ounds and also soothing sounds in Chinese which the bunny didn't understand a word of.
Bunny struggled to get out of the grip, but couldn't get out of it. By this time, everybody else there saw what the youngest of the Amazons held and came to see it.
"This one cute!"
"Aiya!"
They all surrounded Xu Pu and the bunny which was not very good for the bunny who fainted from sensory overload.
Xu Pu went up to the older girl who opened the door for them.
"This I keep ok?"
"Oh my, ok"
Kasumi didn't know where the bunny came from, but it seems that the younger girl wanted to keep it, since it wasn't hers and she didn't know where it came from, she really couldn't refuse it from the younger girl.
Ranma not having much of an idea what was going on, just looked around till his gaze caught the bunny which was surrounded by magic.
<Hmmm... interesting, could be shape changing demon>
[Xu Pu, may I see that bunny?]
"Ok"
When Xu Pu handed him the bunny, he looked at it closely and saw indeed that the creature was magic and that it was shape-changing magic.
<Hmm.... Interesting, shape changing magic>
He was looking at the bunny when it woke up and when it saw that it was Ranma holding him, he got very hostile and try to bite him to attack him in any way.
<Hmm... it's attacking me, but why>
Than he felt the same anger and depression he felt merely a few minutes ago at school.
<This can't be, can it?>
[Ryoga?]
[DAMN YOU!!!! BECAUSE OF YOU I HAVE SEEN HELL!!!!!]
[Hmm... It is you, you coward]
[How dare you call me a coward, you did this to me, you turned me into this thing. YOU TURNED ME INTO A BUNNY!!!! A FEMALE BUNNY!!!!!!!]
[Female bunny?]
Then Ranma started to laugh out loud. He remembered someone saying something like let's go at it like rabbits and he saw for fact that they do go at it.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
[How dare you laugh at me!!! Because of you I have seen hell!!]
[Well, it seems that you did see hell. Bunny hell]
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
People were confused as to why Ranma was laughing but that was cut short when the wall exploded and showed about 4 people in dark clothes.
"You are Ranma are you not?"
One of them asked Ranma who stopped laughing because of the explosion and dropped the bunny, which Xu Pu reclaimed.
"I am"
"Then die"

Ranma1/2
Ranma the Bastard!!
Chapter 8
Bardard World....
"Who are they?"
Dark Schneider asked as he was looking at the 4 clothed in dark and was threaten Ranma with death.
"I'm not sure Darshe, but one of them seem pretty powerful"
Arshes Nei told Dark Schneider. Gara wanted to make an observation too, but it seems that his jaws and his vocal cords were not working properly yet.
"Hmm....it's getting interesting, this might provide Ranma with some entertainment for a while"
Dark Schneider, having incredible faith in his heir, already decided that Ranma will rise as victor in this little up coming battle.
"You never know Darshe, things might not be as it seems"
"Huh?"
Ranmaverse...
"Huh?"
That was something that was on the mind of everyone present, except for Ranma. He was already checking them out for their fighting abilities, their magical abilities, and their chi or ki power levels.
"Ranma, you have anger the people of Musk Kingdom and you will pay the price"
"Oh, and let me get this right. The price is my life isn't that right?"
"You seem smart enough"
With that, the one who has been talking in low voice made some type of hand movement and the 3 started to move towards Ranma.
This was when Xien Pu woke up and saw Ranma standing there and went to give him the kiss of death.
This was when Akane saw that the 4 men were a threat and the 3 of them were moving towards her boyfriend.
This was when Kho Lon decided to watch Ranma in action herself and order the rest of the Amazon worriers to stay back.
All these things happened pretty fast, first Shampoo attached herself on Ranma and started to give him the kiss of marriage.
Next, Akane launched herself to one of the three men.
When the three saw that someone was attacking them, they went into defensive mode, but when they realized that it was a female they stopped and just stared as Akane launched herself at them.
Because the 3 just stood there and watched, and didn't react at all when Akane attacked one of them with vicious punch to the jaw.
Akane was satisfied that her punch, her attack connected and that now she can move onto the other 2 to defend her boyfriend when she started to feel pain on her fist and when she looked around, she saw that the person she hit was still standing there.
<What's going on? I hit him with my best punch!>
Akane couldn't understand what was going on, when she usually hit someone they go down, but this guy just stood there like her punch was nothing. In fact if she didn't know better, she would say that the guy and his friends were just looking at her. Rather looking at certain part of her.
"Pervert!!!!!"
With that Akane went into her destroy the pervert mode and started to attack the 3 with all her might. Which resulted in the same thing, the guy that she hit first just stood there and took everything she dealt.
Another guy just moved around her attacks like she was moving in slow speed.
Third one, she couldn't even get near because something prevented her from getting too close to him.
<This can't be happening! I'm the best martial artist in Nerima!>
While Akane was fighting or rather try to at least hurt them, other man in dark was just looking on at them impatiently.
Kho Lon decided that the girl had potential but not the necessary skills or the training to be a match to even Xu Pu.
Rest of the worriers were looking on with somewhat of hate and fear in them. Almost all of them were there during the battle with the Musk worriers and if it wasn't for Ranma they would have been captured by them.
Kasumi, Nabiki, Soun, and Genma were watching this whole even unfold with fascination.
Ranma had already figured out the power level of the three men while they were fighting Akane. Of course they weren't even letting a fraction of their real power, but Ranma could figure it out by watching them even now.
<Hmm...one with natural physical strength, one with natural speed and ability, and one with magical abilities. However, none of them comes near me... Although their leader seems to be interesting. He is letting off large amount of ki energy>
Although Xien Pu has just kissed him, he really didn't care that much for it, he rather pay attention to the growing fight rather then the girl at that point. Beside, he had kissed plenty of girls not to be bothered by this one. However, if he knew the full implication of that one kiss, he might have thought other wise.
Xien Pu on the other had was in heaven. She was now the official first wife of Ranma. She just stayed where she was, hanging on his neck and having her face buried in his chest.
"Mint, Lime, Lore master! Enough playing around. We came here to kill the one called Ranma, not play around with some girl!"
"But your highness, I have never seen one this close before!"
"Yes your highness, I want to see her breasts!"
"PERVERT!"
"His highness is right, we should not be playing with this girl"
"Well, since you said your business is with me, why don't we go to a different place, place more suited for what we have in mind?"
Ranma suggested after the leader of the group told the three lackeys.
"Of course, it won't be fitting for you to just die here, we shall make a grand event out of this"
At this point Akane was getting tired, and she decided to go for the leader instead of wasting her time with the underlings.
"KIYA!"
With that she launched herself at the leader, however, thing didn't turn out as she planed. The leader just pointed her hand at her and shot something out at her.
Last thing she thought before darkness overcame her was
<What was that?>
When Ranma saw the leader do that, he got slightly man and immediately caught Akane before she hit the ground and saw to that she wasn't all that injured.
"Don't worry, I did not kill the girl. I wasn't here for her. However, you on the other hand will surely die"
Ranma wasn't listening. He already knew that he didn't like the man in front of him. He hurt a girl. Ranma was always taught that girls were to be respected by Yoko, and girls are to be pleasured by Arshes Nei, girls are to be enjoyed by both Gara and Dark Schneider, but one thing that all of them taught him was that unless the girl was your enemy, threat, or your student, you never hurt her.
Beside he considered Akane to be somewhat of an amusement and his own personal property of some type.
"You know, you just made this personal. I was going to take it easy on you during the fight, but now I decided to just beat you"
"You can try Ranma"
"Let's go, I'll lead you to a suitable place for us to fight without anybody getting in the way"
With that Ranma levitated himself and started to leave. The leader levitated himself as well and followed and the three men who were looking at all the women in the house reluctantly started after them. Two of them running and one flying.
<This is a great chance to see my son-in-law in action>
With that Kho Lon started after them. She would have like to take the Amazon worriers with her, but she knew that none of them could probably follow them and if they came with her, she might miss something.
<Aiya! Ranma leaving without me!>
Xien Pu and other Amazons try to follow them but by half way there, they lost track of them and could not follow anymore and they had to return.
When they return they were met with Tendo family who were tending to Akane, well, Soun was crying his eyes out. Kasumi was tending to Akane and confirmed that there was no injury to her.
Nabiki was already making plans as how to turn this to her advantage.
Ryoga was in the pouch of Xu Pu, who had decided to keep her to herself.
<I can't let Ranma get away from!>
Ryoga tried to get out of the pouch so that he can go after Ranma, but the young Amazon already felt him struggle and kept a firm hand over the pouch so that the cute bunny couldn't escape.
<NO!!! I cannot lose him now! Ranma! This is all your fault!>
Where Ranma was...
"This seem like a good place for a beat down doesn't it?"
Ranma asked now standing in a middle of an empty space. There were standing in the middle of a wood clearing.
Ranma had lead the 4 strangers pretty far away from civilization as he can before he saw the place where a fight can take place.
"Yes, you have chosen well for your grave"
"Now, what is with you guys? Showing up all of a sudden out of now where. I mean are you guys that desperate for a beating?"
"Ranma, you have killed many of my men, for that you will die"
"Your men?"
"The Musk worriers you killed"
"Musk worriers?"
"Enough of this! Mint, Lime, Lore master, get him"
With that command, the three who have now taken off their dark robs attacked Ranma.
Kho Lon was watching this fight with interest. She knew about the three that the leader spoke of. They are supposedly be the greatest of the Musk worriers. Mint, Lime, and the Lore master.
Kho Lon watched carefully the Lore master for she heard that Lore master does not make appearance outside of Musk kingdom very often. This was great opportunity to learn what Musk magic was all about.
Ranma was watching them attack without much interest. As Mint got close to him with incredible speed, Ranma just grabbed him like he wasn't moving and tossed him towards the leader.
Mint was very surprised to be grabbed by him. He was the fasted member of his kingdom, next to Prince Herb that is. However, this man just grabbed him like he wasn't even moving and what was worse, just threw him towards the prince.
Herb watch the event unfold with keen eyes. He was surprised to see that Ranma grab Mint like he was nothing and threw him at himself. He threw up a ki shield, which Mint hit and dropped with air knocked out of him.
<Hmmm... he is fast, he might even be faster then I>
Next to face Ranma was Lime, who in all right was a walking tank and as stupid. Lime launched a vicious punch that would normally have killed a person, well utterly destroyed a person.
What shocked him and Herb was that Ranma just took it. He didn't move, block. He just stood there and took the punch to the jaw.
"Was that all? It felt like a fly just landed on my face"
<He took Lime's punch? Even I cannot do that>
For the first time Herb was rethinking the values and abilities of this Ranma. However, there was still the Lore master before he might have to step in to the fight himself.
Mean while, Kho Lon was impressed with Ranma. She had already figured out the true power of Lime and Mint and knew that there were very few people in her village that can fight them to a stand still and Ranma here was just playing with him.
<It seems that my great-granddaughter has gotten herself a fine husband>
Lime was surprised, this had never happened before. He was so confused that he didn't see what happened next.
Ranma seeing that Lime was stumped, just lifted his index finger, pointed it Lime's forehead and gave a gentle flick. Gentle flick which resulted him Lime flying backwards and slamming into 4 different trees before he came to a stop, unconscious.
"You know, this is boring, I mean you guys showed up with such a style I expected more from you"
"Lore master, kill this man now!"
"Of course"
Now it was Lore master's turn. He watched Ranma while he was fighting, no playing with Lime and Mint and knew that the man had great physical strength as well as ki abilities. No one can do that without the aid of ki to boost up their abilities.
"You were good, you have caused me to step out of the Musk kingdom. That alone says great deal about your skills. However, you will now die because now you face the Lore master of Musk kingdom"
"Whatever, let's get this show on the road!"
With that Ranma launched a fireball at the Lore master who put up a magical shield to block it.
<Hmm... this Ranma have some magical abilities as well, this might be fun>
Lore master was little surprised to see Ranma fire off a fireball, but he was expecting something of that nature so that he wasn't all that surprised.
Kho Lon was now truly impressed. She was told that Ranma had magical abilities, and from how he used language spell, she knew that he had magical powers. However, he also possessed a offensive magical abilities and that can be a great asset to the village.
<So, son-in-law, you are even bigger treasure then I originally thought!>
Ranma after shooting off the initial fireball was now thinking to himself about how boring this fight was going to be and how he was going to make it more fun.
<This guy has already reached his full potential... This is boring, maybe I should finish this quick and get on with the leader>
Now it was Lore master's turn to fight back.
"I'm impressed, you had an offensive magic in your arsenal, but let's see how you deal with mine!"
"Freeze Wind!"
With that Lore master of Musk kingdom launched a magical attack that started to turn everything around Ranma to freeze.
"Huh?"
Ranma just looked around in surprise.
But it was too late as Ranma was in cased in a thick block of ice that was too thick too even see Ranma clearly.
<NO!>
Kho Lon was about to jump into help, it just won't do to lose such a fine husband material now when they have just found it.
Lore master was looking on with smirk on his face, it was actually rather easy to beat him.
<I was worried for nothing>
Herb looked on with interest. He didn't think it would have been this easy.
<I would have thought he might have put on more fight. Well, let's finish him and leave this dirty country>
"Lore master, finish him, heal Mint and Lime and let's leave"
As Lore master was about to obey the prince, the ice that Ranma was in cased started to crack and with loud noise exploded outwards.
After the ice debris stopped coming down and the area was cleared they saw Ranma standing in the middle of what was before a huge ice block.
"Was that the best you can do? I mean really, I had ice dragon who gave me better fight that that!"
Lore master was angry, Ranma had just mocked him.
"I'll show you foolish man!"
"Pillar of Fire!"
With that he created a pillar of fire that swallowed up Ranma. He knew that Ranma could not survive that move. The fire was as hot as the magma from the earth.
He began to relax after a minute but soon as he was about to turn to his prince, he started to hear laughter.
"HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!"
He looked into the pillar unbelieving to see Ranma standing in the middle of the fire, with all his clothes burned off, but not burning himself.
"You know, that was very refreshing, now let me return you the favor!"
With that Ranma turned himself into a flame, and with the heat energy that the pillar was giving him, he made himself hotter then the magma of earth and he launched himself towards the Lore master.
"Ice Wall!" "Magic Shield!" "Flame Wall!"
Lore master try to put up as many defensive barrier as he can to block this attack from this unbelievable person. However, me made a grave error in creating a flame wall. Ranma was now a living flame, and flame wall only served to make his flame bigger.
Because he was already hotter than the magma and his flame just got bigger because of the flame wall, he went through the ice wall like it wasn't there and the magic shield that the Lore master put up was too weak to stop the incoming force that was Ranma.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"
Lore master was severely burned and injured. However, Ranma stopped just short of killing him and with his magical abilities, Ranma had no doubt that Lore master will live.
<I hope he recovers soon and come for revenge. That will be fun!>
Now there was only Ranma and the prince.
Ranma turned to look at the prince and in his eyes, Ranma saw hatred pointed towards him.
<Hmm...his angry, good! If I beat him here, he will most definitely come back for revenge. He might even bring more of his goons!>
Ranma was happy. Things were getting boring, of course there was school and situation with Akane, Miss Aino, and Nabiki. But those were sure to get boring real quick. What Ranma wanted was battle, and looks like this prince character is going to provide him with it.
<I might was well include that Ryoga into the fun, he has lot of potential, and with just the right help, he might keep me from getting too bored>
Ranma was already making plans as how to make Ryoga better so that he can at least be a challenge to him.
"You have done well, Ranma. But now you have angered me more then ever, you don't know what you have done. You will now suffer at the hands of the Prince of Musk Kingdom, descendant of the Dragon!"
"So, you are a descendant of the dragon huh?"
"I am Prince Herb, ruler of Musk Kingdom and the descendant of the dragon blood line!"
"Well, this should be interesting"
Ranma was thinking if he should tell the prince that he had killed many dragons back in his own world.
"Now Ranma, you DIE!"
With that Herb started to power up. Usually he didn't have to power up to face an opponent, however, he saw that Ranma was indeed powerful enemy and that he wasn't taking any chances.
Kho Lon was amazed at the power that Herb was showing. Amazons knew that the royal family of Musk family was from a dragon bloodline, however, she did not know the true power of one of them. It wasn't as though the Prince himself fought the actual battle or such, it was always the underlings.
<Hmm... it seems that prince Herb is a powerful being>
Ranma watched prince Herb power up with interest. He started to rate the level and was rather surprised that Herb has already passed some minor demons that he fought.
<This could get truly interesting>
When Herb was done powering up, one could see the outline of blue surrounding him, and also the energy that he was letting out.
"That was an impressive light show"
"As calm as ever, how does it feel to know that you are about to die?"
"You talk too much"
When Ranma said it, he fired an arrow made up of ice. He wanted to test the prince.
Herb saw that Ranma had initiated an attack and went into an attack himself. He shot a huge ki blast that destroyed and headed straight at Ranma.
Ranma saw that Herb has shot a ki blast at him, but the ki didn't feel so powerful, he allow it to approach him and hit him. However, when the blast hit him, he was put under very painful experience.
"AAAA!!"
"You have underestimated the blast"
Herb said after Ranma went down to one of his knees.
"I knew you could tell the level of power in blasts such as that. What you didn't know was that I can compress my ki blast so that it might seem like it's not powerful, when it is more powerful the blast twice it's size"
Ranma was down, the thing hurt. He was over confidant that he forgot to do more then a surface scan of the projectile.
"It had been an interesting adventure. You have defeated my worriers Mint, Lime, and our Lore master. However, you are no match for the prince of Musk. Now you die"
With that Herb fired off a ki blast the size of pinball which held incredible power. It was so compressed and so fast, Kho Lon had trouble following.
The blast then went and hit Ranma in the chest, going through his chest and exploding.
After the explosion, Herb and Kho Lon looked at where Ranma was only to see Ranma laying on the ground with huge whole in his chest.
"It was mistake angering the kingdom of Musk"
And with that Herb was about to collect his fallen men, when the wind started to blow.
At first Herb didn't think any of it but the wind started to blow harder and harder. Then the ground started to shake and then he knew something was wrong. Kho Lon could feel the power rise, Kho Lon could feel the nature and all that was around her bending to someone's will.
Then the body of Ranma started to glow with unnatural light and started to rise. That was when Kho Lon knew that Ranma was more then she ever dreamed of. This was when for the second time in her life, she feared.
Herb just stared at Ranma, he too felt the power rise, and he too felt that nature was obeying one mysterious force. But too see the man that he killed not 2 minutes ago being surrounded by a light and being lifted from the ground was something that he did not expect.
"What is the meaning of this? Is this one of your trick?"
With that Herb launched a ki blast toward the floating body of Ranma powerful enough to destroy small mountain. What he did not expect was that the ki blast being blocked by some type of force field.
Herb couldn't help but stare at it. He had just fired off one of his most powerful blast and the supposedly dead body just blocked it. That was when he started to hear the voice. Voice of Ranma.
"Herb, you came here to kill me for some odd reason. You wanted to show me your power, your ability. Do you dream that you are the worlds most powerful? Do you dream that none out there can defeat you? Do you feel that you hold the true power?"
When Herb was hearing these words, Herb looked around to see if this could be some kind of trick. But all he saw was the tree shaking angrily because of the strong winds.
"Herb, you foolish, foolish being, let me show you, true power!"
With that the body that was floating gave off a brilliant light which blinded both Herb and Kho Lon that they had to look away. When they looked back, there was Ranma, all healed and in a typical Dark Schneider outfit.
"HOW!?!?"
That was spoken by both Kho Lon and Herb both whom were so shocked that they didn't even notice that Ranma was wearing something entirely new.
"Well, Herb, I think it's about time I beat you so I will"
Ranma started to make hand movements and Herb knew that Ranma was about to make an attack, what he didn't expect was that when Ranma made the final move, he couldn't even defend himself. He put up the strongest of his ki shield and still the attack hit him and he was sent flying.
Just before he passed out the thought passed Herb that he was defeated. The prince of Musk kingdom, defeated.
<I will revenge myself!>
That was the last thing he though before passed out.
After performing his attack Ranma made sure that Herb wasn't dead. After all, it won't have to lose such an amusing fellow who had so much potential to becoming a great entertainment for him.
"How?"
"Huh?"
"How did you do such things?"
"What are you talking about?"
"How did you die and come back?"
Kho Lon was in her thinking mode. If Ranma can bring back the dead, then how great it would be to bring back the dead of their tribes. If he can raise himself, then surly he can do that for others.
"Oh, that it's a trade secret"
"Tell me!"
"Listen Kho Lon, it won't be a secret if I just told you now would it?"
Kho Lon was about to ask again, but this time, she thought better of it. He probably will refuse again and it wasn't as though she could force him to tell her. She will just have to wait her chances. After all he is now married to her great granddaughter and will soon be married to many other of their tribe members. It won't be long before the secret will be theirs. After that, they will regain their old glory.
"Well, I had fun, I think we should go back. Tendos and also your Amazons will probably miss us"
"Yes, let's go back to your wife"
"Yes let... huh?"
"Your wife, my great granddaughter"
"WIFE!?!?"
End of Chapter...
Next Chapter
Kho Lon and the Amazons tell Ranma and the others of their law. Guess who comes to town.
"Ranma Saotome! Your mine!"

Chapter 8
Bardard World....
"Who are they?"
Dark Schneider asked as he was looking at the 4 clothed in dark and was threaten Ranma with death.
"I'm not sure Darshe, but one of them seem pretty powerful"
Arshes Nei told Dark Schneider. Gara wanted to make an observation too, but it seems that his jaws and his vocal cords were not working properly yet.
"Hmm....it's getting interesting, this might provide Ranma with some entertainment for a while"
Dark Schneider, having incredible faith in his heir, already decided that Ranma will rise as victor in this little up coming battle.
"You never know Darshe, things might not be as it seems"

"Oh, and let me get this right. The price is my life isn't that right?"
"You seem smart enough"
With that, the one who has been talking in low voice made some type of hand movement and the 3 started to move towards Ranma.
This was when Xien Pu woke up and saw Ranma standing there and went to give him the kiss of death.
This was when Akane saw that the 4 men were a threat and the 3 of them were moving towards her boyfriend.
This was when Kho Lon decided to watch Ranma in action herself and order the rest of the Amazon worriers to stay back.
All these things happened pretty fast, first Shampoo attached herself on Ranma and started to give him the kiss of marriage.
Next, Akane launched herself to one of the three men.

<What's going on? I hit him with my best punch!>
Akane couldn't understand what was going on, when she usually hit someone they go down, but this guy just stood there like her punch was nothing. In fact if she didn't know better, she would say that the guy and his friends were just looking at her. Rather looking at certain part of her.

Another guy just moved around her attacks like she was moving in slow speed.
Third one, she couldn't even get near because something prevented her from getting too close to him.
<This can't be happening! I'm the best martial artist in Nerima!>
While Akane was fighting or rather try to at least hurt them, other man in dark was just looking on at them impatiently.
Kho Lon decided that the girl had potential but not the necessary skills or the training to be a match to even Xu Pu.
Rest of the worriers were looking on with somewhat of hate and fear in them. Almost all of them were there during the battle with the Musk worriers and if it wasn't for Ranma they would have been captured by them.
Kasumi, Nabiki, Soun, and Genma were watching this whole even unfold with fascination.
Ranma had already figured out the power level of the three men while they were fighting Akane. Of course they weren't even letting a fraction of their real power, but Ranma could figure it out by watching them even now.
<Hmm...one with natural physical strength, one with natural speed and ability, and one with magical abilities. However, none of them comes near me... Although their leader seems to be interesting. He is letting off large amount of ki energy>
Although Xien Pu has just kissed him, he really didn't care that much for it, he rather pay attention to the growing fight rather then the girl at that point. Beside, he had kissed plenty of girls not to be bothered by this one. However, if he knew the full implication of that one kiss, he might have thought other wise.
Xien Pu on the other had was in heaven. She was now the official first wife of Ranma. She just stayed where she was, hanging on his neck and having her face buried in his chest.
"Mint, Lime, Lore master! Enough playing around. We came here to kill the one called Ranma, not play around with some girl!"
"But your highness, I have never seen one this close before!"
"Yes your highness, I want to see her breasts!"
"PERVERT!"
"His highness is right, we should not be playing with this girl"
"Well, since you said your business is with me, why don't we go to a different place, place more suited for what we have in mind?"
Ranma suggested after the leader of the group told the three lackeys.
"Of course, it won't be fitting for you to just die here, we shall make a grand event out of this"
At this point Akane was getting tired, and she decided to go for the leader instead of wasting her time with the underlings.
"KIYA!"
With that she launched herself at the leader, however, thing didn't turn out as she planed. The leader just pointed her hand at her and shot something out at her.
Last thing she thought before darkness overcame her was
<What was that?>
When Ranma saw the leader do that, he got slightly man and immediately caught Akane before she hit the ground and saw to that she wasn't all that injured.
"Don't worry, I did not kill the girl. I wasn't here for her. However, you on the other hand will surely die"
Ranma wasn't listening. He already knew that he didn't like the man in front of him. He hurt a girl. Ranma was always taught that girls were to be respected by Yoko, and girls are to be pleasured by Arshes Nei, girls are to be enjoyed by both Gara and Dark Schneider, but one thing that all of them taught him was that unless the girl was your enemy, threat, or your student, you never hurt her.
Beside he considered Akane to be somewhat of an amusement and his own personal property of some type.
"You know, you just made this personal. I was going to take it easy on you during the fight, but now I decided to just beat you"
"You can try Ranma"
"Let's go, I'll lead you to a suitable place for us to fight without anybody getting in the way"
With that Ranma levitated himself and started to leave. The leader levitated himself as well and followed and the three men who were looking at all the women in the house reluctantly started after them. Two of them running and one flying.
<This is a great chance to see my son-in-law in action>
With that Kho Lon started after them. She would have like to take the Amazon worriers with her, but she knew that none of them could probably follow them and if they came with her, she might miss something.
<Aiya! Ranma leaving without me!>
Xien Pu and other Amazons try to follow them but by half way there, they lost track of them and could not follow anymore and they had to return.
When they return they were met with Tendo family who were tending to Akane, well, Soun was crying his eyes out. Kasumi was tending to Akane and confirmed that there was no injury to her.
Nabiki was already making plans as how to turn this to her advantage.
Ryoga was in the pouch of Xu Pu, who had decided to keep her to herself.
<I can't let Ranma get away from!>
Ryoga tried to get out of the pouch so that he can go after Ranma, but the young Amazon already felt him struggle and kept a firm hand over the pouch so that the cute bunny couldn't escape.
<NO!!! I cannot lose him now! Ranma! This is all your fault!>
Where Ranma was...
"This seem like a good place for a beat down doesn't it?"
Ranma asked now standing in a middle of an empty space. There were standing in the middle of a wood clearing.
Ranma had lead the 4 strangers pretty far away from civilization as he can before he saw the place where a fight can take place.
"Yes, you have chosen well for your grave"
"Now, what is with you guys? Showing up all of a sudden out of now where. I mean are you guys that desperate for a beating?"
"Ranma, you have killed many of my men, for that you will die"
"Your men?"
"The Musk worriers you killed"
"Musk worriers?"
"Enough of this! Mint, Lime, Lore master, get him"
With that command, the three who have now taken off their dark robs attacked Ranma.
Kho Lon was watching this fight with interest. She knew about the three that the leader spoke of. They are supposedly be the greatest of the Musk worriers. Mint, Lime, and the Lore master.
Kho Lon watched carefully the Lore master for she heard that Lore master does not make appearance outside of Musk kingdom very often. This was great opportunity to learn what Musk magic was all about.
Ranma was watching them attack without much interest. As Mint got close to him with incredible speed, Ranma just grabbed him like he wasn't moving and tossed him towards the leader.
Mint was very surprised to be grabbed by him. He was the fasted member of his kingdom, next to Prince Herb that is. However, this man just grabbed him like he wasn't even moving and what was worse, just threw him towards the prince.
Herb watch the event unfold with keen eyes. He was surprised to see that Ranma grab Mint like he was nothing and threw him at himself. He threw up a ki shield, which Mint hit and dropped with air knocked out of him.
<Hmmm... he is fast, he might even be faster then I>
Next to face Ranma was Lime, who in all right was a walking tank and as stupid. Lime launched a vicious punch that would normally have killed a person, well utterly destroyed a person.
What shocked him and Herb was that Ranma just took it. He didn't move, block. He just stood there and took the punch to the jaw.
"Was that all? It felt like a fly just landed on my face"
<He took Lime's punch? Even I cannot do that>
For the first time Herb was rethinking the values and abilities of this Ranma. However, there was still the Lore master before he might have to step in to the fight himself.
Mean while, Kho Lon was impressed with Ranma. She had already figured out the true power of Lime and Mint and knew that there were very few people in her village that can fight them to a stand still and Ranma here was just playing with him.
<It seems that my great-granddaughter has gotten herself a fine husband>
Lime was surprised, this had never happened before. He was so confused that he didn't see what happened next.
Ranma seeing that Lime was stumped, just lifted his index finger, pointed it Lime's forehead and gave a gentle flick. Gentle flick which resulted him Lime flying backwards and slamming into 4 different trees before he came to a stop, unconscious.
"You know, this is boring, I mean you guys showed up with such a style I expected more from you"
"Lore master, kill this man now!"
"Of course"
Now it was Lore master's turn. He watched Ranma while he was fighting, no playing with Lime and Mint and knew that the man had great physical strength as well as ki abilities. No one can do that without the aid of ki to boost up their abilities.
"You were good, you have caused me to step out of the Musk kingdom. That alone says great deal about your skills. However, you will now die because now you face the Lore master of Musk kingdom"
"Whatever, let's get this show on the road!"
With that Ranma launched a fireball at the Lore master who put up a magical shield to block it.
<Hmm... this Ranma have some magical abilities as well, this might be fun>
Lore master was little surprised to see Ranma fire off a fireball, but he was expecting something of that nature so that he wasn't all that surprised.
Kho Lon was now truly impressed. She was told that Ranma had magical abilities, and from how he used language spell, she knew that he had magical powers. However, he also possessed a offensive magical abilities and that can be a great asset to the village.
<So, son-in-law, you are even bigger treasure then I originally thought!>
Ranma after shooting off the initial fireball was now thinking to himself about how boring this fight was going to be and how he was going to make it more fun.
<This guy has already reached his full potential... This is boring, maybe I should finish this quick and get on with the leader>
Now it was Lore master's turn to fight back.
"I'm impressed, you had an offensive magic in your arsenal, but let's see how you deal with mine!"
"Freeze Wind!"
With that Lore master of Musk kingdom launched a magical attack that started to turn everything around Ranma to freeze.
"Huh?"
Ranma just looked around in surprise.
But it was too late as Ranma was in cased in a thick block of ice that was too thick too even see Ranma clearly.
<NO!>
Kho Lon was about to jump into help, it just won't do to lose such a fine husband material now when they have just found it.
Lore master was looking on with smirk on his face, it was actually rather easy to beat him.
<I was worried for nothing>
Herb looked on with interest. He didn't think it would have been this easy.
<I would have thought he might have put on more fight. Well, let's finish him and leave this dirty country>
"Lore master, finish him, heal Mint and Lime and let's leave"
As Lore master was about to obey the prince, the ice that Ranma was in cased started to crack and with loud noise exploded outwards.
After the ice debris stopped coming down and the area was cleared they saw Ranma standing in the middle of what was before a huge ice block.
"Was that the best you can do? I mean really, I had ice dragon who gave me better fight that that!"
Lore master was angry, Ranma had just mocked him.
"I'll show you foolish man!"
"Pillar of Fire!"
With that he created a pillar of fire that swallowed up Ranma. He knew that Ranma could not survive that move. The fire was as hot as the magma from the earth.
He began to relax after a minute but soon as he was about to turn to his prince, he started to hear laughter.
"HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!"
He looked into the pillar unbelieving to see Ranma standing in the middle of the fire, with all his clothes burned off, but not burning himself.
"You know, that was very refreshing, now let me return you the favor!"
With that Ranma turned himself into a flame, and with the heat energy that the pillar was giving him, he made himself hotter then the magma of earth and he launched himself towards the Lore master.
"Ice Wall!" "Magic Shield!" "Flame Wall!"
Lore master try to put up as many defensive barrier as he can to block this attack from this unbelievable person. However, me made a grave error in creating a flame wall. Ranma was now a living flame, and flame wall only served to make his flame bigger.
Because he was already hotter than the magma and his flame just got bigger because of the flame wall, he went through the ice wall like it wasn't there and the magic shield that the Lore master put up was too weak to stop the incoming force that was Ranma.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"
Lore master was severely burned and injured. However, Ranma stopped just short of killing him and with his magical abilities, Ranma had no doubt that Lore master will live.
<I hope he recovers soon and come for revenge. That will be fun!>
Now there was only Ranma and the prince.
Ranma turned to look at the prince and in his eyes, Ranma saw hatred pointed towards him.
<Hmm...his angry, good! If I beat him here, he will most definitely come back for revenge. He might even bring more of his goons!>
Ranma was happy. Things were getting boring, of course there was school and situation with Akane, Miss Aino, and Nabiki. But those were sure to get boring real quick. What Ranma wanted was battle, and looks like this prince character is going to provide him with it.
<I might was well include that Ryoga into the fun, he has lot of potential, and with just the right help, he might keep me from getting too bored>
Ranma was already making plans as how to make Ryoga better so that he can at least be a challenge to him.
"You have done well, Ranma. But now you have angered me more then ever, you don't know what you have done. You will now suffer at the hands of the Prince of Musk Kingdom, descendant of the Dragon!"
"So, you are a descendant of the dragon huh?"
"I am Prince Herb, ruler of Musk Kingdom and the descendant of the dragon blood line!"
"Well, this should be interesting"
Ranma was thinking if he should tell the prince that he had killed many dragons back in his own world.
"Now Ranma, you DIE!"
With that Herb started to power up. Usually he didn't have to power up to face an opponent, however, he saw that Ranma was indeed powerful enemy and that he wasn't taking any chances.
Kho Lon was amazed at the power that Herb was showing. Amazons knew that the royal family of Musk family was from a dragon bloodline, however, she did not know the true power of one of them. It wasn't as though the Prince himself fought the actual battle or such, it was always the underlings.
<Hmm... it seems that prince Herb is a powerful being>
Ranma watched prince Herb power up with interest. He started to rate the level and was rather surprised that Herb has already passed some minor demons that he fought.
<This could get truly interesting>
When Herb was done powering up, one could see the outline of blue surrounding him, and also the energy that he was letting out.
"That was an impressive light show"
"As calm as ever, how does it feel to know that you are about to die?"
"You talk too much"
When Ranma said it, he fired an arrow made up of ice. He wanted to test the prince.
Herb saw that Ranma had initiated an attack and went into an attack himself. He shot a huge ki blast that destroyed and headed straight at Ranma.
Ranma saw that Herb has shot a ki blast at him, but the ki didn't feel so powerful, he allow it to approach him and hit him. However, when the blast hit him, he was put under very painful experience.
"AAAA!!"
"You have underestimated the blast"
Herb said after Ranma went down to one of his knees.
"I knew you could tell the level of power in blasts such as that. What you didn't know was that I can compress my ki blast so that it might seem like it's not powerful, when it is more powerful the blast twice it's size"
Ranma was down, the thing hurt. He was over confidant that he forgot to do more then a surface scan of the projectile.
"It had been an interesting adventure. You have defeated my worriers Mint, Lime, and our Lore master. However, you are no match for the prince of Musk. Now you die"
With that Herb fired off a ki blast the size of pinball which held incredible power. It was so compressed and so fast, Kho Lon had trouble following.
The blast then went and hit Ranma in the chest, going through his chest and exploding.
After the explosion, Herb and Kho Lon looked at where Ranma was only to see Ranma laying on the ground with huge whole in his chest.
"It was mistake angering the kingdom of Musk"
And with that Herb was about to collect his fallen men, when the wind started to blow.
At first Herb didn't think any of it but the wind started to blow harder and harder. Then the ground started to shake and then he knew something was wrong. Kho Lon could feel the power rise, Kho Lon could feel the nature and all that was around her bending to someone's will.
Then the body of Ranma started to glow with unnatural light and started to rise. That was when Kho Lon knew that Ranma was more then she ever dreamed of. This was when for the second time in her life, she feared.
Herb just stared at Ranma, he too felt the power rise, and he too felt that nature was obeying one mysterious force. But too see the man that he killed not 2 minutes ago being surrounded by a light and being lifted from the ground was something that he did not expect.
"What is the meaning of this? Is this one of your trick?"
With that Herb launched a ki blast toward the floating body of Ranma powerful enough to destroy small mountain. What he did not expect was that the ki blast being blocked by some type of force field.
Herb couldn't help but stare at it. He had just fired off one of his most powerful blast and the supposedly dead body just blocked it. That was when he started to hear the voice. Voice of Ranma.
"Herb, you came here to kill me for some odd reason. You wanted to show me your power, your ability. Do you dream that you are the worlds most powerful? Do you dream that none out there can defeat you? Do you feel that you hold the true power?"
When Herb was hearing these words, Herb looked around to see if this could be some kind of trick. But all he saw was the tree shaking angrily because of the strong winds.
"Herb, you foolish, foolish being, let me show you, true power!"
With that the body that was floating gave off a brilliant light which blinded both Herb and Kho Lon that they had to look away. When they looked back, there was Ranma, all healed and in a typical Dark Schneider outfit.
"HOW!?!?"
That was spoken by both Kho Lon and Herb both whom were so shocked that they didn't even notice that Ranma was wearing something entirely new.
"Well, Herb, I think it's about time I beat you so I will"
Ranma started to make hand movements and Herb knew that Ranma was about to make an attack, what he didn't expect was that when Ranma made the final move, he couldn't even defend himself. He put up the strongest of his ki shield and still the attack hit him and he was sent flying.
Just before he passed out the thought passed Herb that he was defeated. The prince of Musk kingdom, defeated.
<I will revenge myself!>
That was the last thing he though before passed out.
After performing his attack Ranma made sure that Herb wasn't dead. After all, it won't have to lose such an amusing fellow who had so much potential to becoming a great entertainment for him.
"How?"
"Huh?"
"How did you do such things?"
"What are you talking about?"
"How did you die and come back?"
Kho Lon was in her thinking mode. If Ranma can bring back the dead, then how great it would be to bring back the dead of their tribes. If he can raise himself, then surly he can do that for others.
"Oh, that it's a trade secret"
"Tell me!"
"Listen Kho Lon, it won't be a secret if I just told you now would it?"
Kho Lon was about to ask again, but this time, she thought better of it. He probably will refuse again and it wasn't as though she could force him to tell her. She will just have to wait her chances. After all he is now married to her great granddaughter and will soon be married to many other of their tribe members. It won't be long before the secret will be theirs. After that, they will regain their old glory.
"Well, I had fun, I think we should go back. Tendos and also your Amazons will probably miss us"
"Yes, let's go back to your wife"
"Yes let... huh?"
"Your wife, my great granddaughter"
"WIFE!?!?"
End of Chapter 8...
Next Chapter
Kho Lon and the Amazons tell Ranma and the others of their law. Guess who comes to town.
"Ranma Saotome! Your mine!"
