Bubblegum Splash!
Written by Mike Koos


I guess you could say this is the work of a parallel universe. Maybe 
a rip in the space-time continuum caused the worlds of BGC/BGC! and
Ranma 1/2 to collide... or maybe this story is just the work of 
someone with a little too much free time on his hands. :)


Early one afternoon in downtown MegaTokyo...
At a recording session, Ranma is laying down a few tracks for her new
single, "Love Letter from Jhusenkyou."  Her band - Ranma and the
Counterparts - is slowly climbing the top 100 charts in MegaTokyo,
and things seem to be looking better each day.

Director: (signalling) That's it!  All done!

Ranma sighs, laying her headset on the stool.  Her manager and
father, Genma, applauds as she leaves the recording booth.

Genma: You were wonderful!
Ranma: Oh...?  You really think so?
Genma: Certainly!  You'll be in the top ten in no time.

She smiles, laughing.

Ranma: I certainly hope so.
Genma: (with a gleam in his eye) I'm glad you're in a good mood. 
       I've got someone I want you to meet.
Ranma: Hm?  Ore ga...?
Genma: Now what did I tell you about talking like a boy?  Wait here.

He reappears with a girl roughly about Ranma's age, whose long, raven
hair has been stain-dyed red.

Genma: Ranma, this is Ayumi.
Ayumi: (awkwardly) ...Hello...
Ranma: Hi.  (To her manager.)  What's she here for?
Genma: She's your new partner.
Ranma: PARTNER?  Since when did I need a partner, baka?
Genma: Ranma, your temper...
Ranma: Shut up!  If things are going so great, why'd you pull this 
       stunt on me?

She storms out, slamming the door - quite effectively.  Most of the
studio feels the aftershocks.

Director: ALEX!  ARE YOU PLAYING WITH THE AUDIO LEVELS AGAIN!?
Genma: (to Ayumi) Don't worry, she'll get used to you.
Ayumi: (crossing fingers on both hands) I hope so!

Half an hour later, in a burger joint, Ranma is still fuming.

Ranma: Damn!  (gulps down more of her hamburger) I should've known.
       (drink) ...Always does this to me... kuso-manager...
Voice: Ranma, is that you?  It is!

She almost chokes, but thinks better of it.  Yet when she sees who's
approaching...

Kunou: Mind if I sit here?
Ranma: Whatever... I'm almost finished.  Aren't you supposed to be on
       duty or something?
Kunou: I, Tatewaki Kunou of the AD Police force, have finished my
       duties for the day.
Ranma: (rolling her eyes) Wonderful.  Hey, aren't you going to call
       me your "pony-tailed girl?"
Kunou: Why would I do a stupid thing like that?
Ranma: (turning to her food) Just checking.
Kunou: MegaTokyo is especially beautiful at night.  We could go on a
       date and I'll be happy to show you the splendor of it all.
Ranma: On the other hand, some things never change.

She gets up to leave.

Kunou: What about our date?
Ranma: Don't be silly.  You know I can't be seen with AD Police
       officers.

Cut to Ukyou's aerobics studio, "U-chan."  Today, Ukyou herself leads
the instruction - in a leotard that would have most of the men in the
class leering at her, if there were any.  She laughs to herself at
the thought.

At the AD Police Headquarters, Shampoo is typing away at a computer
terminal.

Shampoo: Sheesh!  Why do I always get stuck with Kunou's work just
         so he can go chasing after Ranma?

Kunou's partner, Hikaru, walks by.

Hikaru: Doing Kunou's work again?
Shampoo: (pencil in mouth) Yeah.  You're his partner, Hikaru, can't
         you do something about it?
Hikaru: I......
Shampoo: Aw, come on.  Stand up to him!
Hikaru: Every time I do, he gives me that "Respecting your elders"
        speech...  I don't know, I'm just not one for confrontation.
Shampoo: (winks) Then you're in the wrong business.
Linlin: Shampoo, you have a call on line two.
Shampoo: Thanks...
Shampoo: (answering call) Hello?  Yes, it's me.  ...No.  Really?
         I'll be there as soon as I can.  Bye!

Shampoo: Linlin, can you take over these incident reports for me?
Linlin: Okay!
Ranran: I'll help!
Hikaru: Something wrong?
Shampoo: (over her shoulder as she leaves) One of my friends is in
         the hospital!
Linlin: (whispering) Her friend didn't SOUND sick.
Ranran: (whispering) How many times this month are her friends going
        to wind up in the hospital?

Hikaru stands alone, puzzled.

Cut to Ranma on her motorcycle.  She checks behind her; no one was
following her.  But Kunou had a habit of showing up when no one
needed...  er, expected him.
She pulls to a stop in the rear of the Silky Doll, Akane's lingerie
shop.
Fortunately for Akane, it was Ranma who had called in.  Otherwise,
they never would have found her on the road.  Which was exactly how
Ranma preferred it.
Akane's younger brother, Ryouga, meets her at the door.

Ranma: What's up?

Whatever it was Akane had called in the Knight Sabers for, must have 
been important.  Ryouga was clearly shaken, and considering his
character profile, something that upset him must be serious indeed.

Ryouga: Come in and see.

In the store, everything is a mess.  Displays are overturned, windows 
are broken, and merchandise is everywhere.

Ranma: Not again.

Shampoo and Ukyou peer through one of the broken windows.

Shampoo: Hey, what happened here?
Ukyou: It must have been a boomer.
Shampoo: It doesn't have to be the work of a boomer.
Ukyou: Why not?
Shampoo: (grinning) Remember last time?

Ukyou covers her eyes, lowering her head in disgust.

Akane: Come on in.

They gather in the Knight Sabers' "headquarters."

Ranma: So, was it a boomer?
Akane: Yes.  (stands) A rather small one, but a big pest, I'm afraid.
       It appeared out of nowhere and started grabbing underwear.
       Then it was upset that none of it hadn't been used, and
       started to go after the customers.
       That's when things started to get out of hand.

(6-plus second flashback sequence of the boomer going after the 
women, in an almost juvenile, but familiar manner.)

Ryouga: He threw me through a window with what looked like an old
        smoking pipe.  If I ever see him again...
Ryouga: (attention wandering, staring) ......
Akane: (realizing what Ryouga is staring at) Cut that out!
Ryouga: I'm sorry, Akane-san.  Excuse me, I think I'll go practice my 
        martial arts techniques now.  (He leaves.)
Akane: Okay.
Ukyou: So what are we going to do?
Shampoo: We have to make MegaTokyo safe for all women!
Ranma, Akane, Ukyou: (nervously) ............

Ranma: Yeah.  Right.
Ukyou: Sure.
Akane: This is serious!  Who knows what kind of problems that boomer
       might cause?
Shampoo: I'll bet this is the work of that ex-Genom scientist, 
         Kodachi.  It fits right in with that warped mind of hers.
Ranma: (snaps fingers) Hey, yeah, it does kinda look like it.
Ukyou: Well, what are we waiting for?
Akane: We don't have any leads.  We'll need to do some investigating.
       But first...
Ranma: Uh, oh...
Akane: (produces food from nowhere) ...I'd like to know what you 
       think of this dish I've created.

The three Knight Sabers look at the food, each of them fearing the
worst.

Ranma: (backing away) I...  uh, ate on the way here.  Yeah, and
       besides, I've got to start looking for leads right away...
Ukyou: Right!  I know a few places where we can start.
Shampoo: Hey, wait for me!
Akane: HOLD IT!!
Akane: What are you three so scared of?  It's just food.  Now sit
       down and try some.
Akane: I'm sure you'll love it!  (leaves room)

Ranma, Ukyou, and Shampoo resign themselves to their fate and try 
the food.

Ranma: I had a feeling that's what it would taste like.
Ukyou: You too?
Shampoo: (sticking out tongue) She never even told us what this was.
Ranma: (low voice) I think I know the first place we should check.
Ukyou: Oh?
Ranma: The drugstore.  I think I'll need some medicine to get over 
       this...

Akane: (walks in) So how was it?

The Knight Sabers snap to and pretend to be enjoying - or rather, 
have enjoyed the food.

Ranma: (casually) Oh, it was okay.
Ukyou: Wouldn't change a thing.
Shampoo: ............ (passes out)

Elsewhere, at an abandoned warehouse overshadowed by the traditional 
ominous atmosphere...

Sasuke: Are you sure the Knight Sabers will know it's you behind the
        Happosai boomer?
Kodachi: Yes.  You don't think they're as stupid as the AD Police,
         do you?  I know what they're capable of.

She laughs - a hollow, grating laugh that echoes all around them.

Kodachi: (using throat spray) I love that effect.
Kodachi: It was because of the Knight Sabers that I lost my job at
         Genom.  I'll never forgive them for that.  No...  I've got
         something quite horrible planned for the next part
         of my plan...!
Sasuke: (shocked) You don't mean...  Not the Azusa model boomer?
Kodachi: Why, Sasuke, thank you!  That's MUCH WORSE than what I
         originally had planned!

Sasuke: It is?  Uh... what DID you have planned?
Kodachi: You don't want to know.
Kodachi: Now get back to work.  You still haven't cleaned up all 
         those black rose petals yet.

[EDITOR'S  NOTE:  Due  to problems with space and safety concerns, the
scene  which  would  normally  be  shown  here  - featuring the Knight
Sabers  putting  on  their  hardsuits  -  has  been  removed from this
version.  It's also likely that this scene will be cut from a U.S. dub
of  Bubblegum  Splash!, so if you can find an unedited version of this
story, treasure it highly.]

The Knight Sabers search far and wide through the lesser-viewed parts
of MegaTokyo for clues to where the scientist and her boomers are
holed up.  In pairs, Ranma with Akane and Ukyou with Shampoo, they
check opposite ends of the city.

Ryouga: (over communicator channel) Akane-san!  We've got a report of 
        a boomer at the Fujimura recording studios.
Ranma: (gasp) That's my recording studio!
Akane: (solemn) Then we'd better get there right away.  (Opening a
       channel to Ukyou and Shampoo) Ukyou, Shampoo, how are you
       doing?

(Cut to Ukyou and Shampoo...)

Ukyou: Lousy.  Especially since Shampoo had to have some donuts. 
       (To Shampoo) How the heck do you always manage to eat those
       with your hardsuit on?
Shampoo: (swallowing donut) I thought you knew.
Akane: Just keep on the lookout.  Ryouga says that a boomer has been
       spotted at Fujimura Studios.  Ranma and I are on our way now.
Ukyou: Okay!
Ukyou: (Looking at Shampoo) Coffee, too!?  How the heck do you do
       that?
Ukyou: (short pause) ...Hey, that wouldn't help wash the taste of
       Akane's cooking out of your throat, would it?
Akane: (over communicator channel) I heard that.

Ranma and Akane find the studio in even worse shape than the Silky 
Doll had been left in. Oddly enough, even though the damage was
great, there were no telltale signs of explosive force having been
used - no burn marks, no bullet holes... But tiny fragments of glass
lay scattered all throughout the shell that had once been a recording
studio, flung far from the window they had once been a part of...
much like the studio crew which lay on the floors, even imbedded in
the walls in some cases.
One of the technicians begins to come around.  Ranma pulls him out of
the wall.

Tech: Huh, where...  what...  The Knight Sabers!
Ranma: Yeah, yeah.  What happened here?
Tech: It was awful.  (faint flash of recognition) Say, haven't I 
      heard your voice somewhere before?
Ranma: I don't think so.  Now what happened?
Tech: A boomer... looked like a little girl... we let her in.  Next
      thing we know she's grabbing things and happily giving them
      names, and when we tried to stop her... (nervously swallows
      hard)
Akane: Yes?  Go on.
Tech: She started crying and screaming like you wouldn't believe.  At
      first it started out at normal levels, but it quickly became
      enough to shatter all the windows and blow the doors off their
      hinges.  After that... I think I passed out. 
Akane: Thank you.  Mind if we look around?
Tech: No.  Go right ahead...

Except for the sounds of armored feet crunching through glass 
remnants and studio personnel finding out exactly which of their
senses were missing, the studio is almost deathly silent.

Akane: See anything that wasn't here before?
Ranma: (crouching over things on the floor) ...You mean aside from
       this letter of challenge from Kodachi?
Akane: How can you tell it's from Kodachi?

Ranma shakes the letter.  A few dozen black rose petals fall to the 
floor.

Ranma: (reading the letter) "Knight Sabers!  This is but an example of
       what I have in store for you.  If you have the courage, come
       to the old abandoned warehouses on the waterfront."
Akane: Is that all?
Ranma: Well...  (paging) ...there's about a page and a half of
       written-in laughing.

She shakes the letter again, and a few dozen more black rose petals
fall.

Akane: It figures.  Tell the others what we've got.  I'll look for
       more clues.

Ranma: (over comm. channel) Ukyou, do you have anything?
Ukyou: A stomachache.
Ranma: Aside from that.
Ukyou: No, not really.  I just don't understand how Shampoo can
       manage to eat more.
Ranma: You should try eating with my manager sometime.
Ranma: Anyway, we've been challenged by Kodachi to a fight at the
       waterfront.
Ukyou: The waterfront, again?  Why does everyone always pick the
       waterfront?  I'm still picking the fish scales out of my
       hardsuit from the last time.
Ranma: I dunno...  It's gotta be a time-honored tradition or
       something.
Ukyou: (to Shampoo, sighing) Come on, let's go.  You've had enough
       cake for tonight.

At the waterfront, a small group of shadowed figures stand before a
boat that is pulling in.

Kodachi: (calling to the crew) Excuse me, would you mind clearing 
         out?  There's going to be a battle here, and I don't want
         anything or anyone to get in the way.
Ship Captain: You're kidding, right?  Ma'am, I suggest you clear
              out and let us take care of our business.

Kodachi signals to her boomers, who neatly take care of the ship by
tossing it a few hundred yards into the ocean.

Kodachi: I do so hate it when no one listens to me.
Sasuke: (rolling his eyes) ......
Kodachi: The Knight Sabers and the AD Police are on their way.
         Everything is going according to plan.
Sasuke: The AD Police?
Kodachi: I needed a warm-up for my boomers.

Meanwhile, the Knight Sabers are making their way toward the
waterfront.

Shampoo: (listening to the AD Police frequency) The AD Police are on 
         their way to the waterfront!  Someone must have informed...
Ranma: Kodachi.
Ukyou: Things are going to be a lot tougher with the AD Police
       getting in the way.
Ranma: Not if Kodachi's boomers get to them first.
Akane: That's what I'm afraid of.  We'd better get there quickly and
       keep them from killing themselves.
Ranma: Even Kunou?
Akane: (thinking about it) Well...
Shampoo: (sternly) Akane...!  Hmph!  If he gets killed, I'll have to
         do even MORE paperwork.  He'll be more of a pain dead than
         alive.
Ranma: If you say so.

Expecting the worst, a small contingent of AD Police has been
deployed.  Kunou leads the way from inside one of the ADP's massive
powered suits.

Hikaru: (driving alongside) Are you sure you want to go through with
        this?
Kunou: The AD Police have become soft.  We must show everyone that we
       can handle anything that comes our way!

Hikaru sighs.  Of course, Kunou was probably attempting to prove
himself just as good or better than the Knight Sabers, or in the very
least show off to Ranma, as well.  Then again, Hikaru didn't
understand why she simply chose to ignore Kunou, either.

The ADP arrives on the scene just minutes ahead of the Knight Sabers.
Kodachi stands bravely out in front of her force, laughing mockingly
all the while.  Her voice is boosted electronically - not that she
really needed it.
Kunou, disappointed by the annoying racket coming through the suit's
external pickups, wishes he'd come up against a bigger challenge.

Kodachi: You're late.
Kunou: I make my own schedule.
Kunou: The time has come for you to stop disrupting AD Police
       business with your childish rampages.
Kodachi: Speak for yourself, dear officer.

The Knight Sabers arrive.

Shampoo: We're too late...
Ukyou: Not yet.  They're still insulting each other.
Akane: If I didn't know any better, I'd swear they were related.
Ranma: Shampoo, did you bring any popcorn?
Shampoo: Why are you asking me?

Ranma shrugs.
Kunou and Kodachi's insult match crawls on and on, as the onlookers
on all sides settle in for a long, boring wait.
And wait.
And wait.
And wait.
Ranma finally switches her suit's external pickups back on.

Ranma: That does it!  I've had it!
Shampoo: What are you going to do?

So...
Kunou and Kodachi are so involved in their insults that they don't
notice Ranma come between them.

Ranma: (very annoyed) SHUT UP!!!  Can we please get on with
       the fighting now?  This OAV is only an hour long!
Kunou, Kodachi: ......

Ranma walks back to the other Knight Sabers, who are speechless as
well.

Kunou is the first to make a move.  He draws his powered suit's
wooden sword and charging Kodachi and her boomers.

Kodachi: !!

She immediately recovers and sends a glance off to her right,
signalling toward Kunou with her chin.
A small, shadowy form launches itself toward Kunou, who assumes a
defensive position.  The Knight Sabers move in at a distance to form
their own line of defense.
And then, the Happosai boomer notices the Knight Sabers.

Happosai-Boomer: (wide-eyed) Oh...!

The boomer starts toward the Knight Sabers, but Kunou places himself
between them and the boomer.

Kunou: Halt!
Ukyou: How noble.
Ranma: How stupid.

This was very true, as the boomer didn't stop.  At the last possible
minute, it moves to leap over Kunou, tagging his head in the
process...
...and knocking the ADP officer's powered suit flat on its back.

Kunou: (pulling himself up) How dare you...

He comes to the sudden realization that there is a low hissing noise
coming from somewhere nearby.  Kunou looks down at himself to find
that he is holding a medium-sized happoudaikarin.

[...boom!]
Kunou is sent flying toward the horizon.

Ranma: Baka.

The Happosai-boomer continues to make a beeline for the Knight
Sabers.  Seeing this, Kodachi breaks into a megalomaniacal laugh.
Hikaru, who had thought it safe to switch his external pickups back
on, switches them off.

Akane: Look sharp, everyone!  That boomer is still headed toward us!

But when they looked, the boomer was no longer there.  Or approaching
from any other way, for that matter.
Then Shampoo looked down.
Having completely removed the chest plate to Shampoo's hardsuit, the
Happosai boomer was snuggling up to her.

Shampoo: KYAAAAA---!!!
Happosai: Beautiful young girls in armor - how sweet!

Ranma pulls the boomer off Shampoo and place-kicks him in Kunou's
general direction.

Ranma: Kono... HENTAI JIJII!!

Shampoo takes the opportunity to catch her breath, though it's
short-lived as Kodachi orders another attack.

Kodachi: Get them!

Kodachi's boomers swarm out to greet the Knight Sabers with the
Azusa-boomer at the front.

Azusa: Waah!  Oh, how cute!  Marianne, Charlotte, Katerina, Adrianne,
       won't you come home with me?
Knight Sabers: (shocked and repulsed) ......!!
Akane: (sighing) Knight Sabers, go!

The Knight Sabers contend with the boomers in the manner which they
were infamous for.  Ranma, on the other hand, was here one minute and
there the next, putting hapless boomers who happened to be in her way
out of their misery.  Akane and Shampoo take the straight-on approach,
while Ukyou attacks from a vector of her own.

Hikaru turns to see a bruised and battered Kunou limping toward their
car, minus the powered suit he'd been forced to eject from.  Once
there, he stops to silently watch the Knight Sabers taking care of
the boomers.

Hikaru: You don't have to worry.  The Knight Sabers are taking care
        of everything.
Kunou: Shut up.  Don't you find it dishonorable that the Knight
       Sabers take care of our problems for us?
Hikaru: Actually, I've come to expect it.

Azusa starts wailing - a forceful blast that knocks Ukyou and Akane
to the ground.  Shampoo pushes forward against the force.

Shampoo: ...unh  ......maybe a counter-frequency...

She digs in as much as possible and starts her sonic counterattack.
Shampoo's alternating frequencies travel every which way between her
and the boomer - any surviving boomers not overwhelmed by the
hopelessness of the battle risked having their insides become their
outsides.
Ranma saw what was happening and began to move closer.  Several
boomers appear in her path to keep her busy.

Ranma: Kachuu tenshin amaguriken!!

She breaks into a series of rapid punches too quick for the eye to
see.  Her close-fighting style caught the boomers off-guard; they had
been expecting to keep a slight distance.  No matter.

Okay, so it did matter.  They weren't accustomed to this type of
fighting.

Shampoo is knocked back a foot or three by the Azusa-boomer's wail.
Shampoo boosts her attack, though it still seems to have no effect.

Ranma: (over comm. channel) Maybe Kunou's voice would work better.
Shampoo: Cute.  I could use some help, you know.
Ranma: Only if you keep that thing occupied!  I've seen what it can
       do to a person.
Shampoo: I'm sure it isn't as bad as what happened last time...
Ranma: Nothing could be that bad.
Ranma: I'll be right back!

True to her word, she returns - hauling the remains of Kunou's ADP
powered suit behind her.  Ranma throws the suit near the boomer.

Azusa: Oh, what a cute little...

Azusa hugs the suit, calling it Francois.
Shampoo cringes; she clearly hadn't expected this.
Ranma had a quicker reaction time than her, and for the life of her
Shampoo still couldn't figure out exactly why.  In the time it took
her to get over the sheer lunacy of the situation, Ranma was already
disabling the boomer.

Azusa: Oh, what a beautiful explosion...  KAWAII!!  [Boom!]

Although the boomer itself was largely left intact, Kunou's powered 
suit had been completely disintegrated.  Hikaru had to choke back a
laugh - the ADP suits were *very* expensive, and Kunou was going to
have to answer for throwing away a perfectly good one.  Kunou glares
at Hikaru.

Ranma: Ya...yattaze...  heh, that was fun.

Kodachi's voice rings out all around them, in stereo, surrounding
everyone on the "battlefield."

Kodachi: I'm glad you enjoyed that!

Several dozen more boomers appear and encircle the battlefield's
perimeter, the Knight Sabers and the remaining AD Police who hadn't
left for less boring and predictable things.

Ukyou: Oh, geez...

The boomers tighten the circle, as those within shift to face outward
in all directions. And from the midst of the ring of boomers, the
Happosai-boomer reappears.

Happosai: Oneee-chaaaaaaan!!!

The Knight Sabers collectively swallow hard.  Before anyone gets
close enough for hand-to-hand combat...

Ryouga: MATTE!

Ryouga leaps into the area between the two rings.

Akane: Ryouga-kun!
Ranma: Ryouga...
Ukyou: It's a wonder he found his way here.
Shampoo: (to Ukyou) Shh!

Ryouga: (to Kodachi and her force) How dare you change the rules of
        this fair fight!
Ranma: Well, it wasn't exactly fair... for the boomers.

Akane elbows Ranma.

Kodachi: Who are you?
Ryouga: A concerned citizen. And I shall never forgive you for trying
        to kill the Knight Sabers!
Kunou: (to Hikaru) You see!? No one respects us!

Kodachi: You had better get out of here now, boy, before you get 
         hurt.  This fight has nothing to do with you.
Akane: (quietly, to Ryouga) Ryouga, go home.  I don't want you to get
       hurt.
Ryouga: .........
Ryouga: (to Kodachi) It does now.
Ryouga: SHISHI HOUKOUDAN!!!

The energy builds to massive proportions and even Kunou and Kodachi
withdraw from the sight.  Just before the energy is about to explode
outward in a column-like form, Ryouga notices what has happened to
Shampoo's hardsuit... and gets a bloody nose.

EVERYONE becomes caught in the explosion.

Much later, Kunou, Hikaru, and the rest of the AD Police peel
themselves from the ground.  Kunou handcuffs a dazed Kodachi.

Kunou: Where are the Knight Sabers... and that boy?
Hikaru: (standing over the words, "Knight Sabers" engraved in the
        ground) I don't know... but they left their calling card.
Kunou: They've done it again.

The AD Police leave, no one having noticed the engraving Shampoo had
also left on the rear of Kunou's car: a silly face above the word,
"Baka..."

-- EPILOGUE --

Shampoo: I'm hungry.
Ranma: Just like last time.  And every OTHER job we go on.
Akane: (to Shampoo) Okay, but you're buying.
Akane: You're awfully quiet, Ryouga.  Why did you come in the first
       place?
Ryouga: I couldn't let you have all the fun.  Besides...
Ryouga: ...I was lost.

Ranma, Akane, Ukyou, Shampoo: !!

The Knight Sabers beat Ryouga up.
