It was like a normal day for the Saotome family. Ranma got up early and went on her morning run. Ranma might have only have moved back in with her mother, Nodoka and her twin sister, Usagi. But in the time she spent with them was better then the time she spent with her father, Genma for all those years. It took awhile for Ranma to get used to being a girl all the time. But after sometime she didn't mind being a girl. She actually started to enjoy it, even though she wouldn't admit it. Except for the period part. It took awhile but Ranma got used to wearing a bra. She was alright with being a girl. Ranma enjoyed the time she was spending with her sister, Usagi. Even though she had to wake Usagi up everyday except for weekends the only days she is allowed to sleep in.
In Nerima at the Tendo Dojo.
The Tendo's and Genma were seating down at the table eating breakfast.
"Today is the day, Genma. That Ranma finally returns." said Soun
"Maybe! But to be honest I'm kind of hoping it's not." said Genma. Akane was surprised to hear this from Genma.
"What do you mean? Don't you want too unite the schools?"
"Of course I want to unite the schools. Its just if this Ranma. Then why are they saying he is a girl." 'Juban. Why do I have a funny feeling about that place.'
After they were done eating Akane, Nabiki, and Kasumi headed of to school. After lunch they got on a bus to take them to Juban. Once they got off the bus the headed to the Juban High School. They hid behind a corner watching the entrance to see if it was the Ranma they were looking for. The School soon let out and the students started to leave.
"Okay Genma, do you see Ranma yet?" asked Soun
"Not yet." said Genma. They continued to watch as more and more students let the school. Then Ranma and Usagi left the school and Genma recognized her. "There he is. I have found Ranma."
"Where is he?"
Genma pointed to the red haired girl with a pig tail that was walking with a blond haired girl. Genma started to get angry seeing Ranma as a girl. "Why is he in that form?" Genma asked in angry tone. Genma was about to run out and attack Ranma. But Soun stopped him.
"This isn't the place to do that!" Soun whispered a plan in Genma's ear. They started followed Ranma waiting for the blond haired girl to leave. But she never did. Genma was getting tired of waiting and quickly found some cold water. Then she splashed himself and turned into a panda.
As Ranma and Usagi were walking back home. Then Ranma got a feeling and grabbed Usagi and jumped back as Genma in his panda form jumped at them. "Ranma who is it this time?" asked Usagi this feeling like the time that Ryoga attacked.
"It's the old man!" said Ranma
Genma held up a sign. #You're coming with me, boy.#
"Wait! That's dad!" said Usagi a little shocked. Even though Ranma told her and their mom that Genma turns into a panda she was still stun to she him like that.
Genma write on the other side without letters it and once he was done he turned it around. #Who are you calling dad, girl?# Usagi was confused by that. Genma then charged at Ranma a through a punch. Ranma blocked it with her arm. Then Ranma kicked Genma sending him back. Ranma charged at him to get Usagi some dissents from the fight. Ranma and Genma traded blows and they blocked as well. Neither side was giving an inch. They both are determent to win the fight. Ranma wanted to win so she could stay with Usagi and Nodoka. Genma wants to win so he can take Ranma back to Nerima. Both Ranma and Genma was trying to find a way to get something over the other. The two stopped fighting but both were still in a fighting stance. Genma then held up a sign. #I can see your skills are still sharp, boy.#
"Did you think I would stop my training. Not a chance."
#Quit this and came with me, now!#
"I'm never going with you again." Ranma said in anger. Then she charged at Genma. There fight continued. Ranma didn't want Usagi to get caught in this. So Ranma drew the fight away from her. Genma soon relieved that Ranma was drawing him away from Usagi. Genma wondered if he could use this girl to his advantage. He jumped back and ran towards Usagi. Genma grabbed Usagi and held her within one of his arms. "Let her go, pops!" Ranma demanded getting even more angry.
#You must do anything to win. You know that.# Ranma throw a punch and Genma blocked it with the sign. Ranma destroyed the sign.
"Only a coward dose something like this." Then Genma tried to punch Ranma back with his free hand. But Ranma grabbed it and held it. This leaved Genma unable to do anything. Usagi thought quick and stepped on Genma's foot. Genma let go of Usagi. She started to runaway so she would not get caught again. Ranma then throw a punch hitting Genma in the face sending him back and landing on the ground on his back.
"Thanks." said Usagi relieved that she was free. Both Ranma didn't noticed Soun help Genma up and give him a mallet.
"Are you okay..." Then Genma knocked Ranma over the head with the mallet. Ranma was knocked out cold. Genma picked up Ranma and put him over his shoulder as Genma started to runaway. Usagi was feeling a mixed batch of emotions including sadness, worry and fear. It didn't take long for Usagi to lose sight of Genma and Ranma.
Ami, Rei and Luna were at the Hikawa Shrine.
"Where are those two?" asked Rei in an angry tone
"Come on, Rei. It's only been wait for like 20 minutes." said Ami
"I know Ranma like to change out of her school cloths. But It shouldn't take her this long." said Luna
"I bet it's Usagi's fault, that they are late." said Rei. Then Usagi walked up the stairs of the shrine. "Finally you are here. wait, where's Ranma?"
"Usagi, why are you crying?" asked Ami seeing that Usagi is crying a little.
"We were attacked." said Usagi still crying
"What happened to Ranma?" asked Luna
"She was taken."
"Do you know who or at lest what they looked like?" asked Ami
"Yeah, it was our dad."
"Wait!? What!?" asked Rei confused by what Usagi said.
Usagi told Ami, Rei and Luna what happened when Genma attack. "I know what you're going to say I should have done more to help Ranma." said Usagi still crying
"Don't think like that, Usagi." said Ami trying to get her to stop crying.
"Yeah, you're not fighter like Ranma." said Rei
"Ami and Rei right, Usagi." said Luna
Usagi crying started to slow down. "Okay we need to find Ranma and recuse her."
Okay but how? We don't know where he took her?" said Ami
"Ranma said she left our dad in Nerima." said Usagi
"Then we will start looking there tomorrow." said Rei
Usagi started to head home. Once Usagi got home Nodoka noticed that Ranma wasn't with her.
"Usagi where is Ranma?" asked Nadoka worried. They seat at the kitchen table as Usagi told her what happened and that she and her friends were going to check out Nerima tomorrow. "I know there is a friend of Genma's in Nerima. We are going to see if he is there or if he knows where's Ranma." Nadoka got up and walked up to her room. She came out with the family sword wrapped up. They started to head to Nerima.
With Ranma, Genma and Soun. They finally got back to Nerima. Ranma tried a few time to escape from both Genma and Soun. But every time she was stopped by them. To a point were both Genam had carry her on his back. Ranma tried to get out of Genma grasp. Just as they getting closer to the Tendo Dojo. They soon got to the Tendo Dojo. Genma set Ranma down in the dinning area. As Soun got Kasumi, Nabiki and Akane and brought them in to meet Ranma.
"So you're Ranma? It's nice to meet you." said Kasumi
"I told you he was a pervert!" said Akane noticing that Ranma was still in her school uniform.
"Hey, I'm no pervert!" said Ranma angry that Akane called her a pervert.
"Oh, really! Says the guy who is wearing a skirt."
"If you must know. This is school uniform I have to wear this."
"Yeah, if you were a girl."
"Well for your information I am a girl." Genma was a little shocked when he head that Ranma called herself a girl.
"Yeah, right! We, already know you are cursed to turn into a girl."
"And why did you call yourself a girl, boy? You are man not a weak girl." said Genma
"Did you just say that girls are weak." said both Ranma and Akane in anger after what Genma said. Genma was scared by Ranma and Akane.
"Now, now. Let's calm down. Ranma is here now so the engagement can happen. And we already decided that Akane would be you fiancée." Akane was about to say something against it.
"I'm not going to marry her. The old man has no right to arrange this marriage. After all you two just basically kidnapped me." said Ranma
"Wait! You kidnapped him?" asked Nabiki
"Please, father tell me you and Mr. Saotome didn't?" asked Kasumi
"Of course not." said Soun
"Well it sure felt like you kidnapped me." said Ranma
Then Kasumi starterd to show Ranma around the house. There last stop was the room that she will be staying in. "You'll be staying in here with your father." said Kasumi
Ranma entered the room. Ranma figured if she tried to run away Genma would try and stop her.
Genma opened the door and gave Ranma a teapot full of hot water and some cloths he got for him. "Here, so you change." said Genma. Then Genma closed the door giving Ranma some privacy. Ranma looked at the cloths and noticed that they were for her old male form and to big for her. So she just left the room and headed down the stairs and headed to the dinning area to have dinner. "Why didn't you change?"
Ranma took a seat. "Well, because the cloths are to big for me." said Ranma as she picked up the bowl of rice
"Why didn't you just used the hot water that I left and changed back into a guy."
"I told you before that I am a girl."
"And I say you're a pervert." said Akane as she used a teapot and poured boiling hot water over Ranma's head. Everyone expected for Ranma to change into a guy. But she didn't changed. This left everyone there except for Ranma in shock.
"Owww! That's hot! What was that for?" Ranma shouted in pain.
"But you were supposed to turn back into a boy." Akane said still in shock as she dropped the teapot.
"How did this happen? Why can't you change back?" asked Genma
"I don't know why I can't change back. One day when I woke up and couldn't change back." said Ranma lying about possibly not knowing why she could not change back.
Then there was a knock at the door. Kasumi got up and headed towards the door. At the door was Nodoka and Usagi.
"May I help you?" asked Kasumi
"Yes I'm looking for Soun or if possible if Genma Saotome." said Nodoka
"They are here. Come on in please." Both Nodoka and Usagi entered. Kasumi escorted Nodoka and Usagi to where everyone else was at. "Excuse me."
"What is it Kasumi?" asked Soun
"There's a woman here to see you father and Mr. Saotome."
"Well I wonder who it could be?" asked Genma
'I hope it's mom.' thought Ranma
"Let her in." said Soun
Kasumi let Nodoka and Usagi in.
Genma saw that it was Nodoka and started to get scared. "GENMA!" shouted Nodoka in anger. Usagi was starting to get scared. She never saw her mom get this mad before in her life.
"Nodoka! What are you doing here?" asked Genma in fear
"I'm here to get Ranma back."
"Well he is not here at the moment." Genma lied
"Don't lie. I can see that Ranma is sitting right next to you."
"Hey, mom. I'm sorry that you had to come and get me." said Ranma
"Wait. She knows?" asked Genma
"Of course. I have been staying with mom since I left." This made Genma even more nervous.
"It's okay Ranma. I know it wasn't your fault." Nodoka started to glared with anger in her eyes at Genma. "After all you father basically kidnapped you."
"So you guys did kidnapped him. I can see why she is angry." said Nabiki
"Oh, that's only one of the reasons why I am mad at him."
"I wouldn't want to be dad right now." said Usagi
"Well for all we knew, Ranma was on his own." said Soun trying to defend Genma's action. Then Nodoka started to glare at Soun. This got Soun nervous.
"Dad I don't think that is helping." Akane whispered to Soun
"You're probably right." Soun whispered
"I'm guessing we are heading back home, now?" asked Ranma
"Yes, we are Ranma." said Nodoka
"No way, Ranma is staying here with me." said Genma protesting. Nodoka then glared at him. Then Ranma punched Genma over the head sending him to the floor.
"There is no way that I'm staying with you again. I told you I was going back to mom. And that's who I'm going to stay with." said Ranma in angry tone.
Genma got up off the floor. "Oh, no you aren't."
"Now Genma, just because Ranma want to stay with his mom doesn't mean we can't till he is older. Then we can unite the schools." said Soun
"Well you and Genma are free to work together without Ranma. You don't have to marry Ranma off to do that. Genma you know you have no right to set up any arranged marriages." said Nodoka. Then Nodoka, Genma and Soun continue to talk this over.
"What does you mom mean Ranma?" asked Akane
"She made sign a contract saying he can't setup any arranged marriages for me or my sister Usagi." said Ranma
"So our dad had not right to set it up this arranged marriage between you and Ranma." said Usagi
Nodoka and Genma were arguing over who Ranma would stay with.
"Why don't we let Ranma choose who she want to live with." said Nodoka
"Fine! But I know Ranma will choose..." said Genma
"Mom." said Ranma
"What! Why would you choose your mom or me?" Genma said in anger.
"Well for one mom is not trying to marry me off on someone."
"Ranma dose have a point." said Akane
"Now Genma, Ranma made her choose. So respect her choose." said Nodoka with a glare.
"Fine go, see if I care." said Genma still angry at Ranma.
Then soon Ranma, Usagi and Nodoka left the Tendo Dojo and started to head back to Juban.
The next day
Ami meet up with Usagi once she got too school. "Usagi. Rei and I were thinking that we might need some help. So we can recuse Ranma." said Ami
"Oh, we don't need to recuse Ranma an more." said Usagi as Ranma and Ryoga headed to towards school.
"I took my eyes of you for one second and you go the wrong way." said Ranma
"Sorry." said Ryoga with a blush.
Ami noticed Ranma. "I thought you were kidnapped Ranma?" asked Ami confused
"Wait! You were kidnapped!" said Ryoga in a shocked tone
"Yeah, but don't worry. After all I'm here now." said Ranma
"Well at lest you're okay."
