Ranma 1/2 Fan Fiction / Sailor Moon Fan Fiction / Tenchi Muyo Fan Fiction ❯ Project II: Saiyan Ranma ❯ Final Confrontation ( Chapter 10 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

Setsuna was shaking, something which was very abnormal for her, and the other Senshi's were a bit frightened by her.
 
They were all in Rei's Temple Grounds, meeting again. The Inners looked a bit better after Ami told them that Ranma could be alive, and Setsuna herself called the meeting.
 
“Setsuna-mama,” Hotaru began, “What's wrong?”
 
“Everything is wrong...” Setsuna began. Everyone was all-ears. “I thought we killed him, but it seems that he is alive...”
 
“That's great!” Minako exclaimed, but shut her mouth when Haruka glared at her.
 
“Crystal Tokyo is very much alive even though it was at less degree, the other timelines in which Crystal Tokyo did not exist came from one branch...” and she paused. Everyone looked tense. “In that branch, saw him, hands out in a weird fighting style, and around him were us, dead. There was blood in his hands. WE have to destroy him, before it happens!” Setsuna declared.

Urd fluttered her eyes, and looked up in the ceiling. She knew she wasn't dead, but where was she?
 
“So, the infamous Goddess of Love awakens...” a voice said on her left. Urd looked at that direction.
 
“T-Tsunami?” Urd asked, incredulous. “But... but, I thought...”
 
Tsunami smiled. “I took the body of a young child when she was in grave danger, and right now, I've been living in an off dimension when I'm not needed... There will be a time though that I need to combine with the child and I'd regain a physical body. So, Urd, how you're student?”
 
Urd smiled. “Ahh, so you heard?”
 
“Of course I heard! And I saw it too! You're saiyan student beat a Juraian Royalty and the famous Space Pirate Ryoko!”
 
“Yup! That's my Ranma alright! All go, no hold!” Urd exclaimed. “Damn, I missed those old days... Uh, wait a minute, where is Ranma?”
 
Tsunami let her head fall. “No!” Urd said. “He couldn't be...”
 
“He's at Washu's lab...” Tsunami replied. Urd took a moment to let that sink in.
 
(Ranma's not dead!) Urd thought excitedly, but... “If he is at Washu's lab, what's wrong?”
 
“A fate worse than death... I'm kind of surprised that Washu wasn't even remotely interested on my appearance...” Tsunami replied.
 
“Uh, who's Washu?” Urd asked, realizing that she didn't know who Washu was.
 
=Washu's Lab=
 
“I am the greatest scientific genius in the whole world! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!” Washu laughed her head, and began typing like mad.
 
“Washu... please, I can really be a good demonstrator... You don't have to hit me with... AAAGGHH! Not that metallic wall again!”
 
BAAM! Pause... “OOOOWWWW!”
 
Washu put a hand on her chin, and studied the boy in front of her. “Hmm, sturdy muscular body, able to survive titanium reinforced platinum beta which can be found in most advanced spaceship walls... Maybe I should ask Ryo-ohki to come and wham herself to this guy...”
 
“Washu... I mean Washu-chan,” Ranma panicked. He never met anyone as crazy as this 12 year old girl. Even the Kuno's would be put to shame. “I can really demonstrate my capabilities...”
 
Washu ignored him. “Let's see his elasticity...”
 
“What are you doing... AAAAGGGGHHH! HHHEEEELLLLPPP!!!!”
 
Washu continued to study the saiyan who was now being stretched by the bindings in his hands. “Hmm... Very interesting... I should thank the heavens for sending me such a beautiful sample! It is a gift from up above!” and she stared in the sky, with tears glistening in her eyes. If others saw this, they would panic and leave, and Ranma was one of them.
 
“Now, after that, we can do this, that, everything I plan...” and she continued talking about other materials she can test on. “Oh, and look at his tail! Let's see...”
 
“NO! WASHU-CHAN! NOT MY TAIL! HELP! HELP! OWWWWWWW!!!!”
 
=Masaki household=
 
Ayeka groaned as she woke up with a headache. She couldn't believe it, she lost to a saiyan, now the world will have to suffer... (Wait a minute, I'm alive...)
 
She stood up suddenly, and groaned. Her headache became even more apparent, and she slid back down. Suddenly, she heard a groan beside her.
 
“Damn saiyan, I never knew he was that good...” Ryoko said. “Kicked my butt, he did... We would have been able to win if the brat didn't get knocked out at once...”
 
“Are you implying something?” Ayeka asked.
 
“Maybe...” Ryoko groaned.
 
“Why you...!!!”
 
And they heard something in the kitchen. “SASAMI!” Ayeka shouted and rushed towards the kitchen, Ryoko following closely behind. “SASAMI, WE ARE HERE TO... rescue you... What the...? What is going on?”
 
In the kitchen, Ayeka and Ryoko stared dumbly at the scene. Sasami was laughing as Urd told her story on how she met Ranma, how they met, and the adventures they shared. Even with the festival and ice cream store.
 
“Which reminds me, I did see you in the ice cream store right?” Urd asked. Sasami nodded. “Well, Ranma's tail is a bit sensitive. You can tickle him to death with just his tail. He even washes it with pride!”
 
“YOU!” Ayeka screamed.
 
Urd looked at Ayeka and frowned. “What are you screaming about?”
 
“You were the one with the saiyan! Where is he?!” Ayeka almost yelled.
 
“Jeez, you brat, didn't you learn how to brush you're teeth?” Urd said, with a mock frown, waving her hand around her mouth. Ryoko laughed. She began to like this one.
 
“EXCUSE ME?!” Ayeka shouted.
 
“Ayeka-neesan,” Sasami began. “It's alright. Tsunami says they are friendly...”
 
“F-friendly? A saiyan? Make me laugh!” Ayeka said.
 
Suddenly, the door of the kitchen opened. Tenchi, who was rudely awakened by the two amorous aliens, went back to sleep after they explosively left leaving a hole in his ceiling and now, he was wide awake, all because Ayeka was shouting about something.
 
Staring around him, Tenchi had to ask. “What did I miss?”
 
=Washu's Lab=
 
Ranma groaned. He took crap from his old man all in the sake of the art. Genma tortured him, made him learn secret techniques by pounding him, dropping him in a pit of cats, and even more crap, but all this was just a small portion on what Washu was doing to him.
 
He was literally begging her to stop, but all she did was laugh and input more data. “Very interesting... It seems you're body could withstand at least 500 degrees Celsius!”
 
“No! Don't pour that thing on me! AAAGGGHH! HOT HOT!”
 
“MWAHAHAHA! Extra strong cellular organization, even the hormones are more potent than the human hormones! My, how lucky you're wife would be... MWAHAHAHAHA!” Washu laughed. She stopped a minute, and looked at Ranma. “Well, my guinea pig, you are more interesting than the index studies I have about saiyans!”
 
Washu began to look at Ranma like she wanted him, whole. Ranma began to sweat.
 
“Anyway, next phase of our experiment is DNA extraction...” Washu extracted what looked like a BFN [Big F***ing Needle] and proceeded to try and stab Ranma with it. Ranma moved his body left and right since he was still restrained, but his actions seem excite Washu even more.
 
“Hold still!”
 
“Don't wanna!”
 
Washu's face looked from hunger, to excitement, to desperation, then finally to anger. “Fine then. If you don't like needles, then we'll use something else to extract DNA samples from you...” and she transformed.
 
Ranma's eyes widened. Washu became adult, in a nurse uniform and she had... gloves? “What are you going to do?” Ranma panicked.
 
“Why, extracting DNA of course,” Washu said, and proceeded to make a bee line towards Ranma's pants.
 
“EEP!! I'll take the needle! I'll take the needle!” Ranma said at once.
 
Washu smiled, and reverted back as a child, although she still had her nurse uniform. “That's a nice guinea pig. Now this wont hurt a bit...”
 
“AAAAAGGGGGHHHH!” SLAP! “Ouch...”
 
“Oh shut up, I'm not even holding the needle yet!”
 
=Near the Masaki Household, outside=
 
An energy beam came down towards the forest and when it hit the ground, it didn't explode. It vanished and revealed nine women and two cats.
 
“Artemis! I told you to stay!” Sailor Venus said. Artemis gulped and hid behind Luna.
 
“We just wanted to see just how powerful this saiyan is. In all our lives, we only met a few who were sent to the Moon Kingdom because of some diplomatic nature...” and Luna shivered. “They were... Brrr!”
 
Pluto spoke up. “It doesn't matter if they come or stay. This battle might be our last, so I want everyone to stay alert. This is no joke,” Pluto replied. “The saiyan won't hesitate in killing us, so we must do the same.”
 
Everyone began to argue a bit, but Pluto wasn't listening. She knew they would do what she says; especially when she said their lives were at stake. Again, she was lucky in finding at least a rough estimate on where the saiyan could be. With the woman with him again, it seems that they were cloaking his exact position, but with them so far away from the city, searching a forest wouldn't be too hard, especially when there is a house and a temple a few kilometers away.
 
=Washu's Lab=
 
Ranma sighed. After the DNA extraction method, which he had to admit didn't even hurt him a bit but wondered if Washu even sterilized it, Washu became more and more tolerable. She didn't hit him with metallic walls, or even thrown molten metals in high temperatures. Right now, she transported him to a place filled with white, and in front of him was a statue dummy.
 
“Okay, Ranma, all you have to do is easy. Try to hit him with punches, kicks and energy blasts,” Washu's voice said. “We'll start with punches.”
 
Ranma nodded, then became blur and Washu's mouth began to drool at the readings. Each punch grew with intensity and speed that the screen flashed error after a few seconds. Washu was impressed. Ranma was as strong as Ryoko, maybe even more!
 
The kicks came in like the punches and got the same error reading after a few seconds. Washu drooled even more.
 
“Okay Ranma, you are doing good, but I need a few adjustments to the power readings...” and Washu began to type even more furiously and added a few more zeroes in the reading scale. “Okay, let me see those energy blasts at full power! FULL POWER!”
 
Ranma shivered at the intensity of the voice. The girl was a maniac, can change to adult, and mental! But, he had to throw a very powerful blast, or else... Ranma shivered.
 
Ranma's aura flared up and became an intense flame around him. Washu moaned with pleasure [hey, are there any sickos in the house?] as the energy build up started to register in her computer. They were nearing the million place.
 
Ranma let the energy flow in his hands, and a ball of energy became bigger and bigger. “Kamehameha Ray!” Ranma said and released all the energy towards the statue.
 
Washu was crying with happiness as the energy readings enlarged at an astounding rate as the blast hit the dummy, and as the seconds tick, it was clear that the five zeroes Washu added was not enough, and her computer was beginning to smoke.
 
(All the research, all those years, I never experienced this...) Washu thought, and tears began to form. “This is beautiful...” and the whole computer exploded.
 
=Masaki Household=
 
“Let me get this straight,” Ayeka began, prancing around the room, who already gargled after Tenchi appeared. “You are a goddess, like Tsunami, and you were assigned to train the saiyan to control his powers... Why should we believe you?”
 
“Because if Sasami says that Tsunami vouches for Urd, than we have no choice but to trust her...” Katsuhito said. Ever since Tenchi woken up, he returned towards the kitchen and heard the gist about the saiyan. He became very interested, and unlike other royalties in Juraians, he was willing to give this Ranma a benefit of the doubt. “Ayeka, don't you trust our own goddess?”
 
Ayeka quieted down. She had an internal conflict. Saiyans are evil, yet Tsunami says he was alright.
 
BBBOOOOMMM!!!
 
“MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! COME BACK HERE MY LOVELY SAMPLE OF MAN AMONG MEN!”
 
Everyone drew a sweat drop.
 
The door of the kitchen opened and a blur came in and went behind Urd. Then came Washu with an assortment of condoms and latex gloves.
 
“Help!” Ranma said as he hid behind Urd. Washu tried to get to him, but Ranma used Urd as a shield. It was a funny scene. A teenage saiyan, hiding behind a woman, with a twelve year old girl chasing him. Ayeka giggled, then tried to stifled out her laughter, only to make the noise escape in her nose. She went to full blown laughter.
 
It took a while for everyone to calm down. Washu was particularly the hardest, and everyone could understand. Not even Tenchi would have been able to power up and destroy Washu's lab unless if it was directly done, but with the smell of Sasami's cooking, it got everyone to their seats, drooling, and who wouldn't?
 
It was an eventful lunch, as Ranma told some of his younger years in which Genma trained him. He kept the very gory details out, but said the funny ones, especially the funny names of some of his techniques like Hang-Onto-the-Ceiling-and-Hope-Nobody-Looks-Up and some failed exploits of Genma because Ranma threw a few stones at the sleeping dog. It kept Sasami's and everyone's attention.
 
Ayeka also began to see Ranma with a new light. He was good with kids, ate funnily, scared of a twelve year old, and he was cute to boot.
 
Ranma and Tenchi hit off at once, becoming all friendly with each other. After all, the only contact Tenchi had with other boys of his age were either during class, or when shopping outside. Katsuhito also liked Ranma. Sure, Ranma was a bit on the bragging side, but he did have a good side.
 
It was after lunch that Ranma offered his help in the kitchen, but Sasami wouldn't hear of it. After all, he was a guest, and didn't want him to be bothered. Ranma gave up and instead, walked with Urd.
 
“You okay Urd?” Ranma asked.
 
“Yeah, I'm fine,” Urd replied. “A few more bottles of sake and I'm as good as new...” She tried to stand up, but got so far. Ranma helped her up.
 
“You scared me there for a minute...” Ranma sighed.
 
“Afraid you'd lose me?” Urd sneered in a very friendly manner.
 
“Nah, I would miss those eyesores I'd get staring at you...” Ranma smirked.
 
BAM!
 
Urd fumed but inwardly, she smiled. “Well, whatever. We all age and die, and our bodies will never be perfect...” and she made a pose, tragic it was supposed to be, but all it did was put emphasis on her breast.
 
“Really?” Ranma smirked again; recovering from the slap Urd gave him. He looked at Urd with a look. “Hmm, it doesn't seem to apply to you...” Ranma said. “And you're... how old again?”
 
“WHAT DID YOU SAY?!” Urd began to shout. She felt her energy return and began to chase Ranma with a table around the grounds. Ranma laughed as he made faces at Urd. In the house, Katsuhito shook his head and sighed. Kami-sama, he missed those younger days...
 
“Neh, neh, neneneh!” Ranma said as he took his tongue out, but then, felt something very familiar. “What the...”
 
“I GOT YOU!” Urd shouted and dove towards Ranma, pinning him down. Ranma felt the wind knock out of him. He could have said that Urd was heavy, but there was something out there, watching him. He felt his danger sense tingle violently, and then, it happened.
 
“DEAD SCREAM!”
 
“Urd, watch out!” Ranma said as he pushed Urd off him, carried her and jumped away. His last position exploded violently. When Ranma landed, he tried to take in more air.
 
“Threat not only to the world, not only to Crystal Tokyo and the Timelines, but also threat to our lives, I shall not let you exist,” Pluto said, and the nine Sailor Senshi came to view.
 
“Oh crap, not you guys again!” Ranma moaned. He was having already a time of his life, and these suckers appear.
 
“For the sake of Love and Justice, we the Sailor Senshi shall stop you're evil, in the name, of the Moon!” and Sailor Moon did a pose. Ranma started to giggle, and Urd beside him also started to giggle. The Sailor Senshi became tense, and the two figures in front of them went rolling on the ground laughing. “HEY!”
 
“Sorry,” Ranma said. “Hey, if you guys don't attack me, I'll try to improve you're speeches... Maybe we should let Urd here help you laugh, especially the serious one with green hair... AHAHAHAHAHAAHA!” Ranma let out a laugh similar to Urd, and Urd laughed even harder.
 
“That's it!” Pluto said. “DIE!”
 
The Outers and Inners unleashed their attacks, and Ranma pushed out of the way. He jumped up high in the air and stayed there until he got a good look at his enemies. Uranus and Jupiter had some martial arts skill, but nowhere like Ranma's. Mars had a high potential in using Ki but on a weaker scale, and Saturn, well, she was something Ranma had to watch out for. The bad as pole she had could considerably do harm, and surprised Ranma that it was the same girl he met in the ice cream store. Sailor Moon could use all the help she needs, and Venus was busy trying to wrap him in what looked like chains with hearts...
 
(That's it!) Ranma thought, and let the chains approach him. The last moment, he took hold of the chains, and moved it with outstanding speed and hit the inners towards the trees. Ranma knew they would be out of commission for a while.
 
The Outers a bit more stronger than the Inners, but now Uranus and Neptune took out their weapons and their powers doubled. Pluto was still in the air, looking at the battle. She was waiting for the right time.
 
“SILENT GLAIVE SURPRISE!” Saturn said, and threw a beam out of her glaive towards Ranma. Ranma blurred and reached Saturn in a second, but didn't do anything. He just looked at her, then disarmed her. He focused on the other two Outers.
 
“SPACE SWORD BUSTER!” and Ranma dodged the attack.
 
“AQUA REFLECTOR!” and Ranma dodged the attack again, blurred, came in contact with Neptune. Uranus ran forward and tried to stab Ranma in the back, but disappeared a second before contact, and Neptune was shown the Sword of Uranus up front, pointing at her.
 
It would have stabbing her face if it wasn't for Ranma holding Uranus' wrist. With a swift motion, he disarmed Uranus and threw her to Neptune. Both heads came together and Ranma got a feeling of déjà vu. He smiled.
 
Pluto burst to action as she saw Ranma distracted. She teleported behind him, and powered up. Ranma felt a chill on his back and turned around. Too late.
 
“Take this...” Pluto said. “DEAD WHISPER!”
 
Instead of a ball of energy, it was a zigzagging bolt which Ranma felt had the energy of a hundred Dead Screams at once, plus what felt like Ayeka's attack.
 
Urd felt it too, and realized the higher form of magic Pluto was using, ran towards Ranma.
 
Time stopped a second just before contact, and Ranma's eyes widened as he felt he was being pushed out of the way. He glanced towards his side, and saw Urd and when time resumed, he almost screamed.
 
It hit Urd directly in the side and she flew towards the trees and hit them, hard. “URD!” Ranma shouted as he went back up and ran towards Urd. Pluto stood there in shock. She was sure she would have gotten the job done but the woman interfered again.
 
Ranma rushed to Urd. He could have hit himself. Why wasn't her more careful? When he found her, she was a mess. Her clothing was singed, and she had a few bruises. Worst of all, she wasn't breathing.
 
“Urd, wake up...” Ranma whispered. He gently shook her. “Urd wake up, I know you're just pretending...”
 
Pluto looked at Ranma with a look of curiosity. It was a shock that made her pause.
 
“WAKE UP!” Ranma started raising his voice. “COME ON, WAKE UP AND SLAP ME FOR BEING NOISY... please...” and he held her closer to him.
 
Ryoko, Ayeka and Tenchi appeared right behind Ranma, and they too were in a state of shock. They heard about the Sailor Senshi, but they never dreamed that they would meet them in a situation like this. “Ranma...” Tenchi began.
 
Ranma ignored Tenchi, and stood up. He turned around and all the boyish properties in his face were gone. He looked at them and said, “Take care of her...” and he walked away. Tenchi was about to hold Ranma's shoulders when Ryoko grabbed his hand and shook her head. She read his face. She didn't like it.
 
The other Sailor Senshis were recovering and joining Pluto. They tensed as Ranma walked towards them.
 
“You killed her...” Ranma whispered. “You killed her...”
 
“You have no one to blame except for yourself!” Pluto lied. She began to tense up too.
 
“SHUT UP!” Ranma shouted. “YOU KILLED HER, YOU... YOU MURDERERS!”
 
And Ranma screamed with anger, rage and depression, and his aura burst in flames and the intensity became greater and greater. Suddenly his appearance started to change.
 
His black spiky hair done in a pigtail began to change into a gold, and it elongated as well. His bangs elongated a bit giving him a very intimidating look. His eyes turned for grayish blue to crimson and his body seemed to get bigger.
 
Pluto became really scared now. Ranma was now looking like the one she saw in the time gates.
 
Super Saiyan Ranma just glared at them. “Let's dance...”
