The Encounter
"HUH????" Ranma was very confused. He stood there silently. He wanted to say sorry for not remembering, but looking at those teary eyes of Akane made him just stare back at her and smile. He didn't know what to say to her. Akane was very happy to see Ranma was ok. She just wanted to hug him, and kiss him, and tell him how much she loved him. But the words wouldn't come out. She wanted to say so many things to him right then and there but her mouth was sealed. She couldn't say anything when he was right in front of her. She wanted to be with him, forever and ever... UNTIL THE END OF TIME. Ranma was embarrased to have a girl hugging him like Akane was. But he felt really good to have her by his side. Maybe she could help him remember. After all it was his fiance. After a long pause, Ranma finally said something.
"Uhhh... I am sorry...???" Ranma gave off a huge smile and put his left hand on the back of his head. He wanted to remember her so badly. He wanted to feel loved. He wanted for her to explain what happened to him. As to why he couldn't remember anything at all. There was another long pause.
"This is akward" Ranma said, and then looked down.
"Akane... Ranma had an accident, apparently, and he doesn't really remember a thing." Kasumi said. She walked over to where Akane was and then proceeded to put her right hand on her head. As if petting her. When Akane heard this, she immediately backed from Ranma and blushed. She didn't want to seem like a girly girl. Akane wanted an explanation. She also didn't know what had happened after Ranma left because of the incident. She only knew that he left to Ukyo right after what happened. All of this happened in only one day!
"I'm sorry... Let's go home. I'm tired" Akane suggested and cleared her eyes from the previous tears.
"Yes, that would be a good idea. I think that Ranma will be better off going with you two." Dr Tofu said.
"Thank you Dr Tofu. You have been so nice today." Kasumi said. Then she walked over to where Dr Tofu was and gave him a small kiss on the cheek. Dr Tofu's face was beet red. He was so happy he went back to being the "crazy" Dr Tofu. He started doing some weird dance and then said "No problem Kasumi, anytime! La Lo Le LEE LOOOLIII!!!"
"Dr Tofu, you are soo silly." Kasumi added. And then she gave off a small giggle.
"Ranma, shall we go?" Kasumi asked.
"SShhhuuuurree..." Ranma said still blushing.
So they started walking back towards home. Leaving Dr Tofu huging a tree. Kasumi with her hands in front of her, Akane with both hands on her back. Very shy and embarrased for what happened earlier. She technically showed Ranma what she felt for him. And she didn't really care that she did it. But the fact that Ranma didn't remember a thing was shocking and akward too.
Ranma for some reason went back to his old habit of walking on the fence. Apparently, heart remembers more than brain. And that is something he really liked to do. He loved practicing his balance while walking up on the fence. Yet, he still had both of his hands on his pockets.
"Oh look... it started raining again." Kasumi put her hand with her palm up.
"Yup." Ranma said. Both Akane and Kasumi looked over at Ranma. His voice didn't change, which was weird. And more surprisingly, his form didn't change. He remained male!
"R-Ranma... You didn't change!" Akane said surprised. She quickly analyzed Ranma. From head to toe. Indeed, he was still a male. This really surprised Akane.
"Well, am I supposed ta?" Ranma said and looked down at Akane. Then he jumped down to the street where Akane was. He walked alongside Akane. He wanted to ask her, but he kind of hesitated. Then he finally got enough courage to say what was in his mind.
"Akane... Your' my fiance right?" Ranma asked and smiled. Akane immediately blushed and looked away.
"Well, like one in a million." Akane said hesitantly.
"Well, your de cutest so far..." Ranma said. And then he gave a huge smile. Is this Ranma? Why is he acting this way? He gave a 180 degree turn and just started being outgoing. Nicer in a way. BUT for how LONG?
"OMG OMG OMG!!! What do I do? What do I tell him?" Akane thought. Then she looked back at Ranma who was right next to her.
"Stop being so sarcastic! Ranma!" Akane said still blushing. Her face was completely red. Her expression said it all... She liked the comment Ranma had just made... but she wanted for him to like repeat himself or keep going with the SAME conversation or keep making compliments. But he didn't. He just kept walking silently.
They were getting wet because of the raining. So they walked faster. It started getting windy and the rain started pouring now. The raindrops got heavier and heavier. And the weather was getting more and more intense. This was really strange because it wasn't a typhoon season yet. They finally came about to the house of their house.
TENDO DOJO
"We're here. Ranma I saved a plate for you on the fridge before you left." Kasumi looked at Ranma and then went inside. The lights were off, except for the dining room. Kasumi went straight to her room after saying goodnight to Ranma and Akane.
"Ranma, this is where we live. You and your father Genma have lived here for 2 years now." Akane said and looked at Ranma. She was still surprised to see that he was still a male even after he had been exposed to the rain.
"I'm going upstairs." Akane said. And then looked at Ranma. She turned, but just as she was going to walk away, Ranma grabs her arm with a firm grip. His face was looking down.
"Why did ye do it, Akane?" Ranma said. His face covered in tears. "Why would you break my pride that way? I exposed myself to you. I told you how I feel. What I've always felt, I tried to give you a kiss. That's all I've ever wanted. And all I receive is a..."
"Ranma... stop!!! I'm sorry! I said I was sorry! It wasn't my intention... please stop..." Akane looked back and saw that Ranma was still there.
"What're you talking about?" Ranma said. All was in Akane's head. But her guilt was killing her. She wanted to get those thoughts out of her head, but she couldn't. And what was worse was that she couldn't say anything to Ranma at this point. He wouldn't even remember. None mattered right now.
"Never mind." Akane said. She looked down, and then proceeded to walking back to her room. Ranma started exploring the house, well, not really, just the kitchen. His stomach was really begging for food. He had not eating all day long. He took out a plate that was especially reserved for him. Luckily Genma didn't know about it, or else it wouldn't be there either. He started eating when he heard a dim voice calling for help.
"GET ME DOWN!!!" The voice said. The voice was coming from the tree. It was Happo who apperently was left behind by his students Soun and Genma. Ranma walked over with a whole bread in his mouth. He saw an old little man hanging from a rope in the family tree in the Tendo House. He looked at him and didn't hesitate to bring him down.
"You okay?" Ranma asked.
"Ranma... It is raining!" Happo said. And gave off a huge perverted smile. But Ranma didn't even notice it.
"I know! You should go back t' your house." Ranma said. Like an automatic reaction, Happo went straight to Ranma's chest. But noticed that Ranma was not a girl with the rain. Which dissapointed him. He expected to fall in a soft pair of female breasts. But it didn't happen this way. Instead he aimed right at a muscular chest. A male, muscular chest. Happo started touching and grabbing anyways, he thought that maybe it was just his imagination. And then he realized that it wasn't.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING FREAK!!!???" Ranma asked with a disgusted look in his face.
"What happened? What did you do to Ranma?" Happo said with teary eyes.
"Ain't I Ranma?" Ranma said still with an angry and annoyed tone.
"No! The hot Ranma!" Happo retorted and started rolling on the floor, kicking and punching the floor. "Why are bad things happening to me? WHY???" Happo seemed very sad. "I had a nice bra I wanted for you to try." He said.
Ranma looked at the perverted old man with his eyes wide open. "Whos this guy?" Ranma thought. He didn't understand what was going on. He was more confused now. Why had the old man confused him with a girl?
Even after this, Happo tried to jump on Ranma again. Thinking that it must've been a mistake. Ranma wasn't too happy. In fact, Ranma was furious.
"Get away from ME!!!" Ranma sent Happo flying through space. His anger got to his head once again. And made him glow with an orange aurora. His head started spinning again.
"NOOOOO! It's happening again!" Ranma held his head with both of his hands, and hit the ground quickly. He rolled and moved wildly. Trying to get control of himself again. But it wasn't working.
"YEEEARRRRGHH!!" Ranma was loosing control once again. And then suddenly, another earthquake stroke, waking everyone up. Genma jumped out of his bed and went outside. As he was running downstairs, he noticed that the rain stopped completely. Everything was focused on Ranma. A very dark cloud and a thin mist surrounded the body of Ranma. Genma knew one thing he could do. It wasn't going to be pleasant but someone had to do it. And who better than his father. Genma jumped to try and hit Ranma so that he fell unconsious, making the earthquake stop. When he was inches away from Ranma, Ranma dissapeared.
"What the?" Genma was confused. Ranma had dissapeared right in front of his eyes. Fortunately the earthquake had stopped. Akane, Soun, Nabiki and even Kasumi went outside to where the action was.
"Genma, behind you!" Soun yelled. Immediately Soun looked back and saw Ranma floating about 5 feet in the air.
"Ranma! Don't let the power control you!" Soun yelled. Akane looked at Soun puzzled. Akane didn't know about what had happened or about the story behind this. Akane went near Genma.
"Son I demand you to come down here and apologize!" Genma said. And then his glasses shined. He had a lot of confidence. He didn't know what he was getting himself into.
"Silence measly human! You know nothing about power." Ranma looked at his father with terrifying eyes. And Genma confidence smile dissapeared. He feared his son. Something that wasn't often seen in Genma. Kasumi and the others just stood there. They didn't want to provoke Ranma. They knew that Ranma didn't know what he was doing.
Genma tried to punch Ranma. But didn't even get close to him. Ranma put his hand toward Genma's face. With a tremendous force from his hand he threw Genma back. But Genma got up quickly and attempted to knock his son out again. Ranma landed again on the floor and got ready for Genma's challenge. Genma attempted to sweep kick him. Ranma jumped and flipped back. Genma threw two more punches in Ranma's direction, but Ranma dodged them with ease. And then with lighting speed, Ranma gave Genma 100 punches in only a matter of a second. Knocking Genma back. Genma looked very hurt. But this didn't stop him from coming. He didn't know the true power of Ranma. Or whatever it was that was controling him. But he didn't care. He was always up to a good challenge. And he didn't want for this to get out of control either.
Then an old lady came from the gate. It was Cologne. She saw Ranma and noticed his glow. Shampoo was with her. She seemed happy to see Ranma alive.
"Ranma!!" Shampoo said and ran toward him.
"Stop!" Colgne demanded. "This is not Ranma. He is too dangerous. Keep your distance." Shampoo looked at her and was not convinced. But she followed her orders anyways.
Genma stood up and Ran full speed toward his son, getting ready for anything that was coming.
"Fine..." Ranma said and put his guard up. His glow went to red. A very bright red color. Ranma kicked his father with brute force to the stomach. Making Genma fall unconsious.
"Ranma stop it!" Akane demanded. And went closer to him. She completely ignored the fact that he wasn't being himself.
"HA HA HA HA!" Ranma laughed still looking at Genma's direction. But something happened, when he turned to look at Akane, his mind went crazy. His head started hurting again. Although all of this was happening, he tried to ignore it.
"You just hurt your father you jerk!!!" Akane said "Fine I'll take you out!" Akane put her guard up, and rushed at Ranma. She tossed one of her most powerful punches toward him. Ranma stopped it with his left hand, and paused. He completely stopped and looked at her in the eyes. Their eyes met. Their faces were milimeters away from each other. Their was a short pause. Ranma's red glow went to a baby blue glow. Like the sky. The glow was beautiful. For once, Ranma didn't look evil. He was in front of her... Of Akane Tendo.
"A-Akane..." Ranma said very soft with a faint voice and fell to Akane's arms.
