	Titus's ship exited hyperspace over the massive black ball of the
planet Geidi Prime. 
	"There it is, if hell is in the plane of existence, it's that planet."
said Nabiki, looking out one of the windows.
	"Yew, it's nothing more than black rock and lava flows." said Ryoga, 
coming over to the same window.
	"Well, that may be true, but I'm getting reading of a large area of land
that's...well, covered in grass, and animals." said Titus.
	"What?" said Ryoga, looking at the scanner.
	"Look, and there's a structure there too...made of..wow, red marble." said
Titus.
	"red marble? Now that rare." said Nabiki.
	Ranma sat quietly with Akane, just holding her hand.	
	"Are you all right, with this, coming along?" asked Ranma.
	"Yes, I am Ranma." said Akane.
	"I just want to know." 
	"I know."
	"You didn't have to sound annoyed."
	"I'm not."
	"Kawaikunee."
	"Hentai!" Akane hits Ranma with the butt of the pistol she is carrying.
	"Ouch!"
	"That felt good."
	"Would you to mind?" said Titus. "We're landing now!" 
	"Sorry." said Ranma.
	
	Titus eased his ship into a landing, on the odd, grassy valley.
	"What the hell is up with this place?" said Ranma, coming down the ramp
and onto the grass.
	"Like the eye of the storm." said Titus coming down next to Ranma.
"You would forget the just over those hills is a boiling river of lava."
	"Hmm...I guess that palace is where the Shogun is." said Nabiki. She 
carries a rifle in her hands.
	"Should we go?" said Ukyo. Akane stood beside her.
	"I guess so." said Titus. He drew his Plasma pistol and trudged across
the grassy field.
	"I guess we should follow him." said Ryoga. 
	
	"So, should we knock or just walk in?" said Nabiki, looking at the large,
polished wooden doors.
	"I think we should..." Ranma began as the doors swung open.
	"Looks like the doors decided for themselves." said Titus ask he walked
through the doors. The others followed him into the hall.
	"This is wonderful." said Akane, looking around at the red painted wooden
walls, satutes of gods for nearly every religion, Paintings that have not been
seen for nearly 3 hundred years. Titus stops and looks at one in particular.
	"You know, this picture was though to of been destroyed during world war
3." he said.
	"It's 'Starry Night'." said Nabiki.
	"Wow, that's got to be worth the price of a planet." said Ryoga.
	"Try 2. In 2014, just before WW3, it was estimated worth 4 billion old
world dollars." said Titus
	"Yes, I read how all but this one of his paintings were destroyed." 
Nabiki looked at the painting.
	"Nabiki! This isn't the time!" said Akane.
	"What?"
	"You're thinking about takeing that painting aren't you?" 
	"Why? Don't worry, I'll come back and get it later."
	"Nabiki!"
	"Just kidding, lets go." Nabiki turned and continued down the hall.
They walked for about 10 minutes until the reached another massive hall. This
one was dimly lit, and a massive dais sat along one wall, a single light shawn
down upon it.
	"WHO DARE ENTER THE PRIVATE CHAMBERS OF THE OMNIPOTENT SHOGUN?" came a
voice that can only be described as massive.
	"Well, my names Titus Zedar, and this is Tendo..."
	"THAT WAS A RECTORIAL QUESTION! I KNOW WHO YOU ARE!"
	"Well, you asked."
	"DON'T TAKE THAT TONE WITH ME, YOUNG MAN."
	"She sounds like my mom." said Ranma to Akane.
	"I HEARD THAT!"
	"Well, you know who we are, then who are you?"
	"I AM THE SHOGUN, THAT IS ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW!"
	"And we should ignore the man behind the curtian, right?" said Titus.
	"YES...I MEAN, DO NOT MOCK ME!"
	"This is point less, lets go Ranma!" said Ryoga.
	"Now your talking, Ryoga."
	They both charge the Shogun's dais. A rocket of blue light slams into
Ryoga, sending him flying into the wall. Ranma avoids the blast aimed for 
him and runs up to the dias. He looks around as sees the back of a chair,
which he turns around.
	Ranma steps back.
	"Oh my, it seems you've found me out.." Kasumi arises from the chair and
touches Ranma on the chest, and Ranma flies back and down onto the floor.
	"KASUMI???????" Says the entire group, save Ryoga, who's lying dazed on 
the floor.
	"Oh yes, that's the name of this body." said Kasumi.
	"Body?" said Ukyo.
	"Oh my, you don't know? Titus, I would of though you would of told them."
	"Titus?" Nabiki, cocked her eyebrow at him.
	"Oh well, looks like I'm going to have to show you." Titus reaches up and
removes his helm. Under the helm is a feminine face, with long brown hair,
tied up with a pink ribbing.
	"TSUBASA?????" said the others.
	"That's this bodies name." said Tsubasa.
	"This is too weird." said Ukyo.
	"Looks like we all have introduced ourselves. Should we tell them our
little story?" said Kasumi.
	"Ok, Me and Kasumi are god like beings. The last of our race. We are 
truely know as the Tyrant and the Conqurer, respectively. We have been 
battling in our own ways for nearly a million years. And we fight again." 
said Tsubasa.
	"Well spoken. I'm the conqurer though." said Kasumi.
	"Ok, can we do something now?" said Nabiki.
	"Ok, should we do things how we all ways do it?" said Kasumi.
	"No, lets just fight with essences this time. I like your body, I wouldn't
like it to be destroyed." said Tsubasa.
	"Agreed." Kasumi's and Tsubasa tremble for a second and then red and 
blue energy came forth and began to pulse. The hall begins to shake and large
portions of the ceiling falls to the floor.
	"Um...lets go." said Ranma.
	"Ouch...my head..." said Kasumi and Tsubasa in unison.
	"Lets get them." said Ukyo, takeing Tsubasa and Nabiki takes Kasumi. 
Ranma picks Ryoga up, and Runs out.
	"Ah! Who's going to fly the ship!" said Akane, running down the hall,
at the vanguard of the group.
	"I'll do it." said Nabiki, puffing from Kasumi's weight.
	"Good..." Said Ranma.
	They got out of the palace, and across the field, arriving at the ship,
and Hoping aboard. Nabiki leaps into the command chair and takes off.
	"Look at that!" Said Ranma, looking out the window at the palace. The roof
had come off, and the two clouds were intertwined and pulsating more. Suddenly,
the Red Cloud expands and then explodes in a massive mushroom cloud that rises 
high above the planet.
	"Wow." said They rest in quiet awe."
	"Oh my...were am...Akane! Nabiki!" Kasumi gets up and embraces Akane, and
begins to cry.
	"It's good to see you too Kasumi."
	"Oh Kasumi..." Nabiki jump out of the chair and hugs Kasumi tightly,
tears streaming down her cheeks. "I	had...I had to kill the only man I ever 
loved, just...seeing you...just brings something out. You've always been the
only one I could talk to...all those years ago."
	"I know Nabiki, I know. Just remind yourself that it was for the greater
good." said Kasumi.
	"Well, lets get home, I think I can fly this thing." said Ranma. He 
punches a few buttons and they leap into hyperspace.

						     *Epilog*
						     
	Upon their arrival at the Throne world of the empire, they find the city
in flames. The People had revolted upon a single impulse, even the emperors
own guards turned against him.
	"Whoa, mom, did you do anything?" said Ranma to his mother.
	"No, we got a message saying to come to the throneworld, and we came, and
it was like this when we arrived." said Nadoka.
	"Intrusting." said Ranma. He looked over to Where Soun was busy crying and
embracing his Daughters.
	"Ah! Col. Tendo!" said a young woman in a black robe over a suit, carrying
a scroll.
	"Yes?" Nabiki asks the Woman, getting out of Soun's arms.
	"Um...I'm Kunichi, the assistant to the Emperors lawyer. There's something
you need to see." she unravels the scroll. 
	"What this? A List of the most powerful people in the Empire. So?"
	"This is the line of succussion. Your 57th in line, and, well, um...
the other 56 people, are all dead. Your the New Empress." She drops to her 
knees.
	"Whoa...." said Nabiki.
	"Oh great...now she has more power." said Ranma.
