Ranma; Just Plain Hard
Part 11
'We ain't Front'n No Mo'
"'Aight, you got my attention now," Ranma stated with a cocky smirk under his glasses, "You really ready to do this?"
"Good, I believe this means you'll stand still while I rip you limb from limb with my bare hands?" Ryoga seethed with a piercing glare towards his rival, "I guess you're not as much of a cowardly bastard as you make yourself out to be." He blinked, as well as everyone else witnessing this battle, when Ranma seemed to 'suddenly' appear in Ryoga's face.
"Word."
Before Ryoga's umbrella could even clatter to the ground, Ranma was in the air, descending towards the position where Ryoga's skidding body would stop. Ryoga rolled out of the way just before Ranma's stomp created a crater in the ground. The bandanna clad young man lashed out with a foot sweep that Ranma leapt over, and towards Ryoga in order to pin him to the ground. Ryoga rolled onto his back and lashed out with a rising kick in which Ranma twisted out of the way just in time to avoid getting his jaw dislocated, and jumped back. Ryoga used the momentum from his kick to roll back and to his feet.
As soon as he was braced, Ryoga leapt at Ranma with a dashing punch. Ranma danced out of the way to his left, and lashed at Ryoga face with a hard left jab. Ryoga ducked to the outside of the punch, and retaliated with a rising left crescent kick. Ranma weaved back to the right under Ryoga's kick, and threw two jabs against Ryoga's face, staggering him.
Ryoga spun away before Ranma could follow up hard right cross, attempting to land a spinning right backfist against his opponent. Ranma pulled his right arm up into a guard, and didn't anticipate the power of Ryoga's blow, as he was sent staggering to the side. The Yakuza fighter then lashed out with a right thrust kick, which Ranma parried with both his hands, intercepting it and pushing it down to the ground. Ranma had robbed the momentum from Ryoga's kick, and used it into his leaping spin to his right. Ranma put a great deal of power into the attack, and even though Ryoga brought up a cross arm guard and braced for the impact, he was still sent sliding five meters away.
Both Nabiki and Akane, along with the rest of the remaining students of Furinkan, looked upon the initial start of the fight in awe. Both Ranma and Ryoga were showing skill that had been previously unparalleled in any public display in Nerima.
"Whoa, he was definitely holding back on you, Sis," Nabiki whispered in hushed awe. She only recieved a slow nod from Akane in responce. She currently wasn't too proud to admit that she couldn't stand up to that.
Ranma landed with both hands planted on the ground in front of him, while his right let was extended out to the side of him and his left leg tucked under him, "Props, props, yo!"
Ryoga snorted, "You sound like a damn idiot, you know that? And I've had bitches sack me harder than your fucking weak hits!"
"What the FUCK you smoking?" Ranma asked, "I fucking nearly broke your arms with that kick, nigga!"
"Heh, pure bullshit. Your girl must be rubbing off on you, because you hit AND act like a whining Pussy!"
Ranma's smirk dropped like a rock down a hyper gravity well, "Wazzat again?"
"What? I hit a nerve with the little cunt?" Ryoga asked snidely, "I'll tell you what, you can suck me off, that is after I'm finished slamming your loose ass all over the place!" Ryoga probably shouldn't have closed his eyes to laugh, or laughed, or even started the fight to begin with.
"YOU. DONE. NOW. *FUCKED*. UP!" Ranma shouted, puncuating every work with heavier blows than he was using prior. The final one sent Ryoga skyrocketing into the sky. Ranma raced to where Ryoga was heading to find a fence in his way, he quickly ran up it, and launched himself into the air to meet Ryoga, "GET BACK HERE, BITCH, I'M NOT THROUGH TEARING YOUR ASS UP!"
Nabiki flinched at each blow Ranma delivered, and stared in both shock and relief when he sent the other boy flying into the sky. her relief was short lived, when she saw Ranma follow. "Nabiki! Come on, or we'll miss this!" Akane shouted, waiting for her sister to snap out of her trance. Nabiki quickly brought herself back to reality, but could not hide the concerned expression on her face.
Ryoga flipped himself right side up, and met Ranma in mid-air combat. They both fiercely traded blows as they were descending, and Ranma caught the location of where they both were about to land, "Oh, dayamn..." Ryoga looked down when Ranma paused, and shrugged uncaringly.
Concrete and water were sent flying about, with a red headed young woman rolling out from the destroyed fountain. She searched for any sign of her opponent, and turned back to the fountain just in time to have Ryoga leap out of it with a fierce descending punch. Ranma had leapt out of the way, and was about to retaliate, but not before...
"Whoops! Sorry cutie! I didn't mean to startle you like that." Ranma blinked, as she found Ryoga's arm around her shoulder, with him leaning against her with a friendly smile, "You see, I was actually attempting to punish this bastard for what he did to me, and the damn coward left you in his place. Name's Ryoga, Ryoga Hibiki, yours?"
Ranma slowly pulled Ryoga's arm off her, and gently wrenched it into an arm lock, "Ranma, Ranma Saotome, you fucking dick."
Ryoga's eyes went wide, realizing that 'she' was wearing the same clothes around that hot ass body of hers that his hated nemesis did, along with the same dark shades. The poetic irony of his comment was realized to him, when he considered Jusenkyo, "Ra-Ranma... you're...*snicker*."
Ranma snarled, and wrenched Ryoga's arm tighter, "Yeah, go ahead and laugh your ass off. You're gonna miss it when I'm done with you."
"Oh yeah, we're in the middle of a fight," Ryoga began to recall as an after-thought, before using his own might over Ranma's girl form to reverse the arm bar, "I think I'm gonna have a little fun with this body of yours, before I put you out of my misery."
Suddenly, Ranma's battle aura went visible into a chaotic pattern of black and red that left her seeming so much more menacing than Ranma had ever been before, "Let. go. of. me."
Ryoga ignored the obvious warning of extreme danger, "What's that, you little cunt? 'Let's Go'? I bet you're all wet for me already!" Ryoga chuckled, and was fortunate enough to pull his head back from having it blown off by a glock.
Ryoga skipped back, suddenly weary of the redhead. Ranma spun around towards Ryoga, with *two* guns trained on him, and opened fire. Ryoga danced out of the way, allowing the bullets to leave black and red flashes as they connected with whatever stopped them.
"YOU'RE DEAD, YOU HEAR THAT, HIBIKI? YOUR FUCKING ASS IS DEAD!" Ranma-chan shouted while totally enraged, as she continued firing with intent to kill.
"RANMA!" The redhead paused, as a great deal of her anger collapsed under the stress in Nabiki's voice.
"Nabiki?" Ranma almost whispered, turning back to see the girl nearly in tears, with her younger sister standing beside her looking at Ranma with a concerned by fearful look. Ranma suddenly looked down at the two guns that were in her handss, and whispered to herself, "Oh, damn." With a deep breath, she willed them away.
"AN OPENING!" Ryoga shouted, suddenly ripping off several bandannas from his forehead, and launching them at Ranma.
"LOOK OUT!" Someone in the crowd shouted, just in time for the redhead to turn, and dodge out of the way of the barrage. Unfortunately, Nabiki didn't do the same, as she was frozen to the spot, staring at oncoming danger.
"NABIKI! GET DOWN!" Akane shouted, pushing her sister out of the way. Akane didn't 'fully' make it out of the way, herself, unfortunately.
Ranma was already on Ryoga with a kick to the stomach, and a follow up uppercut, puncuated with a baseball bat, that sent Ryoga back into the friendly skies once again, before turning back to Nabiki and Akane, "Yo, Nabiki! You alright? speak to me!"
Nabiki could only stare at her sister in shock, while Akane was too concerned with Nabiki's welfare to realize that she was staring at her for a reason, "Nabiki? Say something!"
"A-A-Ak..." was all she could get out, as she pointed to Akane's head.
"What? My makeup smeared? Really, you almost get yourself hurt, and you're worried about my appearance!" Akane said with an incredulous tone.
"I think she's talking about this..." Ranma held up what hadn't managed to escape Ryoga's bandanna barrage for Akane's inspection. Slowly, Akane reached to the back of her head, and felt something missing.
Ranma herself had to admire the aura Akane was building, after her initial shock had worn off.

Ryoga descended right through the roof of a public bath house, causing the few occupants it had inside to scurry in fear. Out of one of the larger hot tubs, Ryoga crawled out, shivering. He was pale, with bags under his eyes, and looked extremely worse for wear. With a pronounced stagger, Ryoga stumbled out of the bath house, bracing himself shakily against any supports he came by. On his lips, he mumbled the mantra, "Ranma.... need.... to find Ranma..."
