AN: Sorry for the incredibly long delay.

--- Three weeks after the events of the last chapter ---

"Calm down honey and tell me what the matter is." The father said as he poured himself some liquor. Nothing like some sake after a hard day's work.

The young girl fidgeted a little, "Well…uh dad…you see, it's like this…I'm pregnant."

The man nodded sagely, "Ah, I see. You're pregnant." He took a sip of his drink, "Pfffffffftttt! YOU'RE WHAT?"

"I'm pregnant…"

"You…then that means…you and he, did…" There were times where he was lenient with his daughter. Even finally letting his daughter be with another boy after all she was nearly eighteen. But then there are certain limits to even those things. And that boy just crossed the line.

"Uh, dad where you going?"

The said father ran towards the master bedroom. When he re-emerged a few seconds later, he was cradling an elephant gun.

"I'LL CASTRATE THAT #$&$#!"

"DAD! Please don't!" The girl wailed, "I don't want my child to be fatherless!"

"Who said anything about killing? I'll just make sure he'll only father one child!"

The girl grew pale. If her father succeeded, then all her honeymoon plans and all those kama-sutra books were going to be useless. "MOM! PLEASE HELP ME HERE!"

The mother could only sigh, "Sorry dear…but this time…I'll have to agree with your father."

"CHIBA MAMORU! BECAUSE OF YOU I HAVE SEEN HELL!" With that battle cry he ran outside heading straight for the said young man's apartment. Good thing his daughter kept her boyfriend's address posted on the refrigerator otherwise he'll end roaming the streets lost.

The girl made a dash for the telephone hoping she could warn her boyfriend, only to find herself being tripped by her mother. "Sorry dear. It's for your own good."

"But...how am I supposed to enjoy marriage if my future husband cannot be manly to me…WAAHHHHHHH!"

Hotaru blinked at her friend's confession. "You mean…the reason why you're an only child was…" Ever since that fateful day they all heard Ami was pregnant, Hotaru and Chibi-Usa had been hanging around quite often, mostly because the pink-haired girl was avoiding the explicit questioning of the remaining inners. (Venus and Jupiter comes into mind)

Before Chibi-Usa could answer, both girls heard a gunshot going off in the distance. Hotaru's cheek suddenly had that green tinge of color. Chibi-Usa looked down on her watch (especially gifted by Sailor Pluto). "Sigh, right on schedule…"

"But, but…" Hotaru stammered.

"I know what you're going to say…why I didn't even try stopping it?" Hotaru nodded. "Well, Puu said it might cause a paradox or something and might ripple to the future."

"Oh…I see. You're placing the importance of Crystal Tokyo before anything else."

Chibi-Usa turned to regard her best friend, "Heck no! If I had any other sibling, as Puu said I might have had, they'll steal my fiancé away from me!"

Hotaru face faulted. "Err…I guess that makes sense…I think…."

Ranma was thankful this time around as it was the safe period for two specific girls. (Or so he was told.) His Uncle Frank just gave a friendly slap on the back saying, "You take care of my little girl now, alright." Anrui was of similar stature, even calling Ryoume and telling of the 'good news' much to Ranma's surprise. He had thought he would get hell for sleeping with Meia and Kirika but apparently…they took it all a stride. He wondered why (Daisuke and Hiroshi would have bopped him on the head for even thinking of looking a gift horse in the mouth).

And the girls, well, being cousins they did get along very well. The four even made an alliance to stop other girls from hitting on Ranma, particularly a crazy ribbon girl, a spatula-wielding chef, and an energetic bundle of hair care product.

It was past noon and Ranma was lying in bed naked, in Meia's room because it had the biggest bed aside from the master bedroom, with four equally naked girls cuddling to him. He took note that the girls were all asleep…exhausted, as he was.

Akane had dubbed this 'The Grand Rodeo Ride.' After all they keep referring to a term, "Hey it's my turn to ride the horse!" Or, "Ride 'em cowboy!" (You can basically guess who the horse was, and how they mount the said horse) Both her and Meia seemed to compete who could outlast, out-scream, 'out-cum' the other. 'Feels like I'm in a survivor series…just hope I do survive this….' Ranma thought to himself. (And Nodoka is hoping for the grand prize: "Grandchildren!" Lots of them.)

Kirika and Ami were a bit more 'conservative.' Unlike Akane and Meia who seems to enjoy it rough and hard, the latter two preferred the soft and gentle approach. That is if you could call something that moves like a 'jackhammer' gentle and soft. Though they weren't complaining.

Ranma then noticed Akane and Meia waking from their short nap. The look from their eyes is all what he needed to know what's coming up next and sighed, 'I guess its round two on the rodeo….' Oh how right he was. It was redefining the phrase, 'Shake your world.'

"Hey Shampoo are you sure this were Ranchan and that hussy went to?" Ukyou asked while overlooking the serene view of the Hokkaido Mountains.

Her companion was re-reading her map, "According to man we met back in Shibuya, he saw red-hair girl and blue-hair girl say they visit Sapporo."

Ukyou grunted, "Well, if they're here we'll find them."

Shampoo pulled out her bonboris, "Shampoo teach kitchen destroyer not steal airen!"

"You and me sugar. Now come on, times a wasting."

And watching from the shadows were two women cough, ahem…I meant men.

"I must admit Tsubasa-san…you clearly fooled both Shampoo-san and Ukyou-sama very easily back there in Shibuya." Konatsu said as they watch the two girls ran-off towards Sapporo. Since Ukyou had rarely seen Tsubasa wore masculine clothes (much rarer than Konatsu himself), she didn't even recognize him.

"I'll do anything for Ukyou-sama, if this helps her getting over that Saotome guy I'm more than willing to help." 'Then she'll finally recognize my love!' He cleared his throat, "By the way, where did Mousse go to?"

"He thought he saw Ryouga-san back there and thought he'd give him more wrong information about Ranma-san's location."

"Oh…wait a minute…Ryouga usually gets lost when he gets the right information…does that mean when he receives the wrong direction he…"

Both men (though if you ask passers-by they will say these two are definitely female) cursed, "OH SHIT!" And ran towards where Mousse supposedly saw Ryouga.

Though the thought that the information Nabiki gave them was incorrect never occurred to them. After all Nabiki's information was almost always accurate. 'Almost' being the word.

Dr. Mizuno just stared at the medical charts handed to her just a few moments ago, "He was shot in the…"

Her fellow colleague, a male doctor, nodded sympathetically. "Yup, right where the 'family jewels' are…err, make that were."

"Oh, my!"

---

"Sorry Mamoru, but some sacrifices are to be made for the sake of the future." Setsuna said, though her face was never frowning as she said that. Instead she raised her wine glass, "To the future!"

Another wine glass made a clinked with Setsuna's.

"And to Ranma!" Urd added before she and Setsuna downed their drinks in one gulp. Then pouring some more wine for another shot.

"So…" The time guardian began, "What's next on your agenda regarding Ranma?"

Urd smirked, "Oh, you'll see…"

---

And again Ranma felt the foreboding doom just around the corner. Though it was soon lost to the sensations of Meia 'riding' him like the horse that is his namesake. Akane stood by waiting her turn while keeping herself 'busy', and Ami and Kirika where playing announcers in their rodeo tournament.

"YEE-HAW!"
