Moving On part six
"Moving On"
Chapter Six: Interval One!
By Ranma Inverse
Dedicated to: Noah! ^_^ Hi hi!





Ranma had slept in, and when he woke up on sunday morning, he had slowly gotten up out of bed, slowly changed into his clothing for the day, and slowly walked towards the room where the Tendo's and his father would be eating breakfast. He walked in and stopped in his tracks.

Hikaru finished chewing a chunk of rice and blinked at him, swallowing, and then asking him, "What's wrong?" Ranma blinked, then shook his head.

"Nothing...but...how'd you get here?" Ranma questioned, sitting down at the table and beginning to eat. The question was left unanswered as a 'BWEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!" filled the room, and a black piglet with a bandana around it's neck ran down the stairs. Hikaru blinked at it.

"Oh..it's so adorable..." Hikaru smiled and held her hand out towards the cute piglet. "Come here, I won't hurt you." The piglet blinked and slowly walked towards the red-braided girl.

To the piglet, the girl looked to nice and had a smaller frame than female-ranma, and female-ranma didn't have blood-resembling eyes. The piglet stepped forward and pushed it's snout into the girl's hand. After that, he was picked up and put on the girls lap.

Ranma's eyebrows lowered, coming closer to his eyes, which also narrowed. "Ryouga what are you doing here now? Why'd you run from upstairs?" He grumbled to the piglet. It growled at him. Hikaru blinked and put a comforting hand on the piglet's head.

"It's name is Ryouga? Alright then...Ryouga, don't worry. I'm Hikaru." She smiled. "What're you angry at Ranma for?" She tried to move the arm that was in the cast, and flinched. "Ow.."

"Bwe?" P-chan looked up at Hikaru confused. Why was this girl bandaged up and living with the Tendo's? Was she related to Ranma?

Hikaru finished breakfast, thanked Kasumi for the wonderful food; stood up weakly and half-limped, half-waddled to the stairs and began slowly walking up them. Ranma followed. "What're you doing?"

Hikaru stopped and looked back. Holding P-chan in her bandaged but useable arm, she smiled. "I'm going to give Ryouga a bath. He looks a little dirty."

Ranma's eyes widened and he shook his head. Warriors code. "No, I'll give him a bath for you."
"Really? That'd be nice of you."
"Yeah."
"Thank you." Hikaru smiled and handed P-chan over to him, then slowly began walking back downstairs. Nabiki looked to Hikaru as she came back to the table and sat down. She was breathing a little heavily, but not so it would be easy to notice. Hikaru still had much time before recovering totally from the beating Akane had given her.

"So when are you going to start looking for a part time job and attending Furinkan High?" Nabiki inquired. Hikaru blinked. "I plan to go to Furinkan High tomorrow. I can manage. I will start looking for a part time job when i'm healed." She smiled. Nabiki smiled back. More money-making opportunities...Hikaru might become more well-liked than Akane at school. What fun.
