I showed a friend of mine my one-line ad-fic, and she fell over laughing, 
then wrote this. I'm posting it for her.. ^_^

Okay, Kick...this isn't the Kodachi one, but I came up with this, and
had to get it down before I forgot...send it to your mailing list at
your convenience!

________________________________________________________________________

Setting:  An old, very gothic mansion on top of a cliff...scene of waves
crashing on the rocks way
down below...

Cast: Ranma, Akane, Shampoo, Mousse, P-chan

Scene:  Ranma and Co have been wandering lost in thick woods...its
night, and a storm is
brewing...but its not raining...yet...

Akane: Ranma...where do you think we are?

Ranma: I dunno, but its the *last* time Ryouga's driving!

P-chan: Bweeee! (angry)

Shampoo: Airen, it going to rain soon!  Maybe better find shelter, yes?

Akane: Shampoo, you just want to get Ranma alo...hey, look at
that...(points to mansion) You
think we could stay there?

Shampoo: Why violent girl want to stay in broken down old house?  Looks
spooky to Shampoo...

Mousse: Fear not, Shampoo, for I shall protec(thump)

Akane: *Because*, Shampoo...if we *don't*, its gonna rain, Ranma'll turn
into a girl, Mousse'll
turn into a duck, and *you'll be a cat again!  You want that?  I just
wonder where Ryouga got off
to?

Ranma: Ah, he's probably still at that swamp...that water looked cold,
didn't it, P-chan?

The cast approaches the old mansion...it looks abandoned, and all dark
inside...

Akane: Ranma...I...I'm not so sure about this...

Ranma: What, getting scared, Akane?

Akane: (Hmph!) Of course not!

Ranma: Well then, we'd better go in...wait a minute...

Ranma fishes around in a knapsack and pulls out a flashlight...he turns
it on and they step
inside...P-chan hesitates, perhaps sensing something...bad?

Shampoo:  Phew!  House smell old...

Suddenly, a strong wind gust blows the doors close...the crew bolts for
them, tugs at them, but
just can't get them open nohow...

Mousse: Oh, terrific, Ranma, now look what you've got us into!  How do
we get out?

Shampoo:  Mousse be quiet!  Shampoo think she hear something!

And indeed, there's footfalls, getting louder...and louder...and
*louder*!  Until a tall, distinguished
looking man approaches the group, huddling in fear, and he speaks...

Strange Man:  Good evening, and welcome to Collinwood.  I am Barnabas
Collins...

The crew, as one, again bolts for the doors, and this time, using that
martial arts strength, they
break right on thru and dash screaming, squealing, quacking, and meowing
into the night.

Camera focuses and zooms in on the flashlight, still shining bright in
the ancient house...

A text appears below the flashlight, as thus:  "Rayovac flashlights! 
For chasing away those Dark Shadows!"

Uh... yeah, Brain, but where are we going to find rubber pants our size?
