welcome.

[Kuno wanders into the Nekohanten. Shampoo is crying at a table, Mousse at
her side trying to console her.]
Mousse: Come on Shampoo, Ranma loves Akane.. Just as I love you.
Shampoo: If not for stupid spirit, Ranma would no marry violent-girl.
Kuno: (Devil's voice thinking) What? She remembers? They must die before
they cause me any trouble.
[Kuno wields his bokken and creaps up behind Shampoo and bludgeons her to
death. Mousse jumps up and tries to sling his hidden weapons at Kuno, but
kuno slings his bokken into Mousse's face. His glasses fly across the
room. He stubles around looking for him, and knocks a glass of water onto
himself. Mousse-duck flies around the cafe with Kuno taking swipes at
him.]
Kuno: Hold still you idiot.
[Mousse flies into a wall knocking himself unconcious. Kuno walks over to
Mousse's glasses and stomps them to bits. He laughs and turns to leave. He
shoves Shampoo's body out of the chair and onto the floor.]
Kuno: It's too bad, it would have been fun to see the look on their faces
when you killed Ranma. I better hurry before they go through with this
marriage.
[Kuno steps over Shampoo's body and exits the Nekohanten and heads towards
the Tendo's]
(-\*/-)
[Cologne grabs Ryoga's hand and drags him towards the Nekohanten. They
stop in front of the door and Cologne orders him to stay there. Cologne
bounces into the Nekohanten.]
Cologne: No..
[Cologne bounces over to Shampoo and takes her pules. Finding none she
stands up and bounces over to Mousse. She shakes him and he quacks softly.
She grabs him and takes him over to the sink and turns the hot water on.
She splashes some on him then turns around allowing him to dress.]
Cologne: What happened here?
Mousse: It was here, as that Kendo idiot. He snuck up behind us as we were
talking.. I should have felt him here.. I was so absorbed in helping
Shampoo. I failed her.
[Mousse collapses to his knees and cries.]
Cologne: Get up Mousse. We have to destroy this thing.
[Mousse slowly climbs to his feet and follows Cologne out the door. She
looks from left to right, Ryoga is no where to be seen.]
Cologne: That fool, does he not remember what I told him.. He'll never
find his way to the Tendo's.
[Cologne hops on her staff towards the Tendo Training Hall, Mousse
following the sound of her staff hitting the ground.]
(-\*/-)
[Tendo Dojo. Genma and Ukyou guard the door while Hiroshi and Nabiki,
Daisuke and Kasumi, and Ranma and Akane (dressed semi-formally) stand
beside a priest.]
Priest: Who should I start with?
Akane: Kasumi, she's still a little weak from going into shock. She needs
to get off her feet as soon as she can.
[The Priest nods and turns to face Daisuke and Hiroshi.]
Priest: Do you, Daisuke Kubota, take Kasumi Tendo, to be your wedded
wife?
Daisuke: I do.
Priest: Do you. Kasumi Tendo, take Daisuke Kubota, to be your wedded
husband.
Kasumi: I do.
Priest: I now pronounce you, man and wife. You may kiss the bride.
Kasumi: Oh my!
[Daisuke leans in and kisses Kasumi on the cheek. Nabiki snaps a picture,
then hides the camera behind her back innocently.]
Priest: Okay, next.
[Akane shoves Nabiki foward.]
Akane: After you, Nabiki.
[Nabiki swears under her breath and fails to notice Hiroshi wink at
Akane.]
Priest: Do you, Hiroshi Takechi, take Nabiki Tendo, to be your wedded
wife?
Hiroshi: I do.
Priest: Do you, Nabiki Tendo, take Hiroshi Takechi, to be your wedded
husband?
[Nabiki looks at her finger nails idlely.]
Nabiki: I suppose.
Priest: I now pronounce you, man and wife. You may kiss the bride.
Nabiki: A kiss is another 5000 yen.
[Hiroshi shrugs and leans in and kisses Nabiki.. hard. Akane whips a
camera from hammerspace and snaps a picture.]
Hiroshi: Bill me.
[Ranma rolls on the floor laughing, while Nabiki stands unmoving.]
Genma: Get up, boy. Time's a wasting.
[Ranma gets up and glances nervously at Akane.]
Ranma: Guess it's our turn.
Akane: Yeah..
Ranma: Sorry it has to be rushed like this..
[Ranma puts a hand behind his head. Akane takes his other, causing him to
blush.]
Akane: Better than not at all.
Priest: Do you..
[The Priest is interrupted by a loud smashing noise. Kuno stands on top of
a pile of rubble that used to be part of the dojo wall.]
Kuno: Saotome, prepare to die!
[Akane gets angry and glares at Kuno.]
Akane: Why does this *always* happen?
[Akane pulls out her mallet and slams it over the charging Kuno's head. He
falls to the ground unconcious, then is surrounded by purple smoke.]
Ukyou: It had him too.. oh shit..
[Ukyou is cut off by the smoke surrounding her and entering her body.]
Ukyou: Ha! Fools, you cannot stop me.. I shall see you in hell Akane
Tendo.
[Ranma takes a battle stance.]
Ranma: If you want Akane, you have to go through me.
Ukyou: My pleasure. Prepare to suffer, mortal.
