Lost Worlds Part two Original story by: Adam Sheehan MSTing by: M. H. Torringjan On the bridge, all is quiet. A spotlight turns on. Michelle comes on stage, wearing a formal black dress. "Hello, everyone, and welcome tonight to our presentation of Mystery Science Ballet 3000," Michelle says in a very controlled voice, unusual for her. "Tonight, we would like to present a ballet called, 'Pleasures of the Dance', andÉ" Whispering can be heard offstage. Michelle's ears are suddenly alert and hearing every word from the source of the whispering. "Oh, I've been informed that this is not entitled 'Pleasures of the Dance', but instead is entitledÉ 'From the Desk'. It's a collection of dances based on the most memorable of the Self-insertions that we've read. And now, without further adoÉ" A musical intro can be heard, with Mike, Crow, and Tom coming out onstage as David, Chase, and Richard. All of a sudden, Gypsy, painted green barges onstage. Mike and the bots are taken mildly by surprise, when Mike whips out three transformation sticks which give them Metroid suits! They dance a bit, avoiding the harmless, yet effective, attacks from Gypsy. After a while, they get tired and start shooting her up with laser beams. Gypsy acts dead, and Mike and the bots disappear in a puff of smoke. A few moments later, Mike re-emerges, dressed as Tuxedo Chris, along with Michelle, Crow, and Tom as the Sailor Senshi that he marries. They dance a bit (accompanied by a bit of Water Music), then leave the stage, just showing how much really went into that fic. Next up is Tom, who comes out dressed as Pat Lee. He is followed shortly by Crow, who is Ranma, and Michelle, who seems to be Beth. Tom runs around the stage, accompanied by the "Flight of the Bumblebee", followed by Michelle, who is holding a magazine in her hands (not really porn. Actually just a Nintendo Power). After he gets chased around for a while, he loses her and is faced with Ranma in a fight. They take jabs at each other, missing purposefully, until Tom hits Crow. Everyone runs off stage. Next, is Sailor Soulstone. Tom emerges as the evil guy from the story and asks for Soulstone. Mike emerges and promptly kicks his rear end to the tune of the Hallelujah Chorus. Everyone leaves again. Then, the stage lights go off as Tom and Crow prepare to perform the finale. Tom emerges to the tune of "I'm So Excited" as everyone's favorite hermaphrodite, with Crow emerging closely behind him as Artemis. Suddenly, the screen goes black and a small line of printscrolls acros the botom of the screen saying, "We are sorry to interrupt your viewing experience, but the actions described in this section of the program are of a nature that no one, not even the actors can perform without an airsick bag off stage. Luckily, the actors in this case are robots, or they would need strong mental counciling." The screen comes back on as the bots, who both look slightly greener, and Tom crying, and the humans take a final bow. As someone throws a boquet of flowers to them from off-screen, movie sign goes off. Door 6: It's a curtain of peace beads. You push them out of the way and get a whiff of marijuana smoke as you pass through. Door 5: It opens from the center, spiralling outward. Door 4: It's a castle moat. The gate falls and misses your feet by inches. Door 3: It's a wall of bone. You break it down, only to have it rebuilt by an invisible force. You decide to go around it instead. Door 2: It's in the shape of a heart. You board a small ship and ride it through the door. Door 1: It's a vault door. The center ring swirls and the door opens easily. Everyone sits down in their respective seats again, ready to take on the fanfic once again. They didn't know that it would be longer this time. > Lost Worlds > Chapter 2 > A Night to Remember Tom: A fic to try to forget. >Author's notes: Well this second chapter is more background info for the >story. Its about as long as the first one, so please read it. It is good for >this chapter that you know the storys behind Ranma 1/2 & Sailor Moon. Michelle: I smell crossover! >It >won't make that much sence if you don't. If you don't understand Ranma 1/2's >story or Sailor Moon, please take a look at my Ranma page or my Sailor Moon >page.E-mail me with any comments you might have. mavarick7@aol.com Mike: Are the mail bombs ready? Michelle: Armed and ready, sir! >Adam > >CHAPTER 2 > >A Night to Remember Tom: Redundancy, thy name is Lost Worlds. > Mr. Saotome came in and woke me up at about 6:30. I went down stairs >still a bit groggy but much better than before. Michelle: (Adam) Oohh, what did I do last night? >I walked out onto the patio >adjoining the kitchen. Everyone except for Kasumi was sitting around the >little table in the middle. "Glad to see that you are awake. I made a place >for you here." Kasumi said pointing to a space between Crow: Éher legs! Mike: CrowÉ >Ranma and Nabiki. > "Thank you," I said as I sat down. > I looked around the table. Tom: For some strange reason, everyone was wielding butcher's knives. >There was tea, rice and some rolls on the >outskirts of the table, just above the plaits Mike: They're braiding their hair at the table? Crow: Ranma's was getting a bit loose. >and silverware. There was a >big space in the middle for the main meal, that I had no clue of what it >was. Michelle: (Kasumi) Now, Adam, if you'd just step into this potÉ >I then remembered one little thing about me that might be a problem. I >realy don't eat much. Strick diet, and I don't think that this food makes >the list. Crow: Oh, and pizza does? >So I had no clue what I would eat. > " Dinners ready." A voice yelled from the kitchen. Tom: (Soun) Aren't you glad we invested in that talking stove, Kasumi? > The voice didn't sound like Kasumi's though. I then noticed that one >other person was missing from the table, Akane. Mike: Who would kidnap Akane? >She came through the curtain >from the kitchen Michelle: (singing) She came in through the kitchen windowÉ >carrying a big dish of god knows what. She slammed it down >on the table and said, "Here you go and there's seconds if you want more." > She said this like some poor sap was actully going to eat that toxic >stew in front of them. Then a thought hit me. Tom: OuchÉ >This is definitly not one of >the few things I eat. I said Kindly to Akane, "I'm sorry but I can't >eat...that. I'm on a stricked diet." Mike: A *strict* diet of junk food, eh? Crow: Can I be put on one of those, Mike? Mike: I don't know, are you in any health danger that would require that you get a new diet? Crow: Not really. > Then Akane said, "Oh, that's OK, you can just eat some thing else." > All of a sudden everyone started saying, "Me too! Me too!" Michelle: Who wants nothing? All: WE DO!! WE DO!! > "Hey! I know what all of the rest of you eat. So don't even try to get >something else. Your going to eat this, and your going to like it." Crow: (Akane) I know when I'm not wanted! Tom: (ibid) Éand I stay around, anyway! > I got up and went into the kitchen. I walked over and opened the >fridge. The was a lot of food. All: (sarcastically) No! >I decided on just making a grilled chesse. Mike: what, no bread or anything? >I >was still full from the pizza. Then Kasumi came in and said, "is there >anything I can get you?" > I answered, "No, I'm OK. I'm just going to make a sandwich for >myself." Mike: I thought that he was just grilling a piece of cheese. Michelle: Details, detailsÉ > She walked over and opened the stove door. She took out a cooked >goose. She looked at me a laughed. "You see this is the real meal. We'll >serve this after Akane leaves and they're done hiding the food she cooked." Crow: The irony of it is that Akane found it and put a bomb in it. She'll be the only one to survive. > I hade to laugh at that. it was a good idea though. I was just >finishing my dinner when Akane came through. She said, "I'm going for a jog >Kasumi. I'll be back later." Tom: (Akane) I'll just be going and making your lives a little more convenient so that the author can lengthen the story. > After that the rest of the family came in and headed straight for the >goose. That bird was gone in under ten seconds. Tom: I can't believe it, he timed it instead of eating it. Mike: We can't forget the all-junk-food diet, now can we? >They then went to the trash >and emptied some bags they were hiding, with Akane meal, and dumped it. "I >feel much better now eating real food then that poison she cooks," Ranma >said Michelle: (Ranma) Damn black widowÉ > Everyone fished cleaning up and went out onto the little board walk on >the side of the dojo. Ranma sat against a pillar and started reading a >magazine. Genma and Soun started playing Go. Nabiki turned on her walkman >and lied out along the walk. Kasumi for the first time relaxed with a book >against a wall. Tom: She's never read a book before? Crow: Three words: Hooked on Phonics. >This must be that little moment of peace after a meal. Mike: Éand before Adam's super-powers kick in! >To >help relax and give the food time to digest. I sat against the pillar to >Ranmas right and looked at the sun setting over the horizon. "Hey," Ranma >said, "Do you want something to read. > He handed me a magazine. Tom: Highlights! >The name of the magazine was Times. On the >cover they had picture of a forest with a lot of mist around it. The large >captions that described this were, 'The Ryogonzowa monster, Myth or >Mystery?' That article did not look that exiting, Mike: Well, of course it's not leaving. Magazines can't walk. >so I decided not to read >it. I opened it up and looked at the main page. There a lot of articles but >one caught my eye. Page 45, odd accurances in the area. I turned to the page >and started reading. Michelle: (Adam reading) SeeÉ SpotÉ runÉ Crow: (ibid) SeeÉ SpotÉ notÉ seeÉ theÉ carÉ > There have been many odd accurances in the local area lately and no >one seems to know anything about them. Last Tuesday, Mrs. R. Takahashi said >that she and a friend witnessed a shape in the sky that like a saucer flying >slowly over her house. Mike: (government official) You saw nothing, ma'am. What you saw was swamp gas. >Mrs. Takahashi said, "It looked like a round airplane >with little lights all over it . Then when looked away for one second and >looked back, it was gone." Crow: Now is time to worry about Rumiko. She talking like own creations. > Another weird story came Monday. A man named V. Cho Tom: Éfrom some obscure animeÉ >went for a walk >down his street Mike: (punk) Yeah, this is Big V's turf! You better recognize! >towards the local drug store to get some aspirin. On his way >there he heard a noise from an alleyand decided to find out what it was. Tom: (darkly) That was the last thing that he didÉ >Mr. >Cho said, "I walked down the alley to find out what the noise was. When I >got to the end of it I saw this big woolly beast rummaging through the >trash. Michelle: Lionel Hutz in a fur coatÉ >It turned around and roared. I then turned around and ran out of the >alley. There was no doubt about it. It was Big Foot." Tom: But, in actuality, it was the infamous "Little Toe"! > There have been reports of freak occurances this past week of storms >coming and going in small specified places. In these storms some people have >reported seeing portals near where the storm hit. Is the just some kind of >freak weather or is it a gateway into another world? We really do not know >how or why any of this is happening but mind you. Just keep an eye out for >the strange the next time you go out walking. Michelle: I'll be watching for Marilyn Manson. Crow: I'll be watching for Oscar! Mike: I'll be watching for Howard Stern! > It made me think about ways I could have gotten here. I didn't really >know if it was true or not since this was a tabloid magazine. Tom: Man, the quality of Time has gone downhill bigtime! >Mabey this >time they got lucky and found a real story. Just then Akane came back. She >jogged in and went straight into the house. A couple of minutes later Ranma >got up and stretched. Mike: Akane put him on the rack for those cliches earlier! Crow: (Akane) Macho Chick this! >"Well, we better get ready for the concert tonight." >Ranma said. "Akanes back and that means we can leave in about an hour." > I stared at him with a kinda confused look and said, "What concert?" Michelle: (Ranma) You tell us, Mister I-Know-Everything-About-You! > Ranma replied, "there's going to be a free concert tonight in the park >near town square. Your welcome to join us if you want?" > "Sounds like fun." I said. Crow: (Adam) If I was tonedeaf, that is! > "That's great. Then you probably want to take a bath first." Ranma >said. "I've got some spare cloths upstairs you can change into." Tom: (Ranma) They might be too small for you, though. > He quickly ran upstairs and came back down with some clothes. I took >them and headed for the bathroom. I walked into the bathroom before the >baths. I grabbed a towel, stripped down and opened the second door. For some >strange reason I totally ignored the running water sound coming from inside. >I saw Akane taking a bath. I started muttering, "I'm ah, I'm ah, I'm >ah..sorry. Michelle: He's doing his impressionof JFK! >I didnt,I,I,I did-." Michelle: -n't think? Mike: -n't pay attention? Crow: -n't learn to write/spell? > Smack! She came up and gave me a good smack across the face. "Are all >men perverts?!" Akane said flustered. Michelle: Are her lines solely comprised of cliches? > I quickly backed up into the other room and closed the door. I put a >towel on and waited out side the bathroom. I could still hear here >complaining about the male gender from outside. Crow: (Akane) Friggin' guy, almost made this into a lemon. Probably would have written it badly, tooÉ >In about twenty minutes the >door opened and she came out. She gave me a long stare and walked by. Tom: (Akane) You will be the next to know the wrath of Akane! >I >quickly went back into the bathroom. I looked around to make sure no one >else was I here. Mike: Look, you just told us that you were there. Don't be getting meta-physical on us. >I then finally got to take my bath. It was relaxing and >exactly what I needed for my broken finger. I seemed weird Michelle: I can vouch for that one. >that my finger >stayed broken while every other injury healed itself quite quickly. I spent >twenty minutes in the bath, and then got out. Crow: Does he time everything that he does? >The new clothes I got from >Ranma were nice looking. He gave me a black silk shirt with some light blue >silk pants. The shirt had a blue dragon going down the left arm. Tom: Éand an archery target on the back. >The pants >had a black dragon going down the right leg. They were very comfortable. > I walked out of the bathroom and headed downstairs. At the bottom of >the stairs all the people were running around getting ready for tonight. >"Look'n good man," Ranma said. > "Yes very nice." Kasumi added. > I said kindly, "Thanks." > "Ya, something out of SQ." Ranma said. > I asked inquisitively, "SQ?" Mike: Stupid Question? Tom: Sour Quart? Crow: Stump Quiche? Michelle: Stinking Quality? > "Samurai Quarterly." > "Of course." I answered with a laugh. > "Is Everybody ready?" Soun said. Tom: Éto die? > We all answered yes and headed out the front door. The park was only a >mile and a half down the road so we walked to it. The sun was setting and it >looked to be a beautiful night. Michelle: It's beautiful the way that the muggers, drunkards, and crackheads come out! >We reached the park I relized it was the >same park that I woke up in. In the middle of the park was a big space were >someone had put up a stage. There were many people all over the place. There >was a big group of people around the stage Crow: Oh, no! The deadheads took a wrong turn and ended up in Japan! >and some scattered ones of to the >sides of it. We walked around the main group and stopped by a tree on a >little hill. You had a decent view of the stage and a great view of the >park. Kasumi took out a blanket from a bag she was carrying and laid it down >on the ground. Tom: (Kasumi) Oh, I'm too good to sit on the grass. It's just so icky! >Everyone sat down and relaxed. Mr. Tendo and Mr. Saotome took >out their pipes and started smoking. Mike: They turned into stoners! Michelle: (Genma) The colorsÉ! Crow: (Soun) Is the grass melting for you, too? >The band on stage had just started >warming up. They sounded like they could be decent. Just then Ranma stood up >and said, "I'm going to go look around. Anyone like to come?" > Akane and Nabiki got up. "Are you coming too Adam?" Ranma said. > I got up and Said,"Ya, I would like to look around and meet some >people. I mean who knows, I probebly already know most of the people here." > We headed down the hill and into the huddled mass. Tom: Bring me your sick and huddled masses! No, wait, leave that one there! >We cut through >until we got near the middle. Ranma stopped and picked up a conversation >with someone. I moved in as quickly as I could, trying not to bump into >anybody. Ranma said, "Hey Tetsuo, how ya doin'." Mike: (Tetsuo) Pretty good, RanÉ MY GOD! What is that thing that you have with you?! > Tetsuo? I was about five feet away from them. I could see them >talking. It was the Tetsuo I thought it was, from Akira. I tried to move >closer. Just then I got hit from the side and knocked down. I thought I was >in a mosh pit for a second. Tom: Maybe he'll get trampledÉ >"I'm sorry are you all right?" Someone said. > I looked up and saw a tall girl with long brown hair. She was warring >blue jeans, Crow: (girl) Damn Wrangler! These jeans are too tight! I'll sue! >a green T-shirt, and blue over shirt. It was Lita, Sailor >Jupiter from Sailor Moon, my favorite scout. "Here let me help you up." She >said. "Hey, you remind me of my old boyfriend Ben, but you have bigger >sholders." Michelle: Did anyone not see that one coming? (no one raises hands) > "Thanks for helping me up."I said as she pulled me up. Mike: (Adam) Éthen threw me back down and started kicking me! > "I'm just sorry I knocked you down. Hi, my name is Lita. What's >yours?" Michelle: (Adam) They call me John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt. Mike: (Lita) That's my name, too! > I said with an acward smile, "My names Adam. Nice to meet you." > She said with a smile, "Nice to meet you too." Tom: Just smile and nod. Then, back away slowly and RUN! > "Lita, I told you we would get lost in this big crowd." A voice said >coming through the crowd. Mike: There are a lot of disembodied voices in this story. > I turned around and saw a klutzy girl walking towards me. Michelle: C-ko? Crow: Akane? Tom: Leona? >She was >followed by three other girls. Mike: B-ko and her cronies? Crow: The Puma Triplets? Tom: I thought that it was Puma twins. Crow: Only in the real show. Not my fantasies. >I knew exactly who they were even before I >got a good look at them. Michelle: How'd he do that? Crow: Think about it. Who's writing the story? >It was Serrina, Raye, Mina, and Amy-the scouts. Tom: Impossible! None of them are physically strong, mentally awake, or morally straight! >It >was all of them, the whole gang. Mike: The infamous Senshi Mafia! Tom: Lita "Guido" Kino, Mina "Lefty" Aino, Raye "One-Eye" Hino, and Amy "Smarty" Anderson! >"Oh, I'm sorry, I just wanted to get closer >to the stage. I guess I forgot about you guys." > Serrina came walking towards when she tripped over someone's foot and >fell with a crash. Michelle: Hey! Serena's not Sailor Jupiter! >"Your such a hazzard Serrina. I swear that you would trip >over an ant sometimes." Raye said obnoxiously. > Serrina got up and said, "Hey, I don't need any criticism from someone >like you." Crow: What about from us? Tom: Apparently, theauthor felt that he didn't need any *criticism* from a spell-checker, either. > "Can you both please stop arguing. Your annoying enough with out >arguments." Lita said. > "Annoying!" Both Serrina and Raye said. > "Who are you calling annoying missy. "Raye Said. Mike: (Lita) Actually, I was talking about Adam. > "Ya, your no princess yourself." Serrina said. Tom: Serena would know a lot about not being a princess, ne? > I stood there and watched them continue arguing with each other. Their >energy to keep this up surprised me, Michelle: I've found that it doesn't take much energy to talk. It's just breathingÉ Rest: Nag, nag, nagÉ *smack* SHUT UP!! >but I decided to stop this pointless >argument so I could enjoy the show. I said, "Ladies, ladies. Please, can you >please stop fighting. It's not necessary. Crow: Oh, come on. It's the comedy relief! >I know you're all friends, and >that friends do not need to argue this much. You don't need to get on each >other's case over the littlest of things. I mean, I know that you all care >about each other very much and that you really don't mean what you say. Tom: Are we taking bets? Mike: Has anyone here noticed that Adam's trying to do his impression of Pat? >I >know that you Raye do believe in Serrina even though she is a klutz. Why >can't you work things out peacefully like Mina and Amy? Crow: (Lita) What am I, chopped liver? >Do you get what I'm >saying?" Mike: Can't we all just get along? > They all looked at me in amazement. They were all quiet. Even with the >roar of the crowd and the band playing I could only hear silence. A big drop >of water rolled down my head Michelle: Well, the tickets did say, "rain or shine". Crow: Maybe the fic will be called on account of rain. >and I said to myself, "Well that was very >stupid. They don't know you know who they are." > Serrina said in amazement, "Lita, who is this?" Tom: (Lita) This is crush number 5,239,142,201. > Lita answer in a not so sure voice, "this is Adam...someone I just met >a minute ago." Crow: (Serena) Let me guess, he looks like your old boyfriend. > "Then how does he know who we all are?" Amy asked inquisitively. > "I don't know. How do you know about us?" Michelle: (Adam) Look, I could hear her for myself. > I had to answer them, but what to say. Well, I guess the truth. So I >said, "You see... I kinda, ah... came from, ah...this-" Tom: (Adam) Ooh, ALIENS! Scary! (quick, push the button) E.T. phone home! Scaaary! > "Don't worry about him, he's a friend of mine." Ranma jumped in and Tom: Ésaid as he opened fire on the helpless crowd with his handy-dandy uzi! >said. "He's kinda not from around here." > "Then how does he know all about us." Mina asked. Mike: (Ranma) Know what about you? Michelle: ...a subtle comment on the fact that RANMA SHOULDN'T KNOW ABOUT THEM, EITHER!!! > Ranma said, "well you see It all started this morning..." Crow: A morning that will live on in infamyÉ > As Ranma started to tell them the short vertion of my story I didn't >know If I should have stopped him or not. So I figured It probably would be >better if they knew the truth. Tom: THEY CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!!! Mike: Tom, calm downÉ >I figured they would believe the story since >they have seen some weird things happen to them before, with the Negaverse >and all. Crow: Stuff had happened. It had been cool. >"And that's how he knows about you." Ranma said finishing up my >story." Tom: And it only took him five minutes to tell the whole thing. > "So what he is saying is that you know us from TV shows and comic >books from a different world." Raye said. > "Yea, thats pretty much the story." I said. Michelle: (Raye) And we're supposed to *believe* that? Crow: (Serena) We have to. Michelle: (Raye) Why? Crow: (Serena) Because it's in the script. > "Well if you know so much about us, tell me something secret. >Something only we would know." Lita said. > If I needed to prove to her that I was telling the truth, so be it. I >walked up to Lita and whispered in her ear, "I know that your Sailor Jupiter >and that Serrina is Sailor moon a.k.a. the moon princess (that perked her >interest). Tom: (Adam) Éand I also know about your "talent". >I know about Queen Barrel, Crow: Éthe long-time ally of Donkey Kong! >Reni, the silver emporium Crystal, and >that the cats Luna and Atriums can talk. I even know about your best friend >Ken. Now do you believe me?" Mike: (Lita) No. We've never fought a Queen Barrel, we don't have a Silver Emporium, we don't have a cat named Atriums, and I just said that my friend's name was Ben. > Lita turned and looked at me in astonishment. She then said, "He's >telling the truth. He is from another world." Michelle: (Lita) Éand there's absolutely no chance that he's a spy! > She walked over and told the girls what I said to her. Serrina then >said, 'Well if Lita says your for real than I'll believe her. Nice to meet >you. What did you say your name was again?" Mike: (Adam) I am designated Locutus of Borg. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile. Your biological information will be added to our own. We are Adam. > "My name is Adam." I said. > Just then Darrien with Reni on his shoulders came through the crowd. >Reni was holding a balloon and eating some cotton candy. Tom: Éwhich, through some enormous mix-up was real cotton. >"Hi Serrina! Do you >want some of my candy?" Reni said. > Serrina said hungrily, "Ya, give me some." > She reached up and grabbed it and started chomping on it. "Hey don't >eat it all like you did last time, OK." Reni said. Mike: This is out of character. Rini being nice to Serena. > "Ya, ya, don't worry about it." Serrina said with a mouth full of >food. Mike: Anybody know when Sailor Moon picked up the German accents? Tom: Well, it is on in Germany. Crow: FANBOY! > "Hey Ranma." Darien said. > "Hey Darien." Ranma said. Michelle: Hey, Jude! Mike: Hey, you've got to hide your love away! Tom: Hey, Chief! Crow: (Chief) Hey, McCloud! > They seemed to know each other. Which was new to me, since so far all >the characters I have met had stayed only with the other characters from >there own story. "Are we still going to play some basketball tomorrow >night?" Darrien said. Crow: Let me guess. "Ya"É > "Ya, at 7:30 instead of 7:00, I got some work to do, OK." Ranma said. Tom: (Darien) Nien! > "Ya that's cool." Darien said. Mike: (Adam) AhemÉ No one's paying attention to *me*! > Reni came up to me and ask,"Hey, who are you?" Michelle: (Adam) I won't dignify that question with an answer. > I felt obligated to answer but I hoped I didn't we didn't need to go >over my story again. So I said, "My names Adam." > "I've never seen you before. So that makes you a stranger and I'm not >allowed to talk to strangers." Reni said. Crow: Trust me, Rini, they don't get much stranger than this guy. > "Its OK Reni. He's safe. We just meet." Serrina said. > "Well then I guess its OK. Nice to meet you, my names Reni." > "You know, I've never seen you before. Are you new to this area or >something?" Darien asked. Crow: (Adam) I'm an exchange student just in from wherever. Tom: (Ranma) Do you know Pat, then? > I guess I'm going to get a lot of this while I'm here. "I'm kinda not >from around here." I said. > "Ya, he's staying with me and my family at the dojo." Ranma added. >"But you would be surprised by how much he knows about the area." > "Ya he's from another world you might say." Lita said with a little >laughter in her voice. All: (weak laughter) Michelle: Kill usÉ > "Another world huh." Darien said. > I ( in my infinite wisdom) Crow: Shameless self-promotion number one! >added, "Ya Its kinda weird being here and >don't worry I'm not from the Negaverse or nothing." > "Then how do you know about it?" Darien said very forceful. Tom: No, he said, "Then how do you know about it?" not, "very forceful". > Opps. Once again I've said too much. One day I have to learn to shut >my mouth. "Well then you must be a spy!" Darien said. Mike: Finally, a faint glimmer of intelligence! Rest: (chanting) Kill him! Kill him! > He put Reni down and came towards me. He looked angry. Michelle: You better watch out, Tux-boy, or Adam'll write a nice little anti-fic! Rest: (chanting) Adam! Adam! Tom: You know, it's starting to sound like some sort of ritual in here. >All of a sudden >all the scouts and Ranma jumped in front of him. "No, he isn't a spy, but he >is from totally different world." Serrina said. "Let me explain." > She quickly told him my story. Luckily he calmed down. He then said, Crow: (Darien) If you write me as load who only throws roses, I'llÉ >"So you know of all this because we are characters in stories in your >world." > "Yes." I quickly added. This was getting repetative. Tom: Hey! That's our line! > "And you expect me to believe this?" Darien said. Mike: (Adam) If you expect to get out of this story alive. > Reni then spoke up and said, "Why don't you prove it, (whispering) use >the moon healing wand." Michelle: (Rini) Whatever that is. Crow: A subtle comment on the fact that Rini doesn't know that Serena has the wand. > "OK, lets do that." Darien said. > Darien and Ranma went talking away form the group for a little bit. >"We have to get Ranma out of here. He doesn't know about the scouts. Come, >follow me." Serrina said. Tom: (darkly) To your doom! > We left the big crowd and headed under one of the big tarp set ups >holding some of the equipment. When we got there Serrina pulled out the >healing wand and raised it over her head. " Wait a minute. Don't you need to >be Sailor Moon to use that?" I asked. Mike: (Serena) Damn! I knew that I forgot something! > Serrina said with a smile, "Actually no. You would be surprised how >much we can still do with out being in uniform." Michelle: Yeah, they can still help old ladies across the street, plant trees, go camping, and tie knots! > "OK then." I said. > She pointed the wand at me and said, "Moon healing power!" > These beams of light came out at me. It kind of tingled. Tom: Stuff happened. It was cool. >In about a >minute it stoped. "So am I from the Negaverse or not?" I said smugly. Michelle: (Serena) Yes. Tom: I always knew that. > "No, your clean." Serrina said. "Lets go tell Darien." > We walked back into the crowd and found Darien. He said, "Did he pass >the test?" Mike: (Serena) No, he scored in the sixteenth percentile. Crow: Still, it's better than she would do. > "Ya." Raye said > "Well then I'm sorry about jumping on your case and all, you can never >be to sure about the negaverse." Darien said. Michelle: (Darien) Especially when it's you. > Ranma looked confused about the whole thing. "Well then, now that we >got that all over with,what ever it was, lets try to enjoy the concert." Crow: It's just really hard to have fun when you're being followed by Narcs. > "I'm with you." I added with smile. > I felt a tug on my leg and looked down. Reni was pulling on my pant >leg. "Can I have a piggy back ride please?" Tom: Man, she *is* forward, isn't she? > you can't really say no with that little kid look of hers. "Sure you >can." I said. > I boosted her up on to my shoulders. "Thank you." She said. > The music from the band sounded nice and I was having a good time. >Reni was clapping and singing along. Mike: What's up with that, taking her to a Marilyn Manson concert? Crow: Well, she would fit in. >She had a billion questions to ask me, >just like any little kid. I talked to all the girls and just hung out for >the remainder of the concert. After the last song played every one clapped >and cheered. Shortly after the crowd started to disperse. Michelle: Amazingly enough, there was no plug for his favorite band. >It was about >11:30. We all walked back to the spot where Mr. Tendo and Mr. Saotome were >sitting down. The girls followed us. Crow: They're already following him around like lovesick lap-dogs. > When we got there we saw Genma, as a panda, leaning against a tree >looking very sick. Kasumi was propping Mr. Tendo up on her knee. It looked >like she was trying to wake him up or something. Ranma walked up and asked, >"what happened to them?" Mike: (Kasumi) They got into a bad bit of weed. > "Father and Mr.Saotome got into the saki again and they had too much >this time." Kasumi said. Mike: Close enoughÉ > "Its awful the way they cant control themselves some time." Nabiki >said trying too poor some tea down Genma's mouth. Michelle: Now he's insulting Kasumi's tea! Low blow! > Everyone nodded in agreement and we headed to shampoos. Crow: They needed a haircut and styling. Mike: Don't be silly. They just got new braids at the dinner table. >It was kind of >a long walk but it didn't matter. We talked the whole way. There were little >conversations inside the group. Ranma was talking to Darien. Serrina was >arguing with Raye. Amy was caring Reni. Mina struck up a conversation with >Nabiki and Akane. So I starter talking to Lita. She started off the >conversation by saying, "So what's it like coming to another world?" Mike: (Adam) It's givin' me gas! > Well, I was getting use to these types of questions now. I said, "Well >its very nerve racking at first. I mean imagine that you were just hanging >around your neighborhood when all of a sudden, you're in another world." > She said with a sympathetic look, "You must fell All: TIM-BER!! >pretty lonely with >out your family and friends." > "I'll be OK. It's no big deal." > "Do you have a girlfriend?" She asked. Michelle: (Adam) Yes, but who cares! All: (hum Macarena) > "No. Not recently." I answered. > "Well then this must be exitting for you. Tom: We only wish that he would leave. >I mean no one to worry about >back home. Being in a place far away from your normal life with people you >know, sort of." > "Yes this is very exitting. Tom: You mean you really are leaving? All: (cheer wildly) >Not knowing what will happen next. Living >in a world that you thought was total fantasy." I said. > "Mabey one day I will get a chance to see your world." > "Mabey." I replyed. Tom: (Adam) Mabey I wil get my spel-cheker repeared by then. > "How are you going to get back anyway?" > "I don't know." > "You don't know? Then you might never get back?" Michelle: (Lita) And you might be stuck here forever?! My God!! Now I see why we have to help you! > "Yea, I know but I hope I do. If I keep my hopes up and my eyes open, >I should be all right." Crow: (Adam, singing) I'll climb every molehill, ford every crick, follow ev'ry dirt road, 'till I'm out of this fic! > "I hope you do make it back." > "Who knows, anything is possible." > When we hit town Tom: Éit hurt! Thank you! >we only had to go a few blocks before we got to >Shampoo's restaurant. Mike: Wen did Shampoo get ownership of the place? Michelle: (Colonge) I'm not dead yet! >The Cat Cafe. I was surprised it was open this late. Crow: (Shampoo) Shampoo feel strange compulsion to stay open longer! >It started to rain a little just as we got in. We walked in when Shampoo >came out of the back to welcome us. "Welcome to Cat Cafe. Please take seat." >She said. Tom: (Ranma) Take it where? > Ranma walked to the front and said, "Hey Shampoo." > "Ranma!" She said with much excitement. "You come to see Shampoo." Michelle: (Shampoo) Shampoo ready to give good blowjob. Mike: Michelle! That was in extremely bad taste! Michelle: (slaps herself) Sorry, it slipped out. > Ranma said, "Well I actually just came for som-" > "Oh Ranma, you no need to lie to Shampoo. Shampoo know you come for >date." She said. Mike: (Shampoo) Now, which you like? December 10, 1829? Or maybe important date like September 25, 1066. > She jumped on him giving him a big hug. He flinched and tried to brake >free. Akane looked less than happy. "Hey, get off me." Ranma yelled. Crow: (Ranma) Rape! Rape! > "What do you think your doing with Shampoo, Ranma!" Akane said, as a >blue flame started to grow around her. Tom: (ala Monty Python) Burn the witch! Burn her! > "Hey its not my fault. She's the one all over me." Ranma said. > Akane ran to the back kitchen, grabbed a tea kettle on the stove and >ran towards Ranma with a mean look on her face. She lifted the pot over her >head and broke it over Ranmas. Shampoo flew off and he went down like a >rock. Unfortunately for Ranma the pot, Mike: (Jusyenko guide) Oh, I so sorry. You fall in Spring of Drowned Teapot. Very tragic story. Crow: Drop it. >I guess, wasn't on the stove for too >long, since the water in side was still cold. Michelle: Luckily, the flame around Akane had heated the teapot to the boiling point. >Akane backed off and started >to calm down. Ranma got up in kind of a daze, as a girl. Shampoo took one >look at him/her Crow: Must... make... comment... about... Sheep Sheep and pronouns! >and said, "Female Ranma, I kill you!" Crow: Man, talk about mood swings. Tom: It must be her time of the month. > Shampoo puts on a big red rain coat and pulls a big lantern out of her >hair Mike: She's got a 70's 'do! Michelle: Huh? Mike: You know, a tower of hair large enough to fit anything in. Michelle: You mean like Marge Simpson? Mike: yeah. >and chases Ranma out in to the rain. "Come back to Shampoo!" She said. > We just stood there and stared out the door as they went down the >street. A car came by and almost hit Ranma. Crow: (car driver) Oh, man! That was close! I thought he was Adam! >It stopped short and the man >inside started honking and screaming at him. Shampoo took a swing at him as >he jumped the car. Tom: A new olympic event, the car hurdles. >She missed and put the lantern through the roof of the >car and hits the guy driving. "I'm sorry about her. Sometimes she just can't >control herself." A voice said from behind us. Mike: Magic Voice is making just too many cameos that are just too wrong in just too many ways! Magic voice: Said just right, Mike. > We all turned around and saw a little old woman holding a big cane >standing on the counter. It was Cologne. "I'm sorry about the rudeness of my >grandaughter. Please sit down." Cologne said. Michelle: (Colonge) Did I mention that I'm sorry? Well I am. > We walked over to the dinning room and took two tables by a window. We >could still see Ranma and Shampoo running around in the rain. Crow: (Ranma, singing) I'm ruuuning in the rain! Just ruuuuning in the rain! >A little >dinner theater. Darien, Reni, Serrina, and Akane sat at one table. While >Amy, Mina, Lita, and Nabiki sat at the other one. I pulled up a chair >between Nabiki and Lita. > The place was pretty dead, Tom: How did they stumble into Resident Evil 2? >I guess this was because it was half an >hour from closing. Actually there was only two other people in the >restaurant besides us. They were sitting by the grill near the front. I >recognized who they were. It was Grash and Liza from the 'Project A-ko, vs. >the Universe' stories. You really couldn't miss them since Grash had that >bounty hunter look, beat up and all, Mike: Yeah, that bounty hunter look has become sort of a standard in anime. >and Lizza with her chest that took up >half the table. They were hard to miss. > Cologne came over and gave us some menu's. We quickly looked over them >and ordered. Crow: I'll have the rat cake, and my friends will have the snake sorbet. >Not anyone really had a meal just snacks or drinks. I just had >a soda. It was quiet and no one was talking so I decided to start a >conversation. "Lita, I was wondering what do you think of this Ranma >situation," I said. Tom: (Lita) We've gotta crush him and crush him hard! > "What Ranma situation?" She asked. > "The situation about Ranma and Akane not admitting that they really do >love each other. Mike: Last time on, "All My Senshi"É >That they are still running around denying they have any >feelings for each other and if you bring it up they will get into a huge >argument and hit you with something." I said. Michelle: Yeah, they did it to him, and look at what happened to him! > "Yea I know what you mean. But I think it's just a phase they are >going through. They will get over it. You just got to give them time." Lita >said. Crow: (Adam) I'll give it ten secondsÉ > Just then two wet cats come running through the door. Tom: Garfield and Nermal, NO!!! Mike: Is nothing sacred? >It was Luna and >Atrimus. Tom: Man, how many cats does Serena have? Crow: Let's see here, there's Luna, Artemis, Atriums, and Atrimus. Michelle: Next up: Ulna, Anul, and Nula. >They came up and jumped on Serrina's table. "We've been looking >everywhere for you." Luna said. > "Yea, we looked in the park and you were not there. Its just pure luck >that we saw your friends outside playing around." Atriums said. > I thought what she said was funny, playing around, like she was >pretending to kill him. Tom: Has anybody thought to help him maybe? >"We left the park and came here for something to >eat." Raye said. Mike: (Raye) Éand to watch Ranma get his ass kicked! > "Well at least we found you. Now who is this(staring at me)? I have >never seen him around here before." Luna said. Tom: (Lita) What are you talking about? There's no one here but us. Crow: (whistles Twilight Zone theme) Mike: Is Adam supposed to know that the cats can talk? > If I had five yen for every time I heard that today, I would be a rich >man. Tom: So sixty yen is considered rich? >I was about to tell my story again when Ranma came running in with >Shampoo right on his tale. Michelle: (Ranma) Hey! Get off my story book! >He ran straight for the kitchen. Shampoo >followed. I herd a crash, then a splash, and then it went quite. A couple of >minutes later Michelle: Five minutes to be exactÉ >Ranma walked out, as guy, Shampoo was nowhere to be seen. He >walked over, (still a little wet) grabbed a chair, Crow: Éand bashed it over Adam's head! >and sat down next to >Akane. I said, "what happened to Shampoo?" > Ranma smiled and said, "Don't worry about her she's cooling of. Tom: (Dark laughter) Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha! >Hey, >old goul. Come here for a second." > Cologne came over to where Ranma was sitting. "What is it son-in-law?" Mike: (Cologne) Oops! Time's up! I don't care any more! Did I mention that I'm sorry? > "I Locked Shampoo in the big freezer. Can you let her out when we >leave." Michelle: (Cologne) Why? First, she takes my store. Then, she makes me appologize for no reason. By the way, I'm sorry. > "Sure thing, I think she needs to cool off for awile anyway." You >could hear the muffled screams from the freezer but we just ignored them. We >sat there and talked for over an hour. Crow: Even though the store had been a half an hour away from closing. Mike: Details, details, detailsÉ >It was a fun night but it was getting >late, so we left the restaurant. Mike: Only, to find that we had been locked in! >I picked up Reni, Who a sleep, and gave her >to Darien. We were heading home when Lita said," tomorrow we should start >looking for a way to get you home." Michelle: (Lita) Éor at least another way to get you out of our hair. > "Or at least find out how I got here." I said. > "Yea, we'll start that tomorrow. All of us." > Everyone gave a nodd yes. Even Reni who was in a sleep daze. Tom: SLEEP!!! >The rain >stopped and the clouds parted. It was bueatiful morning. Crow: So, the store closes in the middle of the day. >I was tierd and >glad to get back to the Dojo.
