THE USUAL BEGINNING...
The sun was shining, the sky was blue with not a cloud in the sky. It was the middle of the school year and all in all it was a perfectly 'normal' day , and every perfectly normal day had a spitfire round between the two most well know martial artists …
"RANMA,YOUJERK!" Akane Tendo shouted at the boy walking on the fence next to her.
"Hey! At least I am telling the truth, ya know!" Ranma Saotome replied, raising his voice only slightly.
"I HATE you!"
"gee, I didn't know." Ranma said sarcastically "well,what DID ya expect me to say? 'oh akane, this is the best toxic waste I have ever tasted ?'"
"I ..um. I …you ..you sex changing pervert!"
"oh yeah? Look who's talking ,you ugly tomboy"
"What did you say?"
"What you heard."
"That does it Ranma!" fumed an angry akane "I don't want to see your face again and nor do I want to talk to you"
"well that makes TWO of us!"screamed an angry ranma
"FINE!"
"FINE!"
They reached home in stony silence. Akane opened her bag and ripped a page from her book. "I am using the bath first," she wrote.
"Like I care," came Ranma's terse reply.
"Hmph."
"He didn't have to be so rude," Akane seethed inwardly as she stripped off her school uniform. "So I'm not good at cooking . . . Well ok, I'm terrible at cooking, but at least I try," she thought.
" 'You ugly tomboy,' Ranma, I can't believe you said that. I can't believe you mean that," she thought as she lifted her leg from the water and examined it. "Do I look that bad Ranma?" she wondered. "UGH, I can't believe I fell for a jerk like you . . . . See if I care about how you drool over your sexy and cute fiancées ! You don't want to see my face right? So be it." The angry girl emptied the pail of cold water in her hands over her head and tried to think of other things.
Meanwhile . . . in the dojo.
Ranma was practicing his katas, but his mind was somewhere else.
"I shouldn'a said that," he mused. "I was pretty annoyed at shampoo for making me eat her chinese mumbo jumbo cooking , I mean I am still alive n all but, there is a limit to what even I can take. But I just found out that even the most strongest dose of mind control food can't defeat the great Ranma Saotome ! ugh what the hell am I saying ! wait,….. I'm not speaking, I am thinking…. Ugh! What the hell am I thinking I mean, uuugh!"He thought scratching his head and resuming his katas "stupid Shampoo always crashing her cycle wheel on my head and clinging to me like I am a candy or somethin' .no wonder I can't think straight ... stupid shampoo hugging me when akane was about to blow her roof..."
BAM!
Stars circled his head as he banged into a wall, suddenly stopping the form he'd been practicing. He shook his head to clear it and tried to figure out how he'd managed to run into the wall unaware.
"Whoa, I'm messed up," he thought. "I guess I feel kinda bad shoutin' at 'Kane. It wasn't her fault that stupid Amazon was glomped all over me. I released all my annoyance on 'Kane."
He punched the air. "I guess I should go apologize to her."
Kicking the air and with a quick jab, he turned and headed toward the house. "Now where was she? Oh right, she's in the furo….so if I apologise to her now , she wont be able to mallet me if I say any thing wrong 'cause she wouldn't be able to come out.. because she would be nak…." ranma blushed at the thought of nude Akane in the furo "wow.I am so smart "
"Well, better now than never." Muttered ranma
Ranma walked towards the koi pond and stopped abruptly "how in the world did I manage to get in such a mess?" he thought "oh yeah" he smacked his palm with his fist "it all began in school this afternoon…
FLASHBACK
Ranma heaved a sigh of relief .FINALLY , it was lunch! Ranma ran his finger's against each other to get rid of the numbness. He had been very very very late for school ,thanks to Ryoga,Ukyo,Kodachi and the usual dose of Shampoo . As for being late he was given bucket duty until lunch .
"ranma! Airen!" shrieked a voluptuous shampoo
"uh oh" Ranma cringed and thought while she glomped on him "she's got some timing"
"h-hey shampoo…"
" Ranma take Shampoo on date? yes?"
"eheheh.."scratching his neck "mmm… what's in that box" sniffing the air around the box he asked Shampoo
"Aiyah! Shampoo forgot! Shampoo make too too good lunch for her Airen! It is mushroom buns!"
"well there are some advantages about shampoo…. Speaking of lunch.. doesn't Akane have her home ec class today? Naah … who the hell cares!" he thought and dug in with gusto
What Ranma failed to notice was the evil glint in shampoo's eyes
...and he also failed to see akane walking towards him ( A/N -a completely natural phenomena)
Ranma stopped for a minute to catch his had breath he had eaten 7 pork buns in 35.1 seconds
"hey shampoo do you have any water?"
"yes yes shampoo got lotsa lotsa water" she said handing ranma the flask .
" thanks! Here, I am done"he replied giving back the flask
"no airen! Take more! " and saying this she shoved a pork bun into his mouth ,which he immediately swallowed .
" oh well ,might as well finish it" he thought will munching the buns
"yes" shampoo thought will an evil smile crept onto her face "ranma all shampoo's! Pervert girl and spatula girl going to cry like baby"
"airen finish everything?" shampoo asked using a disturbingly sweet voice which gave him goose bumps and not the good type
"wait ! Evil alert! Why is shampoo smiling like that? "Ranma thought "Oh no... Don't tell me..." Thought an evidently frightened- of-the -consequences which may occur in the future - ranma .
"h-hey wait a sec . You didn't put something in that bun did ya? "Ranma asked nervously
"aiyah! Ranma too too smart! Shampoo put mushroom again! Effect more more stronger! shampoo and ranma spend more time together!shampoo soo happy!" She said happily
"uh oh .I am stuck in a huge pile of shit! What ta do ?what ta do? " he thought desperately . He looked up and saw akane glaring at him " crap! She musta seen shampoo feed me that bun,too bad ,I don't have time for this! Why does this always happen ta meeee...?!"
shampoo was searching for the pepper sprinkler " now where I keep it?" She mumbled
ranma was still staring at akane and his eyes landed on her hands . They were carrying a plate with lumps of mud?
"Akane - food - yuck -sick- horrible -throw up- saved from future harassment !"ranma's currently under stress and at the moment dysfunctional brain thought "thank you gods for saving me !"
He told a quick silent prayer and sprinted towards akane who was frozen at her spot .
" Ranma , wait! I no find pepper yet! " shampoo yelled while he ignored her and went upto akane.
"H-hey akane."
" Humph" akane said regaining her senses " sorry to intrude,please go back and enjoy your meal " she said bitingly
Ranma looked at the plate in her hand and looked back at her
" well ? " ranma questioned
"well what?" Akane asked confused
"aren't you gonna offer me some of the um... Ah... " he looked around searching , for the right word for the thing which looked like lumps of soil.
" they are cookies you moron ! "
" um .. Riiiiight ..." He said not really believing her and took one of the supposed cookies anyway
"here goes nothing " he thought and bravely bit into the cookie
2 seconds later Ranma is still standing
"uuuh this aint a cookie nu uh it's some kinda goey thingy "ranma thought "uhoh. its coming up"
ranma pushed akane out of the way and threw up in the nearest dust bin
"ranma!"akane yelled as she got up and dusted herself
"wah le hell wash thas! thash wash toshallyy hollebale"(translation : what the hell was that? that was totally horrible) ranma said rubbing his tongue aggresively to remove the taste
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" Akane had no idea what Ranma said but it sure sounded like an insult
"Airen too too right ! even dog no eat Akane food" added shampoo who had mysteriously popped up with the pepper and was nodding her head for emphasis
"shampoo...DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN ,UNDERSTAND!"
"AIYAH! Why airen so mad at poor shampoo ,shampoo do nothing wong(A/N I purposely missed the 'r')
"Shampoo you mind controlled me ... Ok,you almost did" he pointed his thumb at akane " if it weren't for Akane's um...um.. What were those again.?...those cookies I woulda ..."
Ranma shook his head trying to remove all those wrong images from his head and went on to lecture shampoo.
Akane looked at Ranma pain and anguish plainly displayed in those brown eyes
"Ranma you jerk,ingrate ,you ..you ...after all I went through ..you..."
tears welled up in her eyes and she felt her throat looked around and reminded herself this was school
" geez Akane.., get a hold of your self this is school ya know" she thought to herself
just then...
" Ah! Akane Tendo never fear Kuno is here! I will eat these sweet lumps of love" he said glomping onto her"That is if you feed it mouth to mouth " he said wiggling his eyebrows
" why don't you dry up and die !" Akane screamed and kicked him hard "Aaah! if only the pigtailed girl were here to join us in this moment!" kuno said as he flew . Akane turned and looked at Ranma and Shampoo"you too!" And saying this kicked them into the sky too
Akane ignored Ranma for the rest of the day not bothering to. See if he was dead or alive. Ranma on his part was pretty bummed out too.
" who woulda thought she would that trick me like that? Stupid shampoo always doing stupid things like that ...Geez and what the HELL is wrong with Akane ? All I did was tell her the truth ! Ain't she ever heard of honesty is the best policy?"
he looked at the girl walking beside the fence . The thought of her ignoring him irked him for some reason ,so he used the best tactic to get her attention ...insult her.
" Ya know , I wouldn't I wouldn't expect much from a girl like you in cooking and stuff"
" Excuse me?" Akane replied a little too confused
" I mean what could we expect from some one who looks like that? fat and uncute?"
" Well I'm SORRY for being fat and cute But too bad I am not changing for the likes of you! My prince will come one day and he will be any day better than you"
Ranma was pretty angry about the 'better-than-you' phrase "don't wait for prince charming akane" he quoted the charming with his fingers mockingly"you might as well go and search for him. Who knows,the poor idiot must be stuck in a tree or something after seeing your face"
"RANMA,YOU JERK!"
Ranma face-palmed "why do I always do this?"he frowned "why am I the only hunk on this planet with four crazy women engaged to me?"
he stared at watching an ant scurry past his foot "AWW GEEZ,stupid pop!has no other job in the world! he just had to get me engaged to three girls ...not even the normal type!"he grinned sadistically " oh yeah crazy things like this always happens to me"
"I wonder why the house is so quiet"he thought and walked into the kitchen , grumbling something about clay lumps,okonomiyaki ,noodles and brute strength
Ranma and Akane ,I've gone out to buy some vegetables . Nabiki has gone out to meet some of her clients and father and have accompanied Grandfather Happosai to a saki drinking competition. the hot water is ready for your bath. See you soon
-Kasumi
P.S don't wreck the house
"Right. well that takes care of that now to go and apologise while I can still feel my butt. Our young hero moves bravely on his dangerous mission to cool the human volcano which is currently having its bath..."thought Ranma
THE BATH...
"the NERVE of that guy!"Akane seethed while scrubbing her herself with soap "You would think he would be slightly happy with the amount of effort I put but NOOO he just had to go and put his foot in that damned mouth of his!"She poured the water on her head and washed of the soap"well better go out otherwise I'm gonna look like Cologne!"
OUTSIDE THE BATH...
"She is still inside let me go and apologise ...Boy , doesn't she take a long time !" ranma shook his head and got ready to apologise "Ak-Akane I am .."
ZZZIIIIIPP
Ranma stared at Akane in was clad in nothing but a towel while drops of water adorned her body and she smelled like an opulent flower bouquet that captured the essence of moonlit strolls in a lush garden . Ranma snapped out of his daze still gazing at her .
2 seconds later
"GEE! Akane! cover up!"
Akane snapped out of her thoughts and ran back into the bath slamming..er..sliding the door shut
"Ranma , you dumb piece of shit!"she yelled from inside "one , you walked in here . Two, you walked in here!Three, YOU WALKED IN HERE! You pervert ! To actually come here and see me in the nude -"
"woah!woah! hang in there macho chick! who would wanna look at your flat chest ? hell even a tennis court ain't as flat as you" he was just about to continue about her food and how it could even defeat the imperial army when she cut in.
"Ranmaaaa"she said gritting her teeth"why the hell are you here ?"
"gyaa.. oh my god, ohmygod ,she got her battle aura powered up again"ranma thought "yeah um I justed wanted to say that um I am sorry?"
"No"
"what do you mean 'no'? you can't say no to an apology!"
"yes"
"Akane, what the hell does that mean?!" ranma said . He was abso-flippin-lutely confused
"It means I can say no to an apology , you SMART ass " she said while her voice dripped with sarcasm
"FINE , you sexless tomboy . I can't believe I actually came here to apologise !"
Akane opened the door and as usual she kicked him out with a "dry up and die!" punch dialogue
"Oh my!"Kasumi said stepping in with an armful of groceries
"Hey! what gives! the house is still standing!"nabiki said stepping in with her
"I won the bet " Kasumi said gently, but her eyes were brimming with mirth
"Ok! ok! " Nabiki gave her a crisp 100 yen note with quivering hands"farewell my friend"she said speaking to the note with mocking melancholy.
Akane went to her room and looked at her self in the mirror . She ran her hand from her ankle to her shapely thighs. she felt her still developing curves and sighed .
"nope, not curvy at all" shaking her head she put on her clothes and picked up the picture of her mother , tracing her finger along the frame .
"Oh mom, you have no idea how much I miss you.."
knock knock
"Akane?"
"Kasumi?"
Akane opened the and asked her where she had gone
"Ranma didn't tell you about the note?"
"that jerk ! Don't even mention his name !" and she stomped down the stairs to blow of some steam in the dojo
"Oh my!"
'Dinner is ready !"
"COMING"
AT THE TABLE
" Ranma,why isn't the house destroyed yet ?" nabiki asked while taking a bite of her chicken nugget
"that's because ranma ran away before I could kill him..." akane replied before ranma could even open his mouth
Mr. Saotome (panda form) stared at ranma for a second and whipped out his sign
is this true ranma?
" aww shut up pops! stop annoying me and lemme eat !"
real men dont run away ! and with that he started whacking ranma with his sign board while the other hand held a
the food tastes delicious kasumi sign
