Disclaimer: I don't own Ranma ½, it is owned by Rumiko Takahashi. I don't own anything. This is just for fun.

A/N: This took longer then it should have been to complete. Life just kept making me busier so I had to put this aside to do those things. And I still have Overwork tomorrow on a freaking Sunday. The money better be worth it. Well, enjoy the story.


3rd POV:

Hibiki Residence

The girls had just finished soaking in the furo and were just finished drying themselves off getting dressed about to get ready for bed.

"I really enjoyed our talk Ryoko. You are a good mix of both Ryuho and Krista. Though more of your father but I can see a lot of Krista personality sipping in the more relaxed you are as a girl." Said Nodoka.

"Uh thank you, aunty. So aunty what are you going to do to Genma? I even told you about Ranma's fear of cats because of what Genma did."

Nodoka expression darkens for a moment before returning to normal. "I really don't know what to do with him? Honestly, I think it's best I just forget about him. I should see about having Ranma live with me so we can get to know each other better. Also so he can get away from all the insanity of his life because of all Genma's dealings."

Nodoka sighs. "I actually heard a few of Genma's misdeeds when I was traveling with Kazu-kun. The more damning one that told me he sold my son multiple times especially troubled me. It was what caused me to drink with Kazu-kun and eventually sleep with him. I no longer regret that day anymore, on the contrary, I very grateful for it. But enough of that talk lets get ready for bed girls."

Karin pouts. "But momma I'm not ready to go to bed yet? I'm not even" yawns "sleepy yet."

Nodoka looks to her daughter then pats her head. "Sorry dear but you need your beauty sleep or you won't grow big and strong like Ryoko here."

Karin looks to Ryoko. "So if I get my beauty sleep my chest will grow as big as Ryoko Oneechan."

Nodoka giggles. "Well if Ranko's chest is any indication then yes they will grow as big as Ryoko."

Karin lets out an excited "Yay" before hugging Ryoko's waist her head underneath her impressive bosoms.

"Now Karin helps Ryoko to her room, you two will be sharing a room. I hope you don't mind Ryoko." Said Nodoka.

Ryoko smiles happily at the both of them. "Its fine aunty I don't mind. I sort of see Karin like a little sister now. Now that you mention it Ranma posed as my little sister one time when Shirokuro had her puppies. I completely believed she was my sister."

Nodoka giggles. "Oh my, how did you believe she was your sister? Did Krista mention you having a sister?"

Ryoko shakes her head. "No, It's just I've been alone so long that when she introduced herself as Yoiko my little sister and made a convincing argument I really wished to believe it was true. I knew deep down she wasn't but at that moment I didn't feel alone anymore and I was willing to let it continue as long as possible. But of course, Ranma got tired of the charade and revealed himself." Ryoko head droops down.

Nodoka looks to Ryoko worriedly the goes to her hugging the girl. "I'm sorry for what my son did to you. That wasn't really what friends do. I promise to have a talk with him about this."

"No need aunty. I already had forgiven him besides I have done a number of unhanded things to Ranma as well." Ryoko tells Nodoka about her time as P-chan as Akane's pet. Using her curse form to make Ranma jealous and she slept in the same bed as his fiancé. Constantly fighting Ranma, attacking him as soon as she saw him and blaming the boy for all her problems.

"You see I not good friend to Ranma. All I ever did was take advantage of him. Use my curse against him by using Akane. I attacked it like a maniac trying to kill him. I blamed him for all my problems and yet he still considered me a friend. I'm a horrible person and yet he still considers me his rival." Ryoko stars to visibly cry.

Nodoka starts to pat Ryoko's head. "There there Ryoko, it's okay you both done terrible things to one another but I can tell from your tears you are truly sorry for your action and are trying to mend your friendship."

Ryoko nods her head. "I have to prove to Ranma I'm worthy to be his friend. He considers me his rival so I have to get stronger. As his rival, it is my responsibility to push him to improve. I can tell he enjoys our fights so that is he the least I can do. I still like to try and talk with him civilly."

"That's good dear maybe we should go to the school earlier around lunch time so you can talk for a bit before your fight. Maybe make a lunch for him as a peace offering as a start of a new beginning." Said Nodoka.

Ryoko wipes her face. "I think that's a good idea aunty. You think you can help me make it? I never really made food for others before so I'm not sure what to make."

Nodoka smiles at the fanged girl. "Now don't you worry I'll help guide you through the process. Now you two should go to bed I'll take care of the others downstairs.

With that Karin lead Ryoko back to her room while Nodoka headed downstairs to the living room. As she walks into the room she sees both boys asleep. She shakes Kazuma awake.

"Aw huh No-chan, did I miss anything?" asked a groggily Kazuma.

"No sweaty just head back to the room and go to bed I meet you there after I take him to the spare room." Said Nodoka.

Kazuma eagerly complying eager to get some more sleep heads upstairs. Nodoka as she approaches Nam she looks to the glass of water that still had some water left and grabs it. She goes over to Nam and dumps the water on his head turning him into Nami.

Nami sits up rubbing her face. "What the, where did that come from?"

Nodoka giggles before switching to English. "Sorry dear, but I had to wake you up. I have to say you are quite the pretty girl."

Nami looks at herself. "Oh, I guess I'm Nami again oh well."

Nodoka raises an eyebrow at that. "You don't seem all that concerned about being a girl are you?"

Nami shrugs. "No, not really. I mean I'm still me even if I'm a girl now. I honestly see it as a blessing. It gives me more freedom and more options in life."

"You seem to be the more of the go with the flow type who doesn't let much get you down. You and Kazuma are a lot alike in some regard." Said Nodoka.

"Thanks, I guess. Well, I'm Nam but call me Nami when I'm in girl form." Said Nami.

"Nami, what a pretty name. Well Nami come with me I'll show you to the guest room you'll be sleeping in tonight, and don't worry about Ryoko she already headed to bed with Karin."

Nodoka leads Nami to the guest room. After making sure Nami had everything she went to her room which she is sharing with Kazuma.

Back with Ryoko, she had finished putting on her night clothes which consisted of only a white shirt and panties. Her counterpart Karin attire was wearing kitty theme pajamas.

"Come on Karin time for bed." Said Ryoko.

Karin who was still playing with the puppies now in their room looks up to Ryoko then yawns. "Do I have too? Can't I stay up a little longer?"

Ryoko walks over to the girl and picks her up. "Yes Karin, now come on say goodnight to Shirokuro and her puppies."

"Night night Shirokuro and puppies." Said the sleepy redhead waving. The puppies give a little bark before settling next to their mother sleeping. Ryoko carries the little redhead to the bed where they settle in getting ready for sleep.

A few moments later the redhead spoke up. "Oneesan can you tell me a bedtime story?"

Ryoko couldn't help but smile at the little ball of joy. "Of course Imoto, I have the perfect story for you." Ryoko tells Karin a few of her adventures with Ranma and the rest of the Nerima wrecking crew completely catching Karin attention to the story. But eventually, she got too tired and fell asleep. Ryoko plays with the sleeping redhead's hair before kissing her forehead. "Imoto huh, I guess I already consider you my little sister don't I. I guess it helps that you look like Yoiko when Ranma pretended to be her."

Ryoko holds the redhead in an embrace. "I promise you Imoto I will never let anyone hurt you, I will always protect you no matter what." Ryoko's eye turns electric green. "And if anyone dares try hurting you I swear to Kami I'll kill them painfully slow." Her eyes then revert back to normal as she settles down to sleep with her new sister.

The next morning everyone was starting to wake up for the day. In Ryoko's room, Karin had just woken up yawning. Karin seeing that Ryoko is still asleep gets on top of her shaking her. "Oneesan oneesan time to get up its morning."

Ryoko now half awake hugs the little redhead which causes the girl to giggle. "Morning Imoto, thanks for waking me up. Now come on let's get dressed so we can have some breakfast."

The two then get out of bed and head to the dresser to get some clothes for the day. As Ryoko was looking through her dresser she found the same outfit Ranma wore as Yoiko. 'Well, that sure brings back memories; both the good and bad.' Ryoko looks to Karin. 'Hmm just maybe It could work. I just have to use my iron cloth to adjust the size.'

Ryoko gestures Karin to come closer. "Hey, Karin how about you wear this for the day? I think you will look nice in it."

"Really, okay oneesan." Said the happy redhead. Ryoko helps Karin into the Yoiko outfit as well as fix her hair into twin pigtails.

Ryoko then shows Karin a mirror. "So Karin do you like your new look?"

"Yes, Oneechan I love it." Said Karin.

Ryoko thinks for a moment then snaps her finger. "Of course that's what's missing." She then takes one of her bandannas from her neck then ties it above Karin's head completing the Yoiko look.

"That's better how do you like it now," said Ryoko.

"Wow, it looks great. Could you teach me how you make two of these?" asked Karin.

Ryoko smiles at the redhead. "The iron cloth, of course, my Imoto, I would love to when we have time later." Ryoko then gets dressed herself wearing the black long-sleeved Cheongsam top and black spring summer pants with flower black white embroidery bottom.

Ryoko was looking at herself making sure nothing out of place. 'Hmm, I'm really getting used to wearing female clothes. Heck, I'm even wearing girl panties. Honestly, I just would feel weird wearing boxers under these so panties were the way to go.'

Karin couldn't help but admire Ryoko's look. "Oneechan you look so pretty."

Ryoko blushes a bit. "Uh, thanks Imoto. Now come on let's get downstairs I smell some breakfast is being made." The two then head downstairs to the kitchen table where Kazuma and Nami were already at the table. As they walk in the two couldn't help but comment on their attire.

"Wow, you two look amazing. Ryoko I see you acquired your mother's taste in fashion. Karin, you look especially cute." Said Kazuma.

"Not bad Ryoko. So who's the little tyke?" asked Nami.

Ryoko pats Karin on the head. "This is my Imoto Karin. She is actually my cousin but details. Karin this is Nami she doesn't speak Japanese but I'm sure you'll both get along fine."

The four then talk amicably with each other for a while until Nodoka comes serving a traditional breakfast consisting of steamed rice, miso soup, grilled fish, natto, and kobachi.

"Okay everyone breakfast is ready and Ryoko you look quite stunning in that outfit. Here I was thinking I would have to educate you in women's clothing but I see you already got that covered." Said Nodoka with a little disappointment in her voice.

"Thanks, aunt Nodoka but it was Nami who chose this clothes for me so I don't mind if you teach me more about girls clothes." Said Ryoko.

Nodoka smiles at this. "It seems Nami is full of surprises. Well, Ryoko I would love to teach you all about girls clothing; oh I can't wait to take you shopping." Nodoka looks to her daughter. "Oh, Karin what are you wearing? You look absolutely adorable. I don't remember buying you that outfit did your father buy it for you?"

Karin shakes her head. "Na eh, Oneesan gave to me."

Nodoka looks to Ryoko. "Where did you get such a cute outfit from?"

"It's actually the same outfit Ranma wore when he pretended to be Yoiko. I couldn't bring myself to throw it out so I kept it in the bottom of my dresser." Said Ryoko.

"So Ranko wore this. I guess I can see why you might have fallen for her disguise than if she looked this cute." Said Nodoka.

The five then start eating breakfast while chatting with one another. After breakfast is done the group splits off as Ryoko, Karin, and Nami and Shirokuro head to the abandoned lot while Nodoka and Kazuma go to the courthouse to handle Nodoka's divorce with Genma.

"Okay Karin ready to learn the iron cloth technique?" asked Ryoko.

Karin nods her head vigorously while grinning, showing off her fangs. It takes about an hour training the girl to harness her ki and put it in a bandanna to make a copy.

"Nice work Karin you are a natural. Now let me teach you how to harden it to make it more durable." Said Ryoko. About a half hour in another visitor arrives at the lot.

Nami seeing this calls out to him in Chinese. "Hey, you're that guy from yesterday Mu-Tsu right."

Mousse looks to the honey brown hair girl who recognized him. "Uh sorry, miss but have we met?"

"Oh silly me, I'm Nami. I have a Jusenkyo curse like Ryoko; I was the guy sitting with her yesterday."

Ryoko seeing that Mousse was here walks over with Karin to greet him.

"Ah, I see so you also turn into a girl." 'What is with everyone tuning into girls? If this keeps up it only a matter of time to another Ranma appears.' Thought Mousse.

"Hey, Mu-Tsu good to see you you're here early." Said Ryoko in Chinese.

Upon seeing his friend, Mousse smiles. "Good morning Ryoko, I was in the neighborhood making a delivery when I thought to check up on you to make sure you were here and not lost somewhere."

Ryoko sighs. "Well, I guess I can't blame you for checking. So Mu-Tsu I plan on going to Furinkan around noon so I can talk with Ranma first so he can see my curse so we can have that out of the way. You think you can come around noon?"

"I'll have to ask the old mummy to let me off early but it shouldn't be a problem. The old mummy overheard our conversation and plans to watch the fight." Said Mousse.

"That's great then. Oh before I forget this is my Imoto Karin. Karin this is my friend Mousse." Said Ryoko in Japanese.

"Hi, I'm Karin." Said the redhead.

Mousse looks to the redhead and is surprised. "Ranma!"

"No Mousse this is Karin my cousin she only looks like Ranma's girl side." Said Ryoko.

'Great another Ranma look alike. The world isn't ready for another Ranma.' "Sorry, my mistake." Said Mousse.

"Its fine, so do want to train with us right now?" asked Ryoko.

"Afraid not, I still have a few more deliveries to make. Perhaps later afternoon then; well I'll see you later Ryoko." Said Mousse. With that Mousse left to finish his deliveries.

The rest of them went back to training with Karin practicing her iron cloth and Ryoko and Nami sparring. Their training went on until another hour and a half before Nodoka and Kazuma came back.

"Hey, guys were back. Did you guys enjoy your morning training." Said Kazuma.

Karin immediately rushes to them. "Mom, Papa looks what Oneechan taught me." She then pulls her bandanna making another one. "See it's just like magic."

"Aw, my little girl is already on her way to become the best martial artist." Said Nodoka.

"Already learning to use iron cloth huh, just like my sister you're a chip off the old block aren't you." Said Kazuma.

Ryoko walks over to the two. "Aunt Nodoka, did you finish that business of yours already?"

Nodoka smiles at Ryoko. "Yes dear, now I'm free to marry the true love of my life. Now Ryoko it's almost noon we should get to make a bento box for Ranma if you plan to start mending your friendship."

Nodoka then leads Ryoko back into the house to make a bento lunch box for Ranma. With Nodoka's help, Ryoko made Panda and P-chan rice balls with ham on the P-chan ones, carved sausages to look like octopuses, some fruits, and an omelet filled with bacon and cheese in almost an hour.

Ryoko wipes her head. "I'm done, aunty you think this will be good?"

"Of course dear, I sure my son will love it. Now you best get going your friend Mousse is waiting in the living room. He arrived just a few minutes ago. And take Karin and Shirokuro with you. I want Karin to meet her brother but don't let them know they are siblings. I want it to be a surprise and here are everyone else's lunches I made." Said Nodoka.

Ryoko quickly takes the bento boxes to meet the others as they make their way to Furinkan.

Furinkan

At school, Ranma was having the typical boring day. Long boring lectures that were boring his mind as he waited impatiently for the day to end. 'Uh come on how much longer is Miss Hinako going to bore the class. I wish I could speed up time. I still have lunch period after this." Ranma shivers at this.

"Dang it of all days for Akane for experimenting in the kitchen again; I could practically see the toxic fumes. And she expects me to eat that for lunch no thank you. Now I got to find a place to hide as both Ukyo and Shampoo are looking for me as well."

Ranma sighs. "Apparently Nabiki found out about the fight and is now trying to make a profit out it. So those two are trying to be the nice fiancé and serve me food before the big match. I sure as hell don't trust Shampoo's Ramen, who knows what she put in it. As for Ukyo well that's probably my safest bet on getting any real food out here but Shampoo won't be too far behind."

The bell rings signifying its lunch time. "Well, time to make a run for it." Ranma immediately gets up and runs out of the classroom just as Shampoo busted down the wall to find him just narrowly escaping.

Back with Ryoko and others, they were on their way to Furinkan. Mousse was leading the pack as the others following behind. Ryoko was trailing behind Mousse, Karin was riding Shirokuro and Nami was reading a How to Learn Japanese for Dummies. Nami had gotten that from Kazuma to help her learn the language; she honestly wasn't certain to be grateful or insulted or both.

"Hey Mousse thanks again for taking us to Furinkan. I hope it wasn't too much trouble asking granny Cologne for early leave. " Said Ryoko.

"Don't mention it Ryoko, it was the least I could do and don't worry about the old mummy. When she overheard our fight she planned on closing up early. Shampoo already left to see Ranma." Said Mousse. The last part was said with a bit frustrating in his voice.

"Hey Mousse how has everyone at the Neko Hanten been treating you when you stopped wearing glasses?" asked Ryoko.

Mousse sets in a thinking pose. "Well at first they kept telling me to put on my glasses. When they later realized I really didn't need them anymore they looked at me strangely. When the old mummy had me wait tables the female customers kept asking for me as well as leaving me their phone numbers. This caused some of the other waitresses including Shampoo to get angry for some reason."

Ryoko thinks for a moment before her eyes turn electric green. "Mu-Tsu I heard Shampoo used a reversal jewel not too long ago to catch Ranma attention when she acted cold to him. I think you should do something similar."

Mousse looks to his friend confusedly. "What do you mean?"

"I mean Shampoo refuses to give you any attention because she is used to your presence always being there so she considers it an annoyance. I want you to stop giving her attention try acting a little cold and dismissive like you're interested in other things; thing like those girls phone numbers. Try asking some of them on dates that will give you more experience with women as well cause Shampoo to get jealous." Said Ryoko.

"Are you sure that would work?" asked Mousse.

"As sure as it worked on Ranma to make him almost marry Shampoo just so he could get her attention again." Said Ryoko.

"But Ranma is a narcissist he craves attention." Said Mousse.

"True but Shampoo like attention as well. She will notice you not giving her the time of day anymore and get jealous if she sees you hanging out with other women. At least try it, it might just work. You have nothing to lose but everything to gain." Said Ryoko.

"Hmm okay, I'll give it a try." Said Mousse.

"Oneechan are we there yet?" said the little redhead riding Shirokuro.

Ryoko looks to the girl with her eyes now turning back to normal. "We're almost there Karin." She looks upon the path and sees Furinkan. "I say we'll be there in about a minute."

A moment later they pass through the gate. "So where will we find Ranma anyway?" asked Nami.

A moment later they heard a commotion in the field that sounded like yelling. "We follow the noise as that's probably where Saotome is." Said Mousse.

The group makes their way to the field where they see Ranma running in circles as Shampoo, Ukyo and Akane are chasing after him. As Ranma was running Shampoo and Ukyo were fighting as their food was spilled on the ground and Akane was trying to hammer Ranma for trying to eat Ukyo's food.

'Uh, this just isn't my day. All I did was try and sneak some of Ukyo's food without anyone noticing but unfortunately someone saw me sneaking off with Ukyo and they told Akane and Shampoo overheard then they found us and the fighting ensued. I didn't even get a bite of that okonomiyaki. Uargh there got to be a way out of this mess that involves me not eating Akane cooking. The smell alone makes me want to vomit.' Thought Ranma.

As Ranma continues to run Akane's mallet draws closer. "Stop running Ranma and eat the lunch I made for you!" yelled Akane.

Ranma shakes his head. "No way in Hell am I eating that. If I eat that it really will be my last meal!"

This, of course, makes her even angrier as she assumes her assault Ukyo and Shampoo continue fighting clashing their weapons against one another.

"Spatula girl pay for getting in Shampoo way!" Said Shampoo.

"The only one who is going to be paying is you Chinese bimbo!" said Ukyo.

As they were fighting Ryoko's group were watching the whole thing. "Does this happen often?" asked Nami.

"Unfortunately yes." Answered Ryoko.

"They're funny." Said Karin. The dog barks.

"Should we do something?" asked Nami.

Ryoko was thinking on how to diffuse the situation. She decides to heck with it takes a bandanna in each hand turning them into whips then using the skills of Rhythm Gymnastics Martial artist she one whip two wraps around both chief and Amazon tying them both together then she uses the other to grab the mallet throwing it away.

The Nerima martial artists were stunned that someone actually interfered. Looking to the newcomers that disabled them they were surprised to see a blond girl who looked like a girl they would see in a fashion magazine from what she was wearing.

Shampoo and Ukyo were glaring at the blond girl. "Who are you to dare get in Shampoo way?"

"Yeah who are you? You're not another fiancé for Ranma honey are you?" said Ukyo.

Akane seeing another focus for her anger directs it to the blond. "Hey what was that for. You better not be another fiancé?"

Ranma seeing that Akane was disarmed but kept his distance looked to the newcomers.

'I was hoping not to reveal my curse to everyone but if I don't they'll think I'm competition. Oh well, probably better this way. "I'm Ryoga Hibiki I went to Jusenkyo and got a new curse."

Everyone was having trouble believing the blond was actually Ryoga of all people when Mousse stepped up. "It is true she is Ryoga Hibiki."

Ranma gets a bit closer but still keeping his distance from the other girls. "Ryoga buddy is that really you?" Ryoko looks to Ranma and opens her mouth showing her fangs. "Yep that's P-chan alright but damn Ryoga you look like a girl. I mean you're actually dressed like one.

Ryoko smiles at Ranma. "Well, of course, I'm dressed like a girl. I do look like my mom after all so I have to look my best or if she saw me look like I usually do she would have a fit then drag me to the nearest fashion store which could take weeks to find."

Ranma laughs at that. "Yeah, that would be kind of funny to see. So you look like your mother huh. You know I met my mother not too long ago and she looked like my girl-side. I was actually grateful for that funnily enough."

Akane who was watching the two's byplay was having trouble coming to turns that the blond was Ryoga. 'How can she be Ryoga? She is so beautiful looking; her chest is even as big as Ranma's girl-side for crying out loud. This just isn't fair wait doesn't this mean no more P-chan? I know I was angry at him before but I didn't mean what I said before. I wanted to apologize to Ryoga. I missed having both Ryoga and P-chan to talk to. I didn't realize how much I relied on him until he was gone.'

Akane gathering up her nerves approaches Ryoko. "Uh, Ryoga is it really you?"

Ryoko turns to Akane showing a sad smile. "Yes, Akane it is me. But call me Ryoko when I'm in girl form it will be easier that way."

"Ryoko? Why are you calling yourself Ryoko for?" asked Ranma.

"Well my friend Nam who helped me gets to Jusenkyo thought it be better if our curse forms had different names so people wouldn't look at us funny with boy's names in girl form. Nam my new friend is over there." She points to the honey brown hair girl. "He also fell into the spring as well so call her Nami as she prefers. Oh, and she only knows how to speak Chinese and English."

"Wow, now there are two other people with the same curse as me. So you want me to get you some hot water buddy." Said Ranma.

Ryoko shakes her head. "No, wait until our match. Besides I still have another half hour before I can transform back."

Ranma raises his brow at this. "What do you mean you have to wait to transform."

"I mean when I went to Jusenkyo I became semi-permanently cursed. So now I have to wait 12 hours every time I'm splashed before hot water will work. So I'm pretty much going to be a girl half if not most of my life." Explained Ryoko.

Both Akane and Ranma were shocked at that bit of news. 'Is this my fault? When I told him I never wanted to see him again did it result in him falling to the spring becoming an almost different person? My God, what have I done?' Thought Akane.

'Ryoga is going to be stuck a girl most of his life. That is my worst fear come to life. I was always afraid of being stuck as a girl and now Ryoga has to deal with that. Even if he can still change back he is still a water magnet so it wouldn't last long. Poor Ryoga.' Thought Ranma.

"I feel sorry for you Ryog-Ryoko. Must be hard having to be a girl all the time." Said Ranma.

"It's fine Ranma. I have gotten quite used to it. Besides it's not really all that bad Ranma." Said Ryoko.

Akane starts to tear up. "Ryoga I'm sorry. It's my fault this happened to you, isn't it? If I didn't drive you away this wouldn't have happened."

Ryoko walks over to Akane and hugs her. "It's okay Akane it's not your fault. I chose to become a girl. The semi-permanent thing was just an unfortunate accident that came along with it."

Akane was visibly crying. "But I" Ryoko interrupts her. "No buts. Now stop trying to beat yourself over this okay. I don't mind being this way. Heck, my life ever since a month ago has only gotten better. I had quite a few fun adventures while I was away and I met both my uncle and aunt yesterday."

Ryoko then grabs Akane and Ranma's hands and leads them to where the little redhead was. "Ranma Akane I like for you two to meet my Imoto Karin. Karin these are my first two friends Ranma and Akane."

The redhead looks between the two before smiling at them showing one of her fangs. "Hi, I'm Karin Cougar."

Both Ranma and Akane were shocked at the sight of the girl. By all counts, the girl looked just like Ranma's girl-side in her Yoiko disguise.

"Wait you really have a sister but why does she look likes my girl side; is she really related to you? And for that matter why is she wearing that outfit?" exclaimed Ranma.

Ryoko rubs the back of her head. "Well actually she is my cousin but I consider her my sister. My aunt just so happened to be a redhead too. As for why is she wearing that well I thought she looks great in it."

Ryoko then picks Karin up hugging the girl between her breasts. "Isn't she just the cutest Imoto ever?"

Karin giggles. "Oneechan stop it your tickling me."

Ranma and Akane couldn't help but smile at how cute the two were together. After Karin squeezes out of Ryoko's breast her stomach growled. "Oneechan I'm hungry can we eat now?"

Ryoko smiles heart warmly at Karin. "Of course Imoto lets sit over there next to the tree I'll take out lunch boxes aunty made. Ranma, Akane why don't you join us?"

"Of course we love to join you Ryo-Ryoko. Right Ranma." Said Akane.

"Of course I haven't eaten yet." Said Ranma. The four of them along with Nami and Shirokuro sit down near the tree. Mousse is staying with the other two watching over them as per Nami's instruction as she believes those two would be trouble.

Ryoko takes out the bento boxes made by Aunt Nodoka sets them on a blanket she took out of her bag making it look like a picnic.

Ranma eyes roam around all the delicious food laid out. "Wow, so your aunt made all this?"

"Yes, but I helped make some of it." Ryoko takes out a bento box and gives it to Ranma. "This one is for you I made it myself with my aunts help I hope you like it." Said Ryoko with her head down.

Ranma was surprised that his friend would actually make him a lunch. The same thing was going through Akane's head as well which why she was waiting to see what Ryoko made. Ranma opens and is surprised to find it filled with Panda and P-chan rice balls with ham on the P-chan ones, carved sausages to look like octopuses, some fruits, and an omelet filled with bacon and cheese. "Wow, this looks delicious. The Panda rice balls actually look like Pops with his cross eyes. You even have P-chan rice balls this I have to try."

Ranma eats the P-chan rice ball and smiles happily. "This is so good Ryoko. This is the best P-chan I ever have eaten." He said in joking humor.

Akane being curious tried one of the P-chan rice balls too. "This is amazing I can't believe you made this. They are incredible."

Ryoko was blushing. "Uh thank you, guys. I thought to make this would be a good peace offering. A way for us to start over after everything that happened I want us to try again to be real friends this time."

"A start over huh. I don't mind that does that mean no more "Ranma prepare to Die" anymore?" asked Ranma.

Ryoko bows her head. "Yes Ranma, I promise on my honor as a martial artist I won't be attacking you like a crazed lunatic anymore. I promise to always ask you to a spar for now on. Should I ever go back on my word then I forfeit my life to you? Do with it as you please I really just want us to be real friends this time not just rivals."

Ranma was stunned for a moment at how far Ryoko was willing to go to mend their friendship. Snapping out of it he reaches out with his hand raising her head up. "Hey, there no need to go that far just so we can be friends. I'll always see you as my friend even if you attack me for no reason."

Ryoko who was leaking tears from her eyes. "Really even if I became a monster bent on killing you?"

Ranma smirks. "Of course I'll just kick your ass and put you straight so don't worry we'll always be friends no matter what."

Ryoko who was now crying tears of joy jumps Ranma hugging him. "Thank you, Ranma thank you. You're the bestest friend I could ever ask for."

Ranma was trying his best to get Ryoko off him namely her extremely soft breast out of his face. 'Wow, she actually is kind of cute like this. Hell her smiles she gives me are extremely cute. Even cuter then Akane and don't get me started on her body. She just as proportionate as my girl-side and just a bit taller too; actually she is almost as tall as me when I'm a guy. I can't help but feel a little jealous of this.' Ranma then feels killing intent directed at him. He sees Akane glaring death on him as his face is rubbed against Ryoko's breasts.

Off to the side, the other girls who were still tied up were glaring death at the blond hugging their Ranma.

'Former pig boy starting to become an obstacle, and obstacle are for killing.' Thought Shampoo.

'Ryoga don't you dare try and steal Ranma from me you two-timing bitch. We were supposed to be partners remember.' Thought Ukyo.

Shampoo tried numerous times to get Mousse to untie her but he turned the other way refusing. This infuriated the Amazon immensely.

Akane who was touched at first at the scene between the two; but as soon as Ryoko started to hug Ranma in such a provocative way all bets were off. 'That bastard is actually enjoying it. He is smiling while he gropes her breasts that pervert! They are both going to get it!'

"You PERVERTS!" Akane grabs her mallet from hammerspace raises it above her head. Ranma tries to use his hand to cover himself but Ryoko's grip prevents him. "Akane wait it isn't what it looks like."

Akane in full rage mode ignores his cries as she brings unholy judgment on the two. Just as the mallet is about to make contact it is stopped by Ryoko's finger. Cracks start to form on the mallet before it finally explodes causing Akane to snap out of her rage induced state. Akane was surprised that someone not only stopped her Mallet but destroyed it as well. Unfortunately, she didn't get much time to ponder this before Ryoko grabbed her bringing her into the hug with Ranma.

"You two are the best friends I could ask for!" cried Ryoko. It became obvious to the two that Ryoko must have instinctually stopped and destroyed the mallet as she was still in her happiness induced state.

Nami seeing that Ranma and Akane could use a break from being suffocated she taps Karin's head gesturing her to do something. Karin who was happily eating everyone's food while they were playing gets Ryoko's attention. "Oneesan I'm thirsty I need something to drink."

Ryoko snaps out of it and immediately goes to Karin's side serving her some tea. Akane and Ranma breath air of relief at no longer be squeezed to death.

'I forgot Ryoga tends to do things without thinking sometimes. Honestly, what was I thinking that those two were doing anything perverted for? I really need to control myself it's not like Ryoga now likes guys now right?' thought Akane.

'Whew, that was a close one. Who would have thought P-chan would save me from mallet-sama. I wonder if I could use her as an anti mallet bodyguard or something. Though I got to admit the hug wasn't too bad she actually smelled really nice. I honestly thought she would smell like ham but she smells like pine trees. I guess it makes sense because she is always camping.' Thought Ranma.

After they settle down they finish their lunch as the bell rings' telling the students lunch time is over.

"Well look like we got to go back to class. Hey, Ryoko we are still up for that match after school." Asked Ranma.

Ryoko smirks. "Of course Ranma I am going to enjoy kicking your ass later."

Ranma equally smirks back. "Oh, what to bet P-chan."

"Oh yes, I do. How about if I win you have to rub my feet…in guy form." Said Ryoko.

"Oh okay, two can play at this game. If I win you have to be my servant for a day." Said Ranma.

"Hey, that sounds better than my idea. Let change mine to that." Said Ryoko.

Ranma sticks his tongue out. "Nah no take backs."

Ryoko pouts. "You're being unfair Ranma."

'Wow is she actually pouting. She really has a cute face. It's hard to see Ryoga and Ryoko as the same person like this.' Thought Ranma.

Akane starts pulling on Ranma's arm. "Come on Ranma we have to get back to class. I'll see you later then Ryoko and especially you Karin." She pats the little redheads head. Just as she was about to leave she stops. "Hey wait what happened to the lunch I made? I could have sworn I left it there."

A moment later Shirokuro wearing a hazmat suit carrying a shovel walks back to the group sitting next to Karin. "Good doggy." Said Karin.

Akane not sure why the dog is wearing that suit drags Ranma back to class.

Mousse untied both girls then quickly backs away before they could retaliate. Ukyo quickly grabs her spatula running to class while mumbling about no good treacherous bandanna girls. Shampoo gets up glares at the blond who was catering to the little redhead's needs. "Don't think Shampoo forget this insult pig girl. I'll be cheering for airen to beat your ass." With that, she left.

Ryoko who wasn't paying attention was wiping Karin's face who was patting her stomach after eating most of the food. "Mmh the food was good Oneechan." Said Karin.

"Thanks, Imoto but your mother made most of it." Said Ryoko.

Mousse walks over to the others. "I guess that could have ended better. What are going to do about Shampoo and Ukyo?"

Ryoko looks at him confusedly. "What do you mean? What about them?"

"You did realize they were glaring death at you? No what I guess it doesn't matter you can easily beat them should they attack you. So what now." Asked Mousse.

"Hmm how about we train for the remainder of the time until school lets out?" said Ryoko.

Mousse agrees and the three of them start training together while Karin takes a nap on Shirokuro's back. As they are training Ryoko starts teaching Mousse how to harness his ki and it doesn't take him long to do so. She then teaches him the Dodon Ray as it has more precision in its attacks, as well as the Neo Dodon Ray for more power.

As they are training Ranma who was in class was watching from the window and he couldn't help but feel astonished at Ryoko.

'I can't believe P-chan is actually teaching Mousse a new ki technique? Where and when did she learn to fire a ki blast from her finger? She is doing it so effortlessly it's not like the Shishi Hokodan that takes some time not the mention the heavy ki, but this technique is instantaneous. There is no build up it's so fast. And she is now teaching this technique to Mousse of all people!'

Ranma lets out a grunt of annoyance as he watches Mousse fire a ki blast rapidly at Ryoko as she dodges nimbly. 'Of all people to teach that move to it has to be duck boy? Why him? Not that I care or anything but seriously why him? There is also the fact she is moving so fast now. She is dodging those attacks with such agility and skill that dare I say it almost as good as me? Nah, must be her girl side making her faster.'

The training goes on until the school end. The moment the bell rung students started filling out to the field where they knew the match would be. Nabiki had already spread the word the fight between Ranma and Ryoga would be today. Everyone at the school knew Ryoga was considered Ranma's rival so everyone knew the match could go either way. Nabiki's betting pool already taking bets on the fight. Ukyo not letting an opportunity slip by to make a profit sets up shop selling okonomiyaki.

On the field, Ryoko's group stopped their training so Ryoko could get ready for the fight. Nami takes Ryoko to the restroom with Karin who finally woken up from her nap to change.

Ryoko looks to Karin. "Imoto there is something I'm going to show you okay?" Karin nods. "Now you need to understand that I'm not always a girl. I was originally a boy who got a curse that turns me into a girl okay." Karin looks at Ryoko confusedly. "It is better I show you." Ryoko quickly changes into her male clothes then goes to the sink turning on the Hot water she splashes herself turning male again. Karin stares at Ryoga in confusion.

"Oneesan what happened to you?" Ryoga looks to his Imoto. "I'm a boy Karin. Cold water turns me into a girl and hot water turn me back into a boy… sometimes.

"But yesterday we took a bath together in hot water and you were still a girl." Said Karin.

Ryoga looks at her sadly. "That is true because I am semi-permanently cursed so hot water will only work after 12 hours after being splashed with cold."

Karin looks to the sink thinking about turning on the cold water but Ryoga quickly get's her attention. "Karin I know what you're thinking but I need to fight Ranma man to man at least one last time."

Karin looks to Ryoga. "Will you go back to being Oneesan after your fight?"

Ryoga with a pained smile. "Of course I will right after the fight okay."

Karin smiles warmly at Ryoga. "Okay, One-Oniisan. When they come out Ryoga is wearing a black tank top, black training pants, dark blue armbands and his bandana back on his head.

"So are you ready Ryoga?" asked Nami.

Ryoga swings his umbrella placing on his shoulder. "As ready as I'm going to be. Take me to the field Nami."

Nami leads Ryoga back to the field. Ryoga takes a small detour to the tree to leave his bag near with Karin and Mousse taking only the umbrella.

"Karin stay here with Mousse. Mu Tsu takes care of her." Said Ryoga.

"Don't worry Ryoga I'll make sure nothing happens to her. And thanks again for that technique. Now get out there and kick Saotome's ass for me" Mu Tsu raise his fist while Ryoga does the same as they fist bump.

Ryoga smirks. "You don't have to tell me twice I was already planning to." Ryoga then follows Nami to the center of the field where the fight will start.

Ranma had already run straight to the field as soon as the bell rang. He is now waiting impatiently for Ryoko to return after she left saying she had to get changed first. 'Come on already I've been waiting forever. You better of not gotten yourself lost P-chan.'

Not too long Ryoga arrives being lead by Nami as he approaches Ranma standing a few feet from him. Ranma seeing that it is Ryoga who stands before him, not Ryoko couldn't keep the grin appearing on his face. "P-chan I see your back. I was wondering if I ever see you piggy face again. I was worried you got yourself lost."

Ryoga ignoring Ranma's taunt only smirks at him. "Well, Ranma this has been a long time coming. This will be the day I finally beat you so I want you to engrave this moment into your mind Ranma."

As the two rivals stare each other off in the crowd Nabiki who was collecting bets sees Kuno as he stands over the hill of the field stoically. She goes over to him. "Kuno baby I see you came to watch the match. Do you wish to place a bet?"

"Nay Nabiki, I came here to watch the young Hibiki try his hand in vanquishing the foul Saotome," said Kuno.

"So that's all then. Well, I see you later than I still have bets to collect." Said Nabiki. As she is about to leave Kuno calls out to her.

"Halt Nabiki I wish to use your services." Asked Kuno.

Nabiki turns to Kuno with a smirk. "And which service will that be?"

"I want all information on the mysterious blond fanged girl that was practicing in our field earlier while we were in class. I was enamored at the way she moved as she was sparring with those other two. She moved with such grace and beauty comparable to the pigtail girl. I will, of course, pay you generously of course." Said Kuno.

Nabiki couldn't help but smirk evilly at this. 'Ryoga it looks like you're going to be my second cash cow right beside Ranma. I wonder if I can get pictures of both in female form in a lewd position. The boys would eat that up especially Kuno. "Don't worry Kuno baby I'll see what I can do."

Elsewhere in the crowd, Akane makes her way to the tree with her friends Sayuri and Yuka. "So this girl you want to show us really looks like Ranma's girl-side?" asked Yuka.

"Yes, she does. She just has brown golden eyes instead of blue." Said Akane. The three make their way to the tree where Karin is at with Mousse and now Nami.

Akane waves to Karin. "Karin I like you to meet two of my friends Sayuri and Yuka."

Karin looks to the other girls curiously. "Hi, I'm Karin Cougar."

Sayuri and Yuka couldn't help but gush at the 5 yr old girl. "Oh, she is just adorable." Said Sayuri. "Yes, I know. She'll probably be as pretty as Ranma-chan when she grows up. I'm so jealous." Said Yuka. While the two were gushing over the redhead the Amazons arrived.

Cologne pongees her way to the others. "I see I made it on time to see son in laws match." Cologne looks to the little redhead. "Hmm, so who might this child be?"

Mu Tsu answers. "That's Karin Cougar. She is Ryoga's cousin."

Cologne narrows her eyes. "Hmm interesting that she looks like son in laws girl-side, Mu Tsu did you by chance meet her parents. I sense she has much potential in her."

"I met her father and saw a glimpse of her mother when I went to Hibiki's house but what caught my immediate attention was her father." Said, Mu Tsu.

"And what caught your attention?" asked Cologne.

"Her father Kazuma I believe his name was his power is immense. I could tell the moment I laid eyes on him he possessed immense power. It was like the time I first met the elders in the village but his was even bigger even with all the elders combined." Said Mu Tsu.

Cologne raised an eyebrow at this. "Are you sure of this? I know your awareness is better than most others but are you certain?"

"On my life." Said Mu Tsu.

"Hmm I see, and you said his name was Kazuma. That name sounds familiar. I'll look into this later." Said Cologn.

Shampoo, on the other hand, was intensely watching her airen about to fight. 'Airen will certainly beat that pig bitch's ass. Maybe offer airen to kill pig girl later perhaps.'

Back on the field both martial artist faceoff against each other. Both ready to fight Ryoga holds his umbrella then tosses it into the air. As it spins it comes tumbling down. As it finally hits the ground Ryoga moves to close the distance between the two in moments. Ranma barely dodges as the first planting itself into the ground blowing the ground apart.

Ranma smirks viciously. 'It looks like P-chan has gotten faster. So it wasn't just his female form after all. Good, this fight will certainly get a whole lot interesting.'

Ranma backs up trying to gain some distance as Ryoga launches multiple fast punches and kicks at him. Ranma barely blocks and dodges them. Ranma was surprised at how much Ryoga improved over the month. He then goes offensive by using a sweep kick knocking Ryoga's feet from under him then slamming his other leg right onto his face on the ground.

Ryoga with a partial bloody nose grabs Ranma's leg lifting him off the ground then slamming him back on the ground repeatedly. Ranma kicks Ryoga's hand off his leg then jumps back up getting some distance he cups his hands together gathers confidence ki then fires "Moko Takabisha" at Ryoga. Ryoga seeing this gets holds his hands out to grab hold of the blast as the blast slams into him he tries to push it back before deciding to slam it into the ground.

Dust obscures the area around Ryoga as Ranma waits for his rival. From out of the dust cloud several bandanna boomerangs come out headed for Ranma. As he starts to dodge the boomerangs Ryoga in the dust cloud fires a "Dodon Ray" at Ranma as he dodges the boomerangs forcing him to bend awkwardly to dodge both. Ryoga fires several more blast predicting where Ranma will most likely dodge as the other boomerangs close in on Ranma. Even with Ranma great agility, he is unable to dodge them all as Ryoga's blast were there waiting for him with some of the blast hitting him in the leg, left shoulder and back.

The attacks cause Ranma to yell out in pain as he falls to his knees. He looks up to the dust cloud that dissipates showing a smirking Ryoga with his right hand up pointing like a gun. The smirk infuriates Ranma as he gets back up charges at his rival using the Kachu Tenshin Amaguriken on Ryoga who starts blocking and dodging his fist with only 241 punches out of 518 actually landing. Ranma was surprised Ryoga would actually try to block his attack as he normally tanks the blows.

Ryoga the takes a bandanna in each hand turning it into long whips empowering it with ki giving it electric characteristics he slashes at Ranma forcing him on the defensive. As he continues his assault he uses his ki on his left whip to make it more like a snake as when he slashed near the area Ranma was at as he dodges in the air the whip followed him grabbing his ankle shocking him before slamming him on the ground repeatedly.

"Hey, so when did you start using tricks like Kodachi?" Complained Ranma as he hits the ground again.

"It's a Rhythm Gymnastics technique Ranma. My mom uses techniques like this all the time just that hers are far more advanced." Said Ryoga as he slams Ranma again before throwing him up in the air.

"But you never used those techniques before in any of our fights?" questioned Ranma as he flips through the air landing on his feet backing up getting some distance.

"That was because I was embarrassed using the techniques as I perceived them as being techniques for girls. I realized how completely stupid that was later and now I'm fully using them." Said Ryoga.

Ranma smirks "It's because you're a girl now isn't?" There was deathly silence at that. "Don't worry buddy I won't judge you. Some of the techniques I learned were too embarrassing to do as a guy as it was unmanly but as a girl it was okay. So don't worry I understand completely how you feel."

Ryoga trying to hide the blush of his face used his ki to empower his legs dashes to Ranma closing the gap using Shoryuken surprising him by hitting him with a ki reinforced spin uppercut in the air. Ryoga doesn't let it end there as he jumps in the air above Ranma landing 3 hits on Ranma before landing a spin kick to Ranma "Lions Barrage" launching him back down hitting the ground hard creating a crater.

Ranma who lay in the crater struggles to get up while Ryoga stands there to wait for Ranma. 'What the hell was that? What were those moves? He moved so fast I barely saw him knock me into the sky before he knocked me down again. Damn it all his blows are starting to take its toll on me. There is no way I'm losing here! It's time to bring out the big guns.'

Ranma gets up from and faces Ryoga with a smirk on his face. "That all you got P-chan or are you going to use that whip again? From that whip in your hand, I guess you're into some really kinky stuff aren't ya. I would never have thought you were into that kind of stuff? Next thing you know you will be in a leather suit in girl form whipping people like one of those dominatrices Hiroshi and Daisuke talk about." Taunted Ranma.

Ryoga looks around and hears the other students talking about his weird fetish for whips. 'And this why I didn't use techniques like this before; people kept thinking my mom was some kind of dominatrix. She only likes that in private with dad I swear!'

Ryoga gets angry and attacks Ranma who puts his hands in his pockets uses his soul of ice and starts dodging leading the lost boy into a spiral.

As Ryoga was trying to hit the pigtail boy he realized he was being led into a spiral. 'So he plans on using his most powerful move against me then? Well if I plan to completely defeat you then it will be through your ultimate technique.' Ryoga unleashes his hot aura fueling the technique as he chases after Ranma.

In the crowd, Cologne who was watching the fight narrows her eyes. "It seems Ryoga has indeed become much stronger than before. Hmm but I can tell he is unleashing his aura to fuel son in laws technique though. What could he be planning?"

'That's right pig keep coming at me with that hot ki, just a little bit more and I will win.' Ranma moves closer to the end of the spiral Ranma then makes an uppercut strike in the air "Hiryu Shoten Ha" a chi laced tornado is formed carrying Ryoga straight up into the air.

Ryoga knowing this can easily end in defeat if he screws up he goes all in as his eyes turn electric green he uses his bandannas changing their width and length he turns it into a mock hang glider to ride the wind. As Ryoga uses his glider to ride the wind some debris the hurricane picked up hit him in the face. Ryoga is unfazed by this as he soldiers on even though a second later a water bottle hits him to splash water on him transforming into a girl. Ryoko barely realizes the change as she continues her way up to the top. As the glider makes it to the top it flies above the hurricane; as she sees the eye of the storm she lets go plummeting straight down.

As she falls through the center of the hurricane she sees Ranma still standing where he was with his hand in the air smirking in victory. She smiles devilishly as she raises her right fist as red electricity circulate around her arm and body. "Hey, Ranma eat this! DRAGON FIST!"

A red Shenron dragon forms around Ryoko's arm as it launches straight at Ranma who looks up to realize he can't dodge unless he is swept away in his own technique. 'Oh, this is going to hurt isn't?' thought Ranma.

The dragon collides with Ranma causing an explosion that tears the Hurricane apart. As the dust settles the crowd looks to the crater where both martial artists were last seen. In the center of the crater, a blond girl stands victorious over a half-buried unconscious Ranma.

"Hey, Ranma Saotome is out cold. He actually lost!" said one boy.

"So Ryoga his rival won?" Said another.

"But who's that blond girl over there?" said one girl.

"Is it me or is she wearing the same clothes Hibiki was wearing not 5 seconds ago?" said another boy.

Nabiki makes herself known. "I can tell to you who the blond girl is for a fee."

The students knowing the proper protocol when dealing with Nabiki fork over the cash.

"Okay, the girl over there is just like Ranma Saotome she is Jusenkyo cursed. She is, in fact, Ryoga Hibiki." Said Nabiki.

"Wait seriously? Another guy turned into an insanely hot girl damn? Life just isn't fair if a girl that hot isn't datable." Complained one boy as he is swatted in the head by his girlfriend.

"I know what you mean it just isn't fair. I would totally date female Ranma even if she is a dude half the time." Said another boy as various others nod their heads in agreement some being girls as well.

"Yeah if only Ranma wasn't so averse to taking advantage of his female form to have some real fun with it. Hey you don't think maybe Hibiki might be a little more open would she." Asked the boy.

Nabiki sees another opportunity. "I willing tell you more about her preference with another fee."

As the student were about to cough up the cash Kuno approaches.

"Nabiki the blond fang girl appeared again and I overheard you saying you have more information on her. Whatever the amount I pay double no triple for all information on her." Said Kuno.

Nabiki smiles devilishly as she takes his money. "Now as far as Ryoga or Ryoko in female form preference goes I believe he/she can be ambiguous. I heard from a reliable source 'Gosunkugi who was eavesdropping on their conversation earlier' she unlike Ranma can't transform into male form with hot water anytime she wants as she is semi-permanently cursed so she has to wait 12 hours every time she is splashed with cold water. From what I know of her character she unlike Ranma she is adapting to her female form so she may fall in love with just about anyone as long as you're nice to her."

"Wait so this one might be willing to date guys? Awesome!" said one boy.

"So the blond girl is actually a boy but is most likely going to be a girl most if not the rest of his/her life. I can get behind this, when should I ask her out I wonder?" said another boy.

"I wouldn't mind dating him/her having both forms would make dating quite interesting." Said a girl. A few other girls agree with her.

"Wait for Nabiki, so what your saying is the blond fang girl is suffering under a curse undoubtedly casted by the foul Saotome and all I have to do is be nice to break the curse and she will fall in love with me?" said Kuno.

Nabiki wasn't sure how he came up with that conclusion even when Ranma's curse was mention is anyone's guess. "Sure Kuno baby whatever you say."

As the crowd was talking about the blond girl Akane along with Karin on Shirokuro rush to the crater where the two were.

"Ranma!" Akane immediately goes to Ranma's side lifting his head up trying to shake him awake. Ryoko was simply standing there soaking up the feeling that she finally beat Ranma. Something she dreamt of for so long. Not two seconds later a little-redheaded missile launches itself into Ryoko's chest.

"Oneesan your back I missed you?" Karin then rubs her head in-between Ryoko's breast.

This action causes Ryoko to realize she is in fact in female form. "Oh, Imoto is good to see you. Did you enjoy the match?"

Karin looks up smiling happily. "Of course, when you were Oniisan you were awesome out there especially that last move. You have to teach me that move please."

Ryoko laughs. "Of course Imoto I will teach you when you older." She pats Karin head who pouts then looks to Ranma.

Seeing that he is still unconscious she put Karin back down then bends down next to Ranma and raises her hand. Her hand starts to glow with pure life energy as she transfers it to Ranma.

Akane seeing this gets defensive. "Ryoga what are you doing? You already won so don't hurt him anymore.

"I'm not Akane, I'm trying to heal him." Said Ryoko.

A moment later Ranma opens his eyes. "Uh, what happened did I win?"

Ryoko looks down at Ranma and smiles. "No Ranma you lost. I finally beat you. And this one was official too as everyone saw it."

Ranma looks to Akane who nods her head. "Aw man, I can't believe I lost! I'm Ranma Saotome I'm not supposed to lose!" cried Ranma.

"Oh don't be a baby Ranma. Everybody loses sometimes." Said Akane.

Ranma huffs. "Well maybe for you but winners don't lose."

Akane gets angry at this. "RANMA!" As she is about to take out her mallet Ryoko stops her. "Akane enough and you too Ranma." Both of the huff at each other. Ryoko sighs deciding to deal with Ranma first.

"Now Ranma I know you don't take losing very well but I think you losing here is a good thing." Said Ryoko.

"Oh, I bet you do P-chan. I bet you want to gloat well come then get it over with." Said Ranma.

Ryoko rubs her head in annoyance. "Ranma what I'm trying to say is by losing you get to learn more about what went wrong in a fight learn from it and improve. Just look at me I lost to you many times to you before and I learned all these new techniques just to beat you."

"So your saying I should learn from this and train to beat you is what you're saying?" asked Ranma.

"Yes, Ranma but of course I won't lose easy. If anything I'm going to keep beating you for your own good." Said Ryoko.

"So how is that for my own good P-chan." Said Ranma.

"Because Ranma you need some humility. You are way too overconfident in your skills that they have stagnated since last I was here. So as your rival and friend I am going to keep beating you forcing you to become stronger."

Ryoko then stands up then leans down with her hand stretched out as she smiles heartwarmingly at him. "Don't worry Ranma as we train together I plan to least teach you half of the techniques I know."

Ranma looks to the outstretched hand then to her face trying not to look at her impressive bust popping out of her tank top. "Uh, why would you offer to teach me your moves Ryoko? I don't need your pity."

Ryoko just continues smiling at him. "Because silly we are friends and friends helps each other no matter what. Besides we are rivals after all so teaching you these techniques will make you a stronger fighter making me have to improve as well."

'Really she plans on teaching me her techniques. Originally I planned to just follow her when she is training to steal her moves. But this is actually better. Perhaps this is actually what I really wanted all along. A real friend who understands me on some level who I can train with; I have a feeling that maybe Ryoga or Ryoko will be that friend.' Thought Ranma.

As Ranma reaches out his hand he grabs Ryoko's as she starts to pull him up. Karin who was getting impatient that her Oneesan wasn't paying attention to her decides to jump her from behind holding her waist. Unfortunately, this causes Ryoko to lose balance as she falls forward into Ranma as he was about to stand up with the two falling down atop each other.

Ranma notices something soft and sweet is against his lips. As he opens his eyes he noticed that Ryoko was on top of him with their lips together. Both of them were blushing hard as they try to separate slowly as their lips come apart. But as they were separating they feel killing intent not just coming from Akane but from three others as well as they appear in the crater glaring death at the both of them.

"RANMA YOU PERVERT!" screamed Akane as she lifts her mallet.

"Ryoga you traitor! You were supposed to be my partner and help me get Ranma not you get him yourself you treacherous bitch!" screamed Ukyo as she swings her Spatula at the two.

"Pig Girl Shampoo KILL!" screamed Shampoo as her sword aimed at them.

"How dare you try to lay a hand on the fair blond fang girl foul Saotome. Now I will smite you have at thee!" screamed Kuno with his wooden sword aimed at Ranma's head.

Just as their blows were about to hit Ryoko thinking fast grabs both Ranma and Karin pulls them into her breast as she raises her hand to her head. "Solar Flare" A big flash of light blinds everyone. After about a minute the light dissipates. As they start to regain their sight they notice the two along with the redhead girl are gone. The fiancé brigade deciding to hunt down the pair in their blind rage set out.

Outside of Furinkan field a redheaded woman and reddish brown hair man leave the school after watching the fight.

"Oh, my son was so manly out there even if he did lose to Ryoko in the end." Said Nodoka.

"Yeah whatever you say. Aren't you worried they kissed each other at the end?" said Kazuma.

"Hmm not really. If those two started dating I don't think I mind. I whether my son married for love than obligation only for it to fall apart not too long after getting married like mine did." Said Nodoka.

"Whatever you say but aren't you worried about Karin who went with them?" asked Kazuma.

"No, she is with Ryoko and her brother so she will be fine. Not to mention Shirokuro won't be too far behind." Said Nodoka. With that, the two make way back home.

On the other side of town, Ryoko managed to somehow get lost there when they made a run from the fiancé brigade as she carried both Ranma and Karin.

Ranma now walking on his own two feet walks beside Ryoko. "I don't know how you manage to get us here in only a minute but I very grateful you saved us from that mess."

"Yeah, that whole kissing you thing was an accident. I guess its best we lay low awhile until they calm down." Said a blushing Ryoko.

Ranma blushing as well turns his head. "Yeah, we best do that for both of our sakes. So that last move you used to help us escape was really useful for a quick getaway. So you mind teaching me that as well as that last move you used to beat me?"

Ryoko smiles at Ranma. "Of course I'll teach you, you're my friend Ranma so this will help you in the long run. Especially when you need to run from your fiancés." She says in joking humor.

Ranma can't help but laugh with her. 'Man she really is the greatest friend I can ask for. You know that kiss back there wasn't half bad. It actually tasted really sweet, kind of wished it lasted longer. Dang it I shouldn't be thinking about these things about my friend. Get your head out of the gutter Saotome. Besides she is a boy too just not all the time because of the curse making her a girl most of the time but still. Though she is probably the only one who understands what I'm going through.'

Karin getting tired of their byplay gets in-between the two a latches on to Ryoko. "Oneesan I'm hungry I want something sweet to eat."

Ryoko smiles warmly at Karin. "Of course Imoto anything you want how about we get you some ice cream?"

"Yes please, I love ice cream." Said Karin.

"Okay then; Ranma can you lead us to a place that sells ice cream I'm buying." Said Ryoko.

Ranma looks to the little redhead in annoyance. "Of course I know just the place." 'Of course, she treats the little troublemaker who got us in this mess in the first place. If this is what siblings do I'm glad I'm an only child.' As the three make their way to the ice cream shop somewhere in Nerima a redheaded woman sneezes.


A/N: This chapter came out longer than expected. I kept on adding stuff in-between when all I was trying to do was get to the fight. Oh well now about why Ryoga/Ryoko is so attached to Karin is because he/she is emotionally depended person. He was the same with Akane in the manga/anime until I got rid of it. It's why he can suffer any humiliation for someone like Akane by being her pet or eat her terrible cooking with a smile on his face as he slowly dies inside.

Ryoga/Ryoko given the chance to have a sister who accepts him/her as their older sibling is more than willing to do anything to please them even if it means being a girl for the rest of their life. Kind of like that time when tried to be P-chan permanently so he can always be by Akane's side.
