CHAPTER ONE: ARRIVAL IN NERIMA
Where am I? , I thought, walking down a crowded Japanese street. I looked at a
sign: Welcome To The Nerima District! Nerima…? I couldn't understand any of the
people around me sine they were Japanese and my native language was Mandarin. I
passed by a very colorful, but small, restaurant… Neko Hanten, the sign read. At least
I can read Japanese, I thought solemnly. I saw a purple haired girl walk out of the
Restaurant and get on a bicycle. She looked very familiar…It couldn't be… No it
couldn't . I kept walking, and to my horror, it started raining very hard. Oh God, I
thought, as I ran into the restaurant but it was too late. My curséd body had already
appeared. Unfortunately I am cursed, it's a long story.
I had decided to journey from my Amazon village. I had left two days before and
Passing the Mystical Training Ground of Jusenkyo when I saw a boy wearing a yellow
Bandanna on the cliff above. He seemed to be looking for something. All of a sudden, a
giant panda and a red-haired girl with a pigtail appeared. They almost knocked the kid off
but he hung on to the edge of the cliff face. His hand started to slip…then the edge broke
off and he fell into one of the springs. Worried, I started running towards the spring he
had fallen in, when I slipped and fell into of spring of my own. The water was cold. I got
out and I was a man! It felt strange (in some ways more than one). I noticed a black pig
wearing a yellow bandanna, being carried off by that panda! That boy, I thought, he
turned into a pig. The panda brought him to a little cottage a few yards away from the
springs. Hmm… I thought, I looked through the window. A short man wearing a brown
hat with a little star on it was holding the poor boy(pig) over a pot. He laughed then
dropped the pig in. Then the boy jumped out! I had to laugh to myself because the boy
had no clothes on. I had also realized… hot water…reverses the cursed effect. The boy
ran out of the house. The man and the panda followed after him. I creeped inside the
house and poured the rest of the boiling water on me, "AIYAAA!!!" I screamed. I was
back to my female Amazon self again. Oh good, I thought, but I'm still cursed. I'll just
stay away from cold water.
So that's my story so far… I walked into the restaurant. I didn't see anyone in it.
"Oh who's there?" a voice asked. I couldn't understand what it had said. I
answered in my own language.
[I am trying to take shelter from the rain.] I said in my native Amazon tongue.
[Ah… you speak my tribe's language…Who are you boy?] the voice said. I
looked over to my right. Sitting on the counter was one of the respected elders of my
tribe, Cologne.
[Cologne?] I asked.
[How do you know me, for I do not you, Boy] she said.
[I am not a 'Boy' I am an Amazon. I fell into one of Jusenkyo's many springs] I
said, sadly.
[Ah… I see but…who are you?]
[Bring me some warm water and you shall see.]
[Fine.] she said. She went and boiled some water for me. When it was done, she
poured it on me.
[Oh my! I know who you are! Hello Riku.] she said, surprised.
[How have you been, Cologne?] I asked.
[ Fine… how is your mother, Ryu?] she asked.
[She died two months ago] I said.
[Oh I'm sorry Riku] she said, her voice comforting.
[Wait! If you are here, then…that was Shampoo that I saw!]
[Yes my Great-granddaughter is here with me]
[Does she speak Japanese like you?]
[Yes but not very well.] she said, solemnly.
"Great-Grandmother , Shampoo back!" said a voice from the door.
[Hide me, I don't want Shampoo to know I'm here]
[Okay] she said. She filled a bucket with cold water and splashed it on me.
[Thank you, Cologne] I said.
Shampoo walked in. " Who this, Great- Grandmother?"
"Oh just someone I know."
"Ranma still at school…that bad." Shampoo said.
"Oh well, Shampoo…Just wait 'til he gets out" Cologne said.
I couldn't help it. I missed my Amazon sister. I had to say something even though
I was a guy. [Sister Shampoo, I've missed you.]
