After a quick explanation of Haruhi's situation to not only Renge but to Ranma as well the men all got their measurements done with Renge and costumes picked out. It didn't even take ten minutes after that for the music room to be filled with the girls who come on a regular bases to the club room. So to say the surprise at seeing a new redhead in the school and in the club room was very quick to spread. Confusion was the next to spread throughout the music hall due to the fact that said redhead called herself Ranma Saotome. The girls in her class were very confused since they met a male Ranma that had black hair not a redheaded female Ranma.

Haruhi was the one showing Ranma what it meant to be a host during the commotion and says, "Would you all believe that Ranma's transformation was magic?"

"Magic? Come on Haruhi. We all are too old to believe that." A random girl answers with others agreeing with her.

"Well Ranma? Would you like to show them?" Haruhi asks figuring that the girls would like to see the transformation. They had to get the girls to stop asking about Ranma otherwise they wouldn't be able to tell them about the party plans.

"Yeah. Why not? Looks like that will be the only way they will believe us anyway." Ranma answers with a roll of her eyes as she does a jumping back flip landing on a table lightly impressing the guests with her aerobatic feat. She then looks to throughout the music hall and says, "Okay everyone! I'm only going to show you this once! So everyone that wants to see me become my normal self you better pay attention! If you don't you just might miss it!"

This got the girls attention as well as the rest of the Host Club as they wanted to have a good look at the transformation this time around. Haruhi provides Ranma with a cup of warm water before backing away and giving everyone room to see. She wouldn't admit it but she was hoping that the transformation would get Renge off her back about being a girl. She didn't want to have to try to deal with her eccentric ideas of cosplay just because she was willing to wear men's clothing.

Ranma makes sure to make a show of her pouring the water on her head and everyone was able to see the change as it happened. They saw Ranma grow a few inches taller and become a well-defined athletic teen. Several girls were quick to reach up and grab for his chest to make sure that he was real. Although there was at least one who was aiming lower than that and made Ranma decide to get off of the table. Thusly keeping that potential headache from happening.

"So ladies what does everyone think?" Ranma asks with a confident smirk.

The response was quick. All of the girls minus Haruhi approved of the transformation. Ranma had become very popular very quickly.

Renge had hearts in her eyes as she kept thinking about all of the potential cosplay that Ranma could do. She also had hearts in her eyes for another reason. She would never argue that she liked what she saw. Ranma was a good looking guy. And as he showed with his jumping backflip he was athletic as well. That kind of skill was hard to find in someone so young. Her thoughts would have gone further had it not been for an explosion of splintered wood and crumbed brick. Something had caused the front doors of the Music Hall to explode. Everyone's only clue was the shout of "Ranma Saotome prepare to die!"

Ranma had shielded Haruhi and Renge from the explosion while Mori Senpai had shielded his cousin and the rest of the host club. Thankfully the guests were all behind them otherwise someone could have gotten hurt.

"Okay Ryoga. What's your problem with me this time?" Ranma shouts as the dust finally settles giving everyone a good look at the one who damaged the school. He had a black and yellow bandana on and he looked to be in just as good of shape as Ranma. He even looked like he could be stronger.

"Like you don't know! Akane has been upset ever since you disappeared! Do you have any idea how long it took me find you!" Ryoga answers Ryoga in complete anger.

Ranma sighs in frustration and answers back, "A little more than a week I'd have to say. That was the last time I saw the Tendos. And are you really angry about me being gone? My Mom had ended all of the engagements when she divorced my good for nothing Pops. So you had a chance to get in on Akane's good side. Instead you come here looking for a fight. Do you really miss having your ass beat around so much Ryoga?"

This response got mixed reactions from the girls watching the confrontation. Half of them loved Ranma's response to Ryoga as it made him look like he had a darker side to him to them. The other half while still liking Ranma's response were fixated on the fact that Ryoga took a week to find him and that Ranma thought that was normal. What kind of person takes a week to look up a school location and get a taxi or something? Even they understood that taxis could get the job done quicker than that.

"I don't care what you try to say! I'm going to make you pay for what you did!" Ryoga answers back and charges Ranma with a fist cocked and ready to attack. Ranma quickly counters Ryoga by hip tossing him behind him and behind the girls behind Ranma. Ranma then jumped and landed a side kick into Ryoga's chest as he was getting up and caused Ryoga to stumble a bit backwards nearing an open window.

"Do you think they realize that the window is open?" Haruhi asks wondering what was Ranma doing. This was on the third floor after all. That would be a hell of a fall for anyone after all. Especially when the first floor raises higher up off the ground than a normal first floor would. Tamaki shrugs his shoulders in genuine confusion as he and everyone else looks on at the fight. The Twins were cheering on Ranma and trying to get the guests involved in the cheering. Kyoya was jotting everything down for the police. They were going to need to be told who destroyed the class room door after all. Mitsukuni and Takashi were carefully studying Ranma's martial arts to get a feel on his style…well Takashi was. Mitsukuni was enjoying cake with his Usa-Chan while talking to the girls. Renge was on commentary for the fight.

The fight got even closer to open window and everyone was on the edge of their seats. Ryoga was on defense wondering what it was that made Ranma angry enough for his attacks to actually hurt. In a last chance effort Ryoga grabbed his umbrella off the side of his pack and threw it at Ranma hoping that he would try to catch it. Instead Ranma dodges on instinct and hits Ryoga with what looked like a rapid series of punches as Ryoga dodges. Meanwhile as he does this seeing as the umbrella hasn't traveled too far past him yet and yells, "Everyone get out of the way! Don't let that umbrella hit you! It's heavier than it looks!"

Hearing the warning everyone clears out of the way just in time as the umbrella flies by them and crashes onto the floor with a loud sound and lots of damage. Once the dust cleared everyone was able to see what damage the umbrella caused.

"That thing caused a crater in the floor! How heavy can it be!" Kaoru and Hikaru shout as they point to the umbrella on the floor.

Haruhi decides to find out for herself and attempts to lift the umbrella off the floor. Once she tried though she couldn't even get it off the ground. Takashi and Mitsukuni even gave it a try having only little more success. They couldn't get it off the ground long enough to use it as an umbrella let alone use it like a spear like Ryoga did.

Remembering just who it was that thrown the umbrella caused everyone to turn to the open window in time to see Ranma use a spinning heel kick onto Ryoga's face causing him to stumble to the edge of the window just long enough for Ranma to then tackle him off of the edge and out of the window. The next sound heard from the room was the obvious cry/yell of concern for the one who was defending them from the heavy umbrella tossing Ryoga.

"RANMA!"
