Six long days later, Ryouga stood in front of Furikan High School, a large white building with a large clock in the middle tower, wobbling on a stick from pure exhaustion of traveling many miles. "I finally… made…it," sputtered Ryouga before collapsing onto the ground.
"We're going to be late!" cried a female voice approaching rapidly. "It's all your fault! Why do you always have to train so early in the morning?"
"I thought you'd understand tom-boy!" replied a voice also approaching at the same rate. "Got to keep my skills fresh by practicing everyday, but I guess someone as un-cute as you wouldn't under-"
A loud bam and splash were heard as the girl whapped the boy into a large puddle. "Akane you dummy!" cried a voice, which was now female. "Why'd you have to knock me into that puddle? Now I have to find some hot water! I can't go to school as a girl!"
"Stay a girl forever for all I care!" yelled Akane running up to the school but tripping over something along the way.
"Oof!" she yelled as she fell against what she had tripped over. When Akane opened her eyes, she realized she was lying on top of a now-conscious Ryouga, his eyes open with surprise.
"What the-?" gasped a now-male voice behind them.
"R-Ranma!" stammered Akane as she pulled her self away from a red-faced Ryouga. "I-it's not what it looks like! I just tripped over Ryouga who was just lying here and I just fell on him! Right Ryouga?"
"Akane's telling the truth, Ranma," smirked Ryouga hoisting himself to his feet. "No need to get jealous."
"Hah!" scoffed Ranma, "Who could get jealous over a un-cute muscle-bound chi-"
A direct blow in the face and stomach cut off Ranma's insults from two different people, hurling him into the air.
"Shrivel up and die!" screamed Akane who had hit him hard in the head with her school bag.
"I'll never let you talk about Akane like that, you fiend!" roared Ryouga who had punched Ranma square in the stomach. Ryouga turned to Akane and sighed. "I just don't now how you put up with garbage like that, Akane."
"Me neither," muttered Akane, her short purple hair billowing in the breeze. "That stupid Ranma woke me up early this morning because of his training, and I assumed it was a school day so I ran off to school. The dimwit probably thought it was a school day too because he followed me here on a Saturday."
Good, thought Ryouga, It seems that they are already starting to get on each other's nerves. This is my chance to tell Akane that I love her even before I can control Ranma so she'll have someone to run to for comfort. Ryouga then mustered up all the courage he had and cried "Akane?"
"Yes?" Asked Akane smiling widely, her brown eyes sparkling with curiosity.
Ryouga's heart rate quickened as he turned around, crouching on his knees. He was blushing madly and twiddling his thumbs as he sputtered "Wuh-Will you guh-go out with me?" Ryouga turned around, overjoyed that he finally spoken the words he could never say, but Akane wasn't there. N-No way! Screamed the voice in Ryouga's head. It can't be! Poor Ryouga had once again been thrown into his own personal pit of despair.
"What's that guy over there doing?" questioned Nabiki, Akane's older sister who had been passing by. Seeing Akane, she had called her over to ask her why she was at school on a Saturday. "Is that Ryouga?"
Ryouga was bashing his head into the stonewall lining the road, which was starting to crack. "Yeah, that's him," announced Akane, "But I'm not exactly sure what he's doing…" Nabiki looked at Akane in confusion but shrugged her shoulders and waved goodbye to Akane, clearly in a hurry to leave.
Ryouga's head then broke through the stonewall, and he lay motionless in the rubble.
"Ryouga?" called Akane in concern, running over to the newly formed rock pile. "Are you alright?"
Ryouga, clearly fine, hoisted himself from the rubble and snickered "Akane, how would you like it if you and Ranma broke your engagement?"
Akane stared at him wide-eyed. "What do you mean?" stated Akane "All of the pressure of those rocks on your head must've damaged your brain a little. You can come home with me and stay for the night. You can talk to Ranma about that, OK?"
Oh, man… thought Ryouga; she thinks I'm mental! I really shouldn't accept her kind offer without repaying her somehow, though; it would be a perfect opportunity to get Ranma. Oh, what should I do?
"Uhh, Ryouga?" questioned Akane walking over to a disgruntled Ryouga who was walking in circles muttering to himself. Poor Ryouga, thought Akane he must've been wandering around for days with that horrible sense of direction he has! He must be Exhausted! I have to bring him back home for his own good.
With that, Akane walked over to a pondering Ryouga and held out her hand. Ryouga looked up to a smiling Akane and blushed. "C'mon," soothed Akane, "You can come home with me."
Ryouga, overcome with joy, reached for Akane's extended hand. Ryouga picked up his backpack and slung it over his shoulders. "O-ok," stammered Ryouga, "Let's go." Rouge walked side-by-side Akane, crying silent tears of joy. Life is good, thought Ryouga hardly containing his urge to skip in joy.
Crouched above the happy couple, on the ledge of the stone wall sat a boy wearing Chinese-style clothing with a black braid in the back of his head. He was Ranma Saotome, heir to the Anything-Goes School of Martial arts, Akane's fiancée, and curse with turning into a girl when splashed with cold water. Seeing Ryouga and Akane walking together with Ryouga having a look of sure bliss on his face infuriated him. "I'll show you Ryouga!" snickered Ranma, running to the Tendo Dojo to arrive there before Akane.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"I'm ho-me!" called Akane when she and Ryouga entered her home, the Tendo Dojo. "And guess who I brought with me?"
"Who?" asked Kasumi, Akane's eldest sister, entering the lobby drying her hands on her apron. "Oh!" exclaimed Kasumi when she spotted Ryouga, "Ryouga! Welcome!"
"Uh, h-hi," stammered a bashful Ryouga.
Kasumi smiled. "Stay as long as you need to, Ryouga! Any friend of Akane and Ranma's is always welcome!"
"Th-Thanks," thanked Ryouga, bowing. Kasumi nodded in reply and returned to kitchen.
"Ok, Ryouga," chirped Akane, "do you want to go see Ranma now?"
"Uhh..." muttered Ryouga laughing in his usual embarrassed way. "I suppose…"
"Ok, then!" exclaimed Akane, grabbing Ryouga's hand and leading him to Ranma's room. It's a good thing that she's leading me to his room, thought a pathetic Ryouga, I would've got lost… even though I know this house so well now.
"Ok, we're here!" chirped Akane when they reached the paper screen door leading into Ranma's room. "Have fun!" and with that, Akane ran off so fast she could've left a whirlwind behind her (AN: Haha, InuYasha mentioning ^_^. You know… like when Kouga runs of he leaves that huge whirlwind of dust behind him? Get it? Huh? Huh? FEH! Never mind…).
Why is she in such a hurry? Pondered a curious Ryouga but then remembered his little incident before where Akane thought he had brain damage. Ohh… She still thinks I'm crazy! Ryouga then shook off the thought and slammed open the screen door.
"Ranma!" Ryouga yelled, stomping into the room. Ryouga blinked. He isn't here, he though as he peered around the small room. Ryouga stepped out of the room and closed the door, obviously puzzled, pondering where Ranma could be hiding. Either in the dojo or the living room or the dojo, Ryouga concluded heading downstairs, wandering aimlessly.
About 10 minutes later, after both of Akane's sisters for help, Ryouga stumbled into the living room, where sure enough sat Ranma, watching TV while stuffing his face with mochi and carbonated water.
"Ranma…" growled Ryouga storming into the living area. Ranma turned around, mochi still in mouth and sputtered, "'Ey 'Ouga! What brungs you 'ere?" splattering mochi all over Ryouga's face.
Ryouga smirked, obviously disgusted, whipped the splattered mochi off his face and yelled, "I have come to end your engagement with Akane!" Ryouga then removed the extremely heavy umbrella from his backpack and lunged at Ranma.
"Whoa!" coughed Ranma, barley dodging Ryouga's attack, chocking on the mochi that he had not yet swallowed. Ranma landed hard on his hands and knees coughing. "Hold on Ryouga!" coughed Ranma, "Y-you jerk!" Ranma coughed, obviously struggling. "You made me choke on my damn mochi!"
"Feh," smirked Ryouga, unconcerned at Ranma's struggling. Ranma looked up at Ryouga, still struggling with the chunk of mochi lodged in his throat. "I'll help you get it out!" With that, Ryouga removed his belt from around his waist. With a quick flick of his wrist, the belt extended into a razor-sharp rod which Ryouga used to whack Ranma in the back with.
"What-cough-in the hell-cough-was that for?" choked Ranma, shaken by the metal-like rod. Jeez, what's his deal? Thought Ranma, getting chills down his spine from the look Ryouga had in his eyes. Why is he after me? I mean, I know he hates me but this is a little extreme!
"Didn't work, eh?" laughed Ryouga lifting up his belt again. "Then this time I'll have to hit you harder!" Ryouga swung the belt with much more force than before as Ranma let out a terrified yell.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The first thing Akane saw when she ran into the room after hearing Ranma's terrified yell was him lying on the floor with a crude drawing with a black marker on his face. "R-ranma?" she cried running over to his side. "Who did this to you?" Akane looked around the room some more and noticed a glob of mochi on the wall and a shivering P-Chan with a black marker in his mouth on top of Ryouga's clothes with an empty bottle of mineral water lying next to him.
"What the-" started Akane, cut off by the loud squeal of the little black pig as he ran out of the open door, through the garden and broke through the stone wall, marker still in his mouth.
Ranma then coughed and sputtered, managing to say "That damn Ryouga… what'd he do to me?"
"Ryouga?" shrieked Akane storming over to a surprised Ranma and grabbing him by the collar of his shirt. "What do you mean Ryouga?"
"You dummy!" cried Ranma, releasing himself from Akane's vice grip and pointing to his face. "Who else could've done this to me?"
"You jerk!" retorted a furious Akane giving Ranma a look that made him step back a little. "The only one in here was P-Chan, and Ryouga's clothes were on the floor! You just set P-Chan up didn't you? Putting that marker in his mouth! You should be ashamed! Why are you so jealous of a pig anyway?"
"Hah!" scoffed Ranma picking Ryouga's clothes off the floor. "I should at least find the jerk and return his clothes."
"I can't believe you!" shrieked Akane storming back into the hallway, curious about the sudden disappearance of Ryouga and how he must be running around lost in the nude because Ranma had his clothes and why there was such a foul odor in the living room that hinted of the smell of ink.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Ryouga had ran and ran in his pig form until out of some faint trace of luck he had ended up in front of his house. Locating the small dog door that his dog Shirokuro and her puppies used, Ryouga darted inside. Inside laid Shirokuro, with her puppies right by her side, rudely awakened by the strange intrusion of a small black pig. Shiroku blinked and stood up, approaching Ryouga. Ryouga squealed in terror and tried to escape, but Shirokuro was to fast, picking Ryouga up by his bandana and taking him into the bathroom where she placed him under one of the faucets. Shirokuro then grabbed hold of the handle with her teeth and turned it. Hot water poured over Ryouga, causing him to transform back into his human form.
Ryouga was stunned. "How did you learn to do that girl?" he questioned, patting her on the head. Shirokuro turned her line of vision to her puppies, which were waiting under the faucet so their mother could give them a bath. "Oh…" stammered Ryouga noticing all of the water on the floor, "I guess I was pretty dirty…" Shirokuro gave a friendly bark to her master and turned toward her pups her were eagerly awaiting their bath.
Ryouga, realizing that he wasn't wearing any clothes managed to stumble upon his room. In his closet he found that his mom had bought him a new outfit-Chinese style clothing, which he loved. The receipt was dated for the week before and on it was a note from his mother, which said he would be wearing the outfit for the family portrait last Wednesday. Oh Well, thought Ryouga. With this family's sense of direction, probably neither my mom nor dad was here on Wednesday. Ryouga put on the outfit, which was miraculously the right size on.
"It's time," cackled Ryouga pulling the red marker out of his backpack. Ryouga uncapped the marker and was overwhelmed by the extremely foul smell of the ink. Man… thought Ryouga this stuff reeks! I don't know I was able to withstand this smell as a pig when I was writing on Ranma's face! But it's worth it! I'll soon be able to have Akane all to myself! Oh Akane…
Ryouga was awakened from his daydream by the excruciating pain the throbbed from both of his arms. "Ouch!" screeched Ryouga, snapping back into reality "What the hell…?" Ryouga looked down at his arms and saw that he had written Akane's name on both of his arms in his subconscious. Well, I guess that's ok… concluded Ryouga I was just about to do that anyway… Ryouga then felt a sudden wave of sleepiness as his head fell hard on the floor.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Ranma was wondering around the street of Nerima, looking for Ryouga's house, in no hurry to get there after what the jerk had done to him. He had seemed to developed a horrible headache, but it was in the very front of his face, like some one had etched it on. Ranma was also pondering the reason why people were staring at his face, and Ranma was getting pretty sick of it. Ranma stopped the next person who looked at him funny and cried "Why are you looking at me like that?"
The person Ranma pulled aside was obviously startled at the young man's rude behavior, but embarrassed because it wasn't everyday that an old lady gets pulled aside by a handsome young man. "Why are you staring at me like that?" shouted Ranma grasping the old lady's hand tightly. "You must tell me why! Why do you look at me with such disgust in your eyes?"
The old lady flushed greatly and sputtered "Well, dear, it's not everyday that you see someone walking around in public with a horrible drawing on their face like that!"
"W-what?" cried Ranma running over to a nearby puddle and examining his face, dropping the old lady on the ground. Looking at his reflection in the puddle Ranma saw the crudely drawn markings on his face and roared "Damnit Ryouga! What'd you do to me?" as Ranma fell unconscious to the ground, the elderly women who had a crush on him screaming in terror.
