Ranma’s eyes were completely blank. There wasn’t a single indication that he was even aware of his surroundings. In this state he would probably be running on instinct, and that was bad. He would probably attack anyone who approached him, and many were not willing to take that risk. If those muscles were of any indication, Ranma was now exceptionally strong; maybe even inhumanly strong.
Inside Ranma’s mind it was literal chaos. The programming Iceron installed in the orb was a vicious one. However, there were complications with the process at hand. Ranma’s own mind seemed to be operating at below the minimum that it should, there appeared to be some very nasty brain damage, and also Ranma’s growth appeared to have been stunted due to malnourishment. Naturally the magic of the orb saw these flaws as something to correct, but to do it required that some of the features Iceron intended to instill in his new “were-wolf” would have to be left out as it would need the extra magic to correct all these deficiencies. The first thing to go was the neko-ken; Iceron wouldn’t want one of his creations afraid of his were-cats. Second was bringing Ranma’s mental faculties up to speed, as well as correcting all the resulting brain damage that some of Genma’s “less-sane” methods had wrought on the boys mind. However, the orb then ran into a problem. It had run out of magical power before all the changes could be complete. Immediately it looked for a secondary source of power, and found it in the form of the Jusenkyo curse placed on Ranma. Calculating how much energy there was available, the orb saw there was enough to complete the change, but not enough for a full mental reprogramming. The orb would have to omit some of the programming. Finding two directives that were deemed to energy consuming, the orb finished its job while omitting said directives. Lastly, as the magic of Jusenkyo was being tapped dry, the orb turned Ranma back to his male form and placed in Ranma’s mind the necessary knowledge of what he had now become, how to shift forms, and all the weaknesses he needed to guard himself against; unfortunately the last bit of the programming had been left out as a result of the orb running out of power. Ranma would never be programmed to kill the were-rats on sight, nor would he be insanely loyal to his creator. He was still going to be Ranma, heart, mind, and soul.
With all the corrections made, Ranma’s brain began a systems reboot. In other words he blinked.
“Ugh! What hit me?” He asked no one in particular.
“Son-in-law…are you…alright?” Asked Cologne who was genuinely concerned over Ranma’s transformation.
Looking towards the ancient Amazon Ranma said, “I feel fine. Heck, I feel great, better then great! I haven’t felt this good since…….uh…I can’t really recall ever feeling this good.” Looking at Cologne, “Hey did you shrink, because you look a lot smaller then I remember?”
This promptly earned him a whap on the head from the ancient crone’s cane. Chuckling to herself, Cologne knew Ranma was alright. “Well Ranma, from the looks of things you appear uninjured, yet you have been changed by the orb’s magic.”
Ranma blinked and looked down at himself. “DAMN I’M HUGE! The orb wasn’t kidding when it said I would be changed forever.”
This time it was Cologne’s turn to blink. “Um Ranma, are you telling me that the orb told you what it did to you?”
“Well…not in greatest of detail, but enough for me to get the gist of things. There’s a lotta holes in my knowledge.”
“Airen is okay. Is what important, no?” Shampoo was eyeing Ranma hungrily, his clothing had not survived for the most part and plenty of his newly muscled body was very visible, if he was that big in body size, then he must be….Shampoo couldn’t think coherently after she caught a glimpse of his lower regions. Her imagination had degenerated into a naughty fantasy.
And she wasn’t alone either.
Akane was of course denying in her mind that Ranma was now drop dead sexy in his new form, but somewhere, deep in the back of her psyche, her libido was screaming something about breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert all at once.
Ukyo wasn’t much better off then Shampoo. She, like Shampoo, had glimpsed “down south” and had become beet red in the face, while her imagination was going into over drive at the implications of such size.
Nabiki was little more level headed then others, but even she had to admit that Ranma was now very exotic looking.
Kasumi was………well lets not go there. Overactive imaginations, and repressed hormones combined with a “furry” fetish don’t mix well.
