The Liz: Hi yah everyone! Guess what? People have actually reviewed my story! YAY!!! That makes me happy and they gave me a good idea too. Mwhahahaha.
Disclaimer: I don't own Ranma ½ but I will soon own the world. It's only a matter of time...
Setting: Everything is fairly peaceful at this time of day. The sun is shining down cheerfully on the city and it's residents, putting everyone into a good mood. However, some people are in very good mood that quickly destroys other people's good moods. Like the young man that is flying through the air at this moment. He lands with a crash on the street face first, feet twitching in the air. Several people look over in his direction, then shrug going back to their daily activities.
The young man leaps up from his uncomfortable position in a flash with the grace of a man that never gives up. "Curse you Saotome!" he yells less than discreetly, fist raised in the air. Only a few of the passerbyers pay any attention to him, and if they do, it is only to stare at him in wonderment or to shake their head in pity.
"Once again you have impeded my quest to break the beauteous Akane Tendo from your spell!" The young man's expression suddenly turns thoughtful as he strokes his chin. "What sort of spell is he using to turn her against me? I, Kuno, the Blue Thunder must find out!" He puts his hands on his hips and begins laughing menacingly, causing several pedestrians to swerve around him.
He charges abruptly through the streets when suddenly...
SMACK!
The young man peels himself off the ground and looks up to see a shiny black vending machine. "Who put this vile machine in my path?" he asks no one in particular. The sun glints off of the vending machine, which is looking down mockingly at the young man. "Curse you vending machine!" he yells as he leaps to his feet.
"Obviously, you have been placed here by that scoundrel Saotome to prevent me from reaching the goddess Akane," he says to the machine, his head tilted cockily to the side. "Then I shall beat you without mercy!" Suddenly, from his kendo uniform he reveals a wooden sword. He thrusts the sword in front of the vending machine. "Prepare yourself."
The machine stands there, seeming to the young man to mock his very presence. "Strike!" the man cries out as he bangs the sword against the vending machine. A loud hallow sound rings throughout the street, the sound of splitting wood following. With a clang, one half of the wooden sword fslls to the ground, the young man standing in front of the machine. His arms are still extended holding onto the other half of the sword.
The corner of his mouth twitches in frustration as he pulls his legs together and lowers his sword. "Heh, it must be stronger than I thought," he says to himself. He lowers his head in defeat, still wearing a cocky grin. "So, it seems that a mere machine has managed to withstand the attack of the Blue Thunder," he says as he turns away.
"Till we meet again," he says to the machine, then walks off.
The vending machine stands in the street, undamaged and the victor yet again.
AN: Okay not my best one, I'll say that right now. I know this is supposed to be about an evil vending machine that takes away people's money but Kuno just begged to be different. Kuno is also a little hard to write because he just won't shut up! I mean come on, if I had made him silent, he just wouldn't be Kuno.
Please R&R. Next Chapter: Genma
