Intergalactic Tag
This bit by: Ryo Hoshi


	Ranma snuck up as quietly as he could, hoping he was doing a good job of
hiding his chi.  He saw his target, and he moved as fast as he could.
	Goku turned around.  He was holding a very happy cat.
	Ranma beat a fast retreat.

	Ranma wasn't going to give up so easily, but he decided against tagging Goku.
	"Don't even think about it, Ranma," Washu said without turning around.
	"How'd you know???"
	Washu silently pointed to the mirror.  Ranma facefaulted.

	Akane saw movement out of the corner of her eye.  "Ranma?" she asked as she
turned around, mixing bowl in hand.  Seeing no one, she turned back to her
'cooking,' actually an attempt on her part to create a new life form.
	A few seconds later, she shook in the final ingredient, a cup full of a white
powder that looked like sugar.  Let it sit for a minuet, she gleefully thought
to herself, and I'll find out what my new life form is like!
	Ranma looked around the corner.  She's absorbed in her cooking, thought
Ranma.  I think I'll be safe to sneak up on her now.
	Of course, one can guess what happened next.  Ranma succeeded on sneaking up
on Akane, but the life form that Akane was working on choose that time to wake
up and Ranma ended up tagging it.
	It decided to take over the universe by playing tag.
	Ranma and Akane decided that it would be proper to make a strategic retreat
as soon as possible.

	Okay, so this doesn't make much sense.  Anyway, I figured that the strangest
game of tag possible would be one involving people from several anime.  But
still, it wouldn't be something worth writing a fic about.
	Therefore, I decided to try a blend of "ultrapowerful monster trying to take
over the world/universe/Ohio/the space under your bed" and "Akane's cooking
coming to life," giving the second a *hopefully* new twist: she isn't cooking,
but doing the mad scientist routine.
	If anyone wants to add/take this idea, feel free.  Just send me a copy,
please!
