Author's—(is pushed aside by Ryoga)

Ryoga: Where on earth am I now?

PrincessRose: Gasp! Ryoga wandered into the author's notes!

Ryoga: Hey…what am I doing down there?

AngelicDemnX: Uh…erm…what do you mean? (cough)

Ryoga: I see it right there! "I'm not marrying you!" I better not be talking to Akane!

AngelicDemnX: QUIET! OUR WORD IS LAW!

Shakespeare: Run while you can, boy!

DON'T GO PICKEN' NO FIGHTS

"I'm not marrying you!" Ryoga yelled. He was inside a bridal shop, wearing a traditional Japanese wedding ceremony outfit, and he was tied to the clothes rack so he couldn't escape.

"Oh, but you look so good!" Shampoo complimented him. "What you think of this dress?" She held it up in front of herself to show him.

"You gotta help me!" Ryoga yelled at two other shoppers, who ran away.

Just then he saw Akane, Ranma, Ukyo, that fairy, and Happosai and Cologne (hand in hand) run by the shop window. "AKANE! Help me!" He shouted.

But about a second later he realizes what all this must look like. Oh no...if she sees me like this...what will she think of me?

RYOGA'S VISION OF WHAT AKANE WOULD SAY

"Oh Ryoga! How could you toy with her heart like that? I simply cannot respect you as a man! I am sorry...but we will never meet again." Akane ran away crying.

"NOOOOO!" Ryoga called.

IN THE REAL WORLD

Akane stopped running. "Hm? Did someone call my name?" She looked around.

Then Ranma noticed Ryoga and Shampoo inside the bridal shop. "Hey, there's Ryoga and Shampoo! He's pickin' out a tux!" Everyone looked inside. Ryoga's face suddenly resembled a statue.

"Who's he in love with again?" Ranma asked.

"Me, I think." Ukyo said.

"Uh...I can't remember!" Puck said franticly.

"Stupid pixie." Ranma scoffed.

"Well, we can't let them get married." Akane said.

"Why not? We'll get them both out of our hair!"

"What are you talking about? Ryoga's my friend! I can't let him marry Shampoo!" Akane yelled at Ranma.

"Fine! If you love him so much, then you can save him and get Pixie boy here to use the flower on both of you!" Ranma yelled back.

"I'm a fairy! And you destroyed my flower!" Puck said grudgingly.

"I thought you said you could grow another one." Ukyo said.

"Oh, that'll take a few days." He answered.

"Come to think of it...what time is it?" Akane asked, distracted from her squabble with Ranma.

"About 12:45, at night!" Happosai said happily. "We're at the 24 hour bridal shop!"

"Time passes by so quickly when you're in love!" Cologne giggled happily.

"Cologne, aren't you just the least bit concerned about Shampoo anymore?" Akane asked.

"Shampoo who? I don't need to wash my hair now."

"You know, your great granddaughter?" Akane yelled, exasperated.

"Oh, silly girl! I realize now the error of my ways. If she is truly in love with him, who am I to get in the way of their happiness?"

"It's the flower and you know it." Ukyo said angrily.

Ranma was still fuming. "Alright already! Let's just get Ryoga and get out of here!"

SEVERAL MINUTES LATER

"What you think of this one?" Shampoo asked Ryoga as she held up the fortieth dress.

"May I help you?" A store worker walked up, or should I say Ranma in girl form wearing a store worker uniform and a pair of glasses walked up.

"Help me!" Ryoga yelled, completely fooled.

"You seem familiar." Shampoo said and she took a closer look at Ranma. "But Shampoo too blinded by love to care!" She concluded.

Ranma let out her breath "Phew! I mean…It is my job to make sure you have the best wedding possible!"

"It must be the best!" Shampoo giggled.

"Here." Ranma pulled a big stack of dresses off the rack. "You must try on five hundred different wedding dresses; it's this store's tradition!" She handed them to her.

"Aiya! So many dresses!"

"But you must make sure the groom doesn't see them before the wedding day! It's bad luck!" Ranma continued.

"Is right!" Shampoo turned around and smacked Ryoga. "Don't look!" Then she pranced away to the dressing rooms. "Hee hee! Is so much fun being a bride!" When she had gone Ranma went up and began to untie Ryoga.

"Thank you for helping me, kind worker!" Ryoga said.

"It's me you dolt." Ranma took off her glasses.

"Ranma? What are you doing in a bridal shop?"

"Saving you! Now let's go!" Ranma had finished untying him.

"Right!" Ryoga took off running…away from the front door.

"You are completely hopeless!" Ranma grabbed Ryoga's arm and pulled him to the exit.

But Kuno happened to be walking down the street at that moment and he saw Ryoga and the Pigtailed Girl walking out of a bridal shop hand in hand.

"No! Not the Pigtailed Girl too! You lecher!" Kuno swung his sword at Ryoga.

"What the-! You can have her!" Ryoga threw Ranma at him.

"Thanks a lot!" Ranma yelled angrily back at him. Kuno caught her and hugged her. "Oh! I have found you Pigtailed Girl!" Ranma kicked him away.

He landed not too far from Akane and the others. "What? Kuno?" Akane said, surprised.

Kuno looked around and happened to notice Cologne. "Oh my...I...I had forgotten her wonderful face! Oh my beautiful turtle dove!" He jumped forward to hug her.

"Oh Happy! Protect me!" Cologne yelled like a damsel in distress.

"I will not allow you to touch her! Happo-Fire Burst!" A firework went off and Happosai and Kuno were now locked in combat.

Cologne looked at Akane and Ukyo, smirking. "Looks like I'm the center of attention now!"

"Do you think we want to be?" Akane asked.

Just then Mousse popped up. "Ah ha! My Red Haired Beauty!" He grabbed Ranma in a tight hug.

"Not you again!" Ranma punched him away.

"Akane!" Ryoga ran up to her.

"Ryoga?"

"It...It's all just a big misunderstanding!" He said franticly, blushing.

"What are you talking about?"

Ukyo watched all this. "Hey! You're cured! You're in love with-"

"No one! That is correct! Yeah, that weird pixie thing did it to me." Ryoga said quickly.

"Hey…" Ukyo looked around. "Where'd the pixie go?"

"I'M A FAIRY!" Puck yelled from the rooftop across the street. Ranma jumped after him. "Curses!" Puck flew away as quickly as possible.

"Dammit Puck! Get over here!" Ranma yelled as she chased after him.

"Nyahh nyahh! Never! You were mean to me! I'll leave you all cursed forever!"

"I'll catch you if it's the last thing I do, you gnat!"

Mousse jumped up after Ranma. "I do not know what is so important about catching this pixie...but I will help you if it makes you happy!" He waved his arm and a piece of flypaper flew out of his sleeve and hit Puck, trapping him.

"He could have done that in the beginning?" Akane said, aghast.
