RANMA'S TRIP TO MAINFRAME
Written by ElektraChapter Four
Dot looked at Ranma and Akane, "You
two seem mad at each other..."
Ranma laughed harshly, "She's ALWAYS
mad! It makes her SO uncute!!"
Akane glared once more. "You JERK!!!"
And once again reached into her mallet space.
Mouse and Dot were fascinated by the
displacement of space as a portal formed, "Akane.. NOOO.. NOT
AGAIN!!"
Akane looked at the portal she had
made, "Oh.. this is just great! HONESTLY!! Why does this..." suddenly
she was sucked in, "AAAAHHHH!!!"
"Here we go again!!" Ranma replied,
and leaped in after her.
Just at that moment, Mike the TV
arrived with Soun and Ryouga, "Commander Matrix, we found..." he
stopped when he saw the portal.
Soun saw the portal as well,
"AKANE!!" He cried. He pulled away from Mike and Ryouga, and quickly
jumped through the portal. The portal closed abruptly behind him,
leaving everyone staring in surprise.

Ranma slowly sat up. He felt
different. He felt... wet. "Oh... This is juuuuuust great!!!" He
muttered, and heard the female voice he had grown so used to. He
noticed he had fallen in a small pond. He quickly crawled out.
Akane looked around from her spot on
the ground, "Wha.. huh...?? Where are we???"
The place seemed to have some type
of tropical climate. Mountains loomed in the distance. There was
little water, except what Ranma had fallen in to, and lots of rock.
Female Ranma glared at Akane, "You know... this is all YOUR fault!!"
Akane narrowed her eyes, "Shut UP,
Ranma!!"
Female Ranma ignored her, and looked
around, "Hmm... I could've sworn I saw your pop get sucked here with
us.."
Akane perked up, "Daddy??" She stood,
"Well.. where IS he???"
Female Ranma shrugged, "No idea..."

Sound Tendo found himself in a dark
cave. "What on earth...?"
"HUMAN!!" A voice gasped, "Where did
you come from??"
Soun looked for the source of the
voice, but couldn't see anything in the darkness. Yet, he could've
sworn the voice sounded familiar. "Who's there..??"
"What are you doing in my private
space..???" the voice asked.
"Ranma...????" Soun started. "I
suppose you fell in the water again, eh son..??"
"Um... excuse me???" the voice
replied, somewhat confused.
Soun quickly burst into tears,
"Ohhhh.. Ranma... what happened to my Akane??? Where is my Akane??!?"
he cried. Tears streamed down his face like a river.
"Listen... I don't know who you are
or who you think I am.. but my name's NOT Ranma. It's Black
Arachnia!" the voice replied.
"Black Arachnia???" Soun cried,
"Ooooh Ranma... why are you making up names for yourself? Do you hate
my Akane that much??" Soun's tears continued to stream.
"WHAT is going on here!!!!" An angry
voiced boomed from the cave entrance. A light was shone into the
cave, and Soun could see the... THING beside him. She looked like...
a robot!
The 'woman' quickly saluted the other
robot at the entrance, "Uh.. Megatron, sir.. I was.. merely resting,
sir..."
Soun looked towards the cave
entrance, and saw another odd creature. He was similar to the
female. Soun's eyes went wide, "Living robots???"
The male looked at him, "A HUMAN?!!
But.. HOW? Who are you??"
Soun stood up, "I'm Soun Tendo of
the Tendo School of Anything Goes Martial Arts.."
"Yes.. well... I am Megatron, leader
of the Predacons!" Megatron frowned, "And we are more then just mere
ROBOTS... HUMAN." Megatron spat the last word out angrily. "Black
Arachnia... grab him!!"
Suddenly, the female robot grabbed
Soun and threw him over her shoulder. "What are humans doing here??
They're not supposed to be around for a few million years!!" she
said to her leader.
"Obviously this one was displaced in
time... as were we..." Megatron explained. "Now... let's see. What
should we do with him?? Perhaps dissect him?? Or... maybe keep him
for observation?? Yeeeees... that would do quite nicely!"
***
"You know.. if you weren't such a
violent, uncute tomboy with a bad temper, NONE of this would've
happened!!" Female Ranma shouted.
"And if you weren't such a
self-righteous, egotistical, sexist JERK none of this would have
happened!" Akane shouted back.
The two continued their argument,
not realizing how far their voices reached.
***
An odd metallic creature was taking
his daily flight when he heard the voices. He quickly landed to have
a closer look, "Now... I think I recognize that voice!! What is she
doing here??" He asked himself. "MAXIMIZE!" He commanded. Soon his
wolf-bird body became that of a humanoid robot. He folded his wings
neatly, and headed towards the argument.
***
Female Ranma was ranting. "You know,
Akane... you and your stupid mallets are what got us into this mess!!
Geez.. why do ya gotta be so tempermental all the time?? You get
mad at everything I do!! You never let up!! And you always think the
worst of me.. no matter what I do!!! Even when I try to explain
you..."
"Black Arachnia??!" A voice
interrupted.
"Black... who?!?" Female Ranma
replied.
Soon, a weird robotic creature came
towards them, "Oh.. I'm sorry.. I thought you were..." he stopped,
and looked at Ranma and Akane, "HUMANS!!" he gasped.
"You thought we were humans??! Well..
buddy.. guess what... we ARE!!" Female Ranma replied.
The robot stared at her for a moment,
the shook his head, "No no.. that's not what I meant. Forgive me. But
you sound like someone I know. I thought you were her.." he seemed
disappointed, yet surprised at his new find.
Female Ranma looked at him, "What..
you got a girlfriend or something..??"
"Ranma!! That's rude! You don't ask
people questions like that!" Akane replied.
Female Ranma leaned closer to her,
and whispered, "But look at him, Akane.. the guys some sort've robot
freak!"
The creature let out a small laugh,
"Ah.. yes.. you would think that. Of course!" He replied. Female
Ranma was surprised he had heard her. The robot held out a hand,
"My name is Silver Bolt... and you are...??"
