Mahoromatic Maiden : Ranma's New Life
Chapter 2 : You're a WHAT?
"Let me get this straight, Earth was subjected to an alien invasion, while none of us knew about it, and a super, secret organization called Vesper was formed in order to defend ourselves from aliens? And you're not really a girl, but an ultimate combat android programmed by scientists at Vesper?" Ranma asked, obviously confused.
"Yes, exactly right!" Mahoro said while smiling, while Ranma had a 'yeah right, do you take me for an idiot?' look on his face.
'I think that an android whose a maid is just a little too much for me to believe.' Ranma thought, while trying to keep a straight face.
' Of course, what she did on that bus was pretty unbelievable, I mean even I can't stop bullets with my bare hands!' Ranma pondered.
-Sigh-
'Alright I guess I just have to believe her' Ranma thought.
"Ok then, If you're really an android, why did you decide to become a maid?" Ranma asked. Mahoro's smile fell a little.
"I worked as a combatant ever since I was constructed, but now I've been relieved of that duty, I suppose I could've lived the rest of my life in easy comfort, but if don't have something to do all day, everyday will just seem so boring." Mahoro said as she closed her eyes. Then Mahoro continued on about her life as a combat android droning on and on about what people did at Vesper.
Ranma's head was in turmoil, many things going through at once, and It was giving him a head ache!
"Ok ok just stop for a second!" Ranma asked a little too forcibly.
"Um ok, but Master Ranma, do you think it would be possible if you could hire me as your maid?" Mahoro asked. Ranma then closed his eyes, wondering what to do.
'Well, I guess I've been a little lazy these days, not taking care of the house and all. I'm always out going to abandon warehouses practicing my katas, and coming back late at night. I guess I could try it for a while.' Ranma thought.
Sigh Ranma then opened his eyes, only to find Mahoro's face inches away from his own, staring at him.
"YAAHH!" -Thunk-Groan-
"ow…" Ranma groaned.
"OH, Master Ranma! Are you ok?" Mahoro asked worriedly.
"Yeah I'm fine, don't worry about me." Ranma said as he snapped back onto his feet, using his martial arts. Ranma stretched, causing his back to make a popping sound.
-Sigh-
"Ok Mahoro, how about this, for now I can contract you on a trial basis, and see how everything goes, after that if you do a good job, lets make it permanent." Ranma said. Mahoro gasped happily.
"Oh thank you, thank you, I promise you won't regret it Master Ranma!" Mahoro said as she stood up.
"Now then, I may as well get started right away!" Mahoro said.
"Uh right, ok then follow me." Ranma said as he stood up, walking towards the hallway. Mahoro followed.
-HALLWAY-
"I guess I can start by showing you around the house" Ranma said, while pointing at the mess on each side of the wall. Mahoro still had a smile on her face.
-STAIRS-
"Um watch your step." Ranma said while jumping over piles of trash. Mahoro's smile fell a little.
-SECOND FLOOR-
"Oh, don't mind the mess." Ranma said. Mahoro had a sad, wistful look on her face.
-Ranma's ROOM-
"Well, this is my room." Ranma said nervously.
"This must be the center of the chaos, I'll just have to work at it until I can find the floor!" Mahoro said with a determined look on her face.
-HALLWAY-
"Now um, this was my parents room, but, well, you'll see." Ranma said, as he entered the last room in the hallway. Mahoro followed.
"Well um, its very clean as you can see, I was thinking maybe you should use it." Ranma said, while standing in the middle of his parents room. Mahoro looked around. She saw a picture of Ranma's mother and father, holding a chibi-ranma while smiling at the camera.
"Its kind of a big house so, lets just concentrate on the important living areas first, ok?" Ranma asked.
"Sure"
-
-Click-
"This is the guest room, and the room right next to it is the living room." Ranma explained.
"Well Mahoro, do you want to get star-" Ranma paused as he saw that Mahoro wasn't next to him anymore. He looked around and found Mahoro about to open a practically bursting closet. Ranma panicked.
"No don't open THAT!" Ranma said as he ran towards Mahoro, but to no avail as Mahoro already peeked inside to find that the sliding door was blasted off its hinges and a giant tidal wave of boxers came roaring at her and Ranma.
"AHH" "Wait!" "Damn IT"
"OuCH!"
-FWOOOSH- Mahoro, obviously knocked out, was floating on top of the giant sea of boxers while Ranma was what appeared to be drowning as his hand was the last thing left of him before completely disappearing under the boxers. A faint cry of help was heard.
-
"Well I should get dinner started Master Ranma." Mahoro said, as she rolled up her sleeves and tightened her apron. Ranma just nodded, obviously still out of it since that boxer incident.
"Well lets see what we have here" Mahoro said as she opened the fridge.
-Sssssshhhhh- Green smoke was seen, as a slab of meat started growling at her. Mahoro sweatdropped as she got the piece of meat and threw it in the disposer. Sad whimpering was heard as the meat was cut into pieces.
"Well this is ok, this one is barely ok, this one has to go and oh!" Mahoro exclaimed as Ranma peered at her to see what all the excitement was about.
Mahoro had "something green" in her hand as she said, "Master Ranma, I see you really like blue cheese!" Ranma sweatdropped.
"I think I had a bite of that 3 years ago." Ranma said embarrassingly. Mahoro facefaulted.
-
Mahoro hummed as she washed the dishes.
"Are you hungry Master Ranma?" Mahoro asked as she got ahold of a small pot, filled it with water, and put it on the oven.
"Uh yeah I'm starving!" Ranma said. Mahoro then got a kitchen knife and an onion and held them both in the air.
"In that case, I'll make something right away." Mahoro said.
She then threw both items in the air, disappeared, and reappeared a second later with the kitchen knife in her hand and the now sliced onions fell into the pot. Ranma sweatdropped.
'I wonder what she's making?' Ranma wondered.
-10 minutes later-
"WoW! Oyako Don! It looks great!" Ranma said as he didn't even give Mahoro a chance to speak before digging in.
"Well, I just used what I could find in the fridge an-"Finished!" Ranma exclaimed, while holding a glistening bowl. Mahoro sweatdropped.
"Well would you like seconds?" Mahoro asked. Ranma declined and said he was going to go take a bath.
"Oh well I guess it's dinner time for me too!" Mahoro said to herself as she got herself a bowl.
-
-BATH-
"Brr, cold" Ranma said as he dumped a bucket of cold water on top of himself. He then got into the tub of hot water.
-Sigh-
'Mahoro seems like a good person and a very hard worker. Maybe I should hire her.' Ranma thought. He then sensed someone coming.
'Mahoro?' Ranma wondered.
'She's not going to come in here, that's just crazy, but she did say she was an android, and she might not know any better!' Ranma thought worriedly.
-Oh crap- The bath door slid open to reveal a naked Mahoro, while holding a small hand towel in her hand.
"Master Ranma, I am here to wash your back so you can be nice and cle- huh?" Mahoro paused. She entered the bath room to find no one inside. Mahoro was confused.
"I could've sworn Ranma was in here a minute ago, oh well I might as well take a bath while I'm here." Mahoro said happily as she proceeded to take a shower before entering the hot tub.
Ahh Mahoro then saw footprints on the steamed bathroom floor, indicating someone was indeed here before she came in.
"hmm?"
-Outside Bathroom-
Ranma then reappeared outside the bath room with a towel around his waist while he held his clothes under his arm.
'Whoa, that was close, good thing I didn't forget how to use the Umi-Sen-ken.' Ranma thought.
'She REALLY doesn't know any better, but she really doesn't have any place to go, and if I do fire her…' Ranma then got a piece of paper from his pants pocket, and used the wall as leverage as he signed his name on the bottom of the sheet of paper.
-Sigh- Ranma went beside the bathdoor and said "Mahoro, I'm going to leave the contract on the living room table, I've decided to make it permanent ok?" Ranma shouted out. Several noises are heard inside the bath. Mahoro then came out the bath door, completely naked, with water glistening on her skin, as she suddenly hugged Ranma tightly, babbling about how much she appreciated his decision. Ranma was obviously out of it, with blood pouring from his nose, and his head hanging from Mahoro's shoulder.
-Life is definitely going to be a lot more interesting from now on-
TBC.
