Here it is the final. Many questions will finally get answered. Who is the
ring for? Will Kane express her true feeling? And when will this writer
ever be able to visit Hawaii? All these questions will be answered
momentarily.
Also, I have decided, since I had so many responses, that I will be doing some fics over the summer. Since summer starts for me in like 2 weeks, I should probably rest up till then. I SHOULD is the key words there, but I have final papers to write.
Anyways here we go.
The ring chapter 3
"Akane I..."
Before Ranma could finish his sentence, Akane flung her arms around his neck.
"No!" Akane cried. Tear began to flow from her cheeks. "You can't. Please don't leave me again. I can't bear the thought of you not being in my life and I not being your companion. I.... I love you Ranma!"
"Akane..." Ranma was shocked by the girl's words. He said nothing in reply and instead wrapped his arms around her and tried to stop her from crying. The world around the two seemed to void. The only thing that existed was them.
The world around them was very distance indeed. For if Ranma was focused he would have notice a small ninja on the roof above him running toward the Kuno estate.
"Master Kuno! Mistress Kodach!" Sasuke ran in screaming.
The two insane siblings appeared and looked at their ninja servant.
"What is it Sasuke?" Kuno questioned.
"Yes." Kodachi added. "This had better be important, I was betting myself ready for the arrival of my darling Ranma."
"I bring distressful news." Sasuke said. "I saw Saotome Ranma and Tendo Akane and they were, they were..."
"They were what?" Kuno asked with anger is his eyes.
"Embracing!" Sasuke finally announced.
"NO!!" Kuno and Kodachi screamed in unison.
"That evil wizard, he dares to taint my sweet flower known as Tendo Akane." Kuno shouted, as he got lost in his usual world. "I shall not let this come to pass. Sasuke, get my saber."
"That hussy." Kodachi add to the already insane amount of mindless conversation. "How dare she touch my darling Ranma? I will not stand for this."
Moments later the two Kuno siblings bolted out of the estate, and made a beeline toward Ranma and Akane.
After what seemed like an eternity. Ranma finally brought space between himself and Akane. He looked deep into her eyes. They were a little red from crying. He always hated to see her cry. It hurt like hell.
"Akane. Did you mean what you just said?" Ranma asked.
Akane sniffed, smiled, and said, "With all my heart."
Before Ranma could reply a heckle was heard coming toward them. The couple turned their head down the road to see "the black rose" hopping down the street towards them.
"No," Akane shouted. "Not this. Not again." Akane wrapped her arms around Ranma's neck again. "Please don't leave again."
"Unhand her devil!" came a cry from behind them. The two broke apart and turned to see Kuno there. He was holding the same katana that he attacked Ranma with at the failed wedding. "I shall not all you to harm Akane."
A second later Kodachi arrived at there location and landed behind them. Ranma and Akane were in a pincer move.
"Akane," Ranma whispered.
"Yes," Akane answered.
"If we stay together, fighting side by side, then there is not enemy that we can't defeat." Ranma announced proudly.
'He wants me to be with him.' Akane realized. 'He loves me too.' "Alright. Let's do it."
"Right." Ranma agreed as he unsheathed his mother's blade. "You take Kodachi. I'll get Kuno."
In the next few second, Akane and Ranma launched a counterattack against the two psychotic siblings. Moments later, team Kuno was found launched into orbit.
After the little warm up, Ranma an Akane decided to take a walk in the park. The full moon was hanging high in the sky. It's light was beginning cast onto the park, causing everything to be illuminated by this peaceful light. Ranma held Akane's hand as they strolled thru the park. They walked until they reached the pond in the center of the park. Then the two turned and faced each other.
"Akane," Ranma began slowly. He was still a bit nervous about what he had to say. "Neither of us are good with our words. We're so afraid of being close that we keep pushing each other away, which just ends up hurting us anyways. "
Akane simple nodded at Ranma's observation. She didn't want to say anything that would cause a fight.
Ranma continued, "But I don't need any words to tell you how I feel." He reached into his pocket, got down on one knee and held out the his hand with the promise ring in the palm.
Akane picked the ring up with her thumb and forefinger and slipped it on her finger. She held her hand up to get a better look at the ring, which glitter like a star in the sky from the moonlight.
Ranma stood up and brought himself face to face with the woman he loved. Their arms interlocked around each other in a hold that could not be broken. Soon there lips met and couple expressed the first true kiss of their lives. They stayed like that for a while, just enjoying each other's warmth. There was few words spoken the rest of the night between the two. No words were truly needed to express the love that was there.
There would still be fights. And there would still be rivals, who would be jealous of the love they shared.
Still this young couple are not without hope. The pack that they have made through there actions, through there hearts and sealed...by a ring.
Epilogue:
Ukyo sat tapping her fingers on the table. She signed heavily, "I guess Ran-chan's not coming.'
She then got up and began to blow up all the candles that she had set up before. 'I guess he wasn't the one for me. I just wish I had a sign to show me what to do.'
All of a sudden a knock came from the restaurant door. Ukyo slowly made her way there and put her hand on the door getting ready to open it. 'Maybe this is the sign.' She then opened the door.
"Ukyo-san." Ryoga said in exhaustion. "I have been lost in the forests outside Sendai for the past 2 weeks."
Ukyo smiled. "You know sugar why don't you come in. I'll get you a hot meal and then we'll see if we can't both find a little direction in life.
The end.
Well?? I know this is probably one of the most waffy endings anyone has ever heard. Still It has helped me regain that feeling of accomplishment that I wanted.
Well first off would like to thank all who reviewed my fic. It makes me feel good to know that there are those out there who are not only reading my work, but are also enjoying it. Feel free to email me if anyone has any requests.
Anyways, thanks to all. There will be more fanfics from this writer coming soon. Still, until then I am off to Illinois, the destination, Rosemont for AnimeCentral 2002. I recommend for all to call. It's going to rock.
See you later, Space Cowboy.
