DiScLaImEr: Yup yup yup.... u know the deal...

HEHE wasn't that an interesting twist!?!?...Hmm...does she really have a cure?

All three stood there; two of them in shock and the third busy rubbing her face on the gentleman's arm.

"You heard right! Shampoo said she has cure, but if airen want to know secret cure, great grand mother say airen must go to cat café right now." Shampoo said grinning widely.

"Well what are you waiting for, lets go!" Ranma grabbed Shampoo's hand and started running with her to the cat café.

"HEY! Wait for me!" Akane trailed behind. She grabbed her running shoes out of her handbag put them on and chased after the other two. (Man, knowing Ranma, ANYTHING can happen, so I'm glad that I came prepared this time.)

The three ran through the streets of Nermia. They stopped when they got to the doors of the cat café. When the three entered there they saw cologne sitting at a table one the telephone with scrolls and books scattered all over the table. She motioned to the three to come in and take a seat at the table with her.

"Yes... I see...well...okay...is that so? ...mmm hmm... well then...are you sure it will work?... okay... I'll tell them...okay...goodbye." Cologne then hung up the phone and looked up at the three smiling.

"Shampoo, I thought you said you would bring Ranma back. Unless Ranma has two bodies, I don't think that you have only brought HIM back." Cologne said in mandarin.

"Yes great grand mother I know, but she followed us here." Shampoo replied.

Cologne rolled her eyes and began to speak to Ranma, "Well son in law I'm glad that you could make it on such short notice, I hope you weren't doing anything important."

"No it was nothing; and of course I could make it if there is a cure to my curse involved."

Akane started to fume, but kept her anger under control. (It was NOTHING, he says!...This... This... it's not fair...)

"Good. Well I just got off of the phone with a very good friend of mine who I have asked to find a cure for your curse so that Shampoo could have a normal marriage and life to a man. But first I would like to tell you that Shampoo and I have both accepted the terms that you have placed before us about wanting to choose who you marry. We respect your decision, but would like you to know that in no way will we give up. Do you understand?" Ranma nodded. "Alright then, now that that has been established, lets get down to business, I'm just going to cut to the chase. There is a cure for the curse and the procedure is simple, but quiet complex at the same time."

She searched through the papers on the table and pulled on out that had several drawings on it.

"It is said that on the first full moon of the last month of the year, that if ones love for another is really true and unconditional, that if the two drink from the cup with the ancient tea of the amazons in it that all curses on both shall be lifted. But, if the two are not truly in love, than whatever the curse is on the man, shall be permanent unless he marries an Amazon, which will then lift the curse. But that can only be done after one has drunken the tea."

There was silence for a moment until Akane spoke. "Why is it that only the curse on the male stays?" Cologne turned to her to answer her.

"As you can tell this is an Amazon remedy. The males are naturally lower and it would be too great a loss for an Amazon woman to have to suffer from a curse."

Akane was about to say something else when Ranma spoke.

"When is the next full moon?" he asked with a very serious and less enthused look on his face.

"You have exactly 21 days until the next full moon. But to get the ingredients we will have to go to china tonight to get them. There a ball is being thrown for the strongest and most beautiful martial artists of the world. So I suggest you come along with me."

"Okay, I'll call my parents and let them know that I am leaving immediately" Ranma then got up from the table and walked to go use the phone that was on the wall so he would be far away enough from them so that they would not be able to hear the conversation.

"I guess that would explain why you are so dressed up then shampoo, huh?" asked suddenly wanting to cry, pass out and vomit all at the same time.

"Well DUH! Shampoo very beautiful strong martial artist, that why she invited to party!"

"I see." She said very dully. "Cologne, if you don't mind, may I come too? I promise I won't interfere."

"I suppose. You are lucky that you are dressed for the occasion also, otherwise I surely would have said no."

"Thank you" Akane replied. The four walked out of the café and headed to the airport. All four with different thoughts on their minds all referring to one person... Ranma.

Cologne

(Shampoo better not do anything stupid to mess this up. This will be her chance to finally catch son-in-law. Akane can't love him; look at how she treats him. And after what I have planned at the ball... her jealousy will surely take over and any feelings she has for him will be gone indefinitely.)

Shampoo

(Now Shampoo get Airen all for self. He drink from cup of on that don't love him and then he will have to marry shampoo!)

Akane

(This is just soooo great. Now I'll really lose him. What if he does find someone else that loves him and he loves her, then where will that leave me? I know where it will leave me...alone. But I guess what is important is that he is happy... even if it isn't with me.)

Ranma

(::Never gonna be a girl again...never gonna be a girl again:: wait...who am I kidding...find someone who loves me unconditionally. Like anyone could ever love a sex-changing freak like me... but then again, I could just drink from the cup and then afterwards marry an Amazon. But then that would put shampoo first in line and I can't let that happen... plus... it would hurt akane too much. ::sighs:: oh Akane, why can't you just love me for who I am, then I wouldn't have to fight so hard to find a cure for myself so that would will love me. I want everything to be perfect for you Akane, and that can't happen I I'm like this...changing from a guy to a girl and back again. That's the main reason why I broke the engagement. To give you the chance to find someone better than I am and so I would have time to find a cure. It was a risk I know because what if you really DID find someone else, then where would that leave me?...Oh wait, I forgot, you already did...) Ranma cringed at the thought and tried to fight back the tears, but instead he just rubbed his eyes to maybe give them an excuse for turning red.
