There he met Xian Pu (Shampoo) the village champion and got the kiss of death. Chapter One and beyond it will be six months after Phoenix Mountain and the failed wedding attempt. In Sailor Moon, it has been six months after the battle with Galaxia and the subsequent aftermath. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** means signs <> means sounds ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Untitled) Chapter 7 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Abandoned building ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "Gos, how are they?" "Saturn is just tired form holding her Silence Wall for so long and is sleeping. Mercury was knocked out by the wave and should come too soon. Mars is out cold with at least bruised ribs and will be out for a while, even after I healed them. Pluto, I do not even know what is wrong with her?" "I know what happened to Pluto, guys. It is one of her forbidden powers." "What forbidden powers?" asked Yuka. "As she told me once there are five forbidden powers or attacks. The price varies from death to being unconscious for a day." Mercury starts to wake. "Ahhh what happened?" "Easy Lady Mercury. We are sorry to have hit you with the attack." Sayuri pleads. "What? Who? Where?" "Lady you and the others are safe. We got you out of the battle zone. You are the first to awaken." Yuka helps Mercury sit up. Mercury opens here eyes and sees six concerned faces. The inside of the building looks like a gothic cathedral. "Who are you? What happened?" Ranma approaches the group. Mercury stands up with help from the other knights. She sees the other senshi lying on mats resting. "Everyone leave her alone. I will talk to her." People wonder off and look busy while listening. "Who are you?" "My Lady of Mercury I am Ranma Saotome of the Knights of Selene, Order of the Dragon, and commander of the fifth group." Ranma bows to his knees. (Who is he and why the bowing. Lady this, Lady that. That is only used in royal court. Like in England, Japan, or the Moon. The moon, six silver millennium signatures, there are six people in armor and weapons. Could those six reading be the same six that I see here.) Ranma says, "By the look on your face you figured out we are from the Silver Millennium, right." "How did you guess?" "Lady Mercury I could tell by the look of realization on your face." "Alright, but why do you keep calling me Lady Mercury?" "I call you Lady because that is how you and the rest of the senshi were to be addressed on the moon in public. Just as you addressed each of the knights by Sir." "Another question. Where are we at?" "You and the other three senshi are in one of our fallback points. Where we are is in a small forest about eight kilometers from the edge of Nerima." "Mercury-san where we?" Saturn walks up to the two people. "Saturn-chan it is alright. I don't think these people will harm us." Mercury whispers. "Of course Mercury-san, Ranma-oneechan wouldn't hurt us." Saturn smile at Ranma. "Oneechan??" Mercury face faults and the other knights snicker. "I know some floors that need washing. Now who will volunteer." The room clears except for the four Senshi and Ranma. "Now, Saturn how do you remember me?" "Easy when all the people would pick on me I would remember you standing up for me in the palace on the moon." "They still pick on you now?" (If they are picking her maybe volunteering to do a martial arts demonstration at her school is in order. Moko Takabishi time kids. Heh ) "Hai, oneechan. Why are you a guy now not a girl?" *Splash* Laughter can be heard in the air. Mercury whips out her computer and starts muttering about mass to energy conversion. Saturn is stifling a giggle. Ranma just sighs. "Now then since Lady Pyro and Pluto are going to be out for a while. Let us sit down and I have a feeling you both have some questions." "Who are you and what were the knights? What was that thing Pluto was chasing? Who were those people that attacked us? How do you turn into the female sex." "Well the best way to do this is this." Ranma powers down, returning to his Chinese cloths. "Now I am Ranma Saotome Heir to the Saotome School of Anything Goes Martial Arts. As for who the knights were, we were next step down from the senshi in power. We were the commanders of the moon armies and protectors of the Silver Millennium. As to whom Pluto was chasing was a perverted 300-year-old martial artist by the name of Happosai. The people you fought were most of the residential martial artists and I turn into a girl because of a curse." "Onee-chan can you tell Ami-san your story so she can remember?" Saturn does a cute face that would break anyone and cause Azusa Shiotori to go into diabetic shock. "Hai just turn it off." Saturn smiles sweetly. "Well my story starts with my being taken from home at the age of six to train me in martial arts. Ah, Mercury what are you doing with your computer?" "Just recording the story so the others can hear it." "OK?!" Ranma speaks about the Nekoken. Ami is shocked and frowns. Hotaru holds her glaive tight and mumbles about a certain father and needing glaive practice. The multiple fiancées, the Nerima Wrecking Crew, the Amazons, and all the rest of his life." To say Mercury and Hotaru are shocked is the understatement of the Millennium. "Ranma-san I find this fascinating, but what does this have to do with you and the others being these knights?" "After Jusankyo my baka father played around with a magic scroll that sent me to the Silver Millennium. After getting straighten out and out of the hospital,.. "What do you mean out of the hospital?" "Well when I came through the Time Gates I rammed in to Pluto knocking her into Uranus and fell on Mars. Uranus was the first to get up and asked what I was doing here. I called her an uncute, undersexed, and built like a brick tomboy. Uranus pulled out her sword and as she said later to fix the male problem in the room." "Is that all oneeee-chan?" "Alright I kind of called Mars a crazy fire flinging b&$#%. After being stabbed, fried, slashed, and blasted I was put in the hospital. As I was recovering, Queen Serenity decided to have me become a knight until Pluto could get me to the right time." "Why couldn't she just send you back at once?" "Ask Pluto, she may actually give you a complete answer." "She was like that on the moon?" "She was; there was an old expression if Pluto gives you a straight answer. It is the end of the world." Everyone laughs. "I possible recall you from the moon, but no completely recollection. Could you tell us some more Ranma-kun, kudasai (please)?" "Do you remember a cocky, arrogant person who couldn't keep his mouth shut if his life depended on it." "Yes, I remember you! You were the one who I had to tutor. You are the single most stubborn man that I ever met." Mercury is smirking. "What? I am not stubborn!" Mercury and Saturn glares at Ranma. "Alright maybe I am a little. Fine! At least I didn't take a kingdom falling to pull my head out of a book!" "YOU!! MERCURY AUQA RAPHASPDY" Ranma on ice. "Don't you ever dare talk about my home like that again Ranma!" "Ami-san is Ranma-onee-chan going to be all right?" Hotaru looks at a ice block containing one frozen knight. "Yes Hotaru-chan, he will be alright I applied aversion therapy all the time when he spoke inconsiderately. Well lets check on the others." Mercury and Saturn walk off. Ranma is still frozen in the middle of the room. (I see Mercury still has it. I wish she didn't. I hope someone comes soon. HELP) ------------------------------------------- (unknown place) ------------------------------------------- "Jadeite I am most displeased. You have failed to eliminate the knight or succeed in anything else. What do you have to say for yourself?" "I have not failed my lord. I learned that the knight is a Ranma Saotome and I have captured his fiancée and friend." "Yes that is fine, but did you know that while you were converting them. The knights met with at least four senshi." "Did you say knights as in plural?" "Yes I did and there are six of them." "Eep!" "Jadeite I do not approve of my subordinates wetting themselves because of a little problem. Do not appear before me until you have something to report or have killed the knights any of them. Before you go clean up after yourself." The shadow snaps its fingers. Wham!! A mop and bucket fall on Jadeite. "Sir that looks pretty heavy for a mop and bucket?" "I took them from someone named Lawrence Hibiki from school called Souji Fu (cleaning Martial Arts) The broom is especially heavy. When I was about to finish him off he takes a step and disappears. This world is deferential strange." ------------------------------------ (Tendo Dojo) night is falling ------------------------------------ Soun is pulling himself in the door. "Oh my Father where is Mr. Saotome? Oh did you get your hair cut?" "Whhaaa Kasumi it is such a tragedy. The schools will never be joined." Thump! Nabiki drops the mallet. "Nabiki, you shouldn't hit father with Akane's small mallet." "Easy sis dad needs his sleep. He had a rough day and you can disarm the traps on our panties. The lech is probable will not be back." Nibiki explains the battle, leaving out Ranma's part. "Oh and Genma is not coming back for the night; he, Ryoga, Shampoo, Mousse, and Cologne are spending the night at the zoo. Tarou was taken by the SDF for national security. Animal control appeared at the scene when a concerned citizen called them. Cologne had to be tranquilized. Some biologist thinks she is an old monkey or the missing link. I just happened to mention that these animals are afraid of hot water." Nabiki eyes sparkle with hidden laughter. "Oh Nabiki how could someone do such a terrible thing." Kasumi has a real smile not her normal one. "I better start dinner for the two of us and Ranma." "I don't think Ranma is coming home tonight. I think he is staying with friends." "My just the two of us and a quiet night. Should I call the ladies for poker?" "Yes, what has it been six months. Lets see Mrs. Tsunkino, Mrs. Mizuno if she has the night off, Mrs. Aino, Mrs. Lum Moraboshi, and Mrs. Saotome. Won't this story knock them dead." *Now recruiting! If you are female and your family member is a super powered Heroine or Hero. We are looking for you, the Women's Support League.* "I do believe that it will Nabiki. Oh I had better make dinner and snacks." Kasumi walks off to the kitchen. ---------------------------------- (Zoo lab) ---------------------------------- "I tell you that thing in there has to be the missing link. It swears is a human female, but it can't be to become that small it would have to be at least two hundred years old. Thank god we drugged it again, it was saying that the Chinese Amazons would hunt us down for this insult. What Chinese Amazons, never heard of them? Lets begin the examine." "Yes sir." "It broken free. Oh dear lord it has broken free." "Now I will show you what the punishment is for this insult. For I am Cologne, Matriarch of the Chinese Amazon." (Private note; get instant girl packet and splash Kuno. Also, apply Cats Tongue, that man is more annoying than Happy.) The lab techs and doctor; are pounded, smashed, and pasted into unrecognized piles. "Come Shampoo lets go home. This has been a wearying day." ---------------------------------- End of Chapter 7 ---------------------------------- This one took a while with life, classes, work, and my writing people out of character. C&C will be appreciated. My vote for which female Ranma ends up with is over 100 votes now. Thank you to all those who voted and I am still taking votes for any female except for Usagi, Haruka, and Michura. Also a thanks to my two prereaders James Merritt and Jeremy H. Fogelman. In chapter eight we meet shadow number three of the bad guys. Old reunions, grudges, and we find out what happens to poor martial artists. --------------------------------- OMAKE! OMAKE! OMAKE! --------------------------------- Miss Adventures of Happy --------------------------------- "We located that angel Misato. What do we do?" "Kill it Shinji. You to Rei, same Asuka." "No pervert get a grab on me and lives. What do you say wonder girl?" "I say rip him apart and use him as a baseball." Everyone: (Rei showing emotion!) People pass out mostly men. The women are routing. Happpousai: "What a Haul! What a haul! Where ever you are Pluto thank you. No one to stop me and beautiful women are every where. What can stop me!" Three shadows cover him. "Uhho! Yaaaaaa!!!!" "Gendo whats wrong?" "This isn't in the scenario. HEEHHHAAAA This isn't in the scenario." "Poor man he final snapped from the pressure. Take him away gentlemen." Four guys in white lab coats haul Gendo away in a straight jacket. "I need to have that annoying tree painted over." ---------------------------------- Seele Table ---------------------------------- "Gendo is no longer in charge of NERV." "Yes this new Angel and Gendo going insane is not in the scrolls." "Could the scrolls be wrong, could we be wrong." Everyone: "Naaa" "We shall continue with the present scenario. What can go wrong." ------------------------------------------------
