RANMA VS TIEN

TROUBLES APLENTY.

A/N All italics are thoughts.

Ranma hurried through the streets of nerima heading towards the Kuno mansion.

He had managed to sneak out of the window after Nabiki gone to fetch him water.

"Ha who does she think she is trying to coop me up? All I received was one little bruise from Kuno and she's fussing all over me like I were a ten year old."

Although Ranma had tried to explain to Nabiki that he had only been scratched, the moment Nabiki saw the big ugly bruise running across his chest she had flipped out.

He had been forcibly taken to his bed despite his protests. Ranma had felt some guilt over the way he had ditched his wife but he brushed it away.

"She should have known better to leave me alone like that" Ranma mumbled.

To be honest Nabiki hadn't been stupid enough to trust Ranma. She had chained him to the bed after trussing him up like a turkey with rope.

But Ranma had been practicing escaping from chain's, ropes and handcuff's. (From nabiki's point of view these items were absolutely necessary when living with a reckless super strong martial artist. Ranma just thought of her as being a bigger control freak than akane.)

After his escape he quickly made his way to the Kuno mansion to have a talk with this tien fellow.

He quickly busted through the gates tossed Kodachi's alligator halfway across nerima (thankfully for the alligator its fall was broken by a tiny piglet .the alligator wasted no time in trying to eat It.) and beat up several of kuno's retainer's.

Finally after all of kuno's retainer's had been vanquished a thought appeared to Ranma as he gaze at the scene of devastation around him -- upturned plants, a destroyed pond, several bodies lying all around the place.

"Umm maybe using the umiksen would have been a better idea."

Just as he was about to become invisible to the naked eye he heard an all together familiar laughter.

"HO HO HO HO HO.So Saotome at last you have left your miserly old cow of a wife and come to sweep me off my feet."

Ranma sweat dropped.

"Miserly old cow" man there's going to be hell to pay if Nabiki hears that one

"Um Kodachi mind telling me where tien is?" Ranma asked as he dodged the prodigious amounts of poison kodachi was throwing.

"HO HO HO HO So you have learned of our torrid little romance have you you naughty boy. Fear not kodachi's woman enough for both tien and for you my love."

Torrid little romance? With KODACHI? JUST WHAT KIND OF PERSON IS THIS TIEN GUY ANYWAY?

"Well my pet shall we go upstairs and begin our own torrid romance."

"I'll think about it kodachi. If you let me talk to tien first."

Hah I have her now. Once she lets me talk to the tien guy I'll just run away. Damn I'm more evil than Nabiki herself

While gloating over his "subtle" and "brilliant" ruse Ranma failed to notice a flying rose which hit his face.

Instantly Ranma felt his muscles slacken as he crumpled to the ground.

"Now then my love shall we begin?" kodachi asked as she straddled Ranma.

Ranma tried desperately to move as kodachi leaned in to kiss him. His every muscle felt as if it was on fire. The poison aggravated the pain from the bruise he got from Kuno.

He tried to scream at kodachi but only a pitiable whimper came out as kodachi started peppering his face with kisses.

FUCK FUCK FUCK NABIKI'S GOING TO KILL ME FOR THIS!!

. . . . . . . .

Nabiki jumped across the rooftops of nerima trying to reach the Kuno mansion as soon as possible. Strapped to her bag was her first aid kit which held about every antidote under the sun to counteract kodachi's poisons.

STUPID BAKA! Running off with an injury like that while I was getting water for him .He's going to regret this.

Cursing Ranma under her breath Nabiki jumped from rooftop to rooftop. As she was focused on insulting and beating an invisible Ranma she lost her balance and fell to the ground with a sickening thud.

Thankfully for her Ranma had taught her how to break her fall. Only her ego and her butt had been bruised.

Nabiki groaned as she realized people were staring at her.

Damn I can't believe these people. Ranma's been living with them for years and they still stare when a beautiful woman drops out of the sky.

BLAM BLAM

Two bullets whizzed past Nabiki. Nabiki rolled to the right and took cover behind a car as she assessed her opponents.

She saw two men in suits holding colt.45's come running towards her hiding place.

"Damn it's them again" Nabiki exclaimed.

She jumped out from behind the car and charged at the two men while dodging bullets.

She delivered a karate chop to the first man's hand making him drop his gun and finished him off with a roundhouse kick.

The second goon smashed the butt of his revolver against nabiki's nose crushing it.

Nabiki retaliated with a punch that send him flying a good five feet.

"Ow ow ow this is why I like leaving this kind of stuff for Ranma to handle"

Nabiki moaned as she gingerly examined her nose.

I wonder if I should make Ranma suffer for my broken nose too.

BAD NABIKI: DUH! If the arrogant jerk hadn't run off without you, you wouldn't have been in this mess. Make him regret this.

GOOD NABIKI: it isn't poor Ranma Kun's fault. He's just too eager when it comes to martial arts. That being said that bastard is starting to get out of hand I would MAKE HIM SUFFER if I were you.

Nabiki felt faintly worried that her good side was just as bad if not worse than her bad side. She wondered if this was normal. Then she decided that making Ranma dear SUFFER was more important than worrying about her conscience.

Her musing was interrupted when a black tried to run her down. It was filled with men holding impressive looking guns who seemed intent on killing her.

Nabiki jumped out of the way and started running.

There's too many of them for me to handle. RANMA WHERE ARE YOU?

No matter how hard she tried she couldn't loose them.

A hail of bullets flew over her head as she pushed and shoved through men women and little dogs in her desperation to get away from the car

Then she ran into a dead end.

The car screeched to halt and men poured out from the vehicle.

"Oh shit I'm dead" she thought as the men started firing.

A/n how will Ranma escape from the clutches of kodachi? Who's trying to kill Nabiki? Will she survive? All this and more next time.
