"LAGUNA BLADE!" with the final phase a blade of black energy appears
between in Ranma's hand as he blacks out.

A few days earlier. 

	Ranma in the guise of Mizuno Ami meditated on the floor of his
bedroom.  He could have sat there for days, or hours or minutes but he
could not really tell.  Usagi's voice had come though Mercury's
communicator some time ago but he ignored it.   After that her phone had
not stop ringing ever since.  "Doesn't that girl ever give up." thought
Ranma.  Refusing to be distracted by the annoying attempts to gain his
attention, Ranma refocus his efforts on the task.  What he needed was
somewhere in the mind of Sailor Mercury, all that was required was to
know where to look.

	Ever since that day Ranma had realized a great deal of knowledge
had been sealed away in Mercury's mind, even to Mercury her self.  In
that brief and critical moment when he fought with the Von, the mental
barrier that kept the truth from Mercury had weakened to allow Ranma a
brief peep.   The truth that Ranma saw was knowledge too dangerous even
for his liking.  Sure learning the Chestnut Fist was dangerous; he could
have easily caused permanent damage his hands.  Certain the Amazons
considered the Chestnut Fist a danger to keep it such a closely guarded
secret.  Then there was the Mouko Takabisha, an attack that uses the
user's own life force as a weapon.  When forcefully flaring one's own
life force then concentrating it into a small area, one little mistake
and its heart attack city.

	However, all this, the Chestnut fist and the Mouko Takabisha is
nothing compared to the power of the Laguna Blade and the consequences
that comes with it in a miscast.  As Ranma had learned earlier a miscast
not only mean the death of its cast but also damnation for the rest of
humanity.  The last time that he used this spell the world was only
saved from eternal nightmares due to the compassion of Sailor Moon and
the power of the Mystical Silver Crystal, and for that Ranma was eternal
grateful to the girl.  It was stupid of him really, to attempt to cast a
spell with unknown effects and requirements on his body.  On the bright
side, the enemy was defeated and Ranma found something that could
potential be the answer he had be searching for so long.

	That is what Ranma is doing now. Setting in the lotus position
and putting the memory techniques Genma touch him into good use, but
searching for the answer that eluded him for months in the mind of a
being that had been dead for thousands of years was not what those
techniques was designed for.  To say that Genma was an incompetent
sensei was not that far the truth, his teachings of instant recall of
battle maneuvers had served Ranma well in the past but this time it is
failing him utterly.  Giving it one more shot, Ranma tried once again to
break into the library inside his head to no avail.  Every time he was
able to hold on to a tiny morsel of knowledge it just slips away leaving
him to wonder what is it that he thought he found.  With the final
failure Ranma realized that their must be something actively keeping him
away from what he wanted to find.  "Maybe one of those damn cats knows
something about it.  I heard Usagi said they could do something call the
Lunar Mindmeld." Ranma thought as he pulled himself out of the
meditative trance.  

	Returning to a somewhat normal state of consciousness Ranma
finally notices that the phone is ringing off the hook.  Standing up
Ranma gave his muscles a stretch then reached for the phone on Ami's
desk.  "Mizuno residence." Ranma announced.  "Oh hello Usagi. You want
me do you a favor?" Ranma paused giving the girl's request some thought.
"Sure as long as I don't have to transform again.  Alright I'll be there
in five. No really I'll be there in five minutes." Ranma hanged up the
phone then left the house after putting on something worm.

Mugan Academy.

"Wow! So many students are here even though it's cold and snowy.  They
must by study-holics."  commented Usagi on the organized mob of students
outside Mugan Academy.

"They're totally different from you." Mars teased their sleep-holic
leader.

"Don't remind me." shouted Usagi in response to her friend's jab at
Usagi's own ineptitudes.  

"Sure ya want to go in with me?  It'll be a lot easier for me to go in
alone since none of us have a pass." Ranma asked trying one last time to
dissuade the others.

"Hmm." knobbed the others in unison.

Turning around Ranma looked toward building which the others think is
the headquarters of the Death Busters.

Inside Mugan Academy.

	In a crowd of hundreds, five students from Juuban tries to bland
in but they were doing a terrible job.  For all their efforts, it was
quite simple to tell them apart from everyone else.  The most obvious
thing that set them apart from was that fact that everyone was having a
last minute cram sessions while the five was chatting.  Their strange
behavior when compared to the other students was probably what drew
Viluy Yuri to the small group.  At first Viluy was curious as to those
students could be so casual on the eve of the hardest exam in their
life, but like every other members of the Witches 5, Viluy was also very
competitive and jealous of other people's abilities.  Those students how
chat so free while mere moments from what will be literally the last
test of their life, must know something that Viluy herself did not.
Parting the thong of students like how an intercontinental ballistic
missile parts the clouds, Viluy Yuri homed in on the small group.

	Approaching the small group, the crowd parted to reveal the back
of a short blue haired girl.  There was only one person that would fit
the girl's description and Viluy was certainly surprised to see her
here.  Especially when Viluy hacked into the pre-high school exam
registry specifically looking for her and found that she had not
applied.  Immediately suspicion rose in Viluy over the girl's appearance
at Mugan.  Viluy knew for a fact that the dictatorial clerk at the exam
registration office would not had made an exception for anyone, there
was simply no way that Mizuno Ami can take this exam after the deadline
for registration had passed.  Seeing it as her duty as a Death Buster,
Viluy approached Ami intending to find out why she is here.

	"Are you Mizuno Ami?" asked Viluy to the back of the blue haired
girl.  The girl did not respond.  "Are you Mizuno Ami?" Viluy asked
again.  This time the girl did turn around to face her but only after
some signals from her friends.

	"Oh, were you talking to me?" the girl responded completely
without tact.

	At this point, Viluy was pissed.  "How dare this girl walk in
here and ignore me.  Who does she think she is?" thought Viluy but did
not let any of it show. Putting on a false smile Viluy continued.  "My
name is Viluy Yuri and I was just wondering are you Mizuno Ami, the girl
that always takes top marks in the nation wide exams?" Viluy asked
without any of the malice in her thoughts.

	"Sorry for ignoring you Viluy-san but I was just. distracted.
yea that's it distracted." Ranma lied.  He was not distracted, he just
had not gotten used to having someone unexpected call her Ami.  Sure,
over the last few months he had learned to respond when teachers and
parents call him Mizuno Ami but when it came to some stranger calling
him by that name in a public area it always catches him off guard.
Worse than that, whenever this happens he had to come up with some
excuse for ignoring that person and we all know that Ranma is not the
best of politicians.

	"You must be Mizuno Ami." Viluy continues her act.  "I have
wanted to meet for so long."

	"Why's that Viluy-san." Ranma asked.

	"I have always wanted to meet the person who had the same score
as I on the last exam." continuing her cat and mouse game with Ranma.

	"Oh! Took top marks!" Usagi butted into the conversation,
exclaiming to an event that she thought was impossible for anyone
besides Ami.  

	"Who are you?" Viluy asked out of politeness.

	Instantly Usagi was embarrassed to be in the presence of some
one so smart let alone some one who asked her who she was.  "I'm not
worthy to have my name mentioned."  Rubbing her head dumbly, she tries
to shrug away from the white haired girl's attention.

	"As Ami's friend you must be an intelligent student.  What are
your best subjects?" she asked Usagi.

	"An afternoon nap and lunch break." Usagi replied with her face
red with embarrassment.

	"You're good at jokes!" said Viluy. "Ami this is good timing.  I
have something to show you.  Come with me."  Before anyone could object,
Viluy had a firm grip on Ami's arm and started to drag her away from her
friends.  It was the perfect plan, isolate Ami away from her friends and
she could easily get her to slip her tongue.

	Not wanting to blow his cover, Ranma allowed the strange girl to
drag him away.  Perhaps the others can search the building without him.

	Viluy had brought Ranma to the basement of Mugan Academy, which
also served as a laboratory for the science club.  In the dark and
ominous basement, Viluy brought Ranma in front of a domed shaped device
that generated a mist which covering the table the device was on.  "What
is this?" Ranma inspected the device with curiosity.  

	"It's a mini sized universe, which the science club created.
It's it beautiful?" replies Viluy with amusement.

	"Oh" said Ranma suddenly loosing interest in the device.  He
never did have a head for scientific stuff let alone listen to an
explanation he had no hope of understanding.

	"You don't sound euphuistic Ami.  I thought you of all people
will be interested in experiments of this caliber?"

	"It's not that Viluy-san.  It's just that I'm really nervous
about the exam." Ranma lied badly again.  His facial expression gave it
away even before the absurdity of his lie.

	"No doubt she's trying to snoop around.  I'll just have to get
rid of her before I take everyone's pure heart crystals." Viluy thought.
"Tell me Ami, how much longer are you planning to play dumb?" said Viluy
now sure that Ami was one of the Sailor Senshi.

	"What are ya talking about?" Ami asked confusedly.

	"There's no longer a need for formalities betweens us Ami.
Let's show our true colors."

	"Wha. What?" Ami stammered, not knowing what to do or exactly
what happened.  Is Viluy coming on to him or does she suspect something?
Ranma tries to back away from the girl but finds his way block by the
table with the mini universe.

	"Come on Ami I know you're a Sailor Senshi, your act to cover it
up is pathetic really." Closing in on the kill Viluy intended to force
Ami into transforming.  "Go on Ami transform." she paused "And take your
medicine." Viluy snared as she shed away her school uniform to reveal
the attire of a Death Buster.  Before Ranma could recover, Viluy
extended her hands toward Ami and started her attack.  "Magic Buster"
she shouted while sending a blast of electricity toward Ranma.  To her
amassment, the other girl was able to jump over the attack at point
blank range and avoid it all together by leaping into the air.  Even
though Viluy had not expected the other girl to be able to avoid her
attack, Viluy was nevertheless able to angle her attack he intercept her
target.  Thinking that she had hit her target for sure Viluy did not
even react when she heard the shout "Meteoroid Kic." just before she was
knock unconscious.
