She felt powerful. Not powerful in the sense that she could do pretty much anything she damn well pleased. She'd felt like that since yesterday. This was a different kind of power. This was the kind of power that said "If I punch you, your bones will break so hard that when they've finished mending they will break again." She sat up. Naked. Not even slightly chilly. Looking down at herself, she let out a low wolf whistle. If she was someone else right now, she'd tap that fine ass. With a body like this, she didn't even need to use her newly acquired monstrous strength. She could break people with a wink and a come hither look. Sure, she could do that before, sort of, but now... She could probably get girls to faint. Her mind cast back to her conversation with Cologne - yes! She was powerful beyond measure now! She wanted to laugh at the absurdity of it all. She was so powerful, she could do anything, and... and she would give Ranma Saotome the world. She would do it for him. For his sake.
Her hand reached for her discarded clothes, but at the last moment she thought better of it. There were clothes strewn about the dojo, and the sounds of conversation drifted in through the open door. She walked to the door on shaky legs and peered out. They were having a party by the looks of things. It would be rude not to join them. Out she walked, stretching her limbs with a stifled yawn she hadn't felt coming. "Hey girls!" she called, drawing their attention to her.
"Welcome sister," Belldandy said, rising and floating towards Nabiki with a content smile. "On behalf of all of us, we thank you for what you have done here."
Nabiki looked around a little nervously. No sarcasm in Belldandy's voice was detected... they all seemed pretty happy. And they were all naked. With a cute boy sitting in the middle of it all, sneaking quick glances here and there, though he seemed to be looking at her in a rather intent fashion. She felt a little flattered. But she felt... she had to say something. She had to... had to do something important right here and now. Something essential.
"Excuse me, girls, but... As much fun as today was, I don't think we're quite finished yet." There were confused murmurs throughout the room. She had their attention - good. Now she had to make the pitch. "What I mean is, there are bound to be some people that notice how, ah, different we all look."
Sayuri gasped. "My parents! Oh, goodness! They'll go spare!"
"I live at a girl's dorm..." Motoko said, "Occasionally we take a bath in the hot spring together. I can keep myself covered with robes most of the time, but at that bath..."
"You see? These are all potentially huge problems. What if any of them decide to look into what happened? What if they try to undo the wonderful transformation we've all gone through?"
Displeased murmurs spread, but Ranma's eyes narrowed in concentration.
"There must be something we can do, Nabiki!"
In response, she sighed and decided to try something out. "I only wish that nobody would think anything suspicious about our transformations," and there it was, she could feel the faint glow of a granted wish even from this distance. Ranma blinked in mild confusion, still staring at her, which was a bit weird."But someone is bound to! That's why we need a plan."
"A plan?" Cologne asked, though Nabiki knew she already had a good idea of what Nabiki meant. "What sort of plan?"
"Why, we just need to show them all how wonderful it is to live like this! If we think things through carefully enough, we can negate threats before they even come up. With Cologne and Shampoo's help, we can prevent the rest of their village coming to pay a visit to see what's wrong!" by making them too horny to do anything but obey her and more importantly Ranma's lead. "With Hinako's help, we can take the school! And Kodachi gives us an entrance to St Hebereke's! Meanwhile, Motoko wasn't it? We can use you to get at the other girls of your dorm!"
"Won't that spread Ranma a bit thin?"
"No, of course not! All we need to do is figure out what gave him this amazing ability, and give it to other boys who will do the work for us! They'll form their own groups like ours, and be all the happier for it."
They seemed willing to discuss this, and thanks to Cologne and Belldandy they'd be all the likelier to listen. It paid to have a few brainwashed stooges in the audience to do your bidding. Soon, all threats to Ranma's happines would be eliminated in some form or other.
"Nabiki! A word!"
Speaking of Ranma... that wasn't a pleasant tone of voice. Still, she had to follow him to see what he wanted.
