------Introduction------
After the little holiday party event at the Tendo Dojo, Shiva invited himself to stay at the apartment that Crystal and I had been sharing since the experiment performed by Washu. The last few days had been relatively quiet in Nerima, but we all know how long that usually lasts. What is summer without a trip to the beach?
------A Day at the Beach Part 1------
[Larry POV]
It was very early in the morning, around 5:00. Strange noises could be heard by anyone that bothered listening to what was going on in the kitchen.
*~*~*~*~*
An hour later, Crystal Mizuka walked down the hallway to get a glass of water. Since it was summer she could actually sleep in past 8:00 without getting into trouble with school and other such activities. As she walked across the living room of the apartment and towards the kitchen, there was Shiva curled up in a ball on the floor in front of the door.
Crystal shrugged off that image. It was true that Shiva had originally gone to sleep on the couch, but Shiva would be Shiva. Crystal continued into the kitchen and over to the cabinet to acquire a glass. She drank a glass of water and decided that she was feeling a little hungry and so she decided to grab a snack.
She openned up the fridge, looked away and looked back to make sure she was seeing things correctly. It was totally empty. She looked around the cupboards and saw nothing expect for a few containers of various spices, but all the food was gone.
"SHIVA!" shouted an enraged Crystal as she lifted up the fridge and threw it in the general direction of Shiva.
Shiva woke up when his name was shouted and evaded the flying fridge. It proceded through the door and imbedded iteself in the wall across the hallway. Shiva yawned and glanced at Crystal who was still glaring at him.
"What? I got hungry," said Shiva in his defense. He didn't know why he needed to explain that to Crystal of all people, but it seemed like the thing to do.
Crystal growled, "You ate everything!"
"So?" asked Shiva. "Were you planning on eating it?"
Crystal threw down her arms in exasperation and stormmed off down the hallway back to her room. She slammed the door behind her.
Shiva sighed sadly, "Why'd she have to waste a perfectly good fridge?"
He walked off into the hallway to see if he could get it to work from its new position jammed in the wall.
*~*~*~*~*
[My POV]
I stretched out my arms, still laying on my futon. I quickly shoved the quilt off of me and crawled off onto the floor before standing up. I stretched again and put the quilt back into position. I walked over to the dresser and grabbed some clean clothes.
It was 7:30 in the morning and I was going to take a shower before Crystal and Shiva decided to turn the apartment into a battlefield like the last few days. I walked down the hallway and into the bathroom, setting the clean set of clothes on the counter beside the sink. I looked around to make certain that Shiva wasn't trying to spy on me again and removed my PJs before getting into the shower.
*~*~*~*~*
[Larry POV]
Shiva had managed to get the fridge in the hallway working again. True there was nothing in it, but a working fridge was a good fridge. The odd thing was that Shiva was sitting on the couch beside reasonably small picnic basket.
Crystal was sitting cross-legged on the floor, on the opposite side of the table. She was facing Shiva.
"So you think we should take a trip to the beach just so you can see lots of cute girls in swimsuits? Is that it?" asked Crystal.
Shiva nodded with a big grin plastered on his face. Crystal felt like smacking him over the head with a phonebook, but was well aware that he would just dodge it like he had the fridge. She was also certain that even he wasn't that sure about how he had gotten the machine working again.
Shiva's grin spread even more, "You know Rachel doesn't like going to the beach, right?"
"I had no idea," answered Crystal. She started to see a side of Shiva's reasoning that she could agree with. The thought ~Payback for that damn party~ drifted to through her mind. Crystal couldn't help smiling about that part of the idea. Crystal felt her will bending towards Shiva's, but for some reason she didn't feel angry about it. "We'll have to take a trip to the market to pack food for the trip though."
Shiva shrugged, "I could pick up some more stuff myself."
"Looks like we'll be doing breakfast at Ucchan's or something," noted Crystal, "since you ate all the food."
Shiva looked guilty, but that faded as one of those puppy-dog looks appeared on his face. The look alone made Crystal feel sick to her stomach. Shiva said, as he had said earlier, "I was hungry."
Crystal sighed, "You're always hungry."
*~*~*~*~*
[My POV]
I finished with my shower and put on the clean clothes I had grabbed. I was wearing black Chinese-style pants and a black long-sleeved Chinese- style shirt with white button-things on the front. The area where the sleeves were rolled up was also white. I walked into the living room and noticed that the door was missing.
"What happened to the door?" I asked glancing between Crystal and Shiva who for once weren't at war with each other.
Shiva pointed at Crystal, "That would be her doing."
I shrugged and took a seat on the other side of the couch that Shiva and his picnic basket weren't sitting on. I couldn't figure out why the two of them weren't fighting, but I got the feeling that it somehow involved me.
"We've decided that today is the perfect day to take a trip to the beach," announced Crystal.
Shiva grinned.
I jumped off the couch and shouted, "There ain't no way you two are dragging me off to the beach!"
"Why not?" asked Shiva still grinning. I wanted to kick him right back into orbit.
I thought about that and said the first logical thing that came to mind, "I don't have a swimsuit."
"Not a problem," said Crystal. She was grinning too. I started feeling a bit scared at that point. She snapped her fingers and suddenly I was no longer wearing my Chinese-style clothing, but a navy blue, one-piece swimsuit.
"Drat," I muttered under my breath. Swimsuits did not cover enough flesh for my liking and with people like Shiva and Happosai around that wasn't a good thing. I didn't much like the beach either, mostly because of the sand.
Crystal snapper her fingers again and I was back in my clothes. I sighed in relief, but that was short lived when Crystal said her next words.
"We'll deal with that after we get to the beach though. First we need to get breakfast and go to the market so we'll have snacks at the beach. Shiva sort of ate all the food this morning," announced Crystal.
Shiva sighed, "I told you, I was hungry."
"You're always hungry!" shouted Crystal and I at the same time.
A second later I found that Shiva and Crystal had both grabbed one of my arms and were dragging me out into the hallway. Neither of them seemed to care that the door was currently gone and just about anyone could get into the apartment while we were gone. I sighed and stated under my breath, "This is going to be a long day..."
*~*~*~*~*
A trip to Ucchan's [at which time we were served by Konatsu because Ukyo had gone somewhere for the day], a trip to the market and a long walk later, we finally arrived at the beach. I had since agreed to come along peacefully and was walking on my own. Crystal was carrying a large cooler full of snacks and drinks while Shiva was just carrying his small picnic basket.
A look around the stretch of beach we were on proved that today was indeed a perfect day to be at the beach. Everyone from the Tendo and Saotome family was set up on one patch of beach. Actually, it turned out that with them were also Shampoo, Mousse and Ukyo as well as the Kuno siblings. Gosunkugi was there taking photos of all of the girls in swimsuits [which included girl-type Ranma].
I groaned inwardly, but said defiantly, "You may have gotten me to the beach, but you sure as hell ain't getting me into a swimsuit again!"
I sweatdropped as a second later Crystal and Shiva had set up our base camp, very close to the others. Crystal had already snapped her fingers and I was in that damned swimsuit again. Crystal was wearing one of similar make, but it was a dark shade of green rather than blue. Shiva had changed into a pair of black swim trunks and was already headed for the water.
I slumped down onto a towel and looked up into the sky. I was not going to go in the water if I could help it.
[Larry POV]
Eventually most of the teenage members of the group were by the water, with the exception of Rachel who didn't really want to be at the beach and Mousse who didn't want to turn into a duck. Shampoo was more interested in being close to Ranma than worried about transforming into a cat. Crystal was wielding a large sledge hammer and was playing "whack-a-mole" with Shiva whenever he surfaced near her in the water. Ranma was wearing her trademark swimsuit that had "Boy" printed across the front. Akane was sticking to the shallow water for her own reasons. Nabiki had started a nice betting pool on who would suffer the most during the course of the trip and so far most of the money was on Ranma [who was currently having a good time aside from the attention that Tatewaki Kuno was giving her] and Rachel [who was already suffering].
Most of the group had gathered a short way from the water. The next wave was large and it crashed close to shore, thus rushing up to everyone who was there. Shampoo instantly became a cat and Ranma took off into the water shouting, "Get it away from me!"
*~*~*~*~*
A short time later order was restored and it was declared time for lunch. Crystal and Shiva regrouped with Rachel who was still on her towel. She had applied a great deal of sunscreen to her skin and was still that color.
"No wonder you don't get very tan," noted Crystal.
"Shut up," muttered Rachel, "I don't like getting burned."
Shiva grinned, "I'm starving, let's eat."
Crystal asked, "Well we got lots of stuff in the cooler, but all you've got is that small picnic basket. Are you sure you packed enough food?"
Shiva shrugged, "Maybe I should take a look and find out."
With that Shiva walked a few feet away and openned up the picnic basket. He suddenly tossed a large table over his shoulder, which landed neatly in the sand beside our base camp area. Then came a set of matching chairs, which also landed neatly around the table. Then a set of plates landed flawlessly on the table along with matching silverware.
Everyone around the area stopped what they were doing to watch as Shiva brought even more out of the small picnic basket. Suddenly large trays off various types of food appeared in the middle of the table. The finishing touch was a candle on each end of the table. Shiva moved away from the basket and lit the candles with his fire elemental powers.
Ranma walked over to our little area and asked Shiva, "Is there anything else in there?"
Shiva shrugged, "Let's find out."
He jumped into the basket and various odd noises rang out, followed by Shiva jumping out of the basket in a fierce battle with Mr. Turtle. During this time a certain panda was sitting down at the table that Shiva had whipped out and started on the food. Shiva threw Mr. Turtle at the panda and started on his lunch, but was promptly attacked by Mr. Turtle again.
This went on repeatedly throughout the time that everyone spent eating lunch. It really was quite a show.
When Shiva was done eating lunch he stuffed everything he had removed back into the picnic basket. No one bother asking how it was done, they just stared in awe.
[My POV]
After lunch I started considering going into the water. Shiva was no longer in the water which meant it was more or less safe. Shiva was currently on the beach glomping any of the girls he could manage to get close to and there was much screaming going on throughout the Nerima group.
I started towards the water when Crystal provoked me into doing so even further. She changed my swimsuit into a bikini and I sure as hell did not want to be seen close up wearing it. I ran and took off into the water until I was in up to my waist. I glared at Crystal and she just smirked back at me.
The rest of the group that had been in the water earlier decided to come back. This included Shiva.
I shuddered, "Can this day get any worse?"
Something grabbed my ankles. I screamed and ran towards shore, tripping over my own feet and landing in a heap on the sand.
Shiva stood up in the water where I had just run off from. He was laughing.
*~*~*~*~*
[Larry POV]
Rachel finally got Crystal to change her back into the one-piece swimsuit and got back into the water. She even started to enjoy herself along with the others. It was actually kind of fun being at the beach.
The group started making a sand castle a short distance from the water, but where the sand was still thoroughly wet. That was when a certain little black piglet crawled out of the water, looking rather water-logged and happened to crawl right to Akane.
"P-chan, what are you doing at the beach?" asked Akane, not actually expecting an answer from her little pet.
Crystal, Ranma, Shiva and Rachel were still half working on the sand castle and half watching Akane and P-chan.
Ranma said, "One of these days I have got to spill Ryoga's secret to her."
Shiva walked over to Akane and swiped P-chan away.
"Hey, what are you doing?!" shouted Akane angrilly.
Shiva removed a container of hot water from somewhere and poured it over P- chan, after setting him on the ground. A second later, a very naked Ryoga was sitting where the little black piglet had been. Shiva said, "Hot water equals Ryoga."
Shiva poured the cold water from another container onto Ryoga who had remained silent this whole time. A second later he was P-chan again. Shiva said, "Cold water equals P-chan. Any questions?"
Akane picked up P-chan, "Yeah, where did Ryoga go?"
*Synchronized Facefault!*
Ranma, Shiva, Crystal and Rachel all fell over from their previous positions. P-chan was relieved.
*~*~*~*~*
A little while later the group was considering packing up and calling it a day. That was when a strange boy walked down the beach with a small gold dragon perched on his shoulder. He approached Shiva and handed him a slip of paper.
Shiva scanned the piece of paper with his eyes, "Lip, huh? You're challenging me?"
Lip nodded, "That's right."
"Fine by me, a sparring match sounds like a fun idea about now," said Shiva. A grin was forming on his face yet again, "You know your handwriting is terrible and so is your spelling for that matter."
Lip shrugged, "That isn't important. Are you ready now, or am I going to have to come back later?"
"What do you think?" answered Shiva still grinning.
[My POV]
My eyes went wide as my brother's original character suddenly showed up at the beach and challenged Shiva to a fight. I decided not to ask, considering there hadn't been much answer as to how Shiva had come to be in this dimension. I just thought to myself ~First Shiva, now Lip. What's next?~
*~*~*~*~*
