Ultimate Chapter 1: Going Away

'I hate him! I hate that insensitive jerk!!!'Akane thought as she cried into her pillow.

Flashback:

Ranma and Akane were quarrelling as usual...

"Baka!"

"Kawaiikunee!"

"Hentaii!!!"

"Tomboy!"

The reason? Akane tried to get Ranma to eat her cooking again but Ranma just tried to get away from her.

"I'll ask you again, Ranma, why don't you ever try my cooking?!?!?!"Akane asked.

"'Cause it taste terrible, that's why!!!" shouted Ranma, hardly able to control himself.

"Ranma no baka!!!!!!"Akane screamed as she kicked him away.

45mins later...

Akane was walking towards a nearby supermarket to buy something for Kasumi. When she heard the voices of Ranma and his friends, Hiroshi and Daisuke.

"So Ranma, if you don't mind me asking. Who's your fave fiancés?" Daisuke asked.

"What do ya mean?"Ranma asked.

"Which fiancés do ya like best? Akane? Ukyo or Shampoo? Or what about that insane Kodachi?"Daisuke asked.

"Oh! Shampoo isn't my kinda girl. She gets pretty annoying at times. Ukyo... I just think of her as a friend. I mean if I have to eat okonomiyaki all day, I think I'll be sick." Ranma said. "Kodachi? Don't even go there. Her laughter would scare everyone away."

"What about Akane? She's like the most popular girl in school."Hiroshi asked.

Akane's heart beated faster at the mention of her name.

"Akane? That macho chick? You've got to be kidding! I don't see what you guys see in her anyway. Why just today, she kicked me away just 'cause I didn't want to try her cooking! I ended up having to go to Ucchan's."Ranma said.

Akane felt her blood boil, hearing Ranma saying this.

"Awwww c'mon Ranma, she's cute, attractive and aces her subjects. She's not that bad."Hiroshi said.

"Heh! That kawaiikunee cute? You guys don't know the half of it! She can't even boil water! She just tries poisoning me with her so called cooking. Not even a pig would eat it. She's not even attractive. My female figure is way better than hers. She's like a Damsel in Distress all the time. My life would be so much better of without her!"

'What the?! So he that's what he thinks about me ne? Always giving him trouble? Fine! Let him be that way!!! Ranma no baka!!!' Akane thought as tears swelled into her eyes, she quickly ran home as fast as she could.

End of flashback

Akane took her mp3 player from her table and started to listen the music. It seemed like the only thing to calm her down. She still sobbed a little though.

'Why does Ranma hate me? Am I really that unattractive? He's always called me names and insulting me. Maybe he's right, I should just get out of his life and just start a new life......without Ranma.' Akane thought 'I know, I could start a new life in L.A. There, I could get a job, nobody would think of finding me there.' The thought of moving to L.A.seemed more and more exciting to Akane. 'I'll be completely outta his life. I can't tell daddy 'cause he surely won't approve. I'll keep it a secret. I could use the money I saved up and won from that singing competition not so long ago.'

'I'll be happy. Ranma will be happy. Everything will be just great.'Akane thought. However, she did not know how very wrong she was.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A week later on a Saturday morning,

The previous week had passed by quickly, Akane just acted her usual self.

'Well it's 5 am, I'm all set and ready to go.' Thought Akane as she finished packing all her necessary belongings.

She left a note addressed to the other Tendos and Saotomes before walking out of her door.

"Sayonara Otou-san, Onee-sans, Ranma and everyone, I'll miss you." Akane said with whisper as she stood in front of the Tendo household.

'Am I doing the right thing?' Akane asked herself 'Yes. This is it. There's no turning back now Akane.'

"Sayonara."Akane said one last time as she turned to look at the place she once called home before going to the train station. She was to take a train to Tokyo, then a flight to L.A.

Everyone in Nerima was still fast asleep at that time. Unnown to them a certain blue haired girl was gonna be leaving them for a long time.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE' GONE?!" Ranma asked as he stood with his dad and the remaining Tendos in Akane's room.

He was woken up by the cries of Mr. Tendo and ran into Akane's room to see a crying Soun with Kasumi and his dad comforting him and a now white Nabiki who was clenching a piece of paper.

"I- I walked into this room to wake up Akane when I found this."Kasumi said. Nabiki handed the paper to Ranma.

Dear Daddy, Kasumi, Nabiki, Ranma and Mr. Saotome,

By the time you read this, I would have already left. I just decided to go somewhere, away from Nerima for a break, a nice long break. I'll manage, don't worry. I'll find a job somewhere. I chose to do this at my own will so don't blame anyone. It was my choice. Oh and before I forget, I'd like to break my engagement with Ranma. Aren't you glad Ranma? Now you don't have to deal with the useless, uncute, hopeless tomboy anymore. Plus you'll be able to marry Shampoo, Ukyo or even Kodachi for all I care. Our relationship is over! I doubt we actually had one anyway. After all, it was a forced engagement in the first place. I'm really sorry daddy, I just don't think it would work out. I'm gonna be ok, I'll call home after I settle down and don't worry I can take care of myself, I'm not gonna keep playing Damsel in Distress, I can look after myself. I'll come back to Nerima one day, I definitely will. So take care everyone! C ya then!

"Akane... Akane... why? Why?! But why would she do this?!"Ranma asked 'No! No! This is not happening! This just can't be true! Akane couldn't have ran away! Why would she?' he thought.

"She-she'll come back right?"Ranma asked again.

"Well... she did say so in the note she left us but... we can't be sure."Nabiki said.

"Where could she have gone?"Ranma asked.

"My baby! Oh my poor baby!" Soun cried.

"We have no idea, Ranma. She just took most of her clothes, her mp3 player and some of her personal belongings. She didn't leave a single clue behind except the fact that she's no longer in Nerima, probably not even in Japan."Nabiki said.

"But where could she have gotten the money?"Ranma asked.

"That Singing competition."Kasumi said "She must have used the money she won from that singing contest. She saved half of it, remember."

"Akane!!!"Ranma shouted as he ran out of the house.

"Ranma!"Genma shouted after him but he didn't listen, he just ran to the first place he could think of, the train station.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Akane had boarded the train which was heading towards Tokyo where she would take a plane to L.A. She looked at the train station where many people were saying goodbye to their relatives and friends. She then turned back around and listened to her mp3 player. Unknown to her, if she had looked just a little longer, she would have seen a certain pig tailed martial artist running towards the train station.
