Notes:
This is an AU story line of Ranma 1/2. Beware of my rotten spelling and

Yes, in this story Herb-sama was one hundred percent female. And Shampoo was
not the only Amazon Ranma defeated. Now gone with the story.

Kasumi hummed the little tone she had heard her mother use to hum when she
was still alive. She put the last dried dish in the cupboard and pour herself
a cup of tea as she sat by the living room table and remembered what had
happened in dinner last night with their guests.
At first she had thought that Ranma was at least the same age as she but
when he came down the stair yesterday. He looked like he was just barely
older than Akane. He wore a plain yet elegant white kimono decorated only by
the two swords hung by his side. He had long raven hair reach down his back
and a pair of most beautiful blue eyes that she had ever saw.
She found herself have the sudden urge to serve him, not as a husband but as
a lord...a master. She could felt the air of superiority surrounding him.
And she found herself perfectly content with the thought of being his servant.
This was not the first time she had felt these urges and since she was a kid
she found out that these urges were something similar to a sixth sense. Her
Urge was always right and she believed them.
And she wondered what does his cursed form look like if she was going to
serve him in the near future she might as well getting use to his cursed
form...
In a long time Kasumi smiled. Not the pretty little smile she put on when
other people were around but a true smile that came from the heart. This was
the first time in her life she made a decision by herself alone that will
change her life forever...
...she will serve Ranma...
...her lord...
*~*~*
Nabiki shook her head as she dragged her unconscious sister to the nurse
office. Akane tried to attack Ranma from behind, as she was so sure that the
young Saotome didn't notice her.
But a hard blow to her stomach and knocking her out cold rewarded her.
She had heard what happened to Kuno as her associate in that class had
informed her. She was not surprise at Ranma's action but she didn't expect
her sister to attack someone from behind.
And mostly her spoil sister had attacked Ranma, someone who was far stronger
than her.
She was grateful that Ranma didn't do more than just knocking Akane out cold.
According to Akane's honorless action he could easily break her bones or
simply cripple her which he did have the power to do so.
And no one could say anything since Akane had ask for the
punishment by attacking her opponent from behind.
Oh well, the spoil princess should learn that she was not the best in
Nerima any more since she never was the best in the beginning.
*~*~*
Ranma walked down the street of Nerima. School was over five minutes ago and
he had left with out the Tendos. During lunchtime he had pick up a familiar
smell carried by the wind. He was determined to find the source.
He was so sure it belongs to someone he knew but why would she be here?
Didn't he tell her to wait for him to come back?
He let his nose to guide him to the source as it led him to a building which
look like was under renovation and a new sign was hanging above the front
door.
/Thyme Café? Hmm... could it be her? /
Ranma's suspicion was confirm as he watch a young girl dressed in familiar
clothing of the Musk walk out of the building and her hair was a interesting
mix of blue, white and pink there was no way he could have mistaken her for
someone else.
Ranma's lip form into a small smile. So she did follow him to Japan...something
he had expected from the stubborn Musk princess. He quietly used his stealth
skill and sneak behind her...
*~*~*
Herb sighed as she rubbed her sore shoulder. She was too tired today; she
will begin her search tomorrow for her husband.
She kept rubbing her shoulder trying to loosen the tight muscle and she
jumped when she felt another hand on her shoulder. She dropped into defence
stance and faced her opponent.
Her eyes widened as she watched the cloaked figure push his hood back and
reveal her opponent's face...
" Ranma!" Herb jumped into her husband's open arms as she gave him a
bone-crushing hug.
Ranma smiled as he returned her hug. He nodded at the two male warriors of
Musk who had heard her yell and come out to make sure she was safe. Lime and
Mint nod back at Ranma as they resumed back to their work and leave the
couple alone.
" I...miss you, Ranma..." Herb finally looked up at her husband with teary
eyes. She was ready to search every inch of Japan to find him and yet he
came to her on the exact day she had landed on this land.
" I miss you too, Herb..." Ranma burried his face in the princess' hair as he
take in her familiar sense. He never would have thought he will missed seeing
his Musk wife. A wife he had pick up shortly after he got the curse.
He was running away from the cursed training ground after he beat ever inch
of life out of Genma.
He didn't know where he was going. He was too angry to care anyway. He think
he knock a couple of girls out on the process because they were standing in
his way.
He didn't even realised that he had defeated Herb in the tournament of the
Musk and he only realised that he was supposed to marry the Musk princess
since he beat her in the tournament mainly to find herself a worthy husband.
Oh well, Herb's pretty nice to him so he didn't opposed the marrige...
But it ended as Genma sneak into the Musk's palace and dragged him off in
middle of the night one month after he was married to Herb.
And he had make sure that Genma did get the end of his displease...
*~*~*
Cologne sighed as she hung up the phone. She had been on the line with the
'local snake' as the chinese tent to called the one who rule the underground
in the area. And she was rewarded with a name, address, and a phone number.
/...Nabiki Tendo...of the Tendo Anything Goes Martial Art.../
Cologne closed her eyes as she sipped her now cold tea. It had been a long
time since she had came across with the Anything Goes practitioners... And
she really didn't expect to faced the student of the only man that she came
to hate...
And...
...Love in her three hundred years of existence...
" Happosai..."
*~*~*
Mean while in the out skirt of Nerima a slime figure with a giant spatula
strapped to his back walk down the street with a frown on his face.
"...I'll have my revenge Saotome..."
*~*~*
Dr. Tofu smiled as he watched the youngest Tendo exist his clinic. It had
been almost ten years since he first met the girl. He was not as oblivious
as people thought he was. He had long noticed Akane's interest in him. But
he had his eyes fixed on someone else...
Tofu took out the silver locket and flip it open as he stared at the picture
inside...
"...I wish I could tell you..."
*~*~*
Ranma looked down at the Musk princess who was asleep in his arms. They
had been talking since they found eack other this afternoon. And they stopped
only because Herb was too tired and fell asleep in his arms while they're
watching the sun set on the roof of the cafe.
Ranma noted that she looked really tired. The bags under her eyes didn't
escape his eyes. He wondered when was the last time she got a good night
sleep.
He carried his wife back into the café he acknowledge Lime and Mint with a
nod as he settled the Musk girl into her room.
He gently lay her on her bed as he pull the blanket to cover her. He didn't
leave until he heard the coughing sound of Mint from the door. Ranma bended
down and kiss his wife's cheek then striaghten himself as he leave the room.
" What happened since I left China?" Ranma silently asked the two Musk males
as he let Herb take her rest.
Mint being the smarter of the two gestured them both to follow him to his
room. He sat down on the floor followed by the other two.
" Since that fat man dragged you off Herb-sama was getting more depress every
day. She would stared at the sword you gave her after the wedding all day
and not talk to anyone.
Frankly Queen Ginger was getting worried and after Herb-sama stopped talking
for a week her majesty decided to let her come to find you. So her daughter
would return to normal.
And both Lime and I volunteered to go with her and protect her from potential
harm during her quest."
Ranma was silent after hearing what the smaller Musk warrior's explanation.
He knew that his departure was hard on Herb but he didn't expect to effect
her that much...
His thought was cut short as Mint spoke to him.
" So what happened to you Ranma?" Ranma smirked as he told his side of the
story.
" Well you already knew that Genma was an idiot and being his moronic self..."
Ranma's smirk grew even wider as he notice the huge battle aura on both of
the Musk warriors as he continue to tell them what had Genma done since they
left China.
After finished hearing what had the elder Saotome done to their princess'
husband the two Musk warriors decide to have a very long 'talk' with that
lazy panda.
Mint was thinking of all those forbidden torture methods that the Musk had
banned all those years ago and perform them on certain cursed panda-changing
man while Lime was thinking to get a new panda rug to decorate the living
room.
*~*~*
Herb on the other hand was in rage. How dare that fat ass panda man sold her
husband to feed his fat stomach. And that not only happen once but on
countless occasions.
Ranma didn't say it out loud but it seems that happen quit often from the
way he talks.
Musk people had a strong sense of family value. While selling your family
out to feed one's own need would be ban as traitor and would have been
punished.
Herb, the crown princess of the Musk dynasty will personally make sure of
that.
She had waked up some time during the conversation in Mint's room. Her
excellent hearing had pick up most of the conversation quit clearly. And
after what she had heard she was too angry to fall back to sleep again.
During the time Ranma had stayed with her he never mention much of his life
with his father. And she didn't ask him about it since it made him uneasy.
But she had never thought that piece of fat was this bad.
If she had known she wouldn't even let Ranma leave with that bald moron in
the first place!
And she would skin him alive and put him in boiling oil.
She sat on her bed and fixed her clothes as she lightly caressed the katana
beside her. There was an unreadable gleam in her eyes and some where in the
Tendo dojo Genma Saotome sneezed.

Yes, I know I mess it up...but this is a AU Ranma fic, and I was allowed to

As some of you might notice I mess up big time with the pairings. And I asure
you there will be more chaos than ever in the up coming parts...
