Ch 1. In the Begining......
Tokyo. A city where people live and work. The streets are always crowded and something is always happening, but in a district called Nerima the unusual was the everyday event. Ever since martial artist Ranma Saotome moved into the neighborhood it had been nothing but chaos. It seemed like chaos was very attracted to the young martial artist. To say he had some girl problems would be like saying Mt. Everest was really tall. He had two fiancées, an Amazon wife, and one psychotic gymnast after him and to top it all off he had a curse. He fell into a cursed spring in a place called Jusenkyo in China. Now whenever he gets splashed with cold water, he turns into a girl and his father into a panda. Ranma's fiancées are as interesting as his curse. His first fiancée is one Akane Tendo. She is the youngest daughter of Soun Tendo. Her two older sisters are Kasumi and Nabiki Tendo. She and Ranma have been engaged since before they were born. It seems like Ranma and Akane might like each other, but you wouldn't be able to tell with their constant fighting. Ranma's second fiancée is Ukyo Kuonji. Ukyo is an Okonomiyaki chef who Genma engaged to Ranma when they were little kids. Genma did it to get Ukyo's dads Okonomiyaki cart. Then he and Ranma took off leaving Ukyo behind. You can imagine she wasn't too happy with that. Ukyo rejected her femininity and sought out revenge. Of course that didn't go too well because she forgave Ranma after he called her cute. Next in line is the Amazon warrior Shampoo. Ranma first met her in China after he had obtained his curse. At a tournament, Ranma beat her as a girl and therefore earned himself the kiss of death. This obligated Shampoo to kill girl type Ranma. She failed to the first time so she was tossed into a Jusenkyo spring. She turns into a cat. When he returned to Japan, Shampoo had followed him to restore her honor . He accidentally beat her as a guy and the kiss of death was annulled. Instead he got the kiss of marriage! Now Shampoo was obligated to marry him. Then finally there is the potion crazy Kodachi Kuno. Kodachi fell in love with Ranma after he saved her from falling off of the Tendo's roof. Coincidently it was Ranma who had knocked her off in the first place. This is just some of the people who live or have come to Nerima because of the Saotomes. Cologne, Shampoo's great grandmother, Mousse, her suitor, Ryoga, Pantyhose Taro, and other various marital artist and fiancées have shown up. Things, however, have been quite since the failed wedding of Ranma and Akane. The district was enjoying the serenity since it wasn't going to last… and they were right. A week after the wedding things went back to normal. Ranma was once again running around town with his fiancées, Ryoga and Mousse in tow.
However on this day the Nerima wrecking crew stayed indoors. Why do you ask? A natural occurrence called rain kept them indoors. With more than half the crew inflicted with curses, they preferred not to change. The streets were deserted except for a few people walking to stores or going to restaurants. At the outskirts of town a lone figure walked towards the district. He held an umbrella in his hand, and no this was not Ryoga. He had black spiky hair with bangs framing his face. He wore a black trench coat with a red dragon on the back. Under the coat he wore a black shirt and black baggy pants with boots that had steel toes and heals. The belt around his waist had a K on the buckle and he wore black sweat bands on each wrist. The most unique feature was his eyes. They were two orbs of golden yellow that just seemed to penetrate into your very soul. He noticed a sign and approached it.

If you are here because of one

All dealings that involve Ranma will be handled
through Nabiki Tendo. Thank you !
The stranger shrugged it off and proceeded into town. Some of the people in town noticed the stranger and assumed that he was here for Ranma. However, they were so wrong. The stranger continued walking the streets; ignoring the stares he was receiving from the few people walking. Soon he was walking near a canal. He heard a noise coming from his stomach. He wanted to keep going, but his stomach would not let him be. He looked around for a place to eat. He spotted a restaurant called UCCHANS. There weren't any other places to eat so he made his way towards the restaurant.
Inside Ukyo was having a slow day. The rain kept most of the people indoors. The few customers she did have were already leaving. She figured she might as well close up and relax. She ducked under the counter and walked towards the door. However she stopped when someone stepped in. The guy carefully shook the umbrella and placed it near the exit. He noticed the young woman standing in front of him. She wasn't moving. She just kept staring at him. He looked at the floor, which was now soaked with the water he shook off the umbrella. He figured that 's hwy she kept staring at him.
"I'm sorry about your floor. Are you closing?"
The Ukyo snapped out of her stupor. "Oh, umm, don't worry about the floor. I'll clean it up later. I was going to start closing, but you can still eat if you want."
The stranger nodded in response. "Please have a seat." Ukyo said motioning towards the counter. The young man took a seat at the grill. He watched as the young chef prepared his meal. she expertly flipped the finished okonomiyaki onto his plate. He smiled at her and began to eat his meal. As he ate Ukyo observed her mysterious client. It was apparent he liked to wear black. She noticed his hair was black, but it also had light blue highlights. His eyes were golden yellow. She hadn't seen eyes like his since Herb, Mint, and Lime were in town. She shook her head and went over to the puddle of water by the entrance. She cleaned it up and prepared to close up for the day. The stranger finished eating and turned himself around to observe the young chef. Ukyo noticed he wasn't eating anymore and ducked back behind the grill.
"So, did you enjoy your meal."
He turned around to face her. "Yes, it was delicious. May I have the name of the chef that prepared this meal?"
Ukyo giggled. "Of course! My name is Ukyo Kuonji, but you can just call me Ukyo. Now may I have your name?"
The young man chuckled. "Why not? My name is Kyle Ookami. You can just call me Kyle."
"Kyle? Are you from America? You sure don't look like it."
"Well I'm actually from Japan, but my parents died and some people from America adopted me."
"Oh, I'm sorry."
"Don't worry about."
There was an uncomfortable silence after that. Ukyo decided to break the ice. "So…what brings you to town?"
"I'm looking for someone."
"Don't tell me your looking for Ran-chan."
"Who?"
"Ranma Saotome."
"So you know the guy?"
"Yes, are you looking for him?" she said with a frown.
Kyle shook his head. "No, I'm not but I saw his name on a sign before I came into the ward."
Ukyo let our a sigh of relief. "So who are you looking for?"
Kyle looked a little more serious. "I'm looking for some one named Ko Lon."
"Who? Is that Chinese."
Kyle sighed and re-said the name. "I believe the Japanese translation is Cologne."
Ukyo's eyes widened in surprise. "Why are you looking for her?!"
"Sorry but I can't say. So you know where I can find her?"
Ukyo nodded and directed him in the right direction.
"Well thank-you. See ya around."
"Bye!" Ukyo waved as her customer left her restaurant.
Kyle walked out once again in the rain towards his destination. Personally, Kyle didn't want to be here. However Cologne was the only one who could help him with his problem. His sensei refused to tell him how to solve his problem, so instead his was sent on this trip to find out himself. It was typical for his sensei to make something very simple into something very hard. He stopped when he saw the Neko Hanten. The sign on the door said it was closed. He frowned, but he couldn't do much. He remembered seeing a hotel somewhere back towards the canal. So he walked back in that direction. Kyle reached the hotel and got a room. He fell on his bed and promptly fell asleep. In the morning he washed his clothes and took a shower before heading out to the Neko Hanten. He walked outside and was thankful there wasn't a cloud in the sky. The streets were filled with puddles and kids were jumping in them while their mothers yelled at them. The Neko Hanten was in his sights when he felt something was wrong. His danger sense was going off the radar. He quickly turned around to find various sharp objects flying in his direction. He quickly back flipped out of the way. As soon as he landed he got into a defensive stance. His first thought was to kill his attacker, but he knew his sensei would kill him if he killed anyone. Cursing his luck, he prepared to attack his opponent.
"Die Ranma!"
It looked like Kyle was in for a fun visit with Cologne.
