AN: Okay people, before you begin to flame me, I just want you to know... I was listening to this song one day, and thinking of TM. And this idea popped in my head... And I wrote this, because I wanted something to do.... And I don’t hate Ryoko, I just wanted to experiment with the alternate universe a little....

This fic takes place after “Daughter Of Darkness”, It is alternate universe, As I said before... I like to experiment....

It was an ordinary Saturday morning... There was a slight breeze in the air..... Ryoko mysteriously died during a vacation to New Zealand two weeks ago..... Aeka was in her usual purple kimono.....

Aeka: Tenchi...

Tenchi: Huh? (Turns around) Oh... Aeka, You look very pretty today.....

Aeka: I wear this alot, I don’t look much different....

Tenchi: Look... (Walks up to her, and puts his hands on her shoulders)

*I ain’t ever gonna let you down
All you gotta do is trust me
I would never make you some clown
baby why won’t you trust me*

Tenchi: I’m not going to let you down... You just gotta trust me....
Aeka: Huh?

*You give up so easily, I don’t know why you can’t see
I’m depending on you, don’t let me down
I’m depending on you*

Tenchi: I’m depending on you...
Aeka: (Stunned: .........I never thought I would hear you say that.....)......So, I heard Ryoko’s dead.... What happened?
Tenchi: I don’t know.... She mysteriously died while vacationing in New Zealand....
Aeka: That’s sad... I’m beginning to feel really sorry for her... We hated each other so much.... Yet I regret it....
Tenchi: I know how you feel....

*baby if you can’t change the world
maybe you should just change yourself*

Tenchi: If you can’t change the world... Why don’t you change yourself? Not trying to be mean.....
Aeka: I know....
Tenchi: Wanna dance?
Aeka: (Stunned: .....I’d like nothing better)

*you used to be such a sweet young girl
why you wanna be someone else?*

Tenchi: You are such a sweet girl, Why do you want to be someone else??
Aeka: ......

*you give up so easily
I don’t know why you can’t see
I’m depending on you
is it too late now?
I’m depending on you*

Aeka: I never knew you were such a Tom Petty fanatic...
Tenchi: I love him... He’s a genius....
Aeka: Yes... I like him too...

*you give up so easily
I don’t know why you can’t see
I’m depending on you
is it too late now?
I’m depending on you*

Suddenly... He began to put his mouth to hers...

Aeka: You’re joking....
Tenchi: No joke....

They kiss and.... I think you get to idea.....

THE END

AN: Again, this was just a writing experiment.... I hope it’s successful.... I had this idea stuck in my head for 5 days.....
