Of all things i decided to work on this fic again, who knows maby it will have

a big fan following like my other series.

Starting Over

Chapter Two

      It was raining, he didn't like rain... but at least it wasn't as bad as it

had once been. When he had been cursed in china a bit of water switched his

gender, luckily he didn't have that problem anymore. But he still didn't like

rain, it reminded him of all thr trouble he had once had as Ranma Soatome.

      As the dark haired teen waited for class ro being he thought of Toyas

sister, there had been something strange about the girl. When he had chosen

the girls nickname he had seen an image in his mind, of strange cards and

two shadowed figures seeming to guard them.

      'Strange but like all the other nickname I give its like someones giving

me theses name, i only wish i knew what it all meant' Ranma thought with a

sigh, when he started giving nicknames so had the short visions.... he still

didn't understand the double vision of Yuki he had gotten.

      He looked out the classroom window once again watching it pore, the

sky wa dark... almost as if warning him that something was about to happen.

      'Trouble is coming' Ranma thought with a frown, then the bell rang

and class began.

***

      Kari looked nervously around her new classroom, the other children

were friendly and didn't reconize her as one of the children that had saved

teh world from Malomyotismon.

      'I don't think I could survive if someone asked me about gatamon, I

would probably break out crying' she thought sadly, it was then that the girl

next to her decided to tell her about the latest strange happening around this

district.

      It was halfway through morning classes when she began to feel

queezy, she was also very pale.

      "Kari, are you okay?" a girl named Hotaru asked, her large purple eyes

were filled with concern.

      "I just need to go to the bathroom," she lied, she was feeling teerrible

not to mention how dizzy she was.

      "You may go to the bathroom," the teacher said, Kari nodded greatfully

and got up. But before she could go anywhere the world seemed to spin, she

fell into darkness... she fainted.

***

      "Mr Kamiya, theres a message for you," Ranmas teacher said passing

him a pink note, he knew that this was a note from the main office from teh

neat writing on it.

      "Teacher may i be excuse, my cousin has fallen sick and i have to get

her home?' he asked, the teacher nodded and he sighed in relief. He got up

and packed his books, as he walked to the door he stopped briefly by Toya.

      "Sorry but were going to have to cancel introducing oyour sister and

my cuz, I'll see you when i can though," Ranma said, then feeling worried

about Kari he ran out of the school nd ran to the Reedington elementary.

***

      Kari woke up witha  painful groan, the whole world felt as if it was on

fire. She blinked when she felt something cool placed on her forehead,

looking to teh side of her bed she found herself looking into the worried face

of Ranma.

      "Ranma?" she questioned weakly, seeing her awake he gave her a

small smile.

      "You got a high fevor little light, doctors been here already and told

me that you got struck by a virus... but it will be gone in a day or two," he

told her witha  wry smile, she smiled weakly at him.

      "You should just send me back to Odaiba, I'm nothing but trouble to

you," she said, why should he let her stay when he was making his life

difficult.

      "Not true cuz, I like you staying here. I love being your cousin and the

place doesn't seem as empty, now i want you to rest and sleep for a few

hours.... when you wake up I'll make you some soup," he said his eyes

serious, Kari smiled glad that he wanted her here.

      "Thanks shadow," she whispered, he smiled.

      "Sleep Hikari," he said gently and kissed her forehead, then he got up

and left... soon she fell asleep.

***

      She found herself in a dream or more acurtly a memory, in it she was

very small and Ranma was there, he was just a kid but his blue eyes already

showed the person he would become.

      Dream Kari fell down scraping her knee and began to cry, chibiranma

ran over to her and carried her to the bathroom. There he gently cleaned

and bandaged her knees, once done he smiled at her.

      "There all done Little light, everything will be all right," he said and

Kari giggled, she loved her blue eyed cousin... he was like the perfect older

brother... unlike the overprotective Tai.

      "Why do you call me Little light?" Kari asked curious, Ranma looked

slightly embarrised.

      "Cause your full name means light, and yur little... so little light," he

told her, Kari giggled and hugged the embarrised boy.

      "I like it, you can call me that anytime," she giggled and he did when

they were in private, it was a secret name betwen them.

      Kari also gave him the nickname of shadow, even as a small kid

Ranma seemed to be able to hide invisibly in shadows... and when ever she

was in trouble he was like a shadow to protect her.

***

      A little while later Ranma checked in on his cousin, he smiled when he

saw her smiling in her sleep.

      "Sleep well little light, get well soon," he said gently, he then left the

room.
