All Ranma ½ characters belong to Rumiko Takahashi. However this story belongs to ME!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ukyo couldn't believe her senses. Was she dreaming? No, her dreams had never been this good. Was he under some kind of spell? It wouldn't be the first time. Heavens knew he had fallen victim of many, especially with that Chinese broad around.
She narrowed her eyes.
"What, you don't believe me? Have I ever lied to you?" Ranma exclaimed with a hurt expression.
"Well-no" U-chan couldn't help responding.
He beamed "How bout it then? Let's go out, you and I"
U-chan could never resist his easy smile.
"Sure, why not"
And if this is a dream please don't wake me, she thought.

"You, my beloved, and I? Alone? Truly?" Kodachi, also known as The Black Rose of St. Heveke High School for Girls, was in high heaven. After so many rejections and obstacles (damn those cumbersome wenches!), her heart's desire was finally handed her quite unexpectedly.
Her prince had appeared at her door step with a bunch of roses as offering and a promise of a rendezvous she would never forget.
Kodachi was never one to question fate. Blushing she nodded her agreement without hesitation.

"You no can be Ranma" Shampoo stated flatly, crossing her arms in front of her breast.
The boy looked taken aback "How can you say such a thing?"
"Ranma never would date Shampoo" the girl confessed unwillingly.
The guy rubbed his nose "Well, I never did say I didn't like you, Shampoo. Just that I wasn't free"
"And now you be free?" the girl asked suspiciously
"Hell yeah!"
"What about Akane?"
"I finally ditched her" Ranma stated dismissal. "Besides, who'd want that tomboy for a fiancé? You are far better"
The girl's eyes lit up.
"Hai-ya! Shampoo so happy Ranma finally realized the truth!"
The boy gently disentangled himself from her arms.
"So it's a date?"
"Yes, yes of course!"

"I wonder what's gotten into U-chan lately" Ranma mussed out loud.
"What do you mean?" Akane asked.
"Well, she's -"
"Ranma honey!" called a voice as a long haired beauty approached them. Said beauty who usually wore male uniforms today donned a skirt and blouse causing the male student community to take notice of her. Of course Ukyo only had eyes for one.
"I made some special Okonomiyaki for lunch. Wanna try them?"
"Yeah of course!" Ranma was never one to refuse food. All thoughts fled his mind while it followed his stomach.
Akane smoked watching them leave together. Then it dawned on her. Why was U-chan wearing skirts?

Something was going on here.
Akane absentmindedly switched tv channels.
Why was U-chan suddenly in drag?
Nothing new that Shampoo dropped by unexpectedly- but this often? She glanced at Chinese-take-out cartons piling in the corner of the room.
Her eyes were drawn by the dark roses Kasumi had set on the counter. Akane knew what was written on the note that came with them: "To my beloved. A maiden's gratitude for the wonderful time spent together with her prince. Until next we meet. Forever in my heart"
She made a face.
You'd think she'd be used to girls chasing her fiancé. Never mind how many of them seemed to pop up at her doorstep threatening her peace of mind. Ignore the fact that the guy in question never showed any interest in the girls. As long as they fed him, he'd happily follow.
"Well, excuse me for being uncute and incapable of cooking!" Akane was of course working herself into a fit of anger.
She got up deciding a workout in the Dojo would help clear her mind when her eyes fell on an envelope by the table. Curious, she picked it up.

"Wonder what's the big idea of meeting here" Ranma mumbled as he waited by the tree which stood in an open field.
He glanced at the piece of paper in his hand trying to make out some other meaning it might hold besides the request of a meeting in such a place. The note had all the air of a challenge and of course Ranma was never one to back down even though his rivals of late weren't worthy of his time. Of course one should always take every opportunity to practice. And it wasn't kind to disregard someone's invitation.
Ranma grumbled watching as the sun slowly dipped and the sky turned a deep orangie yellow. Until he noticed a form outlined by the light of the dying sun slowly advancing toward him. Ranma straightened, clenching his hand.
"Bout time you show-"
"Ranma darling!" Kodachi exclaimed, throwing herself at the boy "How very very romantic to meet at such a place!"
"Ko-Kodachi! What are you doing here?"
"Oh you jest, my darling!" she laughed
"I have a bad feeling about this" Ranma murmured. He grabbed Kodachi by the arms.
"No, seriously!"
"Why, you invited me here last time" the girl explained, suddenly sober. "Why? Is something the matter?"
But Ranma's thoughts were racing a thousand miles per hour and the feeling in his gut (which had nothing to do with hunger) was intensifying causing him to worry more than he cared for.
"Ranma honey, what are you doing?" Ukyo asked in a dangerously sweet voice.
"Oh uh" The boy dropped his hold on Kodachi.
"I thought we had a date" U-chan continued eyeing the other girl.
Kodachi burst laughing "Surely you must be mistaken. My darling has invited me to a romantic intercourse"
"Oh yeah? It just happens we have a date here. Don't we Ranma honey?" U-chan interlocked her arm with his.
"How dare you-!"
The two girls glared at each other.
"Hai-ya! Ranma is only mine!" Shampoo suddenly appeared at the boy's other side "We go out together!"
"Hey wait a minute! He promised me!"
"We've had a previous engagement!"
"Ranma take Shampoo on a date! You tell Shampoo we meet here at sundown, no?" the Chinese girl batted her lashes at the sweating boy.
"Hey, that's the same thing he told me!" Ukyo cried out.
"My how strange. Those be the same words spoken to me" Kodachi seemed puzzled.
"Now hold on a minute girls-"
Three pair of outraged eyes pinned Ranma on the spot.
"How could you!"
"Leech, you betrayed me with these hussies!"
"Who are you calling a hussy!" Ukyo brandished her spatula. The others took a step back going for their own weapons of preference.
This was taking a dangerous turn, it didn't seem like their usual argument Ranma realized as their battle-aura seemed to grow out of proportion and envelope the whole area. He decided it was time to intervene before the affair got out of hand.
He stepped between them "Girls-"
Dagger-like glares stabbed him.
That's when Ranma realized he'd made a very wrong decision: he'd just given them a scapegoat on which to vent their anger -he glanced at their faces- make that their bloodthirsty rage! Ranma paled slightly.
"You two-timer!"
"I gave myself to you completely and this is what you do??"
"Aren't I enough for you, my darling? Must you associate with these commoners as well??"
"Now give me a sec-" Ranma was starting to have a cold sweat.
"Shampoo is very hurt!" The Amazon's daggers gleamed in the dying sun's light.
"Let us show you how our tender hearts are bleeding!" U-chan offered taking a step toward him.
"Allow us to share our pain with you, Ranma darling!" Kodachi's laugh had a shrill edge to it.
As far back as he could remember, Ranma had never seen the three girls agree on something (well, besides that he should belong to one of them). There was always a first for everything. Unfortunately at the moment he didn't feel like cheering their newfound friendship. In fact his first major concern was getting out of there in one piece, a chance the girls probably wouldn't allow him from the look of them. Actually Ranma would be lucky to get away alive.
"Ehm girls, I don't-" His next words never left his throat.
Ranma's last vision was of three angry beauties craving his body with more than just lust.

Akane looked around.
Why would Ranma want to meet her at the park at this hour? What would he have to tell her that couldn't be done at home?
A thought crossed her mind and she blushed. No, that couldn't be it! She stubbornly shook her head and waited.
The sun slowly dipped into the horizon, coloring the sky with pastel colors.
Startled Akane looked up and met blue eyes.
"Sorry to keep you waiting"
"It's about time you showed up!" she started grumpily "Took you long enoug-"
She stared at him. What was with him? She'd never seen Ranma with such a solemn look on his face.
She coughed "Well, now that you're here... What was it you wanted to talk about that couldn't wait?"
Ranma rubbed his nose and sighed.
"How can I say this... Akane, I want to break up our engagement"
It was as if the earth gave out from under her. Akane could only blankly stare at him.
"It's about time we cleared this thing between us. We never wanted to marry in the first place, it was all our fathers' idea to begin with. We shouldn't be forced into something neither of us want and it's about time we set things straight-"
"Ranma, how can you say... I mean, I thought after all we've been through and everything that..." Exposing her emotions was never Akane's strong point. She choked. Anger built up in her at the unfairness of it all and most especially at the one causing her such distress. She lifted her head.
"You jerk! Why the sudden change-"
"Ranma boy, what is this all about?" Genma Saotome demanded stepping from behind a tree.
"Just what I meant! It was all your and Mr. Tendo's idea, why should we have to abide to it??"
"Because it was a promise between men and we Saotome honor all promises made"
"Oh really? Does that then mean I'd have to marry all those other girls you promised me to?" Ranma demanded heatedly.
Genma was taken aback by the anger radiating from his son.
"Ranma! How can you talk like that to your father!" Akane burst.
The boy's eyes dug a hole into her. "Why, do you agree to all this nonsense??"
"Nonsense" sputtered Genma.
But it was if a dam had suddenly crashed and an irrepressible wave was washing over everything in its wake.
"And while we're at it, let me tell you the whole truth, Pops" Genma flinched at the sarcasm behind the word "If truth be told, you're not much of a martial artist. You never practice nor try to learn new moves. All you do is lay around all day playing chess or panda, cheating at both. You have no honor whatsoever (see the infamous "Saotome School Of Martial Arts Final Attack") You can't even face your own wife for Christ's sake! And as a father: what kind of parent would sell his own child for a mere bowl of rice?? Dragging his child across the world forcing him to train instead of living a normal social life?!"
Ranma's indignation seemed to rob him momentarily of words. He was shaking uncontrollably with repressed emotions.
"Ranma-"
"And as for you, my official fiancé, what makes you think you'd be desirable as a girlfriend? You're a total tomboy with a character to match your body. You don't know what's it like to be more ladylike (heavens, you can't even cook a decent meal!), gentle manners are beyond you, you like to beat up people instead of reasoning with them and you are as slow and stubborn as a mule!"
Ranma breathed heavily, trying to catch his breath and control. He looked at the two who were stoke-still and pale as death, and smiled with satisfaction.
The damage was done.

How did this happen?
Ranma dragged his battered body toward home leaning heavily on a cane.
How could this have happened to him, Ranma Saotome of the Anything-Goes?
His feet felt like lead, so hard to lift one after the other.
What had caused the insane rage the girls now felt for him?
His hands had a deadlock on the cane which was the only thing keeping him upright.
How? What? WHY??
And then it hit him: the perverted thief, it could only be him! Not only had he ruined Ranma's reputation of late, he was obviously trying for something more. Well, Ranma'd be damned if he gave him another change at it!
The boy's eyes shone with determination as newfound strength surged through his limbs.
Until he noticed three shapes coming at him, three well-known male shapes who's auras proceeded them like a choking wind.
Ranma groaned. This was definitely not one of his better days.
