************ Angelic Ranma *************
Soun and Genma stared at a board that laid between them, pieces of wood placed all over it. Then, with a groan of despair, Genma turned a piece over.
Genma : I give,... Soun, old friend, have you been practicing lately?
Soun : Why yes, I've been playing with some friends from the council. There's a child there, who plays Go like I've never seen before. I'll have to introduce you to Hikaru sometime.
Genma : That you will.
Genma grinned as he patted Soun on the back, then turned toward the kitchen as Kasumi walked out.
Kasumi : breakfast is ready. I hope you like it Mr. Saotome.
Genma : Kasumi, anything you make is wonderful
Kasumi (barely holding her smile) : Mr. Saotome, you flatterer. If you don't hurry, it'll get cold. Could one of you get Ranma for breakfast?
Soun looked at Genma before clearing his throat slightly.
Soun : Ranma isn't here,... he hasn't been home the past four nights.
Kasumi : Oh my,... I hope he's eating right. Oh,... I guess that means I made too much food.
Genma (drooling) : Don't worry Kasumi, I'll eat it all!
Genma and Soun cover their eyes as the room fill with a bright silver light, leaving Ranma and Setsuna in it's wake.
Ranma : Wow,... I missed traveling like that.
Setsuna : Well, you don't have to use it all the time you know. Don't need you slipping from your prime.
Ranma (under breath) : Look who's talking
Setsuna : What was that,... Ranma?
Ranma : N-Nothing at all!
Kasumi : Oh my,... Ranma your just in time for breakfast. Will your,... friend,.. be joining us?
Ranma glances over at Kasumi and smiles at her, nodding his head slightly. Setsuna couldn't help but get jealous at the emotion in the small gesture.
Ranma : If you've got room, Kasumi. I hope that it didn't ruin your setting too much.
Kasumi (blushing) : Oh no,.. it's no problem at all Ranma-kun.
Kasumi turned and left the room, leaving a fish faced Setsuna staring at her back.
Setsuna : K-Kasumi?
Ranma (nodding) : Our daughter. We just have to awaken her memories before we say anything of the sort.
Ranma turned and looked at Setsuna as she brought her hand up, wiping away tears.
Setsuna : She's so beautiful,... It's hard to believe she's our daughter.
Ranma : Huh? Because she's beautiful?
Setsuna : No, baka,... because she is so proper and timid. Between me and you, she should have at least enough power to destroy a town.
Ranma : True,.. but you have to remember that Kami locked away her powers. Also, that she was living with the Tendo's and was brought up as a house wife.
Setsuna : I still can't believe it,...
Ranma smiled at Setsuna before gripping her in a tight hug.
Ranma : That's right Setsuna,.. it's our daughter. We can be a family once again.
Soun : Ranma! How dare you cheat on your fiancée!
Genma : That's right! How dare you dishonor your fiancée like that!
Ranma turned toward Genma and Soun, smiling a half-evil smile as he cracked his knuckles.
Ranma : You have no idea who your messing with. Just shut up.
Genma stood up and took a fighting stance as he smirked at Ranma.
Genma : We know you can't beat me when I unseal the forbidden techniques Ranma!
Ranma : Those weak pathetic things? I know them, and variations of them. You have nothing that I don't know already.
Genma raised his hand and smiled at Ranma.
Genma : Goshin Dai Ryü Sei Fu (1)
With that, Genma took off his bandana and waved it in front of his body, disappearing into the shadows.
Ranma : Pitiful Genma,... absolutely pitiful.
Ranma blurred and slammed a fist into the invisible Genma's chest, throwing him back into Soun and knocking them both unconscious.
Setsuna : You were beaten around, by those?
Ranma : I let them. It was a part of my cover as an immortal.
Walking down the stairs, Nabiki heard the end of Ranma's statement, a grin on her face when she reached the bottom.
Nabiki : Immortal? Saotome, are you telling me you found the key to immortality?
Ranma (chuckling to himself) : Did I fail to tell you this Nabiki?
Hearing his casual tone, Nabiki glared daggers at Ranma.
Ranma : Yes, I did find the key to immortality. You want it?
Nabiki drooled slightly at the prospect of living forever, before she sobered up and narrowed her eyes again.
Nabiki : What's in it for you? What's the catch?
Ranma : The catch? The catch is that you need to kill Chaos, kill yourself, kill another god. Then on top of that, you need to watch all you care die for you in front of your very eyes. Only then can you reach the level of a god.
Nabiki : Quit joking around Ranma!
Ranma (sadly) : Who's joking?
Nabiki : The only person you killed was Saffron. You never killed yourself, Chaos, and you never reached the level of a god. Otherwise you would beat Ryoga senseless and then take his umbrella.
Ranma chuckled slightly before shaking his head.
Ranma : Poor naive Nabiki. How is it that you are so smart, and yet so stupid?
Taken aback at Ranma's chiding, Nabiki tried to grasp onto something she knew was real. Namely, she threw a nearby glass of water in Ranma's face, grinning to herself as she awaited the change. Strangely enough, a soaking wet male Ranma was staring at her, amusement flickering across his face slightly.
Ranma : Were you hoping for something, Nabiki-chan?
Nabiki : W-What happened to your curse?
Setsuna : Curse?
Ranma (turning to Setsuna) : Yeah. My old man took me to Jusenkyo, the old magic training ground for the royal knights of Earth. It's spells were everything from invincibility, to shape shifting. Genma fell into the spring of drowned Panda.
Ranma demonstrated by creating a globe of freezing cold water above Genma's unconscious head, then letting it fall. Changing the fat man, into a fat four hundred pound panda, and waking him up slightly. Setsuna stared at it for a second before giggling to herself.
Ranma : And they thought they knocked me into the spring of drowned Girl. However, I had cocooned myself in magic, and warded it away, barely.
Setsuna : So,... you turned into a girl when someone splashed you with cold water, just for show?
Ranma : No,...
Setsuna : So,,.. what else did you do it for?
Ranma : I made myself damn hot in that form. Made perfect for those lonely nights away from you.
Setsuna and Nabiki blushed a bright red before Ranma fell to the ground, laughing his ass off.
Ranma : I'm just kidding. Anyways, yes, I changed myself into a girl whenever someone splashed me with cold water. Sometimes, I did it subconsciously when I slept and someone splashed me.
Setsuna (gasping) : Who would do something so perverted?
Ranma : You didn't hear the rest of it. She would take pictures of me, and sell it to the boys at school. Then she would demand that I give her compensation for ruining the Tendo compound. However, if you think about it, that is kinda like prostitution, isn't it?
Setsuna : Yes, not to mention that you were technically underage at the time. Both the person taking the pictures and the people buying them should be put away in jail for a very long time.
Nabiki : C-Come on, it was all in good fun!
Setsuna (gasping) : It was you?
Kasumi walks out of the kitchen with a cheerful smile on her face, slightly catching the end of the discussion
Kasumi : Oh my, Nabiki-chan, it's not polite to take advantage of someone like that. If you liked someone that much, you should just tell them.
Nabiki stared at her older sister, half in shock, and the other half desperately wanting to wake up from this nightmare.
Nabiki : I'm going to school. I'll see you all later.
Kasumi : Oh my Nabiki-chan, it's not good to skip breakfast.
Nabiki didn't know what felt worse, Ranma being civil around her, or being scolded by her older sister.
Nabiki : I'll get something on the way to school Kasumi. See you later.
Watching Nabiki leave, Ranma glances at the two unconscious men and snorts with disgust.
Ranma : We should probably do this why they are unconscious.
Ranma turned toward Kasumi and smiled gently, making her blush and look down.
Ranma : Kasumi,.... It's time for you to awaken.
Kasumi : Awaken? Oh my, did I fall asleep?
Ranma (chuckling) : Powers of magic, Words of destruction, Bonds of forgetfulness, unravel this power and restore it's contents. Divine powers of heaven and hell fire from below. Bring back what's mine, and mine alone.
Ranma lifted his hand in the air as a white glow filled the air. When it died down, Kasumi blinked as she saw Ranma in a suit of white armor, a sword strapped to his back, and a red falcon on the right breast.
Kasumi : R-Ranma-kun?
Ranma then pointed the sword at Kasumi and nodded slightly.
Ranma : Soul burn!
The white light from before, burst from the sword and pierced through Kasumi's heart, igniting a white aura of her own. Ranma smiled slightly when divine tattoo's formed on her forhead. Then the light dimmed to nothing, and Kasumi was on the ground, breathing hard.
Ranma : Kasumi?
'Kasumi' : Otousan?
She then looked around and noticed Setsuna staring at her, tears running down from her eyes.
'Kasumi' : Okaasan?
With a shrill cry of happiness, Setsuna dropped to her knees and hugged the girl tightly against her chest.
Setsuna : Oh Belldandy, I've missed you so much!
Belldandy : It's okay Okaasan, I'm here now.
Ranma : Bell,... how did you get roped into this mission? I thought that you were looking after your childhood boyfriend?
Belldandy ( Blushing ) : Well, I'm not quite sure myself. I know I saw a light one night, then I woke up here.
Ranma (seething) : So,... he didn't even asked. He took you from your home. That bastard! Now I'm even happier that I destroyed him.
Belldandy : Y-You destroyed father?
Ranma looked down at Belldandy before he finally realized what she meant, and nodded.
Ranma : That I did. He threatened you and your sisters, so I stopped him. Although have you noticed that being god makes people power hungry? They expect that they are the most powerful people in existence. I know around five people who could kill Kami with ease.
Setsuna : Ranma,... I think we should leave now.
Ranma looked around him and noticed Soun and Genma starting to awaken.
Ranma : Sure thing Setsu. Well, let's get back to Juuban and figure out where to look for our other daughters.
Belldandy : Urd-chan, and Skuld-chan?
Ranma : Nope.
Setsuna : Belldandy,... don't you remember? Urd was just your best friend, her original name was ReiRei. Skuld was never a part of our family, she was a person made up to fit your role in this mission.
Belldandy : Then,... who are my sisters?
Ranma : Wow,... he really screwed up your mind didn't he? Well, your sisters are........

Ranma : Hey Guyver,.... how come you haven't updated Nuku Ranma? I miss her.
SSJ Guyver : Well,..
Setsuna : Ranma,.. who's Nuku?
Ranma (sweating) : N-No one darling.
SSJ Guyver : No one? I thought she was your girlfriend?
Setsuna : Girlfriend?!?
Ranma : Jeez, thanks a lot Guyver. See if I ever act for you again!
Ranma runs off screen, as Setsuna glares at the exit he went through.
Setsuna : He has me,... why does he need a girlfriend? SSJ Guyver THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!
SSJ Guyver : ,... What'd I do?
