A/N: Burning frost has given me permission to take over that is all.
Hi everyone I'm back.
Don't worry some of the scenes will happen in present time meaning when Ranma is not writing anything at all as it is happening to him right at that moment.
NOTE Ranma's Jusenkyo curse is non-existent. If you don't like it then I apologize, for your lack of originality. Click back anytime you wish.
Also the Amazons' names will be spelled in the English interpretations of their names.
I.e. Shanpu = Shampoo
So note that although I am using English spelling I want readers to sound it out as Japanese would. (I will make a list of how to pronounce each of their names at the end of the chapter.
As a reminder Reiko is Ryouga in girl form

Ranma was calmly walking down the street lazily licking his ice cream. 'What to do, what to do.' He mused to himself having found himself with plenty of free time as everyone else had something important to do. 'Nothing new to write about either, even the Amazons are pretty routine now.' His thoughts continued as his ears picked up the sounds of a fight. "What's that?" he asked aloud as he hopped onto the wall.
What he saw was surprising to say the least. "Uh…girls in leotards being attacked by another girl in a leotard?" he questioned himself as he idly watched as the one in green seemed to be bullying the three in yellow which he recognized as Furinkan uniforms. Sighing to himself he jumped down and intercepted the ribbon the girl had been attacking them with. "Alright that's enough, you've already won." He stated with a small frown.
The girl frowned at being stopped so easily "Who are you to tell me what to do Peasant?" she barked as she tugged her ribbon out of his loose grasp.
Ranma shrugged his shoulders as he finished his ice cream "I'm just a guy who can't stand seeing my classmates being picked on." He admitted as he placed his hands behind his back. "So I suggest you leave."
The girl scowled as she started to twirl her ribbon around as black rose petals started floating around. Clicking her tongue in annoyance she jumped away "Fine you can have your way for now Peasant! But be warned for you have angered Kodachi the black rose! HO, HO, HO, HO, HO!"
The three girls watched her leave with glares only to develop into tears as they started crying. Ranma couldn't help it as he bent over to offer his aid. "There, there don't cry."
With Ranma's aid the three girls made their way to the Tendo Dojo hoping to get Akane to help them with the crazy girl as Ranma aptly described Kodachi.
"Akane you got to help us!" they wiled as they clutched the youngest Tendo's sleeves. "Our match against St. Bacchus School for Girls for the Martial arts Rhythmic Gymnastics tournament is in a week!"
Ranma scratched the side of his head in confusion "Rhythmic Gymnastics martial art?" he asked unsurely as he leaned against the wall. "Correct me if I'm wrong…but…doesn't that need someone who's graceful?"
Akane snarled at him "Are you saying I'm not graceful?" she roared in challenge as she stood threateningly.
Ranma calmly picked his ear "Yeah…pretty much." He answered honestly "You're more suited for something around normal martial arts, like Karate." He continued ignoring the visible aura of anger beginning to surround Akane.
"As much as I don't want to admit it, I'm afraid he's right Akane-san." Reiko stated as she walked into the room. "Rhythmic Gymnastics requires a certain…grace to it." She continued as she leaned against the wall opposite of Ranma.
"Reiko! Not you to!" Akane moaned in frustration "Why doesn't anyone think I can do graceful huh?" she asked as she looked between the two.
Ranma looked away as did Reiko causing the three Furinkan girls to sweat drop. Reiko eventually coughed to get everyone's attention "Well…I was going to offer my assistance in this matter it's the least I can do to repay the Tendos' kindness to me." She stated as she turned and began to walk away. "I'll be in the dojo practicing." She turned left and started walking down the hall.
"Oi Reiko that's the wrong way!" Ranma called out as he poked his head out the door. The girls who couldn't see past Ranma heard the quick tapping of Reiko's footsteps as she rushed the other way "Reiko, that's the closet!" Ranma called out as he exited the room "If you're going to rush around so much then I'm just going to have to walk you down there myself! Geez you get lost so easily!"
"Are we going to be okay?" the three girls asked in unison as they cautiously followed Ranma and Reiko down into the dojo.
Reiko standing in a standard leotard was glancing over each item that had been provided to her. "Hey you sure you can do this?" Ranma asked in some concern "I mean…you aren't what I would call the epitome of grace you know?"
Reiko scoffed as she gripped a ribbon "You underestimate me!" she yelled as she snapped it at him forcing Ranma to dodge out of the way less he get hit. "In Martial arts Rhythmic Gymnastics you are not allowed to physically touch your opponent meaning tools only!" she called out as she rolled to the side sprang to her feet while simultaneously grabbing a hoop which she launched at Ranma landing in a perfect pose. "One must have the grace of a gymnast and the prowess of a martial artist to excel at this."
Akane and the girls stared in wonder at Reiko who proceeded to use the multitudes of tools to her own advantage forcing Ranma to dance around the dojo opting to simply dodge to let Reiko get her practice. "By the way where'd you learn all this?" he asked mid-jump.
Reiko glanced away seemingly lost in thought for a few seconds "Okaa-san taught it to me when I was ten." She stated before resuming the practice. Everyone was so distracted by the practice that none of them noticed a girl slip away from behind a tree.
"Those Furinkan girls actually found a replacement?" she wondered to herself as she fled "I have to warn Kodachi-sama!"
"WHAT?" Kodachi screamed as she turned her full attention to her messenger. "Those Furinkan harlots actually found a decent replacement?"
"Yes Kodachi-sama her name is Reiko and she's living at the Tendo dojo."
Kodachi bit her finger nail in irritation "Those Peasants! Very well I'll deal with them myself!" she all but screamed as she opened up her locker and began to dig around the various weapons before picking out a giant mallet. "This will do."
Ranma sighed as he handed Reiko a blanket "You sure you'll be fine in here?" he asked for the third time knowing full well that Reiko might get lost just by heading to the restroom.
"I'll be fine you jackass!" Reiko barked as she accepted the blanket and went to sleep. "Just need Akane-san's help getting to the dining room later." She mumbled softly though Ranma still heard her.
Smirking to himself Ranma quietly made his way out of the dojo. Shaking his head he idly glanced to the rooftops and stared. Hanging on the ceiling was the girl from earlier wearing a leotard, holding a mallet in her hand and a black rose in her mouth. "Uh…can I help you?" he asked warily.
Kodachi narrowed her eyes "You'll tell me where the harlot named Reiko is right now or you will die." She threatened as she dropped down onto the floor.
Ranma blinked in surprise as he slowly brought his hands up "Alright, alright no need to get…so…ANGRY!" he roared as he lashed out with his foot faster than she could blink knocking her into the yard. "There won't be any sabotage going on tonight Kodachi." Ranma stated coldly as he stared her down.
Kodachi grinned like a maniac as she regarded him. "You, a commoner think to stand on the level of one such as I?" she asked in her irritably shrill voice. "HO, HO, HO! Don't make me laugh peasant!"
Ranma sighed in irritation "Well…at least she ain't a pervert…though she is a crazy bitch…" he rubbed his forehead in frustration "I just can't win can I?" he mused to himself as he casually knocked Kodachi away. "Leave…you ain't got shit on me." He ordered as he stared her down causing Kodachi to flinch.
Kodachi grimaced as she leapt onto the wall "Very well Peasant you win this round but I will crush that Harlot of yours!" Laughing obnoxiously she began to twirl her ribbon sending out multitudes of black rose petals littering the floor with her plants.
Ranma stared at the garden in grief. "Great…now I have to clean this…" he mumbled sadly as he got the broom and began to sweep. "Hey…what's this?" he wondered as he picked up a bouquet of Roses "Roses…?" he asked himself as he sniffed them. There was a sudden 'Poof' as the flowers exploded causing Ranma to inhale some of the resulting powder. "Crap!" he swore as he felt the effects beginning to take effect. "Paralysis…pow…der" he slurred as he collapsed in a heap his body rigid in it's shock.
When morning came along Akane was treated to the odd sight of Ranma lying in the middle of the garden in an odd position "Ranma…what are you doing?" she asked slowly as if she were concerned for his mental health.
Ranma grunted in effort still unable to move. "Ko…da…chi…" he managed to say angrily as he tried to move his head. "Help…me…" he continued in his strained voice.
Akane frowned as she walked towards the dojo door. "Hold on let me get Reiko, I don't think I can drag you into the house on my own…well not safely anyways." Walking into the dojo Ranma could hear her waking Reiko up who was notorious for being a heavy sleeper.
Slowly Reiko poked her head out the door. "Ranma?" she asked unsurely as she noticed his downed form. "Really paralysis powder?" she asked as she walked over and hefted Ranma onto her shoulders "Must be some strong shit if you're still out of it." She mused aloud as she followed Akane into the house. "Some water will fix you right up." She continued as she set him down next to a bewildered Nabiki.
Kasumi immediately understood the wanted object and offered Reiko some water. Reiko paused as a grin formed on her face. "Hey Nabiki Ranma needs this water to flush his system but it's dangerous to just pour it into his mouth right now. So I need you to take the water into your own mouth and push it down his throat." Reiko's grin never wavered even as Ranma's temper flared.
Nabiki immediately caught on as she eagerly grasped the glass. "Oh! Thank you Reiko-chan I'll give you a big discount the next time you need my help!" she mentioned as she poured a little water into her mouth before leaning over Ranma's prone form.
Ranma wanted to move, he really did, but he couldn't so he watched in fearful anxiousness as her lips descended on him. At the initial contact he, if possible, stiffened even more. Only when the water started flowing down his throat did he manage to relax a little bit. "Hey I think I'm good!" he stated eagerly as he tried to move. "Guess not…" he mumbled in disappointment when he realized he still couldn't move.
DING DONG
Kasumi stood up and gracefully made her way to the door "Coming!" she called out as she walked out of everyone's view.
Nabiki took the time to pour another portion of water into her mouth and began to lean over when Kasumi and their guest appeared. "Nabiki…what are you doing?" Ukyo asked lightly as she watched the two in interest. "I think what you're doing could be considered as sexual harassment." She continued as she moved over to sit next to him.
Ranma tried to smile in thanks the paralysis preventing him from actually doing so. "Thanks Ucchan…I knew Nabiki was a pervert." He stated as his eyes shifted over to Nabiki.
If anything she took it in stride as she leaned over anyways. Planting her lips on his own she gently pushed the water into his mouth. "Well…then I guess this constitutes as sexual harassment as well then?" she asked amusedly as she lay on top of him. After all it's unwanted contact right?" she continued as she ran a finger over his chest. "Can't wait for the honeymoon she stated perversely with a small giggle as a blush started to cover her face.
Ranma frowned as he moved his hands around with some difficulty "freaking pervert" he mumbled in distaste as he tried to push her away.
Nabiki grinned as everyone watched in amusement "Aw…I love you too Ranma-kun!" she giggled as she kissed him on the cheek.
End
I hope everyone liked it even though it was really short. Ok now that Ranma is aware of Kodachi's existence we will start going into the craziness that defines Ranma's life starting with the gymnastics competition.
