I would like to thank Ryla, Duo Katwell, Sky, and Sailor Wolfie for reviewing, it really means a lot to me. And thank to Oko for reviewing that sorry poem I wrote. Getting reviews is the best feeling in the world. In this part I get a little into characters from Ranma 1/2. Now On to part 3, my revenge against the chauvinist. BWAHAHAHHAHAHA.
An Unfortunate Occurrence pt3
Wandering Wufei
"Any word from Wufei yet?" the dark-haired pilot shook his head over the com-unit. "Well, keep trying." The blond pilot sighed. He was worried about Wufei. The Chinese pilot was very good at finding what he was looking for, and if he tracked Duo and Heero to Jusenkyo... Quatre didn't want to think about it. In the time between now and Duo and Heero's return, Quatre had seen the curse in action several times. Watching his friends bodies change so radically every time they came in contact with the wrong temperature water was nothing short of horrifying. The radio silence they had encountered while trying to contact Wufei to warn him worried Quatre even more. As a result the three pilots (Trowa was still on his previous mission and therefore totally oblivious to what was going on) were all heading to China to attempt to find Wufei and spare him a tumble into one of the many cursed pools, if it wasn't already too late.
Heero was quite happily piloting the small carrier and trying to reach Wufei at the same time (nothing like a mission to ease his mind), Quatre was going over maps of China, trying to determine the best places to look for Wufei, and Duo was sulking due to an unfortunate incident with the sprinkler system on the way out. Since the water heater on the carrier was broken, Duo was decidedly miserable.
15 minutes later
Heero expertly touched down the aircraft in the middle of a Chinese forest. They exited the vehicle and Quatre spread out the map. "Duo, you take this area directly to the south."
"I don't suppose there are any hot springs there,"
No, but there is a village of some kind. Ask if anyone there has seen Wufei."
"Mission accepte..., oh man, I have been in Heero's body way too long."
"Heero, you take the area to the northeast. If you find him, radio back. I'll do the same in the north west area."
"Hn." Heero nodded in agreement.
"Than we're off." Piped Duo cheerfully. Then his face turned serious. "Remember Quatre, if you see a large valley filled with pools of water STAY OUT OF IT. Even if you see Wufei in there, just call out to him."
"I'll remember," answered Quatre, purposely not looking at his friend who was currently trapped in a body not his own. Duo's earlier comment had scared Quatre, what if the change wasn't just physical?
"Actually, you probably shouldn't call out to him, he might be startled and loose his balance." Heero pointed out, "Just wait for him to notice you."
And with that the three pilots split off
Duo plodded through the dense brush of the forest. Quatre had failed to mention how long a hike it would be to that village. Fortunately Heero's body had better endurance than his own, so it was probably a good thing he hadn't been able to find any hot water. Ten minutes later her heard a faint cry. He turned to see a purple haired Chinese girl with several injuries, bad looking injuries, lying on the ground
"Help...me..." was all she managed to say before passing out. Duo had a short debate with himself. The Heero in him wanted to abandon this girl and continue with the mission, but that personality wasn't the dominant one. With a sigh Duo began dressing the girls wounds.
Later
Duo had managed to set up a small camp. The girl was bandaged up and lying under a small blanket. Duo was concentrating on heating a small pot of water in order to sterilize the girl's wounds and FINALY change back. Suddenly the girl started to stir, then thrash around. Duo walked over and held her down. "Easy miss, you'll hurt yourself."
"I am not a Miss. Let me GO!" the girl cried, thrashing even more. One of her flailing arms hit the pot, splashing the contents over both of them.
"Wufei?"
"MAXWELL??!!"
"I guess it's too late to warn you about Jusenkyo."
"Jusenkyo I knew about, it was Mu Tse that I wasn't prepared for."
"You KNEW about Jusenkyo! And who's Mousse?"
"Not Mousse, Mu Tse, an exiled Amazon male. He too is cursed by Jusenkyo, and basically believes if he must be cursed, so should everyone else. He pushed me into one of those d@mned springs."
"You knew about Jusenkyo and didn't tell us. Omea O Koru... I'll get you later. I suppose Mousse beat you up too?"
"His name is Mu Tse, and no, after my...dousing...I went to Mu Tse's former village and demanded a cure so I would no longer have to deal with this weak female body."
"You said that?" Wufei nodded.
"Man, even I know that Amazons are female warriors, I can't believe you insulted them like that, I thought you were some kind of scholar."
"I am a scholar, I just underestimated their strength."
"Whatever" Duo pulled a walkie-talkie from his pack. "I'm with Wufei, Heading back to base. Over" All he got was static. "I guess they're out of range. Let's head back and find them" Duo sighed. "At least I found Wufei," he thought to himself.
Heero and Quatre did not know Duo had found Wufei and were still looking for him.
A few hours later
The only thing of note Heero found was a waterfall. He cursed softly as he wrung out his long chestnut hair.
Duo found out where Quatre was headed, he and Wufei started running. And that was because...
Quatre had found himself in the middle of a large valley filled with pools and no recollection of how he got there. All he knew was he was lost and had to get out of there ASAP. He had been slowly making his way out, and had finally found the area where the pools seemed to end. He was even more relieved when he saw Duo, or was that Heero (It was Duo), with Wufei, running towards him, but stopping before entering the vicinity of the pools.
"Quatre, are you okay?" called Duo
"I'm fine, I haven't fallen in yet."
"You're almost out"
"I know" Quatre was nearly to the end of the terrible maze. Just a little further...
"LOOK OUT FOR MU TSE!"
"Huh?" Quatre looked around to see what caused Wufei to cry out. To his surprise he saw an angry duck 2 inches from his face. Quatre screamed and lost his balance. Time stood still for a moment as Quatre teetered over the edge of the pool. With a loud splash he plunged into the unknown depths of the water.
For a moment Quatre hoped that he had fallen into a blank pool, as Heero and Duo originally had. There was no such luck though, as he felt a strange sensation running through his body. Now when Heero and Duo were cursed they, anatomically, stayed pretty much the same. Even Wufei's cursed form was a normal human, though female, body. Once again, Quatre had no such luck. He was vaguely aware of himself growing rapidly and then the altogether bizarre sensation of new limbs, not even remotely human, sprouting. The only thought that ran across his extremely frightened mind was, "What have I become? What in Allah's name have I become?"
You know the drill R and R
Servo: Is it over?
Nope, it's just beginning
Servo: In that case I'm outta here
Ever hear of the Spring of the Drowned Keytool
Servo: Eep!
Anyone who wants to see Trowa anytime soon, please give me suggestions for a good curse. Next chapter: Quatre's cursed form, Mu Tse/Mousse's story (Yes he is the character from Ranma) and what happens when you stay in cursed form too long (and maybe Trowa if a good idea comes in).
See ya.
