Chapter Two
"All right, Kumo. Right here is where the Phoenix powder is located. Are you ready?"
"I've been training my body to survive under water pressure for a month, Ranko. I'll be as ready as I'll ever be."
"You looked so wonderful flying, Kumo. I even caught the kiss you blew me when you flew out of the water. You sweet guy, you," the pig tailed girl, said swooning.
"Glad you saw that, Ranko. Now it's time for me to wake up and get those Dragon Tears. My grandfather doesn't have much time so I better get cracking."
"Love you."
"Love you."

"Aaaaahup!" !!SPLASH!! "Finding it won't be the problem. The problem will be swimming all the way down to the bottom of the sea and holding my breath for that period of time. I'm sure Ranko's watching me right now so I better not waste anytime."
"There it is. Got it. Now to swim up to the surface as quickly as possible. My air's running out!" !!SPLASH!! "Aaaah!" Kumo shook his long hair in a failed attempt to dry it off before finally flying into the sky and back to Japan.
"Now to get to my grandfather. He's normally at his restaurant at this time. Ranko showed me where it was and how to get there. Flying there will take some time so I have to hurry!"
"There it is. I'll show up at the back door."
!!WOOSH!! "Kumo?!" a beautiful girl throwing out some garbage in the dumpster called out.
"Yeah, it's me, Kiriko. Is Grandfather here?"
"Yes. He's in his office. Why do you need to see him and what do you have there?" the light haired, busty teenage girl asked.
"It's something to help him get better. Now let..."
"That stuff stinks! I'm not letting you inside with that!"
"If that's the case then tell him I'm here with the Dragon Tears! His life depends on it."
"Grandfather isn't ill. But he is taking a nap right now so he shouldn't be disturbed."
"Listen, Kiriko. I'm more than strong enough to smash my way in there but I'd rather not do that. Simply tell Grandfather I'm here!"
"Why you..."
"Kiriko."
"Grandfather?"
"You can go back to work. I'll talk with Kumo. This way, Kumo.
As soon as they were in a room which was apart from the main kitchen Kumo put the one foot long, four inches wide, shining silver box shaped substance of Dragon Tears down. "That's it, isn't it?"
"Yes, Grandfather. Has Ranko talked with you already?"
"Yes. You can leave now. I can handle things from here."

A day later, Ranko visited Kumo's dreams again. "It worked, Kumo. Your grandfather is going to be just fine! Now that he's well again he's going to teach me how to cook Chinese food. Things are going to get better from here on out."
"What exactly was that stuff, Ranko?"
"Dragon Tears is a rejuvenation substance that's been in the bottom of the sea. I think it's actually gall stones from a whale made of calcium but I'm not too sure of that. But now your grandfather will live for a much longer time."
"I'm glad to hear that, Ranko. Since we're here together we might as well. Um."
"Yes, Kumo?" the petite girl said with a coy smile.
"Well."
"You looked so hot with your body and hair drenched. Gets me hot just thinking about it."
"Really? You know what gets me hot?"
"What's that, Kumo?" Ranko said, leaning over towards, giving her lover a better view of her cleavage.
"Hearing you giggle helplessly. Come here you." Kumo took hold of the sparkling red head, caressing her neck and working his way down.
"He he he he he! That tickles!"
"You're so cute when you laugh, Ranko. Where's that particular spot. Here it is."
"Not there! Hehehehehehehe!!" she giggled uncontrollably, breathing in such a way that she began to come out of her clothes with a little help from her lover.
"Gosh, you're beautiful!" he said as he gently caressed her almost naked body.
"Ooooh! Oh that feels so good. Oh, Kumo! Giggle!"

MONTHS LATER AFTER THE FAILED WEDDING: In the kendo training room at Furinkan High, Kuno was taking his rage out on a kendo practice dummy that resembled Ranma. "Curses! Another defeat by the sorcerous Saotome. But I still fight on!"
"I know a samurai who has psychic powers that can easily kill Ranma, but he's a hired killer and he doesn't come cheap," Gosunkugi said as he crept up to Kuno, having already sneaked inside the kendo training room.
"What!" Kuno exclaimed indignantly. "I would never hire a mercenary to do what I can easily do myself! How dare you imply that I cannot vanquish the sorcerous Saotome?"
But as Gosunkugi began to creep away when he found himself held fast by Kuno. "Well?" Kuno asked.
"What?"
"Tell me who this samurai is."
"I thought you didn't want..."
"Fool! Many samurai warlords have had warriors serving under them. I shall judge this samurai to see if he is worthy of serving me."
"His name is Kintaro Kurogawa. He is also known as the Psychic Samurai. He's a big scary guy with hard features and silver samurai armor that is custom made of stainless steel, capable of absorbing great deal of damage. He even wears a helmet that covers part of his face. From all accounts he's a cold blooded killer," Gosunkugi explained.
"Bring him to me at once!" Kuno demanded.

"So you say you can defeat Ranma Saotome," Kuno asked the silver armored samurai with an air of imperiousness.
"That's correct. Even if he is a better martial artist than me, he cannot stand up to my psychic powers which attack the mind. He would have to have been trained to resist psychic powers to even have a chance against me but that's highly unlikely," the samurai explained.
"I will reward you well if you can destroy the sorcerous Saotome. But beware. He uses black magic." Kuno related.
"No amount of magic can stop my psychic powers. But it probably won't come to that. My samurai warrior skills will be enough to beat this Ranma. If not, then my psychic powers will do the job. I will find Ranma Saotome and destroy him," Kintaro exclaimed as the wind seemed to swirl around him.
"Charlie called it right! I get to Ranma right away!" Ranko thought to herself, watching the events unfold in her astral form.

Next day. !!ZOOM!! "What the?! Yeow!" Ranma exclaimed, doing an acrobatic flip and landing deftly on the ground. He then regarded the silver armored samurai that had attacked him. "Who are you?"
"I am Kintaro Kurogawa, the Psychic Samurai!" the man proclaimed as winds whirled violently around him. "Someone has paid a lot of money to kill you, Ranma Saotome. So now it's time for you to die."
Kintaro flew at Ranma and attacked with his stainless steel blade with more speed and skill than Kuno had ever displayed. But despite this, Ranma evaded these attacks. "This guy's playing for keeps. Yes! An opening!"
Ranma hit him with some fast strikes and some quick, low wing chun kicks which stunned Kintaro. "Now for the coup de grace!"
!!CRACK!! "The last kick was too powerful. I don't whether or not I can stand up to another attack from my opponent. I'll have to use my psychic powers to defeat him." !!POW!! "Ungh!" "I have to do it quickly!"
"Why do you call yourself the Psychic Samurai?" Ranma asked as he walked towards the downed samurai warrior.
"I'm glad you asked." Kintaro's eyes glowed as he psi blasted Ranma.
"Arghh!" Ranma screamed as he grabbed his head in pain, feeling as if it would explode! Then his eyes rolled inside his head as he dropped to the ground.
Inside Ranma's mind different events were taking place. "Okay, Ranma, you just relax; I'll help you recover from this," Ranko said gently as she carried him to a bed, put a blanket over him and psychically healed him. "Just sleep for now, Big Brother." Having said that, Ranko kissed him on the forehead and walked out of the room.
"Now it's time to deal with this psychic samurai. The training I went through to resist mental attacks is about to come to the fore. Better animate Ranma's body before this guy slices it up," Ranko thought to herself.
"Now to finish him off. This was my greatest opponent but no one can withstand my power," the samurai strategized.
"Hiyaaaah!" !!POW!! The samurai went flying back from "Ranma"s attack
"What the... No! No! No!" Kintaro was barely able to regroup before evading another attack.
"You like that, Kintaro? Try this on for size!" !!ZAPZZZK!!
"That attacked bypassed my armor. What was it?"
"That was my No Normal Defense attack. No matter how much armor you have this attack will always get through."
"Then I will have to destroy you before you can attack again. Aiyaa!" Kintaro screamed. "My psi attack should have blown his mind away. I'll have to try it again and again until his mind is no more. Now! Hyaaa!"
"Yeaargh!" To the samurai's surprise "Ranma" shook off the effects of his second psychic attack.
"It's time for round two, samurai. That psychic attack only worked once; it won't work again," "Ranma" said as she raised up her battle aura and sang.
I'm Ranma San. I've got it going on. I'm Ranma San. I've got it going on.
You tried to kill me because you were paid off. When I'm through with you, lots of blood you'll cough.
You were certain that you would beat me. But that's something that will never be.
Now you know I'm much tougher than you thought I'd be. You thought that you would win. But get ready for defeat!
I'm Ranma San. I've got it going on. You thought I was weak but you now know that I'm strong.
Kintaro can't you see I'm not someone you can beat. Therefore you had it wrong. I'm not weak. I'm very strong.
"Fool! My psychic attack almost killed you before; but this time I will finish your off!" Kintaro said as he psi blasted "Ranma" a third time. But this time "Ranma" staggered back only a little bit, shaking her head as if recovering from being wacked on the head and continued to advance on Kintaro.
I'm Ranma San. I've got it going on. I'm Ranma San. I've got it going on.
You think your psychic powers will do me in. But even with your mind blast you're not going to win.
Your psychic powers are very strong. But even that won't keep me down for long.
Kintaro had a look of shock on his face. "That's impossible!" he exclaimed. "There is no way he could have resisted that attack unless. Wait. He's not Ranma! At least that's not the same mind I psi blasted just now. This one has mental defenses unlike Ranma before."
Now you know I'm much tougher than you thought I'd be. You thought that you would win. But get ready for defeat.
I'm Ranma San. I've got it going on. You thought I was weak. But now you know that's wrong.
Kintaro can't you see. I'm not someone you can beat. Therefore you had it wrong. I'm not weak. I'm very strong.
With the end of her song "Ranma" blasted him with another NND blast. !!ZOOM!! !!POW!!CRACK!!BOOM!! "Aaaagh!"
"And don't come back!" Ranko screamed as she sent her opponent into the atmosphere.
"Now to see Gobancho Sensei about helping Ranma and me each get the bodies we want. I'll check on Ranma later on when I go to sleep tonight. He'll be all right where I left him. Hopefully I'll get to see Kumo really soon!"
!!RUMBLE!! "Whoa!" "So that's what hunger feels like. I guess it's time to eat." Ranko then leaped into to the air, flying off towards the Tendo household.

AUTHOR'S NOTES: Once again I have rewritten this chapter. Before the format was bad but I've repaired it. My thanks to Rarstarr and Spaceman for their helpful reviews. And my new thanks to Materia-Blade for informing me of my run-on sentences and the words that were stuck together.
The Psychic Samurai bore the appearance of the Silver Samurai from Marvel Comics. Charlie was a parody of Charlie Brown. (You know how he liked the redheaded girl. Don't you?)
Next time see how Ranko gets along with everyone including Akane.
