CHAPTER ONE

ARRIVAL

- - - - - - -

It was a new day, and I couldn't be happier. I was awake, in the room of a certain young woman. A certain young woman who I love. Who I had just last night been making love to. And, frankly, I was looking forward to a second go.

Chaos was a wild lover, open to many new things and willing to compromise on what she wanted out of it. We weren't ready for a child, so, of course, I had managed to head to a drug store and get some condoms. My mother would be disappointed with the lack of grandchildren thus far, but she would understand.

Oh yeah, how rude of me. To those new to my story, my name is Saotome Ranma. But people call me Sonic. Beside me, in her bed, is Scavenger Kale, Kale Scavenger where she's from. Although I think Saotome Kale sounds a bit cuter... And I was looking forward to when that name would be hers, provided I can ever get up the guts to ask this beautiful woman to marry a jock like me.

It's weird. Just the other day, I didn't know who I loved, now I desperately want to be always and forever with the one I chose.

Granted... 'Just the other day' was almost a month ago...

Oh, how rude of me again! Anyways, Kale is her given name, but we all call her Chaos. She has the most beautiful snow white hair and emerald green eyes that seemed to shimmer when she would look at me. I loved everything about her, not just her body. She is one of the most amazing girls I have ever known.

I met her a while back, on a fateful day of school. When I first saw her, I didn't know my feelings at first. But... Looking back now, it must have been love at first sight for me. It must be true, hindsight really is twenty twenty.

I love her with all my heart, more than I ever did for the other girls, especially Akane... And I had killed for Akane.

That in itself is a story I would rather not share. You probably know about me, so I'll just leave it at that. Be that as it may, there is little more that I like to do but watch my darling Chaos sleep.

I heard her move a little, and smiled. Running my fingers through her lovely hair, I kissed her on the forehead and smiled wider. "Wake up, my dear. It's morning."

I heard her moan a little before she opened one eye, looking at me with a smile. I kept my own smile on, as she wrapped her arms around my neck and pulled herself up. I returned her motion, bringing my lips to hers in a gentle, loving kiss.

When we pulled back, I could feel her hands on a certain part of my anatomy before I chuckled. "Wow, you're insatiable... But I wouldn't have it any other way." I said with a smile.

She giggled and rose her hands, running them through my blue hair. That's right. blue hair. My hair changed colors over time from when I awoke to a certain set of powers.

I grinned and let her play with my hair for a few seconds before kissing her once more, and rolling over to get out of bed.

Chaos had a nice, comfy bed as compared to my small futon at home. It was hard to return to the futon after having spent a few nights over with Chaos. Granted, at those times, we weren't getting much sleep, but I have to agree that the bed is better on my back.

Stretching, I heard Chaos getting out of bed as well. I turned my head just a bit to get a peek of her with a mischievous grin on my face.

"Don't even think about it." Was Chaos' reply, without even looking at me as she stretched. I grinned at this. She really knew me well. Either that, or I'm just getting predictable. Poor me.

"Okay." I said simply, before heading to the bathroom connected to Chaos' master bedroom.

That's the thing. Over the past month, we reorganized Chaos' house. Originally, she had left her parents' room and everything the same. In an attempt to cheer her up, we, that being me and my circle of good friends, helped to move things around, with her permission. We moved her parents' things out of the master bedroom and moved her things in, placing her parents' things in the attic or at the Scavenger family shrine, mostly her parents' most prized possessions.

I was happy to know that, when all was done, Chaos was happier. No longer waking to a constant reminder of the loss of her parents, instead she was looking to the future. A future with me, or so it seemed.

That made me happy beyond belief. The idea that the one I loved wanted to continue to spend time with me was a nice thought, especially since I had spent most of my life only with Oyaji. Having someone that truly cared for me was one of the brighter things in my life.

But I digress.

Alas, the peace could not last forever. I heard the doorbell as I was starting up the shower, and heard the door to the bedroom open and close.

As I came out of the shower, I heard talking downstairs. Getting dressed, I moved quickly to find out who it was before my blood ran cold.

I felt an immensely angry ki downstairs and I growled.

Akane...

I heard her familiar battle cry as I rushed out of the bedroom without pulling my shirt on, only wearing my jeans and socks. Reaching the bottom of the steps with a single bound, I turned to glare at the sight before me.

I knew it. Chaos was not one to fight unprovoked, but she didn't have the killer instincts in her normal form that others did. She needed to transform to be a willing fighter. So, being blindsided by Akane, wearing little else than her robe, set me off.

"AKANE! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE!" I screamed, charging my voice with my ki. Akane paused in attacking before turning to me with a glare.

"Claiming my fiance back."

"If you don't leave right now, I'm going to abolish you!"

"Oh yeah, kitty?"

Kitty? What the... OH HELL NO!

As soon as I saw the smirk on Akane's face, I knew it. She had let a bunch of cats in the house. Snarling, I belted Akane.

I only used part of my strength, but it was enough to send her flying outside without hitting any walls or doors.

I could hear the meowing. Using every ounce of my willpower, I walked over to Chaos and lift her into my arms. Turning to the bunch of cats, I moved around all of them and barked the loudest I could that human vocal cords would allow.

It worked partially. Most of the cats ran outside and trampled Akane. Some rushed further into the house and I sighed.

This was going to be a long day...

- - - - - - -

"It's cool now, Sonic. You can come out now." Shadow offered as he looked into the room I was in. Chaos had stayed with me, figuratively licking her wounds. Of course, this mostly consisted of the two of us making out, but I wasn't complaining.

"Great. Thanks, Shadow." I commented, sighing a bit. I was glad the cats were gone, and assault charges were being placed on Akane once again. If she's lucky, she'll only get a few years in prison.

Heh, and she's never been very lucky.

The most fun, though, is wanting to just get away from it all. I just want to grab Chaos and run with her in my arms. Head somewhere only we would know.

Settling down was something I didn't want to do yet, though. There was years of adventure ahead of not only myself, but for Chaos as well. And I just wanted to face it together with her. If just to be together with her no matter what happens.

However, as the reincarnation of Sonic the Hedgehog, it is my was to run as far as I can, as fast as I can, in search of adventure. And I'll drag along Chaos to enjoy the adventure, if I must.

Yawning, I lay back on the bed in the room Chaos and I often shared. I wasn't tired, just bored.

Chaos must have read my mind, since she moved up next to me, laying on her side. She was now dressed in a jean shorts and short green tanktop combo, just the kind of look I like on her. Granted, she'd be sexy in ANYTHING, but the more skin she showed showed how much she liked me. Or, at least, that's what I like to think. Anyways, by now, I was also dressed, now wearing a black t-shirt that read "People that think they know EVERYTHING annoy those of us that do". Chaos had bought me this shirt, and it's my favorite.

Well, it was just so BORING. "Sonic?" I heard, looking to my right at my lover. Looking her in the eyes, I could see how the recent assault on her has affected her. And it felt bad that I hadn't thought to act earlier.

Chaos looked at me, and I assume something showed on my face. "Sonic... No, Ranma... That was not your fault."

"But..."

"IT... WAS... NOT... YOUR... FAULT!" Chaos said to me, face to face, without a moment's hesitation. "Please, Ranma... It's all HER fault, there's nothing else to it."

"Chaos..."

"Please, Ranma... It does hurt ot think about, but I don't blame you. If anyone, I should be to blame. I let that brat into this house..." I listened for a few moments before wrapping my arms around her. Slowly, I let her bury her face into my shoulder, keeping her in my arms.

I could feel her shoulders shudder under myu hold, as the sounds of her sobs reached my ears and tore at my heart. In the past, this would have turned me into a blubbering idiot, but... Chaos had taught me better than that.

She had taught me girls, like her, sometimes just needed to let the tears out. It did no one, men and women alike, any good to bottle their feelings up. This began to shake up my own world, as my whole world was based on the idea that guys don't need to cry. However, I had promised myself that I would be more open for Chaos, no matter the consequences.

"Chaos... Come with me."

"Huh?"

"Let's run away together. Let's escape from it all."

Chaos looked touched, and that made me feel good. She gave me a brief peck on the lips, before literally leaping into my waiting arms, myself having gotten up off the bed when I told her to run away with me.

I rushed out of the house, locking the door once outside and saying goodbye to the others for a while.

I ran and ran, Chaos yelling with glee for me to go faster and faster. My legs blurred underneath me, striking the ground again and again like a atomically charged cheetah's legs. I pushed myself like a bullet, I ran worth all that I was, not caring how fast I was going.

Running, dashing, sprinting, faster, faster, FASTER...

I never knew I could run so fast!

As I ran, my thoughts rushed back to thoughts of Akane.

are you aware of how much you complicate me and are you aware your words suffocate me

First meeting, table to the head.

and don't deny you're talking behind my back to your friends and don't deny one day you'll need me need me

Staying with her, repeated malletings.
