[Ministry of Defense, how may I direct your call?]
"This is Nodoka Saotome, I-I need to speak with Commander
James Bond."
I remember that someone had come up with this idea before, and while I
still believe that it's an intriguing idea, the question that was raised
back then still remains: so what now? Precisely what is going to be the
goal here? Is it going to be something that stars Nodoka, and has little
to do with Ranma? Is it going to be another 'Ranma meets a hithero
unknown member of his family' fic? Is it going to be a Genma bashing fic,
where James Bond is better than Genma in every way?
Of course, if you already have a direction, then I look forward to reading
more.
Oh, and when Nodoka calls England, the Ministry of Defense would be a
waste of time. Officially, James Bond the secret agent doesn't exist.
However, James Bond the salesman of an Import/Export company(the name of
which escapes me at the moment) does exist. She would call the "company"
directly, not the Ministry.

The sardines weren't worth the trouble. A few more shots, then
Ryoga-san would overheat and explode. Ducking around a corner,
I managed to lose him as I entered the ramshackle residence of
my Anime supplier.
One look at his face and I knew that I had been betrayed. "Tell me,"
I insisted. He refused, so I slammed him against the wall.
"Last chance. Where can Ranma-Ranma find good fanfics?"
"Try Jason Liao," he whispered, before he slumped to the floor.
I heard the sounds of a door splintering as I left through the
window, one step ahead of Tendo Heavy Industries...
