Thanks for giving me the needed kick in the pants to update this goes to Foxstar-WarriorsFan101.

I don't own Ranma. If I did, I would be the one to marry him.


"Airen! That mean today Shampoo get to marry you!" Shampoo cried in her usual third-person. She glomped onto him again while everyone else was staring in disbelief. She had gotten up much faster then anyone could have expected from Akane's 'Punishing Perverts' attack. "And we get to have wedding here!"

"Oh no you don't," a (slightly deranged) voice cried from the roof of the house. "Today is the day I get married to my sweet Ranma." In her usual skimpy gymnast's outfit, Kodachi Kuno stood on the peak of the roof, twirling her 'Black Rose' ribbon.

Nabiki started counting. "1, 2, 3…"

"No my dear sister, I forbid it." Appearing out of the blue on the roof of the house a yard away from his sister, Kuno struck a pose. "For I, Tatewaki Kuno shall smite the evil fiend you so desire and free my beloved Akane Tendo and the pigtailed goddess."

"Not so, brother dear. For I am determined to marry him and even if you are family I shall not tolerate any that stand in my way!" She shrieked, turning the tip of her ribbon menacingly in his direction.

"You no ignore Shampoo!" the purple-haired girl asserted. Leaping up onto the roof easily, the two girls circled, eyeing each other. Shampoo took out her bonbori, and Kodachi pulled out her razor-edged hoop. Both ignored the ranting Kuno in the background.

Meanwhile, as the catfight was gearing up, Ranma ran inside and came out carrying a huge pack on his shoulders. He attempted to sneak out the back door, but was cornered by Nabiki before he could escape. Holding two kettles in her hands, she shoved them in his face.

"All right, listen up. Until now I've let you slide because you're amusing, but it's got to stop. All this property damage is raising our insurance to unbelievable heights. Not to mention that you're leading my little sister on. Now I expect you to pick ONE fiancé, just one, to marry by the end of this week."

Ranma paled. Picking one fiancé, although he knew which one he wanted, would instantly make her a target of all the other fiancés collective ire, and although Akane was able to nail him with her mallet, he knew that she was the weakest of the regular fiancés.

"Um…. What happens if I refuse?"

"Bad things. You don't want to go there." Nabiki smiled predatorily. "You see, if you don't, I'll pour cold water on you and sell you to Kuno for a hundred thousand yen. He's good for it and you owe us money anyway for all the collateral damage."

Ranma gulped. He didn't even want to think what Kuno would try to do to him on the most romantic day of the year, Valentine's Day, when he already had enough trouble with him on every other day of the year. He shivered. But on the other hand, even he wouldn't be able to shield Akane from all the fiancés, there were simply too many of them. Heck, he still suspected there were others out there that Pop hadn't told him about. 'And wouldn't this be a time for one of them to show up' he thought glumly. But he screwed up his courage and took the leap. "I ….
