The Dragon Incarnate A Ranma 1/2 Fan Fictions Silverbreeze http://cyberlife.gq.nu 20001031 20011026 – Minor changes Author's foreword - I am not sure if this will be a One Shot or a part of a series. I will write it in a open end way. Oh this fiction draws very heavily on "Best served Cold" A great fan fiction I suggest reading it. If I can find it I will put it in the Other's Fanfic section. Though I do weight greatly Satome Kasumi fanfics, I am actually a Tendo-Satome person. Though yes this will be a Kasumi-Ranma fanfic. We watch as Cologne, the mightiest Amazon of her Generation lays down to rest for the night. As she begins to fall asleep she mutters softly to herself, "That son in law of mine has made his choice. We always thought if Shampoo didn't win him Akane would. She didn't, believe me it was a surprise when the change came. It wasn't Shampoo, Ukyo or Nabiki either. I am not sure what happened to Ranma. But he surprised us all. Of all people." Cologne yawns and mouths a name. "Kasumi", as she falls asleep. +++ The Amazon village is burning. How many must be fighting to be winning against the tribe of 500 warrior women. The screams of the maimed and dying. In the council room of the elders Cologne is waiting. She knows that this enemy will not leave without facing her. She knows she is the cause for all this. She remembers. *** Cologne is speaking with Ryoga. He is being non cooperative, "No, Ranma is no longer my enemy. Akane is free, He can have Kasumi, My only problem is he hurt Akane but we will deal with that in the Dojo later today." Cologne shakes her head and taps Ryoga's sleep point. "That just won't do Lost Boy. It won't do at all.", Cologne says as she collects the potions and powders. Slowly but surely she makes Ryoga, a being of pure Rage focusing on Ranma. As Ryoga fights Ranma, Cologne, Shampoo and Moose find Kasumi walking alone back from the market. There is a peaceful smile on her face. Not the blank look that Cologne is used to. That should of warned Cologne but then again the Old Ghoul was not thinking of all that clearly. This was Kasumi., Shampoo attacks with a cry of, "Stupid girl". Kasumi drops her bags and flows, for a moment Cologne thinks she is watching Ranma fight., "I was right all I saw? How long has he been training her? Could they have fooled us so long? Could he of fooled Nabiki too? Is he smarter then all of us? NO! no man is smarter then a Amazon!" Kasumi doesn't speak but then she has always been quiet. She takes Shampoo out in three minutes. Moose in five. "I wonder has he been holding back against Shampoo maybe I misjudged him?", thinks Cologne. Cologne attacks striking Kasumi again and again. Breaking bones hurting her badly. She quickly releases that she will have to run away after this. After Kasumi is unconscious Cologne runs back to China. Leaving Moose and Shampoo behind. *** Cologne shakes her head, "It has been three years, Did I think I would be safe? He killed a god for Akane. What would he do for Kasumi? Do I think I am better then Saffron? I am a fool!" Cologne watches as the glowing light comes closer. A hundred women attack Ranma, a hundred woman die or will soon. Cologne watches as man who was once a boy moves with a speed and grace that makes the Cat Fist seem child's play. She watches as cuts that had landed by sheer number of attacks fade and heal leaving only the mark of blood. Cologne sighs, "He is the Master now." Suddenly Ranma stands before her. His eyes speak volumes Cologne knows she faces a Warrior now not a Artist. The difference you ask? Both follow the same code save for one thing. A warrior will kill without remorse when placed in a impossible position. "Well, Old Ghoul, Ready to Face the Dragon. I need to thank you. In other to save Kasumi I had to let go of my soul and become my destiny. There was a better way to do that. A way that could keep us allies but now is too late. Farewell Ghoul. You tribe is no more. The Children will be taken but the people of China or the Musk, I will not protect the children of a lifestyle that almost killed my wife.", as he finishes speaking Ranma moves so fast he doesn't even blur. He blinks, he teleports. He the full Master of Chi and Ki. The Dragon seems to strikes the air before Cologne many times but even Cologne can not count the two thousand talon strikes that slice her cells apart. Ranma stills and it seems as if he didn't even move. "Farewell Cologne be glad Kasumi lived, or no daughter of Amazon blood would have survived the night except Shampoo who is our friend. +++ Cologne wakes up in a cold sweat and shaking. "That was not a dream.. That was where I am heading. I need to change that. Ranma is the Dragon Incarnate, nothing will stop him. Hurt anyone he names clan or friend and he will find you. A warrior, why didn't I see it. I knew he had potential but to be a Dragon Master??" Suddenly Cologne jumps up. "Shampoo!!!!!" The End
