Chapter 01
A New Start
Nodoka Sanada stared out the windows of her home as she watched Ranma run off toward Macross High School. It has been ten year since that bastard Genma had destroyed her life and she is glad he was dead. Ever since that tragic day, she has been there for her son. She had given her son all the love that she had and given him what ever support he needed.
Nodoka sighed gently. Her son was becoming more and more like his grandfather Ken Sanada everyday. Ranma still practiced his martial arts but he also put as good deal of effort into his academic studies. Nodoka was proud that her son was so well rounded in mind and body. However she wished he was a bit more social. Ranma spent far too much time hitting board and book. She wished he would hit on a girl with as much enthusiasm. She wanted some grand children before she get to old to play with them. She gave another sigh as she thought how unlikely that would be.
Ever since his grandfather passed away last year, Ranma had become more secluded and had not hung out much with any of his friends. He spends most of his time working on the project that he and his grandfather had started a couple year ago. Even she hasn't seen what the mysterious project was. Her father and Ranma had kept a tight security on the hanger ever since they started that it and even now she still couldn't get access to the hanger.
She put that thought aside and started wandering if she could arrange something with Mrs. Nanjyoin. Mrs. Nanjyoin had a grand daughter that is slightly older then Ranma. Maybe she can get the two together. After all these were modern time so a little age different shouldn't matter.
'Oh! I can just see it now,' thought Nodoka as she started to daze off into fantasy land.

Somewhere on the street of Macross City Ranma almost trip as he felt a chilling feeling running down his spine.
'Damn! Mom must be trying to set me up again. I like girls and all but I'm not ready to get married yet. For Kami-Sama's sake, I'm only sixteen and would like to enjoy what left of my youth,' he thought. Ranma put those thought aside and made a mad dash for the school. He had never been late for school and he wasn't going to start now. Whatever his mom had planed he was going to have to deal with it later.
- South Side Of Masscross Island -
Over at the Macross City sea port, two figure sneaked off the cargo boat as the people were busy unloading the goods from China. The two figure made their way toward their destination via rooftop hopping.
The first figure is an extremely old woman in green robe riding on top of a wooden staff. While the other is a young purple hair Chinese girls that look to be around sixteen. The young girl is wearing a light blue kung fu shirt and white kung fu pant.
The old women stopped and brought out a map of the city and started looking over it. The younger one asked her great grandmother why she stopped and what were they doing there. Her great grandmother simply told her that she was making sure they were headed in the right direction. As for the second question, she replied that they they were here looking for her uncle. He had left the Joketsu village at a young age and wasn't heard from again.
Shampoo was a little surprised to find out that she still had any living relatives left. Her great grandmother had told her that his name is Max and that he owns a Chinese restaurant called The White Dragon. After her great grandmother was finish looking at the map, they started roof hopping again.
Cologne, Shampoo's great grandmother was deep in thought as they were hopping toward their destination. She didn't know what she is going to do when she find her grandson. Ever since he left the village, she hadn't gotten any letters from him. She didn't know if he was dead or alive. About a month ago, she finally received a letter from him. In it, she found a map of the city he was living in as well as instructions on how to find the restaurant.
- Back Over In Japan -
Over in Japan in a Tokyo ward known as Nerima, Akane Tendo was not in a good mood. She was still mad about the comment her older sister Kasumi made about her. Kasumi had told her that she was a spoil little brat and that she was afraid to deal with the truth. Of course she agreed with Kasumi when she said that Nabiki was a cold hearted bitch that care only about money, but still that didn't give Kasumi the right to pass those kind of judgments on her.
'Hmm Kasumi is just jealous that I'm the one who will inherit the Tendo Dojo. Who needs her anyway! I'm just as good as she is in cooking and cleaning,' thought Akane as she stomped her way toward Furinkan High School.
- Macross Island -
Back over at Macross City, a homely dressed girl with long brown hair got on the bus that was headed for Macross College. Kasumi Nanjyoin, formally Kasumi Tendo, was thinking about her life as the bus started moving. It has been three weeks since she had come to live with her grandmother. She just couldn't take it anymore back home. She had given up her dreams and what little social life she had for her family. In the end she didn't get anything in return, not even a thank you. While she was living there she felt more like a servant then one of the family members.
Her younger sister Nabiki only cared about making money and didn't care who she had to hurt to do it. She had always thought that Nabiki was just putting on a front as the Ice Queen. She also had thought that Nabiki was doing this for the sake of the family but that all change one day, when she found Nabiki diary while cleaning. She wasn't going to open it, but it slipped out of her hand. What see saw on the open page shocked her. After reading the rest of the diary she found out differently. On that day her eyes were open to the ugly truth about her sister Nabiki.
Akane, her youngest sister, was another story altogether. Akane had always been the princess of the family that got whatever she wanted. Even to this day Akane still expected people to wait on her hand and foot. She also refused to take the time to learn how to do anything properly, always declaring that she was the best and doing what ever she felt was right. Once she had tried a bit of Akane's cooking once and thought she was going too died.
Kasumi had always thought that she was going to be the one to inherit the Tendo Dojo. After all it was her that was taking care of the place. That all change when a boy by the name of Ryoga Hibiki came to their Dojo. Her father was impress by the boy's show of skill and decided that he would carry on the Dojo after he married Akane. Of course she protested to this and said that she should be the one to inherit the place.
(Flask Back)
Soun, her father, yelled at her for not being an obedient daughter and that she should not question his judgment. She put on a calm front and said "If that is your final decision father then I'll be moving out".
In a fit of rage, her father declared that she was abandoning her duty to her family. That she was responsible for taking care of the house and cooking the food. Just as Nabiki was responsible for taking of the financial needs of the family. Also that neither her or Nabiki were allowed to marry since they both have a responsibility to take care of the needs of their sister Akane and the Dojo. Her father didn't realize what he had said until it was too late. Nabiki just sat there with an expressionless face, while she has an angry frown on her face. Kasumi couldn't believe what she had just herd. She had given up so much already and her father wanted her to give up even more. She marched up to her room and pack her belonging. She then proceeded to walk out of the house and never even looked back at her yelling father. Her father keeps yelling out "You are no daughter of mine. From here on you are dead to this family. Never come back. you here me!.."
(End Flask Back)
After that Kasumi had called her grandmother at Macross Island and told her what had happened. Her grandmother had wired her some cash and Kasumi bought a plane ticket for Macross Island. Her grandmother wasn't surprise by Soun's actions. Her grandmother had also thought he was nothing but a fool and expected nothing less from him. With her grandmother's permission she was transfer over to her mother family registry, the Nanjyoin.
Currently she is on a bus heading to college. She had been given a second chance to fulfill her dream of being a doctor. Her grandmother has given her more love and respect then her family back at the Tendo Dojo ever did.
