[Episode 92727] [Episode 92727]Of course, the fiery priestess of the moon didn't know how wrong she was. Her merciful goddess in addition to the obvious curse had given Ranma some unintentional magical influences. There first of which was the ability to remember promises better, followed by a small compulsion to follow through with them. All in all, it should have been gentler than the normal geas. Selene however perhaps should have been more thorough with reading the life lines of the young interloper.
This was part of why the newly reborn red-head was currently, after getting her breath back from the earlier scream, giving forth a hollow chuckle which was creeping the young priestess out.
Ranma had remembered a lot of things. Several girls met during their journeys where he had made promises to not forget them or to come back. Lonely nights, sometimes tired and bruised where he promised himself to keep with it. He would be an adventurer with powerful techniques, even if it involved a learning style he detested. There was the entire reason he wanted to be a great adventurer, to endure hardship and suffering.
His mother. Ranma wasn't to sure about the details, being unable to remember if she was even a wu-jen, a samurai or something else, but he did remember that she wanted him to grow up to be a man she could be proud of. A few more techniques and he would have been able to return home proud and strong, instead of facing a dishonor so great his mother would commit sepukku.
Ranma wasn't thinking about any of this of course, nor was she thinking about the bobbling of her new breasts. She wasn't even thinking about how fair it was to agree to a divinely important quest and then get cursed, only to have an _ever_ so nice Selene preistess as hope.
She was vaguely aware of all of that, but more consumed with the feeling of hitting the bottom of her life and having the bottom drop out. Giving little further thought to it, she used her own personal modification of the Demon God Assault Bomb, drawing her thumbnail quickly across her bare stomache.
As the red-head slipped into the pool, Rei gasped at the spreading cloud of crimson polluting the clear waters Thinking quickly she dragged the cooling girl out of the waters in a vain attempt to keep the sacred pool from being further desecrated.
The Goddess of the Moon wasn't terribly pleased with what she glimpsed through the clouding vision of her pool. There went the hero, and Serenity as well most likely.
"Oh poopie."
It might also be observed that this particular Moon Goddess might have inherited certain 'blonde' traits from the SM timeline strand, since normally she would be considered understanding and kind.
In a lonely misty tower far away, the Seeress Pluto had a similar reaction, though for different reasons. The Fate thread holding this reality anchored was unravelling even now. She didn't know which outcome looked worse, the dark one as everything went to pot, or another round of timeline roulette.
Just as well, she was eight hundred years too old to be living in some dank, cockroach ridden tower with horrible tea blends. Maybe living in a nice house and looking forward to Wild Stallion Harem Tokyo wasn't so bad. Come to think of it, what was so spiffy about living in a giant crystal? It was almost like she had been under some kind of geas or something.
Gasping as he came out of another strange nightmare, Ranma saw:
