Hello everyone! Thank you SO very much for all the positive support! I'm glad so many people enjoy this story and I look forward to writing more chapters for you to enjoy. But first, I want to address a few things that were brought up in a negative review.

First of all, I was informed that Pinkie seemed a little out of character being a pervert. I understand this person's feelings but allow me to defend my choice. I decided to make Pinkie a bisexual pervert in the same style as Katsuragi from Senran Kagura because, to me, Pinkie seems the kind of person that would like either gender just as long as she has fun. And to her, being perverted would just be another outlet for her to amuse herself, which has always been a big part of who Pinkie is.

But if it bothers a lot of people that much, me and my coauthor will tone her down just a smidge. Second of all, this same person was not happy with the current portrayal of Principal Celestia. Now in my defense, Celestia is not the bad guy here.

The whole point of her hating martial arts even though she herself used to be a partitioner, is a crucial plot point to the overall story. It is essentially a mystery that Ranma is determined to figure out, and subtle hints will be dropped in later chapters to help push this sub plot forward.

Plus, she doesn't flat out hate Ranma, but she does want to try to steer him away from being a martial artist, mostly because she thinks it is in his best interest. Also, I fully intend for her and Ranma, and maybe Luna, to have a type of sibling prank rivalry inthis story. Mostly because, Ranma does have a streak of being anti athority, and I just think haing a prank war going on between them will be just plain fun!

Well, now that that is over, PINKIE! Disclaimer please.

Pinkie Pie: You got it boss! Kurenairyu and vegetasragebroke1994 do not own the characters or the franchises associated with this story. If they did, Ranma would have had a better ending and My Little Pony would not have become so political. Now...OPENING SONG!

Ranma looks off into the distance as the sun rises. He jumps off his house and starts running off. As he does, he flashes back to the day he ran away from his father and met Master Asia.

Ranma jogs up to the school and sees Sunset, Twilight, Rainbow, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity and Pinkie waving at him. Ranma smiles and jogs up to them.

Ranma is walking through the halls of Canterlot High. As he walks, Celestia and Luna turn to acknowledge him, Ranma high fives Flash Sentry, and pulls Pinkie away from staring at Zecora. In class, Ranma looks out the window.

Ranma's Daily Life Pt. 2

It has officially been three weeks since Ranma first arrived at Canterlot Kansas. All and all, he was really starting to enjoy his life here. A great master/father figure, a bunch of good friends, two of which were his first students! Yep, life was good.

Speaking of which, we now find Ranma jogging alongside his two protégés, Rainbow Dash and Applejack. School had just let out and they were jogging back to Ranma's house to do two hours' worth of training before the girls had to get back to their own homes. As they arrived at Ranma's house, the two girls unceremoniously dropped the weighted backpacks they were carrying.

"Ok girls," Ranma said as the two in question were catching their breaths. "It's time for your meditation."

Rainbow Dash groaned.

"But sensei! Do we really have too? Just sitting around meditating is SSSOOOOO BORING!" At this, Ranma just shook his head.

"Yeah, I know it's boring but you do want to unlock your ki flow, don't you?" He asked with a grin.

"Come on Rainbow." Applejack said. "Let's get started. Whining about it ain't going to help non."

Rainbow sighed and knelt on the ground and started to meditate. Ranma has had them doing this for the past two weeks. Every day after school, they would meditate for a few minutes and then they would start katas and techniques.

For Rainbow, Ranma has been teaching her the beginning and intermediate katas of the Anything goes style, and for Applejack, he had her focus on not only katas from the Shotokan style of karate but also katas he knew from other styles that focused more on kicks, blocks, and the various stances.

The meditation aspect of their training was to help them unlock their ki. He taught them the same exercises that Master Asia taught him and guided them through what sensation to search for. Truthfully, he himself was anxious to start them on this particular part of their training.

The half hour of meditation was almost over when suddenly, Rainbow and Applejack shot up in a start.

"RANMA!" They shouted. Ranma shot up, bolt right, and ran over to them.

"What?! What?!" He asked. Both girls got up and ran over to him excitedly.

"I think I felt my ki!" They both shouted. Ranma looked at them skeptically.

"Really? Describe what you felt."

Rainbow thought for a second.

"Well, at first I thought it was just the wind blowing on me, then I suddenly felt like my whole body was engulfed in a whirlwind. And, at the same time, I felt this tiny little spark inside me. And as I chased after it, it felt like my whole body just got supercharged! It was like, a surge of energy flowing through me!" She exclaimed enthusiastically.

Ranma just smiled and nodded his head. Then he looked over at Applejack.

"And what did you feel?" He asked her. Applejack thought for a second.

"Well," She began. "Kind of like what Rainbow Dash said, except...It was more like, I could feel the ground encasing me. But, not in a scary way. More like, it was hugging me or something. Then I felt like I could feel every muscle in my body harden like it was a rock or something."

As she finished, Ranma smile broadened.

"Congrats girls! You did it! You finally unlocked your ki." The girls looked at each other and pumped their fists in excitement.

"Now your REAL training can start."

The rest of the day had Ranma teaching the girls how to channel their ki through their bodies. Ranma started them out on the basics of how to use their ki to strengthen their bodies in order to withstand powerful blows, enhance their strength and speed, and increase their jumping abilities.

For the rest of the week, this was how their training went. But, when the weekend came around, Ranma had a very special lesson planned for them. It was 8 o'clock Saturday morning, and we find all seven of the girls walking towards the park with Rainbow Dash and Applejack telling the others about what Ranma had been teaching them.

"Wow! Ranma sure has been teaching you guys a lot huh?" Sunset said in admiration of all the things her two friends were learning from Ranma.

"Yeah! I bet soon, you two will be officially, bonafidilly, awesome kung fu masters!" Pinkie said as she did a bunch of kung fu movie poses while making the matching sounds.

"And thanks for inviting us along to watch you guys." Twilight added. "This'll give me the chance to study the mechanics of ki up close and personal!" Sunset just shook her head at her friends.

"Can you not think about science and studying stuff for more than two seconds Twilight?" Asked the latest member of their little outings, Twilight's pet dog, Spike.

"Is there anything else?" Was Twilight's answer. This, managed to get a chuckle from everyone else.

"By the way," Sunset started to say. "Where is Ranma? Isn't this the spot he told you guys to meet him at?" The gathered friends looked around for the missing martial artist, then heard his familiar voice.

"Over here!" They all looked to where the voice came from and saw Ranma leaning against a tree with his arms crossed. They all ran over to him, Rainbow and Applejack leading the pack.

"Hey sensei! So, what lesson did you have in store for us today!?" Rainbow Dash asked excitedly. Ranma smirked. But before he could answer, he saw Spike in Twilight's arms.

"Awe, and who's this little guy?" He asked. Spike chuckled.

"Hehe, I'm Spike. Nice to meet cha!" Ranma was almost taken aback, but then he remembered the girls telling him about Twilight's talking dog.

"Oh, so you're the famous talking dog that I've heard so much about? Nice to finally meet cha." Ranma said as he scratched Spike behinde his ear.

"Awwww." Spike said as he nuzzled into Ranma's hand. "I like this guy." Was all he could say. Ranma and the girls chuckled at the dog's antics. Ranma then looked back at his students.

"Well, since you two have pretty much got the basics of ki down, I figured that it might be time for me to teach you guys your first technique."

At hearing this, both Rainbow Dash and Applejack got excited. Rainbow was practically jumping up and down, unable to control her excitement.

"AWESOME! What are we going to learn!? Some kind of super cool energy blast? A full body energy shock wave?" Rainbow asked excitedly.

"A super deadly, organ exploding, one hit death punch!?" Chimed in Pinkie.

Ranma just shook his head and chuckled.

"No. Not just yet." At that, Rainbow and Pinkie looked dejected.

"Awwwww." They both said in unison.

"Then, what are we learning?" Applejack asked. Ranma just smirked and walked over to the other side of the clearing they were in.

"Before you guys start learning how to fire your ki as energy projectiles, you first need to learn the next step up from simply chaneling your ki to enhance your strength and speed." Ranma explained like a professor lectureing his class. Rainbow, Applejack, and the others just stared at each other.

"And... what exactly would that be?" Applejack asked. Ranma's smile braodend.

"Today, I'll be teaching you guys your first ki enhanced physical attack." Ranma explained. Now everyone looked really confused.

"Uh...how is that any different than what we've been doing before?" Applejack asked. Ranma stopped walking when he reached a certain spot. He turned to the girls and grinned.

"It be easier if I showed you. NOW MASTER!" Ranma shouted. And then the girls turned to where he was shouting and saw Master Asia, throwing a HUGE BOULDER AT RANMA!

"WHAT THE HELL!?" Rainbow Dash shouted.

"What in tarnation!?" Shouted Applejack.

"INCOMING!" exclaimed Pinkie.

Rarity screamed, Fluttershy gasped and covered her mouth, Twilight and Sunset just called out to Ranma.

"RANMA!" Twilight shouted.

"WATCH OUT!" Sunset finished.

But Ranma wasn't scared. Instead, Ranma crouched low and then jumped towards the incoming boulder. He thrust his fist up and as it connected, the boulder was smashed to pieces.

"SHORYUKEN!" Ranma shouted as he punched the boulder to pieces. The girls all looked spell bound as they saw Ranma once again defy physics.

"Woah!" Sunset said.

"Holy cow!" Said Spike.

"Ok, did everyone else see that?" Applejack asked.

"You mean Ranma jumping 20 feet into the air and punching a boulder into pebbels? Yeah, I saw it. I just don't believe it!" Twilight exclaimed.

Fluttershy was speechless.

"My stars..." was all Rarity could say.

"That. Was. INCREDIBLE!" Pinkie shouted with amazement.

"AwwwwSOME!" Rainbow exclaimed. Ranma landed on the ground, blew off his knuckles and walked back over to the girls. Rainbow and Pinkie ran up to him, both girls bouncing with excitement.

"That was amazing! That boulder was coming right at you, and we were all like, 'AAAHHHH!' And you were like, 'Wah-Ka Pow!' And then it was all like 'Ka-BOOM!'" Pinkie said as she gushed over Ranma's latest show of his martial prowess. As for Rainbow...

"That's what we're going to learn? Awesome!" She said in excitement. Ranma just smiled at the awe inspired faces of his students and friends.

"Yep. That, was the Shoryuken, or 'Soaring Dragon Fist'." Ranma said as he pumped his fist. Rainbow got even more excited.

"Even the name sounds awesome! Let's get started!" Rainbow Dash said.

Rainbow and Applejack sat cross legged as Ranma explained the basics of the technique.

"This technique takes the principles of ki flow that we've been working on all week and applies them in a slightly different way. First, you need to focus on channeling you ki from your core into your legs. As it gathers in your legs it coils like a spring. When you release the ki in your legs, it propels you up in a super powered jump. But, as you jump, you simultaneously channel your ki from your legs, back up through your body and into your attacking fist. This, turns your fist into a nearly indestructible weapon."

Rainbow and Applejack nodded in understanding.

"Now, I want you guys to start by just getting the first part. Once you get comfortable with that, we'll work on channeling your ki into your punch mid jump." Ranma said to his students. The girls nodded and went to start their training.

As they started training, Master Asia walked up to Ranma.

"So, did you have fun scaring your friends half to death?" He asked his young protégé. Ranma just nodded.

"Yeah, little bit." He said with a grin. The rest of the girls walked over to Ranma and Master Asia.

"Ranma, it wasn't very nice of you to scare us like that?" Fluttershy said. Ranma grinned sheepishly and scrached the back of his head.

"Sorry girls. I just couldn't resist." Ranma said.

"Well, just don't do that again, ok?" Sunset said to the pigtailed boy. Ranma nodded.

"I promise." He said. Then he turned his head and saw Twilight writing in her notebook.

"Um, Twilight? What are you doing?" Ranma asked. Twilight looked up.

"Huh?" Was all she asked. "Oh, um, were we just discussing something important?" The others just shook their heads.

"Twilight, I'm beginning to think that you have a problem." Spike said to the bespeckled girl. Ignoring that comment, Twilight looked at Ranma.

"Oh! Ranma, I do have one question," Twilight said to the young martial artist.

"Sure, what's up?" Ranma asked.

"Why is it that you always shout out the name of your techniques when you do them?" She asked. Sunset and the others all gained thoughtful looks on their faces.

"Actually, that's a good question. Why is that?" Sunset asked. Ranma and Master Asia looked at each other.

"You got this Ranma?" Master Asia asked. Ranma looke thoughtfully for a moument and nodded his head.

"Yeah, I got this." Ranma turned to the girls.

"Well, Sunset, you might get this." Ranma started. "Well, it's kind of like how magic users chant the name of their spells."

"Wait." Sunset interrupted. "You mean you kung fu guys shouting out the name of your attacks is basically your version of a magic spell incantation?"

"Pretty much." Ranma answered. The girls, including Rainbow and Applejack, all went wide eyed.

"That, actually makes a lot of sense." Sunset said, as Rainbow and Applejack continued training. After about an hour, Ranma and Master Asia had Rainbow and Applejack work on mixing the technique with their sparring, so as to work on being able to use the technique in actual combat.

About an hour later, Rainbow and Applejack were finally starting to get the hang of the Shoryuken. At seeing their progress, Ranma and Master Asia decided it was time to call it for the day.

"Ok girls that's enough." Ranma called. Rainbow and Applejack sighed. Applejack in relief but Rainbow in disappointment.

"Aw, but I was just starting to get the hang of it!" Rainbow Dash cried. Ranma shook his head.

"Trust me, I get it. But everyone needs to take a break once in a while." As Ranma said this, Pinkie ran over to her two friends and slung her arms around the both of them.

"And besides, now that you guys have finished up, we get to celebrate you two learning another cool martial arts move. Let's get some ICE CREAM!" Pinkie exclaimed.

"I'm down for that." Ranma said. Master Asia put his hand on Ranma's shoulder.

"Go have fun Ranma. Enjoy your youth." Ranma nodded to his master. The group of friends headed off to the local ice cream shop and while they were on their way, they saw a school bus with Japanese writing on the side driving down the ra.

"Hm, any friends of yours Ranma?" Pinkie Pie asked. Ranma shook his head.

"Pinkie, before I came here and met you girls, I had no friends remember?" Ranma said to his crazy friend before taking a closer look at the kanji on the bus.

"It says...'Furikan High'." Ranma read outloud. At the mention of the school's name, Ranibow Dash went pale faced.

"Oh crud." Rainbow said. Ranma looked at her and the rest of his friends and saw them all look very uneasy.

"Um, is something wrong?" He asked, only for Rainbow to grab him and, true to her name, dashed away from the school bus with her friends following right behind them.

"What the heck!" Ranma said as Rainbow Dash let him go and caught her breath.

"Sorry. But I really don't want to put up with who I KNOW is on that bus." Rainbow said as the others caught up with them.

"Yeah, I hear ya. I could smell that guy's cologne all over that bus." Spike said. Ranma looked at the dog with a puzzeled look on his face.

"What guy?" Ranma asked.

"Oh, just Rainbow Dash's stalker." Pinkie answered. Ranma looked even more puzzeled, and concerned.

"Stalker?" Ranma asked.

"Yeah," Fluttershy answered him. "Last year, when Rainbow Dash entered this big Karate tournament, she met this guy in the Kendo division who fell for her. But he made a real jerk of himself by saying that, if she beat him, he'd allow her to date him."

"Sounds like someone's full of himself." Ranma said. Fluttershy and the others nodded.

"So anyway, when Rainbow Dash beat him, he started harassing her every time he and his Kendo team come into town." Fluttershy continued.

"And to make matters worse, he also tries to hit on the rest of us while he harrassess her!" Pinkie said in annoyance. Ranma looked horrified.

"Wow...not really giving the rest of us Japanese guys a good impression, is he?" Ranma said. Twilight walked up to him and patted him on the back.

"It's ok Ranma. We know you're not like that." She said to her friend. Pinkie then runs up to Ranma and hugs him tightly to her bosom.

"Yeah, we know you'd never try to pull something like that with us." Pinkie said as she stroked Ranma's head. Ranma blushed as red as his shirt.

"Uh...thanks Pinkie. But, um...you can let go of me now." He said shakily. Pinkie reluctantly let him go. Sunset chuckled as Ranma tried to recompose himself.

"Uh, if we're going to try to avoid that charlatan, might I suggest a trip to the mall?" Rarity suggested. The others agreed. But just as they started to head on their way, they heard a familiar, and annoying voice.

"AHA! I've found you, my fierce rainbow haired tigress!"

The turned and saw a young Japanese man of about 17 years walking towards them. He had a somewhat handsome face, dark brown hair, brown eyes, and was wearing a blue kimono with matching blue hakama, a bokken tucked into his belt.

"And here I thought I would have to wait till Monday morn to see you and your equally beautiful friends. But fate has smiled upon us once again my fierce tigress, for what else could it be that would draw us together?" He said, only for Rainbow to answer with...

"Dumb luck." And Applejack to add onto it by adding...

"More like bad luck." But the young kendo boy didn't seem to hear them, or chose not to hear them, and kept prattling.

"Now that fate has brought us together, perhaps we could despense with the usual 'tit-for-tat' and finally go on our destined date?" But before Rainbow could answer, Pinkie jumped in.

"Look kendo guy, Rainbow Dash, DOES. NOT. LIKE. YOU! So why don't you get back on your bus and go home and leave us alone already!?"

Ranma was taken slightly aback. He had never seen Pinkie get this mad. But if that shocked him, what was about to happen next was about to REALY tick him off.

"Silence you pink harlot! I am speaking to the fair Rachel, not some dark pink haired witch like yourself!" Pinkie looked hurt at that.

"HEY! Stop picking on my friend you creep!" Rainbow Dash said to the blue wearing jerk.

"You really think insulting Rainbow Dash's friend is a good way to get her to go out with you, you jerk!?" Sunset joined in.

"You know, it's guys like you that make a lot of girls switch to being lesbians and giving up on dating men!" Twilight shot at the kendo jerk. But he didn't look offended at all. In fact, he just kept on talking.

"I do so pity you poor girls. Truly you are all noble to pretend to be friends with this lowly commoner..."

"Now hold it right there, jackass!" Ranma cut off the young kendo man before he could insult his friends even more. And for the first time, he actually noticed Ranma standing there.

"You know, I can't stand guys like you that give guys like me a bad name! First you harass my friend, then you insult my other friend who stood up for her, and now you insult the rest of my friends for being friends with that other friend!? Now you've really gone and pissed me off!" Ranma shouted at the guy who just made the number one spot on his, 'People I'm going to beat to a pulp' list.

"Hark. Who is this? Ah, a fellow countryman. But, why are you wearing such clothing?" He asked. Ranma just sweat dropped.

'Why does everyone keep dissing me on my clothes?'

"Dude, should you really be giving me fashion criticism?" Ranma said, pointing out the fact that his adversary was wearing samurai attire in the middle of modern-day America.

"Ah, but you misunderstand my friend. I do not insult the six beautiful women who stand behind you. I pity them for feeling as though they have to lower themselves to being friends with that pink jester."

"AH!" Pinkie said, once more insulted.

"I would never bring myself to insult the fierce Rainbow Dash, the intelligent Twilight Sparkle, the humble Applejack, the beautiful Rarity, the loyal Sunset, and the Heavenly beauty that is Fluttershy. I would never insult them for I love them!" He proclaimed. Ranma stared at him like he just grew a second head.

"Huh?" Was all he could say.

"Ah, surprised, are you? Yes, my heart is so big that it belongs to all six of these angels of Heaven! The other one I still believe is some sort of devil in human skin."

"OK, I've heard just about enough of your BS pal." Ranma said walking up to the young man.

"You still don't understand, do you? I mean only to free these six beauties from the clutches of that demon so they can take their rightful place as the harem of my heart!" And with that, Ranma had heard enough and punched the blue wearing jerk off in the face.

"Sheesh, first you think you're some wannabe playboy, Shakespearian samurai, and now you think you're the lead in a harem manga?" Ranma asked as he cracked his knuckles.

"Oh please!" Pinkie exclaimed. "This guy could never be the lead character of anything! He couldn't even pass as the lead in a cheap, low budget hentai!" At that, Ranma and the others burst out laughing!

"That's rich Pinkie! HA HA HA!" Ranma said. Even Rarity couldn't hold back her laughter.

"Indeed. I actually feel sorry for the people on that bus who have to put up with his antics. Hmhmhmph!"

The kendo creep got up and glared at Ranma.

"Now I understand." He started to say.

"Do you?" Ranma asked.

"Yes. You're that pink devil's accomplice and you've come to spirit my fair beauties away!" He said, his delusions of grandeur back in full swing. He drew his wooden sword and pointed it at Ranma.

"Well fine! To save the Harem of my heart, I shall vanquish thee." Ranma just looked at the delusional idiot and sighed.

"Fine. If you wanna fight, I'll give you one." He said, getting into a fighting stance.

"Very well. But allow us to do this honorably. I am Tatewaki Kuno, the Blue Thunder of Furikan High, and rising star of the kendo world!" He proclaimed. Ranma and the girls just shook their heads.

"Ok, fine. I'm Ranma, no last name." He began, but the recently named Tatewaki Kuno interupted with a puzzled look on his face.

"What do you mean no last name? If this is to be an honorable duel, we both must know the others family name." He said. Ranma just growled.

"I have no family name. I'm just Ranma. Friend to these SEVEN girls!" Ranma said, putting emphasis on the word seven.

"And he's also Rainbow and Applejack's master!" Pinkie added in.

"NANI!?" Kuno exclaimed at hearing these words.

"M-m-master!? You mean he owns these two women as his own!?" Kuno shouted. Ranma and the others did a double take.

"What!? NO! I'm no slave trader, I'm their martial arts master that's all. PINKIE!" Ranma shouted in defense and then at his big mouthed friend. Pinkie shrugged and looked sheepishly at Ranma and her friends.

"Hehe. Sorry. How was I supposed to know he'd take it the wrong way?" She tried to defend herself.

"Oh sure, there's no way that the crazy moron in the kendo outfit would take what you said the wrong way." Rainbow Dash said sarcastically. While this was going on, Kuno was seething mad.

"Very well villain. I thought you were just a fellow countryman who misunderstood my noble intentions. But now I see you're just a common mongrel who takes advantage of women! Well, I say, NEY VILLAIN! I STRIKE!"

And with that, Kuno came at Ranma with a fast barrage of blows from his sword. But to Ranma, he was moving in slow motion. Ranma waited for just the right moment, and when it came, he caught Kuno's sword in between his hands, pulled him in close and side kicked Kuno hard in the stomach. The poor dummy had all his air knocked out of his lungs and passed out right on the spot. Ranma looked at his prone foe and tossed Kuno's boken to the side.

"So... We still on for the mall?" Was all he said. The girls looked between Ranma and Kuno, and then nodded. Big o'l smiles plastered on their faces. Pinkie ran up to Ranma, hugged him tightly and kissed his cheeks.

"My hero!"

Once again, all Ranma could do... was blush.

At the mall, Ranma and the girls were wondering around different stores, trying to forget their run in with Kuno. At the moment, Sunset had dragged Ranma and the others into the GameStop to check out the latest games.

"Wow. I didn't know girls were into video games." Ranma said to Sunset.

"Hmph. You'd be surprised. I'm one of the few." Sunset said to him. She went back to looking and gave a triumphant cry.

"Found it!" She then picked up the game she had been looking for, 'Metroid Dread: Collector's Edition'.

"See anything you like Ranma?" She asked the pigtailed martial artist. Ranma looked around, and found something that caught his eye.

"Tekken huh? I should have known." She said as they headed to the counter. After they left, it was Rarity's turn to shop. She grabbed Ranma by the arm and dragged him into the clothing store, the others following behind them.

"Why do I have to come along?" Ranma whined.

"Because Ranma, I'm determined to get you to dress like a regular, modern teenage high schooler, even if it kills me!" Rarity said to Ranma. He just glared at her.

"That can be arranged, you spoiled little..." He mumbled under his breath. But he didn't get a chance to finish because Rarity got right in his face.

"Who are you calling spoiled you little Kung Fu nutcase?" Rarity shot back at him. Ranma just looked at her.

"Pull out your little pocket mirror and take a look in it." He answered. Rarity just glared at him.

"Well, if that's the way you want to play it." Rarity reached into her purse and pulled out a battle of water, and splashed Ranma.

"Ahhhh!" Ranma screamed as he turned into a she. Ranma looked at herself, then at Rarity.

"Oh, you dirty little..." Ranma started to say. Rarity just smirked at him.

"Well, since you're a girl now," Rarity then pulled out a very, VERY, girly dress and held it out to Ranma.

"Why don't you try this on for size?" She said in a sadistic tone of voice. Ranma started backing away.

"Uh uh. Uh uh. No way! I am not putting that stupid thing on!" Ranma said as she backed away. But then Pinkie showed up, with a pair of booty shorts and a crop top in her hands.

"How about trying this on for size then!" She said as she pushed the clothes into her face. Ranma just blenched.

"You gotta be kidding me!?" Ranma cried out. "There is no way in heck I'm putting on any of that girly stuff."

But as she tried to back away, Rarity and Pinkie started to close in on her. Ranma gulped. He knew that look they had in their eyes. It was a look of pure determination.

"Oh, you are going to put on what we tell you too. Whether you like it or not." Rarity said as she and Pinkie backed Ranma into a corner. Ranma looked around for an escape. Seeing no other choice, Ranma jumped and flipped over them. As soon as she touched ground, she ran out of the store.

"Not even on my death bed you crazy girls!" Ranma said as she made a break for it. Rarity and Pinkie just stared at Ranma as she ran.

"Oh, why that little acrobat." Rarity said growling.

"After that aqua-transexual!" Pinkie yelled as they chased after Ranma.

Ranma ran through the mall, looking for anyplace she could find some hot water to change back into a dude. She felt the urge to turn her head, and when she did, she saw Rarity and Pinkie hot on her trail. With a yelp, Ranma dashed this way and that, going from one store to another in a desperate attempt to throw off his pursuers.

As she kept running she heard a voice call out to her.

"Psst! Ranma! Over here!" She turned and saw Fluttershy waving her over into another store. Knowing that she could trust her, Ranma dashed into the store Fluttershy was in. As Rarity and Pinkie ran past the store, Ranma turned to her pink haired friend.

"Thanks Fluttershy. I owe ya one." She said to her friend. Fluttershy just smiled.

"You're welcome Ranma." She then pulled out a bottle of water. "I got you some hot water too." Ranma smiled at her.

"Fluttershy, believe me, one day, you are going to make some lucky guy a very good wife." Fluttershy blushed at that as Ranma reached for the bottle of water.

"AHA! I've found you my lovely Fluttershy!" Came an all too familiar voice. They turned and saw Kuno at the door way.

"Hark, and who is his other lovely young woman with you? Another noble young woman?"

Ranma just slapped her head in dismay.

"Oh great, now he's back." Kuno just slicked his hair back and tried to look dashing. And failing miserably at it.

"Well, if my fair Fluttershy seeks to add yet another girl to my harem, then who am I to..." Before he could finish, Ranma's foot found its way into his crotch. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUGGGGGHHH!"

"Get this through your thick-ass skull: I belong to no harem, jackass. Come on Fluttershy." Ranma said as he took Fluttershy's hand and led her out of the store. Kuno laid down on the floor, clutching his balls in pain.

Once they were outside, Ranma took the hot water bottle and dumped it on her head. Now once more a man, Ranma pulled Fluttershy into a hug.

"Thanks Fluttershy." He said. Fluttershy blushed as she returned Ranma's hug.

"Aw, you turned him back already? But I wanted to play dress up with sexy Ranko-chan!" They heard Pinkie's voice and turned to see her and Rarity catching their breaths as they looked at the two.

"Sorry girls. I'm back to being a man." Ranma said with a grin. Rarity was about to reply when they all heard a grumbling sound from Ranma's stomach. He scratched his head sheepishly.

"Heh heh heh. I guess I'm a little hungry." Ranma said. Fluttershy giggled, Rarity sighed and Pinkie just lauged.

"Yeah. I'm hungry too. Let's eat!" Pinkie cheered. And with that, the four friends went to the food court where they met up with Sunset, Twilight, Rainbow and Applejack. After much debate, they all decided on pizza. Except for Rarity, she stuck to having a salad.

"Really? That creep Kuno actually tried to hit on you!?" Sunset asked Ranma. Trying desperately to hold back her laughter. Ranma just glared at her. Rainbow on the other hand...

"BWAAAA HA HAH HA HA HA! Oh man! I am so sorry for you, but, he heh, you getting hit on by that creep is just too funny! Ha ha ha!" Rainbow just couldn't help herself. Ranma glared at her too.

"Yeah yeah. Laugh it up little miss gay pride hair." Ranma shot back. Rainbow glared back at him while Applejack chuckled.

"Sorry sugar cube, but you had that one coming." She said to her friend. Rainbow shot her a glance then just sighed and went back to eating her pizza.

"But still, how could that guy take one look at us and think I was looking for more girls for him?" Fluttershy asked. Pinkie wrapped an arm around her fellow pinkett.

"Don't worry about it. He's just a cook. And not even the fun kind of cook, but a real stupid head." Pinkie said. Twilight nodded.

"I agree. I wonder just how many times he was dropped on his head growing up?" She asked no one in particular. Just then, they all here a very, unpleasantly familiar voice.

"There you are my lovely's!" And sure enough, there was Kuno. Back again. The group of friends face palmed.

"This guy just doesn't know when to take a hint, does he?" Applejack said. Fluttershy shook her head.

"No, he doesn't." As she said this, Ranma got up and went over to the idiot.

"Can't you get it through your thick head that these girls don't like you?" Ranma said. But Kuno ignored him.

"Ney villain! It's clear to me that these women and the red haired, pig tailed girl are under your spell. Once I have defeated you, foul sorcerer, I'm sure they will come to their senses and... YEOWCH!" He never got the chance to finish, because Spike had just bit him on the butt.

Ranma and the girls, and the rest of the people in the food court, burst out laughing at the sight. Kuno was jumping around trying to shake Spike off is arse. Eventually, Spike finally let go and spat like he was trying to get something horrible out of his mouth.

"Disgusting." Spike said, looking at the fourth wall camera. He then ran over to Ranma and jumped into his arms.

"Ha ha. Good boy Spike." Ranma said, scratching the back of Spike's head. Kuno got up and glared daggers at Ranma and Spike. He pulled out his sword.

"How, DARE YOU!" Kuno said in anger. "I STRIKE!"

He charged at Ranma and tried to cut him down. Ranma dodged the strikes, but looked down and saw that his shirt had a few cuts on it.

'Air pressure blades?' Ranma thought to himself.

"Huh. I guess you do have a few tricks up your sleeves, huh kendo boy?" Ranma decided to take this fight a little more seriously. Kuno charged at Ranma again, Ranma was about to dodge when he realized that if he did, Kuno's wind blades might hurt someone. So, Ranma charged in, and countered Kuno's air blades with air blades of his own. With a swipe of his hand, Ranma sent a gust of wind that sliced through Kuno's wind blade and sent him flying into a wall on the other side of food court.

The whole court stared in amazement at what just happened. Kuno tried to get up, but Ranma rushed towards him and slams his fist into Kuno's solar plexus. Once more, the kendo nut was knocked unconscious. As Kuno slumped down, security guards came down to see what was going on. Ranma just handed the unconscious samurai to them.

"Here ya go guys. Take this guy and lock him up." Ranma said. The guards looked at each other, shrugged, and took Kuno off his hands. As they carted him away, Ranma looked at the crowd of people looking at him.

"Alright, show's over. Everybody back to your grub." Ranma said as he went back to the table with the girls. The girls were all shocked, and Rainbow's mouth was hanging open.

"What was that!?" She asked Ranma. Ranma looked at her.

"It was just a vacuum wave attack. It wasn't that special." Ranma said to her. Rainbow looked at him pleadingly.

"Will you teach it to me? Please!?" She begged him, her eyes wide and full of stars. Ranma looked sheepishly at her, and gulped.

"Uh...Sure. I'll teach you as soon as you get better at your ki control." Rainbow hugged Ranma tightly.

"Thank you, sensei!" She said to him. And poor Ranma, he was blushing up a storm.

The weekend had finally come to an end. Ranma gave Rainbow and Applejack Sunday off so they could relax. Now they were on their way to school. Ranma was walking on his hands on the fence post again while Rainbow and Applejack where once more jogging with their weighted backpacks on. But as they came within distance of the school, they saw Sunset, Twilight, Rarity, Pinkie, and Fluttershy running towards them, looks of sheer panic on their faces.

"Ranma! Rainbow! Applejack! HELP!" They all shouted. Rainbow and Applejack ditched their backpacks as Ranma jumped off the fence. They ran over to them.

"Girls! Are you alright? What's wrong?" Ranma asked. But before they could answer, he heard a very familiar voice.

"Come back my lovelies! I only wish to shower you with my love!" Kuno cried as he chased after the girls. Ranma and the others face palmed.

"Oh no, not this moron again!" Ranma said. Rainbow Dash nodded sadly.

"I'm afraid so. This guy is too dumb to just take a hint and leave us alone." Ranma and Rainbow just marched right into Kuno's path.

"Ok buddy, that's far enough." Ranma said as Kuno screeched to a halt.

"Oh ho! So, the foul sorcerer still stands in my way. I..." Before he could finish, Rainbow held up her hand.

"Let me stop you there." And with that, she kicked Kuno right in the balls. As he hunched over, Rainbow punched him right in the jaw.

"Shoryuken!" She cried as she uppercut Kuno straight into a nearby tree. Ranma just clapped her on the shoulder.

"That's my girl." He said with pride. Rainbow blushed as Pinkie came up behind them and hugged the both of them by the neck.

"That. Was. AMAZING! You one hit KOed that jerk into next week! Rainbow Dash, you are just so cool." Pinkie said as she hugged Rainbow. Rainbow looked slightly embarrassed.

"Actually, it was a two hit KO Pinkie. But, thanks for the complement."

"And you're even cooler Ranma for teaching her how to be even more awesome than she already was." Pinkie said as she hugged Ranma close and kissed his cheek. He blushed scarlet.

"Hehe. Aw, it was nothing." Ranma said as he and the girls headed into the school.

The group of friends then headed into the school, hoping against hope to just forget about the kendo idiot Kuno and enjoy school. The day went by relatively smoothly, but poor Ranma was pulling his hair out from frustration.

'How do people go through eight hours of this everyday?' Ranma asked himself. Lunch was just around the bin, and he couldn't wait to have a reprieve from all the mindless nonsense. As yet another class ended, Ranma was on his way to his locker to get his books for his next class. But just as he was retrieving his books, he heard someone scream.

"What the heck!?" He said as he turned to the source of the scream. He saw one of his classmates, a girl named Trixie, running and screaming from, something.

"Whoa, whoa!" Ranma said as he stopped her. "What's going on?" Trixie looked to Ranma.

"There's some weirdo swinging a sword around!" She said before she ran off down the hall. Ranma grew pale.

"A sword swinging weirdo? Oh no. It couldn't be." But then he slumped his shoulders. "But knowing my luck...it is."

Ranma took in a deep breath, and headed towards where Trixie came from, all the while dodging people running and screaming from the very spot he was heading towards. And then he heard the voice he was dreading.

"Out of the way you western barbarians! Where are the women of my heart's desire? Where are my dear Twilight, Sunset, Rarity, Fluttershy, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash?" Cried out Kuno as he swung his bokken at anyone who stood in his way. Ranma pinched the bridge of his nose and heaved a big sigh.

"Here we go again." He said as he marched over to Kuno.

"Ok buddy, that's enough." Ranma said as he stood in Kuno's way. Kuno looked at Ranma and scowled.

"Ah, so the foul sorcerer dares to stand in my way yet again, eh?" Kuno said as he brought his sword to bare on his opponent.

"Will you please stop calling me a sorcerer will you!?" Ranma shouted. He was about to charge forward and strike, but then he remembered his promise to Principle Celestia not to fight on school grounds.

"Look, I'd love to kick your butt for the fourth time, but we're on school grounds, so could you please just leave and we can settle this after school. OK?" Kuno just chuckled.

"Hahahaha! As if I would bow down to a fool like you." Kuno said. Ranma looked confused.

"Who's the fool here?" Ranma retorted.

"It's clearly obvious that you're just afraid to face me again. Well nay villain! I will give you no quarter! I STRIKE!" Kuno said as he charged at Ranma. Ranma dodged the oncoming attack and had to restrain himself from striking out at his attacker.

Strike after strike came at Ranma. He dodged with the greatest of easy, but cursed his bad luck that he couldn't strike back at his enemy. As he kept dodging, he inadvertently ended up backing up right into Celestia's offie door.

"Stand your ground and fight you foul cur!" Kuno said as he kept swinging like a mad man. "Are you that afraid to face me head on?" Ranma just leaned against the door to Celestia's office as he looked at the samurai nut.

"Look dude, I could knock you out six ways till next Sunday, but I promised I wouldn't get into any fights while at school. So, can we please just..." Ranma didn't get a chance to finish, because at that moment, the door to Celestia's office opened up and Ranma nearly fell through the door way.

"What is going on here?" Celestia said as she stepped out of her office. Upon seeing Kuno, her expression soured.

"Oh no. Not you again!" She said in exasperation. Kuno didn't even look fazed.

"Out of my way you overinflated succubus sow! I have no time to deal with you at the moment. My current quarrel is with this disgraceful Chinaman wanna be." Kuno said. Celestia and Ranma both growled at that. Clesetia was seeing red.

'I'd hate to do this. But I have no choice. This BASTARD has gone TOO FAR!'

"Ranma. Remember how I said you were not to fight on school grounds?" She asked Ranma. He looked at her with a curious look.

"Yeah. That's why I'm not fighting back. No matter how much I want to." He said to her as Kuno was gearing up for another swing.

"Well, just this once, you can forget it." She said. Ranma grabbed Kuno's sword mid swing.

"Hold on there dude." Ranma said. "What did you just say?" Celestia took a deep breath and looked at Ranma.

"I said, just this once, I'm giving you permission to fight on school grounds. Just this ONCE. Now, will you please get that sword swinging psychopath OUT OF MY SCHOOL!" She shouted. Ranma grinned like a mad man.

"I hear and I obey." Ranma said, then looked at Kuno. "Bud," Ranma then used his forearm to break Kuno's sword in half. "You're in trouble." Kuno looked at his broken sword, then tossed it away and pulled out another one.

"Seriously, how many of those things do you have dude?" Ranma asked. Kuno didn't even bother to answer as he attacked Ranma again. Ranma just simply jumped over Kuno and landed on the opposite side of the hallway. Kuno turned and saw Ranma smirking confidently at his would-be foe. Kuno charged at Ranma again, only this time Ranma sliped under Kuno's attack, grabbed him by the sleeves of his kimono, and Judo threw him right out the window.

"AAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" Kuno screamed as he fell.

"Uh... sorry about the window." Was all Ranma said as Celestia ran towards the window that Ranma threw Kuno out of. As she reached the window, she heard a splash. She looked out the window and saw that Kuno had landed in a pool.

"How did you know there was the school pool was down there?" Celestia asked Ranma. In response, Ranma just shrugged his shoulders.

"I didn't."

Celestia pinched the bridge of her nose.

"Of course you didn't." She said. Ranma scratched the back of his head sheepishly.

"I really am sorry about the window. I swear I'll fix it myself." Ranma said to Celestia. She heaved a big sigh.

"Don't worry about it Ranma, my insurance will cover it." She told him as she walked back to her office. Ranm tilted his head.

"Your insurance covers sword swinging samurai wannabes?" He asked. Celestia sighed again as she smiled at Ranma.

"Yeah well, when your school is ground zero for a bunch of magical catastrophes, they tend to add a few things to the coverage." She replied. Ranma sighed and shrugged. Celestia turned to Ranma before she opened the door to her office.

"Just remember Ranma. That was a one-time thing. As long as that idiot is not on school grounds, I expect you to continue abiding by the rules." Ranma just smiled and gave a casual two fingered salute.

"Aye aye captain." Ranma said as he walked off to his next class. Celestia smiled as she entered her office. Meanwhile, Kuno was just pulling himself out of the pool, his mood even more sour than before.

"Curse that fiend. And curse that pompous, over inflated woman! Well, they haven't seen the last of Tatewaki Kuno!" He said as he pulled himself to his feet. He was about to head back into the school when a lead pipe fell from the sky and nailed him right on top of his thick skull. Kuno fell to the ground, once more falling into blissful unconsciousness. Up above, Pinkie was leaning out of a window, looking down at Kuno.

"Oops. I guess I shouldn't have been tossing lead pipes out the window." Pinkie said as she looked at the camera and wiggled her eyebrows.

Ending Song: Romantic Ageru Yo. (Sung By Sunset Shimmer)

Be as free as you can be, a childlike love of fantasy,
The world is a mystery for you and me.

Sunset is looking out her window, smiling.

A miracle, an adventure too, a single wish waits for you,
The beating of your heart will see you through.

Scene cuts to Ranma sitting on a cliff looking out over the horizon.

When you think you can't go on, give it another try,
The power of your youth is strong, and as big as the sky.

Fluttershy is playing with some animals, Rainbow is tuning her guitar, and Rarity is flipping through a magazine.

Search all over the valley, the mountains and you'll see...believing in yourself sets you free!

Applejack is working on her farm, Twilight is messing with some chemicals, and Pinkie is setting up a party.

Come on, I'll give you romance!
Come on, I'll give you paradise!

Scene cuts to a picture of Ranma and the girls all together. Scene pans out to show Ranma looking at the picture as he slowly smiles.

Liberate the "you" that you keep inside.
Come on, I'll give you romance!
Come on, I'll give you paradise!

Ranma walks through the city, wondering aimlessly.

Make your dreams come true; you'll see fantasy...magic can happen to you!

Ranam looks up and sees the girls waving at him. He smiles and jogs up to them as the girls rush over to him. As the song ends, the camera pans up and eight shooting stars streak across the sky.
