Author's Notes.
Prologue
I felt I should respond to this:
From: Final-Fan()
Well, this is well written, and I look forward to seeing more, even if I am not sure I agree with the way you had the spring work. Why wouldn't he turn into Ryoko? Or at least a female?
That's not the way Jusenkyo works. When something drowns at Jusenkyo it creates a spring of that species. If a second member of that species drowns it becomes more specific. This is why the Shonmaoniichuan turned Genma into a male panda instead of a female panda. This also works for gender within a species. For example the Nyannichuan makes someone look like they would if they had been born a girl. When Akane created the Akaniichuan it made a spring that was specific about the form, the cursed person would look like Akane. Since Ryoko is the first member of her species to drown there the spring turns someone into her species. As more members of a species drown at Jusenkyo it gets more specific about the curse.
I also want to note that I wasn't sure if Yumi would be showing up again until today. I'll have to develop her character but she will show up in later chapters.
As for who gets Ranma, well, I haven't decided on that yet. ^_^ The only thing I can guarantee is that it won't be Akane, Ryoko, or Washu. The reason for this will become clear later in the fic.
Chapter One
I actually finished chapter one over a month ago but have been having problems with FF.net. [rant]You may notice the homepage dot mac dot com slash vgz at the top of each chapter and be wondering why I did that. It seems that FF.net doesn't want website addresses in fics since it cut out the address (and most of the fic) until I did it that way.[/rant]
Anyway, it will be awhile before I get chapter two out. I have most of Spring of Drowned What? outlined but haven't started the next chapter yet. Wild Cherry Blossoms 2 is still in progress and I've started on my third fic (and nearly finished the prologue) I'll be posting it on my site when I have a name for it and the pre-readers get through with it.
Ja Na.
