"There was nothing I could do and sh-she, SHE INSISTED ON LEAVING
A LIVING WITNESS BEHIND!"

     "Oh!", said Konatsu as he relaxed visibly, "And, of course, by
the time the compulsion wears off our lead time will have become too
great for interferance to be viable. That is...good. That is very
good! I would have...*disliked* the need to have implemented
professional procedure even though you all have my word that the
dislike would not have slowed my hand."

     The way he said that drew a hard look from Shampoo and sent a
shiver down Miss Kuonji's spine. It was only then that Ukyo remembered
once more the way his stepmother had mentioned that he was a ninja by
*instinct* as well as by training.

     "I just want to remind you that I was present when Miss Akane
mentioned all the things that you had done to her and that my eye is
on you. I wish you to know that if you attempt anything of the sort
on Mistress Ukyo I would feel compelled to take certain steps."

By any chance are you a fan of Terry Pratchett?  Konatsu's dialogue is very
similar to Captain Carrot's



"You don't have to drive 200 KPH on the way to Colonel Chicken!
The FOOD IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE!"
