No Need for a Lunar Brother Chp 7
Ranma told his entire life's tale the Sasami and found out he could not keep much from her. There was something like an aura the radiates from her that made him feel calm and know that what ever he told her she would never use against him. It was the same feeling he got when he often talked to Kasumi, that sense of peace and kindness that he could never feel from any one else. Ranma felt some disappointment at this thought as even his very own mother does not make him feel this way. He watched the various emotions that that played through the young girl face as he told her more about his life and adventures.
Unknown to either of them that just as Ranma began his tale the balcony doors slightly opened a pair of twitching ears near the opening listened as Ranma bared his soul the young future goddess. Ayeka and Ryoko listened intently as Ranma described how he was treated from being taken from his mother at a young age, Jusenkyo, the Tendos, multiple fiancés, and his greatest betrayal. Ayeka was so infuriated of how a member of the Juraian royal family was treated here on Earth that she was tempted to call the emperor and issue some form of punishment or blood feud to the parties the placed Ranma in such misery. Ryoko's reactions were slightly different. She mistook the young half Juraian just like all of those who wronged him did. She clenched her fist making her knuckles crack and arcs of energy were jumping around from it.
Suddenly the balcony door was closed snapping the two out of their stupor. There Washu stood with her hand still on the door handle giving the girls a harsh stare.
"What the hell was that for?" Ryoko yelled at the diminutive redhead.
"Yes Washu, I want to hear the rest so I can make thorough list of crimes against a member of the Juraian royal family." Ayeka said as she got up.
"I think that what Ranma wants us to know is something he'll tell us in his own terms. I think that spying on him was one of the things that he disapproves of and what some of the people Ranma is trying to get away from did to him." Washu said in her annoying all knowing way.
"So what, I just bet you can't wait to strap him down in your lab just to find out how kicked my ass and use him as your guinea pig." Ryoko said as she crossed her arms.
"I think that I have enough info on the guy and I don't want him anywhere near my lab unless he has to be there. Half of the whole thing is still running on auxiliary units and I have to wait for shipments from various sources before I can even begin to run things normally. Now you two but out and leave those two alone." Washu said she began to push the Ryoko and Ayeka away.
It was about a half hour to lunch time when Ranma finished his life's tale to Sasami, there were times were tears were shed and some giggles that escaped when the tales took turns on Ranma's misfortunes; but nonetheless Sasami now fully understands why this young man be here act the ways he does. This young man who she for some reason can't help but want to know more, far from just his exploits and more for just his skills.
"You really have been through a lot huh?" Sasami asked as she hopped up and sat on the balcony railing.
Ranma smirked as he back flipped on to the balcony railing next to her, than sat Indian style next to her.
"I gave you the PG-13 version of a lot the things that happened to me. I couldn't even begin to say the things that went with dealing with Happosia. That guy is total sicko." Ranma said as he unknowingly gave Sasami one of his killer smirks.
A blush crept across Sasami's cheeks as she took one of Ranma's hands to her own. She then guided his hand to her warm cheek and said, "Thank you for telling me all this Ranma, I know that it's sometimes hard talk about things that you know that hurts you. I promise, no matter what I would never do anything like that to you. "
Ok it's been a while since we heard from the peanut gallery but still unbeknownst to the two on the balcony is that their tender little moment was being watched. In the living room on the sofa were Washu, Ayeka, Ryoko and Mihoshi watching intently what was going on the television, the show being of course what Ranma and Sasami were doing on the balcony. A tub of buttered popcorn was on Washu's and Mihoshi's lap. All of them leaned forward as Sasami took Ranma's hand and placed it on her cheek. Washu had the cutest anime eyes look on her face as she hoped so much more to happen. Ayeka had a blush plastered on her face as she watched how her younger sister was maturing before her eyes. Mihoshi turned on the water works as she heard Sasami make a promise to Ranma. Ryoko was shoveling popcorn into her mouth as she was drawn to the scene that was going on not more than fifteen feet from them. Washu spared no expense in the way things were shown on the primitive TV, complete with a swirling trail of cherry blossoms passing by the couple, the romantic music playing in the background and slight blur effects during the close up scenes.
Tenchi having just arrived from the fields walks in on the girls watching TV with such intensity that he felt their auras hit him in waves.
"Hey guys, what's on?" he said as he neared them.
He was knocked over as all four girls tuned to him with index finger on their lips and shushed him. He quickly turned to see what was on the television and saw what was going on and few moments crawled away for safeties sake. He knew from first hand experience when those four get like this, his sanity and well being were better of somewhere else.
Back to the romantic setting that is being watched. Ranma began to blush as he felt the heat emanating from Sasami's cheek and gently took his hand back. He could almost swear that he could've several women groan in displeasure when he did it and quickly dismissed it.
"Thanks Sasami, I know you won't. I'll probably be around long enough till our house in Juban is fixed." He said.
There was slight pang of pain in Sasami's heart as news of him leaving was heard.
"Hey, may be you could come by sometimes and stay for a while. We can go out and see what Juban has to offer. I haven't been there since I was six, I'm pretty sure things are different now and I want to get to know the neighborhood again. It'd be nice to go around with some one." Ranma said.
Sasami's heart quickly skipped a beat as he asked her to see him after he leaves and spend some time with him wandering around his old neighborhood. He wasn't just leaving and never to heard or seen from again, he wanted to spend some time with her to. Sasami could have sworn that she heard some hoots and cheers coming from near by but quickly dismissed it.
"That'd be great. I would often visit auntie Nodoka in Juban till she told me that her house was nearly destroyed sometime ago." She said she hopped off the balcony railing.
"Yeah, that'd be my fault. My so called fiancé's trashed the place when they were trying to get a hold of me after the failed wedding, but that's over with now. Since you been there before maybe you could show me around. I heard that there are a couple of good ice-cream shops there; let's hit a couple when you're around." Ranma asked as he hopped off the balcony and landed near Sasami.
"Sure, it's a date." she cheerfuly said. Sasami was caught off guard when Ranma landed that she tripped face first onto his chest. Ranma placed his hands on her shoulders and gently moved her off his chest matching blushes on their faces.
"Are you…"
The question died out as both could swore that they heard loud cheers were being made as if in their expense. Another momentary catch of each others eye and the two disengaged.
"Oh my, it's nearly lunch time I better go and start preparing it." Sasami said as she left feeling a little too warm for her taste leaving Ranma with his usual trademarked cluless look.
Momentarily...
"I could help. I'm good around the kitchen…"
Ranma's words stopped when he entered the living room from the balcony and noticing a beet red Sasami staring at the floor and tapping the point of her index fingers together. Ranma then notices the crowd in the living room cheering and doing cat calls. Unknown to Ranma the peanut gallery increased by three. Ayeka had a hand on her check but smiling at Sasami and him. Mihoshi was wiping tears from her eyes as she cheered. Ryoko had her arms crossed and had a smirk on her face. Washu was whistling and doing cat calls while her two puppets Washu A & B were throwing confetti. Nodoka hid the smile on her face with a Japanese paper fan. Tenchi was bound and gagged was hanging from on of the arms of the sofa and Kasohito was sitting quietly on one of the single sofas. Ranma was wondering what was going on till his eyes sat upon the TV. There he saw what happened in the balcony. Now it was a freeze frame of when Sasami took his hand and placed in on her cheek, complete with swirling cherry blossoms, romantic music and end credits rolling. He turned away blushing just in time to miss a doctored preview of what the two would look like on a date in Juban complete with an encounter with fuku clad cheerleaders of love and justice.
"I'm going to get lunch started." Sasami said as she dashed for the kitchen.
"I'm gonna do some katas out side." Ranma said as he practically teleported out of the house.
Juban, unknown location:
Jadeite was looking over the latest victims he was drawing negative ki from. These yakuzas were a good source of negative ki but nowhere near the amount of power had he taken from teens. Their energy levels were higher and concentrated.
"Energy is really wasted on the youth," he thought as he drained the last drop of negative ki from one of the yakuzas.
"Well done Jadeite," Came from a feminine voice from the darker side of the alley.
Kurenai materialized from the darkness and walked up to the once dark generals of Beriru. Jadeite admired the orb of negative ki on his hand and nearly mesmerized by the it's appearance of smoke swirling in water.
"What's wrong?" Kurenai asked.
"I feel as if the mere amounts taken from these fools fail to compare to what I use to take from younger sources." He said as he tossed the orb to her.
Kurenai, instead of catching the orb opened a small portal in front of the path of the orb sending it back to the well where it was stored.
"I see you point. ""Energy is wasted on the young."" What do you propose?" She continued.
"I do not know yet. Serenity's brats are still around and I don't want to arouse unneeded attention to us." Jadeite said.
"I might have an idea. Dojos, martial artist, and fighters," Kurenai said.
"What of them?"
"Where else can you find not only an abundance of ki but fighters as well? We need fighters and converting their ki to negative shouldn't be much of a problem. Use them and as they fall drain them." Kurenai said with a grin that hid what she truly intended, for his crimes.
A Taste Of Things Yet To Come:
"Hello, I'll be your tutor. My name is Ami Muzino."
"Sempai!"
"Who's the hunk of beef running on the wall of the school?"
"It's been a while, my love."
"Wait a minute you're the guy my cousin Ukyo is engaged to?"
Welcome true believer and friends. As you can plainly read that this fic is far from over. Life just gets in the way. As I mentioned on the Ra-El fic, the fiancé has been long forgotten. I'll cope, since things can't got the way she wants it, I'm cutting my losses and hope to find someone who can sail thought life with no matter how rough the waters get. Oh well, enough of that hope you enjoy this tidbit and see you on the next chapter. Now, on to the honorable mentions.
Ranko Lina Inverse: About the only thing I don't like is the evil Ranko but at least you changed her name but still it's Ranko. But that could be because of my name that I don't like it. Wait that is the reason I don't like it. Technically it's was never Ranko to begin with. For all intensive purposes Ranko has always been Ranma, unless used differently in other fics. Kurenai was like a bolt out of the blue when I chose her to be one of the main villains of the fic. We never got to see Ranma's evil side before, now we do.
When is Ami going to meet Ranma? So is Ranma going to be Usagi's brother right? And give Ranma his Curse back it so a part of him. Soon, No, and we'll see in that order.
Upgrade: They told off Akane, but she's too stubborn to really get it, and now Sasami learns of Ranma's past. I doubt she'll take it well. I really think that deep down that Ukyo and Shampoo really care about Ranma. It's more than the okinomiyaki cart or the whole tribe thing. Akane deserves to be bitched slapped with the truth. Now is the time that she has to own up to what she think she can do. Now about Sasami, from what I saw on the continuation of the Tenchi OVA called Tenchi Ryo-oh ki! she can kick ass on her own and quite good with a quarter staff. I'm kind off writing her like how I would for Kasumi, that's not say if lines were crossed that she wouldn't go Tsunami and blast people in her way, she makes it so she doesn't have to. I've always though the entire universe would collapse if there were was fic written where Kasumi, Sasami/Tsunami and Belldandy are in at the same time and paired with Ranma… Hold that thought… On my next work of great fiction… You'll just have to wait and see.
Tovath: You seem to be a good writer, but I get so tired of Uberbrat Akane stories. Please read 'In the Lunchroom' by Trimatter. I've read other Ranma/Akane pairings before, but they have neither convinced me or showed me that they belong together. Any abusive relationship always ends badly period. Ranma is so much better than Akane and to be victimized constantly is just plain wrong. It was funny the first season or set of mangas, but to endure it for nine seasons or some 40 mangas later was just redundant. Hell by second or third season alone I'd have chosen Ukyo just to get the hell away from Akane and set up shop somewhere else.
