Hikariryuu: Ahhh! Help!





Kenshin, Kurama, and Shizuka drove to Nerima to visit their relatives. (They lived next to the Tendos.) Shizuka's long pink-hued hair was in a braid, and flew with the wind. Kenshin was leaning into the car seat, with both arms behind his head, listening to the Japanese soft rock as they rode along. Kurama was steering the car, chuckling as the wind caressed his blood-red tresses.

The three teens finally arrived at their destination, their relative's house. Outside the door, there was a letter addressed to them:

Dear cousins,

We suddenly had a situation, our son is getting married in four days, and they planned everything without us. Sorry that we can't be here for New Year, go use the house as if its your own. The key is underneath the welcome mat.

From, Your Cousins

Kenshin slapped his forehead and joked, "Guess we'll have to change our last names to Kinimoto." Kurama smiled while Shizuka fetched the key and unlocked the door to let them in. The three wandered around the house since it was a while when Kurama last visited, and Kenshin and Shizuka never came before. Shizuka was fascinated by the large garden and went outside to greet the neighbors. Kurama and Kenshin tagged along, since in the letters, the Tendos were known to be quite wild. They crossed over the lawn to the front door and ran the doorbell. A girl with short dark- blue hair and wide brown eyes, smiling. "Hello," the young girl greeted, "Are you the neighbor's cousins? My name is Akane." "Hai. My name is Himura Shizuka, my brother Himura Kenshin, and my other brother Minamino Shuuichi." "Oi, Akane, who's there?" asked a boy with black hair in a small braid. "Ranma, they're the cousins," Akane replied, smile still plastered in place. The whole family was slowly introduced and the three teens sat down to have some tea with the Tendos.

"So, you three do martial arts ne? How about coming over to spar with Ranma and Akane? I need them in tip- top shape, what do you say?" asked Mr. Tendo. "Sure," Kurama replied smiling. "But they're all girls!" protested Ranma. "We're not girls," Kurama and Kenshin said at the same time, a tick was slowly building on their heads. "But you guys look and sound like girls.." Ranma countered with a confused expression in place. The two brothers looked ready to kill after seven minutes into their 'fight'. Shizuka looked worried and tried to divert their attention, "Aniki, did you guys know that this dojo is famous for outstanding fighting contestants?" Both boys shook their heads, "Iya"

The next day the three siblings walked over to the Tendo dojo for some sparing sessions.
