Ranma1/2 Vs. Sailor Moon "New Edition"
Skimpy Skirts And Cross Dressers
Chapter 3: Round 2; Fight!
*Header: Not many changes in this part, and that might be attributed to the
fact that I haven't had time lately to do things with term papers everywhere
and Finals coming up. The only real changes I made would have to be the
fight between Ukyou and Venus, and it's not exactly revolutionary compared to
before, but it's still a significant difference. I know most people who've
read it before find most of the "New Edition" not too radical, but trust me,
by Ch.6-8, there are so many additions to the story, it's most deffinitely
worth checking out. Till next time, jya ne...
Venus chased Ukyou around the corner of the Dojo but suddenly ducked as
mini-spatula's flew over her head.
"That was a warning shot. This is your last chance, I don't want to hurt
you. Just keep you and your pals away from my Ranma sugar and everything'll
be okay."
"Odd," thinks Venus, "Nega-creeps usually don't give us a reprieve. They
just attack us mindlessly." Sailor Venus pushes this thought out of her mind
as she buckles up for the fight.
"Mina," whispers Artemis, "are you sure she's the bad guy? I'm not getting
any real bad senses from her."
"I don't know if she's a negacreep myself, but she's 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 didn't give any bad vibes
either," whispers Venus back.
"But I'll go easy on her just in case, alright?"
Ukyou moves into a defensive stance with her spatula. "Don't say I didn't
warn you." Ukyou charged at her, swinging her spatula at Venus.
Venus leapt into the air, and attempted to land on Ukyou, but instead hit's
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 Ukyou's chin shoving her teeth
together.
"You hit me!" Ukyou exclaims as she kicks at Venus. Venus dodges the kick,
and while still holding onto the spatula, trips Ukyou with a sweep. As Ukyou
falls onto her back, Venus maneuvers so she's holding Ukyou's own spatula
against Ukyou's throat. Ukyou was also holding onto the spatula still, and
struggling to keep Venus from choking her with it.
"You're out of your league girl... Say uncle," demands Venus as she pushes
the spatula lower.
"I'd rather say... You have something on... Your forehead."
"What?" Venus replies as she tries to look at her forehead.
Ukyou then strongly headbutted Venus squarely on the forehead, knocking off
her. "It's a big red mark on your forehead," taunted Ukyou as she rolled
onto her feet.
Venus was already on her fit and looked irritated. "That was kind of cheap
don't you think..."
Ukyou snickered and added, "Only a blonde would even TRY to look at her
forehead."
"Oh yeah, well... HEY! Okay, no one goes there!" shouted back Venus as her
finger tip lit up. "Venus Crescent Beam Smash!"
Ukyou was barely able to roll away from the beam. "Alright honey, it's time
to get serious." Ukyou feinted as if she was going to rush at Venus again
with her spatula. Venus bit on the bait and jumped to the air. This time
however, 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 swings her leg backwards kicking Venus in the
gut. As Venus recoiled, Ukyou slammed the handle of her spatula on the back
of Venus' head. Venus immediately dropped to her elbows and knees.
"I don't want to hurt you anymore. Go now and stay away from my Ranchan,"
ordered Ukyou as she backed away from Venus.
"Not quite yet," muttered Venus. "You should've finished me when you got
the chance. I'm not going to underestimate you again," cried Venus as a
bright light flashed from under her. "Venus Love Me Chain!" she cried as
heart shaped chains begin to surround her. However, instead of shooting
them, she grabs a link.
*Editors Notes: Again, I'm not making this up! In the already mentioned
PSX game, Venus had this move where she used her love me chain to slash at
people. These are legit moves I tell you! I'll make up moves later... ^_^
"Now I've got a weapon too," she claimed as she swung the orange lit chain.
"Hi-yaaa!" she cried as she moved in and slashed at Ukyou with the chain.
Ukyou blocked it with her spatula, but it wrapped around it. A game of tug
of war ensues.
Seeing the stalemate, Ukyou was forced to pull the ace up her sleeve. In a
blink of an eye, she removed a trio of mini-spatula's from her shoulder
strap, and launched them at Venus.
Seeing the blades threatening to cut her to pieces, Venus was forced to let
go of the chain to dodge. As she rolled to her feet she heard she sound of
her own chain flying at her, and suddenly she found them wrapped around her
neck, cutting off her oxygen.
"Just give up!" begged Ukyou as she pulls the chain, keeping it tight.
"Huh, uhhhhh...," Venus gasps out, trying to collect some oxygen. With a
low voice, Venus managed to murmur, "Venus... crescent beam... smash."
A glow against formed at the edge of one of Venus' fingertips, and shoots at
Ukyou at the speed of thought. This time Ukyou was in no position to dodge.
Ukyou was barely able to block the blast with her spatula. The force of it
knocks Ukyou backwards onto her rear.
"Huuuuh," Venus gasps, trying to suck in as much oxygen as possible as the
chain goes slack. Still holding her neck, Venus turned her attention to
Ukyou who was beginning to stand up.
"Venus Love Chain Encircle!" she shouts out as the chain surrounds her, then
flies towards Ukyou.
Ukyou quickly jumped away from it, but it still managed to wrap itself
around her legs. Ukyou was tied up in midair, and fell hard back to the
earth, with her legs bound.
"It was a good fight, but it's over now," Venus said as she began to walk
away from Ukyou.
"Does it look like I'm through," yelled Ukyou after her. Her legs were
still wrapped up, but she propped herself up with her hands.
"Don't make this harder than it already is."
"Funny, I was about the say the same thing," 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 her remaining
mini-spatula. "Okynomiyaki Attack!" cries Ukyou as she flings one of her
Japanese pizzas at Venus. Venus was able to avoid it.
"Was that it?" inquired Venus.
"Turn around," replied Ukyou.
"No! Don't...," Artemis warned too late.
"Whu?" she gets out before the pancake flies into her face with a SPLAT. It
had returned like a boomerang. She struggled to get the blinding thing off
her face.
"Batter up!" Ukyou screamed as her spatula slams itself into Venus' back and
threw her against a tree. Venus was flattened against a tree trunk, before
she weakly slid off it.
"Sailor Venus!" cried a worried Artemis as he rushed to her side. "Mina,
are you okay?"
"Ma'am? My Okynomiyaki has something in it, can I have another?" Venus said
deliriously before her head fell back to the ground.
A year ago, a talking cat would have scared the hell out of her. But since
she's moved in with Ranchan and his crowd, it just didn't seem like such a
big deal. Speaking of which, "Ranma honey! Don't worry, I'm coming to help
you!" Ukyou said as she ran back to the front yard where she left Ranma.
"This has gone on for long enough. I appreciate your compassion for me, it
really is quite flattering," an out of breath Amy said to Kuno, "but I need
to get back to my friends." Amy had stopped running and just looked at Kuno
now.
"But my love! How can I truly appreciate the budding emotion between us two
young lovers unless I have castigated myself in your honor? No, I must
continue to prove my worth!" Kuno moved in to strike Amy, but she stood her
ground, just staring at him.
"My love, why do you take no action?"
"If you think for one second you hitting me with your kendo sword is going
to impress me, you'd better think again! Either get it over with or get out
of my way!"
"I cannot strike you if you do not parry. Yet, I cannot date with you until
I have proven my valuation to you," Kuno says as he begins grabbing his hair.
"I do not know what to do? I, the mighty kendo master Tatewaki Kuno, is at
a lost for action. Ahhhh!" screams Kuno as he runs away. He could be heard
at a distance muttering "I shall meditate until my indecision shall be
illuminated by the light of cognition!"
"Whew," Amy lets out relievedly. "There's no telling what's happened since
I've been chased by that fanatic. I've got to get back there as soon as I
can," said Amy as she looked at her computer showing her the way back.
"Akane, I got a question for you," Ranma asked casually dodging, as if a
blond girl wasn't attempting to hit him with her stick or wand or something.
"How come you didn't jump in and offer to defend me with the other girls
when the 'scouts' threatened me?"
His response was a fist on his head. "Ranma, it doesn't look to me like you
need my help! Apparently you don't need me or any of your GIRLFRIENDS
against this poor defenseless girl who obviously doesn't know any martial
arts!"
"Who... are you... calling defenseless," stammered out an exhausted Sailor
Moon.
"I didn't say I needed their help! Awww, a slow poke like you probably
wouldn't have been much good anyways," roared back Ranma.
Sailor Moon watched in amazement as the two suddenly begin a screaming
match. Even her and Rei were never this bad. They had completely forgotten
her in their argument.
"Uhhh, guys,... yoo-hoo? Over here!" waved Serena, trying to grab some
attention.
"WHAT!" they both scream back.
"Um, I think we were kinda, oh I don't know, fighting or something?"
"Girl, if you call that fighting," boasted Ranma, "then you aren't worth my
time."
As Ranma finished that sentence, Akane had shoved another fist into Ranma's
face. "You don't have to be so arrogant Ranma!"
"Serena, why didn't you attack him while they were fighting?" scolded Luna.
"It doesn't matter because they started fighting again!"
"Hmmm, I beginning to think they have nothing to do with the negaverse
Serena."
"All I know is this creep is working with that old pervert, and no one but
NO ONE touches me like that... Well, maybe Tuxedo Mask, but that's besides
the point! That hentai creep is about to taste..." she paused as she took
off her tiara and began to spin in a circle. The tiara started glowing with
energy. "...some Moon Tiara Magic!" she chants as she flung the tiara.
"Ranma, look out!" warned Akane. Ranma's back was turned, but his natural
instinct quickly took over.
"Get down Akane!" Ranma yelled as he pushed her to the ground and then
leaned away from the projectile himself. "Okay, with a special attack like
that, I guess I was taking you too lightly," Ranma said as he began running
towards Sailor Moon.
"Ranma!" Akane yelled again, but Ranma had already heard the sound of the
frisbee flying back towards him and leapt into the air as it sailed
underneath him.
"Geez Akane, stop trying to distract me," he smirked.
Serena manages to catch the tiara but suddenly noticed a shadow descending
on her. Before she had a chance to whimper, Ranma had swung his foot across
her face and sent her falling onto her chest.
He landed, expecting her to fight back, but instead, she slowly gets onto
her knees, turns around, her whole body shaking, and lets out a "WAAAAAAAAH!"
that could wake the dead.
Chapter 4: Let's Forget About Nearly Killing Each Other, Let's Be Friends
"Oh my god, I didn't mean to hit you that hard. Are you alright. I mean,
geez, don't tell anyone I hit you like that, I mean, I didn't mean to... I
mean..." he stuttered out before Akane shoved his face into the dirt.
"Ranma, what are you doing picking on her like that!" Akane scolded before
kicking Ranma into the sky. She then tried to calm Sailor Moon down.
"Sailor Moon, are you okay? Serena, stop crying and talk to me," said an
unknown voice. Akane looked down to see a talking black cat. Ranma landed
back onto the earth with a thud.
"Sailor Moon! I'll get you for that you creep!" cried Luna vengefully as
she leapt at Ranma.
With all the hoopla going on, Ranma hadn't noticed her before. Upon seeing
her now, Ranma let out an "AIIEEEEEEE!" as he frantically ran away from a
pursuing Luna. "It also talks! Get it away from me, get it away from me,
AIEEEEE!" he wailed before a clothesline by Akane dropped him to the ground,
blacking him out for a few seconds.
Akane quickly picked up the cat, who she noticed had started talking.
"Ummm, usually when people fall into Jusenkyo, their animal form don't gain
verbal skills. So I'm going out on a limb here and assuming you didn't fall
in Jusenkyo, right?"
"I've never heard of it in my life," replied the cat in her usual English
voice.
Right then Ukyou reaches the front yard and noticed Ranma's condition.
"Ranma Honey!" she cries out concerningly as she quickly rushes to his side,
propping him up. "Ranma speak to me!"
"Ukyou, you gotta help me! Get me away from here! Away from that talking
cat!" Ranma screamed like a maniac.
Ukyou dropped Ranma like a sack of potatoes, and turned to face the still
hysterical Sailor Moon. "What'd you do to him girl? You practically drove
him mad!" she screamed preparing to strike her with her fists.
"Ukyou, wait!" cries out Akane as she gets in Ukyou's way. "Believe it or
not, there really is a talking cat."
"Oh yeah, you're right, I saw a white one that was talking too. I guess
Ranma freaked when he saw that black one there, huh?"
Both Akane and Ukyou started laughing out loud hysterically.
"Hey, this is serious," complained Ranma right before he noticed Luna again.
"AHHHH!" he screamed before he blacked out again.
"Se...seriously though, ha ha, no... seriously," Akane chugged out, trying
to stop laughing. "Seriously though, I'm sure Ranma didn't mean to hit you
like that. He's just used to people who could take that and alot more. It
seems to him that he has a new enemy every week." Akane wiped the tears from
Sailor Moon's eyes with a tissue.
"She, she didn't *sniffle* have to hit me that hard," sobbed out Sailor
Moon. "And I'm not surprised people are attacking her every week if she
works for that perverted old letch!"
"Perverted old letch? Oh no, don't tell me that's why you're here?"
"Actually, that's exactly why we're here," replied a voice behind Ukyou.
"Our friend was attacked by a molester calling himself Happosai, in the
middle of the night, who was also giving off enormous amounts of negative
energy according to Luna," said Sailor Mercury, who had finally gotten back.
"Luna?" inquired Ukyou.
"The black talking cat. Which reminds me, where's Artemis? And all the
other Sailor Scouts?"
"Um, I'm sorry kid, but I kind of knocked out your blonde friend while we
were fighting. How'd you get rid of Kuno? He can be pretty persistent from
what I her."
"Yeah," asked Akane, "how did you get rid of him? I'd liked to know. It
could come in handy."
"Let me guess, your one of his other two loves that he was babbling about?"
"Yeah, me and his 'pig-tailed girl.' I guess I'm gonna have to welcome you
to the reluctant Kuno's mistress club."
"Ahem," interrupted Luna. "I hate to break up your girlfriend chat, but
what about this negaverse creature you seem to know?"
"Negaverse? No, no kitty, Happosai ain't no creature, at least I don't
think he is. He's just some old pervert who steals women's underwear and
happens to be one of the most powerful fighters to grace the face of the
earth," answered Ukyou. "Why did you think Ranma honey was involved?"
"Because 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?" asked Sailor Moon.
"See him again? More like he wanted to see more of you again," answered a
conscious Ranma, only he kept his eyes closed this time. "Out of sight, out
of mind. Out of sight, out of mind," thinks Ranma, repeating the mantra over
and over again. "As for your question, that's gonna be a little tough to
explain."
"Ranma, you okay," chirped Shampoo as she suddenly jumped into Ranma's arms.
"Shampoo? Oh man, you're a mess. I'd hate to see the other girl,"
responded Ranma as he pushed himself away from her, lest Akane strikes him
again.
"Other girl tough, might have beat Shampoo too if Mousse no interfere," she
said scornfully.
"Shampoo, everything is going to be alright. I'm taking you to a hospital
right now. Have you grown taller Shampoo?" Mousse asked Jupiter, who he was
carrying piggy back.
"Who you calling Shampoo," yelled Jupiter as she smashed his head in with
both fists. She managed to stand up, but her leg still felt sore.
"Lita, are you okay," asks a concerned Amy. "Maybe we should get you to
a..."
"I'll be fine," replied Lita angrily. She then walked up to Shampoo.
Shampoo stared coldly back at her. Finally, Lita extended her hand. "That
was a good fight. You're definitely tougher than any negascum I've fought."
Shampoo shook her hand. "You pretty good fighter yourself, even though
Shampoo no idea what negascum. If you boy, Shampoo might have to marry you."
Lita, puzzled by the statement, just nods her head patronizingly and smiles.
"Wait Shampoo, you lost? Doesn't that mean... uh, nevermind," paused Ranma
remembering the kiss of death.
"She no beat Shampoo, Mousse interfere before it over."
"Hey guys, did we miss anything," asked a still woozy Sailor Venus, with
Artemis by her side.
"Sailor Venus!" the other scouts exclaim. "You feeling alright?"
"Couldn't be better," she said as she finally seemed to regain her balance.
She took a look at Lita and jumped back. "What happened to you Lita!"
"Don't worry about me, it was no big deal," she lied, obviously still in a
great deal of pain.
"Glad to see you're back on your feet, honey," said Ukyou. "For what it's
worth, I'm really sorry we had to do that over what turned out to me a
misunderstanding."
"I've had worse lumps, don't worry about me. But, what misunderstanding?"
questioned Venus.
"We'll explain it later," Luna says quickly, "but where's Rei?"
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. "I'll show her that cheaters never prosper," cursed Kodachi
as she was 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 didn't have to as a figure quickly
pulls Mars up by her shirt roughly. Kodachi ended up only smashes tiles to
pieces.
"Do not fear mistress Kodachi, I shall teach this fowl temptress a lesson
for you," exclaimed Sasuki still holding Mars by the front collars of her
shirt. Mars' head was weakly slumped backwards as Sasuki was shaking her.
"You overgrown rat! Did it look like I needed your wretched aid!" yelled
Kodachi as she brought her rod down hard onto his head.
"But Miztress..." he gets out as stars start flying around his head. He
fell down unconsciously and let go of Mars.
With all her remaining strength, Mars hurtled Sasuki into Kodachi knocking
both of them onto the ground. They both stayed there.
Mars looked down quizzically. "Geez, what kind of mutant is that little
freak?" wondered Mars as she looked down disgustedly. She ran back to the
Dojo already sure that that ugly little freak was going to be given her
nightmares tonight.
"Oh, look who finally decided to show up," remarked Sailor Moon
sarcastically.
"Be quiet Sailor Moon," replied Mars. "I had to really fight. You probably
took one hit and started bawling like a baby."
"No I didn't, not exactly, well mostly I did, but..." Sailor Moon said
quietly, slightly ashamed.
"Luna, is there a reason we're not fighting anymore," asked Mars.
"Well, it turns out this girl isn't 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,"
answered Luna.
"Well, it was nice meeting you all. Let's let bygones be bygones and maybe
we'll see each other again in the future," said Venus as she began to walk
away.
"I guess this was a waste of time. Thanks Sailor Moon," scolded Mars.
"Wait! I still want to get that pervert for what he did to me! I don't
care if he was part of the negaverse or not," complained Sailor Moon.
Ranma, with his eyes still closed, said "Girl, you don't want to mess with
that old letch. All of us combined together still couldn't take down that
old fool. Just be glad you don't live with him! Even an unfeminine girl
like Akane isn't safe from him."
Akane threw a tea kettle at him, smacking him with it while the hot water
broke all over him.
"Owww!" Ranma whined, who suddenly turned into boy type.
Hearts suddenly fill Sailor Moons', Mars', Jupiters', and Venus' eyes.
"What I stud!" they all say in unison.
"He looks even better than Freddie," remarked a lovestruck Jupiter.
"Hey, back off! You were all trying to kill him a second ago, remember,"
interjected Akane irratadedly.
"I'm a little bit confused," remarked Mercury. "He's 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?"
Akane was all too eager to throw Ranma into the pond.
"Gee, you could've just told them!" screamed back an infuriated girl type
Ranma.
"Oh, so cold water turns him/her into a female," said Mercury.
Ranma begins pouring hot water onto himself and complaining "I'm not a her!
I'm a him! No him/her, just a him!"
Ranma had since opened his eyes and noticed the cats again. He once again
started screaming and running away hysterically.
"Ummm, if you don't mind so much, could you hide your cats in that big bag
of yours or something. It was funny at first, but it's getting annoying,"
requested Akane.
"No problem. Alright Luna, get in there," ordered Sailor Moon as she
roughly shoved Luna into her purse. Venus does the same with Artemis, only a
bit more gently.
"You realize I can't breathe in mrmfff..." Luna tried to get out before
Sailor Moon zipped the bag up.
"Cats! Cats everywhere!" Ranma was screaming.
"They're gone Ranma! Calm down now!" shouts Akane as she slugged Ranma yet
again. Ranma fell down, but at least he was no longer panicking.
"Back to the point, where is this Happosai?" asked Mercury. "If he is such
an evil and powerful threat, we might have to deal with him sooner or later."
"Mercury, have you ever thought," added Venus, "if the negaverse might try
to get him to join the negaverse, either through persuasion or force?"
"You're right," said Jupiter. "If he's powerful now, he would be
unstoppable if his powers get coupled with the negaverse."
"Alright then. Ranma," stated Mars, "you gotta show us where Happosai is.
We're going to have to take care of him now, no matter what the
consequences."
Sailor Moon, feeling left out of the conversation, can only shout an
unnecessary "Ya! What everybody else said except me, the leader of the
Sailor Scouts," she complained while staring wickedly at Mars.
"You know, I guess you girls aren't that bad fighters if you were able to
take down some of us. And I do think it's about time we rid ourselves of
Happosai once and for all," answered Ranma. "Who's with us?"
"You can count on me Ranma honey."
"Shampoo follow husband anywhere."
"Shampoo my love, where'd you go?" asked a still delirious Mousse.
"My blue hared beauty," cried Kuno as he came running back. "I have solved
the dilemma that has dammed the raging waters of our affection." He is about
to grab her but Ranma sticks his foot in his face.
"Saotome, do you attempt to lay claim to this beauty as well? Is your harem
not enough to suit you?"
"You should be one to talk about harem's Kuno!" yelled back Ranma.
Akane nudged Mercury and whispered "Kuno's harder to get rid of than a
cockroach." Amy just shook her head.
"Aside you defiler of women," Kuno said as he shoved his way past Ranma.
"Let 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," said Kuno as he
suddenly pulls a few dozen roses from behind his back to hand to Mercury. "I
shall smitten you with my unparalleled charm and woo you with romance all of
Paris could not compare with."
Amy blushed hard. The other sailor scouts notice this.
"Uh oh!" teased Sailor Moon. "Looks like Mercury has got herself a
boyfriend. What will Greg think Amy?"
"It's not like that!" disputes a totally red Mercury. "These are really
sweet Kuno, but I have to reject your kindness, I already have somebody,"
Mercury half lies.
"What! Surely this fool cannot compare to the wonder that is me!"
"Kuno, does this mean you no longer care for me," asked Akane with hope in
her eyes.
"No Akane Tendo, I could not part with you anymore than I could part with
the pig-tailed girl," answered Kuno nervously. "Surely a man such as I could
satisfy you all. I would not have you both, I would have you all!" Kuno
screamed while laughing maniacally. Ranma knocked him into a wall.
"Ranma," a worried Akane utters, "you aren't planning to kill him are you?"
"I sure would like to kill Kuno," answered Ranma.
"No, not Kuno. All of us would like to kill him. I'm talking about
Happosai."
"Uh, actually, I haven't really thought what we were going to do to him."
Everybody falls over with a huge blue drop on their heads.
"Come to think of it, I don't even know where he is."
Everybody falls down even lower.
"My honey bunny!" screamed a voice that gave Sailor Moon chills. "I like
the costume! Allow me to inspect it up close!" Happosai leapt straight at
Sailor Moon.
"AHHHH! It's him, it's the pervert!" cried Sailor Moon.
Jupiter slammed Happosai into the ground before he reached Sailor Moon.
"This shriveled up old letch is the most powerful man in the world?"
Suddenly, Happosai had stuck himself between Jupiter's breasts. "Oh my! So
many pretty ladies today! And all so full of robust energy!"
Ranma grabbed Happosai and threw him against a rock. "Not just the most
powerful, but also the most perverted."
"Okay scouts, let's do this while he's down," dictated Sailor Moon, actually
showing a flash of leadership.
All of them, even Kuno, had surrounded Happosai, prepared to gang up on him.
"Oh, so is that how it is? You may be next in line for the school of
Anything Goes Martial Arts Ranma, but I'm going to be around for a long time
to come," said Happosai as he began building his battle aura. The bright
blue energy emanating from him caught them all by surprise, as they shielded
their eyes from the bright energy.
"Everybody, get him before he fully powers up!" shouted Ranma.
All of a sudden, the fight is obstructed by a swirl of black energy that
blows everybody in random directions. "Tell me I don't have good timing,"
smirked Malachite as he emerged from the middle of the maelstrom.
"Happosai," Malachite declared, "today you shall experience true power!" He
floated to the downed Happosai and placed the palm of his hand onto his
forehead. A burst of energy surged into him. As Malachite removed his hand,
a negaverse symbol could be seen on his forehead.
"No! We're too late," screamed Mercury.
"Yes master Malachite," said a distinctly darker voice from Happosai.
"Today is the beginning of the end." 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 held up a sign saying "Hurry Up!"
"If I can delay a little longer," thinks Soun, "I'm sure Ranma will
interrupt this game. I can always count on that boy to cause a ruckus."
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 Soun's hair are
standing up..
"Ha ha Saotome. I guess we'll have to start all over again don't we?"

*New Notes: The old notes are redundant and it actually confused a few people
when it came to the time table, so I'm just axing them all from now on,
unless they said something significant. The only important thing it said was
this: "Send all comments and critics to chihokodan@aol.com." ^_^ Finals are
backing me up, so things are coming out a bit slower than I'd like, but I
might start sending things out more rapidly sometime this weekend because I
want to get most of it out before school ends. Due to the time constraints,
I'm going to have to release Ranma: Four Fiance's And A Funeral concurently
with the "New Edition." So I guess I'm going to have to plug it here and
now. Most people on my ML know of the April Fools thing about the last Ranma
OAV, so since it's based on an OAV that'll never happen, it's taking place
outside of my fanfic continuity and I'm going to try to keep it somewhat
faithful to the final manga while trying to make it seem like an actual anime
episode. It's far shorter than my usual fair, but I'm going to try to do
what Takahashi-sensie didn't do with Ranma #38... Give this wonderful series
a defenitive end (Fitting considering it's also my swan song when it comes to
fanfics). Go into this more later, and I hope everyone checks it out.
