Pretty Sammy Fan Fiction / Ranma 1/2 Fan Fiction ❯ Magical Girl Pretty Ranko?! ❯ . . . And Ranma Groans ( Chapter 2 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
Disclaimer: I don't own either Ranma ½ or Magical Girl Pretty Sammy.
I do, however, own the only fanfic I know of which crosses them over.
Just goes to show how twisted my mind is. ^_^

*...* denotes thoughts.
[...] denotes a panda sign.

What went on before: Pretty simple, actually. The next in line for
the throne of a magical world called Juraihelm chose Ranma as her
champion, to make the earth a better place. Needless to say, Ranma
wasn't thrilled with becoming a magical girl, but when he was told
that it'd let him control his curse...*picture of Ranma jumping up
and down*.

Warning: This is turning out to be quite a bit different then the
first, especially in the beginning. Email me to tell me if you
prefer the original style. If that's the case, I'll switch back and
it'll become a short 3/ 4 chapter series. As is, *shrug* I don't
know how long it'll run.

For those of you who don't know anything about Magical Girl Pretty
Sammy, a really, really quick character guide is set up in the
following three paragraphs. If you know it, feel free to skip ahead.

Tsunami: Chosen by the counsel of Juraihelm to be the next in line
for the throne. She is required to select someone from earth to
become her champion. If the girl she selects does well, the throne
is assured.

Ramia: Tsunami's rival for the throne. By all appearances she seems
to be a much better choice for the throne. She's beautiful,
intelligent, and down to 'earth', but has quite the ego. In order to
prove that she is the right choice for the throne, she chooses her
own champion, to do battle with Pretty Sammy and prove that Tsunami
was the wrong choice.

Rumiya: Ramia's little brother/ lackey. He is sent on her errands,
including setting up things with her chosen champion. In order to do
so, he transforms into a bird and turns her into Pixy Misa, without
her ever knowing about it.


Magical Girl Pretty Ranko?!
Chapter 2 - ...And Ranma Groans

Ranma muttered to himself as he tried to find his way home.
Wait a minute...strike that. As she tried to find HER way home.
Ranma blinked a couple times. *Might as well change back. After all,
it's the only good thing that came out of this whole thing.*

Ranma stopped in the middle of the side walk, taking a quick
moment to concentrate on turning back into a male. *Ahhh...much
better!* Ranma started walking down the street when something
brought him to a halt. Why was 'his' chest bouncing up and down as
'he' walked. Looking down, Ranma verified that, yup, 'he' was
definitely still a she.

Stopping once again, she closed her eyes and put all of her
thoughts towards turning back into a male. *I will turn male, I
will turn male, I will turn male,* she started thinking in a mantra.
After a couple minutes of concentration with no success, she opened
her eyes to see everyone staring at her. She tried to think of why,
when she heard some kid tug on her mother's dress. "Why's that girl
saying she wanna turn into a guy, Momma?"

Ranma's cheeks turned crimson as she made a desperate jump to
the roof. Incidentally, people started moving down below. Jumping
35 feet was much more normal than finding girls who were muttering
about wanting to be guys.

On route back to the Tendo Dojo, Ranma cursed the name
Tsunami. "Baka princess. 'It'll give you control over your curse',
she says," Ranma sneered while scrunching her face up in a manner
that was supposed to be condescending. All it actually succeeded in
doing was making her even more cute than usual. "I swear, when I get
my hands on her..."

"Akane boot you out again, Ranchan," she heard Ukyo shout
from down below. Sure enough, she was near Ucchan's Okonomyaki.
Ranma debated on whether he should head home or stop to talk to her,
when her stomach growled.

"If you want, I can whip you up a deluxe okonomyaki."

Ukyo blinked as she felt a sudden breeze. Turning so she
could see her restaurant, she saw Ranma already waiting quietly by
the door. Grinning, Ukyo made her way to the door. Things were
turning out pretty well today.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Ramia could be seen frowning, as she flopped onto her bed.
*How in the world did Tsunami get picked to be Juraihelm's heir? I
mean, it's Tsunami, the ultimate airhead!!! Geesh. There's no
telling what kind of damage she might end up doing!*

Ramia tried to come up with a solution. She absentmindedly
beckoned to a floating crystal that was about twice the size of a her
head. It sputtered to life and slowly made it's way toward her.

As soon as it reached her, Ramia snapped her fingers. Turning
towards the crystal, she started whispering in a slow, quiet voice.
"I call upon the crystal of Juraihelm. Show me the way that I may
claim this realm." *Stupid incantations. Hmmph.*

A picture started to appear within the crystal. It was rather
blurry at first, but started to clear up after a couple of moments.
However, she wished she could turn it off once it did clear up. She
smacked it in the side. "That's a picture of Tsunami's chosen one,
you dolt. I want to get RID of her, not help her."

The crystal grew a pinkish color in it's background. Ramia
wondered if it might actually be blushing. She discounted that when
it rushed forward and bumped into her forehead. She made a side-note
not to anger the all powerful crystal.

Grabbing the edge of the bed, she hoisted herself up and
stared back into the crystal. On a second look, Tsunami's kid was
just on the edge. The main image seemed to be focused on a girl that
was across from him.

Studying the image and the little details that gave away her
background (a.k.a. Big battle spatula), she started to smile. Maybe
things wouldn't be so bad after all.


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Ranma finished his third deluxe okonomyaki with a flourish
that only a Saotome family member could hope to accomplish.

"Hey, Ucchan, thanks again for the water and food," he said
as he got up and headed for the door.

"Wait up, Ranchan. I was just about to close up anyway,
since there's nobody here. Maybe I can walk home with you?" she said
as she finished making sure that her grill was off and grabbed her
battle spatula.

Ranma stood there in indecision. *Bring Ukyo, don't bring
Ukyo. Bring Ukyo, don't bring Ukyo. Friendship, beat up by Akane.
Be kind to a cute girl who offers great food, be kind to a cute girl
that shoves toxic substances down my throat.* Ranma grinned at her.
"Sounds good ta me."

Ranma headed outside, then bunched his legs up, getting
ready to hop to a nearby roof when he felt a hand on his shoulder.
"How about doing this the normal way? It's getting a little chilly
for rooftop racing."

Ranma turned around and shrugged. The cold never bothered
him all that much. At least, not since he swam to and from China.
Now THAT was cold.

They walked together, side by side, in companionable silence.
It wasn't the first time that Ranma enjoyed silence, but it never
felt as good or comfortable as it did with Ucchan.

A couple of blocks from the dojo, Ukyo stopped. "I better
get back. No need to get Akane mad at you." *Or me,* she thought to
herself.

Ranma bowed then gave her his characteristic smirk. "Always
great to walk home with a good looking girl."

Ukyo blushed before she could turn away. "Thanks," she
mumbled, then started running back to her restaurant.

The smirk never left his face as Ranma started the last leg
of his trip.

*crash*

Shampoo looked down to see what she'd crashed into. Seeing
Ranma stuck underneath her front tire, she gave out a squeal of joy,
threw her bike off to the side and her take out container high into
the air. "Wo de airen, Ranma," she gushed, glomping Ranma.

Ranma tried, unsuccessfully, to push her away. Not only was
he having trouble breathing, but knowing his luck...

"RANMA!!!!," could be heard throughout Nerima. People who
were eating put down their utensils and bowed their heads in prayer
for this Ranma. From the sounds of it, he'd need all the help he
could get.

Ranma slowly turned his head around. Sure enough, Akane was
behind him and glowing a very unhealthy shade of blue. Well,
unhealthy for him, anyway.

"Akane, wait, I can explain," he said, still trying to push
off Shampoo, who seemed totally oblivious to his impending doom.

"No need to explain. You vanish for several hours, than show
up with Shampoo clinging to your leg," Akane yelled. "It's perfectly
clear!!! What could you possibly say to those facts?"

"Ummm...I was framed?"

"Ranma no baka," Akane screamed as booted him into orbit.

*This day just keeps getting better and better,* he thought
as he glided through the air. Looking at the height and trajectory,
it'd be a half hour minimum before he was able to get back. Oh well,
it was always beautiful up here. Plus, unlike some fiancées he could
name, birds tended to listen.

As if to prove his point, a exotic looking red bird flew up
to him and landed on his shoulder. Just as he was starting to speak
to it, it started to peck at his head. *Nope. Definitely not a good
day. Then again, don't see how it could get any worse.*


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Ukyo sat down on a bench, going over the day's events. She'd
actually been able to spend time with Ranma!!! Then again, did it
really matter? She was hardly ever able to see him outside of school
anymore...

She continued pondering her Ranma problems, when she noticed
a beautiful bird looking at her from atop a tree branch. She'd never
seen anything like it before, such a bright red, and those eyes...
those eyes...

Then, the world went black. Moments later Ukyo was replaced
by a girl with blonde hair and a rather daring purple and black two
piece dress. Pixy Misa smiled. Today was going to be fun. In fact,
she could sense the perfect playmates nearby. Pixy Misa's smile
turned feral.


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Ranma was once again found herself in her female form as she
entered the last stretch homeward. Why was it that every time he was
sent into on these little trips he landed in water? Did he really
piss the kami off that much?!

Ranma paused as she heard a commotion nearby. Knowing the
two of them, Akane and Shampoo were probably still fighting with each
other. As usual, she'd have to break them up. Ranma sighed as she
started to break into a run.

What she saw when she rounded the corner was the last thing
she expected. There were two huge, ugly, green...creatures in front
of the dojo. From the looks of things, they were really enjoying
their fight. Wait, scratch that. They were enjoying a game of
patti-cake. Only problem was that occasionally one of them would
fall over and destroy something. All around were broken fences,
light poles, and power lines.

Ranma went up to one of them and tapped them on it's leg. No
need to be rude. Maybe they were good monsters. "Could you guys
stop? You're kinda trashin' the whole neighborhood."

The creature bent over and Ranma got into a fighting stance
in preparation. No way was this....

She found herself in a bear hug before she even realized the
creature moved. Not only that, but it rivaled Shampoo at her worst.
*Gotta get out...*

"Oh ho ho ho," was heard coming from the side. Ranma turned
her head, expecting to see Kodachi, but instead was treated to the
site of a new girl. She couldn't turn her head far enough to see the
girl that well, but knew she wasn't Kodachi. Kodachi never wore
anything like that!!

"I see you've met my luv luv monsters. It looks like they're
quite happy to see you. In fact, I'd wager that they'll love you to
death, and the only one that can save you is that magical girl, the
so called Pretty Ranko. Too bad she's nowhere to be found. "

Ranma groaned as she heard this. Looking at the evidence,
she had to concede. There was no way she could fight these things
without some help. They were just too fast.

She used every ounce of her strength and was able to break
free. Before they could have a chance to grab her again, she ran
into an alley and...and...where's that blasted wand?

The rod appeared in her hands almost as soon as she
visualized the horrific pink atrocity. Sighing, she realized that
there was no way to get out of what was going to happen.

"Pretty Princess Makeup Activation," she muttered. Sure
enough, she was thrown up into the air and slowly spun around as her
'battle costume' formed around her. *Isn't this supposed to take a
shorter amount of time then it did before?*

Ranko fell back to the earth and got ready to run when she
heard a voice behind her. "Pretty Ranko. Are you ready for your
first battle?"

A chill ran up Ranko's spine as she slowly turned around.
She'd heard that voice before.

Ranko got ready to run as fast as she could, after seeing the
cabbit, when she realized a couple of things. First off, she wasn't
freaked out. It was just like a bad memory. And second, that thing
wasn't a cat. Close though. Very, very close.

"Yeah, yeah. World is in danger, blah, blah, blah," she
grumbled.

"Yes, go get them. The magical attacks should be in your
head, ready to use."

Ranko nodded, as she ran out the alley. Time to get down to
business.

"Stop. In the name of love and justice and all innocent lamp
posts, you shall be punished." Ranma groaned as she finished her
speech. Where did that come from?

Both of the monsters turned around and tried to attack her.
This time around, they seemed to be a bit slower. They were still
fast, but this time it was like fighting Ryoga. *Umm...then again,
maybe not,* she thought to herself as she finished a kick to one of
their heads. It was a clean hit. Problem was, her leg bounced off,
almost as if she'd hit a pillow.

"Use your magic, Pretty Ranko," Ryo-ohki yelled from the
sidelines.

Jumping back a couple paces she raised her baton into the
air, shouting the first thing that came to her mind. "Sugar Glitter
Attack," she shouted. A spout of pinkish dust came from her wand and
struck the creature, causing it to shrink back into the form of Akane.

Ranko blinked. It wasn't that the creature turned into
Akane. It wasn't even the fact that the attack actually worked. No,
what really hit Ranko was how lame her attack was. Sugar Glitter
Attack?! *Beware, enemies of good. Quake in your boots at the fear
of...pixy dust.*

She searched her mind for anything better. She gulped as she
got ready to perform the least humiliating/ insane attack she could
find. It was pretty sad, really.

She dropped her wand to the floor then pirouetted around.
Sticking one hand on her hip, she kissed the other and made as if she
was going to blow the monster a kiss. Instead, she whispered, in a
low sultry voice, "Sexy lips parade." A row of lips shot out from
her hand, one after the other, and hit the creature square in the
chest, making it revert back into Shampoo.

Ranko jumped as cheers went up all around her. Looking
around, she noticed that there was a sizable crowd watching the
display she just gave. She blushed and was about ready to yell at
some of the boys she noticed staring at her a little too hard, when
she heard a voice off to her right side.

Turning around she saw her. The perfect girl!! That lush
blonde hair. That sexy two piece dress. Those cute pouting lips.
Why didn't any of her fiancées look like that?

Pixy Misa, however wasn't thinking about love. Here, this
girl had come along and ruined her fun. She was assured that it
would be an easy victory. She was told that Pretty Ranko wouldn't
even be likely to show up, but nooo, she had to not only show up, but
use such powerful attacks. Grrrr.

"Mark my words, Ranko. This isn't over. It's only just
beginning and next time I'll be sure to program my monsters to dodge,"
she said. She looked at Ranko, expecting her to cower in fear. *Why
did her pupils turn into hearts? Oh no...it couldn't be. Is she
going to attack?* Pixy Misa's eyes grew twice as big, then she ran
away as quickly as possible.

Ranko tried to call out to her, but she just seemed to
increase her speed. *Drats,* she thought, snapping her fingers.

Ranko jumped up to a nearby rooftop and ran to the nearest
secluded alley, where she changed back into her regular form.

"That was pretty good, Ranko," she heard Ryo-Ohki call out
from behind her. She still got a chill, but she knew she could stand
it. After all, she didn't panic before, since she found out it wasn't
a cat.

She saw that small furry body, with the long whiskers
sprouting from it's face, hunched over on four legs. Did I mention
the whiskers? "Aaaaaa," she screamed as she crashed through a nearby
wall.

Ryo-Ohki sighed. *Guess I'll have to stay away from
her...him...her unless she's transformed. *Things certainly are
interesting around that one.*


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Back in Juraihelm, Tsunami was watching the end of the battle
in her own crystal. As soon as it finished, a set of scales tipped
towards the right hand side. *Wonderful. One point for Ranko!!
Guess she wasn't such a bad choice after all.*

She clapped her hands, then turned towards Ramia and gave her
a hug. "Isn't it great, Ramia? Good has triumphed!"

"Yeah, yeah. Great. Real, real great," Ramia mumbled.
*Shoot me now.*


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Ukyo woke up on the park bench she been resting on earlier.
*Must've fallen asleep. Hmmm....I wonder why I'm still so tired.
Guess I better get back home so I can go to bed.*


End Chapter 2.

Authors Notes: Well, it's finally done. A good portion was written
while I was half asleep. *yawn* Take it with a grain of salt.
Plus, I tried to incorporate an actual plot, while keeping a definite
sense of humor, which became more prominent towards the end. As is,
I know I can make it at least six episodes long. However, I imagine
it will be quite a bit longer than that, if people actually want to
see it continued.
