Well, I'm back with Chapter 3. I need to change my fic status in my
personal review. I just got done watching Ruroni Kenshin, had nothin' else
to do so came downstairs to write my fic. By the way, I'm gonna try and
hit 10000 words with this chapter so that means I gotta have at least 6000
in one chapter. That's gonna be tough but I think I can handle it. Well,
as for comments, I know Gendo and Ranma in high school together is kind of
overdone, but. Oh well. I didn't say Gendo was Gosunkugi, I said he was a
wimp like Gosunkugi. Jeez you read it wrong! (Or it could be that I put up
a second draft with out you people noticing it! BWA AHAHAH HAHAH. e hem)
Well anyway on with the show.
Confutious say: Your life is the Cherries while mine is just the pits.
Chapter 3: Be for the Fight
"HEY WAKE UP!" Ranma cried as he poured some water both of the unconcious bodies lying on the ground.
Asuka sat right up. Coughing a few times she said, "Misato! I just had the weirdest dream that a girl turned into this boy right here!"
"She did," Misato replied calmly.
Asuka Langley Soryuu, was a bit confused. "So your saying that girl turns into this guy right here?"
"No, this GUY right here turns into that GIRL!" Ranma said.
"Jeez, what's with you?" She asked.
Meanwhile, Shinji slept blissfully unaware, nomatter that he was wet.
"Asuka, this is Ranma, the fourth child, and he'll be staying here," Misato said.
"Ugh! Another one! Misato we don't have enough room!" Asuka screeched.
After getting herself up off the floor and readjusting herself she took a look at the new child.
"Hmm, not bad, I've seen better built men before, though," she said. "But really, now, whatever happened to that girl?"
Ranma, was really angry. What did she mean, better builds? HE WAS THE BEST THERE WAS!. Wait. When he was 18 he was the best there was. She must be talking about older men. Now he was short and, while he still probably had the best looks of his age, fell short when compared to the strong looking people at the age of 16 and up to about 20. Past that were too old he guessed.
"Really, Asuka this boy is that girl. Though why he changes he still hasn't told me, he definantly turns into a she," Misato said.
"Misato, I think you're a little bit old for fairy taaaAAAHHHH HEY WHAT DID YOU DO THAT FOR! GAK!" Asuka shouted. Misato had poured water on Ranma.
"Y,yy, you just changed into a girl!" Asuka stuttered.
"Yeah, Chinese curse. Works really well when ya wanna freak someone out, but other than that." Ranma let it go unfinished as he looked at her and smirked.
"Hey, but.. how did this happen?" Asuka asked baffled.
Ranma really didn't wanna tell the story twice so he, she at the moment, decided to wake the boy. After shaking him a few times, and him still not waking up, Ranma just picked the boy up, stood him up straight and punched him lightly in the stomach. Or course, light for Ranma is a hospital for Shinji.
His eye shot open as he grabbed his stomach. Seeing red hair and thinking it as Asuka, mixed with the fact that the boy wasn't really awake, Shinji shouted, "Asuka what did you do that for!"
Asuka blinked. "It wasn't me Shinji. And you deserved it anyway. Sleeping at a time like this?"
"But.. I," Shinji started but was interupted.
"Hey, I'm Ranma. So your Shinji? Well, nice too meet you," Ranma said.
"Uh, hey wait. Your that girl from yesterday! Nice too meet you, too. Hey Misato, what happened too that boy?" Shinji asked finally getting over his stomach pain. For some reason Shinji didn't understand, The Ranma smacked her forhead.
"Did I say something wrong, miss?" he asked not knowing that what he just said there was what was wrong.
"Shiji, Asuka, promise me you won't feint," Misato said.
"Huh? Why?" they both asked at the same time.
"Ranma has a little problem with water. He swiches gender when hit with a certain temperature of water," Misato said. For some reason she was taking this very calmly.
"Ok this is kinda hard to believe," Asuka said.
"But, why would Misato lie to us, Asuka?" Shinji asked.
"I don't know but there is no way that girl turns into a guy! It's just not possible!" Asuka returned even though she had just seen the opposite. Asuka was sure this was some kind of trick Misato was playing, but if it was why would she do it? Just for fun? No, that's not like Misato. Then what?
Asuka walked up to Ranma in a posture she thought was intimidating. Ranma being used to Akane, paid it no mind. "Ranma, was it? Your trying to tell me that you actually turn into a guy when your hit with water?"
"Actually, It's hot water," Ranma replied giving once again the smirk.
"Allright I'm going to show you this one more time," Misato said coming back with a pitcher of hot water, "now don't feint!"
"Ok, Misato," they both said.
Ranma found himself, once again, splashed with water. This time it was hot, but not too hot. Shinji and Asuka watched as this seemingly short girl grew back into the muscular fourteen year old boy.
"That doesn't happen everyday." Shinji commented. He and Asuka were taking it rather calmly this time around. Well make that Shinji was taking it calmly. Asuka's eyes bugged out at the proof that magic really did exist.
"H..H.How did this happen. HOW DID YOU DO THAT!" She screamed.
"Well it all started when, uhh you may wanna sit down this is gonna take a while, when me and my pop when on a ten year training trip. Close to the end of our trip we went to the legendary training ground called Jousenkyo.(2 hours and a few bowls of milk and cookies later. and that's how I ended up here four years younger than I should be," Ranma finished.
"I feel sorry for you Ranma," Shinji said.
"Naw, it ain't all that bad," Ranma replied.
Asuka forgot about not believing this guy about an hour into the story. It was far too elaborate and detailed to be fake. She was somewhat skeptical about how Ranma had gotten here, and about the people turning into animals but. there was no real other explaination.
"They should turn your life into a movie," Misato said.
"Yeah but I'd rather they not."Ranma replied.
"So what's going to happen now? What are you going to do?" Asuka asked.
"Well, first I'm gonna help you people get rid of your angel problem, then I'm gonna look for any survivors of Nerima. Or which ever comes first," Ranma answered.
"Well then, Saotome, welcome home for now," Asuka said. Asuka found that after listening to this boy for two hours all the adventures. Fighting against Herb and Saffron. Ryoga and Mousse. The guy must've been a god if all that was true. She found herself really liking the guy. Not as much as Koji but still.
******************
It was the next day and Ranma was in a rather bad mood. Him and Shinji were outside on the upper level of the apartment leaning against the fence.
I'M BORED! WHY DOESN'T ANY THING HAPPEN HERE! Ranma was at the breaking point. He was bored stiff. If something didn't happen soon, he'd go insane.
"WHY DOESN'T ANYONE COME AND FIGHT ME!" Ranma cried.
"You want to fight?" Shinji asked, "Why?"
"Shinji, I was born a martial artist. I was born to fight. If I can't fight. I have nothing. It's all I grew up knowing. The art was, and is, my life," Ranma said with hint of saddness, "I'm gonna go train some more,"
Ranma had erected a wooden post on some grass a few blocks away in a park. He jumped down there and began punching it.
"He sure loves punching that wooden post, doesn't he?" Asuka asked. She was standing in the doorway to their apartment.
"Yeah, I feel kinda sorry for him," Shinji replied.
"HEY RANMA! THERES A DOJO ABOUT TWENTY MILES DOWN THAT WAY!" Asuka shouted and pointed west. It was somewhat a joke. She didn't actually expect him to get out and walk that far.
"REALLY!" Ranma shouted back up.
"Yeah, there's not many of them left anymore but that one is still there!" Asuka replied.
"THANKS A LOT ASUKA!" Ranma shouted. He then proceeded to jump clear to the top of the building and head in the direction Asuka pointed.
"How do you know there's a dojo that way?" Shinji asked.
"Idiot, I saw it on the way here from Germany. It was called, uh. Hibiki dojo or something like that." Asuka said.
"Oh yeah! Now I remember!" Shinji said, "It was the big place with the giant spatula on the front!"
"Idiot," Asuka thought as she walked toward him.
*****************
"I guess this is the place," Ranma thought. He had been running for about an hour and had asked for directions a few times.
HIBIKI DOJO! RYOGA'S ALIVE! Ranma walked into the dojo. "Damnit, Ryoga probably married Akane!" Ranma thought.
He walked in, inconveinantly missing the large spatula on the top of the front gate and saw a woman. She was in probably her early 30s. Ranma noticed something different about this girl. Like the fact the she wore a huge spatula on here back and was teaching students. She appeared to be teaching a beginners class.
"In martial arts Okonomiyaki an opponent is defeated by. " But she was cut short.
"The speed of the cook. Been a while huh, Uchan?" Ranma finished for her.
All the faces had turned to see, the new comer.
"Uchan. I haven't been called that in 15 years," Ukyo began. "The only person who's ever called me that has been dead for that long. Ranma?" She finished standing up and turning around.
"W, who are you?" She asked.
"Yeah, it's me Uchan. I've just been through a few changes," Ranma said.
"You, you look old enough to be Ranma's son," Ukyo said.
"Yeah, actually Uchan, Ranma did die in the second Impact. I'm from a world where the was no second Impact," Ranma told her.
"Wait a minute," Ukyo said before running into the house.
"Hey! who're you kid?" one particularly large man said, "I haven't seen Ukyo like that since I first came here a year ago!"
"Well, if you made her mad, I feel reeeeaaaall sorry for you!" He said, "Her husband and herself are both expert martial artists! If I made them mad, I'd be running for my life!"
"If her husband is who I think he is, then you don't have to worry about me. I beat him before and I can do it again!" Ranma exclaimed.
"YOU DEFEATED RYOGA! A SCRAWNY KID LIKE YOU!" The man exclaimed. He soon found his face in the wall.
Hmph, serves you right.
Ukyo came back with a pitcher of cold water, a boy who looked about Ranma's age, mabye younger, and finally a man wearing a yellow polka dotted bandanna.
"Hey P-chan long time no see!" Ranma exclaimed right off the bat.
Ryoga amazingly kept a straight face. I can already tell Ukyo, this is Ranma without a doubt. "I thought you died a long time ago Ranma," he said.
"Wow, you grew up!" Ranma said.
"And you got younger, now tell me!" Ryoga said slightly pissed.
"Well, I did die, but I myself am from another world where the second impact never happened," Ranma told him.
"Well, that explains it then Ukyo," Ryoga said.
The students were confused, as was the boy.
"Well Ranma, I assume you came here to fight someone?" Ryoga said.
"Wow, you got smarter too!" Ranma said, "Of course, but I hate to admit it but I don't think I'm at your level anymore. I mean a 30 year old vs. a 14 year old just doesn't fit. Plus, I'm actually 18 so I'm not used to this body yet.
"Yep this is my Ran-chan allright," Ukyo said as she put the glass down.
"Well, Letetsu, are you up to fighting my old rival? By the way Ranma this is me and Ukyo's son Letetsu," Ryoga said without taking his eyes off Ranma.
"Dad, this is the guy who gave you all that trouble when you were in high school?" Letetsu asked.
"Yes only he was my age then. Ranma has a real problem with switching bodies and ages," Ryoga smirked.
"Look who's talkin' pork chop!" Ranma said.
Ryoga shrugged it off.
"Well, it looks like were gonna have to end the lessons a little early class," Ukyo said, "But this fight ought to be pretty good. No offence Ranma but I'm routing for my son,"
"I figured," he replied, "Can't have you bein' a bad mom right?"
The two assembled in the middle of the room facing each other. The dojo was much like the Tendo Dojo only the wood was darker. The boy had Ryoga's fangs but instead of weilding an umbrella, he held a battle spatula.
"So your Ryoga's kid? Well, this ought to be good. Back when your pop was in high school He gave me more trouble than you could believe!" Ranma said.
"I believe it. He's my dad after all!" Letetsu said.
They both bowed to each other. "Ryoga any new rules that I need to know?" Ranma asked.
"Heh heh, no you fight your way Ranma. The anything goes style has returned!" Ryoga said.
"BEGIN!" Ukyo shouted.
And the fight was on.
(Oh come on, you didn't think I was gonna have Ranma fight Ryoga did you? Ryoga woulda' swamped him! Sorry but I can't have Ranma lose like that. I just don't have it in me to let Ranma lose because he is too young. Ryoga is OOC but that's because he's 15 years older. Ranma may be OOC on accident, sorry. Asuka and Shinji well, you tell me about them. I haven't seen Evangelion in a while. Oh yeah, I didn't make 10,000 words because I have to go home tomorrow and have no way of bringing this story back home! R&R! Well, until next time, later!)
Confutious say: Your life is the Cherries while mine is just the pits.
