(A.N. Genma hasn't shown up on this thread yet. And if you're confused with how Kodachi is portrayed, go back and read episode 39103.)
While Julia was getting set up to play referee and Daishi was playing commentator, with Gar, Carla, Luan, Brit, and Strype as spectators, Archon asked a question, "Before we start which one of you is Kodachi?"
The girl in the leotard pointed to herself, "Tis me."
Jalliele'Brea then asked a question that came up in her mind, "Why are you here trying to fight for Ranma? I thought that you had given up on him and was just a friend?"
Kodachi sighed, "It looks like I have been found out. True, I no longer pursue him, I mearly came with to get out of Nerima."
Akane looked at Kodachi in shock, "How dare you?! You said that these girls were taking advantage of 'your' Ranma-sama. I thought you were on our side?"
Kodachi smirked at the other three. "I never said I was. But would you believe me if I had said I had given him up?" They all shook their heads, "There's your answer. Good day." She then bounded over to where the spectators were.
Daishi blinked, "That's intersting, now the fight is no longer even. (Though that doesn't bother me, for I am a ninja.) I wonder how long it will take those other three to lose this fight?"
Julia shook her head, "No killing or permanently damaging blows." The girls nodded and Julia dropped a hand, "BEGIN!!"
********
Meanwhile Theo was speaking with the spirit of Jusenkyo. "My first question is, is how long have you been here?"
"Fairly reasonable I suppose. I've been here since before the arch-mage which made werecreatures was born."
Theo blinked in shock, "You predate Iceron?"
"Yes, and I can answer your next question, as for messing around with my 'favored child's' mind, the answer is partially."
Theo frowned, "So, Julia was correct after all."
"As I said partially, the infection which turned him into a were wasn't my doing directly."
"Directly?"
Jusenkyo chuckled, "Yes, the magic that surrounded my 'child' combined with the werecheetah DNA and latent magic surrounding the one that infected him allowed for it to happen."
Theo nodded, "So it appears we were right."
"Yes, as for the transfer of your daughter's libido, I had nothing to do with that, directly, or indirectly."
"So what did you do to Ranma?"
Jusenkyo smirked at Theo, "I mearly made it possible for him to access the Lunar Rave as it's called. The Armsmaster was correct in the fact that the Cat-fist allowed him to access the Lunar Rave. I also made him more affectionate to those that he really likes."
Theo nodded, "So it's nothing harmful then, but why are you doing it?"
Chuckling the spirit answered, "The increase in affection was so that he'd have enough guts to go through with some of his desires. But I have plans for him."
Theo raised an eyebrow, "Plans?"
"I shall tell you some, but not all, the first part is to bring the werecheetahs back from near-extinction."
Theo nodded, he could see that.
"Secondly, I plan to smooth things over with the wererat and werecheetah race, so that a massacre like what happened under twenty-five years ago does not happen again. By the way, here's a gift to you."
Theo then staggered as information bombared his mind. "W-What was this for?"
"The werecheetah's have an enchantment on them, the Doom Gaze, what I gave you allows you to remove it. Your two daughters and my 'child' have this Doom Gaze."
Theo nodded, "Okay, anything else?"
"I also have plans to eliminate Gothwrain. He messed around with my springs, and he has killed my 'children' in the past and he will pay. It helps when my 'favored child' has already said that he does not like Gothwrain."
Theo nodded he didn't like Gothwrain either. "Anything else? But wouldn't removing the Doom Gaze make it easy for Gothwrain to attack?"
"Don't worry about that. It will be taken care of. And I have other plans, but I will not get into them. Please ask the Armsmaster to back off of my 'child'."
"I can't say that she will." Theo shook his head, no way in hell that Julia would leave Ranma alone.
"Do not worry about that. Just tell her what I told you. She'd understand, after all when that golem Raphiel showed up at the wedding, she sure didn't try and stop yours and the werewolves plan."
Theo blinked his eyes in shock, "You know of that?"
"Of course, the one who created the werecheetah golem stopped by here and picked up a sample of spring of the drowned man to make him more life like and capable of reproducing."
"Oh, well, I had best be getting back." Theo then bowed in respect to the ancient spirit. "Thank you for your time."
"Oh, before you go, do remember to remove the Doom Gaze from the werecheetahs, Raphiel doesn't have it because the one who made him did not know of it."
Theo nodded before heading back to where Ranma, Seance and the rats were. The guyser smirked before going back under the water and started to make new plans for it's 'children'. Not just it's 'favored child'.
