"Team Ranma vs. The Seven Seishi of Suzaku" A Ranma Fushigi Yuugi fanfic By David Myers Disclaimer: Fushigi Yuugi created by Watase Yuu, Ranma created by Rumiko Takahashi. All characters belong to them and I don't want to infringe upon anyone's rights. Fushigi Yuugi is the story about a girl who gathered the seven Seishi of Suzaku and gained omnipotent power. The Story itself is an incantation; those who finish reading it will receive this power. As soon as the page is turned the story will become the truth and begin. Ranma 1/2 is the story about a boy who turns into a girl, a father who changes into a Panda, and the curse that did it to them. Yin and Yang was never so much fun. Authors Note: Apologies to those of you that have not seen FY, but frankly an explanation of the series could end up taking longer than this story itself. Its kind of a "Never-ending Story" meets "Once Upon a Time in China". Put simply, Miaka is a high school student who finds a book which transport her to a world resembling ancient China. There she adopts the role of Suzaku no Miko, a priestess with the power to summon a god of that world, Suzaku. She can do this by gathering Suzakus seven Seishi; seven warriors who each posses different skills and abilities. Yui, her best friend is also duped into becoming Miaka's enemy Seiryuu no Miko. She too has seven Seishi. I'll try to keep spoilers to a minimum. This fanfic wont have as much comedy as I would like, but if all goes to plan, it should have quite a bit of fighting and plenty of action so I consider that an acceptable tradeoff. For the benefit of FY fans: This story takes place after Miaka and Yui have returned to their own world. I've only seen up to episode 28, but in my story this is what has occurred since: -Miaka and Yui have made up and returned to their world. -Anyone who may have died has somehow been resurrected. -Tamahome is still in the World of the Four Gods as are all the other Seishi. -Yui and Miaka both passed their entrance exams and are proud students of Jonan Academy.

"The scroll of summoning you say?" He asked the cursed antique dealer. "Yeah, Ancient Chinese said it had the power to summon some kind of ultimate warrior from another world, or some darn thing. Not that I believe in the whole darn story, but once summoned this warriors suppose to fulfill your wishes. Sounds like an old wives tale if you ask me, but that's what they say." "Fulfill my wishes, hmmm. How much?" "I'm not saying I believe in the whole darn thing but I'm not sure I should sell it to you. After all, that thing could be dangerous. Lord knows that stupid egg was no end of trouble. Maybe it would be best if I kept it here." the cursed antique dealer protested. "Oh... well if you think that's what's best." Gosunkugi replied, clearly disappointed. "On the other hand. Its not like I get that many customers in. What's more I haven't made a sale in quite some time. Oh, what harm could it do... 2000 Yen!" "Great!" The student exclaimed and quickly paid the cursed antique dealer and hurried out of the store. Gosunkugi sat on the floor surrounded by candles, which were the only source of illumination in his dark bedroom. He sat cross-legged in the middle of a circle of white chalk, holding the scroll, "At last... at last I can have my revenge against Ranma Saotome. With this ultimate warrior from the other world I can eliminate him from the competition, and make Akane Tendo mine." He smiled somewhat insanely at the thought, then turned back to the scroll. "Hmm, so all I do is read these words and he'll come forth. OK then." Gosunkugi cleared his throat. "By the way and the mind, from the world of the Four Gods from the Four Empires I call you. From the seven who are found by one to summon one, whose destiny has been preordained by the stars I call to you, to come forth and be made flesh! Come forth!" He looked around. That was it, he'd spoken the words, if anything were going to happen it would happen now. Seconds passed. After what seemed an eternity, Gosunkugi decided he'd been ripped off, again, but then a bright light began to shine from the scroll. The High School student shuffled back, somewhat fearfully, as the light became piercing. Blinded, Gosunkugi looked away unable to see anything as the doorway between worlds opened, and then shut, leaving the room illuminated by a dull blue glow coming from a figure crouched over the scroll. He couldn't make the figure out. As it remained hunched over, electricity crackling over its body. All that was visible of the character was a purple cape, and long armored spikes coming from it's shoulders. The electricity subsided and the figure rose to its feet, its back to the would-be warlock. The figure looked around for a second before it removed its medieval looking helmet, revealing long flowing locks of blonde hair. He turned at this point and looked about the room before his eyes centered on Gosunkugi. Gosunkugi marveled at the man before him. Standing well over six feet tall, he was clearly a Gaijin. His face was smooth and handsome and his eyes were an icy cold blue. He wore medieval armor and the afore mentioned purple cape. If he was confused, to his credit he didn't show it. "Where am I?" he asked in a soft, smooth and almost seductive voice. "Who are you?" Gosunkugi coughed still unable to believe the scroll had actually worked. "I..I..I'm Hikaru Gosunkugi, I summoned you, from the other world. To fulfill my wish." "Other world?" the Gaijin asked. Gosunkugi started to say something, but the blonde haired man held up his finger indicating silence and moved to the window. He parted the curtains and looked out onto the street. "The other world." He closed his eyes for a moment as if searching for something. After a few moments he opened them again, and his left lip curled up into a half smile as he exclaimed, "She's here!" "Who's here?" he asked, but instead of answering, the Gaijin turned and knelt on one knee before him. "I am Nakago. How may I fulfill your wish?" Gosunkugi felt a little awkward at this point. He knew what he wanted, but it was embarrassing to actually say it. "Well.. there's this girl..." "Girl?" Nakago asked. "Yeah, Akane Tendo. Well, she has a fiancÈe named Ranma Saotome. He's a really big martial artist around these parts. I was hoping you could take care of him so she would..." "Be free to be with you." the large Gaijin finished. "Y.Y..Yeah." Gosunkugi stuttered. Nakago thought for a minute before rising to his feet. "Come let us meet this Saotome, so I may better get to know his strengths." "You mean you'll do it!?" Nakago nodded slowly. "OK then, I'll take you to the Tendo Dojo." Gosunkugi ran to his door and opened it courteously for his otherworldly guest. Nakago walked through, his lip once again curled into a smug half smile. "Miaka, you are going to have to stop falling asleep in English class." Yui scolded mockingly. "It's not my fault that Hiroshi-sempai's class is so boring, Yui-chan" Miaka replied. "I think Kosaku-kun has his eye on you." Yui teased. She immediately regretted it though as the usually cheerful Miaka fell sullen. Yui smiled somewhat apologetically, "Sorry, Miaka. You still miss him a lot, don't you." Miaka nodded despondently. "Come on I'll treat you to some Okynomiyaki, I'm sure Ucchan's is still open." "Really!" said Miaka suddenly excited, "You'll really treat me to some Okynomiyaki! Wai Wai Wai!" Yui laughed at her friend's quick change of mood. She realized that most of it was cosmetic, however it was still good to see her cheerful once more. Miaka had been like this a lot recently, the absence of her one true love, protector and Seishi Tamahome, had weighed heavily on her mood. If things didn't change soon, Miaka might end up paying another visit to the National Library; and whilst Konan was full of friendly people who all loved Miaka dearly, Yui had no desire to return to Kutou, and... him. All those dark thoughts and memories fled from her mind however as her friend grabbed her hand and the two raced off to the local Okynomiyaki store. Gosunkugi stood next to Nakago behind the wall to the Tendo Dojo. From inside the sounds of two combatants could be heard. "Now what?" he asked. Nakago looked at the top of the wall and back to his smaller companion. "Now we shall watch this Saotome, in action." Nakago placed his hand on Gosunkugi's shoulder and the two vanished into thin air. Ranma leaped and danced along the rocks surrounding the pool. It was unusual for his pop to request an afternoon training session, but lately his antics had been irritating Ranma more than usual, so he'd been only too happy to oblige. Father and son leaped from rock to rock kicking and punching in mid air as they used technique after technique to tip the other into the pond. Finally Ranma leapt into the air and kicked his father in the face. The force of his kick sent the two martial artists flying over the pond and for once they landed on the grass. "Something the matter pop? We done already?" Ranma asked standing comfortably on his father's face. Ranma stopped for a minute sensing something out of place. He looked up at the wall, and squinted his eyes, trying to see what it was his body had sensed. Genma responded by bringing his legs up and locking them around Ranma's waist before throwing him into the ground. "Insolent boy! En Garde!" Genma began throwing punch after punch at his son, who blocked one after the other. Unseen from a nearby rooftop Nakago and Gosunkugi watched the battle. "He could see us!" Gosunkugi exclaimed "No, but he sensed us. Hmm, interesting, the two of them are surrounded by curse magic." "Curse magic?" "Ranma! Dinner's almost ready!" Akane called out. P-chan following dutifully behind her. "There she is, that's Akane." Gosunkugi paused suddenly, concerned, "Is she surrounded with curse magic as well?" "No.... but the pig is. There is more to your opponent than meets the eye." Nakago looked at Gosunkugi thoughtfully. Then carefully choose his words, "I cannot defeat him alone. I may need the help of my allies. Would you be able to call them from my world into this one?" "Huh? You can't beat him?" "His martial arts is superb, I've only seen one other who is his equal. Also he is well guarded, this Akane is also a fine warrior, and the boys father too. If I were reunited with my six comrades I'm sure we could defeat them easily." "SIX!!!! SIX comrades!?" "Seishi. If all seven of us are united then I doubt any could stand in our way." "I dunno.." Nakago turned to his young companion and smiled. Then he began speaking very softly, "Gosunkugi-sama you have summoned me to fulfill your wish, which I will do. The Tendo girl will be yours, however, I am not strong enough to do that which is required. Only the might of the Seven Seiryuu Seishi can defeat Ranma and his allies. We will all serve you until we have achieved that which you most desire. Give me that which I need, and the world will be yours." "Well... I suppose, all right. I'll do it again." Nakago's lip once twitched into his half smile. The first stage of his plan had begun. There was a danger, but perhaps, those who would be his enemies could be exploited. He was going to like this world, he could see that now. Chiriko, Nuriko and Hotohori all clutched their heads. The chant had come again and the feeling of being pulled away was just as strong this time as it had been the last. The Royal vessels ran to their aid, but it took all their will power to resist the calling. Finally, it passed and the three Seishi fell to the ground. "Interesting, the duration of the chant was shorter this time than the last." Chiriko commented. "What could be causing it?" Hotohori asked. "I'm not sure. Although I have a suspicion, and if what I suspect is true we might all have a lot of trouble. I wish Chichiri was here, his insight into this matter would be helpful." After Suzaku no Miko had returned to her world, the seven Seishi had once again gone their separate ways. Chiriko and Nuriko had remained at the court with the emperor, Hotohori, but Tasuki, Tamahome, Mitsukake and Chichiri had all gone their separate ways. With Miaka gone there had no longer been any reason for the seven holy warriors to remain together. Whilst they were all good friends, each of them had his own paths to travel. Tasuki was again leading the Leikaku bandits whose activities had spread much further than the confines of Mt Leikaku. Tamahome had departed to once again try to make some money, he hadn't had much success for two reasons. The first one was that his heart was no longer in it; with Miaka gone, his motivation to accumulate wealth had diminished significantly. The second reason was that a particular group of bandits had a special knack for following him wherever he went. Whilst most of the time he had been successful in fighting them off, they were persistant enough to keep him in poverty. Mitsukake had returned to Choka and was once again practicing medicine. Chichiri was again on the road, and it was impossible to find him. The masked monk would pop up from time to time, but his travels were known only to himself. "If we are all feeling it won't the others?" Nuriko asked. "That's what I'm afraid of." answered the 13-year-old. His Suzaku symbol "Stretching" clearly shone from his foot. Ranma finished off his soba noodles and slurped up the remaining soup. "Mmm, good!" he said, smiling contentedly. He looked out at the garden enjoying the warm breeze on his face. He then looked across at his fiancee who had a strange smile on her face. The more he looked at her the uneasier he felt. "What?" he asked, her smile only grew wider. "Did you enjoy that?" she asked sweetly... a little too sweetly in fact. Uh oh, this could only mean one thing... "You didn't..." She smiled as she slammed a large oddly shaped brown looking... thing onto the table. It was divided into three lumps. "I made some desert!" Soun, Genma, Nabiki and Ranma's eyes all twitched. "Oh well isn't that nice of you Akane." Kasumi complemented her. "Hmm, as much as I would like to, I am on a diet. Be sure to enjoy it in my place." Nabiki said tactfully. "Go on have some!" Akane said to Ranma. "Uh uh, no way Akane, I'm not about to eat that." Ranma protested. "..and why not?" "Well, isn't it obvious? This isn't the cake you cooked." Ranma said pointing at it "It isn't?" Akane asked confused "It's the dog that died after eating the cake you cooked... and I draw the line at eating dog meat." "RANMA NO BAKA!!" She cried smashing him over the head with the water jug. The unconscious Ranma-chan fell to the ground. Akane turned and stormed out of the room. Nakago appeared at the side of the road. He turned and looked towards the Dojo and smiled to himself. Thing were beginning to get very interesting. Yes, things were getting very interesting indeed. The two guards to the Mt Leikaku bandit stronghold stood chatting, their pikes hanging lazily by their shoulders. "So I says baby you're the only one for me, and she says well I'm not sure you're the only one for me." "Man that's cold!" "I know, Jeez when's this shift going to end?" the guard griped. Suddenly a shadow formed behind the two. "DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" cried Chichiri, appearing from the shadow. The second guard cried out in fright and leapt into the first's arms. "A MONSTER!!!!" "Don't be rude, no da." Chichiri looked at the guard, a little hurt, "Is Tasuki in? I'll just have a looksy, na no da" Chichiri opened the door to the bandits hideout and started walking purposefully through the halls. His attempts at finding Mitsukake and Tamahome had both failed, as the two Seishi had already begun their journey to the capital. There was no telling where they might be by now. Chichiri had recognized the summoning call for what it was, and he was convinced that every Seishi in the world of the Four Gods would have felt the call. The problem was that someone had responded to it. Chichiri feared that whoever that person was he wasn't a Suzaku Seishi, and that very simply meant trouble. The calling was very strong and the growing uneasiness was undeniable. They were all on alert so Chichiri guessed that if Tasuki hadn't left already he should be ready to go at least. Chichiri shoved the door to the Bandit leader's room open "Tasuki, time to go na no da!" Tasuki lay totally intoxicated in the middle of the room a large bottle of alcohol in one hand and his Iron fan or Tessen in the other. Chichiri fell to the ground in shock. He grabbed Tasuki and shook him urgently. "Tasuki, Tasuki wake up no daaa!" Tasuki's eyes slowly opened and he smiled stupidly at his comrade. "Chichiriiii.." he slurred "Yes Tasuki it's me no da. Come on we have to go na no da." "Piss off! Gen-chan sleep now" "Wake up. Haven't you felt the call" "Oh yeah I felt it alright." The wandering monk looked down at his friend " Biggest fucking hangover this side of Konan. Now piss off and let me sleep." Chichiri exasperated dropped his comrade. He supposed he shouldn't have been surprised. But right now he didn't have time to indulge his fellow Seishi in the oblivion of sleep. Suzaku no miko was in danger and they were both needed. He laid his purple cloak out onto the ground, and rolled the snoozing bandit onto it. After tapping it once with his staff it glowed for a minute and Tasuki sank into nothingness. The mage then hopped up into the air and onto the cloak himself, which then proceeded to fall in on itself until nothing was left. Amiboshi sat on Gosunkugi's bed playing his flute, which seemed to have a somewhat calming effect on his twin, who was busy pacing. Gosunkugi had been shocked, when not one but two Seishi had appeared from the scroll of summoning. The two were identical twins, however, they were as different in character as they were similar in looks. Amiboshi was patient calm and content to await his comrade's return whereas Suboshi paced continuously, impatient and restless. "What's keeping him?" Suboshi cried. "I'm sure he'll be along soon." Gosunkugi said meekly. "Who asked you?" the impatient 15 year old retorted. Amiboshi stopped playing his flute as the door to Gosunkugi's room opened and Nakago strode through. "See he's here.." Gosunkugi said smiling, Amiboshi lifted his flute to his lips and began playing a tune. Gosunkugi's eyes began to droop and then he fell limply onto the bed. "He should have pleasant dreams." The flute player said. "Be careful we need him if all the Seishi are to be summoned" Nakago said. "Why are we all coming to this strange land?" Suboshi demanded. Nakago looked at him sternly and Suboshi shrank back. Nakago moved in close to him and said quietly. "Because, all the Seishi are needed if Seiryuu no Miko is to summon Seiryuu." "What?" Both twins said together. "Have you not felt her presence? This is the homeworld of Seiryuu no miko." "Yui-sama's homeworld?" Suboshi said somewhat uplifted "Isn't there a danger that some of the Suzaku no Seishi will follow us to this world?" Amiboshi asked. Nakago looked at him for a few seconds. "I'm counting on it." Suboshi smiled as Amiboshi raised his eyebrows. Chichiri, Hotohori, Nuriko, Chiriko and a somewhat hung over Tasuki sat at a conference table. Discussing the recent feeling each had been sharing. "This uneasiness it's getting stronger" Nuriko said. "Chiriko and I have compared notes and we think we know what's occurring na no da." Chichiri said removing his happy mask to reveal his scarred face underneath. "Someone or something is creating a rift between our world and the other world." "Rift, what's that?" asked Tasuki looking agitated "A door between the two worlds. When Miaka and her friend traveled to this world they did so by unwittingly opening a door in which the Miko can use to travel to our world. It appears there is another door in which Seishi can use to travel to her world." Chiriko answered. "So the feelings we have all felt was the doorway opening?" Nuriko asked. "That's correct no da. But the fact that the feeling subsided means that someone answered that call no da" "Ahhh so Tama and Mitsukake have gone to the other world?" Tasuki asked "No, their both still here no da" Chichiri answered. "Then who went through the door?" The bandit asked "We think some of the Seiryuu Seishi did." "WHAT!!" Tasuki screamed. "Then Miaka is in danger!" The Emperor hissed. "Those asseholes are running around her world. With none of us to protect her!" Tasuki exclaimed. "The real question is why no da." "I think I know." Answered Chiriko. "Suzaku no miko and Seiryuu no miko both traveled to this world through the Shi Jin Ten Chi Sho of that world. If Nakago could find that book since it has no alignment with any one of the gods, it could be used to summon Seiryuu in that world. Seiryuu no miko would be given another set of wishes." Hotohori sighed heavily. "We must do everything to see to it that doesn't happen. We must find a way to protect Miaka." "But how, they are in that world we're stuck in this one." Nuriko complained "No they need to open the portal a few more times to allow the other Seiryuu no Seishi through. When next the feeling occurs one of us must answer it." Chiriko answered "Hmm there's a risk, but there's the possibility I could use my power to piggy back along with whoever answers it no da, if I'm close to them when they open the door na no da. That way there could be two of us through the portal at once no da." Chichiri suggested. "Very good then we must all prepare for the next opening of the doorway between worlds." Hotohori replied. "Do not fear Miaka.. we'll protect you... surely." "Oh Hotohori sama!" Nuriko pined. "Niahao Ranma!" Shampoo cried bounding into the room an enthusiastic bundle of energy. She immediately glomped onto Ranma and indicated her box of Ramen. "Shampoo make too too delicious Ramen for Ranma. You eat yes!" She shoved the bowl of noodles into Ranma's upraised arms. "Hey you didn't go puttin' no love potions or nothing in there did ya?" Ranma asked suspiciously. "Ranma what you talking?" The young amazon replied smiling innocently. "Oh I see. So Shampoo's food is good enough for you but mine's not. Is that it Ranma." Akane accused "Oh hey Akane, there's nothing for you get angry about. I'm just..." Ranma started , but he was cut short as Ryoga grabbed Ranma by the shirt. "You expect her to not get angry about this!" "Ryoga?" Ranma said surprised " How dare you, is it so much to ask to eat food that Akane has lovingly slaved over. I would die to have someone treat me like that!" Ryoga cried "Hey you'll be dieing if you eat that stuff. It's not my fault it's not fit for human consumption." "Ranma right, Shampoo much better cook than Akane!" "Is that so?" said Akane icily, as she threw a glass of water at the three martial artists. Ryoga watched as the cold water flew through the air towards him. His thoughts and dreams were about to be shattered as Akane would find out his deepest darkest secret. "Noooo" he cried out as the water hit him and... nothing happened. The water had hit all three of them and not one of the martial artists had changed. "Hey I'm still a guy" Ranma said "Shampoo no turn into cat" Shampoo added "..and I'm still..... angry at you Ranma" Ryoga exclaimed "What is going on?" said Akane. "That would be my doing." Answered Nakago. All four looked at Nakago as he stood before them his hands glowed brightly. Something was different about the summoning this time. To begin with Gosunkugi had expected the Seishi to appear as the others had crouched over the Scroll. However this time the Seishi had appeared two feet above Gosunkugi's head. The gruff red haired man wearing a blue trenchcoat and some kind of huge Iron fan attached to his back had fallen through the portal on top of Gosunkugi. Scant seconds later another man or thing had fallen through on top of the trench-coated man. It was small about two feet tall, with blue hair which was all pushed back, except for the largest fringe Gosunkugi had ever seen which was pushed directly up. The midget carried a staff and looked quite cute as he squinted at him smiling. He hopped onto the trench-coated mans head then to Gosunkugi's and then to the ground. He then began surveying the area as if looking for something but not really searching. "ASSEHOLE! WHATS THE BIG IDEA!" Tasuki yelled at Gosunkugi. "Sorry? I... I.. don't understand." He stammered in reply. The superdeformed Chichiri turned to him and in a sudden puff of smoke changed into a tall equivalent of the midget. "Where are the others?" "Well... ahh... Suboshi said he was going to look for someone called Seiryuu no Miko. Amiboshi didn't think he should, so he went to look for Nakago." "Oh Shit! That blonde haired freak is here." Tasuki whistled. Chichiri thought for a minute. "Seiryuu no Miko and Suzaku no Miko are best friends again no da. So if Suboshi finds Seiryuu no Miko...." The bandit leader nodded and grabbing his iron Tessen from its back sheath the two raced from the room. "The more I summon the weirder they get." Gosunkugi muttered. Mousse, Ranma, Ryoga and Shampoo all sat around in a circle talking to Nakago. "You mean we can be cured!" Ranma cried. Nakago smiled "I am a master of curse magic I can remove your curses... in return for some favors..." "You really cure us?" Shampoo asked. "What kind of favors?" asked Mousse adjusting his glasses. "I am looking for a girl, called Suzaku no Miko. Unfortunately she is guarded by seven warriors or Seishi." "Seishi isn't that a constellation?" Ryoga asked "So ya all want us to beat up the seven warriors so you can get to the girl. No problem." Ranma said cockily. "I would warn you not to underestimate them. Each of the seven are very powerful." "The can't be any worse than the Seven Lucky Gods." Ryoga commented. "Hey, whatever it takes... I'll do whatever it takes to be cured!" Ranma exclaimed. Nakago once again grinned evilly."Perfect.. that's just the kind of arrangement I'm looking for." Nakago answered. Suddenly Amiboshi leapt onto the wall and landed beside Nakago. He prostrated himself before his shogun and fellow Seishi. "Nakago-sama my brother has grown impatient and has begun looking for Seiryuu no Miko." "No matter, we must find Suboshi quickly." He answered. Then turning to Ranma and his friends and said "Come I may have need of you sooner than I thought." "Yuiii have you finished the Algebra assignment?" Miaka asked her friend. Yui nodded in response. "Mmmhmm I'm about halfway through." "Wanna get something to eat, so I can have a look at it? Please?" Miaka begged. "You are so hopeless, Miaka" Yui jested. "You mean you'll do it?" Miaka asked. Her friend smiled and nodded. "Ahh! Yui-chans my best friend in the whole world!!" Miaka cried and grabbed her friend in a fierce hug. Yui just laughed. "GET.. AWAY.. FROM... HER!" a voice said. "Huh?" Yui said. "Who?" Miaka asked. "Who? Your executioner is who." Suboshi cried lifting his weapon. The Ryuseisui was attached to his belt by two strands of rope at either hip. At the end of each rope a ball was connected with long blue hairs going in all directions. The young Seiryuu Seishi twisted the two balls on either rope causing them to spin rapidly. The momentum caused the hairs to fly out from the centripetal force of the ball, causing each ball to become a sharp razor like weapon. "RYUSEISUI!!!!" He cried and threw one of the ends of his weapon at Miaka. "Miaka look out!!" Yui cried as Suboshi's Ryuseisui carved up the pavement. Yui pushed Miaka out of the way. The small spinning ball at the end of his rope moved closer to Yui herself but Suboshi jerked it back at the last minute. He leaped down in between the two friends and faced Miaka. His spinning Ryuseisui hovering in the air by his shoulders. "You are the enemy of Seiryuu, and I will see that you are destroyed." Miaka, stunned, crawled back away from the 15-year-old warrior. "You... no... how?" she exclaimed "You'll never know!" Suboshi replied. As he readied his weapon a new voice came from the wall. "I see you still using that pissy little yo-yo." Suboshi looked up at Tasuki in surprise. "Lemme show ya what a real weapon can do." He said grinning evilly. He snapped open his Tessen as he leapt into the air and waved his fan before him, "LEKKA SHIEN!" A blast of fire erupted from the Tessen and flew towards the Seiryuu Seishi. Suboshi grabbed Yui and leaped out of the way as the fire blast hit the pavement. Tasuki landed by Miaka's side. "TASUKI!" she cried in relief. "Heh heh heh. Not so tough when you're not facing women and children are you Yo Yo boy?" Tasuki accused. "You!!" Suboshi said but he was cut short by Nakago. "Enough Suboshi! Bring Yui sama to safety. Tasuki you have done well to find us so quickly." Nakago said softly. "Shut the fuck up LoudMouth!! Why don't you come down here and I'll show you how happy I am to see you, assehole." "I have other things to attend to, but I'd like for you to meet some of my new allies. I'm sure they'll provide you with plenty of amusement. Ranma!" Ranma, Ryoga, Shampoo, and Mousse all leapt to the ground,surrounding Tasuki and Miaka on each side. The Suzaku Seishi looked at each of them nervously. "I don't wanna do this buddy, but we need that girl. So back off or you're gunna get hurt." Ranma challenged. ***Insert funky music**** Tasuki held his Tessen up in response and smiled at Ranma. "You try it Assehole.... And your gunna get burned." Ranma stood watching Tasuki and each of the martial artists crouched into a combat position. Miaka clutched at her protector, looking wearily at Shampoo. Nakago just stood on the wall and smiled evilly. This should prove to be interesting. End of Chapter 1. Email: davenader@hotmail.com
