Read Me! XD : In a desperate attempt to retrieve copies of the first four chapters of this fanfic, I've uploaded again the only chapter I managed to find. It also happens to be the latest chapter I've finished. I'd really appreciate it if someone could provide me with copies of the missing chapters, so if you guys happen to have ANY of them at all, hope you could share 'em with me. I'd also like to apologize in advance for uploading an incomplete story. I know that it could be very frustrating on your part. I'll try to make up for it with this I-don't-know-how-well-it-is-written summary.
Oh yeah, before that, I obviously don't own K-ON! nor Ranma ½. Like duh!
The story so far:
After a three-week vacation in China, Tainaka Ritsu returns to school with the biggest change she's ever experienced in her life; a "special" kind of change that can only be brought about by the cursed hot springs of Jusenkyo. Despite this rather unpleasant change, she eagerly meets with her band mates without informing them of her return. Her surprise plan backfires when they throw a welcome back party for her in their clubroom right after class. Still, even more surprising was the sudden presence of the uninvited Sawa-chan!
Ahem! Going back, the members of Houkago Tea Time excitedly ask Ritsu of her adventures in China while enjoying their share of tea and treats. For fear of exposing her secret, she only gives a brief account of her vacation and then redirects the whole conversation to the happenings in the club during her absence. She succeeds in her attempt, and no one questions her further until the end of the party. They then part ways after, and it seems that Ritsu was able to pull off with her act. That is, until Mio straightforwardly asks if Ritsu was hiding something from her. Despite Ritsu's denials, Mio persists with her questioning. Ritsu finally blurts out that she has a lover, sending Mio away in a flurry of tears. Ritsu immediately regrets what she said, but decides not to follow Mio for the time being.
Hours passed after her confrontation with Mio. Ritsu finally decides to send her a text message, but gets no reply. In an effort to contact Mio, she calls up her best friend's house. To her alarm, she finds out that Mio hasn't arrived yet. She quickly runs out of the house while instructing Satoshi to lock all the doors until she returns. Satoshi shouts at Ritsu to bring an umbrella, but she was already too far to hear him.
With adrenaline coursing through her body and the worst scenarios flashing in her mind, Ritsu frantically runs to the place she suspects her best friend to be. She finally arrives at the playground she and Mio used to frequent in their childhood. She quickly spots Mio on one of the swings. But she is not alone. Just behind her, two men are slowly creeping up to her, with only one thing on their minds…
Ritsu rushes at them, takes them by surprise and knocks one of them down. She goes for the other one and starts to beat him up. In her frenzy, she fails to realize that rain is already pouring down heavily. Just when it seems that Ritsu has the upper hand, Mio lets out a scream. The man he has knocked out earlier already regained consciousness and is pinning Mio to the ground. The man who Ritsu is fighting takes advantage of the distraction and stabs Ritsu's arm with a pocketknife. He then returns all the punches he has received until he beats Ritsu to the ground. Another cry comes from Mio. She pleads the man to spare her. The man only responds maliciously. That's when Ritsu set off like a time bomb. He goes berserk and starts beating the man on top of him even worse than before, this time making sure that he gets unconscious for a long time. He heads for the man on Mio, and beats him to a bloody pulp as well.
Ritsu then pulls out the pocketknife still on his arm, ignoring the pain, and is about to finish the man off. A voice from behind implores him to stop. Realizing what he is about to do, he drops the pocketknife and goes to Mio's side. Though disheveled, she assures him that she's okay. As they hug each other, Mio notices some changes in Ritsu. However, she fails to realize the most obvious change of all. After picking up Elizabeth from the muddy ground, Mio supports Ritsu as they both trudge home in the pouring rain.
Upon arriving at the Tainaka residence, Ritsu calls out to Satoshi, but he fails to recognize his brother's voice. Satoshi only lets them in after receiving confirmation from Mio. Satoshi and Mio then decide to take Ritsu to the bathroom to treat him. On their way there, Ritsu finally passes out but they manage to reach their destination by dragging the dead weight a bit.
As they prepare to treat Ritsu, only then does Mio realize his gender. Bewildered, Mio questions Satoshi, but then decides to hold her questions for later. They both shift their focus to the task at hand. To Satoshi's surprise, Mio takes up the challenge to treat Ritsu's wound. He comes to understand just how deeply Mio cares for his brother. Finally, with the stab wound treated and with Ritsu undressed (and with a lot of convincing from Satoshi), the two heave Ritsu into a tub of hot water. And with that, Satoshi runs to the door and leaves the rest of the job to Akiyama Mio.
Bam! How's that for a summary? Hehe
Kidding aside, summarizing stuff definitely isn't one of my strong points. I hope that somehow, though, you'd still find it fairly satisfying. With this done, onwards to the 5th chapter!
