The World's Worst MST! Subject: [FFML][MST parody][romance][R.5] Ukyo tries Razorclaw X -------------------------------------------------------------- Razorclaw X: Welcome to the World's Worst MST, where we strive to make utter fools of ourselves by pretending to do a MST-ish review. And tonight, I've only managed to pull away one guest for our show.... Tamasaburo: I am of the Japoness Royal Guard... Tamasaburo! Razorclaw X: Sure you are. In case you didn't know, she was the only one available (ref. Saber Marionette J); Baiko was off recording a song for the second SMJ CD. Tamasaburo: Waste of time. Razorclaw X: Don't you say anything that doesn't take a single sentence? Tamasaburo: Prepare. To. Die. Razorclaw X: .... >Ukyo Tries >Original story by Panda Head Studio >Written by Maggy Liquier >Ranma =BD Characters is owned by Rumiko Takahashi >Mina and Sakura are not important Razorclaw X: Sure they are! > "He is just so adorable=85" Mina squealed as she finished telling everyo= >ne >about her boyfriend. Tamasaburo: This chatter is unneccessary. Razorclaw X: What do you know? You're a marionette. Tamasaburo: I am proficient in over thirty forms of martial arts, and adept at using fifty weapons. Do not question my authority. Razorclaw X: Still, something must have garbled the formatting. There's breaks all over the place, and it's unwieldy to read. > A small group of girls, sat around Mina and who had listened to her stor= >y, >sighed with awe. Ukyo had overheard the conversation from a distance. She >remained silent gulping down her soda, eavesdropping on the conversation.= > She >cursed at herself for forgetting to make lunch. =20 Razorclaw X: NOW she curses herself? Wow, talk about delayed reaction. Tamasaburo: Unsuitable for normal means of torture. Razorclaw X: .... > "It's so great having a boyfriend=85" Sakura laughed. "They are always t= >here to >comfort you whenever you need." X: It's great how you can laugh and say something at the same time. T: Am I mistaken, or has the suspect failed to complete her statement? X: You mean the 'whenever you need?' Add a 'then.' > Ukyo placed the can of coke on the table. She studied the X: I thought coke was illegal. T: Contraband. Surrender now, and come with me quietly! X: Not now! >little bodies = >of >water that cling to the can, as she absorbed everything the girls were ta= >lking >about. X: Osmosis in action? >She looked up for a moment. She usually didn't hang out with these >girls. X: And she's hanging out with them now? Fair Warning: Unwieldy, long paragraph that could easily be broken down into smaller paragraphs ahead. >She usually sits by herself for lunch. X: 'sat,' not 'sits.' >Female company usually is n= >ot >her choice, due to the fact that she was raised in an all boy's school. X: The school raised her? T: In Japoness, there are those who are unfortunate enough to be without a father, therefore.... X: Shut up. T: Do not speak in such manner to the Royal Guard! >She >studied the chattering girls who sat near hear. She looked at the head >girl, >Mina, and wondered how a girl that bubbly could get a guy. She studied >her >with green eyes. The uniforms didn't do much for fashion, which is >probably >the main purpose, but she doubted that Mina wore that dress outside of >school. X: About time to start a new paragraph? >Ukyo began to study Mina. Her face was homely. It had the stereotypical f= >lat- >nose round square face. She spoke with thin lips and a square jaw to hold= > it. >Her eyebrows where obviously plucked thin to the point it looked like she= > was >drawing with no eyebrows at all and to draw it on herself with a pen. X: Great description. So she's an anime character? T: What is 'anime?' X: You're one. T: I am a Royal Guard marionette; how can I be anime? X: .... Und= >er >those very thin lines called her eyebrow, resided two crescent mooned X: Awesome! Ukyo knows what eyebrows are! sha= >ped >eyes. Ukyo noticed that when Mina laughed, her eyes almost looked shut an= >d >began to wonder if she can see when she laughs. Ukyo giggled at the thoug= >ht.=20 X: Obviously, she has nothing else better to think about than contemplate her navel. T: What is the meaning of such institution if their marionettes fail to function in an efficient manner?! X: They're not marionettes; they're girls. T: Girls do not exist. They are extinct. X: In your world, yes. T: They appear quite similar to marionettes. X: Well, duh. >Ukyo felt her face as she had studied the Mina. Her skin was pale as peac= >h and >her eyes wide and beautiful. She put her long hair down over her X: Magically, a mirror appeared so Ukyo could study herself. shoulder= > and >looked at it. Wasn't long hair supposed to be attractive to men, Ukyo >wondered. If so, was it doing anything for Ranma? She looked at Mina's ha= >ir. >It was short, like Akane's. X: Bzzzzz!! Plot Point! Ding, Ding!! >Ukyo blinked for a moment. What was she doing? She shook her head as if t= >rying >to knock those alien thoughts out of her head. Why was she comparing X: Help!

T: That appears quite counterproductive. >Ukyo paused at the thought of the word. "Feminine=85" she tested the word= >, as if >hearing it for the first time and trying to pronounce it. She grabbed the= > can >of soda and looked at it, as if were going to answer her questions She ha= >d >usually been in between feminine and tomboyish.=20 X: I thought she was a tomboy. T: What is a tomboy? X: It's where a girl acts like a guy. T: That appears counterproductive. There are more than enough men.... >"Hey, that guy over there is kind of cute," one girl said to Sakura. >"He's too beautiful to be a guy," another had said. >"Perhaps he's a bishounen," a third chick added. >"Gay or a pretty boy?" the fourth girl asked. >Mina and Sakura looked at the subject in question and blinked. "That's Uk= >yo," >they both said. >"Ukyo? That's a cute name," Chika number three squealed.=20 >"No, Ukyo is a girl," Sakura said. She was in my gym class. > "But Ukyo is a guy's name. That's strange to give a girl a male name," G= >irl >number two informed. X: We have Chika, Sakura, Mina.... what kind of a name is 'Girl number two?' T: In Japoness, it is not uncommon to label marionettes as such. X: They're NOT marionettes!! T: Noise level is reaching intolerable levels. Cease immediately, or answer to me! X: ..... You're no fun. > The fourth girl's eyes opened wide. "That's so cool." She exclaimed.=20 > The girls turned their attention to the fourth young lady. "That's, like= >, the >hottest craze in America," she said. X: And you know that because you, like, talk like one? > Mina looked at Ukyo. Ukyo realized that she was staring right at the gro= >up. >Before she knew it, their eyes were all fixated on her. She snapped her >attention straight back to her soda. She began to wish she brought more t= >o >eat. For a cook, she was pretty unprepared for lunch. X: Why? T: Very inefficient.... X: Don't say it. > Mina went back to talking to her group. Ukyo tried not to pay any attent= >ion >to them. Suddenly, she realized that Mina was by her desk. "Would you car= >e to >join us for lunch and some chit chat?" Mina asked. > Ukyo was shocked. She studied Mina's face again, this time looking for d= >eeper >means. She only found kindness. She nodded her head shyly. She wasn't use= >d to >dealing with other girls. She scooted her desk over join the others. X: What about Akane? Or Shampoo or Kodachi? THEY'RE GIRLS. T: Your second warning. X: .... Saku= >ra >and girl number four parted to let her in.=20 T: It appears that your 'girls' are designated with marionette serial numbers. > The final bell rang. Weary students who lacked the energy for X: That was fast. T: There was a break prior to the paragraph. X: Hey, great! You're catching on to this stuff! There was? >school was >revitalized with thoughts of a free afternoon. Today was a Saturday and m= >any >students decided they need a break from all the books, so it was time to >party. Ukyo had clean up duty, so she had to stay behind a little while. = >She >looked out the window to see happy students leaving the campus in pairs. = >She >sighed. Having clean up duty on a Saturday really bites.=20 > As she swept the floor, her mind began to wonder back to the conversatio= >n she >had during lunch.=20 >=09 > "I'm Arisa," the first girl said. > "I'm Eiko," the second girl said. > "Hi, my name's Fei," the third girl smiled. X: They DO have names! But I thought the first and second girls were Mina and Sakura? > "Watashi no namie wa Megumi desu" the fourth girl said. X: Do you know what that means? T: Her name is Megumi. X: Not Hayashibara, by any chance? T: There is no information pointing in that direction. > Ukyo wondered if she would remember those names. Being introduced to a g= >roup >of people is always a hassle, she thought. They had an easier time, all t= >hey >had to do was remember one name, while she had to remember four more.=20 > "It's a pleasure to meet you all," Ukyo said with a respectful tone hidi= >ng a >hint of worry.=20 X: Need comma after 'tone.' > "Why do you wear a boy's uniform?" Fei asked.=20 > Ukyo felt that was that was the strangest question ever asked then thoug= >ht >about it. It wasn't strange to her, just to others. "I just do," she said. X: Looks like Ukyo's been eating her Apple Jacks. > The group grew silent. > Ukyo looked down for a minute. > "Say, is that all you had?" Eiko pointed to the empty soda.=20 X: Oh no! The HORROR!!! T: Final warning! X: Fine, I'll behave! > "Uh=85" Ukyo was afraid to say anything else. She already felt embarrass= >ed a >bit by her reply to that last question. "Yeah," she struggled to say that= > one >word. > "Tsk tsk" Sakura moved her pointer finger left to right. "A girl should = >have >a well balanced diet," she giggled as she tried to look motherly, "and th= >at >young lady, is not a well balanced meal." X: Looks like they showed you, Ukyo.

These girls are being fairly kind to her, and a few minutes= > ago >she was judging them. Her feeling of being ashamed seemed to multiply.=20 >=09 T: Emotions are a burden. X: It's what being human is all about. T: It is a human failure. X: Not really.... T: Inefficient. > Ukyo finished up sweeping the room. She placed all the chairs and tables= > back >in their original position. She looked at the clock. It was now six and t= >he >sky had gotten a bit dark. Lost time, lost money, she thought.

Her mind kept running ba= >ck to >the conversations with those girls during lunch. They were mostly talking >about guys, fashion, and whatever buzz was going around at the time. She >stopped walking for a moment. She walked to a window to study her own >reflection. She had been wearing a boy's uniform since she came to Furink= >an >Highschool. She remembered how Ranma had mistaken her for a boy. What if = >she >had arrived in a girl's uniform. Would he have been attracted to her? He = >had >called her 'The Cute Fianc=E9e'. What if she acted a bit more like she wa= >s >supposed to.=20 > "What if I acted a bit more feminine," she whispered.=20 > "Feminine=85" she pronounced the word again.=20 X: Sounds just like the anime episode "Ukyo's Skirt." Only there's no Ranma. > Sunday flew by pretty fast and before the students of Furinkan High knew= > it, >another dreary school week had begun, a week of books, studying, and agon= >y. T: I do not understand. Institutions such as school exist to enrich human minds. X: You'd make a great human. T: That is quite insulting.

Akane growled as she was slightly pushed to the side and = >away >from Ranma.=20 X: 'What do you want?' 'Why are you here?' 'Where are you going?' > Ranma turned to see who had forced her way in between him and Akane.=20 > "Uk-chan?" Ranma stuttered the name. "Is that you?" X: 'What did you do to my Ucchan?' > "Ukyo?" Akane muttered. Her anger was replaced with surprise. > "Ranma, we'll be late for class," Ukyo slipped her arm around Ranma's an= >d >dashed off with Ranma stumbling after.=20 > Akane stared at the two in shock.

He looked as if he had just returned from a long X: Gee, I wonder who that could be. campi= >ng >trip. His bandanna, which was usually wrapped around his forehead, now re= >sted >loose around his neck.

T: He lacks basic direction sense. X: You DO understand. > The roads were empty except for a few old folks. Judging by the looks of >things, Ryouga figured that it was probably a school day and that the tim= >e was >somewhere between seven and four. He wondered a little up the street X: Oh, so now Ryoga can't tell time either? into= > the >shopping area. The adults looked at him as if he was a delinquent skippin= >g >school. Perhaps they thought of him as a thug or a mobster. Ryouga sighed >wishing that that he could go to school.

You can do it! > "Where the hell is Ukyo?" Ryouga muttered.=20 > A small line of hungry students had started a line behind Ryouga and all= > had >the same thought in their heads. Where the hell is she? X: They seem pretty stupid. If Ukyo wasn't there, shouldn't the restaurant be CLOSED? T: That is a practical practice. > After about what seemed to be an hour, students began to try else where = >for >food. Ryouga didn't dare leave the place; he was afraid he would end up i= >n >another town. He was hoping that Ukyo would show up and take him to the T= >endo >Dojo. X: That's not all you want.... >Soon, he found himself alone in front of the neglected restaurant. = >A low >grumbling sound emitted from his stomach and he sighed. The pain was gett= >ing >worse. > No more students where walking home. The streets were deserted again. Th= >e >only ones passing by adults that were doing shopping and non-uniformed te= >ens >running errands. Ryouga spotted Akane among the groups of shoppers.=20 > He ran to her. "Akane=85" he yelled out. He was filled with joy to see h= >er.=20 >Akane turned around hearing the sound of her name. She looked at him. He = >could >see feelings of anger in her face. He cut his run a few feet in front of = >her.=20 X: 'I feel your pain.' >"Is something wrong?" Ryouga asked. >"That jerk Ranma=85" she started. >"What has that idiot done now?" Ryouga clenched his fist. He was ready to= > run >of and try to find the fiend that had upset Akane. But a second notion po= >pped >up in his head. He had to comfort Akane first. "Do you care to talk about= > it?" X: Ryoga talking with Akane over her problems? Who are you, and what have you done to the REAL Ryoga? >Akane and Ryouga talked over a small meal at a nearby Vietnamese restaura= >nt. T: I expect the local toughs to vandalize the premesis shortly. X: Not really. >Ryouga put down the chopsticks. He just finished his second bowl of phong >noodle. He felt a little better, hunger wise, but his mind was at trouble= X: 'In turbulance' might make more sense. >.=20 >"And when I left to find Ranma to walk home, he had already left with Uky= >o=85" X: "Ranma and Ukyo!!" They're going to do 'the thing!' T: What 'thing?' X: You know... a man and a... never mind. >Akane muttered. She looked sad and worried.=20 X: So she ISN'T sad and worried? >The first thought to hit Ryouga was that this could be his chance. He wan= >ted >to tell Akane how much an asshole that jerk was. He wanted to tell her th= >at >she deserved better, that she deserved him. He wanted to tell her how muc= >h he >would take care of her. He wanted to confess how he had longed to tell h= >er, >how he had harbored his feelings for her for the longest time.=20 X: Long, contrived, cliche. Predictable how this'll turn out. T: Judging from your tone, he will not take the initiative. X: Precisely. >Then he looked into her eyes. >He wasn't what she was looking for. She loved him. It was obvious, even t= >hough >she had never openly said it. Her actions had explained all. Akane was wo= >rried >for the first time that Ranma might actually be taken away from her. Even >though they were not an official couple, even though that the whole thing= > was >their parent's idea, she had loved him deep down, but failed to admit it, >maybe even to herself.=20 >Ryouga saw all this from the story she had just told him. Why hadn't he >understood this before. The perfect chance to steal Akane away from T: Stealing is a crime, no matter what the form. X: So glad you agree. Ranma= > and >he fails to take it. Ryouga looked at the bowl, which only the soup remai= >ned. >He dipped one of the chopsticks and swirled the soup around. He, then, pl= >aced >it in his mouth.=20 >He didn't want to be happy if she wasn't happy. Ryouga tasted a hint of t= >he >soup on the chopsticks. It wasn't his happiness, he thought, which was mo= >re >important. X: .... >He looked at Akane. She was deep in thought. She had told him >everything of what had happen. Even though she hadn't confessed her feeli= >ngs, >actions had spoke louder then words today.=20 >"Akane," he said. "It's obvious you are worried and a little jealous=85" >Akane looked at him, "JEALOUS?" her voice was a tad bit higher then it sh= >ould >have been. A few people that were in the store gave a casual glance to se= >e >what the commotion was about. >"Why would I be jealous of him?" She looked as if she was about to scream= >" >"Akane, lower your voice," Ryouga was noticed that a few people decided t= >o >turn their attentions to them. >"If he wants to run off with Ukyo, then the two could go out for all I ca= >re," >She looked very pissed. =20 > Ryouga looked her deep in the eyes, "If you couldn't care less, why are = >you >making a fit of it right now?"=20 X: Ryoga's being the caring friend? Why doesn't he just shut up? T: This Ryoga is voluntarily giving away information. It appears we will not have to resort to using 'Mr. Prickly' this time. X: .... > "Uh," Akane seemed to be stumped on that last remark. > Ryouga took a deep breath, which would probably classify as a sigh. "= >It >seems to me that you love him." > "I do not," Akane protested, as if it was a conditioned reflex.=20 > Ryouga was having a bit of trouble continuing. He didn't want to give he= >r up >to Ranma, his rival. But she was in love with him. He wanted his happines= >s, he >wanted her, but what people need and want are two different things. He ne= >eded >her to be happy.=20 > "Yes you do," Ryouga calmly stated, looking away from her face. > "Ryouga=85"=20 > "I'm sure Ranma is very much in love with you," Ryouga felt as if he was >going to start crying.=20 > "Does=85 does he?" Akane stuttered. > "I'm very sure of it," Ryouga risked the chance to look in her eyes, to = >show >that he was dead serious. X: 'Hi, I'm Ryoga, the matchmaker! I know everything there is about love!' >"He doesn't act like it, running off with Ukyo after class like that," Sh= >e >coldly stated. > "I'm sure he does. Ukyo and Ranma had been friends since childhood. I'm = >sure >that if you two were meant to be, you needn't worry," Ryouga was now >struggling to stop the tears. Each word he said, it stabbed him hard.=20 > "I just don't what to do Ryouga," Akane turned her sights to the table s= >he >was sitting at.=20 > Ryouga spied a trickle of a tear run down her check.=20 > "Akane, I want you to be happy," Ryouga confessed. "That is all that mat= >ters >to me." > "Ryouga?" Akane looked at him. "You're a really great friend." X: Kiss him! Kiss him!! > Ryouga looked straight at her. "Really?" X: Slap him! Slap him!! > "Really=85" > Ryouga looked at the ceiling. "You know what Akane, I say you find him, = >and >tell him how you feel." X: 'I say you find him?' > Akane sighed. "I don't know. I don't think I could handle a rejection." X: Oh, and you couldn't handle all the times he's insulted you, either? T: This Ranma does not sound respectable. X: Yes. > "Akane, I guarantee you won't be rejected." X: Or your money back! > Akane nodded. "Thank you Ryouga, you're one of my best friends." Akane g= >ot up >and placed a few yen on the table. "This meal is on my Ryouga" X: YOUR Ryoga? > Ryouga pushed the money back to her, "I'll take care of it." > "No," she said as she pushed the money back and ran off. X: Wait, so it's AKANE'S money? > "Wait," Ryouga called to her.=20 > Akane was already at the door. She turned to her friend. "Ryouga, thank = >you >kindly. I don't know what I would have done without you." She smiled to h= >im. X: I want the old Ryoga back. The alien in Ukyo's head must've gotten him. > Ryouga waved and smiled. He looked at the money. He pocketed it as he to= >ok >out his wallet and placed his cash where it was.=20 X: What does that do? You're taking Akane's money, dammit! T: So, he is a thief, after all! PREPARE TO DIE!!! > "This is on me, Akane," he muttered to himself. > As the waiter picked up the tab, Ryouga thought about what had happened.= > He >released the waterworks, and the tears began to run freely down his cheek= >s. > "I'm just a friend," he said. The waiter looked at Ryouga, as if she tho= >ught >he was talking to her. He looked at the waiter. "It's better to be a frie= >nd >then nothing, right?"=20 X: How man of you to be introspective.

T: This Akane character is quite tragic and unfortunate. X: Shouldn't you say that about Ukyo? T: In her ignorance she fails to see the criminal mind within Ranma. I shall have to intervene soon. X: You've got my vote. > Prologue X: Shouldn't that be 'Epilogue?' > A quite Tuesday afternoon, Ukyo's restaurant was partially filled with >students. The door opened and Ryouga walked inside. He was a bit famished= X: WOW! He actually MADE it here!! T: So, the thief returns to the scene of the crime? X: No, this is a different restaurant. >. He >spent the whole day trying to exit Nerima but to his surprise, ended up g= >oing >in circles.=20 > "I heard about what happened yesterday Ukyo," Ryouga said. X: From who? Which one's the gossip, Akane, or Ranma? > "You had your chance to steal away Akane," Ukyo said. X: Apparently, both. They can't shut up, can they? T: Inefficient. > "We're just friends," Ryouga said.=20 X: How man of you. > Ukyo put down her spatula for a second. "Friends," she muttered.=20 > "You're new hairstyle is cute," Ryouga said. X: 'You look just like Akane.... ' > Ukyo fluffed her hair. "I want it long again." > "Perhaps it's time for change?" Ryouga said, leaning over the counter. T: The criminal is making unwanted advances toward the one called Ukyo. X: Sex fiend! Sex fiend!! > "It's hot," Ukyo pointed with her spatula. > "I know," Ryouga calmly removed his elbows from the burning counter.=20 X: 'Let's go upstairs for a quiet chat, shall we?' > "You hide pain well," Ukyo pointed out. X: The more so you can hurt him. > Ryouga smiled. "I just want her to be happy," he said. X: SSSUUUUUUURRRREEEE you do. T: 'Mr. Prickly' is set and ready to go. X: Make it double. > Ukyo gave Ryouga a glare. "You're weird." > "Perhaps," he said, "but it's better to be friends then nothing at all."= T: Shall I dispatch him now? > "Well, I'm just here to ask for directions out of Nerima," Ryouga said. > "Leaving again?" Ukyo asked. > "I have no reason to stay here," Ryouga said. "I decided to drop my grud= >ge >against Ranma." X: How man of you. Now release Ryoga now, or prepare to die. T: Prepare to die. X: You know, I like you're style. T: Thank you. > Ukyo thought for a second, "If you have nothing else to do, do you want = >to go >out with me?"=20 X: Ryoga and Ukyo!! Ryoga and Ukyo!!! > Ryouga was speechless. It took him a while to register what had been jus= >t >said. > "I guess," he said. "To where?" X: 'Come upstairs, and let me show you.' > "Anywhere you want to go?" Ukyo said with a smile. "But you sit your but= >t >right there till I'm done. I don't want you to get lost or anything." > > > The End X: NOW you can dispatch him. > Okay, I feel that I need a girlfriend now!!! X: I think so too. >AARRGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! T: 'Mr. Prickly' likes him. X: Think so? >Anyway, a few words about this story. It turned out to be a bit longer th= >en I >had expected. X: You've got no argument from me. T: Do not waste my time. >I almost ended up killing Ukyo after reading the "Incident = >at >Ucchan's" story. Well, I hope you all enjoyed reading this fic as much as= > I >enjoyed writing it. Anyway, I'm off again. =20 X: And thus concludes The World's Worst MST. T: I have captured the rogues Ranma, Ryoga, and the author. I am in need of more torture devices to make them confess their crimes. X: Oh, well... there's a water wheel out back. Anyway, in conclusion, the story seemed long, and was too predictable. Until Tamasaburo gets those aliens out of Ranma and Ryoga, we'll be watching, and waiting. Good night. T: Baiko does not know what she missed. -------------------------------------------------------------------- "Decepticons FOREVER!!" --Ravage, former Decepticon "You've gotten tricker since last time.
