Chapter 46 – The Lightning Bender

"How are things in Heaven and Hell these days?" Top Hat said as she greeted the two sisters that came to her today. They were standing at a wooden walkway that's built over a deep pool of red water.

"What you think your brother went and beat everyone at the control room within an inch of their lives. Resetting the controls for the Suikoden world so that time is almost to a stand still there," Urd said wondering why mom and dad sent her no good half sister along with her.

"All of the demons that he chased out of Demon World, have caused a crowding problem that is stretching us to the limits. Even if demons are going back to the Demon World there's still an overcrowding problem as he went and scared them good," Mara said thinking the same thoughts about her half sister as well.

"Well he does have that way with him," Top waved them off, "Besides Tyr did give those pawns of hers that orb that banishes people from a world. And we haven't seen my little sister that happy for a very long time. You're just lucky that he took it easy on you guys."

"Yes we know about Tyr but she is the official goddess of that world," Urd pointed out.

"Yes she is and is turning that world into something that even a demon wouldn't want. You gods are worse than demons sometimes." Top snapped back causing Urd to blush while Mara giggle seeing her sister being knock off of her high horse.

"Yeah you gods are just too high and mighty," Mara smirked as she likes to see gods and goddess being shown as being to high nose for their own good.

"So what do you two want?" Top spoke up before they could start fighting, "No wait I already know you want me to talk to my brother in allowing gods and demons to interfere with the Suikoden World. Since Dark would just kill your parents if they try to talk to him, so your parents went and sent you two to talk to me right?"

"Yeah that's right," both sisters said.

"Well you two can forget it ever since that day, you gods and demons have been running things like everything is just a toy to be played with. So there's no way that I'm going to help you guys," Top stated.

"But that world only has one god in it," Urd said.

"And the demons from the World of Emptiness have no connections to Hell," Mara added.

"So what's your point?" Top asks, "I know worlds where there aren't any gods or demons that have connections to Hell and those worlds are much better than the ones that you guys run. Celestin was right about creating a world without gods but if it wasn't for your sister stopping him there would have been one." (1)

"Celestin what do you know of him?" Urd asks as it was only a couple of months ago since he had broken free and try to destroy the system.

"Well he's working for my brother now and is under his protection which means that if anything would happen to him than Dark's going to pay a visit to you guys with the play gloves off."

"How about us?" Mara asks.

"Demons, you guys maybe dark but at least you guys are honest about that," Top said, "But the same goes with you guys as well."

"Come on, I know that we gods may act worse than demons sometimes but come on we're not that bad," Urd protested.

"That's coming from someone that erased the memories of her sister," Top said looking at Urd with a glare making her step back, "I might not be as powerful as my brother mind you, but I'm still more powerful than most gods or demons can ever dream of becoming. It has been awhile since I last kill one of you guys. And as for saying that you gods aren't that bad…"

Top walk over to the red pool she kneeled down stirring the water around waiting for something. Both sisters wondered what she was doing when a shadow formed below the water line. They step back as something huge came up from its dark depths. When it broke the surface, they saw that it wasn't a huge beast but was made up of many smaller forms that are clinging together. The figures that form the mass were all young women. Their gaze roamed over the smooth, alabaster and flawless skin. The red eyes and blue hair of the mass of girls caught there attention as well. Their bodies were all shapely with large breast and wide hips their figures were slim making their assets look even bigger than they were. The two sisters were getting an eye full as they weren't wearing anything. Their limbs interlock with each others, hands holding onto to each others body parts, forming a tower of pale skin flesh that jutted out of the red water. The two sisters wondered how many were there as the tower they formed rose ten feet in the air out of the water which means there were others below holding them up.

As one the blue haired women pillar leaned towards Top, "Mistress what can we do for you today?" They all said in the unison.

"I need to show these two how bad gods can be," Top said, "So can you send him up?"

"Of course," they all said in prefect sync again.

The pillar of women seemed to expand as something rose up from within like a toothpaste tube being squeezed out. Rising up from the top of the mass from between four of the women was a brown haired young man being who is being lifted up by the women below, who was then quickly grab from all sides by the women that he pop between them. Like the blue haired women he was naked but thanks to the women hugging onto him covered his privet parts so he was only naked from the waist up as the four women clung to him from his back, front and sides. They clearly enjoy being so close to the man as the other women of the mass all turn their attentions to him looking at him with utter devotion in their eyes. He look ragged as he took in deep long breaths, his chest raising and falling deeply, the women that are closest to him all held on tighter to him. Urd and Mara could tell that if any kind danger would show itself, the women would quickly pull him back within the protective human shell that they form around him.

"Top," Shinji gasped out and than tired himself gasping for breath, trying to recover his strength from his fail body. The women that held him up quickly lowered him down grabbing onto his upper body pressing their faces to his.

"Met Shinji and the Rei's they are the only few survivors of the world where something called Third Impact happen according to the will of one of your fathers counterparts will," Top explain to the two sisters, "Shinji saved the Rei's who are all clones of half-human and half-angel, before they were all killed during the Third Impact but you can see that using the power that he had gained to save them, cost him dearly. Now he must have bodily contact with other bodies. He needs to absorb energy from others just to survive now. He loses his body energy too fast as he had used everything he had just to save the ones that he loves, the only way to keep him alive now is for them to bunch up around him like that letting the energy that they give off when they use certain actions on each other to feed him through bodily contact. (2) The water is a special liquid that I made which allows them to be able to not have to eat or have to go to the bathroom anymore as long as they're in it. I have been trying to find a way to cure him but so far the only thing that I can come up with is to allow him to gather energy like he's been doing, till he stores enough energy inside his body. The rest of the people of their world were all killed by the will of that world's Almighty."

"Wait, why not reset the system that they are connected too," Urd asks.

"I would but we didn't find out that they were still alive until after Dark had killed off every God and Demon of that world along with your parent's counterparts," Top said with the tone of someone talking about the weather making the two sisters uneasy, "Good thing that I have a backup system for them to be download on."

"Wait you have a…," Mara was about to asks when she realize who she was speaking to, "That does makes sense that you guys would have a main system as well."

"Yup and it's even better then the one that you guys use," Top smirked at the pair.

"Shinji!"

They turn around back to the tower to see a tall woman with long orange-reddish hair popping out of the mass of Rei's. She quickly wraps her arms around his neck bringing him close to her body, holding his head gentle to her ample chest. Unlike the Rei's this young woman seen to be much tougher then them with a powerful built body that made her look like an Amazon. She's easily taller then the Rei's standing around six feet and has a much more sexy body then them as well. As she has a larger pair of breast and wider shapelier hips than the Rei's do. She turns her attention over to the one that made her Shinji tire himself out.

"Ms. Top you better have a good reason why you got Shinji out into the open like this! You know that even the smallest action on his part drains him like a gas guzzling SUV," she growled sending a heated glare at her.

"Sorry Asuka, but I was showing Urd the Goddess of the Past of how bad God's can be," Top said to her waving off the redhead heated glare.

The redhead, Asuka turned a heated gaze to Urd. Flames appeared in her eyes as she stare at Urd, "You Goddess and Demon scum stay away from Shinji!" She quickly wiggled back down into the mass of bodies keeping Shinji close to her as the Rei's quickly engulf Shinji back into their mass.

"What's going on?" Urd ask Top wondering why the redhead is acting like that for.

"You see your sister Belldandy of that world had granted the same wish to Shinji as she did to that guy in this world. This caused problems for your father as well as your mother counterparts. They went and ordered all of their forces to get her back at any cost. Your two counterparts rip Shinji and Belldandy apart, also along the way you guys killed Rei and Asuka. Then afterwards forced your sister to forget everything that happened to her with that potion you used on her in this world. When Third Impact happened Shinji, using everything thing he had left in him, launched an attack at Yggradsil trying to bring it down but failed. So he gathered what power he had left in him to bring back Asuka and all of the Rei's back to life gathering them to him, than creating a space-pocket for them to hide in as the Gods and Demons were hunting them. The massive energy attack that Shinji launch did draw my brother's attention to that world. When he saw what the Gods and Demons were doing he went down there and began cleaning up the trash, it was a killing field day. Here is a clip."

The two sister's watch as a screen appeared showing Dark Hat facing a massive army of Gods and Demons charging at him. It was at the front of the gates of Heaven as Dark was aiming for the main computer where all Gods and Demons were connected to. The massive army of Gods and Demons fired energy attacks after energy attacks at Dark which could have easily destroyed a large galaxy. Which Dark walked on through the massive attack like it was nothing more than a gentle spring shower. He stops walking when their attacks began to irritate him as they continue to attack even thou that it's doing nothing to him, he lifted up his hand into the air than made a sweeping motion at the army in front of him. Like some giant broom had suddenly swept down upon the ranks of the army, the entire force of Gods and Demons were all gone as a wall of dark energy swept through them leaving nothing of them behind the attack that was used on them, with them gone Dark walk on through the now open gates of Heaven.

"My brother was very irritated with those guys since he banished them from their world and into the vault," Top said as she turns off the screen.

"The vault?" Urd ask.

"Wait you don't mean…" Mara said putting together what Top meant by that. A look of horror came upon her face.

"Yes big bro went and let Nightmaris deal with them," Top said in a calm voice.

"But how?" Urd said as her skin turn pale.

"Simply you guys might not be able to do anything with the Vault but putting up barriers around it. We Hat's on the other hand can put things in it when we want since it was us not you guys that trapped him in the first place," Top explain.

"Those guys got what was coming to them," Asuka growled.

"Yes they all got what was coming to them," the Rei's agreed with the redhead.

"I must agree," Urd was taken aback as her sister Belldandy suddenly pop out from the mass of Rei's. She look like her sister but she's missing her Goddess markings and she was butt naked something that Urd knows that her sister would never do in public.

"Sis?" Urd asks.

"No I'm her counterpart from that other world. Shinji and the others manage to convince Lord Dark Hat to spare me after, Mistress Top found them from their hiding place," she explains, "And after getting my memories back that were stolen from me, I abandon my Goddess-hood to be with Shinji forever which was forbidden in that other world."

"So does that prove my point?" Top asks turning to Urd.

"Alright you win," Urd said admitting defeat as she saw a burning hatred in her sister's counterpart eyes for what her counterpart did to her, "We'll leave."

"Yeah sorry to bother you," Mara said as she began to walk back out of the building.

"Wait there's something that you two can help me with," Top said to them making them stop, "If you two do what I ask for you guys to do for me. I'll go and have a talk with my brother if you can pay the price that is."

"And that is?" Mara asks as they turn around.

"I think, I found a way to cure Shinji for good but first the Rei's and Asuka must absorb the energy of a Goddess and a Demoness who are connected to Yggradsil as it was because of the powers of Yggradsil being use by Gods and Demons that Shinji is like how he is so he needs a system that's just like it to cure him," Top explain, "Belldandy still has some of her old powers but she doesn't have Yggradsil system connected to her anymore and she can only do so much as there's only one of her and fifty-one of them."

"So you want us to give them our power?" Mara asks as she began thinking of using it to her advantage to get Top on her side.

"Sure no problem," Urd said as she hopes that this will help in getting the Suikoden World back into the systems control.

"Alright than but you should know that it's not in the way you two are thinking," Top said smiling like a fox before she suddenly zoomed forward grabbing each of their arms clamping a bracelet on them, "These bracelets will keep you two from using your powers or calling for help."

"What's going on?" Urd shouted as she tries to break free from the iron grip of Top Hat.

"You'll see but after your done, I will talk to Dark about letting some Gods and Demons into that world after they are done with you," Top flung them into the mass of Rei's who quickly grab hold of them as they try to break free.

"Hey let go!" Mara shouted as she was pulled deeper into the ever moving mass. Hands began tearing off her clothes as she was pulled in deeper.

"Sis get them to stop!" Urd shouted to her as many arms grab hold of her pulling off her clothes and pulling her deeper into the pillar of women.

"Don't worry you'll love it," Belldandy smiled a smile that was anything but friendly as she fill in the hole that was left as her counterpart sister was pulled in deeper into the mass, latching herself onto the front of her snuggling sister. Screams of the Goddess and Demoness rose out of the mass as the women that made up the pillar began to applying their skills on them.

"Asuka call up the girls to take them to one of the guest rooms once you're done with them," Top said to her.

"Don't worry we will but this is going to take awhile," Asuka grinned evilly, "We might have to do it a couple of times before we get enough of their energies into us."

"Take your time," Top said as the pillar of bodies with the two sister's trap inside sank beneath the water. She stood there for a bit looking down as the mass of bodies disappeared as they sank deeper, "So he sent you."

"Yes he did," the figure said that's standing behind her said.

"So what does Dark think about letting Gods and Demons back in once Tyr is taken care of?"

"As long as he or you picks who takes charge of that world is fine with him."

"Good."

"Also is it wise to let your other brother to be Ranma's guide as he tries to get back home?"

"A smart thing no, but wise well, I know my brother well and I still can't understand what he's talking about sometimes but he does manage to get everything done right even if it's a strange way of doing things. So, Ranma should be able to get back home with his help."

"I didn't break out of Hell just for him to be lost in some other world."

"Yes, I know but the deal that you made with my brother is that you work for him and he'll grant you a second chance at life after you die."

"Yes and this time we'll see who is the better fighter this time around." (3)

In another world –

"So when you think we'll run into him?" Aang ask Katara as Sokka steed Appa along as they flew through the air.

"Well, I guess we can look for a village and see if anyone seen him," Katara said as she was sowing up some of the tears in their clothes as Momo catch bugs in his mouth as they flew through the air.

"Or we can go asks those Fire Soldiers picking up of what remains of what looks like a wagon train," Sokka pointed out the burnt out remains of a couple of wagons on a path among some hills as Fire Soldiers are looking over the remains.

"Wow it looks like there was some battle down there," Aang said as he looks down at the wreckage.

"We better get out of here before we're spotted by them," Katara said.

"Good idea," Sokka said as he got Appa to fly up well above the range of any ground attack, "There's a forest up ahead we can hide out over there."

"Yeah and maybe we'll find someone that knows where we can find that bender while were in there," Aang said.

Once they were clear from the sights of the Fire soldiers Appa landed in front of the beginning of the forest hills. Mounting off of Appa they began making their way into the forest. The woods got thicker as they got further in the sunlight shinning through the canapé gave the forest a magical fill to it as they walk through it. The forest show signs of past battles as pieces of Fire troop equipment littered the forest floor.

"Wow it looks like there was some battle in here," Aang said as he saw what wasn't taken from the defeated Fire Nation troops were left to rot out in the open.

"From what, I can tell," Sokka said while looking at what was left of a Fire Nation helmet, "This is about a couple of weeks old."

"There must be a village nearby then for all of these soldiers to try to cross through here," Katara said.

"All we have to do than is to walk around here for a bit before we find it," Aang said as he led Appa through the woods. He noticed that Momo is acting strange as his ears twisted around on his head, "What's the matter Momo?"

A shadow passed overhead of them moving through the trees. Sokka quickly pulls his boomerang out, Aang his staff and Katara got her skin of water ready. "Well now two kids from the Water Tribe and from the markings on his head an Air Bender if I'm not mistaken. Whose better known as the Avatar," a voice that's coming somewhere from the trees.

"Who are you?" Sokka shouted sure of himself as he learn how to fight better.

"Come on, show your self," Katara said as she uncoked her water skin as she learn much in the Northern Water Tribe.

"Yeah we handle worse," Aang said as he ready his staff as they had help in fighting off an invasion force. Appa let out a low growl as Momo leap onto a tree for safety as he wasn't much of a fighter.

"Really now," the voice said with some amusement in his voice, "Then get ready for here, I come."

They look around for any signs of him coming. The forest is quite as it seems like all of the forest animals sensed something was coming. A snap of a branch was the only sign that they heard as the stranger came flying out of the trees moving too fast for them make out. Katara use her water whip as Aang swung his staff creating a wind strike at the speeding figure. The stranger twisted around in midair letting their attacks fly past him, Sokka threw his boomerang at him which he caught throwing it back faster then it came embedding it into the ground in front of Sokka. The figure zipped past them jumping up onto a branch of a tree. They turn to face him but they found that their bodies couldn't move, everything below their necks they could move an inch.

"Rule one is that you don't let your guard down like that. I heard you guys help with the fight against the Fire Nation at the Northern Water Tribe but don't let that go to your head," while they couldn't move they could tell that he was smirking at them, "You are all wondering what happen how come none of you can't move. It's because when, I ran pass you guys, I went and hit your pressure points locking up your body. Pressure points are points on the human body that if someone with the knowledge of where to strike can lock the body of any opponent. You guys are good. I'll give you that, but up against someone like me you guys need more than just luck."

"So who are you?" Aang asks as Appa nudged Sokka knocking him over still stiff as a board.

"I'm the new protector of the nearby village that's around him," the man said as he jumps in front of them so that they could get a good look at him. Standing before them is a raven hair man. He kept his hair is kind of spiky and in the back is a low ponytail. He even has a little antenna like 'spike' pointing upwards. Around his forehead he wore a thin metal band; the two ends curled like a snail's shell where the two ends meet. He wore a white colored sleeveless body armor with yellow outlines that also has on large dome shape shoulder guards. It was smooth and curved so that an attacking weapon would slide off of it. Underneath it he wore a long sleeve red shirt and blue pants, a small blue cape hang from his left side. He carried a weapon a large sword that's strap onto his back.

"Wow," Katara muttered as she felt blood rushing to her face. She never seen someone like him before, his face was handsome and his blue eyes are deep pools. But then she noticed something his face while young look as if he seen things that has change him not physically but from the inside. His eyes reflected something in them but she couldn't tell what.

"So can you unlock us?" Sokka asks as he lay on his side when Appa had knocked him over.

"Sure," the man said as he walk over to them and press a spot on their neck unlocking them, "Well come on kids I lead you to the village. We heard what happen up North and been waiting to see if you guys stop by at the village."

"Wait why should we follow you?" Sokka asks as he pulls out his boomerang out of the ground, "All we could know this is a trap."

"Yeah but then why did, I unlock your bodies if, I could had just carried you guys," he said.

"He has a point there," Katara said.

"Those moves were so cool," Aang said staring at the newcomer, "So what's your name?"

"My name is Ranma Jones at your service," he smiled at them.

In the Fire Nation Army Base –

The ship that carried the exiled prince Zuko and his uncle docked into the port of the base. The base was alive with activity as soldiers from the wagon train that was sent out a few days ago had return in fewer numbers. They came with a tale of a strange warrior that flew on a cloud and could bend lightning to his will. He alone destroyed an entire army unit that was accompanying the wagon train that was delivering badly needed supplies for the out lining army outposts that dotted the countryside. Without the supplies for the outposts the troops that are there won't be able to hold their positions as they are running out of food.

"A Lightning Bender is that even possible?" Zuko ask his uncle as the commander of the army base greeted the two.

"Every tribe has its start from somewhere this could be the future forbearer of a new tribe of benders," Iroh said as he sat down facing with the commander who happened to be one of his old captains of his army.

"Yes that's why we're waiting orders from your brother. This Lightning Bender could be a powerful tool for our nation," the commander said who is a big heavyset man like Zuko's uncle.

"What you mean?" Zuko ask wondering what he meant by that.

"Simple really you see if we somehow manage to get him on our side then the Fire Nation will have the power of not only fire but lightning as well," the commander said.

"But how do you think it would work Xui?" Iroh ask his old sunbonnet, "He's fighting to protect the village that you have been attacking for quite a while now and is unlikely to just switch sides."

"I have thought of that and that's why, I went and sent a message asking that your some of your sister's special unit be sent here to help convince him to switch sides," Xui said turning to Zuko.

"What you mean them?" Zuko growled as he knows what his sister's all female unit is like. They use their female charms to lure enemy troops to lower their guard then they would strike when they saw an opening. His father uses the Viper Unit to sneak into enemy bases to gather information on the defenses before the army would attack. But he knew that his sister's troops also did other things while they were on a mission. The only reason that those psychos were still around was that his father made the army commanders to look the other way for his daughter's troops. They did things that sicken him, to get people to give valuable information out of them by any means.

"I must agree with my nephew," Iroh said, "They might be able to get people to talk but how do you suppose that they'll be able to go and convince this Lightning Bender to his change sides?"

"Yes I know that they are well known for their cruelty," Xui said, "But they also more then once help change the minds of more then one mind about which side they should be on."

"Yes but their methods of doing so…" Iroh began to say, "If this Lightning Bender is anything like what I have picture him to be then using women to get him to change sides won't work on someone like him."

"Yes I have already thought of that but the women that Princess Zula has in her unit are some of the most lovely, female soldiers that have come out of our training camps," Xui said, "And aren't you reading into this too much?"

"Well unlike you I have been married before and just because a woman is good looking doesn't mean that a man would just let her get close to him. Besides there are some men out there that don't just chase after any pretty young thing that happens to come along," Iroh said.

"And you know that all too well don't you," Xui smiled knowing Irohs thing of looking at pretty young women.

"Same thing goes for you," Iroh said back as Xui shares the same thing for him as well.

"Once word reaches out that there's a Lightning Bender then it be only a matter of time before the Avatar comes looking for him," Zuko said.

"Yes but you still haven't fully recovered from the last battle Zuko. While we wait for reinforcements to come you should rest your body as well as your mind my nephew," Iroh said.

"He's right you should rest up you'll be no good to us in your weaken state. Take this time to train your body to what's coming up ahead. This Lightning Bender destroyed one of my best units without any help from any of those villagers that have been raiding the supply bases. I have already sent messages to the out posts for all troops to fall back to the base there's no way that they'll be able to hold out for without any new supplies," Xui informed them.

"Good I see that you learn some things while you were severing under me," Iroh said.

"Yes, I did," Xui said, "The reinforcements should start to arrive in about three weeks give or take since so many ships were damage during the invasion."

"I'll take my leave," Zoku said leaving the two older men, "I have training to do."

"Zuko remember that unlike the other elements, Lightning can affect metal and travel at speeds that will strike before an eye can blink. There's no defense against the power of Lightning that we have at our disposal so take care in what kind of training that you'll be doing," Iroh said.

"I'll keep that in mind," Zuko said as he left.

Xui waited for him to leave before he spoke to his old commander "Iroh you do know that once your niece gets here I won't be able to help you as your brother won't take you interfering with the invasion kindly."

"Yes, I know that," Iroh signed, "But I'm ready to face what he has plan for me."
"He'll be sending princess Zula to deal with you," Xui said, "Her Fire bending skills are the strongest that I have ever seen the only thing that you have going for you is that you have more fighting experience then she does and also all of that power she has gone to her head like your brother went through when he became the ruler of our nation."

"That's why, I stayed with Zuko when he was banished to help guide him to become a better man then his father. I saw that in him when he stood up against that general with his plan that would have killed all of those new recruits. That's why I'm going to do everything in my power to help him become the next ruler of the Fire Nation." Zuko who had listened in, pressing his ear to the door vowed to live up to what his uncle is trying to help him do. By surpassing both his father and his sister.

On the surrounding hillside miles away from the army base –

"So this is the village that you protect?" Aang asks as he and the others walk into the village.

"You must have been working hard to protect it from the Fire Troops," Katara said as she look around the village that rested on the large hillside they had came up of.

"So where's the rest of your people that help you beat that wagon train?" Sokka asks as Ranma told them about how the remains of the wreckage that they spotted was his doing.

"Well actually…" Ranma began but was cut off as a horde of young women suddenly came out of nowhere sweeping Ranma away from Aang's group before he could protest.

"What just happen?" Sokka asks as he stared at the mob of young women that drag Ranma away as they tried to give him some homemade lunches.

"It looks like he's very popular with the women here," Katara said as she turn to Aang who was trying to stop Appa from following the horde as he likes the smell that was coming from the food that they'll carrying.

"Hold it you can't take their food from them," Aang shouted as he try to stop the ten-ton buffalo from stealing the women's lunches that they made.

"So you're the Avatar," an old man said as he walks up to them, "I see that you already met Ranma. Welcome to our village, I'm Turk the Chief around here."

"Hi, I'm Aang," Aang greeted him, "This is Katara and her brother Sokka. This is Appa and that little fellow is Momo."

"I see that you have heard tales of a Bender that can fly around on a cloud right?" Turk asks.

"Yeah is the Bender an Air Bender like me?" Aang asks hoping that he wasn't the last.

"No he isn't," Turk said seeing Aang's face falling, "He's a Lightning Bender. The first of his kind."

"What a Lightning Bender?" Sokka shouted.

"Yes, I have seen it first hand he can command the power of Lightning he alone fought off one attack after another driving the Fire Nation soldiers back each time. That cloud he rides is something that he learned to do by controlling the thunder clouds," Turk said.

"Aang do you know what this means?" Katara said to him, "You'll be able to learn how to control Lightning once we get him to teach you."

"And, I'll be able to learn how to fly on a cloud!" Aang shouted out as he began thinking of the fun that he'll be able to have once he learns how to make a cloud to ride on.

"So who is this Lightning Bender?" Sokka asks.

"He's right over there," Turk said as he pointed to the mass of young women that are surrounding Ranma.

"Wait you mean that Ranma is the Lightning Bender?" Katara asks as she stared at the older man that was trying to get the women that are around him to leave him alone.

"Yes many of the young men of the village are complaining of how he's getting all of the unmarried young women to fall heads over heels for him," Turk gave out a good laugh, "Once they are done with him you'll be able to talk with Ranma about teaching you about bending Lightning."

"Well guys it looks like we'll be here for awhile," Aang said as they watch as Ranma tries to get the young women to leave him alone and failing badly.

Author's Notes

1 – See Oh My Goddess the Movie.

2 – Shinji feeds of the energy that they give off like that of a sex demon but doesn't interact with them because it would drain him of too much energy if he does.

3 – Can anyone guess who he is?
