I do not own Ranma ½. Miss Takahashi owns it.

The Tendou family and the Saotomes were sitting in the dining room, having breakfast.

"Ahh, This is a fine morning, isn't it, Saotome?" Soun asked.

"Yes it is, Tendo." Genma agreed.

Ranma looked down at his plate, saying nothing.

"Ranma-kun? Are you all right?" Kasumi asked.

Ranma still said nothing.

"Hey, answer my sister, you pervert!" Akane snapped.

Suddenly, Ranma abruptly stood up and began to sing.

I can't this take life anymore! It's all nothing but a lie!

The Tendous and Genma were in shock as Ranma kicked the table over and walked over it.

All this pain, All this malice, It's so intense, I can't stand it!

Ranma strode out of the Tendou house, Akane following him with her mallet, screaming angrily at him.

I just want to fly away and be free from this cruel joke called "My life"!

But in order to be free, I have to… take a stand and take control of my fate!

Ranma burst in a full run as Ryoga jumped out from nowhere, shouting that he defiled Akane once again.

"RANMA, PREPARE TO DIE!"

Just let me live my life and don't trouble me anymore!

Ranma turned around and began to block all of Ryoga's blows and kicks. Ryoga growled and hurled his umbrella at him.

Ranma back-flipped onto a bus that was heading to Akibahara.

"Come back here, Ranma!"

I just want to have a peace of mind!

Ryoga jumped on the bus and threw a fusillade of punches and kicks. "RANMA!!!"

Just please leave me be... And go find your own happiness! If I can't live my life as I please, Then what will I do?!

Ranma backflipped off the bus and grabbed a half-full water bottle and splashed it on Ryoga, triggering his curse.

P-chan screeched as Ranma punted him to the distant skies. Akane came from his right as she screamed at him.

"RANMA NO BAKA!"

I can't understand it! Why do you want me to suffer so much? Do you hate me? Am I that worthless to you?

Ranma jumped back as Akane swung Mallet-sama. "You pervert! Stop dodging!"

The cursed boy did not answer as he ran from her. "STOP!" The youngest Tendou shrieked.

Ranma kept running as the cherry blossoms fell.

But, if for one moment, can you please show some kindness to me...?

Soon, the Nerima Wrecking Crew approached Ranma, shouting threats and sweet nothings to the poor Saotome.

I can't take this life anymore! It's all nothing but a lie!

Ranma glared at the oncoming crowd and let out a wordless roar as he dashed head-on.

Akane also let out a battle cry as she brought her mallet up to strike down Ranma.

Kuno and Mousse drew out their weapons, while Kodachi, Shampoo, and Ukyou brought out theirs.

Ranma began to summon a massive amount of ki and let out a powerful Hiryu Shoten Ha, sending all of the NWC flying into the heavens above.

I will not be held back anymore! I will find happiness! I will become a new man!

Ranma walked away to the Nerima City Limits. He looked back with a tear in his eye and softly sighed.

"My name is spelled with the characters for 'horse' and 'wild', but it basically translates to chaos." With that, he crossed over the boundaries to a new life.
