The Right One For Me




by: numbskull




So what happened last time? Akane and Ranma's other fiancees fought each other and

Ranma couldn't take it anymore so he ended up all his engagements to the girls. Genma

disowned Ranma from being a Saotome since he thought that breaking the engagement with

Akane is dishonarable (I know Genma's OOC here but this is just a fanfic). Ranma left the dojo

and decided he'll never come back there. Akane did what Kasumi told her that she should

patch things up with Ranma but Ranma dropped out of school. How can Akane fix their

problem if she doesn't have any idea where Ranma is? Is this the end of their relationship. Will

Ranma ever go back to the Tendo Dojo? Find out in the next chapters.

numbskull: This chapter will be about what Ranma did after he left the Dojo. So this is just a

flashback and it's all about Ranma. Enjoy reading and don't forget to review my stories so I

will know if it needs some changes or you don't like it or you like it. Thanks!!!

Part 3: What happened to Ranma after he left the Tendo Dojo.


Ranma closed the gates of Tendo Dojo and walked away. When he was in a far off

distance where he can only see a speck of the Tendo Dojo, he glanced back and whispered to

himself, "I had a lot of memories here and it's like my home already. All of them are like family

to me especially Akane. Sayonara, Akane. I doubt our paths will ever cross again." He

continued to walk not knowing where he was going.


Ranma kept thinking about his life back in Tendo Dojo with Akane. He smiled at first

thinking bout his good times with his friends (or rather enemies sometimes) and Akane. Then

he frowned then he remembered what just happened back in the Dojo. 'Akane, you've been

such a fool. But what the heck? You don't feel the same way i feel about you anyway. I guess

you'll never love me after what I've done to you. And I know you never did. I'm sorry for

breaking our engagement but I have to do it. You are now free, Akane. You'll never see a

BAKA anymore that will ruin your wonderful life.' Ranma sighed and wiped his tears away.

Ranma was still lost in his thoughts when he bumped into a post. He stood up and

caressed his head. "I must've been lost in thought for a long time and this post knocked a

sense on me." Ranma said and saw that he was already at Furinkan High. "I didn't know I got

here already. Am I that lost in thought already?" Ranma asked himself. Then a thought struck

his mind. "I'm leaving Nerima and I won't be back for a long time or maybe I'll never return. So

might as well talk to Principal Kuno about something." Ranma walked inside the school and

went to Principal Kuno's office.


"Ranma, what are you doing here? Are you changing your mind about that pigtail of

yours? Do you want me to cut it for you?" Principal Kuno smirked and got his scissors out and

prepared himself to cut Ranma's hair. "Don't start with me, Principal Kuno! I'm not in the mood

today to put up with your stupid crap!" Ranma yelled at Principal Kuno who backed away

since he felt that Ranma's serious.

"S-So what do you want to talk to me about Ranma?" Principal Kuno asked nervously.

"I wanted to drop out of this school. I'm not gonna be back for a long time but if you make

another stupid rule, I'll come back for you to change it." Ranma growled.

"O-Okay. But where are you going?" Principal Kuno asked. "I can't tell you since I

still don't know where I should go. I just want the school to know that I'm not going to study

here anymore. That's all." Ranma said sadly. Deep inside him, he's gonna miss this school.


"I'm leaving now. I just dropped by to say that to you, sir. Sayonara." Ranma said

and turned to leave.

Principal Kuno smirked which means he can do whatever he wants now since Saotome

Ranma is not studying in his school anymore.


Ranma walked until he got to Ucchan's. He thought of saying goodbye to her since

she's still his bestfriend but he decided not to go. He remembered that he hurt her because of

what he said earlier and she's probably mad at him. So, he just continued on his journey.

He saw a poster posted on a post and grabbed it. He saw that Toudai (Tokyo

University) is allowing new enrollees this year. "Since I've got nothing to do maybe I should go

to school and maybe they offer some physical education there. Toudai doesn't sound bad

though. Osh!!! (Alright!!!) I'm going to Toudai and I will find job. Nabiki's money isn't enough

and I think this is only for lodging. Oh well." Ranma went to a train station and boarded to

go to Kyoto.

Ranma arrived to Kyoto after an hour later. He explored Kyoto for a while and saw how

nice Kyoto was. Then he thought about how Akane was doing right now and if he had hurt her

feelings. 'No she won't be hurt because she doesn't feel anything for me anyway and our

engagement is nothing to her. Besides i still remembered that she said that she was engaged

to her greatest nightmare.' Ranma said trying to convince himself that Akane's never in love

with him.


Ranma walked for a few hours and found himself in a park. He noticed that it was getting

dark and he needs to set up his tent somewhere. He looked around and saw a grove that is

surrounded by trees. Truly, there won't be anyone going in there. He set his tent up and

gathered some wood to make fire. He took out a kettle (he took it when he was packing his

things back in the Tendo Dojo since he needs it to place hot water to turn himself back into a

guy if ever rain accidentally poured) and heated a water. After a few minutes, he poured hot

water on his instant noodles and waited until it was okay to eat it. Ranma finished his dinner

within seconds and put out the fire.

He went inside his tent and reminisced again. 'I surely missed Kasumi's cooking. I

wonder what she cooked this evening. Anyway, I should find an apartment somewhere here.

I don't wanna be stuck here in this tent forever and besides I still have Nabiki's life saving to

keep me alive. I really felt sorry that I took her money but I needed it. I'll pay her back

anyway. Oh, and I think I'll follow Principal Kuno's word. I should get this pigtail cut so that

nobody will recognize me. I hate to do it but I have no choice if I don't want to be discovered

by them. sigh' Ranma turned to his side and starts thinking of Akane again. 'I wonder how

Akane is? Has she eaten her dinner yet?' Ranma thought then reality came to his mind and he

slapped himself. "Stop it! I shouldn't think of her! Maybe I should get some sleep." Ranma

said and drifted off to sleep.

End Whoa!!! Ranma? Gets his hair cut? Unbelievable! I know he doesn't like to cut his pigtail

since he liked it the way it is but i thought about getting it cut to hide his identity. And for a

long time since I watched Ranma 1/2, I kept thinking how Ranma looks like if he doesn't have

his pigtail. I pictured it in my mind and he's still...ummm....him. He doesn't look different even if

he doesn't have a pigtail. He's still cute as ever!

"You got that right!"

numbskull: (shocked) Who's that?!

guy: Hey! Don't be shocked. It's just me, Ranma Saotome.

numbskull: (yells at Ranma) Don't scare me like that!

Ranma: Geez... sorry. Anyway I just visited you here and I heard you say that I'm still cute

eventhough I don't have my pigtail. Thanks.

numbskull: 'Ranma saying thanks?' (scratches head)

Ranma: Oh and by the way there are some characters who will visit you in every chapter and

every story you make. And it starts now.

numbskull: Really? That's cool!

Ranma: Yah! So, I'll be leaving now whispers coz those girls are chasing after me again and I

need to hide. So, see yah!!!

numbskull: Okay! See yah!

numbskull: Preview of the next chapter: Ranma gets bumped by a beautiful girl and she fell

unconscious after the bump. Ora! He forgot to give back her eyeglasses! Will Ranma fall in love

with this girl? And who is this girl? Find out in the next chapter. See yah!!!

About the reviews:

DarkInuRanma: Thanks for the review! And I'm glad you liked it!

Tangent: I know the story's short but that's all I can write to make my point about the title.

Genma's OOC here. I made it like that because I know deep inside him, he doesn't want to

disown Ranma. Eventhough Genma is a dishonorable person, I think there's still honor left in

him. And about Akane and Ukyo, they really felt betrayed since they are considered as Ranma's

closest friends. In any way, they felt that they are wrong especially when Ranma yelled all about

his frustrations. I didn't include how Ukyo felt since she is Ranma's bestfriend. I just wrote that

she cried along with Shampoo. In Akane's case, Ranma's words got into her and it really hit

her hard. Akane is an understanding person especially if the person explained to her why he did

such a thing only after she pounded him. Akane understood how Ranma felt that time and she

felt guilty after hearing what Ranma said to her. She can't think of other words to say to Ranma

and if she yelled at him back, Ranma will get more frustrated and angrier at her so I didn't made

her yell back at Ranma. And besides, she doesn't want to lose Ranma more. As for Shampoo,

I didn't let her use any drugs or potions because the story might get ruined and Ranma can't

leave Tendo Dojo and get on with his life. The story might get complicated so I let her run

away like Ukyo did. So that's it. Thanks for reviewing my story and keep reading the story and

please review. I really like your review and it made sense. Thanks!

Jerry Unipeg: Thanks!!! (smiles at Jerry)

xero-ghost: I don't know either. I already wrote 13 chapters and I think I'm getting to that

point already. I don't know if it's the last chapter. I'm still working on it. Just keep reading and

find out. Thanks for reviewing!!!

Magawa: I edited the first 2 chapters today. I included the translation of the Japanese words

I wrote there. And about the paragraphs, I fixed it too. I don't know if this is okay already.

Thanks for the corrections and advices. Keep reading and reviewing. Thanks!
