That Would Be Stupid
By Kuno – Baby
AN: Sorry about no Make Me Feel. Hope this is good.
Ranma is treading through the forest, deep in China, when a sudden feeling of dread fills him. He stops for a moment and looks around, seeing in front of him only his father, as they make their way to Jusenkyo Training Grounds.
"Ranma, why did you stop?" a sweet and feminine voice calls to him from behind.
Ranma quickly spins around and faces Nodoka Saotome, a surprised look on his face.
"Didn't we leave you behind for ten years?" Ranma shakes his head and blinks, not believing his eyes.
"What? That would be stupid!" Nodoka laughs.
Ranma is walking behind his father, when he sees a sign, in Chinese and Japanese. "Jusenkyo Training Grounds."
He shivers as he approaches, then looks back at his mother, who has her sword out and ready, and decides he might as well continue. As he enters the small valley the grounds are located in, he notices that the grounds are a large expanse of flat plain, with many strangely dressed fighters sparring and lifting weights, and doing other similar training.
"Isn't this supposed to be a series of transforming cursed springs?" Ranma inquires to a man in a Chinese army uniform.
"That be stupid! This training ground made by amazons!"
Ranma is watching a Chinese girl fight a questionable gendered opponent as he stuffs his face from a table full of fruit and meat.
The girl easily defeats her opponent with twin maces. Then, she looks angrily at the table of food, and jumps in front of Ranma.
"Agh!" Ranma begins, "Are you going to try and kill me for eating some of this food now?"
"That be stupid! Shampoo just want some of buffet!" Shampoo then took a leg of turkey.
"Err, okay, but can we spar anyway?"
Ranma is watching, nervously, as Shampoo stands up after he defeated her. She then walks up to Ranma with a smile on her face.
"Are you going to give me a kiss of marriage? Or worse, a kiss of death?" Ranma is very nervous now.
"That be stupid!" Shampoo laughs, then continues. "How about handshake for good match?"
Ranma and his family are making their way to the Tendo Dojo, when suddenly they run into a wanderer with a yellow and black bandana and a large backpack much like Ranma's own.
"Ryoga! Are you going to attack and try to kill me over a fued we had in junior high school?" Ranma is actually pretty bored by now.
"That would be stupid! I wanted to see you, though. See, I was so impressed by your style I want you to teach me!"
Ranma is knocking on the door to a large house with a Dojo attached. Soun Tendo answers the door.
"Are you going to hug me, then faint, then turn out to be a drooling moron who cries a lot?"
Soun Tendo remains with a serious expression. "I will not even justify that with an answer.
"Are you going to engage me to one of your daughters at random, then she turns out to be a sadistic lunatic?"
"What? No! That would be stu
SPLASH!
Ranma wakes up as a girl, Akane with a pail standing over him. He is soaking wet.
"Argh! It was just a dream! Why couldn't that be real?"
"Don't you know by now, Ranma?" Akane grin evilly. "That would be stupid!"
