Opening by Neostardustdragin101
The wind blows wildly through a meadow going through a small town before revealing two figures standing atop of a telephone poll back to back. These were Naruto and Ranma both flashed grins as they stuck out a peace sign.
taikutsu na madobe ni fukikomu kaze ni
kao wo shikameta no wa terekusasa no uragaeshi
Naruto and Ranma rush out the Tendo dojo putting on their back packs with a piece of toast in their mouths.
aimai ni unazuku tenohira no kyou
egaite'ru jibun wa sukoshi oogesa de
nanika kawarisou na ki ga shite iru yo
kokoro ni yobikakeru kimi no sei da ne
Genma in panda form comes out yelling at the two only to be swatted away by a fox tail.
kumorizora nozoita yokan
te wo nobasou itsu yori mo chikarazuyoi yuuki de
As the walk down the sidewalk Akane and Nabiki catch up to them Ranma and Akane sneering at each other while Nabaki wraps her arm around Naruto who rolls his eyes, Shampoo hiding behind a tree narrows her eyes at this
hikari mo kage mo mada tookute sore de mo bokura wa
yasashisa no riyuu ga shiritai
ima wa dare no namae de mo nai kagayaki no kanata e
zenbu kako ni naru mae ni mitsuke ni ikou
Kuno swooned over Akane as she walked by while Ryoga simply shook his head while trying not to swoon himself.
kono sekai wa marude tayorinai ne to
usobuku boku no me wo karakau you ni
kimi ga mite'ru sora wa naniiro darou?
kitto aoku takaku kiyoraka na hazu
Naruto and Ranma train together when suddenly the boys falls into the water jumping out in his female form narrowing her eyes at Naruto who was in his kitsune form.
kotoba no mama ja modokashikute dakara nando de mo
bukiyou ni kasanete shimau ne
yorokobi mo kanashimi mo koko de imi ga umareru koto
futari kizukihajimete'ru sono riyuu mo
Happosai sneaks through the shadows smirking as he sees a dresser opening it to find Kushina's panties. Suddenly he feels a wave of killing intent and sees Kushina standing behind him.
kotoba no mama ja modokashikute
nando de mo bukiyou ni kasanete shimau yo
koe ni naranai setsunasa goto
kono omoi, kimi ni todoke
Naruto, Ranma, Ryoga, Shampoo, Kuno, and Ukyo stand together in front of the dojo running out at the shadowed figures jumping at them one of them being a green haired girl with lightning around her
hikari mo kage mo mada tookute sore de mo bokura wa
yasashisa no riyuu ga shiritai
Naruto and Ranma along with Ryoga began beating down any and all enemies that came their way while Shampoo jumped into the unleashing a flurry of kicks with Ukiyo swinging her spatula blowing away her foes.
ima wa dare no namae de mo nai kagayaki no kanata e
zenbu kako ni naru mae ni mitsuke ni ikou
Naruto lands back on the ground with Ranma both smiling as they fist bump suddenly Nabiki jumps on Naruto's back kissing his cheek while Akane wraps her arm around Ranma both blushing.
kimi ga kako ni naru mae ni mitsukeru kara
The gang looks towards the horizon giving a thumbs up
(Mountain ranges of Japan)
It had been a few days since the incident with Akane finding out that Ryoga was P-Chan and since then, Naruto and Ranma had high tailed it out of town for a bit with Kushina for some training in the mountain ranges of Japan with Cologne assisting her, while Shampoo was there to support them with a sparring partner, and to help with cooking.
Currently, Naruto was being patched up by Shampoo after a spar with Cologne.
"Damn old ghoul and her cheap shots" Naruto grumbled out, while Shampoo applied some ointment to his back.
"You didn't really think that Tekkai would work on me, did you son in law? I have years of knowledge, and know how to get past techniques like that" Cologne said with a chuckle.
"Hey, you poked me in the eyes with your cane, you old crone! Yowch!" Naruto was yelling, before Cologne whacked him on the head with her cane.
"If you were as capable as your mother, then you would be able to activate your Tekkai instantly to block, boy" Cologne said, as she shook her head as she sat down and took out her pipe.
"Yea, well, I'm not as good as her, as you can obviously see" Naruto grumbled, as he gestured to himself.
"Not yet. You have her spirit, which means you will probably out do her someday" Cologne said with a firm tone.
"It's true! Naruto has plenty of potential!" Shampoo said as she smiled widely, as she finished treating Naruto's wounds.
Naruto blinked at this, before he smiled at this.
"And you have her hard head too. But I'm sure you will get through my training, eventually" Cologne said with a condescending tone and a teasing smirk at him.
Naruto face planted at this, while the elder took a puff of her pipe.
"Ok son in law, let's go check on Ranma and your mother, and see how he's doing. Then we can head back to camp and eat" Cologne said, as she stood up and walked away.
"Good, cause I'm starving," Naruto said as he stood up and walked off.
"Oh, Shampoo making you ramen for dinner" Shampoo said as she smiled and followed after them.
Naruto stopped at this and slightly drooled at this, before he quickly composed himself and shook his head rapidly.
Shampoo smiled at this small victory, mentally laughing at the fact she has something over Nabiki and Lum with her cooking skills.
They all soon arrived at another field, where they saw….
"I said more flexibly, damn it!" Kushina yelled out, as she suddenly appeared in front of Ranma and went to punch him, but the young teen blocked her punch.
"Damn it auntie, I said I can't move as fast as you!" Ranma yelled, as he jumped away from Kushina, as her hair moved to grab him.
"Oh, I remember this. She did the same thing to me when I learned Kami-e," Naruto said, as he shuddered at the memories.
"It's not about speed, brat! It's about being flexible!" Kushina yelled, as Ranma landed on the ground nearby in front of her.
"Oi, I'm plenty flexible!" Ranma yelled, as he did some stretches for emphasis.
"Yea, but you can't squeeze your way out of say, one of Lum's hugs like the brat can, can you?" Kushina asked, as she jerked a thumb at Naruto over her shoulder.
Oi, oi, oi!" Naruto said, as his eyebrow twitched at his mother, bringing up him using Kami-e to escape Lum's hugs.
"I've never had that problem. I don't attract crazies" Ranma said with a snicker.
"Oh, did Kodachi get out of the nut house? I'll be sure to let her know that you're interested" Naruto said, as he gave Ranma a glare that said he wasn't kidding.
"Oh, come on! That's not cool! She makes Lum look tame!" Ranma yelled, as he jumped to his feet in a panic.
"Who is Kodachi?" Shampoo asked curiously.
"She's Kuno's sister, who has purple hair, attacks with a ribbon, oh and has a laugh that could bend steel" Naruto said nonchalantly, while Ranma shuddered.
"Is she love rival?" Shampoo asked with a small scowl, while bringing out her mallets.
"No, thank kami. I've never met her, just heard the horror stories from Ranma" Naruto said, as he shook his head.
"Oh jeez. I think I've heard her laugh while on the way to the restaurant. I thought that it was a peacock getting its neck snapped" Kushina said, as she winced at the memory.
Naruto and Ranma snorted at this, as that was an apt description of Kodachi's laugh, seeing as they had heard her laugh. Even if Naruto had never met her before, her laugh carried for blocks.
"Ok you lot, time to head back to camp for supper and to rest up for the night" Cologne said, getting their attention.
"Great, as I'm starving. What are we having?" Ranma asked with a smile, as they all started walking back towards their camp.
"Shampoo said that she's making some ramen," Naruto said as he smiled a little.
"Again? It's been nothing but ramen since we got here!" Ranma groaned, as he looked up at the sky.
"It future husband's favorite! You no like, you can go without. More for Naruto!" Shampoo yelled at Ranma
"She's a keeper, eh brat?" Kushina whispered to her son with a teasing smirk, as they walked.
Naruto sputtered at this, as he blushed and looked away from his mother, making her laugh loudly.
Unseen to them, they were being watched from the trees, by what looked like red eyes with three tomes in a triangle shape.
(Later)
Later back at camp, everyone was waiting as Shampoo was cooking dinner, and as they were waiting they were talking.
"So what exactly happened with Akane, that made you two want to leave in such a hurry anyway?" Kushina asked the two teens boys, as they both drank some water.
Which caused them both to go wide eyed, and spat out their water in surprise.
"Uhhhhh" Ranma said as he started to lightly sweat at this, as Kushina was one of the few who didn't know about Ryoga and the whole P-Chan situation.
"Well, I figured that Ranma and her could use some time apart, ya know, so they don't end up like me and Lum" Naruto said with a nervous chuckle, as he gave Ranma a look that screamed 'back me up, you idiot.'
"Yeah! Exactly! Nothing strange about that, right?" Ranma asked with a nervous chuckle, as Kushina and Cologne looked at them with piercing looks.
"Oh well. That, uh, sounds like the, uh, truth" Kushina said with heavy sarcasm.
"I agree. I recall you two whispering something about someone named Ryoga, while we were climbing up the mountain path. Does that have anything to do with it?" Cologne asked, as she narrowed her eyes at the two teens.
"What this about pig boy?" Shampoo asked, as she approached with a steaming pot of ramen, which she placed in between them all, easily thanks to her strength.
Kushina had picked up a bowl and was about to scoop up some ramen into it, when she stopped. "Eh?" she asked, as she looked at Shampoo curiously.
"Eternal lost boy who turns into little pig, so he can pretend he pet of Akane. Very strange, great grandmother?" Shampoo asked, as she looked at Cologne, as she handed her a bowl of ramen.
Kushina's eyes widened in realization, as she thought about the pet pig that Alane had been seen carrying around, and how she had mentioned that Ranma didn't like him and had seemed jealous of said pet.
"Move quickly and quietly, so that she doesn't notice," Naruto whispered, as he and Ranma edged away from Kushina.
"No, I want to catch splash damage" Ranma whispered as they moved.
"FREEZE!" Kushina bellowed out loudly, her voice echoing in the forest, causing the wildlife to book it from the area.
Naruto and Ranma quickly froze, as Kushina approached them, while a blood red aura covered her, causing her to look demonic.
"You both have thirty seconds to give me an explanation, or they will never find your bodies" Kushina growled, as her aura grew bigger.
Shampoo meanwhile, was hiding behind Cologne at this, a terrified look on her face.
"It would seem that Lady Kushina's battle aura is still in tip top shape, even if she's a civilian" Shampoo thought, as she watched this over Cologne's shoulder.
Moments later, Naruto and Ranma had explained the situation with Ryoga and Akane to Kushina, who's aura had slightly lowered as they explained in a hurry.
"So this moron has a jusenkyo curse too, thanks to you, and he likes Akane. So to get at you and to get close to Akane, he's been using his cursed form to pretend to be her pet?" Kushina asked with an eerie calm tone.
"It wasn't my fault. He followed me all the way to China" Ranma grumbled under his breath.
"So not the time to correct her, cuz" Naruto said, as he made a kill gesture under his neck for emphasis.
"Oh, I agree it's the morons' own fault for following you all the way to China. So his curse is on him" Kushina said, as she waved her hand dismissively at this.
"Wait, really?" Naruto asked while raising an eyebrow at this, surprised with this response.
"So you're not mad at us for keeping this secret?" Ranma asked with a sigh of relief
Kushina smiled kindly at this, before……
POW!!!!!
She promptly grabbed the two teens by their heads, and slammed them together.
"I should have seen that coming" Naruto groaned, as he laid on the ground while holding his head.
"Zip it, brat! And you! Why the hell did you keep this a secret, when he was using his cursed form to sneak into Akane's room?!" Kushina yelled, as she grabbed Ranma by his shirt and pulled him to his feet and glared at him.
"I promised on my honor that I wouldn't tell anyone about his curse, and I didn't know he would pull that when I made that promise!" Ranma yelled.
Kushina groaned at this, as while she expected a lot of excuses, this was one she could somewhat understand. "You're a moron!" she yelled in his face.
"And how do you figure that?!" Ranma yelled back at this, as he took his promises seriously.
"If he's taking advantage of your promise to mess with you and to take advantage of Akane, then he's not worth showing any honor towards you, ya idiot!" Kushina and to everyone's surprise Naruto said along with his mother.
"B-but I made a man to man prom -" Ranma was stuttering out, before he was cut off.
"And were you in your cursed form at the time?" Naruto asked with a flat tone, as he figured it was most likely that when Ryoga's curse was revealed that Ranma was in his girl form, seeing as he most likely would have gotten splashed too.
Ranma paused at this and looked to the side at this, pretty much confirming this.
"Gotta love a loophole. Nabiki will find that so hot" Kushina said with a laugh, as she dropped Ranma, as she looked at her son.
Naruto blushed and sputtered at this, while Shampoo's eyebrow twitched violently in irritation.
"So are we off the hook?" Ranma asked, as he got off the ground and dusted himself off.
"Ha, you wish. You're both gonna give Akane a real apology, or so help me, you're not getting another meal from my restaurant. And you aren't getting ramen for life" Kushina said, as she gave both teens a dirty look.
"That works for me" Ranma said as he nodded in agreement.
"Yea, that was part of the plan when we decided to bail anyway. We just wanted to give her time to calm down, and not be near any weapons" Naruto said, as he slightly shuddered at this.
"Pfft. She definitely fits you, tomboys always make good Uzumaki" Kushina said with a scoff, as she looked at Ranma.
"Uh, is this your way of saying that I am one, auntie?" Ranma asked, as they both approached Shampoo to get some ramen.
"Damn straight! Better an Uzumaki than using the fat asses name!" Kushina said with a scowl, before she picked up her bowl and started to eat from it.
Ranma smiled at this before he too started to eat happily, along with his cousin and aunt.
Cologne chuckled at this, but before she could start eating from her own bowl, she paused as she sensed something and looked at a tree nearby.
Kushina, noticing this, looked at the tree and after a few moments, she scowled and jumped to her feet and swung her leg. "Tempest Kick!" she yelled out, as she sent the air blade at the tree, easily cutting it down and as it fell, a figure fell out of the tree and landed in the dirt.
Said figure was what looked like a teen boy, who was wearing what looked like a blue battle kimono, with what looked like a red and white fan on the chest area. The teen boy also had dark blue hair, with the back end looking like a duck's butt.
Naruto looked up from his bowl of ramen and looked at the teen boy, as he gained a shocked look on his face, before he quickly swallowed his ramen and stood up. "Damn it! I should have known you would show up soon, Sasuke!" he yelled as he glared at the teen boy.
"Nice to see you too, dope," Sasuke said with a scoff as he looked at Naruto.
"You know this guy?" Ranma asked curiously.
"Oh, him and Lum know him," Kushina said with a snicker, as she sat back down and went back to her meal.
"Who is strange boy? Is he friend?" Shampoo asked with a tilt of her head.
"Like I would be friends with this commoner!" Sasuke yelled as he pointed at Naruto.
"Then you enemy of Shampoo!" Shampoo yelled out, as she shot to her feet pulled out her ball mallets, before she ran at Sasuke.
As this happened, Sasuke smirked as his eyes slowly changed.
The others noticed this, and could tell from the stance Sasuke was taking, that he was more than ready.
"Shampoo, wait!" Naruto yelled as he got up, dropping his bowl as he did.
But it was too late, as Shampoo had already attacked Sasuke, who had already ran past her, his hand out in a striking motion.
Sasuke smirked at this as his hand sparked a bit, as Shampoo suddenly lit up with electricity and screamed in pain, before falling to the ground lightly smoking, her mallets destroyed.
"Shampoo!" Cologne yelled out, as she ran over to her.
"You're dead!" Naruto yelled out, as he was already attacking Sasuke, thanks to his Soru and he had his Shigan already flying at him, but Sasuke easily avoided it by moving to the side, before he swing his own arm at Naruto, who was pulled back suddenly by Kushina, who had grabbed him with her hair.
"Let me go!" Naruto yelled, as he tried to get loose.
"Don't be a moron, brat. He baited you into attacking him without thinking" Kushina said, as she gave Sasuke a dirty look, as she kept her son bound with her hair.
"Stay out of it. This is between me and your son, you old hag" Sasuke said as he glared at Kushina.
Kushina's eyebrow twitched at this, while Ranma winced, knowing what was most likely coming next.
"Normally, I wouldn't condone calling her that, but you have that coming. So go for it" Naruto said with a snicker.
Before Kushina promptly slammed him on the dirt.
"This is your fight brat, I'm not taking it from you!" Kushina yelled at him.
"Even after what he just called you?" Ranma asked with a cocked eyebrow.
"Oh don't get it twisted. I'll get even later, but this is Naruto's fight, not mine. But you're not gonna fight him, when you're acting like a hot head" Kushina said to Ranma, before she turned to Naruto who was getting back up.
"But Shampoo -" Naruto was saying, before being cut off.
"She's fine, you dope. I only grazed her with my lightning, it's not my fault she's weak" Sasuke said with a scoff.
"It's true son in law. She's alive" Cologne said as she looked at everyone, after she had checked Shampoo's condition.
"Now then, can we finish this already? I have worked hard to get strong enough to finally be able to fight you and I will not be denied" Sasuke said, as he glared at Naruto.
"Yea, well you're gonna be waiting a bit, brat. He's in the middle of training right now, so I'll tell you what; you and him one on one in say a week's time" Kushina said, as she blocked Sasuke's path to Naruto.
Sasuke glared at Kushina for a few moments, before he activated his Sharingan and weighed his options.
"You better be sure, red eyes," Ranma warned him.
"Yeah, my mom isn't like Shampoo. She's gonna make you work for it" Naruto said, slightly hoping that he would do something stupid.
"……fine. I suppose that a week won't make a difference. We will fight then, outside your high-school. See you then, dope" Sasuke said, as he glared at Naruto, before he ran off into the forest.
"Man, what's his deal?" Ranma asked with a frown, as they all walked back over to the campfire.
"It's a long story. Lum could probably explain it better" Kushina said as she sat down.
"How is she involved?" Cologne asked curiously, as she placed Shampoo on her sleeping bag.
"He's her ex from before she came to earth," Naruto said with a flat tone, as he sat down and picked up his bowl.
"…….eh?" Ranma asked with wide eyes, not expecting this after what had just happened.
"He's a prince from his home planet, some planet of space ninjas or something. All I know is that after Lum showed up and started making life a madhouse, he showed up wanting to challenge me and win her back" Naruto said as he refilled his bowl of ramen.
"……so he's a more competent Kuno?" Ranma asked with a raised eyebrow.
Kushina snorted at this, as that was an interesting comparison, as she shook her head.
"Not really. Back when he was attacking me in Tombooki Town, he couldn't beat me at all, thanks to my skills with the six powers. He was more annoying than anything……so yea, pretty much just like Kuno, only no bad samurai talk" Naruto said as he shook his head at this, before pausing and chuckling at the very accurate description, now that he thought about it.
"So what changed then? I mean, he seemed to be a lot stronger than you were used to, with that lightning move he used" Ranma asked.
"No idea. He could never pull off that move before, so this is new to me" Naruto said, as he sat down next to the resting Shampoo with a new bowl of ramen.
"My guess is that it's those freaky looking eyes of his, so you probably should ask Lum when we get back home then" Kushina said as she thought about this.
Naruto groaned at this but nodded, as he knew if he wanted to have a chance against Sasuke, he should at least try to get information on Sasuke's eyes, and Lum was most likely his best bet.
"If Lum's that much of a problem for you son in law, why not just let Sasuke win and let him take her off your hands?" Cologne asked curiously.
"Yea, why not do that brat?" Kushina asked with a teasing and knowing grin, as she looked at her son.
"I'm not letting that asshole get away with hurting Shampoo, you old ghoul! And don't you start with me, woman!" Naruto yelled at Cologne, before he looked at his mother
"Heh, very well. I'll accept that answer, seeing as you're fighting for my great grand daughter's honor. I'll leave that boy to you then, son in law" Cologne said as she nodded.
Naruto nodded at this, before he looked at the knocked out Shampoo as she rested.
"And saved," Kushina said with a grin, as she took a picture of this with her phone.
"Oi! Give me that, you crazy bit -" Naruto yelled, as he turned to look at his mother, before Kushina slugged him in the gut.
"Hey, I'm not crazy! My parents had me tested" Kushina said with a scowl at her son, as he fell to the ground.
"And did you pass?" Ranma asked curiously.
"HA!" Naruto laughed at this, while Kushina's eyebrow twitched in annoyance at this, before she walked over to a tree and grabbed a branch on it, and easily ripped it off.
"Oh, you got jokes huh? Come here, let me show you something!" Kushina asked, before she stomped towards the two teens, while practice swinging with the tree branch she had.
Naruto and Ranma both looked at Kushina, as she stomped towards them and did the only thing that made sense….
They ran like bats out of hell.
"Get back here!" Kushina yelled out, as she pursued her son and nephew.
"What go on?" Shampoo groaned out, as she woke up with a groan, while wincing in pain.
"Nothing Shampoo, your future in law is just chasing your future husband and his cousin" Cologne said, as she shook her head.
Shampoo looked at the chase going on for a few moments, before she looked around. "Where is duck butt boy?" she asked.
"After exchanging blows with Naruto, he and Naruto set up a match in a week" Cologne said slightly, chuckling at her granddaughter's nickname for the alien watcher.
"Naruto fight for my honor?" Shampoo asked with a smile.
"Indeed. He was most upset that this boy hurt you, so I think you're actually making progress, Shampoo. Now rest, we're heading home tomorrow" Cologne said as she nodded.
Shampoo grinned widely at this. "Take that, love rivals" she thought, as she smiled in victory as she laid down, as Kushina continued to chase Ranma and Naruto.
"I got you now!" Kushina yelled, as she took a swing at Ranma, but just as she was about to hit him…..
"Oi! Watch it!" Ranma yelled in a panic, before he dodged it by bending to the side, like he was made of paper.
This caused Naruto to pause in surprise at this.
"Heh, congrats cuz. One down, and only five to go - ow!" Naruto was saying, before Kushina smacked him on the head with her tree branch.
"You may have one learned, now we move on to Tekkai. Now, where are my chains and mallet?" Kushina asked with a savage grin, as she looked around the area.
"Bring it on, auntie! I'm not giving up now!" Ranma yelled out, as he smiled at the fact that he finally was able to get Kami-e down.
(The next day)
It was now midday, and the group was walking back into the Nermia district, after their long journey back home.
"Hey auntie, before we head home, let's all go get something to eat at your place" Ranma said, trying to get Kushina's attention, as she looked at her phone.
"Any excuse to not see Akane, eh cuz?" Naruto asked with a grin.
"Hush you" Ranma said with an annoyed tone.
"Normally, I would jump at the chance to cook for you, but Minato said we should meet him at the Saotome's, and that we shouldn't delay," Kushina said, as she put her phone away.
"Really? Did he happen to say why?" Naruto asked curiously.
"Nope, though he said he had to hog tie the fat ass, so I'm guessing something from his past showed up, and we have to deal with it and discipline him Kushina said as she scowled
Ranma groaned at this. "I just hope that it's not another girl he got me engaged with, and forgot about," he said with a scowl.
"I do. You need another one, so that you can feel my pain" Naruto grumbled under his breath.
Shampoo pouted upon hearing this, as she knew Naruto most likely was talking about her.
"We will head back to the restaurant for now, Kushina. So you all head to the Saotome's" Cologne said to Kushina.
Kushina nodded at this, before she turned to the two teen boys. "Ok you two, follow me and be ready to help me hold down that fat panda" she said, before she walked off.
"You got it auntie" Ranma said, as he nodded at this and followed her.
Naruto nodded at this, but before he followed after her, he looked at Shampoo who was still pouting. "Hey, are you ok?" he asked her curiously.
"Oh! Yes, Shampoo ok. Shampoo just mad she lost to duck butt" Shampoo said, quickly composing herself.
Ranma snorted at the nickname Shampoo used for Sasuke, while Kushina burst out laughing loudly.
Naruto chuckled at this. "Don't worry about that, Shampoo. I'll beat Sasuke, I guarantee it" he said with a smile.
Shampoo nodded at this, but still kept her frown.
Naruto seeing this also frowned, before he smiled as he got an idea. "Hey, if you want, would you like to help me train this week for my fight? That way, we both can get stronger together" he said, knowing that as an Amazon, Shampoo was proud and wanted to get stronger.
"LIke date?" Shampoo asked with a hopeful smile, as she looked at Naruto with big eyes.
Naruto looked at Shampoo and froze, as he looked into Shampoo's eyes. "Damn it, that's just not fair!" he mentally yelled.
"Yes Naruto, would it be a date?" Ranma asked with a snicker.
"I'll get you, and it will look like a bloody accident," Naruto said, not looking at his cousin.
Ranma slightly paled at this, while Kushina snickered.
"Well?" Shampoo asked, as she kept looking at Naruto with her begging face.
"……Ok, it can be a date. But we still have to train" Naruto said as he sighed in defeat.
"Ai yaaah!" Shampoo cheered out, as she hugged Naruto happily upon hearing this.
"Hey! None of that. I need to get to Akane's to help with uncle fat ass" Naruto said, as he tried not to smile at Shampoo's excitement.
After a few moments, Shampoo pulled away from Naruto and smiled at him, as he ran after his mother and cousin. "Ha! I get first date, love rivals!" she thought victoriously.
(Saotome residence)
The front door of the house opened and the two Uzumaki's and Saotome entered.
"We're home!" Naruto yelled out to the house.
"Ah, welcome back everyone" Kasumi said, as she came out from the kitchen to greet them, wiping her hands on a towel, while Soun came out with her
"You bring me anything, whiskers?" Nabiki asked, as she came downstairs.
"I was in the mountains, gold digger. What did you expect me to bring back?" Naruto asked with a cocked eyebrow.
"Yea, unless you expected him to bring you a bug or something" Ranma said, as he took off his shoes.
"You should duck, Saotome" Nabiki said as she looked behind Ranma, while Naruto moved behind her.
"Eh?" Ranma asked curiously, while unseen to him, the dojo doors opened revealing Akane, who had a mallet raised above her.
SMASH! SMASH! SMASH!
Before she slammed her mallet down on him several times, sending him into the floor beaten.
"I told you that we should have started with Tekkai," Kushina said, as she shook her head at her beaten student.
"Uh, a little much, don't you think?" Naruto asked, as he looked at his downed cousin.
"You're next on my list, you bastard!" Akane yelled as she pointed her mallet at Naruto, who quickly hid behind Nabiki.
"I feel so safe in your arms, whiskers," Nabiki said with heavy sarcasm in her voice.
"Just call off your sister! She is making me think that my mom had another kid!" Naruto yelled, as he made Nabiki turn around while he stayed behind her, as Akane kept trying to get at him.
"Akane, you have been terrorizing the neighborhood all week, after you chased Ryoga out of town. Aren't you tired yet?" Kasumi asked curiously, as she frowned.
"Are you kidding me?! Almost everyone, but me, knew about his curse! You're lucky that I'm even talking to you, dad and Nabiki!" Akane yelled out.
"I didn't know," Kushina said, as she raised her hand slightly.
"Eh? You didn't?" Akane asked curiously, as her anger began lowering as she looked at Kushina, while lowering the mallet.
"Nope. And trust me, whatever you did to the pig boy, is kids stuff compared to what I'm gonna do when I see him" Kushina said, as she slightly glared, making everyone slightly flinch at this.
"I want lessons on how to do that," Nabiki said, holding up her hand.
Naruto groaned at this, as he looked up at the ceiling.
"As for this whole lashing out at everyone thing, while I can understand being admitted about them not telling you about pig boy, it's not all their fault, Akane" Kushina said firmly, as she looked at Akane.
"W-what?" Akane asked, her eyes slightly widening at this.
"Akane, if you would have paid attention at all, then you would have been able to see all of the hints that Ryoga was P-Chan" Nabiki said, as she shook her head at her sister.
"Exactly. There were plenty of hints, if you would have paid attention, Akane" Naruto said, as he moved from hiding behind Nabiki.
Akane said nothing to this, but she looked down at the ground and clenched her fists tightly.
Kushina, seeing this, placed her hands on her shoulders. "Hey, it's OK to be mad and lash out when mad. But place the blame where it belongs, it's Ryoga's fault for making it so Ranma couldn't tell you, without breaking his dumb ass honor promise" she said, as she jerked a thumb at the downed Ranma.
"Promise?" Akane asked, raising an eyebrow at this.
"Yea. Something about how he promised not to tell anyone and then next thing he knows, he's pretending to be your pet, and he's trying to get him out of your bedroom" Kushina said, as she had made Ranma talk on how this whole mess had happened, while back in the mountains.
Akane's eyes widened at this, as she thought back to when she first got P-Chan, and how Ranma had tried to sneak into her bedroom, before she woke up and beat him up.
"Ugh, what happened?" Ranma groaned as he woke up, while rubbing his head.
"Oh, nothing much. Akane just beat the hell out of you, cuz" Naruto said casually.
"And Kushina just talked her down from pulling a Godzilla on the Nermia ward" Nabiki said with her own casual tone, getting a snort of laughter from Naruto making her smirk.
Ranma's eyes widened at this, before he turned to look at Akane, who was looking down at him.
"So you were trying to get Ryoga away from me the whole time" Akane said, as she looked at Ranma, while dropping the mallet on the floor.
"Uh yea" Ranma said with a nervous tone of voice.
Akane said nothing to this, before she hugged him.
"Thanks" she said with a firm tone, as she hugged Ranma.
"Well, it's progress at least" Naruto said as he chuckled slightly, while Kasumi and Soun smiled at this.
"Now that we have avoided a funeral, where is Minato? He said we should meet him here to deal with something the fat ass panda did" Kushina said, as she looked at Soun.
Soun paled at this, before he chuckled sheepishly. "Uh, well, you see -" he was saying, before getting cut off.
"Mr Saotome got loose and ran off, so Mr Uzumaki ran after him with a guest of his," Kasumi said, as she led everyone into the living room.
"Yea. Once he saw the lady he had with him, he freaked out and broke loose then ran off. I didn't know he could run that fast" Nabiki said with a chuckle.
"Did she happen to give her name?" Naruto asked curiously.
"Or did you get a good look at her, so that we know what she looks like, if we happen to see her?" Ranma asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Uhhhhh" Soun said nervously, as he looked at Ranma and Kushina, more specifically at Kushina.
Suddenly, they all heard a crash and what sounded like Genma yelling in pain.
"You can't do this Minato. You have no idea what she will do to me - yeouch!" Genma was heard yelling, before another blow was heard.
Everyone quickly went outside, and saw Minato outside the front gates of the Tendo's house, with what looked like a tied up Genma. What stood out about Genma's wounds was that his body was covered in cuts.
"Save your explanation for Kushina and Ranma, Genma. They should be here soon" Minato said, as he shook his head at the man, as he placed his foot on the man's back to keep him pinned to the ground.
"Sorry, but we beat you here babe" Kushina said with a smile, as she walked over to her husband.
Genma yelled at this and struggled to get up, but Minato stomped hard on his back, making him yell in pain.
"Wow, what's got uncle fat ass so scared?" Naruto asked as he smiled at this display of cowardice.
"Yea, usually auntie is already mad when he's like this, not before. So it must be good, if he's already acting like chicken shit" Ranma said with a smile of his own.
"It's not just your mom he's scared of," Minato said, as he looked at his son.
"Why's that? Who would this moron fear more than me?" Kushina asked with a scowl, as she felt her pride being hurt at this.
Suddenly, a wall down the street was destroyed, surprising everyone and when the dust cleared, what looked like an older woman with short red hair and wearing a kimono walked out of the hole that she had just made with the katana she was carrying.
"He's more scared of her, at the moment, sweetheart," Minato said with a smile, as he pointed at the woman.
"I can't seem to find Genma, Mr Minato. Have you had any luck?" the woman asked, as she sheathed her blade and looked at Minato
"I found him and I told you to call me Minato, we're family after all" Minato said with a smile at the woman.
"Family?" Ranma asked, raising an eyebrow at this.
"What's he on about mom?" Naruto asked, as he looked at his mother, who was silent as she looked at the woman with a katana, with her mouth slightly open.
Before she smiled brightly and ran at the woman.
"There you are, Nodaka! I was hoping my husband would be able to track you down!" Kushina yelled as she hugged the woman.
The now named Nodaka smiled at this, as she let Kushina hug her. "Still the tomboy, sis?" she asked, as they separated.
"Yep, you know it," Kushina said with a grin.
Naruto paused at hearing this, and looked at Nabiki. "Sis?" he asked curiously.
"Yup. Ranma's mom showed up after you guys left, and the panda boy has been hiding ever since. Luckily, your dad is pretty good at tracking him" Nabiki said, as she rolled her eyes at Genma, who was still struggling to get loose, but Minato still had him pinned.
Ranma's eyes widened at this, as he looked at Nodaka, who was talking to Kushina happily.
"Are you gonna go talk to her, Ranma?" Akane asked curiously.
"Um, I'm not really sure. This is new for me" Ranma said, as he had never really thought about what he would say or do if he had the chance to meet his mom.
"Don't do it! You don't know what will happen!" Genma yelled out, as he struggled to get up.
Before Kushina stamped on his head with her foot, embedding his head into the dirt.
"Save it, fat boy! I finally have my sister back, and I'll be damned if I'm gonna let you ruin my nephew's reunion with her!" Kushina yelled, as she ground the heel of her shoe into Genma's head.
Nodaka's eyes widened at this, before she looked at the crowd of people at the entrance to the house and when she looked at Ranma, she paused. "Ranma?" she asked hopefully.
"Uh yeah, that's me" Ranma said nervously, as he stepped forward after Naruto smacked him in the back.
"Oh, my baby boy!" Nodaka yelled, as she quickly shot forward and pulled him into a hug.
"Gah!" Ranma yelled in surprise at how tight the hug was.
"Yea, my little sis is not only good with a blade, but she could hug a bear into submission" Kushina said with a smile at seeing this, while she kept her foot on Genma's head.
"Oh look at my baby boy! All grown up and handsome too! And you look so strong now!" Nodaka said, as she started to fuss over Ranma.
"Uh yea, pop trained me hard, and auntie has been training me lately, along with my cousin Naruto" Ranma said, as he just let Nodaka fuss over him.
"Oh?" Nodaka asked, as she looked at Naruto for a few moments, before she smiled at her sister. "You named him after a ramen topping?"
This caused Naruto to face plant into the dirt at this.
"Well, in our defense, we were going for the storm, not the ramen topping," Minato said with a sheepish chuckle, while Kushina burst out laughing.
"Hey, let me up! You have no idea what you're doing, you psychopath!" Genma yelled out, as his head got free from Kushina's foot.
"Give me one good reason why I should, you fat panda!" Kushina growled at him.
"Because if you don't, then mine and Ranma's life will be forfeit!" Genma yelled out in a panic.
"……eh?" everyone asked, as they looked at Genma and Nodaka at this.
"Oh, for crying out loud, Genma. Only you would be dumb enough to not figure it out" Nodaka said, as she pinched her nose and shook her head slightly.
"Um, what's going on, Miss Saotome?" Kasumi asked politely.
"Well, to sum it up Kasumi, when Genma said that he wanted to take Ranma on a long training trip, I made him and Ranma sign a contract that said that said that Ranma would return a man among men, or else they would both be honor bound to commit seppuku" Nodaka said calmly, while everyone but Kushina's eyes widened in surprise.
"And this moron bought that?! Gahahahahahaha!!!!!" Kushina asked, before she fell over laughing, slamming her fist on the ground.
"Wait, it was a trick?" Genma asked his eyes widening
"Of course you fool! You know us Uzumaki's pull pranks, though I suppose this one was a bit much, even if it was meant to make sure you made the most of the training trip, huh?" Nodaka asked, as she looked at Kushina.
"Are you kidding?! This one has me beat in terms of psychology! I am gonna have to step my game up!" Kushina said with a laugh.
"Thanks auntie," Naruto groaned out, as he slapped his forehead at this.
Nodaka chuckled sheepishly at this, as she rubbed the back of her head.
"Ok everyone, let's all go inside. I'm sure that we all have much to catch up on. We can eat, while we talk" Soun said to everyone, as he moved to let everyone inside the house.
Everyone nodded at this, as they quickly went inside.
"So Ranma, Minato tells me you have a fiance?" Nodaka said, as she smiled at her son.
Ranma and Akane groaned at this, while Naruto and Nabiki snickered at this.
P.O.M and Kfbanime87 were both relaxing in their office, when, like a bad cold that comes back….
Ha ha ha, very funny. Is the sites alerts fixed yet -: Deadpool was asking, before he quickly ducked, avoiding a shotgun blast from Kfbanime87
Wrong subject, you moron: P.O.M said with a flat tone

Oi, watch where you fire that thing, you chocolate fiend! Deadpool yelled, as he ran away
