[Episode 115736] [Episode 115736]"My grandfather's out at the moment; he'll be back in a couple hours."
Ranma stifled a whimper. He knew that even if he turned around and ran, he wouldn't be able to find hot water in time. He tried to yank his eyes away from the shapely behind of the shrine maiden as she led him inside, and failed. He closed his eyes to block out the sight and shuddered as he could... smell her. He started breathing slowly through his mouth to keep from smelling anything.
He yelped as he barked his shin on the wood steps. His eyes flew open to see the girl staring at him in concern from only two feet away.
"Are you all right?"
His hands fisted tightly as he sought to keep them from reaching out and seizing the delicious body in front of him, tearing off her clothing and bringing her to the screaming height of pleasure. He could almost hear her yearning moans in his ears as he --
He pinched his leg hard enough to draw blood, snapping himself out of his daze.
"S-sorry. I'm a bit tired -- didn't get a lot of sleep last night."
He hadn't, either. He didn't dare sleep in the park or anywhere else outside -- what if it rained? So he'd shelled out some of his (small enough) cash for a room at a cheap hotel. He'd spent most of the night feeling paranoid about leaky roofs and burst pipes, and had only gotten a couple hours of rest.
His stomach took that cue to grumble, and he gratefully focused on his body's need for food over... well, his need for something not-food. Focus, focus. Rice, beans, curry, pickles, octopus, chicken, ramen, more rice, all slathered over a naked and writhing shrine maiden...
He winced.
"H-hot water!"
"Beg pardon?"
He took a deep breath and focused on his 'last resort' -- Oyaji naked on a hot summer day, fat oyaji naked on a hot summer day -- and spoke more slowly.
"Could I have some hot water?"
The girl eyed him with curiosity, but he was relieved to see her nod and leave the room.
He leaned back against the wall and sighed. He really hoped that the priest -- Hino, he thought the name was -- would be back soon. And would be able to help him...
He relaxed as the shrine maiden's scent continued to dissipate from the room. His mind wandered over the past few weeks, and he guiltily wondered about his past victims. All... three dozen or so of them. He felt especially guilty about the nine shrine maidens. Although he was getting better, he thought morbidly. Most of his victims were in China -- a group of girls who were traveling nearby Jusenkyo and a few other travelers on the way to a port. Another half dozen before he could find a ship (he wanted a plane, but couldn't afford that) that had a small cabin he could lock himself inside. Then a number more in separate incidents in Japan -- thankfully, never in public. He'd traveled mostly at night to avoid women, but there'd been a few unlucky encounters between an accidental dousing and getting hot water.
"Here's the hot water."
He started as the girl came back and held out a large mug of steaming liquid. His eyes slid past the cup and focused on the curve of her neck. An elegant arch, just asking for a hand to caress it before plunging into her costume to...
"Gack!"
He took a reflexive step backwards and stumbled, taking another step back to find -- nothing. He watched the girl's eyes widen and her hands come up to grab at him as he fell backwards. This was going to hurt, but at least he'd probably knock himself out on the walkway...
There was a sharp 'bang' as his head hit the ground, something hot hit his face, and something soft landed on him, and he knew no more.
