Ranma gritted his teeth in frustration. He really wanted to go medieval on that Gojira-clone with his big scimitars but Misato had told him that if the helsgate Sachiel created wasn't taken care of soon, Osaka would be overrun by demonic forces. Against his better judgement, he let the Fallen go and turned his attention on the inverted pentagram now decorating the streets.
A few slashes in the pavement and the crossed out mystical symbol lost its power. The few beings that had passed through were contained by Shampoo and Ukyo (doing wonders for their battered ego, too bad Akane couldn't join).
Ranma looked in disgust at the trail of destruction left by the Gojira look-alike. It was nowhere to be seen of course "What now ?"
Chibi-Misato concentrated "Sachiel is heading for Tokyo. We have a brief respite. It will take him several hours to reach it and the army will evacuate the people in its path, I hope" She blinked and smiled "Ranma ! There's another genie ring nearby ! I can feel it. Let's go get it !"
Ranma shrugged "It's okay with me as long as it gives more power to this Eva robot thingy..."
*****
Ranma had dismissed the Eva sacred armor for the time being and found himself with his clothes back on, to the disappointment of a certain genie woman. Misato had lead him to a deserted osakan museum. They were currently searching in the gaijin objects area. They had been left behind by the first westerners to make contact with Japan.
"Aha ! Found it, Master !" Misato pointed to a ring similar to her own in a showcase. It was marked as the jewelry from a rich netherlands trader executed for religious proselytism.
Ranma broke the glass, setting off the alarm, and took the ring. He put it on his finger and waited.
The ring grafted itself on his skin and glowed. Water and shards of ice flowed out of it and gathered in front of him. There was a flash of light, nearly blinding Ranma then he heard a cold and monotone voice say "Master..."
He looked at the woman who appeared. She looked a little younger than Misato and wore similar clothing, only in white and blue colors with crystalline plates replacing the metal of the genie of battle's costume. Her pale skin, red eyes and blue hair clearly marked her as a being beyond human.
Misato beamed "Hey, Rei ! Long time no see !" The master just acquired some long-range firepower. Good for him !
"Misato-san ? Then the time has come..." Rei stared intently at her new Sha'ir, making him unvoluntarily squirm "What are your orders, Master ?"
"First, you gotta lay off with this 'master' stuff. Call me by my name, Ranma" Having people trying to force him to do things he didn't want to do made him wary of having power on others "We don't have much time. There's a big monster headed for Tokyo and we're the only one who can stop it !"
Rei stayed emotionless "Then we must make haste to this Tokyo. The Fallen must be stopped at any costs"
Ranma sweatdropped. What was that girl's problem ? She was as lively as a refrigerator.
A crashing noise piercing through the alarm alerted them to the presence of other intruders in the museum. Ranma, Misato and Rei hid, waiting for them to come out.
