Dr. Ayanokoji had come to visit his friend. Ranma had nothing against the doctor but he did not want to be delayed in his training. He was making progress in his newest ki-techique, and was giddy at thought of being able to match Herb’s power. He should be able to perfect it today with a bit of luck.
His new sensei had impressed upon his the need for good manners. He was one of those people that you dare not disappoint. Ranma wondered if there was a martial arts technique for that sort of thing. Martial Arts School of Getting People To Do What You Want Without Beating The Crap Out Of Them. Well, it wouldn’t hurt to say at least hello.
“Good morning, Doctor Ayanokoji” Ranma said with a bow.
“Good morning, Saotome-san” Dr. Ayanokoji replied as he bowed back.
“Sorry doc, I‘m kinda in a rush. Be seeing ya” Ranma was hoping that the manners that Kamahito impressed upon him would work. No such luck.
“A moment of your time, Saotome-san” the good Doctor asked before Ranma moved one step. “I have some questions to ask of you.”
With a disappointed groan and a drop of his head, Ranma said “Fine”.
He figured that after yesterday's events the scientist would have some questions to ask him. Ranma realized something, the doctor might also have answers to some questions that had been nagging at him. He brightened and looked up to the doctor. "Call me Ranma, Doc"
“Ranma, then…and I don’t mind being called Doc. I was wondering, how did you manage to hold off the Kongo? I’ve known Kamahito for some time now and I’ve never seen anything like it”
“Oh, that? That’s nothing Doc.”
“Nothing? An ordinary man wouldn’t be able to do what you did. Is it some sort of magic that Kamahito never mentioned to me?”
“Nah, I’m a martial artist. I’m used to this kinda thing. That metal robot I fought at the mansion was a pushover compared to some of the weirdoes I’ve had ta fight”
“I see. “ The doctor looked skeptical for a moment. He then shook his head and turned back to Ranma.
Doctor Ayanokoji’s face showed great curiosity. “We have many things to talk about later . I take it you have questions of your own?”
“Yeah, Doc I do. You mentioned at the mansion that you created Kurumi. What is she? Sort of dunno"..Ranma tried to remember that word from the manga Daisuke regularly brought to school. "...Saber Marionette?"
Doctor Ayanokoji looked at Ranma with a puzzled look. “Saber Marionette?”
“Ya know…a girl android built to fight.”
The good doctor...
