Marital Arts 6 - Pt2

Ranko continued to draw her finger along Shampoo's outer lips, 
teasing her with her touch.  Shampoo brought a hand up to her 
breast, touching it through her dress, drawing the fabric across her 
stiffening nipples. 
 
Ranko:  "Then I lay back and told him to come closer.  And he 
	opened me up and started to use his tongue on me." 
 
Ranko slipped a finger into Shampoo, who shuddered and gasped at 
the penetration.  Shampoo's wetness already coated her insides and 
now started to spread over Ranko's hand. 
 
Ranko:  "Then I told him about my clit and he touched it lightly." 
 
Ranko brought her finger to Shampoo's clit and Shampoo orgasmed.  
Ranko smiled at her lover's release and brought her hand up to her 
mouth, letting herself taste the coating on her fingers.  She next 
brought her hand to Shampoo's mouth, giving her a taste of her 
pleasure. 
 
Ranko:  "I want you to stay with me.  I want you, Shampoo." 
 
Shampoo suckled at Ranko's fingers as she recovered.  Ranko's other 
hand wormed its way under Shampoo to make its own way to her 
damp sex.  Shampoo lost Ranko's fingers at her mouth and could feel 
the bedsheet slowly slip from her body as Ranko made her way down 
to her thighs.  Shampoo rolled onto her back as she felt Ranko 
between her legs. 
 
Shampoo suddenly jumped up!  She knew how to avoid fulfilling the 
"kiss of death"! 
 
*************** 
 
Ranma and Akane were surprised when the door to their room burst 
open, but not completely so.  Shampoo rushed in, dragging Ranko (in 
panties) behind her. 
 
Shampoo:  "Shampoo solve problem!  Here!" 
 
While the others wondered where she kept the knife, Shampoo 
quickly poked herself in the finger and watched as the drop of blood 
pooled on the skin.  She put the finger to Ranko's mouth, then to 
Ranma's. 
 
Shampoo:  "Shampoo make Ranko and Ranma blood villagers!  Then 
	no have to kill or marry!" 
Cologne:  "Very clever, Shampoo." 
 
Ranko turned on the room light.  Ranma and Akane jumped back as 
their blanket suddenly flew into the air.  Underneath was Shampoo's 
great-grandmother, balancing on her staff. 
 
Ranma:  "What were you doing there, you ghoul?" 
Cologne:  "Shut up, boy."  [whacks Ranma with her staff]  "If you are 
	truly blood villagers you must show respect for your elders." 
 
Cologne looked at the four young children.  She knew something was 
wrong; she could feel it.  Being almost a hundred and fifty, and not 
being stupid, she was able to figure out what it was.  These children 
were too accustomed to nudity, to each other, much more so than 
could be allowed even for siblings.  Shampoo had never been self-
conscious, but the others... 
 
Cologne didn't really object to Shampoo's act.  She could sense the 
potential in the two Saotome children.  If they were now part of the 
village they came under her jurisdiction as an amazon elder.  She 
looked at the room.  It was obvious that the boy, Ranma, and his 
lover Akane had not been involved in lovemaking that night, but 
Shampoo clearly had been.  That left Ranko to be Shampoo's lover, 
something that Shampoo had not revealed to her previously. 
 
Cologne wasn't bothered much by Shampoo's homosexuality; such 
unions were not uncommon among the villagers, though they were 
seldom admitted to publicly to the children.  When the souls of the 
villagers were reincarnated, it became almost impossible to deny a 
love that spanned centuries, no matter the sex of those involved.  She 
herself, when she was young, had journeyed to Japan in search of a 
thief and... 
 
Cologne suddenly looked closer at Ranko.  She had gotten a feeling 
of deja vu from the girl and her mother earlier in the day, but now 
she suspected... 
 
Cologne:  "Go to your mother and show her this." 
Ranko:  "What?  Why?  I'm not your slave!" 
 
Cologne took out a necklace from under her shirt and gave it to 
Ranko before hitting her out the door. 
 
*************** 
 
Ranko briefly considered going back to fight Cologne, but her 
curiosity got the better of her.  What was so important about the 
locket?  She opened it on her way to her room, but saw only two 
paintings, one on each side, of two beautiful young women. 
 
As she dressed and went to her parents room, she figured that one of 
them must have been Cologne when she was young (however long 
ago that was), and the other must have something to do with her 
mother.  She listened at the door, but didn't hear anything, so she 
knocked and went in. 
 
Nodoka held out her hand and Ranko put the necklace with the locket 
in it.  As Nodoka looked at it she pulled out a locket from her 
kimono.  It was identical to the first.  She quickly turned off the 
surveillance monitor and rearranged the room so that Genma 
wouldn't find anything out of the ordinary when he finished his shogi 
game with Soun. 
 
*************** 
 
Nodoka:  "Bring Kasumi, Tofu, and Nabiki to Ranma and Akane's 
	room." 
Ranko:  "But..." 
Nodoka:  "No buts.  This is important." 
 
Ranko was mystified.  She didn't understand why the locket seemed 
so important to her mother, but she did as she asked.  Nodoka entered 
Ranma and Akane's room. 
 
Cologne:  "And how is your Marital Arts School, child?" 
 
*************** 
 
Nodoka struggled to remember the stories her grandmother passed 
down to her, especially those about the locket.  Long ago, before her 
grandmother's time and even before that, there had been her family's 
practitioners of the Marital Arts schools.  One of her ancestors had 
been challenged to a duel in front of a foreign girlfriend; upon 
defeating her challenger and killing him (not for the duel - for the 
indiscretion of revealing the secret in front of a innocent) she was 
unable to kill the girl.  That had been the origin or the locket; in 
exchange for her silence on the matter it would mark a debt to be 
paid. 
 
Nodoka:  "You are the heir to this locket?" 
Cologne:  "It is mine."  [takes back the locket] 
Nodoka:  [surprised] "That would make you... Cologne-chan, the 
	chinese party girl?" 
Cologne:  "I am." 
 
Everyone except Cologne, Nodoka, and Shampoo fell to the floor at 
the suggestion that Cologne could at one time have been a 'party girl'. 
 
Nodoka:  "What do we need to do to fulfill the vow?" 
Cologne:  "Train my great-granddaughter in the marital arts." 
 
Cologne left out the other 'greats' that connected her to Shampoo.  
Nodoka smiled; she had not expected things to be so simple.  
Normally, that request would have been outside the bounds of even 
the debt, but Nodoka knew of Ranko's feelings for the girl.  Given 
Ranko's stubbornness and her love for Shampoo, she doubted if she'd 
just let Shampoo leave once the training had been completed. 
 
Nodoka:  "I would accept, except that I believe my daughter's the one 
	to take up the burden." 
Ranko:  "Really?" 
 
Cologne frowned.  She suspected the feelings that Shampoo had for 
the red-haired girl, but she wanted to spread the secrets of marital 
arts to her amazon sisters as soon as possible.  Reincarnation meant 
having to wait two or three generations before the knowledge would 
be gained for the whole village.  But Cologne saw Ranko and 
Shampoo look at each other and she relented; she remembered what 
it was like to be in Shampoo's situation, though it had been a long 
time ago. 
 
Nodoka:  "But."  [everyone paid attention]  "Shampoo can not stay 
	here." 
Cologne:  "I accept." 
 
Cologne instantly realized that this would allow her to keep most of 
her influence over Shampoo.  Technically, she was bending the laws 
of the village, but the rewards far outweighed the risk. 
 
Ranko:  "Mom!" 
Nodoka:  "No, Ranko.  On this point I must remain firm.  Shampoo's 
	presence here can only lead to rumors that could destroy the 
	dojo and possibly our school.  I cannot allow that.  Ranma 
	and Akane are 'married'.  Tofu and Kasumi are engaged.  
	What excuse are you going to use with Shampoo?" 
 
Ranko became quiet as she could not argue against her mother's 
point.  Cologne suddenly used her staff to touch Ranma and Ranko in 
the chest. 
 
Ranma and Ranko:  "Hey!" 
Cologne:  [chuckling]  "Just a little insurance to remind that you are 
	blood villagers.  Come, Shampoo, we must return to the 
	restaurant." 
Ranko:  "I want her to stay." 
 
Ranko took Shampoo's hand, glaring at Cologne.  Cologne knew that 
Ranko's independent nature was causing her to rebel against her, but 
also knew that Shampoo would follow her orders if it came down to 
that.  And she knew that everyone in the room knew it as well. 
 
Cologne:  "I see no harm in letting her stay, as long as her training 
	starts tonight." 
Shampoo:  "Aiya!  Thank you, great-grandmother!" 
 
Shampoo hugged Cologne and watched as she hopped off to their 
new home. 
 
*************** 
 
Nodoka returned to her own room.  Turning on the monitor, she saw 
what was happening upstairs and started to record the encounter for 
later comment.  Since she started to hear Genma and Soun finish 
their shogi game, she again replaced everything into its hidden state; 
once she finished she opened her locket and looked at it. 
 
Inside were two paintings, not of Cologne and her ancestor, but of 
herself and Kimiko.  Nodoka sadly smiled at her departed lover.  
Genma walked into the room looking a little depressed and sat down 
on the floor. 
 
Nodoka:  "What's the matter, dearest?" 
Genma:  "I lost the shogi match to Soun." 
Nodoka:  "Well," [taking out their futon] "there are other things to 
	win at." 
Genma:  "Are there?" 
 
Genma looked at his wife.  Nodoka took a long time in setting up 
their bed, crawling around on all fours to make sure each corner was 
straightened out.  Genma watched his wife's ass as it swayed with her 
every movement. 
 
Nodoka:  "You always win with me." 
 
Nodoka smiled as Genma crawled behind her and started to fondle 
her buttock.  His touch, as always, excited her.  Nodoka turned 
around and started to undress him. 
 
*************** 
 
Nabiki got up to leave. 
 
Ranko:  "Do you have to go, Nabiki?  I thought I'd... introduce 
	Shampoo to everyone." 
Nabiki:  "I have tests tomorrow, Ranko.  Maybe tomorrow night." 
 
Nabiki kissed Ranko on the lips and smiled at her.  She then kissed a 
surprised Shampoo on the lips as well, and left for her own room.  
Ranko noted that of those remaining, she, Shampoo, and Akane were 
in panties, Kasumi was in a nightgown, and Ranma and Dr. Tofu 
were in boxers.  She thought that at least they were dressed for what 
she had in mind. 
 
Akane:  "We hadn't planned on anything tonight, but..." 
Ranma:  "But if Shampoo's so important to you, we can make an 
	exception." 
 
Ranma was still a little uncomfortable with the idea of having 
another man in the room while he was making love.  Dr. Tofu also 
looked uncomfortable, but both soon forgot it by concentrating on 
Shampoo.  Ranko held Shampoo's hand in her own.  Shampoo 
wondered what she had gotten herself into; her grandmother hadn't 
explained anything about this 'marital arts' to her. 
 
Ranko:  "This is my lover, Shampoo."  [to Shampoo] "Who do you 
	want first?" 
 
Shampoo started at the question.  It seemed as if Ranko was saying... 
 
Ranko:  [whispering] "This is what it means to be my lover.  
	Sometimes.  Sometimes it'll be just me.  But tonight, we will 
	all share.  Which one do you want first?  Ranma?  Tofu?  
	Akane?  Kasumi?  Me?  All of us?" 
Shampoo:  "Really?" 
 
Shampoo looked at the other women.  They returned her gaze 
reassuringly.  Shampoo blushed. 
 
Shampoo:  "Can Shampoo have... can Shampoo have Ranko and 
	Ranma?" 
 
Akane smiled.  With their curse, it would be like making love to the 
same person in both forms at the same time, which was how she felt 
the first time she was between them.  She squeezed Ranma's hand 
and walked over to her sister and Dr. Tofu.  Akane felt a strange 
calmness; she knew that Shampoo wasn't in love with Ranma and she 
wasn't jealous. 
 
Kasumi:  "Why don't we do the tower today?  You go first, Akane." 
Ranko:  [turning around]  "The tower!  What a great idea, Kasumi.  
	Shampoo, you'll have to go first." 
Shampoo:  "What Shampoo do?" 
Ranko:  "Just watch Akane." 
 
Shampoo watched as Akane sat down in front of Dr. Tofu, then as 
Kasumi came up to sit behind her sister.  She found herself returning 
to an aroused state as Kasumi reached around to play with Akane's 
breasts and trail kisses across her back.  Shampoo suddenly felt 
Ranko doing the same to her. 
 
Shampoo closed her eyes and concentrated on the Ranko's hands 
pinching her nipples.  She could feel Ranko's breasts flatten against 
her back, the nipples poking at her skin.  She felt Ranma's hands slip 
in to cup his sister's tits. 
 
Ranko slipped her hand down to Shampoo's pussy and slipped a 
finger inside.  She then signaled Ranma and turned around so that 
Shampoo was between the twins.  Nearby, Ranko could see Dr. Tofu 
sitting cross-legged and Akane descending onto his manhood.  
Ranma was also sitting cross-legged and Ranko guided Shampoo to 
sit in his lap. 
 
Shampoo looked down the front of her body as Ranma's spear 
approached her opening.  She saw the tip touch the space between 
Ranko's fingers holding her open; then he started to slowly invade 
her body.  Shampoo was glad Ranko controlled her rate of descent as 
she lost control of her legs.  She didn't know what she would have felt 
if she had been forced to accept his cock all at once. 
 
Shampoo:  "Ooh, Shampoo like..." 
Ranko and Ranma:  "Are you ready?" 
 
Shampoo felt her body moving, letting Ranma withdraw from her 
pussy, then letting him back in until he could go no further.  Ranko 
knelt behind her to play with her breasts and clit.  Ranma's hands 
were on her ass and controlled the tempo of their joining as their 
tongues played and touched and entwined.  Her hips were under his 
control, and she felt her insides part for his invading member.
