The New Nerima Wrecking Crew Chapter 14 Six Months

Akemi ran up to Homura' room.

" Homura-chan why didn't you show up for...WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU WEARING?" The hanyou was shocked to see her fellow tomboy wearing a red knee length cheongsam(Chinese dress). " You look like a girl!"

" Hello Akemi-chan."

" You look like a girl!"

"Today I have to work for the Old Ghoul."

" You look like a...who?"

"Oh yeah, you haven't had to yet. All the students of the Anything Goes dojo have to work at the Neko Haten as part of their training. It's run by Cologne but we call her Old Ghoul."

" How come, and why do you have to wear such a girly dress?"

" Cologne is an amazon martial arts master, she even taught Otu-sensei.. The dress is a waitress uniform." Homura explained.

" And you're ok with this?" Akemi asked.

" I learn a lot from the Ghoul and I get good tips too. Plus it's fun to turn boys into puddy."

" I'm coming with you."

" Sure you can meet the Ghoul."

Neko Haten

" Cologne-obba I'm here." Homura called as she and her friened entered the cafe. A shrivled, wrinkled monkey thing with long white hair pogoing on a long staff approached them.

" You're just in time for the dinner rush. Whose this?"

" I'm Akemi Higurashi."

" The hanyou I've been hearing about. Good timing, Xian pu can get you fitted for a dress." Akemi glared.

" Hold it right there! There's no way you're getting me into some femmine dress!" Cologne cackled.

" How about we make a bet? If you can beat me you don't have too. If you don't beat me you have to work twice as long as the others with half pay."

" Don't do it." Homura whispered urgently in her friend's ear.

" Oh please." Akemi snorted at her friend's concern. " She looks older then dirt and just as fragile and slow I bet. One hit, that's all it'll take." Akemi cracked her knuckles and approached Cologne. " Ready old lady?"

" Just try and keep up little girl."

Akemi slipped into a fighting stance while Cologne stayed on herstaff with a look of indifference. The hanyou charged, claws beared. Quick as a flash Colognedropped to the ground, grabbed her staff and knocked Akemi's feet from under her. Then taking advantaged of her confusion she dumped above her and slammed her staff into the younger girl's stomach.

Akemi coughed and tried to get air back into her lungs.

" Had enough?" She jumped to her feet and lunged again, only to have the small end of the staff thrusted at her neck and cut off her air.

" Little girl, do you think you're a steam roller?" Akemi glared.

" Iron Reaper!" her claws glowed as she struck out again and landed on the ghoul. Akemi smirked before what she hit vanished. 'An after image.'

" Splitting cat hairs." Homura explained. " She moves so fast it's like there's a bunch of her."

" Homura is right." Said a dozen Colognes and surrounded the hanyou. " So little girl, can you guess which one is the real me?"

" I don't need to." Akemi dug her claws into the opposing arm and drew blood. Everyone gasped, wondering why she injuried herself at such a time. The hanyou merely smirked at their concern pulled her claws out while spinning. " BLADES OF BLOOD!" The Colognes spun their staffs in front of them and blocked the attack.

" Nice try little girl." they mocked

" Why can't I beat you? You're just an old hag!" The colognes chuckled.

" You may be half-demon but I am backed by three hundred years of amazon history." Then they all pounced and smacked Akemi in the head. Cologne banished the after images and watched as her prey stumbled then blacked out.

Akemi woke up in a strange room.

" Good you're up." A woman with long purple hair and wearing chinese shirt and pants approached.

" Who are you and where am I?

" I am Shampoo, I brought you here after Great grandmotherCologne beat you."

" That old mummy beat me?" Akemi cried in disbelief.

" Yes she gave you a good whopping." Shampoo replied and smirked. She tossed Akemi a dress and told her to try it on, grumbling Akemi obeyed.

" Mei, 2 pork ramen table five!" Colgone called and tossed two bowls of ramen. The younger amazon jumped caught both bowels and threw them to the correct table without spilling a drop.

" Homura, 1 chicken 1 beef, table 6!" Tossed the bowels out. The pig tailed one dashed to bowels, caught them mid stride and arrived at the waiting table.

" Here you go, thank you for dinning at the Cat Cafe."

" Akemi 1 pork ramen table 3!" The amazon elder tossed out the bowel, but Akemi missed it and was hit square in the head. The bowel shattered but all the half demon got was a smallbruise. " Every drop comes out of your salary you know." Then she tossed out another pork ramen to Ming.

" Damn you, old lady." Akemi muttered.

Genkai's Temple First month of training

" Use your spirit energy to float above the spike, we will hold this for twelve hours." Genkai explained. She and Keisou were practicing the infamous 'Float above the spike' training.

" I...HATE...you." Keisou said through his teeth. He could only hold his postion for 2 hours before his spirit energy gave out and he fell.

" We'll try again tomorrow. Jin and Touya should help you with your spirit channeling problems." And with that the Genki wind master picked up Keisou and flew off.

" Put me down!"

" Ok." Jin dropped Keisou from several stories up.

" AHH!" Keisou rightend himself so he would land feet first but the shock of impact made him collapse.

" You need to focus your reiki to your feet to cushion your fall." Touya explained. " Ready to try again?" Keisou struggled to his feet.

" You bet!" Jin picked him up, he focused his reiki and was able to get his feet to glow a very pale blue.

CRASH

" Better." Touya said. " Want to take a break?"

" No way!"

Second Month of Training

Jin dropped Keisou and the younger martial artist was able to slow his decent to point where he landed lightly on his feet.

" Do ya wanta to go higha?" Jin asked.

" Yeah." Jin took Keisou twice as high as before but still Keisou landed easily.

" Looks like you have that down, Let's try something else. Focus your energy to your hands to create a barrier." Keiosu channeled reiki to his hands, made a small, light barrier, Touya fired his blast, and...

Keisou turned into a girl

" Keisou?" He asked.

"Oh no." Keisou-chan muttered. Jin laughed so hard he fell out of the sky. " It's not that funny!"

" I'm sorry Keisou, I thought I'd use water untill you were good at making barriers." Keisou-chan explained her curse.

" I'm sorry but I can't make hot water." So they had to go back to the Temple. The others were there practicing.

" Hey mates,(hic) whose ta Sheila?" Chuu asked slurred drunkenly He tumpled over to Keisou-chan and put an arm around her. " Whata (hic) say to a little (hic) fun, pretty one?" Keisou turned green and throw up. " Ya sick(hic) sheila?"

" Chuu, you just hit on Keisou." Touya said with a sweatdrop. The drunken warrior's eyes shot wide open then he fainted and fell on Rinku.

" Get him off me!" Rinku shouted.

Jin cracked up again. Keisou sighed and pushed the behemoth off the little bugger.

" Shishi, do you know what this means?" Suzuka asked.

" I do indeed." Replied the bird demon.

" Endless style combinations!" The two said at the same time, striking a pose.

" Hell no! I'm not dressing like a girl!" Keisou-chan shouted.

" How'd this happen?" Rinku asked and Keisou-chan explained again. Rinku chuckled, already planning on ways to prank Keisou. Said martial artist was doused with boiling water.

"Back to work!" Genkai shouted.

Third Month of Training

" Rei ganseki chakudan!(Spirit Rock projectile!) Keisou called and threw small rocks charged with his spirit energy at targets. The impacts destroyed the targets utterly.

" Very good Keisou, now try short range with this." Rinku tossed him a bokken. " Against this target." Rinku pointed at a large rock. Keisou channeled his reiki into the bokken and smashed the target, it ripped open as if it was made of plastic(which it was) and splashed him with water. All three of her teachers started laughing.

Keisou-chan's forehead vein poked out.

" Rei ganseki chakudan!" She shouted and threw more rocks at them.

After she had calmed down and gotten some hot water training resumed untill nightfall.

" Stay away from my food!" Suzuka shouted as Chuu grabbed a role from his plate.

" If ya weren't so busy lookin at yerself in the mirror, ya coulda stopped me." Chuu countered. A yo-yo shot out and grabbed the roll.

" And if you weren't so busy arguing, You'd be the one eating this roll." Said Rinku as he began eating it. A gust of wind blew it out of Rinku's hand and into Jin's.

" The roll be mine!" The Wind Master chuckled as he floated up to the ceiling. A ghost crept up behind Jin.

" Boo!" The ghost shrieked. Jin was so startled he dropped the roll and it landed in Shishiwakmaru's hand.

" Whose got it now?" The bird demon taunted as he ran from the angry wind controler, and slipped on a patch of ice. He fell flat on his back and the roll flew into Touya's hand who ate it before anyone could react.

Keisou sighed. ' These are my sensei.' He thought.

" Keisou, I have something important to show you." Genkai said. Keisou was about to ask if it could wait till tommorow before he noticed how reminescent and quiet his sensei was.

" This way." The old psychic lead Keisou away from the ogry of violence that was the dinner table to a quieter area of the temple. She pointed her finger through a window and fired a beam of blue light from it.

" That was your father's signature technique, the Spirit Gun. Countless demons have fallen to it."

Keisou made his fingers in the shape of a gun and tried the same thing, a thin line of blue light shot from his finger and through the window.

" I thought you'd be able to handle it." Then her 'old fossil' demeanor returned. " I expect you to practice it." Then she returned to dinner.

Meanwhile with Ichiro and Ebisu at the Temple of Gravity

Ebisu saw Ichiro washing the dormitories.

" I don't hear your stomach growling so you must've found food." Said the ex-yakuza.

" Yeah. The first home I went to invited me in like I was family, it was amazing." Ichiro replied.

" Told ya, bet you wouldn't have asked otherwise. Now I have to get to my own training." ' Just you wait Keisou, I'll be stronger then ever.'

" PLET!"

Ebisu turned around and saw Ichiro had slipped and spilled the washing bucket.

' Right after this.' Ebisu got some hot water to change Ichiro back.

" You can wrap cloth around exposing skin in order to keep that from happening." Ebisu said.

" Thanks, but I still have to finish the dormitories before before going to the village to eat."

" But the village will be asleep by then, I'll help so you can get down there sooner." And the two of them began washing together and there was a comfortable silence as Ichiro grew even more found of his new role model.

And then Hoshi showed up.

" Ebisu! I'm so proud of your brotherly compassion!" He said with waterfall tears.

This set Ebisu off too

" Thank you sensei! I couldn't let him go hungry." And then came the 'manly' hugs. Ichiro started edging away from them.

" Ichiro, are you embrassed?" Ebisu asked.

" It's werid."

" Hoshi-sensei is the father I never had. I don't feel werid about that." Ebisu explained. Ichiro sweatdropped.

" I should get back to cleaning."

2nd month

" Ichiro, do you feel ready for artifical gravity?" Hoshi asked.

" Yes, Sensei." Hoshi began glowing and then pointed at Ichiro. The young boy felt as though an elephant was sitting on him.

" Say when." and increased the pressure. Ichiro grit his teeth, determined to stay on his feet. Every inch of his boyd felt like it had an anvil weighing it down but he stayed focused. Ebisu walked up to the younger marital artist and waved a hand in front of his eyes. He nodded to Hoshi and the older gravity bender removed the pressure.

" That's interesting, he fainted on his feet."

" No one's done that since you Ebisu." Ebisu nodded.

" At this rate, Ichiro will be ready for alerting gravity in another month. I wonder who his parents are, they'd have to be walking tanks for this kind of endurance." Hohi mused.

Japanese Countryside

Ryouga sneezed while feeding the younger simo pigs, this made him slip and land in the muck.

" Ranma! This is all your fault!"

Back at the Temple of Gravity 3rd Month

" Sensei, I'm ready for today's training." Said Ichiro.

" Today will be different Ichiro. Today you will be the one alerting gravity." Said Hoshi.

" Really? You mean I'll be able to eat with the rest of the brothers?"

" No, that will still take time for you to learn." Hoshi then began going over the basics with Ichiro.

Some of the other brothers were watching.

" This rapid progress is quite unusual." One said.

" Indeed, first Ebisu and then this Ichiro. Somethings amiss."

Nerima Anything Goes Dojo

" Hey! I've come to challenge the Master for your plaque!" Called a boy with black hair and eyes. He wore a white gi with the kanji for 'burb' on it. Ranma came out.

" Alright, what's your name?"

" I'm Isamu Takumi and I'm the heir of the school of Martial Arts Burbing!"

Various people outside were listening and promtly face faulted.

" I've heard of werider schools." Ranma said and got into a fighting stance. " Let's go."

Then they exchanged blows, the challenger going all out with Ranma using the smallest fraction of his power.

"Time to get serious, Dragon Burb!" Isamu pulled a jar out of his pocket labeled 'Bean Juice' took a swig and belted out a strong enough burb to shake the dojo walls and create a distintive odor.

' That's just gross.' Ranma thought and finished off the burber with a kick to the stomach.

" Eww, what's that smell?" Homura waved her hand in front as she entered the dojo.

" Him." Her father pointed to the unconscious Isamu, then he saw Akemi. One look at her broth stained dress and ramen filled hair, and he knew what happened.

" The old ghoul giving you a hard time?" A death glare was his answer. " She means well."

Genkai's Temple Fourth month

Keisou was fighting with Chuu in the temple courtyard. The young martial artist had taken Chuu's advice about enjoying the fight and it had been working.

Keisou was on the offensive, sending furies of punches and kicks at the drunken warrior, at first Chuu would only block but Keisou had advanced to the point where that was getting difficult. Keisou sent a hay maker towards Chuu's chin but the fist was grabbed and Chuu pulled Keisou over his shoulder to slam him in the ground, Keisou manuvered his body so he was feet first and used Chuu's momentum to throw him over his shoulder and into the Temple's Gates.

" Not bad kid." Chuu said as he got up. Then went on the attack with a punch to the ground to create a shockwave, Keisou jumped over it and launched into a kick to Chuu's head. The sake giant grabbed his ankle and swung him around in circles over his head before throwing him towards into the Temple wall. He followed up with a punch to the dizzy Keisou's stomach. His student collasped to his knees trying to draw breath. " How many times have I told ya kid? Ya can't have air in yer lungs durrin a fight, or yer oppoent will knock it out of ya an make ya vunerable lik now." Chuu emphazied this with another swig from his jug.

Fifth Month

" Ready to try again dimwit jr?" Genkai asked. " Your record is 9 hours." The teacher and student got back up on the spikes. Six hours later Jin came floating by with a feather and started tickling Keisou's feet.

" Jin..hehe...stop it!" Keisou protested.

" Jin is testing your focus." Genkai explained. Keisou was still able to hold despite Jin's distraction and made it the full 12 hours.

" HA! I did it old fossil." Keisou bragged.

" Good. now you can do it regularly." Keisou slumped.

" Aw."

Sixth Month

Keisou was running through a field and he came to a cliff.

" We have you cornered now." Said his pursurs.

" Not quite." Keisou replied and jumped off the cliff. He channeled reiki to his feet to soften his fall and hit the ground running. He turned around to see he was still being followed. Then he looked ahead again to see ice lances coming at him from all directions, he put reiki to his hands to make a shield and blocked each one as it came. He came to a huge wall with people sending reiki blasts down at him. With his feet he pushed off towards the top and with his hands he blocked all the shots, untill he got to the top.

" Shot Gun!" He shouted and wiped out the wall defenders with countless blasts of reiki. He pushed off the wall and continued forward.

Strings came out from under the ground to grab him and hold him down while a mammoth of a man started to attack him. He grabbed hold of the strings holding him and channeled his own reki down them to give whoever was using them a nasty shock. When they let go he was free to attack the mammoth. The Mammoth attacked with a fury of punches, Keisou jumped onto his arm and pushed off, getting behind the mammoth and continued running. The Mammoth followed him so he turned around, still running forward and made his fingers in the shape of a gun.

" Spirit Gun!" The spirit bullet fired knocked the Mammoth clear back, giving Keisou enough time to reach his destination.

The Dinner Table

" HAHA! Now I get all your dinners!" Keisou bragged and the other six groaned, Genkai chuckled.

' Men only think with their stomachs.' She thought. ' This challenge was one of my better ideas, If Keisou won, he'd be the only one eating dinner, if he lost, he'd be the ony one that wouldn't.'

The Temple of Gravity Fourth Month

Ichiro was practing alerting gravity by crushing and lifting stones. All he had to do was point his umbrella at them focus his ki through it and picture gravity doing what he wished. It was still pretty difficult for him and he could only do small stones. Ebisu was starting to get the hang of doing the same thing without his club. And Hoshi was about to make another lake with how proud he was of his students.

Fifth Month

"Today I'm going to get to the Kitchen." Ichiro declared.

" If you say so." Said Ebisu and hovered up.

" Ichiro! I'm so proud of your enthusiasm!" Hoshi shouted. By now Ichiro was used to him.

" Thank you sensei." Then he went back to focusing. He channeled his ki to the air around him. trying to get gravity to lossen it's hold on him. He started to rise up, his feet were no longer touching the ground. He rose up to the kitchen, high enough so that his feet were level with the floor of the kitchen. All he needed to do was step forward and...his ki gave out and he pummelted back down. Ebisu saw how crushed Ichiro was and came down.

" Hoshi-sensei, go on ahead, I'll be eating with Ichrio tonight." Hoshi shook his head through his tears.

" I shall go with you my boys!" He declared and the three of them went down the mountain.

Sixth Month

" This time I'll get it for sure." Ichiro had spent the last month working on his ki stamina. He focused his ki on the gravity around him and lifted up enough to set foot on the kitchen floor. " I did it!" Ichiro was so happy he hugged Hoshi and Ebisu.

" Congratulations Little Brother Ichiro." Sora said.

" We should we ready to head back soon." Ebisu said after dinner, Ichiro nodded.

Nerima Anything Goes Dojo

Near the Koi pound one could see a red haired girl tossing text books at a silver haired girl with dog ears who would try to catch them. She got a lot of them, but some still escaped her grasp.

" I think you're getting the hang of it."

" Really?"

" A little."

Another book was thrown but this time a girl with long black hair caught it.

" Nana! You're interupting important training!" Akemi shouted and was fixed with a glare from the younger girl.

" You stole my books!"

" So? You don't need then anymore, or did your photo graphic memory fail you?" Her older sister taunted

" It did not!"

" Then you don't need these." Nana grumpled and left.

" She has a photo graphic memory?" Akemi asked her friend.

" Yeah but it only works for school stuff, Otu-san finally gave up trying to teach her kata." Homura picked up another book. " Back to training."

Inside

" Ranma, is something bothering you?" Akane asked.

" Just dinner." Ranma replied, he might of well of eaten his foot.

" Here comes Mallet-sama." Nana remarked on her way to her room. Seconds later there was a Ranma shaped hole in the ground.

" Anything else?" Akane, with Mallet-sama over her shoulder. Ranma pulled himself out of the hole and dusted himself off.

" I was just kidding about dinner." Ranma replied. " Mostly." he added in a whisper.

" I have a feeling something terrible is comming to Nerima."

" How come?"

" Because periods of peace in my life are always followed by immense chaos! I'll probably have to fight an alien race or be transported to another deminsion. " The Grand Master of Anything Goes declared. He kept going on and on about the werid stuff that would happen, his wife had to shut up him up with a passionate kiss. He was caught off guard and fell on his back, but then he wrapped his arms around her.

When they had to come up for air Akane looked her husband in the eyes

" Don't worry Ranma. You're being paranoid, besides what's the worst that could happen?" Ranma opened his mouth to answer so Akane had to silence him again.

In another universe a deity known by few and then only as LON chuckled.
