Chapter 12: Love Blooms for the Brothers
"Well, what do we do from here?" Kyo asked to the other scouts.
"We usually disappear and go back to class and pretend nothing really happened because the principal helps us out."
"The principal is one of the outers," Ami told them, "what? Don't look so shocked." Ranma and Kyo's jaws were on the ground. Then they heard their school bell ring.
"It looks like it's time for lunch. We better get back before something happens." Usagi said. They all nodded the scouts ran to the school while Kyo and Ranma took the high road and started to roof hop back to the school.
'This is going to be weirder than when I was in Furinkan High!' Ranma thought
'Duh. Your with the sailor scouts! Did you really think that you could lead a normal life with your luck?' A voice said in his head.
'Wow! Who the hell are you and why are you talking in my head?' Ranma thought.
'It's me you idiot! Ranko! I forgot to tell you that ever since our first meeting, I am little by little merging with you. That's why you could start controlling your Neko-ken side.' Ranko told him, 'That's why I can now start talking to you in your mind, and if you don't want to be thought as crazy, you'll talk to me through your thoughts although I can see that your brother already kinda knows what's happening.'
Ranma looked over to Kyo seeing concern in his eyes.
"Don't worry, I was talking to my neko-ken avatar."
"I know, I thought you were doing something along those lines because your facial expression was a not so fitting face of a thinker." Kyo said
"Yeah I gue… Hey!" Kyo laughed at how slow Ranma caught on.
Back at the school
"Hey Ranma, where do you want to eat lunch at?" Kyo asked.
"I was thinking of going to the roof." Ranma said as they started to walk out the class room.
"Uhh. Ranma, Don't you want to do something about the youma blood you have on your clothes?" Kyo asked.
"No. What about you? You still have the hole in your shirt from getting stabbed with a spear! Plus you have as much blood on your shirt as I do!" Ranma rebutted.
"Touché"
Up on the roof
The scout girls were up in their usual spot for lunch.
"Ami, I couldn't believe you, of all people could do such a bold thing!" Aino said causing Ami to blush brightly.
"But that was so brave of Kyo to go and take such a blow to protect you!" Makoto said with dreamy eyes and thinking of what would've happened if she was in Ami's place. Every one sweated at the giggles that came from Makoto.
That's when the door swung open. Everyone looked over to see a sweating Kyo, and Ranma mad-dashing out and slamming to door shut.
"Damn it! Why is it on the very first day of school we have a fan-club! And where do they keep coming from! These girls are worse than those damn Fiancées you had back in Nerima before you broke all ties with them." Kyo said taking in a heaving breath.
"Yeah, well you try to correct everything your damn pops done to you, and arranged marriages with random women for food then get treated like a trophy by them and beaten every waking moment of your life for things you didn't even do!" Ranma said getting pissed.
"Umm…" Ami spoke up to get their attention!
"WHAT!" Kyo and Ranma said activating Tendo Soun's patented demon head. Their anger quickly diffused with the sight of n almost crying Ami.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry I didn't mean to yell at you!" Ranma said hysterically. Kyo just sighed and walked up to Ami and knelt down to look her in the eye.
"We're sorry for yelling at you Ami-san, it's just that we were being chased by a bunch of fan-girls and we let our anger take us over for a second there. We didn't mean to make you cry or anything." Kyo said trying to cheer her up. But to no avail, she started crying.
"Umm… you guy's might hate us now but could you try and help us?" Ranma asked.
Rei sighed heavily, "Why should we help you guy's dig out of your own graves when you dug it yourself?" Kyo and Ranma looked down, "But since you guy's look stressed and did save us, I guess we'll help you." Rei said smiling he signed for Kyo to come over which he promptly followed and walked over to her. She started to whisper something in his ear. Ranma, with his enhanced hearing could hear everything being said, "Now Kyo, Ami has a cruch on you and being yelled at by you probably broke her heart to an extent. Now take responsibility and give her a kiss on the lips and make up!" Ranma and Kyo were blushing like crazy.
But Kyo just rubbed his head then said, "Well, a man must take responsibility for his actions. It can't be helped." He walked over to Ami, who was crying still, and lifted her head up and kissed her right on the lips. This shocked those who didn't hear what Rei said to Kyo and the fan-girls who just got through the locked door. Ami was shocked at first but fell in to the kiss in a matter of moments.
'I hope he doesn't break off.' Ami thought.
But like everything else, all good things must come to an end. Ami was a little sad about this but was happy that her crush gave her a kiss. The fan-girls were seething with anger.
"I hope you accept our apology Ami-san, because I don't want to lose a valuable friend on the first day of school." Kyo said blushing a little, "Oh and we came up here to have lunch, can we join you guys?"
The group smiled and nodded and glared over at the fan girls, who consequently drooped their heads and walked back to eat their lunch.
Lunch was a happy occasion for the girls, namely Rei and Ami.
Rei was talking with Ranma about how to control larger amounts of ki, while Kyo and Ami talked about Random things and some philosophical discussions.
"So how did you learn to control ki Ranma?" Rei asked nudging herself closer to Ranma's side. Ranma felt uncomfortable but couldn't say a thing from the trauma instilled by his pops and his ex-Fiancées.
'You know Ranma, That girls probably developing feeling for you.' Rankop told him.
'I know but I'm not ready to be in a serious relationship yet! What the hell should I tell her? Plus you know aboutmy foot in mouth disease I'll probably say something stupid and get her mad enough to kill me!' Ranma complained.
'Fine Just repeat what I tell you.' Ranko said.
"Umm… Rei?"
"Yes?"
"I know you're getting some kind of feelin for me and stuff like that"
'Hmm… he's not as dense as I thought he was.' Rei thought. But then was crowded by Usagi, Aino and Makoto and dragged across to the other side of the roof.
"Is it true? You're having feelings for Ranma?" Aino said with a little jealousy running though her word.
Rei blushed, "Yes, no, I can't really tell yet."
"Well, I think you do but I think you should wait till you actually know for sure." Usagi said.
"Umm… are you guys finished so I can go back to listening what Ranma had to say to me?" Rei said with a vein pulsing. The girls scrambled before she blew a gasket.
She called herself down, and went back to sitting next to Ranma.
"So what were you saying before I was rudely interrupted?"
"Well I just said I know you got feelins for me and all but…" Ranma was about to say but the words never came.
"Another words, He was treated like trash and or a trophy by girls he knew and cared for and even convicted of perversion he never committed and was malleted over the head for no reason and now he is weary of girls who develop feeling for him." Kyo said. The girls were to say shocked at what's been happening with these two's life.
"Yeah so I wanted to see if we could start off by being friends and all. Then I may or may not be ready for a date or two with ya." Ranma finished.
Rei just nodded and held out her hand which Ranma promptly shook.
"Friends?" Rei asked.
"Friends" Ranma replied with his smile making her blush like a binge Cherry.
Then the school bell rang signaling lunch was over.
Everyone got their stuff cleaned up and were heading down the stairs.
Up in the Heavens
Kami looked down upon the Brothers and their developing relationship.
"So Love blooms for the brothers finally." Kami said.
"Did you say something sir?" an angel asked.
"No, don't worry about it Michael, I was justtalking to myself." Kami said. Mihael shrugged and flew off to finish an errand.
'And so the wheel of destiny goes on for those two. I hope they can get through their lives peacefully as possible.' Kami thought as he saw Ami slip on one of the stairs and was promptly caught by Kyo.
'Kyo Abarai and Ranma Abarai, two people whose life was and still is a living hell but still up holds a strong sense of honor and justice and will protect the happiness of those around them even if it costed them their own life. These qualities should be praised and they will be rewarded once they cross over to our side.' Kami thought as he walked back to his office to finish a bunch of paper works.
"I hate this part of my job. sigh I need a vacation." Kami said as he opened the door to his office.
