I'm really, really, REALLY sorry!!! I was having this HUGE writer's block,
plus I was busy with school and stuff! It's been months since I updated, I
know!! Anyway, Chapter 4 of Beauty and the Girl!!
'This forest should be demolished! How can anyone walk in this place?!' Thought Kuno as he slashed another branch out of his way, 'Akane Tendo might be hard to get right now, but I bet she's worth the suffering!' he chuckled silently to himself. At least, that's what he thought he was doing. "Why is that idiot laughing like that? He looked like a maniac", Nabiki sighed turned her attention back on the road. She kept glancing over her shoulder at the young arrogant man, 'He's full of ego, that's for sure but.', She smiled slightly at the image of Kuno yelling at poor Sasuke for not seeing and removing the rock that he, Kuno, tripped over, 'yet, sort of cute. Not to mention not too bad when it comes to finance conditions either' She keeps on walking, secretly laughing to herself for the easy money she's making.
"Augh!!"
Akane screamed in fear, and smashed whatever that dark figure she saw leap at her with her mallet. She opened one eye to check on what she hit. IT was a little squirrel. "Oh! You scared me!!" She sighs in relief and gestures her horse to keep on going. "God, I'm such a scaredy cat! I'm a martial artist, for Pete's Sake!! Get a hold of your-what the?!!" She looked at the castle ahead of her, with beautiful gardens filled with roses and lilies. Akane's eyes was filled with shock and awe. "Oh my god! What a pretty castle!!" She guided her horse to the entrance, "Maybe dad will be here! It's, like, the only civilization between our town and the town next to us, which is miles away. I don't think he's there! He MUST be here!" She got off her horse and walked towards the door. She was about to know the door, but the door automatically opened. "It's like someone's expecting me or something! Hmmm." She narrowed her eyes suspiciously and walked into the castle.
Akane walked down the marble floor of the beautiful castle, looking curiously around her, searching for signs of life. "HELLO!! IS ANYONE HERE? I'M SORT OF LOKING FOR MY DAD!! HAVE YOU SEEN HIM?!" She yelled loudly. Her voice echoed throughout the castle. Ocean blue eyes followed her movement carefully from the distance, accompanied by 3 other strange figures of animals and another human. "Could it be?" The blue-eyed dark figure whispered, "Is it.She?" The animals and the human nodded silently. Their eyes kept following the girl as she was curiously touching furniture. "I'm finally going to break the spell.after all this time." "Honey, it's only been 2 years. Your talking like its 20" The other figure sweat dropped. "It feels that long to me, ok?!!" The first figure yelled. Unfortunately for it, Akane heard. "HELLO?!! ANYONE OUT THERE?!!" She called out curiously, walking closer to their hiding place. "Eep! Ryouga, Shampoo, Mousse! Create a distraction! Ukyou, you go inform pop that she's here! You'll find him playing with that new guy who wandered in that day!" "What're you going to do, Ranma?!" Ukyou asked curiously. "DUH!! Stay in hiding!! I'm not sure should meet her yet! You seen what happened last time I met 'her' first thing!" "You'll never meet her then, sugar!" "Ukyou!" "Fine, fine! I'm going already!" Then Ukyou's figure disappears. "Your queue, guys! Go!!" Ranma kicked the other animals out of the hiding place. A cat, tiny black pig and a duck with glasses on suddenly appeared before Akane's eyes. "Wow.Where did you guys come from?! Ooh! That pig is so cute!!" She picks up Ryouga the pig and hugs him close to her chest. The pig blushes furiously and gets nose bleed from being too close to a females body. (AU: sigh. poor Ryouga -.-;) "Eep!! Are you ok?!!" She shakes the pig repeatedly. The duck suddenly leaps in and slaps the pig with his wing, which wakes a very angry pig up and fights with the duck. The cat looked up curiously at the girl. She meowed loudly to get her attention. Akane turned her attention to the cat. "Hey! Your such a pretty kitty! These two giving you trouble?" The cat sweat dropped, thinking to herself, 'You have no idea' "Say, kitty! Since you seem like the responsible one, Have you seen my dad? a middle-aged dark haired man? He has a moustache and sort of long hair?" 'Eep! She's talking about that stranger that came the other day!'
~~~*~~~FLASHBACK~~~*~~~
Soun trudged into the castle grounds in the middle of a night. He had a traveler's cloak on him, so you can't see his face. He was hungry and thirsty, not to mention tired. He felt lucky that he found this castle just in time. But before he could even knock the door, he passed out in front of the doors. Mousse opened the door, "What's all this racket out here?!!" He looked down without his glasses on at the figure. "Oh my god!! Could it be a.a.GIRL?!!" HE picked up the figure over his shoulders and ran as fast as he could with the weight on his back to the living room, where everyone else was sitting talking. "LOOK EVERYBODY!! A wandering strange girl!! She's going to break the curse!! WOAHOO!!" He dances around happily after laying the stranger on a sofa. "YIPPEEE!! I'LL BE A FULL MAN AGAIN!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA" Ryouga laughed like a maniac. "I don't know, guys. You can't tell if it's a guy or a girl with that cloak on. We cant even see the face of this stranger." Ukyou said, looking at the stranger curiously. "Hey look! It has long hair! It has to be a girl!" Genma picked up the strand of hair the sneaked out of the cloak's opening. "Mousse has long hair. Long hair doesn't mean Mousse is girl, yes?" Shampoo stated, pointing at Mousse's hair as evidence. "What's all this racket about? I'm trying to sleep. And what the hell is that?!!" Ranma's eyes practically burst out of his sockets when he saw the sleeping stranger, "Is that a.girl?!" "We don't know. Ranma go check for himself." Shampoo replied, folding her arms over her chest. "Well, check if it has a chest! If its flat, it's a guy, if there's something, well it's a girl!" Ukyou stated. "Hey I ain't a pervert! I ain't gonna touch some girl's chest!" "Fine! I will!" Ukyou stepped closer to the body and touched its chest. She gasped, "Oh my god! Your right! It is a girl!!" "OH YES!!!!!" Ranma, Ryouga, Mousse and Genma yelled out in unison. "Ok, Ranma! You go sweep her of her feet before she even wakes up!! The sooner she falls in love, the better!" Genma pushed his son towards the figure. "Make your dad proud!" "Pop!!!" "GO SON!! DO YOU WANT TO BREAK THIS CURSE OR NOT?" "FINE!! Geez.," He faces the cloaked figure's face. "Erm. Wake up, lady! Are you ok?" Ranma gulped. He really hated the things he has to do to get back to normal. Soun grunted and opened his eyes but couldn't see anything from the cloak. He couldn't hear the voice clearly either so he thought it was a girl. He replied, "Why, yes.I just need a little food and rest, that is all." "Isn't that a little deep voice for a girl?" Shampo whispered to Ukyou. "Maybe she has a cold. It has been raining pretty awfully lately" Ukyou whispered back. "Erm.Can you please take off your cloak so I can look at your face?" Ranma said, gulping loudly. "oh.. of course!" Sounds pulled down the cloak slowly off his face and looked straight at the face of a dark haired pigtailed boy. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !" Both of them screamed at the top of their lungs. Ranma almost had a heart attack ad fell back too shock to make any move at all. Soun on the other hand, could. "Where in the world am I?!" "I knew he was a guy!!!!" Ukyou cried out triumphantly. "GAAH!! It's a GUY!!!" Mousse, Genma and Ryouga yelled, pointing at Soun. "Hayaaaaa.." Shampoo sighed, somehow much calmer than everyone else.
~~~*~~~END OF FLASHBACK~~~*~~~
"Meow!!" Shampoo the cat meowed loudly in replay. "Is that a yes?" Akane said excitedly, "Is he okay?" "meow!" The cat replied. "Oh thank goodness! Where is he?" "Reow!!" Shampoo cried out to Ryouga and Mousse. The two stopped fighting and looked at her. "Meow!!" she run off farther into the castle, the pig and the duck running behind her, quacking and squealing. "HEY WAIT!!" Akane cried out and ran after the three strange animals.
There you go!! CHAPTER 4!! Yay!! I'll try my best to finish my 5th chapter soon!! Again, I apologize for updating so late! PLZ R&R!! I always feel great when I read your reviews!
