered. "Hey, maybe having this baby around the house won't be so bad." Ryoko said thoughtfully. "And what is THAT supposed to mean?!" Ayeka yelled. "Exactly what you THINK it means princess!" "Can we TRY to get along?!" Tenchi yelled.
"Which fields did you find him in?" Ryoko asked. "In the carrot fields." Tenchi replied. Ryoko thought for a moment. "How about 'Kakarotto'?" she asked. A looked of recognition flickered across the baby's face. In an instant it was gone.
"Do you think he likes the name?" Ryoko asked. "It looked like it for a minute, but that could have been my imagination." Ayeka commented. "I wish we knew what his name was before he was abandoned." Ryoko sighed. Tenchi snapped his fingers. "That's it! Washu could help!"
Author's Note-So how was that? Please R&R. I'll try to get the next chapter out soon. By the way, check out stories by Kisike Tsume. The both of us are writing 'Halftime', and she wrote 'April Fools Day' which is a really funny story. See you soon! Ja ne!
P.S. By the way, Midnight Shinigami? You asked who left Chibi Goku on the doorstep. That's part of the mystery. Your question will be answered later on in the fanfic. ^_~
