I refuse to stop the insanity!! I the 'Exclamation Queen!!' will give you another chapter! Thanks to all you strange ones who reviewed! Especially to Crystal Dream (I had completely forgotten about Birdy/Tsutomo!! Thanks!) Well this time more He/She's and She-Males will appear! Including my favorite She-Male Napolipolita!! Enjoy!
Genderly Challenged
"Genderly Challenged" Maze repeated "You know, Not quite one way or the other or not always male or not always female" Maze finished staring at the two boys. "Great, I knew it had to be something weird if Nabiki wanted me to go…" Ranma trailed off with a sigh, wondering if he could find a loophole in Nabiki's blackmail. Dilandau, on the other hand, continued to gape not understanding "What do you mean!? I have no idea what you are talking about!" He stammered "Well someone's in denial" Maze said flatly "I think she pretty much spelled it out for us Dil" Ranma stated. Dilandau was now sure that there had to be some mistake, 'Hmm, yes I don't belong here with these…people…and their strange fancies…I don't even know what they are saying' Dilandau decided 'Wait a minute! Did that Ranma guy just call me 'Dil'???' He thought angrily looking towards Ranma who was waving a hand back and forth in front of his face "Yoo-hoo! Dil! Are you still with us?" he called as Maze giggled.
Dilandau slapped Ranma's hand out of the way "Of course I'm here! And stop calling me 'Dil' My name is LORD Dilandau to you pissant!" He snapped "Pissant?!" Ranma exclaimed indignantly as Maze covered her mouth in shock "Your one to be telling me what not to call you! I was just trying to find an easier way to pronounce your name, What you said sounded like an insult to me!" He finished angrily. Dilandau, not really wanting to get in a fight with this strange boy he knew nothing about, decided it would be more tactful if he brushed the boy off for now "Well, just make sure you call me by my proper name from now on and I'll refrain from insulting you" He said as he turned away from the two. "Well don't you owe me an apology then?" Ranma asked expectantly Dilandau turned back towards Ranma with a shudder "Apology!?" He hissed.
"Yes apology" Ranma said "Heh…Dilandau Albatou never apologizes" Dilandau said in a haughty tone. "Well maybe he should" Ranma stated as he and Dilandau faced each other. Dilandau drew his sword and Ranma balled his fists. Maze tried her best to intervene "Now boys, this is no reason to fight, can't we all just forget about it?" She said as a sweatdrop appeared on her head. "No!" Dilandau and Ranma answered in unison as they began to move in on each other. Before they could begin their duel however, the door to the room opened once again admitting a rather masculine looking woman (or is it a rather feminine looking man?), your standard Japanese high school boy, and an attractive man (umm, I think…). Dilandau and Ranma both backed away from each other as the three newcomers took their seats. "We'll settle this later" Dilandau said with a smirk "Sure, there is no way I'm letting you get away with that remark" Ranma answered with a grin.
"Umm, I'm Maze, this is Ranma and Dilandau…" Maze began trying her best to be friendly "What are your names?" she asked. The masculine lady…err…man spoke first "I am Napolipolita captain of the…" "She didn't ask for your like story" Dilandau said in a droll tone of voice "Just ignore him" Maze said as she gave Dilandau a look "Please continue" The attractive man, was next to speak "You can call me Grim" was all he said. Once he was sure the man had nothing else to say the Japanese boy spoke up "My name is Tsutomo" He said softly. There was an awkward pause after the introductions, Dilandau found that he was growing more and more uncomfortable being around these people 'What is it?' He thought as he studied each of them thoroughly 'They are just so…strange' he concluded as the door to the room opened yet again.
In stepped a woman who had long black hair she walked to a large chair that occupied the room (for some reason it has escaped the attention of the others in the room until now…) The woman sat down pulled out a pad of paper from the bag she had been carrying and looked at those who occupied the room before saying "All right, lets get this thing started"
Short chapter, but what else do you expect from me? Hope you liked it, next time we will get into the meeting. Muahahaha! Will Dilly find out about his traumatic past!? I don't know but if you send some reviews I will be forced to figure it out. Also you will find out about these little know characters (I don't think anyone really knows Napolipolita ^_^()…) Until Next Time!!
