Broken Hearts…Goddess warmth

Chapter 1: Tears

"I hate you" Akane Tendou said to Ranma Saotome, heir of the school of indiscriminate grappling and future husband…our would be, if not for a little problem

Ranma Saotome, he is cursed you see, his curse thought really funny to us is really something bad for him… he turns into a girl.

His father since youth had told him time and time that girls are weak… Saotome fells like he is loossing his manhood every time he changes

He was finally broken… he fell to his knees and cried… cried and cried in pain, anger and frustration.

Pain due to his emotional distress… trained in the neko-ken can due that… he is now terrified of cats… anger because he can never know peace and he could never live a normal life, and frustration because the woman he loves never listens to him… blames him for all the problems… and always jump on conclutions…

He had have enough of all of this, he neaded to cry… for the first time… just let the tears roll. For the first time in 15 years he cried…

Ranma turned around and ran. He felt what was left of his heart break. For the first time in 10 years, Ranma cried.

He felt all of the pain that he had been hiding for these last couple years well up.

The tears came faster and faster. He finally stopped running and fell to his knees weeping.

He barely noticed the kindly presence that appeared behind him. He did notice the soft hand that touched his shoulder. Without knowing why, he spun around and hugged the person crying into her shoulder. He knew she was a girl because of her aura, but he did not notice that this one's aura was even more powerful then Saffron's.

A kindly voice asked, "now, now, child, what could have happened to make you cry with such abandonment?"

Ranma wimpered and choked out, "she hates me. The woman I love hates me." He, then, passed out from all of the emotional battering.

The woman, one first-class goddess named Belldandy, picked up Ranma and teleported, since there were no mirrors around to walk through, back to the temple she lived in.

She promptly took Ranma to the nearest bedroom which happened to be hers. After making him comfortable, she picked up the phone and called her father, Kami-sama.

After a few rings, a voice answered, "Kami-sama's office, how can I help you?"

Belldandy, "may I speak to my father, please?"

"Certainly, I'll patch you through right now, Belldandy."

A few seconds later, a new voice asked, "what can I do for you, daughter?"

"Father, I just ran across Toltilir's favorite mortal, Ranma Saotome. He was crying in the middle of the street and he said something about the woman he loves hates him."

"Oh, dear. This is not good. Give me a minute and I will check out what happened."

A few minutes later, Kami-sama returned and said, "well, if I wasn't a benevolent god I would strike Akane Tendo dead. She has, thoroughly, ripped apart Ranma's heart and stomped on it. Almost literally I might add"

"Oh, my."

Belldandy then heard a loud groan coming from where she had put Ranma. She said, "Father, I have to go. Ranma is waking up."

"OK, but be careful. He is in a very delicate state of mind. Also, he may have a wish."

"But father, isn't that against the rules?" asked Belldandy

"Don't worry about it. His wish was coming up soon anyway.A guy like him is most deserving… he has never done wrong… he had tried to live an upright life even with the person as a father a complete immoral and degenerate. Now, I believe you have a wish to grant."

"Right, talk to you later father." Belldandy then hung up the phone and went to check on her "patient".

Belldandy walked in to find Ranma sitting up, checking out the room, and wiping his eyes to clear them. When Ranma saw Belldandy enter the room he quickly jumped off the bed. A panicked look crossed his face and he immediately asked, "you're not another fiance, are you?"

Belldandy startled replied, "heavens no, I'm just a person who likes to help. Besides… there is a person I love dearly" she said

Ranma sighed and stated with a bitter voice, "sorry, but you can never be too careful I got more than a handful of girls after me."

Belldandy shook her head and wondered what could make a boy so young so angry. She could always check it out, but she felt that would be an invasion of privacy. She looked at Ranma with a bit of curiosity

She glided forward saying, "My name is Morisato Belldandy. May I inquire as to what yours is?" Belldandy already knew the answer, but she didn't want to freak Ranma anymore than he already was

"Huh, what did you just say? What does the word inquire mean?" Ranma asked a tad confused.

Belldandy shook her head and replied, "I asked what your name is. The word inquire is another word for ask."

"Oh, my name is Ranma Saotome and I'm not very good with big words."

"Why aren't you? You don't seem like a dumb person," Belldandy said. She didn't know the answer to this question, because she had never been able to get through his life story. Ranma replied in a morose tone, "I'm not, but I don't take much interest in school not that I have the time."

"Why wouldn't you have the time?" Belldandy asked in a confused tone.

"With all of my enemies and so-called fiances I don't have the time to concentrate on school work. I have to be on guard at all times."

Belldandy set down on the bed and patted it saying, "why don't you sit down and tell me all about it." Ranma, unknowingly, had already labeled Belldandy as a non threat despite what his danger sense was telling him. Belldandy was now up there with Kasumi meaning that he would now do anything for her. So he sat down and told her everything. He told her about the training trip, the Neko-ken, Jusenkyo, the fiance Brigade, and the enemies that came with it. Needless to say, Belldandy was thinking some very unkind thoughts about one Genma Saotome after Ranma was done.

"Well, Ranma, you have led an interesting life to say the least and I'm afraid it's about to get stranger."

"How's that, Belldandy?"

"You see Ranma I'm a goddess."

Ranma blinked and then said, "that would explain why your Aura is so big."

Belldandy, not expecting a mortal to be able to see Aura's even if he was a martial artist, said surprised, "how can you see them?"

Ranma just shrugged and stated, "After being attacked every day for a year by martial artists that can control Ki you develop the ability. Fighting a God and beating might also contributed as well"

At that moment, as usual considering this is a Ranma universe, Ryoga busted in.

"Ranma Saotome prepare to die" Ryuoga said as he busted in

"Now now… no roughhousing on this temple dear" said a female voice from behind Ryuoga

A Thunder then fell down but Ryuoga managed to barely dodge it… only to be struck with a big hammer

"wow talk about poetic irony" Ranma said being glad not to be on the other end of the hammer

"hey there Bells" Said a woman with a big bust and tan

"Hello there big sister… we are back" said the smaller of the two… the youngest

"Hey there Belldandy" said a young man… 4 years older than Ranma

Belldandy jumped out of the bed she was sitting and greeted him warmly… Ranma felt a pang of pain and a bit of jelousy… but he felt so much warmth in the air…

"Anyone care to fill me in?" the person asked

"Ah… Keiichi this person here is Ranma Saotome… I brought him here so he could rest from his weary life.

"Do tell…" Keiichi said

A small talk and re-cap later…

"Damn… you have that thing for a father? Give me a minute and I will call my mother… she would LOVE to meet him" She said while giving some electric sparks off

"I would definetly like to introduce Akane to my giganto-hammer deluxe-kun" Skuld said swinging her hammer around

"by the way… what happened to the boy you struck Skuld?" Keiichi said

"I moved him… he is only a few feet" Skuld said

"Eh? But isn't that…" Keiichi said

"no worries… there is a reason he is called the eternally lost boy" Ranma said

Out side

"Where are you damn you!!?" Ryuoga said as he searched for the house (that was 30 feet behind him)

Back to Ranma and company

"So you mean to tell me… you got 4 girls officially chasing after you… and 1 guy who is after you in your female form… the girl you love doesn't love you but rather keeps seeing you on the bad side never wanting to do a thing about you or even listen to you… and you can't get out since 2 of them you are officially engaged… even thought your father really stole the dowry from her… and the other one will not let go nor her great grandmother due to a Chinese Amazon law" Keiichi sumarised what he was told

"Have you ever just walked out and never came back? You could still live with us" Keiichi offered

" I can't… if I stay here… they will find me… they always do… and I will bring trouble… you are kind people… I can't bring my troubles to you all" Ranma said

"Nonesence… we got 3 goddesses… 1 unlimited of them is a class 1, the other two is a goddess 2 limited, besides fort nox… this is the safest place in the world right now… so please.. stay with us" Keiichi said extending his hand out to Ranma

"Thank you… I mean it" he said shaking hands with Keiichi
