Chapter 4

Life without Ranma

One Year Later

It has been a year of peace and quiet for one Ranma Saotome. He goes to a new school away from Nerima and from the chaos that he was once the center of it. Now that he left, Nerima was not as chaotic as it once was, and with half of those who cause the chaos are gone life have returned to the Pre-Ranma Era, everyone seems quite happy except for the hardware store merchants and building contractors, they lost a lot of business in Nerima. However, to a few individuals some are good others are bad.

The Amazons have closed shop and left for China for good this time. Shampoo cried for a week until she admits her defeat. Now with Ranma is out of the picture, Mousse thought he has the best chance to take advantage of her state of weakness, but he ended up getting punch so hard he had a free trip back to China, and only after she put him thru an hour of being her punching bag as a side of beef hanging on a hook. Shampoo threw all that bottled up emotions especially her anger towards Mousse, because of his continuous interference, his attack on Ranma and his refusal to accept NO from her is part of her failure. She blames him more than she blames Akane, but she blames herself more than she blames anyone.

Ukyo, Ranma cute fiancée went home as well. She came home carrying a very fat Bankbook after depositing Ranma check along with truckloads of gifts for his father, and also a letter of apology from Ranma. Later on, He personally came to apologize to Ukyo Father for the evil Genma, has committed on them, and told him that Genma is no longer a member of the Saotome Family. Ranma hopes to have a lasting friendship with them. Ukyo father accepted his apology and friendship and applaud his sense of honor. (Although, he do want Genma punished, and the thought sticking him on top of an anthill covered with honey came in mind a few times) with all debts have been settled, Ranma felt a sense of relief in his heart as making things right always do.

Kasumi Tendo. She of all people is close to Ranma as a sister than anyone; and for that, Ranma wanted her to fulfill her dreams no matter what it cost. Mrs. Saotome helps by taking her to a Medical School for an evaluation test of her knowledge in medicine. They gave her a written test first and when they rated it, her I.Q. was impressively high. Not surprising since Kasumi have studied all of Dr. Tofu medical books that she kept borrowing from him, and when he heard that she was going to take an entrance test, he sent a letter of recommendation to that school. It turns out that Dr. Tofu is one of the most well respected doctors in the medical community, for to have someone like him giving his full support means that person can be a promising doctor. It was not long after that she started class immediately; there were a few paperwork that needed to be done, Mrs. Saotome handled that, along with a generous donation to the school she is studying at. Kasumi dream to be a doctor is now a step closer for her.

Nabiki Tendo is still in school with only a year left before entering College. The 'Nerima Ice Queen' has been rather quiet lately since Ranma left. Business was slow but it was no loss for her, yet she misses some of the times with Ranma, which was both exciting and profitable. She still felt rather disappointed in herself though, she never thought that Ranma was that rich, if she had become his fiancée. The Wealth and Power was in her grasp and she lost it. However, she is grateful that once she gets her degree in College she gets to work in one of Japans most Influential Business groups, and a stockholder to lucrative Industry compliments of the Saotome Family

Now all of the good fortunes of both sisters kept it a secret from the rest of the family or they might misunderstood them as being bribed by Ranma and his Mother. However, when Soun and Akane found out that, Kasumi wants to go back to school they were surprised about that, not to mention expensive. So how will she pay her Tuition Fees? She explained her reason how and why without lying to them, she told them half a truth. Kasumi explained that she wanted to further her study in medicine, Dr. Tofu recommended the school, and as for the financial needs, Nabiki is handling that for she gave all her savings (not mentioning Mrs. Saotome's monetary help) as an Investment in one of her business ventures. It was all true though, she did gave all her savings to Nabiki, the returns she got was enough to financially support her all the way with extra for anything she wants for herself. In a way, she and Nabiki are Financially Secured.

The return of her Investments was more money than Kasumi ever had in her life, and that caught the greedy eye of both Soun and Genma. So they schemed, to at least to have some of that good fortune, at first they told Kasumi that the house needs fixing. However, Kasumi knows full well, that the house doesn't need any more repairs to be done; she did not buy that, so she said no.

They tried another swindle. Soun and Genma pretended to be sick in bed when they accidentally ate one of Akane cooking and needed to buy medicine. Therefore, they ask her for some money, that would have worked, but knowing how toxic Akane dishes were even by smelling it. It was impossible to even taste it, other than being forced fed, and then luck has it, that Dr. Tofu drop by at the house at that time. Knowing that their deception will be discovered the moment Tofu examined them. Quickly they acted as if they just miraculous been healed. Then ran off to do some errands they said. However, both Kasumi and Nabiki knew from the start that they were faking from the start.

Kasumi and Nabiki have started to get irritated with their Father and Genma constant scheming and attempts to scam them, which was lame to say the least. Last and maybe, the most distasteful act they have done, and the Biggest Mistake, they told Kasumi and Nabiki just handover their money. Their excuse was they have the right have some of the money since they are the fathers of the house, and what they say is law. It however made Kasumi and Nabiki very bloody angry at them, their Audacity to even asking them to handover what is theirs to be used for their dreams was the lowest they could get, after all the sacrifices, all of the work, it seems that they were not appreciated.

The two Sisters for the first time committed one violent act. From the memories of their martial arts training. Kasumi quickly grabbed her father shirt and slammed him down on the floor. Her battle Aura was flaring with anger, as Nabiki did the same to Genma, and there began their act of 'POUNDING THE TWO IDIOTS SOME COMMON SENSE IN THEIR FIXED SKULL, ANYTHING GOES STYLE' they throw out all their anger and frustration at the two Fathers for nearly ten minutes non-stop using an Iron Forged Mallets in hand. When they woke up, they found themselves in a Mummy cast.

In a Final Warning, Kasumi and Nabiki threatened to leave the house and live on their own if they try to Scam them again. That threat would mean their doom which is worst than being pounded to death. A frightening thought came in mind. If Kasumi leave, 'Akane will have to cook for them' they thought. Those are not healthy thoughts to have, and if Nabiki left, were just as worst. She's the only one holding the house up financially, thanks to her money making skills. And since both Soun and Genma of them has no source of Income to support themselves. It was obvious that they were not in the position to argue, and with two sisters looking down on them with Battle Aura's and holding those Mallets with glowing Red Eyes Flaring, they do not have much choice in the matter, and so they had to concede defeat.

Soon after that, both fathers never spoke of it ever. As for Akane, well she just sit at the sideline, though she is happy that her sister is finally going back to school but never put the connection to Ranma and his Mother helping them. (She's so dense)

Now for Akane Tendo A.K.A The Kitchen Destroyer the starts of another semester for her minus one fiancée, she thought that everything would be fine now that he is gone from her life, everything would go back to normal once again. but if you think fighting your way into school against a horde of Hentai boys and one delusional samurai wannabe who is now Happy as a clam at the bottom of the ocean and twice as annoying as an itch you can't scratch in public, your sadly mistaken

"Akane Tendo! The fowl sorcerer is gone at last my beloved, you are free to come to my arms!" he leaps at her with open arms to her every morning. Seconds later, Tatewaki Kuno found himself kissing the concrete pavement again, along with the rest of the Hentai hordes, again.

"Damn you Ranma, this is all your fault!" she shouted cursing his name as she breath fast from exhaustion of fighting her way into school every morning again. "Can't you jerks give this up?"

Up on the second floor of the building Nabiki watch her youngest sister goes thru the same routine before ranma came "poor Akane" Nabiki muttered just then she hears another familiar battle cry "right on schedule" she look to where it came from as another Kuno came to visit.

"Akane Tendo you Harlot!" cried by one girl from another school coming down on Akane with a Wooden Mallet of all things and in the hands of Kodachi Kuno

"Kodachi!" she looks up just in time to see her face only inches away with that mallet of hers, she avoided it just in time

Akane move back a few steps with her whole body shaking in fear. Ever since Kodachi found out that Ranma left, she comes to school every so often with weapons of all sort to attack Akane. She blames her for driving her Ranma darling away from Nerima to points unknown and for that, she swore vengeance to the Infamous Kitchen Destroyer.

"Can't you give it a rest? You are making me late" Akane words however can't reach the ears of an enrage Kodachi

"It's your fault Ranma left you fiend!" pulling the mallet back up she attack her again.

"I don't have time for this you bitch!" looking up at the school clock she knew she had to get out and just then Akane hears Tatewaki Kuno waking up behind her. If he sees her, she will find herself sandwich between the two Kuno's, Tatewaki who is just pulling himself up and looking up towards Akane, which seems to made him recover quickly for just seeing her. "Akane my darling…"he jump towards her with lips puckered up for a kiss, but instead of the lips of a woman he found himself kissing the soil (2 feet below it and thru the concrete pavement ) Kodachi suddenly realize who she just pounded on the ground unconscious. "Brother…"

For Akane she finally got inside the school at last. She felt relieved and irritated at the same time; relieve to have survived another day. Irritated, that she is going to have to go thru this mess again tomorrow "Ranma…" she muttered with a few tears, though not admitting it she misses him a lot. Ranma is not there anymore to rescue her. It made Akane see what Ranma see when she hit him with that thing, Akane have only once tasted its kinetically induced pain on the first week when Ranma was gone she had to defend herself again but she got careless. She does not want to feel it again however, when she saw that mallet again she nearly froze from fear but she controlled her fear and did a sidestep away from it and ran towards the building as fast as she could not caring what happens to Kuno.

Her average school day without him, and she hates it every moment of it.

Meanwhile an oversized Panda is walking around giving leaflets to people interested in learning Martial Arts. It Read 'TENDO SCHOOL OF ANYTHING GOES MARTIAL NOW OPEN TO RECEIVE NEW STUDENTS' along with his Banner. Genma is finally doing an honest living for once

Genma (Ex-Saotome and Ex-Masaki) with no Clan associated is trying to make a meager living as much as he can, now that the Masaki Clan has just disowned him. Katsuhito, Genma Father found out what his Son did to his Grandson in the ten-year training trip including the Infamous NEKO KEN, along with all the Illegal activity he did. All thanks to two very lovely women who are probably the only Light of Wisdom in that household, for they decided to send a letter to the Masaki Clan secretly and tell them about one freeloading guest.

That freeloading guest is still making their bills too high without even giving one cent to help pay some of it. Their father Soun said that he is still a guest and he'd loose his shogi partner if that happens, that lame excuse that don't hold water on them, and even after Ranma left with his mother they are still scheming to get ranma to marry either Akane, Kasumi or Nabiki.

The two sisters decided they had had enough and about two months ago, they made their move.

When The Masaki Clan headed by Katsuhito Masaki came to Tokyo to visit some relatives, the Tendo's was the first on their list. Kasumi let them in when they introduce themselves as the Masaki Clan; she took them to the living room to see Genma, they were just on time to hear Genma Bragged of being The Heir to the Masaki Clan, which made one Shinto priest very angry.

While Genma and Soun is playing Shogi, Genma was Bragging that loosing the Saotome Name is no loss to him. Now he takes the name Masaki, his former family name and that he is heir to that clan since he is first born. "Relax Soun. once I tell that old fool of what my ungrateful son and my Wife did but in My, version of the story he's bound to support me so don't worry Soun that's Money in the Bank" he Laughs as though he thinks that he's so smart in everything he didn't realize an aura of one enrage Shrine Priest becoming very strong is coming towards him

"Money in the Bank Indeed Genma" said by a very familiar very angry and very powerful man with veins appearing on his forehead. Genma stops laughing suddenly his face pale to the comparison of seeing death in front of him, he slowly look back behind him and he was hoping it was not someone he wanted to see but with no such luck, "Pops…" he swallowed hard and was wetting his pants.

"Old fool am I you say, eh Genma" with a venomous sound with the temptation to draw his Tenchi ken sword from his robes and cut him up in pieces. Only a few times have this Shinto Priest lost his control over his anger most of which was wholly caused by Genma and if that happens, you do not want to be in the same solar system.

"Hello...Father…" were the only words Genma could say as he is paralyzed in fear in hearing the sounds of clicking knuckles from fist ready to do some punching, he look back to face his Father Katsuhito Masaki, radiatingan aura of angerand bhoy, is Genma just got what's coming for him.

"YOU IDIOT!" Katsuhito Screamed at him and everything went all white for Genma.

There was a loud explosion moments later. Ten minutes after that Genma, found himself still in LEO and falling to points Unknown. (I know a lot of you would probably want him to land somewhere unfortunate. I was going to make him land in the Pacific Ocean in Shark Infested waters, but that would be too cruel for the sharks for they might get indigestion and become extinct the man is unhealthy to the environment)

A month later.

Genma got back to the Tendo's from who knows where he landed. (If anyone looks close, enough they can see pen marker lines encircling his neck, arms and legs, and if further examination was done you can find more along with a 'REJECTED' stamp on his bald head under a cloth covering it. Someone out there caught him then let him go for reasons we don't know) He had thought that it was safe to come back to the only home he knows. his first stop was the Kitchen, he was starving and was hoping for any leftovers if Kasumi put something away, however at that same time, Ryoko was also raiding the kitchen for any of Kasumi delicious cooking whom to her personal opinion, it just as delicious as Sasami cooking. It was then when she heard someone coming in. She quickly phase thru the floor and waited for the unfortunate intruder that dares to violate the sanctity of someone else's home. Ryoko hope it was Genma, because on her opinion the man deserve pain, after hearing the horrible stories of Ranma training trip from Kasumi and Nabiki she wants a piece of him first and prayed that she will be first to get a crack at him, a kami must have heard her

Genma entered quietly thru the backdoor like a thief and went straight towards the Fridge and pig out, without even noticing a person behind him with glowing Eyes and a hand that was pulsating with electricity, he could have felt someone nearby but he was so preoccupied in stuffing his face, and for that, he broke a certain cardinal rule among warriors. 'Always keep your guard up'. "Genma Saotome…?"she said softly and alluringly, he stops suddenly when he heard his name and the feeling of dread just went thru his spine. "It's good that we meet each other first"she gave him a smilebefore she let him have it "ZZZZZAAAAAPPP!"

Genma felt High Voltage electricity like a thunderstorm building up a charge before releasing its power to the ground, In this case on him. Just as he sees the Silhouette of a woman and those glowing red eyes that speaks power. At that moment, he light up like a Christmas tree before blacking out.

The Next morning, Genma woke up to find himself in the Tendo Training Hall facing his Father.

"You Dishonorable Son of Mine!" he said angrily. Genma never thought he would hear those words pointing at him usually though he used those words on Ranma, which he stole from him.

"But Father …"

"Don't you dare Father me you… you 'STUPID PANDA BAKA!'" his KI flared for a moment when he cut him off from making an excuse, from his anger pointed at Genma who is just sitting at the center of the house cringing in fear from his father wrath. Nearby is Soun who is also afraid along with Akane, her sisters, Kasumi and Nabiki were outside Spared from the crossfire again but could hear the angry Grandfather of Ranma. Outside the Training Hall, surrounding every door and window are the Masaki Clan. Ayeka and Sasami along with their Guardian logs Azaka Kamidake watch the windows while Ryoko blocks the doorway and for good measures, Washu put up a barrier around the compound above and below the floor and ceiling.

Unknown to Genma, Washu placed one of her dimensional tunnels at the Tendo's. The Masaki Clan waited a month for Genma's return, which they knew in advance thanks to Washu tracking system. They knew he was just nearby hiding making sure the Masaki's was not around so they play a waiting game, In order to give Genma his just deserved punishment. Thru that time the Tendo's came to know them quite well, especially Tenchi. Whom it seems he has some of the characteristics to Ranma own Women Problems one of which is that two gorgeous women surrounding him namely Ayeka and Ryoko is always fighting for the Boy affection, and they are as just as territorial as some girls they know.

'It has to be Hereditary' Nabiki thought in remark, when she observed how two of the girls fight for Tenchi attention, it reminds him of Ukyo, Shampoo and Kodachi it made her quite nostalgic.

While they waited outside they can hear Katsuhito angry words, for Tenchi he has never seen his grandfather angry with anyone. Not even against Kagato and this was the firstime they see him angry.

"Oh, why am I cursed with such an ungrateful son? And yet, I am blessed with a Grandson who is more honorable than his Father!" he stomps around. Angry as hell, and then he look back at Genma. "Never, have I ever been so dishonored by your misdeeds, your mistreatment to your son all in the name of training!" neither Ayeka, Sasami or Ryoko has ever witness Katsuhito (a.k.a.Yosho) this angry before and it was terrifying to say the least,Genma was really this awful to Incur such wrath from the Prince of Jurai.

"You sold him to fill your belly then steal him back, you used his Innocence to steal for you unknowingly, you arrange marriages without his knowledge or consent to God knows how many now you dare to claim Clan Leadership! How Dare You!" in every word he said the space seems to shake from his anger, the walls shook as though trying to hold back a torrent of water. Genma feels so helpless and alone for no one wants to come to his defense not even his best friend Soun; he has never felt such raw power before even from Happosai. So he sits there daring not to speak out for him, even Akane was afraid.

"It is all training father, Ranma… that ungrateful son of mine have dishonored…"

"SILENCE!" he cut him off, Genma's attempts to excuse himself and point the blame on ranma was not working. "STUPID PANDA BAKA, DON'T BLAME MY GRANDSON FOR YOUR IDIOCY!" he roared at him and giving his own version of Soun Demon head act before calming down a little.

"You preach honor to your son and that he must always practice its virtue and yet you do the opposite of what you Preach. You just use the word honor to control him for your own gains and pleasure and what is worst…." He looks at him straight in the eye, those Glowing Red Eyes "You threw your own son, My Grandson into a pit of cats just to learn the NEKO KEN without reading the whole Book!" now Genma knew he was really angry at him. The book in question was supposedly safely stored in Katsuhito archives, a library of books and manuscript that he has acquired for many years of travel and where Genma stole. He suddenly felt the urge to wet himself like a frightened child. "I doubt that you would heed the warning it has and continued on despite the consequences of your actions!" he growled at him

The sound of knuckles from Katstuhito hands made him more worried. then Ryoko suggestedsomething "why don't we tie him up with fish sausage and throw him the pit of cats lets see if he likes how it feels of what ranma went thru" the Masaki's smiled on the Idea. Ayeka remark "Ryoko that's too cruel, too vicious, and barbarically inhumane even for him, not to mention it's…justice. LET"S DO IT!" she said approvingly to the Idea from Ryoko for once

Terrified to the Bone now, Genma was looking for a way out of the Dojo. He look at the doorways and then the windows, then quickly he bolted towards the window where Sasami is standing on guard, thinking that she was just a weak child he could easily to push her away, but as he rush her Genma was struck by a Barrier courtesy of The Goddess Tsunami "You stupid fool," she said, "There is nowhere to run,"Sounding like a mature woman, she continued to give Genma some shock treatment. Her act of Divine Justice, making sure he will not run again. After ten minutes of giving Genma 10,000 volts of electricity, you would think he would have died by now and yet he is still alive "he's so resilient."Amazed that he was so hard to kill

Nevertheless, it shocks him good enough to stun him even if he smell like burned flesh he's still alive. They wake him up with a bucket of water, which turns him into a Panda. He Recover very quickly which is expected from a Saotome, knowing that he has to find a way to protect himself quickly, his mind goes thru his list known as 'The Genma Saotome 1,000 Ways to Escape Certain Death Especially from your Father' and found one. He postured himself in a begging position and pulling up a sign saying, "PLEASE DON'T HURT ME I AM AN ENDANGERED SPECIES" that resulted in Multiple Facefaults.

"You are such a coward Genma," Katsuhito groaned. He could not believe it. Genma was trying to get out of a beating thru a technicality now he's in a Panda form "no one will hurt you but if you run again Genma, I will personally give you to Washu do you understand" Katsuhito said.

He pointed towards a small redheaded girl in Nurse's Uniform, and disturbingly wearing black garden gloves and holding a nasty looking needle he has ever seen, Washu smiled at him like having a New Guinea Pig to experiment with an Operating Table right behind her.

While Tsunami was trying to cook Genma electrically, Washu was set-up a Hightech Operating table with arms and legs restraints made of steel. Around the sides are mechanical arms and devices at the end of it, and they all look so very painful. If you see one of it holding a circular Saw, a Drill the size of a fist and one of them look like a Butcher's Meat Cleaver you'd be worried. He pales and sweatdrop just thinking of what she's going to do to him

"You can't run away this time Genma," Katsuhito said. "Despite all of the pain you have inflicted on my Grandson Ranma, he wants us to be lenient to you, so I will Grant his wishes" he calmed himself. He is letting some of his anger go and the tension in the air around them is slowly going away.

"Despite everything, your son forgives you. After all, you kept one promise and that is to make him the best Martial Artist in the World." He told him

"Be grateful that Ranma is far wiser than you can ever Imagine Genma, and I am glad he did not inherit your Character. Therefore, by his request, we will be forgiving your worthless life, but you will not carry the Masaki name… I was going to take you back though, but you're scheming and actions …I have thought otherwise." There was sadness in his voice as he decided a punishment for Genma.

"So by this moment on, I Katsuhito Masaki hereby Banish you from the clan Genma, your name will be remove from the family register, no member of the clan will consider you family unless you reform and redeemed yourself ." Katsuhito has never felt so saddened to what his son has become. Partly because he did not raise Genma well enough, and now he has become this sorry excuse of a man who's getting what he wants and running from the consequences or putting the blame on others has become his nature. Katstuhito however can't punish him any further other than breaking his arms and legs which was considered but, he just couldn't, he promised his Grandson. The others of the clan however, they want a piece of him some with obvious reason

"Oh, come on Yosho" Washu complained the redheaded girl started to pout, "you could at least let me remove an arm or legs for studying geez, I can't believe you let him off the hook so easily." Everybody sweat drop to her complaint (and Hearing an electric saw for effects means, she is serious) but for Genma it was worst, when he eye-ball one of those mechanical arms testing its devices on a dummy replica of him which was disturbing to say the least.

Washu look at him, with an evil looking smile and mechanical arms snaking right behind her. If Genma can read her mind then Washu thoughts would be… 'I have an Electric Saw I want to introduce you to Genma' and with that thought his Imagination went out of control from fear. When he sees himself strap down on a cold table, looking up to see a mechanical arms with scissors coming down towards his pants, he started screaming in Panda language with his Sign held up "PLEASE DON'T, I'M ALREADY CIRCUMSIZED" a moment later he fainted. Everybody sweatdrop when they saw that, realizing that he just imagine his fate out of fear

"My Son a coward" Yosho remark shaking his head to his son unmanliness,

"Are you sure this Hunk of Lard related to you Yosho?" Ryoko ask. She could not believe it herself at this guys cowardice, "I can't believe he's Ranma's Father".

"Sadly Ryoko he is my Son and Ranma's Father".

With no Clan and no School Genma is just Genma, the Masaki's left him and about a few minutes later he was thrown out of the streets by the Tendo sisters since there is no more reason for him to stay. Soun couldn't do anything, he was in shock to the powers of that Shinto Priest and the rest of the clan, Genma begged them to let him stay and promise to pay Rent, if they just let him stay for a while

So here, he is now doing an honest job for once in his life and actually paying Rent to the Tendo's for once in his life.

At that same night as well, not far away at a neighbors Rooftop drinking hot Tea is Happosai, for some strange reason the 200-year-old pervert stops stealing women's underwear for a while. Happi stopped when he bestowed the title of Grandmaster and was taking it easy for a change.

His senses detected a lot of Battle Aura from the Dojo; prudence says to stay away for now. Thankfully, he heeded it and just listening in with enhanced hearings tells him the same. He senses another aura and a familiar one just behind him "are you going to stand there all night Ranma" he said lifting the Veil of his Umi-sen-ken to reveal one Ranma Saotome.

"Yosho is too lenient to Genma" Happosai said "I ask him to Gramps, despite what Pops did I don't think he deserve a punishment worst than death, besides if he was a lot worst he would have lost me along time ago or even worst I would have killed him myself" Ranma said.

Happi look to the young man and smiled in his wisdom. "You are too kind Ranma" Happi said, "You show maturity beyond your age"

"That's what Grampa Saotome Said to me," he said

"So then Grandmaster Ranma Saotome, what will you do next?"

"Schoolwork" he answered

"Good Idea"

This is what happens when Ranma is absent in Nerima. For a year now, the 'Wildhorse of Nerima' is living in Low Profile (yeah right, fat chance in hell if that happens) as not to attract unwanted attention, and where he is now? He is walking home and doing his balancing using a steel fence as a walkway.

Ranma Saotome third year highschool is walking home, after another hectic day at school at an undisclosed location faraway from Nerima as possible. Ever since he left Nerima Ranma have uninterrupted time on its own and making new friends as he focused on his education a lot more now but not neglecting his Martial Arts.

With some of his problems is partly solved, Ranma chaotic life never repeated itself. His gender-changing curse is no longer a problem, thanks to Grandfather Masaki. His knowledge of earth's magic is vast since he lived on earth for centuries and traveled everywhere and learning a lot about his new home more than anyone else on the planet. He knew about Jyusenkyo, and knows a solution though not a cure he gave Ranma the means to control his curse like a switch, that took alot of the weight off his shoulders in which he is very grateful to him. Now here he is, with a smile in his face and with new friends

His Life now is close to being normal as it can get, and yet fate's hand is working its magic. In heaven three Goddesses is making the final adjustments for the Wildhorse.

Heaven: Yggdrasil Super Computers Section

"There, finished" Skuld said stretching her arms and legs after making a few adjustments to the Yggdrasil computers.

Urd yawned. Feeling exhausted after 2weeks of working on one file from the 'Destined for Greatness' list of Kamisama. One mortal of a great importance and Urd's favorite mortal "Father and Tsunami really wants this boy to have full access to his powers" she remark with some doubts in his mind. We unlock the door but it will be his freewill to open it" still it worries her to let a mortal possess so much power especially this one "Is this the right decision Bell?"

"He is a special person my sister" Belldandy said, "An extraordinary mortal, the possessor of the powers of the Light Hawk will make him an even more a powerful warrior than he is now, our hope is that he is wise enough to be responsible to such a power"

"Well after everything he went thru and especially that Idiot father of his put him thru mostly, he's wise enough to know what's right and wrong," Skuld said.

"Especially now that he's going to have more Women Problems than his cousins has now" Urd giggled to the thought "It's all your fault you Ranma Saotome, for being such a handsome Casanova" she said though it sounded like she blaming him, she was actually cheering him on

The two Goddesses look at each other and sighed Beldlandy ask with a suspicion "Urd, you didn't mess with Ranma lovelife again now did you?" she asks. Nevertheless, she already knows the answer to that question. The self-appointed goddess of love has a bad track record when it comes to matchmaking and romance, especially when she interfered with her lovelife with Keiichi

"Oh don't worry sis, he'll be fine and besides he is a complete gentlemen to women everywhere, he would never take advantage of any woman which makes him so attractive"

"It is not him I am worried about It's the women" Belldandy said

"Are you talking about that school teacher?" Skuld ask curious Urd smiled from ear to ear and that was a definite yes

"She got him drunk, took him to her bed, undresses him and did the wildthing, woohoo! Way to go Girl!" Urd cheered for the only woman that got to bed Ranma, the two Goddesses sweatdrop to her cheers knowing full well that she's responsible for ranma multitude of women problems.

"Will you shut up Urd!" she yelled at her. At that moment, Skuld blushed when she suddenly had erotic thoughts of the wildhorse and herself. The Image of her naked at a green field surrounded by flowers with him 'Where the heck did that come from!' the mental image change. All of the sudden, her thoughts of her wearing a gladiator outfit holding a whip on one hand and can of Instant whip cream on the other, while looking down on a tied-up (a Girltype) Ranma and laughing like Kodachi. She blushed in deep red from head to toe, seeing that image her head before she screamed "HENTAI!" She shook those thoughts off her mind, which is unbecoming for a goddess, and then glared at her sister Urd angrily

Urd! Stop that!" she screamed at her and pulling out her Mallet which is a lot bigger than the usual. (She probably at Mallets-R-Us store where Akane got her mallet) she knew that her sister just put her on that list again

"OK! OK!" with a quick short tap on her keyboard with an amused smile. A list known as 'Girls Pair-Up with Ranma Saotome' next below 'Girls Pair-Up with Tenchi Masaki' and 'Girls Pair-Up with Yamada Seina' went up on her screen and a list of a thousand girls fills it up. Urd pull up her sisters Bio and deleted it. "Done" Skuld put away her mallet still angry at her for pulling that stunt on her

'Girls Pair-Up Program' is a list of girls that will fall, for the man on the list very badly, compliments of Urd the Self Appointed Goddess of Love and which Skuld is one of the latest victims.

"Don't do that again!" Skuld growled at her before going back to her seat. Even a goddess is not immune to Urd's list. The list powers will only take effect in a love at first site encounter and if they have feelings of affections for him, it's magnified by the list, this is part of Ranma's Woman Magnet charms. If a girls name is on the list, you are most likely to fall in love, which made Skuld angry when she was on it as a joke. Skuld found out when at one time she bumps into Ranma down on Earth a while back. When the moment she laid eyes on him, Skuld jumps him and gave him an amazon style glomping that can make Shampoo proud of her, and a surprised Ranma muttered "not another fiancée"

It surprised even Urd to see Skuld have strong feelings for him

She, along with a hundreds of thousand Girls and women on the list to pair him up with and that pretty much causes ranma to have a huge migraine of problems when it comes to women who are after him.

"Hey, all I did was pair-up Ranma with the Best Girls in the World who are perfect for him and besides the kid is a gentleman to all of them, and as for that tomboy, well that's not my fault" she said.

"It's those two Idiots fault that Ranma had a hard life" Skuld said and complained "Father is too lenient on them they should have been given a more harsh punishment especially Genma"

"Father is merciful Skuld" Belldandy said "Ranma have forgiven Genma despite of it all, he showed maturity beyond his years and I don't think that sending those two to Hild's Ninth Level of Hell would be appropriate. It's too harsh and too good for them don't you think"

"Sending them to Purgatory for 1,000 years doesn't sound very right either" Urd said disagreeing "it's not right" Skuld, agrees as well

"It is right, if your punishment is to work as a Janitor and your job is to clean up Purgatory's entire wash room section, and they stretch forever" all three visualize the place the two will be sent and one word came out in chorus

"EWWWWW"

A moment later, they all laugh and realized it was a fitting punishment for those two. Meanwhile The Yggdrasil computers are in the process of fulfilling the commands given.

Back on Earth.

Ranma is meditating at the Saotome's privately own 7,000-square acre forest situated near Mount Fuji. The forest is a game preserve that protects Japans natural wilderness from urban development and logging, he came here during the weekends, which is not very far since he lives nearby. It is here that lately he felt strangely drawn towards the deepest and oldest part of the forest at a circle of cherry trees.

Irritated as to why he walk toward the center of the sakura trees, and there stands a lone tree which look more like the sacred tree his grandfather has in Ohkayama, yet it was 10 times bigger and taller like that of the big Redwood in North America. This huge tree made him very curious. for one thing the tree wasn't even there before, to find such a tree that look so out of place is strange, not to mention he have been passing-by this part of the forest several times now and he would have noticed it. Nevertheless, there it is. And what's even more curious to him is that he felt very comfortable with no uneasy feeling. He senses no danger but absolute serenity.

As he was about a few feet away from the tree, a thick cloud slowly encircles him and the tree. Ranma look up and then he heard a voice inside his head a woman's voice "It's been a long time Ranma, my oh my, look how manly you are now" that voice came from the tree and the way it talks it sounded almost like his mother from that last sentence.

The voice sound so familiar to him but do not know whom it belonged to or where it was coming from. "Who are you?" he asks and moments later, she appeared. A woman with long blue hair, pink eyes wearing strange robes and a triangle shape object on her forehead. 'She's beautiful' is his first thoughts that came in mind, and that made him blushed.

"Hello Ranma" she said smiling to him

"Uh, H-Hello" he look at her again and focused his senses this time, he feels no danger but a strong kinship with nature and a power that surpass Saffron or Herb, minus the stench of a soul corrupted by power

"My name is Tsunami, you don't remember me because you were only four when we meet each other last time, today you are here to learn your heritage and I am here to teach you"

The thick cloud that surrounded the circle of trees parted away, the big tree disappeared as well as Ranma

TBC

Hild's Ninth Level of Hell. It is the place where the most vilest people are sent for their eternal punishment if you can't imagine it try this combine Hellraiser, Event Horizon, Friday the 13th Jason and Freddy Crueger nightmare on Elm street then multiply it to 1,000,000 fold

As for Purgatory, well I don't know what it looks like really, I think of it as one endless Waiting Room with endless Wash Room
