Chapter 1: Here's Ranma!
Ranma? This… is… NERMIA!
It was a dark and stormy night, rain was coming down like… well… rain. The streets were wet, and the dirt was muddy. The few people who were still out in the rain had umbrellas, and even those were failing. Puddles were as big as swimming pools, and swimming pools were as full as baths. If one was to be singing, it would have to be in the rain. Even under the best circumstances, giant umbrella, waterproof boots, and a jacket as thick as hide, you will get wet. It was just one of those nights.
Yet, despite this, there was work to be done and those who stayed out there did their jobs. It was all quiet… just perfectly quiet. No more, no less. At least it was, until now. Running down one street like there was something chasing her, a young girl with amazingly red hair dashed on. Following very closely to this girl, was a brown dog, not just any brown dog though. This dog was big. If the dog stood up on its hind legs, it would be taller than the girl. Normally this would be only a bit unusual, some people ran in rain, and that girl was really short. However, it wasn't over. Following the girl and the dog was none other than a panda. A really big giant panda running after the two on its hind legs… running… like a man. Even this wouldn't be too unusual, some people trained pandas to do some crazy things, why not be able to run? It only got worse…
The panda was obviously trained, not only did it run after the girl, it was attacking her in martial arts. The hits missed, but it did make the girl jump over backwards and turn so that she faced the panda. The dog growled at the panda and barked a few times.
"You said it, there is no way I am doing that!" the young redhead told the panda
The panda 'responded' by lashing out more attacks on the young girl, who dodged a few then hit the panda back, knocking it over. The dog barked then bit the panda while it was on the ground.
"No, I wouldn't eat that. It tastes terrible." The young girl said to the dog.
The girl and the dog took a few steps when the girl was hit from behind by the panda that just got back up. Because of the rain, the girl slid across the street a good 20 meters before stopping. The two then faced each other, making the people standing around react.
"It's a panda!" said one
"Oh look, she has a cute dog! Why is it wearing a backpack?" said another.
"What's the number for animal control!" cried out someone.
The girl then spoke…
"Alright, your move!"
The panda attacked the girl, but she was to fast for it and flipped it over, smashing the panda into a wall.
"I can't believe you did that without even asking me!" the girl told the panda, "I'm going back to China, so you can suck on that!"
The dog barked a bit and growled before following the girl. After they have gone a few meters, the dog barked again at the girl.
"Hey, I didn't know either! I just hope she's not still following us." The girl replied to the dog and shivered.
During the shivering, the panda sneaked up and smacked the girl in the back of the head with a street sign, knocking her out. The panda lifted the girl up and carried her off, with a barking dog at its heels…
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Early the next morning, in some part of Nerima, Tokyo, a man with a black moustache read a postcard with a panda on it. Turning it over, and over, the man was crying sitting crossed leg at a table.
"Finally…" the man said mostly to himself, "Ranma is coming. Oh, have I waited for this day."
The man cried some more, (Get used to it) and after a while got up. He had some very good news to share with his daughters.
"Kasumi, Nabiki, Akane!" the man cried out.
Kasumi and Nabiki were found and told of the news, however he couldn't find Akane.
"Where is that girl?"
In the dojo that was connected to the house, a young girl with long blue hair; (yes it's blue! You gotta have blue hair! Really!) and in a gi, was kneeling next to 2 cinderblocks stacked on top of each other. After a few moments of silence the girl did a stereotypical 'eeya!' and smashed the 2 blocks with her hand.
"Whew! That felt pretty good" the blue haired girl said to herself
A flash happened at that moment and standing at the doorway was Nabiki with a camera in her hand.
"No wonder all the boys think you're weird Akane" Nabiki told her sister.
The girl (who is Akane) replied "Why should I care what boys think, Nabiki? Everyone thinks the whole world revolves around…BOYS!" That last part came out angrily while also turning away.
"Then this wouldn't interest you…"
Later the 3 girls were sitting at the table across from their father, who was now getting a bit nervous.
"Fiancé?" Kasumi asked in a very sweet voice.
After some explaining, three different reactions occurred; Kasumi, who was the oldest wanted to know how old Ranma was since young men are so… young, Nabiki was optimistic yet wanting to know how he looked like, and Akane didn't want any part of it, but wanted to know what kind of guy he was like. When their father said he never met Ranma, things started to go wrong. Who knew that meeting the person that one of them was going to marry was so important? Fortunately, there was someone at the door to distract everyone.
"Sounds like we have visitors," Kasumi stated
"Ooh! It must be Ranma!" Nabiki said happily as she dashed to the door.
Nabiki was followed by her father while Kasumi got up and watched them leave Akane was right behind her.
"I hope that he's older than me." Kasumi stated to herself.
Time for weirdness to come! Yay! Weirdness!
As soon as Kasumi saw them leave, they came back running, followed by a panda carrying a redhead.
"Come on Pop! You're scaring them spit less!" the redhead stated while simultaneously hitting the panda.
There was a dog carrying a backpack that followed soon after and scratched at the panda, growling.
"So father, this is your friend?" Kasumi asked politely.
Her father shook his head.
"Oh, so this panda decided to drop in, that's it?" Nabiki questioned sarcastically.
He shook his head even more.
The Panda then put down the redhead, and the dog came up which was seen by Akane.
"You wouldn't be…" the father asked
"I'm Ranma Saotome…sorry about this."
"Wow, he is cute," Nabiki stated
The Mustached man hugged Ranma, glad that he has come and all the - wait. He let go of Ranma, feeling something odd.
Nabiki stepped forward, knelt down and poked Ranma in the chest, then feeling it more.
"Uh, would you stop that" Ranma said too late as the dog barked at Nabiki, pushing her away from Ranma and growling, causing Nabiki to step back a bit locking eyes with the dog.
"Daddy, Ranma's a girl!" Nabiki pointed out.
The mustached man fainted on the spot.
"Look! A cute dog!" Akane stated and kneeled down looking at the dog. The dog looked at Akane and put its head to her hand…
After a while, the man woke up on the floor with a blanket and a pillow over him as everyone surrounded him.
"Father's so disappointed" Kasumi said obviously
"He's disappointed! Some kind of fiancé this is!" Nabiki rebuked.
"Oh look he's coming to" Kasumi noticed.
"This is all your fault!" Nabiki told her father to his face. "You should have made sure he was a boy!"
"I was told Genma had a son," he replied
"Does this look like a boy to you?" Nabiki asked, molesting Ranma's breast once again.
This caused the dog to jump Nabiki, knocking her over, and stared into her eyes and growling.
"Hey, get your dog off of me!" Nabiki panicked.
"It's your fault," Akane replied. "You were molesting him, err her. She is our guest."
"Please get off of her." Ranma told the dog. "We have enough problems."
The dog growled a bit then got off, looking at Nabiki angrily.
"She just doesn't like it when you touch me there. She's a bit protective of me" Ranma informed.
The dog just nodded and looked back at Nabiki, eyes narrowing.
"Would your dog mind if we practiced?" Akane asked Ranma "I'm Akane, wanna be friends?"
Ranma blinked at this and looked at the dog. The dog looked back and smiled as best a dog could then wagged its tail.
Ranma just nodded…
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Later in the dojo, Ranma stood opposite of Akane with the dog in the corner watching.
"Why does she wear a backpack anyway?" Akane asked Ranma
"Um…uh…err…" Ranma didn't know what to say.
"It doesn't matter, it's just… different. You studied kempo right?"
"A little…"
The dog barked some and wagged her tail a bit. Ranma nodded at her then looked at Akane, who just smiled.
"Come on, just for fun!" Akane said "Don't worry, I won't hurt you."
Ranma just nodded as she stood in a loose stance. Akane started the fight, as she punched forward in which Ranma jumped over easily. Akane then kicked and Ranma dodged to the right, punch, dodge to the left, punch, dodge, kick, dodge. Anything that Akane tried to throw at Ranma, the redhead just dodged casually with her arms behind her back the whole time.
"Come on attack me!" Akane shouted as she threw more punches at Ranma.
This was bugging Akane who was starting to think Ranma might be reading her moves. Gathering all her strength, Akane yelled out and punched her best… right into a wall. The punch shattered the wooden wall. Ranma was in the air, jumping, when Akane punched, landing behind Akane and tapped her on the back of the head with one finger. This caused Akane to turn around, looking right at Ranma with her hand still in the wall.
A few seconds went by before both broke out laughing. After a minute, they relaxed and got themselves under control.
"You're really good. I'm glad that you're a girl." Akane stated.
Ranma gulped and turned to the dog, who barked a few times with a growl and a whimper.
"What do you mean by that?" Ranma asked Akane a bit nervously
"I just wouldn't want to lose to a boy" Akane answered with a shiver
"But I am a boy!"
Akane giggled a bit and left the dojo saying, "Some call me a tomboy too, but I'm glad you ended up being a girl."
"That's not what I…" Ranma started to say but Akane was out of the dojo already.
Sighing, Ranma went inside the house with the big brown dog following her.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Kasumi showed Ranma her room and offered her to take a bath. Ranma was trying to argue that she didn't need one but lost, you can't argue with Kasumi anyway. So a quick grab of clothes Ranma went to take a bath.
In the living room, there was a bald man with glasses across the table from the father of the 3 girls. Nabiki, seeing this asked Kasumi who the man was. Kasumi said she didn't know and told Nabiki to tell Akane that her bath was ready.
Later, Akane came into the bathroom outer to be surprised on seeing Ranma's dog there. The dog noticed Akane too and barked 3 short barks.
'Maybe we can take a bath together' Akane thought while taking off her clothes.
There was noise coming from the inner bath and the sound of water running.
"A-Akane?" Ranma asked through the door that separated the inner bath and the outer bath "is that you?"
"Yes Ranma, I saw your dog here, and thought we might take a bath together." Akane stated.
Ranma gulped and started to freak out internally.
"That's not a good idea." Ranma said
Akane crooked an eyebrow at this.
"Are you afraid to bathe with other people?" Akane asked
"No! I mean yes! That's it, I'm uh… body cautious, yeah." Ranma said inconvincibly
Before Ranma could mess up, the dog opened the door to mouthed Ranma's clothes to her. In which she quickly got dressed and walked out of the bathroom covering her eyes.
"I didn't see anything!" Ranma said walking out the bath quickly covering her eyes.
Akane just stared for a few minutes then shook herself out of Ranma's weird behavior, it was just them girls anyway, maybe spending all that time on the road with a panda and a dog messes up with your conformity with people. Outside the bathroom Ranma slid down on the door giving a sigh of relief. Akane eyed the dog as it looked at the door ready to pounce.
"Were you protecting Ranma?" Akane asked
The dog just nodded.
"You're very protective, aren't you?"
The dog nodded again.
"Are you doing the same for me?"
The dog nodded.
"Uh, thanks" Akane said petting the dog who wagged its tail.
Sometime later, Akane was done with her bath and got dressed and saw that the dog was still there looking at the door. Akane shrugged and left the bathroom.
After Akane left, Ranma came in again and sat down next to the dog.
"Pop talked to him, the secret is out, be stupid to keep going like this." Ranma told the dog as she splashed hot water onto herself.
The dog just barked
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Later, a bald man, a young boy with black hair, and the dog from earlier were sitting in front of everyone else in the house.
"Let's go over this once again" the father, Soun Tendo said.
The bald man started "I'm Genma Saotome, and this is my son…"
"Ranma" Ranma answered
"So you are the girl from earlier." Kasumi chimed in
"Wait, how, what?" was all Akane said
"Please explain" Nabiki asked with a bored 'oh come on really?' tone
"Hmmm… how do I begin, let's start with this!" Genma said while picking up Ranma and throwing him into the koi pond
Ranma came up from the pond, uh, different. Instead of a black haired boy, there was the same redhead busty girl from earlier.
"WHAT YOU DO THAT FOR?" Ranma said his…err her body dripping wet.
"Whaaa" Genma cried "my son, my only son, what did I do to deserve this?"
"Oh my, Ranma's a girl now." Kasumi stated like she always does
"It pains me to see my son this way, I'm so ashamed." Genma cried.
Genma was then kicked in the back by Ranma, who came back up from the pond, making him fall right into it.
"Who are you to talk? My old man's a panda!" Ranma shouted at Genma who was now a giant Panda
"Father, you certainly have some unusual friends." Kasumi told her father
"They weren't always like this." He answered. "Something happened in their trip in China that did this to them."
While they were all watching Ranma and Genma fight in the pond, a dog was in the kitchen heating water in a kettle. A few moments later and a few fights Ranma and Genma sat back down. The dog brought the kettle with hot water and poured it on Ranma.
"Thanks" Ranma told the dog. "When…?"
The dog barked some
"Ah," a now male Ranma answered, "hope Pop gets it right."
"Please, Saotome, what happened in China that did this to you?" Tendo asked
"It all started 3 months ago when we swam to China…" Genma started [yay flashback!]
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
(Genma narrating) …we came to China to find a cursed training ground that legends told created the greatest martial artists. After a month of searching, we found it in the mountains.
"Welcome sirs to the cursed springs of Jusenkyo" the Chinese guide announced to Ranma and Genma.
They were in a valley with hundreds of springs and bamboo was in between all of them.
"This is the place? It's not as dangerous as you said," Ranma told his father.
"Ooh sirs this place has over 100 springs, each with their own tragic stories.." the guide went on. However Ranma and Genma weren't listening as they jumped onto the bamboo poles. "Wait sirs! It's very bad if you fall in spring!"
The two didn't listen and fought on the bamboo. Ranma winning in midair, sending Genma into a spring turning him into a Panda. The Panda responded by knocking Ranma into another spring which turned him into a girl.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
"Pop, that's not how it happened."Ranma interrupted his father.
"Well, it's good enough for now besides that other part wouldn't make sense." Genma responded.
"Wait, so what really happened?" Akane asked
"That's not important right now, what is important is that they are who I said they were…"Tendo started to speak but was interrupted by Ranma and Genma fighting each other. Some words that were heard was 'idiot' 'panda for a father' and 'what about U-'.
After some splashes and screams, they were able to get through to them. Tendo poured hot water on Genma, turning him back and tried to pour some on Ranma, who dodged it because it was boiling.
"So cold water turns you into a girl and hot water turns you back, your problem's not so bad after all." Tendo said "Here are my 3 daughters, Kasumi she's 19, Nabiki she's 17, Akane 16. Choose whatever one you like and she will be your wife."
"Oh, he wants Akane" Kasumi answered
"Definitely, he wants Akane." Nabiki added "She is his age and she is the only martial artist anyway."
"Wait! Why me?" Akane asked
"Well you hate boys.." Nabiki said "and you're in luck cause he's half girl!"
"No, no no noo no no….. no." Ranma said "this is defiantly no time for fiancées"
The dog was barking like mad and jumped Tendo and growled right in his face causing him to fall over. She growled and had angry eyes.
"Ranma!"Tendo screamed "Get your dog off of me!" as he freaked out.
"No, I agree with her, this is stupid, I'm not marrying anyone!" Ranma responded.
The dog did get off though, and went into the kitchen barking angrily.
"Ranma my boy," a now human Genma said "you must marry a Tendo."
"I am not marrying that… him!" Akane yelled
"Same here I'm not marrying…" Ranma started but stopped, looking at the new thing in the room.
What was new in the room was a 16 year old girl with a chef uniform, a giant spatula on her back, a bandolier of spatulas across her chest. She was dressed in blue with long brown hair and a blue bow in her hair. And she was pissed.
"…Ucchan, let's get out of here. Maybe we can find a cure in China." Ranma continued.
"Ucchan?" Akane asked "Ranma you know this girl?"
"I am Ukyo and I have had it with you trying to marry off Ran-chan!" Ukyo said looking at Genma. "And of course you didn't say anything about me right POPS!"
(If you have dramatic music preferably those of prairie dog usage, play now)
"WHAT?" was the collective response of most (except for you know)
"It looks like we have another guest" Kasumi pointed out happily
"Saotome! Who is she? And what did she mean by that?" an angry Tendo asked angrily with a side of steam.
"Its not what it looks like Tendo" Genma responded "everyone, meet Ukyo, my adopted daughter"
"Hmm… where'd that dog go?" Akane asked "it was cute in standing up to Dad"
Ukyo blushed then composed herself and got up to Soun Tendo
"I didn't travel 10 years with Ran-chan to just stand by and see a stupid panda marry him off forcefully." Ukyo said coldly poking Tendo right in his chest.
"Girl, it's a matter of family honor, before Ranma was born… Tendo and I agreed that our children would marry."Genma stated
Ukyo had enough; pulling the spatula off her back she knocked Genma into the koi pond turning him into a panda.
"I don't need to listen to a Panda!" Ukyo yelled "come on Ran-chan, let's go, I'm sure she stopped chasing you anyway"
She was stopped though as she was splashed by a Panda whose name was Genma. This turned Ukyo into the dog that came into that house earlier. The shirt was still on, so was the blue bow in her hair that dropped down going around her neck looking like a bow collar, the bandolier of spatulas stayed on yet the pants and panties were falling off. Angry and revengeful, Ukyo fought with GenmaPanda and Ranma got into the new favorite game, beat up the Panda.
"What a weird family, I think I'll call the circus" Nabiki said money dancing in her eyes.
"Oh my, I don't think we have dog food." Kasumi said cheerfully disappointed (how do you describe Kasumi's attitude?)
Akane was in shock, the dog that Ranma brought in was his sister! No wonder she was so protective of Ranma. Then it dawned on her, she remembered calling the dog cute… twice! She hoped Nabiki didn't notice, she had enough lesbian rumors going around at school. (that didn't stop them... but, oh never mind)
However watching a dog and a girl team up on a panda made her feel left out, making her angry that they fight without her. So picking up the table she planned on ending it so that they could continue on why she won't marry Ranma. Unfortunately, the table hit Ranma instead of the Panda of a father knocking a redhead out cold.
"Whoops… sorry sorrysorry!" Akane apologized "I meant to hit your father!"
"Sis, I don't think she had it coming" Nabiki scolded "although, it seems right for some reason."
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
The fighting ended and everyone was human again. Kasumi, Nabiki, Akane and Ukyo were around Ranma who was still female and still out.
"Ukyo, you have to forgive Akane, she's a sweet girl, just a violent maniac" Kasumi explained with a smile
"Yeah like that makes sense" Nabiki added sarcastically
"I didn't mean to, I just wanted the fight to be over" Akane pleaded
"Don't worry too much; he's taken harder hits then that." Ukyo said reassuringly
"Sis listen to the cute one, she knows Ranma better than anyone." Nabiki said evilly
"I didn't, I mean, she wasn't, err… she was a dog!" Akane defended
"So, am I cute or not Akane?" Ukyo teased
"I'm not a lesbian!"Akane shouted
"That's not what the school says" Nabiki reminded
Ranma woke up now dazed and confused.
"What hit me" Ranma started "It felt like a table"
"Ran-chan, it was a table"
"Sorry… I don't miss like that often." Akane said sadly
Ranma sat up head still hurting but not too bad. Kasumi had a kettle waiting for him… her… him… uh…Ranma. (Curse you pronouns!) After a quick douse, everyone was 'normal' again. Nabiki left to her room and Kasumi left for the kitchen leaving the 3 sixteen year olds together.
"You feeling better Ran-chan?" Ukyo asked
"Yes, no thanks to a stupid tomboy" Ranma answered
This caused Akane to get angry again and was thinking of smacking some sense into him.
"What did you call me?" An angry Akane asked
"Akane! Relax, its… uh..err a compliment..yeah." Ukyo intervened
Akane wasn't convinced of course. No one insulted her and got away with it. Sure Ranma dodged all her attacks while sparring, but she hit him once with a table she can do it again.
"Uh, Ran-chan, maybe you should watch your mouth more often." Ukyo warned him.
Akane miraculously controlled her anger and instead grumbled some and eyes glowed.
"What happened then, how did you turn into a dog?" Akane asked still a bit angry "That wasn't in the story."
"Well Pop's not a reliable narrator" Ranma answered "although that is probably what would have happened if Ukyo wasn't with us. You tell it Ucchan."
"Its fair I guess" Ukyo started "the 3 of us did arrive at Jusenkyo not that long ago and there was a guide who did warn us. The other things were different though." (Flashback!)
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
(Ukyo narrating) the 3 of us arrived at Jusenkyo not long ago and we came there to train. All of us jumped up onto the bamboo poles to fight. Stupid Panda (although not yet) thought he was good enough to take on both of us at the same time. We fought and I used my spatula to hit him a few times. Ranma did end up getting the final blow that sent him into the spring of Drowned Panda.
"Oh too bad sir you fall into Shonmaonīchuan the spring of drowned Panda very tragic story of Panda drown in spring 2000 year ago now anyone fall in spring take body of Panda." The guide explained
"What? You never said anything about that" Was what Ranma replied.
"Maybe if we paid attention instead of just jumping here this wouldn't happen!" Ukyo yelled at the Panda
GenmaPanda didn't respond instead surprised the 2 by smacking them off towards a spring. While in the air Ranma pushed Ukyo away so she doesn't fall into one. Ranma fell into one though and a splash was heard.
"You fall in Nyannīchuan spring of drowned girl. Tragic story of young girl drown in spring 1500 year ago now anyone fall in spring take body of young girl." The guide commented
A shriek of a newly girl Ranma echoed in the valley.
Unfortunately the shriek of Ranma caused Ukyo to cover her ears and didn't see where she was flying, causing her to fall in a spring. The water slopped over Ukyo and she swam out now something else…
"Oh miss, you fall in Inunīchuan spring of drowned dog. Tragic story of dog drown in spring 1019 year ago now anyone fall in spring take body of dog, my big dog."
The ramblings were only heard by Ukyo however as a running redhead was chasing a Panda.
"Come back here so I can kill you Pops!" Ranma yelled
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
"That's what really happened." Ukyo finished.
"Great I feel bad again, thanks Ucchan." Ranma stated sarcastically dreary
"Any time Ran-chan" Ukyo responded smiling
"You aren't thinking of going through with this are you?" Akane asked Ranma
"Yeah right like I'd ever marry anyone right now." Ranma Responded "Besides, it doesn't matter, I'm going back to China and find a cure… somehow"
Kasumi then came in carrying tea.
"Ranma, Ukyo, you aren't leaving are you?" Kasumi asked in her usual voice.
"I… uh…no?" Ranma spat out
You just can't ever argue with Kasumi, its evil to do so.
"We can't anyway Ran-chan, I just remembered" Ukyo intervened. "We can't afford any trips there and I don't want to doggy paddle all the way across the ocean."
Ranma, defeated sulked
"Great, I am cursed and I have to marry a macho chick who is going to kill me. Can this get any worse?" Ranma sighed.
That did it as Ranma was knocked out again purposely this time courtesy of Akane table smash. To top it off she got a bucket and splashed Ranma with cold water and she stormed off.
"Oh my, Akane can be so sensitive sometimes, I hope she would stop hurting Ranma, she's our guest." Kasumi said sadly… well… Kasumi like sadness… so…. "Ukyo would you like some tea"
Ukyo decided to stay and drink some with Kasumi and maybe help her a bit as Ranma had another bump on her head.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Later after Ranma came to… again, the 3 guests were in the guest room with Kasumi by the door.
"You don't have to sleep here Ukyo; Akane might allow you to sleep in her room." Kasumi stated
"No, I have slept with Ranma and Pop for 10 years, I won't leave them" Ukyo responded not looking at Kasumi
"Alright if any of you need anything I'll be here" Kasumi said as she left
"Ucchan, maybe she's right, it's hard to fit 3 futons in here." Ranma said
"There's plenty of room, especially for my bed, it's not that big."
Ranma wondered what she meant but then went to bed… female, just in case. (Soun Tendo might get him for sleeping in the same room as a girl, even Ukyo, stupid engagement thing) Ukyo waited for Ranma to sleep then poured a glass of water on her head shifting to a dog as she snuggled at the foot of Ranma's futon which had a bit more room than usual due to a certain person's gender. As the day ended with a redhead girl with a dog and a panda sleeping in the room…
Author's notes: That's the 1rst chapter done and a lot more will come. Ukyo a dog? Yep. Wanted to do that since I saw a form on who should have what curse. Ukyo was an easy choice to be a dog. Ukyo is the best friend, then what is more fitting than a dog? Ukyo, Ranma's best friend, Man's best friend is dog, Ranma is an Aquatransexual, and this means he/she needs a best friend. Add that all up = An Aquatransexual's Best Friend= Ukyo. Simple really. I even Googled the phrase and didn't find it. I was sure someone would make Ukyo a dog by now, but the only thing I could find was a forum that had that as a "What might Ukyo's curse be". Yes, for now Ukyo is Ranma's friend and to reinforce it Ranma does not think of her in that way. So sad huh? However, Ukyo haven't given up Ranma, just like Akane and Dr Tofu in the beginning of the story until Ranma was around a bit. Think of it that way if you need to. Ukyo can now help Ranma and Akane get together, or try to destroy their relationship. Review and let the war begin! *evil laugh*
