Ranma blinked, when the wall of the yard burst open and Shampoo bounced through the hole.
She spied him at once and waved happily. "Nihao, Airen! Shampoo have plan to get catgirl pets accept Shampoo as Ranma's wife!"
Nabiki looked up from where she was grooming Kasumi's tail with her tongue and eyed Shampoo quizzically. "Mrrr? But why do myou need a plan forr that? We like you anyaway. Myow!"
Kasumi gasped from the feelings of Akane suckling on her nipples and added, "Oh myow! Shampoo is so cute - and she turns into a kitty, too! Mrrriaow!"
Ranma looked back and forth between the three kitties and Shampoo. He had never thought that changing the arrangement with the Tendos would have this result. And it was quite interesting that the catgirls seemed to display no jealousy towards another suitor. How strange to have a girl declare her interest in him without anyone flying off the handle and accusing him of being a womanizer. A big grin started to spread over his face, but then he saw the dark frown on Soun Tendo's face.
"Absolutely not!" said the head of the Tendo family and adoptive father of the three catgirls. "When I agreed to name Ranma my heir, if he took my darling girls as his pets, I meant for them to be his family, not to play second fiddle to some other girl he marries. If he marries this Shampoo girl, the arrangement becomes null and void."
The catgirls wailed and yowled at this pronouncement. "Nyoooo! We want Ranma to be our myaster! Nyaaaaa!"
Genma sweated nervously. "Errr... Tendo-kun, perhaps you should think about that. If Ranma never takes a human wife, how will he produce an heir of his own, to take over one day? You don't want the proud Tendo line to end with him, do you?"
Soun looked dazzled. He had thought of the three cats as his daughters for so long that it had never crossed his mind that they might not be able to procreate with humans - and even if they could, the offspring might not be human and thus not legally able to hold the title of the dojo. He came to a decision.
"Very well," Soun declared, "I will allow Ranma to take a human wife, along with my daughters... if it is proven that my daughters cannot bear him a human heir."
The Tendo sisters meowed happily at the decision, while everybody else just blinked.
"How does he prove that, Tendo-kun?"
"Simple! He must try to impregnate them, and only if they cannot conceive or if their offspring turns out to be non-human I will allow Ranma to take a wife beside them."
Ranma gulped. Impregnate them?
Genma looked dismayed. So did Shampoo, her clever plan now thoroughly derailed.
The catgirl sisters seemed overjoyed by the proposal. Kasumi dreamily said "Kittens..." and tweaked her nipples, as if imagining little muzzles suckling on them. Nabiki, who was permanently in heat (remember that Ranma only removed the command that forced her to obey every sexual request - she is still left with her hypercharged libido), wasted no time in dropping to all fours, lifting her tail to present her sopping cunt, and meowing invitingly. Akane simply rubbed her abdomen in wonder; Daddy wanted her to have kittens?
Seeing that there was no way around it, Genma encouraged Ranma. "What are you waiting for, son? Get on with it!"
Shampoo was not so forthcoming. On the one hand, she didn't think that the catgirls could have human children - after all, they were just cats, who had miraculously grown to resemble humans - but she wasn't sure they couldn't.
Ranma looked from one face to the other in a daze. Oh boy. Things never got less complicated around here, did they? Finally he decided to...
