My Dear Okaasan, My Dear Imoutochan

(My Dear Mother, My Dear Little Sister)

Chapter 1

That'll hurt in the morning! Ranma faces a new challenger!

3 Months Later

Saotome Ranma,

I challenge you to a battle on the honor of the Tendo Dojo of Anything-Goes Martial Arts. If you accept, come to the park at 3 PM sharp tomorrow. I'll be waiting.

Sincerely,

The Wanderer.

"So Ranma, are you going to accept?" Akane asked, brushing back her short blue hair. She, 16, was the youngest daughter of Tendo Soan, and Ranma's semi-reluctant fiancée. A great martial artist, she liked the more tomboyish things in life, and was very sweet.

"Of course I am! I never step down from a fight!" Boasted Ranma. He was also 16, and had blue-black hair in a braided ponytail. He had spent nearly his whole life training with his father Genma, leaving home, along with his 2 year old sister and his mother, when he was 4. Unfortunately, about 3 and half months ago, he fell into a Cursed Spring of Drowned Girl. Now, whenever he is splashed with cold water, he turns into a girl.

"Well, come on!" Akane said, slipping on her shoes and stepping towards the door.

"Wait a sec, what do you mean?" Ranma asked, not quite understanding.

"That mail came in yesterday, you baka! Don't you remember? You were too lazy to open it!" Akane said as she checked her wristwatch. "2:45? Come on Ranma, we're going to be late!" She said, before grabbing Ranma's arm and pulling him out the door.

Where is he? Thought Tori as she nervously tied the cloak's hood around her head. She didn't want to immediately be recognized. He better be here soo- She thought, before a bucket of cold water was dumped on her head. Shoot! It's a good thing my clothes still look all right! He said, shaking out his now-blue hair.

"Watch it!" Stated a random person from above. "You might hit someone with that water!"

Tori muttered something incoherent about 'baka people with baka water'. He then looked at his outfit. It was simple, blue-black pants (like Ranma wore with his Chinese-top before Ryoga ripped it to shreds), and an electric blue Chinese-style top (like Ranma's old top). It suited him well.

"Ranma, look!" Shouted a female voice from behind him. Tori turned around to face a young woman he didn't know. Then, behind her Tori saw his brother, who he hadn't seen since Ranma's last visit 2 years ago. "Holy cow! Ranma, it looks like a mini-you!"

"Wow, you're right." Ranma said, running up to Tori. He carefully studied him, his outfit, and his expression. Then, Ranma stated, "So, are you the guy who challenged me?"

"Hai. My name is…" Tori stated, realizing that suspicions would rise if he said 'Yorutori'. So, he quickly finished with, "YoruUta. I hope that we can start out battle now. You're 10 minutes late."

"I TOLD you," Akane said to Ranma, nudging him in the ribs.

"And I told you, I don't care!" Ranma said to Akane. "Now, can we go ahead and get this battle started?"

"Fine. Here I come!" 'YoruUta' said, rushing towards Ranma. First, he landed a sidekick, followed by an uppercut, just to see Ranma's abilities. To his surprise, Ranma avoided them easily.

"Is that all you got? And here I was hoping for a real fight!" Ranma teased, moving back before landing a kick to YoruUta's side.

"I'll show you! Bakusai Tenketsu!" (Author's Note: Is that the right phrase?) YoruUta shouted, index finger extended towards Ranma's forehead. To his surprise, Ranma didn't even flinch.

"Hah. Do you really think I would fall for something like that? Everyone knows that it doesn't work on humans." Ranma taunted, a smirk on his face.

Dang it! Thought YoruUta, Oh well, I'll just have to try something else. "Oh well. I guess it's time for plan B." YoruUta announced, using his knee to hit Ranma in the groin.

"Kuso," Ranma muttered as he dropped to the floor in defeat. Akane looked from Ranma to YoruUta then back again. She seemed to have lost her ability to speak.

Finally, she mustered up thee courage to say, (or shriek, depending on how you look at it) "That's cheating! You can't do that to him!"

YoruUta cockily replied, "First rule of Anything-Goes Martial Arts: Anything-Goes means Anything-Goes." Then, he got down on 1 knee to see how badly Ranma had been hurt.

"Yeah, you are right about that…" Akane replied, before a look of rage crossed her face. "Wait! How do YOU know that!? Have you been spying on us!?" Akane said, a look of death in her eyes.

"Err... Umm... Come on, I'll explain everything at the dojo." And with that said, YoruUta grabbed Ranma's ponytail and proceeded to drag him off toward the dojo.

The end! I hope you like it! And don't worry; explanations will come in the next chapter. Oh, and this is somewhere between seasons 2 and 3, after Happosai comes along. Next time, on Ranma ½: Ranma meets his new brother? Congratulations, Ranma! It's a Boy!
