Chapter 4 Kasumi and Nabiki at work
Akane trudged her way home. It was one heck of a day. There was Kuno, male student body, Kodachi, Ukyo, and lot more people who made her life miserable. Akane sighed wistfully, hoping the next day would not be a "Where is Ranma?" day.
Akane sighed again.
'Baka . . .Ranma . . .' Akane thought sadly as she continued her journey home.
"Tadaima . . ." Akane greeted the moment she entered the house.
"Okaeri Akane-chan . . " Kasumi greeted happily and in a second it mildly faded and her cheerful face was covered with worry and concern. "Daijobu Akane? You look really tired . . . Did something happen?"
Akane just smiled, pretending that everything's okay. "I'm okay oneechan.!"
With that Kasumi took Akane's hand, saying. "Akane, these things will pass . . . you will see . . ." Her eyes filled with pity for her youngest sibling.
"Tadaima!" Nabiki greeted upon her arrival and a smile formed in her lips as she saw what was happening.
"Okaeri Nabiki-chan . . ." Kasumi sadly greeted.
"What's wrong Akane? Missing Ranma?" Nabiki teased.
"Oneechan! Why would I? I think I'm better off alone without him!" Akane quickly replied, regretting it miserably.
"Ooh . . . Chill down little sis! Don't say that or he might not come back!" Nabiki smirked.
Silence.
"What do you mean by that oneechan?" Akane asked curiously.
"Akane-chan? I thought you were better off alone without him? Then why are you all of the sudden bothered with what I meant?" Nabiki said, like squeezing all the juice from the pulp.
"I'm . . . I'm not bothered! I was just curious, that's all!" Akane replied, then left the room silently.
"Honestly, why can't you just tell me that you miss him?" Nabiki said out loud, loud enough to be heard by Akane but ignored.
Kasumi was also vexed by Nabiki's comment and decided to ask her what it meant.
"Nabiki-chan? I was wondering about that too. What did you mean by that?" Kasumi asked as she looked at Nabiki. "Do you know a cure for the curse?"
Nabiki just smiled and said "Let's just say, I know a remedy."
Kasumi can't help but smile at the thought and then quieted herself and softly said "We can't talk about it here, right?"
"Of course not. But I'm gonna be sick tomorrow just to make things little easier for Akane. " Nabiki said, her victorious smile not fading.
"Ok then. Tomorrow will be Nabiki's sick day." Kasumi quietly declared.
And both of the girls giggled silently, as they thought of their well-laid plan for the next day.
^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^
A/N: Let's fast forward it a bit. Ok?
~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^
Ranma still slept in Akane's room that night and like the other night, Akane hasn't gotten any sleep. And like the other day, she was late and everything had happened just like the other day . . . but not in Kasumi and Nabiki's point of view, because today was the day they'd implement their well-laid plan.
"Nabiki-chan? I thought you were sick?" Soun wondered as he saw the girl all-dressed up.
"Otou-san, I feel a little better now and I think I'd want to join Kasumi- oneechan and Ranma to the carnival rather than stay here and feel sick." Nabiki replied.
"Nabiki." Soun said with full authority as he stared at his daughter hard.
"Nani Otou-san?" Nabiki replied, simply cool and collected and ready for anything her father has to say.
"Will you buy me octopus puffs?" Soun said his eyes pleading.
Nabiki nearly fell off her stature and felt glad she didn't.
"Sure dad." Nabiki said, her palms waiting expectantly.
"What's that?" Soun said as his brows rose.
"Otou-san, You just told me to buy you octopus puffs but it doesn't necessarily mean that I've got to pay for it. Ne?" Nabiki said as she waved her hand again, waiting expectantly for the money.
Soun just resigned to Nabiki's will and gave her the money then after which, left, to resume the paused game of chess with Genma.
"Nabiki-oneechan! Let's go!" Ranma cried out excitedly.
"Hai. Hai. Hai!" Nabiki answered back while she thought 'Don't worry brother-in-law you'll be back to normal soon enough. It's good that Happosai is on his training trip, we will not have much of a problem.' And with that they left, the two patriarchs on their own.
~^~^~^~^~^~~^~^~
Meanwhile . . .
"Akane! Where is Ranma?"
" I told you he has chicken pox!"
"Chicken pox? You told us he had measles yesterday! Ohohoho! You are lying!" Kodachi laughed with all her might. Scary.
"Oh did I say that?" Akane thought out loud and later snapped back at Kodachi. "He had measles yesterday and today he has chicken pox!"
"Oh Ranma-sama! What fate you suffer in the hands of Tendo, Akane!" Kodachi said in her daydreaming mode.
Akane was about to open her mouth to say something back when Kuno pulled her out of nowhere and hugged her while he said . . .
"Tendo, Akane it is fate that brought us together. Saotome, Ranma you are an honorable man for handing down your beloved to me, knowing that you didn't deserve such a beauty. Oh Tendo, Akane my love!!!"
Stress marks appear on Akane's face.
'Patience Akane! You don't have to mallet him to Mars today. Remember you are not in the mood. You have no sleep and you're thing your life.' Akane thought while clenching her fists.
And when she can't take it any longer . . .
"PERVERT!!!!" Akane screamed as she sent Kuno to Mars with her ass-whooping kick.
"Tendo, Akane! We are not yet done! Come back here!" Kodachi shrieked as she saw her brother fly to where he belongs.
Then out of nowhere another hand snatched her and hid themselves in a bush before Kodachi can even follow them.
"Ukyo-san?"
Ukyo sighed. "That girl's gotta have a detector, she follows you everywhere."
"Arigato Ukyo."
"Akane Onegai. . . Akane-chan . . . can you tell me what happened to Ran- chan?" Ukyo asked, her eyes pleading.
"Umm . . . Er . . . the truth is . . ."
^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^
"Ran-chan why don't we ride the Ferris wheel?" Nabiki asked as she bought a cup of ice cream for each of them.
"Alright!" Ranma smiled and ran excitedly toward the queue for the ride.
"This is it, Oneechan . . ."
"I hope it goes well . . ."
"Don't worry it would . . ."
"Kasumi-oneechan! Nabiki-oneechan! Let's go!" Ranma chirped as he sat on one of the empty seats.
"We're coming!"
While on the ride
"Ranma, do you want some of these?" Nabiki asked with her impossible-to- resist voice.
"What are those?" Ranma asked while pointing on the absurd-looking red syrup.
"This is a flavoring." Kasumi said in her motherly voice.
"Do you want to try it?" Nabiki asked.
Ranma nodded and the syrup was placed on top of the ice cream. Ranma ate a spoonful of ice cream when he started to . . .
^Blink^
^Blink^
^Blink^
"What am I doing here?" Ranma asked, a bit confused.
"It worked." Kasumi said in awe.
"Welcome back brother-in-law! It's nice to see you back." Nabiki smiled at her achievement.
"Oi Nabiki . . . What are you talking about now?!" Ranma asked even more perplexed.
"Demo . . . Nabiki there is still a problem." Kasumi said pointing it out.
"Don't worry Kasumi . . . we're letting him know." Nabiki said as she lifted a mirror right on front of Ranma's face . . . "there . . . how do you like your makeover, Ranma?"
"Nyahhh!!! What happened to me?!"
^To be continued^
A/N: Well that's it. Hope you enjoyed it. Review or flame and enjoy Christmas!!! Merry Christmas! Umm . . . There will be at least 3 chapters more to come, so please bear with me, if you still can. But if you can't, you may find another fanfic that's worth your time. *sniff* *sniffle* ^floods^ Hehehe . . .
