Ranma was standing in the dark. A small light was coming from
somewhere faraway. He ran he ran as fast as he could and met up with the
light. "Selene." He saw the phoenix that Selene transformed into earlier.
The phoenix nodded its head, and somehow Ranma knew she was smiling. "I
will always help you when you ask or are in danger Ranma. I will also help
those you know and love." Selene told Ranma without moving her beak.
"Remember that. Just call me name aloud, and I shall come." The phoenix
disappeared and left him in the dark.
Then he found himself in the park, with his father, Soun, Akane, Nabiki, and Kasumi. They were all laughing, Ranma was too. He heard someone running, and no one else seemed to have heard. He heard a cock of a gun, and saw a man running decked out all in black. He even had a black ski mask and some black visors on. He was screaming and Ranma couldn't hear what he was saying. He stopped in the middle of the park, and began to fire a handgun. He was shooting it everywhere, first in the air, and then at people. Ranma jumped in the air and dodged a bullet, but Akane...Akane wasn't looking. A bullet came whizzing through the air, and Ranma screamed a name. "SELENE!"
Ranma saw that there was a shadow, in the shape of a human. The shadow seemed to have defined itself and soon turned into Selene. But, the minute Selene's body materialized, the bullet shot straight through her stomach. She slowly brought up her right hand to the wound and her fingertips were smeared in her on blood. Selene lifted her gaze from her bullet wound to the man with the gun. Ranma could see Selene sway back and forth as she walked over to the man. The man in black seemed to have froze in his spot. His gun was shaking and his grip loosened around it. Selene raised her right hand, and it burst into flames.
Ranma was on the ground when Selene raised her hand, and he tried to run after Selene. But, he felt hands on his shoulder pulling him away. He saw that Genma, Soun, and Akane were holding him back. "LET GO! I HAVE TO HELP HER! LET GO!" Ranma tried to wriggle his way free, but their grips just seemed to have tightened. "LET GO!" Selene's head turned to where the yells where coming from, and the man raised his gun again. "SELENE, WATCH OUT!" Ranma screamed at the top of his lungs. Selene's hand was down, but still burning and the gun fired. Three more bullets went into her stomach, and a fourth went into her heart.
Selene barely heard Ranma's anguished cries. With her last ounce of strength she drove her burning right hand into the man's heart. When Selene pulled her hand out, she collapsed to the ground, and said, "Ranma, wake up".
Ranma awoke with a jolt. He was breathing heavily, and he was sweating profusely. 'What...' Ranma's heart slowed back down to something normal and dozes off into a dreamless sleep.
Selene at the time was sharing the same dream as Ranma. Except, she could feel the bullets enter her body, and something told her that it was a premonition and that Ranma had shared it too. She looked down the see whether the wounds had crossed over from the dream world and was happy to see that they hadn't. Slowly she fell back to sleep, and like Ranma it was dreamless.
