RANMA HALF PINT
		curse of the next generation






Ranma "it feels so nice to finally be getting rid of this curse"
Ryoga "so you think it's nice to be getting rid of this curse, Ranma,
       well what about me"
Ranma "what about you, ryoga" 
Ryoga "my curse is much worse than yours. Imagine what Akane would do
       if she found  out..."
Akane "found out what?". 
Ranma "oh, it doesn't matter since we're married but Ryoga has a crush
       on you"
Ryoga "shut up!!!" he yells, smashing him into the wall with a punch
       in the jaw.
Akane "quit picking on Ryoga", swatting Ranma on the head, "is everyone
       packed?"
Ranma "yup"
Ryoga "yes"
Akane "hey Ranma, where's hiryu"
Ranma "did you check the dojo?"
Akane "no, why?"
Ranma "dunno, but he's been spending alot of time in there for the past
       few days"
Ryoga "hey, a few days ago he was asking me about the breaking point 
       technique so I told him about the training that shampoo's 
       grandmother gave me. You don't supose he's trying to learn it do
       you?"

BOOOOOOOMMMMM

Akane "what was THAT??"

Everyone runs out to the dojo, Ranma in the lead. when they get there
they find Hiryu lying unconcious on the ground surounded by gravel. A 
few moments later Hiryu reagains counciousness and, Ranma leaning over
him, puts his arms around Ranma giving him a hug.

Hiryu  "daddy look what I did. I make rock go boom. It big boom daddy."
Ranma "yes it was Hiryu, good job. I'm proud of you"
Akane "Are you ready for our trip to china Hiryu"
Hiryu  "yes mommy, I ready"
Ryoga "but he's only six, how could he master my technique so quickly?"
Ranma "dunno but he soaked up the chestnut training technique and the
       Möko Takabishain two weeks flat though he's still having trouble
       with the Hiryü Shöten Ha because he has his mothers temper"
Akane "Ranma you jerk" whap, "come on we've got to go meet shampoo and 
       Mousse at the beach"
Ryoga "I'll meet you there, i've got to go pick up my son, koyto, from
       his mother"
Ranma "I'll go with him to make certain he doesn't get lost. If he does
       it could add a week or more to our plans."
Akane "ok, see you there"
Ryoga "hey ranma, I've been trying to teach the breaking point 
       technique to my son for a month now and he's just barely got it
       mastered. Why do you suppose that is"
Ranma "your son is only five and he  picked it up. I was only teaching
       Hiryu the basics at that age. Give him time."

After a long trip they arrive at the beach

Akane "it's nice of you to invite us on your going home trip"
shampoo "it nothing"
Mousse "We're just glade to have you along. We'll miss you when you're 
	visit is over.
Akane "oh, we'll visit again. So how are ..."

Ranma and Ryoga came up to them with koyoto in tow. From the other 
direction a boy and a girl come running up. The boy is around 5, the
girl 4. Ranma catches the boy up in his arms.

Ranma "so how are you cream. And you too lotion."
cream and lotion together: "I fine."
shampoo: "everyone in boat. let get going."
ranma (whispering to ryoga) "isn't it amazing that she still can't 
	speak very well japanese"
ryoga (whispering back)"i think she does it on purpose"
ranma (still whispering)"but why?"
shampoo "it woman thing"

ranma and ryoga do confusion hand sign and face fault.

they had an uneventful sail to china, except when they had to circle
round and retreive ranma after a routine punt by akane. they then 
travel to jusenkyo where they meet up with the guide.

guide "ooh, not see you in long time"
ranma "can you show us where the spring of drowned boy is?"
guide "this way"

as they go off in the direction of the spring hiryu, cream, 
and lotion head off in the other diretion following koyoto.

hiryu "where going"
koyoto "to spring drowned man"
cream "guide say other way"
koyoto "he did?"
lotion "he did"
koyoto "then where we going"
cream "we headed to that pond. it say spring of drowned dodo"
hiryu "hey koyoto I board, let practice"
koyoto "ok"

hiryu did a flying kick sending koyoto into a nearby pond. 

cream "hey no go in water. daddy say it bad for you."
lotion "what dat sign say"
cream "spring of drowned hamster"

a hamster climbs out of the spring. lotion imediatly picks it up and
starts huging it. Meanwhile it glares at hiryu.

lotion "oh, it so soft and cute."
hiryu "is that you koyoto"
koyoto *glare*
lotion "oh, paste_chan so cute"
cream "paste_chan?"
hiryu "I think she is talking about koyoto"

suddenly paste_chan wiggles free of lotion and leaps at hiryu. hiryu 
takes an involantary step backwards, falling into a pond. cream looks
at the sign.

cream "i not know dragons real?"

a creature riseth from the water flame licking between it's lips.
after retreiving paste_chan lotion runs over and grabs it about 
the neck. it's head is just a bit above cream's.

cream "lets take paste_chan and Draco back to mom and dad"

lotion "wanna name aftershave"

cream "you name hamster, me name dragon"

lotion "ok, but me get name next thing"

cream "no, we decide together"

lotion "ok"

they make it back to the jusenkyo guide's shak and cream manages 
to boil some water. he doesn't know what to do with it though. he 
just remembers his dad saying that he'd go boil some water when his
mom turned into a cat. draco reached up with hi tail and managed to 
dump the hot water on himself and paste-chan. hiryu and koyoto get 
dressed in the clothes that cream had the for sight to fish out of 
the ponds. after this the children head back outside to wait for 
their parents. 

Hiryu: i still bored. 

Kyoto: i no want fight right now.

Hiryu: awww.

lotion: i wanna fight.

Hiryu: ok.

as the fight began the grownups came into sight. they all paused as 
they noticed what was going on. just as ranma was about to shout 
somthing, hiryu landed a blow sending lotion flying into a pond.

guide: ooo! too bad! she fall in pool of drowned panther. very tragic 
legened of panther What drown there 2300 years ago.

a panther cub climbes out of the water, notices the group of grown-ups
, and runs straight for them. ranma sees this and runs for his life.
lotion decides to see whats wrong with him and chases after him.

Ranma: GYAAAAAAH! GET IT AWAY! GET IT AWAY! HEEEELLLPPPP!!!!!

Lotion:mroew?

*an hour later*

Shampoo: Ranma, hiryu defeat lotion. lotion marry hiryu, yes.

Ranma: no! unlike my father i refuse to arrange my sons marrige.he gets
to make his own choice when he's older.

Shampoo: is true, too young to marry. I send lotion to marry him in ten 
year.

Ranma: you can send her but i don't promise that he'll marry her.

Shampoo: is deal.

*ten years later at the saotome dojo(formerly tendo dojo)*

*knock**knock* hiryu opens the door.

lotion: nihoe hiryu! i is lotion. you is fiance, yes.

Hiryu:*yelling* hey dad, you know anything about this?

Ranma:*coming into the hall* gee has it already been ten years. don't 
worry son nothing has even been discused about this let alone 
formalized.

cologne: don't be silly son-in-law. he must marry her by law. so this 
is the young groom.

Ranma: gyah! it's the goul again.*whap* i thought you'd be dead by now.

cologne: bah! i've still another three hundred years before i'm ready to
go. any way we just stopped by to say hello. we're going to reopen the
cat cafe until things are settled. see you later groom.

lotion:bye hiyru.

they leave

hiryu: i refuse.

ranma: i agree. i'll help you get out of this somehow.

akane comes in and hands hiryu a letter.

hiryu: hey dad get a load of this. it says to prepare to die but the 
date it says was yesterday. hmmm. it's from somone named kyoto.
