Disclaimer: I do not own Ranma ½, or anything else you may recognize. Not a dime is being made of this story and is for entertainment purposes only. Enjoy!

A/N: I just realized, with how much I'm jumping around there are going to be some things missing from the last chapter that I wanted put in. I'll have to do a flashback in this chapter of Ranma meeting Sasami cause we're taking a time jump forward here.

This'd be a lot easier if I could find scanlations or a torrent with all of the Tenchi Muyo! mangas. So damned difficult finding correct information, argh!

Chapter 11

Tendo Dojo, 6 months later

"Akane, I'm back," Ryoga yelled excitedly as he stumbled through the hallway.

"Ryoga, where have you been," Akane asked angrily.

"I got lost," he replied defensively before adding something to take her mind off of that, "I saw Ranma."

"What was that pervert doing," Akane asked angrily. She still hadn't forgiven him for embarrassing her.

"He was living in Okayama at a Shinto Shrine," Ryoga replied.

"Are you sure it was Okayama," Nabiki asked overhearing the conversation.

"Of course I'm sure," Ryoga told her defensively, "Why wouldn't I be?"

"Well Ryoga-kun, being lost implies you don't know where you are," Kasumi commented joining the conversation as she walked out of the kitchen.

"Nevermind them, why were you gone so long," Akane asked while gathering him up in a hug, causing Ryoga's rising anger and depression to deflate rather quickly.

"After Ranma cheated somehow and knocked me out I woke up in some kind of lab. There was some kind of redheaded midget running experiments on me for…I don't even remember how many days. When I finally got free I ran as fast as I could and made my way back here," Ryoga explained with haunted eyes trying to erase the memories of what Washu did to him from his mind.

"Sure Ryoga," Nabiki told him skeptically.

"It's true, she even cured my sense of direction!"

"If she cured your sense of direction then how long did it take you to get back here," Nabiki asked sarcastically. While waiting for her answer, and Akane acting as a leech on Ryoga, Kasumi left to answer the door due to the knocks that she had just heard coming from the front door.

"A week. Once I realized it I bought a map and a compass and made my way here as fast as I could," Ryoga explained before fishing the aforementioned items out of his pack as proof.

"Do you know the name of the shrine he was at in Okayama," Nabiki asked. If anything, if he got the city wrong she could track down the shrine.

"Masaki Shrine," a voice answered from behind the couple. When Nabiki looked up she saw Ranma standing next to Kasumi with a few other people behind him. "Only reason I let her keep ya in there so long Pig Boy was ta cure your sense of direction, and that alone took Washu-chan three months."

"PERVERT! What are you doing here," Akane yelled as she saw the multiple women behind Ranma. She and Nabiki were a little daunted by them, one with deep purple hair had a regal bearing that trounced even Kodachi's attitude, the cyan haired woman looked like a hunter in search of specific prey, a hunter you didn't want on your trail, the redheaded 'midget' that Ryoga was talking about that must've been called Washu was next with a gleam in her eyes that unsettled everyone in the room and caused Genma to grab the nearest glass of water when he entered the room, and finally a girl that looked about 14 or 15 with light blue hair and completely decimated any other girls beauty while radiating an aura of peace equal that of Kasumi. There was a boy around Ranma's age standing in-between the first two women, a long with an older gentlemen picking up the rear.

"Why must I have such a disrespectful child that he ran away," Genma wailed as best he could with his signs.

"You aren't my father Genma, give it up," Ranma deadpanned causing the panda to look at Ranma angrily.

"I know who my real father is, and congrats, you're not as much of a bastard as he is. At least you never tried to outright kill me," Ranma quipped sarcastically.

"Ranma, what are you doing here," Soun asked indifferently.

"I'm here to do two things I should have done from the beginning. Soun Tendo, you are here by banned from practicing Anything Goes Martial Arts. I am revoking your teaching license permanently and unless you become a teacher with another art you will have to close your dojo," Ranma demanded.

"What gives you the right to do that," Akane demanded angrily.

"The same right that allowed me to do it 9 months ago to you, but you didn't seem to listen to me. I am the Grandmaster of Anything Goes Martial Arts, and I have control who teaches our school and who can practice it," Ranma retorted. "You should be proud, it's your fault that he lost his ability. He was given probation when I left before, but because you didn't listen to me and continued to use the Art you have brought dishonor on not only yourself but your family. When your father didn't step in and stop you from practicing Anything Goes he sealed his own fate."

"How do you know she practiced," Nabiki asked curiously, "And when did you learn to talk so well?"

"That's easy, when Ryoga comes around blaming me for Akane getting hurt due to Dojo Destroyers it's pretty obvious that she's the one defending the dojo instead of him, your father, or Genma," Ranma explained as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. This little tidbit cause a Ryoga pancake to be made in the room as Akane became angry at Ryoga for spilling the beans to Ranma. "Oh, and my speech was helped along by people who actually gave a damn. They realized that I did have a mind I just hadn't had a chance to use it so they tutored me and helped me break some of my worse habits."

"RYOGA NO BAKA!"

"Now how is it his fault that you went against the Grandmaster of the school," Ranma asked as if he were talking to a child. This enrages Akane to the point she leaps at Ranma only to be knocked out mid-flight by Ryoko.

"You were right kid, she has a worse temper than either me or Ayeka," Ryoko commented in awe.

"YOU HURT MY BABY," Soun screamed using his demon head before leaping at Ranma. I'm sensing a pattern here, how about you? Before he could even cover half the distance he found his face implanted on a shield that had sprung up between him and the group. Of course a certain panda wasn't going to let that go and had used the Umi Sen Ken to get closer to Ranma in hopes of forcing him to forget this nonsense and go back to pretending to being his son. Of course, the bokken strike to the back of head made him decide a nap would be better.

"Why don't we sit down and discuss this like rational adults," Tenchi suggested.

"Oh my, I can't believe I forgot, would anyone like some tea," Kasumi asked as she bustled towards the kitchen to begin making the tea she was sure people would want. It was more so she could figure out how to properly apologize to Ranma than anything else, but a good hostess doesn't neglect her duties either.

"Once everyone stops hiding and comes inside I'll introduce everyone," Ranma called out towards the door leading to the backyard causing Cologne to hop in on her cane followed by Shampoo, and Nodoka walked in from the living room. "Now that everyone is here I'll make introductions. I'll start with those I came with, the older gentleman you see is Katsuhito Masaki, my kenjutsu instructor. To his left is his grandson Tenchi, who is my sparring partner. The two woman hanging off of Tenchi are Ayeka Misaki Jurai, the regal one, and Ryoko Hakubi, the buxom one. The little redhead seated on my left is Washu-chan, the greatest scientific mind you will find ever. Just don't do anything to piss her off or you'll find yourself in her lab. And last, but certainly not least, is Sasami Misaki Jurai. She was the original reason I began staying with the Masaki's as I was to protect her and she's become a very good friend of mine."

"It is a pleasure to meet you all," Kasumi commented as she set out the tea and began serving everyone, much to the joy of everyone present. It helped break some of the tension that had been building.

"Although most of you will be able to guess who they are I'll go ahead with the introductions anyway. The woman who just served us is Kasumi, bonified slave and daughter of Soun Tendo. Soun would be that weeping wreck that knocked himself out on Ayeka's shield earlier. To Kasumi's left is Nabiki Tendo, certified mercenary and bread winner of the Tendo home. Without her the family probably would have been on the streets a long time ago."

"Got that right Saotome," Nabiki retorted sharply. She didn't like Ranma's comments about her family so far, especially that slave comment about Kasumi.

"I'm not a Saotome," Ranma told her coldly before continuing as if it didn't happen, "And the youngest of the Tendo sisters is Akane, she's the one that Ryoko knocked out earlier. I believe Kasumi once described her as a sweet girl, but somewhat a violent maniac. Something like that anyway. The person that looks like a shriveled monkey on a stick is actually Elder Cologne of the Chinese Amazons. She's one of the best martial artists you'll find, and is around 300 years old. Next to her is her great-granddaughter Shampoo who was the village champion a few years ago. I believe they're still under the opinion that I'm Shampoo's husband."

"Of course you are Son-in-Law. A change in name means nothing to the Amazons," Cologne pointed out crossly. She didn't like the shriveled monkey joke, but the older man sitting near Ranma made her nervous. She felt like she knew him and just couldn't place it yet, but she would eventually.

"We'll just see what the Emperor of Jurai and Tsunami have to say about that," Ranma commented lightly while thinking back to when he met Tsunami.

Flashback

"Ranma, there's something I need to tell you," Sasami began, looking more nervous than Ranma in a room full of kittens.

"Whatcha need Sasami," Ranma asked in concern.

"Can we talk somewhere private, there's something I need to tell you," She asked with a slight twitch as she attempted to get her nervousness under control.

"Of course Sasami-chan, just lead the way," he told her with a warm smile in the hopes of easing her worries. A lot of talks with Misaki, Funaho, and lately Washu had enlightened him as to how to better deal with situations like this. Sasami lead him to the base of Funaho-oh as it was the most likely place that they would have an extended period of privacy around the house. Ayeka and Ryoko still didn't completely trust Ranma around Sasami alone yet. Unless they had Tenchi to distract them they would do everything to make sure that there was at least someone around whenever the two were in the same vicinity. "Now, what is it you wanted to tell me?"

"Well, you see, it's like this," Sasami went on to explain what happened to her as a child on Jurai, and Tsunami resurrecting her as an avatar until she grew old enough for Tsunami to take over the body. She still didn't want to believe that she was the same Sasami, and that when the assimilation was complete that they would share the body instead of Tsunami just taking what was hers.

"Wow, if that's the case ya don't really need protection then do ya? But it don't matter much cause you're still you right? It ain't like ya been lyin' to me about who you are," Ranma told her with a caring smile making Sasami feel much more at ease.

"Thank you Ranma," she replied before giving him a big hug, "There's one other thing. Tsunami wants to meet you, that's why we needed the privacy. Everyone in the family already knows about Tsunami, but only Tenchi, Katsuhito, and Washu have talked to her."

"Well, I guess we could do that, but what do I need ta do," Ranma asked.

"Lie down with your head on my lap," she coached. While that wasn't technically needed, it was true that it would work better through touch, though holding hands would work. Ranma still hadn't learned that Sasami was one of the more devious people in the house hiding behind her innocent façade. (If you don't believe it watch the OVA's! I swear she's a trickster!)

"Um, alright," he replied nervously before complying with stiff movements. He still wasn't completely comfortable with physical contact, but he was getting better. All those damn hugs that Misaki gave him and now Sasami was giving him were helping with that. Within a minute of laying down his head he felt as if he was being pulled out of his body. The sensation only lasted for a fraction of a second before it ended and he saw a scene similar to Azusa's ship, only much more elaborate.

"Hello Ranma-kun," a gorgeous looking woman with light-blue hair said from behind him. Ranma took a moment to pick up his jaw before bowing low in greeting.

"H-hello Tsunami-sama," he replied feeling for the first time in his life that he should show the utmost respect without the person needing to do anything to earn it.

"No need to be nervous Ranma, I've been looking forward to meeting you since Kaikou told me about you," Tsunami told him with a smile as she walked towards him. It was then that Ranma noted that not only was he disconnected from his body, but he was in his Juraian armor, something he hadn't done since he had gotten it.

"Ah, whatcha need Tsunami-sama," Ranma asked after calming himself down.

"First why don't you tell me about yourself, I'm sure Sasami explained our relationship, I'll explain it further and what it will mean in the future once you're done," Tsunami suggested to which Ranma nodded. After 30 minutes, and a highly condensed version of his life story Ranma got to the point where he arrived at the Masaki home.

"So Azusa asked me ta be a kinda bodyguard/fiancé to Sasami. I think he woulda chucked out the fiancé bit, but Misaki wasn't gonna let him," Ranma told her with a wry grin.

"So that's how it is, Sasami explained the protector part, and that you are a friend of hers, but she never mentioned being betrothed," Tsunami replied with a smirk.

"Ah, well, we kinda agreed ta just be friends for now. Seein' as how she's so young an all, it jus' wouldn't be right for me ta look at her like a fiancée so, um, yeah," Ranma finished lamely causing Tsunami to giggle cutely.

"That's sweet," she told him, "What about when she's older? She'll still be Sasami, when the assimilation is complete we'll just share her body. She will be me, her memories and personality will be left intact."

"I was wonderin' about that, she made it sound like ya just used her ta make a new body for yourself," Ranma asked confused.

"No, when she fell in the nursery she was still alive, if only barely, I bonded with her to preserve her life. No matter what she will not believe it at this point, not to say I haven't tried, but someday she will know the truth," Tsunami explained.

"So it'll be both of ya in the same body?"

"Yes, we will become one person," Tsunami replied trying to make it sound less like possession before blushing and restating her question from earlier, "You never did answer my question, would you feel better about his engagement if Sasami were older?"

"You feelin' okay? You're turnin' red," Ranma asked as he put his hand to her forehead to check her temperature causing the immortal being Tsunami to blush as red as a tomato. This wasn't something she was going to forget anytime soon. She quickly nodded to indicate she was feeling fine and that he should answer the question. "Well, I guess it all kinda depends on how we both feel. I just got myself outta that engagement mess in Nerima, and I still gotta find ways ta deal with the Amazons, but after she grows up I'd probably be more open ta the idea."

"You're not the first Juraian to have to deal with those Amazons," Tsunami practically growled, "The next time you talk to the Matriarch invoke the Emperor and my name, that should shut her up."

"Why would it do that," Ranma asked.

"300 years ago the Amazons controlled twice as much space, before half of it was reduced to rubble as a warning," Tsunami replied with a glint in her eyes.

"But I thought Azusa didn't know where Yosho was until now," Ranma asked.

"He didn't, but I did. I've been helping Yosho hide here since his defeat of Ryoko because I knew that Jurai would fall under his rule. He wouldn't rule it with all his heart and the people would have hated him because of his heritage. They're much more open and accepting now then they were back then fortunately, but Jurai would have fallen had Yosho taken the seat of Emperor," Tsunami explained solemnly before getting that glint in her eyes again that made him wary, "280 years ago he ran across that Amazon village. They didn't want to take no for an answer, no matter how many Elders he beat they were not going to let him go, so he asked for a favor and when they were returning from a war party I decimated the empty half of the village." Ranma could only whistle appreciatively in response to that.

"I could probably take 'em out, but ta do it would kill a fair few of 'em and that ain't something I wanna do," Ranma commented.

"That's what makes you so special," she told him with a smile.

End flashback

"That is not a name to invoke lightly Son-in-Law," Cologne threatened.

"He can have done exactly what I did Cologne," Katsuhito/Yosho threatened coldly surprising everyone in the room.

"So it is you Yosho," Cologne replied sourly. She was still put out over the fact that she lost her Airen because he had friends that could rain fire down from the sky quickly enough to vaporize half the village within a minute. She now assumed, based on their auras, that it was a spaceship that did it, but that didn't change anything. "I never thought you the type of coward to hide behind others Ranma."

"Who says it's cowardly? I've tried everything to get out of the false engagement that you continuously attempt to trap me in. What you've been doing amounts to nothing more than many counts of attempted rape," Ranma told her coldly. This accusation didn't sit well with Cologne as rape charges were always dealt with severely in the village. Well, when it was a woman claiming rape. The man accused was usually killed almost instantly. Women were never accused of rape because according to their laws they couldn't be, but according to Japanese law they could be. "This appears to be the only way to get through to you that I won't marry Shampoo, if it takes wiping your village off the map then that's what it'll take. I'm sure the Musk would be more than glad to take the survivors in."

"Come Shampoo, it is obvious that spending any more time in Japan would be a futile effort," Cologne ordered before hopping away on her cane. Shampoo sent one last pleading look at Ranma before following her great-grandmother.

"Was that really necessary Ranma," Nodoka asked. She felt some pity for the young girl, although she couldn't rightly tell why.

"AHA, I knew it," Washu exclaimed making everyone in the room jump a little bit and turn to face her.

"Knew what Washu-chan," Ranma asked the question on everyone's mind.

"Never mind me, I'll explain in a bit," Washu replied with a gleam in her eyes that made the tension skyrocket but nobody wanted to disagree with her. Before anyone else could say something Kasumi moved and prostrated herself before Ranma.

"Ranma-san, please, I beg of you, forgive me for how I treated you," Kasumi asked with tears streaming down her face onto the floor.

"Ah, forget about it Kasumi, I'm not mad at you anymore. I could never hold a grudge," Ranma told her while helping her sit up.

"Boy, you've been added to the Saotome register, now hurry up and marry a Tendo daughter," Genma yelled as he was now awake. He had added Ranma shortly after Ranma left when he realized he had forgotten to do it. Now that that mistake was taken care of he could control the boy once again.

"I'm sorry, but I don't think you're able to do that," Ranma told him condescendingly. "Not only was I already added to my Mother's register, I have a fiancée that was not forced on me. We only have to wait to marry until she hits the age of majority," Ranma lied. Technically Sasami would've been way past the age of majority, but it couldn't be proven as she looked like she was 14 or 15. That in itself was a change from six months ago when she looked about 10 so he suspected Tsunami and Sasami were speeding up the assimilation for some reason.

"What are you talking about boy, I found you fair and square," Genma yelled stupidly making everyone in the room glare at him, including Soun who was now awake.

"Did you find your parents Ranma," Nabiki asked curiously, hoping it was something she could make money off of.

"Yep, my father was a bigger bastard than Genma, but I'm still looking for my mother. I have her name, but I'm not sure how much it'll help me," Ranma told her.

"I might help you look, it'll cost you though, what's her name," Nabiki asked with yen signs in her eyes.

"Yukishiro Kaoru," those two words made Nodoka gasp in shock. Everyone turned to look at her curiously as her face paled and she started shaking uncontrollably.

"What's wrong Auntie," Kasumi asked out of sheer politeness.

"Wh-where did you hear that name," Nodoka asked in shock.

"From Azusa, Yosho's father, he learned that my father tried killing her but she received treatment and left. She changed her name somewhere along the way so I can't be sure what her name is now," Ranma explained with a suspicious gleam in his eyes.

"AHEM," Washu coughed to get everyone's attention. Once she was sure she had it she decided to spill the beans about what she discovered earlier. "Ranma, I would like to introduce you to your mother, Yukishiro Kaoru."

"WHAT?" Everyone in the room, except Yosho and Washu, yelled in shock.

"Wait, wait, if she's Ranma's mother, then why does she seem so surprised," Nabiki asked.

"The trauma from the incident caused a type of amnesia. It wasn't certain whether or not she would regain her memories or not, but she set out for here because she felt that if she was going to find answers it would be here," Yosho answered.

"S-son," Nodoka asked in shock. Ranma just nodded his head sadly. As much as he wanted to find his mother Nodoka wasn't the mother he wanted, but he wasn't going to be picky. Hopefully they could restore her memories and she wouldn't be so…loopy. Before he could even register the movement he had an Amazon class glomper on him in the form of his mother. Nobody moved for the next few minutes to give mother and son a moment to themselves. When Nodoka calmed herself down Genma had found himself against a wall with the Saotome honor blade imbedded in the floor a scant millimeter from castrating him.

"What are you doing No-chan," Genma protested.

"Don't call me No-chan," Nodoka/Kaoru growled, "For 18 years you have blackmailed me into being your wife with the knowledge I wasn't from Earth, well not anymore. You can take your knowledge and shove it for all I care! I found what I came for and as soon as I can I'm divorcing you!"

"You can't! I own you," Genma screeched before finding seven red auras in front of him and what looked like a red pillar behind them. He could guess what it was. The seven auras were all the women in the house, except Akane who was still unconscious, and the pillar behind them was Ranma. He was in deep and he knew it. Time for a time tested technique…now he just had to grab the water.

I'm just a cute panda Flip Don't hurt me

"Has that ever worked," Yosho asked incredulously as everyone in the room bust out into laughter that he would even try something so stupid.

"Not a once," Ranma replied before turning to Washu, "Waaashuuuu-chaaan?"

"Yes Ranma," Washu asked warily. She didn't like the tone of his voice. It never turned out good for her. The last time he did that she had to spend three months working on that idiot Ryoga just to cure his directional problem while trying to find the trigger for the Jusenkyo curse. She still hadn't managed the latter, but she did cure him of his water magnet problem.

"Is there any chance you can find the recipe for and make some Chinese herbal shampoo? Formula 911 specifically," Ranma asked with puppy dog eyes. This look made Washu roll her eyes at it's pathetic-ness, but she agreed. She'd actually assumed he'd ask for it once she'd heard about his mother. After hearing his stories about Nerima and the memory incident that Akane girl went through it was the thing Ranma'd do.

"Here ya go, I had some made up already," Washu said with a gin. Ranma beamed at her, grabbed the bottle, and grabbed Nodoka's hand before dragging her into the bathroom to try it. Washu followed along as she had her own item to help. It was a side project she'd had running a few years ago to stimulate memory recovery and it only took her a few days to finish it up once she got a few days of peace and quiet. Several minutes later everyone in the house heard Nodoka screaming, "WAAAAH, I have my baby boy back!"

"I guess it worked," Nabiki commented surprised. Not much went off without a hitch where Ranma was concerned and today went surprisingly easy for him.

"Owie, what happened," Akane asked as she regained consciousness.

"You did something incredibly stupid," Nabiki commented before helping her sister up. Akane looked around as her brain rebooted and recalling the last things she remembered.

"WHERE IS THAT PERVERT," Akane screamed.

"He's being reunited with his mother," Kasumi answered, "You will not interfere with them."

"K-Kasumi? What has that pervert done to you," Akane asked. The only way her sweet older sister would threaten her, even if it was a veiled threat, was if that pervert Ranma had done something to her.

"He has done nothing but forgive me for how I treated him when he lived her," Kasumi told her sister flatly shocking all the Tendos and Genma.

"Why did you need that perverts forgiveness," Akane demanded.

"I'd think you need it more than anyone," Ayeka commented snidely.

"What is that supposed to mean," Akane screeched.

"Unprovoked attacks, assault, infidelity, attempted murder through poison, torture," Ryoko listed, "Would you like me to continue? I can think of a few more things you've done to Ranma."

"He deserved all those attacks for cheating on me, and when did I poison or torture him," Akane yelled.

"So if, what's his name, Mousse I think it is, were to hit on you that would mean that Ryoga could hit you for cheating on him," Ayeka asked sarcastically.

"Of course not! It wouldn't be my fault if someone hit on me," Akane replied as if it were obvious. This caused everyone in the room to give her a 'duh' look. "That pervert was enjoying it!"

"Well, they were technically his fiancées at the time as well, wouldn't you enjoy attention from someone you were supposed to marry? And anyway, according to what we've heard it was all one-way affection. Ranma never encouraged their actions," Sasami asked sounding a lot more grown-up than she looked making the people from the Masaki home believe that it was actually Tsunami speaking not Sasami.

"Have you ever tasted your food," Ryoko asked.

"What does that have anything to do with it? My cooking is the best in the house," Akane declared making the Tendo's, Genma, and the Yukishiro's all face-fault.

"How many meals has your sister made that can move on their own," Ryoko asked rhetorically, "I'll admit, I tried cooking for my Tenchi, but I can't do it at all. I suck at cooking, but it just means I have to use other means to try to win Tenchi's heart."

"Would you like it if someone shoved the cause of your deepest fear into your face every chance they got," Ranma asked.

"Of course not, what does that have to do with anything," Akane asked starting to lose confidence.

"Oh, I don't know, how about all the times you shoved a c-c-c…one of those felines in my face? Or tossed Shampoo in her cursed form at me," Ranma deadpanned.

"Akane, you didn't," Kasumi asked shocked. She hadn't seen any instances of Akane doing that, but her rose colored picture of her youngest sister was quickly being dissolved.

"So what if I did," Akane demanded.

"Didn't you know he still had nightmares about being taught the Neko-ken," Kasumi admonished. Now that she thought about it, Akane's actions probably caused a good chunk of those nightmares.

"What kind of monster are you," Ayeka asked with scorn.

"No kidding, and I thought Kagato was a bastard," Ryoko said with a shiver.

"WAAAH! MY DAUGHTER TORTURED HER FIANCE," Soun wailed.

"IT'S ALL THAT PERVERT'S FAULT," Akane yelled. Akane S.O.P. when all else fails, blame Ranma.

"Akane, I don't think it's right that you keep blaming Ranma," said the one voice that shocked everyone from Nerima to the core, even shocked the other somewhat, Ryoga Hibiki.

"R-Ryoga," Akane asked in shock.

"Isn't that a bit rich coming from you," Ranma asked skeptically.

"I've been sitting here watching the entire time and thinking about things instead of just blaming everything on you like normal. I realized that if you were the person I thought you were you never would have had that girl cure my directional sense," Ryoga admitted before bowing to Ranma. "I'm sorry Ranma."

"Forget it, I treated most of our fights as spars anyway, you're one of the reasons I'm as good as I am anyway," Ranma replied before returning the bow.

"Ha ha, you're probably right. If it wasn't for our fighting I doubt I would know half of the moves I do, like the Shi Shi Hokoudan and the Bakusai Tenketsu," Ryoga said while chuckling.

"TRAITOR! RYOGA NO BAKA," Akane yelled before attempting to smash a statue over Ryoga's head. Unfortunately for her Ranma interceded and hit her sleep spot pressure point.

"Well, I think we've done all we came to do," Ranma commented before turning to Soun. "Should I find Akane practicing Anything Goes, or you still operating your dojo coughnotlikelycough then I will come back and challenge you for the dojo. After I win you will find yourself and your youngest daughter on the street."

"Shall we go," Yosho asked.

"Wait," Kasumi asked while clinging onto Ranma's shirt.

"What is it Kasumi," he asked curiously.

"Take me with you," she pleaded.

A/N: Well, I guess there'll be one more chapter on this story to wrap it up. It'll probably be in a month, but who knows, I might actually get around to it soon. Dunno though. Hope ya'll enjoyed the two chapters, and please let me know if there are any inconsistencies in the story so I can make corrections. I tried to remember things as best a I could and correct things when I remembered or noticed that I screwed up, but I'm not perfect.

Thanks for all the reviews and help that I got with the last chapter! Ya'll really helped.
