Hey everybody I'm finally back with the third chapter. Yay!!!! I want to thank all of the reviews I got. I'm so happy. I know I only have 18 but for my first fic I think that's pretty good. Anyway sorry I took a while I've had major writer's block and was in Dallas with the band performing at the cotton bowl. Plus I had all this work for school you know research papers and junk like that. Oh well I'm back now so here it is.
DISCLAMERS: I do not own anything of Ranma ½. I am just a high school girl. I do not have that type of talent. If I did I would not be writing stories titled "Ranma Starts His Period" so there.
Chapter 3
A Picnic With Akane
Part I: Pinball Fun
Akane knelt alone on the floor of the Tendo Dojo. In front of her was a concrete block. Her eyes were closed and she was in deep concentration. Finally she raised he arm and brought it down on the cement block. It smashed to ruble at her touch. Akane smiled.
"Well that's it for the morning warm-ups." She said.
Just then she heard Kasumi call to her from the house, "Akane, breakfast!"
Akane grabbed a towel from the corner and wiped her sweat on her way to the dining room. When she got there she saw her father, Genma, Nabiki, and Kasumi. But no Ranma.
"Is he still in his room," she asked Nabiki, "He hasn't left there for two days."
"Yup," the middle sister answered, "He's still in there going 'why me' he's taking this thing pretty hard don't you think."
"Hmph well he should get used to it. I mean its not the end of the world and it only lasts for a week at the most."
"Perhaps you could take Ranma out for a picnic or something Akane?" Kasumi suggested.
Akane looked up from her breakfast, "Why do I have to do it?"
"Because you're his fiancée," Nabiki answered.
Her father who had been silent for the remainder of the time because the conversation of his future son-in-law on his period made him uncomfortable jumped in. "Please Akane, speaking from a man's point of view this is a very big blow to one's ego. If you cannot support him now in this moment of need then how can you be expected to support him after you are married?"
"WE ARE NOT EVEN DISSCUSING THAT AT THE MOMENT!!" Akane yelled at her father. She sat down and sighed, "Fine I'll do it, but only because I'm tired of hearing him whine about the cruelty of it all."
After breakfast Akane went up to Ranma's room with the picnic lunch that Nabiki had made for them. She stopped outside of Ranma's room. Inside she could hear him whimpering. She knocked on the door.
"Hey Ranma, it's a really pretty day today I thought that we could go out and spend the day together." There was no answer, "Nabiki even made us a picnic lunch."
She heard a muffled reply.
"What?" She asked.
"I said I'm not coming out until my body stops being a woman."
Akane got mad. "Well then you're going to be in there for a really long time."
"I don't care, nothing could be worse than this?" Ranma whined.
"Now listen here Ranma," Akane yelled, "You are blowing this WAY out of proportion. I go through this every month so quit whining. An we are going out today so LETS GO!!!!!!"
There was a long silence and then the door opened. There stood Ranma in his normal sleeping clothes.
He glared at her. "You are SO not cute"
She smiled, "I know, now get dressed your not leaving the house like that."
He glared at her but went back to his room to change. A few minutes later Ranma and Akane left the house together.
"Well," Akane said, "What should we do first?"
"I don't care." Ranma replied in a gruff voice.
"I know, lets go play pinball, it's been so long since I've done that," She exclaimed and turned toward the closest pinball arcade dragging Ranma behind her.
Once in the arcade Akane began to look around. "Lets see which one should we play first? There are so many I can't decide." Finally she decided on one that had a Yu-Gi-Oh theme. She put Ranma on one that had a Pokemon theme (A/N: I know what you're thinking, haven't I done enough to the poor boy. As for the Yu-Gi-Oh I'm listening to the soundtrack of the show.)
They played for a really long time before Akane noticed that Ranma wasn't even trying and was getting a higher score than her. She started trying harder. Ranma saw her and started trying harder too. They're scores kept on getting higher and higher.
Pretty soon a crowd had gathered around watching to see who could get the highest score before losing their last turn. There was even a guy taking bets.
Finally Ranma and Akane were down to their last turn. It was pretty close and their scores were almost tied. Suddenly Akane missed and her ball rolled past the little stoppers (A/N: I have no clue what those things are called, you know what I'm talking about.) She had lost. The people in the crowd who had been cheering for her groaned. Those who had been cheering for Ranma applauded.
Akane looked at Ranma, who was still racking up points oblivious to what was going on around him, and sighed, "Well as long as he's feeling better." Then she put in another quarter and started another game.
Yay!!! I have finally finished the third chapter of my story. Again I am SO sorry I took so long. GOMEN GOMEN GOMEN *bows several times.* I've decided that I'm going to write the next few chapters about Akane spending the day with Ranma helping him forget about him starting his period. (Of course there will still be some little reminders). I got the idea for pinball when I started asking my friends what they would want to do if they were on their period and could spend the entire day in Japan (yes I even asked the guys) and my friend Danielle said she would go to a Pinball Arcade because there are so many in Japan. I'm still looking for more ideas of what they can do so if you have any ideas please let me know. Well that's all. Bye for now until the next chapter. Wow that sounds really corny.
