Vy: Alright, I am rested and refreshed. Time for the next chapter. Thanks for the reviews, they are helping me as I write it, I noticed it is getting better.

Yuri: Ha Ha, you need a lot of work to get better.

Vy: *glares at Yuri* In my opinion, this is one of my favorite and better chapters.

Yuri: Actually, can vouch for her there. I will agree on that.

Vy: *stunned* Did you just agree with me on something??

Yuri: Don't get used to it.

Vy: Wow. Anyway, I hope you like it as much as I liked writing it.

Yuri: On to the next chapter!!

Chapter 7: A Beautiful Day

"With Arms Wide Open" by Creed

"I'm leaving!" Tenchi shouted so everyone would hear him. "I'm not coming back until I find Ryoko!"

With that said, he opened the door and...

"Didn't have to look very far, did you?" Ryoko said, fresh tears streaming down her face.

"Oh, Ryoko!" Tenchi wrapped his arms around her and cried together.

"I'm so sorry Tenchi," she told him, looking into his dark brown eyes, "There is something I need to tell you,"

Well I just heard the news today
It seems my life is going to change

Tenchi stood there with his jaw on the floor when she told him.

I closed my eyes, begin to pray
Then tears of joy stream down my face

He dropped to his knees, his hand cupped over his mouth. He hugged Ryoko around her waist as she stroked his hair and cried from the overwhelming happiness.

With arms wide open
Under the sunlight

He looked up to Ryoko, both their cheeks covered in the salty moisture. She nodded her head and smiled really big.

Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open

Everybody ran into the living room to see the two still standing with the door open.

Well I don't know if I'm ready
To be the man I have to be

"You ready, Tenchi?" Ryoko said, looking at everybody. Tenchi nodded and stood up.

I'll take a breath, take her by my side

Tenchi exhaled a deep breath, put one arm around Ryoko and held her hand with his free one. Ryoko could feel his nervousness, fright, excitement, and happiness as he stood there next to her.

"Everyone," he started...

We stand in awe, we've created life

"I'm going to be a daddy," he told everyone as he stared at deep into Ryoko's eyes.

Ayeka put her hands over her mouth in shock. She certainly was not expecting this to happen.

"I'm going to be a grandma!!" Washu screamed as she jumped up and down, running to her daughter for a motherly hug.

"I'm going to be a great-grandfather?" Yosho said as he passed out, landing with a thud on the floor. This was more of a reaction than Nobuyuki had, who just stared blankly, his mouth slightly ajar, and unblinking.

With arms wide open
Under the sunlight

After all of the congratulations and bringing Tenchi's father back to the real world (who was excited beyond words), Ryoko and Tenchi went outside and under a tree to sit in the morning sun.

Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open

Tenchi held Ryoko close. She rested her head on his chest and listened to his steady heartbeat. It was such a soothing sound to her. He reached his hand around and placed it on her belly.

"Wow, I'm really gonna be a daddy," Tenchi said as he hugged Ryoko tight and hissed her forehead softly.

If I had just one wish
Only one demand

"I've made plenty of bad decisions in my life, I know, but I also know you and now the baby are the best things ever to happen in my life," Tenchi confessed to Ryoko.

I hope he's not like me
I hope he understands

"We will take such wonderful care of our baby, and I hope I can keep him from making bad decisions like I made,"

"Well, I hope our baby turns out just like you, because in my eyes you are perfect," Ryoko replied.

That he can take this life
And hold it by the hand

"This is going to be so wonderful, Ryoko,"

"Yes, it is,"

And he can great the world
With arms wide open

Ryoko and Tenchi fell asleep under the giant tree in each other's arms, so glad to have each other back.

Vy: See? Wasn't it one of my better chapters?

Yuri: Don't let your reviews get to her head please, it is swollen enough.

Vy: Oh, reviews, yes reviews, need 'em! Can't wait to read 'em. Well, well, there is a baby on the way, so what will happen next?

Yuri: OO, I know, I know!!

Vy: It wasn't an actually question, genuis.

Yuri: Yeah, I knew that. *walks away feeling a little stupid*

Vy: Please review! Can't wait to continue. I think it is going pretty good for this one, yay. Okay, I will see you next chapter!!
