(Not much to say here. Except enjoy the story)
Chapter 9: Their New Home
Morning time before breakfast
The morning light's of the sun was creeping through the crack in the curtains to light up the face of the sleeping Ami. The slowly got up and rubbed her eyes of squinting her eyes to let her eyes get used to the light. She then stretched, "Wow that was the best sleep I had in a long time," She said to herself as she looked around the room, "Just a minute, why am I in Kyo's room? I thought I was watching the stars with…" she blushed thinking of what happened last night. She looked around to see no one in the room other than herself.
'I wonder where Kyo is,' She thought as she got up and cleaned up the room before leaving to go look for the kind and extremely cute boy.
Over with Ranma and Nodoka
Ranma opened his eyes, as he always woke up so he could defend himself from a surprise attack by Genma, was surprised he couldn't move his arms or get up for that matter. He looked around and saw that his mother was holding him in her arms, and this put a smile on his face looking at his mothers smiling face as she continued to sleep. Cautiously he tried to get himself out of his mothers grasp but to no avail, she just held on to him tighter.
Ranma now needed to go to the toilet really bad at this point (Sucks to be him and be stuck with bad luck!) so after a couple moments more of wriggling and dislocating shoulder joints, he finally got out of her grasp and ran for the bathroom.
Back with Ami
"Kyo! Kyo! Where are you?" Ami said as she went around the house looking for him.
"What are you doing up so early Ami-chan?" she heard someone say behind her. She turned around to see Rei and the other girls yawning as they walked towards their friend.
"Kyo's missing, I can't find him anywhere." She said. Just then there was a loud thud out in the yard the girls looked at each other and ran towards the noise. As soon as they reached the area with the noise they saw Kyo on the ground… to be precise, in a crater in the shape of his outline ON the ground.
"KYO!" Ami yelled as she began running towards the still figure of Kyo followed by the other girls. Suddenly, Kyo lifted his head up, "Morning already! Kami that was the best sleep I had in a while!" He said causing all the girls to face fault and skid past him.
"As soon as that happened Rei, Makoto, Usagi, and Aino got up ran to him and punched him over the head, "DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN!" they yelled at him.
"Heh heh heh. Sorry about that." He said to them rubbing the back of his head which had been shoved back in the face shaped part of the crater. He put both hands palm down on the ground and did a hand stand before pushing himself off and doing a flip facing the girls landing on his feet.
"Man, it's great to sleep outdoors but man it makes you stiff all over." Kyo said as he started to do morning stretches. As he did this, there where sickening cracks sounding from all the joints in his body.
"WHERE exactly did you sleep last night?" Rei asked as tried to calm herself down and refrain from knocking Kyo in to the stratosphere.
"Up on that branch." Kyo said as he pointed up to the branch almost near the top of tree. The eye balls of the girls almost flew out of their eyes as they looked at the place where Kyo pointed at.
"Your crazy to sleep there!" Makoto said, "Your lying to us aren't you?"
"If I was, why would there be a crater in my likeness unless I fell from that height?" Kyo retorted, "Umm… why are you girls still in your pajamas? Isn't it cold?" The girls looked at themselves and blushed.
"You're impossible." Rei said angrily as she walked back to the house followed by the others except Ami who walked over to Kyo.
"Are you sure you're fine?" Ami asked.
"I'm fine. Thanks for worrying about me though." Kyo replied with a smile on his face which made her blush even deeper.
"Let's get you inside before you catch a cold." Kyo said as he patted her shoulder and walked back toward the house followed by Ami.
With Ranma at the exact moment where we left off
"Thank Kami I just got there in time!" Ranma exclaimed as he got out. He stifled a yawn and rubbed his eyes to take out the remaining sleep he had in him. 'I should go wake mom up soon.' He thought as he walked towards the yard. On the way he walked into Kyo and Ami.
"Hey Kyo! Sleep well?" Ranma asked his brother.
"Yeah but I woke up sore all over." Kyo answered smiling.
"Hey Kyo I'll be going to talk with the other girls." Ami said as she started to walk off.
"See you at breakfast Ami-san." Kyo said. Ranma smiled at how well he can talk to women.
"Hey Ranma, Want to do a morning exercise?" Kyo said smiling. Ranma caught on to what he was implying.
"You're on!" Ranma said as the two went outside to go against each other.
With the girls
"I can't believe that guy Kyo! He makes me so mad!" Rei said as she stomped in the hall way to her room.
"Aww, he isn't so bad. He probably just isn't a morning person." Aino said, "Plus he is really, really cute."
"Hi guys" Ami said coming in through the door.
"Oh hi Ami-chan." Rei said, "But even though he's cute he still is annoying."
"Don't insult him! He's really nice and compassionate especially last night when he…" Ami blushed as she remembered what happened last night. The other girls caught on to this.
"Ok Ami-chan spill it! What did he do with you?" The girls asked.
"Did he kiss you?" Usagi asked.
"Did he tell you he was struck with cupid's arrow when he saw you?" Aino asked.
"You mean love on first sight! That's so romantic!" Chibi-Usa said with a dreamy look in her eyes.
"No, no, Nothing like that. It's just that I fell asleep after a while of watching over him. He woke up after I fell asleep and put me in his bed."
"YOU mean he had his way with you!" Makoto shouted.
"NO! I woke up around that time and saw him leave lie. But when I went outside the room he was gone. I looked around the place and found him on the roof of the shrine looking at the sky." Ami said, "He looked so dreamy with the moonlight shinning n his face."
"Look girls, our friends in love." Usagi said getting a sly look on her face. The other girls caught on and were laughing in a sinister way. 'This can't be good thought Ami as she thought she just signed her life to the devils.
Back to the brothers
The two were sweating profusely.
"Man Kyo! You're almost like Ryoga, a human tank." Ranma said snickering.
"I'll take that as a compliment." Kyo said smiling.
Some where in Somalia
"Damn it! Where the hell is Nerima Prefecture. This is all your fault Ranma!" Ryoga yelled out into the sky. He looked around to see that he was in a village. Everyone was looking at him. 'Maybe those people know where I am' He thought.
"Excuse me which way do I go to get to Nerima?" Ryoga asked the native.
"Umm me la tuck tuck click (Who the hell are you?)" the Somalian said.
Ryoga sweated.
Back in Juuban, Japan
"Hey Kyo I'm going to wake mom up." Ranma said wiping his face with a towel Mr. Hikawa offered.
"Thank you for the towels old man," Ranma said as he walked away to wake his mother up.
"No problem my child." Mr. Hikawa said to Ranma.
"I'll go make breakfast for everyone," Kyo said, "Thank you for the towel."
"Oh you don't have to make break…fast." Mr. Hikawa said but found no one listening.
Then Kyo came back around the corner of the veranda, "Tell everyone that Breakfast will be made in 15 minutes so can you tell that to everyone please. Thank you." and disappeared around the corner again. Mr. Hikawa sweated a little on how fast these kids were.
15 minutes later
"Breakfast is ready! Chow time!" Kyo yelled out. The first ones to come to the dining room, no surprise, were Usagi and Ranma. Then followed by the other girls, then the last people were Nodoka and Mr. Hikawa.
"So what did you make for breakfast son?" Nodoka asked.
"Just the regular, rice with miso soup, a side of cooked fish and pickled vegetables." Kyo said as he served the rice to people. As the people picked up their chopsticks they heard.
"Seconds please!"
Everyone looked to see Ranma and Usagi holding out their bowls.
"Ranma it's not manly to eat like a pig." Nodoka scolded her son.
"Sorry still a habit from when I lived with that bastard." Ranma said then looked at his mother to see a disapproving look then looked around. He finally caught on, "Umm. Sorry." He said and his mother nodded.
"Well I can't disagree with him there. Genma is a bastard." Kyo said earning a frown from his adoptive mother and a nod from his brother. Kyo smiled as he took both bowls from the two and refilled it with rice.
"So Nodoka, are you going after breakfast?" Mr. Hikawa said, "I mean, if your son can cook this good, I wouldn't mind keeping him around."
"Well I we don't want to over stay our welcome and we got to get situated at the family house." Nodoka replied.
"Well you don't have to worry about over staying your welcomes. You and you're family are always welcomed here."
"Thank you for your Generosity." And after that breakfast was pretty much a silent order except for the glares Kyo received from the girls who looked back and forth from Ami to him, 'This is definitely not good.' thought Kyo as he pretended not to notice anything and ate in silence.
After breakfast Kyo, Nodoka and Ranma were packed and already at the front gates ready to head out. They were seen out by everyone.
"Thank you for everything!" Ndoka said bowing to Mr. Hikawa followed by Kyo and Ranma.
"Come again anytime." Mr. Hikawa told them as he laughed. Once they were out they walked south-west for a little while.
"Hey mom, what's the family house like anyways?" Ranma asked.
"It's big and roomy. I think you two would like it there." Nodoka said and walked ahead leaving two confused martial artists to follow her.
Couple minutes later
"Ok we're here!" Nodoka proclaimed as she stopped and pointed. Ranma and Kyo stopped and looked over to where she pointed. It wasn't just big it was HUGE.
"Holy crap mom! This is like, ten times the size of the Kuno's estate and their house is huge. Not to mention littered with traps to force me or Akane in to marriage or death depending on which Kuno's we're talking about." Ranma said actually saying something intelligent in his life for once that did not involve martial arts.
"You think it is big now! This is only the front gate." Nodoka replied making the two boy's eyes bulge.
"So you're telling me this is just the front gate?" Kyo asked.
"No. I was just kidding you two." Nodoka said giggling, "I swear you two are so gullible at times."
"So I guess we start our new life here Ranma." Kyo said.
"Yeah" Ranma replied.
"Well, shall we go inside?" Nodoka asked. The two nodded and Nodoka unlocked the door pushing it open for the two to enter.
To be continued…
