Story: Fudge Bunnies

 

<B>Present</b>

Ranma had enjoyed herself far more than she'd ever admit to. She sat up, she stretched out her arms, and then she looked around. The girls were all looking at Konatsu, who was wearing a bunnysuit. Oh. One of those cursed bunnysuits, was it? Great. All that Ranma could do was sigh wearily and pinch the bridge of her nose.

"I wonder what that one does?" Mariko whispered. "They all have superpowers, right?"

"Something like that..." Ranma grumbled. "Blegh. Great. At least Konatsu's not the sort to abuse it, y'know?"

Mariko, though, her mind was going to other matters. How to get Ranma and Akane together. Maybe it would've been better if, like, Akane had worn that bunnysuit instead. That would've been a huge improvement, like, enormous and stuff!

But right as she was thinking about that... Who should burst through the door, but Tomiko herself.

"Found you!" Tomiko yelled, pointing an accusing finger right across the room straight at her. "At last, there you are!"

"Wonderful timing as always~" Mariko chirped. She sighed and jumped up to her feet, turning around to face her rival with nothing but disdain in her mind. "Can you please not? Like, we're in the middle of something right now."

"You'd like that, wouldn't you?" Tomiko chirped, cracking a knitted ribbon like a whip. "Oh, I bet you would, huh? Well now! Face the hypnotic power of my butt!"

She whirled around before anyone could stop her, and aimed that big butt right at them before anyone could stop her. Mariko gasped in horror. Normally this would only work on one person at a time - but now she was doing it to a whole group?!

"I've refined my technique," Tomiko smirked triumphantly. "My big booty blaster will leave you all brainless! I will turn you against Mariko before you even know what's happened, and force you to make her submit as well! It's the perfect revenge scheme!"

Oh no! She'd unlocked greater power, had she? That was terrible, it was rotten, it was - It was!

"Could you not, that's kinda gross," Yuka said. Then she nudged Sayuri. "Hey, cut that out!"

"Sorry, sorry!" Sayuri chirped in reply. "I mean, it's a nice butt. The bunnysuit makes it really pop, but -"

But nothing was happening. Nothing at all. Simultaneously though, Shampoo was sneaking up on Akane, and then -

"You give up Airen to Shampoo!" she yelped, pulling Akane right into her tender cleavage.

"Get lost!" Akane yelped. Pushing her away, much to Shampoo's own surprise. Nothing was happening. The bunnysuit powers weren't doing anything.

"Huh?" Tomiko grunted in confusion. "The heck is going on around here?"

Note that she hadn't stopped shaking her butt at them. Though really, at this point it was probably sheer momentum - that big round butt was most likely being dragged around by the mass in that ass, or something like that. Either way, Mariko was retrieving her baton, skipping across the room and wallop right on the small of Tomiko's back.

"Get L-O-S-T!!" Mariko chirped and sent her rival packing.

Alright. Now what? She turned around and examined the room. Shampoo, it seemed, was also really confused, and still trying to annoy Akane with her brainwashing bunnysuit... but nothing was happening at all.

"Oh!" Ranma thumped her hand into her fist. "Um! Hey, Shampoo! Yuka! Could you step outside for a second? I wanna try a thing!"

"Ranma!" Akane yelled.

"If you quit being uncute for five seconds, maybe you'll learn something," Ranma grumbled, and led the two girls into another room. Mariko followed, fascinated to see what Ranma had figured out. "Alright, Yuka? Don't hop on one leg. Shampoo, try to get her to hop on one leg."

"You heard airen," Shampoo said, bending over. "You hop on one leg or else Shampoo -"

"Yes, Mistress!" Yuka replied, and immediately began to hop up and down.

"Oy, Konatsu!" Ranma called "Get out here a sec, would you?"

"You bellowed, Master Ranma?" Konatsu asked, and Yuka stopped hopping up and down on one leg. 

"What was I just doing?" Yuka asked. She sheepishly returned her foot to the ground, and - Aha! Wow!

"That's my best friend for you!" Mariko giggled. "Figuring that out so easily is, like, super duper smart! Konatsu's bunnysuit is vanilla flavoured - cuz it negates the effects of the other bunnysuits!"

"But only when they're in the same area," Ranma said. "In other words... Konatsu acts like a great equaliser!"

"That not fair!" Shampoo huffed. She then turned towards Konatsu, scowling at him as she stepped forward to confront him. "You interfere in Shampoo plan to seduce airen? Shampoo kill!"

What happened next was actually kind of fascinating after the fact, but in the moment it really wasn't because they were kind of panicking a little bit. A fight between Shampoo and Konatsu was going to be pretty destructive, for certain. All the same - When Shampoo lifted her hand to attack, instead...?

Nothing happened. Her arm went slack. For some reason, she was staring at Konatsu's chest.

"Please either go home, or enjoy yourself without attacking others," Konatsu said.

"Yes, of course!" Shampoo said, and then turned around to go back inside without another word.

"The hell just - " Ranma began to ask.

"It seems that it does not just negate bunnysuit powers," Konatsu said. "It also allows me to use them against their wearers. Perhaps I should have requested Miss Tomiko reconsider her life choices rather than letting you send her on her way?"

Mariko considered that for a moment, but shrugged. "Nah, it's better this way," she said. Then, she jumped up and giggled. "By the way, we have a couple of fudge bunnies left - who wants one?"
