Tenchi Muyo! in the World

おことわり

Here is the story which follows the man called Azusa, who is to become the king of Jurai. The story are divided into to parts, the present when he meets Funaho and the past when he was a child. The story of the begining of the all....

In the present he is a young man who claimed to go out into space for an exercise, while actually the main purpose was to run away from Seto. Seto is the wife of Utsumi, the household of Kamiki family and the Mother of Misaki(Aeka and Sasami's mother). She is called "the Terrifying Princes of Jurai. (鬼姫,ONI-HIME)" and all who knows her are awed in her. She is terrible in one way and inspiring awe, well... she is powerful and is a hot shot if I know the correct words. For this, she shows an large influence on Azusa, Funaho and Yosho. She kept on trying to introduce girls for mariage to Azusa, and Azusa just ran away! (Actually Seto was just playing fun with Azusa, chasing him around.)

In this trip, Azusa happens to meet Kagato and Ryoko(with Ryo-ohki) and was defeated. He had to retreat from Kagato and had found that the Light Hawk Wing was not able to defend the attack from Ryo-ohki. The battle was tough, actually an space distortion was generated by the two powerful ships, Ryo-oki and "Kirito", Azusa's ship. Then, Tsunami appears and transports Azusa and his ship far away from the battle site ... near Earth.

On Earth, Azusa helps out a lady from some bandits and at her house, he cures the injury of the battle. Her name was Funaho. During the stay, he begins to fall in love with her and finally, after the battle with the gangs which were actually space gangs, he decides to greet her to Jurai as his first mate.

During his stay with Funaho, Azusa begins to talk about his childhood to her, one by one. The story of how his mother and father met (->Amame and Kazuki), the happening which changed his point of view on Seto(->Seto and Azusa, Seto and Azusa(2)), the first meeting with Mitsuki(->Mitsuki and Azusa, Mitsuki and Azusa(2), Mitsuki and Azusa(3), Mitsuki and Azusa(4)) and the day when he met his partner "Kirito"(->Kirito, Kirito(2)).

Few days later Azusa and Funaho arrived Jurai, the King of Jurai passed away. By his demise, the several thousand area of his govern turned to be an end. After his funeral, Azusa was to be selected as the next Jurai King, however, a problem occurred when he declared to take Funaho as his first mate. Azusa was already affianced to Misaki, Utsumi and Seto's daughter, and if he had chosen her as his first and Funaho as his second there would have been no problem, but he did not. For this Utsumi was angry with Azusa as he loved Misaki so much and refused to support him. This made Amaki Shyuzan a chance to be the next Jurai King and the argument continued for days.
On the other hand, Funaho was having hard days in Jurai. The culture difference was so large and the lessons for a queen and the strengthen of her body was a busy one and hard. Those who did not admit her were not few and she was alone.

But the meeting with Seto and Misaki made her more confortable(->Funaho and Misaki).

A while later, Funaho and Misaki were called by the Royal trees telepathically and the ceremony for selecting the tree was held. Passing to the second generation step, they could not find the tree which was calling for them and they moved to the next transporter. There they, including Azusa, Seto and Kotono as a witness, were transferred to an area where they had never visited before. It was not the first generation room. Various kinds of Royal trees were standing there, one having flowers all over made of sap, one standing under the water, one all crystallized and so on. The tree, which called Funaho and Misaki, stood there. A twin tree it was, standing beside each other. Each was typed as a second generation and if both synchronized perfectly, the power of both was equal as the first generation. Moreover, as each could generate three LHW it could be said that they have more power than the first generation.
Having been accepted by the second generation Royal tree, the occasion of Funaho turned out to be well and she was granted to be the first queen. The fact, which was only told to the top of Jurai, it was found out that Funaho was one of the race of Masaki(真沙希), the younger sister of the first King of Jurai, help it, too. And as the mourning of the previous King ended, Azusa became the new Jurai King.

6years later-
The marriage between Azusa and Funaho, who was now 20 years old, was held. Also the ceremony for the affiance of Azusa and Misaki was held and the party was palatial.
Misaki had a wonderful talent of martial arts and won all the tournaments. Showing a merry character, she became the idol of the Jurai people. Many interviews were held for her and each time she told them how she loved Funaho and for this, the prejudice against Funaho was taken away slowly. In the beginning there were many nasty questions about Funaho but when a reporter from a TV station, which was related to Shyuzan, made a truculent question about her, Misaki started to cry. The station was seen as a villain at once, and was almost made to be closed by the fans of Misaki. After this, no other one made such kind of questions. To tell the truth, the head of the largest fan club of Misaki was her father Utsumi.

4years later-
Funaho's first son, Yosho was born.
By this she won more popularity and the people became to love her. As she was opposite with Misaki, the more Misaki became popular the more Funaho became, too.

5years later-
The marriage between Azusa and Misaki, who was now 19 years old, was held.

3years later-
The ceremony of selecting the Royal tree was held for the 8years old boy, Yosho. Called by the tree as his mother Funaho was, he got the first generation Royal tree, "Funaho". At the same time, Misaki's first daughter Aeka was born.

4years later-
The ceremony for the affiance of Yosho, 12 year old, and Aeka, 4 years old, was held. This was made by the wish of both of their mother, Funaho and Misaki. What a selfish thing of parents, but Aeka was pleased.

7years later-
Misaki's second daughter Sasami was born.
The time of fate is near-.

And 3 years later-
The happening which changed the history occurred.

Jurai planet was attacked by the space pirate called as the "Destroyer"- Ryoko with Ryo-oki.

This was 700 years before the time of Masaki Tenchi.
