NICE story.  I'm really anxious to see what Taro's up to.  The only thing I
can gather (from the description given) is that he is going back to the
temple where the creature was sent from to get them to call it off or even
possibly make it his ally (they are both after Happosai, after all).  Or
something similar.  Though, since I don't think he knows WHERE it came
from, that would be a little far-fetched.

As for Ranma's training, the only thing I can think of is that he is trying
to strengthen or at least modify the catfist.  After all, when he learned
it, he was wrapped in fish sausage.  Now he sleeps with fish.  *shrug*
Just my 1 cent worth (can't give two, gotta save money for a trip I'm
taking soon).

	I'd bet on that myself.  If Ranma really needed to become 
fantastically stronger in a short period of time, the most effective way 
would be to learn to tap the Neko-ken's power while retaining his own self 
controll.  Of course it would be incredibly difficult and force Ranma to 
essentially jump back into the pit of cats (adding explination to why his 
Jerk aspect is so amplified.)

And then we have what Nabiki's up to.  Never can quite tell with that girl.

Anyway, again, let me repeat.  "NICE story."  Excellent work.  Hurry up and
do the next chapter.  :)
