Ranma 1/2
Changes: Chapter XVIII. Revenge of Lost Love
Drake made it to the dojo grounds with Akari in his arms and Ryouga over his shoulder. Drake contemplated changing Ryouga into a pig, but decided against it since he didn't know what that might do to Ryouga's broken ribs. He was releaved to see that Dr. Tofu was already there.
"Drake, what happened?" Dr. Tofu asked.
"Happosai stikes again." Drake comented. "I need you to help Ryouga, I can take care of Ukyo and Akari."
"Alright."
"Hey." Said Ranma. "Whadya mean you can help em? You tellin me you can restore life-force?"
"I've got some herbs that can, yes. Let's put Akari and Ukyo in the same room." Drake said.
"They sure are brave." Kasumi said after they'd left the room.
"Yeah, they are sis." Nabiki laughed. "Too bad they're both practicaly taken."
"Nabiki!" Kasumi chided.
"What? It's true." Nabiki said.
"But what about that Kuno boy, I remember you two" Kasumi was cut off by Nabiki.
"Shh! I told you not to ever bring that up!" Nabiki said.
"Oh yes, that's right." Kasumi smiled.
"Hello? Anyone here?" A voice called out.
Nabiki and Kasumi ran to the front door to find Genma holding Nodoka in his arms.
"Oh my!" Kasumi exclaimed.
"What happened Genma?" Nabiki asked.
"The master attacked us. He did something to Nodoka, I'm not sure what."
"Let's put her on the couch." Kasumi said.
XD
Akane was still practicing in the dojo. She'd managed to work through the entire kata once without fail. She was smiling to herself when Ranma walked in.
"Hey! I did the whole thing Ranma!" Akane said.
"That's good, Akane. We, uh, need to talk." Ranma said.
"Sure, what's up Ranma?"
"Happosai's back. He's gained alot of power Akane. He attacked Ucchan." Ranma was Shaking as he spoke.
"Is she okay?"
"She's in a coma, Akane. Drake's got some medicine that's gonna heal her, but that ain't the point! I want you to be careful. Okay, Akane?" Akane nodded.
"Ranma, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Oh, by the way, Ryouga's here." Akane's eyes lit up. "But so's Akari." Akane's face dropped.
"Oh, I see. Thanks."
XD
Tofu walked into the room where Akari and Ukyo were resting. He watched carfully as Drake mixed some herbs togather and fed them to the girls.
"What was that Drake?" Tofu asked.
"It's an old Chinese herb capable of restoring a person's life-force." Drake responded.
"You'll have to show me how to make that one."
"I would, but this was the last of my herbs. How's Ryouga holding up?"
"He'll be fine, I'd say he'll be back to normal in about a week. Now, do you mind if I check on those two?"
"There's no point." Tofu raised an eyebrow. "Physically they're fine, all the freak did was drain thier energy."
"You talk about him like you know everything about him."
"I do. Do you remeber when he left Nerima about a year ago?"
"Why yes, that was shortly after I returned."
"Well I'm the one whose been putting up with him since then. I was one of the first to know about his new powers."
"I see."
"I'll make sure he dies this time."
"Are you sure killing him is the answer?"
"Of course I am. Do you know why he attacked the Joketsuzoku? It's because they didn't let him escape with all of the things he wanted to steal from them. He does these horrible things because he thinks they're fun."
"Maybe if you just beat him he'll learn."
"Just look at what he did!" Drake yelled. "He nearly killed both Ukyo and Akari! And he did do it for fun! Don't tell me that he doesn't deserve to die! You don't know all of the lives he crushed in China!"
"Drake, I'm sorry."
"Just leave me alone."
"Alright, Ill do that." Tofu left the room.
Drake looked over at Uyko. "I'll make certain that he pays for this Uyko." Drake looks out the window towards the sky. "Don't worry, Sazuka, I havn't forgotten you."
XD
"HE DID WHAT!" Ranma yelled. Akane had decided to come back inside and see what everyone was up to.
"It's as I said boy, the master blew up our house." Genma said.
"What about mom?"
"She'll be fine boy, the doctor told me so himself."
Ranma's aura began glowing again. "Damn him!"
Drake came walking down the stairs. "Save your energy Ranma. It's a safe bet that he'll come here next."
"Alright, I'm ready for him!" Akane said.
"I don't think so." Drake said.
"But, why?" Akane whined.
"Cuz Akane, the freak actually steals life-force now. It's too dangerous." Ranma said.
"You said he blew up your house?" Drake asked.
"Yes he did." Genma stated.
"So what Ranma? What's gonna happen when he splashes you?" Akane asked.
"I can help with that." Said Dove. Everyone in the room looked at her.
"Hey, who is she anyways?" Asked Akane.
"She's an amazon elder, like Cologne. What did you have in mind?" Drake said.
"I happen to have some water proof soap, now this won't last forever Ranma, but hopefully it'll be long enough for you and Drake to beat Happosai." Dove said.
"Yeah, me too." Ranma said.
XD
Happosai was standing outside the dojo walls. "Now it's time, they'll all regret ruining my fun!"
End Chapter 18
Sorry bout the wait all.
Wonderbee31: Yeah, he never really cared who he upset, so long as he got to have fun. I just hope I can write the next few chapters the way I want to.
Innortal: This chapter lacked a good portion of what I wanted to do, but the next chapter should make up for that. I hope.
nonengel: If I do a sequal, which I'm still thinkin about, It'll explain everything. But yeah, Drake was trained by an elder even though he was a banished male. However, his training didn't shift to 'Kill Happosai' until after the attack against the Joketsuzoku Approx. a year ago in this story line.
JohnnyG: Thank ya.
ss4-link: Lol, calm down. Response to Random Quote: Lol, I'm still gettin a handle on who those few are.
ranryu26: Okay. (Files away another ballot) And that's one more for the threesome. Could you tell me the whole adress on that, please? I couldn't find it last time I tried.
dana-san: Thank you. I'm just trying to fous to make sure that the fight scene works. I've got the most of it planned.
