Ranma VS the power of Voodoo.

Capitalize "power", as it is a significant word in a title.

Disclaimer: The characters are not mine, not at all. They belong to Rumiko Takashi, and this is intended as a tribute, if anything.

Note: Set post manga or something.  Probably violates cannon somewhere.

Ranma and Akane ran towards school, hand in hand.  Maybe, things might turn out allright after all.  They cleared the gate, and standing

Things? Which things? I would either expand on this comment or drop it.

Suggest you describe a few noteworthy details of his regalia. Calling it
"downright weird" doesn't really help me picture it.

Standing somewhat wobbily behind a set of complex markings on the ground, looking as if he had had even less sleep than normal, his 

normal pallor even worse than it had been the entire time they had knonw him, was a shakey Hikaru Gosunkugi. Self styled voodoo

You've got some major problems with line wrapping throughout this. Wrap at 70-80
characters maximum per line, and don't doublespace. There are formatting tools
listed in the FAQ in case you can't manage to get Open Office configured to do
this.

Ranma just looked at Akane, feeling extremely defensive of her, and not really knowing what on earth to expect from the voodoo boy.  His

The target of this rather pitious moan quickly assumed a stance and waited for his oponent to make a move of some sort.  It was not long 

at all before the zombie, with bits of zombe flaking off, began it's attack.  "Ungggggggg!" it cried, and shuffled forward.  Ranma just stared

This bit was funny.
