A Shard of Hope: Chapter 2
Jaken knew he only had minutes to get what he had to do done. With another wave of his staff, several things fell onto the table. One was a beautiful necklace with a spun silver and gold chain. Attached to it was a shard of some sort of gem that seemed to glow. He put the necklace around Akane's neck, and then picked up a small glowing babble.
"Only by death or by thy one true love's hand shall this be removed."
Both the babble and the necklace turned a glowing green. Jaken tossed the babble into the air and it disappeared.
"There," he said to himself, "there are only two ways to get that off. One is to kill her, and the other, well; the other is for her soul mate to remove it. But its very unlikely that she'll ever find him."
Finally, he pulled a sack out from under his cloak and left it on the table. He ran out of the dinning room and out of the dojo. The time- freeze would only last another 20 minutes, and he had a lot left to do.

Jaken skipped down the street to the Nekohaten and waltzed through its open doors. Everything was frozen, people eating, a cup of water that was spilling, Shampoo was caught in the act of weaving her way through the crowd to a table, laden down with trays of ramen. Jake went strait to her and threw a necklace; identical to the one he put on Akane, around her neck. He said the spell, and tossed the babble into the air once again. Both the babble and the necklace glowed green before the babble disappeared.
Once he had completed his spell on Shampoo, he ran from the Nekohaten as fast as he could. He only had ten minutes left until the time-freeze ended, and one more stop to make.
With an amazing burst of speed, he flew through the door of Ucchan's. Ukyou was frozen in the middle of flipping someone's okonomiyaki. He pulled a third necklace out of his cloak and put it around Ukyou's neck. He preformed the spell and threw the babble as fast as he could. As soon as the babble disappeared, he raced from the restaurant. Even so, he barely made it out of Ucchan's before the time-freeze spell wore off.
As it did, Ranma, Mousse, and Ryouga's eyes glowed red.
Jaken walked down the streets of Nerima feeling good about himself. He had completed his tasks without any problems whatsoever. His lord and master would be very pleased. Very, very pleased.
