Ron 1/2

I tried posting a link to some online scans of the Ranma ½ manga, but ff.net automatically deleted it. So if you click on my user profile and go to my homepage it has the link down at the bottom.

Chapter 8: Mousse Explodes
[Did you know Mousse had a little sister?] Ranma whispered to Akane.
[No idea,] Akane replied.
[I gotta bad feeling about this,] Ranma said.
"Hiya, I'm Ron Stoppable," Ron introduced himself to Lo Shin's brother and offered his hand in greeting. Seeing Lo Shin and Mousse standing side by side, Ron could definitely see the family resemblance. Lo Shin stood a head shorter than her brother with hair of similar style and hue.
"Mousse," Mousse replied slowly as he clasped the offered hand in a firm grip.
"He's the man I'm going to marry," Lo Shin informed her brother happily.
"What?!" Mousse growled as his grip tightened around Ron's hand. His nostrils flared as he pulled his glasses over his eyes and closely scrutinized the boy in front of him.
"Ron's not marrying you!" Kim cut in peevishly.
"No, Ron-san will marry me," Yori stated as she possessively took hold of Ron's arm.
"He's not marrying you either," Kim retorted as she pulled Yori off Ron.
Mousse trembled with suppressed rage as he released Ron's hand and pointed at the confused blond. "You already have two women and yet you still toy with my baby sister's heart?" he demanded.
"Uh oh," Ranma said.
"I am not his woman!" Kim protested.
"Then why do you keep interfering?" Yori asked.
"It's just that... just... I'm not going to justify myself to you," Kim retorted uncomfortably.
"It's not that way at all," Ron countered defensively. "See, Yori came along after Lo Shin..."
"So you admit to stringing my sister along!" Mousse roared. "Enemy of all women!" he cried as he lashed out with a vicious kick that barely missed Ron.
"Mousse! Stop this!" Lo Shin cried. "NOW you decide to act like my brother?!"
"What you talking about, Lo Shin?" Mousse asked as he turned to face his sister. "I've always been a brother to you."
"How about all those times you were supposed to babysit me only to run after Shampoo?!" Lo Shin yelled.
"Um, um," Mousse hemmed embarrassedly. "You're only a year younger and..."
"I don't care!" Lo Shin wailed. "You'd always ignore me whenever Shampoo came around!!"
"But... but..." Mousse tried to answer.
"And then you come back to China, turn into a DUCK and then run back to Japan, all without even seeing ME!" Lo Shin continued furiously.
"You're right, Lo Shin," Mousse apologized as he enfolded his sister in a brotherly hug. "I have been a bad brother. And I intend to be a better one."
"Phew, looks like that's over," Ron said in relief once Mousse embraced Lo Shin.
"Starting with thrashing this two-timer who is toying around with you!" Mousse yelled as he released his sister and advanced menacingly on Ron.
"Um, did I miss something?" Ron asked as he backed away from the enraged Mousse. "Can't we all just get along?"
"Blow of the Swan-Fist!" Mousse bellowed as he attacked.
"Is that the same..." Akane asked, pointing at Mousse.
"Looks like," Ranma replied. "But Mousse has gotten a lot stronger since then."
"Yikes," Ron yelped as he ducked under the swing. "Rufus! Help!"
"Got it!" Rufus saluted as he bounded out of Ron's pocket.
"Aren't you going to help him?" Kim asked Ranma.
"Can't interfere in a man to man fight," Ranma replied. "It's not honorable."
Kim looked on worriedly while Ranma settled back to watch the fight. True, Ron had developed a little as a fighter, but he'd still lost nearly every fight he'd been in since Jusenkyo.
"Listen Mousse, I have no intention of marrying your sister," Ron said in hopes of pacifying his opponent. Unfortunately, Ron's words had exactly the opposite effect.
"You ARE toying with her then!" Mousse yelled as he launched another attack.
"Mousse! Stop attacking my Ron!" Lo Shin yelled as she grabbed hold of Mousse's arm while Kim huffed indignantly at Lo Shin's use of the possessive.
"Not now, Lo Shin," Mousse said to his sister in a mollifying tone and patted her on the top of the head. "Big brother must punish the bad man."
"Overcompensating twit," Lo Shin grumbled as Mousse again turned on Ron.
"Now where were we?" Mousse said menacingly as he cracked his knuckles.
"We were just about to sit down to a pleasant meal?" Ron suggested hopefully.
"Blow of the Swan-f...quack?" Mu mu-chan squawked as Rufus dumped the glass of water he had fetched on top of Mousse's head. Ron stared in shock at the damp duck and the weapon that clattered to the ground.
"You were attacking me with a toilet training potty?" Ron said incredulously. "That is so sick and wrong."
"Quack!" Mu mu-chan retorted as he spread his wings wide to reveal several throwing knives between his feathers.
"Stop it!" Lo Shin ordered as she picked Mu mu-chan and held him to her body firmly. Mu mu-chan struggled in her grasp, but eventually subsided and settled for glowering at Ron.
"Quack, quack. Quack quack quack," Mu mu-chan squawked challengingly as he pointed a wing a Ron.
"Turn human, dummy," Shampoo said as she poured a kettle of hot water on Mu mu-chan upon returning to the dining room and Mousse instantly changed to his human form, fully clothed. "Shampoo wish she knew how Mousse do that," she commented with a wistful sigh.
"As I was saying," Mousse continued. "I challenge you to a duel, if I should win..."
"You can't have Shampoo," Cologne interjected, popping up behind Mousse.
"I wasn't going to say that, old mummy!" Mousse shouted as he whirled around and glared at the matriarch.
Moving with blinding speed, Cologne slammed her staff on top of Mousse's head, knocking him to the floor. "Who's a mummy?" Cologne asked, her eyes narrowing dangerously.
"If I should win," Mousse continued yet again. "You will give up your designs on my little sister."
"Dude, I don't have any designs on your sister," Ron protested.
"And how about if Ron wins?" Kim asked.
"If the Monkey Master wins, I will hand over the Mystical Monkey Talisman," Cologne promised. The assembled group looked at the Amazon Matriarch, wondering at her sudden change of heart. "I have my reasons," she said while staring intently at Ron.
"When's the match?" Ranma asked.
"In three days," Mousse answered and looked pointedly at Ron. "Do you agree?"
"Kim?" Ron asked, looking to his lifelong friend and confidante for support.
Kim pursed her lips in thought and finally nodded her head. "Go for it, Ron," she said.
"Fine," Ron agreed with a determined nod. "Three days."
"The fight will take place at Furinkan High," Cologne stated.
"Ok, see ya then," Ranma said as he waved farewell. Akane, Kim, Yori and Ron followed suit and left the Nekohanten.
{Wait a minute, Lo Shin,} Mousse said curtly grabbing her by the wrist as Lo Shin walked past. {And where do you think you're going?}
{With Ron, of course,} Lo Shin said matter-of-factly. {He is going to be my husband after all.}
{I don't think so,} Mousse said while still holding her firmly. {Until the fight takes place, you are staying right here.}
{NO!} Lo Shin yelled, glaring defiantly at her brother. {I want to go!}
{Lo Shin, stop acting like a brat,} Mousse admonished his sister. {It is only proper and it is Law.}
{He is correct child,} Cologne said. {Until the matter is decided, your place is where your elder sibling decides.}
"Hey, Lo Shin," Ron called as he ducked back into the restaurant. "You coming?"
"I...I can't," Lo Shin said as she looked away, furious tears flowing from her eyes.
"Lo Shin will be staying with us until the fight," Cologne informed Ron. "It is tradition."
"Oh. Okay," Ron said as he turned to leave.
"I'm counting on you, Ron!" Lo Shin cried tearfully.
{I'm only looking out for you, Lo Shin,} Mousse said softly.
{I HATE YOU!} Lo Shin shrieked at Mousse as she stormed into the back of the restaurant. The sounds of wanton destruction drifted into the dining area and from the vociferous swearing that came from the back it seemed that Lo Shin had found Mousse's room.
{I suddenly remember why I left China,} Mousse declared.
Next: Intensive Training
A/N: Thanks for Reading and Reviewing! Next I'll have Ron's efforts as he learns his new techniques. And maybe I will have hunger be Ron's motivating force. I can just picture it now. "Hungry, Hungry Hippo Attack!" lol. Akane and Kim will spar. And does Ron now know the dreaded Neko-ken?
Glossary:
Mu mu-chan - Mousse's cursed form, a white duck wearing glasses.
P-chan - Ryoga's cursed form, a little black piglet.
Neko-ken - Training involves taking a fish sausage, tying it around the trainee and throwing him into a pack of hungry cats. Causes extreme phobia of cats in the trainee who must then become a cat to escape that fear. At that point, the trainee becomes uncontrollable. The manual's disclaimer says, "Just another technique that would only be used by a total idiot. Anyone who would teach this should get their head examined."
