Chapter: 3-The Decision Made by Kasumi… By: Chibi Akane-chan2
A.N.-Here is what we're all waiting for…the third chapter to this… "fanfic". Now minna-san…I made Kasumi make Ranma and Akane act like siblings together so although it's technical, it may sound like incest to you. So when they're acting like brothers and sisters on the outside their thoughts would probably be portrayed as lovers. Just a fair warning to you ppl.
Disclaimers: ::steps on the plagerism cockroach, looks at audience and waves hand dismissively giving out the Nabiki-like look:: You know what I mean, people….
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Ranma went silent as he hung his head slightly, his eyes away from a visible view.
"Well, Ranma-kun?" Kasumi asked again.
Ranma didn't move but his hands were anything but static. They were shaking very much and Kasumi stared down at them.
"……"
Hearing her silent reply, Ranma shot his head up and seemed to mumble something. After that, he slowly stood up and said,
"I'm so sorry, Kasumi….and Akane…I'm so sorry too….very sorry, but…"
As soon as he trailed off, he went over to Akane and slapped her on the left cheek making her hurl to the right this time. Akane didn't even make a move to touch her cheek. She just stayed there her hair falling to her face covering her expression.
Kasumi gasped and covered her mouth with her hand. Ranma stepped over the table to Akane and raised her cheek up to his face level. Both of their expressions were unreadable as they looked at each other. Suddenly, Ranma and Akane both cracked up a grin.
"Now we're even, kawaiikunee!" Ranma cajoled as he used his other hand to point at his still red cheek.
"Heh…well at least now I know I can get proper training without worrying that you don't have the guts to hit a girl, baka!" Akane laughed.
Kasumi sweatdropped and did her usual,
"Oh my…I guess you both made up…" Kasumi said cheerily.
When they heard that, both of them stopped in their tracks.
"Hey, Kasumi-san…whaddya mean, "made up"?"
"Yeah…there is really nothing to make up for, Kasumi-oneechan!"
Kasumi blinked and touched her cheek with her hand,
"Oh? So you both really don't love each other like fiancées should?"
"Of course not!" they both blurted out.
"Well, in that case…" Kasumi replied.
Both Ranma and Akane looked at Kasumi in question as she walked over to both of them. She placed both hands and each of their shoulders.
"Why don't you two love each others as siblings then?" Kasumi smiled.
Both of them facefaulted.
Ranma was the first to shoot back up from the painful connection to the ground and said,
"Are you crazy?!"
"How is it crazy?"
"Well…Akane can't be my SISTER…that'd be…be…WRONG!"
"It doesn't seem to sound wrong to me at all, Ranma-kun. I've been noticing that you two are acting like anything but lovers. It's more of a brotherly or sisterly love you both share…unless of course you both really do love each other as couples,"
Now this time it was Akane that shot up from her position, accidentally knocking Ranma to the ground. But she paid no mind to it.
"Of COURSE we don't love each other like that!! Right, Ranma?! …Ranma…? Where did you go?" Akane asked puzzled as she turned her head to different directions.
"I'm down her (here), shtupid (stupid)," came out a muffled voice from the floor.
"Huh?" asked Akane as she looked down, "uh…Ranma? Why are you on the floor?"
Ranma sweatdropped and staggered up.
"ANYWAY! Never mind that! The main point is, is that I don't love Akane as a lover!" he said frantically.
"Hai hai! I'd rather be Ranma's sister than THAT!"
Kasumi looked at Akane's way,
"By the way, how come you didn't hit Ranma yet?"
Akane face flustered,
"You expect me to hit him back after he hit me too?! So what if he hit me?! I'm GLAD he hit me! It was about time he got over his sexist ways! WHY IS THAT SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND?!"
"You don't have to shout Akane," Kasumi calmly replied, sweatdropping.
Akane sweatdropped too,
"Oh, yeah…gomen,"
They were all quiet for a moment after that. Ranma looked at both Akane and Kasumi and sighed in defeat. There was no way he can turn down any option like this…because Kasumi made it and he didn't dare to make her out of character like this again. She was the nicest person he knew and this came as a surprise. It just wasn't her and he knew very well that her actions surprised herself as well. Heh…maybe it's because she's also a Tendo.
"Ka-Kasumi-san…?"
"Yes, Ranma-kun?"
"I'll…I'll do it…"
Akane turned her head abruptly to Ranma her eyes wide in confusion.
"Do what, Ranma?" Kasumi asked in curiosity.
"I'll…"
"….."
"I…I…" Ranma stuttered.
Ranma gathered himself and looked at Kasumi straight in the eye.
"I'm renouncing Akane as my fiancée. Fro--from now on she'll be my sister,"
Akane just looked down. She walked to Ranma and held his hand in hers.
"Then in that case, Ranma…you'll be my brother…" Akane said resentfully.
