Ranma1/2 Vs. Sailor Moon
Different Transformations
Chapter 3: Round 2; Fight!

	ìOkay lady, I guess here will do nicely,î says Ukyou as she stops in the
yard by the dojo.  ìThis is your last chance, I donít want to hurt you.  Just
keep you and your pals away from my Ranma sugar and everythingíll be okay.î
	ìOdd,î thinks Venus, ìNega-creeps usually donít give us a reprieve.  They
just attack us mindlessly.î  Sailor Venus pushes this thought out of her mind
as she buckles up for the fight.
	ìMina,î whispers Artemis, ìare you sure sheís the bad guy?  Iím not getting
any real bad senses from her.î
	ìI donít know if sheís a negacreep myself, but sheís helping one of them and
that makes her an enemy.  Remember Artemis, we fought some humans that were
sided with the negaverse in Europe and they didnít give any bad vibes
either,î whispers Venus back.
ìBut Iíll go easy on her just in case, alright?î
	Ukyou moves into an defensive stance with her spatula.  ìDonít say I didnít
warn you.î  Ukyou charges at her, swinging her spatula at Venus.
	Venus leaps into the air, and attempts to land on Ukyou, but instead hits
dirt when Ukyou jumps away.  Ukyou repeats the same attack with her spatula,
but Venus dodges it, then grabs it with one hand before Ukyou has a chance to
swing it again, and pushes her palm into Ukyouís chin shoving her teeth
together.
	ìYou hit me!î Ukyou exclaims as she kicks at Venus.  Venus dodges the kick,
but has to let go of the spatula.  The past couple of years, she has been
fighting the threat of the negaverse in Europe all by herself.  Sheís gotten
pretty good because of that.
	ìAlright honey, itís time to get serious.î  Ukyou fients as if she was going
to rush at Venus again with her spatula.  Venus jumps into the air.  Only
this time, Ukyou digs her spatula into the dirt and throws a hail of soot at
Venus.  Some of it gets into her eyes, and she barely manages to land without
hurting herself.
	Seeing Venus disorientated, Ukyou flies at her with the spatula.  Venus
manages to elude it, but Ukyou kicks her leg backwards catching Venus in the
gut.  As Venus recoils, Ukyou slams the handle of her spatula on the back of
Venusí head.  Venus drops to her elbows and knees.
	ìI donít want to harm you anymore.  Go now and stay away from my Ranchan,î
says Ukyou as she backs away from Venus.
	ìNot quite yet,î mutters Venus.  ìYou shouldíve finsihed me when you got the
chance.  Iím not going to underestimate you again,î cries Venus as a bright
light flashes from under her.  ìVenus Love Me Chain!î she cries as heart
shaped chains begin to surrond her.  However, instead of shooting them, she
grabs a link.
	ìNow Iíve got a weapon too,î she claims as she begins to swing the orange
lit chain.  ìHi-yaaa!î she cries as she moves in and slashes at Ukyou with
the chain.
	Ukyou blocks it with her spatula, but it wraps around it.  A game of tug of
war ensues.
	Seeing the stalemate, Ukyou is forced to pull the ace up her sleeve.  She
pulls from her shoulder strap her mini-spatulaís and throws them at Venus.
	Venus is again forced to let go as she dodges the blades.  She turns to look
at Ukyou only to see her own chain flying at her.  The chain wraps around her
neck, cutting of her oxygen.
	ìJust give up!î begs Ukyou as she pulls the the chain, keeping it tight.
	ìHuh, uhhhhh...,î Venus gasps out, trying to collect some oxygen.  With a
low voice, Venus manages to murmur ìvenus... crescent beam... smash.î 
	A glow forms at the edge of one of Venusí fingertips, then shoots at Ukyou
at the speed of thought.  Ukyou barely gets her spatula to block the blast.
 The force of it knocks Ukyou backwards onto her rear.
	ìHuuuuh,î Venus gasps, trying to suck in as much oxygen as possible.  Still
holding her neck, Venus turns her attention to Ukyou who was beginning to
stand up.
ìVenus Love Chain Encircle!î she shouts out as the chain surronds her, then
flies towards Ukyou.
	Ukyou quickly jumps away from it, but it still manages to wrap itself around
her legs.  Ukyou quickly falls back to the ground hard.
	ìIt was a good fight, but itís over now.î  Venus says as she begins to walk
away from Ukyou.
	ìDoes it look like Iím through,î yells Ukyou after her.  Her legs were still
wrapped up, but she props herself up with her hands.
	ìDonít make this harder than it already is.î
	ìFunny, I was about the say the same thing,î Ukyou says as she flings her
flour bomb at Venus.  Venus blocks it with her forearms, but the impending
smoke has her gagging again.  Ukyou cuts the chain with one of her
mini-spatulas.  ìOkynamiyaki Attack!î cries Ukyou as she flings one of her
Japanese pizzas at Venus.  Venus is able to avoid it.
	ìWas that it?î inquires Venus.
	ìTurn around,î replies Ukyou.
	ìNo!  Donít...,î Artemis warns too late.
	ìWhu?î she gets out before the pancake flies into her face with a SPLAT.  It
had returned like a boomerang.  She struggles to get the blinding thing off
her face.
	ìBatter up!î Ukyou screams as her spatula slams itself into Venusí back and
throws her against a tree.  Venus slides off the tree weakly.
	ìSailor Venus!î cries a worried Artemis as she rushes to her side.  ìMina,
are you okay?î
	ìMaíam?  My okynomiyaki has something in it, can I have another?î Venus says
deliriously before her head falls back to the ground.
	A year ago, a talking cat would have scared the hell out of her.  But since
sheís moved in with Ranchan and his crowd, it just didnít seem like such a
big deal.  Speaking of which, ìRanma honey!  Donít worry, Iím coming to help
you!î  Ukyou says as she runs back to the front yard where she left Ranma.

	He walks from the masses of commoners to the front of the crowd.  Only he,
the finest warrior the negaverse has very produced, can at will summon an
audience with the mighty Queen Beryl.  Actually, there was one other now.
 But only for now.
	ìWhat is it Malachite, you have alot of nerve to walk around with your nose
that high after the recent losses we have endured.  Those Sailor Brats are
actually putting us behind schedule,î seethes the wicked queen.
	ìBut I now have a fool proof plan my queen, one in which...,î he says before
being cut off.
	ìOne in which those meddlesome Sailor Scouts blah blah blah.  Iíve heard
this before Malachite with less than satisfactory results.î
	ìMy queen, your scorn is understandable, but at least wait until I show you
my ultimate weapon!î
	There is a silence that follows.  Malachite dares not continue until he has
recieved the queenís approval.  She enjoys watching him wait nervously.
	ìTell me of your plan.î
	ìOf course my queen.î
	Malachite lifts his hand, and suddenly a beam of blue light shoots out of
it, arcing outwards.  An image begins to form in it.  A small man could be
seen, wearing a dark ninja outfit and carrying a large bag containing
something...
	ìThis my queen, is Happosai, the strongest mortal on earth.  His strength is
unparalled, perhaps even stronger than... some negaverse creatures.î
 Malachite had corrected himself before saying ìstronger than yours!î
 Malachite continues to say ìBest of all, heís already tainted by the
darkside.  Possessing him with a negaverse creature should be mere childís
play.î  He closes his fist, ìhe shall destroy the Sailor Scouts
singlehandidly!î
	ìFor your sake, heíd better,î warns Queen Beryl.  ìFine, I approve of your
plan.  But Iím assigning Prince Darian to command this mission.î
	ìNO!î Malachite accidently shouts out.  ìI mean, since I have overseen this
project so far, I feel my knowledge of it would assure our success in this
task,î he says humbly.  ìPlease my Queen, I implore you.î
	ìFine Malachite, fetch the freak, but nothing more.  Go now before I change
my mind.î
	ìYou have my thanks my Queen,î he says before disappearing in a swirl of
energy.
	ìMalachite has something planned with this individual.  Even I have felt his
power myself.  He could prove to be a dangerous toy for Malachite to play
with, perhaps even dangerous to me,î she thinks.
	ìPrince Darian!î she calls out.
	Darian appears in a whirl of roses.  ìWhat do you ask of me my Queen?î he
asks as he bows before her.
	ìI want you to keep an eye on Malachite.  If even a hint of treachery is
percieved, do with him as you wish.  But make sure that this Happosai does
indeed fall into the control of the negaverse.  Do not let Malachite know you
are spying on him.  And while your at it, take care of those Sailor Brats if
you get the chance.  Now begone!î
	ìAs you wish my Queen,î he obliges before disappearing the way he appeared.

	ìAkane, I got a question for you,î Ranma asks casually dodging, as if a
blond girl wasnít attempting to hit him with her stick or wand or something.
 ìHow come you didnít jump in and offer to defend me with the other girls
when the ëscoutsí threatened me?î
	His response is a fist on his head.  ìRanma, it doesnít look to me like you
need my help!  Apparently you donít need me or any of your GIRLFRIENDS
against this poor defenseless girl who obviously doensít know any martial
arts!î
	ìWho... are you... calling defenseless,î stammers out an exhausted Sailor
Moon.
	ìI didnít say I needed their help!  Awww, a slow poke like you probably
wouldnít have been much good anyways,î roars back an infuriated Ranma.
	Sailor Moon watches in amazement as the two suddenly begin a screaming
match.  Even her and Rei were never this bad.  They had completely forgotten
about her in their argument.
	ìUhhh, guys,... yoo-hoo?  Over here!î says Serena, trying to grab some
attention.
	ìWHAT!î they both scream back.
	ìUm, I think we were kinda oh I donít know, fighting or something?î
	ìGirl, if you call that fighting,î boasts Ranma, ìthen you arenít worth my
time.î
	As Ranma finished that sentence, Akane had shoved another fist into Ranmaís
face.  ìYou donít have to be so arrogant Ranma!î
	ìSerena, why didnít you attack him while they were fighting?î scolds Luna.
	ìIt doesnít matter because they started fighting again!î
	ìHmmm, I beginning to think they have nothing to do with the negaverse
Serena.î
	ìAll I know is is this creep is working with that old pervert, and you know
that old guy was negatrash, you felt the bad vibes yourself, and this jerk is
about to taste some...î she pauses as she takes off her tiara and spins in a
circle.  The tiara starts glowing with energy.  ì...some Moon Tiara Magic!î
she cries as she flings the tiara.
	ìRanma, look out!î warns Akane.  Ranmaís back was turned to it and it was
heading straight for both of them.
	ìGet down Akane!î Ranma yells as he pushes her to the ground and then leans
away from the projectile himself.  ìOkay, with a special attack like that, I
guess I was taking you too lightly,î Ranma says as he begins to run towards
Sailor Moon.
	ìRanma!î Akane yells again, but Ranma had already heard the sound of the
frisbee flying back towards him and leaps into the air as it sails underneath
him.
	Serena manages to catch the tiara but suddenly notices a shadow descending
on her.  Before she has a chance to whimper, Ranma had swung his foot across
her face and sent her falling onto her chest.
	He lands, expecting her to fight back, but instead, she slowly gets onto her
knees, turns around, her whole body shaking, and lets out a ìWAAAAAAAAH!î
that could wake the dead.


Chapter 4: Letís Forget About Nearly Killing Each Other, Letís Be Friends
	
	ìOh my god, I didnít mean to hit you that hard.  Are you alright.  I mean,
geez, donít tell anyone I hit you like that, I mean, I didnít mean to... I
mean...î he stutters out before Akane shoved his face into the dirt.
	ìRanma, what are you doing picking on her like that!î Akane scolds before
kicking Ranma into the sky.  She then tries to calm Sailor Moon down.
	ìSailor Moon, are you okay?  Serena, stop crying and talk to me,î says an
unknown voice.  Akane looks down to see a talking black cat.  Ranma lands
back onto the earth with a thud.
	ìSailor Moon!  Iíll get you for that you creep!î cries Luna vengefully as
she leaps at Ranma.  
	With all the hoopla going on, Ranma hadnít noticed her before.  Upon seeing
her, Ranma lets out a ìAIIEEEEEEE!î as he frantically runs away from a
pursuing Luna.  ìIt also talks!  Get it away from me, get it away from me,
AIEEEEE!î he wails before a clothesline by Akane drops him to the ground,
blacking him out for a few seconds.
	Akane quickly picks up the cat, who she noticed had started talking.  ìUmmm,
usually when people fall into Jusenkyo, their animal form donít gain verbal
skills.  So Iím going out on a limb her and assuming you didnít fall in
Jusenkyo, right?î
	ìIíve never heard of it in my life,î replies the cat with her usual english
voice.
	Right then Ukyou reaches the front yard and notices Ranmaís condition.
 ìRanma Honey!î she cries out concerningly as she quickly rushes to his side,
propping him up.  ìRanma speak to me!î
	ìUkyou, you gotta help me!  Get me away from here!  Away from that talking
cat!î Ranma screams out like a maniac.
	Ukyou drops Ranma like a sack of potatoes, and turns to face the still
hysterical Sailor Moon.  ìWhatíd you do to him girl?  You practically drove
him mad!î she screamed preparing to strike her with her fists.
	ìUkyou, wait!î cries out Akane as she gets in Ukyouís way.  ìBelieve it or
not, there really is a talking cat.î
	ìOh yeah, youíre right, I saw a white one that was talking too.  I guess
Ranma freaked when he saw that black one there, huh?î
	Both Akane and Ukyou start laughing out loud hysterically.
	ìHey, this is serious,î complains Ranma right before he notices Luna again.
 ìAHHHH!î he screams before he blacks out again.
	ìSe...seriously though, ha ha, no... seriously,î Akane chugs out, trying to
stop laughing.  ìSeriously though, Iím sure Ranma didnít mean to hit you like
that.  Heís just used to people who could take that and alot more.  It seems
to him that he has a new enemy every week.î  Akane wipes the tears from
Sailor Moonís eyes with a tissue.
	ìShe, she didnít *sniffle* have to hit me that hard,î sobs out Sailor Moon.
 ìAnd Iím not surprised people are attacking her every week if she works for
that perverted old letch!î
	ìPerverted old letch?  Oh no, donít tell me thatís why youíre here?î
	ìActually, thatís exactly why weíre here,î replies a voice behind Ukyou.
 ìOur friend was attacked by a molester  calling himself Happosai, in the
middle of the night, who was also giving off enourmous amounts of negative
energy according to Luna,î says Sailor Mercury, who had finally gotten back.
	ìLuna?î inquires Ukyou.
	ìThe black talking cat.  Which reminds me, whereís Artemis?  And all the
other Sailor Scouts?î
	ìUm, Iím sorry kid, but I kind of knocked out your blonde friend while we
were fighting.  Howíd you get rid of Kuno?  He can be pretty presistent from
what I her.î
	ìYeah,î says Akane, ìhow did you get rid of him?  Iíd liked to know.  It
could come in handy.î
	ìLet me guess, your one of his other two loves that he was babbling about?î
	ìYeah, me and his ëpig-tailed girl.í  I guess Iím gonna have to welcome you
to the reluctant Kunoís mistress club.î
	ìAhem,î interupts Luna.  ìI hate to break up your girlfriend chat, but what
about this negaverse creature you seem to know?î
	ìNegaverse?  No, no kitty, Happosai ainít no creature, at least I donít
think he is.  Heís just some old pervert who steals womenís underwear and
happens to be one of the most powerful fighters to grace the face of the
earth,î answers Ukyou.  ìWhy did you think Ranma honey was involved?î
	ìBecause he told me Ranma Saotome was his apprentice and that I should go to
him if I wanted to... see him again.  And why do all of you talk about this
girl like she was a guy?î answers Sailor Moon.
	ìIím willing to bet he didnít use those words,î answers a concsious Ranma,
only he kept his eyes closed this time.  ìOut of sight, out of mind.  Out of
sight, out of mind,î thinks Ranma, repeating the mantra over and over again.
 ìAs for your question, thatís gonna be a little tough to explain.î
	ìRanma, you okay,î cries Shampoo as she jumps all of a sudden into Ranmaís
arms.
	ìShampoo?  Oh man, youíre a mess.  Iíd hate to see the other girl,î lamates
Ranma as he pushes himself away from her, lest Akane strikes him again.
	ìOther girl tough, might have beat Shampoo too if Mousse no interfere,î she
says scornfully.
	ìShampoo, everything is going to be alright.  Iím taking you to a hospital
right now.  Have you grown taller Shampoo?î asks Mousse to Lita, who he was
carrying piggy back.
	ìWho you calling Shampoo,î yells Lita as she smashes his head in with both
fists.  She managed to stand up, but her leg still felt sore.
	ìLita, are you okay,î asks a concerned Amy.  ìMaybe we should get you to
a...î
	ìIíll be fine,î says Lita angrily.  She then walks up to Shampoo.  Shampoo
stares back at her.  Finally, Lita extends her hand.  ìThat was a good fight.
 Youíre definitly tougher than any negascum Iíve fought.î
	Shampoo shakes her hand.  ìYou pretty good fighter youself, even though
Shampoo no idea what negascum.  If you boy, Shampoo might have to marry you.î
	Lita, puzzled by the statement, just nods her head and smiles.
	ìWait Shampoo, you lost?  Doesnít that mean... uh, nevermind,î concludes
Ranma remembering the kiss of death.
	ìShe no beat Shampoo, Mousse inteferre before it over.î
	ìBut if he hadnít, that girl would have been sucking gravel.î
	ìShampoo not so sure of that,î she says, giving an evil eye to Lita.  Lita
lets it go.
	ìHey guys, did we miss anything,î asks a still woozy Sailor Venus, with
Artemis by her side.
	ìSailor Venus!î the other scouts exclaim.  ìYou feeling alright?î
	ìCouldnít be better,î she says as she finally seems to have regain her
balance.  She takes a look at Lita and jumps back.  ìWhat happened to you
Lita!î
	ìDonít worry about me, it was no big deal,î she falsifies, obviously still
in a great deal of pain.
	ìGlad to see youíre back on your feet, honey,î says Ukyou.  ìFor what itís
worth, Iím really sorry we had to do that over what turned out to me a
misunderstanding.î
	ìIíve had worse lumps, donít worry about me.  But, what misunderstanding?î
questions Venus.
	ìWeíll explain it later,î Luna says quickly, ìbut whereís Rei?î

	Kodachi had regained consciousness again, and noticed Rei slumped over the
edge of the rooftop.  Apparently, she had passed out after using her dirty
tricks on her.  ìIíll show her that cheaters never prosper,î begins Kodachi
as she is about to leap onto the rooftop to finish Rei off.
	Mars slowly regains consciousness and opens her eyes to see Kodachi bounding
towards her with a steel rod in her hands.  Mars was still too groggy to do
anything.  As luck would have it, she didnít have to as a figure quickly
pulls Mars up by her shirt roughly.  Kodachi smashes the tiles into pieces.
	ìDo not fear mistress Kodachi, I shall teach this fowl temptress a lesson
for you,î exclaims Sasuki still holding Mars by the front collars of her
shirt.  Marsí head was weakly slumped backwards as Sasuki was shaking her.
	ìYou overgrown rat!  Did it look like I needed your wretched aid!î yells
Kodachi as she brings her rod down hard onto his head.
	ìBut Miztress...î he gets out as stars start flying around his head.  He
falls down unconsciously and letting go of Mars.
	With all her remaining strength, Mars hurtles Sasuki into Kodachi knocking
both of them onto the ground.  They both stay there.
	Mars looks down quizzicaly.  ìGeez, what kind of mutant is that little
freak?î wonders Mars as she looks down disgustidly.  She runs back to the
dojo already sure that that ugly little freak was going to be given her
nightmares tonight.

	ìOh, look who finally decided to show up,î remarks Sailor Moon
sarcastically.
	ìBe quiet Sailor Moon,î replies Mars.  ìI had to really fight.  You probably
took one hit and started bawling like a baby.î
	ìNo I didnít, not exactly, well mostly I did, but...î Sailor Moon says
quietly, slightly ashamed.
	ìLuna, is there a reason weíre not fightin anymore,î asks Mars.
	ìWell, it turns out this girl isnít responsible for the attack, nor are all
her friends part of the negaverse.  In fact, neither was that Happosai.
 Apparently, he just happens to be an extremely powerful evil individual,î
answers Luna.
	ìWell, it was nice meeting you all.  Letís let bygones be bygones and maybe
weíll see each other again in the future,î says Venus as she begins to walk
away.
	ìI guess this was a waste of time.  Thanks Sailor Moon,î scolds Mars.
	ìWait!  I still want to get that pervert for what he did to me!  I donít
care if he was part of the negaverse or not,î complains Sailor Moon.
	Ranma, with his eyes closed again, says ìGirl, you donít want to mess with
that old letch.  All of us combined together still couldnít take down that
old fool.  Just be glad you donít live with him!  Even an unfemenim girl like
Akane isnít safe from him.î
	Akane throws a tea kettle at him, smacking him with it while the hot water
breaks all over him.
	ìOwww!î Ranma cries, who suddenly turns into boy type.
	Hearts suddenly fill Sailor Moonsí, Marsí, Jupitersí, and Venusí eyes.
 ìWhat I stud!î they all say in unison.
	ìHe looks even better than Freddie,î remarks a lovestruck Jupiter.
	ìHey, back off!  You were all trying to kill him a second ago, remember,î
interjects Akane irratatedly.
	ìIím a little bit confused,î remarks Mercury.  ìHeís a boy when he gets
doused with hot water, but how does he turn into a girl?  Why does he change
sexes in the first place?î
	Akane is all too eager to throw Ranma into the pond.
	ìGee, you couldíve just told them!î screams back an infuriated girl type
Ranma.
	ìOh, so cold water turns him/her into a female,î says Mercury.
	Ranma begins pouring hot water onto himself and complaining ìIím not a her!
 Iím a him!  No him/her, just a him!î
	Ranma has since opened his eyes and noticed the cats again.  He once again
starts screaming and running away hyterically.
	ìUmmm, if you donít mind so much, could you hide your cats in that big bag
of yours or something.  It was funny at first, but itís getting annoying,î
requests Akane.
	ìNo problem.  Alright Luna, get in there,î says Sailor Moon as she roughly
shoves Luna into her purse.  Venus does the same with Artemis, only a bit
more gently.
	ìYou realize I canít breathe in mrmfff...î Luna tried to get out before
Sailor Moon zipped the bag up.
	ìCats!  Cats everywhere!î Ranma was screaming.
	ìTheyíre gone Ranma!  Calm down now!î shouts Akane as she slugs Ranma yet
again.  Ranma falls down, but at least he was no longer panicking.
	ìBack to the point, where is this Happosai?î asks Mercury.  ìIf he is such
an evil and powerful threat, we might have to deal with him sooner or later.î
	ìMercury, have you ever thought,î says Venus, ìif the negaverse might try to
get him to join the negaverse, either through persuasion or force?î
	ìYouíre right,î says Jupiter.  ìIf heís powerful now, he would be
unstoppable if his powers get coupled with the negaverse.î
	ìAlright then.  Ranma,î orders Mars, ìyou gotta show us where Happosai is.
 Where going to have to take care of him now, no matter what the
consequences.î
	Sailor Moon, feeling left out of the conversation, can only shout an
unnecessary ìYa!  What everybody else said except me, the leader of the
Sailor Scouts,î she seethes, staring wickedly at Mars.
	ìYou know, I guess you girls arenít that bad fighters if you were able to
take down some of us.  And I do think itís about time we rid ourselves of
Happosai once and for all,î answers Ranma.  ìWhoís with us?î
	ìYou can count on me Ranma honey.î
	ìShampoo follow husband anywhere.î
	ìShampoo my love, whereíd you go?î asks a still delerious Mousse.
	ìMy blue haired beauty,î cries Kuno as he comes running back.  ìI have
solved the delima that has dammed the raging waters of our affection.î  He is
about to grab her but Ranma sticks his foot in his face.
	ìSaotome, do you attempt to lay claim to this beauty as well?  Is your harem
not enough to suit you?î
	ìYou should be one to talk about haremís Kuno!î yells back Ranma.
	Akane nudges Mercury and whispers ìKunoís harder to get rid of than a
cockroach.î  Amy shakes her head.
	ìAside you defiler of women,î says Kuno as he shoves his way past Ranma.
 ìLet my heart burn with the warmth to be the sun to your Mercury.  The river
that is our love shall flow freely now.  I have decided that there is indeed
another way to prove my worth to you other than combat,î says Kuno as he
suddenly pulls a few dozen roses from behind his back to hand to Mercury.  ìI
shall smutten you with my unparalled charm and woo you with romance all of
Paris could not compare with.î
	Amy blushes hard.  The other sailor scouts notice this.
	ìUh oh!î teases Sailor Moon.  ìLooks like Mercury has got herself a
boyfriend.  What will Greg think Amy?î
	ìItís not like that!î disputes a totally red Mercury.  ìThese are really
sweet Kuno, but I have to reject your kindness, I already have somebody,î
Mercury half lies.
	ìWhat!  Surely this fool cannot compare to the wonder that is me!î
	ìKuno, does this mean you no longer care for me,î asks Akane with hope in
her eyes. 
	ìNo Akane Tendo, I could not part with you anymore than I could part with
the pig-tailed girl,î answers Kuno nervously.  ìSurely a man such as I could
satisfy you all.  I would not have you both, I would have you all!î Kuno
screams while he starts laughing maniacly.  Ranma knocks him into a wall.
	ìRanma,î a worried Akane utters, ìyou arenít planning to kill him are you?î
	ìI sure would like to kill Kuno,î answers Ranma.
	ìNo, not Kuno.  All of us would like to kill him.  Iím talking about
Happosai.
	ìUh, actually, I havenít really thought what we were going to do to him.î
	Everybody falls over with a huge blue drop on their heads.
	ìCome to think of it, I donít even know where he is.î
	Everybody falls down even lower.
	ìMy honey bunny!î screams a voice that gives Sailor Moon chills.  ìI like
the costume!  Allow me to inspect it even futher!î  Happosai leaps at Sailor
Moon.
	ìAHHHH!  Itís him, itís the pervert!î cries Sailor Moon.
	Jupiter slams Happosai into the ground before he reaches Sailor Moon.  ìThis
shrivled up old letch is the most powerful man in the world?î
	Suddenly, Happosai had stuck himself between Jupiterís breasts.  ìOh my!  So
many pretty ladies today!  And all so full of robust energy!î
	Ranma grabs Happosai and throws him against a rock.  ìNot just the most
powerful, but also the most perverted.î
	ìOkay scouts, letís do this while heís down,î dictates Sailor Moon, actually
showing a flash of leadership.
	All of them, even Kuno, had surronded Happosai, prepared to gang up on him
	ìOh, so is that how it is?  You may be next in line for the school of
Anything Goes Martial Arts Ranma, but Iím going to be around for a long time
to come,î says Happosai as he begins building his battle aura.  The bright
blue energy emanating from him catches them all by surprise, as they shield
their eyes from the bright energy.
	ìEverybody, get him before he fully powers up!î shouts Ranma.
	All of a sudden, the fight is obstructed by a swirl of black energy that
blows everybody in random directions.  Malachite appears from the middle of
the maelstrom.
	ìHapposai,î Malachite declares casually, ìtoday you shall experience true
power!î  He floats to Happosai who was still on the ground and places the
palm of his hand onto his forehead.  A burst of energy surges into him.  As
Malachite removes his hand, a negaverse symbol could be seen on his forehead.
	ìNo!  Weíre too late,î screams Mercury.
	ìYes master Malachite,î says a voice slightly different from Happosaiís.
 ìToday is the beginning of the end.î  A tremendous amount of power is
discharged from Happosai as an explosion engulfs the entire courtyard, and
parts of the Tendo home.  A mushroom cloud of smoke could be seen from miles
away.

	Soun is crouched over the go board, with sweat dripping off his face.  Mr.
Panda holds up a sign saying ìHurry Up!î
	ìIf I can delay a little longer,î thinks Soun, ìIím sure Ranma will interupt
this game.  I can always count on that boy to cause a ruckus.î
	All of a sudden, the explosion blows into the room knocking the go board
over.  Both of them are burned black, and all of Genma and Sounís hair are
standing up..
	ìHa ha Saotome.  I guess weíll have to start all over again donít we?î  

Author: Howís that for a cliffhanger?  Anyways, I guess there are two main
things most people would have a problem with.  1), the scouts didnít have
their new powers yet, and 2) Shampoo would have kicked Jupiterís butt.  The
answer to the first question is kind of stretching things a bit.  I thought
itíd get old real fast it the scouts just kept doing their first attacks.  So
I threw the new oneís in.  Remember, the scouts never said ìWow, I have a new
power!î when they get it, they just use it.  At least not in the U.S.  That
thing Mars did at the end of her fight was a move I stole from the SM PSX
game.  As for Jupiter and Shampoo, Iíd have to say Shampoo is the better
fighter, but Jupiter has her powers.  And keep in mind, Shampoo didnít really
lose, Mousse butted in at the end.  For all you know, Shampoo couldíve dodged
at threw her off the wall.  Anyways, this chapter was really long, hope I
didnít piss anybody off.  Ch.5 is out there now.  Once again, please mail
