Kasumi's New All-Purpose Kitchen Knife (Multi-syllable only in the
title.)
"She's done WHAT with it?"
"Don't give me that! You could have guessed. What else would she do?"
"My God!"
"I have to say, it did give me a scare."
"Should have known she'd do something like that. I mean, that sword . .
. what was it made of 'gain?"
"Tin."
"Yeah. That tin . . . WHAT???"
"I said, 'Tin.'"
"Tin??? I thought the sword was hard 'nough to crack a gem!"
"It is. I think it had to with the way it was made. How hard it was,
that is."
"Look. You sold it to her, let her grind it down, and now you tell me
that it's soft!"
"Di'nt say that. It IS hard."
"But you still sold it to her! What am I going to tell Mom?"
"Tell her to get a new one."
"She'll kill me! No, worse, she'll make me kill me!"
"You don't say."
"You mean you planned to have that?"
"Yes. With what you owe me, it'd be a good deal."
"Life? Take my life?"
"Yup."
"World's best sword, used to chop meat. And I have to pay for a thing
you sold to your sis'."
"You're smart. . . . Well . . . I do keep you on your toes."
"Aw, damn you! What's your prob'."
"You DO owe me a life now."
"Huh?" The boy looked as the she took out a new sword.
"That . . That's . . ."
"A fake? Yes."
"Thank you!" The boy ran off with the sword.
"This will be fun."

Okay. Here's an snswer to the One-Syllable challenge. The title's not
made of single syllable words, but then again, neither is "One-Syllable
Challenge."
This really is all one-syllable. I've known people who speak like this.
It's short, but hey! That's life!
(Note: Nabiki sold the Saotome Family Sword as a Kitchen Knife to
Kasumi. Ranma's just found out.)
