Like the fact that on one of her first journies through time, she had discovered a world in the far future where she was the only one left. Or rather, the only human being left. The only other form of animal life left on the planet in that time period was something she'd already disliked before: Cockroaches.
Just her and cockroaches. Lots and LOTS of cockroaches. And she'd looked at the eys of her other self and been terrified of what she'd found there.
Now, she later found out that she had inadvertantly stumbled upon an alternate future, but that did not change her opinion of the little vermin at all. In no way could she find any worth to the creatures, and shrank from even thinking about them.
So, she had been happy to hear a plan from the Arcadia.
*"K'hei and I have a plan!"* declared Y'uri, the Arcadia's sensor officer.
"What is it?" asked Mars.

*"Why not?"* came Ranma's voice.
*"Yeah! Readying weapon systems!"*
Hastur did not have much of a mind of his own, but he could recognise stimuli. Being attacked and having its body whittled away had sent it into the underground tunnels.
The earth trembling had made it sense that something was wrong. A rumbling sound made it take special notice. And the streams of water meant that it had to get away very quickly.
Out of the tunnel came Hastur.
Right in front of the massed firepower that had been ranged against him.
