He looked outside the window and then back to her, "I think� I think I
met the Mother. I was trying to use Zweihander's crystal, but it
wouldn't exactly listen to me. So, I kept on trying until I passed out.
Then I met her."
"The Mother?"
He nodded in response.
"So, you've seen her as well?"
"Yeah. Certainly not something you see everyday. That's for sure�"
She leaned against the wall, smiling at her husband, but that smile
soon vanished with his next words.
"She was actually kinda cute too."
From outside Tokyo-2, a small man-shaped object was seen flying through
the roof of a smaller house and into low earth orbit. Behind it, a
glowing blue light, accompanied by an ear shattering growl, was in
pursuit.

WH: First of all, let's just say I'm gonna catch holy-heck from Blade
about the whole Tarou thing. {Snicker} At least I gave Panty boy a
better name. But their Teknos power gave them both once heck of an
advantage.
Next, I don't know the exact spelling of the Jewish coming of age
festival, the German word for 'Two-Handed Sword', or the Brazilian
dancing martial art. Would someone be so kind as to help me with this
one?
Next; the reason for Ranma's horrible track record against Nodoka? I
wanted someone OTHER than Panty Boy that Ranma couldn't beat. And also,
anyone who's been chatting with me knows of my obvious bias for
Nodoka-sama. Also, it would kinda get rid of the obvious 'Ranma always
wins' pattern that you see in fics. Because you will NOT see Ranma
winning in my fics. In the manga and anime, it would seem that Nodoka is
severely outclassed by Ranma, but no one said that she could be more
powerful than him
Now, the little 'distractions' they both gave came from different
sources. The bit about Ranma's came from an OLD mst, where they were
showing a stinky soap opera of General Hospital. Don't ask exactly where
the joke was used. Nodoka's action was inspired by a VERY twisted Ranma
fic I will never write now, the other half came from Tom Lear's song
about Oedipus Rex. {shudders}
Concerning Nodoka's moves, her family name before she took Genma's was
Kamiryu, meaning God Dragon, and her moves are somewhat based on her
heritage. The Tamashi Tate=Soul Shield and the Ryuki Booeiha=Dragon
Spirit Defense Blade. Having a Japanese dictionary is REALLY helpful
when coming up with new names. ^_^
In all the Ranma manga and anime I've seen, I have not seen Ranma
concede to defeat ONCE. Well, looks like that's changed a bit. Bwa ha
ha� or was it Gya ha ha?
Now the deal with the crystal, I would imagine that when a Teknoman
used his crystal, it has a bit of him/herself in it. And when someone
else would want to use it, it would of course resist to the foreign body
trying to make use of it. And without Zewi to keep the crystal corrupt,
Ranma was able to gain control.
I also found that Shara is indeed a real name, but Russian in origin.
What it means I have no idea yet but keep in mind that I will find out
someday.
The thought that Ranma could be set apart from other Teknos by having
both Healer and Warrior powers was mighty intriguing. But still remember
that he will not be the most powerful, just the most flexible. Variceas
is a name I made up myself and its base word is 'variety'. The meaning
is very obvious here.
Shara's true form is something that I thought up as I was typing her
conversation with Ranma. Also, I found a little something that said that
my idea of her real name being Shannon. That name I gave her was Irish
Gaelic for 'wise one'. {Dramatically} Can you feel the irony?
This same scene for Ranma and Shara's true form also gave me
inspiration to divide the Teknos into groups. Every 'child' would be
from a certain element and weapon/animal. Give them all variety in their
powers and abilities.
The Elements: Earth, Wind, Fire, Water, Metal, Matter, Life, Death, and
Time.
The Weapons: Sword, Staff, Hammer, Ax, Scythe, Spear, Arrow, Shield, and
Claw.
The Animals: Dragon, Phoenix, Tiger, Bear, and Serpent.
The Elements signify where their origins of their power come from.
Their weapon� well that's obvious. And the Animals signify how their
powers work. Meaning that if a healer of the Phoenix Staff with the
element of Life, they would be healers of the highest caliber, capable
of bringing back the dead. It's becoming more and more like an RPG, but
it's fun! Woo!
The place where Ranma was given his power was inspired by the final
part of the movie 'Contact', a movie that proves that being alone in
this universe, is an impossibility. I highly recommend seeing it, who
cares if it didn't get any academy awards. But I digress.
Lastly, the classic, 'Ranma gets punted into L.E.O.' is to assure that
years may change people, but they can still stay the same as well.
Until my next fic folks.
