Akane and Ranko once again entered the classroom just in time to hear a new teacher introducing herself, much to their surprise, not that Ranko showed it.
"I have been assigned your homeroom teacher since your normal homeroom teacher has retired, my name is Hinako Ninomiya" said a diminutive teacher, said teacher turned to see Akane and Ranko enter the room and gave them a hard glare before glancing down at her register.
"Ah Akane and Ranko Tendo, your other teachers have told me that due to certain circumstances you have a habit of been late to your lessons, well your other teachers may be okay with this well I'm not…it's your responsibility to get to class on time, if need be set off early but get to my lesson on time" Hinako stated.
"I'm sorry sensei it's just hard to navigate with a wheelchair" Akane replied, receiving a glare from Ranko since she was basically blaming her own crippled cousin for been late when it was actually due to her morning fights.
"Really, I would of thought after ten years you'd know how to get to lesson on time even with the wheel chair and if not set off earlier" Hianko replied firmly "Now take your…seats" Hinako stated only to hesitate when she saw the serpent, she took a small step back as she and the serpent made eye contact.
'What the hell is he doing here?' Hinako gasped within her mind, she had history with the pigtailed demon, the serpent gave a slight nod which Hinako returned nervously before going back to the front of the classroom, Akane once again wheeled Ranko over to the window before heading to her own seat, throughout homeroom Hinako couldn't stop herself from looking at Ranma and barley stopped herself from draining Ranko since it was obvious she wasn't paying attention.
"Ranko I want you to come back here at lunch" Hinako instructed, Ranko turned to Hinako and gave a slight nod in response.
Lunch…
Akane had gone off with Yuka and Sayuri and Ranko was currently wheeling herself to class since Nabiki had once again dumped her to go and 'make' some money, Ranma still in serpent form around her neck. Ranma began to loosen his grip before sliding down her body and back onto the ground before taking on his human form, not seeing any risk since the corridor they were in was empty.
"Ranma?" Ranko questioned, surprised by his sudden action.
"Yeah?" Ranma questioned as he began to push Ranko.
"Why did you change your form?" Ranko asked.
"Let's just Hinako and I have history and besides I'd rather no see you exhaust yourself because of your carless cousins" Ranma responded as he pushed Ranko in the direction of Hinako's classroom.
"History?" Ranko questioned.
"Yeah, we dated a while back, haven't seen her for a couple centuries, but if she's in town a couple old enemies of mine can't be far away" Ranma responded.
"Enemies?" Ranko questioned, not wanting to even imagine what or who Ranma could be referring too.
"Yeah, over the years I've picked up a couple rivals and then there's family feuds and all sorts really" Ranma replied as he reached for the classroom door, opening it before sliding Ranko into the classroom, Hinako had been sat on her chair until they entered, she leapt from her chair, knocking her chair over.
"Hey Hinako" Ranma greeted.
"Ranma" Hinako returned.
"I take it that you wanted to talk to me?" Ranma questioned.
"Yes, I wanted to know why you're here on this plain and why you're with this adolescent" Hinako responded.
"Both questions have the same reason Hinako, she and I made a deal and you know how my species are when it comes to deal, what I want to know is why you're here and if that old incubus acquaintance of yours is in town" Ranma responded.
"Knowing him he won't be too far away" Hinako responded.
"Just my look…just warn the bastard if he comes anywhere near me or the one I am to protect then I will show him no mercy" Ranma stated.
"Like that will worry him, he's already a couple of millennia years old and that's old even for a demon and you and him have already collided on the battle field more than once" Hinako reminded him.
"Yeah and every time we cripple the landscape" Ranma muttered.
"Who are you two talking about?" Ranko asked, hating it when she's out of the loop.
"An old perverted incubus, one far more perverted than your average incubus and he's far more powerful than other incubi because of it and he loves to mess in mortal affairs" Ranma stated.
"Yep no doubt about that, he was the one who turned me into a demon and caused me to constantly revert to this body to become a child, his name is Happosai and if you're lucky you'll never hear his name or see him in your life" Hinako added.
A/N Sorry this took so long and it's so short but my writers block is causing me some problems with this fic.
