(Originally written for the W100 topic "friendship". Crossover with Tenchi Universe. Clark and Pete are visiting the Masaki Shrine. For people who have never seen Tenchi, I will sum up: Tenchi Masaki thinks he is a normal Japanese high school boy. Then all these alien women (space pirate, two princesses, galaxy police, bounty hunter) start showing up, and he finds that the demon imprisoned in the cave near his family's shrine is also an alien woman, a mad scientist who was locked up there centuries ago. All the alien women looooove Tenchi. There are big space battles and stuff. Lots of banter. Eventually he discovers that his grandfather, Yoshi, is also an alien, a prince who fled his home planet in some sort of dispute over the succession. But it all works out okay.)
"Lookit this!"
"Please direct me to the shrine? My boyfriend went -- well, not exactly boyfriend. He keeps secrets." Lana touched the cute boy's arm and blinked imploringly.
Yoshi had given Clark plenty to think about.
"Lookit this!"
"Wow, Pete! You'll come with?"
"What're friends for?"
Lana was eavesdropping.
"Please direct me to the shrine? My boyfriend went -- well, not exactly boyfriend. He keeps secrets." Lana touched the cute boy's arm and blinked imploringly.
Tenchi rubbed the back of his head. "Well, Miss..."
Suddenly, a fireball came from one direction and a lightning-bolt from another. Lana vanished.
"Our friendship brought us this victory!" Ryoko laughed.
Ayeka cackled merrily, then glared at her.
Yoshi had given Clark plenty to think about.
He didn't notice the conflict until was too late for poor Lana.
Darn.
