_______-Later-_________
Genma had been very fortunate when Ranma, still angry for what had happened, and was about to beat her father, even in his knocked out state, was stopped by the Guide, the slightly-pudgy man frantically explaining that the curse was temporary. The Guide then demonstrated this claim by pouring warm water onto the unconscious panda, turning it back into the over-weight martial artist with the off-white gi. Ranma was sufficiently calmed, and allowed herself to be turned back into himself.
It proved to be rather futile, however, when hours later, after the Guide suggested they visit the local Chinese Amazon village for some answers, there came a sudden downpour, and Ranma was turned back into the blonde beauty. The rest of their travels was passed with the sound of the female Ranma's grumblings along the way, whilst she dragged her still unconscious Pop along the rough, rocky ground.
So that was how the Guide and Ranma, Genma currently resting on a particularly thorny bramble bush, found themselves on the wooden gates that lead into Joketsuzoku village.
Greeting them was a female warrior, dressed appropriately for her occupation as the guardian to the gate.
\Hail, honorable Guide!\ The woman hailed them as soon as they were within easy earshot.
\Hail, warrior.\ The Guide responded. \You honor your post by guarding the gates well.\
\Thank you, Guide. And how goes your daughter, little Plum?\ She asked amiably.
The Guide smiled in return as he responded, \She is doing well. Her education is also going fine.\
The Amazon nodded. Some of the woman always liked the Guide's curious little daughter whenever she visited them.
The Guide, meanwhile then looked around, a tinge of confusion in his next inquiry, \But where be your fellow warrior-sister that is supposed to guard alongside you?\
The woman in exotic Amazon armor laughed, \You do not know, honorable Guide?\ She then made a gesture towards the inner village, where what seemed to be festive music drifted into their ears, \Today is the day where they select the new village Champion.\
"Oh!" The Guide exclaimed, before turning to Ranma, who looked as lost as a certain fanged boy, trying to follow the conversation, and spoke in her language, "Is very lucky, Mr. Customer! Today is festival where Amazons choose next village Champion! Get to see good fights." Ranma seemed to perk up at this, always eager to see knew fighting styles.
The warrior, noticing Ranma's presence, as well as the fat unconscious panda, but that was a moot point, gave the blond figure a rather subtle leer, leaving no doubt as to what her sexual orientation was, and asked,\And who might this beauty be, Guide?\
The Guide, knowing this warrior's particular interests, just easily replied, \He...well, currently she, is one of two martial artists that happened by to Jusenkyo.\ He then gestured towards the prostrate panda, \This one be the fool that led Mr. Customer here towards being their cursed.\
The warrior sputtered, \H-he? She is currently a cursed male?!\ She said, a tinge of disappointment in her voice.
The Guide just rolled his eyes in amused exasperation, before replying, \Yes, and he, currently she, seeks answers to her curse. The Elder can explain further than I can. Is she available?\
The woman, trying to regain some semblance of her composure, answered, \Sh-she is not available until after the festival.\ She tried to look at the blond in a torn gi with open contempt, but the inquisitive, wide-eyed stare, as well as the creamy skin that showed through some of the tears in the fabric of the girl's gi, all the warrior had managed to do was try not to blush. \B-but y-you may go in a-and watch the festival. T-the tournament sh-should be starting s-soon...\
Rolling his eyes again, the Guide just bowed to the woman, Ranma clumsily doing the same, and said, \Thank you, warrior. Guard this gate well into the night.\ And walked into the village, the blond following, asking the Guide what that had been about.
The warrior-woman had mostly ignored this, as she currently had her back toward them, left hand on her left knee, and her right hand on her nose, trying to stem the flow of blood out of her nose after she was confronted by the teasing sight of supple and well-endowed breasts, the cold night air doing interesting things to the girl's stiff...
The warrior was now on her knees, both hands trying to stop the now stronger rush of nasal blood.
The Amazons are treated to a sight of a classic American cartoon moment as an anvil falls on Genma's head.
