Sonic

Chapter 43
Back to Cheerleading Martial Arts
Flower Fight???

"Honesty, are you two ever going to wake up?" asked Kia with her hands on her hips by Rose and Sonic's bed, "You've been asleep now for 3 days now!

Sonic rubbed his eyes and looked towards Kia. A moment later he screamed was hanging on the ceiling, "WHY ARE YOU DRESSED LIKE THAT?" he yelled.

Kia looked at her pink maid outfit for a moment, "Oh this? Jeremy put holy water in the washing machine while I was washing my usual outfit. Until I can get the holiness out of my old clothes, I'll where this outfit which I found in a box of costumes in the attic," she replied.

"We have an attic?" asked Sonic still hanging on the ceiling.

"Looks cute on you," said Rose sitting up with her pink hair in a mess.

"Why Thank You," said Kia with a big smile on her face before she took off.

"Sounds like you are in a better mood," said Sonic dropping to the floor, "I guess you just needed a good nap." Rose gave a small blush as she got out of bed and went to the closet.

"Good Morning all," said Sonic walking into the kitchen coming his black hair.

"Finally up aye?" said Jeremy grinning.

"Yep," said Sonic pulling over a chair, "So what's the breakfast?"

"This," said Emily placing a plate in front of Sonic. It only took Sonic a second to realize he was giving human blood covered eggs. Sonic pushed the plate aside, "I think I just lost my appetite."

"Ooops," said Emily, "That was Kia's meal. KIA BREAKFAST IS READY!"

Kia came instantly and sat down at the table and began to eat her meal.

"Morning everyone," said Rose as she came in and sat down, "Boy am I starved!"

"At least you still have your appetite," said Sonic as his face turn green, "Excuse me."

"What happen to him?" asked Rose as Emily gave her some scrambled eggs and bacon.

"I accidentally gave him Kia's plate," replied Emily.

"Ahhh, that makes sense," said Rose taking a bite out of her eggs as Sonic walked back in looking better, "Got your appetite back yet?"

"No," replied Sonic, "I had to borrow one from the medicine cabinet. Where's today's paper?"

"Here you go," said Jeremy handing Sonic the paper as Emily put a dish of scramble eggs and bacon in front of him.

"Hmmm, looks like there is a girl soccer game today at Furinkan High School," said Sonic, "Looks like Akane Tendo is going to be playing."

"Sounds interesting," said Rose taking a drink of Orange juice, "Want to go to the game?"

"Sure why not," said Sonic putting the paper down and taking a bite of the eggs, "Yummm, these are pretty good Emily."

At Seishun Academy

"Seishun's the Best, Seishun's the best, better than the rest!" cheered some cheerleaders practicing with their balms.

"Hey Mariko, are you going to cheer for Furinkan High School again?" asked a girl.

"Not this time, Kuno-sama isn't playing," replied Mariko Konjo, "But that Tendo girl is, so we best be prepared!"

"Right," said the girl handing Mariko her favorite baton, "We'll show her Seishun's Cheerleading Love!"

In The Tendo Dojo

"AIIYYYAAA!" yelled Akane smashing a brick in half.

"Working out before the match Akane?" asked Ranma walking in.

"Yep," replied Akane, "We're fighting Seishun again, and there is no way I'm going to let Mariko cheat this time!"

"Mariko??" asked Ranma, "Oh yea, from cheerleading martial arts!"

"Honestly," said Akane, "Can't you ever remember people's names?"

Later that day in the soccer field

"This will be a soccer tournament between Furikian and Seishun's girl soccer team," said the referee, "Lets have a fair game today! Begin!"

The game began with lack of events, Akane's team had the upper hand having Akane of course. The Seishun's team was having a hard time blocking, let alone getting the ball. Over in the stands, Sonic, Rose, Ranma, Kasumi, Soun, and Genma where cheering them on. Rose had got a big stack of snacks for the match which was a little unusual of her, but Sonic figured it was only natural after the stress she went through.

"Place your bets," called Nabiki going through the stands, "Last chance to place your bets."

Rose looked at Nabiki with a sigh before she pulled out some popcorn, "Oh, would you like some Kasumi?"

"Yes, Thank you Emeral," replied Kasumi taking a cup full of popcorn.

"Not very eventful," said Sonic to Ranma eating some Nacho's and cheese.

"Told you," replied Ranma chewing on some Okonomiyaki, "I only came for the free food you promised."

"Figures," said Sonic as his eye caught an old man in a black robe sitting on the upper stand, "MM?"

The old man was watching the game as he held a pen in his hand. He had some paper with him as he taped his pen as if he was thinking of what to write. Sonic tapped Rose's shoulder who looked where Sonic was pointing.

"What is HE up to now?" asked Rose telepathically.

Soon MM gave an expression as if he just had a brain storm and quickly jotted it down on his paper. A moment latter what he wrote glowed brightly before vanishing. Before Rose or Sonic had a chance to guess what just happened they heard some of the girls scream in the field.

"SWEETO!" yelled Happosai bouncing on another girl's chest.

"Where did Happosai come from?" asked Sonic.

"That old freak," said Ranma, "He hid himself in the soccer ball!"

"I bet MM did that," said Rose starting to get up only to be stopped by Sonic.

"Let me go talk to him," said Sonic, "It would be safer to keep you away from him."

Rose was tempted to smack Sonic, but she knew he was right and dismissed it with a turn of the cheek. Sonic looked back up at MM before he walked over to where he was. "What are you up to?" asked Sonic looking over MM's shoulder.

"Trying out my Pen Totosai made," said MM.

"What exactly does it do?" asked Sonic.

"It causes any curse I write down to become real," said MM writing on the paper "Sonic get splashed with Spring of Drown Girl"

"Fascinating," said Sonic-chan as she shook off the water, "Could you please change me back?"

"I'll think about it," said MM standing up and vanishing.

Sonic looked at his female self for a moment before she walked over back to Rose, "He was trying out his new Pen, makes anything he writes come true."

Rose grinned, "You were right, it was better for you to go alone."

Sonic blushed before she turned back to the game, "Only 3 to 0, Furikian aye?"

"Yep, If it wasn't for the food, I would go home," said Rose.

"AHH" yelled one of the Furikian soccer girls as they collapse on the field.

"Not her again," said Ranma looking up.

Mariko Konjo was standing in the side lines twirling her baton, "S-E-I-S-H-U-N" she cheered.

"I Knew you were going to cheat again!" yelled Akane starting to run towards Mariko.

"Cheerleading Martial Arts technique, Cutter batons!" cried Mariko throwing several batons like saws right for Akane.

"Akane, Look Out!" yelled Ranma starting to dash off only to find Emeral had stepped in front of Akane and caught all six batons.

"Looks like she beat ya to it," said Sonic grinning.

"Nice Catch!" said Mariko, "Who might you be?"

"Emeral Bellosom," replied Rose tossing the batons into Happosai’s face as he ran to glomp her, "Some cheerleaders you are!"

"What ever do you mean?" asked Mariko, "This is Cheerleading Martial Arts you girl!"

Rose expression turned a bit angry, "Cheerleading is all about cheering, NOT attacking your teams opponents!"

"Um, you sure?" asked Mariko looking at all the Furikian girls laying on the ground, KOed by the other cheerleading batons.

Rose grew rather angry at this, so angry in fact that Akane decided to take a few steps back. "I was starting to feel better," said Rose, "But you just ruined my day!"

"Would that mean you would like to challenge me?" asked Mariko.

A Light bulb suddenly popped above Rose's head, "Yes, I do challenge you! A week from today in the Furinkan Gym, you and me in Cheerleading Martial arts!"

"Two problems with that," said a Furikian boy sitting near the two, "First of all, your not a student of Furikian anymore."

"I'm not?" asked Rose giving a glare at the Principle who was sitting in a Hawaiian outfitted area, "Hey Principle! Am I a student?"

The Principle seeing Rose's glare knew he better answer correctly as his life may depend on it, "Emeral is one of me school's student-teachers ya" yelled the principle.

"Thank you," said Rose smiling, "What was the other problem?"

"Doesn't martial arts cheerleading require another sport to cheer for?" asked the boy.

"Yea so?" asked Rose.

"There is nothing scheduled for next week, so who will you be cheering?" replied the boy.

"Hmmm," thought Rose for a moment, "Ahh, I know! We can have a volleyball match between Shampoo, Ukyo and Kodachi against Akane, Emily and Katarina!"

"And why would we agree to this?" asked Ukyo scaring everyone.

"Because the winning team will get an all expenses paid trip to Kyoto to enjoy the coming of summer!" said Rose.

"Sounds good enough for me," said Ukyo.

"So do we have a challenge?" asked Rose eyeing Mariko.

"Yes, we do," replied Mariko, "And by the way, it looks like my school won."

Everyone looked back at the field to find the Seishun team kicking balls into the unmanned goal just as a buzzer sound. "The winner is Seishun Academy!" said the referee.

Later...

"Did you really have to challenge Mariko?" asked Sonic as the two of them walked back home.

"Yes, I did," said Rose.

"Well I guess that is ok," said Sonic, "But aren't you worried about MM showing up?"

"Well DUH I am!" yelled Rose, "In fact, I think we need to pay him a visit!"

"Now just hold on!" said Sonic as Rose grabbed him by his now long hair, activated the pendant, and stepped inside.

In the strange world MM created for their meetings, Sonic reverted back to him male form. "At least he was kind enough to change me back," said Sonic.

"What can I do for you two kiddies this time?" asked MM appearing out of nothing.

"I want you to leave this challenge I'm in alone!" yelled Rose.

"You are in no position to tell me what to do," grinned MM.

"Didn't your mother ever teach you to be polite to a lady!" yelled Rose transforming Hikari to it's wand state and heading straight for MM.

MM simply sighed and pulled out his pen which transformed into it's huge sword state. The aura it gave off felt like a beast howling at it's opponent. A moment later Hikari transformed back to a key leaving Rose by herself.

"Damn You...DAMN YOU! DAMN DAMN DAMN YOU!" yelled Rose falling down and beating the floor with her fist as she started to cry, "Why can't you ever leave me alone!"

MM looked at Rose crying and believe it or not, the old coot actually felt sorry for her. He watched her for a bit as Rose continued to cry, making his heart feel heavy. Soon Sonic walked up and gave MM a wink as Rose wasn't watching. Intrigued, MM decided to play along, "Ok Rose, I just can't stand seeing you cry anymore, I'll leave your match alone," said MM.

Rose slowly stopped crying and looked up, "You mean it?" she said as her sorrow changed to delight.

"Yep, but if you don't mind, I need to borrow your husband for a moment, there is something I want him to check for me," said MM.

"Sonic?" asked Rose looking at him, "I guess it's ok." With that she left the world back to Nerima.

"So, you want to make a deal," said MM looking at Sonic.

"Yes, anything to keep Rose happy," said Sonic.

"Curse the students at Furikian during the whole week," replied MM.

"Make them temporary," said Sonic.

"Ok than, and a case of your blood wine," replied MM.

"Deal," said Sonic shaking MM's hand.

On The way back to their house

"So what did MM want from you?" asked Rose who was actually a bit cheerful.

"He had a question about DS that he knew I would prefer not to talk about," said Sonic hopping she would buy it.

"I see," said Rose, "Lets turn in early, I need to practice in the morning."

"Sounds good," said Sonic, "I have a busy day tomorrow too."

On top of a building Several blocks away in the shadows stood DS watching Sonic and Rose. He was tossing several shards from hand to hand as he eyed the two. "So they are going to have a match with that Mar..something-and-other girl from that Sessy-something Academy," thought DS. A moment later he realized he what he had called Mariko and Seishun Academy shocking him to the floor. "Damn, that trip I took from Wendy still has my head messed up," thought DS shaking his head, "At any point, this is a perfect opportunity."

DS eyed Sonic for a moment longer before he vanished. A second later Sonic turned to where DS had been, he eyed the location before he shook off the feeling and continued with Rose.

Over in Mariko's Room

"G-O-O-D-N-I-G-H-T, Good Night Kuno Honey," said Mariko kissing her banner of Kuno. With that she flipped the light switch and went to bed.

After she was out like a rock, a dark aura formed near her bed and materialized DS. He looked at Mariko for a moment with a grin before he looked up and saw Kuno's Poster. DS fell backwards almost making enough noise to wake Mariko, "What the hell is with this girl!?! And here I thought I had bad taste!" thought DS.

"Now where is her baton," thought DS as he looked around the room. After a moment of moving Kuno inspired objects with disinfecting gloves, he found her baton. After a moment of analyzing it, he flicked a shard into the center where it attached in the center of the bar.

"That should do it," said DS placing the baton down, "Now to get out of this Hentai room!"

That Morning at Seishun Academy

"Your up rather early Mariko," said one of the cheerleaders coming into the Gym.

"Yep, I'm getting ready for that match," replied Mariko tossing a 'baton cutter' knocking off all thee heads on the dummies she had laying out.

"You've gotten good," said another cheerleader, "You used to be only able to knock off one head at a time."

"It's my love for Kuno Honey!" said Mariko grasping her hands to her chest, "Oh Kuno Honey."

At Furinkan High School

"Good Morning you two," said Akane walking with Ranma into the school.

"Good Morning Akane, Ranma" said Katarina walking alone side with her brother.

"You guys here about the challenge?" asked Akane as they walked into the locker room.

"Yea," said Kalshion, "It's only on every newspaper in town."

"I guess Emeral wanted to get a big audience," said Ranma opening his locker, "What the...What is this?"

"What's what?" asked Akane looking in his locker to find some wooden shoes, "Looks like wooden shoes."

"Who put wooden shoes in my locker?" asked Ranma as Katarina and Kalshion opened their lockers revealing the same wooden shoes.

"Akane?" asked one of Akane's friends, "Do you know why everyone is finding wooden shoes in their lockers?"

"I have no idea," said Akane, "but we better put them on and get to class or we'll be late."

"I hope I don't regret this," said Ranma putting on the wooden shoes and placing his shoes into his locker.

A few minutes later Ranma and Akane were running to their classroom just as the bell rang, "Hurry Ranma, or we'll be late!" Akane opened the classroom door and ran in with Ranma, only to find themselves in the middle of an ocean with student chairs floating about. Hinako was sitting on her floating desk wondering how she was going to teach the class as the other students were walking about on top of the water with their wooden shoes.

"I guess it was a good thing we had these wooden shoes," said Akane with a shocked look on her face.

"Hey Look, a school of fish," said a Girl pointing to the shadows in the water that were swimming buy. The school swam around the class as if it was stocking down prey.

"I hope they aren't sharks," said another girl as the school came charging at her only to pop out of the water revealing Happosais.

"It's worse, it's a school of Happosais!" yelled Ranma as Happosais began to jump in and out of the water trying to glomp the girls.

"RANMA!" yelled a Happosai, "Change to a girl now!"

"Like I would listen to a stinky old man like you," yelled Ranma just as he was splashed with water changing him to a girl.

"WHY YOU!" yelled Ranma trying to punch one of the Happosais only to loose his balance and fall into the water.

"Ranma!" yelled Akane just as a Happosai tried to glomp her only to be smacked by her bag.

"Dirty pervert," said Ranma under the water trying to kick one of the Happosais.

"SWEETO!" yelled more Happosais as they gathered around Ranma. Before he knew it he was covered head to toe with Happosais and was sinking. Ranma tried to break free but wasn’t having any luck.

"LET ME GO!" Ranma-chan yelled as he suddenly fell to the ground. When he got up he found he was back in his normal class room with everyone else. The only thing odd was everything was soaking wet. "What just happened?" he asked.

"No clue," said Akane taking her wooden shoes off, "But these things are going!"

Everyone soon followed her as they threw their shoes out the window joining the shoes the other classes had just thrown out the window. After a nice pile of wooden shoes was made, a bright pink glow came from them blinding everyone for a moment. When everyone could see again, they found a pile of pink panties laying where the shoes where. It didn't take long for Happosai to pass by and jump into the pile.

"I get the feeling this is going to be a long week," said Akane looking at Hinako who still had her wooden shoes on, "WHY do you still have those on Teacher?"

"Because I didn't get glomped," pouted Hinako causing the entire class to go out like a light.

Nothing out of the ordinary happened for the rest of the morning. During lunch some girls noted Sonic was laying in a tree in his red robe getup. "What are you up to Joe?" asked one of the girls.

Sonic looked at them, "Just enjoying the nice summer day."

"Where's your girlfriend?" asked another.

"My Wife is practicing for the match this Sunday," said Sonic looking back up at the sky.

"Your WIFE?" screamed the girls.

"Yea, didn't you guys figure that out when you realized who we were?" asked Sonic a bit confused.

"Not really," said one of the girls, "Well enjoy your self."

"Don't worry, I will," said Sonic trying his best not to grin.

"We've got to tell the others," said one of the girls, "We've got a married couple here!"

"We haven't had news this exciting since we heard about Akane and Ranma's engagement!" said the other.

"Do they even realize I can still hear them?" thought Sonic looking at the clouds when he noticed an eagle come out of no where and headed towards him, "About time!"

The Eagle landed on Sonic's wrist and dropped a card in his other hand, "Lets see now," said Sonic.

Curse Grade: B-
You show allot of potential, try looking deeper into your mischief heart.
Oh, I'll have the book delivered to you first thing in the morning.

- MM

"You think he would give me a flat B instead," said Sonic looking at a watch, "Any time now the second curse should activate."

At the Lunch Line

"Give Me Curly Bread!" yelled a boy.

"I was here first you jerk," yelled a girl tackling the boy.

"Did you get what you wanted Ranma?" asked Akane as Ranma walked up with some bread.

"Yep, where did you want to eat?" asked Ranma.

"I told Ukyo we would meet on the roof today," replied Akane as the two walked to the stairs.

"Ahh, There you are," said Ukyo waving when Ranma and Akane popped up.

"Sorry to keep you waiting," said Akane sitting down next to her.

"Lets Eat!" said Ranma pulling out a piece of bread and taking a bite. It only took him half a second to realize the bread was harder than a rock but a full second to realize what it tasted like. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" screamed Ranma before he collapsed.

"What is it Ran-chan?" asked Ukyo.

"Th..Th...The Food..." choked Ranma.

"Hmmm?" asked Akane taking a bite out of his bread only to be fried to a crisp from the shock of what it tasted like.

"What's wrong with you two?" asked Ukyo taking a bite, "EEECK! Th..is....Tas.te...like....A..Akane's...Cooking!"

A moment later the entire school was field with screams and chocking sounds as everyone who bought lunch found it to be exactly like Akane's cooking, or at least thoughes who knew what her cooking tasted like.

"What's This?" asked the Principle finding all his students chocking on the store bought food, "OH MY GOD, FOOD POISIONING! Me Call Hospital!" He dashed off to the nearest phone and picked up the receiver to find it was dead. As he was putting it up he heard a tumbling sound from above. When he looked up he was just in time to find ninety-nine pineapples fall on him before they exploded.

After a moment the Principle slowly got up smothering with smoke, "99 Pineapples? Why not 100 even?" he asked. *SMASH* "Me Take it Back!" yelled the Principle with a pineapple with "100 Tons" written on it on his back.

Sonic was now on a higher tree watching the school when the explosion occurred. He smirked at the location where the smoke was coming up from, "I can see why MM enjoys this so much," he said to himself.

In the Dojo now behind Rose's house

"You built this entire dojo just to practice?" asked Emily looking around. The Dojo was the size of a basketball stadium inside but was only half the size of the Tendo Dojo on the outside.

"Well, I'm sure we can use it after the match too," said Rose in a cheerleader outfit twirling batons.

"I still can't believe you convinced dad not to interfere," said Emily.

"I guess the old coot has a heart after all," smirked Rose as she tossed the batons into the air only to have them smash into her head a second later.

Emily laughed for a moment, "Never say things like that about dad when your in his world."

Rose rubbed her head, "Thanks, I'll keep that in mind."

"So do you have any special techniques for this battle?" asked Emily.

"Just the usual techniques," said Rose, "Although, I think I just got an idea. Where did I put that pay phone."

"You put a pay phone in the dojo?" pondered Emily.

"Yea," replied Rose finding the pay phone and pulling out the phone book, "Kia's been making allot of phone calls recently putting one hell of a fee on my bill."

"Who in the Matrix could she be calling?" asked Emily.

"Case," said Rose finding the name she was looking for. She picked up the phone and was about to dial when she placed the phone back up, "Our address is 951 Tempest Lane right?"

"Last time I checked yes," replied Emily.

"Than why didn't I notice the house that is on 954 Tempest Lane?" stormed Rose as she walked out of the dojo.

"What's up with her?" asked Emily putting a finger to her cheek.

Back at Furinkan High...

"I'm so hungry," said Ranma walking to his locker, "Could you cook me up something Uk-chan?"

"Sure Ran-chan," said Ukyo delighted to here the question, although Akane seemed a bit jealous.

The three of them grabbed their shoes from their lockers and headed off to Ukyo's shop. As they turned into the main street of town, a man carrying a crate passed them. Suddenly an updraft wind caused Akane's skirt to fly up where she quickly pushed it back down.

"Good thing I'm not wearing a skirt today," said Ukyo looking at Akane's skirt.

"That was a bit weird," said Akane, "I didn't step over any vents or anything to cause that."

The three continued to walk to Ukyo's passing more men on the way, each time an updraft caused Akane's skirt to fly up. Finally making it to Ukyo's, Ukyo let Akane change into a spare long pants uniform.

"Why does this updraft keep happing?" asked Akane as Ukyo handed Ranma his plate.

"Beats me," said Ukyo as she watched Ranma eagerly take a bite out of her Okonomiyaki only to be horrified by Ranma collapsing on the floor. "Ran-chan, RAN-chan!"

"Ranma, what is it?" asked Akane helping him back up.

"Uk-chan, is one of your ingredients expired or something? That tasted like Akane cooked it!" said Ranma.

"Wha?" said Akane looking at Ukyo who had become like a statue from shock, "Let me take a bite." A moment later Akane was again fried to a crisp from the taste of her own cooking, despite her not cooking it to begin with.

"Th..This can't be happening!" yelled Ukyo rushing over to her counter and whipping up another Okonomiyaki and taking a bite, "IT CAN'T BE!" she said collapsing on the floor.

Later on, Ranma and Akane were walking back to their house. Ranma's stomach was making its hunger known by making large growls. When they got to the front door of their house, they found Nabiki still in her school uniform handing a man in a brown suit a large bag.

"Nabiki, who was that?" asked Akane walking up to her as the man left.

"Just a man from a charity site, I decided to donate half of my money to charity," said Nabiki walking back into the house.

"Cha.." started Ranma looking at Akane.

"Charity!!!" finished Akane looking at Ranma.

At the dinner table...

"Are you feeling ok Nabiki?" asked Akane as Kasumi gave her some more rice.

"Never felt better," replied Nabiki finishing her rice.

"But to give to charity," said Ranma as Genma attempted to snatch his Pickle, "Oh you want this pops? Here you go." Ranma handed pops his pickles and continued to eat his rice. Everyone else just stared at Ranma.

"What?" asked Ranma finally getting tired of being stared at.

"Ummm, are YOU feeling ok?" asked Nabiki.

"Why do you ask?" asked Ranma confused.

"It's just you gave your pops your pickles without complaining," finished Akane.

"He's my pops, I have to take care of him in his old age," said Ranma causing everyone to slam into the table. A moment latter Genma took off and came back with a bucket of water and splashed Ranma.

"WHAT DID YOU DO THAT FOR!?!" yelled Ranma-chan getting up, "And give me my pickles!"

"Thank Goodness," said Akane, "He's back to normal."

"What do you mean by that?" asked Ranma-chan just as Ryoga walked in with a bucket and towels.

"Ah, Nice to see you Ryoga," said Akane as Ryoga sat down next to Ranma.

"Just got back from a trip to the mountains," said Ryoga looking at Ranma who was giving him a funny look, "What is it Ranma?"

Ranma grabbed Ryoga's hand and gave puppy eyes to him, "Ryoga, will you go on a date with me?"

The entire room soon filled with screams as Genma rush to pour hot water on Ranma, "Would you cut that out pop!"

"You Pervert Ranma!" yelled Ryoga punching Ranma away from him.

"What? What did I do?" asked Ranma all confused.

"Excuses me," came Kuno's voice from the front door, "May I please come in?"

"Upperclassman Kuno?" asked Akane as Kasumi got up and let Kuno in.

"What do you want?" asked Ranma as Kuno walked over to Akane.

"Miss Tendo Akane," he started, "I must apologize for chasing you all the time, acting like you were my girl. I hope you will have it in your heart to forgive me."

Akane's face was frozen with two little dots for eyes, one dot for a nose, and a small line for a mouth. Kuno than walked over to Ranma, "And you Saotome Ranma, I must apologizing for trying to beat you up all the time, and for chasing your girl form too."

Ranma's face soon joined Akane's face in the frozen look while everyone else stared at Kuno, "Say Kuno Baby, what's gotten into you?" asked Nabiki.

"I think someone or something has switched on my brain," replied Kuno, "as stupid as that may sound."

"That would explain it though," said Nabiki.

Over at Tommy's House

"Good thing I skipped today," said Tommy laying on his bed, "I heard allot of strange stuff is happening again."

Soon a knock came at the door which caused Tommy to get excited. He rushed downstairs and open the door to reveal five figures dressed similar to way he was.

"Great to see you guys!" said Tommy letting them in.

"Likewise Dude," said Billy just as a loud scream could be heard followed by Happosai slamming into the room like a meteor.

"What are you doing to my house, FREAK!" yelled Tommy rushing over to punch Happosai.

"Just using it for a soft landing," said Happosai laughing and running out the door with Tommy chasing him.

"Any clue what that was?" asked Josh.

"Nope, lets chill out though, that plane ride was boring," replied Steve.

"PARTY!" yelled Billy as they started to tear up Tommy's house.

Over at Rose's house

"You sure you can't remember where she went?" asked Sonic standing behind Emily's chair.

"I'm positive," said Emily, "I have a photographic memory, not a autographic memory!"

Sonic gave a strange look, "Why do I get the feeling she knows and is not telling me."

"And where have you been?" asked Emily.

"Just relaxing at the school waiting for any trouble that could be related to the shards," said Sonic.

"Why don't I believe him," thought Emily just as Rose walked into the house.

"There you are," said Sonic running up, "Where have you been?"

"It's a secret," said Rose, "Now if you don't mind, I would like to resume practicing."

"At nine o'clock at night?" replied Sonic.

"I plan to practice till midnight," said Rose walking to the dojo.

That Morning

"What's taking so long," thought Sonic tapping his foot outside the front door, "He knows I don't want Rose to find out."

Suddenly a hot spring turtle with a book on it's shell came flying past Sonic where it looped around and stopped in front of him dropping off the book. It gave a small "Mii" before it took off again.

"Figures he would use a turtle delivery," thought Sonic sliding the book into his robe.

"What were you doing outside," asked Rose who spotted Sonic come in the front door from the bathroom door. She had just taken a bath and only had a towel on.

"Just grabbing the morning paper," said Sonic walking to the kitchen.

Rose shrugged and went into her room before she gave it some more thought, "Doesn't he usually materialize the paper in the kitchen?"

Sonic sat down at the table and took a drink of tea he made, "Lets see what the paper says," he thought materializing the paper in front of him. "Hmmm, they are reporting the strange events at Furinkan," thought Sonic.

"Anything interesting in the paper," said Rose walking past Sonic and sitting down.

Sonic quickly flipped the page of the paper hopping Rose didn't see the headline, "Nope, just boring Nerima," he replied.

Back at Furinkan High School

"On the count of three," said Ranma standing by his locker, "One, Two, Three!"

Akane and Ranma both opened their lockers at the same time. They took a peek in to find their normal pair of shoes inside. Feeling more relaxed they gave a sigh, put their shoes on, and went to class.

Meanwhile Billy and Josh with Steve, Travis, and James following them went to the admin office to register their transfer to Furinkan.

"I don't see what Tommy was so concerned about," said Billy after Josh and him gave their papers to the lady, "This place seems ok."

On The roof on the Gym, Sonic was laying on his stomach in an US Army camouflage outfit including makeup. He had a Type IV phaser with a transporter modification and a sniper sensor panel allowing him to see through the buildings.

"Ah there they are," he said as he spotted Billy, "Tommy's band friends will prove very useful in this next curse."

Sonic took aim at James's Trumpet case he was carrying and fired a phaser pulse. The pulse transported through he walls and materialized just outside James's case where it smashed into it. James looked at his case thinking he just felt something smash into it, but shrugged it off.

After the lady came back and informed them it would take a week to process their papers, they turned back to go home.

"Say guys, want to set up just outside the school and practice?" asked Bill.

"Sure," replied the rest as they went to set up.

In Ranma's class, Hinako was busy writing down some stuff on the board when Tommy's band began to play. Most of the class covered their ears in discuss and went to the window to see what was going on. After several minutes of students yelling out the window for them to shut up, Hinako jumped out and landed by the band.

"You must be delinquents," said Hinako, "Disrupting class is a bad thing!"

The Band didn't even notice Hinako as they were playing to their hearts contents which pissed Hinako off even more. After one more minute of being ignore, she pulled out a coin and began to absorb the band's Ki.

As the band collapsed from the lack of Ki in their body, Hinako noticed her body starting to shrink. Before she could do anything her body had reduced to a one year old baby needing a serious diaper change.

"What happen to the teacher?" asked several of the class mates as Ranma jumped down and picked her up.

"Akane!" yelled Ranma, "Do you know how to change diapers?"

Akane nodded as she ran to the nurse's office followed by Ranma carrying a very upset Hinako.

Later during lunch, Ranma and Akane were in their class chowing down on some lunch and talking about Miss Hinako. Since she was unable to return to her normal self, the class was left without an home room instructor for the rest of the day.

"Do you suppose they are going to bring in a substitute?" asked Akane taking a bite out of her lunch.

"Knowing The Principle, he probably will try to find a teacher who is even more strict than Ms. Hinako," replied Ranma finishing his lunch, "Great, I'm still hungry."

"Honestly," said Akane, "You have a bottomless pit for a stomach."

Suddenly several loud bangs were heard in the school. Ranma and Akane looked at the nearby wall hopping it was not who they thought it was. Soon the wall was smashed down and Shampoo with some pork buns showed up, "Ni Hao!"

"Yo Shampoo," said Ranma, "Still don't know how to use a door?"

"Door to slow," said Shampoo, "Me make delivery you ordered Ranma!"

"Delivery?" asked Akane, "He didn't order anything."

"Not True, Shampoo got call from Ranma!" said Shampoo in defense.

"And I'm telling you he didn't!" yelled Akane.

As the two started to yell at each other, a crack formed on the ceiling above Shampoo and was growing in size. Twelve Seconds later the crack burst and an "Acme" anvil fell on her head breaking into pieces and KOing her. Soon everyone was around her as Ranma picked her up trying to wake her.

"Oy, Shampoo," said Ranma as he sat her down in the chair.

"I think she's coming too," said Akane.

Shampoo moaned for a moment as she opened her eyes, "What happen to Shampoo?" she asked.

"Looks like your bust on the wall caused an anvil to fall from the ceiling," said Akane pointing to the hole in the ceiling.

"What Anvil doing up there anyway?" asked Shampoo standing up and brushing the dust of her clothing.

"This is Furinkan High School," replied Ranma.

"Aieeya, Shampoo have something very important to tell you Ranma," said Shampoo tapping her palm with her fist.

"Oh?" said Ranma blinking.

"Shampoo want to tell you that she thinks you will be much happier with Akane as your wife. So Shampoo will no longer try to make you her husband," said Shampoo pointing her index finger up.

These words was just enough to cause Akane and Ranma to fall to the floor while the rest of the boys in the room instantly rushed up to Shampoo asking her to be their girlfriend. After Ranma and Akane got up, Shampoo spoke up.

"Shampoo is now going to marry Moouse, the one man who truly loves Shampoo," finished Shampoo.

"WHAT BROUGHT THIS UP?" yelled Ranma and Akane at the same time making them look at each other briefly.

"Don't know," said Shampoo turning around, "Bye!"

"Did we miss something?" asked Akane.

"How should I know?" replied Ranma.

At the Cat Cafe...

"Grandmother, I'm home," said Shampoo walking in with a smile on her face.

"You seem happy Shampoo, did something nice happen?" asked Colonge.

"Nothing particular," said Shampoo, "Where Moouse?"

"QUACK!!!" quacked Moouse in his duck form. He was leashed up to a poll and was trying to get free so he could see Shampoo.

"Poor Moouse," said Shampoo running up and letting him go. She soon had him snuggled in her arms, "Woa Ie Ne" she said in delight.

"Shampoo," started Colonge noticing the strange behavior, "are you feeling alright?"

"Shampoo feel great," said Shampoo rubbing her head against Moouse who seemed to be in shock.

"You shouldn't play with Moouse's feelings like that," said Colonge.

"I'm not playing," said Shampoo in defense.

Colonge eyed Shampoo for a moment before she spoke again, "Tend to the shop Shampoo, I have some errans to do."

"OK Grandmother," said Shampoo.

Back at Furinkan High School

Colonge hopped through the front gate and took a look around. She found a group of students running away from a Sub that was trying to take a bite out of them. On the clock tower, a couple were sitting on the wall as if gravity did a 90 degree turn. By the front door, she found Kuno sword fighting his shadow with a few girls watching.

"What on Earth is going on?" she asked as she hopped down the walk way to the front door. She didn't get very far when a few vines spat out of the bushes and attempted to whack her. She easily dodged and landed on a tree branch. She quickly looked around just in time to see a water fountain break and send a burst of water towards her. She evaded the water and landed back on the path. She turned around to find a bird that had been sitting on the branch turn into a duck.

"Alright, Show yourself Sonic!" yelled Colonge pointing her stick at nearby tree.

"Now how the hell did you know it was me?" asked Sonic jumping down off the tree and trying to smash a cursed cream pie in Colonge's face.

"Like you have to asked," said Colonge dodging again.

"Quit Jumping around," said Sonic pointing his right index finger at her, "Otherwise I can't turn you into a duck!"

"Why a Duck of all things," said Colonge getting ready to bounce at the sight of him shooting his curse.

"I like to give people a taste of other people's misfortunes that they take advantage of," said Sonic raising up his left hand as if he was splashing water.

Suddenly the ground beneath Colonge started to break apart causing her to jump to avoid falling into a pit. As she did this Sonic took the opportunity of blasting a ki blast from his right index finger into Colonge. To Sonic's surprise, the blast reflected off of Colonge and smashed into Gosunkugi turning him into a duck.

"Hey, What gives?" asked Sonic.

"I figured this Curse Deflection Necklace I bought a while back would come in handy," said Colonge pointing to a silver necklace around her neck.

"Well than," said Sonic opening his hands and materialized what looked like Happo Fire bursts in them, "How about I fight dirty!"

With that Sonic jumped up into the air and threw the bombs, "Happo Mold Burst!"

"You can't be serious," said Colonge Dodging the blast, "Even Happy can't hit me with those!"

"Don't compare me to him!" yelled Sonic throwing dozens of Happo mold bursts at Colonge.

After six minutes of battling, the entire front lawn of the school was covered in mold. Colonge was on her stick sitting on a very tiny spot that hadn't been moled yet while Sonic hovered in the air breathing hard.

"Give up boy?" said Colonge eyeing Sonic.

"Mind if I try the Happo Mold Monster First?" asked Sonic pointing to the mold in front of her. Soon the mold busted up and took a form of a shapeless pile of mold with eyes and a mouth. It howled at Colonge as it charged for an attack.

"Cat Cafe Mold Cleaning," yelled Colonge pulling out a spray of anti-fungus and spraying the monster till he was no more.

"Ahhh, he didn't even last 3 seconds," said Sonic.

"Now, stop fooling around and end these curses," said Colonge.

"Sorry, I can't," replied Sonic giving a 'I don't know' look, "I made a contract and I have to follow through with it."

"A contract with who?" asked Colonge.

"Wouldn't you be more interested in knowing Shampoo is madly in love with Moouse and would be willing to go all the way within a few minutes?" asked Sonic pointing his thumb back towards the Cat Cafe.

"WHAT!?!" yelled Colonge rushing off towards the Cat Cafe.

"Of course, Moouse isn't that type of guy to take advantage of the one he loves," said Sonic rubbing his hands together, "All right, time for fungus cleaning!"

Just outside the Cat Cafe

"Shampoo, I don't think we are ready to go that far yet!" screamed Moouse as Colonge came by the Corner.

"But Shampoo Love Moouse," said Shampoo as Moouse gave a scream.

As colonge entered the cafe, she heard a splash of water. Fearing Shampoo turned Moouse into a duck so she could have her way, she bursted out, "Shampoo WAIT!"

Moouse and Shampoo in her cat form stared blankly at Colonge as if she had totally lost it, "What is it?"

Colonge took a moment to sigh before she went back to the register, "Nothing, my mistake."

Back with Sonic

"Those Anti-Fungi Spray Cans with the Poison Ivy Curse weren't bad," said Sonic reading through the book he got earlier that day. He was sitting in the tree reading as cans of anti-fungus hovered around the school grounds removing fungus and causing all the students to start itching themselves to death.

"What else is in here," thought Sonic just before his watch beeped, "Ooops, time to set up the end of the day surprise!"

In The Locker rooms, Ranma and Akane were walking over to there shoes. "Any idea how long Ms. Hinako is going to stay like that?" asked Akane.

"No Idea, but at least we won't have to worry about her sucking our battle aura up for a while," said Ranma opening his shoe locker and jumping back in shock.

"What is it Ranma?" asked Akane looking into the locker and jumping back in fear too, "Ha..Happo Fire Burst!?" she yelled.

Just about this time most of the students had opened their lockers and pulled out the cherry bomb looking thing and wondering what it was. Akane and Ranma grabbed each other in a tight hug as they watch the whisk hit the ball.

Outside in a tree, Sonic grinned as a small blast was heard shaking everything in a ten kilometer radius. "Ouch," laughed Sonic as he opened his eyes from the flinch to find every student wearing nothing but a bra and panty. Sonic grabed his mouth just to keep himself from laughing the entire school apart as the students looked at each other and started to run around crazy.

It didn't take Happosai long to show up and molest the girls. He swooshed from one side of the school to another yelling his usual "Sweeto" as he jumped to girl to girl and avoiding all the boys. He didn't even stop by the boy's locker room to pick up the undergarments that had been discarded by the boys, though that was to be expected if anyone knew Happosai well enough.

"Hmmm," thought Sonic picking up a small pamphlet titled "Happo Fire Burst". "I should have realized there was a side affect to having too many bursts explode at once within a given area," he said grinning, "Oh well."

Back at the Tendos

"We're Home..." called Akane, Nabiki, and Ranma all worn out falling into the door. After a minute of no answer, Akane got up.

"Kasumi?" Akane called.

"Welcome Home Akane," yelled Soun, "Kasumi isn't home right now."

"Where did she go?" asked Nabiki as they walked into the main room to see Genma in his Panda form swiping one of Soun's game pieces while he wasn't looking.

"Not sure, but she said it was urgent," said Soun noticing something was wrong with the game board.

"So what do we have for supper," asked Ranma just as a chill came over him.

"I'll cook for everyone tonight!" said Akane suddenly getting loads of energy and a cheerful attitude.

"And I thought today couldn't get any worse," said Nabiki falling down.

At Rose's Dojo...

"Sweet!" said Happosai peaking through the window, "Emeral sure looks great in that getup."

"Pardon me," said a voice behind Happosai. Happosai turned around to see hell itself burning in Sonic's eyes as he swung a 9 iron and sent Happosai to the Appellation Mountains.

"Damn Pervert," said Sonic throwing his 9 iron in a red barrel marked "Pervert Hazard" and lighting it on fire, "How goes the training dear?"

Rose walked out with wiping her face with a towel, "So far so good, I have to admit I haven't had such a workout in a long time."

"I always said working out brings out the best in you," said Sonic.

Rose grinned and taped Sonic on the nose, "Flattery will get you no where. I'm going to take a bath and turn in early."

"Ok Rose," said Sonic rubbing his nose, "At least she hasn't noticed anything going on at the school yet."

That Morning at the school, all the students brought a spare pair of school shoes with them avoiding their shoe lockers all together. Ranma's class still didn't have a home room teacher and no one in the class knew what surprise the Principle had up his sleeve. Sonic was inside the clock trying out a new curse using MM's book when the tardy bell rang and the Principle finally announced to the class his big surprise.

"Since Miss Hinako is Sick, Me be bringing new substitute teacher!" said The Principle, "Let me introduce you to new substitute, Tendo Kasumi!"

Ranma and Akane nearly died from the lack of heart beats as Kasumi walked in. The expression on their face were so priceless that Sonic took time from his cursing to whoosh by and take some pictures before anyone could notice.

"Good Morning Everyone," said Kasumi bowing, "I'm Tendo Kasumi, your new substitute teacher, please to meet you."

"Wh...What’s SHE doing here?" whispered Ranma.

"How should I know?" asked Akane.

"I should sell these to Nabiki later," said Sonic sitting on the tree branch right outside the class Window. He looked at the photos he took one more before he pocketed them and teleported back to the clock. "Alright, this age jumping time curse should be hilarious," said Sonic pulling out a fire torch and torching one of the gears of the clock, "Not to mention there is going to be an added bonus seeing Kasumi freak."

"Now what else must I do for this," asked Sonic picking up the book. A moment later he picked up a Mallet and placed his thumb on another gear, "I get the feeling this isn't necessary, but..." With that Sonic slammed his thumb with the mallet.

"YEEEOOOOW!" he yelled just as the gears glowed and begun to turn. "I guess it was necessary than," thought Sonic looking at his thumb before he glanced at the next page witch made him angry, "WHAT!!! I could have simply used Standard Car Jumper Cables to jump start the curse instead of using a Mallet/Thumb Technique!!!"

Back With MM...The guy we've been ignoring for a while

"I'm technically not a guy," said MM in a little 8 year old girl form looking at his mirror. He was watching Sonic's progress and had a bag of popcorn to his left and a super sized drink to his right.

"Why did you have to make Sonic do all this?" asked Nadeshiko sitting in a chair nearby with her arms crossed.

"Make him? He ASKED to do it," replied MM.

"But he got it from YOU!" snatched back Nadeshiko.

MM stuck out her tongue before going back to the screen, "I must have forgot to add the third way to jump start the curse in the sub notes. You can also start it up by winding the clock with a grandfather clock winder. Better make a note to add that to the next edition."

"By The way," said Nadeshiko picking up a package, "I forgot where you wanted me to mail this package to."

"I wanted you to send it to Rose, but make sure Sonic doesn't see it," replied MM.

"What's in here anyways, I can't see through it even with gamma rays," said Nadeshiko looking at the package.

"That's for me to know, and you to find out someday," grinned MM.

Back at Furinkan...

"What's your sister doing teaching our home class Akane?" asked Ukyo during break. A group of students including Akane's friends were gathered around Akane asking questions to why Kasumi was there instructor. Kasumi was sitting down at the front desk reading a book with her usual tranquil smile.

"How should I know?" asked Akane, "I didn't even know Kasumi had the qualifications to be one."

"Well she does read all the time Akane," said Ranma, "Doctor Tofu's collection of books is one great source to learn after all."

"Maybe Kasumi shouldn't be your only worry," said Nabiki who showed up behind Ranma.

"What do you mean?" said Ranma.

"Alot of students, including my self have noticed some...interesting changes going on as you walk through the school. It seems your body changes age and clothing as if you are walking through different parts of your life as you navigate the school, and some people even change into different people as they pass through areas" said Nabiki poking her thumb at the door.

"Lets see about that," said Ranma walking out the door to find himself as a five year old boy standing next to Ukyo who had also shrunk to five years of age.

"What in blazes is going on?" asked Ranma running down the hall and turning the corner to find himself to be about in his 20's with a white "Anything Goes Martial Arts" outfit on. He turned around and watched Akane move through an invisible barrier changing her into her 20s in a normal house wife outfit with a buldge on her stomach.

"Wha...What is this?" asked Akane noticing the buldge in her stomach.

"Looks like your pregnant Akane," said Ukyo walking through the barrier changing into a chief outfit, "I wonder with who's child?"

Akane and Ranma blushed at that question and quickly shot themselves to another portion of the hall to find them selves at 12 years old. As they were looking around trying to figure things out, Kasumi walked out of the class room. The strange thing was she wasn't changing her appearance as she did this. The gang quickly ran up to Kasumi changing their appearance three more times before they caught up with her.

"Hey Kasumi, haven't you noticed people are changing age?" asked Akane as an 80 year old woman.

"Oh My, No I didn't, I was too busy read this book," said Kasumi pointing to a book title "Temporal Mechanics in Theory"

"Where did you get that?" asked a three year old Ukyo sucking her thumb.

"Doctor Tofu," said Kasumi with a smile.

"Could that be what is keeping her from changing?" thought Sonic looking through one of the hall way windows. He looked at the book some more before he rubbed his chin to think of something else that would freak out Kasumi before inspiration hit. "I bet she would freak if she was turned into an Akane!" said Sonic as he started to concentrate a blue energy ball in his palm.

He waited till Kasumi had turned down the next hall where he slipped through the window and took a pictures stance, "One Strike Coming Up!" he said throwing the ball at Kasumi who suddenly dropped her book and bent down to the pick it up.

The ball whooshed over her and slammed into a passing female student who was instantly morphed into Akane. After noticing her change she was about to scream when she realized she was no longer changing age and decided it was a good thing, at least till she tried cooking anything.

"Talk about Luck," said Sonic, "I'll guess I'll have to try again at Lunch."

Rose's Dojo...

"Rose, package for you," said Kia walking into the Dojo.

"Package for me?" asked Rose putting down her Palms and walking over to Kia taking the package, "Who would send me a package?"

"Didn't say who it was from," said Kia, "But there is some instructions on it to open it in private."

"I guess its a good time for a break than," said Rose walking towards the door, "Oh, has Emily come back from spying on Mariko?"

"Nope, not yet," replied Kia, "Wish you had let me do it."

"You would stand out to much," replied Rose.

Seishun Academy

"She's good," said Emily taking another bite out of her Hamburger. She was sitting in the Gym watching Mariko with a few other boys. The Cheerleading club seemed to enjoy having an audience which made it easier for Emily to do her job.

Mariko was practicing her batons taking out targets all around the Gym, She would start out with one baton in her hand and suddenly make more out of thin air as she twirled hers, than as she released them on a target, she would throw two in opposite directions. They would do a curve and intercept at the target like an X cutting it in half.

"Something’s fishy here," thought Emily as she put her hand in her food bag pulling out another sandwich, "YUCK, They gave me a Fish'O Let! No wonder something smelled Fishy!"

Lunch Time at Furinkan, you know what that means!

"Give Me That Curly Bread!" yelled a six year old girl tackling a five year old boy like a football player.

"Hands Off!" yelled a boy grabbing the girl by her pigtail.

"At least now the lunch line now looks like a bunch of five year olds," said a child Akane walking with Ranma from the Lunch Line.

"At least I'm still good at getting lunch at this age too," grinned Ranma.

"There you two are," said Kasumi holding a bag with some lunch, "I figured we could each Lunch together.

"Sure, why not," said Akane now in her thirties, "How about we eat on the roof?"

"Sounds fine to me," said Ranma running up the stairs.

"Shall we go Akane?" asked Kasumi.

"Yea," replied Akane as they walked up the stairs.

"Alright Kasumi," thought Sonic standing near the stairs that came to the roof, "Lets see you avoid me this time!"

Ranma soon sprang from the door back to his normal age and wait for Akane and Kasumi to come up with the blanket. They laid it down on the ground where they sat down and started to eat. Sonic grinned as he pointed his right index finger at Kasumi and fired a blast towards here.

"Would you like some tea?" asked Kasumi bending down to get some material in the basket. The blast Sonic sent whooshed by getting Ranma and Akane's attention while Kasumi bent back up, "Something the matter?"

"Damnit," thought Sonic pointing to the sky.

"Ranma, would you set this up please," asked Kasumi pulling out a beach umbrella out of no where. Ranma, not sure where she got it, sat it up and deployed it just as a blast of water fell from the sky and hit the umbrella.

"Oh my, is it raining?" asked Kasumi as water dripped from the umbrella that kept them dry.

"Doesn't look like it," said Akane looking around.

"What is WITH HER?" thought Sonic getting more desperate, "This requires more research!"

Rose's House

"I'm home," said Sonic walking through the door.

"Welcome back," yelled Emily as she tackled her brother for THE remote.

"You two aren't fighting over the remote again are you?" asked Sonic not even bothering to look into the room.

"Ummm, No," yelled Emily and Jeremy before resuming a saber fight.

Sonic walked to his room and opened the door to find no one inside. He looked down the hall and called for Kia, "Hey Kia, do you know where Rose is? She wasn't in the dojo."

Kia's head popped out of the laundry room, "She went for a jog on Venus to work on her stamina," she replied.

Sonic grinned, "Thanks"

Closing the door Sonic pulled out his book and went to the page he book marked, "Escher". He began to read the page making sure he didn't miss any detail. "This time Kasumi will not escape," he chuckled to himself just when he heard the front door open and Rose's voice.

"I'm back!" she called.

Sonic quickly stashed the book in one of his pockets and walked out, "Back from Venus Rose?"

"Yep," said Rose stretching, "I figured jobbing in 700 Kelvin with extreme air pressure would do me some good."

"Too bad the battle isn't on Venus," smiled Sonic, "you would win instantly."

"On account of being the only one to survive in that atmosphere?" grinned Rose, "Hey, would you Jedi act your age and stop getting involved with their fight!"

Sonic turned to see Emily and Jeremy still duking it out with Remote Control Light Sabre's but with the aid of four more Jedi. The Jedi stopped what they were doing when Rose yelled at them and bowed there heads, "Sorry."

Rose opened the door, "Now OUT!" she said.

The Jedi walked out in a sour mood as if they were kids being torn away from the most fun game in the universe. Rose shut the door and glared at Emily and Jeremy who gave guilty looks.

"I leave for a short while and you two start up!" said Rose, "Kia, I thought I told you to watch these two!"

"What?" said Kia popping her head out of the washroom, "I've been too occupied doing the last three weeks of laundry to notice them."

At The Tendos

"How did your first day of teaching go Kasumi?" asked Soun reading the paper.

"It was very interesting and fun," said Kasumi sitting down by the table and drinking some tea.

"For her anyways," said Akane sitting down exhausted, "Nothing happened to her the entire time she was at the school."

"I wonder if that’s why the principle choose her for our substitute," said Ranma sitting by Akane.

"Come to think of it," replied Nabiki, "I didn't see the principle after he announced your new instructor. I wonder where we is."

In one of the Principle's private rooms

"I can't take this anymore," said the Principle who appeared a bit younger. He kept getting blasted around the room although there was nothing visible that was blasting him. "This is just like when I tried to escape Hawaii," he yelled receiving another blast.

Sonic appeared outside the door, "Ooops, I guess he got trapped in the time frame when he was bombarded by the Hawaiians," he thought snapping his fingers restoring Time to normal around the school.

Thursday at Furinkan High

"What do you suppose we're going to run into today," asked Akane as she and Ranma entered the front of the school.

"Don't know, perhaps a maze?" replied Ranma as they walked into the building.

"You and your big mouth," said Akane as they looked what was before them. The entire school had been turned some sort of Escher. Upside down stairs were every where, doors in the ceiling, path ways on the walls, and students trying to find their way to class in this new design.

The Principle was busy trying to find his office where he left his clippers as Ranma and Akane past, "Me Clip your head Saotome Ranma if I only had me clippers."

"Doing Remolding?" asked Ranma ignoring the comment.

"Mes a don't know what is going on!" said the Principle somehow loosing gravity and falling onto the stairs on the ceiling.

An hour later no student had gotten any closer to their classrooms as they had when they started. In fact, some students found themselves coming out of a stair way in the front yard of the school and having to start over in the navigation.

"Ranma," said Akane in a whining voice as they walked down a flight of upside down stairs, "Lets rest, I'm getting Tired."

"We've at least walk ten kilometers," said Ranma, "I wonder how much further we have to go?"

"Say, isn't that the front door," said Akane pointing to a door.

"Don't say it," said Ranma with null eyes, "We've been walking in circles."

"Aiya, there you two are," said Kasumi coming out of a door in the floor, "I've been helping students find their way to class, you two are the only ones left."

"You mean you can navigate this?" replied Akane in shock.

"It's not that difficult," said Kasumi smiling.

"At least if you are Ryoga," said Ranma, "I bet he is having a cinch in this."

Somewhere...Out there...

"WHERE AM I!?!" yelled Ryoga standing upside down on a stair case in the clouds kilometers above the ground.

Any who...

Kasumi lead Ranma and Akane through a series of tunnels, stairs, and invisible doors before they reached their classroom. She let them in before she started class, "Since today was a tad difficult for some of you to make it here on time, I'll excuses your tardiness," she said.

The class sighed in relief as Kasumi gave a smile, "Since the other instructors won't be able to make it to class, I'll have to take over their subjects. And If I recall, you have a math test today." The class moaned as Kasumi started to pass out test papers.

"HOW DID SHE DO IT!?!" yelled Sonic on the roof of the school, he started to rip out some of his hair which re-grew after a moment, "She's sees through every trick in the book!"

Later that day Kasumi excused her self from class to go to the lunch store and buy everyone some lunch. There wasn't any line at the lunch line since the only person who how found it was Kasumi and the lunch lady her self. After packing up what the class order, Kasumi headed back to class.

Sonic was hiding under one of the stairs when Kasumi walked over head, "Now to knock her in the Spring of Drown Dove," he said.

As soon as Kasumi was on the stairs right above the pit, Sonic blasted the stairs with a Ki blast and sent Kasumi tumbling down. The grin on Sonic's face was so spectacular, that DS would think he had an evil twin instead of a good twin. But Sonic's expression soon went to horror when Ranma showed up and caught Kasumi and the food.

"WHERE DID HE COME FROM?" thought Sonic.

"Thanks Ranma," said Kasumi.

"Your Welcome I guess," said Ranma, "Say, how did I get here anyways?"

Sonic smashed his head on the ground, "This Sucks," he thought.

Friday...

Sonic was getting desperate now to hit Kasumi with a curse. He had even resorted to using some of Gosunkugi Hikaru's techniques including the paper doll tricks. But not a single curse happen to Kasumi and Sonic was running out of ideas.

He finally had some glimmer of joy when he found a page related to Kasumi in the book, "Having Trouble Cursing Kasumi? Is she avoiding all of your curses? Well this is the curse for you, all you have to do..." read Sonic turning the page, "WHAT, THE PAGE IS MISSING!"

Sonic slammed the book shut, "This really does suck, I know MM could curse Kasumi, but why can't I!" he said to himself.

"Because your a novice," said MM surprising Sonic and causing him to jump into orbit with the Hubble space telescope.

The Scientists we all know and love

"Hey! You won't believe this, but we got another Alien on the telescope!" said one of the Scientists.

"Let me see," said another as they all crowded over the screen to find Sonic's face smashed against the lens. It appeared he was mumbling to himself before he pushed himself off the lens and returned to Japan.

"Why does Japan get all these weird things?" asked another Scientist.

"Don't know, but maybe that's a GOOD THING," said the first.

Sonic has now landed

"Welcome back," said MM as Sonic pulled himself out of the pothole he made.

"Thanks," said Sonic, "So why can you curse Kasumi again?"

"Because I'm a pro," said MM taking Sonic inside and pointing at Kasumi, "Watch and Learn."

MM charged a small ki blast and shot Kasumi which hit on the first try. At first it didn't look like the curse did anything until Sonic noticed Whiskers pop out of Kasumi's face. Soon the entire class was laughing and Kasumi ran out to the lady's room.

"Show off," said Sonic.

"See, all you had to do was target the atoms that MAKE UP Kasumi," said MM vanishing.

"So that's what’s on the missing page," said Sonic opening the book to find the missing page there, "Now that's Overkill MM!"

That Night at the Tendos

"How are you feeling Kasumi," asked Akane sitting down at the table.

"Much Better," said Kasumi with her face back to normal, "Just a bit embarrased, that's all."

"No need to be embarrassed," said Ranma, "Everyone has had something happen to them at that school in the past week. I'm just surprised that things went back to normal after that."

"I know, Ms. Hinako suddenly got better after Kasumi left after lunch," replied Akane.

"Well I have no complaints," said Nabiki looking at some pictures that had came in the mail.

Saturday...

"Yaaa!" yelled Rose in a pink cheerleading outfit slashing a baton missing the girl she was sparing with. Her opponent was in a yellow leotard and had brown hair.

"Come on, you can do better than that," replied the girl going in with some Palm Palms.

Rose grinned and twirled her baton, "Hurricane baton!" she said as the room filled with winds over 300 km/h. The girl was thrown into a spin as she circled the eye of the storm before landing on the wall and coming in for a bounce.

"Thunder Palms!" she said delivering an electrifying punch to Rose who was pushed back a bit but than gave another smile.

"Omni Palms!" grinned Rose smashing the girl with a punch that was made of both ice and fire at the same time.

The girl slammed into a wall before she turned into blue energy and morphed into Sonic in his red outfit rubbing his cheek, "We're just sparing, you didn't have to HIT so hard," he said.

"Sorry," said Rose, "My Body for some reason wants to punish you."

"But I haven't even done anything," said Sonic hiding his fear, "She's catching on, good thing I decided to leave them alone today."

"How's the practice going you two?" asked Kia walking in with some lunch.

"Rose is doing great, she just need to remember we are doing friendly sparing, not real battling," said Sonic rubbing his cheek.

"I said I was Sorry," replied Rose giving the innocent look.

Kia placed their lunch on a table that somehow appeared and was about to sit down with them for lunch when a blast shook the entire dojo.

"What was that?" asked Sonic.

"Just Emily and Jeremy fighting over THE remote again," replied Kia.

"Those TWO," yelled Rose walking out of the dojo. Sonic and Kia figured it was best to follow her just to be sure she didn't blow Emily and Jeremy's heads off.

Upon arriving outside, an explosive shell landed near Rose exploding. Kia and Sonic flinched at the sight as the smoke cleared and Rose stood there all black. Looking around, the entire back yard had been turned into a World War II battle field. Several planes flew by dropping bombs on some tanks. Artillery on both side was being shot across the field. On each side of the yard was a base made of sand bags, dirt, and a flag sticking up. one was a white flag which everyone assumed it was Jeremy while the other had a black flag.

"All this over THE remote?" asked Sonic as a plane nearly ran into Rose.

"All Right, THATS ENOUGH!" yelled Rose taking out some batons and knocking every single plane down with boomerang type attacks. Finally she jumped in the air throwing the batons like knifes knocking out each tank leaving her with two batons left which she threw at the mounds. A moment later nuke clouds could be seen all the way from the Tendo's house.

"Why did you have to do that?" asked Jeremy popping out where the black flag had been.

"Shouldn't you be under the white flag?" asked Sonic as Emily popped out of the White flag.

"So we like to switch," replied Emily, "Looks like we won't find out who won."

"Can't you two simply play a video game instead of re-enacting World War II?" asked Rose sighing.

"What fun would that be?" asked Emily.

Tendo Residence

"We're Home," called Akane.

"Welcome back Akane, Ranma," said Kasumi pouring some tea, "How was your day?"

"Uneventful for a change," said Akane as she sat down with Ranma.

"Kind of boring without all those weird things," replied Ranma snatching a potato chip.

"Don't say things like that," said Akane with a mad look, "They just might start happening again."

"Akane, don't you have a volley ball tournament to go to tomorrow?" asked Kasumi.

"Oh yea, that's right," said Akane, "I almost forgot about it with all the problems going on."

"Isn't Emeral going to battle that Mariko girl from Seishun Academy?" asked Ranma.

"Yep," replied Kasumi handing Ranma a post card she got.

"Come see the greatest battle in Cheerleading Martial Arts History! Showdown between Seishun Academy's star Mariko Konjo and Furinkan High's Student-Teacher Emeral Bellosom," read Ranma.

"Ahhh, it really must be an important battle," said Akane pointing to the back of the card, "Look at these spectacular graphics, I'm sure that costs alot of money."

"Yes it does," said Nabiki showing up, "I was paid to have the cards made after all."

"Figures," said Ranma, "By Whom?"

"Emeral," replied Nabiki.

"Isn't she taking this a bit too far?" asked Akane.

"Not at all, you can never have too much money," said Nabiki winking.

"That's not what I meant," replied Akane looking at the graphics of the card. A moment later Akane was squirted with ink from the card.

"Ooops," said Nabiki, "I guess I shouldn't have used that MM Company to print the cards."

"NABIKI!" growled Akane shaking her fist.

Sunday, the Big Fight

"Look at all the people who showed up Ranma," said Akane as they walked into the Gym. All the stands were practically full and people were moving about trying to find a spot to watch the fight. Over to the side, several shops had set up including Ukyo's concession stand and a Cat Cafe concession stand.

"Why does Uk-chan have a concession stand up, isn't she fighting?" asked Ranma walking over to the stand, "Hey Uk-chan!"

"Well if it isn't you two," said Tsubasa popping out of the stand, "Dressing up as a boy again today?"

"I AM A GUY," said Ranma punching Tsubasa on the head, "And why are you here?"

"Ukyo cooked a huge amount of Okonomiyaki before she came over and I'm selling it for her," said Tsubasa, "Want any?"

"Sure, I'll take a seafood," said Ranma getting a look from Akane.

"Well I'll go meet up with Emily and Katarina," said Akane, "Cya after the game!"

"Cya Akane," said Ranma with a mouth full.

Akane ran down the side of the Gym and passed a few more concession stands. If she was paying any attention, she would have noticed the ghost cat running the Curse R Us stand. But Akane rushed by and met up with Emily and Katarina.

"Hey you two," said Akane running up.

"Hey Akane," said Katarina.

"Yo," replied Emily, "You ready for the match?"

"Ready than I'll ever be," said Akane flexing her mussels in her arm.

"That what you think Akane," said Shampoo from behind.

"Well if it isn't the cat girl," said Emily grinning.

"Who you calling cat girl," said Shampoo as Ukyo and Kodachi came beside her.

"Why can't we just have a peaceful competition rather than trying to kill each other before the game?" asked Akane putting her hand on her head.

"Don't mind Shampoo," said Ukyo, "She's just mad the Ghost Cat wouldn't sell her the charm she wanted."

"Ghost cat?" asked Akane, "He's here too?"

"Didn't you notice him as you walked over here?" asked Ukyo pointing to where he was, "He's running the Curse R Us over there."

"Why wouldn't he sell Shampoo what she wanted? He usually does what ever a cute girl asks," asked Katarina.

"And where did you hear that from?" asked Emily wondering how Katarina knew about the ghost cat.

"From our books about Ghosts and Demons in the shrine," replied Katarina.

"He said no can sell items to the players," replied Shampoo a bit angry.

"What were you trying to get," asked Emily with a grin, "An instant win pendent?"

Shampoo turned her cheek, "Non of Emily's Business."

"So where are our cheerleaders?" asked Ukyo.

"Haven't seen them yet," replied Akane.

Over in the changing room, Rose had just put on her pink cheerleading outfit with Furinkan's logo on it. She looked at her self in the mirror and twirled her baton, "How do I look?" she asked.

"Like you have to ask," said Sonic smiling, "You look Beautiful."

"I still wish I didn't have to put Furinkan on the outfit," said Rose twisting to one side to check the back side of her outfit.

"Just be thankful the principle didn't DESIGN the dress," said Sonic.

"I don't even want to THINK of what he would make me wear," said Rose.

"So what is this secret weapon of yours?" asked Sonic.

"What do you mean," replied Rose with a soft grin.

"You can't fool me, I know you have something up your sleve for this match," said Sonic grinning.

"You'll just have to watch and find out with everyone else," said Rose tapping Sonic on the nose.

"You know I hate waiting," said Sonic getting up and opening the door for his wife.

Rose and Sonic walked into the Gym as Mariko came in with her group of cheerleading friends. The crowd had settled down finding seats somehow and had some snacks to snack on. The Tendos, Kalshion and his father, Cologne, Kuno, the principle, Kia, and Jeremy were sitting in the first row of stands that was reserved for contestant Guests. Sonic sat down between Ranma and Jeremy and watched as The volley ball girls took their positions.

"May the best woman win," said Rose grinning as she went to shake Mariko's hand.

"Just don't cry when I beat you," replied Mariko with the same grin.

The two girls went to their side of the court as the referee came up to start the match. Sonic grabbed a handful of popcorn when he suddenly had a strange feeling and begun to eye the crowd on the opposite side of the gym.

Noticing this, Ranma spoke up, "What is it Joe?"

On the other side of the Gym, a young man sitting down eye Sonic eye his side of the gym, Damn, did he notice me already?" thought DS before he felt a strange feeling as well. He began to eye the gym wondering what it was he was feeling as he hadn’t felt this feeling for ages.

Sonic continued to eye around but he became more curious than alert, "For a moment I thought I felt something bad, but now I feel something familiar...I just can't put my finger on it," he replied to Ranma.

"They are about to start," said Kai in a cheerful voice.

"The Cheerleading match between Bellosom Emeral of Furinkan High and Konjo Mariko of Seishun Academy will now commence," said the referee girl.

The two girls wasted no time charging at each other with batons as the girls in the volleyball court started their game. Mariko took the first move sending two baton out that came around like boomerangs to smash at Rose. Rose quickly dodged as the batons made an "X" cut above her missing her hair by a few centimeters.

"Damn she's fast," thought Rose as she twirled her batons and sent them out like wheels.

Mariko smashed both of Rose's batons with her own baton and came at Rose to bash her on the head. Rose again quickly dodged and attempted a fire punch with her palm palms but her attack was deflected by Mariko's baton again and she took a direct hit sending her into the ground.

"Your not even a challenge," said Mariko taking aim at Akane to knock her out.

Rose got out of the ground and grinned, "Oh, but let me use some of the tricks I have up my sleeves," she said.

"Sleeves? What Sleeves?" asked Mariko as she threw the batons at Akane.

"These Sleeves," said Rose as her dress suddenly grew sleeves and she pulled out a card, "SHIELD!"

The card Rose was holding burst out with Energy and engulfed Akane's team producing a powerful shield. The Batons were deflected by the shield and went back to their owner Mariko who was stunned. But Sonic and DS on the other hand had practically lost concessions as their jaws slammed into the ground.

"Joe, you OK?" asked Ranma.

"WHAT IS SHE DOING WITH SAKURA CARDS!?!?!" yelled Sonic as he jumped up.

"SAKURA CARDS?" yelled DS in his mind trying his best not to get Sonic's attention, "SAKURA IS HERE?"

The two looked around till they spotted a woman up in the stands to the side waving her hands. Both of them recognized it to be Sakura with her husband Shaoran at her side. Sakura seemed happy to see Sonic who she was waving at while Shaoran just sat there smiling at Sakura.

"Check Please," said Sonic and DS at the same time in a low voice as they collapsed.

"What's with him?" asked Ranma.

"No Clue," replied Jeremy.

At the All Famous Mirror Room in MM's house...

"WHAT IS MY DAUGHTER DOING HERE!" screamed Nadeshiko causing everything made of glass in the entire room to shatter.

MM pulled out the ear plugs he had in his ears and turned to her, "She asked to come over and see Rose and Sonic," he said in a calm voice.

"She What?" asked Nadeshiko a bit confused.

"She felt the two were having some difficulties and used her 'Summoning' card to try and reach them. She got me instead of course where I explained that they were here in my world. She asked if she could see them for a while and I granted her permission to do so," explained MM, "So as you can see, I kept my word about bringing her over here."

"If You dare put one curse on her..." started Nadeshiko with anger in her eyes.

"I won't touch her," said MM, "Consider it a personal favor to you."

"Thank you," sighed Nadeshiko just as a compartment above her opened up and dropped water on her changing her into a cat.

"I said I wouldn't touch her, not you," grinned MM.

Back at the Gym

Two water boys ran out of the gym having finished splashing Sonic and DS to wake them up. Mariko was still trying to figure out what Rose did and the crowd was cheering for more battling. Over in the volleyball court, Akane's team had 12 points while Shampoo's had 10. It was a close game and anyone could still win.

"So you going to stand there all day Mariko?" gloated Rose.

Mariko smiled, "I was just warming up, now its time to get serious!"

"We'll see about that," replied Rose pulling out another Card, "TIME!"

The Card glowed before the entire area was frozen in Time, Rose grinned as she rushed over to deliver a good licking to Mariko when she saw Mariko's eyes move. Before she could react Mariko smashed Rose into a wall canceling the effects of the Time card.

The entire crowd was stun to how Rose suddenly appeared in the wall smoking from another hit. Mariko was laughing at Rose for trying to use another card while Rose got up wondering how she could not be affected by the Time Card. Mariko swung her baton around a bit before she charged for Rose.

"Wait a minute," said Kalshion, "I think their is a shard in that baton!"

"And you just noticed that now because?" asked Sonic sending the info to Rose telepathically.

"Because up until now, I was too busy eating this devil's chocolate doughnut I got from this guy selling them.

"Devil's Chocolate?" asked Sonic.

"Hehehe," chuckled DS, "Devil Chocolate doughnut that block their ability to sense shards to be precise."

"Figures he wouldn't notice till now," thought Rose dodging Mariko's attack, "Katarina is too busy in her game to notice."

"Running away?" asked Mariko as Rose jumped to the other side of the gym.

"No, just buying some time," yelled Rose transforming Hikari into a baton.

"I didn't know she could do that," said Jeremy.

"Join the club," replied Sonic.

"Lets Do It!" yelled Rose jumping in the air and charging at Mariko.

The Two collided and begun trying to hit each other with their baton causing sparks to fly every where. After a few minutes of trying to smack the other, they jumped away and attempted a special attack.

"Baton Hell!" yelled Mariko twirling her baton which duplicated over a hundred fold and sent a fleet of batons at Rose.

Rose raised one leg up and twirled her baton above her, "Dance of the Wind Dragon" she said as a hurricane force of wind blasted from below her.

Soon the hurricane winds collided with the batons and a struggle for who's attack would break through began. Sonic sat there eating more popcorn while everyone else was at the edges of their seats waiting for the results.

"If only they knew Rose was purposely making it look like a struggle for a close call win," thought Sonic popping another kernel of popcorn in his mouth.

Finally the wind took a shape of a dragon and blasted through Mariko's attack sending her flying into the wall. Rose than jumped into the air and sent her baton at Shampoo's team knocking all three of them off their feats as the winning ball from Akane's team came over and landed on the ground.

"Winner, Emeral Bellosom!" yelled The Referee holding Rose's hand.

The Crowd jumped in cheer as Rose waved her arms around. Sonic walked over and lifted Rose on her shoulder where she continued to parade her win. Kalshion walked over to Mariko who was still knocked out and removed the shard in her baton. Shampoo, Ukyo, and Kodachi got off their feat and looked at Akane's team in discuss.

After a few minutes more of parading, Rose jumped over to the volleyball court between the two teams, "I feel so happy!" she said with enthusiasm, "In Thanks for all of you participating and the fact that I'm in a good mood, I decided I will take all of us to Kyoto for some relaxation!"

Shampoo's team jumped for joy at the sound that they would be going to Kyoto with a chance to get with Ranma alone. It didn't take long for the three of them to realize they were rivals in that department and start tackling each other for who would get Ranma. Akane just sighed and went over to Ranma.

"I Guess this was all you needed to get in a better mood," said Sonic smiling at Rose.

"I guess so," said Rose smiling, "Nothing like a good competition to sooth the nerves."

"And an added Aura Shard," said Kalshion Handing Rose the shard.

"So should we get packing for Kyoto?" asked Sonic.

"Sure!" said Rose.

Chapter 44
The Return of the Doll of Revenge!
Who Keeps Using the Jedi as a basis for this story?

It was a fine day at Kyoto, the sun was up, a nice breeze was blowing, and the shops were making a bundle of the tourists. Over at a hotel on the further side of Kyoto Rose and her group made their way to check in.

"Here we are," said Rose pointing at the hotel with a smile, "The Morning Moon Inn."

"Amazing what you can find on the internet in less than a day," said Sonic, "I'm a bit suspicious though on how it had the exact number of rooms open that we needed."

"Oh your just imagining things," said Rose.

"What about the name of the place," said Sonic Pointing at the name, "Two M's"

"Oh Come on," said Rose walking into the inn, "You don't think MM would use that same trick every time do you?"

"Yes I do," said Sonic as they came to the counter.

"Hello there," said the lady at the counter, "Do you have a reservation?"

"Yes we do, for Bellosom Emeral," said Rose.

"Ahhh Yes," said the Lady looking at the crowd Emeral brought in with her, "We've been expecting you. All I need you to do is sign a few papers and pay."

"Paying before we are checked in?" asked Rose, "Isn't it usually when you check OUT?"

"Yes, but we have to make an exception since you have those three with you," said the Lady pointing at Ranma, Soun and Genma, "They don't have a good reputation since that Octopus scandal."

"Good Point," said Rose pulling out her walled and dumping over fifty pounds of ten thousand yen bills on her.

"Where do you get all your money?" asked Nabiki in shock, "And how did you fit all that in there?"

"I just sold about a few tons of gold before we came here," said Rose, "and it would take you a few years in quantum physics to understand my wallet."

"Who cares, Lets just get to our room!" cheered Genma.

"Ah Yes," said the lady popping her head out of the cash as Rose finished signing the last paper, "Allow me to show you to your rooms."

The Lady showed the group to their super size rooms on the third floor, The Tendos got their own room with Ranma and Genma, Shampoo, Ukyo and Kodachi were placed in a room down the hall. Kia booked up with Emily and Katarina who had a room on the other side of the Tendo's room while Moouse, Kalshion, Kuno and Jeremy where on the opposite end of the hall as Shampoo's room. Rose and Sonic were shown to their room which was on the fourth floor which had a smilar design.

"Wow," said Akane looking around the room, "It's practically like a small apartment."

"And we get to stay here for free," said Nabiki being cheerful about the apparent cost of the room.

"Do you two want to pick out your yukatas now?" asked Kasumi walking in with some Yukatas in her arms.

"Sure," said Akane taking a look at the three Yukatas before she choose the pink one with white crescent moons on it.

"I guess I'll have this one," said Nabiki taking out the black one with yellow circles on it that looked like gold coins.

"Than I'll have this one," said Kasumi taking the light green one with dark green leaves on it.

"Hurry up you three," said Soun, "We are going to be having dinner with everyone in about an hour."

"Ok," said the girls as they went into a room to change.

"They sure seem happy," said Genma finishing placing the chess table up.

"They sure do," replied Soun, "Plus tonight gives Ranma and Akane another Chance!"

"You sure said it Tendo-kun!" replied Genma.

"Would you two knock it off," replied Ranma in a black kimono smashing his pop with his foot.

Outside the front door to the Hotel, Rose and Sonic were standing waiting for the others. Rose had on a black yukata with red roses on it. She had tied up her pink hair into a pony tail and had a indigo ribbon tied on it. Sonic was also in a black yukata but had white roses on it. After a few minutes of waiting, Moouse and Kuno wearing there ordinary clothing came out followed by Kalshion wearing a black yukata with white dragon designs on it.

"Nice design," said Rose to Kalshion as he stepped out.

"Thanks," replied Kalshion as Katarina came out in a pink yukata with white dragon designs.

"Cuuuuteee," said Rose causing Katarina to blush as more of the group showed up.

Shampoo was wearing a solid light blue yukata, Ukyo was wearing a white yukata with red spatula designs on it, Kodachi was wearing her usual black kimoto with red ribbons, and Kia showed up in her usual outfit. It didn't take long afterwards for Ranma, Genma and the Tendos to show up. Only Emily and Jeremy where left and they were running a tad late.

"Those two probobly went fighting each other again," said Sonic looking at his watch.

"I think that’s them," said Akane noticing two people walking up to the door.

When the two figures walked out of the door, everyone did a double take at the sight. Emily was wearing a white yukata with skull outlines while her friend was in a pink yukata with white flower imprints all over it.

"WHY are you DRESSED like that?" asked Rose finally getting her jaw back to her mouth.

"I lost a bet with Tommy and we ended up having to where these," said Emily, "Skulls aren't my style."

"So where's Jeremy and who's your friend?" asked Sonic.

Emily gave a bad look at Sonic for a moment before she pointed at her friend, "She's NOT my friend, I hate being siblings with her to begin with!"

"Siblings? You have another sister?" asked Rose.

"NOOO! This IS Jeremy!" yelled Emily.

"WHAT!?!" yelled the group taking another double take.

"Yea, I fell into a quantum version of 'Spring of Drown Girl', so it takes warm quantum energy to change me back to male," replied Jeremy.

"Hot Quantum Energy?" asked Rose and Sonic at the same time, "You mean there is such a thing as hot and cold Quantum Energy?"

"Yep," replied Jeremy, "I was surprised though that Happosai made the spring that caused this curse since he can't even use Quantum Attacks."

"HAPPOSAI MADE THE SPRING YOU FELL INTO!?!" yelled everyone.

"Yes, he did," replied Jeremy.

"I vote we go find the freak and beat him to a pulp," said Ranma.

In Hawaii

"Almost there," said Happosai running away from a school. A barrage of pineapples was heading his way and he was doing a great job dodging them. That was until he sneezed and a pineapple slammed into his head and exploded.

Back to our Group

"Here we are," said Rose stopping in front of a huge restaurant named 'The Maniac Magician's Restaurant'.

"Umm...Rose?" asked Sonic, "Didn't you notice this place also has a double M initials?"

"Your Worrying too much," said Rose walking them in.

The gang walked in to see rows of all you can eat buffet materials laying about. Rose walked up to the cashier and dumped another wallet load of money on the man who was running it. Soon a waitress showed them to a huge round table where everyone instantly took off to eat.

"This place has great food," said Ranma chowing down a pork bun.

"Yes, the food here is delicious," replied Kasumi, "Thank you for taking us."

"No Problem at all," said Rose smiling.

"So what were those cards you used during the battle?" asked Akane.

"Sakura Cards," replied Rose, "Magical cards made by Sakura herself."

"The same Sakura from before?" asked Ranma snatching a chicken leg from his pop while he wasn't looking.

"Yep, I found her in the phone book," replied Rose.

"What is with the phone books in this world," asked Sonic, "You could have at least told me she was here, I would have liked to say hello too you know."

"FORKS OFF!" yelled Jeremy having collided his fork with his sister for the last pork bun on the table.

"IT'S MINE!" replied Emily struggling to get her fork to the bun.

"That's IT!" said Jeremy taking his fork and forming a light saber out of it.

"Your MINE!" replied Emily doing the same and swinging at her brother.

"Will they ever grow up?" asked Rose sighing, "Didn't they know there is a pile of pork buns three isles down in the buffet?"

Emily and Jeremy battled their way out into the opening in the restaurant passing a group of people in hoods. Those people looked at Emily and Jeremy for a moment before they pulled out Light Sabers and join the fight with Jedi skills.

"Where did THEY come from?" asked Sonic munching on a Meat Bun.

The Jedi spiced up the battle sending empty chairs at each other trying to aid Emily or Jeremy in their fight. The Pork Bun they were fighting for was still sitting on the table and Genma was looking at it. He finally smiled and went for it when a orangish yellow flash by snatching it.

"What happen to the pork bun?" asked Genma.

"Down the Hatch!" yelled Kero throwing the pork bun up and swallowing it whole causing the Emily, Jeremy, and the Jedi to stop what they were doing and look in shock.

"KERO-CHAN!" yelled Sakura from across the room as Yue popped up and grabbed Kero by the wings and dragged him back to the table.

"SAKURA!?!" yelled Rose and Sonic at the same time rushing over to the table.

There they found Sakura and Shaoran sitting together with Yue and Kero. Toya was with them and so was Tomoyo with a camera watching Sakura eat.

"When did you two get here?" asked Sonic shocked to see them.

"We got here just a little bit before you did," replied Shaoran, "We were waiting till you noticed us."

"Say, why do you have Kero and Yue out in the open public?" asked Rose.

"The people here seem to see Kero and Yue as normal," replied Sakura, "or at least as weird as everything else."

"Than what do people consider weird?" asked Rose a bit confused.

"Maybe those dancing trees over there?" asked Toya pointing at the window where some trees were dancing.

"One of the finnest attractions for this place," said Wendy from behind scaring Rose and Sonic.

"AHA! I Knew It!" said Sonic.

"Knew what?" asked Wendy.

"All those double-M things," replied Sonic.

"That? Those were all just coincidence for a change," said Wendy.

"Than why are you here?" asked Sonic.

"I bet she came to congratulate me on my win yesterday," said Rose with a smirk.

"You wish," said Wendy walking over to Kero, "Actually I wanted to challenge Kero to a rematch on who can eat the most food."

"YAY! I'M IN!" yelled Kero.

"Great," said Wendy, "On your mark, get set, GO!"

"Why that Wendy," said Rose in a low voice as blurs were seen going through the buffet sucking up everything insight.

"So where you guys staying?" asked Sonic.

"We are staying at the Morning Moon Hotel," replied Sakura.

"So are we," said Rose getting Happy again.

"What a coincidence," said Sakura smiling, "So we'll see you there tonight at the baths?"

"Sure thing," said Rose smiling as the rest of the group reached their limits on what they could eat, "Cya in a while."

"Bye-Bye," replied Sakura before looking at Kero pigging out.

"Did everyone have a good supper?" asked Rose as the group walked back to Morning Moon.

"Sure did," said Genma patting his belly.

"It was wonderful, thank you again Emeral," said Kasumi in a polite manner.

"Don't mention it," said Rose as Sonic stopped, "What is it?"

"Who's playing that horrible music?" asked Sonic. The group was confused for a moment until they too noticed the music that appeared to be coming from the Hotel.

"I don't know, but it sounds familiar," said Akane.

"Isn't that the music that Tommy's no good band was playing at school the other day?" asked Ranma.

"Now that you mention it," replied Nabiki as they continued walking to the hotel.

A few minutes of walking revealed the answer as they saw the front door to the hotel. To the right of the door stood Tommy's band playing their music. The group stood there for a moment wondering why the hell they were there until Sonic took it upon himself to materialize a giant rotten tomato and throw it on the band.

"Now THAT was uncalled for Joe!" yelled Tommy whipping the smashed tomato off of him.

"Your MUSIC is uncalled for," replied Sonic, "And WHAT are you doing HERE?"

"Me and my buddies rented a room here Saturday and we've been chilling ever since," replied Tommy.

"Figures," said Rose, "I had to get a hotel where YOU are booked in. Is there anyone who is NOT booked in here?"

"Sadly Yes," said Meowth with Team Rocket walking past the group, "We didn't have any dough to cough up to stay here."

"Ummm, ok..." said Rose in a bit shocked.

"You guys staying here too?" asked Tommy pointing his thumb at the hotel.

"Well Duh," said Sonic, "Why else would we be here in Yukatas?"

"Which rooms are you staying in?" asked Tommy, "We got the medium size rooms on the second floor.

Rose's face gleaned with light at a chance to put Tommy down in his place, "We got the Super Size Rooms on the third floor," she said, "All paid for by me."

"WHAT?" said Tommy as the group continued to walk in, "HEY! Don't walk away from me when I'm talking to you!"

Later that day...

"See you after the bath," said Rose walking into the female changing room with Sakura.

"Ok than," replied Sonic as he walked in Shaoran before he stopped, "Say, what are they going to do with Jeremy?"

Over in the female side, the girls where undressing and getting towels to go into the hot spring. Jeremy had yet to show up and the girls were starting to wonder if he/she had went to the boys side instead. Emily didn't see to care as she took off her underwear and grabbed a towel.

"Emily," said Rose wrapping a towel around herself, "Where's your brother?"

"I walked in on him while he was re-adjusting his Yukata earlier so I bash him out cold with my Mallet," replied Emily.

"Why? You walked in on him," said Rose a bit confused.

"So I was angry," said Emily blushing a bit.

"Of what?" asked Rose wondering if she should even ASK.

"I was angry of my brother having a better figure than me," replied Emily blushing heavily causing all the girls to collapse.

"What was that?" asked Shaoran in the boys changing room.

"Sounded like a bunch of girls falling on hard tile," replied Sonic.

"Yea sure," responded Ranma.

"It was just a guess," replied Sonic walking out into the male hot spring.

"MMMMmmmmmm," sighed Rose when she laid in the hot spring, "Nothing like a nice hot bath in a hot spring to relax the nerves while observing a beautiful sunset."

"I haven't taken one of these in quite a while," replied Sakura sitting down next to Rose and Tommoyo.

"Japan have good hot springs," said Shampoo standing up and rubbing her back with her towel.

"Hot springs are very good for your skin," said Kodachi rubbing her arm with her hand, "Perfect for getting Ranma's attention."

"Ranma's mine," said Ukyo jumping up.

"No, Ranma is Shampoo's," yelled Shampoo turning towards the other two.

"Do those three usually fight like that?" asked Tomoyo as Sakura gave her usual "Hoeeee".

"I haven't known them that long," said Rose, "But I believe this is normal for them."

"Sadly it is," replied Akane.

"Quite Noisy over there, isn't it," said Shaoran, "Just as bad as it is here."

"You'll get used to it," said Sonic as they watched Ranma chase his father for stealing milk from him again.

"You Dirty Pop!" yelled Ranma, "Always stealing my food!"

"You're getting too careless," replied Genma laughing as he rushed by the cold springs.

"Why You!" yelled Ranma just as an old man splashed himself with cold water hitting Ranma too.

Ranma continued to run after his pop not realizing that he had changed into a naked girl running around in the boy's side of the springs. Several men jumped from their bathing as they saw Ranma rush after his pop. Finally Genma rushed back past where Sonic and the others where. Shaoran, being loyal to his wife quickly grabbed a towel and covered Ranma with it the moment he saw her.

Ranma was a bit stunned that Shaoran could move so quickly as Shaoran guided her to a door, "Young Ladies like yourself should be on the girls side of the spring," he said pushing Ranma into the females side.

"But um..." said Ranma as Shaoran shut the door.

"That wasn't a good idea," said Sonic just as the girls screamed and objects where heard flying into the door. A moment later Ranma came back in, half dazed from being beaten and fell into the hot spring changing back into a guy.

"What...What kind of magic is that?" asked Shaoran stunned at Ranma's transformation.

"Cursed springs of Jusenkyo did that to him, hence why I said it was a bad idea to send him over to the girls side," replied Sonic.

"Ohhh," answered Shaoran.

That Night in a padio in the back of the hotel...

"Well that was a nice bath," said Rose watching Akane, Katarina, and Emily playing with some firecrackers.

"Would have been better if Shaoran didn't send me over to the girls side," said Ranma rubbing his black eye.

"Sorry about that," replied Shaoran.

"This sure is a strange world," replied Sakura taking a sip of her tea.

"This world might be strange, but we still love it as our home," replied Soun checkmating Genma on chess.

"That looks like fun," said Kasumi picking up a firecracker and joining Akane.

"Give me one too sis," said Nabiki as she walked up to Kasumi.

"I'm just glad I can spend this time with Shampoo," said Moouse grabbing Tomoyo.

"Um, excuses me," said Tomoyo, "I'm not Shampoo."

"You idiot," yelled Shampoo punching Moouse away from Tomoyo.

The gang enjoyed them selves as they played with firecrackers, drank some tea, and enjoyed the scenery with the half moon, but little did they know they were being watched...aside from MM that is.

The Cameraman in MM's house has just took control of the screen...

"Why are you turning that camera on?" asked Wendy placing a board piece on the board game they where playing.

"Just wanted to point out you aren't watching the others," replied the cameraman.

"She doesn't even have her mirror recording," said Nadeshiko rolling the dice causing a small alarm to get off.

"Ouch, you hit the 'Spring of Drown Frog' Curse," said Wendy as Nadeshiko turned into a frog.

"What are you playing anyways?" asked the cameraman looking for the off switch for the override.

"Curse O' Million," replied Wendy as the camera man hit the off switch.

Well I guess MM wasn't watching, so who is?

"Well Well," said a small voice from the bushes, "If it isn't that Akane and Ranma."

"Hmmm?" asked Rose looking back at the bushes.

"What's wrong?" asked Sonic.

"Thought I heard something," replied Rose.

"Naaa, just your imagination," said Sonic smiling.

"Didn't I meet those two from that RPG?" asked the figure as its wooden face was shown revealing it as a doll as a cloud went past the moon, "This might prove interesting."

With that the doll vanished causing Kalshion and Katarina to sense the power of the aura for a brief moment. They turned to the direction it came from noticing Rose was that way and figured Rose did something to the Aura shards she had again and shook it off.

"Good Evening everyone," said Jeremy walking up to join the group.

"About time you showed up," replied Sonic noticing Jeremy was acting a tad different.

"Do you want to join us?" asked Kasumi in a polite manner.

"Why Yes," said Jeremy in a polite manner smiling.

"Hey Brother," said Emily, "Why are you acting like that?"

"Acting Like what?" asked Jeremy picking up a firecracker.

Emily gave a growl, "You know what I mean."

"I'm afraid I don't," said Jeremy a bit worried over Emily getting all upset.

"You IDIOT!" yelled Emily sending a Mallet at Jeremy who pulled out a Mallet also and blocked Emily's attempt to smash her, "What...WHAT THE?!?"

"Girls are allowed to use Mallets," replied Rose.

"But he's not a girl!" yelled Emily pointing to Jeremy who gave an innocent smile.

"That depends," said Sonic walking up to Jeremy and walking around her, "How hard did you hit him with that mallet earlier?"

"As hard as I could, why?" asked Emily.

"Oh no reason," said Sonic walking back to his seat, "Only you knocked his sense of manhood out the door allowing a sense of womanhood to take hold."

"WHAT!?!" yelled Emily.

"That sounds familiar," said Akane putting her hand to her chin.

"Didn't Ranma have that issue a while back?" asked Kasumi.

"Oh yea," said Akane remembering.

"Well if I knocked his manhood out," said Emily pulling out a bigger mallet, "Than maybe I can knock it back in."

Emily took a huge swing at Jeremy who quietly took out a mallet the size of a fountain pen and whack Emily's mallet sending her to Tokyo. The rest of the group looked at Jeremy for a moment before they dismissed it as being normal and continue what they were doing.

"Hey Ranma," said Akane from the group of girls playing with firecrackers, "Why don't you join us."

"Firecrackers are for girls," said Ranma turning away, "It would be to embarrassing for a guy to play with firecrackers with a bunch of girls."

"What about if your a girl?" asked Akane splashing Ranma with some cold water. Soon Akane dragged Ranma over to the group and gave him a firecracker.

"Nice move," thought Rose as she watched Ranma start to enjoy herself despite what she had said.

"OH, if it isn't my pigtail girl!" said Kuno grabbing Ranma.

"GET LOST JERK!" yelled Ranma sending Kuno off.

"Will you join us Rose?" asked Jeremy turning to Rose.

Rose thought for a moment than smiled, "Sure Jeremy," she replied.

"Oh, you guys can call me Jaime," said Jeremy.

"What ever floats your boat," responded Katarina.

"Well it doesn't float MINE!" yelled Emily startling everyone.

"How did you get back so quickly?" asked Sonic a bit stunned.

"I was fortunate to land in an Italian restaurants where Scotty happened to be eating at. He beamed me over to the hotel just a moment ago," replied Emily.

"Makes sense," said Sonic, "How is he doing anyways?"

"He's doing fine, in fact..." started Emily, "QUIT TRYING TO CHANGE THE SUBJECT!"

"I'm just trying to keep the peace," replied Sonic, "This is a vacation after all."

"But..." started Emily looking at Jaime.

"Just ignore her for now," said Sonic taking a drink of some tea.

That night when everyone was asleep

"Now where did that girl go," said the doll walking down the hall where Akane and her gang was staying. The doll looked around looking at the rooms where she decided to check each room until she found who she was looking for.

She started by slowly opening the door to the boys room and taking a look. Inside she found Moouse holding a pillow softly saying 'Shampoo' in his sleep. Kuno was under his covers constantly getting up saying 'Akane' or 'Pigtail girl'. Kalshion was partially covered with blankets as he moved around a bit to a more comfy spot.

"Not here," thought the doll closing the door.

The Doll moved on to the next room on the right and opened it. Inside she found a huge panda scratching its belly while it was sound asleep. Next was Ranma-chan with her clothes being rather revealing as she twitched from her dream. Knowing how advance Ranma's guard was the doll moved on to find the Tendo girls sleeping peacefully, that is with Nabiki and Kasumi wearing ear plugs as Akane tossed and turn saying "Ranma you idiot" over and over.

As the doll walked out, she found Soun sound asleep at the chess board, probably having fallen asleep there, of course the layout of the board suggested he lost. The doll grinned for a moment before she turned the table around making it look like Soun won. She than quietly walked out and proceed to the door on the other side of the door she just came out of.

"Is she in here?" asked the doll opening the door.

Inside she found a girl with light blue hair, horns sticking out of her head, a tail, and wearing a very revealing leather getup laying on top of her covers curled up. Next to her was Emily laying under her covers glowing with a black aura. She would every once in a while speak the words "Damn you Jaime" causing the aura to grow a bit before it shrunk again. Katarina was sleeping in the corner away from Emily, she was laying on her side under the covers and sleeping rather peacefully.

"She's not here either," thought the doll walking out and going to the last room on that floor.

Inside the doll looked at Ukyo and Shampoo who seemed to be strangling each other in their sleep. Shampoo was wearing a Chinese sleeping gown while Ukyo was in a kimoto. The doll noticed a ribbon hanging from the window and decided to take a peak to find Kodachi holding her ribbon hanging out the window. A sweat drop formed on the doll as it turned around seeing Jaime sound asleep.

"There she is!" thought the doll smiling, "Now to posses her and get close enough to take down that Ranma!"

Back in Emily's room, Emily suddenly sat up awake, "I get the feeling something bad is going to happen to Jaime in a moment," she said.

Emily than thought about what she said before she smiled, "Works for me, Can't wait to find out what happen in the morning."

About this time the doll was on Jaime's chest getting ready to posses her, "This individual will do great in going benefit Ranma's gaurd!" she thought as the transfer began.

Suddenly a white aura appeared around Jaime and formed into a huge mallet. The doll had a small moment to look at it before she was whacked like a golf ball out of the room through the window and into a tree. Jaime's aura than calmed down and vanished just as Rose and Sakura burst in.

"What's going on?" asked Rose looking around.

"I don't know, but I felt a presence in here," replied Sakura.

"Anything wrong?" asked Sonic in a soft voice from outside the room.

"Doesn't appear to be," replied Rose looking at the broken window, "Jaime must have unleashed some power due to her dream."

"What about this girl?" asked Sakura pointing at the window where Kodachi hanged.

"She's fine," said Rose, "Lets go back to bed."

"OK..." said Sakura a bit confused.

That Morning at the Manic Magician Buffet...

"That sucks," said Emily grabbing a biscuit, "Nothing happened to Jaime."

"Why does that suck?" asked Jaime in a polite manner.

"OOOO, I just can't STAND you like this!" yelled Emily smashing her head into the table.

"What is it she can't stand?" whispered Sonic to Rose, "The fact that Jaime is better looking, or better behaved than her?"

Rose gave a giggle as Sonic was smashed into a pancake by Emily's mallet, "SHUT UP YOU!" yelled Emily.

Emily than looked at Jaime who had went back to eating her breakfast ignoring what Emily had done. Emily began to turn red with anger as she continue the watch her. Finally she jumped back and began to charge a massive blast, "DAMN YOU JAIME!" she yelled.

Everyone except Jaime dived under the tables and chairs that were about as Emily released her blast at Jaime. The blast ripped the tile of the floor apart as it went right for Jaime. Emily gave a grin as the blast hit Jaime but fizzled out leaving nothing but a few static shocks around her as she continued to eat her breakfast normally.

"WHAT!?!" yelled Emily confused.

"Hmmm," thought Sonic examining Jaime who continued to eat, "Looks like she has immunity to your attacks here."

"I give!" sighed Emily before she collapsed on the floor.

Just than the bells at the door rang as a few people in cloaks walked in. Rose eyed them for a moment before she went to take care of Emily. That didn't last long however when a few teenagers walked in. Rose instantly dropped Emily's head back on the tile and walked up to them.

"NO YOU DON'T!" she yelled at them.

"How did you know it was us?" asked one of the teenagers as they morphed back into Jedi in robes as the people who were originally in robes than morphed back to teenagers.

"The Shorts Told me," replied Rose.

"Damn that shorts," said the Jedi as they walked out.

"What are you DOING!" yelled the owner of the store, "The Jedi are part of my entertainment you wench!"

"They're WHAT?" yelled Rose in surprise.

"Didn't you read the sign?" asked the owner pointing to a sign on the wall that read 'Jedi saber fights every weekday'.

Rose mumbled as she went outside and apologized to the Jedi who gave a grin as they walked back in. Rose wasn't too happy and Sonic noticed it, so he suggested that they go site seeing. Everyone agreed and soon they were off to spend the day touring the city.

Sometime around noon...we think

"Ranma," called Akane as she moved around in the cloud of dust.

"Akane?" called Ranma as he tried to look for her in the dust.

"RANMA IS SHAMPOO'S!" yelled Shampoo somewhere in the dust as punches, colliding weapons, and Kodachi's laugh was heard.

"What is going on?" asked someone outside the cloud of dust.

"Looks like a fight," replied someone else.

"I think it looks more like a stampede!" yelled someone else.

"Place your bets folks," called Nabiki who amazingly had a stand up just outside the cloud of dust.

"Is that you Akane?" asked Ranma grabbing someone's hand but finding Ryoga instead of Akane.

"Ryoga, when did you get here to Kyoto?" asked Ranma.

"Kyoto? Isn't this Okonawai?" replied Ryoga before a Bonbori smashed into his head.

"Ranma!" called Akane from the distance.

"Akane," yelled Ranma finally reaching her, "Lets get out of here."

Ranma picked up Akane and jumped out of the cloud of dust. They turned around and watched the dust cloud continue to grow in size as images of Shampoo, Ukyo and Kodachi popped in and out of it.

"How long do you suppose they'll be like that?" asked Akane.

"Hopefully for the rest of the day," sighed Ranma.

Meanwhile, Emily and Jaime are walking down a street looking at the shops stopping here and there. Jaime was having a good time showing Emily some of the fabulous jewelry and other accessories as they passed by. And by everyone's surprise, including my own, Emily was actually enjoying herself.

"Hey there cutie," said a boy with a group of his friends, "Site seeing?"

"Yes," replied Jaime smiling.

"Would you like to hang out with us?" asked another boy in the group.

"Ahem," said Emily trying to get attention but not getting any, "AHEM!"

"Can we help you miss?" asked one of the boys who finally noticed her.

Emily's expressing slowly began to get angry as a dark aura began to rise out of her like a flame. Soon flames where seen in her eyes as she gave the boys a punch sending them to the stars.

"What's wrong sis?" asked Jaime receiving a very ugly face from Emily who stormed away.

"I wonder what's wrong," asked Jaime continuing to look around.

"Today's weather along with the entire week will be nothing but clear blue skies with no chance for rain what so ever," said the weather man the TVs in a store as Emily passed by causing a down poor of rain with thunder and lighting streaking every where. "Ummm," said the weather man looking towards where Emily went.

Emily finally stopped by at a cheep love hotel where Kia had just walked out with some boy she had picked up a while ago, "KIA!" she yelled.

"Wh..What is it?" asked Kia scared to death of the aura Emily was giving.

"I need your help," replied Emily as a bolt of lighting smashed behind her.

It wasn't long before Kia and Emily where across the street from Jaime who had a few more boys asking her to hang out with them. Emily eyed the boys before a bolt of lighting struck one of them sending him running from the electricity.

"Let me get this straight," started Kia, "You want me to bring out the evil within Jaime."

"Yes," replied Emily with her eyes glowing red.

"Ok than," replied Kia as she started her chant.

Jaime had just accepted the offer from the remaining boys when she stopped followed by a short earthquake. Jaime's white aura suddenly began to glow and turn black than back to white with a turbulent manner.

"Come on Kia!" said Emily as Kia tried harder to bring out the evil from within.

Finally a blast of dark aura burst from Jaime as she began to laugh evilly. The boys that were with her freaked and ran off as Jaime's eyes turned red. A moment later the black aura was gone and Jaime was back to checking out the items at the next store.

"What?" asked Emily a bit puzzled before she went over to see Jaime only to get smashed by a Mallet Jaime pulled out.

"Looks like her evil is to smash you with a mallet," joked Kia as Emily got off the ground.

"DAMN YOU KIA!" yelled Emily as she tried to strike Kia with lighting bolts.

Several blocks away Akane was looking at some hair ornaments at a store while Ranma leaned against the wall next to her. Ranma glanced at her every so often as she enjoyed her self looking at all the ornaments they had until she finally picked one up.

"This one is soo adorable," said Akane showing it to Ranma, "Oh I wish I could get it."

Ranma looked at it and noted the price tag for 1200 Yen than he felt around in his pocket, "I just got about 1600 yen from Joe for helping him around his house Saturday, I was hopping on spending it on some food while we were here," he thought.

"What is it Ranma?" asked Akane noticing the serious look on his face.

Ranma looked at Akane, "You really like it?" he asked.

"Yes, it’s so cute!" she said.

"Ok than," said Ranma taking the ornament from her hand and purchasing it shocking Akane. Ranma than returned with the ornament in a bag and gave it to Akane who's eyes were wide open.

"Thank you Ranma," she said holding the bag close to her chest just before they heard some yelling.

"RANMA!!!" yelled Ukyo with Shampoo and Kodachi close behind.

"Lets Get out of here!" yelled Ranma grabbing Akane's hand and taking off passing Kasumi on the way.

"Try to be back before supper time," called Kasumi.

That Night...

"Once again Emeral, that was a great dinner," said Soun patting his stomach while he sat looking at the stars on the patio in the back of the hotel.

"Why thank you," replied Rose blushing a bit, "Honey, since everyone else has gone off to enjoy themselves in the woods, would you like to go too?"

"Sure, but is it wise to leave these two alone?" asked Sonic pointing at Genma and Soun, "You know they will attempt to interfere with Ranma and Akane."

"Not to worry," said Rose zapping the chairs with her finger forming pink energy bands tying up Soun and Genma's legs to the chairs, "They are stuck to those chairs now."

"Now wait a minute!" yelled Soun as Genma-panda raised a sign with the same words on it.

"Cya," said Rose as the two walked off.

A little ways off Nabiki, Kuno, Kia and Kasumi were walking around enjoying the start lit sky. Kia constantly hanged on Kuno while Nabiki and Kasumi enjoyed the scenery together. What they didn't notice though was the doll in one of the nearby trees.

"Not them," thought the doll as it floated off looking for someone.

She than came upon Moouse, Shampoo, Ukyo and Kalshion who were walking around. Moouse seemed overly joyed being with Shampoo, but both Shampoo and Ukyo had mad looks on their faces. Kalshion was keeping his distance from Ukyo and was wondering how he got talked into taking Ukyo with him.

"Not them either," thought the doll taking off just as Kalshion looked where the doll had been.

"It's not that bad," came Jaime's voice as the doll approached another spot in the woods.

It landed in a tree to look at Katarina, Jaime, Emily and Kodachi walking around. Emily was still in a very bad mood while Kodachi was upset that she wasn't with Ranma. Katarina was keeping an eye on them like she was some sort of gaurd or something.

"There she is," thought the Doll as she followed them, "Now to get the angry one alone."

After coming to a clearing the girls sat down to rest for a bit. Katarina gazed at the stars that were out with Jaime while Kodachi sat pouting. Emily watched Jaime for a bit before she kicked a stone and sent it through the trunks of several trees before she walked off to be alone.

"Oh I hate her!" thought Emily as she paced back and forth in a secluded spot in the woods.

"Now's my chance," thought the doll as it jumped out of a tree and fell on Emily.

Deeper in the woods near a waterfall, Ranma sat with Akane as she looked at the stars. The two had been rather quiet, not sure what to say to the other. However, Akane was smiling and also wearing the hair ornament Ranma had gave her.

"Now, to get my revenge," thought the doll in Emily's body as she hid in the bushes.

"What do you think your DOING?" said DS slapping Emily's face.

"DS!" said Emily, "I'm doing exactly what you told me, get rid of the protective guy with the girl that always has a mallet handy."

"I didn't mean THOSE TWO!" snared DS, "I meant Rose and Sonic!"

"Those two I met in the RPG?" asked the doll.

"Yes, those two," smiled DS, "Now for fill your end of the bargain for that shard and destroy them."

"Yes DS," said the doll.

About this time, Rose and Sonic had ran into Jaime, Kodachi and Katarina. The girls were still sitting where they were but Emily had not returned. Jaime smiled and went to great Rose and Sonic as they came in but only Katarina noticed that Rose seemed to be in a bad mood.

"What's wrong Emeral?" asked Katarina.

Rose's expression turned a bit more aggressive, "There's a Jedi training camp less than a Km from here," she said.

"What's wrong...oh, I see," said Katarina not wanting to make things worse.

"Say, where's Emily?" asked Sonic.

"I'm right here," said Emily walking up, "Just needed to cool off for a while."

"I see," replied Katarina.

"I'm sick of this," yelled Kodachi finally stripping off her Yukata revealing her leotard, "I'm off to see Ranma Honey!"

"No you don't," said Katarina intercepting Kodachi and giving her a kick which she blocked.

"Don't get in my way girl," said Kodachi laughing.

Katarina grinned, "You think you can take me?"

"This might be an interesting match," said Sonic sitting down and pulling popcorn out of no where, "A fight between a dragon decedent and a crazy girl."

"Let me have some," said Rose sitting down and getting some popcorn.

"I'll join you two," said Emily with a grin, but before she could reach the stump where they were sitting, Jaime had pulled out a mallet and slammed Emily into the woods.

"Why did you do that for?" asked Rose.

"Sorry, I had an evil impulse," replied Jaime.

"AHHHHHHHHH!" screamed Emily as she smashed into a tree and an energy ball flew out of her materializing the doll.

"THAT HURT!" the doll yelled before she ran off.

"Ohhh," thought Emily as she regain her senses, "Say, why am I over here?"

"Don't know, but do you think you can help me chop some wood," said Ryoga chopping wood with his hand.

"Why would I want to help you," said Emily returning to her bad mood.

"Might get your mind off of things," replied Ryoga, "Besides, I can't seem to find my way back to the training camp that asked me to get some fire wood.

"Can't you learn how to use a map," sighed Emily.

The Next Day

Seeing it was their last day at Kyoto, Rose decided that everyone should go to the near by pool and have some fun and relaxation before they leave. Since no one had brought their swimsuits, Rose took everyone out to buy some at a near by store, which she drowned the manager with her wallet once again. Finally Rose took them to the pool which Sonic was again hesitant about going into a place that was named "Marine Mante", but Rose once again told him he was imagining things.

"That's a nice outfit you picked sweetoms," said Sonic looking at Rose's pink two piece swim suit.

"Stop it," said Rose blushing a bit, "Oh, that’s a cute swimsuit Akane!"

"You think so?" replied Akane wearing a light green one piece swimsuit.

It didn't take long for a cloud of dust to blast out of the changing room and smacking Shampoo, Ukyo and Kodachi on the wall. Shampoo was wearing a one piece blue swimsuit with holes on the sides. Ukyo had picked out a green one piece swimsuit that had a cut that revealed part of her chest. Kodachi as usual was wearing a black two piece swimsuit.

"I told them not to fight," said Kia walking out in her usual getup.

"Why didn't you get a swim suit?" asked Sonic.

"This works as a swim suit too ya know," replied Kia.

"Right," replied Sonic as Emily came out with a black tight two piece swimsuit.

Instantly some of the guys came around impressed with Emily, which she didn't mind until Jaime came out with her white two piece. All the guys suddenly left Emily and took off to see Jaime. Emily growled before she dismissed it and went to find a towel to lay on for a tan.

Soon Kasumi had came out in a green with white stripes one piece swimsuit followed by Nabiki who had a purple one piece swim suit on. Kasumi was carrying a case of refreshments she had made and went with Nabiki to set up a picnic area for the family.

"So your going to stay in the shallow end of the poll aren't ya," said Ranma-chan sneaking up on Akane.

Akane gave a face and turn to see the watermelon one piece swimsuit Ranma choose, "Yes, what is it to you! You can't swim without being a girl."

"Hey!" replied Ranma.

"Ranma might have issues staying a girl in this HEATED pool," said Wendy in a one piece navy blue swimsuit.

It didn't take long for Rose to slam Sonic with a mallet for having his heart skip a beat, nor Sonic growling at her that her heart had done so too. They turned back to Wendy finding Akane slamming a Mallet on Ranma for staring at Wendy for too long. Not long after Rose realized that every boy in the pool had started to stare at her like zombies.

"Alright, What are YOU doing here?" asked Rose.

"This is a pool establishment I made to earn some extra cash," replied Wendy.

"But you let us in FREE?" asked Rose.

"After I made it I remembered I already have more money then I can spend," answered Wendy, "At least the Jedi like it."

"What Jedi..." asked Rose turning around finally noticing the small section in the back that connected to the Jedi training camp.

"So what do I do now?" asked Ranma-chan, "I didn't get a male swimsuit."

"Oh, you can borrow one of mine," replied Wendy snapping her fingers and ten pounds of swimsuits for boys fell on Ranma.

"Thanks," said Ranma with a muffled voice.

"Say, where's Sakura and her friends?" asked Akane.

"Oh she'll be here, when ever Kero decided to stop stuffing his face," replied Rose.

The rest of the morning was rather uneventful, it took a while for Shampoo and Moouse to realize they could swim in human forms. Ranma was practicing laps accross the pull while Akane sat at the edge of the shallow end soaking her feet. Rose was busy doing the breast stroke when Sakura and her gang showed up. It didn't take long for Kero to change into his true form and do a cannon ball from ten meters in the air.

"Rose, Sonic" called Sakura waving her hands at Rose and Sonic causing a bit of confusion among those who did not know their true names.

"Sakura!" called Rose swimming up to her.

"That was a lovely Breast Stroke Rose," said Tomoyo holding her camera.

"Thanks," replied Rose, "Looks like Kero is already enjoying himself."

"He really shouldn't swim just after he ate though," replied Sakura.

"He'll be fine," said Sonic walking up.

"Say Sakura, could you do me a favor?" asked Rose.

"What is it?" asked Sakura.

"Could you try and teach Akane how to swim," answered Rose, "I remember how you thought Rika how to swim and was hopping it would work on Akane."

"Sure, I'll give it my best," replied Sakura smiling.

A while later, Sakura was holding Akane up by the belly as she had Akane practice stroking her arms and kicking her feat. Everything looked ok until Sakura let go and Akane sank like a Rock to the floor. Sakura didn't understand it but she didn't give up.

"Why did you even bother," asked Ranma standing by Rose and Sonic in the pool, "We've tried to get her to swim before, and it didn't work."

"It was worth a shot," said Rose as Akane sank to the bottom again shaking the whole pool.

Just behind Rose, Wendy was looking over her shoulder at Akane and Sakura before she finally shook her head and went back to what she was doing. Rose had noticed her a while earlier and was curious to why she shook her head.

"What was that for," asked Rose.

"Because your trying to make Akane swim," replied Wendy.

"And what is wrong with that?" asked Rose.

"This," answered Wendy giving Rose a pamphlet that explained in high detail and difficult vocabulary that Akane was cursed to never be able to swim unless she had a flotation device.

"Ohhh," said Rose with a frown on her face just as a beam saber flew by her hair taking a good junk out of it.

"Sorry about that!" called a Jedi.

"Why...WHY THAT..." started Rose as her hair re-grew.

"Oh Look," said Sonic grabbing Rose, "A game of water volleyball."

"What was that about?" asked Ranma looking at Sonic drag Rose away.

"Oh nothing," giggled Wendy.
