~3 Weeks Later~

It has been 3 weeks since Tails Doll has confessed to Ranma and their friendship has grown strong since. They continue their training in Ranma's martial arts, magic and ki, growing stronger and learning, they've even improved on Ranma's studies. But now, Ranma will once again learn a new power!

...

~Remote Mountain Area~

~Noon, 12:36 AM~

We see the duo in the middle of the area as Ranma, eyes closed, his body in ready position as he began to focus on both his Ki and Mana. Tails Doll levitates a few meters above as he gets ready to begin Ranma's practice. "Three", distorted shadow humanoids began to form, "Two" The distorted humanoids began to form wings and got into various fighting stances and position, "One", Few of them began to form various Fira II, Leaf, Ice II spells, while others began to form various weapons from axes, spears, and swords.

"Begin!" Tails Doll Signaled.

Ranma quickly opened his eyes as he unleash a barrage of Ki Blast at one side and a Fira III in the other as several shadows were blasted away. A few got up and began to attack.

Ranma dodged few spear thrust, followed by a couple sword swing from one side. He landed the first punch at the head of one, as he followed it up with a Low Kick and several quick punches at it's chest, He then spun around several others with a strong kick and three more kick to each. He then crouched down before launching up high at the air as performed a High Jump Kick directly at one of them, coming into contact before it disappeared out of existence. The shadow warriors continued their assault at the young martial artist as the others who were blown away initially, quickly readied their spells, as they unleashed their attacks.

Ranma launched several punches at one before lifting it up in front him, blocking most of the scorching flames before fading as the boy dodged a few sharp leaves directed at him. Ranma began to counter with prepared Finger Beams to several casters as he then shot out his own Energy Wave at the directed attackers, destroying them in the process. Ranma jumped up near his attacking spell casters as he began to form bright red daggers made of Ki, "Spirit Twin Daggers!", as he slashes through several casters, effectively taking them out. However, one of them managed to hold Ranma in a Full-nelson as he struggles to get out.

Three of the shadow humanoids recovered and began to punch and kick Ranma to his abdomen, chest and face. They continue their attack on the martial artist. Ranma continues to struggle as his body continues taking blow by blow.

Ranma, with all his might, manage to break free, now bruised in various areas on his body as he unleashes a "Energy Wave (II)!" at his opponents as they dissapate from existence. He then turns to the last remaining shadows before unleashing a "Multi-Lightning Shot (II)!" as only one remained. Ranma, at high speed, began to focus all his strength in his fist as he got closer to shadowy humanoid before his fist went straight through it's chest as it burst into black smoke, disappearing completely.

Ranma stood up straight as a proud smile form in his slightly bruised face. Tails Doll himself was smiling upon the boy before annauncing the end of the practice. "This practice is over! We'll take a break!" Tails Doll shouts to Ranma as he begins to descend near the boy. "Okay Tails-chan!" Ranma said, his smile unchanged.

...

~Afternoon, 1:32~

~45 Minute Break Starts Now~

The duo sat down as Ranma pulls out a bag of fruits from his pack as they began to chow down. Ranma was eating two apples with each in one hand, while Tails Doll began opening his abnormally large mouth with razor sharp teeth as three oranges are soon chomped down and in the process of chewing. This continues for 45 minutes as their break comes to an end.

~Break Over~

...

Ranma using Cura, completely heals as they continue their training. "Now Ranma, this time you'll be learning to use Psychic Power and abilities." Tails Doll says. Ranma feeling excited say, "Alright! So what do I gotta do?" Ranma asked. "Well, first I'll need to unlock your mind's hidden potential of your psychic power. Stay still please." He instructed as he reaches out to Ranma's forehead, unlocking his Psychic Power.

...

Ranma felt a powerful feeling in his mind as his blue eyes start to glow bright. Once Tails Doll took a step back in front of him, Ranma's mind suddenly realized something as his right hand is suddenly enveloped in blue telekinetic/psychokinetic energy, fist forming as he shouts "Psycho Punch!" as he launches a strong psychokinetic punch at Tails Doll. Tails Doll puts his arms in front in an X formation as he effectively blocks the attack. "Good." Tails Doll commented in his deep voice.

Ranma took a step back and stood smirking as his eyes continue to glow, while his hand returned back to normal. "Not bad. You've managed to learn and handle your very first psychokinetic technique, The Psycho Punch." Tails Doll said with a hint of pride.

"Sweet! Now what?" Ranma asked excited. "Well first there's something we need to work and that is your mental control." Tails Doll answered, as Ranma asked "Why?".

"Because Ranma, most wielders with the powers of the mind must at least have control over themselves both in body and mind as Psychic Power is the extrasensory powers and abilities of one's mind." Tails Doll explained, as Ranma nods in understanding.

"So that is why we'll be training your mind with various meditations and mental exercises as I have researched and don't worry, just think of it as martial arts training like your various katas and styles." Tails Doll reassures him.

Ranma understanding his friend's analogy, was now grinning, eager to start. Ranma sat comfortably in position as he began to mentally focus, closing his eyes.

'Now. I need you to try and keep a calm mind. Be strong Ranma' Tails Doll instructed via Telepathy. Ranma struggles as many memories from good to bad, from recent to forgotten replay in his mind around him. He struggles to keep his composure as he watches his friend Ukyo getting abondoned by him and his father, feeling guilt, the Nekoken/Cat-fist training, scarring him, and finally watching his mother fade away in view as sadness begins to feel him. Ranma struggling to keep his mind's composure as he suddenly hears his friend say 'Keep going Ranma, remember: Ranma Saotome never loses' Tails Doll said. Ranma hearing his friend say his own words, suddenly felt a surge of confidence as he took one long breath as his mind suddenly went empty as his mind calms down complete for two hours until Tails Doll told Ranma "that's enough. You did good." Tails Doll said. Ranma simply smiled at him.

They spent the rest of their time training as Ranma learns new psychic techniques before they went back to camp.

...

~Saotome Campsite~

~Evening, 11:24 PM~

While both Ranma and Genma were sleeping, Tails Doll silent snuck into Genma's pack. There he found many of Genma's scammed marriage agreements, stashed money and food as usual. But what caught the Fox Doll's attention and interest was a scroll containing: The Umi-Sen Ken, one of two martial arts styles invented by Genma.

Tails Doll began reading through the entire scroll of all it's content in exact detail. After memorizing the entire martial arts styles, he returned the scroll and everything back in their initial positions as he grabbed an empty scroll as he began to down the entire style in a flash, before going back inside with the copied Umi-Sen Ken scroll as he hid it. Once he kept it safe, he looks at the sleeping form of Ranma before saying, "We're going to be training harder then we'll ever have. Starting with this style" as he rested beside Ranma before going limp as he began to rest.

End of Chapter 4

...

~Morning, 4:13 AM~

'Ranma', 'Ranma!', 'Ranma!!'. Ranma woke up, eyes wide open as he saw Tails Doll float on top of him.

"Why'd ya wake me up Tails-chan?" The boy said rubbing his eyes.

"Because we're going to train harder now" Tails Doll answered.

"Now let's go" The fox doll said as they got out the tent.
