Chaos in China: Staring Genma in the face [Episode 103967]

by Calum J. 'doghead13' Wallace

Xian Pu didn't like this situation one little bit.
What was supposed to be a routine recon patrol was rapidly going to Hell in a handbasket. For starters, the Saotome clanners who were lurking around near Juusenkyo were that particular clan's Heir, some strange-looking guy and probably the most notorious badass ever to come crawling out of the bowels of Clan Saotome, to whit one Genma Saotome.
And, to put the icing on the cake, Genma was presently aiming a .50 calibre Desert Eagle down the sights of her Kalashnikov.
This put her in an awkward situation to say the least. You didn't get to be the youth tournament champion of Joketsuzo by being stupid, and Xian Pu had no illusion as to her ability to survive if Genma, the bad old werebear's son and whoever their mate was attacked.
She stood up, keeping her Kalasher shouldered, and answered in heavily accented Japanese.
"I is thinking you should be aware I too load Wolfsbane munitions." she told him.
"Stick with Mandarin." Genma advised. "We're all fluent."
"So," Ranma commented. "Three Amazons. What a fuckin' wonderful way ta start th' day." He lit his cigarette. "Lose th' guns, th' lotta ya. Unless yer really wantin' me ta hurt ya."
Xian glowered back at him. "Not likely, outsider." she snarled. "A girl's got to keep herself decent."
Ranma laughed loudly round his cigarette. "Decent? BWAHAHA! That's a good 'un."

Later, all three Amazons swore blind they had heard a sonic boom when he moved.

His target was probably the only thing he could have grabbed that would prevent any shooting; the clip release on Xian Pu's rifle. Once he'd done moving he was back where he'd started with his knife in one hand, an AK47 clip in the other and a curious smirk on his face. "Strange as it may fuckin' seem," he told her, "We don't want no trouble. I'll give ya this back when we're done talkin', OK?"
Xian Pu, Wu Chii and Fire glanced at each other, then Xian lowered her gun.
"Okay." she said. "You've convinced me."
Genma sighed releivedly and holstered his pistol, safing it as he went. Ranma grinned and slotted his knife back into it's sheath, which was strapped to the underside of his bike's seat.
"Well, so how come yer beardin' us in our lair so as ta speak?" Genma asked the trio of Joketsuzoku.
"We were ordered to observe you and see if we could ascertain what you're looking for." she told him. "A... friend mistook you for a man named Yoshikaze Saotome."
Genma chuckled. "Me? Nah, name's Genma. This is me son Ranma, an' this is a pal of ours who usually answers ta Logan."
"Admittedly Dad did buy that bike offa that Yoshikaze fucktard a few days back after his old bike got fucked up by th' pigs." Ranma commented, jerking his thumb at Genma's ride. "Anyway, we're here fer a final stopover before we head back home ta Tokyo. Clan tradition or some shite like that. Logan's just taggin' along because... well, I dunno why he's taggin' along. Hey Logan, why are ya taggin' along anyway?"
Logan snorted casually.
"Got a feelin' that hangin' around with you two is good fer me health."

Meanwhile...
