I do not wn Ranma 1/2 or any of the caracters in here. they are all owned by Rumiko Takahashi.
Nabiki's Secret
Nabiki looked at the betting slips, she was sure to make a good profit for the fight. I t was Ranma against Ryouga. Ryouga had challenged Ranma after getting back from 'training trip', he had said that he had a couple moves up his sleeve. (Well, he probably didn't say it like that, but my followers had reported it like that.)
For a moment Nabiki felt unsure. She shook herself as she thought 'Your doing this, forget what your dreams were as a kid.'
She said aloud "You have to do this, your family needs the money."
She kept repeating 'Forget your dreams, do what you have to,' in her heads. By the time she was to the spot where the fight was to be held most people were there. Just when she got there Ryouga arrived. Once again she felt a pang of uncertainty.... And wistfulness How she wished she could show everyone that she fought too. That she was more than just a cold emotionless mercenary was.
She could just imagine what people would say if anyone found out about her wishes and dreams. They would say "I can't believe that girls dreams, I mean just look at her. She's heartless. How could she have those kinds of dreams?"
She gazed out at the martial artists' bout to fight. How surprised would they be to learn that her goal in life wasn't to get a ton of money? How they feel if they ever found out she was a martial artist?
She didn't have any more time to think because the fight had begun. About halfway threw, when Ranma threw a Mouko Takabisha, Ryouga grinned and shouted "Fire Claw!" There was a claw shaped fire blast. My eyes opened wide along with the others as it threw Ranma to the ground.
Everyone had thought Ryouga had won, but a much stronger Mouko Takabisha was sent out of were Ranma was, and Ryouga was sent sailing away.

That night Nabiki smiled as she perfected the 'Fire Claw'. For now she would practice in secret, but someday, she'd tell everyone. Someday, They would find out she's much more than a mercenary.
The next morning at breakfast, Kasumi noticed she was eating more than usual, and said, "Are you al right Nabiki? You're eating more than usual."
"I'm fine, just hungry," I replied.
At school, I realized that everyone had noticed that I was changing. For one, I was stronger. Two, I ate a whole lot more, & three, I was forgetting about collecting money and such.
Everyone kept asking me if I was okay. I always had the same answer; "I'm fine."
That night when I was out in the dojo practicing, I heard something and spun around. Standing there in the dojo doorway was Ranma, with a look of shock on his face.
"I guess now you know my secret Ranma," I said.
Ranma replied "You're really good."
I stared at him in shock, and demanded, "Aren't you the least a little surprised?"
"I'm surprised at how good you are, but I'd been suspecting something like this, but you're a lot better than what I suspected," He said.
"How did you know?" I asked.
He replied, "Well, for a while you've seemed to get stronger and started being more forgetful about money. You know what, how about I train you?"
"Sure," I replied.
He smiled at me, and I could see that my dream of being a martial artist was getting closer and closer.
And maybe some day it would come true. Somday.
