Ranma and Mara get ready to head back to Midgard when Setsuna stops them.

"What about me?" She asked.

"You're staying here." Ranma replied.

"Why?" Setsuna said.

"You'll be a target and we can't always keep an eye on you." Mara told Setsuna who looked at Ranma who shook his head.

"Mara's right, if someone comes calling and looks like he's about ten feet tall and carrying a very big hammer don't worry, that's just Thor." Ranma told Setsuna and kissed her before he and Mara left for Midgard leaving Setsuna alone.

Midgard, China

Ranma and Mara make their way through the camp trying to find Herb and Saffron who in turn was looking for them, they found Herb and Saffron talking.

"Sorry we're late." Ranma said making Herb and Saffron look at them.

"Where have you been? We thought you two abandoned us." Saffron said.

"We had to get someone out of there, and we took a one way trip to Asgard and lets just Artemis is not a happy goddess." Ranma replied.

"Who's Artemis?" Herb asked.

"Goddess of the hunt and she's not a very happy goddess with the Amazons." Ranma told Herb and Saffron before they got down to business.

Asgard

Setsuna sat in a chair in the apartment where she was staying in whilst she was in Asgard when the door to the apartment opened and Thor had to bend down to get into the apartment and was quickly followed by Artemis, Bast, Amaretsu and Peorth.

"You must be Setsuna." Thor asked.

"Yes, you must be Thor." Setsuna replied.

"That I am, this is Artemis, goddess of the hunt, Bast, goddess of cats and pleasure, Amaretsu, goddess of the sun and Peorth, goddess of roses." Thor said after pointing out each of the goddesses.

"Pleased to meet you." Setsuna replied.

"Pleased to meet you too." Artemis said.

"Hope you and Ranma have a good life together." Bast said.

"Me and Ranma might not get along but you're a lucky woman." Peorth told Setsuna.

"That's the introductions sorted out, now down to business." Thor said as he sat down and so did the goddesses that were in the room.

"That Cologne really displeases me." Artemis said.

"Well we can't get involved." Bast told Setsuna.

"Why not?" Setsuna asked.

"We gods and goddesses can't get involved in any mortals battles, all we can do is influence them." Thor replied to Setsuna's question.

"Well this could be a special case." Peorth said.

"Why?" Setsuna asked.

"Well Ranma is Kami-sama's son." Amaretsu told Setsuna.

"What? He never told me that." Setsuna replied surprised that Ranma was the son of Kami-Sama before they got a message from the almighty one asking for Setsuna's presence.

Kami-Sama's office

The almighty one sits behind his desk when Setsuna was let into the big guy's office.

"PLEASE, SIT DOWN." Ranma's father said when a chair appeared behind Setsuna before she sat down on the chair.

"Thank you." Setsuna replied.

"MY SON BROUGHT YOU UP HERE FOR A REASON." Kami-Sama said.

"I know sir, he explained why I was brought up here." She replied.

"PLEASE THERE IS NO NEED TO CALL ME SIR." Kami-Sama told Setsuna.

"What do I call you then?" Setsuna asked.

"JUST CALL ME FATHER, I KNOW THINGS THAT MY SON DOES NOT KNOW JUST YET." Kami-Sama said making Setsuna blush.

"You mean me and Ranma?" Setsuna asked.

"YES YOU, MARA AND HOTARU, BUT DON'T TELL HIM." Kami-sama told Setsuna.

After the almighty one finished talking to Setsuna and she left his office and found Thor was still waiting for her.

"You didn't have to wait for me." Setsuna told Thor.

"Something I forgot to mention, some of the goddesses are still hung up about Ranma the main two are Aphrodite and Venus." Thor told Setsuna as they went back to the apartment where Bast, Amaretsu and Peorth were still little did they realize that Aphrodite and Venus were there, when they got back to the apartment Thor opened the door for Setsuna he noticed the two goddesses of love.

"Uh oh." Thor said.

"What?" Setsuna asked.

"You remember what I was telling you about Aphrodite and Venus?" Thor asked.

"Yes." Setsuna replied.

"Well, they're here." Thor told Setsuna before she walked into the apartment and the two goddesses of love saw Thor and Setsuna.

"What's he like in bed?" Venus asked.

"Who?" Setsuna asked trying to lie.

"Don't lie." Aphrodite replied as Thor walked over to Bast, Amaretsu and Peorth.

"What are they doing here?" Thor asked when he, Bast and Amaretsu looked at Peorth.

"What? Don't look at me like that, I never told them." Peorth told them.

"Then how did they know?" Bast asked.

"I don't know?" Thor said as he looked at Venus and Aphrodite trying to get information about Ranma out of Setsuna.

"Think we should help her?" Peorth asked.

Thor walked over to the two goddesses of love and ejected them from the apartment and closed the door behind them.

"Sorry about that, we don't know how they found out about this." Thor said.

"Why are they so hung up about Ranma?" Setsuna asked.

"Long story cut short, they've both tried to bed him." Bast said.

"Father wasn't happy about that." Peorth replied before she, Amaretsu and Bast left the apartment.

"I'm really sorry about those two." Thor said.

"It's okay." Setsuna replied before Thor left the apartment leaving Setsuna alone.

Midgard

Ranma and Mara sit around a fire with several of the Musk and Phoenix talking about things.

"Me? I've got quite a few stories from over the centuries that I've been alive for, but I won't go into them." Ranma said.

"I'm the same as Ranma." Mara replied.

The Phoenix and Musk sat around the fire continued to tell stories about their adventures during their lives and what they'll be doing after the final battle.
