Light that appears in the ceiling by touching the button on the wall!" Dracon marveled turning the lights on and off. Nodoka snorted as she sipped from her glass then blinked at some of the paintings on the wall. "Nice likenesses of you." she murmured looking at them then reading the plates "Count Dracula of Dracula, built the first castle Dracula three years before the great battle of the silver wolf. Date of death, in the year: 12,193 before the christian dating system." she murmured and he grinned coming over to them "What is the one all in black here? No it looks like a big splotch of red." he said looking at the tapastry before Dracorians "Vlad Tepiss, butcher of Transylvania?!?! Ulitmately responseable for the peasant uprising that resulted in the torching of castle Dracula, and murderer of thousands of humans and vampires before brought before the ultimate punishment of the sun, in the year of 1312 by the first members of the were hunting clan, Dirocu." he looked at Nodoka and her father with a raised eye brow "Can you tell us what happened Roshi?" He sighed "Kimiko Dirocu, Dracorians sister came back for a visit with her brother and found him fled from the castle. She was half dead when she returned to us. She disappeared. In vengance for her supposed death all fourteen members of the clan, in the mystical armors gifted to us by her, came to the castle and marched him before the sun rise. After that we went in search of the brother she pleaded with us to locate. We returned to the castle with its count to find it gutted from flame. After helping rebuild we returned to our home." Dracula looked at the portrait again scowling "Why did you desert the castle?" he asked Dracorian. He looked down "Vlad was a half blood cousin, quite mad, Turkey was invading the country and he showed that he could defend the surrounding countryside well, so we sent him to help mobilize the humans to fight them, it was humans fighting humans, it wasn't our fight." "But Vlad came back after father here fell to a hunter were while out grubbing for roots. That pushed me into a leadership I was not ready or willing to adopt. He, and a group of turned, attacked and slaughtered all but forty of us before we could escape. It was only after my sisters clan came to us that we went back to the castle, only to find it burnt. Vlad had killed thousands of people around the surrounding countryside.... and staked their heads in the fields surrounding the mountain. History books call him Vlad the Impaler. and for some reason he was dubbed the count Dracula, the monster vampire. Because of him we are now the hunted instead of the hunters." The room was deathly silent for a few minutes "How can the mages have allowed this?" Dracon whispered. Draco sighed "I was the only mage. None of the new generation could touch any of the magi weapons and showed no sign of the power. My son here was the most powerful... and, I'm not trying to insult you son, he was a simpleton." everyone looked down "But now theres Ranma! Akane as well can use at least three weapons! And my lovely wife, she has mastered two and can use another." Dracorian said kissing Nodoka. She blushed "Please dear, your making me blush." she said covering her mouth. Then grinned at them "I'm not the one to be looking to honored elders. Ranmas learned everything he knows from the weapons he carries. Most of the weapons enchanted all those years ago have developed consciousness, and Ranma knows how to tap into their minds and read their histories. Every spell performed around the items are now his to use." "Anyways, I think its time we went to bed dear." Dracorian said looking out the unshuddered window at the lightening sky. She nodded jumping up "Which room should we take?" she asked. He smiled "How about the room of the retired count." he chuckled looking at the three blinking men "Thats right, I've given the title and honor to Ranma and Akane, their the new count and countess of castle Dracula." The old mage snorted "Which ones which?" Dracorian grinned as he and Nodoka spoke at the same time "It's interchangeable." Ranma woke up slowly and looked at the silk canopy over the bed and looked disgruntled for a minute as he felt a womans body on his. He looked down angrily then felt it fade away when he saw Akanes long hair resting on his chest. He hugged her "Married at last." he whispered into her hair. She looked up at him and smiled softly "Hello mate, how was your sleep?" she asked kissing him. He grinned kissing back "Like heaven after some of the places I've been." he chuckled then groaned as she aimed him at her sex and pushed down. Akane moved slowly up and down him as she yelped in a way that drove Ranma crazy with lust. He leaned up and bit her nipple lightly and suckled on it as she cried out in orgasm around him. Ranma reached around her ass and pulled her lips open farther before he started thrusting deep into her. Akane gasped at the canopy as she neared another orgasm, then screamed as Ranma filled her with his seed, setting off her second. Ranma slumped back to the bed panting "Oh god I love you." he said then shouted it in a laugh of joy before hugging her tightly "Want to look at my dowry?" he asked tonguing her breast. She grinned "Besides the castle and the counthood?" she asked. he waved that off "Naw the castles for the old guys, they'll need something comforting to see them through the shocks. I mean the dowry I myself put together." he said rolling over so that he was on top. He grumbled as he felt her legs go around his waist "Hm... later." Akane layed in bed grinning lanquidly at the canopy when something cold touched her belly. she looked down and gasped seeing the large silver hair pins with eye ball sized rubies. "My god Ranma!" she gasped. He grinned "There ornamental at best I'm sad to say, but their yours, do with them as you will." he next layed two bracelets on her belly "They call them the the bonded pair, they shine brightly when your love thinks about you, this ones female" he slipped it about her wrist then sucked on her finger for a minute "And this ones for the man who loves her, we can switch at dusk." he said grinning at the soft red light splashed over them as both bracelets shone. He kissed her deeply for the next ten minutes. Next he placed a small book "This is all my worldly goods, as known to the banks of five different countries." he murmured taking one of her nipples into his mouth "Ranma! Theres over two billion dollars in three of these acounts! And the english one had fifty million pounds!!" she exclaimed then moaned as he ground his teeth together lightly as he mashed his tongue against the tip. She grinned at him "Your a tease." He took the stuff off her belly and set it on the table next to the bed and lifted her hips "Oh Ranma." she moaned feeling his hand guild his rock hard member into her. He sank in and stopped when their hips met "Oh Akane... thats everything I kept of the stuff we found in the last five years.... the rest of it I let Ukyo and Mousse keep." he grunted as he started rocking in and out of her. She shrilled loudly as she tried to answer but couldn't get it out. Ranma grunted as he leaned down and kissed her deeply then pulled her up to meet him. He looked her in the eye as they moved together, surprised that both of them could keep eye contact "My love." he whispered. "My life." she answered and nodded to the look on his face "Yes.... I would have joined you... in death!!!" she screamed as she came. He bowed his head over her shoulder and started crying as he exploded inside her. "Oh Akane.... I'm so sorry, how it must have hurt, my being gone like that." he sobbed. She held him in confusion at his response to their love making. She held him as he cried, his head resting upon her left breast "Its ok Ranma, you were hurting more then I was." she whispered. he looked up and suddenly was sucking the breath from her. After he ended the kiss he smiled softly "My life." she smiled kissing him back "My love." Soun, Kasumi and Roshi looked up from their breakfast, Roshi drinking a hangover cure Soun showed him, and smiled as the two came down stairs all smiles, and glowing light. "Whats with the light show?" Soun said politely. Ranma held up his hand as Akane did the same "Part of the treasure I had planned to have sent to Akane as a way to get on with her life when I killed myself but now its a part of my dowery." he murmured. Akane grinned at Soun "His dowery was larger then mine father, so theres nothing wrong with taking his name." she said showing him the silver match to the gold one Ranma had shown. They sat down at the table and thanked Kasumi greatfully as she passed then plates of food "Your a life saver sis." Ranma said smiling at her. Everyone blinked and he grinned "I married her sister, or brother if you look at it the other way, so Kasumi is my sister. The down side of that is Nabiki." he chuckled then winced as Akane hit him. He grinned at the look his grandfather was giving him "Your wondering what kind of fighting man could give himself to another man while in female form, and be out and open about my feelings." he stated and chuckled when he nodded Ranma held up his finger "Bokkens!" he said and two of them appeared before him. He took them and waved the man to the front of the castle "I would be honored if you would test my skill." Ranma set the swords against the wall and walked into the middle of the yard. He bowed to the man "I must warn you, I'm not going to take this seriously, mom would kill me if I hurt you." he said tonelessly. Roshi chuckled "I assure you I'm not easily broken." he said as he launched himself at Ranma. Akane was watching the two of them as they broke into the sword fighting part as Nodoka hugged her from behind "Hello dear. How does it feel?" she murmured then blinked hearing Ranmas battle cry as his sword flashed at her father "Nooo!!" she screamed. Ranma stopped looking at her then grunted as he was knocked back into the wall "How dare you attack a weaker opponent Ranma!" she scolded coming down to him. He held up the wooden sword "Just sparring mom." he muttered taking the hand his grandfather held out to him. "Nodoka! what is the meaning of destracting someone in the middle of a fight?" Roshi said sharply. Ranma gapped as she looked sheepish "Wow, someone that can cow mom!" he said in awe. She frowned at him "It's still wrong Ranma, a careless move and he would be dead again!" she said to him. She looked at her father frowning as well "Daddy promise you won't fight with Ranma. I'm serious, I saw him take out a clan of weres twice as large as the one you were killed by in less then four minutes." Ranma rubbed at the back of his head "Come on mom, was I supposed to take my time? I mean they killed you! I was very angry." he said embarressed. Nodoka kissed his cheek "And you brought me back. That doesn't mean is safe for you to fight with those you don't want to kill." Roshi snorted "Please daughter, your embarressing all of us." he said ending the conversation. Ranma smiled softly at her "I was being careful, I mean, I could have taken him when he first threw a punch a half hour ago, and how am I to teach my kids if I don't practice being gentle." She smiled at him "I guess your right, it just seeing you put down that werebear so heartlessly.." she trailed off seeing the look on his face "Seeing me?" he asked softly. He looked at Akane then at her "So thats how you knew I was coming here. I had thought Ukyo had snitched." he tossed the sword at the stone gate and went back into the castle as it bobbed from where it had struck. Nodoka looked at it and winced seeing how deep it went in "See father!? If he can make a wooden sword do that in an off handed gesture what would it do to you?" Ranma walked into the darkened dinning hall and looked at Dracorian as he got himself a drink "Good afternoon to you count!" he said smiling. ranma blinked that off "I knew someone was scrying on me, I barely felt it, but didn't bother since I felt no danger from it. Did you guys drag Akane here? Does she feel honor bound to do this or is it her idea?" he asked calmly, the cold creeping back into his voice. Soun paled as he and Kasumi walked into the room "It wasn't like that son. Ukyo called... and he said he had a way to check up on you, so we all asked to see you. After watching you for a few hours she was all for finding you." Ranma looked down closing his eyes "Is it love.... or obligation." he hissed. He held up his hand and spat a few words, then looked at the door as Akane walked in blinking "Whats wrong?" He looked at her "Why did you marry me? Is it because you love me, or because you feel sorry for me." he said as sweetly as he could. She looked at him steadily "Love." He looked at her and she saw the desire to believe her "How do I know that?" he whispered. She looked at him "You know how to prove it. We both do." she whispered. He looked away "I.... what if it hurts you?" he said. She walked up to him and kissed him for a few minutes "If it does, throw it true." she said solemnly. Ranma pulled her tight against him and kissed her deeply before letting her go. He closed his eyes and looked down for a minute then looked at her standing against the wall. He looked at her smile and held up his hands "Unicorns test." he whispered as light flowed like water in his hand and a large knife started to appear. "Ranma what are you doing?" Draco asked seeing the blade "Don't you know you have to use it once cast?" he asked softly. Ranma looked at him "Want to find out a secret about yourself? No? Then don't interfere." he said looking at the finished knife then at Akane again. He raised it and closed his eyes "Do you really love me?" he whispered and she nodded solemnly "Yes, with all my heart." he tossed the knife hard as it flared. He didn't look up until a hand touched his face. He looked at Akanes face then let out his breath seeing the knife buried in the wall where her chest had been. He hugged her hard as the knife disappeared. The two of them looked over at a frozen Soun as Kasumi shook him. "The unicorns test is the the only test that can't be faked, if the answer is false the blade bites the flesh of the person it was thrown at. If the answer is true it passes through them like air passes through a window." Soun blinked but didn't lose the wide eyed look until Akane hugged him. "So, what are your plans?" Ukyo asked when the two of them got up an hour later. Ranma smiled softly at her, seeing the pale looks both of them had "We were thinking of trading in my cruise ticket and purchasing a suite for the two of us." Ukyo lit up and grinned at them "The boat leaves in nine hours!" He nodded "Yep, I'm going to send those that want to home and then we can leave." he said standing up he looked at Soun and Kasumi and the two of them nodded a split second before they disappeared. Draco freaked silently "Where did you send them?" he asked. Ranma grinned "The front gates of the dojo." Akane kissed his ear lovingly, licking the edge and darting her tounge in. Ranma shivered in pleasure before she pulled away grinning. He grinned back then blinked looking at his mother "You want to go home? To tell you the truth, I'm not going to be coming back here for a few months." he said smiling. She blinked "Oh?" He nodded "I'm going to wipe out a were clan that escaped from me in the Himalayan mountains. They number two hundred strong so I was going to wait until I could leave Ukyo and Mousse somewhere safe until I finished, not to be insulting guys, but the ten jags we found were very close to ending you." he said grinning as Akane started kissing and sucking on his neck. Ukyo nodded "You said it. makes werewolves look like puppies." she shuddered. Mousse nodded "We will wait here until your return then, after the cruise of course." "What type of weres were these?" Roshi asked. Ranma blinked "Jaguars. Their pretty tough. Took me three seconds to kill one, pretty slow since I can kill ten wolves in that time." he murmured rubbing the inside of Akanes thigh. She grinned at him as a finger darted inside the shield of her underwear. She arched an eye brow at him as he rubbed her clit. "Want to go pack?" she murmured. He nodded letting her go and ran out of the kitchen on her heels. Back in the room Ranma pulled Akane into his arms and kissed her deeply as he slipped her underwear to her knees. She grinned at him as his fingers played a tune on her clit and he turned her around. He unzipped his pants and freed his member as she unbuttoned her shirt and undid her bra without taking either off. She cried out in pleasure as he pushed into her. Ranma took ahold of her hands and helped her rub her breasts for a little bit before placing them on the rail above the bed and taking hold of her breasts himself, the whole time pounding into her. She cried out loudly as she came around him for the second time when he exploded. Ranma groaned into her hair and held her for a few minutes before letting go and pulling out. He sighed laying back on the bed. He wrapped his arms around her when she layed in them "Maybe we should stay here?" he suggested softly. Akane snorted "Not. The only two times I was on a boat was in a storm or after china, I'm not wasting my chance to take a pleasure cruise." she purred. Ranma grinned as her as her hand brought him back to life for her "My love." she kissed him deeply as she sank back down him "My life!" Ranma grinned at the looks the old man gave him "This is your castle as much as it is our grandfathers, you will have want of nothing in my home. Have fun!" he said hugging all of them, even the bemused Dracula "You will come back?" he asked. Ranma nodded "Of course. In a few months we will come back, I mean, how can I enjoy my honeymoon if my families in the house with me." he said in a prison whisper. Roshi blinked then burst out laughing "The library is filled with everything you'll need to get aquanted with the modern times." Ranma said then kissed his cheek "Welcome to a very fun time." Ranma walked over to where the two hunters and his wife waited down the mountain "You would think I had said I was going off to battle!" he chuckled. They echoed him as they paced quickly down the road "We have four hours until loading." Ukyo murmured Ranma smiled "Alright if your so eager to get there..." Ranma sang as magic flared. It was two hours before departure and her shift end, the bartender, the woman with the beautiful silver bracelet on her wrist looked up and sighed sadly "I guess he was right, this trip would be his death." she murmured. Then went to ask the couple that had sat down at the bar what they wanted when she noticed the bracelets they wore "It's time to switch." Akane murmured. Ranma nodded handing his larger gold bracelet to her while taking the smaller silver one. "Your right dear." he said kissing her. He smiled at the waitress "I did die at castle Dracula, but the spirits of my family that died there came forth to help bring me back to my love here. Now, the castle be standing again and the countship of the Draculas has been passed on to the families best heirs." he said slipping the tight bracelet around his wrist. Suddenly the change came to them and the waitress blanched seeing the two change forms "Us. Who would have thought the son of a vagabond martial artist and the daughter of a dojo master from japan would become the count and countess of Dracula? Stranger things have happened." Ranma reached into her pocket and pulled out a gold bracelet like the one Akane was now wearing "Are you married dear?" she asked the waitress. She nodded and blinked at the second piece of jewlery she was handed "If the man your married to is your true love he will wear that with pride, if he isn't, it shall not touch his wrist. their yours. As thanks." she murmured then looked up as Ukyo and Mousse walked into the bar "Hey, what took you guys so long? We finished putting our stuff up a little while ago." she chuckled "Be quiet carrot top." Ukyo growled rubbing her head. Ranma chuckled at her "Slow pokes." Ranma sighed as she drifted in the water of the pool looking at the moon "Well what do you know? The hunters moon." she murmured as Akanes head touched her side "Very beautiful love." he agreed. Ranma grinned sitting up and to his surprise splashed him. He sputtered and chased after his giggling wife "Get back here Ranma!" he laughed. Ranma finally let him catch her and Wrapped her legs around his waist. "What are you going to do to me now?" she asked in a lusty voice. He grinned kissing her as his fingers found the source of heat touching his manhood. He delved into her with a finger and grinned as she gasped laying her head on his shoulder. Ranma started breathing words of love in his ear in as many languages as she knew then bit down on him as she came, almost ripping his throat open with her shaking. Akane groaned in disapointment as she stopped sucking after a few drinks. Akane grinned at his dreamy wife as she licked and kissed his neck slowly "My love, my husband, my wife, my life." she said softly kissing him on the lips. He chuckled at her and pressed his fingers deep into her before pulling them out. She grinned at him before looking around the empty deck then to his surprise, used her feet to pull his swimsuit down until his member touched her belly. she leaned up and moaned feeling him press into her. She closed her eyes and layed her head on his shoulder as he started thrusting into her, blowing her mind with pleasure. Akane kissed her panting mouth as she quaked in orgasm around him. he looked at her pleasure wracked face and exploded inside her. Ranma slumped against him panting heavily. Suddenly clapping came to them and they looked up to see Ukyo and Mousse leaning against the wall across from the pool. Ranma looked at them without any embarressment "Don't you know its not nice to spy on people?" she demanded then blinked raising to fingers and mumbling something "That means you too Dracorian!!" she shouted as the air over them shimmered as the scrying spell they were using shattered. "Damn." Dracorian muttered and everyone chuckled at him. "I agree, let them alone." Nodoka said sitting in his lap. Ranma grumbled as she pulled off Akane and straitened herself before getting out of the pool. She sat down on the lounge chair she had layed her towel across and smiled up at the moon as Ukyo sat next to her "So hows the married life treating you?" she asked. Ranma grinned "You saw, Akane and I are mates, soul bonded to each other in love." she said feeling Akanes hand grab hers. Ranma brought the hand to her mouth and kissed his palm as tbe two men chatted politely. Ukyo watched as Ranma licked and sucked on Akanes hand with relish. "Is that really that interesting?" she said softly. Ranma looked at her, two of Akanes fingers in her mouth, and nodded "Yes, I love having him in my mouth, or anywhere else in my body. It just feels right no matter what form we're in, we have a running bet, the one to get pregnant first gets to be pampered for a whole month when we get back it the castle." she giggled. Ukyo blinked "Won't you do that anyways?" Ranma smiled in pleasure as Akane led her out onto the dance floor and kissed her neck as they danced. Ranma smiled at him lovingly as he spun her away then pulled her back, thrilling every time his hand touched her back. Ranma felt lightning travel along her back as Akanes hand curessed her. Ranma licked her lips and saw his answering grin. She looked questioningly at him and he nodded ending the dance. Ranma blinked in pleasure as clapping started and bowed slightly as they left. On their way back to the room they stopped seeing four men standing in front of their room "Well, if it isn't little miss fang face." one of them murmured. Ranma arched an eye brow at them "That's countess to you, human. I had to stop off at home at the last portage to pick up my mate." she said smiling at them while touching Akanes face. They backed away seeing her fangs. She raised two fingers and they started glowing "I don't think it would be a fair fight since I'm not tied and bound so I'll take it easy on you." she chuckled as the bolts from the cross bow just fired burst into blue fire and disappeared long before they got close "Don't think the rising of the sun will give you an advantage human, we mages aren't that limited." she said before the four disappeared in a flash of blue light "Where'd you put them?" Akane asked kissing the back of her neck. "The pool." Ranma opened his eyes and blinked at the late morning sun that shone through the window. Ranma blinked hearing it again, the sound that had woken him. A rattle in the door lock. He pulled the sheet up Akanes body until her belly was covered, grinning at the delicious sight before grabbing up his swords and lightly hopping to the wall above the door to wait. "Stop your snivelling and get the door open! If you don't want us to hurt you you'd better do it!" a mans voice hissed. Ranma held the swords in one hand and waited for the handle to jiggle one more time before he unlocked it nosily. "Yes! now get back wench!" the voice hissed. "Naw, send her in first, if the vamp is still awake she'll be handling her when we attack." another voice said. The door opened slowly and the woman was pushed into the room to crash onto the bed. Akane woke with a start "What!?" she exclaimed seeing the woman "Whats- aahh!" she screamed seeing men charge into the room and dove under the sheet. The hunters searched the room as Ranma grinned holding up a silencing finger to the scared maid. "Damn! Where could they be hiding!?" one of them hissed. They looked around as the door slammed and saw Mousse and Ukyo standing in the room, having closed the door "I didn't know the hunters prey had added humans to it." Mousse said drawing his sword. They started to answer when a sheath dropped to the floor, followed by another one "Were hunters runes?!" one of the men exclaimed. Ranma chuckled and they looked up "Now I'm normally a very kind person to man and vampire, but since this is my honeymoon and you've scared my wife... I'll tell you what, you have two seconds before I call the ships captain and have you thrown off the ship, oops, to late." he said as a pounding sound came to the door. Ranma lept lightly to the floor and opened the door the men in the hall blanched seeing the swords and axes and crossbows "Uh, whats going on?" one of them asked. Ranma raised his sword to the four men by the bed "Those men forced the maid to break into our room while we were asleep. I can assure you those weapons they carry were ment for no good purpose. They will drop them and acompany you to the brige, under force if needed." he said challengingly. They looked at each other then at the weapons they carried, good for hunting vampires, but useless against a were hunter. Ranma sheathed one of the swords and slung it to his back as the four men were trooped out of the room. He handed the maid a hundred pound note "Sorry they scared you, can you help my wife straighten up this mess?" he asked leaving with the rest of them. The captain, suprised to be called entered the brige to find a man dressed only in his boxers carrying a impressive looking sword on his shoulder, pretty much dwarfing his security people standing guard over four deadly looking men in the tiny cage. He gulped "What is the meaning of this?" Ranma smiled at him "Ranma Dirocu, count of the house of Dracula. These four men broke into our room by forcing the cleaning ladys hand, intending to use vampire hunters weapons on my wife and I." he said calmly, the men in the cage gasping in fear shrinking back. "Dracula huh?" he said smiling. Ranma nodded "As the strongest member of our family I was made count after raising castle Dracula from its grave. My wife and I got married last night and decided to finish the cruise as a honeymoon." the man blinked at the mouthful he had given him "Your count Dracula?" he asked arching an eye brow. Ranma smirked "Not that one, no. The impaler was brought to justice by the Dirocu clan a long time ago." "Vampire hunters huh?" he asked looking at the terrorized men. Ranma nodded sneering "Ya, pansies. Vampire hunters aren't very well thought of in my family, since the Dracula side are vampires and the Dirocu clan hunt werewolves. These wimps would be lunch to the first one they found." he chuckled. The man blinked "You hunt werewolves?" Ranma nodded "You didn't think a human could hunt them? It may have been mans blacksmith skill that made this blade but it was vampire magic and strength that makes them the weapons they are." The man stepped back unconciously "Your a vampire?" he asked looking at him. Ranma smiled "Yes, I hunt the night as well as the day. Now listen up hunters, I don't hunt humans as man or woman and the only reason you were formed was to hunt man hunters. We do not do this. So unless you wish me to end your short lives you will leave us alone." he said glaring at them "How can you not hunt?!" one of them demanded. Ranma grinned "Well, for one, during the day I'm able to eat normal food and that makes the blood lust stay asleep at night. But if I had to, I like the charge a lions blood brings, like a drug to tell the truth. With man its fun, but those magnifacent cats are so..." he stopped shaking his head smiling "I like variety myself, I mean, human night after night, it gets boring. To date I've only eaten three humans, only one of them did I allow life after death." he said smirking "Then I killed him. Normal vampires are quite a let down in a fight, no wonder they needed something to fight against the weres. I'm rambling." Ranma looked at the men "if you want to feel the steel thats killed hundreds of weres the world round then bother me again, do it at night and it won't be steel you feel kill you, got me?" they nodded quickly and he grinned at the captain, his hat askew on his head as he bigsweated watching him leave. Ranma came around the corner and stopped seeing a thing of beauty "My countess, you will never leave our room if you keep wearing such as this." he growled looking at the skimpy as hell swimsuit, it looked painted on. Akanes face tightened indignatly. "You make me what to toss you on a bed and go to town for the rest of the day." he rumbled slapping her barely hidden ass. She grinned at him after they had kissed. "Sounds tempting." she purred. Ranma rubbed her ass lightly as he chewed on her tongue for a few minutes. She let go and was about to say something when hands wrapped around Ranma and lifted him off his feet in a crushing bear hug. "A were hunting vamp huh? well, meet a vamp hunting were!" the voice snarled as teeth sank into his shoulder. Ranma gapped as something that felt like lava poured through him and he fell to the deck after head butting the thing from behind. Ranma rolled as a hairy foot slammed into the ground where he had been "Dirty trick!" he roared drawing his sword. He winced as the fire burning through him coursed its way into his system "Blood... purge!!" he shouted as the spell started draining the blood from him. He let go of the sword and sent it flying into the were jags throat, pinning it to the wall. He colapsed to his knees and raised a hand to perform the next part of the spell, making the ball burst into blue fire. He started to waver as the fire died and the blood started pouring back into him. Akane ran to him as he got unsteadily to his feet and leaned on her as he walked up to the struggling were "Burns doesn't it? Thats the great thing about silver huh? Burns almost as bad as a weres poison." he said as his battle axe appeared in his hand. Light flaired suddenly and a man yelled as he landed in front of the other were that had suddenly appeared "Your not very good at this if you can be ambushed son." Roshi said squaring off against it. "Hey! I'm on my honeymoon grampa! Its not like I expected weres to grow a backbone!" he protested. Roshi laughed "Your just like your mother! She was so upset when a few weres crashed her sixteenth birthday party, she killed all of them!" Ranma grinned "Sounds like mom." Ranma chuckled as he heaved the axe at the were only to have it miss "How can you call that a attack?!" the old man demanded. Ranma grinned as the axe whiped about and tore its way through the were and came back to his hand "You were saying?" he chuckled "Well, looks like we have a chance to find out how good you are without your mother here to stop us." Ranma looked indignant "I'm on my honeymoon!" he yelled handing the axe to Akane who promptly threw it at another of the weres. Ranma waved the old man back and grinned at him "You want to see how good I am huh?" he cracked his knuckles as he walked over to the three closest weres "Come on, lets go." Ranma grinned as he quickly dropped the first were and stunned the second before landing lightly on the thirds head and looking at the old man "How was that?" he asked as he looked down at the shaking were he was standing on "Your in trouble unless you can answer my questions." he said to him "The clans shamans said you would be weakest at this time!!" he blurted. Ranma hopped down and crossed his arms "Start swimming." After he had tossed the rest of the huge creatures off the ship he unpinned the corpse from the wall and also tossed it and the rest overboard before kissing Akanes lips, making the axe disappear. Ranma looked up and frowned at Roshi's grin. "Dracorian, if I suspect your scying us while in our room I'll pickle you with shards of glass." he said sending the old man back. Dracula was chuckling as Roshi reappeared "Looks like you were caught son." he chuckled. Nodoka glared at them, having just entered the scrying room "Why do I not think I'm going to like this?" Ranma was about to sit down when his mother appeared. Carrying a first aid kit "Mom! The ship has a medical bay!" he protested. She shrugged that off as she started cleaning the wound and bandaging it. Ranma glared at the grins on Mousse and Ukyo's faces,and the wide eyed look of the captain and the hunters he had released "How would you like a working honeymoon love?" Authors Notes Negotiation Update: The Authors Notes are still holding strong, And have decided that an act of violence to show the strained tensions would be appropriate. Thus, they Took over the authors keyboard and attempted to rewrite this story, And turn it into a propaganda Phamplet for there cause. Luckily however A Sharp proofreader Caught the propagandist slant of the story, and managed to subdue the notes before they got out of hand. The Latest Demands of the authors notes include a Monopoly on colons and those little three dot things, whose name eludes me at this time.
