FA>	Instructions: Read the following partial fanfic (you may feel free
FA>to laugh).  Once you are finished, forward it back to the ML with a
FA>paragraph or two of additional story tacked onto the end. 
FA>	This could end up as anything from Classic Slapstick to Profound
FA>Examination of the Characters to Full Blown Lemon (please warn us if you
FA>go that route).  I don't _think_ this could be turned into a SadFic, but
FA>anything could happen.
FA>	IKUSO!

FA>============================================================================
FA>Evening; Tendo Dojo:

FA>	"RANMA-SAMA!!"
FA>	Ranma muttered something unprintable as he frantically dodged the
FA>ribbon Kuno Kodachi was trying to reel him in with. 
FA>	#'Least Akane ain't home yet,# he thought at he bounded along the
FA>rooftop trying to elude his would-be wife/concubine/mistress/sex-slave,
FA>#no _way_ she wouldn't blame be for-HEY!#
FA>	A moment's innatention, and Ranma's cause was lost as the Black
FA>Rose snared his ankle and had him mummy-wrapped up to his neck before he
FA>could react.
FA>	"Now my dearest," Kodachi smiled as the pulled a massive boquet of
FA>midnight black roses out of a pocket dimension, "let us embrace forever."
FA>	Ranma had no idea what was in those roses, but past experience
FA>told him to expect anything from paralysis to mind control.  Not
FA>suprisingly (although doing so with both arms bound to his side and his
FA>legs tied together made it slightly impressive), he leaped from the roof
FA>and flipped to the side as Kodachi leapt toward him.  For her part,
FA>Kodachi was too suprised at her beloved's avoidance to land correctly; she
FA>stumbled, tripped and dropped the boquet off the roof as she and Ranma
FA>fell heavily.
FA>	Ranma was strugging out of his bonds as he heard a familiar sneeze
FA>come where he figured the front door was and rolled over to see Kodachi
FA>peering over the edge with an expression that terrified him more than any
FA>she had worn before... utter and complete sorbiety heavily leavened with
FA>sanity.  Unable to resist his morbid curiosity, he rolled close enough to
FA>to see the front door and froze in shock.
FA>	"I never did test that love potion on females...." Kodachi muttered
FA>softly as Tendo Kasumi stared up into her eyes, black rose petals still in
FA>her hair.


      "Well, you won't."  Kasumi said sweetly.  Suddenly, she rolled on
her back and waterwheeled Kodach into the Tendo pond.
      "How could you thorw me?  No one can throw me!!"  Kodachi said.
"And ho did you resist my potion?!"
      "I quickly cooked my self the antidote whil you were busy."
      "HoHOHOHOHOH.  I guess I'll come back later."  She then lept for
the house on the other side of the street when she missed her footing
and fell head first into te concrete.
       "Uh oh."  Ranma said.
       "Oh my."  Kasumi said.
