Gah, this took forever to send cause my ISP went nuts and the dialups
stopped working. But none the less here it is, much delayed. -.-;

[Shinnosuke wanders down the streets of Nerima. He see's a small shop with
a large sign that reads Nekohanten. He enters the cafe and looks around. A
purpleish haired girl bounces out to great him.]
Shampoo: Nihao, how can Shampoo help you?
Shinnosuke: I'm looking for the Tendos, can you tell me where they are?
Shampoo: Hai, they not too far from here. Why you want Tendos?
Shinnosuke: I have a little score to settle. What can you tell me about
them?
Shampoo: Airen live with them.
Shinnosuke: Your husband?
Shampoo: Ranma beat Shampoo, so we will be married. Why you ask so many
questions?
Shinnosuke: Ahh, an Amazon.. But do you not know that the one named Akane
holds your "Airen"'s heart?
[Shampoo hangs her head.]
Shampoo: Shampoo make much better wife for Ranma. Much better than violent
pervert girl.
Shinnosuke: Perhaps we could help each other out.
Shampoo: What you talking about?
Shinnosuke: How about we make a deal, you help me settle the score with
the Tendo's and I'll be sure Akane is dealt with properly.
Shampoo: I no want to kill anyone. Beside, Shampoo very busy while
Great-Grandmother out of town.
Shinnosuke: What if I promise that I won't kill her?
[Shampoo stands silently for a few moments before she nods her head.]
Shampoo: Is deal.
[Shinnosuke grins wickedly before dropping to his knees and becoming
surrounded by purple smoke. Shampoo steps back knocking over a cage
holding Mousse in duck form. The cage smashes open on impact. The purple
smoke wisps around Shampoo and enters her ears. Mousse quacks loudly then
flies out the door and lands on a near by street light.]
Shampoo: (Devil's voice thinking) This is becoming even better than I
thought.
[Shampoo turns to leave then remembers Shinnosuke. She turns to see him
trying to stand himself up.]
Shinnosuke: Where am I?
Shampoo: I won't be needing you anymore.
[Shampoo picks Shinnosuke up by his shoulders and drags him outside, then
around to the side of the Nekohanten. She wields her bonbori and delivers
blow after blow to his head. Soon his face is a barely recognizable mass
of blood. Shampoo shakes the blood from her bonbori and walks back into
the Nekohanten. Mousse nearly falls of his perch before he remembers he
can fly. He takes off and heads towards the closest place he can find..
Ucchans.]
Voice: D..did I just see what I thought I did?
Voice Two: If you seen what I did, then yeah.. we better go warn Ranma.
[Two boys run side by side away from the Nekohanten towards the Tendo
training hall.]
(-\*/-)
[Shampoo stands over a stove preparing some ramen, humming to herself. She
puts the finishing touches on the bowls then places them in her delivery
box. She picks up the box then heads outside to get her bike, then
remembers the body.]
Shampoo: Well I guess I can't just leave this here.
[She drags the body completely behind the cafe, then places it inside the
large dumpster. She picks up her ramen then climbs on her bike and heads
off to make her delivery.]
[Tendo residence. Everyone is sitting around the table impatiently. Ranma
breaks the silence.]
Ranma: What is taking Kasumi so long. She left for the market over an hour
ago. I'm starvin'
Akane: Shut up Ranma, you're always hungry. She has only been gone twenty
minutes.
Ranma: Well it feels like an hour.
Akane: Whatever.
Ranma: (Muttering) Kawaiikune..
[Akane pulls out her mallet and slams it over Ranma's head. Nabiki perks
up.]
Nabiki: Did you hear that?
Soun: It was only Akane flirting with Ranma.
Akane: What did you say?
Nabiki: Not that daddy, some one is at the door.
Akane: I'll get it.
[Akane stands and walks to the door. She slides it open and steps back
after seeing who is there. She furrows her brow.]
Akane: Ranma! It's for you.
Shampoo: Actually, I've brought you guys some food.
[Akane tilts her head looking perplexed.]
Akane: Umm, when did your Japanese get so good?
Shampoo: (devil's voice thinking) Uh oh.. (Shampoo) What you talking
bout? Want food or not?
[Shampoo walks past Akane, who is standing there scratching her head. She
shrugs and turns to close the door when Hiroshi and Daisuke nearly run her
over.]
Hiroshi and Daisuke: Akane!
Akane: Whats wrong guys, you look like you've been running all over
Tokyo.
Hiroshi: It's Shampoo, she she's flipped out or something.
Daisuke: Yeah! We seen her beat the hell out of this guy! We have to tell
Ranma.
[The two start to walk into the dinning area. They stop dead in there
tracks when they see Shampoo handing out bowls of ramen. The yell and turn
and run for the door, nearly knocking over Akane for a second time. Akane
walks back to the table and sits down beside Ranma.]
Ranma: What's wrong with them?
Akane: I don't know.. I think they've been up all night watching horror
movies again. You remember last time that happened.
Ranma: (Laughing) Yeah, they thought the old lech was a pod person.
Shampoo: Shampoo need to be excused for a moment.
[Shampoo stands up and walks out of the room. She walks around the house
making mental notes of room locations. She quickly comes back down stairs
and rejoins the Tendos.]
Shampoo: Shampoo must go now, is very busy at Nekohanten with out
great-grandma.
Ranma: (Shoving food in his mouth) See ya later Shampoo. Thanks for the
food.
Genma: (Doing the same) Yeah, thanks.
[Shampoo lets her self out, and gets on her bike and rides back to the
Nekohanten. She puts out the "Close for the day" sign and closes the door.
Shampoo drops to her knees and is engulfed with purple smoke, which
quickly swirls around and solidifys.]
Devil: (Cracks knuckles) Now for the fun part.
[The devil snaps her fingers and turns back into the smoke. The smoke
swirls around then seeps outside through the crack under the door. It
forms itself into a small cloud, then heads towards the Tendo's.
Meanwhile:
[Hiroshi and Daisuke stand by a street light, which turns on as dusk
approaches.]
Daisuke: We.. have to do something..
Hiroshi: But.. what?
Daisuke: I don't know..
Hiroshi: Let's go .. talk to Ukyou.
Daisuke: Yeah.. maybe she can help.
Hiroshi: Or.. at least.. beat Shampoo with that.. spatula of hers.
[The two start running again, this time towards Ucchan's]
