Chp. 6 The solution and inevitable revert ion
(oco) ok so I calmed down so what if people don't like what I write I'M writing right o.0. well I just wanted to say that I show you chapter 6 now - ps. I revised chp. 5 if you haven't already found out
With what little money Ranma was on her way to China.
Ranma relaxed while on the plane what did his mother think when she used the pail that he couldn't reverse it sure it was a shock , but Really how did she even learn about the pail (either does the author XD clever woman) in any case his curse will be broken and he can change back into a man again but he didn't dare go to Jusenkyo for fear of falling into the wrong spring lousy guide can't even keep track until the victim emerges then he knows who it is.
"Please fasten you're seatbelts we will be arriving in Xiawang city."
(made up place that's magically ten minutes from the musk's village)
Ranma closed his eyes he would soon be male and the there's nothing his mother could do.
Nodoka sat in Ranma's room in tears, the pail was strewn across the room she could remember the events that took place right after Nodoka told Ranma it was to be tougher.
"From now on it will be a lot tougher."
"I hate you! I'm leaving!" Ranma jumped out the window.
"Mrs. Saotome…." Akane responded wearily but all Nodoka could hear has those words running through her head.
"Wha.. What have I done?"
The Tendo's left the failed mother alone Genma sat beside her despite being a lazy fat furry father he could still be a devoted husband…. At times
"There there dear, I'm sure Ranma doesn't really hate you, you know teenagers raging hormones and Ranma has a lot of both hormones."
"I'm horrible I couldn't see that my own daughter was suffering." Nodoka clenched Genma's gi and began to cry silently. Genma just sat there motionless tears staining his clothes.
"We have now landed in Xaiwang city, please gather you're belongings."
Ranma hopped off the plane and started running towards the musk village he had to get the kettle at al cost. He hopped and skipped over hills and what seemed like mountains until finally he began to see the Musk's grand viilage.
"Halt who goes there…. Oh its Saotome." The gaurds replied with a sigh "I want a fight"
"I'm here to see Herb." The petite girl demanded in the loudest voice that could even command a man.
"Very well we shall inform Master Herb. Come with us." The guard gestured into the village.
Ranma found herself standing in front of the huge mansion that is Herb's "Herb I need the unlocking Kettle." She announced in that o so demanding voice.
Herb stepped out onto the balcony "There's no need to shout, come inside."
Ranma walked inside there were great halls of gold and silver, the guards ushered her into Herb's domain.
"So you want the unlocking kettle for what may I ask." Herb had a Smirk on his face
Ranma grinned "You should know." She poured Herb's hot tea over herself
"Hmmmm, I see how did this happen."
"Well…" Ranma began telling the long story of what happened to Her. (it took hours)
"I see, and you're mother is she doing this just to be mean?"
"Well no, I guess not." Ranma look down on herself.
"Then why do you think she is doing this?" Herb asked with an inquisitive nature.
"Because she's insane!" Ranma slammed her hand on the table "She thinks that I have to be a suitable woman when I'm really a man. It doesn't make any sense!"
"You think that huh. So I should give you the unlocking kettle, I really don't think that's a good idea."
"Herb you know I can snap you in two now don't you." Ranma said with a smirk and went into her classic fighting pose.
Herb Smirked "Yes I know, I heard all about Saffron's death from my informants."
"And you still won't give me the kettle?"
"Ranma according to you're story you're mother was never there for you're childhood and you grew up without a mother right?"
"Yes" Ranma looked at the musk in curiosity.
"So she missed you taking you're first step and you're first words she missed you becoming a man correct?"
"Yes I guess." Ranma looked down the guilt was starting to get to her
"I think Ranma that you're mother is just trying to see you grow up again she missed you're entire childhood and just wants to teach her only child, I think that if my mother was still around I would let her teach me to be a suitable woman even though I wouldn't like it she is my mother, and in you're case you're mother, Nodoka I believe has acknowledged you as a 'man amongst men' do you know how heart breaking that must be to somebody to only see their child as a baby then turn into a man and not getting to see any thing in between. She is just trying to fill the emptiness in her life. And though I don't agree with her methods I think she just wants to spend time with you." Herb closed his eyes "I sometimes think of what my mom was like."
Herb pulled out the unlocking kettle and placed it on the table "You can have this if you truly think that you're mother is just doing this because she is 'insane' I won't stop you." Herbs eyes trailed off in the distance.
The longest period passed without a sound from either one of them, the silence was finally broken by Ranma.
"I'll be back for this." Ranma walked over to Herb and stood shoulder to shoulder, "When the time is right, I'll be back…" And as quickly as Ranma came to the village she was gone.
Nodoka's eyes were red from the tears as she lay asleep at Genma's lap, who was gently stroking her hair and staring at her lovingly.
In the other room Akane and Kasumi both sat together pondering the recent events that have conspired.
"Why would Ranma say that to his mother Kasumi?"
"Akane you don't remember much of your own mother do you?"
"No" Akane responded wearily
"You use to say you hated her every time you got upset, then you would storm into you're room and barricade you're self with stuffed animals."
"Really?" Akane looked at Kasumi with a look of shock she would never imagine doing that to her mother.
"Yes, it is natural for a child to say but they don't mean it they may hate you at the moment but they will still say I love you in the morning."
"But Ranma is 17 he should now better."
"No I don't think he does, Ranma has never had a chance to bond with his mother and under the circumstances a very negative bond was forming Ranma just had a tantrum give her time and she will turn around."
"But but…"
Kasumi pressed her fingers against Akane's lips "No buts Akane, Ranma will come home when she is ready, where ever she is. Go to bed and you'll fell better in the morning I promise."
The sun rose early to greet the day as the rays of light tickled Nodoka's nose she awoke to see Genma asleep next to her still caressing her hair. She heard the door open from down stairs, and realized that it must be her son. She ran down the stairs as fast as she could stumbling and tripping over her own kimono, still wiping tears from the previous night away but proved unsuccessful for new ones just appeared in their place.
Finally reaching the bottom of the stairs she saw Ranma gently closing the door behind her, her face was red and it was evident that she ran to get here.
"Ranma!" Nodoka yelled in a sad voice, she rushed over and hugged her Son "I'm sorry Ranma I'm so sorry" tears began to stain Ranma's shirt "I'm a horrible mother, I'm so sorry." Nodoka stayed on her knee's gripping tighter around Ranma. "You can be a man again just promise to stay my son."
Ranma gently laid her hands on her mothers shoulders. "No I'm sorry we will finish this, together. I will be proud be you're daughter no matter how much I dislike it."
Nodoka wiped the tear's from her eyes "Really? Are you sure? I can't be any easier on you and I don't want to lose you again."
Ranma smiled "I know."
Akane began to come down the stairs for her morning jog.
"Like I said, we will finish this together."
