by Bryan

Disclaimer: The ULTIMATE Enron-style disater scenario....May it NEVER happen in real life in any way, shape, form, or magnitude.... (-_-)

-----------------

Over 57 years ago, it killed THOUSANDS....

Today, it serves MILLIONS....

But thanks to greed, complacency, arrogance, and ignorance, the final bill was coming due....

* * *

Happosai was in tears! "Our homeland is about to become an uninhabitable wasteland!" she sobbed. "Design flaw...in ALL of them!...Two minutes left before the end begins....WE'RE DOOMED!!!"

Ranma never saw Happosai like this before! So this is what I look like when I'm under the Neko-Ken.... Ranma thought with palpable dread....

"It appears I own the consortium of subcontractors responsible for building ALL the nuclear power stations here in Japan." concluded Nabiki as she got some paper and a pen to write with. "They are all on the verge of melting down...and the operators don't even know it!"

"That doesn't sound so bad, Nabiki." said Ranma innocently.

"Remember Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Saotome?" asked Nabiki gravely as she began to write, "Only this time around, there won't be widespread mass destruction....Done. Read this--Kami-Sama, I hope I didn't make a mistake...." She held out the paper to Ranma, who took it and read it.

It was a detailed wish to prevent the oncoming disaster....

...Would it be enough?...

• Ranma reads the wish aloud and the disaster is averted! Ranma and Nabiki set out to expose the cover-up that almost, destroyed their homeland!...
• Ranma reads the wish aloud and the disaster is not averted! Ranma and Nabiki scramble to come up with a plan that will save the most lives in the face of the oncoming cataclysm....
• Ranma balks at the written out wish and says another wish to try and avert the disaster....
• In a fit of dread, doom, and utter delirium due to the current crisis at hand, Happosai snaps, snatches the written wish from Ranma and tears it up! What do Ranma and Nabiki do now as there is no time to spare for her to re-write the wish?!
• By Nabiki invoking the name of Kami-Sama, He sends 1/2/all 3 Norn(s) to assist Ranma and Nabiki in their time of dire need....
• Something else happened not specified in the above choices....
