Creak, creak SMASH! "QUACK!!!!" Mousse broke free of the cage his duck-form had been trapped in. Thrown in the cargo deck while Shampoo got to ride with the passengers? How dare that old ghoul seperate them! Now all he had to do was open this door to spend the entire trip with Shampoo!
s-c-h-h-h-w-w-w-o-o-o-o-o-o-s-s-h-h-h-h-H-H-H-H-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-P-P-P-P-P-U-U-U-F-F!!!!
Ace frowned. "We just lost pressure in the cargo bay. What kinda fool would stowaway on MY plane and then open the door when we're cruising along at 10,000 feet?!"
"I hope that fool duck remembers he can fly," said Cologne, looking out the window.
SLAMMMMM!
The duck seemed to come to a complete stop as it impacted the water, still fumbling with its glasses.
Slowly it sunk beneath the waves.
Cologne sighed and put away her binoculars. "I hope that fool duck remembers he can swim."
A few tail feathers floated briefly along the surface.
The water began to bubble. Then to roil. Then to explode outward as a duck leapt up, away from a large number of sharks who seemed to have added duck to the menu today.
"QUAACCKKKKKKK!" Mousse cried out, running across the water and flapping arms wildly.
Akane blinked and put the perfectly formed three layer German chocolate cake to the side.
She scratched her head. "Well, that wasn't supposed to turn out like that, was it? Maybe if I..."
Happosai was still running.
He knew better than to try using the book.
He never ever ever considered consequences. He acted before thinking. He had very little common sense.
Happosai nonetheless would NOT try to use the Bakanomicon. Stick around while his two students were trying to do things with it? NO WAY!
So he'd run to the train station, hopped on the top of the 8:15 Southbound, switched trains at Okayama, boarded a freighter for Pararakelese Island, decided that wasn't going fast enough, and hitched a ride with some sharks who were chasing a duck.
Where they were going wasn't that important. Scantily clad island beauties ahead, most likely. Behind him, things would likely get completely FUBAR in short order.
Long ago, he had seen the results of the Bakanomicon.
A few thousand miles between him and it, and he'd feel a lot better.
Two fairly different girls with very different approaches to life.
Two girls who knew better, but still...
Yes, the book was dangerous. Yet it might also be their last great hope for the prize they sought - a young man named Ranma.
So while they were very different, both were sneaking into the Tendo house to steal a book.
Tatewaki Kuno ran a comb through his hair quickly. The Sorcerer Saotome was banished. What better time to go comfort his true love, Akane Tendo. And if the pigtailed girl were there, so much the better!
Then if the foul Sorcerer returned, how better to defeat a Sorcerer through Sorcery? That book would spell the end of the foul being!
Tatewaki Kuno ran to the Tendo home, entered, and found the most delicious odors coming from the kitchen.
There was his darling precious Akane, in the kitchen, concentrating entirely on the making of some fabulous repast - no doubt to welcome him here!
Tatewaki Kuno stepped forward, into the cloud of vapors that abruptly boiled out of the pan from which Akane had been fixing a feast.
When he stepped out of it, he was:
