Ranma is quietly strolling down a street when everyone's favorite Eternally Lost Boy shows up.
"RANMA! PREPARE TO DIE!" Ryoga leaps to attack his rival, bamboo umbrella in hand.
"Aw, man! Why now?" Ranma groans and dodges the other boy's thrust, then kicks the umbrella from Ryoga's hands.
"Shut up and fight! BAKUSAI TENKETSU!!" Ryoga pokes the ground at Ranma's feet and it explodes violently, showering the other with shards of tarmac. Ranma grinds his teeth at the pain and decides to change tactics. Ryoga follows up with a vicious punch that Ranma parries and grabs. He applies leverage and the Lost Boy goes flying past him and through a brick wall. Ranma jumps up and yells "MOKO TAKABISHA!" just as Ryoga yells "SHI SHI HOUKODAN!" The green and blue ki blasts cancel each other out, but the fight is far from done. A bunch of headbands come whistling through the hole in the wall, and Ranma just barely slips out of their path. Then Ryoga comes barreling out in the headbands' wake just in time to catch Ranma by surprise. He connects with several powerful punches, knocking the pig- tailed martial artist back. Ranma recovers fast, and as his long-time rival charges, he spins in a perfect reverse roundhouse kick. Ryoga blocks with crossed wrists, but the kick is strong enough to stop his charge. Ranma screams "KACHÜ TENSHIN AMAGURIKEN!" and throws several hundred punches at Ryoga. The Lost Boy reels under the onslaught, and Ranma closes again. At close range, they again begin trading blows, back and forth, neither letting up. Major collateral damage ensues.

Trunks and Goten land on a rooftop at the outskirts of Tokyo. Leaping down into an alley, they walk out onto the street and start looking around. Goten remarks "Hey, I think that two of the ki signatures I feel are close by."
"Yeah, I agree. Come on lets check it out." Trunks starts up the street, and Goten follows.
A few people pass by, giving the two boys funny looks. Goten's spiky hair, red and blue fighting gi, and bo staff draws several stares, and while Trunks' black jumpsuit and blue jacket look pretty normal, his lavender hair and the sword strapped to his back looks pretty weird too. No one messes with them though. After all, this is Nerima; the people around here are used to seeing odd things, and these two don't actually look that out of place. However, Ukyou Kuonji, okonomiyaki chef and one of Ranma's fiancées, knows a lost person from a lost person… or people as the case may be.
"Hey! You two look lost. Can I help you?" Goten and Trunks whirl when a feminine voice suddenly speaks up from behind them. A girl, probably sixteen, with long straight brown hair, is poking her head out from the door of a restaurant. Whoa… what's with the weapons? The blue-haired kid has that sword, and that looks like a bo staff on the back of the other boy. Those things don't look like they're for show…
"Uh…. yeah, we are kind of lost. Is this… Tokyo?" Trunks asks nervously. He senses that this girl has a fairly high power level, for a human that is. {Goten, this girl, she's one of the ki signatures that we picked up before. Think we should introduce ourselves?}
{Hmm… you're right. Ok, let's find out what we can. This place REALLY doesn't look like the Tokyo I visited once.}
"Yes it is. Where are you trying to go?" Ukyou asks.
"Um… we're not really sure…" Damn that's lame!
Ukyou laughs. "You're not from around here are you?"
"Ah, no, definitely not." Trunks chuckles, and soon the two boys are trying not to puddle on the floor in their laughter. Ukyou feels a little better, now that these kids aren't so serious.
"My name is Ukyou. I run this okonomiyaki restaurant. What are your names?"
"Mine is Trunks, my friend here is Goten. Uh… we, um… we're kind of, uh, on our own…"
"Oh, that's too bad…" Ukyou starts to feel a little sorry for these two. "Hey, you want to come inside? We could chat for a while, and maybe figure something out…" her voice trails off as she realizes that they aren't listening.
{Do ya feel that Goten? That feels like a battle if I ever felt one.}
{Hell yea I feel it! We should check it out…}
All of a sudden, a loud boom batters everyone's eardrums; it's followed by the sound of concrete crumbling, and a few loud crashes. "What the heck was that?!" Both Goten and Trunks snap into defensive stances as they try to locate the source of the noise. Ukyou groans outwardly, but inside, she's gaping at how fast the boys reacted to sound.
Wow, their reflexes are as fast as Ranma's, and they're lot younger too! "Don't worry about it. Ranma and Ryoga must be going at it again. I swear, those two just don't know when to quit!" Ukyou is shaking her head in resignation. Trunks and Goten look at each other, then at Ukyou with a questioning look on their faces.
"You mean this kind of thing happens a lot?" Goten asks in bewilderment. Even Vegeta and Goku know better than to fight in the middle of a city!
"All the time. I just hope Akane shows up soon. She's the only one that can stop those two once they get started."
"Why only her? Is she stronger than both of them…" Trunks can't finish because Ukyou suddenly bursts out laughing.
"Oh that's a good one! Akane, stronger than Ryoga and Ranma! Ha! No, it's that both of them are vying for her affections. All she has to do is start scolding them, and they both drop the fight and try their best to look innocent!" Ukyou laughs a bit more, until another boom and several more loud crashes sound, much closer than before. She looks in that direction, now worried. "Oh boy, this time it's getting out of hand. And worse, they're headed this way!"
Goten is looking worried. "What should we do?"
"Get under cover. Come on, I know a good place…"
"RANMA!!! GET BACK HERE AND FIGHT LIKE A MAN!!!" All three wince at the yell.
*CRASH*
"ARE YOU NUTS RYOGA?!? YOU KEEP THIS UP AND YOU'RE GONNA HURT SOMEONE BAD!" Ukyou is looking very worried now. She grabs Trunks and Goten and starts running.
"SHUT UP!! I'VE SEEN HELL BECAUSE OF YOU!! NOW DIE! PERFECT SHI SHI HOUKODAN!!!" A huge green blast rockets through a building and streaks down the street, right toward Ukyou, Goten and Trunks. Ukyou is terrified. The rivalry between Ranma and Ryoga is about to get her killed.
"AAAIIIIEE—" KA-BOOM! Her scream is cut off as Ryoga's ki blast explodes with a deafening roar. The roar dies down, and several seconds pass in which there is no sound heard except the sound of falling rubble. Then…
"YOU F**KING IDIOT!!!!! THAT WAS UKYOU!!! SHE COULD BE DEAD BECAUSE OF YOU!!" In a panic, Ranma comes running through the remains of the building Ryoga blasted. "Ukyou!! UKYOU!!!!" He starts running down the street, disappearing into the smoke. "UKY—" WHAT THE?!?
Ryoga appears by the building he blew down just as Ranma's yell cuts off abruptly. Oh shit. I'm SO dead now. How could I have been that stupid! I should have known that Ranma would dodge that blast rather than take it like a man! Now I've killed a person, Ukyou at that! Someone who never deserved to die!
* * *
Ukyou slowly opens her eyes, not knowing what to expect. But whatever she was expecting, what she sees before her definitely isn't! Goten is standing directly in front of her with arms crossed. His hair is now blond, and is standing upright in spikes; gold flames surround his body. To Ukyou's left and right, scorched earth marks the power of Ryoga's ki blast. But the space Ukyou is crouched in, right behind Goten, is clear. Beyond him is Trunks, impossibly floating in mid-air. His hair has also turned blond, and is standing upright like Goten's. Gold flames surround him as well. He is turned sideward, as if he had shouldered the blast out of the way. Somehow, Trunks stopped one of Ryoga's most powerful blasts, and Goten protected her from the backlash. Who are they!? Are these two even human?! What's with the hair? They look like kids, but Trunks doesn't seem any worse for wear after stopping that blast! How is that possible?!?
"YOU F**KING IDIOT!!!!! THAT WAS UKYOU!!! SHE COULD BE DEAD BECAUSE OF YOU!!" Ranma's voice echoes about. "Ukyou!! UKYOU!!!!" His footsteps can be heard as he runs down the street. The smoke begins to clear… ""UKY—"
