Blinded Stars
Disclaimer: I don't own Ranma ½ or Sailor Moon. They belong to their respected creator/ owners and I not making a cent of this. So keep the layers in their cages. We all know the rest….
It's been a while so if you need a refresher go back and read the previous chapters. This chapter hasn't been edited by anyone so I'll need some one to help me in that regard since I can get a hold of my previous editor.
Chapter 5: A Threat
-Previous ending-
"Tatsuki… I can take care of them from here. You can tend to are guests and keep them from deciding to find them. Since they are nude right now, it would really be disapproving for them to be seen like this." Yasu said grabbing the clothing from Kira and letting her remove the towels and slip on a pair of underwear.
"That's true. Fine, I will see you three in a little bit then." Tatsuki replied taking a look at the outfits in Yasu arms before turning to Ranma. "Now I know that this my be a bit new for you Ranma but your going to have to eat at a lot slower and try not to show off either.
"Don't worry Mom. I'll make sure Ranma's an angel." Kira said running over to Ranma and warping her arm around her shoulder.
"Of course," Tatsuki replied and then left the room.
-Previous ending, end-
Tatsuki was looking across the dance hall were many guesses stood before and some not looking humanoid at all. She could sense the tension in the air as they all steadily grew silent when they realized her presence amongst them. Turning her gaze to her right and down another passage that lead to the hall she found others marching towards her. She could feel Zeb's presence behind the one of the walls near her. He was of course listening to all that was being said and would come out when he felt it was right. She waited a few more seconds for everyone to have gathered and find a place to stand.
"I know half of you have come for one reason and the other half for another. So I'm going to make it short and sweet so that we can get right to the matter at hand." Tatsuki announced holding herself in a regal mater. "The one's that have come to great my daughter will be a bit disappointed to hear that she didn't come to stay that long. She is still very much alive in the physical world and will be returning once she and Ranma are ready to return. Those how have shown up because of Ranma, be at ease. She's a bit different but she will not harm you. She does however pose my families power."
"You're saying that someone from the physical spirit pool has gained your families abilities! Then all the Family lines might have been compromise!" Came from someone in the crowd.
"We should be on full alert! It might be the sign of the awakening of the 'Judges'!" Another said in a loud voice so everyone could hear him.
"That's non-sense!" Zeb shouted from a balcony above everyone. "If the dreaded 'Judges would awaken we would already see the reawakening of the 'forbidden one' as well."
"How would you know that the 'forbidden one' isn't already awake?" the same person asked.
"Because I was there when it was silenced and the judges went to sleep." Zeb replied his face rock hard with the expression determination. "Now enough of this foolish talk about the ancients; I believe my sister had more to say about where our little Ranma came from."
"Well yes. Right now my sister, Yasu, is attending to them both. As to explain why Ranma has the families power is a little long but must be shared." Tatsuki said as the crowd refocused their attention on her.
"I just would like one strait answer sis." Zeb said form his position above them. "Does she or does she not have a Crystalist."
"Zeb… she does…. possess one." Tatsuki replied looking Zeb dead in the eye.
"So the count just went to three." Zeb said standing up from leaning over the ledge. "I guess I should ask if her birthday is the same."
"Thanks Zeb." Tatsuki said with a smile.
"Just explain…" Was Zeb's reply.
-Back to the twins-
"So Ranma how does this look." Kira asked as she twirled around in one of the many dresses now on top of the bed. Ranma was still in just underwear and refused to put on any of them.
"It's too glittery and it makes the hips look huge." Ranma replied as she began to look through the dresser and closet.
"Found anything you like?" Yasu asked amused by the way Ranma tossed everything out of her way and on to the bed.
"Ranma are you sure you don't want to try the outfit that I've got in mind for you?" Kira asked also seeing several dresses that see needed to try on.
"All I see are dresses! Don't you have any pants?" Ranma asked turning around to the other two.
"Well Ranma you can try on the outfit that I think you'll look great in." Kira replied.
"Is it another dress?" Ranma asked sighing in submission.
"Well I'll let you answer that one after you try it on." Kira replied
"Fine but it better fit right and not be a dress." Ranma said letting the others sweep in around her.
"Don't worry if you don't like this then I'm not a girl." Was Kira's reply and she opened a false wall next to the dresser and began to pull things out. Ranma was getting the feeling that something was wrong here and Yasu wasn't going to object at all.
"How come I have to stand still?" Ranma asked as a blind fold was rapped around her head.
"Well it's easy for us to put everything in place on you." Yasu replied with her head next to Ranma's ear right ear. After some time of Kira and Yasu whispering and comparing this from what Ranma could gather; they began to slip things on and off her. "How about this color or this texture" was the common asked question between the two. As time went on and the occasional "that works perfectly". After fifteen minutes Ranma decided that she would see what they were actually putting on her. She began to raise her hand to remove the blind fold but a hand grasped her arm before it got to her head.
"Not yet Ran-Chan" called Kira as she head Ranma's arm.
"Ok dear it's your choice. Color one or two?" Yasu asked.
"One of course." Kira immediately answered.
"Umm can I at least see what one is?" Ranma asked.
"After were done of course." Kira replied to Ranma's question as she snapped something around her wrists. It wasn't heavy or anything. It was thin and small and felt like metal. The item hung loosely from her wrist and was a bit cold against her skin but other then that it caused no real discomfort. Several more items were warped around her body and did take note that something was placed on her head.
"Ok Ran-Chan. Step over here and I'll remove the blind fold." Kira said leading Ranma in front of a large mirror. Once the blind fold was removed Ranma was afraid to open her eye. She quickly took in how the clothing felt on her as she stood there, eye shut. It was very light and cloth did seem to run down her legs. Taking a deep breath Ranma opened her eyes and looked into the mirror in front of her. Her image stared back at her with a surprised expression written on her face. Her body wasn't adorned in a dress like she thought it was going to be. It was however light pink and with gold every so often. The material was light and was very similar to that of the bedding but slightly thicker. Besides the crown that she had on her head; the only pieces of jewelry was the thin bracelet, a brooch that rested at the front of the shirt, and a pair of golden earrings that had the symbol of a dragon's head on them. She gazed down at her self to give to complete look over. The top was sleeveless and the low cut displayed how well she was built. The top then ran into a mini skirt that overlapped on top of a pair of pants that stopped several inches above her ankle. All the edges were golden with a repeating pattern of a dragon in dark red that lay on top of it. Several trails of cloth streamed down her back from her shoulders to about her knees in length.
"So how do you like it?" Kira asked coming up behind her in a dress that was in similar style and seemed to pair up well to the out fit Ranma was now wearing. She also displayed a crown on her head as well as other pieces of jewelry.
"It's very pink…. But way better then wearing any dress…." Ranma replied slipping on the sandals that were set next to her. Yasu chuckled a little when she heard Ranma's response.
"Well you're just lucky that something other then dresses do exist for girls." Yasu said motioning the two to come with her.
"So what's the big event that's got everyone up and alarmed?" Kira asked as the two followed Yasu out into the hall.
"Well The Fact that Ranma is here and has the same powers as we do." Yasu replied taking a hand of each and placing them on within each others. "Plus various other things that deal with the bond that you share with each other and the rest of the family."
"So the commotion is all about us…." Ranma said not liking the idea that she was in the spot light once again and was in the middle of a situation that she really didn't understand all to well.
"We should get going. Tatsuki is wait for us, as is every one else that here." Yasu said beginning to lead them down the hall to the proper chamber.
Ranma for her part was fighting the urge to just turn and run away form this place. She could feel that something was going to happen that would affect her in the deepest way. As they neared there destination the feeling only grew more potent and this caused Ranma to become wary inside. She quickly noted that as they move to their destination that her 'connection', or rather the presents of the Tatsuki's power grew considerably. Every inch of her body was being saturated with it and was still being filled with more. Kira seemed to have noticed some how that Ranma wasn't felling all too good about her situation. She having heard only half of Ranma's life journey could kind of understand that she didn't have much of a choice to what was going to happen. Kira her self was a bit curious as to why her own energy levels were on the rise. For her this wouldn't be the first time this happened but her powers didn't come back to even a forth of its true power until at least a year had passed since she had died. Not only that but she could feel some other form of energy also begin to manifest its self within her. The felling she got from it was that of worry and agitation. But she wasn't either of those this at the moment. She didn't feel worried at all, yet she was experiencing it anyway. Kira turned her gaze to Ranma's face and found that is looked calm and relaxed. Ranma in turn took note of this and quickly gave a smile before turning her attention back to their heading. When Ranma smiled at her Kira felt that slight senses of panic and greater worry. Kira gave a few moments of thought on this before she opened her mouth to say something but was cut off by Yasu.
"We're here!" Yasu said turning to them. They where currently standing behind curtains that obviously led to the place.
On the other side of the curtain they could hear Tatsuki talking about something to the group that was in front of her. They then heard a male voice shot out "Why not let them see for them selves. That our look-a-like is the real deal since Yasu is ready with them."
Kira recognized the voice and quickly told Ranma that uncle Zeb was actually here and that she couldn't wait to show Ranma to him. Ranma just wasn't sure that she wanted to meet any one else at the moment. All she wanted was some time alone with her self. She figured that Kira would find her and bring her back if she bolted so she stood in place. Kira turned to Ranma with a concerned look on her face that just asked 'what wrong?'. Kira could feel the sense of panic spread throughout Ranma's body. She took hold of both of Ranma's hands and placed them together between hers. Kira closed her eyes and began to focus on Ranma. Ranma just stared at her counterpart as she did so. Suddenly Ranma felt a soothing flow of Tatsuki's energy enter her. The energy had a slight different feel though. Very similar to Tatsuki's but had its own unique signature. Ranma then unleashed her senses further. She quickly picked up four energy signatures that were about the same as Tatsuki's, how was standing on the other side of the curtain. Two were right next to her and another was a bit higher up of the ground in front of them. The last one was in the some other part of the palace of to her right. Ranma could guess that the powers belonged to Kira, 'her uncle, 'her aunt', and some one that she didn't hear about yet. In the room on the other side of the curtain Ranma could feel the many auras of the crowd. Some didn't feel all too friendly.
"Alright you two; its show time." Yasu said placing a hand on them and led them in front of the crowd.
-To the shrine-
"So Ami what do you think they meant when that guy, Sen, was talking too these two." Luna asked after she finally got the scouts two tell her what had happened.
"Well from what I can gather they knew each other and had some bad contact with one another. Most likely they are enemies." Ami replied, "But as to what he meant. I wouldn't really know."
"So your classmate is an enemy of a powerful guy and has a twin that she shares power with. Some how that doesn't sound right or add up." Artemis said looking over the twins that rested on the floor.
"I agree. Their bodies are giving of a good amount of energy at them moment." Rei commented also sparing a glance at the two.
"Ami you've been scanning then for a while now. That does your little computer say about them?" Minako asked directing everyone attention back to Ami.
'sigh' "well, let me bring up what its found." Ami replied as they all gathered around her to look at the screen. "I been running a search on where their power could be coming form and…."
"Wow that number isn't even realistic is it?" Haruka said as she read the number of possible sources.
"Ok so that won't work…." Minako said.
"So what would be the closest one, just out of curiosity?" Pluto asked as she suddenly appeared next two them.
"Mrs. Meioh! Do you know anything about this?" Artemis asked.
"Well, the closest possible origin for their power is…. Wow" Ami replied to Meioh question.
"Wow isn't very descriptive." Michiru replied.
"Hold on I have to check something first. I might know way their count for their possible source is so high and only get bigger." Ami side as she began to type fast on the computer. Everyone waited patiently for Ami to compile the results; which took about 15 minutes to do. While that was happening the others checked up on the twins and got more snacks.
"Wow…. They got a large battery." Ami said as she pulled up the final screen she was looking at.
"What did you find?" everyone asked as rushing next to her to look at the small screen.
"Well the energy source is one that I wouldn't have thought it to be. But it make sense now with its' high count of possible source." Ami said before continuing. "The most likely source for their power is the nearest fusion reactor. Their energy signatures are 98 in similarity and there is really no difference in the wave each of them gives off."
"Fusion reactor?" Usagi asked. "Like an unclear power plant?"
"No that's fission, Usagi" Setsuna replied. "What Ami is saying is that the sun is the source of their powers and that means that all the stars that gave of close enough waves were possible sources of their power.
"So they draw their power from the sun. Then do we know where the bad guy gets his power?" Rei asked sure that she knew the answer to it before hand. She received several no's and shacking of the others heads.
"So are you girls going to spill the beans on how these two are?" Michiru asked openly to everyone.
"Oh that's my queue to leave!" Setsuna said before vanishing into nothingness.
"That's just great…." Makoto and Michiru said a second later.
-Hmmm… haven't seen this place before. Dark Citadel-
Sen looked across the place he had at one time called home. They were the runes of his old home that now seemed to be as nonexistent in their being. They seemed to disappear as he stud there watching from a distance. He slowly walked up to the main gate that he himself had tore apart with his bear hands all that long ago. Marlyn appeared slightly behind him and carried a satisfied look upon her face. San just ignored her as he gave a solid kick to part of the paved ground that was jetting up from the rode. The piece shattered on impacted and its remains flew everywhere.
"Ser?" Marlyn asked question what he was doing here.
"The barrier is gone…. But it's still here I can fell it." Sen said as he walked up the collapsed entrance.
"What do you mean? The crystalist has been destroyed for ages now." Marlyn replied unsure of Sen's words.
"No that isn't the presence I felt. Is it stronger then that which was it shielding it?" Sen said to himself; as he tossed a large door out of his way. "It's faint but I've felt this power before. It's very old and very powerful. Similar to that of the man I saw when he unlocked my true power."
"What do you mean?" Marlyn asked walking up to Sen and peeking inside.
"Leave this place. I'll be back shortly." Sen commanded as he casually strolled inside of the entrance. "I don't need to kill my own fodder by anyone being here."
"Humph! Fine then!" Marlyn replied before she faded into a dark cloud of smoke and disappeared from view.
"Well, it's just you and me father!" Sen yelled as he began to charge into the darkness.
-Sylow's hall-
"Ry. How dare you even come to me and give demands. I'll kill you for such nonsense." Said a large male figure sitting on a stone chair in the middle of a large room; he wore silver plate armor with many arcane markings that pulsed a spectrum of colors. A large heavy sword sat beside him. Its blade razor sharp and serrated. The man's hair was red, cut short, and pulled back. On his face were several marks that displayed his rank in a now extinct army.
"You've blinded your self to my strength and assumed that you were still the stronger." Ry Said as he stood before the other man. "You don't even realize that Sen has awakened! Do you!" Ry added as he wiped some blood from his brow from his previous encounter.
"From the looks of things it's you how are the weaker and injured on top of that. I don't know who did that to you; but Sen is dead and not coming back. Or did you forget that it was I who finished him off after his father dealt with him." The chaired figure said lifting a large sword and standing up.
"Sylow, you're an old relic from a dead time. It's only the magic of your armor that keeps you bound to the living!" Ry shouted as he drew forth a set of knives in one hand and placed a mask on with the other.
"This shouldn't take very long." Sylow Said as he got in a combat stance.
"Your right, I'll take you out with one hit!" Ry shouted in replay as he charged strait at Sylow. As he got in strike range Ry summoned his vacuum barrier around him and slashed at Sylow's Sword. Deflecting the sword Ry tackled Sylow causing his barrier to collide with Sylow's armor. A loud scream filled the room for several seconds as Ry's vacuum ate right through Sylow.
"Your soul is mine!" Ry yelled as he caste a spell with his still free had and the room became bright. Five minutes later a completely healed Ry stood in on the remains of the armor. "Now I'm strong enough to kill you and your little army of ill dressed girls, Princes!" Ry yelled at the top of his lungs as he broke into a fit of laughter.
-Tatsuki's palace-
"Now before any of you go and say anything; I'll like to mention that I will guard both of them from you. So let's keep this nice." Zeb said as Yasu brought the twins in front of the crowd. Quickly taking in the room; Ranma was surprised by the number of beings she stood before. But something else catches her eye that hung from the ceiling. It glowed and pulsated with her heartbeat as she stood their looking at it. From the ceiling hung a huge red crystal that seemed to reflect her ki signature. In side the crystal she could just see an object that was thin and long but no other details besides that. Ranma's attention way shaken from the object as Kira pulled her towards Tatsuki. In the back round Ranma could here the murmur of the crowd as they stared at her. Ranma's Danger sense was starting to pick up possible hostilities within the group. Tatsuki placed her hands on each of Kira's and Ranma's shoulders opposite each other and pulled them so that they were only inches away. Leaning a little, Tatsuki whispered something into their ears. Kira's face light up; but Ranma Had failed to hear what had been said and was about to ask for her to repeat it but some one had shouted out of the crowd something that drew Tatsuki's attention from them.
"We see that they look the same but the question remains… Are they the same spirit, blood, or some form of trickery that has been sent to destroy our realm?" some one shouted from the crowd. He was middle age looking had several shiny pieces of jewelry plainly showing. "As Lord of the Sa' Cho family I demand a inquisition on the matter right now. I want proof that this is a legit and bound member to your family's oath."
"Even though we have yet told her of the pledge that our family is held to, she is indeed bound by its words." Zeb said in a firm tone. "She already holds her own Crystalist in her heart and has begun to feel her own connection."
"That doesn't prove much! All that says is that she had taken hold of power." The Man from before said. "If she can get one of great seals to resonate with her own spiritual energy then I can say that it is proof enough."
"The seals are forbidden to go near. They reek of tainted souls and demons." Yasu declared as she took a position in front of Ranma.
"True but only the seals are set to open for anyone that belongs to the oath. They will only resonate if she is truly bound." The Man shot back.
"I'm tired of proving my self to everyone! You want to see what I'm can do them look at what I've done. I've beat every challenge thrown my way. I even defeated Saffron on Phoenix Mountain. You have the nerve to question my honor when all you have to do is find out what I have done in the name of honor by looking into my past. I'm sure that you have that ability if you can boldly demand things of others." Ranma yelled cutting off everyone. She was getting tired of listening to this guy question her intentions. "I have nothing to prove to someone like you!"
"How dare you even begin to talk to me as such! I could careless what mortal you have dealt with. Your abilities mean noting to me." The man said in a load and firm tone that was saturated with authority.
"You're blind if you ignore the fact that his girl has bested a demi-god in the physical world." Zeb replied in a calm tone.
"I don't care. The realms are different. She had no true strength here!" the man shot back with venom.
"You will be the first to realize my strength!" Ranma yelled as she let her aura begin to radiate around her.
"Showing of one's spiritual energy doesn't qualify as strength, but a point in which you are weak." The man stated in a mater of fact way.
Ranma had about it with this guy and his attitude so she dug deep within her self and unleashed are aura at full power. Her aura turned into blue flames that stretched out several yards from her body. "Is this enough power for you to understand that I'm not a push over?!" Ranma yelled ready to try to go and push her ki even higher still, even though she was already at her max. Tatsuki, Yasu, and Kira all took several steps back from Ranma so they wouldn't get in Ranma's aura.
"That is absolutely within power range needed for combat against a god of any kind." Zeb said as took note that his power was only about three times as mush.
"Even so, she still isn't strong enough to take on any of us here except for the children back at home." he said with a amused look on this face that said that he didn't even care that Ranma's power had just put everyone else on edge in the crowd.
"That's just her own strength and not even the strength that she'll gain by having use of her mystic powers that will manifest in short time. I don't know how strong she'll get but I can say that she'll be at lest twice as strong when they do." Zeb said leaping down from the balcony and landing next to Ranma. He walked up to Ranma unaffected by her aura and placed his hand on her shoulder. He then whispered "you've proven your point… he's all talk now. Kira is waiting for you." His voice was soft and gentle as he spoke. Zeb watched as Ranma's aura faded and her muscles relaxed to their normal levels. On queue Kira rushed up to Ranma with a worried look on her face grabbed one of her hands.
"So I do assure you that even if her power reaches levels that we are selves can't handle then we'll enforce one of the seals as it was agreed upon." Yasu said as she stood next to Zeb.
"Your father would not have taken such a risk as you boldly take now." Said the man once more. "And I knew your father well."
"It doesn't mater how well you knew him or not. What does mater is that he would make the same decision that we are making now by putting are family first and that includes little Ranma here" Zeb said firm with his hand still resting on Ranma's shoulder. Ranma didn't like being called little but looking at the difference in size between her and Zeb, she could say in all honestly that she is considered small. With a difference of at lest four feet; Ranma felt dwarf in stature next to him.
"Fine! But know this if she even leaves your grounds then her safety is gone and I'll do to her as a see fit; which would be her termination at the moment." The man said with several nods coming from several others.
"Sa' Cho I think that your presence has begun to leave a bitter taste in my mouth and I wouldn't want for your name to begin to feel the stain that your infringement on both of our honors has started." Tatsuki said while she placed herself in front of both Ranma and Kira. "And if you even dare to lay a figure on my children or my any other member of my family I'll have but no choice in what I'll have to do."
"I second that along with Yasu I'm sure." Zeb said as Yasu moved to the other side of the twins and resting her hand on Kira's shoulder. With that the man left and he was followed by several others.
"You two better stay within are boundaries." Zeb said to the twins as they watched Sa'Cho leave with several others.
"My lady Tatsuki, If I may I would like to hold a private conference with you and your brother." Said an old looking man who wore what looked to be old samurai style clothing. "Also it might interest some others who wish to join us in a more respectful conversation.
"That would be fine, but let us meet else where. How about the library?" Tatsuki offered as she turned here gaze to the man. Who nodded in agreement before he turned and left the room. The rest of the guests accompanied him as they began their march to the library. Ranma was a bit steamed that wherever he…she went, no one even gave a dam about her abilities. In fact the only one that really seamed to care about her strength where those out to kill, marry, or challenge her. This in its self was a bit perplexing to Ranma and yet still there was the eerie feeling of that lingered within her. Looking back up to the red crystal that hung from the ceiling and the object that laid deep within its body she could again feel the shard that now sat in her breast begin to pulsate in rhythm with the beating of her heart. A warmth spread through her body as she stood there memorized by the large crystal. Tatsuki lowered her head next to Kira's and whispered "It's just like the first time you looked into the thing. Go to your sister, I have a feeling that you two are going to awake back up shortly."
"Wha? How?" Kira asked as she displayed a questioning look that was left unanswered as she was pushed up to Ranma's side. Suddenly there was a bright flash and they were gone.
"Sister why did you send them back? I was just starting to have some fun with them." Yasu asked a bit confused by the sudden action.
"Yes, if I recall you wanted them to stay here for a while before you sent them back." Zeb said right before his eyes light up. "Wait you let the connection to there bodies affect this plan's time. How did you do that without us knowing?"
"I used Ranma's wounds to let my own powers copy a portion of her ability to concentrate and a supplemental light drain from my self I was able to shield them without anyone knowing. So I do hope Ranma will forgive my intrusion but it was to protect her." Tatsuki replied before switching the topic. "We should head to the library to continue the discussion on Ranma and how she will affect every one."
"I guess I should send them a little surprise for when they wake up" Yasu said as she gave I wave of her hand and two small shiny pink orbs appeared in her hand.
"I think the will be fighting over it." He side with a grin before disappearing dawn the corridor in seconds.
-The shrine-
"What do you mean? Why are they the target of this guy?" Rei shouted with frustration.
"It's only a hypothesis. We can only speculate the reasons for his and their actions at the moment." Ami replied.
"Hmmm…." Was heard coming from where the two girls lay on the floor. Everyone looked over to see them both let off another moan before they sat up and rubbed their eyes.
"Man that felt like a dream but it wasn't, was it sis." Kira said as she opened her eyes and saw Ranma and behind her everyone else that was in the room.
"My body got to rest but I didn't get much time to relax back at the castle…." Ranma replied not noticing the others yet. Lifting her hand to scratch her head she found that it held a small pink shiny ball. Kira quickly noticed that there was one in her hand as well.
"Well we have a bit to discuss with you two." Rei said jumping two her feet and walking over to them. Ranma's head spun around too identify the source of the voice. She quickly spotted its owner and then saw everyone else in the room behind her.
"Man this is why I hate loosing consciousness!" Ranma moaned. Looking down Ranma noted that the clothing she was currently wearing was slightly tattered now. "Before we start with the million questions…. What is this?" Ranma asked Kira while holding the pink sphere above her head. Instantly the ball glowed brightly as magical strands of energy encircled Ranma. Several seconds later everyone stared in awe at Ranma. Kira stood in shook as Ranma felt more embarrass then ever before. She stood there in what appeared to be a pink see through nightgown that stopped at her knees. Under it, Ranma was bear naked. Around her neck sat a small chain that held a small adornment with the sun's symbol on its surface.
"Oh wow! So that's what was inside it…." Kira said also blushing as she played with the sphere in her hands. "I do hope they gave us more clothing then that to wear…."
"Just tell me how to change back! I rather be wearing a pink mini skirt then this!" Ranma shouted in frantic state as she hid behind Kira.
"Ok ok ok …. But first calm down. Right now I don't know what else there is to change into but you can have it slip you into another set of clothing by focusing your thoughts on what you want." Kira replied as she touched the adornment that hung from Ranma's neck.
"What's going on?" Rei asked.
"Please something different and decent." Ranma said as she did what her sis said to do. Again magical strands of energy flooded around her. When they vanished several seconds latter Ranma stood there now adorned with the out fit that Kira had her where back at the castle. "I wanted pants!"
"Well if your going to get all dressed up I guess I should as well." Kira said lifting the sphere above her head. Strands of energy flooded over her only to reveal seconds later her in a light Sunday dress. "Much better!"
"Ok….." Ranma said as she gave herself a quick look over and then turn her attention back to the scouts. "I guess there's no getting out of an explanation is there?"
"No we won't let you of the hook that easily" Minako said as she leaned against the wall.
"Ya who are you exactly. You're not any normal pair of twins." Haruka asked as she looked between the two.
"Do I have to tell them everything? Or are we just going to answer questions?" Ranma asked Kira as they both sat at the table.
"Well let's answer their questions and if it would be easier to tell them the full story then we'll give them it. Besides I've still haven't heard the rest of what happened to you since you left off at the cursed springs." Kira replied.
"Well lots of things, manly trouble…. Stupid panda!" Ranma said lowering her shoulders. "I hope that craziness stays away and doesn't follow me."
OK it's been a long time … I just want to know if any of you have any good ideas that I might want to use. I've come to a point that I need another character. This character will be filling the role of Alchem, who is the cousin of our twins and Yasu's son. I already have his personality picked out all I need is what his abilities are. (Being perverted is not discouraged in relation to this character.)
