Chapter 6
Ryouga's hunger soon screams out its displeasure. "GRAAAAAARGHHH!" Ryouga being very well aware of the starvation threatening. Therefore his response at seeing the gargantuan table of food should have brought upon Ranmaesque bahaviour.
It didn't. Ryouga stopped in midair upon seeing the maker of all things beautiful. The girl who had cleaned him up was there. 'The ONE!' Safe to say the hidden chivalrous nature took over and Ryouga had to be polite.
"Thank you m-mi-miss?" He had seen this one a gaijin movie before. 'JamesBond something.' Looking as suave as only Ryouga can muster. He bowed. "My na-name is Hibiki, RYOUGA HIBBBICKI!" Ryouga flushed from the exertion rested his head on the floor having exerted himself to much.
For Ranko very few things can bring her to facefault. This brought her closer to that limit than she had been for more than five years. "Ryouga-san I have no intentions of bringing you harm. To ensure that our proceedings remain relatively neutral I implore you to restrain yourself."
Ryouga being very much a onetrack mind had to strain to gather the full intent of all the verbal cues of the message. After having read the losers guide to getting a date this was something he would eventually excel in. Calming himself notably he once more stood straight. "I am sorry miss. I will respect your wishes."
Ranko couldn't believe her ears. 'Ryouga is showing restraint and tact around a female!' A slight creasing on her forehead alerted no one of her predicament however. "Ryouga how come you aren't surprised with me knowing your name?" Some questions must be asked.
'Ouch she's being more perceptive than normal! How to fix this?' Ryouga being the kind of person that wears his emotions on his sleeve plain for all to see grumbled indiscriminately. "Uh… Oh its like this I travel a lot and sometimes I , actually quit often I meet the same person twice. Therefore I am used to having faces knowing of me before me recognizing them. So maybe we met before?" Ryouga was smiling for all he was worth showing of his fangs…
If Ranko would have been anything less than what she was would most likely bolted at the sight of two smilodon like thingies poking out parallell to each other… 'He gave me a way out of this cool!' From Nodoka's school 101 on how to approach those of the male gender. Mature eye set… "I'm Ranko now that we know each other. Would you like to spar with me?" Imperceptibly shifting her hands to tap the carpal tunnel subtly altering the contentflow from mere touch top inflaming one…
Ryouga doesn't really know why he's smiling like a fool…
Ranko had become the kind of person that always thought that the end justifies the means. This made the kind of endevour that she had to put forth not that much of an obstacle to her at all. (AN: the authour is once more found crying in a corner…)
Kasumi had not had any kind of burlesque humour gong around in her psyche until that very moment Genma chose. The fact that Ranma displayed an unseemingly cute contrast to his normal behaviour had triggered the accepting mindset needed to cope with the shift in perception. If she had retained even a fraction of her normal mental faculties she would have been screaming at the sudden interruption in her playtime. "Oh my!"
Akane was not ready for the visual input given her already frail mind. "AAAAAAAAAAH!"
Kasumi could but blink.
"PERVERT!" The mallet was shimmering into reality somewhat larger than normal too. Infact pervert basher MkII regulations had been dropped as a titanium enforced lining sparkled in the humid environment. "DIE!"
SCHWEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPP!
Saucerplatesized eyes adorned the two Tendo sisters at the moment. Ranma was idly licking his knuckles completely at ease not really aware. Akane chose to walk away quietly knowing when suicide is not applicable as it is not enough.
Kasumi finally awakened from her induced state of perverted yet innocent playfulness gently eases herself out of the furo whilst patting Ranma on the head. "Stay kittie." Kasumi was twitching inwardly holding off the feeling of doom she couldn't place. 'Maybe I should go shopping… Yes that's it!' Kasumi made herself scarce…
Ranma feeling clean enough eased his way out of the tub and moved out into the hall way. This time he missed the six feet statue coming at him from a distance.
TWOCK!
Sleep!
The new arrangements were like this after Genma not being present. Kasumi being conspiciously absent at the family meeting did not affect the outcome. Akane wanted to maul Ranma yet was to afraid to do so. Nabiki extremely frustrated wanted to do so as well still unaware of the cursed nature of young Saotome. Soun somewhat relieved and somewhat worried did what only he could do. "Kasumi is to be Ranma's fianceé!"
Akane felt elated yet at the sametime mortified. Not knowing what to do she poundedon the inert body of Saotome on the floor missing and getting even more upset. 'What happened to that nice Ranko girl!'
Nabiki running off made Soun worry for the worst. 'Where's Genma he's the only one you can trust?' This time the crying was confused.
Nodoka awoke to the sound of fighting. Knowing that Ranko was perfectly invulnerable most of the time did its part in comforting her yet she chose to take a peek on her daughter's performance none the less. 'Maybe she's got a boy with her!' Gushing at the prospect of such things as grand children. She ran off.
Ryouga rarely took a beating being a completely above 99,9999 above the rest in terms of martial ability fighter. However this time he looked more like a loser than anything else. Wincing at the pain he squatted defeated and mortified.
In a normal sane being this should have provoked feelings of utter dread…
'She's the most perfect being I have ever met!' Ryouga's eyes unvoluntarily teared up…
Ranko gauging her opponents skills totally missed this visual cue however. A ki blade entered the forehead of Hibiki yet did not inflict mortal damage. Not even permanent such. "Do you yield?"
(AN: this looks like how the Incognito being is impaled in Hellsing episode thirteen.)
Certain events take place that hint at destiny being a flirt. This was one of them. The few synapses actually cut by the blade refused permanently etching an image into the head and this time only, soul of young Hibiki. "I pledge my soul and eternal servitude to you my queen eternal."
To say that Ranko freaked out would be understating the actual turmoil taking place within her. 'No…' The ki blade evaporated having no supporting soul binding. "Please…"
With no blade holding him into the position Ryouga kneeled head down. "My queen."
Fainting galore!
Post event-------------------
Nodoka being extremely efficient had already set up the whole deal as a marriage proposal between the two families.
Ryouga still solemn and in a hunched position holds the hibernating Ranko in his hands. 'I wish I could guard oyur sleep…'
For Ranma events take place in the canon manner with Nabiki being even more torn than normal. Meaning Akane is named as Ranma's fianceé and Kuno gets another beating…
Soun finally found Genma. He had been lying in the master's old room. Ironing female underwear... Soun did wisely refrain from remarking on the weirdness of Genma's behaviour and chose instead to offer sake in celebration of Kasumi's pending wedding. He was quite surprised when Genma dropped to the floor unconscious after hearing of his son being manly in the buff with Kasumi.
(AN: I hope there are still people reading this fic. As I get very few reviews... However if you would come out with critique I most certainly will alter the fic accordingly, okay.)
(This is the real chapter 6 for you doubters out there!)
(The only real pairing is the one between Genma and Kasumi! Even though I set things up for madness to come. Ryouga is awakened if you can't guess that already. If you can the crossover element present in this chapter name your wish and I shall do my best to accomodate you!)
