(Nuriko and B-chan have eloped to Hawaii, Happosai has abducted A-chan and followed the pretty "ladies". In Hawaii the palm trees sway and the coconuts fall on unsuspecting peoples' heads. But enough about that. Back home, in the almighty harem mansion of B-chan, the remainders of her and A-chan's harems devise ways of bringing their girls back. Tamahome rubs a bump on his head -- put there courtesy of Zenki, who is currently picking his ear. Darshu is still reeling from his earlier lynching. Ban in Escaflowne is lying just outside, still being neutralized -- Aren was good enough to use Sheherazad to kick his carcass where everyone could keep an eye on him.)
Ranma: But don't you wanna get her away from Nuriko??
Ryoga: Who me? No. No matter who B-sama ends up with, I'll always love her. I'd gladly die for her sake!
Darshu: Personally, I'd die to look at any lady right about now...
Ranma: Stop eyeballin' me, Schneider.
Aren: The problem is that when you're dealing with an evil as great as Happosai, you need massive countering maneuvers.
Slade: I dunno about countering maneuvers... What we need is massive fire power.
Tasuki: Fire power! That's me! Right here!
Chibi Zenki: "Fire power?" Heh, you're a flaming hemorrhoid is what you are.
Tasuki: Wuzzat, you inadequate squirt?
Chibi Zenki: Who's inadequate? I recall having much more difficulty fitting myself into that bondage leather than you...
Tasuki: That's 'cuz we had to buy you *EXTRA SMALL*!!
Shuramaru: Please, contain yourselves. This is a serious matter.
Shinnosuke: Who are we trying to save again?
All: *Sigh*
Tamahome: I can't go on like this... I *NEED* B-sama back.
Sanosuke: Don't you mean "Nakago"?
Tamahome: Shut up! I was under the influence of a Seed of Possession!
Chibi Zenki: That's right, blame it all on the Seed. You know, Crab-boy, the Seeds don't create desires... they amplify them.
Ferio: Eeewwwww...
Luche: Niinee-san, why was monster-san hugging Tasuki-san?
Ranma: Because, Luche-kun, monster-san and Tasuki-san are in love.
Tasuki: Shut the hell up!!
Tamahome: D-DON'T SAY THAT!! IT WAS THE SEED TALKING!!
Ferio: Is'at so, Crab-boy? Well, l'il Ferio here got the "Seed talking" on video tape...
Sanosuke: Heh, heh... And depending on how badly you want to keep this a secret, well, we can do this the easy way... or we can do this the hard way...
Tamahome: That's blackmail! You scummy jerk!
Ferio: Well, aren't you about as sharp as a marble... Your mother must be so proud.
Lina: I'm glad this conversation is being conducted on a mature, adult level.
Shinnosuke: Who are you?
Lina: Oops, wrong mansion. Let's go, Gaurii! LEVITATION!!
(Lina and Gaurii levitate their ways right on out.)
Luche: I miss A-san...
Aren: Right, we're getting off topic.
Darshu: First off, how are we all getting to Hawaii? I mean, I can fly, but I'm sure as hell not carrying all you idiots on my back...
Slade: Bastard.
Darshu: Someone call me?
Shuramaru: We're in Japan... they're in Hawaii... Wait, how'd they get there in the first place? Why can't we just go the same way?
Ryoga: I can probably get you there!
Ranma: Chances are that Nuriko swam with B-sama on his back. And we don't question Happosai... We just accept that he *is*.
Ryoga: "Swam"? I thought Hawaii was a small prefecture just south of Izumo...
Ranma: You would.
Chibi Zenki: Then we need to fly.
Tamahome: Let's get that "Levitation" girl back in here!
Ryoga: I'll go find her!
(Ryoga gets up and leaves to find Lina.)
Darshu: Bye, Ryoga! Seeya in a couple weeks!
Ranma: With all the Anything-Goes techniques there are, there ain't nothing for flying... But we do get some great hang time...
Slade: Without my gear, I can't fly anywhere.
Shuramaru: As a general rule, oni dont fly much. That renders all of Zenki's, Tamahome's, and my powers useless.
Luche: I thought monster-san was a crab.
Tasuki: He is.
Aren: And Sheherazad isn't equipped for flight either... But you know what is...
(Everyone turns their heads to look outside at Escaflowne, neutralizing.)
Tasuki: And how do you suggest we fix THAT?
Shuramaru: Poor Ban must be dead already.
Chibi Zenki: Nah, I can smell him. He's still pushing air past his teeth.
Aren: Damn, really?
Shuramaru: You don't have to sound so disappointed.
Slade: Hey, Aren, if you can lend me parts from Sheherazad... Well, I know a thing or two about mechanics, so I might be able to patch the dragon up. And Tasuki, I'll need you to weld the metals together.
Tasuki: Heh, no problem.
Aren: It's unbelievable... I'm using my Sheherazad to help Ban.
Darshu: Try not to think of it that way. Think of it as using Sheherazad for the ultimate purpose of bringing back more amusing scenery than Ranma to the harems.
Aren: Well, when you put it *that* way...
Sanosuke: Great, then! We got a plan!
Tamahome: I'll go make refreshments!
