Ranma then landed on his feet in front of the school doors before turning and running off, stopping at the gate and turning round briefly to see Ukyou glaring at him with tear stained eyes, she then gripped her giant spatula and hopped onto the window ledge and prepared herself to leap after Ranma. Ranma then turned away and ran, letting out a loud howl as he ran.
Meanwhile…
Crystal was still tending to dawn's wounds "hopefully the moon will heal your wounds faster" crystal said solemnly, the moon seemed to have mystical abilities when it came to wolves especially those with jusenkyo magic running through their veins thanks to a bite of a cursed one. She then heard Ranma's howl, a howl that meant trouble, danger, crystal then stood up in her human form and headed downstairs. She then headed to the porch and looked out and saw Ranma run into the garden and came to a screeching halt, he then looked at his sister.
"What's going on?" crystal asked him concerned; Ranma had always been a danger magnet but ever since coming back to Japan things seemed to get worse by the day.
"Another blast from my past. It's a good thing dawn wasn't at school today, if she had it would have been a blood bath" Ranma explained "now where is that panda" Ranma snarled as his hands became clawed fists, Ranma then stormed past crystal and began sniffing the air and picked up the putrid stench of his 'pop' in seconds, Ranma then stormed into the living area to find him playing shogi with soun, nadoka was sat down cleaning her katana when she noticed Ranma's rage.
"what is it Ranma?" she asked when Ranma past her and went strait for genma, gripping his neck and lifting off the ground and, soun then stood up and grabbed Ranma's arm.
"put your father down Ranma" soun said as he tried to pull Ranma's arm away from genma, it didn't even budge, Ranma then decked him before kicking him in the stomach, sending him flying into a wall, never looking away from genma.
"this is no father of mine, this thing, this human is the cause of all my troubles, he has got me engaged to another human other than that Akane, but Ukyou as well just so he could get a free meal, then when he finds me after 9 years he makes the same mistake and gets me engaged to a stubborn mule, in fact a mule would be better than a human and don't think I don't know why you did it this time, to stay here with out rent or helping out as well as the opportunity to live off the money I would earn from teaching at these stupid, pointless dojo's, just like always I am nothing but a simple meal ticket to you and yet you wonder why I want to live in the wild with my own kind" Ranma roared at genma as he pulled back his left hand and stretched his claws as he prepared to slit Genma's throat. When a soft but firm hand gripped his right shoulder. Ranma then looked round, eyes fuelled by rage, his fangs baring, ready to strike within a seconds notice. But what he saw made his rage begin to fade; it was still there just not as strong.
"Don't Ranma, your better than him and besides it isn't your place to take his life it's mine" nadoka said as her soft motherly expression turned into a hard one that would terrify a hardened criminal, a killers glare. Ranma then released his grip on Genma's neck causing him to fall to the ground on all fours, gripping his neck while gasping for breath, Ranma then lowered his arm.
Nadoka then gripped her katana and raised it to strike genma when Ranma outstretched his right arm, blocking the blade in mid swing. "no it's not his time yet and besides that's too good a death for him, too quick he should suffer like I have, like you have, besides I still need him to cancel the engagements, without putting you, me and our family in danger" Ranma said as he lowered his arm, knowing that if he or nadoka tried breaking off the engagements it would them both and the pack in danger as his fiancés both appeared to be violent.
Nadoka, then looked at Ranma for a moment, surprised by what he'd just said, not just by his sudden defence of genma but by the fact he referred to her as part of the family, while he didn't even see genma as his father anymore yet he still saw her as a mother. "now what are we going to do about Ukyou, the girl the panda got me engaged to" Ranma then said as he looked down at genma.
