A Broken Casket
Chapter 5
A man stood in front of Ranma-chan, an expression of pure pain
and undiluted terror etched on his face. His face was apparently
stitched up in the middle, and blood was leaking out from his
shoulders as well his knees.
"Why..." The man asked, his words blubbering because of the
blood that came gushing out from his mouth whenever he opened it.
Ranma-chan backed up a step away from the horrible parody of
a person. "Why what?"
"Why did you do it?" The man walked closer, dyeing her shirt
with his blood. The man looked familiar to her somehow, but she
couldn't place it.
Cologne appeared besides the man, and she had the same
horrifying expression the man did. Blood was leaking out from every
inch of her head, and her arm was hanging limply alongside her
shrunken body. "Why, son-in-law?" she said slowly. "Why?"
Ranma-chan covered her ears with her hands. "Shut up! Shut
up! I ain't your son-in-law! I'm a girl! A girl!" Just after saying
the word "girl", she felt an excruciating pain in her left hand, and
screamed. Looking to her left, she found out that she HAD no left
hand. Behind her was a bloodied steel bonbori, and the left side of
her shirt was now covered with blood.
Without even looking, she knew who the owner of the bobonri
was. True enough, a figure with purple hair came out from the nearby
shadows. Or more precisely, it's a girl with crimson hair, and the
occasional strand of purple hair, and her shirt was soaked red where
her breasts should be. Like Cologne, her entire head was bleeding as
well. She gasped as she noticed the difference between this Shampoo
and the one she once knew. This one was a grotesque monster from hell
who hadn't bothered to keep up her earthly appearance or cover up the
grave wounds, while the old Shampoo was like an angel with her smooth
skin and long purple hair flowing down her back. "Why did you do it,
Ranma?"
"I-" before she could get another word out, she found her
wrists punctured by two rather sharp darts.
"Why, Ranma?" Mousse asked in a falsetto voice, and also
having a bleeding, mangled head.
Feeling someone behind her, she whirled around. 5 girls
wearing fukus were standing behind her, all bleeding in various
degrees. One of the girls had a giant hole where her stomach should
be, and another one was carrying her head in her arms. "Why?" They
asked in an eerie, terrifying unison.
Ukyo's voice rang out from her right. "Why, Ranchan?" Ukyo
was wearing her uniform, but there wasn't an inch of her uniform that
was clean and without bloodstains.
Each one of them combined to form a circle, closing in on
her. Advancing slowly, they repeated "Why?" over and over again,
getting louder and louder each time until their voices turned to
hideous, inhuman screams. She kept trying to fight them off,
but they did not even flinch when hit, and just kept on advancing,
shrugging off the punches and kicks and ki-blasts like they were
nothing.
Letting out a low, inhuman growl that shook the ground, Ukyo
jumped towards Ranma-chan, who performed a side-kick that went right
through her stomach, but Ukyo did not so much as utter a cry of pain.
Instead, she opened her mouth and took a large bite out of
Ranma-chan's face.
Ukyo spat out a piece of meat from between her teeth, and
Ranma-chan's hand automatically went to her face. She could only feel
a concave lump on her face, and one look at the wetness on her hand
told her that it was bleeding. She started to retreat, only to bump
into a brown-haired girl wearing a short fuku. The girl stared at
Ranma-chan with hatred in her eyes, and attack with a furious punch.
Ranma-chan tried to counter the punch with one of her own, but
the brown-haired senshi's punch went straight through her fist,
splitting her right arm in half.
Taking a a few steps back, clutching her right shoulder with
his left arm, trying to stop the pain from overwhelming her and the
blood to stop fountaining out of her arm. Something blurred out of
the corner of her eyes, and she suddenly found herself frozen in
place, unable to move. In front of her, Cologne appeared and
smirked.
"Shabon Spray Freezing!" yelled Sailor Mercury.
"Fire Soul!" Sailor Mars cried.
The two attacks hit her at precisely the same time. Instead
of canceling each other out, they combined to work on her body
simultaneously. It had the effect of lighting her body on fire, but
her insides frozen by Mercury's attack. Sailor Venus took out her
chain and severed Ranma-chan's left arm at her shoulder. No blood
came forth from the wound, and Venus saw a wall of ice encasing the
blood.
Sailor Moon slowly advanced towards Ranma-chan, who tried to
run but found herself unable to move. Sailor Moon clutched
Ranma-chan's head with a single hand and began to apply pressure on
it. Within a minute, Ranma-chan had become
"ex-Ranma-chan-without-a-head".
Ranma-chan sat up and screamed.
