Chapter Nine"So, what do we do?" Akane asked Ranma from where she was sitting.
Kaede, who was tending to the fire, overheard Akane say this and suggested, "Why don't ye help me gather medicinal herbs from the forest?"
Akane looked up at the old woman standing before her, "Sure, it'll be helpful and give us something to do."
A few minutes later they left the village and headed out into the forest. Kaede taught them about what herbs were good and had medicinal uses and what were dangerous or poisonous. After she had taught them this Akane and Ranma went off by themselves to look for the herbs.
Akane walked down a nature-made path all the while staring down at ground looking for the right kind of plant. She spent about half an hour doing this until she started to get tired and sat down at the base of a tree that was nearby and thought.
What if I can never get home? She sighed and laid her head back against the tree. More thought accumulated over the period of time that she was alone. What if we're stuck here forever? And what about that guy in the monkey suit? What did he mean that he's coming back to get us? Soon Ranma appeared from seemingly nowhere and managed to climb up the tree to sit on a high branch.
"What's with you Akane Slacking off?"
She turned and glared up at him but didn't say anything. She turned back to face straight ahead trying to him.
"Geez, your in a pissy m-"
Akane heard him cut off and she turned around to se what happened. He was gone.
Note: Hmmm…what ever happened to Ranma? I'll just leave you with that last thought.
Cya! (PS. Review PLEASE!)
