Enter the Wolf
Chapter Ten
Kasumi just watched him leave. 'He deserves to be happy' she thought before going to her room to work out a plan.
A month had passed since Happosai's death though no one mourned him. Ookami and Akane still trained under Ranma both had mastered the Kachu Tenshin Amaguriken (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire). Kasumi had worked out a plan and today it would begin.
"Ok try again and remember it's going to be different for you so use whatever name you think fits" said Ranma who was trying to teach Ookami the Moko Takabisha
Ookami's aura flowed around him as he began to push it into his hand "Ookami Atama Bakuhatsu (Wolf Head Blast)" yelled Ookami as a large snarling wolfs head erupted from his fist to tear his target into nothingness his target happened to be a picture of kuno which he had gotten from Nabiki (don't ask how).
"Wow that was amazing." said Ranma
"Yeah not bad bro." said a voice from the porch
"What the hell are you doing here?" asked a disbelieving Ookami
"I got a letter from some girl named Kasumi that said you wanted to talk to me." replied the stranger
"Who is this guy?" asked Ranma looking at the stranger who was wearing tan slacks and a black T-shirt with three green dots on it that made up a triangle (My brother is a huge Splinter Cell fan) with white Adidas on his feet.
"Oh, sorry Ranma this is my brother Pansa Ryu, Pansa this is my friend and sensi Ranma Saotome." said Ookami making introductions
"What did you want to talk to me about?" asked Pansa
"Nothing I never told her to contact you." answered Ookami
"So I came all this way for nothing?" asked Pansa
"Yup but since you're here you might as well stay for dinner Kasumi is the best cook." replied Ookami
"Ok but that food had better be worth the plane ticket." said Pansa
"Believe me it is." said Ookami and Ranma
"Who's your friend Ookami?" asked Nabiki seductively
"That's my brother and you better watch it Nabs he's married." Replied Ookami with a chuckle
"Yeah I'm married but if I wasn't." said Pansa eyeing Nabiki
"Watch it bro she'll drain you of every last cent or yen considering where we are and throw you back to Tiga." said Ookami "Speaking of which where is she?"
"She's back at home." Replied Pansa
"Does she know you're here?" asked Ookami
"She doesn't own me I don't have to tell her everywhere I go."replied Pansa hotly
"Yeah but I think she may be pissed that you left the country and traveled around the world without telling her." Said Ookami
"So what I told her I was going out." said Pansa offhandedly
"There is a difference in going out and going to Japan bro." stated Ookami
"So, What's she gonna do about it?" asked Pansa
"Give her three days tops and she'll be here looking for you." replied Ookami
"Think so?" asked Pansa
"Yep you may wanna think about what you're gonna say. I'm gonna go talk to Kasumi." replied Ookami
"Alright but when she gets here I'm blaming you." Pansa called after him
Ookami walked into the kitchen where Kasumi was preparing dinner and sat down at the table "So what other surprises do you have in store Kasumi?" asked Ookami
"I don't know what you're talking about." said Kasumi without turning around
"Oh come on this isn't Nabiki's style she would have blackmailed me and Akane and Ranma are to busy with training and (cough) other activities so it has to be you." reasoned Ookami
"We'll I may have invited your brother for a visit." said Kasumi sheepishly
"So sending him a letter telling him that I needed to speak with him counts and inviting him for a visit?" asked Ookami dryly
"Ok I tricked him but I thought you seemed lonely, I'm sorry." said Kasumi
"I'm not mad Kasumi I'm happy that I get to see my brother but I would have appreciated a heads up." Said Ookami
"Oh I thought you would be mad at me." said Kasumi
"No I'm not mad but you do know that where ever me and my brother are the pack will gather. Don't you?"
"Yes I figured as much." said Kasumi
"And you know that when ever my pack gathers she will come looking for me." said Ookami
"Yes I know." replied Kasumi
"Lastly did you know that I will leave before she gets here and will never be able to come back?" asked Ookami
"Why would you do that?" asked a shocked Kasumi
"I'm a freak, I have countless governments and scientists who want me as a specimen so they can create copies of me and I don't want her mixed up in that." answered Ookami
Akane had walked in sometime during the conversation and said "You should let her decide if she wants to be involved it's not fair to push her away without her knowing why."
"Ok you win when she shows up I'll tell her." conceded Ookami
"Alright and when are you going to let me use that damn spell?" asked Pansa from behind him
"You still hung up on that?" Ookami shot back
"Hell yes I'm still hung up on that I don't wanna be human any more than you did." said Pansa
"Alright fine but you do know that you can't undo this right?" Ookami asked
"Yeah I know." replied Pansa
"Mind if I watch?" asked Ranma
"If you want to." said Ookami and Pansa
A few minutes later Pansa was sitting on the ground in the back yard. "Alright take your shirt off." ordered Ookami
"Why?" asked Pansa
"Because it really itches if you don't" replied Ookami
"Oh ok."
"Well then here is the spell read it word for word and don't tear up the book once it starts to take effect." said Ookami
"What do you mean take effect?" asked Pansa
"It's gonna hurt like hell, it's gonna feel like you are being ripped apart from the inside out." answered Ookami
"Oh well in that case I'll push th book at you once I finish the spell." said Pansa
"Good idea." said Ookami
Pansa began to recite the spell and while Ookami and Ranma watched everyone else was in the house not interested in seeing another wolf or so they thought. Once the spell was through Pansa began to scream as he shoved the book to Ookami. His fur began to sprout but it wasn't like Ookami it was shorter but still black. His tail grew longer and his ears were not as long as Ookamis by the end of the transformation it was obvious he wasn't a wolf. During this process Ranma was steadily backing away his face caught in a silent scream until his back hit the house. As Pansa stood and looked at his brother Ookami noticed that his eyes were now blue with white vertical slits as well as the fact that his brother wasn't a wolf like him but a panther.
"C C C CAT!" screamed Ranma
Pansa grabbed his new cats ears in pain "Stop yelling you little shit!"
"Ranma what's wrong?" asked Ookami as he walked towards his friend
"Meow" said Ranma as he crouched down on all fours
Before Ookami knew what was happening Ranma jumped at him hissing in anger. Ranma bounced off of Ookami's head and launched himself at Pansa.
"What the hell?" was all that Pansa could say before Ranma was on him trying to claw at him.
Akane ran outside wondering what was going on but as soon as she got out the door she knew what it was. Ranma had fallen into the Neko Ken (Cat fist) and was attacking Pansa who because his change was new to him was barely dodging some of Ranmas blows.
"What the fuck is wrong with this kid?" yell Pansa ducking a swipe of Ranma's chi claws
"Ranma, come here kitty." called Akane
Ranma immediately stopped attacking and bounded over to his fiancee.
"You better get him out of here, Ranma's fear of cats makes him like this." Said Akane to Ookami while pointing to Pansa
"Ok I'll take him into the dojo and teach him how to change back." said Ookami before waving Pansa over "Come on bro."
"Fuck no I'm gonna beat this kids ass!" yelled Pansa
"Shut up, calm down and come with me." Said Ookami
"But..." Pansa started
"NOW!" yelled Ookami interrupting his brother
"Fine but I want a rematch." said Pansa before following his brother
"Ok we're here now what?" asked Pansa impatiently once they were in the dojo
"If you'll shut up for a minuet I will tell you." replied Ookami hotly
"First you are going to retract your claws." said Ookami
"How?" asked Pansa
"It's a part of your body you can control it." replied Ookami
Pansa just stared at his hands for a few moments before his claws retract "Cool."
"Ok next the fangs this one will be tricky you will have to think about how your teeth were before the change and force your body to change back, it's gonna hurt." said Ookami
Pansa closed his eyes and a moment later screamed as his teeth shifted back to their original state. "You weren't kidding that hurt like hell."
"It gets less painful the more times you change, next the earsand tailsame as the teeth." Stated Ookami
Pansa just gritted his teeth as his ears and tail immediately began to recede "Is the whole thing this painful?" asked Pansa
"Now the fur, and this will hurt worse." said Ookami calmly
"Fuck." saidPansa as he forced his fur to disappear "Ok anything else?"
"The eyes, this wont hurt at all." said Ookami "just close your eyes and envision them the way they were."
Pansa did as he was asked and his eyes reverted to their natural color. "Ok now what?"
"Dinner's ready." called Kasumi
"Now we eat." answered Ookami with a grin
After the meal and a thorough beating of Genma when Ranma explained about the neko ken
"Maybe we can help." said Ookami
"How?" asked Ranma
"I used to be afraid of a lot of things but I faced my fears and overcame them maybe that's all you have to do is face your fear." suggested Ookami
"We tried that." mentioned Kasumi
"Was Ranma prepared then?" asked Ookami
"No they just let in a bunch of cats." answered Ranma
"Well facing your fears isn't an easy thing to do, you need to be prepared." said Ookami
"What do you mean Prepared?" asked Ranma
"I mean mentally prepared." answered Ookami
"How do we do that?" questioned Ranma
"First we get some sleep we will get to work in the morning." replied Ookami "Bro you can sleep in my room."
So everyone in the house went to sleep wondering what Ookami had planed. Except Pansa who was fantasizing about beating Ranma for humiliating him.
Xero Reflux Strike: I understand that what I described isn't physically possible but this is the Ranmaverse and we are dealing with an angry shape shifter who has super human strength and speed so I think physics took a vacation. No offense.
AN: Hope you liked the chapter I'm going to start introducing the rest of my Pack with 'her' coming last. Also only one more will get the shape shifting ability. Until next time.
