Stripping off armor, she stretched out and took a deep cleansing breath.
"SWEEE- URK!"
"Are you a gnome of some sort?" asked Elle, her longsword less than three cm from someone's left eyeball.
"No," said the little gnome-like creature as it hopped back. "You're not from around here, are you?"
"People here have a gift for understatement, I see," said Elle.
"My name is Happosai. I am the Master of the Anything Goes style, and it is customary to allow me to touch your body in order to gauge your skill level, plus a small gift of lingerie is also customary," tried Happosai.
Elle puzzled. One word hadn't been among those she'd learned through the speed-teaching spell. "What is 'lingerie'?"
"EHH?!" startled Happosai. How could someone with a shape like THAT not know the joys of silken underthings. "You're kidding, right?"
"No," said Elle, not lowering her sword a bit despite the gnome losing his combat stance. "There may be other words in your language that I do not know."
"I see," said the Happosai. "Well, how am I suppose to gauge your skill level without a proper fondle?"
"Oh, is that what you want?" asked Elle. "I'll oblige you then."
"Swee- AHK!" Happosai started forward then leapt back as the sword flicked out. He eyed the front of his gi, a little alarmed that there was now a section that sagged back from a thirteen centimeter cut.
"If all you want is to gauge my skill level," said Elle, "I could use a quick workout."
"Well," said Happosai, leaping and dodging, "once I figure out your pattern..."
"Excellent," said Elle. "You ARE a martial arts master then. This may yet be fun."
"Eh heh heh," said Happosai, dodging and weaving around sword-thrusts and slices, "I'll see you dressed in pretty lingerie soon enough!"
"So this 'lingerie' is some form of clothing?" asked Elle.
"The most important, eep, sort of clothing," said Happosai in between leaps and ducks.
"Well, then, let's see it," said Elle, stepping back and bringing her sword to a salute position.
Happosai blinked as the fight abruptly ended. "Eh?"
"I want to see what this 'lingerie' is," said Elle. "Bring some and I will decide if I shall model it for you."
"J-just like that?" asked Happosai.
"Yes," said Elle, a little puzzled by the gnome's change of mood. "Unless you cannot acquire this 'important clothing' you speak of..."
"I'll be right back!" yelped Happosai, rushing off before this elf could change her mind.
Finally Ranma had fallen asleep.
Slowly the door opened, with a figure checking to make sure the boy was asleep before creeping closer.
Apparently there was a way to turn into an elf. It just required a little sample of bodily fluids.
Slowly, carefully, the blanket was pulled away and a hand reached down Ranma's boxers.
