A Valentines Day to remember
Chapter 2
The mix up
[February 12: Kuno Mansion]
Kodachi, Ranma, Kuno, and Akane were having dinner at the Kuno's luxurious dining hall. They were mostly talking than eating though.
"My lovely Akane Tendo." Kuno began. "How I longed to have you by my side. Never again will you be forced into subjugation by that evil Saotome."
Ranma cleared his throat. "I'm right here, you know!"
Kuno then turned towards Ranma. "Consider yourself most fortunate that my twisted sister has such an infatuation for you. Otherwise, you would'st have been defeated by my power."
"Me? Ever being defeated by you? Hah! You can be as funny as you are stupid."
Kuno stood up. "How dare you! I should smite thee where you stand!"
Kodachi quickly stood up and held Ranma's hand. "Please, Ranma darling. Let it go."
Ranma sat down. "Well, I suppose I could let him off the hook."
Kuno also sat down. "You have made a wise decision, Saotome."
Akane then hit Kuno. "Don't you know when to shut up?! Let it end already!"
"My dearest apologies, Akane Tendo. For you, I will still my tongue."
Ranma grinned, and Akane noticed.
"And 'you're' no better than he is!"
Ranma was about to say something, but Kodachi interrupted.
"My Ranma darling didn't do anything wrong! I suggest you shut that wicked mouth of yours, lest I shut it for you!"
Akane quickly stood up. "Is that a challenge?!"
Kuno also stood up, and pointed to Ranma. "This is 'your' entire fault, you foul sorcerer!"
After a while, everyone was fighting, both verbally and physically. Kodachi was evading Akane, and hitting her long fabric thing every time she dodged. Kuno and Ranma were doing their usual fighting and dodging. Eventually, Ranma knocked out Kuno, and Akane pinned Kodachi to the ground, and tied her up with her own long garment, and also gagged her with it. (Authors note: I forgot what long thing she waves around was called). After catching their breath, the two looked at each other, and then frowned.
"Why did you knock out my boyfriend, you jerk?!" Shouted Akane.
"Why did you tie up my fiancée, uncute tomboy?!" Ranma shouted back. "Besides, the idiot had it coming!"
"And so did she! In fact, I want you to stay away from him!"
"Not a problem! You had just better keep your flat chested self away from Kodachi!"
"Flat?!" Then she punched him.
"Ow! What did you do 'that' for?!"
"Was there really a need to ask?!"
The two kept arguing back and forth until the phone rang. They stopped bickering, and walked over to it. They let it ring and ring until the answering machine picked it up. It was Sasuke.
"Um, hello? Master Kuno? Mistress Kodachi? Miss Cologne is still affected by the arrows of Cupid, and she's going to marry me in two days. I was wondering if you can come to the Cat café and rescue me, that is, if you're not too busy."
Then Colognes voice could be heard in the background.
"Sasuke my dear. It's time for my sponge bath."
"Please masters! Hurry!"
Then the phone hung up. Ranma and Akane just stood there, speechless, staring at the phone. Finally, Akane spoke.
"Love...arrows?"
Ranma walked up to a struggling Kodachi, and noticed the quiver of arrows next to her. Out of curiosity, he picked one up, and lightly tapped the arrowhead with his finger.
"These don't feel sharp."
However, the arrow disappeared into a puff of pink smoke, and surrounded Ranma.
"What the hell is going on?!"
Akane rushed over to help him, but got caught in the smoke as well. After a couple of seconds, their eyes met. They stayed in this position for a long time. Kodachi, realizing what just happened, cursed through the gag. Finally, Ranma spoke.
"Akane.." then he held her hand. "I..think I...love you."
"Same here....Ranma."
Kuno finally regained consciousness, only to behold a sight most horrific to him. He quickly rose to his feet.
"Saotome! How dare you bring the lovely Akane Tendo back into your control! For Akane, the pig tailed one, and my sister, I will defeat you!"
However, neither one of them were listening. They just kept staring into each others eyes. Then, they pulled each other into a sweet embrace.
"Akane."
"Ranma."
Kodachi finally broke free of her gag, and tripped the two before they could do anything further.
"Use your arrows, dear brother!" Kodachi quickly exclaimed.
Kuno nodded, and reached for his quiver. Unfortunately, it was empty.
"My arrows! What has become of them?!"
[Nerima streets]
Happosai is in the park, with four beautiful women surrounding him, singing for joy, with the quiver of arrows around his back, of course.
[Back to: Kuno mansion]
"Never mind it, dear brother! Just use mine!"
So he rushed for them. However, just as he was about to grab them, a white blur grabs them just in time, and then flies out of the window, leaving a trail of spikes all over the floor. Kuno tried to follow it, but accidentally stepped on a spike, causing him to fall on more spikes. Kodachi grabbed one with her teeth, and used it to cut her bonds open. When she was free, she carefully walked around them, and helped her brother to his feet.
"What do you suppose stole my arrows?" she asked.
"Probably the work of that vile sorcerer! We must get them back!" Then he looked around at all of the spikes surrounding them. "Blast! Where is Sasuke when you need him?!"
[Cat café: upstairs]
"Sasuke, my dear." Said Cologne. "Time to do laundry."
"Yes, miss Cologne." Answered Sasuke as he started to gather the dirty laundry. "(I hope they come for me soon)!"
[Nerima alley]
In an alley, rested a white duck with glasses. He poured some hot water on himself, and changed back to Mousse. He looked at the quiver of arrows, and grinned.
"Shampoo, you and I will soon be together at last."
He equipped the quiver around him, took out a bow from his sleeve, and readied an arrow. "I must do this quickly, so that I will the first one your lovely eyes fall upon." Then he entered a sign that he read as; "Cat café."
Mousse burst in on the unsuspecting girl, and quickly shot her with the arrow before she could have a chance to react. Once she got hit, Mousse ran up to her and embraced her closely.
"Shampoo my love. Let it be me that you first see."
The girl looked at him, and then hearts formed in her eyes. She returned the embrace.
"Mousse! I love you very much! Much more than Ranma!"
Mousse was a bit confused. "Shampoo? You're voice. It sounds like Ukyo."
"That's because I 'am' Ukyo, silly." Then she led him to a table. "Just sit right here, and I'll fix us up some Okonomiyaki. Be right back, honey." Then she skipped off to the kitchen.
Mousse sat there, horrified by his mistake. Why was Ukyo at the Cat café at this hour? He adjusted his glasses, and looked around with a clearer perspective. Then his shock became enhanced.
"Oh no! I'm at Ukyo's place!"
He quickly got up, and rushed out of the door, only to run into another figure that was passing through. He looked at the figure, with his glasses out of place. It looked feminine enough, so he quickly picked up an arrow, and poked her with it.
"Ouch! That hurt! What you do that for?! It's not nice....." then the affects took place. "Wow! It's a cute boy! Azusa keep him!"
As soon as Mousse heard that name, he shrieked in terror, and threw a smoke bomb. When the smoke cleared, he was gone. After a couple of seconds, Mikado came rushing towards her.
"You left me with the bill...again! Why did you run like that?!" Then he noticed the blissful look on her face. "Azusa? Are you feeling alright?"
Azusa stood up, and looked at him. "Azusa, is in love."
"So what else is new? You fall in love with every cute object you come across."
"Yes, but this time, it's a boy."
This surprised Mikado. "You don't say. This is rather unexpected. What did he look like?"
Then she blushed. "Well, he's tall, wears a Chinese robe, and has cute glasses and long black hair."
Mikado thought for a moment, and then came to a conclusion.
"You mean to say, that you're in love with that geeky Chinese boy that works here?"
Azusa frowned at him. "He's not geeky! He's very cute! And Azusa want him! Azusa want him!"
"Well you can't have him. Unlike a pet, you can't take another human being against their own will. It's only common sense."
Then she broke out into tears, hitting Mikado on the head. He just stood there irritably, tolerating it. Then she found a stick on the ground, and was now hitting him with that. He ignored it until she took a bike from a passer-by, and was hitting him with it.
"Stop that!"
But she continued to wail until he yelled at her. She stopped for a second, but then started hitting him again. This continued until Ukyo came out of the shop.
"What's going on here?! Can't you be noisy somewhere else?!"
She finally stopped, and then ran off.
"Where are you going now?!" shouted Mikado.
"Off to find cute Chinese boy." She answered until she was out of sight.
"Chinese boy?" Ukyo asked out loud, but then came to a conclusion. "Mousse! That girl must've scared him off! Don't worry, Mousse honey! I'll save you from her!"
However, before she could move an inch, Mikado grabbed her, and embraced her.
"I thank you for helping me. Please allow me to reward you with a kiss."
Before Mikado could do so, his face was smashed in with a giant spatula.
"Pervert!" Then she ran off to find Mousse.
Mikado slowly got up. "Women. Can't live with them, can't live without their sweet, sensual lips." Then he leisurely followed her.
[Morning: February 13: Nerima Park]
Happosai was in pervert paradise. He lay there asleep, surrounded by women and empty bottles of sake. While he was sleeping, two shadowy figures looked at him. When they came closer, it was revealed to be Kuno and Kodachi.
"That's what happened to my arrows!" Kuno whispered. "That perverted lecher!" Then he looked at all of the women. "That perverted, yet very fortunate lecher."
"What a disgusting sight!" Kodachi whispered as she looked around. "He sure knows how to party though. I wonder where the local authorities are?" Then she saw two bodies in the dumpster nearby. "Never mind."
Without wasting any further time, Kuno picked up the quiver of arrows, and strapped them back onto his back. "Now, let us retrieve the loves of our lives. By the way, dear sister, where are they?"
"Last I checked, they were watching our big screen television set, asleep in each others arms." She shuddered at the image. "Let us depart before it becomes further than that!" Then they rushed back to their limo. "It's your turn to drive!"
"Once again, I ask, where is Sasuke?! Menial tasks like these are 'his' job!"
[Cat café: Morning]
Sasuke lay sleeping on the floor of the bed. He had a chain around his leg, connecting to the bedpost, preventing him from escaping. He would've already escaped if Cologne hadn't taken away his tools. Suddenly, the door opened, and Shampoo entered, and woke up Sasuke.
"Funny man, wake up. Great grandmother say it time for morning husband training."
Sasuke got up, and tried to jump out of the window, but was pulled back by the chain.
"This why great grandmother keep you chained up." Then she released him, and guided him to the kitchen. "(Where is Mousse? He's supposed to be finding a cure)!"
[Cat café: back alley: Morning]
It took all night, but Mousse had finally found his way back to the cat café.
"This time, I 'know' where I'm at! I'm coming Shamp..." was the last word he could say before he was knocked out by an umbrella.
Ryoga had somehow found his way at just the right time, and quickly put Mousse into submission. He picked up the bow and quiver of arrows, and strapped them onto his back.
"Don't worry, Akane. I'm coming to save you."
Then he left to find her, despite his horrible direction.
[Tendo dining area: Morning]
Nabiki waved goodbye to everyone as she left for school, and waved goodbye again to Genma and Soun as they went to search for Ranma, Akane, and Happosai. However, about half ways toward school, she decided to ditch. She knew that she was missing a perfect opportunity to make money, and wasn't about to let that happen. She took out a camcorder from her backpack, and walked towards the Kuno mansion.
[Cat café: back alley]
After a while, Mousse regained consciousness. He stood up, and reached for another arrow, but realized that his quiver, along with his bow and arrows, were missing.
"Oh no! My arrows! They're gone! Somebody stole them! Noo! And I was so close to getting Shampoo!" Then his eyes became fiery with ambition. "I'll find that thief! And when I do, he'll die!" Then he took out a quiver full of arrows out of his sleeve, along with another bow, and equipped himself with it. "The hunt now begins!"
All of a sudden, he could hear the voices of Ukyo and Azusa from around the corner. He looked behind him, and sure enough, there they were.
"Mousse!" they both said. Then they chased after him as he ran as fast as he could.
A few seconds later, Mikado came cruising along in a rented car.
"Good thing I decided to make a little stop first." Then he held his hand up in the air. "Don't worry, my fair maiden with the spatula. I will give you the reward you deserve. You shall feel the sweetness of my kiss."
Suddenly, Shampoo went outside.
"That strange. Shampoo thought she heard Mousse, and then spatula girl. Maybe Shampoo imagining things."
Mikado quickly got out of the car, and was instantly in front of Shampoo.
"It is no imagination, my dear. What you heard was real."
"How you know?"
"Because I am currently pursuing them. I would be honored to give you a ride."
Shampoo looked back at the café, and then nodded. "Yes. Thank you. The sooner Shampoo cure great grandmother, the sooner Shampoo don't have to see funny looking man."
"Then it is settled." He said as he cupped her chin. "But first, to do what I do best, besides skate, that is." Then he kissed her passionately. In the middle of the kiss, she kicked him in the crotch.
"Pervert! Only Airen allowed to do that!"
Mikado slowly got up. "Airen?"
"Yes. It mean husband. In Shampoo's case, Ranma is Airen."
"You mean that guy who's engaged to Akane, one of the girls I have yet to kiss?"
"Yes. But, Ranma is also engaged to Shampoo."
"(That lucky little bastard! He's hogging all of the women for himself)!"
"So, Shampoo must seek out cure for great grandmother, and then seek Airen."
"Allow me to help you. Anyone other than I who is greedy with the ladies must be severely dealt with. Come on. I'll drive."
So the two of them got in the car, and drove in pursuit of Mousse, Ukyo, and Azusa.
