"Hey." Selene said to Ranma during their break.
"Hey." Ranma replied, getting up and taking her to the door. He showed her around the school and was now showing her the school grounds.
"I've got a question for you." Selene asked.
"What?" Ranma said.
"Have you ever had the feeling that you've met someone before and you yourself know that you've never met the person?" She said.
"Yeah. I have. I kinda thought that I met you before when you introduced yourself to the class." Ranma said a bit embarrassed to say that.
"RANMA!" A voice yelled. "How dare you court another girl, and leave Akane Tendo alone?!?!"
"That's Kuno." Ranma said shaking his head.
"It's Upperclassman Kuno to you, Ranma Saotome." Kuno said. "And who is this lovely enchantment before my eyes." Kuno took Selene's hand and tried to kiss it. Though he found that he was kissing his own hand, and his chin met Selene's foot.
"Don't ever touch me, Kuno." Selene said shaking her head. "Is he always like this?" She whispered to Ranma.
"Around some girls yes...round others he is a nutcase." Ranma rolled his eyes. "Why don't we just walk away, while he's still unconscious." Then Kuno jumped up and took Selene's hand again.
"I said..." Her fist was raised, and she was about to punch Kuno. "NEVER TOUCH ME AGAIN!" She swung a strong, swift, uppercut to Kuno's chin, which sent his chin higher into his face, and he went soaring into the sky. Sighing, Selene seemed content.
"When did you learn to do that?" Ranma asked. "I only know one girl who can send someone's chin into their mouth, and that girl's a macho chic." Luckily Akane was with her friends inside the building on the other end of the school. Selene shrugged. "So..." Ranma's hands were in his pocket. "Where are you staying in Japan?"
"I dunno...I'm supposed to ask my father's old friend if I could stay with them." Selene said shrugging it off.
"What's his name?"
"Something like Soun Tendo." Selene was changing her expression for one of confusion and joking.
"I know him. My father and I are actually staying with them." Ranma said his expression seemed to have brightened. "Say...do you know how to fight?"
"Yeah. My father taught me when I was young." Selene stated. "He also had this nutty idea of teaching me cat-fu." Selene noticed that Ranma's expression was one of shock. "Luckily though I told him to read the manual first before he taught me. He did and taught me without using the psyche damaging techniques."
"Lucky." Ranma said with his face turned away.
"Why?" Selene asked, completely confused.
"My old man damaged my psyche." Ranma said a bit bitterly. "He threw me into a pit full of hungry cats all tied up with Japanese fish cakes." Selene laughed, and Ranma found that her laughter was pleasant to hear and was contagious.
"My father almost tried that on me." Selene said as though she were about to tell a story. "I told him...read the manual I still want to have my sanity." She was wagging her finger in the air as if she were scolding someone. "I won that one. Though I guess..."
"Guess what?" Ranma was looking at her.
"That you have a fear of cats." She was smiling and was laughing.
"Yeah...and I kinda know cat-fu when my fear goes overboard." Ranma admitted. "It's useful sometimes, though I don't know what I do when I have it."
"Oh." Selene looked solemn. "Oh, well. At least when you do something embarrassing you won't remember what you did." She was tilting her head to him and was smiling. "So, why don't we finish the tour of this school before the bell rings and we have to go back to the retched classroom."
"Hey." Ranma replied, getting up and taking her to the door. He showed her around the school and was now showing her the school grounds.
"I've got a question for you." Selene asked.
"What?" Ranma said.
"Have you ever had the feeling that you've met someone before and you yourself know that you've never met the person?" She said.
