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.

As a reminder Reiko is Ryouga in girl form

Disclaimer: I give all claims to Rumiko Takahashi


Reiko let out a yelp of pain as the spatula made contact with her face "What the fuck!" she screamed as she held her bleeding nose. "What was that for?" she screeched once able to sit up.

"What the hell do you think your doing to Ran-chan?" Ukyo countered as she pointed at the laid out boy. "What the hell did you do to him?" she accused loudly nearly foaming at the mouth in her anger.

"I carried him home! It's not my fault he went into shock after some crazy store clerk shoved her tongue down his throat!" Reiko roared as she butted heads with Ukyo who was snarling in fury at the other girl.

Nabiki simply stared at Ranma's body with a small blush and a bloody nose on her face. "Nice abs…" she muttered as she stared at her fiancé in a dreamlike state as she took a seat next to him and continued to stare. Slowly Nabiki reached out with her hand and began to rub Ranma's bare chest a perverted grin starting to work its way onto her face as she rubbed her hands against him.

Ukyo and Reiko, who had been too busy arguing to notice Nabiki's actions, turned their heads with a shout "What do you think Nabiki!" they both shouted at the same time only to pause seeing what Nabiki was doing. "Hey that's not fair Nabiki!" Ukyo shouted as she made her way over and proceeded to do the same as the middle Tendo Daughter.

Reiko palmed her face "You two…" she muttered in exasperation as Kasumi walked into the room. "Oh Kasumi, thank you." She stated as she accepted the kettle of hot water from the older Daughter. Pouring the contents over her head Ryouga sighed as he felt the transformation take place. "So good to be a guy again!" he announced loudly as he stretched his arms.

PFFT!

Ryouga snapped his head towards the source only to see Ukyo desperately trying to hold in her laughter. "What's so funny?" he asked curiously

In the end Ukyo couldn't hold it in any longer and began to laugh hysterically as she pointed at Ryouga. Many times she tried to stop and say something but every time she'd look at him and dissolve into another laughing fit.

Ryouga confused by her actions decided to look down and screamed "FUCK I'M STILL IN A DRESS!" he wailed as he grabbed his bag and rushed from the room in order to change.

Kasumi blinked in surprise "Oh my I hope he doesn't get lost." She muttered softly as she watched Ryouga run off. Turning back towards the trio she placed her hands on her hips "Now what are you two doing to poor Ranma-kun?" she asked admonishingly.

The two younger girls wilted under her gaze and left Ranma alone in order to sit in Seiza position before the eldest of the three sisters. "We're sorry Kasumi." They both said with their heads bowed.

Kasumi sighed "Nabiki-chan go and clean your room and Ukyo-san please go with her." She ordered as she folded her arms. "I'm disappointed in your lack of control Nabiki-chan." Kasumi informed the two as they left to do as they were told.

Nabiki hung her head in shame "I'm sorry Kasumi-nee-chan" she apologized as she left the room.

Kasumi shook her head "Really now those girls." She mumbled under her breath as she glanced at Ranma. Kneeling next to him Kasumi gently slapped his cheek. "Wake up Ranma-kun you're home." Stirring a bit Ranma groaned as he slowly sat up and shook his head.

"What happened?" he asked wearily as he looked around the room "Where am I?"

Kasumi smiled "You're at the Tendo Dojo Ranma-kun. How are you feeling?" she asked as she handed him a spare shirt she had grabbed earlier. "When Ryouga-kun brought you in you were already half naked."

Ranma blinked in surprise as he put on the shirt. "Uh thanks." He muttered unsurely "So…what did I miss?" he asked looking around noticing that the two of them were the only ones around.

Kasumi giggled "Oh nothing special." She replied easily as she smiled warmly at the pig-tailed martial artist. "Now just wait while I finish making dinner." Kasumi continued as she stood up and walked away.

Ranma nodded his head as he watched her leave before looking down at his chest. "What did I miss?" he wondered aloud as he looked around once more. "And where the hell is everyone?"

"I'm home!" Akane shouted from the entrance causing Ranma to palm his face.

"As soon as I ask someone shows up right?" he groaned at his own luck. "Welcome home!" he shouted in response as he sat up as Akane walked into the room.

"Where is everyone else?" Akane asked looking around. "And why aren't you with Nabiki-nee-chan?" Akane's tone turned accusatory as she rolled up her sleeve.

"How the hell should I know I just woke up! Besides, Kasumi told me to wait for dinner to be ready." He responded angrily as he glared at Akane who glared right back.

Akane growled as she stomped towards him "I don't like your tone Ranma!" she shouted as she got in his face.

"Yeah well I don't like yours either!" Ranma countered as he pushed her away from him. "So stop bugging me and go find Nabiki!" he suddenly hopped over her head and jumped out into the yard before jumping up onto the roof. "Stupid macho chick." Ranma muttered disdainfully as he sat on the roof in thought.

"Ran-chan?" Ukyo asked as she stepped onto the roof. "What are you doing up here?" she asked as she sat next to him.

Ranma glanced at her before looking up at the clouds. "Just thinking." He mumbled softly "Akane is pushing me to be with Nabiki again." He continued after a moment's silence. "I blew up on her and came up here." He conceded as he lay down on the roof.

Ukyo giggled "Sounds like you have a lot on your mind." She pointed out with a smile as she gazed at the rolling clouds. "Want to talk about them?" she asked turning her attention onto Ranma who had turned his gaze onto her.

Ranma thought about it. "Nah." He decided as he turned back towards the sky, "I'll figure something out on my own." He explained to her after she pressed for answers. "Besides just because her sister tells me to, doesn't mean I will marry Nabiki."

Ukyo smiled "Yeah because you might marry me." She pointed out with a grin causing Ranma to blink in surprise before he chuckled. "There's that I suppose." He admitted cheerfully as he watched the clouds. "Just…why does everyone want to marry me?" he asked as he folded his arms behind his head. "I mean seriously…I know I'm super awesome but what else?"

Ukyo shrugged her shoulders "I don't know Ran-chan…but there is just something so…alluring." She tried to explain as she used her hands to emphasize her points. "It's like…you're something girls have always wanted or something like that." She continued as Ranma listened thoughtfully.

"You know that makes no sense whatsoever." He pointed out causing her to grumble as she used her spatula to hit him on the nose.

"Jerk." She mumbled as he rubbed his nose in pain.

Ranma idly rubbed his nose some more as he turned away from her. "Hey what's that?" he wondered as he sat up to take a better look at something. Squinting his eyes they suddenly widened as they realized what it was. "Look out!" he shouted as he jumped to the side avoiding the iron net that suddenly engulfed where he had just been sitting Ukyo having managed to jump out of the way.

"Airen!" Ranma groaned as he turned tail and ran "Why is it always you?" he screamed as he ran away from Shampoo and her Amazon colleagues

"Airen wait!" Shampoo shouted as she chased after him. "Shampoo only want cozy time!" she cried as the group quickly disappeared from Ukyo's sight. Slumping to the ground Ukyo lightly shook her head "What the hell is going on?" she asked as the shouts of "Wait" and similar orders floated to her ears.

"Ukyo, do you know where Ranma is?" Nabiki called out as she stuck her head out the window. "I wanted to spend some time with him!"

Ukyo glanced down at the Tendo daughter "He ran off being chased by some crazy women." She replied pointing in the general direction he had run off in. "What was that all about anyways?"

Nabiki scowled "Amazon warriors from China." She responded angrily "They want Ranma for themselves." Scowling Nabiki pulled her head back into the window prompting Ukyo to jump off the roof as she entered through Nabiki's still open window.

"How'd this happen?" Ukyo asked curiously "I mean I thought the Amazons would hate men."

Nabiki frowned as she started to inform Ukyo about what she knew of the Amazon tribe. Once she had finished Nabiki folded her arms and sat down on the bed. "Now we wait for him to lose them and return." She declared as she glared at the wall.

Ukyo frowned as well. "You know…they seem really…stupid." She stated after a moment's pause. "I mean, how exactly do you plan to force someone stronger than you to marry you?" she questioned as she held a finger in the air to illustrate her point.

Nabiki shook her head "Hell if I know." She muttered angrily her inability to calm down was attributed to the lack of Ranma's presence by Ukyo who lightly patted the girl on the back.

"I'm sure he'll be fine." Ukyo stated in an attempt to comfort the not so obviously distressed Nabiki.

Ranma shook his head in annoyance as he idly wrung out his clothing which had gotten wet after jumping into the canal in order to escape from Shampoo and company. "She's getting even more annoying." He muttered to himself as he tried to wring out the water in his clothing. "I don't even have a curse like Oyaji so why did I decide to jump into the water?" he wondered aloud as he attempted to dry himself off.

Giving up trying to find a reason Ranma slowly made his way out of the canal and onto the normal sidewalk. Glancing around for his pursuers he nodded upon seeing none as he made his way back towards the dojo opting to take the long way rather than the roofs where he might be seen.

"How the hell do I get myself into these messes?" Ranma wondered to himself as he walked slowly taking his time to allow himself to dry off. "I mean I don't try to get their attention but it's like they just gravitate towards me or something." He pointedly ignored all of the staring women whom he passed by without a second glance. As he walked through an alley way he muttered "I don't get why women like me so much."

"Girls like a strong man to hold them." A voice interrupted his thoughts. Spinning around Ranma blanched seeing a red haired girl who didn't look much older than him sitting on a motorcycle with a fox like grin on her face. She was wearing a black leather jacket, a red T-shirt underneath, blue jeans and a pair of black leather boots. "Name's Kurokami Shizuka and I couldn't help but overhear your little monologue there."

Ranma stared at her a bit before shifting to face her. "Saotome Ranma, what do you want?" he asked after introducing himself.

"A sweetheart" she answered honestly "Many girls want a man who can hold them safely in his arms, you seem to fit that bill rather nicely don't you think?" she stated continuing on her explanation to Ranma's question. "Of course there are exceptions, and sometimes girls hide what they want for whatever reasons…but I know what I want…" she got off her bike revealing to Ranma that she was actually taller than him. Slowly she walked forwards a small sway in her hips as she drew closer to him. Subconsciously he moved away from her, but he hit a wall and could not retreat any further. Shizuka smiled as she stood in front of him. "I'm one of those girls who wants a man whose arms she can curl up in."

Ranma suddenly had a bad feeling in his gut. "Me?" he asked weakly as tears started flowing down his face. "Why me?" he muttered dejectedly as she nodded and embraced him. Suddenly Ranma tensed as he grabbed hold of Shizuka's waist and jumped out of the way just as a metal chain struck where they used to be. "Who are you?" Ranma asked tersely gazing at the man who had walked into the alley.

Shizuka growled upon seeing him "he's my creepy stalker." She explained loathing and disgust in her tone. "He thinks he owns me just because I dated him once." Turning on the man she yelled "Piss off Daigoro I ain't your woman!"

"The hell you ain't Bitch, you're mine!" he screamed twirling his chain around menacingly. "Listen brat give me my woman and I won't hurt you!" he threatened causing Ranma's eyes to narrow.

"So it's like that eh?" he mumbled slowly as he set Shizuka down and moved in front of her. "May not like her like that but I can't sit still while someone like you is threatening her, you know?" he asked as he cracked his knuckles in anticipation. "I haven't beaten down a thug in a while, so this should be fun."

The man roared in anger "Don't fuck with me kid!" he shouted as she charged forward waving his chain like a madman.

Ranma snorted "Too easy" he mumbled as he dropped to the floor and lashed out with his right foot causing the man to stumble in pain. Capitalizing on the moment Ranma suddenly curled onto his arms and pushed forward driving his feet into the man's chin sending him flying into a pile of garbage nearby. Dusting his hands off Ranma scowled "Don't show your face around here again."

Shizuka smiled as she tapped Ranma on the shoulder causing him to turn towards her. "Thanks for looking out for me Saotome." Ranma ignored the lack of honorifics having never really liked them anyways. "I don't think he'll be bothering me anytime soon after that."

Ranma smiled and rubbed the back of his head "It was nothing I don't like people who try to force others to do things they don't like. You can just call me Ranma" he added as an after thought.

The biker smiled "Then you can call me Shizuka." She replied with a grin. Slowly Shizuka embraced Ranma again and leaned into him sighing contently even though Ranma was at a lost on what to do. "You really are a nice guy aren't you?" she asked noting he hadn't shoved her away.

Ranma blushed as he steadied himself before lightly separating from her. "Well…you aren't trying to grab me or anything so I'm not against it…but…" he paused trying to find the words.

"You don't know me that well." Shizuka finished for him, already having an idea for Ranma's line of thinking. "That can be fixed." She stated with a smile.

Ranma smiled "You're one of the only girls who hasn't tried to rip off my clothing as fast as possible." He admitted causing Shizuka to giggle. "I think we could be friends at the least."

Shizuka sighed but conceded that it was still a little early for romance. "I guess that'll have to do." She mumbled disappointedly. "Anyways where are you heading? I can give you a lift."

Ranma glanced at her bike. "How would that work?" he wondered seeing no side car for a passenger.

Shizuka smirked as she got on her bike. "Hop on!" she shouted patting the seat behind her as she turned on the engine. Blushing Ranma made to deny but Shizuka cut him off "Don't worry ain't nothing perverted about it just hold onto me so you don't fall off!" she shouted over the roar of her engine. Face still red Ranma climbed onto the bike and gripped Shizuka's waist as she started to move. "Just point me in the right direction!" Shizuka called out as she started driving.

Kasumi along with the rest of the household perked their ears as the sounds of a motorcycle sounded near the door. "I wonder who that could be." She said aloud as she washed her hands and made her way towards the door. Opening the door she saw Ranma hop off the bike and wave towards the driver who waved back before speeding off. "Welcome back Ranma-kun who was that?" Kasumi asked gently a smile on her face.

Ranma smiled "Oh her? She was a friend I met in the city." He replied honestly causing Kasumi to smile "Helped her out with a problem she was having and she offered me a ride home.

Kasumi's smile widened "I'm glad you're making friends Ranma-kun is she nice?" she continued to ask as she invited Ranma into the house.

Ranma nodded his head "Yeah she was nice."


End

Sorry it took so long but I was busy with school and other things…like video games :P

Anyways I hope you liked it. The idea for Kurokami Shizuka was completely random, the idea for a girl in Ranma's life who likes him but isn't aggressive in her pursuit seemed like a good idea but all of the girls from the Ranma series are aggressive, so I made my own character. I actually thought of her name after making up her appearance since I had her wearing mostly black a name with the word black in it came to mind hence "Kurokami" or "black god" was chosen Shizuka was chosen because well…it's a common Japanese name for girls.

Anyways poll is still up so take a look if you haven't already. And see you next time.
