Disclaimer: I don't own either Buffy or Ranma, but if I did then I would
know the outcome of Ranma, now wouldn't I?
A/N: I am setting this in the middle of the Ranma series and at the end of the Buffy series because I don't really know how the Ranma series ends, so bear with me. Is there any chance that someone could e-mail me what happens at buffyfraek@hotmail.com cause that would be wonderful. This is my first Ranma fic; please tell me it's good, by reviewing, cause that's what makes me keep going! And to all the people who read my other fics, please hang on I will update them soon! Thanks and enjoy! ~SuperChic
Unusual Bondage: Chapter One
The large rented bus careened silently down the small street, full of music, laughter and teenagers. The driver, a middle-aged Englishman, muttered to himself, as he gazed worriedly at the pouring rain around him. When the music began to smolder his senses for the billionth time that day, he reached up calmly and turned the tunes off. Sounds of disappointment echoed throughout the vehicle.
A petite blond jumped out of her seat to reason with him. "Giles! Why'd ya turn off the music? Again?"
"Because Buffy, I need to talk to you about how we are going to keep cover here. We can't just walk up to these girls and tell them they have to kill things for their destiny. And I bloody tired of hearing Evanescence."
"But that's what happened to me," Buffy pouted, and then sighed with resolution. "Then again, it was uber hard to deal with. We should find out more about them. So, what's the gig this time?" She sat down in the front seat behind him, wary of the noises around her.
"Well, I've heard that in this town-"
"What town are we in anyway?" Buffy interrupted.
"It's called Nerima. And in case you didn't notice we are in Japan."
"You don't have to call me stupid. I'm slow, not stupid." She slouched in her seat, hurt in her own way.
"Anyway, in Nerima, there seem to be a lot of dojo's or training schools. So I thought that we might be a dojo. Only for girls, but still a training school. Also, to keep appearances up, all the slayers should attend the local high school."
Robin Wood, who was sitting nearby, cut in. "Maybe I could apply there as a teacher. That way I could keep an eye on them and look for the slayers."
Buffy nodded, "That'll work, but don't we already know who the slayers here are?" She turned to Giles, a look of question etched on her features.
"We should be knowing soon. Actually, I have to call an old friend of mine to find out. Robin, would you be so kind as to take the wheel? Thank- you." Giles pulled the bus over and stepped down, while Robin took the seat. As the bus started up, Buffy handed Giles her cell phone.
Muttering about the roaming charges, she turned to the rest of the bus and yelled, "Guys! Pipe down! Giles has to make a phone call!" All the people, consisting of many different girls, and a few men, silenced at her command.
Giles searched his mind for the number for a moment, and then dialed into the keypad, still nervous for his memory. Buffy eyed him as he began his conversation
"Hello, this is Rupert Giles. I was wondering if. oh good evening! We are arriving in town so I was wondering if you had found out the identities of the three slayers in the area. you have? Wonderful! . You know them all? Well, we would like to know more about them.. oh but not from you, but from them. Any ideas? .. Inspector? Sounds good. How about Thursday? I know it's still a few days off, but we have to get settled. Somewhat. We will be at." Giles rattled off an address, as they pulled into an elegant, western style home, large enough for the 40-50 plus people they had with them. He said his good-bye quickly and stood. Robin killed the engine as Buffy addressed the girls. "Alright! Welcome to our new home! We will be here for a few weeks, so bring in everything! We will be returning the bus in the morning so I wouldn't leave anything on it! Let's go!" With that, she led everyone out of the bus.
As they passed her, Buffy smiled at her friends, who slowed to talk.
Faith spoke up first, her long dark locks pulled back. "So B, did you ever think you'd be in Japan? I mean ya gotta admit it's fun the way they banish demons daily. And I think we're gonna stand out no matter what we do."
"Aw but Faith," Xander put in. "don't you know that by judging by the population, we should just blend right in with all the other tourists who overstayed their welcomes by moving here?
Dawn cocked her eyebrow at him. "With almost no comprehension of the Japanese language or lifestyle? We're not even here for the sake of being here like normal tourists!" She sighed. "Have I mentioned that I want to be a normal tourist?"
"Dawnie!" Willow looked shocked. "If we were normal tourists, then we would be living out of hotels! Not this house, with only four people to a room." She nudged dawn, sure for happiness. Her hopes were not dashed, as Dawn shrieked and rushed up the stairs into the house to pick her room.
Smiling, Buffy turned back to the other three. Confusion spread throughout her as she took notice of something on Xander's hand. "Xander, why are you wearing a wedding ring? The same one that was for you wedding?"
"Just to remember."
"Who." Faith asked, although they all knew the answer.
"Anya."
Willow looked at him with worry. "But why?"
"Cause I love her and I want to remember her."
Buffy smiled in understanding. "Alright. Let's go in and plan our attack on these three newbies."
"Yeah B, just who are they?" When Buffy shrugged, Faith called out to Giles. "Hey! Mr. G! Who are the new slayers?"
Giles calmly walked over to them before answering. "Thank you for yelling that out to the whole world. The girls are Akane Tendo, Shampoo, and Ukyo."
"I guess last names for all three of them are too much of a luxury for us." Xander deadpanned.
Smiling, Giles continued. "Akane is the youngest daughter and heir to the Tendo dojo, while the other two both either own or work at restaurants; The Cat café and Ucchan's. We should be able to find them quickly."
"You know it's kind of odd for someone that age to own a restaurant. How do they do it?" Faith cocked her head as she pondered her own question.
Buffy shrugged. "Well, at least we'll find them soon. We can ask them when we see them." She smiled and led the group inside.

A few miles away, three girls sneezed in their own homes, unaware as to the future.
