Ranma 1/2 Fan Fiction / Sailor Moon Fan Fiction / Tenchi Muyo Fan Fiction ❯ Project II: Saiyan Ranma ❯ Mallets and Saiyans Don't Mix ( Chapter 2 )

Urd sighed. Being knowledgeable in the past was supposed to be easy for a goddess of the past, but, someone like Urd, who spent most of her time brewing love potions, was very relieved that Ranma was not a nobody when it came to fighting; quite knowledgeable in discipline, confidence, and grace. His Saiyan body just made him stronger, faster and even more aware of his surroundings. Urd found out in her two days that Ranma wasn't just a good looking guy. He was the most arrogant, over confident, and downright annoying to her, which she loved about him. Three days since Urd taught him how to use his powers. In skill, he was already the best for his age. He also was able to control his strength and speed, which too powerful for normal human beings. But, there are some things that Ranma still needed to know...

 

“AAAHHH!!!” Ranma screamed as he fell down faster. Urd shook her head.

 

“Ranma, don't fear! You can do it!”

 

SPLASH!!!

 

Urd dropped her face. How the hell can he be able to master just a simple technique?

 

“Ranma,” Urd began. “I can't see why you can't do it...”

 

Ranma, who's face was already in view, complained. “Hey! How am I supposed to know how to fly? I'm human!”

 

“No, you're not,” Urd replied. “You're a saiyan! Saiyans fly! All you have to do is focus!”

 

“I don't care what you say!” Ranma said. “How can I fly without wings?”

 

“Oh stop whining like a girl!” Urd replied.

 

“WHAT!?” And Ranma jumped up high in the air, and faced Urd. “I'm a GUY!”

 

Urd giggled. “Congratulations. You just flew...”

 

“Wha—“ Ranma looked at his feet. It was true. He was flying in mid-air. “Gee... Thanks.”

 

“I'm your sensei, what else do you expect?” Urd said. “Well, since you can fly now, you'll have to learn how to move when you are in the air...”

 

“WHEEE!” Ranma said, zooming all over the place.

 

Urd sweat drop. “Okay, we can skip that part. So, wanna fly all the way home?”

-Chapter 2: Mallets and Saiyans Don't Mix-

 

Urd watched Ranma fly around with his new clothes. They were like his Chinese ones, but he picked orange instead of red as the color of his shirt. Also, his black pants were no longer tied in his shoes. They were loosely fit. His shoes weren't the regular Chinese ones. He picked something which resembled a boot. The reason for the change in fashion, Ranma didn't know. But for the new clothes... well, let's just say that when Ranma woken up, he was stark naked.

 

They were halfway towards Japan already, and he still didn't seem to get tired. Urd, on the other hand, had her mana drained. Oh how she felt like wanting another bottle of sake.

 

During their three days in training, Urd had to use considerable amounts of mana to teleport him from Hong Kong to the mountain valleys of Jusendo. They were careful enough not to cause too much attention since the Phoenix People were quite territorial. The fourth day, the day after Ranma learned how to control his flying ability, Urd proposed that he'd try out how far he can fly. Ooh, it was more harder on her than Ranma.

 

“Come on, Urd!” Ranma said. “I can see Japan already!”

 

“Yeah...” Urd said. “Wanna race, squirt?”

 

“Alright, ya old hag!” Ranma replied. “GO!” and he flew faster towards Japan.

 

In the three day training, Ranma was able to find out what hit her nerve. Urd returned the same favor and started calling him a squirt. They avoided the really bad ones, which were `Old Bag' and `Girl'.

 

Urd gave herself also a boost as she accelerated, trying to catch Ranma. “I'll get you for that...”

 

=Washu's Lab=

 

(Hmm... that's weird...) Washu thought. (It's coming to Japan... And what is this other energy source?)

 

=Time Gate=

 

Setsuna squinted her eyes. The power of the Saiyan is nearing Japan. She smiled. If it was going there, she could use the assistance of the Senshi to help her investigate if there was really a Saiyan. Maybe it's a mistake, since after all, Crystal Tokyo is still very much alive.

 

(All we can do is wait...) she thought.

 

=Near a temple, Japan=

 

“OOPPS!” Keichii said, tripping over the rock, and fell right on top off Belldandy.

 

The two love birds were alone for the moment. Skuld had an assignment in town, and she had a few bugs to fix. She brought in Banpei for this, so literally, nothing is stopping Keichii and Belldandy from doing anything.

 

Belldandy suggested that they walk around the temple, which Keichii readily agreed. It was one of those awkward moments where the boy falls on top of the girl. It happened before, and Keichii was about to kiss her when they first moved in, just to be interrupted by Megumi, Keichii's younger sister.

 

Keichii looked at his beloved's eye. It was so beautiful, so enchanting. He resolved. He came inching his face near hers, and the lips would almost touch. Belldandy didn't stop the attempt. She too, relaxed, and waited for the kiss.

 

Closer... closer...

 

BBBBOOOOOOMMM!!!!

 

“What in the world...?!” Keichii said, looking a few meters in his left. Dust was around and he couldn't get a clear view on what

 

“OLD HAG!” said a voice.

 

“COME HERE YOU SQUIRT!” said a feminine voice.

 

“Oh, Urd, you finally came!” Belldandy said, standing up.

 

The sounds stopped, and the dust settled. Keichii almost laughed at the scene. There was Urd, her hair was like being yanked from the boy, and Urd was returning the favor. She was yanking his tail. Waitaminute! Tail?

 

“Uh... hi sis!” Urd said. “Uh, Ranma, let go of me...”

 

“You let go of me first, you old hag!” Ranma retorted.

 

“Why you!!”

 

“Urd! He's a guest!” Belldandy said gently. The two figures stopped wrestling each other already.

 

Urd and Ranma stood up. “Sorry,” they both said.

 

“Now, Urd, calm down. Um, excuse me, who are you?” Belldandy asked.

 

“He's Ranma,” Urd said, with a hint of pride in her voice. “He's my student, and a Saiyan!” and she quickly covered her mouth. She forgot to tell her sisters that her assignment was training a saiyan. She nervously looked at Belldandy, waiting for her reaction. Sure, Saiyans were considered evil. They even gave some kamis a run for their money... But Ranma was different. Urd knew it.

 

“Oh...” Belldandy replied, smiling and bowing politely at Ranma. “That explains the tail. Nice to meet you,” she said.

 

Urd fell down. That was not the reaction she expected.

 

=Inside the house=

 

“Uh... Belldandy,” Urd began to ask her sister. The two goddesses were in the kitchen, while Keichii and Ranma were in the living room, talking. “Saiyan... you know, someone who can destroy a planet? You okay with it?”

 

“Of course I'm okay with it,” Belldandy said. “Why are you so worried? If Kami-sama trusts you to train him, I trust your trust in him. And he has a soul full of goodness. He has such a big heart...”

 

Urd sighed. “Wow sis. You're full of trusts. Even your sentences have a lot of trust in it.” She joked. Privately, she thanked her sister's understanding. Other gods and goddesses would go into battle stance already, seeing a young saiyan.

 

“But you know, you have to tell Skuld...” Belldandy said. “She does have a tendency to...”

 

“Tadaima!” Skuld greeted her voice outside the kitchen. “Whew, tough work. All those bugs appear out of nowhere...” and then, a pause, then a scream. “YYYAAAAHHHH! SAIYAN!”

 

POW!

 

“Ow you little brat!” Ranma's voice came. “CUT IT OUT!”

 

“EEK! ONEESAN! MONSTER! HERE! STOP!”

 

“OW! OW! Keichii! Help!”

 

Urd smiled. Looks like the two couples will get along quite well.

 

BBBOOOOMMM!

 

(Or, maybe not...) Urd said as she opened the door, to see the whole place bombed. She ran towards the grounds, and saw a scene which was comical to say the least. Ranma was doing his best to tick the young goddess off by making faces.

 

“NEO-SKULD BOMB!” Skuld shouted, throwing a nasty looking ball. Ranma jumped in the air and put his finger in the base of his eye, and brought his tounge out.

 

“NEH!” he mouthed. “Brat can't get me! Brat can't get me!”

 

In response, Skuld threw more and more bombs. The garden was beginning to look like the moon surface, and Ranma was making more faces. Finally, Skuld broke. She took out what looked like a meteor sized bomb, and everything stopped.

 

Ranma looked at the young goddess with a nervous face. “Uh... You're not going to use that... right?”

 

In response, she smirked. Then, with a loud scream, she was going to flung it when...

 

“Everyone, lunch!” Belldandy's voice was heard.

 

“FOOD! YEY!” Ranma said as he dashed towards the door, where he was held up by Urd in his collar.

 

“What did I say about manners...?” Urd said. Part of her job was to train Ranma in being polite, and well behaved and have table manners. She later concluded that doing that was impossible.

 

“Um... if there is sake, grab it?” Ranma said innocently, remembering the embarrassing incident in China where she turned three tables just to grab the bottle of sake, and breaking it when she did get it.

 

“Why you little...”

 

“Whoa! Look!” Ranma said, looking at the newly restored living room. Somehow, Belldandy was able to repair the living room, and Skuld just glared at Ranma, who in turn, glared back.

 

Urd sighed. Everything was going to plan... (I think...)

 

“You are not welcomed here, you monster!” Skuld shouted.

 

“Urd, can you tell this brat to shut up? I'm want to eat...” Ranma said.

 

“WHAT DID YOU CALL ME?” Skuld shouted.

 

“Skuld, leave Ranma alone... Ranma, sorry about my sister... She usually is a very good girl,” Belldandy said. She wiped the small circular table and put the tray in it. Behind her was Keichii, helping her bring the food.

 

“Hmph,” Urd snorted. “Good only when she's alone with you...”

 

“No one asked your opinion, you SECOND CLASS goddess!” Skuld retorted. “And what is this Saiyan doing here?”

 

Ranma looked at Skuld. He smirked, “What is this uncute tomboy doing here?”

 

“What did you say?!!” Skuld exclaimed.

 

“Skuld, please calm down,” Belldandy said. “Ranma here,” and she pointed at Ranma “is our new guest. Kami-sama told Urd to watch over him, to be able to control his powers. Right?”

 

Urd, who was already digging in, nodded with her mouth full.

 

Skuld snorted. “Anyone who needs watching over is Urd...” she said. “See, even the monster copies her style, and even worse!” she pointed at Ranma, who was eating normally [scooping food in his mouth like a machine gun].

 

“At least I'm not a kawaikune tomboy!” Urd retorted. “I'm a real woman!”

 

“If you are an ideal woman,” Skuld replied, her smile evident that she's going to insult Urd... again. “Then maybe you should join with this monster. I'd think you'd make a great couple.”

 

Urd laughed. “I hope so! His muscles... his abdomen, his chest, his thighs... Ooohhh. Too bad a kawaikune tomboy don't appreciate a real man.”

 

“Why you...” Skuld began, and Ranma used this opportunity to steal two pickles from each of their plates. But before he could eat the four pickle pieces, someone grabbed his head. He looked up and saw Skuld and Urd looking at him... Ok, glaring is more like it.

 

“What...” Urd began “are you doing?”

 

Ranma smiled nervously. “Nothing?” he replied innocently.

 

POW! BOINK! OW! GET OFF! OUCH! COME HERE! YAHHH!

 

Keichii looked at his bowl, with waterfall tears in his eyes, and his bowl cracked. “Cant I have a normal day?”

 

=Juuban=

 

It was another peaceful day...

 

“USAGI! GIVE ME BACK MY MANGA!” a shout emitted by a shinto shrine; quite weird, especially when the one who shouted was supposed to be a calm, friendly shrine maiden.

 

“Don't those two ever give up?” Minako asked Makoto. The brunette just shook her head.

 

“B-but I didn't finish them!” Usagi said.

 

“You're hogging everything!” Rei shouted again, although more softly this time. “Finish the pile you have first before taking mines!”

 

Ami was reading her books again. The Outers, except Setsuna, were watching the scene with mild interest, although Hotaru was on her toes if someone would get injured. Ass Haruka always told her in private; `The Inners, especially the princess have one of the hardest heads in the world'.

 

Michiru were inclined to agree. There was the princess, right in front of them, making an ass out of herself. At least Rei was acting like a Martian; short-tempered and vengeful, and full of wrath. Kinda like her mother [in the Silver Millenium]

 

“Sigh... some things never change...” said a voice in the background. Everyone jumped and looked behind them. There was Setsuna, the reason why they all grouped together.

 

“You know, you should teach us how to do that...” Ami said, looking up for the first time to Setsuna. “At least we'll know when you'll be appearing.”

 

Setsuna didn't smile. Well, she rarely smiled, so it's not that unusual. She spoke to them. “I detected something abnormal...” she began.

 

Haruka put on her number 02 scowl [threat-to-the-timeline-scowl] and asked Setsuna, “Is it a threat?”

 

Setsuna shrugged. “I'm not sure. Crystal Tokyo is alive and well... It's just that I detected a Saiyan in this world...”

 

Ami gasped. “A saiyan?!”

 

Everyone looked at Ami and Setsuna. “What's a Saiyan?” Hotaru asked.

 

“Zzzzz...” Usagi snored. Rei looks at her and get about three thick mangas, curls them to a ball, and whacks Usagi hard in the head. “OW!”

 

“Listen!” Rei said.

 

“Saiyan... is an ancient race of... killers,” Ami began. “Terrible creatures. They are not from our Solar System. And it was rumored they had the power to destroy planets...”

 

“Exactly...” Setsuna said, glad that someone in the Inners had brains. “I located it's energy signature somewhere in Japan. It's being cloaked by some unknown force. I think that this Saiyan has powerful allies as well in Japan.”

 

Haruka cracked her knuckles. “Alright! I've been getting bored by the lack of enemies, this might be what I need.”

 

Hotaru looked nervous though. The Saiyan had the power like hers, only maybe that this Saiyan wouldn't hesitate in killing this world.

 

Setsuna sighed. “Like I said, it's not a threat. Not yet, but he can be. I'm not sure. I'd rather investigate if what I detected was true, or some mistake I did. I hope it's the latter.”

 

Rei looked around. Everyone was just as nervous as her. Maybe except Haruka, who was telling Michiru what she'd do if she saw a Saiyan.

 

“How do we know what a Saiyan looks like?” Minako said.

 

Setsuna looked at the Senshi of Love. “I fought with one before... He looked human... and had a tail...”

 

“Tail?” asked Makoto incredulously.

 

“Setsuna-mama, did you beat it?” Hotaru asked.

 

“No... He beat me, and left me to live...” Setsuna said quietly.

 

=Back to Ranma=

 

“Ahh... that was sooo good...” Ranma said, finishing off the rice in his plate. He watched Skuld and Urd fighting with their chopsticks as swords as they tried to get the last piece of plum.

 

“MINE!” “MINE!” “MINE!” “MINE!”

 

Ranma just took his chopsticks, took the plum and ate it. Two pairs of eyes went straight toward him. Ranma began to sweat. He began looking for an escape, but Urd was already powering up with her lightning, and Skuld had her mallet ready. Then, to his relief, the phone rang.

 

“Urd, please get the phone...” Belldandy said from the kitchen.

 

Urd, still glaring at Ranma, stood up and left. Ranma sighed in relief. He looked up, and saw Skuld still with her mallet. He began to sweat again. Truth to be told, the skinny girl could swing it. It hurt him too. He was, yet again saved by Belldandy, who came in with some cakes she just baked. Skuld ignored him and began to clap as she commented her sister of her baking. It was a strawberry cake, each slice with a fresh strawberry on top.

 

She gave each of them a plate with a slice of cake. Ranma's proportion was double, and he appreciated gracefully. He took the strawberries first, and ate it with gusto. The sourness and sweetness balanced each other and he found it very tasty. He began to regret eating all his strawberries, but maybe he could steal one from Skuld. She wasn't eating hers.

 

With his fast speed, he quickly swiped the strawberry and before he could put it in his mouth, Skuld planted her mallet firmly in his head.

 

“Skuld!” Belldandy exclaimed.

 

“He started it!” Skuld replied. “He took my strawberry!”

 

Ranma raised his head, seeing his cake ruined. His head landed neatly in the cake he was about to eat.

 

“WHAT DID YOU DO THAT FOR?!” Ranma bellowed.

 

“Serves you right for eating my strawberry!”

 

“Kawaikune...” Ranma muttered. Skuld heard it and was about to swing her mallet again when she heard a scream.

 

“NO! YOU CAN'T DO THAT!” It was Urd.

 

A moment later, she walked in, frowning. “What did I do... What did I do to deserve this fate...?”

 

“What is it Urd?” Belldandy asked.

 

Urd looked at Ranma. “Kami-sama told me something...”

 

“What is it?” Ranma asked.

 

“You're going to school...” Urd replied.

 

“School?” Ranma asked incredulously. “Why? I mean, I learn a lot from you...”

 

Skuld snorted.

 

“Kami-sama says you need your education. He wants you to rejoin the world as a educated man...” Urd replied.

 

“So? What's wrong, Urd?” Ranma asked. “Why did you scream if that's all Kami-sama wants...?”

 

“Kami-sama wants me to come with you,” Urd said. “He wants me to watch over you...”

 

“And...?”

 

“I'm going to be your classmate...” Urd finally said, shoulders slumping in defeat. “Why should I go to school?”

 

Skuld laughed and rolled on the floor. “Oh-hahaha! Old bag will go to school!”

 

Urd narrowed her eyes, but it seems the weight of going to school was heavier. She didn't respond.

 

“Someone's coming in tomorrow...” Urd said. “I don't know who, but he or she will give our documents, all processed. They also moved you out of the Saotome registry. You have a new name...”

 

Ranma wasn't bothered by this. He was much more curious about the school he and Urd was going to attend. “Uh... Urd, do you know where this school is?”

 

Urd put a finger in her chin, thinking. “Hmmm... Oh yes! Now I remember. It's Furinkan High, in Nerima.”

 

“Sounds interesting...” Ranma said.

 

Oh Ranma, you have no idea...

 

To be continued...
