Incarnations of Darkness: Ryingo's Ressurection
by: Laocorn

PROLOGUE
	
	Shampoo once again checked on the remains of her former lover. What was
taking so long? She thought she used enough blood for it to take only a few
days. It had been four months in this damp, dark cellar and the black blood
had not changed at all. 
	Inklings of doubt had begun to grip her. She so wanted to see him again.
She had another growth spurt during the time and her womanly form had
filled out even more (if that was possible!) and all the boys would stop
and stare as she rode by on her deliveries.
	She was almost seventeen. Tommorrow would be her birthday and she wanted
to give him a special "present" in celebration. She sighed as she stared at
the vial, twisting her blue hair into coils. She glared at the vial. 'Why
do you have to be so damn slow,' she thought.
	Mousse was getting to pushy for her tastes and it looked like he was
getting VERY determined as she fleshed out. On top of that she was no
longer chasing after Ranma so her grandmother had that marriage look in her
eyes again. She wanted to see her great great grandkids before she pushed
four thousand.
	"Shampoo would you help Mousse with this ramen? I have to help a
customer."
	"Yes Great Grandmother," she called. She closed the door behind her and
ran up the stairs.
	The blood stood dormant in the vial. Finally it had finished the
sequencing and focusing of the appropriate energy. As Shampoo began to cook
ramen with Mousse the blood writhed out of the vial knocking it onto the
floor.
	It began to form feet and legs ever so carefully. Soon it filled them out
with muscles. By nightfall it had completely formed the muscular body that
Ryingo's mind was to inhabit. Reaching into the Abyss the blood used its
last stored energy to tear Ryingo's consciousness out of the swirling void.
	As the energy abated Ryingo opened his eyes and sucked in a breath. His
heart began to pump and he was unwounded. Shampoo had followed his
instructions to the letter.
	He chuckled happily," I'm baaaaaaccccckkk."
	

	The Demon King surveyed the work that was going on. They had finally
accumulated enough energy to open the portal and bring the Lieutenants
through from the Dead Zone. With that done they would have just enough
energy left for the first Lieutenant to enter the Human world. 
	Fifty of the most powerful demons joined hands in a ring and mumbled the
spell hat would break the Lieutenants binding. Objects began to float as
the chanting grew louder. Five shadows began to form in the middle as the
speed of the chanting increased. 
	The five Lieutenats opened their eyes. Someone was recalling them from the
Dead Zone. 
	"Should we answer the summons great one," the first thought to the huge
shadow before them.
	"Yes, our King is calling to us. Once you escape from this foul plane of
existance find the energy to call me back. I will be awaiting the summons,"
the shadow thought back.  
	"We here and obey great general," the five thougth in unison.
	
	The chanting rose to and ungodly pitch as the shadows began to solidify.
The Demon King began the necessary ritual to give the spirits physical
shape.
	"Earth to make your bodies whole," he said touching the ground. The earth
aroudn the shadows rose up to coat them.
	"Water to make your blood move," he said sprinkling water into the circle.
Five drops seperated and flowed to the earthen forms.
	"Fire to give you strength," he called as he lit a torch and threw it to
the circle. It struck the ground and rose to burn on the figures. 
	"Air to give you life's breath," the Demon King shouted. The wind picked
up and howled as it flew into the mouths of the creatures. 
	"And Void to gave you immortality!" he finished. A thick blackness
descended on the constructs. As it lifted they took their first breath.
	"It is good to be alive again," the fifth Lietenant thought to the King.
	"Yes, very good to breath," the third thought.
	"I hate to break this moment, but we have a mission for you," the Demon
King said.
	"Ahh, already?" the second thought to him.
	"The portal to the Human World is open and we wish to send one of you
through," the Demon King said smiling at the Lieutenants," if I remember
correctly you each represent one of the five elements: Air, Earth, Water,
Fire, and the Void."
	"That is correct," the fifth thought to him, "As we control the elements
so are we like them. The first and weakest of our number is the Lieutenant
of Wind, Gale."
	The transparent female first Lietenant stepped forward and bowed.
	"The second of our number is the Lieutenant of Ice, Crystal."
	The blue second female Lietenant stepped forward.
	"To my left is the male Lieutenant of Fire, Phoenix, and to my right is
the male Lieutenant of Earth, Geode"
	The brown and red Lieutenats stepped forward to bow.
	"As for me I am the female black Lieutenant of the Void, Chikoda. The
leader of those you see and I answer only to the General or you, my liege."
	'Intriguing,' thought the Demon King,' I shall send the weakest into the
portal. If he fails I shall continue in that order. I hope I do not have to
release the General before we conquer the Human world.'
	"The Lieutenant of Wind shall be the first to enter the Human world. If he
fails then Earth will try."
	"This is a good plan. When will you release the General, though?" thought
Chikoda.
	"When we enter the Human world I shall release him to destroy the humans."
	"It will be a day to remember o' great king," thought the Lietenant of the
Void.

	 
	Shampoo awoke from her dream with a gasp. She had a beautiful dream of how
Ryingo had come back to life and marrid her on the spot. A beautiful future
opened up for them. They had dozens of children and opened a huge Kat Kafe.
Ryingo killed Mousse and they lived happily ever after. There was one thing
that nagged at her. 
	Before she awoke the dream was shattered by five hideous creatures and a
serpentine monster that slithered from a purple void. Ryingo fought
bravely, but in the end he... and then she woke up.
	"I wonder what it means," she said outloud.
	Climbing out of bed she stretched gracefully and looked through her
closet. Pulling out her special birthday suit ( yep you guessed it a frilly
pink two piece with purple flowers) she coupled it with a brooch and tied
back her hair with three new pink ribbons.
	Turning to the door she exited and went to the cellar to check on Ryingo.
She opened the door and found a broken vial on the floor. There was no
trace of the last thing she held dear in life.
	'No,' she thought numbly. 'This can't happen. Not on my birthday.'
	Searching furiously for any trace of the black liquid. She screamed in
mental pain as she found nothing.
	There was nothing left for her to live for.

	Upstairs in the Kat Kafe Mousse and Cologne were busy preparing for
Shampoo's birthday when they heard her scream. As they left to check on her
an inky black stain on the rug reformed itself into a spider and climbed
the walls. 
	'You never know when this talent can come in handy,' Ryingo thought. As he
gazed out of eight eyes he saw Mousse carry Shampoo into the room. She was
whimpering and mumbling his name. 
	"Shampoo I have had enough of you moping over this boy you met," said
Cologne sighing, " I have decided that you will marry Mousse."
	Ryingo's vision hazed for a second. She must not have told him he wasn't
dead. As he pondered this sudden bump in the road Mouse began jumping
joyously. He was producing flowers and other such nonsense to try to make
Shampoo feel better. 
	Finally he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her. Ryingo's world took
on that yellow battle haze and the spider's eyes narrowed to slits.
	He jumped behind the pillar and stepped from behind it. Cloaked in shadows
he was completely hidden. This new development did not bode well with him. 
	Shampoo pushed Mousse away and ran to her room crying. Mousse continued
kissing who he thought was Shampoo. 
	"Mousse get off of that statue and go see to Shampoo," Cologne said
knocking him over the head with her stick.
	
	Shampoo cried into her pillow. She failed to notice the black spot enter
her room underneath the door. Reforming himself Ryingo looked at Shampoo.
	"Don't worry Shampoo. I'm here for you now," he said softly almost to
himself. Her trained Amazon ears picked up the sound though and she started
toward the shape
	Ryingo held his breath as Shampoo squinted in the wane light. He could see
hope shine in her eyes. 
	"Ryingo is really you?" she asked. In answer she felt powerful arms
encircle her in a loving embrace and a kiss that threatened to smother her
was planted on her lips. This certainly was Ryingo no one could kiss like
THAT.
	She hugged him close and began to cry into his shoulder. "I was begining
to think I'd never see you again," she sobbed.
	"Hush now. Everything will be fine," he said softly.
	
	Mousse walked to the door. Opening it slowly he called to her gently.
	"Shampoo," he said switching on the lights. Shampoo had her lips puckered
and looked like she was embracing something. Looking around she gasped in
suprise as she saw Mousse.
	Looking at her strangely he walked towards her. Slowly he leaned to kiss
her.
	SLAM
	"Shampoo no have time now, Mousse. Must open gifts and eat cake."
	Dragging a semi-conscious Mousse to his feet she lept out the door. Mousse
was left standing alone in Shampoo's room. 
	Looking sheepishly at the floor a puzzled look came over his face. Running
after Shampoo he reminded himself to tell Cologne to clean the black spot
off Shampoo's carpet.
	
	As soon as the trio finished breakfast Shampoo began to open the presents
her Grandmother had gotten for her. They were (suprise!) two new dresses fo
the same purple flower variety, a set of new pink hair ribbons, and a white
apron. 
	After the opening of gifts she ran to her room and out the back door of
the Kat Kafe hanging onto Ryingo. She couldn't wait to take him to the
remodeled park! His most powerful technique had leveled the entire park in
moments and she knew where they could be alone.
	Within minutes they were sitting among a glade of trees that overlooked
Furinkan High School. Lunch had just ended as they sat next to each other
breathin the clean air. 
	Shampoo leaned her head on Ryingo's shoulder and sighed in pleasure.
Ryingo smiled and looked out at Furinkan High School. He frowned deeply as
he remembered the pain he had felt as Ranma struck him with the ki blast. 
	Looking over at Shampoo he slowly lifted her up and she settled back into
his arms. He shook her awake and she moaned as she opened on eye. 
	"Shampoo now that I'm alive again I have to complete a little errand," he
said," How about I meet you back at the Kat Kafe. Smiling mischevously he
added," We could catch up on the time we missed in the past months."
	"HIYA," she yelled and kissed him happily. Jumping out of his arms she ran
to the Kat Kafe to put on her best night gown.
	"And now Ranma you are at my mercy," Ryingo said, his voice dripping with
anger and hate. He had waited in a black void for months dreaming of this
day.

	Ranma had just gotten back to classes. Miss Hinako scolded him and gave
him detection for his tardiness. He complained, but finally settled into
his seat. As she began the lesson he drifted out of reality and began to
daydream. 
	He watched the birds fly through the sky and the puffy clouds that looked
so much like animals. 
	'Look,' Ranma mused silently,' that one looks like a panda, that one looks
like a certain black pig I know, that one looks like a cow, that one looks
like Ryingo, that one looks like,.... wait a minute.'
	Ranma turned his head and looked out the window. A very angry looking
Ryingo was flying towards the third story window. Ranma rubbed his eyes and
yawned. He had to get more sleep he was starting to see things.
	
	Ryingo flew towards the window and by silent act of will imploded the
glass. The building shook with the force and people began to scream and
clear out of the room. As they did this Ranma awoke and was pulled along by
the force of the crowd. I
	Ryingo zeroed in on Ranma and shot towards the mass of people. As they saw
him coming they surged harder still and Ranma was carried away from him
again. 
	"DAMN IT," he swore as they began moving out the doors of the school.
Akane and Kuno ran towards the tree to get out of the commotion and try to
see what had caused it. 
	The crowd passed under a very full drain fresh with a light rain that had
fallen at about four o'clock in the morning. As it was the cold water
struck the crowd and a female Ranma emerged to join Kuno and Akane. 
	Ryingo floated out of the second story window and recognized Ranma.
Tripling his speed he flew at Ranma preparing the technique he had in mind.
Kuno saw the demon coming and broke into a monologue.
	"Fear not fair roses of beauty. I will protect you from the fearsom
snapdragon that has attempted to enter our Garden of Love."
	Akane and Ranma looked at each other. What snapdragon? Just as Ranma began
to think about what Kuno meant Ryingo made his attack. 
	Kuno leapt into the air and landed on Ryingo's back. Ryingo may have been
strong, but magic can only hold up so much weight.
	"GET THE HELL OFF ME YOUR POETRY SPITTING BASTAR--." 
	THUMP
	Ryingo and Kuno hit the ground hard. While Kuno was busy eating dirt
Ryingo jumped and again flew twoards his intended prey. 
	"None of your friends are here now Ranma," he jeered," Think you can beat
me one on one?"
	"I can take you any day Ryingo," Ranma called. Just then Ranma's female
intuition kicked into a battle with his male half
	'I was positive that this guy was dead!' his girl half said.  
	'Ya, so?'
	'If he's powerful enough to come back from the dead do you really stand a
chance?'
	Ranma shook his head. If it had martial arts in it he could do anything.
Leaping to the ground he assumed an offensive posture. 
	Ryingo simply changed course and launched himself at Ranma. Preparing his
ki he mumbled the necessary words and launched his attack.
	"Ryingo Special Technique GRAND ILLUSION FLASH," he called. The bright
flash of light was accompanied by Ryingo and Ranma's bland stares.
	Akane jumped down out of the tree as Ranma began to writhe in pain. She
remembered the eerie state that the technique had put her in. What was
Ryingo doing to him?

	Ranma and Ryingo were dreaming back to the faithful day when Ryingo was
destroyed. This time the tables had been turned.
	Ranma had inhabited Ryingo's position. Ranma saw the ki blast coming. He
had no control over the past and history played itself as Ryingo remembered
it. 
	Ranma pushed Shampoo behind him as the ki blast struck him. Pain lanced
through his body and threatened to tear him apart. The blast threw him
across the street and his body screamed in protest.
	Shampoo screamed and everything went black.

	Ryingo let go of his concentration and allowed Ranma to come back to the
land of the living. Ranma stopped rolling on the ground and opened his
eyes. H ecould still remember the immense pain.
	"That hurt you know," he said standing up. Akane ran up and hugged. him. 
	"Oh Ranma I was so worried. You were screaming and twisting around on the
ground it looked like you were in pain. What did he do to you?"
	Looking at Ryingo with a new light in his eyes. Ranma said," I believe I
just found out what he went through."
	Knowing that the lesson was over Ryingo phased out of Furinkan High
School.

	
	Shampoo was waiting patiently on her bed in her flimsiest night gown. She
sighed as she looked at the time. Exactly 5:00. When would he get here.
	"Shampoo scold when Ryingo get her," she said frowning.
	Just then she heard the door sliding open. Running into the dining room of
the Kat Kafe she looked around. No one was in the room. 'That funny,' she
thought. 
	All of a sudden arms gripped the front of her eyes from behind. She
gasped.
	"Guess who," said Ryingo. Grabbing his hands she turned around and pouted
prettily.
	"You scare Shampoo," she teased, "Shampoo no like anymore. I go to bed."
	Grabbing his hand she led him into the bedroom. She pushed him onto the
bed and lay down beside him. As she began to kiss his mouth and neck he
relalized how much Shampoo had filled out in four short months.
	He reached up and cupped one of her breasts in his hands. She squealed in
delight as the fabric rubbed against her erect nipple. He carefully lifted
the nightgown over her head and kissed her delicate nipples. She squirmed
as the pleasues took her over. She ground her wet mound into his leg trying
to draw sensations from something. Realizing this wouldn't work she went a
different route.
	"Let's get those clothes off of you," she purred. She quickly got him
undressed and wrapped her arms around his neck. He forced her to lay still
as he began licking circles on her nipples. She squirmed under his weight
and began to kiss down his body. 
	She burrowed under the covers and found his member. Gently rubbing the
head she began to feel him twitch. Slowly she lowered her head and began to
suck on it. He bucked his hips as she licked circles around his crown. 
	Her only warning was a tense in his muscles before he unloaded right in
her mouth. As she smiled she felt strong hands grab her. She gasped as he
drew her up and switched places with her. Before she could brace herself
shockwaves hit her as he began to lick her aching clit. She screamed in
surprise as the feelings threatenend to overwhelm her. 
	Suddenly he entered her with two fingers and began to explore her g-spot.
Rubbing slowly over the sensitive area she began to sweat as she held back
her cry. Finally she could take it no longer and with a moan she let the
orgasm wash over her. Panting heavily she saw Ryingo emerge from under the
covers. He began to ease her on ot him. 	
	Taking his member in her hand she directed it to spread her petals. He
reached up and put his hands on her hips. Curious she let him do this. 
	"Let's see if you can hold this one back," he said quietly. He grabbed her
hips hard and brought her down. She screamed in pleasure as she was
suddenly filled. He slowly began to move her up and down his shaft as she
moaned again. 
	Reaching one hand up he playfully began to tease her nipple. Bending down
so he could reach the other one she increased the bucking of her hips. He
began to suckle on breast as he teased the other. She was sweating with
exhertion as she neared her breaking point. 'Just a little.. more,' she
thought.
	With a cry she came all over him. Seeing this brought him over the edge
and he filled her with his liquid fire. Riding the waves of the orgasm
until they subsided they lay down to rest. 'This has been a wonderful
birthday,' she thought. Then they both fell asleep in each other's arms.

	The wind howled in protest as its master stepped from the swirling portal
onto the top of Furinkan High. Gale gazed around the schools roof and
summoned her power. In response the wind whipped around the city to detect
ki presence. 
	It detected little of the kind of strength the martial artist should put
out. Suprisingly those that it did detect were mere children (mostly
everyone is a child to a ten thousand year old demoness though)!
	'So I will enroll in this mortals school and destroy those with high ki
levels,' Gale thought with a laugh, 'this will be easier than I expected.
The demons will conquer this world in no time at all.'
	As Gale laughed the wind twisted around Furinkan. Lightning began to flash
in the distance. As it struck power lines throughout the city it hissed in
glee as fire's broke out. Its master had finally returned. 

	Light streamed into Akane Tendo's room. The lightning caused by Gale's
arrival had shorted out every alarm clock in the Tendo Dojo. Akane slept
peacefully as 8:30 approached and left.
	In the guest room Ranma shivered as Genma splashed cold water on him. 
	"Hey whadja do that for," a female Ranma shouted.
	"Because your going to be late for school if you don't wake up, boy."
	Ranma lookled outside as the sun began to climb towards its nine o'clock
positition. Ranma gave a scream and went to wake one half of the house as
Genma started on the other.
	Ranma ran into Akane's room and began to shake her shoulder. She groaned,
turned, and opened her eyes. 
	Unfortunately, the turn brought Ranma's hand into a very awkward position
on her breast. His mind froze in complete terror as the countdown began. 3
- 2 - 1... Akane noticed the hand were it didn't belong.
	"RANMA YOU PERVERT." The broken clock flew at Ranma's head.
	"LETCH," Akane cried as her bedside table flew at Ranma's head. Knocking
out three teeth Ranma fell to the ground. 
	Ranma looked up just in time to see Akane wielding her nightstand like a
lethal weapon.
	"HOLY SHI--," Ranma called before the piece of furniture contacted with
his head.
	
	The Tendo and Saotome's ate in silence as a bandaged Ranma glared at a
furious Akane. Kasumi had already finished her breakfast and was calling
the repairman about the wall Ranma had been hit through.
	Runnning to school already a good hour late they passed the Kat Kafe. They
saw Ryingo running out of the Kat Kafe. He was forcing his pants on as he
walked out the door. It was harder than it looked considering he was trying
to runn while doing this (Shampoo was also handing on the his neck
fiercely)! After accomplishing this he kissed Shampoo, and joined Ranma and
Akane.
  	"Big night last night?" Ranma asked with a smile. Akane hit him over the
head with her fist and mumbled somthing about Ranma being a stupid pervert.
	"Uh huh," Ryingo said casually as he watched Ranma rud his head. 
	"You know you mortals are quite awkward in the way you move. It's amazing
that you haven't developed some other form of locomotion." Sighing he
floated a few feet above the ground and increased his pace. Ranma and Akane
matched it as he hovered towards Furinkan.
	By the time they arrived Ranma and Akane were breathing heavily as Ryingo
patiently waited for them. As they entered Miss Hinako pounced on them. 
	"All three of you are late. That's detention." All three sighed and looked
at Miss Hinako in exasperation. 
	
	"Students you have a new clasmate today. Her name is Gale. Gale you sit
right here," she said motioning to a seat in the front row. Ryingo assessed
the new girl.
	She appeared strong though she was not very muscular. She had white hair
and a angular complexion. Her skin was very pale and she had clear blue
eyes. Her body was similarly a knock out form. Trying not to distract
himself her turned towards the days lesson.
	Two hours later the bell rang for lunch. Ranma, Ryingo, and Akane left for
the cafateria. As Ranma and Akane ate their food Ryingo thought about
inconvenient the need to eat was.
	When the two finished Ryingo began as always his movement towards the
Kendo club's practice. He could hardly wait to make a fool out of Kuno.As
they neared the gymnasium loud fighting sounds could be heard. 
	"That's funny," said Akane, " they've never been that lou--." Kuno flew
through the open door and slammed into the wall. Slowly he stood up and
looked at the group. 
	"Lo and behold," Kuno said with a sigh, "three Akane's worthy of my love."
Turning to address Ranma and Ryingo.
	"Though it looks like the number of Ryingos and Ranmas has tripled. I will
destroy however many come at me to win the fair Akane and release the
pig-tailed goddess.
	Walking over to Kuno, Ranma poked him in the chest. Kuno fell like a tree
being cut. 
	"What the hell happened there?" asked Ryingo. Before Ranma could answer
Ranma heard something in the distance. By instinct he ducked. Ryingo was
not so lucky as a bike came flying at his face.
	"NIHAO, Ryingo. Shampoo make you too too delicious ramen. You like," she
said batting her eyes. Ryingo was in no condition to talk with a red tire
imprint on his face. 
	"Chumpoo," he said nasally. Readjusting his nose he tried again.
	"Shampoo, that kind of hurt," he said looking in the gym.
	"What matter Ryingo. You no like ramen?" she asked hurt. 
	"No, no. I mean that really hurt when you ran me over."
	"Me do no such thing," she said. Turning around he pointed to the huge
tire mark on his face.
	"And just how did I get this do you suppose?" Shampoo huffed prettily and
pouted. As Shampoo pouted Ranma and Ryingo entered the gym. 
	As they gazed at the destruction around them they wondered what the hell
had happened. In the middle of the room Gale was asking for another
challenger as the whole Kendo club cowered in a corner. 
	"So that's who knocked out Kuno," Ryingo said. 'Hey this chick stole my
job,' he thought,' she looks pretty good though. Maybe I should take her
on.'
	
	Gale was having a wonderful time. She had taken on five members of the
Kendo club as well as Kuno. Her battle lust had taken full swing as she
waited for another challenger. 
	Hearing footsteps she turned to see a tall man enter the ring. He had long
black hair and a muscular build. She recognized him as one of her
classmates. What was his name again. Ryoto, Rilly, Rono? 'It hardly
matters,' she thought, a cruel smile spreading over her face,' he'll be
dead in five minutes."
	Turning to face him she called on her ki.
	"GALE FORCE WIND LASH," she yelled. Twisting around she launched a
hurricane like force at her opponent. Ryingo beared his arms to his face
and took the blast head on. A suprised Gale turned to see Ryingo ready his
own attack. 
	"Ryingo Special Technique DEMONIC PULSE," he shouted. The waves of force
moved to a beam and shot towards Gale. Before she could move it struck her
in the choulder. With a sickening crack and a scream of pain her shoulder
snapped backwards. 
	"DAMN," she shouted. Gritting her teeth she grabbed her shoulder and
snapped it back into place. Ryingo was already begining his next attack as
she finished her ministrations.
	"BLACK LIGHTNING CRACKLE," he shouted. The black bolt shot at her. Luckily
she did not underestimate him this time. As she moved to the side she
released her own attack.
	"TAKASHI WHIRL," she shouted. Spinning like a top she made her way towards
Ryingo at lightning quick speed. Already caught in the hurricane of force
he was buffeted by energy bursts and Gale's lighting quick punches.
	As she released him he landed near the outside of the ring. 'That'll teach
him,' she thought with a smile. As if defying her thought he began to rise
releasing his next attack. Her eyes opened wide as he released his Aura
Blast at full strength. 
	"It's not possible," she whispered as the blast hit her full in the chest.
She could feel her body shatter as the ki hit her. Lances of pain shot
through her. 'He mustn't win,' she thought biting back the immense pain.
	"LIGHTNING CRASH," she yelled falling to her knees from the exertion. From
her outstretched palms shot a torrent of lightning bolts. Most missed
Ryingo, but five struck home in his legs and chest. Twitching and spasming
he fell to the ground. 
	That was the last thing either remembered as they blacked out.
	
	Ranma, Akane, and Shampoo ran to the ring and picked up the two hurt
fighters. As they carried both of them to Doctor Tofu they inspected Gale's
wounds. She was bleeding a clear thick liquid that ran from her wounds.
Passing this fact by they brought her into the clinic.
	Dr. Tofu came out of a examination room to see the mottly group at the
door. Quickly he pushed them into an examination room to check on the two
patients. 
	He found Ryingo to have two broken ribs and sufering from shock. Gale was
in a much worse condition. 
	She had broken five ribs and shattered her pelvic bone. Her right shoulder
was dislodged and she was suffering from a loss of .... blood? Dr. Tofu
took a sample for later inspection. 
	'What the hell happened to these poor kids,' he thought, 'it looks like
they were attacked by a bear in a lightning storm.'
	Walking out of the room he went to the waiting trio. 
	"Ryingo will be fine. Gale is a slightly different matter. She appears to
be bleeding some sort of fluid that I can't identify. If I didn't know
better I'd say it was rain water."
	"Can we see now," Shampoo asked.
	The group walked in and Shampoo sat in a seat next to Ryingo. Akane and
Ranma looked both over and then walked back to Tofu. 
	"Are you sure she's really bad? She looks OK to me," Ranma said.
	Dr. Tofu walked over to Gale. His eyes raised in shock. 'That's
impossible,' he told himself.
	Where as before Gale appeared to need a transfusion and a truck of
bandages now her color was returning. She was breathing normally. Pressing
his hands down he checked for broken bones. The ribs were unbroken and
sturdy as ever. The pelvic bone appeared to be broken not shattered. As he
traced the crack he felt something pass over it. As he checked again the
pelvic bone had healed! What the hell was going on here?
	Ryingo groaned and sat up. Looking at Shampoo he gave her a signal. She
hugged him fiercely as he mended his bones with ki. Once he was good for
fighting again he thanked Dr. Tofu. All of the group moved out in the
waiting room to give Gale some peace.
	Gale quivered in her sleep and woke up. Looking around the room she cursed
herself for blacking out. Checking to see that she had healed her wounds
already she summoned her power. Whispering a few words of magic she
dissolved into the air and flew out the window.
	
	"Will she be alright Dr. Tofu," Akane asked. 
	"It looks like she'll be fine," he said puzzled, "I could hae sworn she
was in critical condition though." Ryingo frowned at this and thought back
to his life in the Demon world.
	No one, but the Demon King had the power to defeat him. There were the
legends of the Five Lieutenants and the General, but he dismissed those as
myth. No one coud be as powerful as the Demon King claimed the General to
be. 
	'There shoudn't even be another demon in this world for the next thousand
years,' Ryingo thought happily, ' to send another demon through in such a
short time they would have had to find an almost unlimited supply of--.'
	Ryingo sat straight up as Dr. Tofu finished his conversation with Akane.
	"SHIT," he yelled, " I FORGOT ABOUT HIM." His mind raced as he thought of
the possibilities. Mousse had an unlimited supply of dimensional energy.
Using that they could send one demon through every month! With that much
energy they could even resurrect dead demons without the use of the Blood
Rite!
	This brought unlimited possibilities as far as challengers were concerned.
They could send any demon that had ever lived into the mortal world. And if
the stories of the General are true... it would only take about a year to
bring him through from the Dead Zone.
	"We have a small problem," he said. Running into the examination room he
swore as he saw the empty bed. Shampoo ran up behind him. 
	"What this all 'bout?" Shampoo asked. 
	
	"YOU WHAT," Shampoo screamed as Ryingo finished telling her. Grabbing him
by the shirt collar she threw him across the room into a wall. 
	"RYINGO VERY STUPID MAN," she shouted launching a kick in his face.
Picking him up by the collar again she dragged the twitching Ryingo home.

	Night was falling as Gale reformed herself on the roof of Furinkan. 
	'The first day is finished and I have already found him,' she thought.
	A swirling black figure appeared in front of her. 
	'Lieutenant Gale report,' the General thought to her.
	'I have intercepted the champion, his name is Ryingo,' Gale thought
proudly.
	'Impossible, Gale was the last demon champion they sent to the Mortal
world.'
	'B-But I saw him with my own eyes. It's been four months since they last
sent a champion. According to the deal we made with the First he should
have been recalled.'
	'If someone performed the Blood Rite after his time was up his soul now
exists only in this dimension. Remember that if the Demon Champion had not
died, and if the Human Champion was still alive then, and only then, would
the demon be recalled. Ryingo must have died before his time expired. If he
performed the Blood Rite his soul is bound to the dimension it is performed
in.'
	'If this is true than he has betrayed us. He had fallen in love with a
human female. He must be destroyed!'
	'This is true. However, he may be our last hope as well.'
	'How so?'
	'If he decides to carry out the human tradition of marriage he will
undoubtedly use the demon tradition to make them sexually compatible. By
mingling their blood, like we demons do during Spawning, they become
fertile for each other and each other alone. 
	If this female delivers a child by him it will be half human and half
demon. According to our agreement with the First this joining of our
dimensions will allow the five of you to act as a single champion. There is
no way a mortal can stand up to the power of my Five Lieutenants.'
	'How can you be so sure he will perform the blood mingling ritual with
her?'
	'All humans and demons thirst for children. Humans wish to have them to
love and carry on their race. Demons wish to have children to carry on
their legacy. No doubt he will happily comply with the mating portion of
the task, and it will be expected that this female will wish for offspring.
Therefore, do not kill him till you know she is with child.'
	'I hear and obey,' she said bowing deeply. The shadow faded as Gale
digested this information.
	Raising her head she exerted her power to set the trap she laid for the
Champion. The wind howled as she whispered the words of magic. Soon the
entire school was set for tommorrow.
	'Tommorrow this school will become a blood bath as I destroy the
Champion,' she smiled evilly,' Once I kill him I'll destroy the other
disgusting humans for sport. This will be fun."
	She let out a cackle that rivaled Kodachi's and again dissolved into the
wind.

	Ryingo snuggled close to Shampoo and let out a sigh of happiness. The sun
streamed into his face as Shampoo giggled.
	"You so warm, Ryingo," Shampoo said, " and Shampoo love to feel sun on
body."
	'Sun?' Ryingo thought to himself, ' if the sun's already up then...'
	Opening his eyes he looked at the alarm clock. It read 8:30. 
	He breathed a sigh of relief. He still had thirty minutes if he phased to
school. Turning his head to the pillow he pulled the covers up to his head.
Shampoo leaned into him happily and hugged him.
	"Shampoo are you in your room?" Cologne said opening the door. Turning her
head she looked at the form in Shampoo's bed, or rather two forms. One was
Shampoo and the other had long black hair...
	"Ah ha! I caught you Mousse! You know you're not supposed to be with her
till the wedding night," Cologne cried slamming the figure with her stick. 
	"Great Grandmother why you hit Ryi--Mousse like that," Shampoo stuttered.
She had almost given away her secret. 
	"Get out of here while I tend to him," Shampoo finished shooing Cologne
out of the room.
	Walking down the stairs she encountered Mousse. Clomping him over the head
again she wondered how he had gotten out of bed and dressed so fast.
	Rubbing his head Mousse continued to Shampoo's room. 
	"Oh, my head," Ryingo moaned, " why'd that old ghoul hit me anyway?"
	"She thought you Mousse," Shampoo answered with a sigh.
	'Oh that's right,' he thought, ' that engagement thing. I'll have to take
care of him one of these days. Dig around in his sleeves for that energy
converter, too.'
	There was a knock on the door. Shampoo looked fearfully at the door as it
opened a crack.
	"Shampoo are you dressed," she heard Mousse say. 
	"Quick change to that Jell-O stuff," she whispered to Ryingo. 
	"That'll take way to long I'll have to improvise with a face!"
	Mousse walked into the room and looked at Shampoo staring at the form next
to her. Mousse squinted and tried to make out more than a blur.
	"Shampoo who's that with you," he said alarmed. Shampoo was his fianc'ee
she wouldn't be with anyone else would she?
	"No one here, but me and...," looking at Ryingo's face," RANMA." She
gasped audibly. Why had he chosen that face of all the things? 
	"WHAT," Mousse cried in anger. Producing deadly instruments of destruction
she threw them at the other figure.
	The Ranma figure dodged them with inhuman grace and pounded Mousse into
the wall. Jumping backwards he grabbed Shampoo and leaped out the window as
a deadly barrage of spikes sailed at him. Mousse leaped out the window in
time to see Ranma's form shimmer and disapear along with his wife to be
Shampoo. 
	"DAMN HIM," shouted Mousse. 
	"What's all the commotion about," Cologne said stepping out the front
door. Walking inside Mousse told her everyhting he had seen.
	
	Shampoo was momentarily dizzy and then slightly sick as she popped into
being atop the roof of Furinkan High. Looking around her she smiled
slightly.
	"Ryingo this bit awkward," she said as he set her down.
	"Why's that," he asked casually.
	"Shampoo and Ryingo have no clothes," she said pointing at him. 
	He gulped audibly as he realized she was right. His body began to react to
her state of undress as he created some clothes for them. Typical attire
for either. Black T-shirt and jeans for Ryingo and a pink flowered Chinese
dress for Shampoo.
	"That better," she said matter-o-factly. 
	"You might want to wait here while finish school," he said.
	"Actually," she said begining to undo the conjured dress, "Shampoo think
Ryingo might want to skip."
	Gulping audibly he quickly hopped out of his clothes.

	Ranma and Akane rushed into class to see Gale already there. She gave them
a crooked smile as she assessed them. Ranma had the strongest ki, but Akane
was still powerful. She would remove both of them to make sure.
	"Now class let us begin," Miss Hinko said. Gale raised her hand.
	"Yes, Gale." No one should have a question this early in class.
	"Miss Hinako do you ever get tired of teaching," she said in a sweet
voice. Miss Hinako brought her yardstick down on top of Ranma's sleeping
head. 
	"Yes as a matter of fact I do," she said with a sigh and mouthing the word
"detention" to Ranma.
	"How about letting someone else teach then," she said again to sweetly.
'What's going on here,' Miss Hinako thought.
	"Like me for instance," she said getting up. Her sickeningly sweet smile
turned to one of cruelty and malice as she walked to the front of the
class. Turning around her eyes glowed white hot as she adressed the class.
	"First lesson," she called out her hair swirling like untamed wind around
her body, "Respect you elders. Considering I am ten thousand years yours I
will have your respect or the third lesson comes into play." Children began
quivering as she floated off the ground. Miss Hinako prepared herself for
anything.
	"Second lesson," the wind whipped around her as the windows imploded.
Students screamed in fear as glass shot towards them. "No screaming or
misbehaving while I destroy you." The wind howled to an ungodly pitch as
she cackled gleefully.
	"Third and final lesson," she said to the screaming students. 
	"GALE FORCE LIGHTING LANCE," she screamed as a beam of electricity
appeared in her hand. She wielded it like a sword as she advanced on the
students.
	"Violaters of the first and second rules will be punished," she said
happily. She raised her lance and prepared for the slaughter at hand. She
would enjoy this.
	Leaping at the nearest student she swung. The sword crackled into an arc
as she brought it down across his neck. The boys head rolled of his
shoulders like a hot knife through butter. The students screamed and fled
for the door as the blood thirsty Gale advanced on them. Her pupils
narrowed to reptilian slits, from her hands sprang wicked claws, and her
teeth sprouted inch long fangs.
	"You have all violated rule two," she said deathly quite.
	Raising her sword to kill them all in one huge stroke she was struck from
behind. As Ranma finished off his kick Akane began her attack. Feeling her
control slip away as the students ran from the room she turned to the pair.

	"You'll pay for that. You have no idea who you fight. I am no meer human.
I am the first Lieutenant of the General's army. You shall kneel before my
power."
	"Not a chance, Gale," Ranma said.
	"HIRYUSHOTENHA," Ranma shouted releasing his ki. The bolt sailed towards
Gale. She raised her lance and absorbed the energy like it was never there.
Ranma and Akane gasped as the ki dissapeared. Gale laughed insanely.
	"You humans cannot possibly hope to defeat me. My power is drawn from the
elements themselves. Only the First could hope to defeat me. give up now
and your deaths will be quick."
	Turning to look out the window that was behind Ranma. 'Damn,' she thought,
' those mortal students are escaping. Luckily I prepared for this.'
	Mumbling the trigger word under her breath she formed a plane of force
that encircled the school. Students screamed as they hit the wall of force.
Smiling in wicked glee it didn't occur to her to look at her adversary.
	"TENSHIN AMAGURIKEN," Ranma called out. His fistsbombarded Gale as she
cried out in suprise. 

	Ryingo sat in complete silence looking at Shampoo asleep. He was still
inside of her even as she slept. Apparently he did not here the screaming
of the students just a floor below him. Sighing he rolled out of Shampoo.
She groaned and reached for him. Finding nothing she rolled towards him
again. 
	If she had rolled a second later it would have been her death. A lightning
bolt shot through the top of the school where Shampoo had been sitting. A
very pissed off Gale flew through the new doorway and looked at the naked
couple. Smiling she called on her demonic powers to answer a very pressing
question.
	'Damn it,' she thought, ' this girl isn't pregnant yet. They haven't even
mingled blood so neither is fertile. Meaning I can't kill this insolent
bastard. No matter. I can amuse myself with the other students.'
	Flying over the side of the school she flew towards her former classmates.

	Ryingo and Shampoo quickly dressed. Grabbing onto Shampoo without a word
they phased to the battle.
	
	Gale was having the time of her life. She had never slaughtered this
ruthlessly before in her life. A smile spread across her face as she flew
toward the screaming students.
	"HIRYUSHOTENHA," Ranma called out. Gale turned and raised the lance
absording the ki energy. 
	"Don't you mortals ever learn," she chided. Raising her sword she prepared
for their destruction. 
	Ranma advanced on Gale followed by Akane and Miss Hinako. 'Three against
one,' Gale thought amused,' they don't have a chance.'
	"TAKASHI WHIRL," she shouted summoning a hurricane of force that sped at
Ranma. 
	Ranma took the brunt of the technique as he fell over. Akane and Miss
Hinako were luckier only being blown back a few feet. Ranma shook his head
and tried to get. As he did he encountered Gale's leering face. She raised
her sword to his nose.
	"And now I have won,"Gale said raising the point for the killing blow.
	"BLACK LIGHTNING CRACKLE." Black energy struck Gale in the side. Her sword
cut a gouge in the ground two feet deep. She screamed at missing Ranma as
she turned to face her attackers. 
	Flying above them she surveyed the battle. Ranma, Akane and Miss Hinako
were on her right while Ryingo and Shampoo were to her left. Forming a
circular pattern they waited for Gale to return to the ground. 
	"We've got you now," Ranma said. Cracking his knuckles his battle aura
flared.
	"Guess again, mortal," Gale laughed as she readied her attack.
	"GALE ULTIMATE TECHNIQUE HURRICANE RAGE," she shouted. Wind expanded out
from her engulfing Ranma and the others. All were caught up in the fearsome
power of Gale's technique. It whipped them around its circular path
unmercifully as Gale struck a course toward them.
	'In this wind,' Gale thought, ' they'll begin to make mistakes. As soon as
that happens they are mine.'
	Miss Hinako swirled around the path of the hurricane. She was begining to
get slightly sick as Gale appeared out of the air. She wore a frightening
smile that a person might get when they finally snapped.
	"HAPPPO-NO-COIN-RETURN," Miss Hinako shouted. The blast took the battle
hungry Gale in the face. Miss Hinako cheered as Gale flew into the wind
once more.
	"Don't rejoice yet. You haven't killed me," Gale's voice said. Miss Hinako
looked around just as a fist connected with her chin. Miss Hinako was
thrown out of the hurricane as Gale began to laugh. As Miss Hinako looked
at the ground rushing up to meet her she noticed how high they were.

	"We have to find Gale and destroy her before the huricane tears apart
Nerima," Akane shouted over the wind. 
	"Too late," Gale called as she lunged toward Shampoo. The purple hair
beauty cried out in suprise as Gale's kick connected with her chest.
Shampoo also flew out of the hurricane to join Miss Hinako. Gale laughed in
twisted glee as Shampoo connected with the pavement.
	"You BITCH," Ryingo screamed lunging at her. 
	"Temper, Temper," she mocked, "you shouldn't have become so attached with
that girl. She is alive. Not for long if I release the demons, though."
Gale cackled in vicous glee as Ryingo lashed out at her. Feinting to the
side she dodged the attack and returned with a low kick. Ryingo was pushed
out of the hurricane.
	"Three down two to g--." Gale cried out as a foot connected with the back
of her neck. 
	"You forget Gale. Demons can fly," Ryingo mocked as she whirled around.
Holding her aching neck her eyes narrowed.
	"That attack will cost you, traitor." She raised the sword and brought it
down hard across his exposed flank. The sword tore through his skin sending
black blood everywhere. He clutched at his side and turned to face Gale as
she prepared her next attack.
	"LIGHTNING CRASH," Gale shouted sending the hundreds of tiny bolts
screaming towards him. The electricity sent him sprawling into
unconsciousness as he fell from the hurricane.	
	'Now I just have to deal with those two insignificant humans,' Gale
thought.
	Weaving in and out of the hurricane she advanced on an unsuspecting Akane.

	"YOU'RE MINE," Gale shouted as she stabbed the sword into the wind. Akane
screamed and part of the hurricane stained crimson. 
	"Help me Ranma," she called into the wind. Gale pulled the writhing girl
out of the hurricane and threw her into a tree. Now the last would die as
well.
	
	"Help me Ranma," Ranma heard Akane shout to him. Fear was in his eyes as
he saw her slam against the tree and lie still. Blood dripped from her
flank as she twitched on the ground. Ranma's vision hazed as crimson as
Akane's side. His battle aura flared to a hideous red as he gazed at the
incoming Gale. 
	Gale slammed into the battle aura as if it was a wall. Gale pulled back as
Ranma advanced on her. A strange feeling took her over. It was an all to
human emotion she had heard of before. Could she possibly feeling...fear?
	Ranma yelled in rage and threw a three punch combination at her. Blocking
them with her sword she feinted and tried to strike at the battle aura. Her
sword reflected like light off a mirror. 
	Ranma's hands glowed red as he punched at her again. As Gale blocked with
her lightning sword it shattered into shards of light. Staring at her empty
hands the foreign emotion swept over her. 
	She looked up in time to see Ranma gathering an immeasurable amount of ki.

	"HIRYUSHOTENHA," he shouted in rage. The ki blast flecked red as it sped
toward her.
	"NO," Gale shouted as the burst of light struck her in the chest. Clear
fluid dripped from her wound. Willing herself to heal she raised herself in
a rage. She gasped as she looked at the wound.
	"NO, IT'S IMPOSSIBLE," Gale shouted clutching the wound. The wound would
not heal! She couldn't close the deadly gash caused by her adversary's ki.
She felt herself growing weak as the blood drained out of her. 
	"DAMN YOU RANMA," she shouted as she felt consciousness slip away from
her. Falling to her knees she tried to raise the ki to punish her opponent.
Even this action was beyond her. 
	The wind howled as it sensed its masters imminent demise. Ranma gazed on
as Gale slowly lost substance and with a final scream burst into a horrid
rain of blood. Hatred burnt in his eyes as he walked to Akane.
	Putting his fingers to her neck he realized that she (thank god!) had a
faint but steady pulse. With its creators death the shield around the
school collapsed, and children poored into the street completely ignoring
the carnage inside the school.  
	
EPILOGUE

	Akane moaned and opened her eyes. Ranma gazed down and held her hand as
her vision melted into one image. Her family was around her in a white
room.
	"Where am I," she asked. She clutched her head noticing a bandage around
it. Then she remembered the gruesome battle with Gale. Looking at Ranma he
nodded his head answering her unspoken question. Gale had not left the
school alive.
	"Your in the hospital," said Soun. It was obvious he had been crying up a
storm from the red eyes. "What happened to you and your friends Akane."
	"Its a long story, Dad," Akane said. She rubbed her head at remembered
pain.
	"How are the others," she asked worriedly.
	"Ryingo is still regaining consciousness, but he'll undoubtedly be as good
as new as soon as he wakes up. Miss Hinako will be in a cast for a few
weeks. Shampoo got off the best of us all with only a broken leg and a
concussion. 
	Akane sighed in relief. Trying to get up she found herself unable to.
Looking down she found that she too had a broken leg. Seeing her want to
move around Ranma put his arm around her and helped her up.
	They slowly walked to Ryingo and Shampoo's room as Ryingo finished his
healing process. Miss Hinako was watching this in wonder as he got up good
as new. 
	All of them walked over to see Shampoo as she sat in bed. 
	"At least we defeated her," Akane said with a sigh. Ryingo sat on his bed
and shook his head. All of them looked puzzled as he began to explain.
	"If Gale really was the legendary Lieutenant of Wind then that means the
other four Lieutenants exist. I have a feeling that they'll be sent after
us as well as the General if they can realease him. I accidently gave them
an infinate supply of energy while I worked for them. That supply is
Mousse." The group digested this in silence as they thought of teh battles
they might have to fight.
	"Can't we just remove Mousse from picture," she asked hopefully. Sometimes
he was more trouble than he was worth. Everyone looked at Shampoo as she
finished her spiteful comment. She blushed and looked at the floor.
	"Shampoo just wonder," she said. 
	"Why don't we just remove the device from his sleeve?" Akane asked.
	"Mousse has dimensional energy that is manifested as the production of
items out of thin air and an infinate space to store them in. To remove the
device we would literally have to climb in his sleeve and search through
the eternity in there."
	"Oh," Akane said blushing.
	"Well we'll just have to be prepared for the next fight," Ranma said.
Ryingo walked to the window and stared out.
	"I fear that will be all to soon," he said with a sigh.
	
	Gale screamed and her voice echoed in the infinateness of the Dead Zone.
The familiar shadow appeared before her and she quivered in fear.
	'You have failed me Gale,' the General thought deathly quite.
	'No master I found the Champion,' she thought to him.
	'ENOUGH,' he mentally screamed she winced at his loudness in her mind.
	'You failed to destroy the Champion,' he thought.
	'But I found out who he is,' she thought.
	'Hmmm,' the General thought.
	'His name is Ranma,' she thought to him imparting an image, ' he was the
one who slew my material form.'
	'You are sure this is the Champion,' he asked her.
	'I am sure of it. Who else could kill one of the Lieutenants,' she asked.
	'You have done well Gale. I shall impart this knowledge to Chikoda,' he
thought. She basked in his praise as they floated through the nether region
of the Dead Zone.

	The portal swirled once and then vanished.
	"DAMN," the Demon King swore," yet another has failed to destroy the
Champion.
	'Master," Chikoda thought to the Demon King,' I have news Gale's essense
has given in the Dead Zone. She has identified the Champion. His name is
Ranma. I am sending mental images of him to the other Lieutenants as we
speak.'
	The Demon King frowned. 'How could he kill Ryingo and Gale he is only
mortal.'
	'My King, I have recieved news from the General. Ryingo is alive and
living among the humans. He helped to defeat Gale in battle. He appears to
have allied himself with the Champion. Worse than this he is in love with a
human female.'
	"WHAT," the Demon King shouted, "Ryingo has betrayed me? I want his head
brought to me. There will be no Blood Rite for him where I intend to banish
him."
	'Master, he may be the light at the end of a very dark tunnel for us,'
Chikoda thought. She instantly imparted all of the knowledge of the blood
mingling and the consequences their children might bring.
	The Demon king smiled as the insight flooded his mind. 
	"We will send Crystal through and tell her to observe them the first day.
I want to make sure this female is impregnated before we destroy him. Give
them time though. We shall wait for a year before we release Crystal into
the Human world."
	'I here and obey,' Chikoda thought.
