"If it doesn't work, we can always step up the punishment." Nabiki shrugged her shoulders.
"Huh? What do you mean?" The pig-tailed martial artist inquired.
"Well, once the curse is applied you can always find a way to lock it." The mercenary grinned roughly. "If that doesn't work, you can play around with his or rather her body and make it more sensitive towards sexual advancements. I imagine being groped and hit on would do something to him after all."
The two shared a wry laugh at the thought of others giving Kuno some of his own behavior for once. "Alright, I know for a fact that the old ghoul has some girl water." Ranma said darkly.
"Master?" The Ice Queen shrank back a little under his gaze.
"Nothin' to worry about, Nabs." The boy assured her with a dismissive wave of his hand. "It's just the old ghoul showed it to me when I was gonna take off and find a cure." He paused for a second to clench his jaw tightly. "She told me that if I did get myself cured, she'd just curse me again. Apparently, I'm not allowed any happiness unless I'm under the control of those #$%@ing Amazons." He finished in a deadly hiss of breath.
"Shampoo owes me a big favor." Nabiki said quietly, averting her eyes from her Master's face. Idly, she began to finger the cameo of her choker. "I'm pretty sure that I can get a single dose from her without any problems."
Ranma thought about it for a second before nodding his head. "Do it."
"If I get it today, when do you want to do... it?" The girl asked quietly, lifting her face to stare at him.
"The best bet would be when you drag him to the nurse's office after our morning fight." Ranma began planning. "Immediately douse him with hot water so he can't try and pin it on ya. If we're not in the immediate area the first time he changes, he should fixate on someone else."
"Sounds like a plan, Master." Nabiki agreed, rising to her feet and stretching her body like a cat. "I'll take care of dealing with Shampoo before class, but I don't know how long it's going to be before she can get our little... sample."
"If she has access to drowned girl water, how come she didn't use it on herself?" The martial artist asked.
"The curses mix." The girl answered, walking over to her closet to get her school uniform. "Instead of being a girl, she'd most likely wind up being a cat girl instead."
"So dunking myself in drowned boy water would..." The boy started, only to cut himself off before he could finish the thought.
"Yep." Nabiki nodded, glancing over at her Master and smiling when she saw him shiver. "You'd wind up being half and half. Maybe a boy with breasts or a girl with a flat chest and dick. Who knows? Cologne once told me that you could wind up being a hermaphrodyte or something like that. Either way, I don't know of anyone willing to risk the dangers to find out."
"Alright." Ranma closed his eyes for a second to find his center and escape the nightmarish visions dancing around in his mind. "You arrange for the water. I gotta go clean up and get ready for your 'sweet sister' to wake me up with another pail of water." He told her while heading towards the door.
Nabiki giggled at him for a moment before dressing to begin her day.
