pg 9
Megane:
Anytime you're ready, Benten-chan.
(Akane and Ranma walk to opposite corners of the room and wait).
Akane and Ranma:
Okay, we're ready!
(Megane and Benten stare at each other intensely, until a
heart-shaped aura forms about them. They then start slowly lifting
upwards off the floor. As they levitate, an entwined crimson strand
goes in each direction toward the couple in opposite corners.
Then, as Megane and Benten move out of the way, the crimson
threads join and become one, pulling the pair together into the center
of the room, where they kiss each other with all the passion and
devotion they can muster).
(Benten and Megane land gently on the floor, comparing notes about
something odd they noticed about the young lovers.)
Benten:
Did you notice that, my love?
Megane:
(referring to the passion generated by the young couple in the center
of the room):
Hard to miss that much heat being generated.
Benten:
(slapping him gently (?) on the back) No, you dummy. Didn't you
notice the crimson strand?
Megane:
What about it?
Benten:
We didn't connect just one pair of lovers. We were seeing two
sets of fates, joined as one. These two will bear watching in the
future...
[See the upcoming series, RANMA X 2].
Megane:
Is that what the double-stranded thread was. I thought I was
seeing things. Well, It's been a busy night. We'd better get back to
our own room...
Benten:
I know what's on your mind, love.
(She kisses him lightly on the lips)
And I love you for it. You foolish, impetuous mortal!
Megane:
Mortal!? I thought your father took care of that problem? I'll
show you mortal! Best two out of three falls back in our bedroom?
Benten:
(As she snuggles into his arms)
You're on!
(They slowly walk out of the room, closing the door behind them).
(Ranma and Akane finally start breathing again with a pair of
contented sighs, lost in each other's eyes as the scene fades out).
Akane & Ranma:
(together)
I LOVE YOU!!!
(Scene change to):
The next day,
r me eagerly at the altar and...
Ten:
(Acting as Ataru's ringbearer, walking on the other side of the
aisle, looks at her and yells)
Will you SHUT UP!!!
(As he does this, he accidentally spits out a fire ball directly
at Mako. She deftly deflects it with a frying pan she pulls out of
nowhere):
Mako:
(smiling sweetly)
Your future cousin-in-law showed me how to do that!
Ten:
(grumbling)
Another thing I'll never forgive you for, Ataru!
Sitting in one of the front row pews, Ten's mother gives him a
look that would freeze water, gives Mako a quick smile, and whips out
a pistol which shoots a jet of water at the deflected ball of flame
before it can burn anything. There is much more water than flame,
however, and the remainder of the water jet arcs up, over, and down,
landing directly on Genma, who is immediately tranformed into his
Giant Panda form.
He nonchalantly adjusts the placement of his glasses, ignoring the
astonished looks of the congregation, and growls as if to say "What
an obnoxious bunch of weirdos", he pats Ranma-chan's arm and continues
to escort his beautifully dressed daughter down the aisle to her
beloved waiting groom.
At the reception, Ranma and Akane unwrap a package which contains
a book written by Dr. Foo entitled: "Pools of Longing: The Secret
History of Two Pools". [See Ranma 1/2: The Prequel]. Another package
has a two book set: The Male/Female Body: A User's Guide. Ranma and
Akane decide to examine their gifts later, as they and their family
join in the festivities at the Mendo Reception Hall.
THE END
(for now)
P.S. Some of the more alert of you may have noticed a few things
have changed (or will be changing) for the Urusei Yatsura regulars
during the time period this script covers).
These changes will be explained in our Final Urusei Yatsura Script,
which has been in production now for nearly two months, and at 80+
pages of text, is between 35% to 50% complete, with no slowdown in
sight.
We hope to submit the Final UY Script directly to Kitty Films and
Rumiko Takahashi, in the hopes that some (if not all of it) may be
used at some future date.
This Ranma 1/2 s
his might make a nice teaser of a possible
future for the characters we love.
Keep dreaming, folks, and if you have a nice one, write it down and
share it!
This may be used on Electronic Bulletin Boards and put into
non-profit organization or private fanzines, as long as no changes are
made, and the source is acknowledged.
(And two copies of the publication sent to the address at the end
of the file would be nice!)
Comments, Catcalls (everything short of letterbombs) would be
appreciated.
