Chapter 3: Enter the Pig.
Ranma grabbed Nabiki and jumped out of the way as the ground they were just standing on became a crater.
"Ranma, I have found you, prepare to die!"
Ranma looked at the individual in the crater. He was about his height, muscular, and had a yellow bandana with black spots on it. "Who are you and why did you do such a foolish thing as put my fiancée in danger?"
"You don't remember me?" the boy inquired.
"No! Now who are you?" Ranma questioned again clapping his hands together.
"Does it matter? Because of you, I've seen hell! Now die Ranma!" The stranger rushed him with a large red umbrella. "You ran out on a man to man duel and I fallowed you all the way to China!"
Ranma caught the umbrella and it exploded in his hand. This did not stop his assailant, who followed with a right hook catching Ranma in the gut and damaging his school uniform. This did not please Ranma in the slightest. After getting back up from the punch, he continued to kick and attack the boy until the attacker tripped and landed in the crater. Ranma put his arm around Nabiki and walked into the school before the boy got up.
"Where did he go?" asked the boy.
One of the other students pointed to the school and the bandanna boy ran the opposite direction. The rest of the student body stared in shock.
Nabiki dropped Ranma off at his class and gave him a peck on his cheek before going to her class. The day seemed to drag on. Ranma was asleep on his desk and Nabiki was calculating today's profit when the bell for lunch rang. Nabiki got out of her seat and walked to the window to see if her minions were doing their jobs before walking out the door to Ranma's class. She was walking down the hall when she was grabbed from behind. Her first reaction was to spin around and deck whoever grabbed her, but to her surprise it was Ranma. They started walking down the hall when Ranma grabbed Nabiki and pulled her to the right. Ranma then sent a spin kick behind him hitting Kuno, knocking him out.
"Kuno stop these foolish attacks and if you swing at Nabiki once more I will make it so you never practice the art again." Ranma threatened the boy on the ground and walked away.
"Nabiki, don't you have something to tell Kuno?" Ranma inquired as the two sat beneath the cherry tree like they have for the past week eating lunch laughing and having a good time.
"I will give him the message before I leave today." Nabiki said before they had to go their separate ways.
The two didn't see each other again until after school. Nabiki was waiting at the front gate for her betrothed, watching Kuno jumping around and spinning, when she found herself flying. The brunette's first reaction was to look down, as she did, the person carrying her landed on a rooftop then took off again. Seeing the ground coming at her so fast caused her to hold onto her captor tighter until they came to a complete stop.
"Where are we?" Nabiki asked as she looked around.
"I thought you liked coffee." Ranma stated and pulled her into a building.
The two sat down and ordered their drinks. Ranma was telling Nabiki about china and she was telling him about some of the vacations they had gone on. When they had their fill, the two stepped outside. Ranma's mind was wrapped around Nabiki when the ground exploded in front of them. Ranma took the blunt of the blast but Nabiki fell in an awkward direction and screamed in pain. Ranma checked Nabiki quickly and saw that she had twisted her ankle. Then he saw a trickle of blood where a piece of rubble hit her. Ranma turned and looked at his opponent. It was the same boy from earlier.
"What did I tell you earlier? Now you are going to pay." Ranma made a dash at his opponent punching him in the jaw and knocking him back with a kick to the solar plexus.
The boy doubled over in pain then stood back up. "I, Ryoga Habiki, will have my vengeance for what you did to me. I don't care about anything else."
Ranma stood there thinking. "Now I remember! I waited for three days for you for that fight. You never showed." Ranma stated.
"Sure you waited three days but when I showed up on the fourth you had run off to China," Ryoga spat.
Ranma began picking Nabiki up in his arms. "We will finish this another time. I have to get her to doctor Tofu because of you." Ranma jumped to the roof and started running. Ranma almost made it to doctor Tofu's when he heard a whizzing noise fly past his ear. Then he saw the object that made it: a yellow bandanna, which was flying away from him. Then he heard it again and saw three more. Ranma jumped off the roof and landed in front of the clinic just in time to see Akane charge him. Ranma made a dash for the front door and put Nabiki in the waiting room.
The raven-haired boy made it outside just in time to see Ryoga take off his belt and transmute it into a sword. "When did you learn to transmute?" Ranma asked as he started to duck and jump as the boy attacked him.
"You won't live long enough to care" Ryoga told him.
Then Ranma saw an opening. He took it, and the sword was sent flying. The two boys watched as Akane dashed for them and then stopped when the sword landed and turned back into a belt.
Akane felt that something was wrong by the way the two were looking at her and by how light her head felt. Then she put her finger into her hair and stood there in shock. The boys were also in shock, and didn't know what to do. Ranma remembered what happened to him when Akane walked in on him and Nabiki. Ranma quickly decided to run and check on Nabiki, leaving a confused Ryoga standing there, watching the mallet get closer to him.
Nabiki was having her heel wrapped when Ranma came in. She was about to ask what was going on when they heard a sickening sound of wood connecting with bone. Ryoga burst in with a broken arm and the bone poking through his skin. Ranma breathed one word barely loud enough for Nabiki to hear, "Akane." Doctor Tofu started to reset Ryoga's arm and the couple left before he finished. Ranma carried Nabiki in his arms, walking down the street instead of running on the roofs, so as not to aggravate her injuries.
When the two came to the dojo, Ranma announced their entrance and they were bombarded with questions. Ranma tried to answer as many as he could before taking Nabiki to her room. Nabiki soon found sleep in the comfort of her bed with her fiancé watching over her.
Ranma brushed her hair from her face and kissed her forehead. "Rest, you have a big week ahead of you."
