Incarnations of Darkness:
The Dawning of the Demons
by Laocorn
PROLOGUE
Gazing out over the burning wasteland that was his domain the Demon King
turned to adress the one he called to his tower.
"Hello Ryingo. It has been long since I have seen my most powerful
subject. You may rise."
Ryingo stood from a kneeling position on the cool marble floor. His long
black hair contrasting with the white marble. His muscles tensed beneath
copper skin as he wondered what the king had called him for.
"You have quite an impressive record, Ryingo," the Demon King continued,
"numerous powerful talents including shape shifting,the control of weather,
phasing, creation of objects, and many others as well as an amazing ki
ability. I was suprised to find out it almost surppasses my own."
"I appreciate your majesties praise, but what did you summon me for?"
The Demon King walked back to the window and beckoned for Ryingo to come.
>From this vantage point a swirling circular mas of purple and red could be
seen growing constantly bigger.
"As you know soon a portal to the mortal world will once again open. For
the past thousand years we have been trying to accumulate enough energy to
create the portal. Have you heard the deal that we made with the humans
when we first penetrated the barrier?"
"It was far beyond my time o' great King."
"Then I will tell it to you. Ten thousand years ago we first breached the
mortal world. We were held off by their powerful ki abilities, but we were
triumphant in getting to their most powerful martial artist. He destroyed
all of our army. Finally only the General his five Lietenants remained. As
he banished the five Lieutenants to the Dead Zone the General and he faced
off. In the end they were equally matched and decided to make a deal with
each other.
The demons would be confined to their world for all time unless they could
defeat the most experienced and powerful martial artist in the world. They
would only be allowed to send one demon into the mortal world at a time
providing it was not the King of Demons. It would also take vast amounts of
energy to power this trans-dimensional teleportation, but if the martial
artist was defeated the demons would take over the world. Unfortunately we
can not make this teleportation permanent. The chosen demon had a matter of
three days to find and destroy the martial artist before he is pulled back
to the Demon Realm.
To seal their pact they created the basis for the gate and joined the
Lietenants in the Dead zone."
"This is all well and good, but what does it have to do with me?"
The Demon King's eyes sparkled with an inner fire as he said the next four
words. "You have been chosen."
Ryingo's eyes glittered with delight. 'The mortal world? Imagine what fun
I could have there with my vast power.' He sighed inwardly. 'Only three
days though. Three days to find and destroy the martial artist. This will
be far to easy'.
The Demon Kings voice pulled him back to reality. "Do not fail my Ryingo
or my wrath will be great. I greatly desire to see the human world. Also if
you find any supplies of energy you will be outfitted with a
trans-dimensional energy converter that sends the energy to us. You will
have only one of these objects so it will have to be a vast supply that you
choose."
Ryingo gulped. " I won't f-fail your majesty."
The Demon King smiled. "I'm sure you won't Ryingo. You could also play
around with the humans in that world for fun. We are creatures of desire
and impulse you know."
Ryingo smiled again. "I won't fail you in that area either my lord."
"Of that I am certain, Ryingo."
A day later the gate was open and Ryingo passed from the Demon world to
the Human world.
'When I find the martial artist I will give him a death that is unmatched'
thought Ryingo as he stepped into the swirling mass of colors.
"Ranma no Baka!" Akane shouted as she lunged at him with the Mallet. Ranma
dodged to the side and jumped from the fence running towards the school.
"Akane, you stupid tomboy. I just said you could use a brush up on
cooking. It could cause a nuclear meltdown if your not careful." Ranma said
as he made a face at her.
"RANMA, I'M GOING TO CATCH YOU AT SCHOOL AND KILL YOU!,"Akane shouted as
she ran after him.
'Stupid tomboy couldn't cook if her life depended on it.' Ranma thought as
he dodged another swing of the mallet.
"You missed agai--" he started to call when Akane connnected with the
front of his face. Ranma fell to the ground twitching from the force of the
blow.
"Get up Ranma we have to get to school or we're gonna be late." Akane
picked up Ranma and slapped him back to reality.
"WHATCHA DO THAT FOR!,"he shouted.
"That was for calling my cooking toxic, you stupid jerk."
"You know I was just kidding," he said rubbing his head. Just as he said
this they both heard the school bell go off and began running towards
Furinkan High School.
"Class, we have a new student that just arrived from a distant country,"
Miss Hinako intoned in a booming voice.
"He is here on a short stay and decided to join this school. I want you to
all be nice to him. It says here," she said holding up a description, "that
he is a martial artist and came here for some competition."
Ranma sighed and layed his head down on his desk and drifted off to sleep.
He was awoken by a yardstick slamming down on top of his head.
"Ranma, I was just about to give the name of the student and you begin
dozing off. What do you have to say for yourself."
"Aw Miss Hinako I.."
"Need detention,"Miss Hinako said.
Turning back to the class she said, "Let's all give a warm welcome to
Ryingo."
Ryingo walked into the class and began looking it over. 'Hmm it's not
much. Let's see what we have on the more ethereal scale' he thought
switching to a vision that guaged ki and not color.
A few glowed with fire and a few shone quite brightly. The teacher to his
surprise registered as a vortex. 'Amazing' he thought 'they incorported a
ki vampire to run this class.'
He realized as this thought crossed his mind that everyone was staring at
him. A bead of sweat trickeled down his forehead.
"Ah, Hi everyone."
"Ryingo you sit here next to Akane and Ranma"
'Perfect' thought Ryingo' they glow with a healthy ki and this girl Akane
was not half bad looking.'
As the bell rang for lunch the class scattered. Ryingo sat in his desk and
wondered what all of the commotion was. Only the ones called Akane and Miss
Hinako were left in the room. He stared around and wondered what to do.
Miss Hinako and Akane blinked.
"Do you think he knows whats happening," Akane said to Miss Hinako.
"I don't know," Miss Hinako stated," Perhaps it worked differently in his
country."
"Ah, Mr. Ryingo do you know what that bell meant."
Ryingo blinked.
"Its time for lunch," Akane said.
Ryingo blinked.
"You know... time to eat," Akane said. 'What is he weird or something'
Ryingo blinked and thought back to his briefing. He briefly remembered the
word eat. It meant to ingest nutrients. Apparently these humans didn't
assimilate energy like demons did.
Ryingo got up and walked to were Akane and Miss Hinako were standing.
"Where exactly do we.... eat?" he said puzzled.
Miss Hinako did a double take and Akane's eyes became bigger than her
head.
"You must have passed the cafateria on the way in. It's just down the
hall."
Realizing he looked stupid he laughed shrilly "Ha Ha Oh the C..afet..eria
of course. Do you suppose you could refresh my memory?"
Akane sighed and grabbed his hand.
The cafateria was in chaos. People were climbing over each other in an
attempt to get to the best food. Ranma was just climbing out of the pile
with some food as he saw Akane with the new kid.
Running out of the mass of flesh that looked like some hideous experiment
gone awry he started toward Akane.
"Hey if you planned to buy your lunch your out of luck," he said
matter-o-factly to Ryingo.
"Well Ranma I'm sure you'll be happy to share with him then," Akane said
with an evil grin, "After all Miss Hinako told us to be nice."This was
payback for the "toxic cooking" joke.
"Aw jeez Akane I don't wan--" he was cut short as he saw Akane reach for
the Mallet "--t to eat all this sure he can have some," Ranma said quickly.
They left the cafacteria to go to a more civilized and less violent place.
Namely outside of the school near the recess area. Soon they cleared the
doors of the school and were sitting under a tree.
The predator outside the gates saw this as an oppurtunity. Vaulting the
wall she cleared the distance and with a ferocious cry lept at her intended
prey.
"Nihao, Ranma. Shampoo brought special Ramen noodles just for you. Is made
by Grandmother and Shampoo. As thanks you take Shampoo on date, right
Ranma?" she said in about the space of two seconds.
"Oh hi Shampoo." he said with a sigh. Processing what she said his mind
locked on one word. His mood instantly changed.
"Did you say you brought food!?" he said almost drooling in eagerness.
"Yes. You take Shampoo on date?" she said slyly
"Ya, ya anything for food." he said quickly and was promptly whacked over
the head with the Mallet so hard he hit the ground.
"Hiya! Shampoo stay to watch Ranma eat ramen. Ranma? Now where he go?"
she said accidently stepping on his head.
"Shampoo, we are in school right now. Not that I care what you and Ranma
do, but do it some other time," Akane said angrily.
Shampoo picked up Ranma and dusted him off.
"I eat with Ranma as soon as he come to." she said faithfully. As she said
this she put Ranma near the tree and tried to wake him up.
"Who is that." Ryingo asked as Akane began to cool down.
"That was Shampoo. She is one of Ranma's adoring fans," she said grinding
her teeth together so much that it made Ryingo wince at the sound."
Instantly she reverted to her old self. "It's not like I care," she said
with a smile, "Ranma can be with whoever he wants to."
Akane chose a tree not far from the one Ranma was recovering under and sat
down. Ryingo came and sat down next to her.
"I have a question, " he asked curiously, " what is your relation to
Ranma?"
"Our parents set up our engagement to each other," she said again grinding
her teeth.
"Oh" he stated simply looking at what he had in his hand. Apparently this
was what was called "food" and he was supossed to "eat" this. 'I wonder how
I should go about doing that. Oh, well when in doubt ask Akane."
"Akane exactly what am I suposed to do with this," he said holding up the
rice. As soon as he said this Akane's mouth unhinged and dropped two feet.
"What do you mean what do you do with this?" she asked wondering if she
heard him wrong.
"I mean how am I suposed to eat this," he exclaimed looking at the food
skeptically.
"You must be kidding me." Akane said.
Ryingo looked at the ground.
She sighed. 'I suppose I'll have to teach him.'
"Open up," she said.
"What?"
"Open your mouth."
Ryingo obediantly opened his mouth. In response Akane began to feed rice
into the gaping mouth.
In the tree were Ranma was just begginging to come to Shampoo looked over
to see Akane feeding another boy. 'Oh Ranma. Finally you will be Shampoo's
if Akane no want you.'
"Ranma," she said, "Look over there." Ranma weakly moved his eyes to where
Shampoo was pointing. Instantly he sprang to his feet and rubbed his eyes
in shock. There was HIS Akane feeding the new kid, Ryingo. His vision began
to haze red as he looked at them.
Following suit he moved to where Akane would be able to see him and put
his arm around Shampoo. Shampoo got that characteristic twinkle in her eye.
"Ranma you love Shampoo now?" she asked affectionately.
Ranma continued to stare at Akane not even hearing what Shampoo was
saying. When he didn't say anything Shampoo took the answer she wanted to
here.
"Hiya! You do love Shampoo. Kiss Shampoo Ranma."
The haze left Ranma's eye as he tried to keep the love crazy Shampoo off
of him.
"Whay the.. Shampoo get off me... jeez don't do that ...... come on stop
touching me there....."
Ryingo and Akane both looked over to see what looked like Ranma wrestling
with Shampoo in the grass. Akane began to glow a light blue and accidently
rammed the chopstick into Ryingo's cheek drawing black blood from the
wound. 'SHIT' thought Ryingo coloring the blood red with an illusion before
Akane could see it.
"Oh Ryingo I'm so sorry. Are you OK?" she asked worried.
" I'm fine really," he said.
"No your not I'm going to take you to see the school nurse," she said
standing him up and running him into the building. Running past the gym
Ryingo screeched to a halt pulling a blinking and confused Akane along with
him.
He entered the gym and Akane saw his eyes twinkle as she watched him.
'What's so special. Its only the Kendo club working out. This happens every
day.'
What Ryingo saw and what Akane saw were two different things. While Akane
saw the schools Kendo club led by none other than the great Tatewaki Kuno
Ryingo saw a chance for combat with people who had ki levels above normal.
Granted, they would be no challenge for him. He sneered 'Let's see how
pathetically weak thee humans really are.'
He stepped forward on to the mats and instantly everything went quite.
Kuno stepped forward and adressed Ryingo.
"Who are you oh mysterious one. Step off the mat or challenge me."
"Who are you?" asked Ryingo. 'Well I can't really blame him' Akane thought
'He doesn't know any better'. Without further adieu Kuno began his
monologue.
"Who am I? I am the rising new star of the Kendo world. My name strikes
fear into the hearts of all who hear it. I am the one they call the Blue
Thunder. I am Upperclassman Tatewaki Kuno!"
Ryingo thought about his for a moment. Then turning his back to Kuno he
shouted to Akane.
"How many more minutes till class?"
Akane looked at the clock. "About twenty minutes. Why?"
Turning back he addressed Kuno.
"All right it looks like I have more than two minutes so I except your
challenge," he said with a grin. Kuno turned in Akane's direction.
"Akane my love I will defeat this interloper and then you may shower me
with praise and your love," Kuno said confidently. Drawing his wooden sword
he prepared to fight a creature that, unbeknownest to him, had been chosen
to cros worlds for his fighting skills.
Akane didn't know this either. At the time she heard the words "I accept
your challenge" she began to fear for Ryingo's safety.
'Oh my god' she thought ' he's challenged Kuno. He's going to get himself
killed.'
While Kuno and Ryingo got into positions the word had rung out over the
school. Someone besides Ranma Saotome had challenged Kuno. Almost everyone
in the school including Ranma, Miss Hinako, and Shampoo turned out to see
the fight.
The general populace of the school wanted to see violence as Kuno usually
promised, Miss Hinako was interested in the possible battle aura she could
drain having been reduced to her child form,
Ranma wanted to see the person who had touched HIS Akane dead by himself or
Kuno, and Shampoo just tagged along.
"Alright Kuno I'll go easy on you. How about it? We wouldn't want the
great Tatewaki Kuno hurt now would we?" he said his voice dripping with
sarcasm.
"Silence, foul demon," shouted Kuno as he launched an attack. His wooden
sword flew at Ryingo at lightning speed in a swipe that would take a
persons head off. Ryingo caught the blade in one hand and snapped it like
so much firewood. A gasp rang through the crowd as splinters flew to the
edge of the mat. Talk began like wildfire in a forest.
"I thought Kuno was unbeatable.... Only Ranma's ever beat him..... This
guy must be tough.... I wonder if he's available?"
Kuno jumped to a defensive posture and retreated a few steps. His battle
aura began to glow as he realized this man was a dangerous threat.
"My turn already, Blue Thunder. I thought it would be longer than this." A
subtle and almost unnoticable change began to take effect on Ryingo. His
pupils went from circles to slits, his battle aura expanded to encompass
almost the whole mat and glowed a fearsome black, as he gathered ki for his
attack.
"Ryingo Special Attack BLACK LIGHTNING CRACKLE," he said calling on one of
his multiple attacks. A bolt of black energy crackled into being in his
hand. Without a seconds delay he aimed and threw the deadly energy at Kuno.
Kuno dodged the attack, almost. The energy struck him on the shoulder. Kuno
was thrown via a wave of force out of the ring and into the wall.
"Looks like I win, Kuno" he cackled gleefully. Kuno began to stand.
"You will adress me as Upperclassman." he said as he lost consciousness.
The crowd stood in complete silence. No one had ever defeated Kuno so
quickly and skillfully. Miss Hinako withdrew from the crowd and walked back
to her room. As the shock abated the class became a stampede to
congratulate the champion. Ryingo was lifted onto his back and thrown in
the air in tribute. 'I could get to enjoy this' he thought looking at his
admirerer's.
Ranma eluded Shampoo and raced to the rooftop. He needed to release some
anger and needed to do it fast.
"How could he defeat Kuno like that,"he said to no one," No one could be
that powerful. I have to defeat him to prove myself. I won't stop till I
see him defeated."
Akane ran up and grabbed Ryingo's arm.
"How did you do that," she cried in disbelief," No one has defeated Kuno,
but Ranma."
"Oh please, I think Kuno was highly overrated. You can't possibly expect a
poetry speaking, wooden sword wielding, loser like that is going to hold me
down."
"No one could be that good and be human."
Ryingo smiled a knowing, twisted smile.
"Can you teach that to me?" she said hopefully.
"No, not really its something you kind of have to... ah... be born with."
Akane lowered her eyes in anger. 'I can learn anything I'm strong and
smart.'
"I'll tell you what though. I'm not doing anything tonight... so why don't
I come over."
Akane felt like she had just crossed over into a dream. Her heart skipped
a beat as she agreed to him coming over for diner that night at 7:00.
As soon as Akane left Ryingo collapsed from the huge amount of ki he had
used influencing her reaction. 'She was a tough nut to crack as far as mind
control goes' he thought. 'Now Akane lets see if you and Ranma are the
martial artists you claim to be.'
"Miss Hinako I was only five minutes late for class," Ryingo exclaimed.
"Five minutes is long enough to snare you a detention. Meet me here after
school. You will be straightening up the room while Ranma claps the
erasers."
'I don't believe this I actually have to submit to this mortals rule. If
these were under different circumstances I would destroy her in a second.'
' Still' he thought as he watched a fully developed Miss Hinako walk away
' I might be able to find something interesting to do while I look for the
martial artist.'
After the bell rung and everyone was out of classes a pondering Miss
Hinako waited for Ranma and Ryingo.
'How do I get his ki level up enough so I can drain so much I can defeat
Ranma's next therapy session? I have to get him into his battle aura and
there are only two ways to do that. One is to pick a fight with him and
convince him that I'm a challenge. The other could give me a much better
time....'
Ranma walked into the classroom to find out what his detention would be.
"Ah..excuse me Miss Hinako what should I do for my detention."
Bringing her out of her reverie she thought about how she should go about
this.
"Ranma, I have decided to remove your detention."
Ranma stared dumbfounded at his good luck. This had never hapended to him
before, or anyone for that matter. What was going on here? 'Oh well better
get out of here before she changes her mind about this.
As Ranma left Ryingo entered the room. Ranma glared at him behind his
back, and then decided he had more important things to do. Unfortunately,
Shampoo was waiting outside for their promised date.
While a depressed Ranma was leaving the school on Shampoo's arm, Ryingo's
"punishment" was just getting started.
"Ryingo you have been a very bad boy," Miss Hinako said huskily. Ryingo's
eyes turned to gaze at Miss Hinako as he heard a familiar note of lust
enter her voice. Deciding to play along he bent his head in mock shame.
"Yes, I know Miss Hinako," he said sorowfully.
This was turning out better than she expected. The boy must actually fell
ashamed of being late for class. There was no possible way he could have
picked up on her plan. 'I'm going to enjoy this so much' she thought as she
unbuttoned her blouse enough to expose the round curves of her breasts.
She leaned over the desk he was sitting in to give him a good view of her
ample cleavage.
"You do know what we do to bad little boys, don't you."
He hardly heard her as he gazed intently at the milky mounds in front of
him. She was more well endowed than some of the demonesses he knew.
Realizing she was talking he picked up on the last few words.
"No, I don't," he said, " Would you care to show me?"
"It would be my pleasure," she said.
She leaned over the desktop and gave him a passionate kiss that would have
made a usual man putty in her hands. As it was he returned the kiss with
such vigor she almost gasped as she felt a heat begin to build between her
legs.
Slowly he moved around the desk and began to ease the blouse off. After
the blouse fell to the floor he realized that the nipples underneath her
silk bra were rock hard. He slowly tore open her bra and she gasped at how
forward he was.
As the bra fell to the floor she felt herself forcefully pushed on top of
her teacher's desk. She moaned out loud as he gently teased her nipples
with his fingers. He seemed to be very experienced for his age to Miss
Hinako. The truth was he was so old he made Cologne look like a young
child.
She hardly had time to think about his as she felt her pants being ripped
in half by Ryingo's eagerness. All the while he was gently teasing her
nipples enough so that it made her cry for more. As he tore the pants off
her legs he became more forceful in his neading of her breasts and the
pinching of her nipples. As he tore her panties open she cried out in pain
and pleasure as she realized how hard he was pleasuring her mounds.
She sat up and began to undo the front of his pants. Seeing this was too
slow she decided to use the technique he used. She tore off his pants
revealing his long member fully erect. This was the biggest she had ever
seen! She tore off his shirt as well wanting to reveal more of his body.
His chest appeared to be carved in stone as he slowly lowered himself on to
her.
He suckled her breast and then dove in recieving shrieks of pleasure for
his efforts. Hinako clutched his back to keep from bucking off the desk as
he entered her again and again. She howled and dug her nails into his back
as the first orgasm hit her. Black blood trickled out of the long scrapes
as he continued to pump her.
Inhuman endurance was good in this situation. Ryingo could hold out for
hours doing this. 'Miss Hinako was an amazing teacher' he thought and
smiled as she orgasmed again. He was devoting an steady stream of ki energy
to her mind to heighten her stimulation. It was, in short, the best sex she
was ever going to have.
She raised her head to his neck and began kissing down his chest as she
was assaulted by more waves of pleasure. He was continuously neading her
acking nipples and sending shock waves through her body. He pumped her
mercilessly as she began calling his name between moans. She felt the third
orgasm starting to build. He felt her tense and he pumped harder still as
he continued to fondle her breasts. She screamed his name and bit into his
shoulder drawing more black blood. Luckily her vision was starting to haze
so she didn't realize the color. He was slowly wearing her down.
As he continued fondling her breasts he kissed her and decided to let go
of his concentration. He let the waves of pleasure lap over him as he
assaulted her love tunnel. She wrapped her legs around his body as he
pumped her more fiercely than ever. He took one hand away from her left
breast and applied it to her tight ass. He cupped his mouth over her breast
and began licking circles around her nipple. As he tensed she realized what
was happening and that brought her over the edge. He pumped her one last
time and then the world exploded in stars as her tight lips squeezed every
last drop of liquid fire out of him.
Miss Hinako got up and fell to her knees on the school floor. She closed
her eyes and smiled. She got up succesfully this time and turned towards
Ryingo. His battle aura was small compared to what she had seen at the figh
tbut it would do. She turned towards him and began to drain his aura.
She opened her eyes when she realized nothing was happening. She should
feel the energy begin to course through her. She looked at him quizically.
"Is something wrong?" he asked smiling.
"No..no I don't think so." she took her clothes and left the room. She
stopped when she reached the door and looked back. The rivulets of black
blood were dripping down his back for her to see clearly. She turned back
to the door. 'I must be working to hard' she thought to herself.
He smiled when she was gone. He stretched and decided he should dress now.
Summoning a minimal amount of ki he used one of his lesser illusions.
"Kosheito Phantom Mask," he called out. A burst of light left him clothed
in a pair of pants and T-Shirt.
"Much better," he said to himself, "Watch out Akane here I come."
Tatewaki Kuno had just been discharged from the Nurse's office and gotten
himself a new sword. From his vantage point above the school he could see
everything. 'Let that cretin try that move again' he thought ' He will
know the wrath of Tatewaki Kuno.' He began laughing maniacally as he saw
Ryingo come out of the school doors.
"Revenge is sweet, interloper, " he called as he jumped from his perch.
Ryingo saw Kuno coming phased twenty feet away to were a tree stood.
"A practitioner of Black Magic are you. I will bring you to justice evil
one, " Kuno cried as he launched another attack. Ryingo jumped above the
attack and landed behind Kuno.
"I have had enough you pompous jerk," Ryingo said, "I just had a perfectly
wonderful time and you have to spoil the day with your mortal view of
justice. THIS time you won't be so lucky."
"I shall defeat you and claim Akane Tendou once more. You might try to
tarnish her virtue with your base lusts, but I, Blue Thunder, will reclaim
her. You are a pathetic excuse for a man truly just a snake in the grass."
"A snake am I?" Ryingo said. His form gradually shifted to become more
serpentine. His forked tongue shot out of his head. "Let'sss ssssee if you
can take out the ssssnake"
Ryingo's head shot forward as powerful jaws dripping with poison awaiting
the kill. Kuno dodged to the left with another mumbled comment about Black
Magic. Seeing that he had missed that attack he turned again on Kuno. This
time Kuno jumped over the bite and slammed his wooden sword into Ryingo's
nostril. Black blood spurted from the wound and Ryingo shrieked in pain.
'Perhaps this mortal has some talent after all' he thought grimly 'I'll
have to finish him off quickly'.
Again he attacked Kuno, but pulled back as Kuno executed the same jump
attack.
"Stupid mortal," Ryingo hissed as he loosed an acidic glob of venom at
Kuno.
"Shit," shouted Kuno as the glob narrowly missed his midsection and landed
on his leg. It began to pop and sizzle as the acid eat away at Kuno's leg
like a hungry animal. Kuno screamed in pain and fell to the ground.
'Damn it I was hoping to just incapacitate him for a while' he thought.
'How I hate having to open veins on purpose.' He sighed inwardly and formed
a clawed hand. Dragging it across his palm he let the drops of blood land
on Kuno's leg. The leg began to gradually reform to how it was before the
acid.
"Mortals are such pathetically weak creatures," he mumbled, "So easy to
manipulate as well. I wonder how that Shampoo creature would take it if
Ranma was to come and give her a visit." With a maniacal laugh he began to
reform his body to suit the purpose at hand.
"Oh, Ranma. Shampoo have such lovely time at date," Shampoo said softly
standing beneath the door of the Kat Kafe. She slowly leaned forward
expecting a good night kiss.
"Well thanks Shampoo. Now I have to go home, goodbye," he said quickly.
Shampoo hardly heard him as he ran off into the night. She heard a soft
thump as something contacted with the ground. Then strong arms were around
her in a passionate kiss. 'Ranma?' she thought quizzically. 'Shampoo
usually have to twist arm to get kiss'.
She opened her eyes to see non other than her knight in shining armor,
Ranma. 'That's funny' she thought ' Shampoo thought Ranma's eyes were brown
not yellow. Oh, well'
"You love Shampoo now Ranma?" she asked hopefully.
"With all my heart Ranma," Ranma whispered. Ryingo chuckled gleefully
inside his Ranma form. 'So easily manipulated these mortals' he thought.
"You want marry Shampoo now?" she asked happily.
"Of course. Why else would I kiss you," he said smiling. Even though he
had no idea what this word "marriage" meant.
"HIYA! We must tell Grandmother," Shampoo cried while smiling from ear to
ear.
"Grandmother?" Ranma/Ryingo questioned.
"You know Grandmother Cologne. Surely Ranma remember her."
"Oh that Grandmother, of course. I thought you were talking your other
grandmother."
"Silly Ranma. You know I have only one grandmother."
Ranma/Ryingo blushed and sheepishly agreed. Opening the doors he
unneringly entered the line of battle.
"Ranma, I'm going to kill you," Mousse yelled as he launched a frenzy of
attacks. Shampoo ran into the kitchen while Ranma/Ryingo and Mousse fought.
Ranma/Ryingo blocked the thousands of chains that came from Mousse's
sleeves with ease. 'Hmm. THIS is interesting' he thought. 'I've never seen
such a vast supply of extra dimensional energy. This could be of some use
to us'.
Ranma/Ryingo grabbed the energy device that the Demon King had given him
and launched it at Mousse. It scored a direct hit entering the sleeve of
his gi. 'The Demon King will be most pleased' he thought happily.
Mousse launched another volley of chains at him. Again he blocked with
little difficulty. Shampoo came back from her trip to the kitchen with a
bucket of water.
"Mousse," she yelled, "shame on you." She promptly tossed the bucket of
water on Mousse. Mousse waddled towards Ranma and began quacking angrily.
Ranma/Ryingo stared dumbfoundedly. What had just happened here?
"Well hello, future son-in-law. What brings you here?" said a old voice.
Ranma/Ryingo turned around to see Cologne step out of the kitchen.
'Interesting. She radiates a very strong ki. This could be the one. I had
better watch my step.' Ryingo thought before answering.
"Ranma want to marry Shampoo. Isn't this exciting Granmother."
"Indeed it is child. After three thousand years I'm finally going to see
my grandchild get married," she said with a smile, "It seemed like
yesterday when you battled for her Ranma."
Ranma/Ryingo's ears perked at this. "Battled," he asked hopefully.
"Well yes it's the Amazon's tradition. If you defeat the Amazon then you
have earned the right to marry her," Cologne said. Her son-in-law might be
strong, but he could hardly remember the most important things.
'This sounds a lot like Demon tradition. We do the same thing around
Spawning time. The dominant males battle for the best females. I wonder if
marriage is just another word for sex here' he thought to himself.
"Yes, I wish to marry with your granddaughter," he said proudly having
figured out the word.
"Fine, we'll have the ceremony in a week. How does that sound son-in-law."
"Um..er.. a week is not to good for me. How about right now," he asked
hopefully. He eagerly gazed at Shampoo's feminine form as desire coursed
through his veins.
'This isn't like Ranma' Cologne thought susupiciously 'Perhaps its an
imposter. I had better make Shampoo fight this person to make sure its
really him.'
"I think two days is the least that we can plan the ceremony for. First
how about we have a battle between you love birds."
'Hmm. Two days is cutting it very close. I might have to.... did she say
battle?'
"Battle," he asked drooling out of the corner of one mouth. Realizing he
was doing this he closed his mouth and asked again.
"Why of course son-in-law I want to see what kind of a fighter my Shampoo
is marrying. She won't go easy on you, you know." Cologne said.
"Grandmother I no want to fight Ranma. He my future husband. I no want him
damaged on the Honeymoon," Shampoo said happily.
"Come on Shampoo. Its just a little fight. I won't hurt you to badly. I
promise," Ranma said.
"All right then let the battle begin then," Cologne said smiling. She was
positive this wasn't Ranma and no one else could beat her Shampoo.
"Ranma, I no want hurt you," Shampoo said worriedly.
"Don't worry I don't bruise easily," he said with a laugh, "Its your move
Shampoo."
Shampoo raced at him fists flying. She launched herself into the air and
spiraled towards Ryingo in a kicking and punching frenzy. Ryingo saw the
barrage and lifted a few inches off the ground to prevent a foot sweep. He
casually blocked the punches and kicks as if a fly was trying to bite him.
He gasped in pain suddenly as a sharp kick connected with his side. Shampoo
planted another kick in his midsection and launched herself a few yards
away by pushing off his chest.
Ryingo got himself under control as his battle aura began to form. This
girl was quite a fighter. He could learn to like her.
Leaping the distance between her and his position he performed a high
kick, low kick, sweep combination that Shampoo blocked skillfully. He
tucked and rolled back to his former position. This would be harder than he
suspected!
She again launched into a similar attack routine. He was bracing himself
for it and executed a five kick combination that sent Shampoo flying back
to the wall. She slowly got up and prepared herself for his attack.
He didn't want to harm this beautiful example of woman hood so he decided
on a knockout finish tecknique. Summoning just enough ki he launched his
technique.
"Ryingo Special Attack AURA BLAST," he said forming a bolt of pure energy
that hit Shampoo squarely in her ample chest. She was blown to the wall,
but again recovered from the attack. 'That's impossible. No mortal should
be able to keep consciousness at a blast of that magnitude."
As he stood there shocked checking the power he had put into it Shampoo
came at him. Executing seven kicks in the air upon his chest and stomach
she reduced him to a crumpled pile of pain.
'No' his mind screamed 'she is mortal this cannot happen.' He rose and
again executed a technique.
"Ryingo Special Attack DEMONIC PULSE." Waves of force spread in a circular
patern from his fists and formed into a single beam of energy. Shampoo was
assaulted by a wave of force that caught her on the legs causing her knees
to buckle. As she fell she began to lose consciousness.
"I have won," he said as he blacked out from pain and ki usage.
Ranma had finished his walk home from Shampoo's house to the Tendo Dojo
and had just opened the gate. He opened the door to the kitcehn and met
face to face with Akane.
"Oh jeez Akane you scared me to death. What are you doing in the kitchen?"
Just as she removed the Mallet he realized what he said was not the right
thing.
SLAM
"What do you mean 'What am I doing in the kitchen?'"Akane shouted. "I'm
cooking dinner for a guest who's going to arrive in an hour."
"Oh really," he teased, "Who is it that Ryingo guy or something."
"As a matter of fact it is."
"Wha-- Akane you can't be serious."
"And why not? You went out wiht Shampoo today."
"Ya,but that's different. Its your fault anyway since I had to share my
food with him. Besides if you want impress him better order take out. You
don't want to kill him on your first date."
"Ranma NO BAKA," Akane screamed in anger chasing him with the Mallet.
"This is most peculiar," Cologne said to herself. She carefully prodded
the now reformed body of Ryingo. With his concentration broken his shape
had returned to his natural form.
Shampoo slowly tried to get up at the other side of the room. Mousse was
guarding her by sitting on her stomach. She pushed him off of her and
lokked around. Everything was hazy for a second and then her vision
cleared.
There was Grandmother with a strange man. Mousse poked around trying to
find his glasses. Where was Ranma though? He had vanished. Shampoo began to
sob. Maybe he didn't want her after all!
She walked over to her grandmother just as Ryingo began to stir.
"Look at this Shampoo. It appears our Ranma was an imposter," she said.
"What do you mean Grandmother?"
"After he defeated you he collapsed and lost his form. His body took on
this shape instead."
"You mean like Jell-O, Grandmother," Shampoo giggled.
"Yes that's exactly what I mean."
"Look Grandmother he starting to wake up."
Ryingo groaned and shook his head. His long black hair dropped down to his
shoulder. 'Wait a second' thought Ryingo ' This form doesn't have long
hair.....OH SHIT. Get it together and hope they didn't see you.
Before Shampoo and Cologne his body collased into a kind of black liquid
that reformed to take Ranma's shape. A he looked up he encountered
Shampoo's round eyes and knew that he had made a mistake.
"How you do that?" Shampoo asked.
"Ahh..eerr....special technique I learned somewhere around... this place..
ha... maybe not," he mumbled.
"What is your name. It is definately not Ranma for I know my son-in-law
could not do THAT," said Cologne.
"My name is Ryingo. Bow down to me and you will live," he said.
"Oh for pity sake. You couldn't kill a fly in the condition your in. Come
with me we'll put you to bed."
"One moment and I'll be as good as new," he said gasping as he tried to
raise the needed ki. Finally achieving the level he needed he released it
and collapsed again.
Intantly his body bagan to rebuild itself. His ki level rose phenominally
and his wounds began to heal. Shampoo watched in disbelief as this
hapenned. Cologne was hardly suprised after the shape shift, but this
creature truly must be formidible indeed to be able to perform such a
technique.
Within moments he stood again and rose to his feet. Looking around the
room he stopped on the clock It was 6:53. Now why did he have a nagging
feeling he was supposed to be somewhere? 'Ohmigod his mind thougth quickly
Akane and I have a meeting.' After that thought he promptly phased to the
Tendo Dojo.
"Grandmother, he fought me and won, right?" Shampoo asked.
"Why yes that's right why do you ask," Cologne said turnig towards
Shampoo.
"Do I marry him or Ranma then?"
Cologne looked thoughtful a moment and then a frown spread across her
face. "Oh dear," she said.
Akane sat at the table with her family. 'Where is he' she thought looking
at the clock. It read 6:58. 'He should be here by n--," just then there was
a knock on the door.
"I'll get it," Akane called. She got up and ran to the door. Opening it
she found Ryingo standing and gazing around the Tendo Dojo.
"Won't you come in, Ryingo," she said politely.
"Don't mind if I do," he said with a smile.
Akane walked in with Ryingo and encountered the watching eyes of her
family. Nabiki had a twisted smile on her lips. Kasumi was grinning. Genma
and Soun looked puzzled (as always) and Ranma and P-Chan were fuming mad
though Ranma tried not to show it.
"And who might this be Akane," said Nabiki the twisted smile still etched
in her face. The familiar equation of "Secrets + Person = Money" running
through her head.
Akane blushed slightly. "This is the new kid in our school his name is
Ryingo. He practices martial arts."
"Oh, Akane sounds like the perfect guy for you," Nabiki continued
relentlessly. Akane blushed furiously and glared at her sister.
"Let's just eat Nabiki," she said finding her tongue again, "I've prepared
a special dish for everyone tonight.
Everyone looked worried, everyone but Ryingo. "Well let's eat then," he
said happily. Everyone stared in disbelief as Ryingo sat down.
Akane put the plates down in front of everyone. All but Ryingo looked at
them fearfully as if the main course might eat them instead of the other
way around. Nabiki leaned over and whispered to Ryingo, "I wouldn't eat
that if I were you. You could die of food poisoning."
Ryingo just sat and began to eat the food Akane had prepared. Everyone
stared at him as he put the food into his mouth and swallowed. He had
finished his plate in a matter of minutes and was happily looking at
everyone when he realized their plates were still full.
Ranma leaned across the table and poked Ryingo in the nose. "OK, he's
still alive maybe her cooking wasn't as bad as it wa--" Ranma said as the
Mallet connected with the back of his head.
"Why is something supposed to be wrong with Akane's food," he asked
casually. Considering he was immune to toxins and didn't really taste the
food as it went down he was unsuspecting.
"Maybe she finally learned how to cook," Soun said happily. He lifted his
chopsticks and began to eat the food. In two seconds he turned blue then
red and purple as the taste hit him.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH," Soun screamed in pain as the food touched
his tongue. He quickly downed five cups of tea and then fell unconscious.
"Actually it looks like its worse than usual," said Nabiki poking Soun
with a chopstick.
"I didn't think it was so bad," said Ryingo. Akane looked at Ryingo with
stars in her eyes. Finally someone who appreciated her cooking.
As Soun recovered Ryingo looked around the Dojo. Seeing the fighting area
made his heart sing once more and he promised himself he would fight after
a looked around. Unknowingly he accidently walked into Happosai's room.
A huge pile of Happosai's "collection" marked the entrance.Ryingo heard a
call coming nearer and nearer to the Dojo.
"What a haul, WHAT A HAUL," shouted Happosai as he entered through the
roof. Ignoring Ryingo completely he began unpacking his bag of "silky
treasures" letting them fall on his head as he lay back in happiness.
Ryingo picked up one of the blue bras on the pile for closer inspection.
Happosai seemed not to notice so Ryingo brought it with him to the main
house.
Once inside and realizing Soun was completely recovered he walked up to
Akane.
"What's this," he asked holding up the blue bra for her to see.
"That's MINE," she shouted, " what are you doing with it."
"I picked it up in that funny little man's room."
"Happosai," Akane growled grinding her teeth.
"I noticed that you have a combat arena," he said trying to change the
subject.
"Oh, you mean the training hall," Kasumi said. She helped Soun up.
"Perhaps you would like to spar with someone," she said, " It might be a
fun way to end the evening."
His eyes glittered as he heard the familiar word.
The Tendo and Saotome family sat in the training hall and watched Ryingo
warm up.
"Anyone care to challenge me?" he said casually, "I'll go easy on you."
Akane jumped up and accepted as everyone knew she was waiting to do. As
Akane warmed up Ranma watched from the side. As soon as this Ryingo was
worn down he would take him on for Akane.
As Akane and Ryingo assumed fighting stances. Ryingo again took on his
combat change. His eyes went from circular pupils to reptilian slits as the
lust for violence took him over.
As they began to fight unknown to anyone Happosai had climbed in the room
to see if he could retrieve his property.
Akane launched her first attack with a simple roundhouse kick aimed at his
head. As her leg arced he grabbed it and flipped her across the mat. She
landed on her feet (barely) and ran towards him again. This time he dodged
every kick that she threw at him. As she finished he returned with a
sweeping kick that knocked her off her feet.
She jumped up again and he smiled at her. She attacked him fearlessly now.
Hit after hit kick after kick he blocked or dodged with inhuman strength
and speed. Finally deciding he had had enough he struck three pressure
points on her neck. The first caused her knees to buckle and give out. The
second her arms became incapacitated. The third removed leg movement.
Everyone stared in disbelief as Ryingo casually carried Akane out of the
ring and struck the back of her neck. Mobility returned as she lowered her
head at her defeat.
"Who's next?" he asked not even having broken a sweat or breathing hard.
Happosai jumped at this and landed in the ring.
"I challenge you," said Happosai, "If I win you'll return the property you
stole from me. Deal?"
" I accept your challenge Happosai."
"Oh no. The master has challenged poor Ryingo to combat. He doesn't stand
a chance," Soun began to sob and cry.
Happosai laughed cruelly as his battle aura began to glow. "I'm gonna take
you down," Happosai said, "you're gonna be sorry you ever touched my silky
treasures.
Ryingo cackled," So this is the way you want to play it. Well battle auras
it is then."
Ryingo's battle aura flared in reply as its inky blackness moved to fill
the room. Ryingo launched himself with lightning quick speed at Happosai.
Caught off guard Happosai took a hit to the arm before he recovered and
blocked.
Happosai leaped into the air. "Happosai Bean Jam Blowout," he called as
the wind began to rise around him. A tornado swept towards Ryingo. It
struck him and he barreled through the walls of the Tendo Dojo.
"That'll teach him, " Happosai said.
Eerie laughter filled the room as Happosai turned to look in the direction
that he hit Ryingo. Happosai realized that he had not completely defeated
his opponent so he jumped out of the hole to follow Ryingo.
Ryingo stood atop the wall of the Tendo Dojo and glared at Happosai.
"Truly I expected less from a tiny pathetic pervert like yourself. You
have no idea what you're up against old man."
"It doesn't matter," shouted Happosai, "I'll kick you to China."
Ryingo jumped from the wall to the outside of the Tendo Dojo. Happosai
realized that it was exactly what Ryingo wanted, but he didn't care. As
Happosai followed Ryingo he began to realize what an amazing amount of ki
this man was preparing.
As Ryingo came to the nearby park he phased a safe distance to the middle
as Happosai rounded the bend.
"Now I've got you," cried Happosai, "There's no place you can run."
Ryingo raised his arms skyward as he gathered ki.
"Darkness and Light, Fire and Water, heed my call," shouted Ryingo.
Happosai felt a growing quantity of ki build and something that was vaguely
familiar....Black Magic? 'No' Happosai thought this boy is only about
Ranma's age it takes centuries to master even the rudimentaries of the
Black Art.
"Morning and Twilight, Earth and Air, obey me," shouted Ryingo. Happosai
was just coming to realize that perhaps this was a bit dangerous as the
incantation was finished.
"Abysmal Power rise from your dormant state and empower me," Ryingo
called," RYINGO ULTIMATE TECHNIQUE DEMON FIRE ANNHIALATION."
A whirling black energy collased around Ryingo and rose to become a huge
pillar of light that shrieked skyward. Happosai had only seconds to marvel
at this as a pillar of black force shot outward engulfing him. A shock wave
leveled most of the park equipment as Happosai fought to keep his battle
aura from collapsing. A gout of flame licked at his flesh as it spread to
pound at his battle aura with unseen hands. Freezing claws ripped at his
battle aura at last bringing it down. The last stage of the attack rose
from the laughing Ryingo as a void of pure blackness swept across the
unprotected Happosai. Happosai gradually lost consciousness as he realized
the mistake of challenging one he knew so little about.
At the Tendo Dojo the family was just opening the huge gates as the sonic
force hit them. Heat and cold washed over them in steady streams as the
technique finished.
Smoke was everywhere as the Tendo family saw a shadow appear in the haze.
As Ryingo emerged from the dust choked area carrying the battered Happosai
the family stared.
"He'll be all right," said Ryingo. With that he turned and left.
Day one had finished and he was no father along finding the martial artist
than at the begining.
"Students," said Miss Hinako, "it appears that Ryingo is not here today.
If any of you see him will you please tell him what was done today in
class. RANMA, stop sleeping and open your book."
The day passed without event and it seemed that Ryingo had been all but
forgotten. Everyone seemed to have forgotten him, but Shampoo. The only
other man besides Ranma that had defeated her had to leave. He even said he
would be willing to marry her. She pondered over this for some time and
finally decided she would set out to look for him.
Hopping on her trusty bicycle she began to peddle around town in search of
her lost Prince Charming. She didn't have to look to far.
As she crested the top of a hill he was walking toward her apparently deep
in thought. She launched into her usual stance and lept off the bike.
"Nihao, Ryingo, "she said knocking him onto the ground.
"Oh.... hi Shampoo," he said casually.
"You still want marry Shampoo now?" she teased.
Staring at her ample chest he decided that he VERY much wanted to "marry"
Shampoo.
"Um..," he gulped," s--sure."
"HIYA! Grandmother perform ceremony and we be happy." She sighed and lay
down to rest. 'She could have picked a better spot than the street and on
me' he thought picking up the already sleeping Shampoo.
He carried her back to the Kat Kafe and put her in a bed. He then began to
get back to what he was thinking.
'How do I find the martial artist without a lot of trouble. I could gather
everyone in the city with a ki rating and destroy them with the Demon Fire.
That take far more than a day though.'
Sighing he went to ckeck on Shampoo to see if she was awake yet. As he
came to where he had left her he evaluated the situation before him.
Shampoo's bed was empty. Shampoo had left a trail of clothes to the
bathroom. His mind slowly began to register something. Shampoo was naked.
As he entered the bathroom something else registered. Shampoo was naked and
there was water running. As he looked around the door. His heart stopped
and his mind refused to register what was obvious. After a while he came to
his senses.
Shampoo sat at the edge of a full tub staring at him as naked as the day
she was born. She had a look in her eye that he recognized when a cat
played with a mouse. She stood up and walked over to him.
'Calm down' he told himself as she came closer 'I should calm down and
then I should...'
Shampoo had closed the distance between him and looked at him.
"Ryingo look tense," she whispered in his ear, "Rynigo look like he could
use bath. Ryingo want take bath with Shampoo?"
He numbly moved his head up and down. She was a BIG girl for her age. She
went over to the tub and lay down in the steaming water. Raising a finger
she twitched it towards him beckoning him to come.
He instantly began jumping out of his clothes and in moments he was in the
tub with Shampoo. With that still catlike look on her face she started
closing hte small distance between her and Ryingo. She smiled seductively
as she bent over him.
"Why Ryingo so tense? Want Shampoo to wash you?," she said her brown eyes
shining. She didn't even wait for an answer as she began to gently massage
his back. His muscles released from their frozen state and he relaxed
enourmously. As he relaxed Shampoo began to gradually move down his body
until she found what she was looking for.
"My, My," she said, "Ryingo big boy."
He turned around and pushed Shampoo to his front.
"I think you've done enough Shampoo, allow me."
He removed the soap from her hand and began to rub her shoulders. Shampoo
new as well as Ryingo what would happen as he slowly lowered his massaging
hands.
Shampoo gasped in delight as the electrical current shot from her nipples.
She twitched as the pleasure roiled over her and Ryingo smiled in
satisfaction. He kept one hand on her breast and moved the other further
South.
She trembled slightly as he began to touch her virgin lips. As he
continued to knead her breasts in one hand he entered her with two fingers.
Her cry of delight was cut off as he kissed her. Slowly he began to rub
circles around her swelling clit as she continued to squirm and try to cry
out.
"My you're trying to be a loud one aren't you my dear," Ryingo said as he
began to exert his ki to make the stimulation greater. He slowly entered
her with a third finger and began to rub the inside of her love tunnel. As
he continued to assail her helpless love tunnel she decided she wouldn't be
the only one squirming. She reached around her back and found what she was
looking for.
Ryingo gasped in pleasure as she began to rub his member. He sped up his
hand movement and she moaned as he brought her towards the edge. In
retaliation she sped up her pleasuring breaking his concentration. He
orgasmed and thrust her one last time bringing her over the edge. She
screamed in delight and crumpled into a ball as the sensations took her
over.
Ryingo wasn't done yet though. He moved from her back to her front and
kissed her mouth . Placing both his hands on her knees he pushed her apart.
She opened her eyes in time to see he wore the same expression she had on a
minute ago.
Without warning he dove and entered her. He encountered resistance for a
moment. Then he rammed her harder than before. He burst her virgin wall and
entered her all the way. She screamed in pain and clutched the sides of the
tub. As the pain subsided she wrapped her arms and legs around him.
"Take me, please Ryingo," she whispered in his ear.
Happily he obeyed and began to suckle her breasts. He increased his
thrusting and she matched his rythm. The sensations began to build inside
of her as she felt herself drawing near.
He continued to assail her love tunnel as he bore down on her. She closed
her eyes and bit her tongue to try to hold back the orgasm. It was
inevitable though and she yowled in pain and lust as she bit her tongue to
hard.
She was momentarily shocked at his stamina. He was still pumping and she
was working towards her third orgasm! He pushed her up against the side of
the bath tub and stopped her squirming. The sensations began to get painful
almost as she couldn't move.
"Ryingo please move Shampoo only take so much," Shampoo said trying to
keep the urgency out of her voice.
"Hush," was all he said as he kept her from squirming. She tried to twist
every which way and gave a scream of frustration as she found he was to
strong for her to move. Seeing her begin to go over the edge he gave her
some space and eased up.
He felt himself begining to go over. He clutched her huge white mounds for
stabilization as he rammed her harder still. Each thrust brought Shampoo
far to much pleasure and pain for her body to cope with.
"Ryingo," she moaned. He kept on going.
"Ryingo, please slow down," she cried. She could feel herself being pushed
over the edge as she felt him tense and release his load into her. Her body
was on fire as she called his name and then cried out as her third orgasm
hit her. She had just enough energy left before she collapsed to kiss him
once more.
The sun beat down on Shampoo's lovely face as she slept in her bed. She
felt very warm and comfortable in her bed. Opening her eyes she smiled at
seeing Ryingo next to her, and snuggled closer. Frowning she got up to
close the drapes. It was far to sunny in her.
'Ohmigod' she thought looking at the sun ' It's almost 9:00.' The Kat
Kafe would be opening soon and Grandmother would be looking for her. She
ran over to Ryingo and shook him. He smiled and turned over in his sleep.
"Ryingo, get up. Shampoo get angry at you."
He sighed happily and turned over again. She could see that he was teasing
her. Smiling she decided to play along. Leaning over she put her mouth to
his ear.
"Ryingo want to take another bath with Shampoo?" she teased.
Instantly his eyes flew open and he looked at her.
"Ryingo way to horny," Shampoo laughed.
He frowned and mumbled something about running some water before he hopped
up and got dressed. Just as he was hopping into his pants a voice was heard
down the hall.
"Shampoo, its almost opening time."
"Be right there Grandmother," she shouted to quickly. She mentally kicked
herself for her urgency.
"Is something wrong Shampoo?"
"NO... er..um.. why would anything be wrong with Shampoo."
"You don't sound so good. I'm coming to see whats the matter."
"NO"
There was a brief rustling as Cologne opened the door. She looked around
the room. Everything appeared to be normal. Shampoo lay in bed with the
sheets pulled over her. A man's shirt was on the ground. Eveything seemed
to be in --.
Cologne did a double take at the shirt and walked over. Picking the shirt
up she eyed it carefully.
"Shampoo what is this shirt doing here. As far as I know you only have ten
pairs of the same outfit."
Shampoo mentally kicked herself again.
"Oh that...that is ...Ranma's shirt. Shampoo take to dry cleaners for
him."
Cologne hobbled over to the bed and noticed that Shampoo had to either be
quite fat or something was under the sheets.
"Shampoo what's that," she said pointing to the lump.
"That is Shampoo's..... pillow and extra blanket. She always keep there."
Cologne frowned. This was unlike Shampoo to be utterly speachless.
"Shampoo get out of bed and get dressed. We are going to open the Kafe now
and I need your help."
"Yes Grandmother."
Shampoo was quickly dressed and awaited her Granmother's orders. As they
walked to the front of the Kafe something became obvious to Cologne.
"Shampoo why are you walking so funny?"
"Uuuuuummm."
As Ryingo removed himself from the bed he moved to put his shirt on.
Leaving Shampoo a note on a table he quickly produced a vial and cut
himself. Dripping about a pint of black blood into the vial he left it next
to the note. 'Remember me Shampoo' he thought and phased out of the room.
"Once again Ryingo appears to be gone today," Miss Hinako called out, "If
any of you see him be sure to give him his homework." As the bell rang for
lunch Ranma and Akane moved outside to eat.
"Man am I glad that Ryingo guy is gone."
"Ranma, your such a jerk. Just because he was a better fighter than you
doesn't mean you have to be jealous."
Akane knew she had pulled just the strings she wanted to when Ranma
promptly blew up.
"He was NOT a better fighter than me. Let him show his ugly face around
here and I'll bash it into the stratosphere."
As if in response the sky began to grow dark and lightning flashed across
the sky. A huge image of Ryingo appeared in the clouds. Without waiting to
see the reaction the image spoke.
"Martial artists I challenge you to a battle. It will take place downtown
in three hours. You will be fighting for your city. If you do not come then
all that you hold dear will be burned to the ground."
The image replaced itself with a picture of the city burning and people
screaming as every thing burned and the city was transformed into a pyre.
"Do not dissapoint me." When the last phrase was spoken the image
dissapeared.
'Hmmm downtown in three hours 'Ranma thought.
All the martial artists in the city turned out for the event. Among them a
recovered Happosai, a female Ranma ( an insult about Akane's cooking got
him a quick dunk), Ryouga, Akane, Mousse, Ukyou, Kuno, Kodachi, Dr. Tofu,
Miss Hinako, Cologne, and Shampoo.
Sitting atop one of the buildings Ryingo gazed at the ammassed crowd.
'Hmmm, I'll have to thin the lot a bit'
Summoning a wall of fear with Black Magic he swept the conjured force down
the street. Those who had lesser ki would turn and flee in the sight of the
oncoming wall. Those who had greater ki would simply not see it. Ryingo
smiled evilly. This would be fun.
The wall slowly moved towards the gathered group from around a corner. As
it rounded the corner screams were heard throughout the city. Ranma turned
to see the lesser martial artists scream in terror as they ran from the
wall.
Ranma turned and found nothing at all. 'That's peculiar' he thought 'why
are they running.' He turned to the rest of the martial artists. Happosai,
Ryouga, Akane, Mousse, Ukyou, Kuno, Kodachi, Miss Hinako, Cologne, and
Shampoo were all that was left.
He motioned for them to follow. As they moved deeper into Ryingo's
"playground" things began to change. Shadows twisted as if in firelight, it
began to get darker, and the air felt dry like an opened tomb. Ukyou and
Kodachi moved to hold Ranma's arms as Shampoo pondered why Ryingo would do
such a thing.
A hollow chuckle filled the air as Ryingo appeared before them.
"Welcome martial artists, " he said with a sneer, "I don't believe all of
us have been properly introduced. My name is Ryingo. I will be your
executioner." His eyes narrowed to slits as he surveyed the group. A pig
tailed red head, a guy with glasses, Akane, Happosai, some loser with an
umbrella, Mousse, a girl in a gymnastic suit, Miss Hinako, the old woman,
Kuno, a young woman with a spatula, and Shampoo.
'Wha-- Shampoo. How did she get here! I can't fight her! She will have to
be removed from this band of simpletons' he thought as Ranma stepped forth.
"All right Ryingo. Why challenge all of us. You can't possibly win."
"On the contrary I stand quite a good chance of winning. One of you is the
most powerful and skilled martial artist in all of Japan. I intend to kill
him or her and then the demons will be released into this world."
"Demon nothing. They're only myth."
"Oh really I don't look real to you." His hair flew into an upward stance
and his eyes burned like coals from the pits of Hell.
"I shall destroy he or she and then my people shall cross over. If you
have any last requests say them now."
"Silence fiend," Kuno shouted, "Truly a black rose you are if thou wouldst
destroy the fair Akane and lovely pig tailed girl. Though art the serpent
that twines its coils around the Tree of Knowledge, you are the foul
cadaver that rises at night to feast on the living, you ar--." Kuno's
monologue was interrupted by loud snores coming from a sleeping Ryingo.
"You shall pay for this insult knave," Kuno said racing toward Ryingo.
Dodging a swing from his wooden sword Ryingo flipped and grabbed the top of
Kuno's gi. As he came to rest on the ground he tossed Kuno over his back
and into a building. Kuno's head took most of the force (this was good
because Kuno's head was the hardest part of his body). He quickly recovered
and launched another volley with his sword.
This time the sword made contact with the palm of Ryingo's hand. He ripped
it out of Kuno's hand and inspected the crude weapon.
"Good for nothing, but firewood." upon saying this he launched the sword
at Kuno. It struck him in the chest and pierced the skin. Kuno removed the
sword as Ryingo made another attack. Running at Kuno he began a complex
volley of kicks and punches. The first five knocked Kuno unconscious.
During the rest of the volley Kuno was lifted several feet into the air as
he was being hit. The last hit sent him spiraling back into the group.
"Next," Ryingo said brushing his hands against his shirt. Ukyou and
Kodachi flew at Ryingo. Both thinking that if they proved themselves to
Ranma he would go out with them.
Kodachi's streamer flew to whip Ryingo in the chest. dodging to the left
he was struck by one of the cooking utensils Ukyou threw at him. Removing
it from his skin he glared at her.
"That's going to cost you girl," he said, "Ryingo Special Attack BLACK
THUNDER CRACKLE." The bolt of energy flew at Ukyou and pounded her in the
stomach knocking her unconscious as she struck a building. Attacking
Kadachi with the same attack he uppercut the energy into her midsection
sending her flying into the air.
"Three down, six to go, " Ryingo was enjoying himself immensely.
"Let's attack him all at once he doesn't stand a chance," Ranma growled as
she flared her battle aura. "Attack him all at once and he can't move or
block."
"HIRYUSHOTENHA," Ryouga yelled firing a ki blast at Ryingo. He easily
dodged to the side laughing. What fun this was!
"HAPPO-NO-COIN-RETURN," shouted Miss Hinako. Her ki blast joined Ryouga's.
This time Ryingo was given a glancing blow on his side.
"HAPPOFIRE BURST." The bomb sailed to blow near Ryingo's broad side.
'Cutting it close there. Get with it!' he mentally screamed.
Mousse released an explosion of spikes. Most of them missed but three
connected in his legs and right arm. Ryingo screamed in pain as black blood
flowed from the opened wounds.
His attack would have to be good or the next barrage would kill him.
Mentally he began to drudge up all of his training in Black Magic. Fire and
lightning spells came to mind. Summoning spirits to attack for him would do
it. It had to flow around Shampoo though and that was what made it hard.
Finally he realized what he could do.
Summoning his magic and ki he called upon the forces around him to bend to
his will. "Air circulate and scream, Water churn in the lakes, Fire burn in
the mortal's pyres, Earth quake at my command, Abyssmal voids open at my
bidding. Create the power I demand. Ryingo Special Technique GRAND ILLUSION
FLASH."
A wave of darkness swept over the would-be heros and they succumbed to the
power.
Shampoo looked around at what was happening. She couldn't harm either side
so she had sat back to watch. As the darkness swept over her friends and
passed something had changed. Walking up to Ranma she snapped a finger in
front of his face. Nothing. Ranma kept looking at nothing. A shadow fell
over her as she continued to inspect Ranma.
"Shampoo," Ryingo said as she whirled around," why did you come here."
"What did you do to them?" she asked fearfully.
"Answer me! I demand to know why you came with my would be murderers," he
shouted at her. She cringed and sobbed.
"Your message sent for all martial artists so Shampoo come. Why did this
happen to them?"
"They have crossed from this world into a dream like state. I can quickly
finish them off while they "sleep". Then the demons will flow from their
world to ours."
"Why was Shampoo not affected?" she asked him.
"You can take a good guess, your a smart girl. I don't want to finish you
off."
"Why?"
Ryingo opened his mouth to answer. He choked on his tongue because he
didn't know. A peculiar warm felling came to him when he thought of
Shampoo, but it was very foreign.
"Ryingo love Shampoo," she supplied her eyes shining. She kissed him
passionately. It was this action that caused a break in his concentration.
Instantly Ranma was on his feet.
"HIRYUSHOTENHA," he shouted releasing a huge amount of his ki on the
unknowing Ryingo. As the bolt screamed towards the pair Ryingo saw the tell
tale light flash and he turned.
Eveything happened in slow motion. The bolt arced toward him as he
realized his decision.
"SHAMPOO GET DOWN," he shouted throwing her behind him. The ki bolt struck
him in the torso and took him down like a piece of paper yields to fire.
"RYINGO," Shampoo screamed in agony. She clutched at Ryingo's pale form.
"YES," Ranma screamed in triumph. "I beat him. I win Akane. I win Akane."
As Ranma continued his macho dance of destruction Shampoo knelt and felt
for a pulse. She sighed in relief. She felt the beat flutter and dwindle.
"Please don't die Ryingo," she sobbed. He slowly lifted his head. He
touched a blood soaked hand to her cheek.
"Looks like we won't be getting married today," he rasped. He coughed a
huge wad of black blood.
"Ryingo will be all right. Shampoo care for him," she whimpered.
he sighed at her ignorance. He was dieing and nothing would prevent that.
She must know of of the measures he took.
"Shampoo, on the table in your room is a note. It gives instructions on
what to do when I--," he was cut off as his body spasmed and twisted. With
a final thud his heart lay dead in his chest. The greatest demon warrior
was dead.
"Ryingo, wake up," Shampoo said shaking him, "Ryingo no tease Shampoo."
Reaching down she felt for a pulse that was non-existant.
"NO," she screamed. 'He has to be alive' she thought. Why did he have to
die? 'Wait Ranma fire ki blast' she thought 'Is Ranmas fault that Ryingo
dead.' She began to blot out her pain and misery with a gruesome death
chant. The only thing running through her mind as her vision hazed red.
'KillRanmaKillRanmaKillRanmaKillRanmaKillRanma'
She turned to see Ranma dancing around with the other martial artists.
They were all so digustingly happy that Ryingo was dead. He wasn't just
Ryingo. He was HER Ryingo.
"Ranma, is you I kill," she screamed as she rushed toward him. Ranma was
dealt three swift kicks to the jaw before she realized what was happening.
Jumping away from the battle hungry Shampoo he assumed a defense position.
"HEY...what'd you do that for," he shouted as he rubbed his sore jaw.
"MURDERER," Shampoo screamed as she launched into a fiercer volley of
attacks. This time she not only hit Ranma she drew blood as she atacked him
relentlessly. His nose broke from a punch and spurted blood all over
Shampoo's clothes.
"Shampoo settle down," Cologne said. She hobbled over to the attacking
Shampoo and struck a pressure point. Shampoo's legs gave out, but she
continued to sob and curse Ranma. Mousse picked up Shampoo gently and he
and Cologne started for home.
EPILOGUE
Shampoo lay sobbing on her bed reliving the time when she found he had no
pulse over and over.
"Damn you Ranma," she sobbed. She sat up and stopped crying.
'Ryingo would not want Shampoo to cry ' she thought unhappily. She frowned
as she had the nagging feeling she had forgotten something. Reaching over
to turn of the light near the bedstand she almost knocked over a black
vial.
Reaching out she picked up the object and a note that was under it. The
vial seemed to be glass holding a black liquid. Curiously she read the
note:
Dear Shampoo,
By the time you read this I will probably be dead or demons will be
flocking into the world. If the latter is true I will protect you. If it is
the former then this note will give you new hope.
The glass vial that is on this note contains a pint of my blood. Even
though I may be dead the blood is still a living extension of me. As you
may already know I am not human. With this comes some common powers. The
most important to you now is a special form of regeneration known as the
Blood Rite. <Shampoo's heart skipped a beat as she digested this>.
By combining drops of the killers blood with my blood my body will begin
to reform. Once you obtain the killers blood and mix it with mine this vial
will need to be put in a cool, damp, dark place. Depending on how much
blood is used the time of regeneration will be from a day to a year.
No matter what know that I care for you and will come back.
Hoping to see you soon (in one form or the other),
Ryingo
Shampoo's heart raced as she thought back to her battle. Ranma's blood had
been spilled on her clothes. Quickly she undressed and found a small trace
of blood that wasn't dry yet. She tipped the shirt over the vial and rung
the shirt out. As she did this the blood oozed to the sides and lapped
hungrily and the red liquid entering the vial.
'Soon Shampoo will have Ryingo back' she thought with a sigh as she went
to sleep.
The Demon King screamed in anger as the portal collapsed. Ryingo had
failed him! If he every encountered his soul in the Abyss he would rip it
apart! His ears perked as he heard the door close.
"WHAT," he shouted as his advisor slithered in, "It had better be quick. I
am VERY angry that Ryingo failed me. It will take another thousand years
before we can open the portal!"
"Perhapssss not, My liege," the advisor hissed with a smile.
"How are we supposed to come up with that sort of energy in less than a
thousand years? Either you are the stupidest demon in this dimension or you
know something I don't."
"The latter mi' lord."
"Speak," the Demon King said. It was suprising how his mood could change
so quickly.
"Ryingo did not fail, your majesssty. In fact he may have helped ussss
more than defeating the champion. You ssssee he has (unwittingly or
knowingly) placed the transsss-dimenssssional energy converter in an almost
infinate ssssupply of powerful dimensional magic. If my calculationsss are
correct we will be able to power the gate to the Human world in roughly
three monthsss."
The Demon King laughed gleefully. Nothing could stop him now from
conquering the mortal world. Yet if Ryingo didn't beat the martial artist
then who would he send through.
"If I may ssssuggest an alternative though, your lordssship," the advisor
said bowing.
"What is it?"
" With sssuch a vast sssupply of energy we will be able to ressurect the
five Lietenantssss from the Dead Zone. Eventually we may accumulate enough
energy to bring back the General himssself. With thisss in mind what are
your ordersss, my king?"
"Ressurrect the first Lieutenant and power the gate. If he fails continue
in order till you have accumulated the required energy to release the
General.
"I hear and obey."
________________________________________________________________________
Well I hope you liked the story. If you haven't guessed yet Shampoo is my
favorite Ranma character aside from Ranma him/herself. (I don't know I
think it's the way she talks). I just decided she deserved better than what
Ranma was giving her so I created a perfect husband for her.
He had to be strong, pack a punch, have enourmous ki ability, and I was
always partial to the use of Black Magic in stories.
Then the problem struck me. No one that powerful could be human. So I set
about creating something he could be and wound up going back to a demonic
theme.
Anyway watch out for number 2 cause its coming your way soon. If you have
questions or comments please send them to:
I would love to know what you think.
