On seeing teenage mutant ninja bikers swarming to the attack, the assembled martial artists started showing off their stuff - possibly because everyone was thoroughly sick and tired of being attacked by this point.
"Both Guns Blazing," announced Duke of the Old West Style Of Martial Arts, who apparently was also using his Infinite Six Gun special manuever since he was firing a lot more than six shots from his twin revolvers. ATV tires came apart in shredded rubber.
"Loot & Pillage," announced Sven of the Angripper School as he began lobbing axes at the bikers that cut ATVs in half.
"Nail Gun," called out Nobuo of the Ryuki School Of Martial Arts Carpentry, before putting a handful of nails in his mouth and then spitting them out with a machine gun like effect.
"Do You Want Fries With That"," was the attack of Kikyo of the Fast Food Style Martial Arts, sending exploding bags of french fries at the attackers.
"Akuryo Taisan" drew a few startled looks from the disguised Senshi but turned out to be Kimiyo of the Shrine Priestess Style. Rei made a note to talk to her later.
Rin of the Strong Tide School disdained use of her harpoon on small fry like this. She simply used a net so they'd have someone to question later.
"Mongollian Piledriver" was the manuever of Green Tiger of the Pro Wrestling Style Of Martial Arts.
DJ Dan of the Beatdown Style of Martial Arts didn't get a chance to use his special manuever, as it apparently required a sound system that was taken out by one of the mutants throwing a chain through it. DJ Dan just stood there for a moment before getting run over.
Illiyana of the Wandering Circus Style did a backflip, ended up behind one of the mutants, and used her special manuever. "Poodle Pack Frenzy!" A dozen trained poodles came out of nowhere to begin chewing on what was apparently sensitive anatomy on the biker.
Yuko of the Librarian style either didn't have a special manuever or didn't bother to use one. She merely avoided every attack that came towards her. Ranma thought it looked like an aikido variant to him.
Yohko and Azusa beat down their own attackers, but as these weren't supernatural menaces weren't in their usual element.
The Sailor Senshi were reluctant to go into Senshi identity without knowing more about these groups, and so kept to the background.
Which was when the Housekeeping Style began showing what they were capable of.
Housekeepers or domestic staff often operated as a team, though lone operatives were also common.
In this case, the maids and butlers formed teams and began using simple bo-staff or naginata manuevers using brooms and mops. They progressed to Iron Cloth manuevers with dishtowels, and finally proved their school had a fair budget by emerging with *POOM!*
The mutant bikers came to a staring stop as a building moved aside and an A-10 Avenger slowly rotated to face them. The 72mm Vulcan gun under the cockpit glittered menacingly.
"We're not scared of..." the mutant leader announced.
"White Wind," came Ranma's attack. Grass grew back in the tire marks left from ATVs, trees broke out into new bloom, the air seemed fresher, and the mutants suddenly began collapsing.
Ami Mizuno stared at her computer, that was almost the same effect as one of Sailor Moon's Healing Escalations but pulled off without a transformation or sceptre!
"Hmph," said Soun. "Relying on weapons. Hardly a true martial art, eh Saotome?"
Genma nodded his head in agreement.
Kasumi merely appreciated what a useful martial arts technique Ranma had.
