"Probably hiding again," offered Akane. "Honestly. That pervert."
"There many times Shampoo wonder if good time to feed Akane to moat monster," confided Shampoo to Ukyo.
"She's not that bad," said Ukyo.
"Did you say something?" Akane asked.
"Nothing, sugar." "Is no important."
"You there," said Kodachi, stalking off to accost one of the locals.
"Can we leave her here?" Ukyo said hopefully.
"Which ones?" Shampoo asked.
"We can't leave Akane," said Ukyo.
"Is okay leave ribbon girl?" Shampoo asked. "Is okay, okay?"
"You there, peasant!"
The person being accosted looked down and checked. Wearing her nice formal wizard's robes with all the glowing runes and such, that shifted their appearance as she moved? Yes. Did she have her matching wizard's conical hat on straight? Yup. Did she have her glasses on over her mischievous green eyes? That too. Red hair brushed back and bound with her favorite silver barette? In place. Holding in her hands her Wand Of Power? Affirmative.
"Whom are you calling a peasant?" inquired the sorceress sweetly in dulcet tones that had the crowd drawing back away from the two..

Kodachi Kuno stared. She'd just spent a few minutes as a chicken, a hen to be exact. She spat a few feathers out of her mouth and stared at them as they drifted to the ground. She was obviously not facing some lowborn peasant but a powerful witch.
"Perhaps a dryad. World could always use some more scatterbrained uninhibited nymphs tied to their trees," mused Medea. "It always diverts the questing heroes and then they're in a better mood when they do show up. Maybe an ultrafertile dwarf woman. Having dwarves owing me a big favor could come in handy. Earthworm? Been a while since I've done that. I could always shove a hose up your butt and call you a fountain."
Kodachi Kuno swallowed nervously, eyes drawn to the wand being tapped idly by the curvy redhead whom she had just realized was more dangerous than half of the martial artists she knew. Kodachi was crazy. Didn't mean she was stupid. Well, not all of the time.
