Shampoo went to bed early because
she was tired from the work in the Cat Café. She was sleeping deep
and innocently so she didn't realize it when suddenly the door opened a
little and a small ray of light lightened up the room.
The ray of light grew bigger and
bigger and a soft voice wispered:
"Shampoo…? Shampoo, wake up!"
Cologne entered the room. She turned
the light on and sat down next to her
great- granddaughter.
Shampoo blinked blinded by the light.
Her drowsy eyes searched for the reason of her sudden awaken.
"Great-grandmother? What do you do
here?" She nodded to her alarm clock. "It's
three o'clock in the morning!"
A strange smile appeared on Cologne's
face. "I have a plan" she said mysteriously.
Her eyes glittered excited. "A plan
how to get rid of Akane."
Immediately Shampoo was awaken. "Tell
me!" she ordered and followed Cologne into the kitchen.
About ten minutes later the main
plan of Cologne was explained. Shampoo's face showed confusion.
"But this… this is hard, isn't it?
You mean we shall-"
"Yes, I mean. It's the only way to
get Ranma." The old lady nodded dedicated.
"And you are really sure?" Shampoo
couldn't believe what she had heard.
"I am. I've thought a long time about
that. The plan is perfect." Cologne smiled. "And soon you will marry
Ranma.", she added pleased with herself.
The two Amazones spent the whole
night with organizing the following Friday when the plan should start.
Cologne had to do a few telephone calls while Shampoo tried to imagine
what Ranma would wear on their wedding.
* * * * *
Meanwhile Akane had a unsettled night.
She rolled around in her bed and could hardly find any sleep. So she was
thankful when finally her alarm clock rang.
* * * * *
Tendou residence
"Ranma!!! You idiot!" Akane shouted
angrily, her face red like a tomato. "What do you think you're doing here?!"
"Uh-uh" Ranma whispered. He had surprised
Akane in the bathroom like it was often the case. Before he was able to
say anything to defend himself Akane jumped completely naked out
of the tub, wrapped a large towel around her body and slapped Ranma hard
into his face.
"Pervert!"
She pushed him back out of the door.
"Macho-girl!" he shouted after her.
"Do you think I wanted to see you naked??!"
She closed the door and leaned against
it, sighing.
Another average day …
Slowly she put on her school uniform
and went down the stairs. She had calmed down a little and she had to confess
herself that she's been a little hard with Ranma.
Maybe it hasn't been his intention
to catch her in the bathroom.
Downstairs her whole family was already
awaken. Kasumi was putting the breakfast on the table so Akane arrived
exactly in time to get something to eat before Mr Saotome had eaten everything
alone.
Ranma gave Akane an angry look.
He was slandered and sure he would sulk the whole day. On his right cheek
glew a red mark looking like a hand. Akane blushed. She didn't want to
slap him too hard. She sat down as far away from him as it was possible
and began to eat her breakfast. Slowly, one after another, everybody stood
up to go to school or somewhere else.
As Akane looked at her watch she
noticed that she was really late. She jumped up, grapped her school
back and shouted at Ranma, who had fallen asleep at the table. His nose
was bathing in a cup of coffee.
"Ranma! Hurry up, we're late!"
Ranma jumped up exactly like Akane
had done it before. He rolled his eyes and mumbled a "Why didn't anyone
wake me up?" and ran after Akane.
As they reached the fence Ranma
jumped on it but kept on running.
Akane wasn't sure if she should do
it but at the end she decided that it would be better to apologize.
"Ranma?"
"What?" Ranma asked back slightly
annoyed. He was still angry because nobody had woken him up.
"I'm sorry. Didn't want to hit you
so hard." Akane said quietly while blushing badly.
Ranma looked down at her reproachful.
Then he began to grin. "I just don't understand why you're always as outraged
as if it would be something special to see you naked. I've seen you naked
often enough, you should be used to it with the time."
"Idiot!"
"Macho-girl!"
The average conversation between
the two of them continued until they reached the school.
"You open the door!" Akane ordered.
They were late and she didn't want to go in and break the silence in the
classroom first.
"Me? No! You go first!"
"WHAT? Open this stupid door now!"
"Do you wanna fight?!!"
Suddenly the door opened itself.
"Huh?" Akane made confused. "Who-"
Their moody maths teacher stared
at them angrily.
"What do you think you're doing here?!
Classes started fifteen minutes ago! And why do you cry around here? We
were writing a short math test. Thought you'd come a little late to miss
it, didn't you?"
Akane went red. "Uh… I didn't know
about that test. I'm late because-"
Her teacher stepped a little nearer.
"It doesn't interest me why you're late. You both come to me after classes.
Until then I will have thought about your punishment."
Akane nodded frightened. For a short
moment she could see Ranma grinning into his fists behind her teacher.
"And now wait here!"
He tourned away and stepped back
into the classroom where the whole class was standing on chairs or tables
to hear what was going on. (Of course they first took the chance to correct
their tests)
After the door was closed Ranma started
giggling.
"What??!" Akane shouted.
"You should have seen your face!"
he started. "Poor little Akane's afraid of her maths teacher! You've already
fighten against monsters and now you're tembering when your teacher is
angry with you!" He chuckled.
Akane hurled her bucket of water
against him with a snort of rage.
"You damn idiot! You have to visit
him after school, too!"
"But I won't tremble or have a nervous
breakdown when he speaks to me." he teased her.
He stuck his tongue out at her quickly
before he ran down the corridor.
"Ranma! You idiot! I really
thought you're a little bit more gentle or something!" she shouted after
him.
"You shouldn't think so much. As
an effect your brain might explode." he grinned before disappearing from
her view.
Akane was really hurt. But she somehow
didn't feel like running after him and fighting with him. AND she didn't
want to be caught once more from this idiot who was her teacher.
She stood there and thought about
a really good apology to explain that from her two buckets was only one
left.
Several minutes later Ranma showed
up again. He didn't say something, or better he wasn't able to say
something because the schoolbell rang exactly in this moment. They entered
the classroom and sat down at their places, acting like the other was not
there.
School was boring like allways so
it seemed to them like an eternity until they finally could go home. Everyone,
except Akane and Ranma who slowly walked up the stairs to the teacher's
rooms.
It's all your fault!" Akane said.
"Oh, come on, you'd rather care about
not to mumble that much when you go in there now!" he said nastily.
They reached the door and knocked
carefully. Their maths teacher opened. When he saw the two of them he made
"Oh!" in surprise. "I completely forgot to think about your punishment."
Akane sighed reliefed while Ranma
tried not to chuckle loudly as he saw the respectful expression in Akane's
face.
"Well, I think I've an idea! I've
heard you are Ranma's fiancee," he told Akane proudly, "so how do you think
about a nice honeymoon in the toilets? Tomorrow you two will help the charwomen
a little." He grinned nastily. "I'm sure they're needing some help." After
he had spoken out his outrageous judgement he tourned around and closed
his door.
"I can't believe it!" Akane shouted
angrily when they reached the fence. "Okay, I knew he is unfair but that
he would do this – no, really not!"
Ranma walked on the fence like usually.
For a few minutes nobody spoke a word.
Finally Akane broke the silence.
"What about a little apology?" she asked chilly.
Ranma didn't say anything. He compltetely
ignored her.
"What? First you tease me this nasty
and now you're pleased with yourself or what?"
"Oh, poor little Akane is hurt? I'm
very, very sorry."
To provoke her a little more he
asked: "What?! Do you wanna fight?!"
"I hate you." She only wisprered.
She expected a "Okay, let's fight!" or something but what she got was a
little bit different.
"IYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!"
Akane jumped back shocked.
"But…wha-what is…?"
She looked at him. His eyes were
opened wide and showed pure horror. She followed his eyes with hers and
noticed the reason of Ranma's scream.
Cologne stood a few meters away,
grinning, carrying four cats on her arms. The fifth one hung on Ranma's
feet.
"Put them away!" he cried full of
fear.
But Cologne only continued grinning
and started throwing the next cat after Ranma.
This was enough for him. He ran
away in horror crying and shouting like there was a monster after him.
After five meters Cologne stopped following him but Ranma didn't notice
that and kept on running.
Akane rolled her eyes slightly annoyed.
Ranmas fear of cats was indeed a little annoying. But the fact that
this little incident had interrupted their quarrel made her feeling better.
She wondered why she and Ranma always
had to quarrel. They teased each other where ever they could. Ranma was
not that stupid. She thought of all the moments when he was so nice to
her and they had fun together. He was handsome and sometimes really lovely
but it would be much easier to know if she really loved him if there wouldn't
be those pointless quarrels and fights between them.
Sunken in her thoughts she walked
down the streets. Her eyes passed over the pavement so she noticed the
shaddow a second before she crashed into the owner of it.
"Oh, I'm very sorry, I- Shampoo?"
"Yes, me. Hello Akane! Me want talk
to you alone. Have a few minutes?"
'Shampoo behaves strange today.'
Akane thought but followed Shampoo into the Cat Café. They enterd
and Akane noticed the little sign at the door on which she saw the word
'CLOSE'.
This was odd. It was Friday, normally
the café would be open. Inside was nobody else than the two of them.
Shampoo offered Akane a chair to
sit down and took herself place on a table. The air inside was musty. All
the windows were closed - and also all the curtains.
"It's dark here." Akane said and
stood up to open the curtains.
"Sit down!" Shampoo ordered sheerly.
"Me wanna talk about Ranma!"
Of course! Akane expected something
of that kind. After all they weren't what you'd call best friends. It was
odd enough that Shampoo wanted to talk to Akane so it was almost
clear that it had something to do with Ranma.
"Okay, what do you want?" she really
didn't want to hear it but she leaned back into the chair sighing and hoping
that she could leave soon.
"Keep it short." she said annoyed.
"Well. Ranma is mine, okay? If Akane
don't accept we must fight. Give up or it is too late perhaps. Shampoo
could injure Akane seriously." Shampoo said steady.
Akane went red in rage.
"I will fight! Not for Ranma but
I never ignore a challenge!"she shouted angrily.
'Who does she think she is?' Akane
thought. She wanted to stand up to show that she was ready but she somehow
couldn't move.
"Wha…what've you done?" she shrieked
shrill.
"Akane gives up?" Shampoo demanded
tender.
"I NEVER GIVE UP !" Akane cried.
"But you've never ever won against
me."
"And now you can't even move." another
voice sneered. It belonged to Cologne.
"Ranma has to deal with other things."
she added and grinned. "We'll be uninterruppted."
"What the hell is going on here?"
Akane sat there between this little China clan, not able to move, and didn't
understand the weird stuff they were talking about. Soo it was only natural
that she was a little confused.
It was obviously has bewitched her
or pressed some points to paralize her. But what was that good for? What
did they plan?
She was surrounded with two Amazones,
both of them with a nasty grin on their face.
"I will explain" Cologne started.
"About time." Akane mumbled.
"I just can't hold it back. I'm too
proud on my idea." Her nasty grin tourned into a proud one.
Shampoo just sat on the table and
watched Akane's face. Akane faced away.
"Ranma would hate you for that."
she wispered.
Shampoo hesitated for a short moment
but then her grin reappeared again. Akane thought about what she had said
and she reminded the last words she had said to Ranma:
"I hate you!"
Suddenly she wasn't that sure anymore
that Ranma would hate Shampoo for that. Fortunatley nobody else knew about
their little quarrel. Lost in her thoughts she suddenly realized that Shampoo
had started shackling her.
"Hey! Let that be!" she complained.
Shampoo only smiled softly.
"Okay honey, listen to me. I won't
repeat.", Cologne began. "My plan was to get rid of you somehow." Akane
blinked disbelieving. "Well, I happen to know that you can't swim so I
thought for a possibility to bring you to a place which is far away and
surrounded with water.
See what I mean?"
"A…an island?" Akane stammered frightened.
"Clever girl." Cologne agreed nodding.
"Oh no, you wouldn't do that! Nobody
would!" Akane's eyes widened with fear.
"Wanna bet?"
It was eerie. Akane's mind was full
os disbelieving and rage. She didn't know what to do. She was completely
helpless as long as she wasn't able to move. So she tried it otherwise.
"You know what? Kiss my ass but I
won't give up! Someone will come and rescue me!"
"Na, na, na! Shampoo made with the
voice of an incensed mother.
"What does Shampoo hear? Akane
would better be nice and friendly. Didn't Akane understand what we wanna
do? Akane is going to be put on a lonley island. How will someone rescue
you? Nobody knows where Akane is."
This was the causing sentence to
blow away any hope.
"I can't believe that you're going
to put me on an island. This is like Robinson Crusoe! Where are the cameras?
It isn't the first May, you know?"
"We know exactly well." Cologne grinned.
She sounded very amused.
But then Akane had an idea. It was
just like a little ray of hope in this dark room.
"Hah! If you take me to this island
the others will notice that you're gone. They'll have a hunch."
Shampoo looked nervous and sorrowful
now, but Cologne didn't even interrupt her grin.
"My dear! I haven't the intention
to take you there myself. A few good old friend of mine will undertake
this.
Shampoo sighed relieved. Akane had
already realized that Shampoo wasn't completely dedicated in Cologne's
evil plan.
"Why are you so terrible?" Tears
went down Akanes cheek.her world broke apart when she saw that there was
no chance for her. She closed her eyes and sobbed almost noiceless.
"Don't cry. You will survive, think
positive. We could also have killed you." Cologne made fun of her.
Shampoo opened her mouth to say
something but Cologne ordered her with a sign of her hand to be quiet.
"I'd really prefer that." Akane muttered
keeping on sobbing.
Shampoo stood up.
"Shampoo.Won't.Kill.Anybody. Clear?!"
Akane could feel Shampoo's breath on her face. She looked away, her eyes
filled with teard of rage. She tembered.
"Let me go!"
Shampoo looked deeply touched, but
Cologne made the tragic scene an end.
"Shut up now! I will make her sleep.
And Shampoo, don't talk to her, understood? She won't wake up until she's
on the ship of captain Joe's."
Shampoo looked worried. "Great-grandmother,
Shampoo is not sure if we shall do it. Shampoo can't believe that Ranma
will forget Ak-"
"Go now! You will thank me for that
in a few years."
Shampoo left the room slowly. Standing
right in front of the door she looked back to Akane. Her mouth opened and
closed as she formed the words 'good luck' with it. Akane screamed
as Cologne who was shaked with evil laughters hold a little blue bottle
a few millimeters under Akane's nose. Seconds later she fell asleep. The
world around her changed and she forgot all the things to worry about.
She dreamed a lovely and nearly endless dream but it should be the last
one of this kind.
* * * * *
Ranma reached the Tendou residence
gasping for breath.
"Old witch!" he growled. His feet
looked as if the cats would have done their work properly. Thousands of
scratchers were to see and his trousers hardly reached his knees now.
He stumbeled through the door and
let himself fall into the sofa.
Kasumi looked through the kitchen
door. "Ranma! There you are! You're late, where's Akane?"
"Dunno. I've been attacked by a few
cats the old witch threw afer me. Akane should already be here."
Kasumi put down the plates onto the
table and rubbed her chin sorrowful.
"No, she isn't. and she's not in
the the dojo."
"I don't care." Ranma waved aside.
"She hates me. So why should I worry about her?"
Kasumi sighed. "You two are quarreling
around all the time! She's your fiancee and when she's disappeared it's
your job to look for her."
"No way! I've had a hard day and
I'm not in the mood to search for Akane. Do you happen to know how often
she told me that she can look after herself?"
"Very often?" Kasumi asked carefully.
"You can say so. Well, now she can
proove it."
To Ranma the conversation was finished
then. But when he saw the worried expression on Kasumi's face he
tried to calm her down a little.
"Don't worry. Probably she just had
met a few friends and now she's sitting at Ucchan's eating okonomiyaki
and chatting like girls allways do."
"Perhaps you're right." Kasumi agreed,
putting the plates on their right places. "But she could have phoned me."
"You know Akane!" Ranma chuckled
a little.
"Indeed." She grinned and went back
into the kitchen.
Ranma sighed. He wondered how someone
could worry about a macho-girl like Akane. Not long ago she had to handle
with all the boys at Furiken and then she fought against monsters and eight-headed
dragons.
'Kasumi really worries about everyone.'
he thought head-shaking.
But after after an hour he started
to be unsettled as well but he'd never confess that it was because of Akane.
His heart nearly stopped beating
when he heard Mr Tendou stamping up the stairs.
"Akane!!!! Where is this girl? She's
allways gone when you need her."
He hit against the door. Then he
entered, looking as furious as a wild rhino.
"Ranma! Have you seen Akane? I told
her to buy my cigaretts before the shops will close, but this stupid…-"
"Dunno where she is. I haven't seen
her after school." he lied. "Kasumi told me that Akane didn't come home,
but – "
"WHAT? You know Akane isn't there
and you didn't search for her?!" Mr Tendou cried outraged. "It is almost
dark outside! You are her fiance. Look for he!r" he added furiously.
Ranma looked at his watch and wondered
how long he had been chased by the cats. Finally he nodded and went down
the stairs.
"I'll look for her. She can't be
far."
The whole Tendou family was sitting
downstairs watching him angrily while he put on his shoes. Ranma grinned
emberassed.
"Uhm… I'd better go now." he said.
"You can say so." Nabiki answered
mad.
"Great!" Ranma mumbeled sarcastically
as he stepped into the rain and changed into his female form. The icy wind
threw the rain into his face and he had difficulty in coming forward. With
his bad mood he walked up and down the streets shouting "AKANE!" every
five minutes.
After one full hour he had enough.
"Damned! Akane, where are you?"
He reminded the quarrel they had
had this morning and for a short moment he thought he had found out the
reason for Akane's disappearing. "No, that can't be!", he wispered. Then
he continued his search. When he asked Ukyou she only could offer him an
okonomiyaki. He even searched in the school and he asked every single friend
of Akane's he knew. But there was not the smallest hint of her.
If he'd go home without Akane –
he really didn't want to think about what might happen then. Mr Tendou
would do nothing else than kill him. He could imagine Nabiki standing next
to her father with a nasty grin on her face.
Strained he thought of all the places
Akane might be. He hasn't asked Shampoo already – but the Cat Café
was closed and why should Akane be in there? Talking with Shampoo was a
really unlikely possibility.
He began to hope that Akane was
already at home in her bed but as long as he wasn't sure he wouldn't dare
it to go home.
Ryouga was on a journey but he wouldn't
be a great help. Who was left? Ranma came an idea. He didn't like it but
it was possible: What if she went to Kunou? This pervert would do everything
to be alone with Akane.perhaps he gave her a kind of poisson so she loved
him? And now they…
Ranma made a nauseated grimace because
he couldn't stop his fantasy anymore.His mind was full of stupid ideas
about what could happen if Akane was in Kunou's house. Two minutes later
he was already on his way to the aforementioned house. He jogged down the
streets and in his hurry he totally forgot to change back into his male
form first.
It was dark now and Ranma really
hoped to find Akane before he arrived at Kunou's. He'd rather liked it
if she would be at home already. He was really worried now.
Out of breath he arrived at the
Kunou's house.
"Kunou?!" he shouted, realizing that
he had a girls voice.
"Pig-tailed girl?!"
Kunuo nearly broke the door apart
when he opened it. "Like I've allways dreamed." he said dreamy when he
spotted Ranma standing there dripping wet in the dark outside his door.
Ranma looked not very happy.
"Do you know where Akane is? She's
disappeared.", he demanded sheerly.
"Akane Tendou? The poor, sure she's
jealous because you're visiting me this late. But I will go out with her
tomorrow!", he shouted out in the dark. Ranma gave him a piercing look.
Kunou didn't seem as if he would conceal something.
"Come in, my honey." Kunou murmured
and waited until Ranma was inside.
Just to be sure that Akane was really
not there he entered.
"Show me your room!" he ordered.
Kunou had an expression as if a volcanic
eruption would take place on his head. He ran upstairs and Ranma followed
him. To his relief there was no Akane to see, but his relief soon turned
into anger. First he searched for hours in the icy rain, then, what was
the most terrible thing, he had to visit Kunou. And after all this he couldn't
find her anywhere.
"Damn! Where is she?" he asked himself.
Kunou interrupted his thoughts.
"I suppose it's your fault.", he
said convinced.
Ranma hesitated.
A second time he thought about this
possibility. He hadn't been this nice to Akane the whole day. He had teased
her and it might be that she was hurt deeply after what he had said to
her that morning. – But … how could Kunou know about that? Ranma was a
girl!
"Why…why do you think so?" , he asked
him with big puppy eyes.
"Oh, that's easy. She's angry with
you." Kunou said as if he was a psychiatrist.
Ranma was totally baffled.
"But why? We've only quarreled around
like we allways do. That's certainly no reason to run away."
"You didn't understand, girl with
plait. She's angry because she thinks you've more chances to go out with
me than her." he said, "but she has at least the same chances.", he added
grinning.
Ranma felt like throwing a hammer
after him. But Kunou's stupid gossip brought him to the idea that it was
perhaps his own fault that Akane had run away.
"Have to go." he just said faintly.
Then he opened the window and jumped
out of it with ease. Kunou watched his sweetheart with an outraged expression
on his face.
"You go?! Don't you wanna take a
hot bath with me?" he was near the tears. "You're pretty nasty to leave
me alone now!"
But Ranma didn't hear him anymore.
He had enough now. Despondently he went back to the Tendou residence. When
he arrived his heart nearly stopped beating.
There was light in Akane's room!
"ARRGH! Now you're in trouble, Akane!"
He somehow managed it to climb up
the balcony. The door was open a few centimeters so he could enter. Angrily
he hit against the door shouting "AKANE!".
The next thing he noticed was a
little black ball jumping fast straight into his face. With his unbelievable
reaction he kicked it against the door before it could smash his nose.
He was proper sure that the little black thing was knocked out. But when
he looked at it once againhe had to determine that the 'it' was nobody
else than P-Chan.
"Oh, Ryouga! What the hell did you
do?" Softly Ranma picked up his enemie and sneaked quietly into the bathroom.
After making sure nobody had herad him he stripped, threw his wet clothes
into the corner, washed himself with cold water and – hold P-Chan, or better
Ryouga below it.
With a short "SQUEEK!" the little
pig jumped back and shaked himself. He looked slandered at Ranma, tourned
around and jumped into the tub with Ranma following him.
"Brrr. That's been cold!" Ryouga
complained after he had changed back into his normal body.
"Just tell me what you're doing here
and why you've attacked me!" Ranma said. The hot water defrosted his toes.
His muscles relaxed and he noticed how tired he was.
Ryouga went red a little.
"Uhm… I thought… might be you were
a thief or kind of. I just wanted to defend Akane's room."
Ranma rolled his eyes. "And what
do you do here? Akane isn't there, is she?"
"Oh, I heard Akane's father roaring
like mad in the house. I understood something like "Akane isn't there!".
I just wanted to find out what was going on so I turned into P-Chan and
slipped through the door – "
"Ah, thought you could spy a little,
didn't you?" Ranma interrupted pertly.
"Let me finish! Well, I slipped in,
Nabiki picked me up and put me into Akane's room. I was in there for at
least three hours and I wasn't able to transform back. It was my luck that
she left the light on."
Ranma couldn't help grinning but
Ryouga didn't notice.
"Fact is that Akane's gone. She's
missing since right after school and nobody knows where she is."
Ryouga jumped up and with him half
the water left the tub.
"We have to find her! Perhaps she's
in danger! Why don't you look after her properly?" Ryouga didn't understand
Ranma at all. If he was Akane's fiance he'd follow her every meter
she went.
"Ryouga, I've looked for her for
hours and she's nowhere to find. Even her friends don't know where she
is. I don't know what to do now so tell me! Her family will kill me if
I don't find her. Please, ryouga, tell me everything she told P-Chan, every
hint which could help us to find her!"
Ryouga was baffled. He hadn't seen
Ranma in a state like this before. But then he suddenly smiled. "Ranma,",
he said, "you can tell the whole world that you don't love Akane, but I
won't believe you, never!"
Ranma wasn't able to reply something.
Not because he didn't find the right words but because of Soun Tendou,
who stepped into the bathroom. When he saw Ranma wenr red like a tomatowith
a bad sunburnt. He snorted like a bull.
"RAAANMAAAAA!!!"
Ranma jumped back shocked.
"Uhm…Icouldn't find her. I came
back five minutes ago."
"We are worrying about you two and
what do you do? Akane could be in danger and you are sitting here having
a bath!"
With every word he said he stepped
a little closer. When he finished his sentence he stood right in front
of Ranma, his eyes glowing with rage.
"If you are worrying all the day,
why didn't you search for her as well?"
Mr Tendou made a little pause. He
thought for a moment, but then he said:
"This is not what we're talking
about! Your father and I, we had other things to do!"
Mr Tendou blushed while he was speaking.
"Uh-hum, I suppose a shogi-day is
much more important than the own daughter." Ranma said reproachful.
"Shut up now!" Mr Tendou went a little
more red than he had already been, but he didn't lose his control.
"Okay, so what shall we do now?"
he asked and there was a hint of desperation in his voice.
Ranma left the tub as Ryouga had
done it before and wrapped a towel around his hip.
"Of course I will help you! I'll
do my best to find her, I swear." Ryouga explained ceremonial.
"Yes. We'll ask everyone to help
us and we'll find her, I'm sure." Ranma added. They were acting like all
hope was already gone and they'd be the last heros who were searching for
the beautiful virgin.
"You…you are so nice." Soun sniffled.
"My daughter… my poor daughter."
he sobbed into a pile of towels next to him.
"Akane, we're coming. Hold out!"
he shouted.
It seemed as if they all knew in
what a dangerous situation Akane really was.

END OF CHAPTER ONE
Puuh, this needed long… *exhausted*

but unfortunately school has started again so it will take a while. Until
then,
Nice fanfiction-reading !!!
