Ranma's unjust reckoning

Ranma didn't want to break down and cry again, especially in the middle of her story. So she used the soul of ice to calm herself down enough to tell her story with no problems.

"Well you see Ami, it started on the day of my birthday, January the thirteenth nineteen ninety six."

Ranma awoke to find herself covered in ice cold water and very wet 'Ah great. Another one of pops early morning wakeup calls' although what she heard next was not her father's usual monologue of "Wake up boy, your becoming soft" it was something far more terrifying and bone chilling that could haunt any girl in her nightmares for the rest of eternity.

"SWEETO!"

'No, no anything but him' Ranma quickly jumped out of bed doing a backwards somersault into the wall behind her. As she hit the wall, she used her legs to bounce back off the wall and landed perfectly onto the empty floor space a few feet behind her now soaking wet futon.

It has only been a two days since the failed wedding. After the incident with Saffron, Ranma had felt rather confident about her ki abilities. Up till the wedding Ranma was making great progress on her control of her ki and chi, she had been able to project her ki to sense her surroundings and the level of ki and chi possessed by someone. She had even learnt how to draw small amounts of ki directly out of her immediate environment, allowing her to use the energy as she saw fit. However Ranma reached her pinnacle in her new found abilities just before the failed wedding.

At first she thought that she was just getting nervous about the wedding about getting stuck with that uncute tomboy, but since the failed wedding nothing has changed in her abilities. She had been practicing for hours on end hours a day to try and become better, but something has been stopping her from improving. Each time she felt like she had just about got it and reached the next level of her abilities, it would escape her and leave her frustrated. The residents of the Tendo dojo have realized this too due to that fact that she has been very moody about her inability to improve. Thus they have tried to avoid confronting Ranma whenever possible. Her frustration had been quickly turning into anger and they didn't want to be the one Ranma took her frustrations out on.

Thus when Ranma saw the little troll in front of her she saw red. This spawn of hell standing a mere two meters away from her would be the only person with the motive and abilities to prevent her from progressing in the art "YOU! This is your fault isn't it?"

Happousai wasn't stupid he knew perfectly well why Ranma was so angry. It was the whole reason he came up to wake Ranma up. To be frank, he was rather unhappy with Ranma's progress and the amount of anger he was beginning to build. People were beginning to be afraid to be within ten meters of Ranma's vicinity.

He quickly pounced onto Ranma and groped her covered breasts "Why whatever do you mean Ranma m'boy. Of course I was the one to wet you. Is there anyone else in this house that is stupid enough to be in the same room with you?"

Happousai's reply was a sickly blood red glow which began to surround Ranma's form as she spoke. She looked down upon Happousai and spoke slowly with a tone of voice that was colder then sub zero "You know what I am talking about old letch. Tell me now or the school of 'Anything goes martial arts' will be down by one grandmaster" the way she spoke gave all intentions that Happousai was going to be in a world of pain.

Happousai dropped off of the raging girl's breasts and began to walk out of the room. As he neared the door he turned his head towards Ranma looking at her directly in the eyes. Narrowing his eyes at Ranma he spoke "Ranma m'boy you have such a great body. It is a shame you do not see that"

As he turned to leave the room Ranma attacked. As she charged like a bull with her right fist raised at the ready he yelled "You old letch, don't think you can get away with this"

As she neared Happousai she brought her fist down upon his tiny form. Although Ranma was using her new found abilities to greatly increase her strength and speed, which could have easily killed the old man if it hit, she was still nowhere near Happousai's level. With a flick of his pipe, Happousai used Ranma's momentum and power against her and sent her flying through the roof aiming Ranma towards the cat café.

As Ranma flew through the air she quickly straightened herself out so she wouldn't go head first into a concrete road. Looking down on the ground she saw that she was falling towards the cat café near the back entrance. With a closer look she also noticed that Cologne was standing on top of her staff outside of the café just a meter from Ranma's landing spot looking up at her, shaking her head clearly in disgust. As she neared the ground she prepared for the landing. With practiced precision (Due to Mallet-sama) she landed on the ground as if it had only been a small hop. As she landed softly on the ground Cologne hopped over to her and bopped her on the head with her staff.

"Ouch! What'd ya do that for old ghoul?" yelled an annoyed Ranma, rubbing her head where she has been bopped.

Cologne sighed "Son in law you are as blind as Mousse and as thick as Kuno" Ranma's right eye began to twitch.

"I am amazed Happy hadn't sent you my way sooner, it is clear that you need some help to lower that anger of yours."

Ranma was getting frustrated at the old ghoul "Help with my anger? I don't need help with my anger. I need help at figuring out what the old letch did to me that has stopped me from improving my ki and chi abilities"

Cologne hopped up into the air and bopped Ranma over the head again with her staff "No son in law, Happy did not cause your inability to improve"

Ranma tilted her head in confusion before her eyes narrowed with an accusing look at the old woman in front of her "Well then who the hell did?"

Cologne let out another sigh "Son in law you are the only person preventing yourself from improving. Go home and think about it. I can't tell you why you are preventing yourself because if I did then you will forever be stuck at your current level unable to improve"

Ranma's face began to shift from anger to worry "W-what do you mean old ghoul?"

Cologne looked sympathetically at the neo-girl in front of her "All I can say son in law is that you are currently at your peak and you will not improve further till you can solve your problem"

Ranma blinked "So it is my curse then?"

"Son in law I can not answer that question. You must find the answers to your problem on your own. Otherwise you will never gain the knowledge you need to continue your training. I recommend you quit training yourself except for keeping yourself fit and meditate on your problem. If you just think about it, you might actually be able to solve the problem within the week"

She gave Ranma a big grin "Now get out of here son in law, I don't want my beautiful granddaughter to distract your from your concentration." She said this with a chuckle.

Ranma paused for a moment 'It's my damned curse, it's got to be. I have never had any problems getting better at my martial arts my whole life and now suddenly I can't improve anymore. Cologne was too quick at dismissing the curse, so how could it be anything else. Damn it, I have to find a cure no matter what. I'm a guy!' and she turned to leave.

As Ranma neared the exit of the alley she heard from behind her "Oh and Son in law… Happy birthday"

Surprised Ranma tuned around only to find the alley empty. With a lone tear sliding down the side of her face she whispered to the air "Thanks Cologne"

As she turned to leave she was once again interrupted by the familiar sound of an army of girls in the distance screaming at the top of their lungs "PERVERT!"

With a loud sigh Ranma continued her trek home back to the Tendo dojo "Happousai never learns"

Ranma was about half way back to the dojo when she heard another familiar battle cry from behind her "RANMA PREPARE TO DIE!" followed by a loud explosion.

Ranma quickly about faced to fight off her opponent only to find the road behind her empty, except now there was a crater ten meters behind her "Huh?" 'I was sure Ryoga was calling from behind. Strange.'

Not letting her guard down, she turned back around once more and continued her way back to the Tendo dojo. When the Tendo dojo came into view she noticed a new Ryoga shaped hole in the roof 'Now how did he do that?'

As she stepped into the compound and neared the front door she heard yet another familiar and terrifying battle cry "RANMA NO BAKA!" The last thing Ranma saw before slipping into unconsciousness was Akane bringing her Mallet-sama down upon Ranma's head with all her might.

For once in a very, very long time, Ranma had a completely undisturbed sleep. There were no dreams, nor were there nightmares, just a nice, calm and very weird feeling sleep.

As she came to, she felt different. It was a strange but yet unpleasantly feeling different. She couldn't put her finger on it, but she new she had never felt this way before. It was such a familiar feeling, it made her feel queasy and terrified 'What is wrong with me? I feel so strange. I know I have felt this before, but when was the last time I felt this way?' as she was thinking she noticed another strange feeling, but she had never felt this feeling before. She felt so complete, but at the same time as if she had lost something very important to her. She looked down at her body and without even realizing it she smiled at what she saw, and then just as quickly forced that smile back down again 'What the hell. Why did I just smile at my girl body? Humph there ain't anything great about this damn curse of mine' but for some reason she couldn't force herself to believe what she just thought. Confused at her strange behaviour she decided to get up.

After getting up and straightening out her clothes, she looked up at the clock on her side wall 'Hmm six pm. I have been out for nine hours. That tomboy must have hit me hard this time. I wonder what could have upset her so much' then she remembered something very important about tonight "Damn it. It's six. Mother will be here in an hour. She said that she has a great surprise for me today. She wouldn't tell me what it was, but the look on her face told me that it it's going to be special. I have to go down stairs and help prepare for her arrival. After the failed wedding she didn't look upset, she actually looked ecstatic. Then she went and told me it didn't matter and that she had a great surprise for my birthday. I hope that she hasn't arrived early' After taking a whiff of the air and smelling Kasumi's great cooking, she quickly left her room and flew down the stair case.

What she saw down stairs would torment her mind throughout the next year. Her father and Mr Tendo as usual were getting drunk and playing shogi. However both of them were acting very unusual. It was the little things, like the fact that there was ten bottles of empty sake near them, but they were still sober. Also the very grim looks on their faces and the fact that they weren't cheating for a change didn't help but to prove her worries. They noticed Ranma's entry, but went back to playing their game.

At first thought she thought that Happousai might have done something to them, but yet the little troll was sitting at the opposite side of the room from Ranma, with a serious look on his face watching Ranma rather closely.

Nabiki noticed everyone's strange behaviour and was watching them all very carefully before noticing Ranma's entry. After noticing the response Ranma gained by Soun, Genma and Happousai she shuddered violently before closing her eyes and rubbing her temples.

Kasumi walked into the room caring a plate of food. But Ranma could see that everyone's moods were also affecting Kasumi. Rather then having her usual bright smile that she would wear everywhere, she had a rather worried look upon her face indicating that she knew something was wrong but couldn't figure out what. As she walked over to the table and placed the food down, she looked up and noticed Ranma standing in the hallway watching everyone.

"Oh good afternoon Ranma-chan and happy birthday" her face went from worried to having the biggest brightest smile she had shown to date.

In the corner of the room Akane was petting her pet pig P-chan. After hearing Kasumi's proclamation of Ranma being in the room, she looked up to find where the baka was. Once she found Ranma she carefully put her pig down, who also saw Ranma and started growling at the Red head. She got up and started walking over to the door where Ranma was standing. Starting to glow red from anger, her mallet formed in her hand.

Kasumi's bright smile suddenly disappeared back to her worried smile. Worried that Akane might knock Ranma out for another nine hours she quickly spoke up in a stern voice that left no room for argument "Akane-chan stop right this instant"

From the tone of Kasumi's voice that she had never heard before, Akane stopped suddenly dumbfounded, her glow faded and her mallet disappeared. She turned to face Kasumi who had an angry look on her face. At the look of Kasumi's face and the stern tone in her voice, Akane began to tear at her eyes "But, but Kasumi he deserves it for what he did"

Although shocked by Kasumi's sudden outburst, Ranma was a little surprised by Akane's accusation "What do you mean what I did, what did I do?"

Akane quickly turned to face Ranma; her temper began to rise again "You know what you did pervert. You got up early so you could go to the cat café and chase Shampoo. A bunch of girls were attacked by Happousai today but you didn't turn up to help them. You were probably too busy being a pervert and helping him in your girl form, or went off to try your luck at chasing Ukyo. After all that you had to go and beat up poor Ryoga again" she began to glow red again and her mallet hand began to twitch.

Ranma's facial expression became rather frosty at Akane's nonsense "What the hell are you going on about you tomboy. I did no such thing. I got woken up early by Happousai then nocked into the sky. I fell down at the cat café and had a word with Cologne. I think that she might try to keep Shampoo away from me for a while. After that I heard the girls scream in the distance, but I was too far away to help them. After that I heard Ryoga's battle cry, but he had vanished without a sight. Then you go and wack me into unconsciousness" her tone of voice dripped with venom.

Akane snorted "And why should I believe that? You are nothing but a pervert, your just lying" her mallet reappeared and she got ready to swing it at Ranma.

This time Nabiki came in for the save "Akane I wouldn't do that if I were you. Ranma is telling the truth"

Once again Akane was so surprised she stopped glowing and her mallet disappeared. She knew perfectly well that Nabiki wouldn't lie and she knew Nabiki wouldn't say such a thing unless she knew what happened. But she couldn't ask Nabiki why she knew such a thing because Nabiki would charge her for her information. Grumbling she sat down at the table and began to eat.

The other members of the household decided to join in with her in hopes to calm her down before Ranma's temper from the last few days began to rise again. Although not one of them realised that she had already lost her temper because of her earlier talk with Cologne.

Ranma was dumbfounded. First Kasumi tells Akane off, and then Nabiki saves Ranma. Then Akane who was strangely a lot madder then usual, also calmed down. Akane never calms down, she always mallets Ranma. So nervously Ranma sat down and began to eat.

Now Ranma was truly terrified. Something was definitely going to happen, and soon at that. The meal went without a word spent, and it proceeded at normal human speed. Not only did Genma not attempt to steal Ranma's food, but he also ate slowly. The not stealing food wouldn't have worried Ranma so much seeing that it was her birthday, however the eating slowly terrified her.

After finishing eating Happousai through Ranma a little box wrapped up in gift paper. She looked down at it before looking up at Happousai and narrowing her eyes "Why should I accept this ya old pervert? It's probably panties and a bra"

Happousai shook his head "Ranma m'girl, you might want to be wearing those by the end of the night. I am sure they might help you with your new job"

Genma and Soun flinched at those words while Ranma only became confused "Huh?" she didn't notice the way Happousai had suddenly changed the wording from m'boy to m'girl.

Happousai's battle aura began to flare up to full levels "Ranma seeing that you are now completely useless in the art and will probably never get any better at it at your rate I had decided to look after you and find you a job. Without your martial arts you are a useless man, so I thought you could do with a job as a woman. It's only proper for a weak little girl like you to find a job as a girl, right Genma?"

Akane snickered while Nabiki and Kasumi looked shocked. Both girls looked to be quite worried as they realised that Ranma had been setup. Soun and Genma knew what was about to happen or what had already happened, and they haven't even voiced their concerns about it to Happousai. Just as they were about to warn Ranma, Ranma got up and charged at Happousai.

Ranma didn't know what Happousai was rambling on about, but he knew what he was getting at 'How dare he think of me as a girl. I am a guy god damn it, not a weak girl' With that thought she stood up charged at Happousai again telegraphing her move with a punch that would kill the old letch.

However once again it didn't go like Ranma wanted it to. The punch connected with Happousai's face directly but he didn't even budge. The shocked look on Ranma's face brought a big grin to Happousai who grabbed her by the wrist to prevent her from escaping.

"Ranma m'girl that is the second time today that you have let your temper control your actions. I hope you enjoyed your last family meal because I doubt with your new job you will be seeing the Tendo's for a long time"

He brought her ear down to his face and whispered into it so no one could hear "Don't bother trying to use hot water to turn back into a guy, it's not possible girly. Also you should gain your strength back in about eleven months"

Then the sudden realisation hit her. Happousai had done the 'Ultimate Weakness Moxibustion' on her; he had also done something to her to prevent her from returning to her birth form "Damn you Happousai. I won't forget this" and with that he flung her through the roof into the stars.

Ami didn't like what she was hearing one bit 'What am I supposed to do? She believes her story very strongly, I can see it in her eyes how much she is struggling not to cry'

Ranma noticed that Ami's attention was not entirely there "That was the last time I had seen the Tendo's and my no good father. However I doubt that it was the last time I saw Happousai. Only he has the Nanban mirror which caused me even more problems and took my child away from me" she spoke the last part with a snarl which didn't go unnoticed by Carl and Tanaka, who slowly backed away from the bed.

Ami grabbed Ranma gently by the hands and asked her in a caring tone of voice "Something important happened after that?"

Ranma let out a sigh and reinforced the soul of ice. It would take a lot of effort to stop her from breaking down from the next part "Yes. He set me up completely. He made sure I would land at Tankata slums"

Ami didn't like the sound of that, Tankata slums are well known to be the centre of prostitution in Tokyo. She gulped before saying "Please continue Ranma"

She gave a short pause seeing the upset look in Ranma's eyes "That is if you're willing to continue"

Ranma nodded "I'm fine. Well I didn't really get much of a chance to decide my future after I landed, it happened so quickly"

Nine and a half years ago

Tankata slums

Ranma had landed softly into an alley way behind an old brick building. The alley was barely four meters wide while only had one exit. Behind her was a big green trash dumpster which was overflowing with all kinds of rubbish. Because it was night time, the alley was dark which didn't help Ranma who was having a bit of trouble trying to see from her already spinning head. If she wasn't so dizzy and disorientated she would have realized that she was in trouble and fled the alley that very moment. However she could barely even think let alone comprehend Happousai's last words to her.

"Well, well, well. What do we have here?" came a masculine voice from behind her.

Ranma gulped and slowly turned to see who was speaking to her. She saw two men with low strength compared to hers. Then heard another one come from behind her, but it was too late as he grabbed her and wouldn't release her "Looks like a real beauty. She would probably bring in a nice sum of cash"

Ranma was terrified now. However she didn't know why she was terrified. Her father's view on sex was that it was a distraction from the art. Thus he decided to keep Ranma in the dark about sex. Ranma had no idea what these men wanted, but she knew whatever it was mustn't be good.

The third man spoke "Yeah she would earn us a pretty penny. But we better test the goods to make sure that she is worth it." All the men had big evil grins on their faces "Such a nice body you have babe. Don't mind if I take a look do you?" he chuckled evilly.

In the cold dark streets of Tankata no one cared about the loud blood curdling scream coming from one of the back alleys.

------------------------------

Two hours later a group of three men dragged a semi conscious, naked Ranma into Tankata's largest brothel 'The black dragon'. There they were greeted by a tall woman with black hair wearing a black leather dominatrix outfit.

"And what can I do for you boys today?" the dominatrix lady asked.

The leader of the pack grabbed Ranma by the arm and brought her into view of the woman "We found her in a back alley two hundred meters from here. Thought we could sell her to you. Was quiet a surprise to find that she was a virgin, so she should be easily trained"

The woman looked at him with a neutral face before examining Ranma's naked body "Hmmm. She is in great shape, should have plenty of stamina this one. Some scars, but nothing too serious. She has an excellent body figure, with nice plump breasts. Definitely a virgin before you got to her, would be a pain to train her, but probably worth it. I will give you two hundred thousand yen for her."

The three men whistled before all three of them said in unison "Deal"

The woman walked over to the other side of the room to where the till sat. She opened the till and pulled out a bunch of notes. She walked back over to the three men and passed them their money. The three men looked quiet happy. The leader counted the money.

After he had finished counting he looked up at her "It's all here. Thanks doing business with you" He then passed Ranma onto the woman in black "See ya round babe. Have fun" The three of them left laughing.

The woman then turned around to face a short woman with blonde hair. She wore an outfit similar to the black haired lady, except where the black haired ladies private parts were hidden with her outfit, the blondes were not and all her important parts were shown for the world to see.

"Sammy, take her to the back and get her cleaned up. Then take her to her room so she can be trained"

Sammy nodded indifferently "Yes Mistress Katrina"

Sammy walked over to the mistress and Ranma. She grabbed Ranma by the arm and dragged her away. Sammy cleaned Ranma up and dressed her into some sexy clothing designed to appeal to any man's heart. She then took Ranma to her new room and laid her down upon her bed. Throughout all this Ranma wasn't entirely there. Her mind had shut down and went into automatic after she had been forcefully taken. After Sammy left the room Ranma finally began to wake. Recalling the horrific things that had just been done to her and what she did in return, she broke down and began to cry.

At that moment her new mistress came into the room carrying a leather whip "Quit you're crying girly. You now work for us and it is your job to pleasure men. Don't worry about getting pregnant; we have the chemicals needed to stop that. You just have to worry about learning how to pleasure others. It is time to start you're training" Katrina walked over to the bed Ranma was laying on and began 'training' Ranma in her new arts.

After three hours of 'training' Katrina decided it was time to test to see how good Ranma was now. Thus they practically kidnapped some poor guy off of the street and told Ranma to make him into a man. They then left Ranma and the terrified man alone in the room to get better acquainted.

The man was four foot, eleven inches tall. His face was soft and slightly feminine, his most feminine feature was probably his strange hair style. His hair was blonde and was done up to have two dumplings on both sides, with long ponytails running from each dumpling. He was completely naked and was completely terrified of what was about to be forced upon him.

Neither Ranma nor the man really wanted to do anything and wanted to wait till her mistress would let the poor man out. But something happened. There was a strange smell in the room that was shutting off both of their higher brain function. What happened next neither of them could control as they both willingly had sex with each other. What was even stranger was that the smell disappeared after they started, but neither of them wished to stop.

After four hours of mindless sex they finally stoped. Ranma wasn't sure why, but she felt safe with this man, so she cuddled up to him in bed. She looked into his blue eyes. His eyes were like a mirror of hers, they both showed deep love for each other and she couldn't figure out why she felt this way for this man. He too seemed to be confused about his feelings for her.

After a few minutes of looking into each others eyes, she spoke softly, with a caring tone of voice into his ear "What is your name?"

He looked down lovingly at her once more before answering in an equally soft and caring voice "Usagi. My name is Usagi, the prince of the moon. How did you get here?"

And so Ranma told Usagi her tale of sorrow since she woke up earlier that morning.

Usagi started to cry in compassion for the poor girl in his arms "That's so sad Ranma. It's your birthday today and you have been tortured severely for nothing. I promise you, In the name of the moon, I will try to find a way for you to get out of here and escape" he then kissed Ranma on the lips which she returned.

(Right now Ami is beginning to bug out about the strange twist Ranma's story has taken 'Usagi's a girl, not to mention that was nine and a half years ago. How in the world? Maybe the moon kingdom had a prince that no one can remember. Or perhaps Luna accidentally let it slip while she was hunting for the sailors scouts all those years ago. Boy Luna and Usagi are not going to be happy when they find out about this guy')

Ranma looked at Usagi with only love in her eyes "It's not all that bad. At least I got to meet you" she gave Usagi a cute giggle.

'What's wrong with me? I am still me and I hate being a girl. So why am I acting this way? Why do I love this guy? No matter how hard I try I can't seem to hate him. And why do I feel so strange on the inside? When I was raped earlier I didn't feel this strange, but now I do after being with Usagi'

Before Usagi could give an answer to his new lover the door opened to reveal Ranma's Mistress Katrina "Well times up you two. You did a good job Ranma"

She looked over at Usagi "It's time for you to leave now sir. I hope you had fun and will visit us again. Don't worry about paying for tonight, think of it as a free sample. Till later"

With that two large men came through the door, walked up to the bed and grabbed Usagi by each arm. They then proceeded to drag him quiet unwillingly out of the room and out of the building.

"A piece of advice Ranma; don't get attached to the men" With that she too left the room.

After three months of staying and working at the black dragon Ranma had never seen her prince again. She had cried herself to sleep many nights wondering if he really ever cared about her. During one morning she became rather sick. Sammy had recognised the symptoms of Ranma's sickness and had her checked for pregnancy. It was a surprise to everyone in the building and most especially Ranma who fainted, to find that Ranma was three months pregnant. After Ranma had come too, she knew who made her pregnant. Although she was weak due to the Moxibustion she could still use her ki senses and was able to identify whose child it was. Although many times the mistress and her employees tried to terminate Ranma's pregnancy, it would seem that her child was protected by some strong magic.

Ranma could sense the magic in her and was able to understand how it worked. The magic was another type of ki and chi technique that she was able to copy. What she found stranger then the child being protected by magic, was that it was being protected by two types of magic. If one type of magic was caused by Usagi, then who caused the other type? The question ran through her head many times, but she could never figure out whom.

After the mistress realized that the abortions they were trying weren't working, she decided Ranma was almost useless. Although she knew after Ranma had her baby she would recover her great figure, Katrina was just plain unhappy that Ranma couldn't attract anyone while she was pregnant. So she constantly beat, whipped, hit Ranma whenever she needed some steam to blow.

The night giving birth to her baby was the worst. The moment she gave birth to her child Katrina decided to kill it. However even though Ranma was severely weekend she wouldn't have it. She grabbed her child to try and protect it. She was beaten and beaten to try and get her to drop the child, but no matter what happened Ranma refused to let any harm befall upon her child. Then she snapped.

Although she couldn't beat them up because of the Moxibustion she couldn't resort to hitting them, her mind still raged at their attempt to kill her child, and the fact that she was being beaten to an inch of her life. None of the people around her noticed the sickly green and red glow that had formed around Ranma until it was too late.

Channelling all her chi she yelled at the top of her lungs "Kubochi rippuku bakuha!"

Like a large bomb, the enormous amount of emotional energy channelled from her attack shot out in all directions. Everyone in the room beside Ranma and her child were instantly vaporised by the blast. It completely levelled the room before Ranma decided it was enough and shot the rest of the remaining energy straight up into the sky where it couldn't hurt anyone. If anyone saw the incident they would have witnessed an enormous pillar of green and red light five meters wide, shoot up into the heavens, piercing the clouds and shooting through anything thing that got in its way.

Although Ranma was exhausted, badly bruised, beaten, bleeding badly and wanted to drop to her knees and pass out, she didn't. Gathering all her strength and channelling all of her ki into her legs, she ran. She ran faster then she had ever run before. After running for thirty long minutes she took a bad turn and found herself in an alley with only one exit, which was the way she came in. Knowing that she long ago lost all her pursuer's she dropped to her knees and began to cry.

'What have I done? I have murdered four people' Only now did she notice that her child had stopped crying once she had blown away the room and she panicked "No, NO! Please be alright. Please"

She tore off her shirt and placed it carefully on the ground putting her child on top. Although she noticed that her child seemed alive, she also noticed that the child was growing weaker by the second.

"Noo, please don't die. Please be alright" Her voice was broken from emotion.

Although she was panicked about her child she knew what she had to do. She quickly gathered all of her remaining ki and chi and brought it into her hands. Her hands began to glow white from the raw energy that was stored in them. Placing her hands over her child she began to feed the baby all of her energy to make sure that it would survive the night. Once Ranma was completely drained and knew that the baby would survive, she collapsed to the ground. She struggled to stay conscious as she watched her sweet and innocent baby live, she only hoped that the baby would live and didn't care about herself 'My child, I wish we could go away from this all. To a place were we could be safe from all this' as she made this silent wish a mirror suddenly fell under her eyes which she recognised immediately to be the Nanban mirror. She couldn't stop her tears in time as they struck the surface of the mirror. She took one look at her child who was too far away from the mirror to be teleported too 'No, I don't want to leave my child' beforefading from this time stream she took notice that her child was a little girl with pink hair 'I will do me hardest to find you my child. Wherever I may be taken, I will find you' as she made her silent vow she suddenly disappeared from existence.
