Dreamscape, Ranma's Mind
External time – 1340 hrs

He was stuck in a magical valley, in his own body, with a ghost. Perhaps it should have been more shocking but somehow, having lived with Genma all his life, he no longer was shocked by much. Still, this was a little more then he could handle judging from his earlier outburst. The feel of the familiar motions of the kata calmed his mind as he thought of his situation.

'I should never have allowed Pops to drag me here. Now I don't even know where I am.'

'And that girl, what's her name anyway. I forgot to ask. Hmmm.... I never did tell her my name either. She seems friendly... But she claims to be a ghost and she seems to know magic. If she's the cause of it all, what could she want from all this?'

'A curse... Curse... How to I fix this? I don't know magic. A girl, she says.' He faltered slightly. 'I forgot to ask her where too... She says she can help but how much can a girl do anyway?'

Ranma didn't like the current feeling of helplessness that he was feeling.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was a weird day for Tasha. Granted nothing much should be considered weird given that she was a self-learned sorceress and a ghost. As she watched the interesting and rare display of Martial Arts skill, she thought to herself. 'What the hell's going on. First was the the strange guy without directional sense. Then the weird pools with strange magic. And then that weird ball of energy with the girl. Now this. At least he seems to be taking this well enough. I probably have to wait for everything to sink in before he goes ballistic.'

'Perfect... Just perfect... How much weirder can the day get?'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ranma completed his kata with a flip. Although it wasn't his best, Tasha found it rather amazing. She stood and clapped as soon as it was clear that he was done. "Wow... That's amazing. Never saw anything quite like it."

"Thanks. It's a Kata comprising of several elements of different schools of Martial arts. By the way, my name is Saotome Ranma. What's yours?"

"Sa-o-to-me Ran-ma." She fumbled over the words strange to her. He nodded in response. "I'm Natasha Amaris. Call me Tasha."

"We kinda forgot about the spirit of the girl that you mentioned."

She thought back and realized that she had indeed forgotten so. "Shoot! I did! She was lying in a floating bubble in the middle of the valley." Saying so, she pointed at the direction of a large circle of stones which, strangely, Ranma hadn't noticed earlier. "The area is surrounded with rock. The rock is growing out of the ground. When the magic stabilizes, it will probably stop."

"I want to check it out." Ranma told her.

She nodded and began to lead the way, floating as she continued explaining. "It is likely that the rock formation is the focal point of all the magic in the area. The rocks are probably protecting the magic and the girl from being easily removed."

Ranma was slightly unnerved by the floating girl. He hadn't expected her to suddenly start floating. Nevertheless, he listened to what she was saying. "What are you trying to say?"

"If we can get to the girl and get her out of this area, the magic will probably dissipate and you will be free of any magic... Or curse, as you put it."

"Then what are we waiting for. Let's hurry."

"Didn't you forget something?" Ranma stopped short. "The magic still isn't stable. To remove her now could cause a magical backlash that would probably destroy us. Think about it this way. The magic will arch outwards searching to something to latch onto and even if it does get what it's looking for, the stray bits would probably have attacked elsewhere, causing your body to explode."

Ranma blanched at the idea then sighed. "Right. Let's go there anyway. I still want to check it out."

Genma growled. A sudden shower had triggered his curse and he was now sitting at the back of the guide's house.

"How am I going to explain this to Soun?" He groused. His usual 'The boy will handle this.' was not applicable to the current situation and the older man was at a loss. As he picked at a bowl of fruits that Plum had given him, the gorilla growled again. It would have been a strange sight indeed if anyone saw a gorilla sitting at a table, growling to itself as it stared into space and picked at a bowl on the table.

He then pounded the table. "The boy must beat it. He must. He is my ticket to the future." He had forgotten about the bowl of fruits which had been thrown up with his pounding but he remembered it soon enough as it landed on his head.

AN: I know it's short but unless someone can complete my International Business and Supply Chain Management projects for me, I'm swamped.

Thanks, Joe Fenton.
That was a strange and interesting tidbit of information. At least, to me. Thanks
