Ranma took on his true form once again, the scent of the Amazon's blood from the wound he'd given her was getting stronger by the second, Silver then took on his true form and began to walk into the garden with Ranma.

"No this is my fight…I'm the reason she's here I will not put you guys in danger again" Ranma said to his brother as shampoo entered, gripping her still bleeding shoulder.

"where wolf girl?" shampoo asked upon entering and then saw Ranma and instantly recognized him she then raised her weapons and launched at him, Ranma leapt into the air and landed on the bomborio she had thrusted forward, Ranma the pounced on her pushing her down and pinned her arms to the ground, he showed his fangs, growling deeply. All he would have to do was tare into her neck and he would never have to worry about her again, however, wolves were proud creatures not something to murder something to get rid of it.

"don't do it Ranma you're better than that" wheezed a weak voice, almost a whisper, Ranma's head then turned to see dawn, awake but still weak, Ranma then jumped off her, doing a backward flip in the air as he turned human again and landed on his feet, confusing the Amazon, Ranma then tried something he never had that went against all his principles, everything he believed in, Ranma took in a deep breath and what came out surprised everyone, he began to speak Chinese to the Amazon.

"Shampoo why do you hunt me all I did was bump into you" Ranma said.

"I don't hunt you I hunt that red haired girl and it's Chinese Amazon law if a female outsider defeats and shames an Amazon that Amazon must hunt her to the ends of the earth and kill her" shampoo explained, making more sense in her native tongue.

"But that only applies if they are indeed female" Ranma replied.

"Yes and she is" shampoo replied.

"Well that was me, I was cursed at jusenkyo, fell in the spring of drowned girl" Ranma replied, smirking thinking he'd stopped her in her tracks.

"Prove it" shampoo replied.

"guys get some hot water ready" Ranma called back to the wolves, crystal went and got a kettle, while Ranma leapt into the air and landed in the koi pond, activating his curse, he then pulled himself, or rather herself out of the koi pond and leapt into the air and landed where he was before, crystal then poured the hot water over him and he instantly became male again.

"I need to tell this to Chinese Amazon elders but before I go" shampoo said in Chinese as she leapt in front of Ranma and kissed his cheek before running off, still gripping her bleeding shoulder.

"Hopefully that will be the last we see of her" Ranma said as he turned back to everyone and Akane didn't look too pleased, Akane then wacked him with her mallet.

"You pervert"

As Ranma was launched into the air no one expected Ranma to do what he did next he took on wolf form and positioned himself nose down tail in the air and began to fall back down towards the Tendo dojo at full speed like an approaching missile.

"Looks like Ranma learnt a few new tricks when battling shampoo in china in the trees" silver said as he saw his brother approaching and instantly saw his target and smirked.

Ranma then collided with Akane and knocked her over as his paws struck her shoulders, Akane hit the ground full force and was pinned down by Ranma, he was growling at her baring his fangs, Ranma then dug his claws into her shoulders and his back ones into her knees before retracting them and getting off of her, Akane then tried to get up and found she couldn't without intense pain.

"Ranma what did you do to my little girl" soun exclaimed as began to cry, seeing Akane's multiple small wounds.

Ranma then took on his human form "a little pay back maybe now she'll learn her lesson not to mess with a wolf and after what she's done today she's lucky I don't tare her head off" Ranma replied anger filling his voice as remembered what had happened earlier at the restaurant he was forced to go to. Soun was about to say more but Ranma let a low threatening growl and he instantly shut up, Ranma then walked up to dawn who still laid on the table. "You okay" Ranma asked (still in human form, speaking wolf).

"I'll be fine…just need some rest" she replied.

"okay" Ranma said as he picked her up and took her upstairs and laid her down on the mat in their room.

Ranma then headed down stairs.

That night…

All the wolves except Ranma were in 'bed', silver had gone back to the pack he didn't like being near humans especially when his guard was down, the girls including nadoka were also in bed the only ones up were Ranma, soun and genma.

"I've made my choice I am going to marry dawn not Akane" Ranma said. They were all sitting around the dining table.

"now see here Ranma you made a commitment and you have to honour a commitment, you are engaged to my Akane so you shall marry her not some dog you met in the woods" soun stated.

"she is not a dog" Ranma roared "she is what I am a wolf, a proud beautiful wolf…and anyway I said I would go out with Akane and then decide who I shall marry and I choose dawn" Ranma replied remembering the terms he set with genma about going on his date.

"Ranma you are honour bound to marry Akane and despite what you may think you are human not a wolf" soun retorted "and there will be no more said on the matter" soun then added, Ranma then let out a threatening roar.

"don't you ever call me that" Ranma roared as raised his hand and turned his blunt nails into sharp claws, soun raised his arm on reflex to block the attack only to have it clawed his arm leaving deep wound before storming upstairs soun and genma then rushed to bandage the wound.
