DISCLAIM: Ranma 1/2 is not mine
CHAPTER 1: Shampoo's Training
When Akane and Ranma got home from school, they saw their fathers playing "Go" or Japanese Chess (as usual).
While eating dinner, someone was knocking at their door.
Knock knock kcock
"Ranma, you get it." Said Akane
"You get it, I'm still eating." Replied Ranma while chewing his riceballs.
"Don't be stubborn and get it, right NOW! Or else..."
"Or else what huh?"
"Or else I'll -"
"Don't fight, I'll get it" Interrupted Kasumi.
"Thanks sis" said Akane
When Kasumi opened the door, she saw Shampoo all wounded. Her right leg, has been bitten but her leg is still there, bleeding. Her feet with blisters almost wounded too. And her arms, scratched by another animal. And her beautiful hair is really messed up with twigs and leaves.
"Oh my! Shampoo, why won't you come in to rest for the night. You can go to our spare room. Wait, what am I saying? Let's go to a hospital!" said Kasumi
"Please, please no... Let me stay here, it is part of my training." Shampoo replied.
"Okay then, let's talk about this tomorrow. I'll take you now to the spare room. I'll treat you in there."
Then Kasumi helped Shampoo to come in the house and in to the spare room.
"I wonder, what happened to Shampoo?" asked Akane to herself out loud.
"Don't ask me, I don't know what happened to her." Said Ranma while taking Akane's part of the fish.
"I'm not asking YOU! AND GIVE ME BACK MY FISH!"
"Shshsh! I'm sorry, but please don't be noisy, Shampoo is sleeping." Kasumi said while shutting the door of the room.
"I'm sorry, sis. We'll be quiet. RIGHT RANMA?" Akane replied.
"Yeah yeah whatever" Ranma agreed while eating his fish.
--THE NEXT DAY--
"Aaaahh, Saturday. I wonder, what should I do first? Maybe I should check up on Shampoo" Akane said to herself after waking up.
Akane quietly tiptoed and slide open Shampoo's room. When she opened the door, Shampoo's NOT there!
"I think I know where Shampoo is. That snake." Akane said while closing the door.
Akane went quickly to Ranma's room and saw Shampoo with him! Akane quickly grabbed a bucket of a very cold water and splashed Ranma and Shampoo with it.
"WHAT'S THAT FOR! EARLY IN THE MORNING, AND YOU'RE ALREADY MAD LIKE A MONSTER! Look at me, I'm a GIRL!" Ranma shouted.
"HMPH! Look who's beside you. Even she's wounded, she can still do THAT! And you like it THAT WAY! Akane replied while slamming the door.
"Meow, meow, meow" Said Shampoo.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Shouted Ranma
"Sha- Sha- Shampoo, le- let- let us go- go- go get break- break- breakfast and get this over with!" Replied Ranma while running away from Shampoo.
When Ranma and Shampoo got to the table, the breakfast is already served. And everyone is already eating, but Akane is already in a grumpy face while eating her food.
"So, Shampoo, what happened to you last night?" Asked Nabiki to Shampoo while pouring the hot water to her.
"Well, as you can see, I WAS very injured last night. And I'm still weak today" Said Shampoo
"Yeah, right" Akane said sarcastically.
"Well, as I were saying" Shampoo continued "I trained myself to get Ranma's love for me. First, I went to the seas. I swam as fast as I can, and swam as long as I can, while I was chased by sharks. I want to beat the sharks up, but they already bit my leg and I have to get to shore"
"Isn't that impossible?" Genma asked.
"I thought you might say that" Replied Shampoo. "I'm already trained when I was still a child, but that is not enough to have Ranma's love. So I went back to shore in China. Even though I was wounded, I continued my training. I went to the jungle, I tried to beat up a tiger, but I was already weak and the tiger scratched my arm. I'm already wounded and very weak, so I went here instead. I was too weak to go to the hospital Kasumi. That's why I insisted staying here. I trained myself just to have Ranma's love..."
"Well, that was very foolish. Why would you do that for Ranma? Don't bother answering my question." Said Akane.
"Shampoo, why won't you go take a bath before you eat. Don't worry about the food, I can cook another batch of riceballs and maybe a soup. Come with me" Kasumi said.
"Ranma, why won't you take care of Shampoo?" Said Nabiki while pouring the hot water on Ranma's head.
"WHAT?" Protested Ranma, Akane and Suon.
"Nabiki, Ranma is already betrothed to Akane." Suon said.
"NO, I'm NOT!" Akane protested again.
"And why should I do that?" Ranma asked.
"Because, Shampoo trained herself for you." Nabiki replied.
"It's not my fault that she trained for me"
"Oh yes it is. Because of YOU she did that. It is because if YOU Shampoo was wounded. It is YOUUUUU." Nabiki said in an evil look.
"Ranma, please take care of me. Please." Shampoo said after taking her bath.
"Wow, you sure bathe fast. Ehehehe. But I'm sorry Shampoo, I can't take care of you, I uhh I uhh ha- have, have a, project to do, that's right a project! I'm sorry." Ranma said.
"Project? What project? We don't have any project, Ranma. No homeworks too. You are very free this weekend. I'm not because I have a lot of chores to do. Akane quickly said.
"Well, uhhh uhh Ka- Kasumi can take care of you." Ranma said
"No she can't. Kasumi has to buy groceries and medicines for Shampoo. Nabiki can't either because she's busy making money and our dads can't take care of Shampoo because Shampoo might get worse. So you have no choice, Ranma. Akane replied.
"Ranma, please take care of me, take me to my room and take care of me there." Shampoo said.
"I have no choice then, I guess I can take you to your room, but that's all. I'm going to stay outside of the room." Ranma replied.
"No, no, no, no Ranma." Akane said. "You have to STAY THERE if you're going to take care of her. Or you have to clean the whole house. It has to be sparkly clean and-"
"Okay, okay I'll go already sheesh. Come on Shampoo." Ranma interrupted.
'I know I don't want them to stay there alone together, but what can I do?' Akane thought. 'But if I see something suspicious, I'll barge right in!'
