*SPLASH*

	Startled out of his reverie by the sudden wet noise, 
the Jusenkyou guide dropped his pipe and ran outside his little 
shack to locate the source of the splashing. He grimaced, seeing 
what appeared to be a dripping wet young woman crawling out of 
one of his newest springs.
	A second of inspection revealed her to be wearing clothes, 
so at least he knew that she was human, and not some poor forest 
animal that had stumbled into the spring. 
	He sighed, and pulled out his spiral notebook with all the 
maps and names of the springs and held it up for her to see.
	"Oh, very bad, young miss. You fall in Akaneniichuan, spring of 
drowned violent young japanese girl. Very tragic story of girl who drown 
in spring two year ago."
	"Too bad it wasn't permanent."
	"Urr... Yes, well, girl respond well to mouth to mouth 
ressuciation." This was new. Usually, the victims of the Jusenkyou
springs were quite upset by their new curse. This girl seemed quite 
content, pleased, in fact, as she pulled out a mirror and examined 
her new face.
	"Now hot water changes me back to normal and cold water restores
the curse, right?"
	"Yessss.... Unless you get wet with water from special bucket..."
	"Hmmm... I don't think that's necessary yet, but I may be back."
	As the girl rose to her full height in the slightly oversized 
leotard, and started twirling the ribbon behind her, the Guide got 
the awful sensation that he wasn't dealing with someone who was 
completely sane.
	"Any thing else for young miss?"
	"Oh, no! You've helped quite enough, thank-you. Now I can 
finally lure my Ranma-sama away from that wretched little cockroach.
Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho!"
	The Guide wiped a bead of sweat off his forehead as the girl 
leaped off in a shower of rose petals, twirling the ribbon behind her.

			   A Tale of Two Akanes

			     Kodachi's Revenge

Any takers?

	I got this idea from the two recent stories that have 
mentioned Ukyou  masquerading in one fashion or another as Akane 
to be able to stay with Ranma. It's an interesting, if chilling
idea, and I thought that it might be even more exiting, if one
added Kodachi to the mix instead of Ukyou. It could lend itself
to be a chilling psychological thriller or a light comedy of
errors.

If anyone is interested, feel free to take this idea. I'm spending
too much time on 'The Ballad of Ranma and Akane' to start anything
new.
