[Episode 128847] [Episode 128847]Setsuna’s eyes slowly opened, to see a badly damaged Time Gate. She stood up while gently holding her head in her hands to ward off her headache.
“What happened? Wait, I remember, I was trying to get rid of Ranma, and caused a paradox storm. The SENSHI! Where are they? What happened to them?” a panicked Setsuna said. She then made her way to the Time Gates to inspect them. “Okay, no manipulating time for at least a thousand years. If I try it the gates will shatter, but I think I can use them to look at the current time stream, as long as I go gently.”
Slowly she starts to manipulate the time gate. “This was a lot easier when I had my staff,” she muttered darkly. She continued with, “Let’s see the princess seems to be in the right place and time. Luna’s on her way to meet her, and Artemis is with Venus. Michiru and Haruka are still together, so far so good. Professor Tomoe’s dead… WAIT A MINUTE HE’S DEAD? WHERE’S HOTARU? FOR THAT MATTER WHERE ARE MAKOTO, AMI, AND REI? Oh, there’s Rei but where are the rest? I see Ranma approaching a stone statue that looks a lot like Ami and an odd glowing skeleton like being in the corner. If I’m lucky the glowing skeleton will kill him.”
She watched as Ranma approached the statue the statue it is oddly decorated with a bikini, with brick patterned stone bracers on each wrist, brick patterned stone slabs on the upper arms one of which has writing carved on it, and a brick patterned tight leggings.
The skeleton in the corner looked at him with glowing purple eyes as he approached the statue. Her black hair moved softly in the air currents. The skeleton had pure skeletal arms and legs, but what looked like a flesh torso with bones gripping it up the sides and three small bones on her obviously female chest, and half of her face was covered with what looked like a scary skull mask with only the eye showing. Purple fire was being emitted from her joints.
“Why the hell did pops force me to take this job,” Ranma muttered, as he avoided getting close to the skeleton girl, and approached the statue while pulling a book out of his pocket. The professor wanted me to translate the writing on this statue, and to record what happens when I put my name in the proper place.”
Ranma glared at the runes for a second, and then copied the runes into a notebook. He leafed through the book he was carrying, and translated the words. “lets see, I think this set of runes indicate that it’s name is Ami. This set says something about being a guardian of Mercury, I think… no I think it’s better translated as Mercury guardian…”
At this point Pluto’s skin paled, from her normal tan to a pale white as she continued to listen in on Ranma’s translation.
“This part speaks of great knowledge, and over here seems to be a bunch of personality traits. This last part reads as, ‘I serve,’ I guess that is where I put my name,” he finished.
He took out a sheet of paper with runes on it and a small carving tool he slowly and deeply carved in his name in to the statue’s arm in the ancient runes. As soon as he finished the stone arm he was holding for support softened until it felt like cool flesh and the statues blue eyes opened. It spoke; my name is Ami, how may I serve you master?”
Ranma backed up, turned around and ran… at least he tried to. He collided with the skeleton girl that had moved behind him and fell on her in a compromising position. She reached up and pulled him into a kiss while thinking I like him I think I’ll let him keep me. She then said in a soft voice, “you seem nice, I think I’ll stay with you, my name is Hotaru.”
Ranma had only one thought, I’m going to be in trouble when I get back.
Meanwhile, Setsuna was banging her head on the floor, because she was afraid that doing it on the gates would break them. All the while she was banging her head she was screaming, “WHY!” over and over. She said it with each impact of her head. An hour later she stood up with a splitting headache and decided to see what became of the last senshi.
