Ranma-chan ran into the darkness, looking
for any sign of light. She held the princess
over her shoulder. She could hear footsteps
trailing her. She cursed silently to herself,
not being able to see a thing. (It's like walking
with a blindfold! I can't see a damn thing!
I'm starting to get tired of carrying her!)
She wished that she was in her male form
right now. Strength is what they needed, not
speed.

	"Stop!" The gaurds yelled from ahead
of her. They surrounded the two girls, but
suddenly they all disappeared.

	"What?" Ranma-chan was kicked in the
face. Fatora fell to the ground. "Wh-where
are you? Show yourselves!" Another a hand
grabbed out for her, she barely dodged it.
(Come on, Ranma! Use your training! You've
trained all your life in martial arts and
you're not going to be beat down just by
a couple of gaurds!) She thought some more
and looked toward Princess Fatora. (Then
again, I am on another world but...it's
martial artists duty to protect the weak.
And that girl is helpless. Just
concentrate...)

	A small aura of blue outlined her
body. Ranma-chan let them press on their
attack as she lead them in an invisible
circle. She was getting badly bruised. A
spear slashed out for her. "NOW! HYRUU
SHOTEN HA!!!!!!!

	The whirlwind of air swirled at
them. The tornado twisted up into the
darkness. A beam of light spurt out
from the top. It seems the whirlwind
smashed through the roof. Unnoticed by
Ranma-chan, though, water dripped from
the hole.

	Ranma-chan looked up. "An exit!
But how am I...I got it!" She started
to perform the deadly move that defeated
the great Herb of the Musk Dynasty.
"HRYUU SHOTEN HA!!!!" The whirlwind
was conjured again and flew high up
in the air. "Now I-the girl!" She
ran quickly to pick up the unconcious
princess. Ranma-chan jumped up into his
own twister carrying Ranma-chan and
Fatora. The tornado flew them high up
into the air but not high enough to
reach the top.

	"Damn! We're too heavy!" She
quickly used one of her free hands to form
a yellow ball of chi. "Mouko Takibisha!"
The beam pushed them up and threw the
hole. Ranma-chan panicked. (An ocean of
water!) She repeated what she did.
"HAA!!!!!" Still carrying Fatora, they
were push up and out of the water.

	"Oh no! What am I going to do?!"
In the distance, Ranma-chan could
see a small island. "That's my only
hope! I can do this! If I've swum from
China to Japan then I can do it!"
But then she thought, (But then again,
I wasn't carrying an extra hundred pounds.)
She still went on, carrying Fatora on
her shoulders. She swam toward their
only hope. The Forbidden Island.

----------------------------------------

	"Seal the hole immediately!!"
Gallus commanded them. He cursed to
silently to himself. "Nahato."

	The Phantom Tribe boy appeared from
out nowhere. "Yes, My Lord?"

	"I have a change in plans. The
bugrom are trying to resurrect the
demon-god, Ifurita."

	"They are only bugs. They will not
succeed."

	"Of course. The demon-god, Ifurita...
she may not be the Eye of God, but she
be extremely useful in swatting away any other
bugs that get in the way of my plan."

	Nahato nodded. "As you wish My Lord."

---------------------------------------------

	Shayla was standing on the bow of
the ship; her leg on the stern and one arm
on top of it as she looked out into the
dark sea. Her hair wavered in the wind. A
very impressive pose actually. "How could
they have found the Forbidden Island? The
island the holds the strongest demon-god,
Ifurita. Only the four priestess' of Fire,
Wind, Water, and Earth know the location.
How can the-" She was cut off.

	"Stop trying to look impressive
Shayla," Afura said calmly, quietly sipping
her tea. "It only makes you look even more
idiotic."

	In the front, Shayla's gem on her
headband flared with pink fire angrily.
The priestess' had already explained their
situation to the strangers of El Hazard
if the Bugrom got a hold of the demon-god.
Likewise, as Makoto explained the story of
him ending up in El Hazard. Nanami was
happily playing with Ura, while the others
discussed Nanami's power of seeing through
Phantom Tribe illusions.

	"How come I can see through them but
nobody else can?" Nanami asked the group.

	"And what about Mr. Fujisawa's super
strength? How did he get his?" Ryoga added
in.

	"Yeah, how did I get mine?" The
teacher asked.

	"Maybe...Sensei and Nanami got them
when they travelled over here," Makoto
replied.

	Afura nodded her head in agreement.
"Perhaps your right. It would seem logical
that they have obtained their special
powers when the crossed dimensions."

	Nanami brightened up. "Wow! So you
mean I have super powers! Cool!" She cast
a playful suspicious glance at Makoto. "So
what super power do you have?"

	Makoto sulked, embarrased. "I don't
have any."

	"Probably because your such a boring
guy!" Nanami teased him.

	"*gulp*, aaaahhhh! So you mean I've
got super strength as my special power?"
Mr. Fujisawa asked, looking up from his
bottle of El-Haz-Er[TM) beer.

	Alielle grabbed the bottle from
his hand. "Mr. Fujisawa! You shouldn't be
drinking right now! We might need your
strength!" She scolded him.

	"*sigh*! Such great powers at the
cost of great drinks!" He started to pull
out a pack of cigerates.

	"That too!" She snatched the pack out
of his hand.

	"Look! It's the Forbidden Island!"
Shayla pointed out to dark island with
thundering clouds hovering around it.

----------------------------------------

	The young martial artist was
tired. At least when she swam to
China she didn't have to carry anybody.
Ranma-chan was resting on the shore next
to Princess Fatora. She noticed her
twitch slightly. She moved over to her.

	"Hm? You awake yet?"

	She moaned softly as her answer.
Opening her eyes slowly, Fatora sat up.
She looked around in curiousity, not
seeing not the usual blackness off the
Phantom Tribe's lair. The princess
covered her eyes with her arm, feeling
as if she was going blind. It was like
the whole world had gone white.

	(Am I dead?) She asked herself.

	Finally, the whiteness softened
and formed into shapes. The first thing
she saw was the most beautiful girl
she had ever seen. The redness of her
hair made her look so sexy! Even more
so than her playmate, Alielle.

	Acting on impulse, Fatora grabbed
the girl and brought her into a
passionate kiss. The red-headed girl
was taken back at first, but finally
relented. And so early too. Usually the
girls she kissed fought back for much
longer time before she seduced them.
Either that, or realised that they
were with the sister of Princess Rune,
and that she was a princess herself of
the Alliance Kingdoms.

	At last, the young girl broke
the kiss. "Wh-what?" Ranma-chan studdered.
She was to dumbstuck with shock to say
anymore. Her cheecks were as red as her
hair.

	Fatora cupped Ranma-chan's cheek.
"Your such a beautiful girl; so young
and delicate..."

	That last sentence forced Ranma-chan
to snap out of her trance. "Girl?! I'm
a guy not a girl!"

	"Sure you are, but you body shows
otherwise..." Fatora playfully teased and
poked at Ranma-chan's breast like Nabiki
had done before.

	Ranma-chan slapped her hand away,
her cheecks still as red as before.
"Cut that out! I'd show you, but I don't
have any warm water!" She protested.

	"Suuuure...it doesn't matter to me.
Your body looks as female as I do, if not
more."

	Ranma-chan glared at Fatora. After
staring at her, she realised something
for the first time. "Hey, you do look like
Makoto!" Though saying that made her even
more uncomfortable.

	"Who...?"

	"Shhh! I hear something!" Ranma-chan
grabbed the princess' hand and helped her
get up. As they waited, it seemed they
could hear a low buzzing sound in the
distance. "Bugrom!" Ranma-chan hissed.
"Just what I need! Come on! Let's go
hide somewhere!"

	"Bugrom? I don't here anything.
Or maybe it's just your instincts telling
you to take me somewhere private..."

	"What?!"

	"No need to be shy about it."

	"Argh! Your worst than Alielle! I
think I liked it better when you where
asleep!" Ranma-chan shouted out. (I saved
her life and this is the thanks I get!?
Geez, it's just like home! The next thing
you know, she'll be tellin' me she's my
fiance'!) She gripped Fatora's hand and
ran into the bushes with her before the
young princess could protest.

-----------------------------------------

	Kalia was at a standstill. What was
she going to do? They almost at the
Forbidden Island where one of the demon-gods
Ifurita sleeps. There, she would have a
chance to elimate the obstacle that might
get in her way if the demon-goddess was
awakened. Then she would be free to use
the Trigger of Destruction, but then she
was going to have to find a way to elimate
the other obstacle...Orochi. The legendary
sword that defeated her before.

	If they find out her true intentions,
that man, Kyoto, might use that damned
sword.

-------------------------------------------

	Miz, Shayla, Afura, Lita, Makoto,
Mr. Fujisawa, Ura, Ryoga, Nanami and Alielle
got off the ship. They looked around for any
sign of the Bugrom.

	"Where are they?" Shayla asked.

	"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" The infamous
laugh came from somewhere in the distance.
A huge flying bug appeared from the
mountain range carrying Jinnai, Nephrite,
and several bugrom soldiers.

	"Well, it seems you have fallen right
into my trap, Makoto!" Jinnai stated in triumph.

	"What!?" Makoto said in surprise.

	"What do you mean?" Miz asked.

	"You fools! All we did was send out
rumors that said we were going to the
Forbidden Island, and then we followed you!"
Nephlite replied.

	One of the bugrom slapped their fist in
their palm in understanding. Another bugrom
asked something in their native language.
Nephrite and Jinnai looked at each other then
at the bugrom soldiers. "You mean you never got
the plan!?" Nephrite and Jinnai asked at the
same time. "Idiots!"

	"Brother?!"

	"Huh? Nanami?! How did you get here?!"

	Nanami took a scolding tone. "It
doesn't matter! I'm dissapointed in you!
I know you've always hung out with the
low-lifes, but this is ridiculous!"

	"How do you suppose he was able to
communicate in the first place?" Shayla asked
Afura.

	Afura shrugged. "Maybe that was the
power he got when coming here. Talking to
bugs." Sweatdrops appeared on all of their
heads.

	"How dare you insult me! Go! Get them!"
Jinnai ordered them. Six bugrom soldiers
flew up from out of knowhere and landed down
next to the priestess' and the others.

	"Lets see how you priestess' can handle
the Bugrom Navy! Go!" Nephrite called upon
several ships carrrying dozens of bugrom.
"I trained them myself! You should find them
a lot stronger the others you have fought!
I call the Bugrom Stars!" The new bugrom
were colored black & white and had a black
nega-star on their forehead.

	The huge bug carrying Jinnai, Nephrite,
and their lackies flew off toward the
mountains. "Onward to the resting place of
Ifurita!"

	"Hey! Wait! Where are you going
cowards!?" Ryoga tried to run after them,
but was stopped by three bugroms that fell
down from the sky. "Out of my way! "Bakusai
Tenketsu!!" The ground exploded beneath the
bugrom like grenade. Ryoga push past them
and ran toward the direction where Jinnai and
Nephrite headed off to.

	The priestess', Mr. Fujisawa, Makoto,
Nanami, Alielle, and Ura were left to fend for
themselves.

	"I told you you shouldn't of drank so
much!" Nanami scolded Mr. Fujisawa.

	Mr. Fujisawa scratched the back of
his head. "Hehe..."

----------------------------------------------

	Ranma-chan peeked out of the bush to see
who was talking. "Hey, it's that Nephrite guy!
He's owes me a rematch!" She started to go out
of her hiding place, but a hand grabbed hers.

	"Wait! Don't leave me!" Fatora whined.
"I am a princess! You can't leave me!"

	"Hmph! Yeah, right!" She started thinking.
(But then again, it's martial artists duty to
protect the weak...ahh, Lita and them will take
of her.) "Sorry, but I gotta have my rematch!
Go run over to that one girl, Alielle, or
somethin'." Ranma-chan ran off in the direction
of Nephrite.

	"But..." Before she could finish she
noticed a bugrom soldier coming a little too
close to the bush for her comfort. The bugrom
looked over to the bush and, after a while of
observing, advanced toward Fatora. Fatora
shrieked in fear.

	Everybody looked over to find the source
of the shriek. "What was that?" Miz asked
after smashing a bugrom with a blast of water.

	Fatora popped out of the bush and ran
past the other bugrom. After getting to the
others, she stopped to take her breath.

	"Who is she?" Nanami asked.

	"Sh-she looks like me!!" Makoto stated.

	Alielle suddenly ran up to the new
girl and embraced her. "Princess Fatora!!"

	Everybody gasped. "Your Princess
Fatora!?" They said simaltaneously.

------------------------------------------

	Jinnai, Nephrite, and the bugrom
soldiers stopped in the middle of a giant
fork with multiple paths.

	"Which way?" Nephrite asked Jinnai.

	"Wh-what's that!?" Jinnai pointed
over to a huge river of water rushing
toward them. "Where did that-GAAHHH!!"
The water over took them and flooded the
room.

	In the midst of the water a young
blue-skinned boy smiled at the victims
of his illusion. He continued on to one
of the multiple paths.

---------------------------------------

	"Oh no! Don't tell me I'm lost
again!" Ryoga looked left and right,
searching for Jinnai and Nephrite.

	"Hey Ryoga!" A voice greeted him
in the distance.

	"Huh? Who's there?" Ryoga asked.
Ranma-chan came into view. "Ranma! Y-your
alive!" And then, with a more
disappointed tone. "You alive."

	Ranma-chan ran up to him, angrily.
"Well, of course I am! You didn't
think I'd leave you alone to have
Akane with your P-chan act, didja!?"

	Ryoga grabbed Ranma-chan's colar.
"How dare you think I'd do such a
thing!"

	Ranma-chan grabbed his. "Your
sleeping with Akane in your pig aren't
ya? So why wouldn't you!"

	Ryoga jumped back and got in
a fighting stance. "Enough talk
Ranma! Prepare to die! "Bakusai
Tenketsu!" The Breaking Point move
blast the ground into dozens of small
rocks. Before they could continue
continue their fight, the ground
started to shake violently. The
ground began to crack beneath them.

	"What did you-ahhhh!" Ranma-chan
and Ryoga fell through the rocky
ground. As Ranma-chan fell through
the ground, a tingling sensation came
over her body. She felt her body
changing, as if reacting to the
technology of the Ancients.

---------------------------------

	Jinnai woke up. "What happened?"
He looked up to see Nephrite standing
over him and his bugrom soldiers on
the side.

	"Awake?" He asked.

	"Yes. How long have we been
unconcious?"

	Nephrite shrugged. "I don't
know, five minutes. Let's go. We have
to hurry to find that ultimate weapon.
I don't think were alone in here."

	He and Jinnai ran off in hurry
into one of the paths.

------------------------------------

	The young boy, Nahato, opened
the door to the tomb of Ifurita. The
room was colored with many dark shades
of blue, the room lighted by capsule
looking tomb. The boy grinned. "There
she is. Ifurita."

	The young woman lay, hovering
in the air, with a staff hovering
above her. The woman had delicate
skin and looked coldly emotionless
in her sleep.

	Nahato stared at the large
staff. Testing it, he tapped his
finger on the staff. Harmless
electricity sparked from the staff
to his finger. Convinced, he gripped
the staff firmly. The demon-god of
El Hazard suddenly popped up, like a
door opening. Nahato jumped back in
surprise. Her eyes were still closed.

	He looked around at her body,
as if looking for something. He
found. A small hole right above her
buttocks. Nahato looked the staffs
end. It fitted perfectly wtih the
hole. Getting the idea, he move the
end of the staff closer to the hole.

	"YOU!?"

	"Huh? Uh, y-you!" Nahato
said shock.

	"I'LL MAKE YOU PAY!!!" He ran
up to Nahato. "KACHUTENCHU AMAGURIKEN!!!!"
Ranma's fist of fury hit Nahato like
hammers, its power increased by its
multiple hits. Nahato screamed in pain.

	Nahato flew back far and hit the
ground. He got up and wiped his lip.
Blood dripped from his mouth, bruises
were already spread around his body.
Nahato was NOT a soldier. Running away,
he used his powers, he began to fade
away.

	"Oh, no you don't! Mouko Takibisha!!"
The beam nicked Nahato and sent him
twisting in the air. The boy lay
unconscious on the floor.

	Ryoga and Ranma heard footsteps
in the distance. They turned to see who
they belonged to.

	Jinnai and Nephrite turned walked
into the tomb, followed by several bugroms.
"Here it is! Wha? It's them!" They turned
to see Ranma, Ryoga, the unconcious Nahato.

	"Go! Get them!" Nephrite ordered.
The seven bugrom attacked Ranma and Ryoga.

	Jinnai ran over to the 'Key Staff'.
He picked up, looked at the hole, and
shoved it in. The end of the staff fit
perfectly. He began to wind the staff.
Electricity emerged from the hole, into
the staff, and surrounded Jinnai. It
was the same harmless electricicty from
before.

	"Oh, no you don't! She's mine! I've
waited for this moment ever since I've
heard of her! I will control her!"
Nephrite grabbed the staff.

	"No...she will be in the control of
the Phantom Tribe!"

	"WHAT?" Jinnai and Nephrite looked
at the young blue-skinned boy.

	Nahato got up and he also grabbed
the staff. All of them struggled over
the Key Staff, unknowingly winding it.
Electricity surrounded them. Ifurita
woke. She had no idea who her master was,
so she continued on her original program.
To destroy. Taking her staff, she went into
a rampage and blew away Nahato, Jinnai,
and Nephrite. Her eyes were frieghtenly
emotionless.

	Ranma did a semi-Kachu Tenchu
Amaguriken with his foot, pummeling
a bugrom soldier with it. He thought
back to the time when he changed from
his curse when he came into contact with
the Ancient's technology. Ranma and
Ryoga finished off the bugrom soldiers.
"She might have the cure to my curse!"

	"WHAT? A cure!?" Ryoga said in
surprise.

	Ifurita had no idea of where she
was, but she had to follow her last
command. She pointed her staff at Nahato.
The blue sphere on her staff began to
fill itself with energy. The point surged
with crackling lightning. She fired her
staff with no effort at all. A beam of
of white was shot. It smashed into
Nahato and killed him. She began
to fire randomly at the room. The whole
place began to shake and crumble. The
roof was falling apart.

	"Crap! I think this place is gonna
cave in on us!" Ranma stated.

	(I need more targets,) she thought.
The demon-god's feet hovered off the
ground. She started off toward a hole
in the roof.

	"Wait!" Ranma jumped up off the
ground and grabbed her foot. She ignored
him and kept on flying.

	"If she has a cure for my curse,
then I'm coming too!" Ryoga grabbed Ranma's
foot.

	Nephrite also began to hover off the
ground. "The ultimate weapon is mine!"
He started to follow after them but someone
grabbed his foot.

	"W-wait for me!" Jinnai gripped
Nephrites foot tighter.

	"Get off me you impecile! I don't
need you anymore!" Nephrite conjured some
nega energy and fired it at Jinnai. The
ball smashed into Jinnai and left him on
the ground next to his bugrom lackies.
Nephrite flew off after Ifurita.

	"No! Don't leave me!" But Nephrite
was either to far to hear him or didn't
care. Something tugged Jinnai's sleeve.
"Huh? What is!?"

	The bugrom said something incoherent.

	"NO! Of course were NOT going to
die! Hurry up and help me get out here!
come on!" Jinnai and his bugrom soldiers
raced out of the tomb.

-------------------------------------------

	Taro and Kyoto looked at the
Forbidden Island from their boat. They
could say a battle going on beetween
their friends from the palace and the
bugrom. The bugrom were almost completely
wiped out.

	"When did they get here? And how
come those bugrom are black and white?
I've seen bugrom before and their not
usually that color," asked Kyoto.

	"I know...what? Look at that!"
Taro pointed out at a flying Ifurita
carrying Ranma and Ryoga, being followed
by Nephrite. "They're here too?"

	Kalia frowned. "Damn! She's awake
already!"

	"What? What are you talking about?"
Kyoto and Taro looked questionly at
Kalia.

	"I don't need you two anymore!
Thanks for the ride, though!" Kalia
jumped off the boat and sped in the air
toward Ifurita.

	"That's her! She must be the
demon-god Ifurita! Come on, Taro, let's
go!"

----------------------------------------

	Miz finished off her last Bugrom
Star. The new and improved bugrom were
a lot stronger and smarter than the
normal bugrom. She saw something in the
air. "Oh no! Look! I-it's Ifurita!!"

	"What!?" Shayla, Afura, and Lita
looked up in the sky to what was going
on.

	Nanami, Makoto, Alielle, Fatora,
Ura, and Mr. Fujisawa-who was still
out of power-looked also looked up to
see the Ifurita, Kalia, Ranma, Ryoga,
and Nephrite.

	"Hey! That's the girl I was
telling you about, Alielle! But she...
she looks different!" Fatora told
her lover.

	"Oh, you mean Ranma? I should of
known you were talking about him! That's
Ranma when he's not in his cursed form.
He's actually a guy," Alielle replied
in disappointment.

	"Oh...but they looked so REAL!"
Fatora went into another dream state.

	"I know. So firm and delicate..."
Both Alielle and Fatora looked like
they were going to faint.

	Meanwhile, in the air, Kalia jumped
up to intercept Ifurita. Ifurita saw Kalia
coming. She held up her staff in defence
against Kalia's first attack. Ifurita
pressed her staff against Kalia's arm. Both
were battling for the upper hand. The two
finally broke up, bouncing off each other
and onto the ground, landing on their feet.
Ranma and Ryoga had to let go, but fell safe
on the ground, like cats that always land on
their feet.

	Nephrite flew onto the ground. He
looked around to see all of his Bugrom Stars
beaten and defeated. "Hmph, worthless bugs."

--------------------------------------------

	Taro and Kyoto observed this from their
hover boat. They just about to land on the
Forbidden Island.

	"What the hell is going on?" Kyoto
asked Taro.

	"I don't know, but it definitely looks
like fun." Taro jumped off the boat and onto
the shore. Of course he landed the dry part,
not wanting to turn into his super strong
cursed form. Arms crossed on his chest, he
looked at Kalia. "So, you finally decided to
double-cross us, eh? I was wondering what was
taking you so long."

	Kalia was little surprised. "You knew?"

	"Of course!" Kyoto said from the boat.
He jumped from the boat to the shore. "We
know the whole thing about the Trigger of
Destruction, how you were defeated, about
Ifurita, and the Ancients, and so on..."

	"It was very amusing to watch you
scheme your little schemes," Taro said,
grinning as he watched Kalia clench her
fists in anger.

	"It won't matter since you'll die
anyways when I end the world with the
Trigger of Destruction!"

	Jinnai joined his few remaining
Bugrom on the side. "Nephrite you traitor!"
He said walking up to Nephrite.

	Nephrite shrugged. "You didn't really
expect me to take orders from a human like
you did you?"

	Ranma watched in confusion as everybody
started talking again. He threw up his hands
in frustration. "Argh! What the hell is
going on here!?"

	Ifurita broke the awkawardness of the
situation for Ranma. She started talking to
herself. "Ignoring last command and reverting
to top priority program."

	Everybody looked at the demon-god in
confusion. They had forgot that she was the
dreaded demon-god of El Harzard that destroyed
thousands.

	"Destroy Kalia," Ifurita stated. She
started to charge up her staff again. The
staff fire quick shot Kalia. Kalia jumped up
and flipped over it. Landing behind Ifurita,
Kalia grabbed Ifurita's wrist and held it
tightly.

	Before she could do anything else,
she hit by a ball of fire. The attack caught
her by surprise. She forgot about the priestess'.

	"You don't think we'll just stand by
and watch you destroy the world do you!?"
Shayla said, getting into a battle stance.

	"Especially if Ifurita stops her plan
of total destruction just to take you out!"
Lita pointed out. "That makes both of you
threats!"

	Afura stepped up to take her place
among the other two priestess'. "It is the
duty of the priestess' to stop all evil on
El Hazard."

	Miz raised her hand high in the air
causing water to swirl around her. "In the
name of good we will punish you!"

	Ranma, Kyoto, and Nephrite shudder.
That earns them a glare from Lita.

	"Hey! Will you guys cut that out!
The Sailor Senshi's lines aren't that bad!"
Lita shouted angrily at them.

	"Anyways..." Shayla charges up another
ball of fire. "Die!" Shayla throws it at
Kalia.

	Kalia smirks at Shayla. She tilts
head slightly so that the fireball flies
past her. She raises one of her hands
and waits for something. The big red gems on
her hand begins to glow white. The fireball
that passed her whirls around is absorbed
into the gem. Kalia moves her hand to face
Shayla and releases the fireball that she
just absorbed.

	"What?!" Shayla barely manages to
dodge the attack.

	Likewise, on the other side of Kalia,
Ifurita absorbs Afura's wind attack.
"A high pressure air attack. Simple to
cojure." Ifurita points her staff at Afura.

	"Huh?" Afura looks down and sees
a wind spiral beginning to form at her feet.
Before she can do anything, a gust of wind
blows her away against a tree. She staggers
back up off the ground.

	"They absorbed your attacks!" Lita
said in a surprised tone.

	"Hey! You priestess' aren't going to
destroy my demon-god!" Nephrite summons
his Star Lion. "Attack!" The blue lion
charges at Lita.

	"No, she's my demon-god! Go, my bugrom
soldiers!" Jinnai's personal gaurd begin
to attack the priestess'.

	Miz swipes away a bugrom soldier with
her water powers. "Stop! Don't any of you
understand the danger!"

	"I have know idea what's going on,
but all I know is that he owes me a duel!"
Ranma points at Nephrite.

	"You again!? I'm sick and tired of
you meddling in my affairs!" Nephrite
and Ranma begin to fight each other.

	"Priestess Miz, are you sure that
that's the evil demon-god, Ifurita?"
Makoto asks Miz.

	"Yes, why?"

	"Because that's the same women that
sent me here, to El Hazard!" Makoto replies.

	"What!? But, how can that be?"
Miz looks at Ifurita.

	"All who stand in the way of my
commands must be destroyed," Ifurita stats
plainly.

	"No, Ifurita! You can't!" Makoto runs
over to Ifurita who is about to fire her
staff.

	"Makoto! Don't!" Nanami warns him.
She looks around. "Ura!" The El Hazard cat
looks Nanami knowingly and nods. The cat
dashes after Makoto to become his armor
again.

	Mr. Fujisawa's senses are alerted
as he hears Miz scream. "Miz!" He looks
over to see Miz being attacked by Kalia.
"Leave her alone!" His super strength
suddenly returns to him as he attacks
Kalia angrily.

	The defensless ones, Nanami, Alielle,
and Fatora are looking on worriedly at
the battle. Normally, Fatora wouldn't care
about a senseless battle, but this one
will probably decide if she lives or not.
Where's the defenseless Jinnai, you ask?
He's commanding his small pack of bugrom
to attack the priestess'.

	Ifurita had already attacked
Makoto but was saved by Ura. He now has
no protection against her next attack.
Makoto looks up Ifurita and touches her
staff. Memerories of the past begin to
flood Makoto's mind. Makoto and Ifurita
oversee her past in their minds.

	While that was happening, Ryoga
looked at the in confusion. He couldn't
figure out exactly who to attack. When
it was just him and Ranma, well, it
was just him and Ranma! Luckily the
choice was made for him.

	Kalia smacked aside a boy that
was in her way.

	This is a situation he knew how
to handle. "Hey!" Ryoga swung his
umbrella wildly at Kalia.

	"Time to see how strong I've
become," Taro said, walking over to the
shore. He doused himself with water and
turned into his cursed form.

	Ifurita looked at Makoto angrily
as she clutched her head and backed
away from the high school boy. "What
did you do? What did you just do!?"
Energy formed around the point of her
staff as she charged up again.

	"Rrrooarrr!!!" The monster
screeched at Ifurita.

	Ifurita moved the staff over to
the enemy as its new target. The beam
shot off from the staff and towards
Taro the monster.

	Taro flew up and dodged the
multiple beams shot by Ifurita. He
swung his tentacles at Ifurita and
swatted her staff away.

	Kyoto looked down at his
necklace. The small dark blue orb,
grasped by a dragon claw, glowed a
bright. It was almost the same glowing
white that happened when a portal opened.
"I have a bad feeling about this..."
