However, that was not the most important thing to Soun at the moment. The Reversal Jewel! He needed it to make sure that Ranma would end up with Akane! "Where is it? Where is it!? WHERE IS-"
Soun stopped. His eyes were wide as he saw a bit of bluish dust on the floor and the tarnished from of the jewel was on the floor as well. It was easy for him to see that the Reversal Jewel had been destroyed. "Damn, guess I'll have to force Ranma to accept his destiny the old fashioned way..."
But first, Soun had to make sure Ranma was still around. The sounds of battle from outside were indication that he possibly was. So, running from his Dojo, Soun looked at the backyard. Ranma was there, but so was Ryoga, and... Some red-headed girl he had never seen before was beating up Happosai thoroughly with a BROOM!
Yes, Mimi was having a lot of fun venting out her frustrations on the perverted little troll. "AND TAKE THIS!" *TWHAP*! "AND SOME OF THIS!" *WHACK*! "AND MORE OF THESE!" *WHAP*! *WHAP*! *WHAP*!
Watching this spectatcle brought tears of Joy to his eyes. At last, the master was getting what he deserved. And while Ranma and Ryoga were destracted by the sight, Soun was readying himself so he could cowardly strike Ranma from behind attack Ranma head on and, force Ranma to be a slave to the Tendo Dojo make Ranma realize the error of his ways, and marry Akane so he could carry on the schools. "At last Ranma.... You're mine..." Soun thought...
However, before Soun could leap at Ranma, he felt someone tap him on the shoulder. Turning around, he saw a younger Japanese man in a rather expensive suit and a katana to his side. "Uh... Hello, can I help you?"
"Why yes, you can." The man said. "Is this the Tendo Dojo?"
Beeming proudly, Soun said, "Why, yes it is!"
The younger man nodded his head. "I see. TAKE IT AWAY BOYS!"
And with that, Soun got the shock of his life, as many men in large one-piece work-outfits started swarming into the backyard, securing the area all around the Tendo Dojo. "W, who are you? What are you and your people doing to my Dojo!?"
The young man looked seriously at Soun. "I, sir, am Lendo Rivalsan. Head of the Rivalsan Zaibatsu. A Genma Saotome had sold the Dojo to the Rivalsan Corporation."
"HE DID WHAT?" Soun screamed.
"Correct sir," Lendo answered, "The contract for the money he borrowed from us states that 'his' dojo was to be the collateral if he didn't pay up. And the closing date for him to pay up is up! The Dojo is legally mine."
Soun's eyes had widened to maximum. Genma had sold out their dream! "L. Lendo-san! This is cruel! That's my home!"
Lendo shrugged his shoulders. "Not my problem. Boys! Tear it down!"
Soun weeped as he watched as workers walked in with large tools and started tearing into the Dojo, breaking apart the wood as it if were nothing more that toothpicks... "GENMA, HOW COULD YOU!?!?" Soun screamed to the heavens.
Looking over the contract, Lendo answered Soun. "It seems Genma had quite a few debts to pay off."
Soun's crying increased hearing that.
"What's that!?"
"A woman named, 'Ranko Saotome'..."
"Sure."
"I'm comming too Ranma!"
"Fine Ryoga.."
