"You don't have to wait long to tell me, Akane." Ranma said, stepping out of the shadows of the back alley.
"Ranma!" All three jumped, shocked that he'd been snooping around, eavesdropping.

"Well, I officially give up on, you too, Akane!" He then turned and stormed off.
Akane blinked. "Uhh.. ok then.." She turned back to the others. "Shall we?" And she toward the upstairs apartment, grinning.
"You go on ahead," Shampoo said, "I have to go do something."
"You ok Sugar?" Ukyo looked at her with concern, it wasn't like Shampoo not to gung-ho about playing. Shampoo nodded. Still casting the Amazon worried looks, Akane and Ukyo joined hands, then headed up to Shampoo's room to await her.
Shampoo watched them go, grinning mischievously to herself. She couldn't believe how well her plan worked. Now after months of waiting she could finally go and nab Ranma for herself! So, cackling like a banshee and completely disregarding the point of the story, Shampoo pranced off after Ranma.
The End.
