At The Nekohanten.
"Hmm...is that so?" said Cologne on her cane.
"Yup,so can I have them ? " said Max who was sitting next to Ranma who is looking at Shampoo nerversely.
"Ok I'll help you,but the ones for 16 years must wait for sometime because I'll need to order the growth formula to speed up the mushrooms." chuckled Cologne ." I must say that this 'Conan' boy is very interesting."
"Thank You elder." said Max as he walked out of the shop.
Shampoo was being quite the whole time after Max told her what happened and Cologne assuring that she still have Ranma to go for and that perked her up.Ranma was walking beside Max to the Food Fair....
"Well that went well." said Max.
"Yeah right..." Grumbled Ranma.
"Hey cheerup man,don't forget we still have all those food ahead of us."
"But do you see the face Shampoo made went Cologne mensioned that I was still a 'catch'? Huh? It was nerv wrecking !!! "
"Yeah,yeah,I get it sheesh....anyway wanna speed up the pace? Food tastes good after a workout." Max started to speed up his pace.
"Beat ya to it." Shouted Ranma as he hopped on the roof tops of Nerima.Max Following behind him.
---------------------
Teitan Heigh School.
The crowd was chatting happily as the student body offers beverage and food to them.Rows and rows of food stalls of various types of food and drinks were sold there.Max and Ranma was eating their 4th servings,while talking of the techniques they discussed last night.
*Flash Back*
"So if I get this chi stuff right I can make attacks up like Hung maybe." said Max.
"I don't know who Hung is but yes you can,that's how my Mokou Takabisha attack was formed.Any new tricks on your mind?" asked Ranma while dodging a punch from Max and returning a sweep kick to the leg but was blocked by Max.
"I dunno....something like this,Hurracina Kick !!!" Ranma watched in awe as Max Jumped and started spinning with his right leg kicking out and his left leg pushed his body.He blocked the first kick...then the other and the other untill he finally jumped high up and shoot a ki blast to Max.
Max jumped away and did a back flip and shouted " Rising Tackle " Thrusted his leg upwards with his hand on the ground while twising at Ranma."What The ...hey that's from KOF !!! " shouted Ranma while dodging the attack.
The two stopped but still holding stances against each other."That was amazing!! How the heck did you do that Max?" said Ranma.Max shrugged, " When you told me the method of breathing correctly I figured why not perform some similar techniques from some of the arcades? So I just copied them,neat huh?"
"Hell ya,hey I bet I can do that Screw Upper by Joe since it's very similar to my Hiryu Shoten Ha.I can even perform the Houdouken ! " Stated Ranma excitingly while he executed a series of attacks to Max,who in return never failed to counter them with combos from some games he remembered.
"Yeah, you can do that.So....wanna go outside and try it out?" asked Max but getting hit by accident.
"Sure,let's go !"
With that the troublesome duo headed outside to try out their theory of self-creating,or should I say copying styles that they can think of from any arcade.
At the Kami Plane
-------------------
"Holy Shi.....ahehe I mean Shish Kebab Kami-sama." said Goku.
^^THAT'S OK GOKU BUT TRY NOT TO SAY IT TOO LOUD....HOLY COW !! HE JUST DID THAT SCREW UPPER THINGGIE !!^^ everybody facefaulted....oh did I mension BIG SWEAT DROPED?(A/N : Is there such a word?)
*End Of Flash Back*(don't you just love these?)
Well after their 5th servings Max decided to go to the drama show at the school hall.Ranma hesitated because of the memories of him and Akane while undergoing the Romeo and Juliet play last time but shrugged since this is not Nerima,no place in Japan that's stranger than Nerima right? Not that the Beika District have numurous murders going on or some place that have big monsters trying to steal peoples soul and girls in Sailor Fukus with magic powers trying to stop them right? No,this is a new place and it's not crazy like Nerima.But according to Murphy's Laws and the will of L-sama a.k.a. Lord Of Nightmares and Chaos nothing is what they seems.
Max ordered a Mocha-latee and Ranma ordered a coke.They find a place in the middle and waited for the lights to go off.Max was looking left and right for some reason and when Ranma asked what was he looking for Max just replied that is was nothing personal just looking for someone.
The movie started just like Max remembered.The Princes,which was played by none other than Ran Mouri was reciting a poem of first love.Some guy was whistling and ranting about him being Ran's father.....figures.Ranma was bored...no he was beyond bored.Then the fight scene started and Ranma woke because of the noise and sound track that was being used.Max was excited because he never thought seeing this real life was better than seeing it in the manga.
Ran was wearing a beautiful dress which looked like a wedding gown...well it was a wedding gown before they sew it to a form fitting dress.It was white and laces surround the skirt.She wore a small but beautiful tiara on her head with sparkles that resembles diamons.
The fight scene was played very shortly because the hero appeared out of no where and started slashing all the bad guys that was trying to kidnap the Princess.A girl beside the guy who claimed to be Ran's father shouted something about Ran to use her Karate skills to kick their butts.Then after all that,the Hero,which was claid in a cape and helmet black in colour stopped to hear the plea by Ran.Ran asked him if he was her first true love in her childhood.The hero in black said nothing but in return hugged her arround the waist.That guy infront started shouting about taking advantage to her daughter but was silenced when they were about to kiss.Ranma was blushing while Max was ...waiting?
Then it happened,a hit pitched scream acchoed through the hall getting everybody's attention.Max stood up and ran towards the source of the scream.Ranma was startled but manage to follow Max through the now panicking crowd.Apparantly a guy with glasses was dead and his friends was shocked to find him lying there.Someone called the police.Suddenly a guy with a cap that covered his eyes walked near the now stiffened body and began to examine the body.
"It's a murder case pal."said Max softly towards the guy with the cap.
"Huh? How do you now? Who are you?" asked the guy.He was about the same age....no younger...*I know who you are Heiji* thought Max.
"Notice the colour of the finger nails are pink in colour and that scent of almond..." with that Max walked away with a bewildered Heiji.
After that,The police came and everything goes accordingly.Shinichi Kudo shows up for the first time ingod knows how long and solved the murder case.It turns out that the poison was in the ice cubes.The habit of the victim was to swallow the ice cubes whenever he drinks something.The murderer was a girl age 28,worked in the hospital.The reason was that the victim who was a doctor,purposely gave the wrong medicine to a patient to prove his medical theory correctly.The poison was discovered in the girls hood.Shinichi claimed that the rain gave him the clue for she never covered her head using the hood and let her head get wet.
Soon 'Conan' told Heiji about the switch between 'Conan' and Haibara.Heiji told everybody not to reveal anything that happened at the school so that the school's name will not be contaminated.Max chckled as Heiji was looking for him.Ranma was in the toilet after drinking too much liquid.Max walked to the false 'Conan' who is Ai Haibara in disguise.
"Yo Conan-kun,what's up long time no see."greeted Max as he approached 'Conan'
"Um...and you are?" said 'Conan' *Hmm...he seems to know Conan,maybe he's Conan's friend.I must compromise*
"Oh ,never saw you there nii-san.How are you?"
*Very clever,she never saw me and don't know my name so she call me nii-san.*thought Max.
"Fine,fine. I've never seen you since the beach incident.How's the scar on your hand?" asked Max.*Might as well have some fun.
"Oh,um...its healed already since it's so long ago." stuttered 'Conan'
"HAHA,is that so?" Max use a dark and cold voice and said " Who are you,I've never seen you and you acted like you know me.You are not Conan."
"Wha...what are you talking about nii-san...?" said 'Conan' is a stable voice but was failing.*Oh my god ! What have I done? I've fallen to the oldest trick in the book.Is he an agent?Gotta think a way to warn Kudo.*
"Anyway you can drop the act on me now Haibara,or should I call you Shiho?" said Max as he leaned closer.
"How...how did you..?" Haibara was visibly shaken by all this.
"Shinichi will faint and nobody will come looking for you...so I have all my own." said Max.
"Ok,I give up.But let Kudo live please,it's me you want." said Haibara.
"Huh? You gave up just like that?" asked Max bewildered.
"Yes,what do you aspect?" spat Haibara.*I'm going to miss all this and won't survive another one...good bye everyone.*
Max was quiet.Ranma came by his side."Yo Max,what's up? Who is this kid? Oh is he that Conan kid?"asked Ranma.
"Yes and no."said Max.
"Huh? What do you mean?" asked Ranma
"She is Ai Haibara,because Shinichi Kudo is in his body again" Points towards to group behind "So she needs to fill up for him as Conan."
"Oh,so what'cha gonna do?" asked Ranma as he shrugged.
"Nothing,for now...come on Ranma.Oh,and Ai,sorry about that.It was a quick joke.I'm gonna stay with the proff and you after a few weeks so please don't take this personally 'kay?" Max flashed a smile, after that Max and Ranma left.
"What the...he's living with ...who? The Proffessor is gonna do some explainning to me and it better be good." said Haibara.*Damn that was scary.Whoever he is,he's good....but not too good.* thought Ai as she blushed.
-------------------
At the Tendo Dojo.
-------------------
"Ok Max,now that I've mastered the screw upper,what shall we do next?" asked Ranma.
"Howabout we do some elemental attacks?" replied Max as he did a kata that Ranma showed him.
"Oh you mean like that Sub-Zero guy at Mortal Kombat or that cool fire attack like Kyo or Iori?" said Ranma as he finished the kata.
"Yeah something like that,so...wanna try it?" said Max as he too finished the kata.
"Alright.Let's do it,but how shall we begin?"
"We'll use your 'Soul Of Ice' as a base.Since it's a cold based attack we'll need to try and suck or absorb the cold air arround us into a ball of Ki.Then like the Mouko Takabisha,we release it,only we need not confidence but use calmness 'cos that is how you do the 'Soul of Ice' righ?" said Max.
"Ok first I'll teach you the Soul Of Ice." said Ranma.
After a few minutes....
"Ok,now you get the basics of the technique....all you have to do is maintain it." said Ranma.
After a few hours brooding in the dojo....
"Whew,I didn't know that it was THAT hard." said Max panting.
"Hey, I didn't get it on the first try ya know." said Ranma." And I think I can get the hang of it right now.Watch...Ice Blast !" shoutted Ranma.
Ranma stood in a half horse stance,he moved his hands in a circular patern then,hands cupped like when he's starting a Ki blast....Max felt the room temperature started to run down a few degrees.When Ranma felt all the cold of his body started to form in his hands,he continued to add in Ki ino it until it gave off a solf,light blue aoura.Then Ranma let go off his hands and away a quick blue ball of ice flew out the dojo folloewed by a cold breeze trailling it behind,leaving some fog.The blast hit a tree out side the dojo with a 'brack' sound.
"WHALAU-EH !! The tree...look at the tree ! You just freezed the freaking tree!" shoutted Max as he ran outside to inspect the result of the ice blast.
Truely enough the tree's lower half was embeded by a layer of cold ice and it was giving off cold vapours arround it.he scence was so sureal and it was a very beautiful sight to see.
"Wow,it worked." said Ranma.
"Ofcourse it worked.Hey that means we use the opposite and make a fire element attack as well.And maybe an electrical attack too." said Max.
"Yeah we could do that,but one at a time Max,you must first master the Soul of Ice." said Ranma.
"Yeah...you're probably right...Ok Let's do it." said a determinded Max.
Dinner Time at The Tendos.
----------------------------
"Give that back you damn Panda !!" shouted Ranma as he struggled for his pickle with Genma.Appearantly they were at it again with the food fight.Suddenly Ranma said in a cold and harsh voice."Give it back NOW.Or you'll regret it."
"Huh,what you're gonna do about it boy?"gruffed the panda man.
"Hmm...this.."Ranma made a circular motion with his hands and cupped it by his side.The heat surrounding him was tuned out immedietely as he formed a small grin."Ice Blast." and he unleashed his new attack at the unsusppecting idiot.What happened next was absolutely shocking to the Tendo family,not to mention a certain frozen panda.All but Kasumi and Max was looking dumbly at the scene while Ranma grabbed his father's remaining food on the plate.
Genma was frozen like a statue until he can't even feel his body but he was still countious and was thinking about what he could do if he had his hands on such technique,that was until he notice Ranma eating all his food that he tried to break free of his cold prison.But to no avail so he gave up and start thinking of ways to punish Ranma when he gets free.
"You know Mr.Saotome, you looked like that squierrel in 'Ice Age'." chuckled Max as he helped Kasumi with the dishes.
"Oh no Max-san,you're a guest.You mustn't trouble yourself."Said Kasumi cheerfully.
"It's ok, since I'm going to stay here I need to help out."said Max.
"Well it's good to see that at least 'someone' bothered to help out arround here,right Ranma?" smirked Nabiki.
"Yeah whatever,yo Max meet me at the dojo 'kay?" said Ranma while jumping out the door towards the Dojo.
"Sure." replied Max in the kitchen.
At the Kami-plane.
--------------------
"Well things are looking fine so far.Anything up your sleaves Goku-san?" asked Urd.
"Hmm...since Kami-sama put me in charge of the stuff there and he wants me to make it 'as-interesting-as-possible' for him so I gave the job to Loki." said Goku.
"Oh,ok...." just then it hit her "You WHAT !!! LOKI? As in Loki the God of Mischief ?" screamed Urd.
"You are as bad as Skuld here, Goku." shouted Venus.
"Hey I'm still here you know." grumbbles Skuld.
"Hehe,anyway just you wait and see." said Goku.
Back at The Animeverse....
Beika District.
-------------------------
"This is GREAT!" exclaimed Shinichi Kudo while wearing his Teitan high school uniform.Looking at himself by the mirror in his bathroom.It seems that he didn't turn back to a kid afterall.He could speak to Ran at will.He was happy....scratch that,he was very happy.Then he noticed a shadow behind him.
"Don't be too cocky Kudo.It's just a test tablet that I let you have.What where you thinking dashing out blowing your cover like infront of everybody? If it wasn't for your friend Heiji,he helped keep the whole thing under control by telling the crowd to keep the incident quite.But for how long.I don't know." the voice was his previuose vioce.'Conan' appeared and walked towards him.
"Heh,sorry ,I just got carried out by the sensation of a case." said Shinichi dumbly while trying to tie his neck tie.
"It's by the help of the Proffessors Voice changging device and this disguise that fooled everyone....well almost everyone.." said Haibara, the last sentence was bearly enough to be heard but being the detective he is,Shinichi heard it.
"What do you mean?" asked Shinichi after finishing the knot on his tie.
"Someone from the crowd saw through my disguise and he knew who we are...." trailled Haibara.
"What ?! We should do something,have you told Heiji or the prof.Agasa? Who is he?Is he from the BO(Black Organization)?" Shinichi held Haibara at the shoulders,shaking her.
"Wa...wait a minute.He didn't say much.He just said that he will be staying with us after a fe weeks and that's all I know.I...I think he means no harm." stuttered Haibara.
"Well if you say so,maybe he's related to the Proff' , but we can't be too sure." replied Shinichi,packing his bag.
"I've asked Agasa but he didn't say anything.Just keep a look out ok." after that she started leaving the room.
"Why are you helping me Haibara?" asked Shinichi.
Haibara blushed and replied "Don't be an idiot Kudo,I'm just doing this to observe my creation,namely ,you.If I were to took the pill I need to see the status of the effects." she walked to the exit but was stoped by Kudo again.
"Haibara, wait."
"What?" said Haibara,another blush was forming but the mouth cloth device was hidding it well.*What is it with me and this boy?*
Shinichi squatted beside Haibara."Can you please avoid using the voice of Conan in a girlish amnenr? It's a bit gross." asked Shinichi while he sweat dropped.
"Ara,I rather liked doing that." said Haibara as she walked away...finally.
Shinichi walked down the street with Ran by his side talking about yesterday at the fair.Today is the clean up for the food fair,the students need to help cleanup all the mess did by the audiences.Ran was talking none stop to Shinichi,Conan walked slowly beside them.Then Ayumi,Genta and Mitsuhiko.
Shinichi greeted the children who was running towards them."Hey everybody."
"Huh? who are you?" asked Genta.
"He's the one who lives beside proffessor's place." said 'Conan' still wearing the mask cloth.
"Oh, you mean that haunted house?" said Ayumi.
The children chatted together while they walk to school.Shinici just stood there.*I was once part of them...It's just like a dream.*
"Hey Shinichi we're getting late."
As lives goes on in The Beika District....someone is plotting against a certain someone....ok that doesn't make sense so I'll elaborate a little,better yet let yours truely bring you to the scene.
In an unknown building.
------------------------
"So Mr.Gin,what can I help you with?" said a small framed man sitting on a chair.It seems like he is the boss of the place,but things can change....
The man named 'Gin' replied, "I need assistance to clear of some evidence on my tail.Get someone on the job." it was a statement made by a man in a black coat with long brown hair,he was smoking nearby with his associate.
"I have just the team for you.Jack !" immediately a man wearing a jacket walked in."Send in Momochi and Haku.Tell them it's their new mission." said the small man.
"Yes sir." as Jack quickly exited.
A few minutes later,a puff of smoke appeared out of no where.Two figures emerge from the smoke.One was a man with baggy jeans,his face was covered with what seemed like bandages except his eyes and he have a Big sword at his back,he wore a black leather vest.The other was short with long sleeved sweater and a bun on his head.He wore a mask with wooden sandels.
"Well Mr Jones,are these your man?" asked the bulky one beside Gin.
"Yes they are Mr Vodka,meet Momochi Zabusa and his associate Haku.They were natives from an Island not far off the coast of Japan.The Island was hidden from normal people because it was filled with Ninjas and that is what Mr Zabusa is....a Ninja." said Jones.
"I ask for killers not some half dead mummy." said Gin.
"Mr Zabusa is one of the best.He is called the 'Demon' Zabusa and his name means 'Never Cut Twice' he has never failed me and whta makes you think your enemy can deal against one of the Seven Sword Ninjas Of The Hidden Mist?" said Jones proudly.
"You seemed confident in your men Jones.But we'll see." after that Gin and Vodka left with an envolope on the table.
"Zabusa,you are to arrive here and take orders from him." said Jones.
"Yes sir." after that he disappeared the same way.
In the Tendo Dojo...TWo days later.
-------------------
"Alright,I've managed the Ice Blast just as you Ranma." exclaimed Max.
"Yeah,and I can do that fire attack.I think I'll call it 'Raging Flame' what do you think?" said Ranma.He then started to gather some heat in his hand a twist it with a little forward thrust.A blast of flames appeared between his hands flying towards Max.The other just stood still but the flames didn't harm him.If you look closer you cloud see that is was not Max but a replica of him.It is a statue of Max and it was giving of vapours because of the encounter with the flames.
"Well that was close."said Max.
"What was that? Wait...it's the Ice Clone by Sub-Zero wasn't it? Cool !" said Ranma.
Suddenly a blur of black and white appeared out of nowhere and bumrushed Ranma.It soon turned to a ball of fire...wait...a ball of screaming fire?
"Owowowowowow hot hot !!! What have you done boy? " screamed Genma and Soun while being burned.
"Hah,that was my fire clone,just like Max.What do you want pop?" said Ranma who was standing beside Max.
"You must marry Akane boy,although putting your time in the arts is good but you need to complete and Unite the schools for the honour of the family." said Genma.
"Yes, and then only you can teach my darling Akane the arts and continue our school." Cried Soun,it seems that his tears is working as a fire extinguisher and it cleared the flames.
"Hmph,what do you know you moron,all you want is to eat of my hard sweat while you sit there with old man Tendo playing Shogi all day long.If you want to unite it so much,why don't YOU marry that uncute Tomboy and UNITE the schools." shouted Ranma.
"What !! How dare you." the two idiots attacked Ranma.
"Screw Upper!" A gust of wind blew over and a miniture tornado appeared from Ranma's fist and it blew the moronic duo away.
"Hmm...maybe you could come with me Ranma." said Max.
"What do you mean?"
"What I mean is when I leave,you leave with me.To Teitan High School."said Max
"But what about the Tendos?" asked Ranma.
"Well what about them? You've seen what they did and done in the past few years." said Max in a harsh voice.
"Well yeah but what about Akane?"
"HOW about her? Do you love her? No...before that ,do you even liked her?" said Max in a louder voice.
"I thought I loved her but she kept bashing me....and after the failed wedding attempt she still bashes me.Ucchan didn't go overboard again so I forgive her and she is happy with Konatsu.Shampoo is well...um...Shampoo." said Ranma.
"Yes,I know but can you take it anymore?I swear it's getting worser aand worser.I can't stand to see you like this.You should move out." said Max.
"But what will I do then? Staying with that proffessor isn't going to help." said Ranma.
"You can work at some restaurant." said Max meekly.
"Yeah right,what can I do? Be a waitress again? Like that's gonna happen...hey you know what.Since you came here I haven't been splashed or turned to a girl." said Ranma.
"Hmm...I don't know,maybe it's because I always warn you before we go any place with 'water' on it?" smirked Max .
"Maybe you're right." said Ranma rubbing his head.
"OK Let's do this one last time." said Max.
"Alright,Burning Knuckle !" cried Ranma.He made a dash towards Max while the fists were covered with pure ki.The punch hit Max dead on.Max was knocked over the flat wooden floor on the dojo.
"What the fuck? When can you do that?" Said Max while he tried to stand up,feeling the numbing sensation on his cheek.
"Since now.Try this,Reisenken." as he shouted,electric sparks could be seen appearing arround Ranma's fists and he dashed forward to smash Max in the chest.
"Crap,this is gonna hurt....only if it connects.Ice Clone." said Max as an icy statue of himself took his previous place.
Ranma's punch smashed through the frozen statue and make short work of it.Although Ranma's fist was protected by electricity
it wasn't meant for frostbites."You did that move from Benimaru,impresive." said Max appearing behind Ranma, hands by the waistline,feet appart."Dodge this,CHOU HODOUKEN REVISED: SHIN RYU HOKOUDAN !" A huge ball of Ki was formed by Max's cupped hands,beads of sweat was forming on his fore head and he let loose with a Ki blast equalvilient to a Prefect ShiShi Ho Kou Dan.
Ranma sweat dropped,"No way I'm gonna get hit by that." then leapt outside towards the backyard.He also shot two Mokou Takabishas at the ball of Ki in midair but the ki ball seemed to engulf the ki blasts and grew bigger.*Holy Shit !! Gotta do something before it destroys the whole place.*"Genbuu Ki Shield." Ranma make a cross with his both arms,blue ki covered his form and he tried to block the Ki blast.The ball of ki clashes with Ranma who was holding his ground but was stii struggling.*Damn too much force,wait I get it,I'll deflect the blast.* "Hiyaa ! TAICHI DEFLECTOR SHIELD !" the ball of Ki was deflected off to the horizon and disappeared,leaving Ranma panting and Max on the floor nearly passed out.
"Shit,I never knew that I had it in me." said Max.
"How do you get that strong in Ki blasts?" said Ranma,still struggling to get up.
"I added my Nine Solar Stance Ki reserves in it."
"Oh,that explains it,next time warn me if you're goin all out." said Ranma in a sarcastic tone.
"Sorry,*smirk* but I thought you could handle a small ball of ki like that."
"EXCUSE ME!!?? SMALL ??!!" shouted Ranma.
"Heh." sweat drop.

"Hmm...is that so?" said Cologne on her cane.
"Yup,so can I have them ? " said Max who was sitting next to Ranma who is looking at Shampoo nerversely.

"Yeah,yeah,I get it sheesh....anyway wanna speed up the pace? Food tastes good after a workout." Max started to speed up his pace.

---------------------
Teitan Heigh School.
The crowd was chatting happily as the student body offers beverage and food to them.Rows and rows of food stalls of various types of food and drinks were sold there.Max and Ranma was eating their 4th servings,while talking of the techniques they discussed last night.
*Flash Back*
"So if I get this chi stuff right I can make attacks up like Hung maybe." said Max.

The two stopped but still holding stances against each other."That was amazing!! How the heck did you do that Max?" said Ranma.Max shrugged, " When you told me the method of breathing correctly I figured why not perform some similar techniques from some of the arcades?

"Yeah, you can do that.So....wanna go outside and try it out?" asked Max but getting hit by accident.
"Sure,let's go !"
With that the troublesome duo headed outside to try out their theory of self-creating,or should I say copying styles that they can think of from any arcade.

^^THAT'S OK GOKU BUT TRY NOT TO SAY IT TOO LOUD....HOLY COW !! HE JUST DID THAT SCREW UPPER THINGGIE !!^^ everybody facefaulted....oh did I mension BIG SWEAT DROPED?(A/N : Is there such a word?)
*End Of Flash Back*(don't you just love these?)
Well after their 5th servings Max decided to go to the drama show at the school hall.Ranma hesitated because of the memories of him and Akane while undergoing the Romeo and Juliet play last time but shrugged since this is not Nerima,no place in Japan that's stranger than Nerima right? Not that the Beika District have numurous murders going on or some place that have big monsters trying to steal peoples soul and girls in Sailor Fukus with magic powers trying to stop them right? No,this is a new place and it's not crazy like Nerima.But according to Murphy's Laws and the will of L-sama a.k.a. Lord Of Nightmares and Chaos nothing is what they seems.
Max ordered a Mocha-latee and Ranma ordered a coke.They find a place in the middle and waited for the lights to go off.Max was looking left and right for some reason and when Ranma asked what was he looking for Max just replied that is was nothing personal just looking for someone.
The movie started just like Max remembered.The Princes,which was played by none other than Ran Mouri was reciting a poem of first love.Some guy was whistling and ranting about him being Ran's father.....figures.Ranma was bored...no he was beyond bored.Then the fight scene started and Ranma woke because of the noise and sound track that was being used.Max was excited because he never thought seeing this real life was better than seeing it in the manga.
Ran was wearing a beautiful dress which looked like a wedding gown...well it was a wedding gown before they sew it to a form fitting dress.It was white and laces surround the skirt.She wore a small but beautiful tiara on her head with sparkles that resembles diamons.
The fight scene was played very shortly because the hero appeared out of no where and started slashing all the bad guys that was trying to kidnap the Princess.A girl beside the guy who claimed to be Ran's father shouted something about Ran to use her Karate skills to kick their butts.Then after all that,the Hero,which was claid in a cape and helmet black in colour stopped to hear the plea by Ran.Ran asked him if he was her first true love in her childhood.The hero in black said nothing but in return hugged her arround the waist.That guy infront started shouting about taking advantage to her daughter but was silenced when they were about to kiss.Ranma was blushing while Max was ...waiting?
Then it happened,a hit pitched scream acchoed through the hall getting everybody's attention.Max stood up and ran towards the source of the scream.Ranma was startled but manage to follow Max through the now panicking crowd.Apparantly a guy with glasses was dead and his friends was shocked to find him lying there.Someone called the police.Suddenly a guy with a cap that covered his eyes walked near the now stiffened body and began to examine the body.
"It's a murder case pal."said Max softly towards the guy with the cap.
"Huh? How do you now? Who are you?" asked the guy.He was about the same age....no younger...*I know who you are Heiji* thought Max.
"Notice the colour of the finger nails are pink in colour and that scent of almond..." with that Max walked away with a bewildered Heiji.
After that,The police came and everything goes accordingly.Shinichi Kudo shows up for the first time ingod knows how long and solved the murder case.It turns out that the poison was in the ice cubes.The habit of the victim was to swallow the ice cubes whenever he drinks something.The murderer was a girl age 28,worked in the hospital.The reason was that the victim who was a doctor,purposely gave the wrong medicine to a patient to prove his medical theory correctly.The poison was discovered in the girls hood.Shinichi claimed that the rain gave him the clue for she never covered her head using the hood and let her head get wet.
Soon 'Conan' told Heiji about the switch between 'Conan' and Haibara.Heiji told everybody not to reveal anything that happened at the school so that the school's name will not be contaminated.Max chckled as Heiji was looking for him.Ranma was in the toilet after drinking too much liquid.Max walked to the false 'Conan' who is Ai Haibara in disguise.
"Yo Conan-kun,what's up long time no see."greeted Max as he approached 'Conan'
"Um...and you are?" said 'Conan' *Hmm...he seems to know Conan,maybe he's Conan's friend.I must compromise*
"Oh ,never saw you there nii-san.How are you?"
*Very clever,she never saw me and don't know my name so she call me nii-san.*thought Max.
"Fine,fine. I've never seen you since the beach incident.How's the scar on your hand?" asked Max.*Might as well have some fun.
"Oh,um...its healed already since it's so long ago." stuttered 'Conan'
"HAHA,is that so?" Max use a dark and cold voice and said " Who are you,I've never seen you and you acted like you know me.You are not Conan."
"Wha...what are you talking about nii-san...?" said 'Conan' is a stable voice but was failing.*Oh my god ! What have I done? I've fallen to the oldest trick in the book.Is he an agent?Gotta think a way to warn Kudo.*
"Anyway you can drop the act on me now Haibara,or should I call you Shiho?" said Max as he leaned closer.
"How...how did you..?" Haibara was visibly shaken by all this.
"Shinichi will faint and nobody will come looking for you...so I have all my own." said Max.
"Ok,I give up.But let Kudo live please,it's me you want." said Haibara.
"Huh? You gave up just like that?" asked Max bewildered.
"Yes,what do you aspect?" spat Haibara.*I'm going to miss all this and won't survive another one...good bye everyone.*
Max was quiet.Ranma came by his side."Yo Max,what's up? Who is this kid? Oh is he that Conan kid?"asked Ranma.
"Yes and no."said Max.
"Huh? What do you mean?" asked Ranma
"She is Ai Haibara,because Shinichi Kudo is in his body again" Points towards to group behind "So she needs to fill up for him as Conan."
"Oh,so what'cha gonna do?" asked Ranma as he shrugged.
"Nothing,for now...come on Ranma.Oh,and Ai,sorry about that.It was a quick joke.I'm gonna stay with the proff and you after a few weeks so please don't take this personally 'kay?" Max flashed a smile, after that Max and Ranma left.
"What the...he's living with ...who? The Proffessor is gonna do some explainning to me and it better be good." said Haibara.*Damn that was scary.Whoever he is,he's good....but not too good.* thought Ai as she blushed.
-------------------
At the Tendo Dojo.
-------------------
"Ok Max,now that I've mastered the screw upper,what shall we do next?" asked Ranma.
"Howabout we do some elemental attacks?" replied Max as he did a kata that Ranma showed him.
"Oh you mean like that Sub-Zero guy at Mortal Kombat or that cool fire attack like Kyo or Iori?" said Ranma as he finished the kata.
"Yeah something like that,so...wanna try it?" said Max as he too finished the kata.
"Alright.Let's do it,but how shall we begin?"
"We'll use your 'Soul Of Ice' as a base.Since it's a cold based attack we'll need to try and suck or absorb the cold air arround us into a ball of Ki.Then like the Mouko Takabisha,we release it,only we need not confidence but use calmness 'cos that is how you do the 'Soul of Ice' righ?" said Max.
"Ok first I'll teach you the Soul Of Ice." said Ranma.
After a few minutes....
"Ok,now you get the basics of the technique....all you have to do is maintain it." said Ranma.
After a few hours brooding in the dojo....
"Whew,I didn't know that it was THAT hard." said Max panting.
"Hey, I didn't get it on the first try ya know." said Ranma." And I think I can get the hang of it right now.Watch...Ice Blast !" shoutted Ranma.
Ranma stood in a half horse stance,he moved his hands in a circular patern then,hands cupped like when he's starting a Ki blast....Max felt the room temperature started to run down a few degrees.When Ranma felt all the cold of his body started to form in his hands,he continued to add in Ki ino it until it gave off a solf,light blue aoura.Then Ranma let go off his hands and away a quick blue ball of ice flew out the dojo folloewed by a cold breeze trailling it behind,leaving some fog.The blast hit a tree out side the dojo with a 'brack' sound.
"WHALAU-EH !! The tree...look at the tree ! You just freezed the freaking tree!" shoutted Max as he ran outside to inspect the result of the ice blast.
Truely enough the tree's lower half was embeded by a layer of cold ice and it was giving off cold vapours arround it.he scence was so sureal and it was a very beautiful sight to see.
"Wow,it worked." said Ranma.
"Ofcourse it worked.Hey that means we use the opposite and make a fire element attack as well.And maybe an electrical attack too." said Max.
"Yeah we could do that,but one at a time Max,you must first master the Soul of Ice." said Ranma.
"Yeah...you're probably right...Ok Let's do it." said a determinded Max.
Dinner Time at The Tendos.
----------------------------
"Give that back you damn Panda !!" shouted Ranma as he struggled for his pickle with Genma.Appearantly they were at it again with the food fight.Suddenly Ranma said in a cold and harsh voice."Give it back NOW.Or you'll regret it."
"Huh,what you're gonna do about it boy?"gruffed the panda man.
"Hmm...this.."Ranma made a circular motion with his hands and cupped it by his side.The heat surrounding him was tuned out immedietely as he formed a small grin."Ice Blast." and he unleashed his new attack at the unsusppecting idiot.What happened next was absolutely shocking to the Tendo family,not to mention a certain frozen panda.All but Kasumi and Max was looking dumbly at the scene while Ranma grabbed his father's remaining food on the plate.
Genma was frozen like a statue until he can't even feel his body but he was still countious and was thinking about what he could do if he had his hands on such technique,that was until he notice Ranma eating all his food that he tried to break free of his cold prison.But to no avail so he gave up and start thinking of ways to punish Ranma when he gets free.
"You know Mr.Saotome, you looked like that squierrel in 'Ice Age'." chuckled Max as he helped Kasumi with the dishes.
"Oh no Max-san,you're a guest.You mustn't trouble yourself."Said Kasumi cheerfully.
"It's ok, since I'm going to stay here I need to help out."said Max.
"Well it's good to see that at least 'someone' bothered to help out arround here,right Ranma?" smirked Nabiki.
"Yeah whatever,yo Max meet me at the dojo 'kay?" said Ranma while jumping out the door towards the Dojo.
"Sure." replied Max in the kitchen.
At the Kami-plane.
--------------------
"Well things are looking fine so far.Anything up your sleaves Goku-san?" asked Urd.
"Hmm...since Kami-sama put me in charge of the stuff there and he wants me to make it 'as-interesting-as-possible' for him so I gave the job to Loki." said Goku.
"Oh,ok...." just then it hit her "You WHAT !!! LOKI? As in Loki the God of Mischief ?" screamed Urd.
"You are as bad as Skuld here, Goku." shouted Venus.
"Hey I'm still here you know." grumbbles Skuld.
"Hehe,anyway just you wait and see." said Goku.
Back at The Animeverse....
Beika District.
-------------------------
"This is GREAT!" exclaimed Shinichi Kudo while wearing his Teitan high school uniform.Looking at himself by the mirror in his bathroom.It seems that he didn't turn back to a kid afterall.He could speak to Ran at will.He was happy....scratch that,he was very happy.Then he noticed a shadow behind him.
"Don't be too cocky Kudo.It's just a test tablet that I let you have.What where you thinking dashing out blowing your cover like infront of everybody? If it wasn't for your friend Heiji,he helped keep the whole thing under control by telling the crowd to keep the incident quite.But for how long.I don't know." the voice was his previuose vioce.'Conan' appeared and walked towards him.
"Heh,sorry ,I just got carried out by the sensation of a case." said Shinichi dumbly while trying to tie his neck tie.
"It's by the help of the Proffessors Voice changging device and this disguise that fooled everyone....well almost everyone.." said Haibara, the last sentence was bearly enough to be heard but being the detective he is,Shinichi heard it.
"What do you mean?" asked Shinichi after finishing the knot on his tie.
"Someone from the crowd saw through my disguise and he knew who we are...." trailled Haibara.
"What ?! We should do something,have you told Heiji or the prof.Agasa? Who is he?Is he from the BO(Black Organization)?" Shinichi held Haibara at the shoulders,shaking her.
"Wa...wait a minute.He didn't say much.He just said that he will be staying with us after a fe weeks and that's all I know.I...I think he means no harm." stuttered Haibara.
"Well if you say so,maybe he's related to the Proff' , but we can't be too sure." replied Shinichi,packing his bag.
"I've asked Agasa but he didn't say anything.Just keep a look out ok." after that she started leaving the room.
"Why are you helping me Haibara?" asked Shinichi.
Haibara blushed and replied "Don't be an idiot Kudo,I'm just doing this to observe my creation,namely ,you.If I were to took the pill I need to see the status of the effects." she walked to the exit but was stoped by Kudo again.
"Haibara, wait."
"What?" said Haibara,another blush was forming but the mouth cloth device was hidding it well.*What is it with me and this boy?*
Shinichi squatted beside Haibara."Can you please avoid using the voice of Conan in a girlish amnenr? It's a bit gross." asked Shinichi while he sweat dropped.
"Ara,I rather liked doing that." said Haibara as she walked away...finally.
Shinichi walked down the street with Ran by his side talking about yesterday at the fair.Today is the clean up for the food fair,the students need to help cleanup all the mess did by the audiences.Ran was talking none stop to Shinichi,Conan walked slowly beside them.Then Ayumi,Genta and Mitsuhiko.
Shinichi greeted the children who was running towards them."Hey everybody."
"Huh? who are you?" asked Genta.
"He's the one who lives beside proffessor's place." said 'Conan' still wearing the mask cloth.
"Oh, you mean that haunted house?" said Ayumi.
The children chatted together while they walk to school.Shinici just stood there.*I was once part of them...It's just like a dream.*
"Hey Shinichi we're getting late."
As lives goes on in The Beika District....someone is plotting against a certain someone....ok that doesn't make sense so I'll elaborate a little,better yet let yours truely bring you to the scene.
In an unknown building.
------------------------
"So Mr.Gin,what can I help you with?" said a small framed man sitting on a chair.It seems like he is the boss of the place,but things can change....
The man named 'Gin' replied, "I need assistance to clear of some evidence on my tail.Get someone on the job." it was a statement made by a man in a black coat with long brown hair,he was smoking nearby with his associate.
"I have just the team for you.Jack !" immediately a man wearing a jacket walked in."Send in Momochi and Haku.Tell them it's their new mission." said the small man.
"Yes sir." as Jack quickly exited.
A few minutes later,a puff of smoke appeared out of no where.Two figures emerge from the smoke.One was a man with baggy jeans,his face was covered with what seemed like bandages except his eyes and he have a Big sword at his back,he wore a black leather vest.The other was short with long sleeved sweater and a bun on his head.He wore a mask with wooden sandels.
"Well Mr Jones,are these your man?" asked the bulky one beside Gin.
"Yes they are Mr Vodka,meet Momochi Zabusa and his associate Haku.They were natives from an Island not far off the coast of Japan.The Island was hidden from normal people because it was filled with Ninjas and that is what Mr Zabusa is....a Ninja." said Jones.
"I ask for killers not some half dead mummy." said Gin.
"Mr Zabusa is one of the best.He is called the 'Demon' Zabusa and his name means 'Never Cut Twice' he has never failed me and whta makes you think your enemy can deal against one of the Seven Sword Ninjas Of The Hidden Mist?" said Jones proudly.
"You seemed confident in your men Jones.But we'll see." after that Gin and Vodka left with an envolope on the table.
"Zabusa,you are to arrive here and take orders from him." said Jones.
"Yes sir." after that he disappeared the same way.
In the Tendo Dojo...TWo days later.
-------------------
"Alright,I've managed the Ice Blast just as you Ranma." exclaimed Max.
"Yeah,and I can do that fire attack.I think I'll call it 'Raging Flame' what do you think?" said Ranma.He then started to gather some heat in his hand a twist it with a little forward thrust.A blast of flames appeared between his hands flying towards Max.The other just stood still but the flames didn't harm him.If you look closer you cloud see that is was not Max but a replica of him.It is a statue of Max and it was giving of vapours because of the encounter with the flames.
"Well that was close."said Max.
"What was that? Wait...it's the Ice Clone by Sub-Zero wasn't it? Cool !" said Ranma.
Suddenly a blur of black and white appeared out of nowhere and bumrushed Ranma.It soon turned to a ball of fire...wait...a ball of screaming fire?
"Owowowowowow hot hot !!! What have you done boy? " screamed Genma and Soun while being burned.
"Hah,that was my fire clone,just like Max.What do you want pop?" said Ranma who was standing beside Max.
"You must marry Akane boy,although putting your time in the arts is good but you need to complete and Unite the schools for the honour of the family." said Genma.
"Yes, and then only you can teach my darling Akane the arts and continue our school." Cried Soun,it seems that his tears is working as a fire extinguisher and it cleared the flames.
"Hmph,what do you know you moron,all you want is to eat of my hard sweat while you sit there with old man Tendo playing Shogi all day long.If you want to unite it so much,why don't YOU marry that uncute Tomboy and UNITE the schools." shouted Ranma.
"What !! How dare you." the two idiots attacked Ranma.
"Screw Upper!" A gust of wind blew over and a miniture tornado appeared from Ranma's fist and it blew the moronic duo away.
"Hmm...maybe you could come with me Ranma." said Max.
"What do you mean?"
"What I mean is when I leave,you leave with me.To Teitan High School."said Max
"But what about the Tendos?" asked Ranma.
"Well what about them? You've seen what they did and done in the past few years." said Max in a harsh voice.
"Well yeah but what about Akane?"
"HOW about her? Do you love her? No...before that ,do you even liked her?" said Max in a louder voice.
"I thought I loved her but she kept bashing me....and after the failed wedding attempt she still bashes me.Ucchan didn't go overboard again so I forgive her and she is happy with Konatsu.Shampoo is well...um...Shampoo." said Ranma.
"Yes,I know but can you take it anymore?I swear it's getting worser aand worser.I can't stand to see you like this.You should move out." said Max.
"But what will I do then? Staying with that proffessor isn't going to help." said Ranma.
"You can work at some restaurant." said Max meekly.
"Yeah right,what can I do? Be a waitress again? Like that's gonna happen...hey you know what.Since you came here I haven't been splashed or turned to a girl." said Ranma.
"Hmm...I don't know,maybe it's because I always warn you before we go any place with 'water' on it?" smirked Max .
"Maybe you're right." said Ranma rubbing his head.
"OK Let's do this one last time." said Max.
"Alright,Burning Knuckle !" cried Ranma.He made a dash towards Max while the fists were covered with pure ki.The punch hit Max dead on.Max was knocked over the flat wooden floor on the dojo.
"What the fuck? When can you do that?" Said Max while he tried to stand up,feeling the numbing sensation on his cheek.
"Since now.Try this,Reisenken." as he shouted,electric sparks could be seen appearing arround Ranma's fists and he dashed forward to smash Max in the chest.
"Crap,this is gonna hurt....only if it connects.Ice Clone." said Max as an icy statue of himself took his previous place.
Ranma's punch smashed through the frozen statue and make short work of it.Although Ranma's fist was protected by electricity
it wasn't meant for frostbites."You did that move from Benimaru,impresive." said Max appearing behind Ranma, hands by the waistline,feet appart."Dodge this,CHOU HODOUKEN REVISED: SHIN RYU HOKOUDAN !" A huge ball of Ki was formed by Max's cupped hands,beads of sweat was forming on his fore head and he let loose with a Ki blast equalvilient to a Prefect ShiShi Ho Kou Dan.
Ranma sweat dropped,"No way I'm gonna get hit by that." then leapt outside towards the backyard.He also shot two Mokou Takabishas at the ball of Ki in midair but the ki ball seemed to engulf the ki blasts and grew bigger.*Holy Shit !! Gotta do something before it destroys the whole place.*"Genbuu Ki Shield." Ranma make a cross with his both arms,blue ki covered his form and he tried to block the Ki blast.The ball of ki clashes with Ranma who was holding his ground but was stii struggling.*Damn too much force,wait I get it,I'll deflect the blast.* "Hiyaa ! TAICHI DEFLECTOR SHIELD !" the ball of Ki was deflected off to the horizon and disappeared,leaving Ranma panting and Max on the floor nearly passed out.
"Shit,I never knew that I had it in me." said Max.
"How do you get that strong in Ki blasts?" said Ranma,still struggling to get up.
"I added my Nine Solar Stance Ki reserves in it."
"Oh,that explains it,next time warn me if you're goin all out." said Ranma in a sarcastic tone.
"Sorry,*smirk* but I thought you could handle a small ball of ki like that."
"EXCUSE ME!!?? SMALL ??!!" shouted Ranma.
"Heh." sweat drop.
