Akane's Grief
Nerima, Japan 7AM
Morning rays of light filled the Tendo residence as Ranma Saotome awoke from a very pleasant sleep. He yawned and slowly sat up to view a beautiful sunrise over the rooftops. Birds were chirping and all seemed peaceful with the world around Ranma. He turned to his left to find his father, Genma, still sleeping soundly. The giant panda tossed and turned as it was probably very difficult to find a comfortable position while under a large coat of fur. Ranma ignored this and stood up to walk towards the window. He smiled as he saw trees sway in the wind and clouds pass overhead. "Today is going to be a good day, I know it!" Ranma assured himself.
7:23AM "Ohayo everyone!" Ranma exclaimed as he walked into the dining room. "Ohayo Ranma-kun." said Kasumi with a sweet smile. "You seem unusually cheerful this morning." Nabiki said with a sly look. Akane, meanwhile, said nothing. "Well it's such a beautiful morning I can't help but be cheerful! I feel great!" Ranma said with a broad grin. "Ranma-kun, does this mean that you have agreed to marry Akane!?" Soun said eagerly. "Uh, well I uh.." Ranma said nervously. Akane suddenly stood up and walked out of the room without a word. Everyone just stared in disbelief. "Akane.?" said Soun. "Wasn't she supposed to hit Ranma and yell something about him being a jerk?" Nabiki inquired lazily.
7:45 AM Ranma walked down the hallway with his hands folded behind his head. 'Something must be wrong with Akane this morning' Ranma thought to himself. He stopped at Akane's room and put his ear against the door. He heard a muffled sound coming from inside. He opened the door to find Akane buried in her pillow crying. "H-hey, what's going on with you?" Ranma said. "I..I just want to be alone for a while." Akane said slowly. "Well, did something happen?" Ranma said. "Just go away..I want to be alone." Akane said. Not wanting to push her to violence, Ranma stepped out of the room.
8:27AM Ranma walked along on the fence bordering the river as he headed for school. Deep in thought, he looked down at his feet as he went. 'Akane just isn't herself today. What is up with her?' He thought 'I haven't done anything to her at all..'
"RANMA!! PREPARE TO DIE!!!!"
"Oh man, now I'm going to be late." Ranma sighed. Ryoga was rushing toward Ranma with his bamboo umbrella drawn. He ran up to Ranma and swung only to hit air as his opponent leaped up and fell behind him. "So Ryoga, what is it this time?" "You have done something to upset Akane-san!" "What makes you think that?" "Akane-san was very disturbed last night and this morning, and it must be something you've done Ranma Saotome!" "I have no idea what's wrong with Akane." "Curse you Ranma! You with pay for what you have done!" Ryoga ran forward and threw several punches at Ranma, all of which were quickly dodged. Ranma then retaliated with a swift forward punch that sent Ryoga flying backwards. Ryoga quickly got up, picked up a nearby mailbox and chucked it at Ranma. With a quick roundhouse kick Ranma hit the mailbox to the side of a building where it instantly exploded. A flurry of envelops floated to the ground as Ranma continued to dodge Ryoga's attempts. With great speed, both of the combatants jumped up to a rooftop and continued the fight. Ryoga then stabbed at Ranma with his umbrella. With each strike, Ryoga let out a great cry of anger. 'Ryoga's acting as though his life depends on this battle..just what happened to her anyway?' Distracted by his own thoughts, Ranma was knocked back by the umbrella. "Your acts will be punished! Hah!" Ryoga yelled as he leapt toward Ranma. Ranma rolled to the side and avoided his attack. Using all his force he kicked Ryoga straight into the river below. P-chan had soon emerged from the cold water sputtering and oinking as he struggled to stay afloat. "Baka." said Ranma. He then continued on to school.
9:15AM Furinkan High school stood gallantly in front of Ranma as he headed inside. 'Damn I am so late today.' Ranma thought. He found his classroom and slowly slipped inside. "Ranma Saotome you are late!" his teacher shouted. "I am very sorry sensei." Ranma said with a deep bow. "Just take your seat." The teacher said not looking at him. Ranma did as he was told. As he sat down he looked toward Akane's seat. She sat there but did not look back. Her expression was very depressing. Her eyes glittered as though she could cry at any moment. "Ran-chan?" said a voice behind him. "Ohayo Uc-chan." Ranma said with a low tone as he turned around. "Did something happen with you and Akane today? She has been very cold to everyone who's tried to approach her." Ukyo said. "I really don't know. She's been this way since this morning. She even left without me for school this morning." said Ranma. "Hmm this may be serious. Stop by the restaurant today at lunch ok?" asked Ukyo. "Sure." said Ranma flatly. 'She's right, this could be serious, and I'm going to get to the bottom of this!' Ranma thought determinedly.
