The Spells-R-Us Wizard smiled as Rygoa left the shop. He was a bit impressed that he had found the door at the first try, but not by much. It would be fun to watch what would happen, when Ryoga opened the book he bought. ‘Fantastic Tales’ indeed. It would turn the lost boy into something or someone out of a fantasy, SiFi or any other fictional novel, TV-series or what not.
Than the Wizard stopped in his thoughts, hadn’t he seen an ACME Self-Detonating Present Box hanging from the backpack? He shook the head. Naw, must have been his imagination.
Meanwhile Ryoga had made it to a park in Nerima, after passing the main reactor room of the USS Enterprise, one of the alien containment units in Area 51 and several other odd places he had been before. But he didn’t care, he had just found the right present for Akane and a present box for it in that wired storage room. He took the book and placed it in front of him and got the box from his backpack.
He briefly blinked at the big ACME logo on it, but shook his head as he placed it next to the book and opened the box. The box, being from ACME, did what it was designed to and detonated with the force of a hand grenade. The book was caught in the explosion and burned to cinder and set free its magic.
“RANMA THIS ALL YOUR FAULT!” he screamed before the change hit him.
Since this was Nerima, one of the biggest node of Ley-lines in the world, the transformation and reality altering magic of the book didn’t loose it’s power after the first few centimeters from it, but got amplified. Enough to effect everyone in a radius of ten Kilometers around the magical Ground Zero and changed reality worldwide.

“Okay,” he said and looked at his cards before suddenly zone out.
His poker-friends looked a bit worried at him.
“Something wrong,” asked the Starcraft Space Marine to his right.
The Star Wars Stormtrooper on the left snorted.
“He just got a bad hand.”
The fourth in the round, a Starship Trooper, looked a bit worried at the Star Trek Redshirt, who now shook his head and placed a bar of gold-pressed Latinum on the table.
“Nothing, just had this ominous feeling.”
------------------------------------
Akane stared at her finance as she sneezed. Ranma looked back.
“What?”
“Ranma no baka,” said Akane and stomped away.
Ranma blinked at looked after her half-klingon finance. She shook her head and went looking for warm water to restore her back to her natural male Drow form. She just didn’t like to be a human female. She simply ignored the Police-Osiris that stomped by in pursuit of an AT-ST, that had broken several traffic laws for mecha, while a Delta Flyer flew over her head towards Furrikan High.
“Come to me on the Dark Side, pig-tailed girl, and forget that Drow,” a voice said behind her.
She turned to see Darth Thunder, aka Tatewaki Kuno, aka the most luckiest and most pitiful Sith Lord.
Ranma just sighed and turned around, while Kuno tried to do the mind trick on her. He didn’t seem to understand that just the week-minded, as Kuno himself, were susceptible to the mind trick. At least Kasumi said so. And when Kasumi said so it had to be right, since she was a Jedi Knight.
