Just as naturally, as the exchange of lamp-slavery had taken place, Happosai had been too overcome by events to fight much but he HAD fought some at the very end out of sheer vindictiveness.
Nabiki pulled out a compact and examined herself in the mirror. Her features were mainly the same, save for the long pointed ears and the colors of hair and skin. "Can you grab my stuff, Saotome?"
Ranma picked up the discarded clothes, and used them to carry the lamp. "Okay, uhm..."
Nabiki flitted about his head briefly, then shrugged. She was a very stacked pixie, but at 11 inches tall, she was still hardly a powerful figure. "What? You think I can carry much like this? I can barely carry this compact. I'm sure there's some pixie magic for shrinking clothes and possessions, but I'd rather experiment when I'm alone."
"Oh," said Ranma, barely noticing when Nabiki perched on his shoulder.
Nabiki found this oddly content. As a pixie she'd rarely have to go to extreme efforts for herself, she could walk or fly, or just hop a ride on one of the big folk.

"Oh, hello, Ranma. Nabiki. My isn't this a surprise?" Kasumi asked brightly as she phased the rest of the way through the wood.
Nabiki nodded in greeting as she flitted around her sister. Just as she'd intended, Kasumi had become a wood nymph, able to phase through wood among other talents. As a dryad she was bound to a tree in the yard, but she didn't get out a lot anyway.
What concerned her was Akane, and Nabiki flitted up the stairs quickly to discover that Akane was
