Himura Kenshin could perhaps be forgiven for not understanding what the heck was going on. One moment, he was wandering the streets of Tokyo in the eleventh year of the Meiji. The next, he was in this strange, very westernized city, and although the men looked normal enough (albeit in strange attire), the women came in shapes and sizes and colors and textures that were highly varied.
That was a genteel way of saying that most of the female creatures walking down the street could hardly be considered human.
Kenshin had only barely come to terms with this oddity when another oddity turned up in the form of Team Bong, with its two members, Cheech and Chong. (These, of course, weren't really Cheech Marin and Thomas Chong, but rather the counterculture doped-up dopes they portrayed in their movies.) They called him an 'Amazon-Wu' and insisted he was about to be 'Tamed'.
Now, derivations of words from other languages was never his strong suit, but 'Amazon' suggested that they thought he was a woman. He had no idea what 'Taming' involved, but he suspected it would be rather unpleasant for him.
That didn't mean he knew how to handle it.
"Oro?" Himura Kenshin chirped again in confusion, blinking guilelessly.
Chong reached into his jacket and extracted a PokéBall, "Cheetit! I screw you!"
*boing!*
"Oro?!" squawked Kenshin once more, this time with eyes comically huge, as he watched an underclad woman having pointed, catlike ears and covered with spotted fur popped out of the strange red ball. This amazing western technology is quite wondrous, that it is! thought the stupefied samurai. This one wonders how they get full-sized people into those little balls!
"CHEETIT! CHEE-CHEE-CHEETIT!" shouted the cat-woman as she landed lithely in front of the astonished redheaded samurai whom Team Bong thought to be an Amazon-Wu.
"Um… A thousand pardons, but this one wants to know what is going on here," said the confused wanderer.
Cheech looked to Chong, who looked at Cheech. "Man, and people call me out of it!" he remarked. "Cheetit, Fast Attack!"
"CHEETIT!"
*WHACKO!*
"Ororo~~~!" yelped Kenshin as he tumbled, ramrod straight, into a wooden fence, knocking it down with a painful-sounding crash. When the dust cleared, Kenshin poked his head out of the rubble, eyes a-spinning in opposite directions. "Oro~~~…" he groaned weakly, managing to think in his daze, That woman is fast, that she is! And this one gets but one full line this episode. The rest of this one's utterances was all folleys, that they are.
"Yes! We beat the Amazon-Wu! Good going, Chong!" said Cheech. "Now, on to the Taming!"
Uh oh! Looks bad for Himura Kenshin!
