A/N: 9th chappie here... :) I'm so lazy... and my pc wouldn't let me connect to
fanfic.net for some time...
To Queen Quantepec III: I'm glad you find my work really good. Hopefully, this next chapter would reach the same level of appreciation. :)

Kagome looked down and screamed when she caught sight of the thing clutching her front.
In a flash, she found the old man flat faced on the ground with not one, but two fists holding him down. One from Inuyasha, who looked about to burst from the steam coming out of his ears, and the other, from the boy who could turn to a girl, Ranma, whose right brow was twitching in an effort to control his temper.
Akane rushed over to her new found friend as Sango and Miroku broke through the bushes from the other side of the trail, weapons drawn, and Miroku sporting a tell-tale lump on his head.
"What's going on?" Sango asked, lowering her Hiraikotsu as she tried to interpret the scene before her.
Before anyone could react, Inuyasha looked at his companion and gaped stupidly. Shaking his head, very much like a dog, he looked again and leaned a little closer to Ranma. "Ano... ore wa osake no onna desu ka?" he asked sniffing the air near Ranma's face.
Kagome was jerked to action and tried to get between the two guys, forgetting Happosai for a moment. "Um... Inuyasha?" she asked tentatively, resting her hand lightly on his kimono-covered arm. "I'll explain later, but you're right. He's also osake no onna. His name is Saotome Ranma and he could turn into a woman. Isn't it incredible?"
Ranma stood still, his temper flaring a little, causing Kagome to go stiff as she felt his intensified gaze. "Oi, you're making me sound like a circus performer." He rattled off, embarrassment making his face the color of cherries.
Inuyasha still looked puzzled that Kagome couldn't help but laugh despite Ranma's obvious annoyance. "Well, it's a long story. Come on, let's head back to camp and hear them out?" She giggled when he cast her a strange look. She took her hand from his arm and grabbed his hand instead, then took a step forward and felt an unusual softness where her foot landed. She looked down and let out a scream as she caught sight of the hentai who had the guts to look up her skirt lying there on the ground, squashed between two different feet.
They finally reached camp, Inuyasha and Ranma restraining the old man, Miroku trying to get Sango to talk to him, Shippou and Kirara trailing after the girls, and Akane helping a trembling Kagome.
Genma had reverted back to his human form and was seating close to the fire eating a bowl of stew they had left behind. He looked up and found the gaping faces of Kagome, Sango, Shippou, Miroku and Inuyasha staring at him.
Akane and Ranma, with identical sheepishness on their faces, had decided to stay aside. They had secured Happosai to another tree, doubling the number of vines they had used to restrain him before to make sure he'll never be able to get lose again.
The gang started searching high and low, calling out for the unusual panda. They exhausted every possible place close to camp when Shippou accidentally tumbled over a bucket of cold water nearby splashing the strange man who infiltrated their camp.
