A Weird and Unusual Day
By Gemini Tenshi
I do not own any of the animes I may mention. Though I do own myself and any characters I may add of my own.
Ever wondered what it would be like to fall into your favourite anime. This is going to be an exploration into what it could be like.
= ^.- =
Today was an odd day. I woke up to an alarm clock blaring at 6:30. I never hear it going off. I woke up dressed for school. Put on my work attire. Very formal: A navy blouse and a knee length black skirt. I personally have to dress like this for work. I work in retail at "The Bay" very rigid dress code.
Sorry, I guess I forgot to introduce my self. I'm Kris, to my friends known as the hyperactive and insane gemini who likes to yell things such as "Shinimegami's back from hell and she's loving it" or "____ no Baka". I'm a 16 year old who'd just about done grade 11. I have medium brown hair and blue eyes that like to turn green a lot. Contacts are fun. I'm not the ideal but hey I'm me. My friends say I use the "I'm me" line way too much.
Anyway, as I was saying. I actually had time to walk to the bus stop. No grab the backpack and make a mad dash to the bus stop in heels. That is no fun. I was walking leisurely to the bus stop not paying attention to where I was going only with the final destination of the bus stop when.... my life would change all in one step

Splash!!!
"Crap!!! My skirt and blouse. Where'd my chest go!!!" I yelled in panic as I looked at my water logged outfit for work. Only to hear some guide yelling at me in a language that I couldn't understand. Then it hit me... He started yelling in Japanese and it made sense.... but worst of all I recognized it as the guide that I had seen in my Ranma 1/2 manga at home.
"Mam, bad you fall into spring of drowned boy. You now take body of young boy." The guide told me.
"Kewl! Can I get some hot water or at least a change of clothing? " I asked politely. The guide looked at me like I was insane. I just was so happy that I received this curse. If I were to fall into a spring it'd be this one. It'd give me a whole new view on things.
"You know, hot water turn back!" The guide stammered while handing me an outfit similar to Ranma's except in royal blue and red.
"Of course! Anyone who has seen Ranma knows this." I said knowingly .
"You meet customer who fall in spring of drowned girl." The guide asked.
"You can say that, I guess." I replied unsurely. "Do you know how I can get out of this valley to the nearest airport?" I asked.
"I will show." The guide replied.
From there the guide took me to the airport and I ran into a washroom to change into the new outfit. I had decided that I would be best off in my cursed form because it would be less likely for any one to see the change if I were to be male for the trip. I then went and bought an airline ticket on my AMEX. I was really surprised that it worked I guess the add about them going the extra mile was true. I really had to laugh at the truth behind the add. Once I had received my ticket for my flight to Japan, I went and cleared security and boarded my plane.

Once I arrived in the Tokyo Airport I went and rented a car to take me to the Nerima district of Japan. I was really hoping that I could be alive in the same timeline as Ranma that way I could receive some help from the Amazons. I figured that they would probably be the best people to see about this. With all of the chaos that I had seen up until that day I thought it would be my best plan of action. Either that or I make major yen off Kuno through Nabiki. I could make predictions and hopefully have the right ideas. Maybe renting at Ukyo's would be an option. All this musing occurred on my drive to Nerima. That and how I was going to present myself to the people there. By the time I was done I had decided my best route would be to be a girl just because people like the Amazon's would accept me as long as I didn't threaten their dealings with Ranma. I just had to make sure no Amazon or Kodachi saw my cursed form that I swear looked very similar to Duo Maxwell from Gundam Wing.

As I drove into the city limits I noticed landmarks such as the school and Nekohaten were there so I hoped that I could find Ucchan's diner. First things first I'd visit Nekohaten for some hot water and hopefully find out if it's all the same as what I had read in the Manga.
"Konnichiwa, welcome to the Nekohaten. What can I get for you?" I looked up to see Shampoo ask.
"I'll have anything that isn't spicy. As well as some hot water in a cup to go afterwards." I replied to Shampoo not knowing what to order. Shampoo then went to fill the order. Once she did that she walked back over to my table.
"You are new here. Any reason?" Shampoo inquired.
"None really. I'm trying to sort out a recent event in my life so here I am hoping to solve it here away from home where I can't be influenced." I replied. Shampoo then ran back for my order and grabbed my hot water in cup to go and passed it over, accidentally spilling some onto my now female lap.
"You visit Jusenkyo?" Shampoo asked drawing the attention of the Elder Cologne and of Mousse.
"Yeah, I visited it unintentionally. I sorta got zapped from my home and ended up free falling into the spring of drowned boy. I am actually very glad it wasn't the spring of drowned piglet or duck. I personally would prefer staying human." I said unconsciously.
"Where are you from?" Cologne inquired.
"I'm from Canada. Specifically Alberta. I should probably introduce myself now anyway, My name is Kris." I said introducing myself. Cologne then introduced the three of them and extended an invite for me to stay there.
= ^.- =
Thus my stay had started at the Nekohaten and my life's beginning of chaos had just begun. I sat there that evening lying down trying to figure out what I should do and if I should start talking to Cologne now and get help today our go along with the roller coaster that was Nerima and wait. I decided that I'd wait until the next day to learn more about what was going on in the time line yet because I might be able to aid others and that might be the whole reason behind my being sent there. It also wouldn't be so bad to ask to be trained in the art while I was there as well. I was given a fresh start and I was going to take it
= ^.- =
The next day I was walking to school with Shampoo. Mousse was lost talking to a light post from what I understood. Personally I felt sorry for him but I didn't want to be mistaken for Shampoo so I just kept walking with her. Shampoo accompanied me to the office to register. Cologne had decided that we should both attend in the same class. She wanted to further Shampoo's knowledge of the outside world and me I was tagging along so I didn't get in trouble when I'd hopefully get home. Shampoo and I ended up in a different class than everyone else... we were stuck in a Japanese as a second language class. Me because I spoke a lot of English without thinking.
I hated the class I was in. No challenge at all when I got zapped in to this universe I was given a knowledge of Japanese, I just chose to speak English out of habit. In the middle of class I got so bored I had decided to see how much the teacher knew of English. Best put the teacher learnt new words she didn't even know existed in the English language. The word I think the phrase she didn't like the most was that she should send her mother ****** *** to *** **** **** with her **** ******* preppie attitude and I think the worst was the whole attitude behind my words. I ended up in the hallway with bucket because she didn't have the time to wash out my mouth.
= ^.- =
While in the hallway I finally got to meet up with Ranma. I was sorta trying to get kicked out for that reason alone. The teacher just can't kick you out for no reason so I decided I'd do something I'd never even consider doing. Not to mention it'd draw Nabiki's attentions. It was the perfect plan to get me home. With all the magical chaos that surrounded Ranma a magical artifact that could take me home should eventually show up.
"Hi, I'm Kris." I said introducing myself.
"Ranma Saotome of the Saotome School of Anything goes Martial Arts. Nice to meetcha." Ranma said.

Please read and review. I know I need to finish up the next chapter of Immortality beyond time. I just haven't had the time. Tonight this was pure inspiration from a thought train. Hopefully I get enough reviews to continue otherwise I'm going to just drop this story. Though personally I think it's fun to do these self inserts cause you can do anything you dream up. I think I'm going to blow up Furiken possibly, that would be fun.
Ja ne,
Gemini
Please review..... I really would like some.
