Disclaimer I don't own ranma 1/2
Some things in the following are works in progress and this is a sort on the spot as the original idea was set up later any storyline so this is a prequel in a way so it's rough and in production what's coming next will be a lot more fleshed-out so I apologize but some things will be learned later
Thank you and have a good day dreadharbinger
This was bad, herb had the kettle of liberation Ranma had a large piece of wood in his stomach ryoga and mousse were still locked and with the water no longer flowing through the kettle the enchanted water was rapidly becoming no longer Enchanted pulling out a small glass flask Ranma filled it with water corked it and threw it. It broke on a rock next to mousse and the nearsighted boy turned duck having been splashed and reverted to normal ran off without his glasses crowing about something, Ranma couldn't tell as everything was getting fuzzy refocusing Ranma checked his senses and found that the water was no longer Enchanted, ranma racked his mind for a solution an idea followed by a memory came to the fore reminding Ranma of a way to unlock ryoga, the catch was Ranma would permanently be female but Ranma could not leave ryoga as is. So Ranma got it as much ki as he could preparing to cast a ki spell.
"hey ryoga come here I have an idea" ranma rasped out.
Ryoga waddled over acting angry but ranma could see the fear and concern in the boy turned piglets eyes.
"I can unlock your curse but the water ain't enchanted anymore" .
Shakily ranma placed his hand on ryoga's head.
"Once I'm done I'll probably pass out".
And with that he pushed all the ki he had into ryoga feeling the curse on ryoga deactivate and his now her own activate and lock and with that ranma let the darkness take her.
Ryoga was at a loss as to what to do, here he was looking down at his enemy the guy he swore he would make miserable and then kill and the guy injured and weak still helped him no not help saved.
"Damn you ranma" ryoga cursed as picked her up.
Somehow ryoga managed to get Ranma to a hospital and after explaining the curse and showing it he was told to sit in the Hall 20 minutes later what felt like hours to ryoga a nurse came to him.
" is Ranma okay?" Ryoga asked as stood up.
" she's fine but that curse you told us about for her it's locked we poured some hot water over her but she didn't change" the nurse said.
" damn you Ranma you had to be the hero" ryoga grit his teeth has he said that to himself " will he be all right?" Ryoga asked after a moment of thought.
" she will be all right but I suggest but you get used to calling her by female pronouns we've called her mother but we would like you to explain to her the curse she'll be here soon" the nurse said.
Seconds later the door at the end of the hall first open a woman clad in red kimono carrying a wrapped bundle came walking swiftly in their Direction.
Ryoga could immediately see the family resemblance the red hair though darkened by age was very similar to ranma's in his well her female form the face and the blue eyes definitely were from this woman however the bundle worried him as he got the sense that it was a weapon.
" where is my son" the woman demanded " where is he"
" there's something you need to know out in China there Springs that change when you fall in them it's a sort of temporary permanent thing hot water deactivates it and cold water activates it" and with that said ryoga poured a cup a cold water over himself.
Once returned to Being Human he explained that Ranma was locked in female form for some reason and that his theory was that Ranma had given up his birth form so that ryoga could change back he also explained why they were there in the first place.
