 "Predator and Prey"

	The cast of Ranma vs. the Predator.  Lots of violence and 
combat.  Shocking when Kasumi has three little lights aimed at her chest...

Hey!  Kill off Kasumi?  Isn't that a bit cold?  Kinda like beating up the 
easter bunny or something!

	You're right. . . lets bring in Lobo to snuff Kasumi, then it 
would be amusing ;)

That's rude!  Besides, I said they were aimed at her, not fired.  She 
came into the living room with a kitchen knife still in her hands to see 
what was going on in there.  

	I know, I read it too.

Besides, who can kill Kasumi?

Kasumi: Would you like some more tea, Mr. Lobo? ^-^
Lobo: Um, er, I was suppose to, uh,(looks at Kasumi's smile) nevermind..., 
	Tea?  Um, I wouldn't want to trouble you...
Kasumi: It's really no trouble at all...^-^
Lobo(to outside): Help me... I'm trapped here...

	No no no. . . remember that this is the guy that whacked _Santa_ 
_Claus_!  It would go more like:
	L: COOK _THIS_ SKIRT!!!
	K: AAIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	L: <licks blood & vicera off hook> Wonder where that little punk
Ranma is... WOAH MOMMA, check out that Redhead!  Outta my way, old man
*SHREPP*... hey baby what's goin' on....
	R: <stands stunned in silence at the carnage>
	M: Shampoo, darling... you seem pale today, are you-<interrupted 
by skull (his own) being crushed>
	L: Now where were we <leans down for kiss>
	S: <kicks in only wall left standing with Inconcevably Huge 
Energy Weapon> STAY AWAY FROM SHAMPOO'S _HUSBAND_!!!!!!!!!!! <proceeds to 
anihillate Lobo's extrimities (including head)>
