Fusion Perfected?!
First, I would like you all to know, that I've worked very hard, thought a lot, and done a lot of sketches, figuring out this Fusion, so please, tell me what you think. I'm eager for input. Enjoy!
***********************************************************
Tendo Dojo, After Lunch......................................
Goku and everyone else walked outside, ready to begin training, once again. Goku let out a sigh, looked up, and smiled. He rotated his neck, then looked back down to his pupils. "Aaaall right! Everyone ready to get started again?"Goku asked, with a smile. They all nodded, eager to move on.
Gohan tapped his father on the shoulder. Goku turned to look at his son, who said,"Hey dad, since you, Goten, and Trunks will be training and all, I think I'll take a look around town."
"Yeah sure Gohan. See ya later!"Goku said back, smiling.
"Bye!"Gohan called, as he rose into the air, and blasted off, to see what he could find.
Goku turned back to his pupils. "All riiight! Where were we......Oh yeah! Let's get started!"Goku said, resuming the Fusion Training............................................
In The Skys of Nerima.........................................
Gohan was looking around, on the town below. "This city's some different than the ones back home!"He said to himself, looking over the city below him. "No cars, no skyscrapers, it's kinda weird,"He said to himself. He looked around and saw a large field, with a familiar looking figure, standing in it. His eyes widened at this. "That's Vegeta all right, I can sense his energy. What's he doing out here?"Gohan wondered. He decided to check it out. Vegeta obviously knew he was there anyway..............................
In The Field Below...........................................
Vegeta told Shampoo to attack him again. He, once again, blocked all her attacks, or took them, which didn't phase him at all. Shampoo finally put her hands on he leg, and panted from exhaustion. She looked up at the scowling man. "Why we do this? How it-"she cut herself off, when Vegeta's expression changed, and he looked up past her. She wondered what he could be staring at, and looked up to see.
Her eyes widened, when she saw the boy, she had seen at the Tendo Dojo! 'What he doing here?!'she wondered to herself.
He set down near Vegeta, and looked at him strangely. "Vegeta, since when do you give training classes?"the boy asked chuckling.
Vegeta's face darkened at this. "Silence Gohan!"he said, his voice very dangerous.
"Whoa Vegeta!"he said, putting his hands up in front of him,"No need to get mad! I just saw you down here, and wondered what was going on!"Gohan amended.
"Well, I might as well tell you. This old hag finally annoyed me enough, to train her wealking of a great grandaughter!"Vegeta said, viciously.
Gohan watched the tired looking girl, standing behind Vegeta, get extremely mad, and run at him. Vegeta didn't seem to notice, but when her fist neared his head, he merely caught it, and threw her in front of him. She landed on the ground, and didn't attempt to get up, for a moment. Then Vegeta looked at her and said,"Never try to hit me from behind."
Gohan looked down, at the girl. "Well, good luck! Vegeta's a pretty hard teacher!"he said to her. He waved, then flew off again.
Shampoo stared after him, wondering who he was, before Vegeta ordered her to get up again............................................
Ucchan's okonomiyaki, After The Lunch Rush.........................................................
Krillen, once again, slumped down on a chair, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and let out a sigh of relief. "Wow. I don't know what was busier, yesterday, or today!"he exclaimed, looking out the window.
Ukyo was over, cooking their own lunch. This was the earliest time they could eat it, since they were so busy, up until then. "You seem to be catching on quite well,"Ukyo told him. He had definately improved in the last couple of days, and had performed all the tasks she had given him.
"Thanks,"he said, still looking out the window. He smiled though. Then. his expression changed, to surprise, when he saw someone walking outside. Then he laughed and smiled again.
"What is it Krillen?"Ukyo asked, wondering what he was laughing at.
Krillen rushed out the door to talk to whoever was outside. Ukyo thought she had seen him before. The person Krillen was talking to, turned, and when he saw him, he smiled and laughed as well. Krillen motioned inside, and the boy shrugged, and nodded, following Krillen in, to the restaurant. "Uh, hi!"the boy said, greeting her. He smiled and waved at her.
Ukyo noticed, he was quite cute. "Hi,"she said back. "I saw you at the Tendo Dojo right?"she asked, remembering him.
"Oh, yeah I'm staying there,"Gohan replied, sitting down, with Krillen.
"Gohan, right?"Ukyo asked, trying to remeber the boy's name.
"Yeah,"Gohan replied.
"Sooooo, what brings you around this part of town Gohan?"Krillen asked him.
Gohan looked over at him and said,"Well, dad, Goten, and Trunks, are teaching everyone Fusion, and I didn't really have anything to do, so I figured I'd look around, see what I can find in this town,"Gohan said, telling them why he was here. "So I was just walking by, when you came out,"Gohan said, motioning to Krillen. "Oh Krillen! You'd never guess what I just saw!"Gohan said, looking extremely amused.
Krillen looked back and smiled. "And just what may that be?"
"I just saw Vegeta, in a big field, here's the funny part, actually training someone!"Gohan said, still slightly amazed.
Krillen gaped,"You're kidding right?! And it wasn't Trunks?"
Gohan shook his head,"Nope, some blue haired girl, with some short old woman on a staff."
Ukyo looked up, very surprised at this. "You mean Shampoo?!"
Gohan looked at her strangely. "Actually, I'm not sure. I didn't catch her name,"he said, looking up.
'Darn it!'Ukyo thought. 'Trying to get stronger than me huh? Well, I'll show her!'Ukyo thought, knowing that, now, she would train, extra hard. 'Oh well, I'll worry about it later,'she thought, sighing. She gave Krillen and Gohan some Okonomiyaki and took her own.
Gohan looked at it surprised. "What's this for? I don't have any money!"Gohan told her.
Ukyo looked up and smiled,"That's okay, this ones on the house!"she told him.
Gohan looked at her again, then nodded,"O-okay,"he said. He quickly scarfed the food down, like any Saiyan would, but he didn't ask for more. He didn't want to seem greedy, and it would be a good enough snack, for now. He'd hold until dinner. "Wow! That was great! Thanks a lot!"Gohan said, complimenting her cooking.
"No problem,"Ukyo said, smiling.
Gohan stayed and talked for another hour, then got up to leave. "I should probably be getting back,"he said, stretching. "Besides, I'm sure you two have something to do."
"All right,"Krillen said, smilng and waving, as Gohan got up to leave.
"Bye Krillen. Bye Ukyo,"Gohan said, making his way out the door.
"Bye Gohan,"Ukyo replied.
"So, Ukyo, want to get back to training?"Krillen asked.
Ukyo brightened, and nodded. They both got up and walked outside..........................................
Tendo Dojo, Late Afternoon......................................
They were about finished, learning the movements. Goku was teaching them the last few steps, before they would learn to before moving on, to sychrinazation. "All right! The last step, is to stretch you right leg out, like this,"he instructed, showing his students, what he was saying,"Then lean over, and press bend your arms, and extend your index fingers, on both hands, and touch them against your partners." They all followed the instructions.
Goku told them to practice these movements a few more times, before he approved it. He asked Goten and Trunks, and they approved as well. "Well guys! Great job! You've learned all the movements,"he paused,"But now, we've got to make sure you can all synchronize with eachother, otherwise, the Fusion won't work right. Believe me, you want to get it right, the first time,"Goku told them. They all gulped, wondering what happened if the Fusion went wrong.
Ranma was the first to speak up,"Um.....Goku....what happens if the Fusion....does, go wrong?"
Goku looked over to him,"Well, from what we've seen, once, it made a weak short and fat fused person, or tall and skinny, but that's all we've seen,"Goku explained. Ranma, Ryoga, and Akane expected something different, but that was really bad, if it went wrong.
Just then, Gohan flew down, into the yard. "Hey guys! So, how's it goin'?"he asked everyone.
Goku looked at him and smiled,"Well, they've learned the steps to it, now, we were going to work on doing the moves, in sync,"Goku explained to Gohan. Gohan nodded, and walked inside, and yawned, trying to find something to do, while the others trained. Goku looked in after his son. "Don't worry Gohan, after we're finished with this, I promise we'll do some training!"he called after his son.
"Great!"he called back, enthusiastically.
Goku turned back to his pupils,"All right! Shall we get started?" They all nodded......................
Open Field................................................
Vegeta still stood over his defeated pupil, waiting for her to get up again. She slowly pushed herself off the ground, and getting up. He looked over to Cologne,"Can I leave now hag?! I'm tired of this, at least for today. Let me rest and recover from your aura of stupidity!"
"All right then Vegeta, but I'll come looking for you tommorow, if you don't come here first!"Cologne threatened.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever, old bat,"Vegeta replied about to fly off.
Shampoo was very angry, that they were supposed to be training, yet all he did was beat her up and block her attacks. "Wait! What this have to do, with training?!"she calld after him.
He turned around,"Look, today, I attacked you, and you did your best to dodge them. Now, since those attacks were so fast, it will be easier to dodge slower attacks. And as for me beating you up, that will make you more resistant to weaker attacks, and besides, I have to have some fun, don't I?"ask said, laughing, as he flew away.
Shampoo looked angrier at that last statement. She turned to Cologne,"Great Grandmother! Why you bring jerk man to train Shampoo?!"she asked, very loudly.
Cologne looked at Shampoo. "Tell me Shampoo, do you like being weaker than Akane?" Shampoo just stood there. "I didn't think so. BEsides, my options are limited. It's not every day, wait, it's a once in a life-time chance, to find a great warrior, like him, to train you. So, if you want to get stronger, I suggest you deal with Vegeta, and make the best of it,"Cologne told Shampoo. Shampoo nodded, and they headed back to the Cafe.........................................
Another Familiar Open Field........................................................
Krillen and Ukyo stood in a field again. They had just come back from the Tendo Dojo, and Ukyo was eager to get started. "So Ukyo, what should we start on?"Krillen asked.
Ukyo thought for a moment, then snapped her fingers. "I want to learn how to fly!"she said, enthusiastically.
Krillen didn't look one bit surprised,'Yup, it's always flying first. Heh, that's fine with me though,'Krillen thought. "All right then! Let's get started. Do you know how to control your energy?"Krillen asked, starting out.
"You mean like energy attacks? Not specifically,"Ukyo relplied shaking her head.
'This could take longer than I thought. Oh well,'Krillen thought, shrugging, and startign the training...............................
The Tendo Dojo, Early Evening.............................................
Ranma and Ryoga were practicing, doing the steps to Fusion, in-sync. They had been doing fairly well, thus far, however, they seemed to be the slightest off, towards the end. "You're still off right there. Try again,"Goku instructed. They had tryed fixing this problem a few times already, but they were still having trouble getting it together. They both seemed to be getting frustrated, after not being able to get it right, so many times. But this time, they got it right. Goku didn't say anything, because he wanted them to continue, and he didnt want to make them mess up.
They finished it perfectly, from what Goku could see. Goten and Trunks nodded, in agreement. "All right guys! You did it that time! Now, try it all the way through, but don't actually do it,"Goku told the two. They nodded, and started the dance.
When they got to the appropriate part of the dance, they yelled,"FUUUUUUUUUUU-SION HAAAAAAAAA!!!"and finished it. It had been near perfect. Goku told them to do it again, and they complied. They did they dance, two more times, before all three Saiyans were satisfied.
Goku looked at the two seriously. "Do you two think you're ready to try it for real?"he asked them, surprising everyone. The two looked shocked at this, then got serious. "If you don't think you're ready, then don't do it. This isn't an easy technique to learn. Only do it, if you think you're both ready,"Goku told them. The two thought for a minute, looked at eachother, then slightly nodded. Then they turned and nodded towards Goku. Goku nodded back to them.
The two took up their stances, and powered up to their full. Their auras were glowing around them, they struggled, to keep their powers at their fullest. They started the dance, which was flawless. Then, the two started the final steps of the move. Then, they started to chant,"FUUUUUUUUUUU-SION HAAAAAAAA!!" There was a bright flash, and Akane covered her eyes.
After a few seconds, everyone waited, in anticipation, for the stirred up dust to clear, and the flash to disappate. Everyone was holding their breath. In the middle of the cloud of dust, you could slightly make out a figure, standing in the middle of where Ranma and Ryoga had been. What was once two martial arstists, was now one. The dust cleared, and they saw, that Ranma and Ryoga, had made a Perfect Fusion.
The figure stepped out of the dust, and everyone took on what they saw. He had the clothes, that all Fused warriors had. He had a stern look on his face. His hair was like Ryoga, except for one thing. They saw a pig-tail, blowing in the wind. He had Ranma's eyes, but the rest of the face, resembled Ryoga's. When he smiled, you could see two fangs, on his teethline. The figure was much more musclebound than the two had naturally been. Goku, Goten, Trunks, and Gohan(Who was now outside)wereamazed, that they had been able to perform a Perfect Fusion, on their first real try. None of them had done it on the first try. The figure, slowly walked towards Goku and stopped in front of him. Goku looked down at the Fused being, who extended a hand his way, and said,"Name's Ryonma,"he said, in both Ranma and Ryoga;s voices. His frown turned into a smirk.
"Well, nice job there, Ryonma,"Goku said, returning a smirk of his own, and taking Ryonma's hand.
Akane had merely watched in awe, as her fiancee, and one of her best friend, became one person. That dual voice made her shiver. It was more shocking that she thought it would be. "That-that voice. It's both of them...........I can't believe that it's Ranma......and Ryoga.............Ryonma?"she said, softly to herself. It was hard to see those two doing anything together, let alone, merging.
Soun, Genma, Nabiki, and Kasumi, had rushed outside, when they had heard Ranma and Ryoga yelling. They all gaped at, what appeared to be a mix between Ranma and Ryoga, standing in front of Goku. "Ranma? Ryoga?"they all asked, in unison, all equally confused.
Whoever they saw out there looked over to them, his pig-tail behind him. They saw Ranma's eyes, but the face looked like Ryoga's. He smirked and said,"Actually, it's Ryonma."
Their eyes all widened considerably at this. Soun burst into tears,"Oh, how can we join the schools, when we only have half of Ranma?! Now it will have to be the Saotome, Tendo, Hibiki School! Woe is me!"
Kasumi tried to calm her father, when Goku said,"Whoa, whoa! This effect only lasts for thirty minutes at a time!"
Soun looked up, and seemed to get better pretty fast,"Oh*sniff*well then, that's different."
"But these, are different!"Goku said, takin out two earrings, with small yellow balls on the connected to them.
"What are those?"Ryonma asked, in his dual voice.
"These,"Goku said,"Are Portara Earrings. They are another way to Fuse two warriors, without the complications of height, power, and you don't have to do the dance. It makes a different form of the two people Fused, than the dance would too,"Goku explained to them.
"Why didn't you just let us use those?!"Ryonma asked, frustrated, that he might have learned the whole dance, when it could have been a lot easier.
"You didn't let me finish,"Goku said,"These earrings,"he said, smirking, and holding up the earrings,"Make the effect permanent."
Ryonma looked in shock,"You mean, if you put those things on, you'll*gulp*be stuck Fused forever?"he asked in shock.
"Yup,Goku said, nodding, and putting the earrings away. "Vegeta and I had to do that once,"he said.
Now Ryonma had gotten confused. "But I thought you just said the effects were permanent. How did you-"
He was cut off, when Goku held up his hand. "There were speacial cicumstances. Kind of complicated. We were fighting an evil being called, Majiin Buu, and he could absorb people. He absorbed us, when we put on the earrings, and the effects were cancelled, so we weren't stuck like that forever,"Goku explained.
"Wait, can you do the Fusion Dance with someone?"Ryonma asked.
"Actually yes, with Vegeta,"Goku told him.
"What's your name in that form?"Ryonma asked Goku, wondering about other Fused Warriors.
"When we're Fused, we're called Gogeta,"Goku said. "When we put on the Portara Earrings, we're called, Veggito."
"Ah, I see. I wouldn't mind seeing that,"Ryonma said.
"Vegeta doesn't like doing it too much, but I suppose I could see what I could do! Well, you've got thirty minutes, we don't want to waste them talking! We should check out your new abilities,"Goku suggested.
"Oh yeah! That's right!"Ryonma exclaimed, remembering his time limit as well.
Ryonma turned around, only to be confronted by Akane, looking up at him. She seemed kind of nervous about Fusion, now that she saw it. Then she spoke to him,"Ranma.......Ryoga....is that really you?"
"Uh....yeah...kinda,"he said, trying to hide that he was blushing. 'What's wrong with me?!'he thought to himself,'I feel so weird! Ryoga's weakness for Akane must be kicking in! This must be what Ryoga feels like, when he's around Akane! Okay, just stay cool,'he thought, keeping cool, as best he could. "I-it's both of us,"he replied again. Akane continued to stare at him. 'I don't know how much longer I can keep this up!'he thought, desperately.
Akane stared at him again, for a minute, before looking back down, and sitting to watch what was going to happen.
'Phew,'Ryonma thought,'That was a close one!'
He walked over to where Goku was, and started to power up, when an, all-too-familiar, call was heard, coming from over the wall,"SAOTOME YOU SORCEROR! PREPARE YOURSELF!"
Ryonma looked to the wall. "Why now Kuno?! Why now?!"he asked himself. Soon enough, Kuno bounded over the wall,"SAOTO-"he cut himself off, when he caught sight of Ryonma. "Thou looks like Saotome, but different. Who art thou?!"Kuno asked, pointing his sword at Ryonma. Ryonma was about to say, when Kuno blurted out,"Ah but it is proper to give one's own name first! Then I shall give mine!" He went into his whole intoduction speech, and ended with,"And who art thou, newcomer?"
Ryonma gave a sigh,"I am Ryonma, and I don't have time for you Kuno! Would you come back later?! Maybe Saotome will be back,"he said, almost chuckling.
"Alas, I must find Saotome now, for he has...."he continued on like this, until Ryonma decided enough was enough.
"THAT'S ENOUGH ALREADY!"Ryonma shouted. He launched a Light-Blueish Green energy ball at Kuno, knocking him faaaaaar away. "Good gosh!"Ryonma said. "Now, let's get on with this,"he said, turning back, and starting to power.
Goku wanted to see just how powerful the Fusion had made the two fighters. "HaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!"Ryonma yelled, as an aura, much the same color as the energy ball, that blasted Kuno, had been. As this aura got larger, a crater started to form, in the ground, underneath Ryonma. The wind was picking up, and sparks were flying around him, as he yelled, bringing on more power. Goku was surprised. Their power was far exceeding what he thought it would. Then, something happened, that he really didn't expect. Ryonma's aura flared, and turned red. Goku couldn't believe it! He were doing the Kaiyo Ken! Goku could see Ryonma's muscles pulsing, from this sudden surge of energy. "He doesn't know what he's doing! He could burn out his body, with all that energy. He felt his power peak, and Ryonma stood smirking, glowing red.
"RYONMA! BE CAREFUL! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!"Goku yelled.
Ryonma looked over,"What?" He looked himself over, his muscles had become quite a bit larger, and they were pulsing. His heart was racing and he knew it. He let out a breath, and tried to calm his energy. The red aura flickered, then went back, to its blueish-green. Ryonma watched his muscles retract, and relax, and he could feel his pounding heart slow its beat. "Wha-waht did I do?"he asked, slightly out of breath.
"I-I think you discovered the Kaiyo Ken Technique.....all on your own,"Goku said, with shock and amazement. The rest of the Saiyans looked at him in disbelief.
"He couldn't possibly have dad!"Gohan shouted.
"I-I recognize that move. That....was the Kaiyo Ken,"Goku said, still in utter shock.
Ryonma looked around, completely comfused. "What?! What a Kaiyo Ken Technique?!"he asked, exsaperated.
Goku answered him, still looking down, at the ground,"The Kaiyo Ken Technique, is a rare move, that temporarily increases, your strength, speed, senses, stamina, everything. It takes a lot out of you though,"Goku explained. He paused,"However, there's always the off chance, you could burn out your body or kill yourself.
Ryonma went wide-eyed at this,"WHAT?!"
"Yeah, it's dangerous to you, and your opponent,"Goku told them. "I learned it from a friend of mine, King Kai. I....don't know how you could have performed it, without even knowwhat it is though......"Goku said, baffled. "I'll bet that's not all you can do either. Every Fused Warrior, has some special attack. For example, Gotenks has two main attacks, The Super Ghost Kamekaze Attack, and the Shine Shine Missile. They are both very powerful attacks,"Goku told him.
"Well, I don't know,"Ryonma said, scratching his head.
Just then, a voice was heard fromt he wall behind them. It was Cologne's. "W-was that you son-in-"she cut herself off. She had seen the pig-tail, and automatically assumed it was Ranma, but the person she saw, turned his had, to look at her, she had the feeling it was not. 'That looks somewhat like son-in-law, but somehow, it's not him...........'Cologne thought to herself.
Then, Shampoo jumped up on the wall behind Cologne. "Great Grandmother what is- What?! R-Ranma?"she asked, tilting her head, looking at the Fused Person before her. 'He look kind of like husband, but not husband at same time.....'Shampoo thought along the same lines as her great grandmother. She jumped down into the yard, and looked the muscle-bound pigtailed boy over. "Who are you?"she asked him, convincing herself, it wasn't Ranma.
He looked at her, and said,"My name's Ryonma." Shampoo and Cologne were verytaken aback by Ranma, and Ryoga's voices, coming from this person.
Cologne looked to Goku,"Goku, perhaps you can explain who this is,"she said, looking to him.
"This,"he motioned to Ryonma,"is Ryonma. To put it simpler, this is Ranma, and Ryoga,"he said, grinning.
Shampoo was very surprised at the statement. She looked at Ryonma, who didn't really like her eyeing him over,"What?"he asked, in his dual voice.
She looked straight into his eyes and said,"Ranma in there?"
"Uuuuh, yeah, kinda. So's Ryoga though....."he said, wishing he could get away from her stare.
Shampoo burst into tears. "Why Ranma and Ryoga same person?! How Shampoo marry now?!"she continued to sob, which, having Ranma and Ryoga in him, made Ryonma feel like the lowest person in the world. He couldn't stand to see a girl cry. "Whoa , whoa, wait Shampoo! You don't know the whole story!"he said, putting his hands up, trying to calm her down.
She gave him the evil eye,"This all Pig boy's fault isn't it? Force Ranma into this!"she yelled.
"Wha?!"Ryonma yelled, knowing what was next.
Shampoo took out her Bonboris and chased after, a running Ryonma, shouting,"LET RANMA GO! STINKING PIG BOY!"
While Ryonma said,"Wait Shampoo! You don't get it!"
Meanwhile, Cologne was talking to Goku,"So, you say that is son-in- law, and Ryoga?"she asked Goku.
"Yes, they used a special technique, called Fusion, where two fighters of the same size and strength, do a dance, and chant the words, Fusion Ha, and combine into one super fighter, for thirty minutes. He says his name is Ryonma, and he was tesing out his power,"Goku explained to Cologne.
'How could I use that technique to my advantage? Hmmmmmmmm....."Cologne thought to herself. Then she realized, that Ryonma, was being chased all over the yard, by her great granddaughter. "Shampoo! Stop!"she yelled.
Shampoo stopped to look at her,"But great grandmother! Pig boy force Ranma into some spell!"she yelled back, as Ryonma stopped, see that he wasn't being chased, anymore.
"No Shampoo, it's a technique. Ranma and Ryoga combined into one person. You've been chasing him,"Cologne said, pointing to Ryonma.
"I chasing Ranma?"she asked, still holding her weapon in mid-air.
"Yes, and Ryoga,"Cologne answered back.
Shampoo's eyes watered again. 'Oh, now what did I do?'Ryonma said, feeling bad again.
Next thing he knew, he was glomped to the ground, with Shampoo, saying,"Oh Ranma! Please forgive Shampoo! Shampoo no mean to hurt you!"
"That's-gak!-Okay. Nggh!But could you please get off of me?"he asked, his voice, only a whisper. Shampoo didn't seem to hear him.
He saw Akane walk up to him. He couldn't move. He was pinned to the ground by Shampoo. He saw her very angry. He was about to get pounded. Then, a statement, that sounded surprisingly like Ryoga blurted out,"Please forgive me Akane!"and he shut his eyes, waiting for her fist.
Akane's eyes had widened at that last statement. "R-Ryoga?"she asked herself, more than anyone, before withdrawing her fist. Then she yelled,"Shampoo! Would you get off him?!"
Shampoo looked up,"Why should Shampoo?!"she asked her.
Akane was about to get rough with her, when Cologne's voice carried across the yard,"Shampoo, get off of him?!"
"Yes, great grandmother,"she said, reluctantly getting off Ryonma, who was frozen stiff on the ground..................................
A Near-By Street........................................
"This won't take long Ucchan. I just felt a strange energy signature from the Tendo Dojo, and I want to see if everything's okay,"Krillen said, while running along the street, slow enough, so Ukyo could keep up.
"N-no problem Krillen-kun. Besides, f something's going on, I don't wanna miss it"Ukyo replied!"a little out of breath. 'Krillen's faster than he looks!'Ukyo thought, watching the man, in front of her, as he ran, speedily along the streets.
They soon reached the back wall of the Tendo Dojo, and jumped over it......................
Tendo Dojo..............................................
Goku was explaining Fusion, more, in-depth to Cologne, when he sensed Krillen and Ukyo jump over the wall. They both turned to see that two, in front of them. "Oh hey Krillen! Hey Ukuo! What brings you two here?"Goku asked, waving to his friends.
"Hey Goku. What's going on? I just felt a really strange energy signature, and I wanted to see what it was,"Krillen told him,"And Ucchan said she'd come with me."
"Well, it was-"he was cut off by Ukyo's shout.
"RAN-CHAN!!"she yelled, running over to what looked like Ranma. She knelt down, and looked at him. "What's he wearing? Strange. Ran-chan! Wake up!"she yelled. Then she looked at his mouth, which was hanging open. She saw two, little familiar fangs. "Since when does RAN-CHAN HAVE FANGS?!"she said, in an escalating voice. She looked at his hair. "His hair seems different, but there's his pig-tail,"she said to herself. She looked at his eyes,"Those are Ran-chan's eyes, but his face looks like...RYOGA?! No like a mix of the two........ WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO RAN-CHAN?!"she yelled, trying to find out what had happened to her fiancee.
Krillen walked over to her. "Um, Ucchan. This may come as a shock to you.....but that's both of them,"Krillen said.
"What?!"she asked, trying to figure out what Krillen meant.
"Remember how they were learning the Fusion Technique..........well, Ranma and Ryoga did it right!"he said, slightly chuckling, putting his hand on the back of his head.
She was shocked. Her mouth hung open for a moment, when Krillen said,"Don't worry! It only lasts for thirty minutes." Ukyo let out a sigh of relief, then Krillen muttered,"Unless they used the earrings. Then they're stuck like this forever." He was joking of course, but Ukyo didn't know that.
"WHAT?!"Ukyo yelled. "WHAT-DO-YOU-MEAN?!"
Krillen stepped back,"Hey! Calm down! It was only a joke! They didn't use the earrings! Why would they do that? Hehehe"he laughed.
Ukyo, apparently, didn't think it was as funny. She tried to hit him with her spatula. He narrowly dodged. "GAH! UCCHAN! I WAS ONLY JOKING!"he said, very surprised. She sat back down on the ground, and put her hand, on her forehead. He sat down beside her. "Yo, Ucchan, I was only kidding. I didn't mean to make you upset!"he said trying to cheer her up.
She smiled at him. "I know, sorry Krillen-kun,"Ukyo said, feeling better now.
"Aww, it's saright! My fault anyway,"Krillen said, returning the smile.
They were about to talk some more, when they heard a muttering noise from behind them. They both turned around, to see Ryonma, put his hand on his head, and try to sit up. "Darn it! Shampoo almost crushed me!"he said, his dual voice freaking Ukyo out a little.
"What the?!"she yelled, surprised by his voice.
Ryonma looked over to see Ukyo and Krillen. "Ukyo? Krillen? What are you guys doing over here?"he asked.
"Krillen said he felt some strange energy surge, and he wanted to come see. I guess it was you, huh Ranma-honey?"she said, with a smile.
"Ryonma looked over to her,"Actually, I'm Ryonma,"he said. "Or at least, when I'm Fused,"he told her.
"Oh,"she said, still wanting to call him Ran-Chan.
Suddenly, Ryonma glowed white, then there was a flash, and when it disappated, Ranma and Ryoga were sitting on the ground.
"Whoa, that was interesting,"Ranma said, looking himself over.
"Got that right,"Ryoga said, also looking himself over.
"Ran-Chan!"Ukyo said, happily, before hugging him.
"Whoa! What'd I do?"he asked.
Goku walked over,"Well, I guess your time ran out, huh guys?"
Ryoga,"Yeah, I guess so,"he said, getting up.
After Ukyo stopped hugging him, Ranma did the same,"Yeah."
"Sooo, what'd you guys think of that?"Goku asked, ready to hear their opinions about Fusion.
"Well, to tell you the truth.......THAT WAS AWESOME! Even if I did have to Fuse with Ryoga, it was worth it! I felt so powerful!"Ranma said, complimenting their Fusion.
"Ranma has a point. It was worth Fusing with him, to feel that. Thank you for teaching us Goku!"Ryoga said, happy that it had gone so well.
"I knew you two'd like it!"Goku said, smiling at them. "But don't think your Fusion Training should stop here! You've made one, succesful transformation. You've got to make a habit of getting it right, so you never mess up." They nodded. Goku turned to Akane,"So Akane, ready to start?"he asked her. She nodded. "All right then! I'll go get the water!"Goku said, smiling, running in the house for cold water.
"Oh boy,"Ranma said. "Here we go again!"

Tendo Dojo, After Lunch......................................
Goku and everyone else walked outside, ready to begin training, once again. Goku let out a sigh, looked up, and smiled. He rotated his neck, then looked back down to his pupils. "Aaaall right! Everyone ready to get started again?"Goku asked, with a smile. They all nodded, eager to move on.
Gohan tapped his father on the shoulder. Goku turned to look at his son, who said,"Hey dad, since you, Goten, and Trunks will be training and all, I think I'll take a look around town."
"Yeah sure Gohan. See ya later!"Goku said back, smiling.
"Bye!"Gohan called, as he rose into the air, and blasted off, to see what he could find.
Goku turned back to his pupils. "All riiight! Where were we......Oh yeah! Let's get started!"Goku said, resuming the Fusion Training............................................
In The Skys of Nerima.........................................
Gohan was looking around, on the town below. "This city's some different than the ones back home!"He said to himself, looking over the city below him. "No cars, no skyscrapers, it's kinda weird,"He said to himself. He looked around and saw a large field, with a familiar looking figure, standing in it. His eyes widened at this. "That's Vegeta all right, I can sense his energy. What's he doing out here?"Gohan wondered. He decided to check it out. Vegeta obviously knew he was there anyway..............................
In The Field Below...........................................
Vegeta told Shampoo to attack him again. He, once again, blocked all her attacks, or took them, which didn't phase him at all. Shampoo finally put her hands on he leg, and panted from exhaustion. She looked up at the scowling man. "Why we do this? How it-"she cut herself off, when Vegeta's expression changed, and he looked up past her. She wondered what he could be staring at, and looked up to see.
Her eyes widened, when she saw the boy, she had seen at the Tendo Dojo! 'What he doing here?!'she wondered to herself.
He set down near Vegeta, and looked at him strangely. "Vegeta, since when do you give training classes?"the boy asked chuckling.
Vegeta's face darkened at this. "Silence Gohan!"he said, his voice very dangerous.
"Whoa Vegeta!"he said, putting his hands up in front of him,"No need to get mad! I just saw you down here, and wondered what was going on!"Gohan amended.
"Well, I might as well tell you. This old hag finally annoyed me enough, to train her wealking of a great grandaughter!"Vegeta said, viciously.
Gohan watched the tired looking girl, standing behind Vegeta, get extremely mad, and run at him. Vegeta didn't seem to notice, but when her fist neared his head, he merely caught it, and threw her in front of him. She landed on the ground, and didn't attempt to get up, for a moment. Then Vegeta looked at her and said,"Never try to hit me from behind."
Gohan looked down, at the girl. "Well, good luck! Vegeta's a pretty hard teacher!"he said to her. He waved, then flew off again.
Shampoo stared after him, wondering who he was, before Vegeta ordered her to get up again............................................
Ucchan's okonomiyaki, After The Lunch Rush.........................................................
Krillen, once again, slumped down on a chair, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and let out a sigh of relief. "Wow. I don't know what was busier, yesterday, or today!"he exclaimed, looking out the window.
Ukyo was over, cooking their own lunch. This was the earliest time they could eat it, since they were so busy, up until then. "You seem to be catching on quite well,"Ukyo told him. He had definately improved in the last couple of days, and had performed all the tasks she had given him.
"Thanks,"he said, still looking out the window. He smiled though. Then. his expression changed, to surprise, when he saw someone walking outside. Then he laughed and smiled again.
"What is it Krillen?"Ukyo asked, wondering what he was laughing at.
Krillen rushed out the door to talk to whoever was outside. Ukyo thought she had seen him before. The person Krillen was talking to, turned, and when he saw him, he smiled and laughed as well. Krillen motioned inside, and the boy shrugged, and nodded, following Krillen in, to the restaurant. "Uh, hi!"the boy said, greeting her. He smiled and waved at her.
Ukyo noticed, he was quite cute. "Hi,"she said back. "I saw you at the Tendo Dojo right?"she asked, remembering him.
"Oh, yeah I'm staying there,"Gohan replied, sitting down, with Krillen.
"Gohan, right?"Ukyo asked, trying to remeber the boy's name.
"Yeah,"Gohan replied.
"Sooooo, what brings you around this part of town Gohan?"Krillen asked him.
Gohan looked over at him and said,"Well, dad, Goten, and Trunks, are teaching everyone Fusion, and I didn't really have anything to do, so I figured I'd look around, see what I can find in this town,"Gohan said, telling them why he was here. "So I was just walking by, when you came out,"Gohan said, motioning to Krillen. "Oh Krillen! You'd never guess what I just saw!"Gohan said, looking extremely amused.
Krillen looked back and smiled. "And just what may that be?"
"I just saw Vegeta, in a big field, here's the funny part, actually training someone!"Gohan said, still slightly amazed.
Krillen gaped,"You're kidding right?! And it wasn't Trunks?"
Gohan shook his head,"Nope, some blue haired girl, with some short old woman on a staff."
Ukyo looked up, very surprised at this. "You mean Shampoo?!"
Gohan looked at her strangely. "Actually, I'm not sure. I didn't catch her name,"he said, looking up.
'Darn it!'Ukyo thought. 'Trying to get stronger than me huh? Well, I'll show her!'Ukyo thought, knowing that, now, she would train, extra hard. 'Oh well, I'll worry about it later,'she thought, sighing. She gave Krillen and Gohan some Okonomiyaki and took her own.
Gohan looked at it surprised. "What's this for? I don't have any money!"Gohan told her.
Ukyo looked up and smiled,"That's okay, this ones on the house!"she told him.
Gohan looked at her again, then nodded,"O-okay,"he said. He quickly scarfed the food down, like any Saiyan would, but he didn't ask for more. He didn't want to seem greedy, and it would be a good enough snack, for now. He'd hold until dinner. "Wow! That was great! Thanks a lot!"Gohan said, complimenting her cooking.
"No problem,"Ukyo said, smiling.
Gohan stayed and talked for another hour, then got up to leave. "I should probably be getting back,"he said, stretching. "Besides, I'm sure you two have something to do."
"All right,"Krillen said, smilng and waving, as Gohan got up to leave.
"Bye Krillen. Bye Ukyo,"Gohan said, making his way out the door.
"Bye Gohan,"Ukyo replied.
"So, Ukyo, want to get back to training?"Krillen asked.
Ukyo brightened, and nodded. They both got up and walked outside..........................................
Tendo Dojo, Late Afternoon......................................
They were about finished, learning the movements. Goku was teaching them the last few steps, before they would learn to before moving on, to sychrinazation. "All right! The last step, is to stretch you right leg out, like this,"he instructed, showing his students, what he was saying,"Then lean over, and press bend your arms, and extend your index fingers, on both hands, and touch them against your partners." They all followed the instructions.
Goku told them to practice these movements a few more times, before he approved it. He asked Goten and Trunks, and they approved as well. "Well guys! Great job! You've learned all the movements,"he paused,"But now, we've got to make sure you can all synchronize with eachother, otherwise, the Fusion won't work right. Believe me, you want to get it right, the first time,"Goku told them. They all gulped, wondering what happened if the Fusion went wrong.
Ranma was the first to speak up,"Um.....Goku....what happens if the Fusion....does, go wrong?"
Goku looked over to him,"Well, from what we've seen, once, it made a weak short and fat fused person, or tall and skinny, but that's all we've seen,"Goku explained. Ranma, Ryoga, and Akane expected something different, but that was really bad, if it went wrong.
Just then, Gohan flew down, into the yard. "Hey guys! So, how's it goin'?"he asked everyone.
Goku looked at him and smiled,"Well, they've learned the steps to it, now, we were going to work on doing the moves, in sync,"Goku explained to Gohan. Gohan nodded, and walked inside, and yawned, trying to find something to do, while the others trained. Goku looked in after his son. "Don't worry Gohan, after we're finished with this, I promise we'll do some training!"he called after his son.
"Great!"he called back, enthusiastically.
Goku turned back to his pupils,"All right! Shall we get started?" They all nodded......................
Open Field................................................
Vegeta still stood over his defeated pupil, waiting for her to get up again. She slowly pushed herself off the ground, and getting up. He looked over to Cologne,"Can I leave now hag?! I'm tired of this, at least for today. Let me rest and recover from your aura of stupidity!"
"All right then Vegeta, but I'll come looking for you tommorow, if you don't come here first!"Cologne threatened.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever, old bat,"Vegeta replied about to fly off.
Shampoo was very angry, that they were supposed to be training, yet all he did was beat her up and block her attacks. "Wait! What this have to do, with training?!"she calld after him.
He turned around,"Look, today, I attacked you, and you did your best to dodge them. Now, since those attacks were so fast, it will be easier to dodge slower attacks. And as for me beating you up, that will make you more resistant to weaker attacks, and besides, I have to have some fun, don't I?"ask said, laughing, as he flew away.
Shampoo looked angrier at that last statement. She turned to Cologne,"Great Grandmother! Why you bring jerk man to train Shampoo?!"she asked, very loudly.
Cologne looked at Shampoo. "Tell me Shampoo, do you like being weaker than Akane?" Shampoo just stood there. "I didn't think so. BEsides, my options are limited. It's not every day, wait, it's a once in a life-time chance, to find a great warrior, like him, to train you. So, if you want to get stronger, I suggest you deal with Vegeta, and make the best of it,"Cologne told Shampoo. Shampoo nodded, and they headed back to the Cafe.........................................
Another Familiar Open Field........................................................
Krillen and Ukyo stood in a field again. They had just come back from the Tendo Dojo, and Ukyo was eager to get started. "So Ukyo, what should we start on?"Krillen asked.
Ukyo thought for a moment, then snapped her fingers. "I want to learn how to fly!"she said, enthusiastically.
Krillen didn't look one bit surprised,'Yup, it's always flying first. Heh, that's fine with me though,'Krillen thought. "All right then! Let's get started. Do you know how to control your energy?"Krillen asked, starting out.
"You mean like energy attacks? Not specifically,"Ukyo relplied shaking her head.
'This could take longer than I thought. Oh well,'Krillen thought, shrugging, and startign the training...............................
The Tendo Dojo, Early Evening.............................................
Ranma and Ryoga were practicing, doing the steps to Fusion, in-sync. They had been doing fairly well, thus far, however, they seemed to be the slightest off, towards the end. "You're still off right there. Try again,"Goku instructed. They had tryed fixing this problem a few times already, but they were still having trouble getting it together. They both seemed to be getting frustrated, after not being able to get it right, so many times. But this time, they got it right. Goku didn't say anything, because he wanted them to continue, and he didnt want to make them mess up.
They finished it perfectly, from what Goku could see. Goten and Trunks nodded, in agreement. "All right guys! You did it that time! Now, try it all the way through, but don't actually do it,"Goku told the two. They nodded, and started the dance.
When they got to the appropriate part of the dance, they yelled,"FUUUUUUUUUUU-SION HAAAAAAAAA!!!"and finished it. It had been near perfect. Goku told them to do it again, and they complied. They did they dance, two more times, before all three Saiyans were satisfied.
Goku looked at the two seriously. "Do you two think you're ready to try it for real?"he asked them, surprising everyone. The two looked shocked at this, then got serious. "If you don't think you're ready, then don't do it. This isn't an easy technique to learn. Only do it, if you think you're both ready,"Goku told them. The two thought for a minute, looked at eachother, then slightly nodded. Then they turned and nodded towards Goku. Goku nodded back to them.
The two took up their stances, and powered up to their full. Their auras were glowing around them, they struggled, to keep their powers at their fullest. They started the dance, which was flawless. Then, the two started the final steps of the move. Then, they started to chant,"FUUUUUUUUUUU-SION HAAAAAAAA!!" There was a bright flash, and Akane covered her eyes.
After a few seconds, everyone waited, in anticipation, for the stirred up dust to clear, and the flash to disappate. Everyone was holding their breath. In the middle of the cloud of dust, you could slightly make out a figure, standing in the middle of where Ranma and Ryoga had been. What was once two martial arstists, was now one. The dust cleared, and they saw, that Ranma and Ryoga, had made a Perfect Fusion.
The figure stepped out of the dust, and everyone took on what they saw. He had the clothes, that all Fused warriors had. He had a stern look on his face. His hair was like Ryoga, except for one thing. They saw a pig-tail, blowing in the wind. He had Ranma's eyes, but the rest of the face, resembled Ryoga's. When he smiled, you could see two fangs, on his teethline. The figure was much more musclebound than the two had naturally been. Goku, Goten, Trunks, and Gohan(Who was now outside)wereamazed, that they had been able to perform a Perfect Fusion, on their first real try. None of them had done it on the first try. The figure, slowly walked towards Goku and stopped in front of him. Goku looked down at the Fused being, who extended a hand his way, and said,"Name's Ryonma,"he said, in both Ranma and Ryoga;s voices. His frown turned into a smirk.
"Well, nice job there, Ryonma,"Goku said, returning a smirk of his own, and taking Ryonma's hand.
Akane had merely watched in awe, as her fiancee, and one of her best friend, became one person. That dual voice made her shiver. It was more shocking that she thought it would be. "That-that voice. It's both of them...........I can't believe that it's Ranma......and Ryoga.............Ryonma?"she said, softly to herself. It was hard to see those two doing anything together, let alone, merging.
Soun, Genma, Nabiki, and Kasumi, had rushed outside, when they had heard Ranma and Ryoga yelling. They all gaped at, what appeared to be a mix between Ranma and Ryoga, standing in front of Goku. "Ranma? Ryoga?"they all asked, in unison, all equally confused.
Whoever they saw out there looked over to them, his pig-tail behind him. They saw Ranma's eyes, but the face looked like Ryoga's. He smirked and said,"Actually, it's Ryonma."
Their eyes all widened considerably at this. Soun burst into tears,"Oh, how can we join the schools, when we only have half of Ranma?! Now it will have to be the Saotome, Tendo, Hibiki School! Woe is me!"
Kasumi tried to calm her father, when Goku said,"Whoa, whoa! This effect only lasts for thirty minutes at a time!"
Soun looked up, and seemed to get better pretty fast,"Oh*sniff*well then, that's different."
"But these, are different!"Goku said, takin out two earrings, with small yellow balls on the connected to them.
"What are those?"Ryonma asked, in his dual voice.
"These,"Goku said,"Are Portara Earrings. They are another way to Fuse two warriors, without the complications of height, power, and you don't have to do the dance. It makes a different form of the two people Fused, than the dance would too,"Goku explained to them.
"Why didn't you just let us use those?!"Ryonma asked, frustrated, that he might have learned the whole dance, when it could have been a lot easier.
"You didn't let me finish,"Goku said,"These earrings,"he said, smirking, and holding up the earrings,"Make the effect permanent."
Ryonma looked in shock,"You mean, if you put those things on, you'll*gulp*be stuck Fused forever?"he asked in shock.
"Yup,Goku said, nodding, and putting the earrings away. "Vegeta and I had to do that once,"he said.
Now Ryonma had gotten confused. "But I thought you just said the effects were permanent. How did you-"
He was cut off, when Goku held up his hand. "There were speacial cicumstances. Kind of complicated. We were fighting an evil being called, Majiin Buu, and he could absorb people. He absorbed us, when we put on the earrings, and the effects were cancelled, so we weren't stuck like that forever,"Goku explained.
"Wait, can you do the Fusion Dance with someone?"Ryonma asked.
"Actually yes, with Vegeta,"Goku told him.
"What's your name in that form?"Ryonma asked Goku, wondering about other Fused Warriors.
"When we're Fused, we're called Gogeta,"Goku said. "When we put on the Portara Earrings, we're called, Veggito."
"Ah, I see. I wouldn't mind seeing that,"Ryonma said.
"Vegeta doesn't like doing it too much, but I suppose I could see what I could do! Well, you've got thirty minutes, we don't want to waste them talking! We should check out your new abilities,"Goku suggested.
"Oh yeah! That's right!"Ryonma exclaimed, remembering his time limit as well.
Ryonma turned around, only to be confronted by Akane, looking up at him. She seemed kind of nervous about Fusion, now that she saw it. Then she spoke to him,"Ranma.......Ryoga....is that really you?"
"Uh....yeah...kinda,"he said, trying to hide that he was blushing. 'What's wrong with me?!'he thought to himself,'I feel so weird! Ryoga's weakness for Akane must be kicking in! This must be what Ryoga feels like, when he's around Akane! Okay, just stay cool,'he thought, keeping cool, as best he could. "I-it's both of us,"he replied again. Akane continued to stare at him. 'I don't know how much longer I can keep this up!'he thought, desperately.
Akane stared at him again, for a minute, before looking back down, and sitting to watch what was going to happen.
'Phew,'Ryonma thought,'That was a close one!'
He walked over to where Goku was, and started to power up, when an, all-too-familiar, call was heard, coming from over the wall,"SAOTOME YOU SORCEROR! PREPARE YOURSELF!"
Ryonma looked to the wall. "Why now Kuno?! Why now?!"he asked himself. Soon enough, Kuno bounded over the wall,"SAOTO-"he cut himself off, when he caught sight of Ryonma. "Thou looks like Saotome, but different. Who art thou?!"Kuno asked, pointing his sword at Ryonma. Ryonma was about to say, when Kuno blurted out,"Ah but it is proper to give one's own name first! Then I shall give mine!" He went into his whole intoduction speech, and ended with,"And who art thou, newcomer?"
Ryonma gave a sigh,"I am Ryonma, and I don't have time for you Kuno! Would you come back later?! Maybe Saotome will be back,"he said, almost chuckling.
"Alas, I must find Saotome now, for he has...."he continued on like this, until Ryonma decided enough was enough.
"THAT'S ENOUGH ALREADY!"Ryonma shouted. He launched a Light-Blueish Green energy ball at Kuno, knocking him faaaaaar away. "Good gosh!"Ryonma said. "Now, let's get on with this,"he said, turning back, and starting to power.
Goku wanted to see just how powerful the Fusion had made the two fighters. "HaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!"Ryonma yelled, as an aura, much the same color as the energy ball, that blasted Kuno, had been. As this aura got larger, a crater started to form, in the ground, underneath Ryonma. The wind was picking up, and sparks were flying around him, as he yelled, bringing on more power. Goku was surprised. Their power was far exceeding what he thought it would. Then, something happened, that he really didn't expect. Ryonma's aura flared, and turned red. Goku couldn't believe it! He were doing the Kaiyo Ken! Goku could see Ryonma's muscles pulsing, from this sudden surge of energy. "He doesn't know what he's doing! He could burn out his body, with all that energy. He felt his power peak, and Ryonma stood smirking, glowing red.
"RYONMA! BE CAREFUL! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!"Goku yelled.
Ryonma looked over,"What?" He looked himself over, his muscles had become quite a bit larger, and they were pulsing. His heart was racing and he knew it. He let out a breath, and tried to calm his energy. The red aura flickered, then went back, to its blueish-green. Ryonma watched his muscles retract, and relax, and he could feel his pounding heart slow its beat. "Wha-waht did I do?"he asked, slightly out of breath.
"I-I think you discovered the Kaiyo Ken Technique.....all on your own,"Goku said, with shock and amazement. The rest of the Saiyans looked at him in disbelief.
"He couldn't possibly have dad!"Gohan shouted.
"I-I recognize that move. That....was the Kaiyo Ken,"Goku said, still in utter shock.
Ryonma looked around, completely comfused. "What?! What a Kaiyo Ken Technique?!"he asked, exsaperated.
Goku answered him, still looking down, at the ground,"The Kaiyo Ken Technique, is a rare move, that temporarily increases, your strength, speed, senses, stamina, everything. It takes a lot out of you though,"Goku explained. He paused,"However, there's always the off chance, you could burn out your body or kill yourself.
Ryonma went wide-eyed at this,"WHAT?!"
"Yeah, it's dangerous to you, and your opponent,"Goku told them. "I learned it from a friend of mine, King Kai. I....don't know how you could have performed it, without even knowwhat it is though......"Goku said, baffled. "I'll bet that's not all you can do either. Every Fused Warrior, has some special attack. For example, Gotenks has two main attacks, The Super Ghost Kamekaze Attack, and the Shine Shine Missile. They are both very powerful attacks,"Goku told him.
"Well, I don't know,"Ryonma said, scratching his head.
Just then, a voice was heard fromt he wall behind them. It was Cologne's. "W-was that you son-in-"she cut herself off. She had seen the pig-tail, and automatically assumed it was Ranma, but the person she saw, turned his had, to look at her, she had the feeling it was not. 'That looks somewhat like son-in-law, but somehow, it's not him...........'Cologne thought to herself.
Then, Shampoo jumped up on the wall behind Cologne. "Great Grandmother what is- What?! R-Ranma?"she asked, tilting her head, looking at the Fused Person before her. 'He look kind of like husband, but not husband at same time.....'Shampoo thought along the same lines as her great grandmother. She jumped down into the yard, and looked the muscle-bound pigtailed boy over. "Who are you?"she asked him, convincing herself, it wasn't Ranma.
He looked at her, and said,"My name's Ryonma." Shampoo and Cologne were verytaken aback by Ranma, and Ryoga's voices, coming from this person.
Cologne looked to Goku,"Goku, perhaps you can explain who this is,"she said, looking to him.
"This,"he motioned to Ryonma,"is Ryonma. To put it simpler, this is Ranma, and Ryoga,"he said, grinning.
Shampoo was very surprised at the statement. She looked at Ryonma, who didn't really like her eyeing him over,"What?"he asked, in his dual voice.
She looked straight into his eyes and said,"Ranma in there?"
"Uuuuh, yeah, kinda. So's Ryoga though....."he said, wishing he could get away from her stare.
Shampoo burst into tears. "Why Ranma and Ryoga same person?! How Shampoo marry now?!"she continued to sob, which, having Ranma and Ryoga in him, made Ryonma feel like the lowest person in the world. He couldn't stand to see a girl cry. "Whoa , whoa, wait Shampoo! You don't know the whole story!"he said, putting his hands up, trying to calm her down.
She gave him the evil eye,"This all Pig boy's fault isn't it? Force Ranma into this!"she yelled.
"Wha?!"Ryonma yelled, knowing what was next.
Shampoo took out her Bonboris and chased after, a running Ryonma, shouting,"LET RANMA GO! STINKING PIG BOY!"
While Ryonma said,"Wait Shampoo! You don't get it!"
Meanwhile, Cologne was talking to Goku,"So, you say that is son-in- law, and Ryoga?"she asked Goku.
"Yes, they used a special technique, called Fusion, where two fighters of the same size and strength, do a dance, and chant the words, Fusion Ha, and combine into one super fighter, for thirty minutes. He says his name is Ryonma, and he was tesing out his power,"Goku explained to Cologne.
'How could I use that technique to my advantage? Hmmmmmmmm....."Cologne thought to herself. Then she realized, that Ryonma, was being chased all over the yard, by her great granddaughter. "Shampoo! Stop!"she yelled.
Shampoo stopped to look at her,"But great grandmother! Pig boy force Ranma into some spell!"she yelled back, as Ryonma stopped, see that he wasn't being chased, anymore.
"No Shampoo, it's a technique. Ranma and Ryoga combined into one person. You've been chasing him,"Cologne said, pointing to Ryonma.
"I chasing Ranma?"she asked, still holding her weapon in mid-air.
"Yes, and Ryoga,"Cologne answered back.
Shampoo's eyes watered again. 'Oh, now what did I do?'Ryonma said, feeling bad again.
Next thing he knew, he was glomped to the ground, with Shampoo, saying,"Oh Ranma! Please forgive Shampoo! Shampoo no mean to hurt you!"
"That's-gak!-Okay. Nggh!But could you please get off of me?"he asked, his voice, only a whisper. Shampoo didn't seem to hear him.
He saw Akane walk up to him. He couldn't move. He was pinned to the ground by Shampoo. He saw her very angry. He was about to get pounded. Then, a statement, that sounded surprisingly like Ryoga blurted out,"Please forgive me Akane!"and he shut his eyes, waiting for her fist.
Akane's eyes had widened at that last statement. "R-Ryoga?"she asked herself, more than anyone, before withdrawing her fist. Then she yelled,"Shampoo! Would you get off him?!"
Shampoo looked up,"Why should Shampoo?!"she asked her.
Akane was about to get rough with her, when Cologne's voice carried across the yard,"Shampoo, get off of him?!"
"Yes, great grandmother,"she said, reluctantly getting off Ryonma, who was frozen stiff on the ground..................................
A Near-By Street........................................
"This won't take long Ucchan. I just felt a strange energy signature from the Tendo Dojo, and I want to see if everything's okay,"Krillen said, while running along the street, slow enough, so Ukyo could keep up.
"N-no problem Krillen-kun. Besides, f something's going on, I don't wanna miss it"Ukyo replied!"a little out of breath. 'Krillen's faster than he looks!'Ukyo thought, watching the man, in front of her, as he ran, speedily along the streets.
They soon reached the back wall of the Tendo Dojo, and jumped over it......................
Tendo Dojo..............................................
Goku was explaining Fusion, more, in-depth to Cologne, when he sensed Krillen and Ukyo jump over the wall. They both turned to see that two, in front of them. "Oh hey Krillen! Hey Ukuo! What brings you two here?"Goku asked, waving to his friends.
"Hey Goku. What's going on? I just felt a really strange energy signature, and I wanted to see what it was,"Krillen told him,"And Ucchan said she'd come with me."
"Well, it was-"he was cut off by Ukyo's shout.
"RAN-CHAN!!"she yelled, running over to what looked like Ranma. She knelt down, and looked at him. "What's he wearing? Strange. Ran-chan! Wake up!"she yelled. Then she looked at his mouth, which was hanging open. She saw two, little familiar fangs. "Since when does RAN-CHAN HAVE FANGS?!"she said, in an escalating voice. She looked at his hair. "His hair seems different, but there's his pig-tail,"she said to herself. She looked at his eyes,"Those are Ran-chan's eyes, but his face looks like...RYOGA?! No like a mix of the two........ WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO RAN-CHAN?!"she yelled, trying to find out what had happened to her fiancee.
Krillen walked over to her. "Um, Ucchan. This may come as a shock to you.....but that's both of them,"Krillen said.
"What?!"she asked, trying to figure out what Krillen meant.
"Remember how they were learning the Fusion Technique..........well, Ranma and Ryoga did it right!"he said, slightly chuckling, putting his hand on the back of his head.
She was shocked. Her mouth hung open for a moment, when Krillen said,"Don't worry! It only lasts for thirty minutes." Ukyo let out a sigh of relief, then Krillen muttered,"Unless they used the earrings. Then they're stuck like this forever." He was joking of course, but Ukyo didn't know that.
"WHAT?!"Ukyo yelled. "WHAT-DO-YOU-MEAN?!"
Krillen stepped back,"Hey! Calm down! It was only a joke! They didn't use the earrings! Why would they do that? Hehehe"he laughed.
Ukyo, apparently, didn't think it was as funny. She tried to hit him with her spatula. He narrowly dodged. "GAH! UCCHAN! I WAS ONLY JOKING!"he said, very surprised. She sat back down on the ground, and put her hand, on her forehead. He sat down beside her. "Yo, Ucchan, I was only kidding. I didn't mean to make you upset!"he said trying to cheer her up.
She smiled at him. "I know, sorry Krillen-kun,"Ukyo said, feeling better now.
"Aww, it's saright! My fault anyway,"Krillen said, returning the smile.
They were about to talk some more, when they heard a muttering noise from behind them. They both turned around, to see Ryonma, put his hand on his head, and try to sit up. "Darn it! Shampoo almost crushed me!"he said, his dual voice freaking Ukyo out a little.
"What the?!"she yelled, surprised by his voice.
Ryonma looked over to see Ukyo and Krillen. "Ukyo? Krillen? What are you guys doing over here?"he asked.
"Krillen said he felt some strange energy surge, and he wanted to come see. I guess it was you, huh Ranma-honey?"she said, with a smile.
"Ryonma looked over to her,"Actually, I'm Ryonma,"he said. "Or at least, when I'm Fused,"he told her.
"Oh,"she said, still wanting to call him Ran-Chan.
Suddenly, Ryonma glowed white, then there was a flash, and when it disappated, Ranma and Ryoga were sitting on the ground.
"Whoa, that was interesting,"Ranma said, looking himself over.
"Got that right,"Ryoga said, also looking himself over.
"Ran-Chan!"Ukyo said, happily, before hugging him.
"Whoa! What'd I do?"he asked.
Goku walked over,"Well, I guess your time ran out, huh guys?"
Ryoga,"Yeah, I guess so,"he said, getting up.
After Ukyo stopped hugging him, Ranma did the same,"Yeah."
"Sooo, what'd you guys think of that?"Goku asked, ready to hear their opinions about Fusion.
"Well, to tell you the truth.......THAT WAS AWESOME! Even if I did have to Fuse with Ryoga, it was worth it! I felt so powerful!"Ranma said, complimenting their Fusion.
"Ranma has a point. It was worth Fusing with him, to feel that. Thank you for teaching us Goku!"Ryoga said, happy that it had gone so well.
"I knew you two'd like it!"Goku said, smiling at them. "But don't think your Fusion Training should stop here! You've made one, succesful transformation. You've got to make a habit of getting it right, so you never mess up." They nodded. Goku turned to Akane,"So Akane, ready to start?"he asked her. She nodded. "All right then! I'll go get the water!"Goku said, smiling, running in the house for cold water.
"Oh boy,"Ranma said. "Here we go again!"
