A week Later…

Ranma and Genma were heading towards the Jusenkyo, Ranma for one was relieved that Genma had stopped forcing him to go through the Neko-ken training having been doing it for a year before the demon could contact him, Ranma is now eight years old and during the whole journey since that day he'd been trying to figure out why he had contacted a demon and how and why she kept showing up in his dreams and occasionally striking up conversation with him or showing him visions of ancient China or kingdoms under the water and others on land all ruled by demons.

Jusenkyo…

The duo arrived at Jusenkyo and were greeted by the guide who began telling them of the cursed springs, Ranma tried to pay attention, having picked up the language in the past year, however, Genma didn't listen and called him a girl and challenging him before jumping atop one of the bamboo poles sticking out of the springs, which was the one thing Ranma couldn't resist was a challenge and couldn't stand been called weak.

Ranma then leapt atop one of the other poles and began to fight his father while listening to the guide's protests, Genma then launched at his son with several kicks and punches, Ranma blocked every one of them, he then leapt again and kicked him in the gut, knocking him into one of the springs bellow.

"Oh dear sir fall into Shonmaoniichuan, spring of drowned panda, very tragic story of panda who drowned there two thousand year ago" the guide stated, a large panda then leapt out of the spring and struck a stunned Ranma, knocking him into another nearby spring.

"Oh dear sir fell into Saiyajinnyannichuan, spring of drowned girl" the guide stated as he ran over to the spring, awaiting the 'boy' to resurface, Genma then landed beside him and began pulling signs out of thin air (I'd rather not think about where he hides them) asking about what was going and the guide explained everything.

Meanwhile Within The Spring…

Ranma sat cross-legged at the bottom, looking down at her new body, unsure why she could have her eyes opened under water and see clearly and was unsure why she wasn't gasping for air, a spiritual form of the demon that had been visiting him each and every night since he had established contact with her during his last Neko-ken training.

"I'm sorry Ranma but I could not stop you from been cursed without cursing you" the demon stated.

"Who are you?" Ranma then asked.

"I am Bai Tsa ancient Chinese demon of water" Bai Tsa replied.

"And why have you been contacting me?" Ranma asked.

"Because Ranma I am your mother, your biological mother, I gave you to Nodoka so that you'd be born in the human realm instead of this dimensional prison I and my siblings are in with the exception of one very irritating one" Bai Tsa replied, Ranma fell quiet.

"So you're saying I'm a demon?" Ranma asked.

"Yes, you have inherited my powers, even some I only had the genetic potential to unlock, the only thing now is to see what kind of demon you are" Bai Tsa replied.

"Powers?" Ranma asked.

"Over water and ice, I can sense it within you, I just can't tell what your element is, your own personal element" Bai Tsa replied in a motherly way.

"So let me get this strait, my mother is been held prisoner in another dimension, I'm a demon, my mother isn't my real mother and just struck some sort of deal with you so I could be born here and the man I believe to be my father, the one who put me through hell on earth isn't really my father" Ranma roared.

"Yes" Bai Tsa sighed, sounding like she was about to cry "I'm sorry Ranma I would help you if I could but for now I am trapped in another realm and can only contact you psychically when you sleep and when you are near water or some other form of liquid…like your blood that one time" Bai Tsa replied.

"Can I release you so we can be together or is it impossible?" Ranma asked.

"There are many ways to release me but you are too young to do so…but one day we may be reunited…now listen this spring hasn't just turned you into a girl, you see the girl that drowned here was a master of dark chi magic so now you have her powers and will only need to study it and maybe one day you will obtain the power to release me…but for now go and continue your journey and grow stronger and do not tell that idiot Genma who and what you really are" Bai Tsa said before slowly fading. Ranma then focused on the power within him, like he had before finding the darkness and there he found his demonic powers and so kicked off the ground of the cursed spring.

Outside The Spring…

A geyser erupted from the spring, firing Ranma out of it now a girl, he then landed in front of the panda and the guide who just gawked at him, the geyser then vanished into the water not leaving even a ripple upon the springs surface.

"What was that you said about the spring of drowned girl?" Ranma asked, remembering the last things she heard as she sunk in the cursed springs. The guide then proceeded to tell them of the curses and how they worked before deactivating them and leading them to a village where they could get all the information on jusenkyo they desired, the Amazon village that had lived beside Jusenkyo since it was born and thus would know more about it.

A/N Sorry it tuck so long to update this fic and that it's shorter than the last chapter, as for what demon Ranma is will be revealed in later chapters but I am open to suggestions for what demon he should be.
