These characters belong to Rumiko Takahashi, and no matter how I plead, they will never belong to me.. never ever. So Don't sue me...I have 3 dollars and was saving it to buy another manga...and if you take that away, it won't go into your pay check =P..
SEPERATION~
Ranma sat with his arms folded, slouched in the chair. It seemed everybody was having a good time, everybody but him. Nobody seemed to notice his depression and if anybody had mentioned it he would have denied of course that it had anything to do with her. After all she was too good to show up, it was just a party after all, and it didn't hurt one bit that it was his birthday. Ranma frowned again, thinking of all the places he'd rather be right now. The only reason he had let them throw a party for him was because she's promised she'd come, and had joked all week about what to get him. He guessed she had just been leading him on, laughing behind his back about how gullible he was.
"He Ranma! It's time to open presents!" Ukyo yelled from the next room where everybody was gathering.
"Okay I'm coming!" Ranma yelled back, trying his best to sound excited.
"Open mine first Ranma" Ukyo said handing him a small package. He took it from her, wondering what his best friend had gotten him. Wondering also if it would put him in a better mood. He gently tore the wrapping paper and opened the small box inside. "Ranma wait, I forgot to give you your card!" Ukyo said laughing as she handed him the white envelope. He quickly shut the box, gave her what he hoped looked like a happy smile and ripped open the envelope. He read through it; it was nothing special really, just the normal mushy friend crap that gets printed in every card.
"Thanks Ukyo that's really nice.." Ranma said trying hard not to laugh, he really wasn't in the mood for this. He picked up the small box again, and opened the lid. He had to laugh at what he saw. Ukyo knew him to well. It was a long chain with the symbol for man on the end of it. He picked up the note that was at the bottom of the box. So that people will know how much of a man you really are, no matter what form you happen to be in! Happy birthday Ranchan. That was the kind of card that Ranma actually like, none of the fake stuff. Ranma gave her his first genuine smile of the night.
"You know me so well..." he said causing everyone to laugh. Ukyo beamed proudly. Ranma didn't know how he was going to make it through everybody else.
"Airen..You open Shampoo's present now, yes?" Shampoo asked, sliding the large present over to him.
"Yah sure.." He bent over it and started to tear the gold wrapping paper. She handed him a jackknife as he ripped off the rest of the paper. He took the knife from her and slit the tape along the top of the box. He reached inside and pulled out 4 new Chinese style shirts.
"You wear yes? Shampoo ask friends to send them from China."
"Wow, thanks Shampoo" Ranma did like the present but he just wanted everybody to leave. Several people started to slide their present's foreword, causing Ranma to turn and gave Kasumi a pleading look.
"I think that it's getting a bit late, since we ate earlier, I think it would be best if Ranma opened the rest of the presents on his own." Kasumi said, once she caught his pathetic look. Some people started to whisper but others hushed them, reminding them that this was Kasumi. People thanked Ranma for having them and finally everyone was gone. Kasumi helped move all the presents up to his room, and when they were done Ranma sank onto his bed. Once Ranma was sure Kasumi couldn't hear him he quietly mumbled to himself
" I never want to have to do that ever again, I guess the stupid tomboy does make things more interesting..." He lay there for a few more minutes relishing in the quiet before heading downstairs again.
"Nabiki did Akane tell you she wasn't going to come today?" he heard Kasumi ask from the kitchen.
"No I thought she was coming, she had his present all picked out and everything, you don't think she changed her mind do you? I hope nothing happened to her." Nabiki said, noticing Ranma standing in the doorway. Ranma stopped dead in his tracks, he hadn't thought about that.
"Your right, we should send Ranma out to look for her, It isn't like her to suddenly decide not to come." Kasumi said with a sigh.
"Your right, Hey Ranma!" Nabiki called out, she started to walk foreword to go get him but Kasumi stopped her.
"He's already gone.." She said pointing to the door that was now wide open.
Ranma frowned grimly underneath his umbrella as he walked. He had already been searching for her for over an hour, and she wasn't anywhere. He had checked at all her friends houses that were within walking distance, and had called the rest from a pay phone. He didn't want to go back until he found her. It started to rain harder, and Ranma started to doubt that he would be male if he found her...WHEN he found her. Ranma sighed, his throat hoarse from calling out her name, and kicked at a can as he walked by. He paused after he kicked it, something wasn't right. He squinted in the dim lighting of the street lamp at the can. He saw that it wasn't a can at all but instead a shoe of some sort. *Who would leave their shoe in the middle of the sidewalk?* He thought idly to himself. He bent over and picked it up, it looked a little higher class then this neighbor hood. He was about to toss it back to the ground when something caught his eye. There was a sticker on the inside, one of those picture stickers. Ranma held it up to the light and his heart nearly stopped beating.
{I know I know, I could do better cliff hangers, but I always hate cliff hangers so I decided that I would suck at them...really that's what happened. Well never fear "T" is here...bwahahaha I decided that that's going to be my trademark because I've always wanted one to put at the end of my stories. Anyways...Please write reviews, I could use some pre-readers. This is just a draft so no freaking out about how bad it is okay? Okay... anyway 0_o...I just love that face!! =P
