“Shabon Spray!” Went Sailor Mercury for the fifteenth time in the span of four minutes. Her liquid bubbles weren’t exactly the best thing for fighting natural, let alone radioactive fire... but it was something that had to be taken care of, lest the fire spread and cause further property damage to the neighborhood... or at least stop it from continuing long enough for people to start developing cancer.
Ignoring the collection of news-reporters, gossips, and other curious people that had gathered around the destruction of what had been the Tomoe mansion, it was, interestingly enough, Sailor Venus that was getting a conversation of sorts going with Gojira Junior. “Gojira-sama...” the Sailor Senshi of Venus said as she placed her hands in front of her. “I want to thank you for the assistance you offered us in fighting this new menace.”
GojiRanma just shrugged in response to that. He didn’t feel a need for thanks. He was just doing what he was supposed to do. As a martial artist, it was his duty to defend the weak from whatever evils might crop up, be they thugs, demons, stupid pandas...
“Shabon Spray!” Sailor Mercury cried out again, fighting the fires that were finally starting to die down.
Sweat-dropping at the Kaiju’s indifference to what had been going on, Sailor Venus was quick to add, “You did a good job here, Gojira-sama. We might not have defeated the enemy today, but your help was what made the real difference in battle.” She gnawed on her lower lip for a moment before adding, “We couldn’t have done it without you.”
Nodding his head, GojiRanma responded with a melancholy, “Grrreeaaaaannnn...” (Hey, it’s what I do...)
Nodding her head, the Sailor Senshi seemed to catch up on the vibe of what Gojira was trying to communicate. “Yes, Gojira. I’m sure even if you are the greatest, we aren’t. And really, you helping out was just the thing we needed.”
“Shabon Spray!” Went the Sailor Senshi of Mercury; wondering in the back of her mind about just WHY her ‘attack’ was so useless. It couldn’t even put fire out properly!
His chest puffing out in pride, GojiRanma tried to cross his arms over his chest as best he could... giving up after a few moments, he settled for placing his hands on his hips in a rather sassy pose. “Greeaaaan! Grreeeeaaaaaaaaaaannnn!” (Heh. You got THAT right! Ranma Saotome, best of the best!)
“I can’t believe how even under the scrutiny of so many different people, Venus is talking about this stuff so easily,” Mars commented to the group’s odango-haired leader, her eyes on the blonde in the orange fuku. Even if she felt it was something of the truth in this situation, she didn’t like how Sailor Venus was downplaying their abilities.
“Oh, it’ll be all right, Mars,” Sailor Moon told her fellow Senshi as she watched their latter member continue to communicate with the kick-ass King of the Kaiju. Then she added lowly under her breath, “I think...”
Finally, after a long pause, Sailor Venus all but blurted out, “Would you like to join the Sailor Senshi?”
The great Kaiju’s eyes widened as he intelligently responded, “GREAAAAAN!?” (WHAT!?)
Needless to say, others followed suite.
“What!?”
“What?”
“WHAT?”
“What?”
“What she say?”
“Huh?”
“She can’t be serious!”
“What?”
“What?”
“Shabon SpwwWHAAAT!?”
Chuckling nervously as she looked up at the tall Kaiju staring down at her, (and thereby missing the sight of the mansion frozen over in a block of ice from breaking Sailor Mercury’s concentration while performing her technique) Sailor Venus once again asked, “Would you like to join the Sailor Senshi? Please?” She gave him a wide smile, perspiration forming at her brow.
Looking down at the look on the bubbly blonde’s face, Ranma had to consider what she said. These girls were obviously heroes and had some sort of power... which turned out wasn’t enough and that they really could use his help in defending the innocent...
The innocent...
GojiRanma turned his head to look towards where Hotaru lay, being attended two by some medics that had arrived on the scene not long after the group of weird women and that jelly like thing that came out of Hotaru’s dad had vacated the area. The poor girl. How was she going to take to all this; her father a demon, her home destroyed...
Looking to Minako, GojiRanma had come to his decision.
