Yes. I realize everyone's concern for the song lyrics. But as long as I put up a disclaimer for it, it should be okay. Otherwise they would have taken away one of my fav stories 'Teen Titans the Musical' by now. And that one is chalk full of songs. The disclaimer for this chapter is that I don't own anything. Start the fic.

Ranma was running as fast as he could. There had to be a doctor somewhere still in town.

Luckily for Ranma there was a doctor nearer than he thought.

"This town is really kind of pretty." Said Chopper.

"It reminds me exactly of a town I once saved from a monster." Said Usopp.

Ranma's ears twitched. He hadn't ever heard those two voices before. Maybe they knew where a doctor was.

Chopper stared at his long nosed friend for a moment with half lidded eyes.

"You're lying again, aren't you?" asked Chopper.

"The monster was so huge it could gobble up the town in one bite. But I, the brave Captain Usopp stepped forward to slay the ugly beast." Lied Usopp.

"That's a yes." Said Chopper.

"Hey, you two!" shouted Ranma.

Ranma ran over to them with Ranko still in his arms.

"I need to find a doctor, fast!" said Ranma.

"Hey, wait a minute. You're…" started Usopp.

"I'm a doctor." Said Chopper.

"Great!" said Ranma.

Ranma grabbed Chopper by the arm and ran off with him leaving a dust trail behind.

"I can't believe that just happened." Said Usopp.

Elsewhere…

Zoro and Nami were walking around town that seemed deserted for some reason.

"I don't get it. Where is everyone?" asked Zoro.

"They are hiding in the swamp behind the town." Said a voice.

Zoro and Nami turned around to see a small old man with a long beard.

"I didn't even hear him sneak up behind us. Who is this old man?" thought Zoro.

"A few years ago, Ranma agreed to protect the town as long as the villagers went someplace safe so they wouldn't get caught in the crossfire. Then once they know that Ranma has gotten rid of the threat they make their way back." Said the old man.

"Well in that case why aren't you up in that swamp with the others?" asked Zoro.

"I'm afraid I'm a bit too old to make the journey so I have to stay behind. But it's okay as long as I'm well hidden. To be honest I wouldn't have it any other way, because then I wouldn't be able to see Ranma fight. That boy has done some amazing things, why I remember when Ranma fought this one pirate who didn't even look human. Oh what his name? Arm Strong? Art Long…?"

"ARLONG?" shouted Nami in shock.

"That's it! That is one fight I will never forget." Said the old man.

Flashback.

Ranma was fighting Arlong which was an okay fight, Ranma had better before.

"Just give up! This town is mine now!" said Arlong.

"Not as long as there's air in my lungs!" said Ranma.

Ranma ran towards Arlong ready to make the merman experience a broken jaw.

Ranma channeled his ki into his fist and shattered Arlong's jaw.

"HA! That should put you in your place!" said Ranma.

But Ranma was utterly shocked as he saw Arlong grow a brand new jaw.

Arlong turned to Ranma with a wicked smile.

"You can break my jaw a thousand times over but it still won't matter, I'll just keep growing them back." Said Arlong.

Ranma remained unfazed by this; in fact he was cracking his knuckles.

"Well then, if I can't break your jaw I'll just have to break something else…like that stupid nose of yours. That thing is huge!" said Ranma.

End Flashback.

"Arlong's nose snapped right off. His crew had to run him off to some merman doctor back in the Grand Line just so they could reattach it." Said the old man.

"I would've paid money to see that." Said Nami.

Elsewhere…

Some of the town people were starting to come back, including some of the women.

"OOH! The women in this town are absolutely gorgeous!" said Sanji.

Sanji walked over to the two and started to flirt with them leaving Luffy behind.

"I'm sorry but I'm trying to hold myself out for Ranma." Said the first girl.

Sanji's jaw dropped.

"Hey! No fair! Ranma's mine! Last time I went swimming he couldn't take his eyes off of me!" said the second girl.

"Yeaaah, because you're a lousy swimmer! He was probably trying to figure out if you drowning or not!" said the first girl.

Sanji gritted his teeth and raised his fist up to face height.

"How dare Ranma hog all of these gorgeous women to himself! I need to teach that guy a lesson!" thought Sanji.

"Hey! You know Ranma? Where does he live?" asked Luffy.

"Oh he lives up on that hill just barely out of town." Said the first girl.

"Sigh. I wonder if he'll take me out on a date now that he's done beating up…whoever." Said the second girl.

"You wish! If he's going to take anyone out on a date it's going to be me! After all I am President of the Ranma Fan Club." said the first girl.

The two got into a heated debate over which girl Ranma would date.

Luffy decided that now would be a good time to scram, but when he turned around Sanji was gone.

"Huh? Sanji! Where'd you go?" asked Luffy.

Elsewhere…

Ranma had brought Chopper to the house he and Ranko shared so he could look her over.

Chopper was currently investigating her cuts and bruises with some kind of monocle.

"She's in pretty bad shape." Said Chopper.

"Can you help her?" asked Ranma.

"Yes…but I'm afraid I'm going to have to operate." Said Chopper.

"OPERATE?" shouted Ranma.

"I'm afraid so, this may be a little hard for you to hear this but I'm going to have to ask you to leave. It's best that family members don't witness the operation." Said Chopper.

Ranma seemed a bit reluctant at first but he knew that the deer was right. With Ranma watching he might make him mess up or something…plus he had a feeling that this wasn't anything he wanted to see.

"Okay, but please fix her up. She's all I got left." Said Ranma.

Chopper got out his tools.

"I'll do all I can." Said Chopper.

Ranma closed the door behind him as he left.

"Hope he knows what he's doing, but then again I don't have any choice but to trust him." Said Ranma.

"RANMA PREPARE TO DIE!" shouted a voice.

Ranma looked in the direction that the voice was coming from and saw someone running up the hill towards him. He had blonde hair, curly eyebrows, and a cigarette in his mouth.

"Ranma! I will not allow you to hog all of those gorgeous women!" shouted Sanji.

Ranma blinked a couple of times in confusion.

"What are you talking about, Frenchy?" asked Ranma.

Sanji aimed a kick for Ranma's face but it never connected. Instead Ranma managed to grab his foot and threw him into a tree that was behind them.

"Listen, I don't know what your problem is but what do you say we fight AWAY from the house?" asked Ranma rhetorically.

Sanji seemed to glare at Ranma for a moment.

"Listen, I know the perfect place where we could fight. It has even footing, and there will be no one to get caught in the cross fire." Said Ranma.

Sanji continued to glare but nodded in agreement.

Ranma led Sanji into the woods which were right next to the swamp.

"Well he agreed that no one should get caught in the crossfire. I guess he's not all bad." Thought Ranma.

"I'm going to teach this guy a lesson about why you shouldn't keep all the gorgeous women to yourself!" thought Sanji.

Once they reached a small clearing Ranma faced Sanji and got into a defensive position signifying that they had reached their destination.

Sanji threw another kick at Ranma but it was once again caught.

"You'll need more than kicking to defeat me." Said Ranma.

Ranma threw Sanji once more but this time he landed on his feet.

Sanji tried to use the rebound to kick Ranma in the face but it never landed. Ranma leaned so far back his head was almost touching the ground.

But this still wasn't good news for Sanji seeing as how he kept going and crashed into a thorn bush.

Sanji got out and growled at Ranma.

Sanji sent a number of kicks towards Ranma but they never landed on him. Ranma kept merely dodging, with his hands behind his back no less!

"Okay, looks like I'm going to have to end this. Moko Takabisha!" shouted Ranma.

Sanji was connected by the ki blast which sent him flying until crashed on the trunk of a tree.

Sanji probably would have gotten up too if it weren't for one thing… the tree fell on top of him knocking him out.

"Great! Now I have to rescue him!" said Ranma.

By channeling his ki, Ranma was able to lift the tree off of the French cook.

"Told you that you would need more that kicking to defeat me." Said Ranma.

But no sooner had he said that than an outstretched arm landed on the tree's branches.

"What…?"

"Gum Gum Pistol!" shouted a voice.

Ranma looked behind him and saw a fist flying straight towards him. Ranma managed to duck before the fist could hit him. The arm grabbed a branch, slingshotting Monkey D. Luffy forward like a snap from a rubberband.

Luffy managed to land sliding on the ground but quickly turned around and glared at the pigtailed man.

He wasn't sure who this guy was but was sure that he was the one who beat up Sanji so bad.

"Gum Gum Gatteling Gun(A/N: forgive me if Gatteling is misspelled)!" shouted Luffy.

"Kachu Tenshin Amaguriken!" shouted Ranma.

Both let loose a flurry of punches which seemed to connect with each other.

"What the…? The only thing I'm punching is his fists. Looks like I might be in for a good fight." Thought Ranma.

The two broke away from each other at considerable distances.

"You can keep up with me…I'm impressed." Said Ranma.

Ranma cupped his hands towards Luffy.

"But let's see how you like this: Moko Takabisha!" shouted Ranma.

Ranma shot a ki blast straight towards Luffy.

"Gum Gum Fusen!" Shouted Luffy.

Luffy inflated himself managing to absorb the explosion of the ki blast.

Luffy still looked angry.

"Why did you hurt my friend Sanji!" demanded Luffy.

"Because he attacked me." Said Ranma.

Luffy blinked a couple of times in confusion.

"What?" asked Luffy.

"Yeah, he attacked me and I defended myself." Said Ranma.

"Oh! …then this is all just one big misunderstanding." Said Luffy.

"Wait…you're saying that you're not going to attack me anymore?" asked Ranma.

"No…now that I think about it you seem like a really nice guy. Hm…although you do seem kind of familiar." Said Luffy.

Ranma looked incredulously at the straw hat man. This guy was definitely weird, he had gone from mad to okay in a second.

"Wait a second!" said Luffy.

Luffy got a picture out of his pocket and looked from the picture to Ranma a number of times.

"I FOUND YOU!" cheered Luffy.

Okay, that's all for now. I gave you guys a little fight between Ranma and Luffy, hope you enjoyed it. I'll see you the next time I update.
