Prologue: The Decision
Ranma sat on the roof of the Tendo home thinking about the events of the past day. He and Akane had tried to get married and everyone came to ruin it. Ranma had expected as much from Shampoo, Ryoga, and the Kuno's. Ukyo was supposed to be his friend and she tried to kill Akane with exploding food. Then again when all of the chaos Akane had mallet him into the atmosphere for the wedding being ruined. Why did Akane even blame him? Nabiki was the one who had invited all the wedding destroyers.
For some reason or another everything just seemed to click. Why in the world was Ranma wasting his time in Nermia. Every one here wanted Ranma to follow their plans for his life (with no regard to his own feeling), or simply wanted him dead.
His first thoughts were of his father. The Panda kept saying that if he didn't marry Akane he had no honor. Why would marrying Akane be any different then him marrying Ukyo, or any number of the other fiancés he had thanks to his dad. His dad just wanted him to marry Akane so that he could live the rest of his life off of them and never do a drop of work again. Not that he did much in the first place.
Then his thoughts turned to the Amazons. Cologne wanted him to marry Shampoo to produce strong daughters for the Amazon Tribe. She didn't care that Ranma had no feelings what so ever for her granddaughter.
The final big manipulator was Nabiki, who just wanted him to be a good little moneymaker for her. She did whatever she could to keep him as her slave forever.
Mostly everyone else fell into the category of wanting him dead. That even included his mother, and Akane. His mother never hesitated in reminding him that if he wasn't a man among men he would have to take his own life. Here it had been ten years since he even saw her and she was willing to have him kill himself? What kind of mother was she?
He had thought there might just of been something between himself and Akane. Their relationship had gotten better over time, but still Akane was always so quick to blame him on any little thing that happened to her. Why was Ukyo and Shampoo almost killing her his fault. Nabiki had sold them the invitations. She never once took the time to listen to his side of things.
Ranma stood up and made his decision, one he probably should of made along time ago. He was leaving Nermia. The only problem was where would he go? Then a conversation he had with his mother struck him. He had family in the U.S. What was his Aunt's name Kagome Riber. That's where he would go. According to his mother her family had disowned her for marrying Genma in the first place, so her sister would hopefully protect him if she tried to have him commit seppuku. With no more thought Ranma left the Tendo home with just the things that he had on him and made his way to America.
