SPACE

     As the sun slowly set over the Earth's horizon, the Satellite of Love
was soon swallowed up by the darkness, as was a pup tent tethered to its
side.  A few moments later though, three circles of light illuminated and
danced around the inside of the tent.

     "This is SO cool!"  Crow T. Robot giggled as his weightless body
bounced around the tent holding a flashlight.

     "Eh, I don't see what the big deal is."  Tom Servo replied, as he
hovered in one place.  

     "Aw, come on, Tom!  Shut off your stabilizers and just let the zero-g
take you away!  Wooooo!"  Crow exclaimed as he began doing somersaults
in mid-air.

     Tom shrugged and did as Crow suggested.  Without warning, Crow
reached out and gave Tom a swat, sending him tumbling end over end.
"Crrrrrroooooowwww... you son-of-a... sayyy, this IS kinda fun!
Yahooo!!!" Tom exclaimed.

     "I knew you'd love it, Tommy!  Hey, how you holding up there, Joel?"
Crow asked as he noticed Joel Robinson struggling to stay upright, his
face pale and sweaty.

     "I-I'll be okay... j-just getting used to it...."  Joel replied with a
nervous smile.  Normally going out into space was out of the question for
him as he was prone to space sickness but the combined pleading of his robot
friends plus the ginger pills Gypsy had recommended to him had helped his
stomach considerably.  Now if he could only stop shaking...

     After a while, the bots grew tired of their makeshift bouncy castle
and settled into a circle with Joel.  "What do you want to do first?  Tell
ghost stories?  Sing a few songs?  Cook us up some beans and pork?"
Tom inquired.

     "Urp... let's go with the sing-a-long first."  Joel grimaced.  "Who
wants to go first?"
   
     "Me me me!"  Crow exclaimed as he reached into his camping bag and
pulled out a Vulcan lute and began to sing off-key.  "Row, row, row, your..."

     "DON'T... even think about it."  Tom growled.

     "Uh, let's do stories instead!"  Joel quickly suggested while snatching
the lute from Crow's hands and tossing it behind him.  "I've got a pretty
scary one from my days at Gizmonic.  I call it... 'The Mega Meal That
Ate Minnesota'!"

     "Ooooh."  Crow and Tom leaned forward, interested as Joel held his
flashlight up to his face.

     "The Mega Meal was kept underneath a heat lamp, long after it had been
prepared at the local G Burger..."  Joel began in as scary a voice as he
could muster.  "One day, a careless janit... cashier forgot to throw the
meal away and..."

     "Wait a minute, this story isn't just a variation of Bill Cosby's
'Chicken Heart' bit, is it?"  Tom interrupted.  

     'Not anymore..."  Joel muttered under his breath.  "No, Tom!  Now
hush and let me continue!"  He admonished before going on.  "Uh, the Mega
Meal was eventually discovered in the morning and thrown out in the
trash... but that SAME NIGHT, an evil robot at NASA forced a bunch of kids
to be shot up into orbit... with Kate Capshaw!"

     "AHHHHH!!"  Crow and Tom screamed in horror as Joel continued with
a grin.

     "But she was the least of their worries as one of the kids had a robot
stalker back on earth, the very same robot that had launched them into
space!  His name was Jynx and he and Max would be friends... FOREVER..."

     "AHHHHH!!"  Tom and Crow dove into their respective sleeping bags
while Joel chuckled at their reactions.  Then a menacing voice spoke up
from behind him.

     "A BOY'S BEST FRIEND IS HIS MOTHER..."

     "Gah!?  Wha!?"  Joel whirled around only to find nobody there.  His
eyes nervously darted back and forth looking for the source of the voice
when he glanced down at his sleeping bag and saw a walkie talkie, from
which familiar chuckling could be heard.  "Oh, it's you, Gypsy. That was
a good one."  Joel breathed a sigh of relief.  "What's up?"

     "Sorry to eavesdrop and interrupt the fun but Robert Rodriguez and
Quentin Tarantino are calling."  Gypsy's voice replied from the walkie
talkie.

     "Aw shoot, just when I'm starting to have some fun.  Okay, reel us in.
Sorry guys, looks like Space Camp will have to wait a while."

     "Space Camp!  That's what you were referencing!  I knew that!
Really!"  Crow whined as the pup tent slowly approached the docking bay
of the Satellite of Love while Tom hummed the Blue Danube...

DEEP 13

     "Oh, look Frank, Earnest P. Worrell and his Second Chance bots have
decided to grace us with their presence... Shall I fire three bullets at you
now or simply parachute a couple dozen snapping turtles onto your
collective butts?" Dr. Clayton Forrester sneered at the viewscreen.

     "Oh CLAP!  I mean, snap!  Or is it faced?  Oh no he... didn't?"  TV's
Frank babbled, confused.

     "Moving right along..."  Dr. Forrester sighed as he removed his
glasses to briefly rub his temples.  "My invention this week was inspired
by two of my most cherished childhood memories.  First, my Viewmaster,
which I stol... er... borrowed from a school chum, allowed me to see the
world from my own bedroom.  Second, the woman next door, allowed me
to see everything else when she undressed in front of her window every
night after 'Dallas'..."  Dr. Forrester sighed wistfully.

     "That's... touching, Dr. F.  But what does..."  Joel tried to
interrupt.

     "Soooo... I decided to combine the two into an invention I like to
call the 'Voyeurmaster'!"  Dr. Forrester held up a blue plastic picture
viewer with an orange lever on the side and brought it up to his eyes.  

     "The Voyeurmaster has been pre-loaded with still pictures of half-naked
women in various states of undress.  Now you can relive those glorious
moments of sexual discovery without risking a parole violation!  Er, not
that I would partake in such a thing myself anymore of course!  This is
strictly for Mad Science!"  Dr. Forrester exclaimed even as he clicked
the lever of the 'Voyeurmaster' over and over.  "What'da think, Joel?"

SATELLITE OF LOVE

     "Oh please!  We've got the internet for that sort of thing.  It's got
Windows too!" Crow retorted.

     "Bah, you kids today with your internet!  Back in my day, a pair of
binoculars and a telescope were the only web browsers I needed and I
can guarantee you any boobs I got a shaky glimpse at back then were
ALL natural!"  Dr. Forrester's image snapped from the viewscreen.

     Meanwhile Joel gaped openmouthed at the rather frank discussion.
"You know, those two arguing... sounds almost one-sided at times."
Tom remarked as Joel nodded numbly before reaching under the
counter to produce what appeared to be a small carton of milk.  

     "Well, sirs, I was born in Wisconsin so occasionally I like to return
to my roots and enjoy a nice tall glass of moo juice.  But then I realized
that not everyone likes the same type of milk and keeping all different kinds
in your fridge is too expensive and possibly wasteful, depending on what
you're using it for.  So, operating on the same concept as the Switch Pitch
ball, my invention this week is a special carton that changes the milk inside
from Whole to Skim and back again with a simple toss up in the air."

     Joel gently tossed the milk up into the air and caught it again.  "I'm
also working on a chocolate/strawberry carton for kids but I'm having
a little trouble with the half & half prototype right now... anyway, what
do you think, sirs?"

*     *     *

DEEP 13

      "Udderly ridiculous, Joel!  Why, that's the cheesiest invention I've
seen since..." Dr. Forrester began.

     "Sir, before you get on a roll, I'm obliged to remind you again that I'm
from *Wisconsin*.  I've heard every cow and milk pun known to man
and then some.  Can we just moooove it along already?"  Joel interrupted
from the viewscreen.

     "Hmph, spoilsport.  Very well then... Frank, if you'll do the honors?"
Dr. Forrester gestured to the left as Cambot panned over to show an imposing
lecture podium with Frank standing behind it.  The mellow tones of a brass
band quartet playing 'Pomp and Circumstance' were heard from a nearby
tape recorder as Frank checked his notes for a moment or two before
speaking the following in a solemn tone of voice.  

     "Throughout human history, the crossover or 'transeo' as it's known
from the first free English to Latin translator we came across on the web,
has played a role in the long, storied history of fanfiction.  What that role
is, no one is quite certain.  Quite.  Nevertheless, a fact not even one
'Stephen Edwin King' would dispute is that crossovers have featured
many many characters doing many many things for many... many pages.
Today... you will bear witness to one such crossover."

     Joel and the bots groaned as Dr. Forrester continued.  "Yes, your
experiment this week has Usagi once again chucking away the destiny of
Sailor Moon like Bobby Flay's cutting board in Kitchen Stadium, this time
to take up the bloody rods of office as dictator of the world.  Her reasons?
Oh-so-petty.  Her actions?  Mind-numbingly evil.  Her outfits?  Well, let's
just say some things NEVER change.  Heh heh heh... oh yeah, there's a bunch
of other anime and Matrix blended in there somewhere too..."

     'The Life I Left Behind, Joel.  Will it leave you behind?"  Frank stage
whispered as the viewscreen winked out.

*     *     *     

SATELLITE OF LOVE

     "Wow... call me crazy but there was something familiar about the style
of Frank's speech."  Tom remarked.
 
     "What?  What was wrong with it now!?  I though it was pompous yet
pithy in a... whoops."  Crow fell silent as he realized he said too much.

     "Crow?  YOU wrote that speech for Frank?"  Joel asked, shocked.

     Embarrassed, Crow rubbed the back of his head.  "Uh, yeah.  I wanted
to see how something I wrote sounded from someone other than us.  You
guys are too close to the source, that is, me!  I needed objective feedback!
I needed...!"  Crow's ranting was drowned out as alarms wailed and
multicolored lights flashed.  

     "We'll discuss this later!  Right now WE'VE GOT FANFIC SIGN!!"
Joel cried out.

(Door 6: It's a metal door with no knob.  Before you can do anything,
it's yanked off its hinges from the other side by a tow truck.)

(Door 5: It's an old fashioned elevator.  Both sets of doors open for
you as you pass through.)

(Door 4: It's made of dominoes.  You tip the lead one over and watch
as the pile slowly lowers until it's half its original size and you
step over it.)

(Door 3: It's filled with cute stuffed toys.  You cuddle them for
awhile before proceeding.)

(Door 2. It's solid black marble. An Ankh floats from behind you and
touches the door. The door vanishes.)

(Door 1: It's a castle gate that rises into the ceiling, revealing a
drawbridge that slowly lowers to the ground.  You cross it
cautiously, looking for moat monsters.)

(Door .7: It's a swirling blue vortex.  Suddenly a large hand reaches
out of its center and pulls you inside.)

     Joel emerged from the vortex into the theater with Tom in his
arms, Crow emerging a moment later and following close behind.
Stepping over the air grate that prevented Tom from entering the
theater on his own, Joel placed him down on one of the theater
seats and sat next to him, Crow sitting on his right.

Crow: Or coherence.

Joel: Such as Usagi's explosive flatulence, Neo's crossdressing, and
Ranma's compassion.


> ***
>
> Year 0.


Tom: Ahh... the last year there was no Christmas hype...


>            "I hate you.  I hate you!"


Joel: So much for the farmer and the cowboy being friends.

Tom: Territory folks can go to hell apparently.


>             Usagi Tsukino, normally a congenial teenager, was livid.  She
> caught her supposed fiancée in the arms of another girl.


Crow: <Mamoru> But it's destiny!  I'll make with the apologizing
and you'll make with the loving...

Joel: <Usagi> Honestly!  You replaced me with Anne Meara?


>            "Usako-" began Momaru nervously.
>
>            "I don't want to hear it!  You know that I wanted to wait until
> we are married.  But, no, you couldn't wait, could you?  No, you are just
> another MALE."


Joel: <Mamoru> Look, just get me a beer and we'll talk about this next
commercial, I promise.


>            "That's not fair, Usagi!" said Rei Hino.  "Nothing happened.
> It was just a hug, for Kami's sake!"


Tom: <Mamoru> She just had her legs wrapped around me
for extra support, honest!

Crow: <Mamoru> She said that her clothes were almost dry!  Just
a couple more minutes and you wouldn't have... noticed... hey, what a pretty
day outside!


>            "But something would have happened, Rei!  Setsuna showed me."


Joel: <Mamoru> Really?  Can I borrow the tape?

Tom: <Usagi> We watched "Booty Call"!  I know what happens
after this!!


>            Earlier in the day, Setsuna Meoh showed a potential vision of
> Momaru and Rei having an affair in the near future.


Tom: <Setsuna> Neat, huh?

Joel: Then she showed another vision of Doc Brown and Marty McFly
with a sports almanac.

Crow: <Setsuna> And if you connect me to a VCR you can set
my timer for future visions, such as... floods!  Earthquakes!  More of
Mamoru and Rei necking like rabbits!


> Setsuna had hoped that this would prompt the Moon Princess in dealing
> with her future husband before a disaster took place, but, in typical Usagi
> fashion, she used her heart instead of her head in dealing with the
> situation.


Crow: <Setsuna> All those weeks of training at the gun range, I thought
she'd get the idea.


>            "But-"
>
>            "No buts, Mamoru.  I...loved you.  And this is how you repay
> that love."


Joel: <Mamoru> But I'm the gift that keeps on giving!  To
everybody!

Tom: What's the current betrayal to love exchange rate anyway?


>            "I-"
>
>            "Good-bye, Momaru.  I hope that you and Rei are happy together."
>
>            And with that, Usagi turned and left the two alone.


Crow: As if this didn't have enough of a "Chico and the Man" vibe
about it...


>            "What am I going to do now?"  Usagi thought.  She was sitting
> on a bench, as she fed the ducks at a pond.  She then saw a pair of swans
> landing on the ponds surface.


Tom: After that came five cranes, the Fifth Amphibious, the Sea
Duck and the Spruce Goose.


>            "At least you two are suppose to be a couple," Usagi sighed,
> as she remembered that swans were genetically pre-disposed to stay
> together.


Joel: <Bobbin Threadbare> Hey, don't get the wrong idea, this is my
mother!


>            "You know, you can do better than this," said a voice.


Crow: <author> Can it, prereader.  Back into your cage.


>            Usagi turned to see Setsuna feeding the ducks next to her.
>
>            "How do you do that?" Usagi asked.


Joel: <Setsuna> Usually you flick the wrist, but make sure you
crumble the bread smaller next time.


>            "Lots of practice.  Anyway, you should have handled that
> 'theatre' a little better than that."


Tom: <Usagi> You think I should've done my impression of Fran
Drescher right after the one-woman-reenactment of Molly Pitcher?


>            "Yeah, I guess.  But I love him.  And he was with Rei of all
> people!"
>
>            "I showed you a potential future.  


Crow: And the other potential future is where Mamoru becomes
Darth Vader, right?

Tom: <Setsuna> Wanna see more?  Then send $29.95 for a
three month trial membership to....


> Had you acted more mature, you could have saved yourself some
> embarrassment.  Now, you practically set that future in stone with
> your outburst."


Joel: <Usagi> Really?  He's responded to nagging and wild
accusations for three years now...


>            "I messed things up again, didn't I?"
>
>            "Perhaps.  


Crow: <Setsuna> Still, you provided me with momentary amusement.  I
came *this* close to smiling.


>    Do you still want to be the Neo-Queen Serenity?  Even without
> Momaru by your side?"
>
>            Usagi thought for a moment."


Joel: <Usagi> I'd settle for him under my feet, if you could...


>            "Sure.  I guess so..."
>
>            "Then take this compass.  It will show where you need to go."
>
>            Usagi takes the compass.  What's so wonderful about this thing?


Crow: It's her night to be a conductor on the Underground Railroad?


>            "And Princess.  One more thing."
>
>            "Yes, Setsuna?"
>
>            "The path that you are about to go on will be marked with
> both triumphs and sorrows.  May you find what you are looking for."


Tom: <Setsuna> Turn to page 83.


>            And with that, the Senshi of Time vanishes.
>
>            "I wonder what she mean by that..."


Crow: <Setsuna> We have to pad out the fic by another twenty pages!
Now, follow that bird!


> Year 2.

 
Tom: <Interviewer> By this time, the Hunza bread had destroyed my
pancreas and took residence in my duodenum.

Joel: Usagi babysits our lord and saviour for $2 an hour.


>            "Hey you JERK!"
>
>            "I didn't do nothing, Akane!"
>
>            "She's just teasing you, you big dope!"
>
>            "See what I have to go through, Usa-chan?"
>
>            "Sigh.  Women!"


Crow: They washed the fanfic in warm water, and all the characters bled
through.


>            It was the graduation day at Furikan High School.  Akane
> Tendo, the heir to the "Anything Goes" dojo was in a festive mood.


Joel: Finally, Phi Delta Tendo is off double-secret probation.


> Not only was she and her fiancée Ranma Saotome, another heir to "Anything
> Goes" school, were graduating, but they were planning on getting married
> in two weeks.  Since they are to have a western-style wedding, their best
> friend Usagi Tsukino would serve as Akane's bridesmaid.


Crow: While the rest of the senshi would serve as the Earps.

Tom: Usagi, ever the voice of reason, insisted on separate limousines.


>            "Honestly, Usagi, it's a miracle that Ranma's graduating
> at all."
>
>            "Hey, martial arts got nothing to do with school."


Crow: Ha!  Tell that to practically every 70's Kung-Fu movie ever made!

Joel: Ranma lettered in Shaolin Diploma Snatching.


>            "But Ranma, you know that people respect a well-rounded
> teacher," Usagi said.


Crow: <Mr. Weatherbee> I'm Fat Daddy Bee and I'm B.I.G...!

Joel: No, I think she means rounded more like Miss Hinako.

Tom: <Usagi> There's a reason they listened to Michelle Pfeiffer.


>    "Heck, even Upperclassman Kuno knows this, and you don't want him to be
> better than you."
>
>            "Yeah, right," Ranma snorted.


Crow: <Ranma> What do you take me for?  A doorman?

Tom: <Usagi> Nope, just a doormat.

Crow: <Ranma> D'oh!


>            Usagi could remember the day she first met Ranma and Akane.


Joel: It was November 11th, oddly enough.


> Two years ago, she was following the directions of the compass when she
> came across a panda hitting a redheaded pigtail girl on the back of her
> head with a sign.  


All: <chanting> ECW! ECW! ECW!


> Usagi, thinking that the panda was a youma, transformed into her Sailor
> Moon guise, and followed it.  Usagi was extra cautious about dealing
> with the beast, since she didn't have any backup.


Tom: She thought about calling Chen Kenichi for possible panda-steak
recipes.


>            As soon as she got close enough, she noticed that the panda
> had taken the girl to a dojo.  There, while the beast was distracted,
> Usagi attacked.            
>
>            "Moon Tiara ATTACK!"
>
>            "Yeeow!"
>
>            "Pop?!" said the redheaded girl.


Joel: <Usagi> Oh great, I just orphaned the Mowgli of Japan.


>            "Oh, my.  You have more guest, father?" said another teenaged
> girl.
>
>            "Hey!  If you want to challenge the Tendo dojo, you got to go
> around!" screamed another girl.


Crow: You've got to challenge nine other fighters and rid the world of
M. Bison first!

Joel: <girl> The save point is in the back!  Once you challenge me, you
risk losing the last five hours of your life!


>            "Of course, you WILL pay for any damage that you may incur,"
> said yet another girl.
>
>            "What's going on here?" said a man with long hair and a
> moustache.


Tom: Ben Stiller is already jealous.


>            "Why the hell you attack my pop?  Not that he didn't deserve
> it, and all, but..."
>
>            "You mean, this thing is YOUR FATHER?"
>
>            "WHAT?!" said everyone from within the residence.

 
Joel: Oh, good heaven.  Lemme guess, we can look it up in our Funk and
Wagnall's?
 

>           After everyone calmed down, it was revealed that the Panda and
> the girl were victims of an unusual curse.  


Tom: For when the full moon rises, they go to Taco Bell to relieve
their munchies.

Crow: Three little words spoken by either of them brought down
a terrible downpour of green slime.

Joel: They both were labeled "geniuses" in France.


> The "panda" was actually a martial arts master named Genma Saotome, and
> the "girl" was Genma's son Ranma.  And, as show of good faith, Usagi
> revealed her own identity.


Tom: But before she could, she fumbled around for cards down
the front of her dress...

Crow: <Usagi> I AM THE TERROR THAT FLAPS... no, not that
one... HI-YOOO, SILVER... dammit...


>    "Wait a minute," Soun began.  "You're Ken's daughter, right?"
>
>    "Yes.  How did you know?"


Joel: <Soun> You have a distinctly "Mattel" vibe about you.

Crow: <Soun> I flew with your father on the Bacchus 3.  Want to see
my shiny pink jumpsuit?


>    "Ken was an old school buddy of Genma and I.  You remember, don't
> you Genma?"
>
>    "Hey, you're right!" Genma replied.  "He was the most studious out of
> all of us, including Nobuyaki and that Morubishi kid."


Tom: <Genma> Until Lily intervened.  Darn that Ken Snape!


>    "Wait a minute!" Akane exclaimed.  "YOU'RE SAILOR MOON!  I read all
> about your adventures in the papers."


Joel: <Akane> Is it really true that you went around the world in LESS
than eighty days??


>    "Yes, I was."
>
>    "Who is this 'Sailor Moon'?" asked Ranma, who was starting to get bored
> with the whole conversation.


Tom: <Usagi> Didn't I just tell you?  Huh, guess the author forgot.

Crow: Look, bub, DON'T make her go through the opening theme again!


>    "Usagi is a superhero who fight youma, along with her friends, the
> Sailor Scouts.  The Sailor Scouts are almost as famous as those American
> superheroes, like the Justice League and the Avengers!"


Joel: Or Best Buy's Geek Squad!

Tom: <Ranma> Well, if you're not a Rescue Ranger, then I couldn't
care less.


>         "Feh, like a girl can fight at all," Ranma snorted.
>
>            BLAM!
>
>    "Humph!" said Akane, as she dusted her hands.


Tom: She used the Acme Disintegrator!  Quick, go order an Acme
Reintegrator!


>            "Now THAT he had coming," Genma commented, as he stared at the
> table that was on top of his son.
>
>            "Was that necessary?" asked Usagi.


Joel: <Akane> Nope, it's a cliché.  Expect more shortly.


>She was still reeling from the announcement that Genma and Soun wanted
>Ranma and Akane was to be fiancées, for she hated the idea of predestined
>outcomes involving love.


Crow: You could barely tell that this decision was made with her
hormones.

Tom: <Soun> She's on the ropes, Saotome!  Go with the reception plans
for the knockout!


>            "See, my friend, they make a good couple!" beamed Soun.

 
Tom: What?  The table and Ranma's face?

Crow: <Genma> Usagi and Akane?  Are you off your rocker?


>            Over the next few days and weeks, Usagi visited the Tendo
> dojo.  She used the pretext of receiving martial arts lessons as a way
> of avoiding her friends.  


Joel: This was far more believable than when she said she had to
learn radiology to skip breakfast.

Crow: <Usagi> Just a few more lessons, Rei, and I'm gonna
kick your ass all over school!


> And after Soun was able to talk to Usagi's father, Usagi was able to
> transfer to Furinken High School.  Usagi was even able to come to live
> with the Tendo as Akane's roommate.  


Crow: <Usagi as Niles Crane> If anyone needs me, I can be reached
at... The Tendo.


>            "Usagi, don't go," Luna said tearfully.  "We need you.  I
> need you."
>
>            "I can't stay here right now.  Besides, there's no need for a
> 'Sailor Moon' anymore."
>
>            "But-"
>
>            "Look, just keep an eye on things for me, okay?"


Tom: <Luna> I'm a frickin' cat, Usagi.  If the Negaverse comes with
Tender Vittles, the world may as well be destroyed to me.


>            "Very well.  Just...please, don't be a stranger."
>
>            "Hey, I'm already a bit strange, so it's too late for that.
 
              
Crow: <Usagi> Wait... I am a stranger.  McGruff the Crime Dog says
don't talk to me!

Tom: <Luna> Suddenly, I'm feeling much better about our separation.


>            As Usagi got into the cab in front of her home, she could see
> Momaru standing on the corner looking at her with shades on.  Usagi
> looked at her one-time fiancée before getting into her ride, and left.

 
Joel: <Mamoru> So much for the Corey Hart approach...


> Since then, Usagi became very much involved in the affairs of the Nerima
> district, whether she wanted to or not.  Living with the Tendo household

Tom: Usagi counted at least 79 different types of "oh my", and
categorized them by inflection.

Crow: Next time on 'Oniisama'....

Tom: <Usagi> Look, it's the Black Lotus and TWO Mox Sapphires for you
to go back to China.


> At least, she was able to get Ryouga and Ukyo interested in each other.
> Still, it wasn't easy dealing with the other usual suspects.


Joel: <Usagi> I'll give you fifty dollars if you have a ham sandwich in
your pocket!


>            "Golden-hair girl!  I will date thee!"

>            "Get real."

>            SPLAT!


Crow: Foley art by Warner Brothers Studio.

Joel: Wow, her tired cliché actually killed him.

>            "Biiiiiii!" Usagi said, as she stuck out her tongue at the

Tom: <Usagi> Meep meep!

>            "It's my problem, Ranma!" Usagi yelled back, as she ran in

Joel: Crowd?  Scene?  Fanfic?

Crow: <Ranma> Boy, getting a stunt double was a great idea!


>            "But-"

>            "Ranma," Akane said, as she pulled Ranma's pigtail.  "She can

Crow: <Ranma> She's my fiancee AND she can take care of herself!  Smell
ya later, Akane.

Tom: He's going to trade one of them in the off-season to Tenchi Masaki
for a princess to be named later.


>            "N-no.  Of course I'm not!  You think I'm some sort of

>            Akane simply rolled her eyes.

 
All: <Ranma, singing> Come on-a my house, my house... I'm gonna
give you cannnndy...

Tom: So Shampoo just perches on her doghouse, staring holes through
Usagi.

Joel: Cologne didn't mind the "Dip" though, and when Shampoo scored
a source in California...


>            "I got to hide.  Disguise pen, change me into...a BAG LADY!"
>
>            WHISH!
>
>            "Where Usagi go?" Shampoo said, as she ran past a bag lady.
>
>            "Whew!"


Crow: That was almost "Bewitched" in its stupidity.

Tom: Try the blonde-haired hobo, I hear she goes good with beans.


>            "You know, you really ought do something about that girl,"
> said Ukyo, as she closed the door of her shop.  As always, the okynomiyaki

Crow: Fortunately she had dozens of rats to handle the morning prep.

Joel: Ukyou was voted "Most Likely to Leave in the Afternoon".


>            "Yeah, well, as long as Shampoo isn't trying to kill me, I

>
>            "Still, don't you find it strange that Cologne has forbidden

Crow: So, Usagi finally found a use for that "Playing Canasta" superpower.


>            "Yeah, it's strange.  I asked her why, but she keeps saying
> that I was a child of destiny or something."
>
>            "And that's it?"
>
>            "That's it."


Tom: I think the word she used was "density".

Joel: It would've been the title of the fanfic too... but the author's
coin came up tails.


>            "Weird.  We better hurry up, or Miss Hinako will get upset

>
>            "Kami, don't I wish that I had normal teachers..."

 
Joel: <Usagi> Like Mr. Hinkley!  He really was the greatest American hero!


>            In the distance, there were two people looking at the throng

Crow: Michael Moore and Arianna Huffington, shooting competing
documentaries.

Joel: The part of Ranma Saotome will now be played by John F. Kennedy.


> On one end, there was a black suited gentleman standing next to a black

Tom: Agent Smith and Trinity had the bad luck of answering each
other's personal ads.


> The man in black picked up a cell phone and spoke.


Crow: <man in black> Can you hear me now?  Good!


>            "This is Agent Kuroi.  The target have been spotted."
>
>            Meanwhile, the girl on the bike picked up her own cell

Joel: They take their bird watching very seriously.


>            "Target has been spotted.  Waiting for orders."


Tom: <staticy voice> Three large, one with pepperoni and two with
mushrooms.


>            Sigh, the woman thought.  Why couldn't the locals take care

Crow: <girl> Oh, that's right, we killed them.  Silly!

Tom: The people of Furinkan High don't strike me as nearly as aware
of the Matrix as they could be.


>            "Well, that's rich," said Usagi with a perturbed look, as

>
> "Hey, it's not my fault the Old Man wanted to fight me."
>
> "But did you and Happosai have to take the battle into the girls' locker

Joel: I'm beginning to think that Furinkan High School consists of 87.8%
girls' locker room.

Crow: <Ranma> Well maybe if you showed your "fiancé" some BOOB now
and then I wouldn't have to!


> "Jerk!"
>
> BOP!
>
> "Hey!"
>
> "Excuse me, but may I have a moment of your time?"
>
>            Ranma, Akane and Usagi turned to see two dark-suited men

Crow: Until Matthew Lesko came forward!

Tom: <Lesko> Let me tell YOU how to get government grants!!


>            "Yes?" Usagi began.
>
>            "I am Agent Kuroi of the Bureau of Internal Security," said
> one of the men.  
>
>     "We believe that you are a target of a criminal mastermind."
>
>            "For what?" Ranma asked.


Crow: <Kuroi> We're here to warn you.  A scene change is imminent.


>            "For possible recruitment.  If you don't mind, we would like

>
>            "Sorry, but we can take care of ourselves," Ranma said.
>
>            "Then, we have no choice but to arrest you.  For your own

Tom: <Kuroi> The boy's going to be cast down with the Sodomites.  We'll
put the blonde in with Adebici, and the other girl can go with Eddie Murphy
and Martin Lawrence for the next seventy years.


>            Then, two more similarly dressed men popped out of the sedan.


Joel: Nobody escapes the clown Mafia.


>            "Please, do not resist."


Tom: <Ranma> Why, no one's ever asked me nicely before!  Fighting
sucks, let's just go peacefully.


>            Ranma, Akane and Usagi immediately got into a fighting stance.
>
>            "Feh.  Only human."


Crow: Perhaps if they tried individual stances instead of merging into
Devastator?


>            Agent Kuroi threw a small grenade into the throng of students.
> It was designed to freeze everyone into place.


Tom: They then turned Furinkan into a charming English sculpture garden.


>            ZAP!


Crow: <Kuroi> Dammit!  I used the incendiary grenade again!  Why
can't they LABEL these damn things!?


>            Unknown to the Agents, the trio's battle aura shielded them
> from the affects of the freeze.
>
>            "NO!" yelled Usagi.


Crow: <Usagi> I was ready to die!  Curse my survival instincts!

Joel: <Usagi> If I share a battle aura with you, then I share it with
everyone you've fought against!  Ewww yucky!!


>            "Usagi, stay focused!" yelled Ranma.  If only Ryouga was

>
>            "Interesting," Kuroi smirked.  I guess we'll have to do this

Tom: As opposed to tossing grenades for moral support?


> And thus the battle is on.
>
>            "Damn," the woman said, as she revved up her engines.
> "Atarashii, why couldn't we have gotten an easier target for me to find?"
>
>            And off she goes to join the battle.

            
Crow:  Please tell me this isn't going to lead to a dance competition.

Joel: [singing] M.A.S.K.!  Is the mighty power that can save the day!


>            Surprisingly, the battle between the agents and the trio of
> friends was not an easy one.  Somehow, the agents were keeping up with
> the speed and strength levels of the Nerimians.

            
Tom: Nerimians?  Is that anything like Nimnuls?

Joel: Until the C.H.U.D.s joined the battle.

Crow: They trained against trios extensively at Stooge University.


>           "KACHU TENSHIN AMAGURIKEN!"
>
>            Ranma was doing better than the others, applying whatever
> "Ki" that was at his disposal.


Joel: <Ranma> Waitasecond, it's time to "wax on" again.

Tom: But scratching the agents paintjob only seemed to anger them more.


>            "You're not agents of the government!" yelled Akane, as she
> ducked a blow.  She then charged her fists.  She then leaped over

Crow: <agent> We're FDIC.  Deposit *this*!


> "HAMMER OF THUNDER!" Akane yelled, as she performed a double-handle
> axe punch on the agent's head.
>
>            BOOM!


Tom: <Akane> Out of my way!  I'm late to a boss fight with Kratos!


>    Somehow, a lightning bolt from the sky came down as soon as Akane made
> contact.  The agent was flattened in spectacular fashion.


Crow:  Less Zeus, more Thor.

Tom: She's the Blue Thunder of Furinkan High now?  Did she just rent
out the power, or take it by killing Kuno?

Joel: Nah, she just told a nasty fib and refused to take the punishment.


>            "This is ridiculous," said Kuroi, as he pulled out a handgun.
>
>            BLAM!  BLAM!
>
>            Not prepared, Akane went down in a hail of bullets.


Crow: Damn this goofy weather.

Joel: Thank goodness she didn't get buried by a blizzard of bullfrogs
next.

Tom: Sure, she seems dead now but one minute before this fic ends,
Kuroi better PRAY Reginald Veljohnson is nearby...


>            "NOOOOOOOO!" yelled Ranma.  Distracted, Ranma was then
> grabbed and thrown against the wall.


Crow: But before Ranma could hit the wall, he was distracted again,
thankfully saving himself.


>            "Ranma!  Akane!" Usagi said, as she ran towards her fallen
> friends.
>
>            BLAM!  BLAM!


Joel: Sadly her Nike Pump sneakers had an untimely blowout.

Tom: <Usagi, singing> Blam blam he shot me down... Blam blam I
kissed the ground... Blam blam that goofy sound... Blam blam... my
author... shot me... downnn...


>            "This wasn't how it was suppose to be..." Usagi said, as
> she slumped.
>
>            "And now, you all will cooperate-"
>
>            BLAM!  BLAM!


Crow: Another 2,491 rounds and it will start to actually resemble "The
Matrix".

Tom: And Brandon Lee always reminds you to clean your guns out
before your pointless stunts too!


>            Distracted, two of the agents fell in a hail of bullets.  Agent
> Kuroi and the other agent turned to see a woman pointing a

>
>            "The rounds in this gun is made especially for your kind.
> Back off.  Now."


Joel: Hey cool!  First wiffle bats, now riffle guns!  What'll they think
of next?

Tom: I think Elrond should attempt to call the bluff, just to see
what happens.


>            "Well, well.  If it isn't the reality deviant named Mittsu.
> Come to recruit another ally?"
>
>            "Feh.  You got three seconds to back off-"
>
>            "Or what?  You know how dangerous this potential one is."
>
>            Silence.


Joel: <Ranma> S-Should we say something?

Tom: <Usagi> N-Nah, let's keep bleeding out and see what happens.

Crow: Don't feel bad, the readers are desperately trying to catch up too.


>            "I don't know what you are talking about."
>
>            "Please.  I tell you what.  You choose which one lives, and

Joel: "This is ridiculous," said Kasumi, as she armed a nuclear bomb.


>            Knowing that she had yet to get her back up, Mittsu lowered
> her weapon."
>
>            "Good girl," the agent smirked, as his remaining partner
> picked up their unconscious target: Usagi Tsukino.


Crow: They're going to distill her into essences of sugar, spice, and
everything nice.

Tom: <Mittsu> Letsee what else is on the list... dozen eggs, gallon
of milk...


>            "Sorry for not staying, but our business is concluded."
>
>            And, in a flash of light, the agents, Usagi and the sedan

Crow: A couple of shield packs and a chaingun and Usagi's ready for
the next respawn.


>            She then rushed over to Akane to check on her vital signs.
>
>            "Uhhh..."
>
>            "Hang on, kid.  I'm just stabilizing your wounds."


Joel: Three botched tracheotomies later...

Crow <Mittsu> She's at 85% coverage!  Quick, tear her shirt open!


>            "Ugh...AKANE!  USAGI!" Ranma yelled, as he picked himself up.
> He quickly looked around and saw that a woman was hovering over his
> fiancée.  He immediately rushed over to them, and pushed Mittsu aside.


Joel: Then he pushed Akane aside.  Ranma was feeling rather belligerent
at the time...

Tom: <Ranma> I've seen every episode of Dr. House!  Now stand off
to the side and question everything I do while I smugly berate you!


>            "HEY!"
>
>            "Akane?  AKANE!"
>
>            "I'm trying to help her!"
>
>            "Who are you?" Ranma demanded.
>
>            "A friend who can help.  Her wounds needs to be dealt with

Crow: Take her to Darth Sidious!

Joel: <Mittsu> We can rewrite her.  We have the technology.


>            Ranma looked at the woman for a moment.
>
>            "Okay, but if anything happens to her-"
>
>            "Yeah, yeah.  Now, if you can excuse..."
>
>            Mittsu took out a strange looking device, and waved it over
> Akane's wounds.


Tom: <Mittsu> According to this... she's definitely not a stud...

Crow: One .44 bullet later, Akane was off to the glue factory!


> Being a stomach wound, one could watch blood pour out perfusely.


Crow: As a matter of fact, Ranma could watch it all day.  It was way
cooler than his lava lamp at home.

Joel: <Ranma> Wow, this is truly captivating... Akane, can you see
this?  Akane?


>    Slowly, though, the wounds began to close up."
>
>            "Wow..."
>
>            "There, that ought to do it.  Take her to a place where your

Joel: The Betty Ford Clinic.


>            With that, Mittsu turned to leave.
>
>            "Hey, what about Usagi?"
>
>            "What about her?" Mittsu replied, as she put on her

Tom: <motorcycle> TOUGH!  TOUGH!

Crow: <Ranma> Is she done yet?  I'm hungry.

Crow: <Ranma> This may be my easiest role to date... ZZZZzzzzzz...


>            "Uhhhh..."
>
>            "Took you long enough, Master Saotome," Mittsu replied.  "You

Joel: CGI Shao Khan will soon be threatening us with Dr. Claw's voice?

Tom: <Happosai> Tomorrow... he learns how to surf!

Crow: Boy, you know, NOTHING adds excitement to a story like
BUREAUCRACY!  Just ask George Lucas!


>            "That may be, but because the Mirror-shades took the 'Child of

>
>            With that, Mittsu drove off.


Joel: And becomes Ghost Rider?

Tom: It'd be the most plausible thing to happen in this fic so far.


>            Happosai looked down at Ranma and Akane, and shook his head.
>
>            "I guess I have to get serious about your training, boy."
>
>            And with that, Happosai scooped up Akane and Ranma and left

Crow: <Agent> This land is NOT zoned for fights!  It's 1c-residential!

Tom: A Golden Ticket?


>            With that, Nabiki hung up.

Joel: After all, how would they get such full photo albums?

Tom: So Happosai and his allies participated in what they did
best... selling yesterday's paper as today's and playing the lottery
numbers.

Crow: <Happosai> It took a year of intensive therapy... but I was
able to put 'Everybody Loves Raymond' behind me.

Joel: So that's when the legend of Babe the Blue Ox versus Ryu Hoshi
started!

Crow: You know, I barely remember this fanfic being about Usagi,
and... that sailor chick...

Tom: Yeah, Olive something, wasn't it?

>
>            "What are you doing here, Old Ghoul?"

Tom: Be it hairy thunderer, or cosmic muffin...

Joel: Ben Stiller watches over us all.  It really bites.


>             Ranma, not really understanding, sat down.
>
>            "Well?"
>
>            "Ranma, did you know that Reality is lie?"

 
All: <singing> Life... is... LIE!  (Na na... na na na...!)

Joel: <Ranma> Thank heaven, "South Park" has really shaken my faith
lately.


> Year 10.

 
Crow: This 'fic is definitely headed for the Scooby-Doo ending, isn't it?


>            "Ah, Miss Ohara.  I see that you have come.  Welcome to my

Joel: Suddenly we're watching a Whose Line sketch.

Tom: <Drew Carey> Now, in the form of a Swedish porno.

Crow: Ah, Miss Ohara.  I see that you have come.


>           Serena O'Hare, the Woman in White, strolled into Merovingian's

Joel: You just knew when they made a live action movie of
'Spy Vs. Spy', they'd screw it up.

Tom: Oh, it's "Spy vs. Spy"?  Thank heaven, I thought they were
stupid enough to bankroll "Elektra II".


> Officially, Serena was in Paris, France, to check on local Technocratic
> activities in Europe as an independent observer.  


Tom: Off the record, she and Nabiki just wanted an excuse to party
and fool around with male prostitutes.

Joel & Crow: <Serena & Nabiki, singing> WE GOT A LOT OF LIVIN'
TO DOOOO...!!!


> It was the only way to make sure that corruption did not spread throughout

Joel: Little late for that, sweetheart.

Crow: Is this where she flashes the goofy light on the Mona Lisa?


>            "And Miss Tendo, it's good to see you again.  I am glad to

>
>     "Thank you, Monsieur Merovingian," Nabiki replied.


Tom: <Nabiki> For Bob Evans, I'll do almost anything.


> For the past ten years, Nabiki Tendo has enjoyed herself as a member of

Crow: She's spinning it off into a shell company known as "Syndicated
Incorporated".


> Still, being assigned to accompany the one she once knew as "Usagi Tsukino"

Joel: As the new Queen of Blades, Usagi carried out the will of the Swarm.


>            "So, Miss Ohara, to what pleasure do I owe this visit?"
>
>            "I'm going to get straight to the point," Serena said, electing

Tom: <Serena> I have a contact in Africa who is the Vice Chancellor,
and he needs your account to transfer money to.


> She looked at the various minions that this Syndicate operative had around

Joel: <Serena> Isn't it true that you have, perhaps unwillingly,
acquired a certain habit through association with certain undesirable
people?


> "Rumor has it that the Reality Deviants will be making a play on

Crow: <Serena> Yes, along with Matt Damon and Pink.  Also Stupid
Pet Tricks!


>          "I see.  Ah, care for a little snack, Miss Ohara?  I know that

>
>            Serena paused.
>
>            "Sure."

 
Tom: <Nabiki> Hey Pedro!  Bleach this chocolate ice cream for
me, willya?  

Crow: In a Parisian restaurant, she goes for vanilla ice cream.


>           "You must be very accomplished to risen the ranks of the

Crow: <Serena> And you are...?

Joel: <Persephone> Candy.  Eye Candy.  Pleased to meet you.


>           "It wasn't easy.  I thank my mentors for grooming me for my

Tom: Lieutenant General, First Mounted Calvary.

Crow: <Serena> See this awesome goatee?  Don't I look totally threatening?


>            "Yes.  Ah!  Here we go," the Frenchman said, as a waiter
> handed Serena a glass of ice cream.
>
>            "French vanilla?"
>
>            "But of course."
>
>            Serena began taking a spoonful of ice cream into her mouth.


Joel: Soon she graduated to a spatula, then a shovel.

Tom: If the story has to grind to a halt, at least it is over the
divine pleasure of French vanilla ice cream.


>            "You know, Miss Ohara.  There is much to be said about

Crow: These people usually end up on Battlebots.

Tom: <Nabiki> And now for the hard sell!


> Take that ice cream that you are partaking."
>
>            "Oh?" Serena said, as she polished her dessert.
>
>            "By now, the effects of the dessert should have very interesting results."
>
>            "I see."


Crow: <Serena> You're right!   My stomach now cries out for its sisters,
Strawberry and Chocolate!


>            With that sat down her spoon.


Joel: But there is no spoon.  Oh geez, this is going to take up another
five pages isn't it?


>            "Only I can satisfy your 'hunger' now.  And with that, I am in

>
>            Serena smirked.  Nabiki looked nervous.
>
>            "Let me demonstrate the true meaning of control."


Tom: With that, Nabiki lowers her skirt to reveal Control Tops.

>
>            Serena, using the breaking point, shatters the table."

Crow: <Nabiki> I expected chop-socky, but this is ridiculous!

Tom: <Merovingian> Try reading an Ian Flemming novel sometime, Cherie.

Joel: <Nabiki> Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.


>            Then, Serena walks up to the Frenchman.

Crow: The bit in his mouth was beginning to chafe, but he knew that the
saddle on his back would soon be filled.


>    "Good.  Have a nice day, Monsieur."
>
>            And with that, Serena's entourage left the restaurant.


Tom: I hope they remembered to tip the waiter... into the foie gras,
the ungrateful bastard.

Crow: Undaunted, Merovingian immediately hired the A-Team for

Crow: <Merovingian> Hey, I only pissed into it!  I'm French, it's
what we do.

Tom: What, was Doctor Bombay on a house call at the moment?


>            Just as Serena, Nabiki and the others left, a group of "Reality

Joel: <first person> Madonna!

Crow: <second person> No it isn't, it's clearly Angelina Jolie!

Tom: <third person> Mother Teresa?

Joel: <Ranma> Hey, I'm not the one that gained fifty pounds between
movies, Morpheus!

Tom: <Trinity> I lost weight!  In fact, I'm not even sure I'm a woman
anymore!

Crow: <Morpheus> Don't worry, I've got more than enough boobs for
both of us.

Crow: Blues Brothers Reloaded.

Tom: Obviously Ranma is preoccupied with saving his own ass.

Joel: All they have to find is the Gatecrasher, then they can summon
the Stay-Puft Cotton Swab Man.


>            "Trust us, okay?" said Trinity.
>
>            "Alright."

>            And with that, the four disappear into the elevator.

 
Crow: And for the remaining five seconds of his life, Ranma never
trusted again.

Joel: Oh no, they've been written out of the soap opera!

to use it!

> "Yes, ma'am," said an aide, as she left Usagi's office.


Tom: <Aide> Umm, they're going well.

Crow: <Usagi> What the hell?  How about a level four?

Tom: <Aide> Insert three more quarters, please.

Joel: He had to wipe the pizza grease off his fingers and finish that
final autopsy first, though.

Tom: <Serena> Once the Kay-Bee Conglomerate is toppled, our Toys-Be-We
empire will be the Master of the Universe!


> "Good," Usagi said, as she lit up a thin cigar.  "That would-be

Crow: <Usagi> It's too bad that we had it offscreen, but you can still
titter guiltily about the phallic symbolism.

Joel: Usagi would have won easily but Andy Ritcher kept distracting

Tom: Let's grind our fanfic to a halt so that the characters can reveal

Tom: Usagi takes her 'Caesar' game a little too seriously.

Joel: So is she Lex Luthor now?  Gendo?  President Shinra?  Emperor
Palpatine?

Crow: Try all four, with a bit of Bill Clinton thrown in.


> "Barring that insult of yours, life is seldom simple."

Crow: By the end of the day, that's not all she touched.

Tom: Then there was a picture of a banana split... and then a picture

three whole days.

Tom: <Usagi> Would you just replace my printer ink already!?

Crow: <Usagi> Lecturing me is a BAD way to start an interview

Joel: <Usagi> Just wait, my meth labs are still building up business.

Tom: Pure semantics.  She can make it Asbestos Tokyo if she wants...

Joel: <Setsuna> Won't you please think of the Smurfs?

Tom: The Usagi Ultimatum.

Joel: Back in Training.

Crow: Oh, this is where she finally becomes a Sith lord, right?

Joel: Either that or Richard Pryor shows up.


> Year 19-29 (1999-2009).


Joel: I think Dr. Forrester accidentally sent us a Wikipedia article.

Crow: Welcome to the "Ethnic Cleansing" part of our fanfic!  Hope you
brought your Comet!


> Thanks to the introduction of "Robotechnology", which was introduced
> to the world after World War III, "hyper-science" was revolutionized.  


Tom: It was a new era of power-dolls, each more buxom than the last.

Crow: Finally!  Power to the proletari-bot!


> World War III had been started after several terrorists attacks involving
> nuclear weapons were planted in several cities, especially in the West.


Joel: Weren't those terrorists surprised to get uranium shrubs.


> In response, the Western responded by sending it's military machine
> into the Middle East and elsewhere to fight against the Islamic fascists.


Crow: You know... Amsterdam, Vienna, Houston...


> This conflict ended when an alien fortress crashed near the Philippine
> Island, where, at the time, the Americans were conducting military
> operations against the Jiyadist in the region.  


Tom: Canada finally decides to make a splash on the international
power scene.

Joel: Shevat's maiden flight didn't go so well.


> The Technocratic Union sent Magistrate Tsukino, who had oversight
> in Asia to supervise the information extraction from the alien logs...


Crow: The last word was an understated "Whoops".

Joel: The prior half-hour to landing, the aliens were watching "The
Red Green Show", which explained all the duct tape on the warp core.


> "Hey, Doc, take it easy," Roy Folker said, as he and Dr. Emil Lang
> waited for the VIP.  "I'm sure that the United Nations wouldn't send

>
> "I know, I know," Lang responded.  "I just don't want anything to

Tom: Unfortunately for Lang, the VIP was Will Smith.

Crow: <Will Smith> YAAAAAAGGGGHHHH!!  That's right!  That's right!
Ha Ha!  Look at you! Ya ship's all banged up!


> Soon, a black helicopter comes into view.  It signals the ground crew that

Tom: Morgan Freeman?


> "Dr. Lang?  Lt. Folker, I presume?" asked the woman in white.


Crow: Yes, you too can get your own mail-order bride with enough
box-tops of General Mills cereal!

Joel: <Folker> Wow, that sex change really did wonders for you, Mr...
I mean Ms. Clean!


> "U.S. Navy, all the way," Folker replied smugly.
>
> "Right.  I'm Dr. Usagi Tsukino, the UN's Public Affairs officer.  This

Joel: Preferably colored green with pictures of US presidents on them.

Crow: Oh, I get it!  They're paper DOLLS.

> "How so?" Roy replies.


Tom: <Usagi> You see, the caveman throws the bone in the sky...


> Usagi tells the two that now that extra-terrestrial life-forms truly
> exist, then the people of the world can finally put aside their

Crow: At least until we play Roy Orbison for the Vulcans and they
decide to sterilize our illogical asses...

Joel: Is this before or after Bruce Willis as the completely unbelievable
taxi driver?

Tom: Only to get into a bitter civil war over the better candy, Mars
or Reeses Pieces?


> Of course, the Technocracy knew that aliens were real, but has used the
> pretext of the crashed alien fortress to advance the time-table for
> global domination.


Crow: Surely the collapse of their alien fortress PROVES their mettle
in battle!

Joel: Now what's going to happen when the big bad fortress turns into
a cute little cabbit?


> Besides, if the intelligence gathered by the Void Engineers, the
> Technocracy's advance space and terrestrial exploration "convention", is
> accurate, then the Earth needs to prepare itself for "visitors".


Joel: Or at least provide the Energizer Bunny to give them a jump.

Crow: Are these "conjugal" visitors?

Tom: I for one am not ready to welcome pointy-eared singers of "Bilbo,
Bilbo, the greatest little hobbit of them all..."


> In the meantime, Usagi and her entourage will have to assess the alien
> fortress' feasibility in the mainstream.


Joel: <Usagi> With a little hard work, we can get this thing airborne
in time for the next Superbowl!

Tom: Boy, imagine the headlines if they keep it a secret... SWAMP
GAS CREATES MILE-LONG CRATER!  ABNORMALLY GASSY
WEATHER BALLOON VAPORIZES ENTIRE COUNTY!

Crow: <Lang> Puppy, boat, clouds, big beautiful bosoms, string.  Did I
pass the ink blots?

Tom: Until of course it was released as freeware on BitTorrent.


> At the same time, the Technocracy has increased its own level of

Joel: From Commodore 64 to Commodore 128!

Tom: They were able to cut incoming spam by about 12%.


> The New World Order (Usagi's principal home), which administers the
> Union's affairs, have increased its propaganda and levels of control
> over the masses;


All: <singing> Propaganda, Tres Stupide!

Tom: Endless looping of Hollywood Hogan promos with 'Voodoo Child'
blaring in the background.


> the Syndicate (Nabiki's turf) has cornered the market with its products,
> and controls 90 percent of the top trans-national corporations...and
> many illegal operations as well;


Joel: Sure, the legit corporations earn her billions but there's
just something thrilling about owning a piece of an underground
cock-fighting ring...

Crow: So... who will win between the Unions and the corporations?  
Stay tuned for hot labor action, next week on "Collective Bargaining"!

Tom: The Cabal, headed by Nuku Nuku, has cornered 99% of the illegal
drugs, and strangely enough 100% of the world's supply of catnip.


> Iteration X (Dr. Stingray's organization), with the help of the
> Syndicate, is mass-marketing advance cybernetic research, combat armor
> and computer system to the public,


Crow: All of which will be immediately tied up for the next Halo sequel.
Sad, really...


> and has introduced advanced androids (such as Genom's "Boomers") into
> the public discourse;


Tom: You can be sure that these androids won't follow any of Asimov's
laws anytime soon.

Crow: Think I'll go out for some air, this crossover's getting crowded.


> the Progenitors have introduced new lifeforms, drugs and medical
> techniques to the public;


Joel: Thereby ushering in a new era of racism, stoners and hair
transplants.


> finally, the Void Engineers have secretly explored and mapped the
> so-called "final frontier", from the deepest seas to the farthest reaches

Joel: But what does Usagi need with a spaceship?


> After all, what you can control can't hurt you.


Tom: I dunno, you COULD accidentally tune in Rachael Ray on your TV.

Joel: <Usagi> Gimmie an E!  Gimmie a T!

Crow: Lord help us if they're big, fat and Greek.


> Year 41.


Tom: <Raoul Lipschitz> Ladies and gentlemen, every where I
look... soldiers are fighting sailors, sailors are fighting marines.
Directly in front of me, I see a flying blond floozy. Everywhere I look,
everywhere, pure pandemonium - pandemonium.

Tom: And everyone listens to the people who claim to be alien

Joel: Looks like Ben Jordan has his work cut out for him.

Tom: A car that transforms into a submarine and a plane.  Always a
realistic and diabolical approach.

Crow: <Usagi> Time to firebomb the entire World of Warcraft network.


> And now, she has to personally lead a pogrom against these people, some
> of them were once her friends and love ones.


Joel: John Lennon's been dead for too many years, huh?

Tom: Heh, cause nothing says "damage control" like inciting a
murderous riot!


> "I shouldn't have to clean up your messes," Usagi muttered to herself.
>
> "Ma'am?" said Usagi's aide.
>
> "Yes, Agent A?" Usagi asked.


Joel: <Agent A> We've got some hosers at the front gate!  We tried
throwing our empties at 'em but they won't take off!  Oh wait... Doug
just brained 'em with a puck.  Beauty.


> "I have Gendo on the line."

Tom: This is the unified field theory of anime fanfics.

Crow: <Gendo> Have you heard the good word about Jes... oops, hold
please.  Yeah?  That's right!  Kill them all!  No survivors!  Yeah, bye!
Ahem.  Sorry about that.  Where were we?


> There were those in SEELIE who would openly oppose Gendo's efforts, if

Joel: Those in NERF, however, were surprisingly okay with it.


> Soon, however, it won't matter who knows what when Usagi gives Gendo the

Tom: No one will be spared when operation "Christmas Fruitcake" commences.


> "Gendo, how are things?"
>
> "Things are going to plan," Gendo replies.  "You still remember the

Joel: Is this now a bad episode of "The Love Connection"?

Crow: <Usagi> I've upped your bet on the angels to ten grand.  It's
a lock.


> "Of course.  You will be awarded handsomely.  Just be sure to initiate

Tom: <Gendo> What the hell?  I thought you just wanted a quick simple
execution.

Crow: <Nabiki> Right, he was cleaning his gun and it accidentally
discharged popping a zit on his forehead.


> "Right.  And Magistrate Tsukino?"
>
> "Yes, Gendo?"
>
> "It has been a pleasure working for you."
>
> "You're quite welcome.  Tell your son I said 'Hello'."
>
> "I will do that."


Joel: Phew, good.  Neil Diamond can finally rip off his "Hello, My
Name Is GENDO" tag.


> And with that, the conversation ended, Usagi thought about why she has
> decided to destroy the world as she knew it.


Tom: <Usagi> Because the script says so... well okay then!

Crow: The power of R.E.M compels her.


> Her decision came after she was invited to join the ranks of CONTROL, who
> over-saw the affairs of the Technocracy.  Instead, thanks to her Lunarian
> heritage, she perceived the truth:


Crow: The moon landing was real, Buzz Aldrin was the fake all along!

Tom: <Usagi> You SUCK, Chris Carter.


> CONTROL did not exist.


Joel: There is no reboot.

Crow: The world finally turned to its last superhero... David Blaine.
Unfortunately, the next day, we found CONTROL under the stage.


> CONTROL was made from the collective consciousness of the members of
> the Technocratic Union.  The original members of CONTROL, in an effort
> to gain "enlightenment", divested themselves of their humanity.  The end
> result was disembodiment.  


Tom: Fortunately, CONTROL was content to merely utter a line of
dialogue every so often from a film to keep your Rifftrax synched up to
the DVD.


> However, CONTROL's reputation allowed it to stay in control over the
> body.  It wasn't until Usagi sought membership that she realized the
> truth.


Crow: That no one mentions fight club?

Joel: First she perceived... then she realized... now in 2007, Usagi
will... GRASP the truth!


> And now, with this fact in hand, it was time to supplant CONTROL's
> influence, and thus take over the planet.  For its own good, of course.


Tom: But by all means, do it offscreen.  Our hearts and brains can't
take this level of suspense.

Joel: About four Verne Troyers armed with cream pies should do the trick.


> Thus, for some time now, Usagi has quietly supplanted her rivals and
> any other potential threat.  Gendo, who's also a member of the Union,
> was a major backer of hers.  


Crow: <Usagi> Stupid pyramid scams...


> She had met him and his family at a symposium years ago.


Joel: <Usagi> Kegger at Old Man Gendo's tonight!  WOO!!!


> And now, it was time to make a move, before CONTROL can regain its hand.
> But first, she has a mess to take care of...


Tom: <loudspeaker> Magistrate Tsukino to Aisle 3... Pickle jar spill in
Aisle 3...

Crow: Oh, crap... she just used the last of the kitty litter in the
sandbox, too.

Joel: <Usagi's Mom> You can rule the world later, now clean up your room!


> Luna D'Cat, who had assumed human form, hid among the boxes within the
> warehouse.  She was a principal member of the Underground, ever since

Tom: And her latest rap album will hit stores this Tuesday.

Crow: The artist formerly known as P. Kitty.

Joel: Don't tell me we're roping Sonic the Hedgehog in this too...


> She had hoped that her Moon Princess would see reason.  However, neither

Crow: Every time they went to "The Max", they could've sworn they saw
blonde hair leaving...


> "Luna?  Luna, are you there?"

 Tom: Nah, that was just the vengeful zombie corpse of Ed Norton.


> Cautiously, Luna peeked...
>
> "Usagi?  USAGI!"

Crow: Poor Luna... you would've had more of a chance with Dr. Phil.
Unless of course he was hungry again...


> "Yes, its me, Luna."

Crow: Paris Hilton?

Tom: Britney Spears?

Joel: Johnny 'Guitar' Watson?


> "I know, I know.  However, there's something that you should know."
>
> "Oh?  And what's that?"


Joel: <Usagi> My darned violin is so out of tune.  Could you help me?


> "I'm that enemy."
>
> "Wha-?"
>
> BLAM!


Crow: <Luna> You're also a lousy shot.

Tom: <Usagi> Shut up!


> As Luna's body dropped to the floor, Usagi handed her gun to her aide.
>
> "See that you put this deviant's body into a proper cryo-stasis tube.
> I'll have use for it later."
>
> "Yes, ma'am."


Joel: This is slowly turning into Battlefield Earth... only more
pessimistic.

Crow: <Usagi> For my next experiment... a cat with four asses.


> For the past 24 hours, Usagi has systematically eliminated those who
> would oppose her, including the Sailor Scouts.


Crow: And the Fearsome Foursome, and the Justice League, and the
Samurai Pizza Cats, and the A-Team, and the Mod Squad...

Tom: Using the exact same method each time.


> "They'll never forgive you," said a voice.
>
> Usagi turned to Setsuna ("Sailor Pluto") Meioh.


Crow: <Pluto> I cannot allow this to continue.  For the sake of
the world and your soul, I challenge you, Usagi... to a game of Red Rover!
My senshi versus your smiths!  You got the guts?

Joel: <Usagi> Actually, I'm more partial to Buck Buck.


> "It doesn't matter, Pluto.  Once I have fashioned clone bodies, I'm in

Tom: Until Zuul shows up.

Crow: <Usagi> The Goodchild... I mean the Serenity Dynasty shall

Joel: I wouldn't want to be Usagi when she finds out that the only
genetic matter they could find was for Abe Vigoda.


> Year 99.


Tom: <Chicago Cubs fan> Just wait'll next year!


> Thanks to the "accident" at the Lunar Space Gate, the Earth was plunged
> into a new Ice Age.  This forced the Earth inhabitants to terraform and
> colonized the rest of the Solar System and beyond.


Crow: <Usagi> Finally!  I'll never have to waste two bucks on a bag of
ice for my rum ever again!


> As for Usagi, now known as "the Neo-Queen Serenity", she had used the
> resources from her old Technocratic Union and the Silver Millennium
> crystal to gain complete supremacy over the Earth, which is now
> a paradise.


Joel: <Usagi> Now every day's a snow day!  Woo hoo!


> After all, with the bulk of humanity off-planet, who could oppose her?


Crow: Rex Dart, Eskimo Spy?

Tom: Tim Allen and his fat suit?

Joel: <Rei> I figure five minutes of Dropo should be enough to force
an unconditional surrender.


> Still, she needed to keep tabs on the rest of the Terran system, and she
> can't do that coop up in Crystal Tokyo.  So, she ventures out whenever
> she can.


Crow: <Usagi, distorted> TAXI!  UP, PLEASE.


> "Husband, I will take a trip to Mars with our daughter," Serenity
> states, as she sits on King Endymion lap in their personal quarters.
> "Besides, I miss Queen Raye."
>
> "Of course, my darling," Endymion replies with affection.  "Just be
> careful.  There are still tension between the Earth and the Black Moon
> Family."
>
> Recently, the members of the Black Moon Family were vanquished by the
> younger versions of the Sailor Scouts.


Joel: The Cosa Nostra in Crystal Tokyo...

Tom: Sailor Moon.  A Spike Lee Joint.


> "I'm glad that your are concerned for my safety, my husband."


Crow: <Endymion> Of course I am, lousy stupid pre-nup...


> It saddened Usagi that Mamoru was nothing more than her personal
> toy, of sorts.  


Joel: She was hoping for a Buzz Lightyear this Christmas.

Tom: <Mamoru> To infinity and... I'm done.

Crow: Isn't a Bratz doll a bit more fitting?


> In fact, the only one who wasn't her puppet was Sailor Pluto, who
> ran Usagi's shadowy affairs.  After all, you can't have the Queen of
> Love and Justice be seen to have a dark side.


Joel: <Sailor Pluto> My Queen must be as one-dimensional as possible!


> Later, on Mars...
>
> Vicious Moonchild looked askance, as a prominent figure disembarked
> from the Terran space plane.  


Tom: Fat Ass looked at the pilot, Goofus von Flysalot, and both
welcomed Vicious Moonchild to Cold Third Ball from Sun.


> The interstellar security forces made it known that airport on this
> particular day were closed to the public. Of course, Vicious, being a
> member of the Red Dragons, had enough resources to protect his-


Crow: ...chicken balls.

Tom: This is the Rob Zombie remake of "In the Line of Fire"?


> "Mother," Vicious said, as he greeted Serenity with open arms.
>
> "My precious Vincent", Usagi said, as she hugged her wayward son.


Joel: <Mother> How goes the drug trafficking, protection rackets
and... is... is that an... EARRING?!?  Young man, you are in a WORLD
of trouble now!


> "Big Brother!" Little Serenity said, as she jumped into Vicious' arms.


Crow: <Little Serenity as Dino> Rar-rar-rar-rar-rar-rar!


> "Hey, snowflake," Vicious said, as picked up her half-sister.  "Did the
> flight attendant treat you right?"
>
> "He sure did, big brother!"
>
> "Good."


Crow: <Serenity> I'm high on Dilly bars!  Wheeee!


> "Vincent, I'm glad that you are here.  Is Spencer...well?"
>
> "Mother, you know that Spike Tendo and I have had a fallen out.  The
> only reason why he's still alive is because of his blasted father's
> training."


Joel: <Vicious> Curse you, Skip Saotome!

Tom: Spike... Tendo.  Are we crossing over with Degrassi Junior High now?


> "I know.  The Saotomes are an expert in their Art.  It's just that he
> is the son of a close friend of mine.  Speaking of which, I will need to
> visit Nabiki during this trip.  After all, she is the head of all Syndicate
> operations here on Mars."


Tom: <Nabiki> Thank god I packed those Slim Whitman CDs.

Crow: Oh, it doesn't matter how!  Just accept it!  Like pretty much
everything else!


> "Mother, I really wish you allow me to take over operations here.  The
> Red Dragons need to expand."


Crow: The dance troupe is a couple of back-row dancers short, and we
need one more wardrobe coordinator!  Do these slacks match this silk shirt
and cravat??


> "And set you up as a target for the ISSA?  You're still my child,
> you know.


Joel: But Mom!  We need to increase our bloody rampages and vilification
of everything you should have stood for!

Tom: Heh, pretty much.


> However, I will ask her if she is interested in becoming the head of ALL
> Syndicate operations, while you take over her planetary duties."


Tom: Weird stultifying promotions for everyone, especially when we
have no idea who's being demoted!  Huzzah!

Crow: <kid> Naah, that's okay, I don't feel like becoming Sailor
Retribution.


> "Thank you, Mother."
>
> "Just promise me that you live long enough to give me grandchildren."


Crow: <Vicious> OK, let me just find my invunerability switch here
and... done!

Tom: <Vicious> Way ahead of you there, Mom.  Good luck tracking them
down though.


> And with that, Usagi and her children depart the airport terminal.


Joel: Thank heaven, staying there would have led to the most inappropriate
crossover ever.


> Usagi knew that she has done many things that were practically
> criminal, to become the ruler of humanity from the seat known as Crystal
> Tokyo.  


Crow: <bursts out laughing> PRACTICALLY???

Joel: When they put Tuxy's ritual emasculation and subsequent "suicide"
before a jury of her peers though, Usagi was exonerated after only two
minutes' hurried deliberation.

Tom: Killing her friends was bad enough but the littering, OH, the
littering!


> Maybe if she didn't feel betrayed that day, 100 years ago, when Mamoru
> and Rei kissed each other behind her back, she wouldn't have done what
> she did.  
>
> And now, what she has done was create a False Eden...a paradise built
> upon quiet tyranny.


Joel: Uh-oh... looks like Usagi's warming up for a Shatner-eque monologue.


> If only she didn't leave the life she left behind: that of a pure soul.


Tom: Not to mention a sound mind.

Crow: If only she owned more than one set of clothing.  Oh, and
did we mention said clothing was WHITE?!?

Joel: I always like my tyranny to be considerate and not rude too.


> Next time: "Epilogue?


Tom: <laughing> Sure, why not?

Joel: Hey now, don't go to any trouble on our account.


> The Life I Left Behind – By DS Wynne
>
> Disclaimer: "Sailor Moon" and other genre belong to their respective
> owners.  Note: This is a continuation/crossover story.
>
> Part 4: Epilogue?


Crow: Yes!  It's a epilogue!  Get on with it already!  Geez!

Joel: Good gosh, I certainly hope it's not a prologue.


> Six months later…
>
> Neo-Queen Serenity should have known that the feud between her son
> Vincent ("Vicious") and her god-son Spencer ("Spike") was going to
> end in tragedy.


Tom: Only one could go for the big money in the bonus round.

Crow: When there's only one "Mountain Dew: Code Red" left, families
are torn asunder.


> In a chapel in on Mars, Vincent Moonchild's body was lying in state.
> After all, he was a prince.


Tom: So?  It's how Serenity's boytoys always finish the night too.


> And since he was the child of the Neo-Queen, Vincent was given the
> proper burial rites.


Crow: <british> Thrown into the river, nibble nibble nibble...


> The only other persons in attendance were Rini Chiba, the Queen's
> daughter, and


Tom: Paid representatives from Mutual of Omaha.


> Nabiki Tendo, her head of all Syndicate operations.  She had buried
> her son Spencer a few days earlier,


Crow: Despite his repeated objections.


> and the Queen was in attendance at that funeral as well.


Joel: <muffled> Lemme out! LET ME OUT!! *thud thud*


> "Is it worth it?" Serenity asked, as tears fell from her eyes.


Tom: <Nabiki> Probably not... the "Matrix" crossover really kind of
fouled everything else up, didn't it?


> "I…don't know, Your Majesty," Nabiki replied.  


Joel: <Nabiki> Having the Prince stuffed WOULD be cheaper but
isn't mounting him above your throne a bit much?


> She wore her "Ice Queen" face in an attempt to hide her stricken emotions.


Crow: Remorse?  Now?  Isn't the epilogue a bit LATE for character
development?


> "That's why it was best not to think of these things."


Tom: And here I thought that Nabiki would be hurriedly calculating
the updated line of succession.


> The irony is that both Vincent and Spencer had the same father,


Joel: Judd Hirsch.


> in the form of one Ranma Saotome.


Joel: No!  We want Judd Hirsch!

Crow: Heh.


> Long ago, it was proven that the legendary martial artist's genetic
> structure contained the element that can be used to produce superior
> offspring.


Tom: Solid Saotome, Liquid Saotome and Solidus Saotome.

Crow: Is that why Ranma got so anal about annexing the Sudetenland?


> It was not until later that this gene strain was based upon the royal
> family from the alien planet Jurai.


Tom: It became copyrightable, and now you too can see it at Ranmassic
Park!


> Unfortunately, Ranma has not been seen since before the Second Ice Age.


Crow: Or the first act for that matter.

Joel: Three eons later, Ranma was defrosted by a stoned Pauly Shore...


> Supposedly, he took off into Deep Space, when the Robotech Expeditionary
> Force (i.e. "the REF")


All: <singing> Whoop-de-do!  It's crossover twenty-two!


> and its flagship, the SDF-3 "Megaroad", went off to deal with a
> potential alien menace.


All: Megaweapon!  Megaweapon!  Megaweapon!


> Ranma was a Military Specialist in charge of all Special Forces
> Operations, with the rank of "General".


Crow: And the surname of "Mayhem".


> Both the REF and General Saotome have not been seen since.


Tom: Rumors of a Ted Dibiase payoff had yet to be proven.


> The irony is that the alien menace that was to be stopped at the source
> invaded Earth anyway,


Joel: Chill out, Coneheads!  We'll never laugh at you again!  Trust us!

Tom: It was barely beaten off by the chance reintroduction of
humpback whales to Usagi's bathtub.


> and that invasion was followed by another alien menace who sought
> revenge on the aliens that have arrived before them.


Crow: And we'll see NONE of it, folks!  Feel gypped yet?

Tom: <Sigourney Weaver> Dammit, I'm too old for this shit!


> It took many lives and power to destroy both of them, but the costs
> has been great.


Joel:  Bodies, Schmodies!  Just look at these BILLS!!


> And the ramification of those invasions resulted in the renegade group
> known as "The Black Moon Family".


Crow: Finally, Earth had found dudes bad enough to rescue the President.

Tom: Huzzah!


> The Black Moon Family were renegades who sought to break the yoke
> of Serenity's rule.


Joel: They had many funny names, like Deja Vu, Chocolate Mousse,
and Latrine.

Bots: <Chanting> SERENITY LATER! SERENITY LATER!


> And, over time, their presence has steadily increased in the form of
> terrorism.


Tom: Their previous plan, opening a big bunch of Starbucks, was roundly
ignored.

Crow: But it was their choreographed axe dance number that REALLY
got them over as a credible threat.


> It's only a matter of time before they launch a strike of epic proportions.


Tom: Well, if they don't get Serenity here at the plate, Rini's going to
come up with two on and two down.

Joel and Crow: Slide, Sailor Moon!  Slide!


> "We can do only what we can, I suppose," Serenity says.
> Nabiki nods.


Joel: So Serenity is going to give them the 'red pill/blue pill'
speech while Nabiki organizes a betting ring?

Crow: <Serenity> Right then, I'll continue my bloody reign of tyranny
while you perfect your David Spade impression.


> Rini was in tears. She knew that her mother was obligated not to bring
> back her older brother,


Tom: No refunds or exchange after 30 days.  No exceptions.


> but she was not under any obligation to save her brother Vincent.


Crow: <Rini> That bastard can rot for all I care.


> As soon as she can, Rini will try to use her mother's "Silver Millennium"
> to save him.


Crow: <Rini> Wait, I do care? What the hell's going on here?

Joel: That's when you press both the triangle and square buttons
while reefing both joysticks hard to the right.


> Standing watch from his post by the entrance of the chapel was the
> legendary Vash the Stampede.


Tom: He was standing next to the legendary Doctor House, who
failed to save Vincent from his scabrous lumbago in time.


> He took up the job of guarding the House of Serenity in exchange
> for the government putting resources in improving his homeworld,
> which was an Earth colony.


Crow: The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss!


> The wars over the years did much to divert Earth's attention away
> from its territories, and so it became necessary revert that attention.
> Still, it was nice to get away from his ex-girlfriend Meryl for a
> change.


Joel: They've got a Jerry/Elaine thing going on, and Vash wanted his
life to have more substance.

Tom: You mean *any* substance.

Joel: Natch.


> 'Vash', this is Pluto. Come in.


Crow: <Vash> Dammit, I was supposed to be on Mars!


> Vash tapped the audio implant near his ear.


Crow: <Vash> Frigging Belltone...


> Vash speaking. What's up?"
>
> I have reports that the Black Moon Family is about to make there move,
> as soon as the Queen returns home.


Joel: <Pluto> I signed you up to bring pop and to move the couches,
mattresses and the grand piano upstairs.


> So, what do you want me to do?


Tom: <Pluto> Take the Queen to a reasonably-priced buffet. Get
her some Sprite.  Laugh when she gets Italian dressing in her hair.


> The Queen's daughter will try to use her mother's Silver Millennium
> crystal. That will drop Neo-Crystal's defenses. And when that happens-


Crow: We'll cut to commericals.


> That's when the Black Moon Family will attack. Got it. So, what should
> I do?


Joel: You will supply the 'BLAM!  BLAM!'s for the ensuing battle.

Tom: <Pluto> The Queen takes half-and-half in her coffee, and likes
to finish her dinner with vanilla soft-serve. You writing this all down?


> Stick to Rini. That was take her and you into the past, where you can
> go on to your REAL mission.
>
> And what would that be?


Joel: <Pluto> The Emir of Groovefunkistan needs his burnoose cleaned
again!  Meet Agent Colin at the appointed place and don't forget the cat!


> Your primary objective is to protect both Rini and Serenity in the past.


Tom: <Pluto> Your secondary objective is to kill John Connor.  No
particular reason, he's just an irritating little shit.


> However, your secondary objective is the elimination of Ranma Saotome.


Joel: Pluto, even Biff Tannen is smart enough to know that in this
path lies danger.

Crow: This is turning into "Timecop" starring Jim Carrey, isn't it?


> Come again?
>
> Sailor Pluto begins to download the mission parameters directly into
> Vash brain.


Crow: <Vash, nodding> Vegas... hot-air balloons... cheese grater...
Florentine granite. Got it.


> I guess that I really don't have a choice.
>
> If Ranma is eliminated, then the Black Moon Family is HISTORY.


Joel: Then they can judge us harshly.  Hey, wait a minute!

Tom: <Vash> Who's history?  Mine or yours?  I'm so confused!!


> Meanwhile, on Nemesis, the tenth planet of the Solar System, where the
> Black Moon Family is secretly head-quartered…


Crow: In space, no one can hear a trumpet solo.


> "Father," said the red-haired Rubius. He was dressed in simply Chinese
> clothing (red vest, black pants and simple Chinese shoes).


Joel: 'Simply Chinese Clothing'  Thirty seven outlets, now in El Toro!

Tom: For you see, Rubeus here is too poor for a chest wax. Won't
you donate to Christian Children's Depilatory Fund so that Rubeus won't
be embarrassed anymore?


> Standing next to him were his sisters and brothers, who were assembled
> for their final assault on Crystal Tokyo.


Crow: All bald, all beaded, all badasses.


> "We await for your command."


Joel: Eighty-seven thousand Vin Diesels, who may be able to pool
their heads together to order up to three pizzas.


> Rubius' father was known as "the Wise-man", who sought to break Neo-Queen
> Serenity's iron-fisted rule.


Tom: He looked up "Shay's Rebellion" on Wikipedia, and he was ready!


> He had come back from Deep Space,


Joel: He was only down $1,530 on the trip.


> only to realize that a "False Eden" had sprung up.


Crow: Relax, it's just another McDonald's.


> He had hoped to quietly undermine Serenity through propaganda and
> surgical strikes.


Joel: His blind taste-tests only served to confuse the populace.

Crow: <Wiseman> Bombing hospitals wasn't good PR?  Dammit.


> However, with the death of his son Spencer, all bets were off.


Tom: <Wiseman> Neither poker, nor craps, nor a reasonably priced
buffet will keep me from my appointed revenge!


> "I know, son," the Wiseman said, as he removed the hood of his robe
> from his head. Streaks of grey and white peppered his hair.


Joel: He really needs a box of "Just for Dictator's" hair coloring.


> "I've trained all of you to be the best."


Tom: <singing> A-ROUND!!  Nothing's gonna ever keep you down!

Crow: It's just a matter of which one will be able to win the All-Valley
Under-18 Karate Championship.


> Through a combination of Lunarian, and alien, Wiseman spawned children
> through the cloning process, and trained to be fighters.


Tom: Couldn't he have just power-booed them up?

Crow: Soon, competing production studios were set up... Shaw
Brothers, Golden Harvest...


> Wiseman placed his right hand on Rubius' left shoulder.


Crow: <Wiseman> Oh for... if this were real, I'd have ripped
it out of the socket and clubbed you to death with it by now!

Tom: <Rubius> Impossible.  My left foot was already in... your groin.


> "Just do your best," Ranma says.


Joel: <Ranma> Oh, and sweep the leg.


> And thus the stage of a temporal paradox was created.


Crow: In the EPILOGUE, folks!

Tom: We're definitely setting the stage for a literary paradox.


> From her station at the Time Gate, Sailor Pluto smiled.


Joel: <Pluto> At this rate, I can book Falcor and Atreyu!

Tom: Are we absolutely sure Pluto is not handling the Multiverse
Gate here?

Crow: Hey Pluto, why haven't we just introduced the Vogon Constructor
fleet yet?


> "Perhaps, my Queen, you will see the error of your ways, by feeling the
> effects of your decisions years ago."


Joel: <Queen> But I shall ALWAYS serve potatoes instead of stuffing!
DIE!!


> Pluto knew that the battle between Vicious and Spike would create the
> very scenario that would force the Black Moon Family to send agents
> into the past.


Crow: And she didn't bother just doing it herself because....?

Tom: Plausible deniability when you're pretty much above all reproach
is really silly.


> If successful, the Queen's younger self and King Endymion's younger
> self will be forced to rely on each other, and thus prevent Darien
> Chiba from having feelings for Rei Hino in the first place.


Joel: Pluto evidently has "48 HRS" and "Lethal Weapon" in high
rotation in her DVD player.


> Eliminating the Wiseman's younger self is the icing on the cake.


Tom: So, folks, when time itself shrivels like a burnt cookie, you
know who to blame!

Crow: This will just lead to JFK reading this, wondering if this is
where he went wrong about the whole Castro thing.


> With a smug grin, Pluto turns off the lights, as she prepares for the
> Black Moon Family's final assault.


Crow: <Pluto> Mwahaha... ow, my toenail!  Dammit!

Joel: <Pluto> A solid Cabarnet Sauvignon 2035 will allow for maximum
enjoyment of carnage, screwed-up timelines, and entropy overwhelming the
universe.


> And she has no problem eliminating anyone who would stand in her way
> at trying to protect Crystal Tokyo.


Tom: <Yoda> Begun, the crossover wars have.

Crow: Begun?  Begun??  The hell, where's the ending??


> The End?


Joel: Readers?  Resolution?  Make your own up!

Crow: And now enjoy three minutes of organ music as you impatiently
wait for an after-credits bonus scene that'll never come.  Damn you, Monty
Python!

All: RUN AWAY!!!  RUN AWAY!!!

(Joel picks up Tom and follows Crow out of the theater)

SATELLITE OF LOVE

     "Evil Sailor Moon, evil Nabiki, evil Ranma, evil Sailor Pluto... it's
nice to get a story that just keeps circling itself like a dog catching
its tail."  Tom remarked as they emerged from the theater.

     "And what was the point of the Matrix subplot anyway?  It
lead nowhere and was basically flushed after the first part!"  Joel
wondered.

     "Well, maybe the author wanted to save it for an anime and
videogame tie-in.  Just remember, if Luna D'Cat fails, Neo fails,
that cannot happen at ANY cost."  Crow said in a deadpan voice.

     "Heh, pretty much."  Tom chuckled as Joel noticed the red light
flashing and gave it a tap.  

     "What do you think, sirs?" Joel inquired.

*     *     *

DEEP 13

     "I think... tomorrow is another day.  Push the button, Frank."
Dr. Forrester replied with a smirk.

     "THAT WAS EASY."

     "The OTHER button, Frank!"

     "Sorry, it's just so tempting..."
 
     "FRANK!"

     *FWOOSH!*
