???Ken: Speed Help [Episode 152151]

by Kender

Training in the martial arts was something that Ranma had done through his entire life. He knew how to handle that sort of thing, and knew his body well enough to adapt to various changes in it. Anything, from a growth spurt to a sprained ankle had been pushed through until he was experienced enough to think that he knew how to handle anything that could be thrown at him.

This was somewhat interesting as well, since he had so much power and speed at his fingertips. Each time that he discovered something new, his enjoyment went up. It was fun to be able to know that he could avoid being late, even if he was almost totally out of time, or be able to do hours of work in minutes. And all the various little tricks that he could do made him feel like he was discovering things all the time.

So, he had to go out and find someone who could help him. Since it had happened to him, he was pretty sure that there was someone who it had happened to before. If he could find someone like that, he could discover all the techniques and tricks that they had learned, so that he could adapt them to fit his own style. And it didn't matter if he didn't use them himself, because it would at least give him an idea of where he should start from.
