Sexuality: Happosai's Revenge

Chapter 3: Akane's Tender Loving Anger

Nabiki awoke to her sister knocking on her door.

"Thanks Kasumi!"

She smiled, hugging the tape she made last night in her arms. Today was a wonderful day to make money. But she didn't feel as happy as she thought she would. Ranma was still plagued by an unquenchable lust. None of her oral ministrations helped. She hoped Dr. Tofu called soon. She heard the phone ring as she got dressed.

"Ah, speak of the devil."

She floated down the stairs to the kitchen. She saw Akane about to shout, but stopping short as she saw Nabiki.

"It's for you."

Nabiki smiled. "Thank you."

"Why would Dr. Tofu be calling you anyway? He should be calling for Kasumi."

Nabiki sighed at her sister's naivete. "You know Dr. Tofu can't talk straight to Kasumi. Not to mention I called him yesterday for some help for Ranma."

"Oh. Well tell me if I can help." Akane turned and walked indignantly off in her usual immature way. God, Nabiki thought, the girl has this whole view of the world that if anything deviates from it she gets upset. Can't tell her a damn thing.

"Hello?"

Well, I left some messages with my colleagues yesterday and one of them from China got back with me. It turns out that the moxibustion originated from there. It was first seen used by an Amazon trying to catch her husband. There is no direct counter cure for this. The only way to help the afflicted is to sleep with them regularly, wearing the lust away. Only intercourse works while in effect. Eventually around a month, give or take a week, the victim's libido goes back normal and the mark disappears. However, normally after so much intercourse the victim gains a taste or addiction to it. They most likely will never be able to stay abstinate for long ever again.

Nabiki growled. The old man better NEVER show his face around her again. She might hire a sniper from the yazuka if she saw him again.

Nabiki, could you tell me who –Click

Nabiki hung up. She didn't mean to be rude, but she was mad and didn't want the doctor prying. If he did, everyone in the family would probably end up knowing. That would be bad. Their fathers would just use this as an excuse to try to force Akane and Ranma to have sex. That would cause some SERIOUS repercussions. It would probably utterly destroy what little chance there is of Akane doing this willingly. That would probably destroy Ranma and Akane's relationship, what little there is of it. Their forcing them together is mostly what keeps them apart, along with Akane's lack of trust, temper and habit to assume the worst.

She would hurry and go to school to the AV room before anyone arrived there to edit the tape into one for each of Ranma's genders. Then she would make mass copies and sell them after school. She thought she could manage to pull a few favors with the teachers and skip classes to make copies. By the lunch she might have about 10 of each to sell for a bundle. She also had to look into something else she needed.

"It's good to see you Kensuke," Nabiki spoke in a voice that promised a lighter wallet and emotional scars.

"W-What do you want?" Nabiki frowned at the not-so-polite sounding phrase.

"I need you to buy something for one of my clients. They are much too ashamed to buy them themselves."

"What's in it for me?"

"Well, I'll take the double price of the needed items off your debt. You pay. That's a good deal huh?"

The guy sweated. "What is it you want me to buy?"

Nabiki smirked. She knew she had him. "I need you to buy condoms and return to give them to me shortly. I'll be in the AV room."

"C-Condoms! I can't buy those..."

"Take it or leave it. If you don't I'll make sure I'm NEVER so generous again."

The boy flinched. "Okay, okay." The boy sulked off to procure the asked items.

Nabiki smiled. That was one piece of the plan executed. Now all she had left as to talk to Kasumi.

Nabiki came in with the items secured in her bag. She took two out and placed them in their pocket, making sure no one saw. She sat down and ate dinner with everyone.

"Kasumi?" Nabiki called as her sister cleared the table.

"Yes, Nabiki?"

"I need to talk to you in private. Come to my room after your done?"

Kasumi nodded.

Kasumi opened the door and walked into Nabiki's room. Nabiki closed and put away her ledger. She turned towards Kasumi.

"Shut the door behind you." Kasumi complied.

"I know how to help Ranma, but it has got to be kept secret. This will probably cause problems as is."

Kasumi tilted her head questioningly then nodded. "He's been looking so bad lately. He shakes sometimes when he's awake and he has a hard time sleeping. I have to give him special tea to put him to sleep. Whatever grandfather did to him it's quite horrible."

Nabiki smiled wryly. "I guess you could say that. The thing is I need your help. What I didn't tell you was what the moxibustion was. It was a lust-enhancing one." Kasumi blushed as she recalled Ranma touching her. "The only way to fix it is to...sleep with him."

Kasumi eyes widened in actual shock. "Oh, my."

"What I need you for is to help get the parents out of here when we get home from our half day of school tomorrow. I also need you to help me convince Akane to help her inazuke."

"Oh my... I don't know if I can condone them doing this...they're still so young..."

"Kasumi...if we don't, Ranma will be stuck half catatonic until we do. Not to mention if we take to long too help him, it might be so bad he might just take someone. And Ranma's quite physically capable of overpowering anyone. That would be bad."

Kasumi bit her lip before nodding. "They'll be getting married anyway..." She tried to convince herself.

Nabiki and Akane entered home at the same time after walking from the school. It was just after noon.

"Tadaima!"

"Okaerinasai!" Only Kasumi answered. Nabiki inwardly cheered. Their parents weren't home. Nabiki slipped off her shoes and went to the den where Kasumi was sewing.

"So, how'd you get them gone?"

"I gave them money to go enjoy some sake."

Nabiki sighed. They would be coming back drunk later on that night.

"I guess it's time to talk to Akane while the chance is still available." Nabiki called, "AKANE!"

Akane came running down the stairs. She had just finished checking on the sleeping Ranma. "What?"

"We need to talk. Sit." Akane confusingly complied.

"I know we didn't tell you what the moxibustion was. It is a lust-enhancing one. I got Dr. Tofu to look it up for me, and he told me only sleeping with him would work."

Akane's eyes widened in shock.

"Since you're his inazuke we figured it would only be right for you to help him. We won't tell anyone." Nabiki pulled something out of her pocked and handed it to the shocked Akane. Akane blinked and took a moment to look at what she had been given.

"You're not serious are you?" Their expressions told her they were. "I can't believe you'd believe that perverted jerk! This scheme has to top the cake!" Akane's wonderful reasoning kicked in.

"Akane, I'm not lying. I haven't even told Ranma about the cure yet. I was also there when he got the moxibustion. So I know first hand."

"What is this some scheme to get me and Ranma together!"

Kasumi looked sadly at Akane. "Do you really believe that? I purposely sent Father and Uncle Saotome away so you would have privacy."

Akane stood with a crazed angry look in her eyes. "How'd he get you up to this? Huh?"

"No one put us up to this Akane. If you aren't going to do it, then I guess I'll call another one of his inazuke."

Flames in Akane's eyes flared dangerously. "He can go screw every girl in Nerima for all I care, the pervert!"

Kasumi spoke up, "Do you really mean that Akane? Because if you don't help him, he'll get help elsewhere. Do you really want that?"

Akane's eyes flickered with fear before hardening. "YES! I'm going to pound him for this stupid scheme to get me in his bed!" Akane began stomping towards the stairs.

Kasumi suddenly felt ashamed of her sister and guilty that she didn't try harder to help Akane's temper. Her temper just defies all reason. Kasumi found she thought it was nigh time to nip this problem in the bud. She didn't want her sister to hate her, but it was for the best. Her voice came out surprisingly cold for her. "Akane. If you go and hit Ranma now for something that wasn't his fault you are NOT welcomed at the diner table, you understand me?"

Nabiki's jaw dropped before she nodded sadly. It was about time somebody started standing up to her temper. Kasumi's voice came out very similar to a mother scolding a two-year-old.

That Akane's rage stumbled as tears began filling her eyes. "How could my own sister side with Ranma!"

"I am not siding with anyone. I am stopping you from doing something wrong. Besides, violence is NOT always the answer. It doesn't solve anything." Kasumi suddenly found her own anger at her sisters illogical abuse of Ranma flowing to the fore, "In fact, if you EVER hit Ranma again during the day, don't expect your next meal. It seems that I have to resort to that. I had asked you a long time ago not to hit out of anger and you broke that promise without much thought. Does he hit YOU, Akane? No. He doesn't. I expect you to treat him the same way he treats you and no more. If he calls you names, you just call him names back. Words do not justify hitting, Akane! You should know better as a Martial Artist. Daddy taught you better!"

Kasumi suddenly took a deep shaky, calming breath. She had desperately needed one after the long string of words that poured from her mouth. She took another deep breath and smoothed the lines of irritation off her face. She kept her eyes hard, however, when she looked at her teary sister. Akane suddenly turned and ran up the stairs, slamming her door. Kasumi started crying.

Nabiki put a hand on Kasumi's shoulder to comfort her. "She probably hates me now."

"Shhh... Kasumi. She has been needing that for a while. In the end she'll love you more for it."

Kasumi continued crying.
