Disclaimer: I do not own Ranma ½
"Ni hou Airen!" shrieked Shampoo with joy as she pulled him into a back breaking hug. The fuming Akane's blood pressure sky rocketed and in a few quick strides, she bashed Ranma on the head with her school bag. As expected, it was only a matter of moments until every single other fiancée appeared to try to impress Ranma. And, naturally, it broke out into a dangerous cat-fight. Ukyo savagely fought with her giant spatula, Kodachi screeched with her twirling baton, and Shampoo displayed her Amazon techniques. Akane backed out of the fight and went home, but not before she reminded Ranma that he was a jerk and a pervert through sheer anger. Then, the rest of the crew followed. Mousse laughed insanely as he hurled a various amount of objects from his sleeves, Kuno shouted poetic justice about the pig-tailed girl and Akane, and Ryoga, panting, who finally arrived after a week of wandering around the world in who know's where.
"I have to get away from these fiancées!" thought Ranma as he dodged the blows. "LOOK!" he screamed, pointing in a random direction. "MONEY!" All the fighting stopped as they scanned the areas. Ranma took full advantage of this and escaped before his fiancées and rivals could notice his absence.
His heart pounded as he ran for his life. "What am I gonna do about them?" thought Ranma. "They're never gonna go away." Jumping on the roof of the Tendo dojo fence, he leaped into his room window. He didn't want to see Akane at the moment since she'd probably be in another furious frenzy.
^^^^^^^^^^
"ARGH!" shouted Akane. "WHERE IS HE!? HE'S GONNA MAKE US LATE AGAIN!!!" It was common that Ranma and Akane were always late but Akane still found it difficult to ruin her usual past habits of punctuality.
Sprinting up to Ranma's room, she flung open his door and prepared to yell but her words stopped short from her mouth.
No one was there. "Could Ranma have already gone to school before me?" Akane thought.
"Hey Kasumi," Akane started when she came downt he steps. "Did Ranma leave already?"
"No, I haven't seen him," replied Kasumi.
"Oh well. He may have slipped out the window and left," said Akane, hopefully.
With hasty good-byes, she left the dojo and headed to school as quick as she could. In one part of her mind, she plotted to give Ranma a piece of her mind when she saw him at school. But the other half worried.
^^^^^^^
No Ranma showed to school that day. Akane walked home pondering on his disappearance. "Maybe I was too hard on him," she thought. "Ranma.you jerk.you dummy."
^^^^^^^
A month passed since Ranma's absence. School closed for the summer and Nerima started to become quieter than usual. Akane sat in her room after school. Sadly, she sighed.
"Akane," Kasumi said. "You've got mail!" Taking the letter, she split the envelope and looked at it's contents, not really caring a lot. Then, she noticed the handwriting. It was from Ranma!
"Dear Akane," it said.
"I am sorry for disappearing on short notice. But it couldn't have been avoided. I have traveled to a far away place to regain myself. I suppose you could call this a training trip, but it is more mental than physical. When I have completed the 'training' I will most definitely return. Even if I don't, I will be back before school starts again.
Please wait for me
Ranma"
Inside the envelope, there was another paper. Inside was a rare flower, flattened from being pressed in a book. Akane fingered it gently. This would mean an entire summer without Ranma. It seemed enjoyable at first thought. She would being able to do all the things that she couldn't do when he was there, like relax, read a book, or other various things. But then she realized, he wouldn't be there by her side with his silly smile or comforting words.
"It's decided," Akane thought. "Ranma, I'm going to find you if it's the last thing I do!"
"Ni hou Airen!" shrieked Shampoo with joy as she pulled him into a back breaking hug.
