(The Hunters that is), Will our hero's Persevere? Find out In todays Episode of "Werewolf Claws & Vampire Fangs" Ranma wrinkled his nose as a stench assaulted it "Wolves Bane huh?" he asked as his staff appeared in his hand "Your human." he said twirling the staff around as a blast of fire shot at him. When they let up he was yawning. He jumped to the fence top grinning "Come on boys! Lets take this on the road!" he laughed as he started hopping away. The men blinked at him then looked at Akane with her arms crossed "Go on, I'm not fighting you." she said turning away. They blinked then charged off after Ranma. Ranma looked up wincing as he landed, the sun was almost set. He turned and faced the men "Time to decide humans, are you going to live, or are they never to find your bodies?" he demanded twirling the staff. They waited silently priming the charges on their flame throwers. As the sun set Ranma winced feeling the change happen and dodged as they suddenly fired. When she came up on the other side of them, she was grinning "Come on guys! You can take one little girl right?!" she demanded of them. "A beast of the foulest nature." one of them muttered then moved back as she tossed the staff into the air. "How about a little light?" she asked as first one sword, then another appeared in her hands "The Members of My family have been were hunters for almost three thousand years, if you think a few pansy fang hunters are going to take me your wrong." she stated as blue light poured off her "You fang hunters don't know what its like to hunt a dangerious animal, I hunted vamps a little, they lacked challenge. Too easy." she said as she darted forward, zig zagging around their fire and came out behind them. She grinned as they lost pressure on their tanks "What? Your new toys not as reliable as a good old sword?" she chuckled as first one then all of them screamed as their tanks exploded. She shook her head "This is too easy." Ranma walked back to the dojo and hopped to the top of the gate and grinned down at Soun and Genma standing in it "Do you think the boy was killed this time?" Soun asked. Genma shook his head "No, I trained him to well for my own damned good, he won't have a scratch and they'll demand medical pay and refuse to go after him again." he muttered bitterly. Ranma jerked "I still say this is wrong Saotome. hes the future of our school." Soun said softly reproving. Genma snorted "Lets face it Tendo, the school is finished." The two men looked up as they heard a sniff and saw Ranma sitting up there looking down at them, blood red tears making trails down her face. She looked at them for a minute before turning away and jumping into the yard and running into the house. They looked at each other "Shit." Ranma had her bag packed and was almost out the door before Kasumi noticed her. "Oh my!" she exclaimed dropping the glass plate she was carrying. Everyone came into the hall and blinked at Ranmas crying face, anger and hurt set deep into it. Ranma wiped her face "If anyone needs me, I'll be where I'm wanted." she snarled whirling about and marching out the door Akane and Nodoka moved in front of her as Ryoga and Shampoo grabbed her "Why are you leaving?!" Nodoka exclaimed. Ranma shrugged the two off. "I just killed five men that didn't need to die. When I got back to the dojo, I was about to jump off the gate when I heard someone talking." she looked at the two fathers standing in the doorway, fear on their faces "I was about to greet Pop and Mister Tendo when I figured out they were talking about me, and those men that showed up." her chin quivered a little "So the anything goes school is dead is it pop? If I didn't know any better, I'd say from what I heard that those men were here because you brought them. Saying such things like 'I trained him too well for my own damned good.' So what did you promise them pop? What ever they could take off my body?" she snarled shakily. Ranma pulled away from Ryogas comforting hand "Like I said. I'll be where I'm wanted." After Ranma had ran out of the gate, with Ryoga and Shampoo following, the two fathers were suddenly the brunt of four very angry gazes. "Genma you selfish, jealous bastard!!" Nodoka screamed at him. "You couldn't stand that he had come to me after learning everything you knew!" she said shaking a fist at him. She took off her wedding ring and threw it at him. Suddenly a breeze passed them and Genma was being held on the ceiling by a very pissed off Dracorian. "Your the one that hurt that sweet child!?!" he roared at him. Genma passed out in fear, a telltale stain spreading over his pants. Nodoka took his arm "Please! He's not worth it! He's just a vain insignificent fool! Is Ranma alright?" she asked. he tossed the man away like a rag doll "I had to put her to sleep! she was crying out the blood faster then I could get her to drink it! A vampire can die from too much crying!!" he shouted at Genma. Akane took his other arm "We should get back to her." Akane sat down next to the bed Ranma was on and touched her face, seeing how pale she was. Ranma woke up and looked at him before falling into his arms "Why? Why did he do it?" she wailed. Akane held her tightly. "He's a fool Ranma." Nodoka said walking into the room with the old count on her heels. "Ranma please drink this." he said handing her a large beer glass of blood. She took it and downed it hungrily "Thank you." she said softly then looked at him "Need any room mates?" He blinked then chuckled "I would be delighted to have you stay with me, you'll never have want of friends and good times, we're all family here." Ranma smiled softly "Thanks. Mom, what is your maiden name?" Nodoka blinked at her "Dirocu." Dracorian nodded recognizing the name "Ah, I know the family! Your a closer relative then I thought!" he chuckled. They blinked at him "The Dirocu clan was started by one of my sisters." he said smiling. Nodoka blinked at him "How long ago was this?" she exclaimed. He smiled "Oh a long time ago. Nearly three thousand years ago." he said laying a kind hand on her shoulder. She smiled at him and Ranma blinked seeing a slight blush on her face. Akane kissed Ranma making her forget the world for a few minutes. She sighed softly when it was over and smiled "Any ideas on our wedding?" Ranma sat looking at the workmen setting a glass panel into the newly reconstructed frame "I thought this place was torched?" Ryoga asked sitting dowm with her. She nodded "It was. Burned to the ground. And that was six hours ago." she murmured admiring "Hey look!" Akane whispered pointing to the ballroom floor. Ranma looked and smiled as she saw her mother and Dracorian dancing slowly to the music. Akane took Ranmas hand and pulled her out on the dance floor "Akane! I'm not exactly dressed for dancing!" she protested, as her sword clinked against the back plate of her armor, Ranma caught a look of him in the moon light and felt warmth spread through her belly and wetness start to seep from her. She pressed herself into him and let him lead. Ranma closed her eyes and forgot everything but his breathing and warmth. When the song was over Akane stopped dancing reluctantly. When Ranma started figiting he looked down at her "What?" she looked around and saw only her mother and friend "Get me to a bed, I feel like I'm going to die if I don't have you at least really soon!" she said pleadingly. Dracorian shook beside them as he tried to keep from laughing "You can use.... the bedroom you were in after the rest arrived." he said laughter escaping slightly. Ranma nodded kissing both him and her mother before grabbing Akanes hand and dashed off. Dracorian and Nodoka watched after the retreating pair "Can someone blush do to their toes?" he asked softly. Nodoka laughed softly "If anyone it was Ranma just then." Akane caught his balance once Ranma let him go and was about to look around when he noticed Ranma had stripped off her clothes, but left on her armor "What do you think? Do I look good or what?" she purred. He winced popping loose the straps around his hips "pain..." he gasped. Ranma grinned taking his hand and pressed it to something warm, and very wet "Akane... please... I need it!" she moaned holding his hand in a death grip. He slid a finger into her and she cried out cumming into his hand. Akane pulled his hand away and started licking it as she franticly started stripping him and tossing her armor aside. Akane groaned as he finished and saw Ranma suck his manhood into her mouth, milking him as only a vampire could. When he came Ranma didn't miss a beat and continued to bob her head as she greedily drank the thick liquid down. Ranma yelped as Akane roughly picked her up and pinned her on her stomach with her ass hanging off the bed. She screamed as he pressed into her. She layed her head on the bed and cried every time he thrust home, letting him control their play. Akane held onto Ranma's arms as he pounded her ass into the bed hard, loving the Sounds she was making as he continually invaded her body, plunging as deep as he could get before almost pulling out then slamming back in. Ranma reared up and howled her orgasm into the night as she clamped down hard. He winced closing his eyes as he started cumming on his next inward thrust, spraying his seed deep into her as he weakened and was only able to half heartedly sink into her twice before slumping on top of her. Ranma pulled herself up onto the bed, taking Akane with her, before colapsing into the sheets. Ranma woke up groaning she opened her eyes and looked sleepily as Akanes breasts. Ranma thought to herself. She reached down and rubbed gently at her well please womanhood. She rumbled softly to herself in contentment, nothing could be wrong with her.... Akane woke up hearing Ranma scream. She jumped not being able to see and hit the lights. She blinked at her love, then blinked again seeing the red hair "You didn't change back!?" Everyone still awake in the ballroom looked up and stared pop eyed at Ranmas pale breasts as she ran out of the back in only boxers "Mom!" she yelled running over to her breathless, clutching at her "ididn'tchangeback!Akanechangedbackandididn't." she said in a rush, panicked as hell. Akane wrapped a cloak about her "Your not dressed!" she said softly. Ranma bit her lip "I'm so hungry." she said touching her side wincing. Dracorian handed her a large glass of b positive "Who is your local expert on the curses?" They heard a meow and Ranma jumped into his arms afraid as Shampoo jumped up on the counter. Ranma clutched at him as she looked at the cat in terror. Akane gasped seeing Ranmas eyes blank "No Ranma!" she yelled but was answered by a meow. Ranma bounced out of the vampires arms and sat lightly on the head of a bottle before jumping to Akanes shoulder purring. everyone facefaulted but Akane and the two animals. Akane petted her mate as she jumped into the lap Akane made for her "Why did you go neko Ranma?" she asked softly. Neko Ranma meowed at her happily and settled down for a nap. "Mind sharing Akane?" Nodoka asked. Akane sighed "It's a powerful fighting style Genma 'trained' Ranma in. It's called the Neko-Ken, and it can't be beaten by anything." she said and neko Ranma agreed playing with her hand "The training consists of wrapping the one to be trained in fish sausage and tossing them into a pit of starving cats, repeat until they can free themselves. The style was banned because one out of one hundred trained in it survived." she said handing Nodoka the manual, she had kept it hidden from Genma. Nodoka looked through the japanese and what she could read of the chinese and paled almost clear "This isn't training!! It's torture!" she yelled back Ranma burbled curiously at her and Nodoka rubbed her head until she was soothed "Here's a disclaimer 'WARNING, training banned do to severe mental damage and insanity that may result. If the subject lives!?!' What monster would do this to their own child!?!" Dracorian yelled after looking through itthen sat down to read the whole thing. "Well this is rather interesting, it seems the mental scarring allows the person to be releived of the checks and blocks they place on themselves, so they will fight until no enemies live or they are calmed." Ranma perked up and sniffed the air, she rumbled nervously as she looked at the door. she hopped over Akane and trotted to the door. she swiped at it and it turned to slivers of wood to revail Ukyo and Moouse about to knock on the door "Meow!" The two jumped "Cat fist!!" they yelped jumping back. Ranma followed them a curious sound to her voice. She looked to the left and hissed angrily, her hair standing up "What monster is this?!" a man's voice said before Ranma lept roaring in challange. Akane ran to the door and followed as Nodoka tried to keep from throwing up from what she caught sight of. "Good god Ranma!" she cried as the screams of dying men faded. Nodoka and the two hunters moved into the bar as Akane came back looking sick as she carried a bloody Ranma. She looked up and meowed happily before starting to clean her blood soaked hands. Akane looked at Ukyo and Moouse "Will you help me bury the bodies? from the equipment they had I'd say they were of your profession." she said after wiping the blood off her arms. All the people around the two moved back afraid and Ranma hissed warningly, her fangs looking extra sharp. They nodded "Alright! Sure, as long as she stays calm!" Moouse said. Ryoga hopped up on the bar and snorted at Ranma softly. She looked at him and jumped up with him. She sniffed him slightly then licked his ear before laying down humming contented. Akane sighed "At least he likes Ryoga now." she said before taking a shovel from one of the helpful vampires. After about an hour Ranma woke up and yelled seeing the blood caked all over her body "What the hell happened!?!" she yelled. Nodoka smiled softly holding up the manual. Ranma paled "I didn't kill anyone did I?" she asked softly. Akane came back in and set down the shovel, looking as worn out as Moouse and Ukyo looked ready to throw up "I never thought 'split a hair' was anything but a saying." Moouse said shakily as he exepted the drink form a sympathetic waitress. Ranma looked down "Who was it?" she asked softly. "No one we know, but it looks like they came for serious business." Ukyo said holding up a strange looking crossbow "I don't even have one of these!" she said Ranma took it "Masters bane?" she asked seeing the slots for five shots "They had five of them, thats the only one you didn't break. Don't worry, I unloaded it into the ground. Thing packs a punch." she said rubbing he sore shoulder. One of the women walked over nervously "W-want me to look at your arm? I'm a doctor." she said looking fearfully at the two of them. She looked at Ranma then nodded when she smiled. "Mild sprain, it takes a lot of strength to fire one of those." she said softly. Ukyo nodded "Ya, and quite deadly, the only hunter I met that used one died of old age. Ranmas the only one to ever beat one." Ranma snorted "Not exactly beat it Ukyo, four out of five still leaves the one that was in my chest." she called coming back out of the back hall drying her hair. She blinked when half the room clapped at her. Ranma blinked touching her hair, still down "I think we should talk to Cologne about my not changing back, she's always coming up with some new way to use my curse against me." she winced holding her side "Is there anything to eat?" Dracorian grinned at her as he handed her another large glass of blood. He watched her down it and offered to refill it "Why am I so hungry?" she asked looking as the black covers on the windows. "You'll figure it out." he chuckled. Ranma looked at him for a minute then her sword flashed into her hand. She looked at him bluntly then at the blade "I'm what!?!" Ranma sank the blade into the counter "Is this joker telling the truth?" she demanded. He smirked "And what did the offending weapon say?" She flicked her rist and the sword hopped into his hands. She blinked "Yes, the joker is is correct, congratulations." he said laughing. The sword disappearred in a flash of light "But I don't want to be pregnant! I'm not married!" she protested. Akane face faulted with Moouse and Ukyo. Ryoga and Shampoo laughed at her as Nodoka hugged her happily "My dear! Oh I'm so happy!" she said smiling happily "But I wanted to be married first..." she wimpered upset. Nodoka blinked as Ranma started crying "Whats wrong?" she asked. Ranma closed her eyes "I wanted an honorable wedding. Not an obligatory one." Akane jumped up protesting "Are you saying I wouldn't marry you?! Like I didn't want to!" she said upset. Ranma looked at her "I know you do, but.... I wanted... I didn't want to be forced into it!" Akane blinked them smirked "No one forced you Ranma. If anything you dragged me into the room." Nodoka looked scolding "That's not helping Akane. Ranma, you love each other so its not forced, and Dracorian and I were talking, he has everything ready so we were going to suggest tonight for the first wedding." she said softly. Ranma looked up at her and smiled as tears burst from her eyes. "Oh mother..." she sobbed in her lap, her shoulders shaking like a leaf "I've been so alone.... everyone I knew was always so judgemental, so cruel about turning their backs on me everytime I tried to make a decision on my own." "The only thing close to friendship, or even love, I got from Kasumi. She was the only one that didn't judge me until I explained it, everyone else was always ready to hit me or yell at me, if I was still human and this happened, pop would try to kill me as the rest treated me like something disgusting before turning away from me. Even though I was surrounded by friends I was more alone then I was when pop was the only one to mock me." She looked at Akane sniffing "The only time I felt wanted was when Akane and I were fighting because the only time pop showed he loved me was when he was beating me up. The only time he would smile at me was when I had mastered some new fighting style, or beat him in a fight. I didn't even know what love was until you showed up, up until then it was a strange feeling I got when Kasumi smiled at me, and on rarer occations, when Akane smiled at me." Nodoka held her babbling daughter, her anger and sadness growing with every word. When Ranma stopped talking she continued to hold her, blinking at the tears in her own eyes. She closed her eyes and started softly singing a song to sooth Ranmas sadness. After a while Ranma sighed falling asleep, feeling safer then she ever had in her life. Looking like the bust of a vengeful god Dracorian helped her gently disengage Ranma and carry her back to the bedroom. "I swear I'm going to make that man pay!!" Nodoka snarled as she stomped back into the ballroom. "Aye, I've heard of jackals that give more love to their children." the old count said, his knuckles white. Suddenly Nodoka was in his arm weeping herself. "How could he do it? As if taking her away from me wasn't enough!" she cried. He blinked a few times then hugged her soothingly, uncomfortably aware of her body. She blinked then looked at him, a small blush on her face. "It's been so long... I didn't think that still worked." he whispered blushing himself. Akane couldn't help but giggle at the two before tapping Nodoka on the arm "Want to acompany me back to the dojo? I want to get more then the change of clothes I have here, as well as everything Ranma didn't take with her on her mad dash." Akane said grinning at the two. Nodoka looked at her for a minute then reluctantly pulled away from him. Akane bounced out of the building dragging a startled Nodoka behind her. As the two were going the aged count blinked hearing a chuckle beside him. He blinked seeing Ranma "Don't fight it, it'll only bring the two of you sadness and pain." she murmured to him. He looked at her "But would she have me?" Akane let go of her mother in law, to be, as they got half way from the club "So what are you going to do?" she asked holding her arm. Nodoka smiled at her "How do you mean dear?" Akane grinned "I saw the way the two of you reacted! It's the same as when Ranma and I first held each other after I was turned. Vampires seem to know right off when a person they can love forever touches them. Both of you felt it." Nodoka bit her lip "Why would he want someone so young? And what about Genma?" she asked worried. Akane snorted scornfully "Til death do you part auntie. So that fool isn't a problem. And you felt his reaction." she said jabbing her in the side. Nodoka blushed, not saying anything. Kasumi looked up and blinked at Akane and Nodoka, both of them had their swords slung over their shoulders openly. She blinked at their stony neutral faces. "Oh my." Nabiki said spying them. Kasumi blinked. Akane walked down the hall with Nodoka beside her, not even glancing into the living room at the two men there. As they walked up the stairs the two came out into the hall and watched them first go to Akanes room then Ranmas. Kasumi had her hands over her mouth when the two came back down carrying a few of Ryogas backpacks stuffed full of their belongings, Nodoka had covered her sword with its normal silk rap. "Your moving out?" she gasped. Akane nodded stonily as Nodoka tried her best to not look at Genma. Soun grabbed his daughter "You can't leave!!" he whined. Akane sighed looking at him "Ranma and I are going to be married tonight dad. His girl form to my male form. In a year we'll perform another wedding, in our normal forms." she said distantly. Everyone blinked at her as Nodoka nodded sharply "They are to be married under my maiden name, Ranma has renounced the Saotome name and taken mine, now that I'm not married anymore." she said finally looking at Genma, she looked away quickly as rage spread through her. "You.. you can't do that! it takes both to agree to a divorce!!" Genma exclaimed. Nodoka bared her teeth and let a little of the anger she felt show before covering it "Til death do us part Genma, I never thought being ripped apart by werewolves would make me thankful. No, please me to no end!" she yelled. She fought hard to collect herself before going on "If I hadn't died Genma saotome, I would have killed you myself to be rid of your evil." she said looking at Soun instead of Genma. He gulped "Not only did you deny my child and myself each other, you tortured him, almost killing him in many cases, turned him into a basket case around cats, and a cold blooded killer when the cat fist comes out." she said baring her teeth again. "You mean..." Soun gasped. Akane nodded looking down "Shampoo got to close to her when she was excremely upset, as shes been since leaving here, and went into the fist. She stayed pretty calm until another group of self rightious humans showed up to burn the club.... She didn't leave much to bury." she said, her mask of stone starting to slip from the white hot rage she felt. "Why are you calling him a she?" "And why a year?" her sisters asked. Akane shook them off "Ranma didn't change back this morning, I would tell you the good news but I don't want to hear Genma bleeting about it." everyone blinked and Nodoka grinned "Ranmas pregnant." After everyone had gotten up she grinned happily at the tendos "As far as we can tell, the pregnancy has locked her in her female form, the count is going to perform the wedding, as Akanes family your invited, but sadly I'm the only family on Ranmas side." she said sighing. "Since father was killed I'm the last of our clan, well not really, now Ranma and Akane can carry on our ancestral duty to protect mankind from the were races." "Who's name are you taking?" Genma asked dangerously. The fire in Akanes eyes burned hotter then his "Dirocu, or would you rather we take the name of Ranmas uncle?" she asked. He blinked "Who is that? Ranma has no uncles." Nodoka smirked "Uncle is the grand daddy of all our family, through him we have thousands of aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters." "So who is this patriarch of your family." Genma said snidely. "Count Dracorian. of the house Dracula of course." Ranma said walking into the house, everyone blinked seeing her in full armor and, suprise! Two swords and a staff. she looked at them neutrally "Uncle dracula offered us his name, since it was his sister that started moms family, but we went with the Dirocu clans name and duty." Nodoka gapped at her "How can you carry more then three of the enchanted items? even the most powerful of the dracula clan could only hold three!" she said walking over. Ranma grinned as the sword slipped from the scabbards and floated in front of her "This one I am caretaker of mother, the way you were of mine. I can easily carry four or even five, but its not my blade." she said touching her belly. Akane hugged her smiling "I thought you didn't want to come?" Ranma shocked everyone by kissing her deeply "It's not worth hiding myself away, or killing him. He's just a man. I'll not waste my time on him." instead of exceptance she found anger in Akanes face. "Like hell!" she yelled. Ranma blinked, her chin wavering slightly. "Don't yell at me." she said softly. Akane hugged her reasuringly and she brightened softly. "No way in hell am I going to just let him get away with what he did to you." she snarled looking at Genma. Ranma blinked frowning "You promised." she hissed. Akane glared at her "So? He has to be punished!" she yelled. Ranma looked away "I think thats already been done Akane, the Saotome school will die with him. the anything goes school won't though, I'm going to reshape it, make it into a real fighting style." she said to mister tendo. "The origenal school is flawed, it puts you at a disadvantage against real fighters with real weapons, its a very powerful style, but its limited. The Dirocu school of martial arts will fix that. Open handed fighting is one of its parts, but we will also teach fighting with every type of weapon, as well as battle magicks." Akane grinned "I like it... but I still think he should get his ass kicked." she said looking at an angry Genma "How dare you think you can steal the saotome schools secrets and pass them off as your own!?!" he yelled. Ranma ignored him as Nodoka and Akane theatened him "She has the right to rip your bones out and feed then to the dogs!" Nodoka yelled. "Every time I hear her scream her head off I want to rip yours off!" she roared. Ranma jumped as if she had hit her and everyone froze "What?" Nodoka asked. Akane ignored the pleading look Ranma gave her "Ever since Ranma first arrived almost like clockwork, he would scream his head off for a few minutes while asleep, we learned to ignore it, figured it was like snoring." she said and the others nodded. She looked at her family and Nodoka "When Ranma and I first slept together I woke up hearing her mumbling. She said things like 'I don't want to learn this' or 'it hurts, please stop' or just 'let me out' then she starts screaming and crying hystarically about cats claws and sharp teeth! I had to hit her to wake her up. I was scared out of my mind, so I promised not to tell, but I don't care! Your evil is compounded by keeping it hidden." "Evil!? How is it evil? I followed the manual perfectly!" he protested. Akane itched to cut him down. "How could you do that?!" Kasumi demanded angrily. Everyone blinked at her then goggled as she slapped Genma before walking back into the kitchen. Everyone but Genma was looking after her, Genma was on the floor "Who knew she could hit so hard?" he groaned. Ranma sat out in the yard oiling her blade lovingly as the girls talked in the kitchen. "don't bother me Genma. I haven't had lunch yet and I would dearly love seeing you burst into flames." she growled as he started towards her. "I'm sorry Ranma." he said softly. "I'm not angry about the training pop, I'm hurt. You tried to have me killed." she said softly. She held the blade up and blue light gathered near the tip and started to circle about it. "I trusted you. I thought you would love me because I was your child. But I know now the only things you love are yourself and things you want. I don't fit into that group, I don't think I ever did." she murmured softly as the light flared and a bucket of water hit Genma. "Leave her alone!" Akane yelled tossing the bucket away. Ranma went back to cleaning her sword. "What did he want?" she asked when he had left. "To apologize." Akane growled as she sat down next to her to work on her sword. "So what spell were you working?" she asked remembering the reason she had tossed the water "A little summoning spell." she said grinning. Akane looked at her "What did you summon?" she asked. Ranma grinned sliding her sword home in its case "My true love." she said pushing her on her back and started kissing her. Akane giggled as the passion in her kisses grew with the setting of the sun. Ranma grinned down at him as her mate stiffened between her legs. "It's true, its a silly little spell that puts an urge on your love to find you as fast as they can." she murmured kissing him again. He hugged her "I knew there was a reason." "I know you can't help doing it children, but the bride isn't supposed to sleep with the husband until after the wedding." a deeply amused voice on the wall above then chuckled. Ranma looked up and grinned "Uncle!" she said happy to see him. He jumped down and hugged her before handing her a sports bottle "Thought you might be hungry." he murmured as he helped Akane up. Ranma smiled as she took a drink. As the two men walked into the house Ranma followed sucking on the bottle happily. Akane introduced Soun to Dracorian "I am honored to meet you sir, your son speaks highly of you, daughter, excuse me." he said smiling. Soun shook his hand "So your a count huh?" he asked calmly. Dracorian shook his head laughing "No, castle dracula was destroyed back when gunpowder was invented, by that time I was living in the new world with one of my brothers." "My sister Kimiko came to japan and started the Dirocu blood line, her mate had been killed by weres and she devoted her life to ridding the world of them. So she came here where the sword skills were far better then hers. She married a travelling samurai and learned from him." he said smiling at Nodoka. "I believe she had eight children by him. I don't know for sure, but I heard she had married back into the family about a thousand years later to strengthen the blood in her desendence. I heard she had been killed after having her fifth child. She gave her life protecting her family from a horde of weres." he said softly as he looked at her face "You look a lot like her." Soun big sweated "K-Kimiko?" he stuttered. Nodoka looked at him "Didn't you know? She was a distant cousin of mine." she said softly. He looked down "I had forgotten." Ranma and Akane looked at each other "You mean we're related?!" they said together then Ranma shrugged "Oh well." Soun face faulted as the two kissed. Nabiki smirked "I wonder what their kids will look like?" she asked as the two face faulted. Ranma glared at her "Shut up!!" she yelled angry. Akane chuckled pulling her into his arms and caught her attention by kissing her. Ranma blinked at her mother when she took her arm and pulled her off Akanes exciting tongue "We need to get you fitted dear." she said as she slung her pack. Ranma nodded grabbing one of Akanes loads then blinked as Dracorian took it "I may be old fashioned dear but a man can not let a lady carry heavy loads while his back is unencumbered." he said taking Nodokas as well. Both of them frowned at him as he and Akane jumped to the top of the fence and were away. "I don't know if I should be flattered or insulted." Ranma muttered. Nodoka laughed softly as the two left, followed by everyone else. Soun blinked at his son as he and Dracorian polished the armor plates of the armor Dracorian begged him to wear "This armor belonged to the first count of Dracula! He was about to join a battle against one of the larger were clans when his mate stopped him and cast a spell on his armor 'I pray thee,' she said 'I had an omen of thy death this eve.' she ran to the archmage in the castle and demanded he marry them like the humans. 'My lord will die today if not bonded by spirit to his love. Please, do this for me.' she pleaded with him as the gates shook from the force of the weres hammering at it. He wedded the two using a soul splicer spell not often used. When the two were joined the armor glowed brightly and his love disappeared." "After the battle was over, she was found in their bed chambers, severely beaten, every bruise she wore was the very same as he had gained in the battle, in this, the force of the blows were turned from killing blows into annoying bruises. He was so horrified by it that he cast the armor from him in anger, he realized that the spell she had cast upon him transfered most of the damage he took in battle to her. Thus, his life was saved. After she was healthy enough she cast another spell on the armor, making it so that any wound taken will forever be cleaved in half, this time, though, the damage wasn't placed on an innocent!" He chuckled seeing the looks on their faces "The spell was crude, she had started working on it the minute she woke the next day, but instead of asking him to stay and wait for the spell to be completed, she formed it thus out of love so powerful she could not care about herself, as long as he lived. Ever since then, the counts were married in the armor, because, the spells forbid those with anything less then true love to be wed while wearing it." he fastened the last buckle. "Hundreds of years later an archmage arched an eye brow at the armor and with a chuckle, crafted a suit of bridal armor! It does the same thing as this suit, except where this one pulls the loves together and pushes away, that one... either disgusts her or... arouses her. So if the two are not ment to be together he will not be able to get near her and she will feel sick when he gets close." He grinned "But if you are truly in love you will not be able to stay away from her while wearing it, and she... is going to want to get very close." he said winking at him. Akane blushed "I don't know, what if it pushes her away?" he asked nervously. "Do you love her with all your heart?" Dracorian asked. Akane nodded "Then it won't." Ranma was pacing "I think I'm going to be sick." she said nervously. Nodoka stopped her long enough to press a squeeze bottle straw into her mouth. Ranma sucked on it automaticly while Nodoka smiled at her "Your just nervous dear, and this pacing isn't doing you any good." she murmured. Ranma finished the bottle and thanked her "I know mom, it's just..." she sat down and put her hands between her legs "I feel so horny." After Nodoka, and Kasumi who had been straightening the blue bow in her hair, got up off the floor she bit her lip "I don't know why! I feel like we've been rubbing each other for hours and I keep expecting him to walk in naked." she groaned. Nodoka blinked and saw that she had a hand under the strip of does skin that covered her crotch. Nodoka blushed as sweat started to bead on her forhead. Ranma bit off a wimper then slumped panting as she came. Nodoka started to say something when the silver shoulder plates started glowing. She blinked at it as the doe skin stips that make up half the revailing armor turned bright red. Ranma layed back panting slightly "I couldn't help it." Akane blinked as the plate mail breast plate turned bright red as well as the rest of the front plates. He arched an eye brow at the pleased look on Dracorian's face "Should I ask?"
