Okay folks,

I've finished the Royal Rumble Match.  However, it's so dang big that 
I had to break it up into four sections.

I'll be willing to send you the uninterrupted copy on request.

May The Spirit Preserve You!

			   THE FFML ROYAL RUMBLE


	Tybalt waited while the ring was fixed and then, when he was given 
the signal from the crew that everything was good to go, he said, 
"And now it's time to bring you the Main Event!  Tell'em WW."

	"You got it buddy," White Wolf replied, "We brought together thirty 
of the most powerful Animates we could find and asked them to 
paticipate in a thirty participant, over the top rope, Royal Rumble 
match. Tonight, those who accepted will fight for the right to be 
called the most powerful Animate in existence."

	Tybalt said, "I think we better turn our attention to the ring.  The 
announcer has entered.  We're about to get under way."

	In the ring, Flashman grabbed the microphone that was lowered to him 
once more and said, "Hi folks!  I'm more excited about this next 
match then you!!!"

	The crowd roared in disagreement.  Flashman continued as someone 
rang the bell, "Ladies and Gentlemen (and not so gentle men) the 
following contest is a Royal Rumble match!!!"

	The crowd cheered again and Flashman continued, "The rules are as 
follows.  Earlier today, the thirty participants each drew numbers 
between 1 and 30.

	"In a few moments, those who drew 1 and 2 will enter the ring area 
and every two minutes there after, another participant shall enter.  
Elimination occurs when a participant is thrown over the top rope and 
both feet hit the floor.

	"The last person remaining in the ring, after all 30 have entered, 
will be declared the winner!!!

	"Now... let us all find out, who drew number one!"

	"WHAT TIME IS IT?!," the speakers suddenly blared, "IT'S TIME... 
IT'S TAROU TIME!!!!"

	The sea of boos drowned out the single cheer for the man who stepped 
out from behind the curtain as "Mastodon" began to play.  Yes, Blade 
was in the audience as Pantyhose Tarou made his way towards the ring. 
 "Number one is Panyho..."

	Flashman stopped as Tarou pulled out a bottle of ice water from 
behind his back and held it over his head threateningly.  Flashman 
coughed and continued, "Tarou."

	Tarou nodded in acceptance and stepped between the ropes.  Once in 
the ring he waited for his first opponent.  A few seconds later he 
got his answer as Flashman announced, "Number two is... Sailor 
Mars!"

	"I Want to Be a Star" played as the boos filled the arena again and 
as she made her way to the ring Sailor Mars thought, "HEY!  I'm one 
of the good guys!  Why are they booing?  Oh wait.  This is a Flashman 
fic.  Never mind."

	She leaped over the top rope, into the ring and as soon as Flashman 
cleared out, the bell rang and the match began.  "Hey," Mars asked, 
"is your name REALLY 'Pantyhose Tarou'?"

	Tarou grumbled, "What if it is?!"

	Mars stifled a giggle, then she started to laugh, "PANTYHOSE Tarou?!?
!?  I don't know what's worse.  What you're named after or the fact 
that it rhymes.  BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"

	In a rage, Tarou poured the ice water over himself and transformed 
into his monster form.  Then with a roar, he charged and caught the 
stunned Mars napping.  The punch he let go sent Mars flying over the 
top rope and she landed on the floor, on her head.  Tarou-minatour 
roared at the crowd and they booed in response (except for Blade of 
course).

	Soon, the counter reached the ten second mark and the crowd counted 
down with it.  "10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1..."

	BZZZZZZZT, went the buzzer and the crowd cheered as NG Knight 
Lamuness ran towards the ring.  He came in under the ropes and jumped 
into the air.  He pulled out what looked like a top and flung it at 
Tarou as he cried, "ASTRO SPIN!!!"

	The Astro Top hit Tarou right in the face and Tarou staggered back 
slightly from the unexpected attack.  The Astro Top flew back into 
the hand of Lamuness and he threw it again, this time with a rope 
attached to it and cried, "ASTRO YO-YO!!!"

	The Yo-Yo wrapped around Tarous right arm and Lamuness strained his 
muscles as he tried to fling his opponent over the top.  Tarou simply 
planted both his feet and went nowhere.  Then, with a casual raising 
of the arm, he sent Lamuness over the top and into the first row of 
fans.  "That's two," Blade yelled from his seat.

	BZZZZZZT!  The crowds hopes went up again as Yamcha entered the 
contest.  He entered through the ropes and went on the attack.  He 
hit Tarou with several punches to the head and then followed up with 
a kick to the chest.  He then backed up and threw a ki ball at the 
monster.  Tarou grunted from the impact of the projectile and landed 
on his butt.  The minatour growled and stood.  He grabbed Yamcha as 
the former Desert Bandit tried another charge and threw him out of 
the ring.  Yamcha however, stopped in mid air and stuck his tounge 
out at Tarou as he taunted, "Ha!  You forget.  I can fly."

	Tarou drove his fist down on top of Yamchas head and sent him down 
to the floor.  "Three," Blade encouraged.

	BZZZZZT!  Jotarou Joestar made his way into the ring.  Jotarou 
wasted no time as he called forth his Stand of Star Platinum and sent 
it charging forward.  "ORRA ORRA ORRA ORRA," Star Platinum cried as 
it slammed its fists into Tarou-minataurs stomach over and over again.


	Tarou, not being a Stand User, didn't see Star Platinum but he did 
feel the effects of its attack.  The monster let out an inhuman roar 
of pain and he thought, "What is he hitting me with?  An invisible 
version of Fem Boys punching attack?"

	Blindly, he lashed out his hand and grabbed hold of something.  
Jotarou saw that Tarou had grabbed the arm of Star Platinum.  Still 
fighting blind, Tarou-minatour flung whatever was in his hands 
towards the arena floor.  Now, because Jotarou was a Stand User, he 
went flying along with his Stand when it was thrown and he crashed to 
the floor.  "That's FOUR," Blade called down.

	"This is easy," Tarou thought, "I feel ready to take on any one."

	The timer reached zero and Tarou amended as he saw who it was and 
the crowd roared in approval, "Any one but HIM."

	BZZZZT!  Like a bat out of hell, Vegita stormed the ring, a savage 
roar of, "Vegita 3:16 says I'm gonna Final Flash your a**," escaping 
his lips.

	The prince of the Saya-Jins was all over the monster in a nanosecond.
  He unleashed punch after punch after punch on his larger opponent.  
Vegita snarled, "Let's see how tough you REALLY are monster."

	He backed up and also unleashed a ki ball.  He didn't stop at one 
however and the energy attacks sent Tarou flat on his back.  Vegita 
approached slowly and was grabbed by the throat by Tarou.  The 
minatour threw Vegita out of the ring but Vegita used his flying 
abilities to fly back and slammed both of his fists into the rising 
Tarous chest.  Tarou staggered back and unleashed one of his 
tentacles to smash Vegita in the face.  Now it was Vegitas turn to 
stagger back and he smiled as he said, "Good.  I don't want this 
fight to be TOO easy."

	BZZZZZT!  At that point, the timer had reached zero once more.  The 
crowd went even wilder as A-ko made an appearance.  "Wait a sec," 
Tybalt said, "I don't remember A-ko being on the list."

	White Wolf was listening to something in his head phones and replied,
 "Yes.  I see," he turned to Tybalt as he explained, "Apparently, A-
ko is an alternate.  Sailor Venus is out sick with the flu and so A-
ko was asked to fill in."

	Tarou, seeing the straights he was in, decided it was time to change 
opponents.  With a roar, he charged A-ko.  A-ko stood there and then 
simply let go with an incredible right jab to the charging Tarous 
head.  The audience winced at the dull THWACK that sounded when the 
monsters head collided with A-kos extended fist.  Tarou stood wide 
eyed, A-kos fist still directly in between his eyes and then he 
started to fall backwards.

	Vegita smirked and as Tarou fell backwards he hit a double axe 
handle on the back of Tarous neck.  The monster started to fall 
forward and A-ko hit him with an uppercut.  Tarou fell back again and 
Vegita hit him with an axe handle again.  They continued to do this 
for awhile and the crowd roared in approval.  Blade groaned and 
shouted, "Come ON Tarou!  They're roughing you up in there!!  Stop 
playing around!!!"

	"Who's 'playing'???" Tarou thought as he was sent back and forth 
several more times.

	Finally, perhaps mercifully, the buzzer sounded again.

	BZZZZZZT!  All the females in the audience shrieked in panic as 
three Harley Davidsons with panties hanging off the handle bars 
roared into the arena, heralding the arrival of POA (Perverts Of the 
Appocolips).  The group, consisting of Happosai, Ataru and Kentaro, 
stopped their bikes and tried to leap into the audience but were 
stopped by a Level 12 Organic Repulsion Force Field.  "We're making 
SURE that no one in our audience gets glomped," Flashman remarked, 
his finger on the button of a remote that was labeled, "IN CASE POA 
TRIES TO GLOMP AUDIENCE MEMBERS."

	Seeing that all the pretty ladies outside the ring were unreachable, 
Happosai ordered, "Stay here fellas.  I'm going in!"

	The old lecher bounded into the ring and promptly glomped onto A-ko. 
 A-ko was stunned by the sudden assault and since her timing was 
thrown off, Tarou crashed face first to the mat.  Vegita saw what was 
happening and decided, "Oh well, that was getting boring."

	He grabbed Tarou and lifted him high over his head.  "Are you ready,
" he taunted, "to go on a little trip, monster?"

	A-ko suddenly crashed into Vegita as she was running like a chicken 
with its head cut off, trying to dislodge the little pervert that was 
grabbing her chest.  Vegita fell over backwards and was crushed by 
the falling form of Tarou-minatour.

	A-ko cried as she ran in circles around the ring, "LET GO!  LET GO!  
LET GO!!!!"

	"But sweeto," Happosai said in a whiney tone, "I just want to rest 
on the most comfortable place in the building."

	"I SAID LET GO!!!!!!!!"

	A-ko smashed her left fist down on Happosais head and the perv let 
go.  A-ko then began to stomp on the downed form of the old man and 
did so, so viciously, that a billow of dust rose up and covered the 
both of them.  When it cleared, A-ko wipped the sweat off her brow 
and looked down as she said, "That'll teach you, you old..."

	She stopped as she saw Vegita under her foot and heard him roar, 
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING 'OLD'?!?!"

	Tarou finally caught sight of the one who had ruined his life and he 
roared.  He charged the little old man but Happosai jumped over him 
and threw one of his bombs at the monster.  Tarou batted it away and 
it landed in the rising Vegitas hand.  Vegita looked down at the 
small thing and gagged as it blew up in his face, blackening his face 
with soot.  "Oh," Vegita swore under his breath, "he's gonna pay for 
that."

	BZZZZZZT!  The crowd applauded politely as Sailor Uranus made an 
appearance.  She slowly entered the ring and seeing Tarou was chasing 
Happosai and Vegita was moving in to attack both of them, she was 
left with A-ko.  "WORLD SHAKING," the Senshi cried.

	The yellow energy ball headed for A-ko but the red haired girl 
jumped out of the way and the attack hit Vegita square in the back.  
All action stopped as Vegita turned, a cold furry in his eyes that 
was rapidly becoming a hot one.  "I wouldn't mind," the Saya-jin 
began, "If the attacks were directed at me... BUT WHY DO I ONLY GET 
THE MISSED SHOTS?!!!!!"

	The yellow battle aura flared around Vegita and the force unleashed 
made everyone plant their feet and try to hold on.  Vegitas eyes came 
to rest on Sailor Uranus and he growled, "You're first."

	Uranus pulled out her Sword and cried, "SPACE SWORD BLA..."

	She never got a chance to finish her attack on the ticked off Vegita 
and he hit her with a vicious left cross.  Uranus lost her grip on 
her sword and went flying out of the ring, to the floor.  Vegita 
snarled, "Good ridence," then he picked up her sword and threw it out,
 "and take your damn sword with you!"

	Vegita threw it a little harded then he had meant to and several 
people ducked as it came at them, before it came to rest on the table 
directly between the two commentators.  As he saw Warhammer help the 
groggy Uranus try to stand so she could leave, Vegita thought, "I 
feel MUCH better now."

	This was right before A-ko leveled him with a sucker punch to the 
back of the head.

	Happosai made it look easy but in truth he was growing concerned 
with how close Tarou-minataur was to getting him.  Tarou unleashed 
several of his tentacles but the Master of the Anything Goes Martial 
Arts Style, managed to dodge inbetween them.  He even managed to tie 
two of them up into a cute little bow.  As Tarou tried to tug them 
apart, Happosai threw another bomb and this time it hit Tarou right 
in the kisser.

	BZZZZZZZT!  The crowds reaction was again reserved to a polite round 
of claps as Sailor Neptune joined the fray.  She called out as she 
entered, "Hey, shorty!"

	Vegita turned and snarled as he back handed A-ko away, "Who's 
callin' me?!"

	"I am.  This one's for Uranus.  DEEP SUBMERGING!"

	The blue ball of water slammed into the Prince of the Saya-jins and 
sent him back two inches.  Neptune tried again and again and again 
but she could only get him to move back three steps in all.  Vegita 
looked up and grinned evilly as he asked, "Finished?"

	Neptune sighed and replied, "I suppose you're going to enjoy 
throwing me out as well."

	"Nope.  I'm going to enjoy WATCHING you get thrown out."

	Neptune opened her mouth to reply but was grabbed from behind by A-
ko, who said, "'Scuse me, but me and the Prince here were in the 
middle of something when you barged in..."

	The red head used a fraction of her super powered might and tossed 
Neptune into the third row as she finished, "... and I HATE being 
interrupted!"

	Vegitas grin gained an even more sinister aspect to it as A-ko 
turned back to him and he said as he cracked his knuckles, "Now... 
where were we?"

	To the fans delight, the two of them began to trade punches.  A-kos 
punches had more strength to them but Vegita could take more then A-
ko, so the outcome of their duel was in doubt.  It ended when both of 
them tried to attempt a head butt and their noggins collided.  The 
two of them backed off and slumped into opposite corners.

	Tarou meanwhile, had finally managed to catch Happosai and was using 
his tentacles to reel him in.  In a rare moment, the crowd cheered 
the monster along with Blade as Tarou-minatour finally had Happosai 
close enough to grab him in a crushing bear hug.  Tarou just started 
to smile, when an obstruction suddenly came over his eyes and in 
panic, he dropped Happosai and dug at his eyes.  He finally pulled 
off whatever was blocking his vision and looked at it.

	It was a bra.

	A-ko looked up and saw Tarou holding something in his hands.  Then 
her vision focused and to her horror, she saw that it was a BRA... 
and not just any bra, it was HERS.  Red filled her vision and she 
rushed at Tarou.  As she reached him, she planted a fist into his 
face and cried, "YOU PERVERT!!!  HOW DARE YOU?!?!"

	As Tarou went flying back into the ropes and got tied up as they 
ensnared his arms, A-ko stuffed her bra into her shirt pocket and 
looked for Vegita.  However, Vegita had found another target.

	Happosai had been marveling over how his attempt at escape had 
produced such an unexpected, yet welcome, side effect, when he felt a 
presence behind him.  He turned and saw Vegita.  Vegita looked at him 
with a predatory gaze as he said, "I still owe you for that bomb old 
man."

	Vegita began throwing fists at an incredible rate but the old lech 
managed to dodge them very handily.  "Nyah, nyah," Happosai taunted 
as he pulled down his lower left eye lid and stuck out his tounge, 
"you can't hit me."

	A-ko came up from behind him and hit him as he was in mid air.  The 
decrepit master hit the mat and Vegita and A-ko began to stomp on him 
mercilessly.

	The crowd began to count down again, "5... 4... 3... 2... 1..."
