Chapter 10
Shampoo and Mousse raced back up the stairs to get on some clothes that they could wear in Nerima. They were ecstatic. Mousse even almost forgot about Conditioner! But reality struck when he reached his destination without being glomped to death. With a small sigh, he prepared to get his cure.
~~~~~Kurai Bakari Otoko Tsuyogari's lair~~~~~
Kon Di drummed her fingers on the table. She had finished the rest of the takoyaki when Ku-kun's back was turned. She wasn't about to give him the satisfation. Kurai was up on top of that huge vat thing in the middle of his lair. It looked as though he was stirring something. He had been cackling insanely all afternoon.
Stifling a yawn, Conditioner spoke to his back. [Really, what are you doing Kurai baka?] He stopped laughing for a minute to reply. [I'M MAKING YOUR LIFE HELL! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!] Kon Di rolled her eyes. He had been saying that same thing all afternoon, and she was really getting sick of it. [All right, Ku-kun, whatever. Just hurry up okay? This is boring!] More insane cackling.
Kon Di climbed up to the top of the vat and peered inside. [What is that junk?] Ku-kun looked up for a minute before realizing that she was about to fall. [EEEEEK! Kon Di, watch out!] He ran over to her side of the concoction and grabbed her just in time. He fell onto the floor and she landed in his lap. Ku-kun got swirly eyes, and Conditioner just had to stomp on his crotch before she left.
~~~~~Back in Nerima~~~~~
Mousse, hurry up! Shampoo want tell Airen good news! Mousse finally made it down the stairs. I told you, I lost my glasses! Okay, lets go. Shampoo grabbed his arm and dragged him along. She didn't want to waste any time on him running into a street post, or the door or anything.
As Shampoo rounded a corner, Mousse flying along behind her, she bumped into a tall, masculine form. Without even looking, her instincts made her glomp. Ranma! You find Shampoo! A timid voice spoke up. Well...uh..hehe...I'm...I'm...I'm not...hehe...Ranma... Shampoo looked up and realized she was hugging Ryoga. Ah!!! Gross gross gross! Shampoo touch pig-man! Mousse glared at her. How come I'm not duck-man? Shampoo stuck out her tongue. Cause you not a man. Mousse shrugged. That's good enough for me.
Shampoo remembered why she had been so excited before. Oh, pig-man! We is going to find cure for curse! You want come? Ryoga's eyes widened. I can be cured of the pig?! Yes! You come? Shampoo said exasperatedly. Ryoga's face lit up. Okay, why not? Shampoo grabbed his arm so he wouldn't wander off towards Hokkaido. Alright duck-boy, pig-man, we go to Tendo dojo! And so, Shampoo bounced off, trailing Mousse and Ryoga behind her.
~~~~~Tendo dojo~~~~~
AAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!! I WAS FRAMED!' Akane was running after Ranma with mallet-sama, a scene we've all seen enough to make us sick. She eventually hit him, and the mallet war was over. Geez, Akane, why did I get stuck with such a violent chick with you? Just before Akane exploded again, Shampoo burst in. But she looked pretty weird this time, dragging Mousse and Ryoga along behind her.
The two didn't have any time to wonder why Shampoo had the poor guys in her possessive grasp, but they didn't need to wonder, cause she told them right away. Airen! Violent girl! Shampoo have good news! Mousse get letter that say someone find cure for Jusenkyo curse! We go get cure, yes airen? Ranma brightened immdiately.
Why didn't you say so earlier? Let's go! Akane was angry with Ranma at the moment, so she didn't protest. Well, good luck...jerk. Ranma smiled. See ya Just before the group had time to leave, a huge panda ran in with a few packs of food. Ranma rolled his eyes. Oh, so ya heard us, pops? The panda growled at not having received an invitation, but followed none the less.
And so the oddly assorted group began to head off, or did they? Because once again, their departure was interrupted. This time, the disturber of the peace was Tarou. Where are you going? I SHALL DEFEAT YOU! Mousse looked up. We're getting cures for our curses. Would you like to come? Tarou looked as if tthat was the most ridiculous question in the world. Are you insane? I LOVE my curse! With it, i can beat the crap out of you all! Mwahahahahahahahahaha!!!
The group silently agreed that they might need his help if forced to battle, so Ryoga had a bright idea for once in his life. Well, I hear the owner of the cure also knows away to legally change a person's name! Tarou looked up interested. Really? YES! All right, i'll be your MUCH needed ally, just this once. But never expect it again!
And so, the group FINALLY got started on their way to the address on the front of the letter.
~~~~~Ku-kun's lair~~~~~
[Kurai baka!!!] Kon Di yelled, from her room in his lair. [Are you done yet? I'm tired of comtemplating my last hours on earth.] Apparently, Ku-kun didn't catch the sarcasm. He yelled back to her. [Hey, it's your fault it's taking so long! You know I had to go find some ice!] Conditioner lay back down on her bed. *Are they ever going to rescue me? This is getting old. Oh well, they'll come*
~~~~~mailbox outside Ku-kun's lair~~~~~~
Ranma scratched his head. Well, this is the address. But where's the house? Tarou glared at Ranma. This is probably all your fault, crossdresser. You did it on purpose to waste my time. Ryoga piped in. Hey, you came of your own free will! Mousse looked shocked. You're siding with Ranma? Traitor! Ryoga slapped his forehead. Ah! I don't know what came over me! Ranma yelled at Tarou. I'M NOT A CROSSDRESSER!
Shampoo rubbed her temples and tried to block out the noise. Then she lost it. SHUT UP! STOP YELLING! WE HAVE GET IN YOU STUPID-HEADS!!!! Everyone stared at her as they waited for her breathing to slow down. then Mousse glomped Tarou. I'm so sorry Shampoo! Tarou pounded him on the head, and the fighting began again. genma held up a sign. Here we go again'
Next time: A battle shall ensue with Ku-kun vs. Mousse, Ranma, Shampoo, Tarou, Ryoga, and Genma! Yay!
A/N- Look! I made it to chapter ten! ^_^ Sorry for the long update, my computer broke. -_- anyway, it'll only take one or two more chapters to resolve this whole Ku-kun thing. geez, Ku-kun, you screwed up my whole short story idea!
Ku-kun: I didn't do it on purpose!
Mousse: You probably did.
Conditioner: [No, he's just dumb.]
Ranma: What?
Conditioner: I have goo on my back! ^_^
