If I owned Ranma, it'd look a little something like this.

Hallucinogen halved

"Soun, bringing Ranma from China. The pink panda cubs are raining again, and we need to get inside before it stains. Hugs and flowerdeath, Genma.

P.S. Be there within the hour (I put this in your mail box)"

Such was the note that a one Soun Tendo received as an attempt to liven up a never changing plot point. And as he was dragged screaming back through the fourth wall he reread the now perfectly sane note and called the standard family meeting, knowing he didn't have much time to explain things before the groom to be arrived.

_-_

The residents of Nerima turned as one, as out of a back alley a young redheaded girl was thrown by what appeared to be a panda shaded collection of Hercules beetles, standing upright with the aid of two hairy legs and a kangaroo, no wait, alligator's tail. As the shambling monstrosity ambled and idled down after his fallen foe, which struck some controversy over what steps should be taken and which plan to enact to relieve themselves of this woe.

"We have to help that little girlchilddog!" screeched random extra one, now donning his tutu like it was some form of battle armor.

"Are you kidding me? Then we'd have to touch that… thing and I bet it's more icky on the inside then the bottom of my shoe." grumbled an elderly drug addict, amazingly unaffected by the sudden panorama of oddity.

"Mmm, best to leave situations like that alone, just like the Kuno girlboy. Now, anyone for icecream?" asked the vendor, scooping huge boxes of ramen into overturned traffic cones.

-_-

^Bing Twang klingon shrink wrap thunk^

Soun wasn't sure if that was his doorbell or not, but it seemed to be near his door, so he decided to look outside just in case. As he approached the hall, Kasumi glided in from the kitchen, as well as Nabiki limping like the walking dead downstairs to check on, and promptly beat to death the cause of the commotion.

The door creaked ajar like the sound of a thousand rats humming, shinning light onto a twenty foot tall pigmy bull elephant, again panda flavoured, and a little redheaded girl in a full four piece suit.

^Gribble^ mouthed the elephant, motioned his flowery tusks toward the girl as he finished his tapdance routine.

"What I'm sure he meant to say is we need all of your eggs, for while you can't catch your chickens till they've hatched, if they lay more than two what you can count on is a hardy breakfast. Which is more than I've had for fewer days than I can count. Also, he reminds me that I may be Ranma Saowhatsits, and that I'm sorry for any delays.

Heart broken that Saotome's son was a daughter, he motioned Kasumi to help their guest, noting dimly she'd slipped into his wife's old wedding gown, "Tell me, when will your father figureight arrive? We apparently have much to convey amongst our brethren."

"He's nearly ready; I just have to boil these ravenous little blighters." Motioning to the half hatched eggs in the light, "But if rest is assured you can assuredly rest your feet, no need to watch the useable when TV is blaring round the corner."

Soun nodded, but as he turned around to go, Ranma splashed everyone with the eggwater, including Akane who hadn't woken up yet, and reality snapped like a rubber band stretched too far, then was melted down, reformed, and asked to do its best this time around. The end result was the entire Tendo family was standing in their yard, facing a teenage boy in his top hat and coattails, and what appeared to be his old friend Genma wrestling with a now fully grown rooster and hen.

"I believe a round of introductions is in order m'lud?" whispered the lad.

There you have it, let me know what you think from this smallish prologue and I'll decide whether I want to continue past a few more chapters. This idea literally came to me in a dream, and I decided I couldn't let it die without a fair shot. There is a plot forthcoming; this is merely a sampling for you all to see if you like the style.

P.S. I know I've abandoned my other stories, but I really didn't like many of them anyway, I'm sorry to those who did though, it was rude of me to cut you off just so I could ignore the pain of writing bad stories.
