Gravitron Girls Vs Nerima Guys 

Chapter 5: Rumble in Nerima
A Fanfic by Eddie Vagg and David Myers


The story so far. 
A-ko, B-ko, C-ko and gang go to Nerima for a student exchange trip, and  
B-ko learns that she's been set up to marry Kuno by her father.  
A-ko has lost her powers due to a run-in with Happosai, but she's
formed a friendship with Ranma, who offered to help her out.
Ryoga gives an odd medallion to Akane as a souvenir from Gravitron City.
A strange substitute teacher, Gail shows up and generally acts like Darth Vader.

A-ko and C-ko are invited to the Tendo Dojo for dinner the same night as
Hikaru and B-ko are invited to dine at Kuno mansion.  Mysteriously, B-ko
stays the night... Next morning, C-ko gets kidnapped by Gail.

***********
Ranma and Akane continued along the road towards the high school.

Ranma: I tell you there is nothing between us.
Akane: I saw how she looked at you over the table.  Don't deny it.
Ranma: Jeez, I tell ya  I didn't do nuthin'
Akane: How can you say that, why are you always leading women on like that.
Ranma: I am not, hey if she's got a crush don't blame me.

Akane: How dare you try and pin this on someone else. That's the same
thing you said when Ukyo arrived and look at her now. 
Ranma: Hey your one to talk.  What are you doing wearing that medallion 
all the time for..
Akane: This happens to be a gift from Ryoga!  Don't change the subject
this is about you and A-ko! 
Ranma: Fine! You want me to throw her off I'll do it.  Here she is asking 
me for help.  I'll just have to tell her that I can't help her... 
Akane: (Shocked) Ranma.... 
Ranma: After all I can see why an uncute tomb boy type like you would get 
jealous of someone like her. 
Akane(fuming): What did you say! I can't believe you just said that
to me! 
Ranma: Yeah well I.... What the hell is that? 
Akane: Don't change the .... wow.... 

Akane and Ranma look up at a giant 40 foot robot that blocks the entrance
to the school.  The robot appears to be clothed in what looks like a Kendo
outfit.  B-ko stands smugly in the road waiting for them.  A-ko comes
trotting up the path behind them, looking very distraught after the
kidnap of C-ko. 

B-ko: Ahhh Ranma you have arrived.  You will not be escaping me this day. 
You have defeated me for the last time. 
Ranma: What the heck are you talking about? 
A-ko: (Thinking) Oh no.... 

B-ko: Every day you have made me late for school, by denying me the 
privledge of defeating you in mortal combat.  But not today.  Today the 
Killer Unit Number One will see your defeat. 
Ranma: The what? 
B-ko: (laughs) You'll see... The Killer Unit Number One was designed to 
vaporise even the most persistant opponents aided by a top of the range 
"Skywalker" Death Sabre.  With it's superior Daitokuji-brand mecha joints 
and actuators, Number One is the fastest, most agile combat mecha ever 
devised!  And with its thinking cap technology in place even the 
stupidest of pilots can pilot it .  
Voice Over Loud Speaker: Cease thy idle chatter Harriden and prepare thyself
Saotome.  For I Tatewaki Kuno have come to defeat you in honourable
combat. 
B-ko: Harriden?  I am not old! 
Akane: You call this honourable!
A-ko: He's going to be crushed!  
Ranma(Bemused): Yo Kuno that you in that Sardine can? 
Voice on Loud Speaker: Mock me not! For today you will fall
at my feet and beg for Mercy.  Behold the Power of the K.U.N.O!  K.U.N.O
Boken attack! 

The Giant robot brings its hands together and slowly eases them away from
each other revealing a giant laser sword which has somehow formed between
his hands.  The Robot raises the sword and smashes it intowards Ranma who
deftly leaps out of the way. 

Ranma: Well I'll say this for it.  It's sure is ugly!
Kuno: Have at thee.
A-ko: Ranma I need your help again.
Akane: I think he's a little busy right now....

Again the Robot swings at Ranma who again leaps out of the way.  

Akane/A-ko(Both Concerned): Ranmaaaa!!!

Ranma: Akane I need some water!
Akane (Smiling): One bucket of cold water coming right up.

Akane pulls a bucket of water out from......... where ever it is they get
those things. 

B-ko: Ha you think you can use water to short out my Robot.  I would never
leave it open to such a simple design flaw.  
Ranma: The waters not for your Robot... 

Akane splashes Ranma, turning him into his girl type.

Ranma-Chan: Its for me...

A-ko and B-ko both leap back in shock at Ranma's transformation.

Ranma: Ohhhh Kunoooooo.  

Ranma leaps up onto the K.U.N.O wrist. She looks up at the robots head and
flutters her eyes and generally looks cute. 

Kuno: The Pig tailed girl...

Ranma: Oh alas my love is trapped in side this horrible machine.  I cannot
stand to be (There is latch like sounds being made from inside the robots
head) seperated from him a moment longer.  Alas our love cannot survive
unless he... 

Kuno: Curses I cannot open the door..

B-ko: WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING.  DON'T TELL ME YOUR SO STUPID THAT YOUR
GOING TO FALL FOR.... 

B-ko is cut short as the door explodes outwards and Kuno strides
confidently from the cockpit. 

Kuno: Ahh a mere portal will not seperate us my love.
Ranma: Oh Kunoooo (leaps up to the elbow and then to the shoulder)
Kuno(Starts running towards her): Pig Tailed girl....

Ranma predictably knocks Kuno into orbit before leaping back down to the
wrist again. 

B-ko: I can't believe it. I lost to you again.
Ranma: Ahh don't sweat it B-ko, losings not such a big deal....
B-ko: Its not...
Ranma: Nahh it just means I'm better than you are! (She smirks)

At this point B-ko loses it.

B-ko: YOU'RE WHAT.....

B-ko rips off her school uniform revealing the Akagiyama 23 Battle Suit. 
She launches into attack Ranma. 

B-ko: DIEE RANMAAA!!!
		************************************

Gail stands smugly in an ornate chamber of some kind.  He holds C-ko in
one of his hands who is wailing. 

Cko: AAAAAAAKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Gail: Well my dear princess with your help I'll at last be able to destroy
Tokyo.  Now hand over the... wait you don't have it. Grrrrr I got the
wrong girl... 

Gail turns to a giant crystal ball.

Gail: Computer show me the face of the person  who possesses the medalion.

A picture of Akane's face appears in the globe.  

Gail: What a beautiful woman you are... Soon you and that codex will be
mine. But I need a distraction.  Gamma droids attack the city. 

Voice from the Computer: We hear you and will obey...

		************************************
Ranma: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Ranma flies through the air clutching B-ko as she uses her battle suits jets.

B-ko: Hahahahahahaha you are no match for me! Give up.
Ranma: Not a chance.

Ranma twists in mid air and manages to flip B-ko over.  With a strong kick
she throws B-ko into the ground leaving a small crater.  Ranma lands a few
feet away and eyes B-ko cautiously. 

B-ko: Hahahahahaha You think such a puny attack will affect me.  My battle
armours force shield protects me from all your pathetic attacks. 
Akagiyama missles!! 

Ranma begins desperately dodging out of the way of the numerous missles
that explode on contact with the ground.  Ranma somewhat deafened lies
defenceless on the ground. 

B-ko: Ahahahahaha  Akagiyama missles!!

Another volley of missles speed towards Ranma who looks helplessly up at
the approaching volley of death.  Suddenly a figure leaps in between the
two and blocks the missles with his umbrella. 

Ranma: Ryoga....
B-ko: You!

Ryoga stands up and looks evenly at B-ko.  

Ryoga: I can't let you defeat Ranma like this.
B-ko: Why not?

Ryoga: Because if anyone is going to defeat Ranma in combat.  (Turns
menacingly to Ranma) Its going to be Meeeeee! 

Ryoga throws his umbrella at Ranma who cries in fright and leaps out of
the way.  Much to everyones shock Ryoga and Ranma start fighting each
other. 

B-ko: Grrrrrr Akagiyama missles!!
            ****************
A-ko and Akane stand side by side waching the ensueing battle.  

A-ko: Stop it stop it I say!  Akane you have to help me stop this fight.
Akane: What do I care, he got himself into this mess.
A-ko: You don't understand! Mr Gail has kidnapped C-ko.

Akane: Mr Gail kidnapped C-ko?  That doesn't make any sense A-ko, why
would a tenth grade teacher want to kidnap someone as harmless as C-ko? 

Suddenly through out the city Giant robot drones begin crashing out of the
sewer networks and reaking havok with the surrounding populous.  A-ko and
Akane look in amazement at the sight until a giant robot smashes from the
Ground right in front of them. 

		**************************
Gail watches on a monitor as it zooms in on Akane and A-ko.

Gail: There, that medallion.  Thats the codex.  Get that girl!
		**************************

The Gamma droid, standing eight foot tall looms before Akane and A-ko.

Gamma droid: (mechanical voice) You're coming with me!

Akane: Huh?
A-ko: WHAT!

The gamma droid dosen't reply.  Instead, it's mechanical arms extend with
frightening speed, embracing Akane.  Just as quickly, the built in back
thrusters engage, and the Gamma droid, with Akane, lifts off. 

A-ko: NO!!!!!!!

**********
Soun: What is going on here Saotome!

Genma: I don't know Tendo, but I sense a great evil at work!  Wait isn't
that Akane! 

Genma points up at a robot that is flying through the air with Akane
trapped firmly in its claw. 

Akane: Raaannnmaaaaaaaaaa!
Soun: Akaneeeeeee!

Soun burst into tears.
		**************************

Gail holds the medallion above his head. 

Akane and C-ko are tied up, Akane watching Gail nervously.  C-ko seems to
be in a kind of a trance, she's staring blankly at a wall. 

Gail: At last!  I have the power!  Witness the power of the Codex Medallion!

Gail: (Lifting the medallion above his head.) By the power of the Alpha
Cygnan sun, the moon, and the planets, MOVE THE FORTRESS!!!!! 

		**************************

Meanwhile, back in Gravitron City it is a sunny peaceful day.  An Earth
Defence Force airship patrols the skies surveying the bay area for any
sign of trouble. 

Airship pilot:  Ahh... Another peaceful day.
Airship co-pilot: I guess you're right, but it dosen't hurt to mantain watch.
Airship pilot: (chuckles) Yeah, you're right.  It sure is easy money!
(laughs at his own joke)

The Gravitron Bay area seems to be at peace.  It is high tide, and the
remains of the Alien Spaceship that crashed is covered, only the galaxy
bridge is visible. 

All of a sudden, the sea turns to foam.

Airship Co-pilot: Oh My GOD, Look!!!!
Airship Pilot: Quick! Alert the Director!

	*******
Earth Defence Force Headquarters is abuzz with activity.
Massive video screens show the immense spaceship, now a barnacle clad hulk
rising from it's former watery grave. 

Director-General Zuma, Commander of the Earth Defence Force surveys the
spectacle before him. 

Director: Oh no...

Colonel Lawence Yashida, a spit and polish soldier marches into the war room.
Col. Yashida:  (salutes) Sir! The alien spaceship has cleared the bay,
though we are registering no obvious power source. 

Director: Any word from above? 
Col. Yashida: No sir. May I remind you, in an emergency such as this you 
have authority to act swiftly. 
Director: Yes... That's right... (pauses) Ahhh.... Maintain observation 
discreetly. (thinking) That cursed spaceship is FINALLY leaving! (0utloud)
If we leave it alone, maybe it won't come back... 

Col. Yashida: What was that sir?
Director: Uhhh..... err. Nothing, nothing at all.  I didn't say anything!  

Col. Yashida: Commander! The spaceship may well be attacking the planet!
We must deploy a pre-emptive strike.  I formally request that you take
command of the situation, Sir! 

Director:  Ahhhh.... yes.  Send a squadron of Osprey's to sector 7 G.  

Col. Yashida: But Commander!  Sector 7 G is nowhere near the battle
fortress!  Are you sure? 

Director: Um... It's a diversionary tactic.  We'll take them by surprise!

Col. Yashida: (doubtful) An unusual tactic sir. 
Director: (crosses his arms smugly) They are my orders Colonel.
Col. Yashida: Yes sir! (turns to communications) Deploy the fighters!

		***************************

A group of ACI-20 Osprey's fly in formation, heading for sector 7 G. 

Wing leader: Ok, men, I know you are all itching for action. 
Unfortunently we've been ordered well clear of the alien spaceship.  Is
that understood? 
A gung-ho pilot, Tom "President" Whitmore, swears. 

Whitmore:  Goddamn it!  We must fight the alien menace.  We can't just let
them walk all over us! 
Nervous Wingman: Uh.. Wing Leader?  The spaceship is heading for Tokyo! 
Wing leader: Understood.  E.D.F Headquarters. Do you copy? 

		*******************************
Ranma, B-ko, Ryoga and Kuno are still engaged in combat. Kuno is currently
piloting the somewhat damaged K.U.N.O

Kuno: Oh pig tailed girl!  I shall protect you from my accursed fiance!
Ranma(Girlishly): Oh yes please save me!

The K.U.N.O swings its laser boken near B-ko who dodges out of the way

B-ko: Accursed? You idiot thats Ranma! Ranma! Akagiyama Missles!
Kuno: Boken parry!

K.U.N.O swings his Boken at incredible speed, deflecting every one of B-ko's
missles. Their courses altered, the missles explode at random locations
through out the park. 

Ryoga: Ranma Die! 

Ryoga throws his umbrella which hits the ground cracking it inches from
Ranma. She looks in to see a pipe has been cracked steam drifts up from
the pipe before a shower of hot water explodes turning Ranma back into his
original form. 

Ryoga: Enough running away Ranma time to face me.

Ryoga starts tradfing blows with Ranma.

Ranma: Uh Ryoga....
Kuno: Ranma what have you done with my Pig Tailed Goddess!

Both Ranma and Ryoga look up as K.U.N.O brings its boken down on top of
Ranma and Ryoga, both of whom dodge out of the way.
		***************************
Wing Leader:  The Director says he has a headache!
Whitmore:  I don't believe this!  It's time for action!
Tom "President" Whitmore breaks formation.

Wing Leader: President!  What the devil are you doing?!

Whitmore: I'm gonna whip E.T's ass!  Those Aliens think they can roam
anywhere they want.  Not on my planet! 

The supersonic fighter covers the distance to the Egota Class Cruiser in
scant minutes. 

Whitmore: Take this! 
Whitmore fires a volley of missles at the spaceship,
a massive target, some 6 kilometers in length, and misses! 

Whitmore: Damn! I 've got a missle left...  I want another shot at this!
Wing leader: Negative President, you must retreat!
Whitmore: No.. I.. want.. one.. more.. shot...

Whitmore fires his last missile, which explodes beneath the spaceship's
hull, dislodging a massive spear of metal from the underbelly.  The
hundred meter long shard only just misses Whitmore's Osprey. 

Whitmore: Sheeyit!  Men, I still have one more missile left... ME!

With that, Tom "President" Whitmore throttles his fighter to the max, and
coming up from underneath, rams the space cruiser.
			**************************
At the command centre a kind looking officer consoles Whitmore's kids.

Kind Officer:  Everybody thought your father was crazy, but you should be
proud.  You're father was a hero. 

Son: Nope, Dad  was a loony all right.  
Daughter: A grade "A" Nutter!
                         ************************** 
Ranma leaps up onto one of the Gamma droids as Kuno fires his fist into
the Ground. 

Ranma: Nyaaaaa you missed me!
Kuno: Curse you Saotome you will not win this day!

The Gamma droids laser lines Ranma up in its target.  To its shock though
Ranma leaps out of the way revealing the K.U.N.O swinging its laser boken
straight at the scope.  The Droid almost looks surprised as it explodes
into flames. 

			***************************

Hikaru Daitokuji is in the Garden of Kuno, dressed in his battle gear. (a
genuine Elvis stage costume.) Standing on a podium, he addresses his
troops before him. 

Hikaru: My loyal troops.  Your chosen leader has betrayed us by not
showing up at the appointed time after all.  I will be your leader.  (he
pauses) There has been a *slight* change of plan, the objective is no
longer in Gravitron City.  Gentleman, the mountain has come to Mohammad. 
(He points to the skies.) There is your target! 

At first, only clouds are visible.  Then, ominously and silently, the six
kilometer long Egota class cruiser emerges from the shroud of clouds.  It
is decrepit and battle worn, pocketed by hundreds of craters in the hull.
Despite the smiling C-ko face painted on the front of the ship, and the
colourful "Spaceship land" murals, the cruiser looks evil and foreboding. 

The troops appraise their prospective objective thoughtfully.
Finally, they speak.

Martial artist 1: You have GOT to be kidding!
Martial artist 2: We don't stand a chance!

The rest of the troops grumble in agreement.

Hikaru:  (in desperation) Wait! I'll double your pay!  I'll even TRIPLE it
for god's sake! 
Martial artist 3: Forget it! 
Martial artist 4: (Aussie accent) Come on, lets have a cold one. 
Martial artist 5: We may be Ninja but we're not stupid you know. 

Hikaru, for once is beaten.  he sags to his knees.
The mercenaries all file out of the garden, muttering to themselves.  

			***************************
B-ko and Ryoga seem oblivious to the Spaceship as they run through the
city.  B-ko fires another volley of missles at Ryoga. 

B-ko: How DARE you interfere with my Duel with Ranma. Eat this!

Ryoga(thinking): How many of those things does she have anyway? (Outloud)
BAKUSAI TENKETSU!!! 

Ryoga strikes the pavement shattering it and causing himself to fall into
the sewers.  The missles pass by where Ryoga was and strike the ground
harmlessly. (Except for the millions of Yen worth of structural damage to
the road)

B-ko: Where did he go?

Suddenly a pillar of pure ki energy envelops B-ko as it erupts from the
ground and she falls to the ground with various systems shorting out. 

B-ko: What was that?

Ryoga climbs out of the hole covered in sewerage and looking rather weary.

Ryoga: It's called the Shishi Houkou Dan.
B-ko: Well this is called a machine gun.  Akagiyama Machi....
A-ko: STOP IT!

A-ko steps out in front of them.

B-ko:  Ahh... Finally I will defeat you, A-ko!
A-ko: This is no time for fights, B-ko--- HEY!!
B-ko grasps A-ko's arms by her forarm bracers.
B-ko: Special Akagiyama spin!

B-ko spins at a supersonic rate visible only as a blur.  A-ko is sent
flying, minus her bracers. 

A-ko: Yaaah!
A-ko hits a tree, knocking it over.  She stands, and brushes herself off.

A-ko: Wait a minute...

A-ko punches the air in front of her.  A concentrated force tears the
ground up between her and B-ko. 
A-ko: Alright! 
B-ko: Huh? 
			******************************  

Captain Napolipolita and D stand in an alleyway, looking up at the Cruiser. 
The Captain embraces D with joy.
Captain: D!  We're saved!  We're finally going home!
D: Wait a minute...
D pulls out a pair of binoculars, training them on the ship.

D: Captain! That's our ship!

Captain: Then it's been repaired! (pulls out a hip flask) Time to
celebrate! (Swig) 
D: Something's strange... The engine's are dead. 
The Captain spits out her drink with shock, spraying D. 

Captain: Then this means...  Hijack by an insidious tractor-beam!  Oh no!
(bursts into tears) Police! Police! I'm being robbed!  Why is there never
a police man when you need one? (takes another swig)

D: Never fear Captain, I, D will personally see to it that our spaceship,
and our Princess are returned. 

D rips off her tacky spy clothes in a single move, revealing her battle
bikini underneath.  She holds her Scimitar in front of her. 
D: I will not fail you, Captain. 

			**************


A-ko: B-ko! Listen to me! C-ko and Akane have been kidnapped!
B-ko: C-ko!
Ryoga: Akane!

The ominous shadow of the Egota class cruiser falls over the trio.

End of chapter 5.
Authors notes: 
Ed:  There is some speculation on just what the aftermath of
Project A-ko part 3 was when A-ko punched the ship's deck.  In part 4 the
ship dosen't actually appear, but the Captain laments it's loss, so I
assumed that it was destroyed. In this fanfic though, I figured that
A-ko's punch must have gone right through the ship, disturbing the rubble
beneath the ship.  The Alien Battle fortress settles even deeper into the
bay, visible only in low tide. This is supported by the animation of
Project A-ko part four, most of the time the ship is invisible.  But there
is a scene where Kei looks over the bay at night, and there is a large
shadowy mass in the middle of the bay.  I figure that was the remains of
the stricken spaceship.  

Dave: Does anyone know whats going on cause I don't.... Looks like this is
gunna drag over into another chapter.... again, hate it when that happens. 

Ed: You can contact us at evagg@canberra.dialix.oz.au.
Stay tuned for the Final chapter: Endgame.
