RANMA HENTAI RPG AND FICTION - 1: sStart > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ranmahentairpgandfiction/ Compilation by St Fan [GAME START] ^-^ angel_katsuragi *places the OPEN sign outside the door to my resturaunt* Well, i'm ready whenever you folks are! Re: ^-^ Austin_S_Dakota Walking home from School, Akane was more then a little upset at that jerk Ranma. "Hello, Ukyo," Akane said as she saw the other girl opening her shop. Re: ^-^ angel_katsuragi Akane walks up sullenly as I'm sweeping the afternoon leaves off of the mat in front of my shop. "Oh, hi Akane!" Although I wasn't very fond of Akane at times, she looked as if she needed a quick pick-me-up. "Is something wrong?" I ask as I pat her shoulder. "Was it Ran-cha--" I stop short of using my pet name for Ranma, not wanting to intice Akane's anger. "Did Ranma do somrthing?" I correct myself quickly. Re: ^-^ Austin_S_Dakota "You could say that," Akane said sounding tired even to her ears. "Why does that baka always have to be such an idoit?" She asked Ukyo not really expecting an answer. Re: ^-^ anonymous09556 "Eyargh!" Crash! Ranma finished his flight on Akane Air mere meters in front of the Ucchan. "Ow..." Blue Thunder and Roses Louis F. Perico Kuno was in a particularly good mood; he witnessed his Tigress, the Fair Akane Tendo, launch the villainous sorceror Ranma skyward. "A hit, a hit, a palpitable hit!" he said softly to himself. So, to express his joy of His Tigress's victory, he had Sasuke buy a boquet of flowers. "But what of the pig-tailed girl, Master?" asked his servant. "Good point...buy one for her as well...and do not forget one for My Spatula Goddess, the dearest Ukyou Kuonji!" he ordered. A short while later, Kuno was walking down the street, with Sasuke and 3 boquets of roses in tow. It was then that he saw Saotome land, head first into the pavement. "Heh...the dark fates frown upon thee now, Saotome, for the righteous fist of Akane Tendo hath brought thee low." he said to the crumpled form. Kuno then realized that he was in front of the Ucchan's. He smelled the cooking. "Ahhh...such culinary delight...and THAT can mean only one thing...my beloved Ukyou is cooking! Come, Sasuke!" Once inside, he smelled more of that delicious food...and saw TWO of his precious three beauties! "Sasuke! 2 Roses!" Kuno called out. Sasuke immediately handed Kuno two boquets, each of which he threw at Ukyou and Akane, knowing that with their skill, they would catch them. He then smiled, saying, "Tis a time of feasting and celebration with the most beautiful maidens of this world!" Re: Blue Thunder and Roses anonymous09556 Thwap! "Hey Kunou," Ranma said, perched atop the delusional kendoka's head and leaning over to look at him. "What's up?" Re: Blue Thunder and Roses Louis F. Perico >< *grrr* "Try as thou might to spoil the moment, thou shalt not ruin this celebration, Saotome. Tis fortunate for thee that you are within the walls of this elite culinary establishment, else I'd be tempted to run thee through." said Kuno, enduring the humiliation of Ranma standing on his head... Re: Blue Thunder and Roses anonymous09556 Ranma shrugged and looked up. He waved, "Hiya, Ucchan!" Re: Blue Thunder and Roses Austin_S_Dakota Ranma felt Akane's elbow slam into his gut. "Fine ignore me Ranma!" Leaving Ranma on the ground, the short haired girl sat down at the counter of Ucchan's. Not wanting to fight Ranma again, she asked if she could get a shrip special. Re: Blue Thunder and Roses anonymous09556 Ranma scowled at Akane, "You're always telling me to leave you alone, and when I do, you hit me!" Re: Blue Thunder and Roses Austin_S_Dakota Akane turned back to face Ranma, her eyes hard and angry. The beautiful girl stood up hands on her hips. "Fine then Ranma, leave me alone!" Re: Blue Thunder and Roses anonymous09556 Ranma sighed, "That's what I was _doing_!" Re: Blue Thunder and Roses Austin_S_Dakota Suddenly Akane's eyes filled with tears. Turing she ran into Ucchan's bathroom, hurt at Ranma's reaction to her. Re: Blue Thunder and Roses anonymous09556 Ranma hung his head. "I'm never gonna understand her. I do what she wants, and she gets upset!" Re: Blue Thunder and Roses Austin_S_Dakota Finding shelter in Ucchan's restroom, Akane felt herself break down into tears once again. After what Ranma ahd done after school she had hoppeed that his might have said that he was sorry. Instead she had been hur by him once again. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Louis F. Perico Kuno had tried to restrian himself, he really did. But seeing the Fair Akane Tendo brought to such straights was the breaking point! "BASE VILLAIN! How DARE you make Akane Tendo cry!" He roared out! Then, from hammerspace, he had himself a bokken, raised at the ready. "I, the Blue Thunder, shall punish you for your dirty deeds!!!" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 WHAM! Ranma absently sent Kunou flying out the open door of the Ucchan while he mentally wrestled with just what the hell Akane _wouldn't_ get upset with. Re: Blue Thunder and Roses angel_katsuragi I stare at Kuno, Akane, and Ranma, all of which appeared suddenly in the last few seconds. A bouquet of roses lands in my arms, surprising me. "Uh... thanks, Kuno," I say, blinking. Ranma twitches alittle, and he picks himself up off the pavement. "Um, anyway, I think I should get to work!" I begin cooking the order Akane gave me along with several others. -=I know Ran-chan's hungery!=- I think, my eyes sparkling. - =I'll make him an okinamiyaki so good, he'll just HAVE to marry me!=- I look around and go back to cooking, as everyone is now stareing at me, wondering why I'm hugging my spatula. "Heh... heh heh..." -^^- Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Louis F. Perico [2 minutes later] Kuno was back, bruised but undaunted as he launched his tradmark auto- fire bokken attack. *STRIKE**STRIKE*STRIKE*STRIKE*STRIKE* "Saotome, if [swish] you [stab] were [jab] HALF [slash] the man [stab stab] that I am [swish], thou [jab stab] would BEG [swish swish swish] Akane's forgiveness!!!" roared Kuno as he kept up the pressure on Ranma. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 Ranma didn't even seem to hear Kunou as he absently deflected the blows before a palm strike sent the kendoka flying once again. WHAM! Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Louis F. Perico Kuno staggered a bit, but then he regained his senses and resumed his attacks, keeping Ranma on his toes. [ooc: i dont know about you, but methinks we got a stalemate here until ukyou-chan does something ^^;] Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Austin_S_Dakota OCC: Well Akane could boot both Ranma and Kuno from the shop then be alone with Ukyo... ^_^ Just an idea. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 If Ranma was on his toes, he wasn't aware of it. His movements, as automatic now as when he slept (remember when Ryouga snuck into his room and tried to fight, right before Ranma found out his curse?), deflected the attacks. "Pipe down, Kunou. You're botherin' me," Ranma said, holding Kunou's nose closed. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Louis F. Perico ooc: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! I wanna be with Ukyou-chan T.T!!! its not MY fault that I'm trying to be in character... Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 OOC: Hey! She's MY fiancee! Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 OOC: Err, wait. I mean, she's MY character's fiancee. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens angel_katsuragi "Hey hey hey! Please don't fight in here!" I yell as Kunou creates a man-shaped hole in my door as he flies through it. He came charging back in a second later, using that acursed multi-strike attack of his, thus causeing MORE property damage to my tables, chairs, and bar. "Oh no!" I groan, as one of the paper lamps fall to the floor and breaks open. "Ah! I've got it!" I say, snapping my fingers. I reach into the oven with my trusty spatula, pulling out four of the piping hot pizza's I had been cooking. "Here!" I say in a loud voice as I drop them loudly onto the plates on the bar. "Eat up!" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Louis F. Perico With a now silly nasal voice [since Ranma is now holding it closed], Kuno said, "Saotome, just be a man and A-PO-LO-GIZE to the Fair Akane! Or are you coward to do so?" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 "Apologize for what?!" Ranma shouted incredulously (loud enough for Akane to hear). "Doing what she kept telling me to? Telling her the truth? What?" He sighed and shoved Kunou away from him. "Kami, I can't believe I'm actually listening to this twit," he muttered. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Austin_S_Dakota Akane had heard what ranma had said and tried very hard to stop her tearing eyes. Sniffing Akane tried to hide the fact that she had been crying but failed. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens angel_katsuragi After I drop the pizza's onto the counter for Ran-chan and Kunou, I follow Akane. I feel kind of sorry for her, and I know its s devoius trick, but I can see a chance to break up those two once and for all! I find Akane looking into a mirror, in a vain attempt to stop her tears from flowing. She quickly dries her eyes when she hears the door open. "Hi there..." I say quietly. "What happened today?" I gently squeze the girls shoulder. "Do you want to talk about it?" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 "Thanks, Ucchan," Ranma said with a grin before devouring the okonomiyaki. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Louis F. Perico As Ranma was busy stuffing his face with 3 okonomiyaki, Kuno managed to eat his with delicacy and grace. "it CANNOT be denied, Tis truly a masterpiece beyond mere words...a dance of the taste buds upon which Ukyou's culinary art is truly a masterpiece, dont you agree, Saotome?" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 "For once, I gotta agree with ya, Kunou," Ranma replied. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Austin_S_Dakota "Why does Ranma have to be such a jerk," Akane asked. Is he to stupid to know how much what he says hurts?" Akane hated being weak, but there was nothing she could do about it. Cease Fire over Pizza Louis F. Perico Kuno ate more of his, loving the taste, humming in culinary bliss. Then, a curious thought had entered the kendoist's mind. "Saotome, you DO realize that thou cannot have TWO wives...mayhaps a wife and mistress, but not two wives. Pray tell, by what means dost thou plan to deliver thyself from this twist of fate?" Re: Cease Fire over Pizza anonymous09556 Ranma sighed, "To be honest, Kunou, I don't got no idea. If I just break the engagements, or my honor is ruined. Right now, I'm just waitin' for some of the girls to just give up on me so we can break some of the engagements by mutual agreement." Re: Cease Fire over Pizza Louis F. Perico Kuno took another bite, chewed, then swallowed. "Methinks you simplify too much, Saotome, for women such as yon Spatula Goddess Ukyou, the Lioness that is Shampoo, and, alas, the 'Harley Quinn' psychopath that is my sister Kodachi, shalt not merely 'give up'." Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens angel_katsuragi I smile knowingly, and pat Akane gently on the shoulder. "He just... has people problems sometimes..." I look into the mirror so I can see Akane's face. "If its not a problem he can approach with his fists, he doesn't know how to deal with it.." I say as I give her shoulder a small squeeze. "He just reacts in the only why he knows how; he 'fights'." I look outside quickly at Ranma and Konou, who for once, aren't fighting. With a sigh of relief, I return to Akane. "I'm sure he doesn't MEAN to hurt you... he just doesn't know how to approach you.." I smile alittle. "You have the same problem sometimes, don't you?" I say with a small giggle. -=Wait...=- I think quickly. -=What am I doing?! Aren't I supposed to be BREAKING them up?!=- Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Austin_S_Dakota Sniffing Akane wipped her eyes. "Thanks Ukyo," Leaning out she hugged the other girl. Letting her go, Akane stood up and strainted out her dress. "Let's go and see what those bakas have gotten themselves into." Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens angel_katsuragi I return Akane's hug with mixed feelings. While I'm glad that she's not so upset anymore, I'm still a little disapointed that she's not as mad at him anymore. I go with her back into the main room where Ranma and Konou are feasting/conversing about marrages and fiance's. I laugh alittle at the serious expressions on their faces, but stop when they turn those looks on Akane and I. "Um.... whats.. up?" I say with a nervous smile. "What're you two... talking about?" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 Ranma blinked at the girls as they returned. "What were we talking about? Umm... well... you two among other things, actually." Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Austin_S_Dakota Sitting down on one of the free stools, Akane looked up at Ukyo. "Can I help you cook?" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens angel_katsuragi Okay, the pit of my stomach just vanished. "Um, I think I've got it u- under control, Akane," I say as a large sweat drop develops on my head. "You can get the drinks though!" -=How could she possibly poison us with poured drinks?=- I think nervously. I finish up the last five okinamiyaki's that are in the oven and pull them out. "Okay, orders up!" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Austin_S_Dakota Akane knew she had been given buisy work to do. It didn't bother her that much since she could still help even if it was in such a small way. "Here they are," Akane said placing the drinks in front of every one. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens angel_katsuragi I smile as Akane hands the drinks out. I watched her VERY closly to make sure no object of any kind fell or was placed into the drinks. I take the drink offered to me. "Kampai minna!" I say merrily as I take the drink willingly in one gulp. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Austin_S_Dakota Walking over Akane places a drink in front of Ranma. "Here you go," she said just before she placed one in front of Kuno as well. Walking away Akane sat down next to Ranma forcing Ukyo to set next to her or Kuno. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens angel_katsuragi I look over the rim of my glass and watch as Akane sits in the chair next to Ran-chan. A twinge of anger flashes through my body, but its unusually less than normal... but that doesn't mean I wanted to sit next to Konou! Other than Happosai, that boy was the most perverted person I knew! I knew Akane wouldn't try to molest me or anything, so I sat down next to her. "So...?" I ask nervously. "How are the okinamiyaki's?" Considering the rate at which they were dissapearing, I should say that they're pretty good, but I always loved compliments. I grab a slice of the squid okinami, and take a bite. -=Hmm.. its good, but deffinatly not my best work..=- I think with slight dissapointment. I smile at Ran-chan as he wolfs down his, wondering if he even tastes it. "Well, how are they?" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Austin_S_Dakota "It's wonderful Ukyo-san," Akane said proudly. "You're getting better every day it seems." Akane went back to eating her. "So Ranma what was Happosai so angry about last night," Akane asked rcalling the loud screams. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 "Ahh, that's kinda complicated, Akane. The old lech gave me a potion and some old scroll. Said it would cure my curse. I kinda screwed it up, so the part he wanted didn't happen." Kuno, Ukyou, Ranma, Akane, RanKO? Louis F. Perico [ooc: ok, here's an excuse for an opening; cindy, take advantage of this as you see fit.] Kuno took a sip of his beverage, then had another wonderful okonomiyaki. "Tis truly heavenly bliss, Saotome, to be seved by the beautiful Ukyou Kuonji AND the fairest Akane Tendo...oh, but pardon, it would be complete, if only the Pig Tailed girl were to show her visage! Then we would truly be in heavan!...Sasuke!" Sasuke replied, "Yes, Master?" "You still have HER roses?" "Yes, Master. I have only 1 boquet left after you gave one to Miss Ukyou and Miss Akane." "Good...do not lose it, for my red-haired pig-tailed goddess may arrive at any moment..." Re: Kuno, Ukyou, Ranma, Akane, RanKO? Louis F. Perico Kuno then answered Ukyou's query. "Ukyou Kuonji, thy culinary artistry hath truly been blessed by the very Kamis themselves...the texture, the taste, the smell, all combined in an experince that could almost rival the extasy of The Clouds and The Rain!" [ooc: for those of you not familiar with the Japanese culture, the term, 'The Clouds and The Rain' refer to the orgasmic bliss of sexual intercourse without sounding coarse, rude, or perverted. ^_^] Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Austin_S_Dakota "let me get this starit. Happy tried to get ride of you girl side." Akane looked at Ranma a little worried. "Do you really think that, that would happen?" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 "No, he tried to turn my girl side into his willing slave," Ranma responded sourly. "Didn't work, though." Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens angel_katsuragi I shake my head slowly. "That sounds like the old panty-perv all right..." I mumble as I take a bite of my okinamiyaki. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Cuteycindyhoney "Pervert is right!" Ranma exclaimed as she walked into the resturant. "That old fool thought he could get me to do everything his dirty little heart could dream of!" She walked up to the counter, and sat down. "Uk- Chan, got any eats? I'm starved." ***OOC***How's that? LOL! Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Louis F. Perico [ooc: Oh boy! Kuno's in for it now!] Kuno gasped! His wish came true, the Kami were TRULY smiling upon him, for his Pig-Tailed Girl was finally here! "Oh happy day this be, for it can be none other than THE Pig Tailed Goddess!" He takes the last boquet of roses, hands it to the red-head on bended knee. "I beseech thee, O Goddess of Passion and Fire, accept these as a token of my true love for thee, for I would not leave you out of the company of the other goddesses here." he says softly. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 The male Ranma swallowed nervously at the stares he must be getting from those present aware of his curse. "I, uh, I'd meant to tell you about this..." Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens angel_katsuragi **OOC** *laughs* great entrance! **IC** "Uh..." I point at the OTHER Ran-chan with a shaky finger. "Uh.... yeah, I'm s-sure you did..." I say as male Ran-chan clears his throat. "Whu... what happened?!" I walk over to Ranko and gently tap her shoulders, just to make sure I'm not hallucinating due to the drink Akane gave me. -=Maybe her mearly TOUCHING food makes it unedible...=- I think. Suddenly, Konou bowls me over in his effort to give Ranko his roses. I flip backwards over the bar and land head first is one of the sauce buckets. *SPLAT!!* I slowly pull my head out and pull myself up to thr top of the bar. ".... Oh Kunou.... 'dear'...." I growl. He turns around, still enamoured by Ranko. Before he can react, I pin him up on the wall with a pair of mini-spatulas. I grab a towel and wipe off as much of the sauce as I can. "Uh... yeah.." I say slowly when Ranko asks if theres any more food. "There's one more okinamiyaki if you want it." I say as I point over to Konou's untouched second pizza. "Help yourself!" I giggle with a sweet smile. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Austin_S_Dakota Akane knocked Kuno away from Ranma-C sending the boy flaying out a window. Picking up the newly arrived Ranma she looked at the one who had enter just after her. "You were going to tell us about this!?!!?" Akane shouted. "Is this thing evil!?" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 The male Ranma quickly slipped between Akane and his female self, disengaging her grip. "No, she isn't, Akane. The potion split us." Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Cuteycindyhoney "Thanks, Uk-Chan!" Ranma was about to make short work of Kuno, when Akane attacked him, then picked her up! "Uh, Akane? What's going on?" She watched Kuno sail out the window, and frowned. "Hey, who said I need help with that jerk!" Akane began shaking her, and shouting. "What's with this EVIL THING talk! Akane, you are so un-cute! Put me down!" Someone else grabbed her from Akane, and set her back on her feet. "Butt out!" she shouted, notn listening, as she turned to face the meddler. Ranma froze a huge sweatdrop over her head. "You! Who the heck are you? Why are you wearing my face?" Ranma planted her feet solidly, and rased her hands, ready to strike. "No matter! I don't care who you are. Posing as a Saotome is punishable by instant death!" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 He snorted, "It's not, and you know it. Not with someone like the old man as a genuine member of the clan." Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Austin_S_Dakota Reaching out Akane took both Ranma's by their chins. Turing their head she pressed them together cheek to cheek. "Ukyo... I think it's real? They both have Ranma's eyes!" One thing Akane had learned to do was look her fiancé in the eyes. With Ranma switching bodies on her, it was the only true way to tell if Ranma was real. "What... What are we going to do!" Akane didn't want to admit it, but a flash of one of her fantasies ran through her mind. It was a dream of both Ranma caressing her body. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Louis F. Perico ooc: sorry. Ukyou beat you to Kuno, and he is pinned on the wall, not out the window :P. ic: Kuno couldnt talk for the moment, having been momentarily stunned as he was pinned against the wall of the restaurant. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Cuteycindyhoney A chill ran up and down Ranma's spine. She forced herself to really look at the imposter. Then, Akane pushed them together, her and the imposter. She looked down, and saw a sight that froze her blood. Fake Ranma's hand. To be exact, the nail of his thumb. It was jagged and torn, from a minor accident involving a Akane's kicking kicking her out the window the other day. Ranma tore the nail, while climbing back out of the carp pond. "Look!" she shouted. "Look at this!" She grabbed Ranma's hand, and put her thumb next to his. His thumb was larger, but the torn nail looked exactly the same! "I don't remember this! What did that old freak do to me?" She spun around, and faced Ranma male. "GIVE ME BACK MY MANHOOD, YOU PERVERT!" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 "Hey! Cut it out! We're the same person, ya dummy!" Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Austin_S_Dakota "Are you following this?" Akane asked Ukyo as the two Ranma's argured back and forth. "One Ranma's bad enough, should we just try to get rid of the other?" Akane asked with a smile until she saw the angry looks everyone sent her way. "Sorry," she said weakly. "It was just a joke." Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens angel_katsuragi I watch everyone argue with great intrest, all the while trying to make an improtant descision on my part. -=Hmm.... TWO Ran-chans...=- I had recognized the female Ran-chan as soon as I saw her, and because I'd known him(or her?! *laughs* ) most of my life, I knew that she WAS Ran- chan. I also knew that the male Ran-chan was the real thing too. -=This may get interesting...=- I was fairly sure that Akane was in love with Ranma, despite their constant bickering. I also knew for SURE that I was in love with Ranma, and I knew that he knew it too. -=With two Ranma's now,=- I say to myself, -=we may be able to work this out after all!=- True love didn't care about sex(although I was sure Akane would disagree), and I was willing to settle for either Ranma. They should both have the same memories... and to tell the truth, I kinda... preferred girls to guys... posing as a man for all those years taught me that... Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens Cuteycindyhoney "It can't be! It can't be! I'm Ranma!" Ranma dashed madly for the kitchen. "Hot water! I need hot water!" she screamed, while grabbing a big copper kettle. Her hands trembled, as she filled the kettle with hot water. "I'll show them! I'll show them all who the real Ranma is!" She dumped the kettle on her head. A shrill screm filled the air. "NOOOoo!" Ranma frantically filled the kettle again and again. It didn't work! She didn't change back! She thought back to what Shampoo's old bag of a grandmother had once done. Was it just that cold water felt hot to her? No! Steam was rising from the kettle! It really was hot! Ranma had to see, had to be sure. She put the kettle on the stove. She screwed up her nerve, and dumped the nearly boiling water over herself! "YEEEECH! HOT HOT HOT!" Still, there was no change. She glumly walked back out into the dining room, and sat down. Well, it was more like her legs collapsed under her. Her wet clothes were clinging to her skin, and water was still streaming from her hair, but Ranma didn't even notice. "I'm stuck." she said in a small voice. "I'm trapped like this!" Ranma couldn't help it. A sob wracked her body. She dashed the tears of shame from her eyes, and ran back into the kitchen to hide. Now she was crying in front of everyone! Last time that ever happened, only time that ever happened, was when that creep Mikado Sanzenin had kissed her at the skating rink! Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens angel_katsuragi "Ra-Ran-chan!" I shout as she dashes into the kitchen. I quickly leave the others and follow her. I find her sitting with her back against the sauce fridge, her shoulders shaking wildly from sobs. Pain runs though my body seeing her like this, confused and helpless. I sit down next to her. "Listen Ran-chan... we'll find some way to cure this... this thing," I wisper as squeze her shoulder. I can feel the ripples of pain and doubt coursing through her body, and feeling that makes me want to cry too. Instead, I smile sadly. "Please Ran-chan... smile would you?" I say quietly. "You know seeing you like this kills me..." I want to hug her, but I don't want her to get any more scared than she already is. Re: Blue Thunder and Bokkens anonymous09556 The male Ranma hung his head. "She doesn't understand. Maybe if Jusenkyou hadn't flooded like that when I, we, fought Saffron. Damnit, Akane, she _is_ me still in some way. I can feel her in the back of my head, and I can't help her!" Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Louis F. Perico Kuno simply couldnt stay pinned, and he fell unceremoniously to the floor. He got himslef up, then CALMLY entered the kitchen. He carefully approached, knelt before Ukyou and his pig-tailed girl [and he was CAREFUL not to bowl over anyone this time ^_^], then said softly, "Pig-Tailed One, worry thyself not...we shall quest in your time of need for anything that might ally thy tearful soul. Is that not true, Ukyou?" It was then that P-chan strolled in, letting his nose lead the way, but was SHOCKED at seeing Ranma crying in the kitchen [and, still unaware of the male Ranma in the dining area]. "Oink?" he asked. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Cuteycindyhoney Ranma braced herself, and tried to put on a brave face. "Uk-Chan, you know how long I've been trying to find a cure before this." She tried to smile, but tears still ran quietly down her cheeks. "What-what if I'm stuck like this forever?" Ranma closed her eyes. "I never even did it with a girl yet!" she confided quietly to her buddy Uk-Chan. When she opened her eyes, there was Kuno's face leaning over her. Actually, that was just what the confused fighter needed to see. Her arm flashed forward, and her fist connected solidly with jawbone. "Thanks Kuno, I needed that." she sighed, as he crashed into the wall. "What are you oinking at, porkchop?" Ukyou looked puzzled, when Ranma picked up the little pig, and yelled right into his face. "You'd cry too, if you had to spend the rest of your days as a pig, you pig!" Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Louis F. Perico "SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" the piglet said back, not exactly appreciating being yelled into his face. Kuno peeled himself out of the wall, corrected his jaw, then managed to say, "I understand, Pig-Tailed One...you needed to vent your righteous wrath...and you are welcome...ow." Kno then looked around for some ice... Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? anonymous09556 The male Ranma knocked on the door tentatively. "Hey, uh, Ranma? I know I'm probably not your favorite person right now, but... you okay in there?" He felt _really_ awkward saying that. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? angel_katsuragi I smile knowingly as Ran-chan spills her heart out to me. I reach into my front pocket and pull out a hankerchief I use to wipe down the bar counter. "I'm sorry... I know its not much, but.." I say quietly as I hand it to her. Soon, Kunou appears, is socked in the jaw, and flies head-first into the wall. I giggle slightly as Kunou pulls himself out and adjusts his jaw. I turn back to Ran-chan and as soon as I start to open my mouth, a small black piglet waddles into the room. "Ah, P-chan!" I say with a smile. I could never figure out why, but that little pig always comforted me somehow... probably why Akane loved him so much. Suddenly, Ran-chan grabs the oinker by the bandanna and yells in his face. Surprised, I hold a hand out and gently push Ranma's hand back to the ground so she lets P-chan go. "I know you're scared Ran-chan..." I say with a sad look. "But don't take it out on P-chan... he didn't do any of this.." Just then, a knock resounds from the other side of the door and Ran-kun asks if everything is okay. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Louis F. Perico "Bwee BWEEE!" the piglet said. [That's right!] P-chan turned around to climb onto Ukyou's lap, then sat down, looked up and smiled. "Buh-wee!" he said pleasantly. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Austin_S_Dakota "Ranma," Akane said as she followed the male Ranma into the kitchen. Gentally Akane knelt next to the teary eyed redhead. "Don't worry about this Ranma, you'll beat it. You beat everything." Akane felt a pang of sadness seeing how both Ranma's seemed to want to be with Ukyo more. But this was something she had gotten used to a long time ago. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? angel_katsuragi I smile sweetly and gently scratch P-chan behind his piggy ears. "Ran- chan... do you think maybe Shampoo's great-grandmother could help?" I say thoughtfully. "I know you'd HATE to ask her, but she knows more about spells and trickery than the rest of us combined!" I smile bravely. "I'm sure she would know how to get you back to normal!" P-chan oinks quietly in my lap and I smile down at him. "You wanna help Ran- chan too, don't yah P-chan?" Akane then enters the room, and the Ran- chan/Ukyou togetherness time comes to an abrupt end. I sigh sadly, wishing I could have more time alone with her, but I'm glad that Akane is showing some genuine concern instead of hitting poor Ran-chan with that mallet of hers. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Cuteycindyhoney "Yeah, it's not his fault, but he doesn't have to laugh about it!" Ranma took the offered cleaning cloth, and blew her nose. She glared at the happy little pig. "Oh shut up!" Ranma cringed, when she heard her own voice talking. "I, I'm ok." she managed to answer. "Uk-Chan, what do I do now? I can't call him Raaa... I mean, that's me, but I just can't say he's Raan..." Ranma just couldn't get herself to call that guy by her name! "Yeah, I'm fine now, Saotome." she finally settled on. "It was just a bit of a shock." She looked up at Akane, and smiled weakly. "Guess you finally have a normal fiance, Akane." she said quietly, glancing at the man with her face. "I, I hope, I hope you'll be happy!" Ranma had honestly thought this was the only good thing about this whole mess. No more worries about who was who's fiance. Then way did her heart feel so empty and cold, as she looked at that guy sitting next to Akane? She never said it, but she always kinda thought that someday...No use thinking of that now! "This is so stupid! Why am I crying?" she asked, as tears started anew. "I've been a girl so many times now, this is nothing! Akane's right! I'll get things worked out in no time!" She jumped to her feet, and forced a smile. "Uk- Chan's right. Maybe that old monster can help us!" Ranma was making a bit of an error. Did she really think the Saotome guy would want to go back? Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? anonymous09556 The male Ranma winced, "I-I'm sorry, Ranma." It still felt a little wierd on his tongue. "Look, there might still be some Nannichuan floatin' 'round, right? Remember how often you, I, we wished the curse would be reversed?" Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Cuteycindyhoney "Don't worry about it, Saotome." Ranma said, as she dried the last of her tears. "There has to be some way to fix this mess." She stuck out her hand, and shook the hand of the man with her face. As their hands touched, Ranma froze. She felt a scary-delightful shiver run up her spine. I really am kinda cute, she thought, as she looked up at her male half. What am I thinking?!?! She snatched her hand away. "Um, thanks for trying to help. It's not your fault." Ranma became aware of something, and spun around in fear and shame. Her nipples where showing firm and proud, through the silk of her shirt. She felt another difference, a much more private difference, and blushed, as she squirmed. "Uh, gotta go to the can!" Ranma ran for the bathroom, not even noticing that instinct led her right to the ladies room. "Oh god! What's wrong with me?" She dabbed at herself with some tissues, not understanding the sudden dampness between her legs, refusing to let herself feel the pleasure at her own touch. "Must be some kind of side effect, that's all!" Ranma did her business while she was there, then returned to the dining room, just as everyone else was. "I'm starved!" she announced, trying to sound cheerful. "Any eats left?" She sat down, well away from Saotome. She coudn't even bring herself to look in his direction! The side effect was somehow connected with him, she was sure of it! Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? anonymous09556 The male Ranma blinked as his female self vanished into the bathroom. He could still sense her in the back of his mind, but what he was sensing... that couldn't be right, could it? Nahhh. He must've been misinterpreting it. Yeah, that's it. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Louis F. Perico P-chan awakened momentarily, watching Ranma-chan dash in and out of the ladies room. O.O Scratching his head with a hoof, he then shakes his head, then hops his way onto Ukyou's shoulder. Kuno, still recovering from being smacked, takes a seat next to Ranma- chan, saying nothing since he is still holding an icebag to hid jaw. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? angel_katsuragi I couldn't help but smile a bit when Ran-chan told Akane that she finally had a real fiancee. But when she shook Ran-kun's hand, I noticed the telltale flush that came over Ran-chan's face. I felt a flash of surprise, knowing exactly what was going though her mind. I blush alittle, thinking how wierd it was.... Ran-chan was turned on by herself! -=Akane probably didn't notice...=- I wisper to myself. -=She wouldn't have understood even if she did..=- Although we had a somewhat friendly relationship, I never really thought of Akane as the type to notice or understand sexual desire... I smile as P-chan hops onto my shoulder and nuzzels up to my cheek. I see Ran-chan walk slowly back into the room with her arms covering her chest and her head down. I smile knowingly at Ran-chan when she asks if there is any more food. "Yeah, I'll whip something up real quick!" I stand up and walk to the back of the kitchen, wanting to make something special. I hum happily to myself as I prepair the food with all the care I can muster. >Meanwhile, at the Cat Cafe< "Great-Grandmother!" Shampoo calls from the back of the resturant. "Is anything left for me to do?" Cologne bounces into the kitchen on her staff, and sees that the large room is scrubed spotless. "Well, we're having a slow day... I don't see why not." She says in her gravely voice. "Aiya! Thank you great-grandmother!" Shampoo said happily as she hugged Cologne. "I go ask Ranma out on date!" Cologne smiled. "Here, take this." She said as she pulled a small packet out of her sleeve. Shampoo blinks as she holds the packet up to look at it. "What this?" "Just mix it into Son-in-law's food..." the devilish old hag cackled. "You'll be happy with the... effects." Shampoo smiles and puts the bag into her pocket. "Thank you great- grandmother!" She waved as she ran out. She nimbly jumped onto her bike and started towards the Tendo dojo. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Austin_S_Dakota "Uhh... Ranma," Akane started to ask the male Ranma. "Are you... you know. Are you still cursed, or did, he." Akane pointed towards the female Ranma, "get all of your girl side?" It was funny even now, Akane couldn't think of the other ranma as anything more then a man. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? anonymous09556 Ranma shook his head. "No curse at my end. It... pretty much worked as advertised." Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Austin_S_Dakota "What... What do we do about him?" Akane said pointing at the redhead. "We have to help you, I mean him... I mean..." Ranma, what are we going to do?" Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? anonymous09556 The male Ranma sighed, "I don't know Akane. I just don't know." Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Austin_S_Dakota "What does that mean Ranma," Akane took him by his shoulder and spun him. "What can I do to help?" Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? anonymous09556 He turned, "I don't know, Akane. This isn't something I can fight." OOC: What say the split between the two Ranmas is more than just physical? Suppose the emotional mindset got split too. This way I can get out of playing male Ranma as liking Akane (something I have issues with). Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Cuteycindyhoney Thanks Uk-Chan, you're a real pal." As Ranma sat, she tried to iron out all her confusion. When she saw Akane talking to Saotome, it only seemed to make things worse. Side effects or not, Ranma didn't like seeing the clone guy getting so close to Akane! "Hey Saotome! There's a little problem about living space." she finally shouted. "You had better start looking for a place." Saotome glared at her, and Ranma's anger went far to dispell her weird side effects. They were still there, every time she looked at the guy, but at least for the time being, she could ignore them. "Well you can't expect a cute girl to go live out on the streets, can you? You got the male body, I get a place to stay. It's that simple." It sounded so reasonable to Ranma, but she knew Saotome like a book. "Akane, before you say anything, I have to ask you something." Ranma blushed, and tapped her index fingers together. "I, I don't know how to say this, but, but, I'll need a little help from you." Ranma left her seat, and went to Akane, leaned, and whispered in her ear. "I never stayed as a girl for more then a few days at a time. What happenes, I mean, do I have too..." Ranma spoke very softly, and prayed that Akane wouldn't laugh at her growing fear of the great unknown. "What happens, if I'm stuck like this for more then a month? Will I, you know... monthlies???" She blushed lobster red. "Don't answer that!" she shouted. She couldn't bear to hear yet, just how female her body has become! "Akane! Please let me stay in my own room!" Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? anonymous09556 The male Ranma snorted, "I'll just stay in the dojo, but how're ya plannin' on gettin' the old man out?" Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? angel_katsuragi I overhear the Ranmas and Akane talking about where each of them is going to stay, and I feel a sudden stab of jealously. "Akane's going to have BOTH Ranmas at the dojo..." I say quietly to myself as I prepair the okanamiyakis. I sigh, relizing that it was pointless to argue. I finish the pizzas and carry them out to where everyone is. "Here yah go..." I mutter. "Eat up.." I walk over to the ice box and grab a large container of sake. "I know that this really isn't a time for celebration, but maybe this'll lighten your spirits a bit.." I pour each of them a small cup of sake and slide them across the bar to them. Taking a seat at one of the stools, I slowly sip my own drink. >At that time, half a block away< Shampoo couldn't find Ranma at the dojo, so she decided to try Ukyo's place. "Is only other place he could be." She says merrily to herself. She drove her bike right into the resturaunt, and not seeing anyone, decided to try the kitchen. After running over that kendo idiot, she skidded to a stop just in time to see Ukyo pouring what looked like sake into cups. She looked rather glum.. like she had just heard bad news or something. Shampoo dismissed it from her mind and looked around for Ranma. Her eyes fell on him, in female form right now, sitting against a wall. Akane was close by, looking worried. Shampoo soon saw why.. Ranma looked as if she'd been crying. "Nihao Ranma.. what wrong?" Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? anonymous09556 The male Ranma scowled slightly when Shampoo showed up. He wondered if the Amazons were really dumb enough to think he'd actually choose to become a second-class citizen. Or did they think he was too stupid to realize that? OOC: BTW, angel_katsuragi, I don't want you to take this the wrong way, but your use of first-person perspective is a little... disorienting. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Cuteycindyhoney "OH GREAT!" Ranma shouted. Here was something she never thought of. "How am I gonna tell pop about this?" She grabbed the sake, and gulped it down. "Oh, Hi Shampoo." she said woodenly. "Nothin's wrong, nothin at all." She threw herself into eating her pizza. She had seen the way Ranma had glared at Shampoo, and didn't like it at all. Was she really like that? Was she really so, so nasty? She paused in her eating. "Really, nothing's wrong, Shampoo. What's up?" ***OOC*** I enjoy Angel's use of first person. She does it very well. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Austin_S_Dakota "I can't believe you asked me that, Ranma." Akane said as she down next to the redhead. "Ranma, you will not stay as a girl that long." Akane refused to let Ranma talk of defet. "Come on," it had taken, Akane all of her will power not to punch Ranma into next week when the redhead had asked about... that certin time of the month. "What can we..." "sigh...." Akane just sighed when Shampoo came in. Why was it that when ever she had a chance to help Ranma the other girls always showed up. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? angel_katsuragi **OOC** Um... it really doesn't matter to me what perspective I use... but I seem to write better using first person... so unless it just completely screws up your universe, I'm gonna stay with it. If it bothers you that much though, I'll be glad to switch to third person. **IC** I glance over as Shampoo walks in, and my face immedeitly lights up. "Shampoo! Just the person I wanted to see!" I exclaim. "Could you come here for a sec?" I gently pull her into the back room of the kitchen. "What you doing?" Shampoo asks quickly. "Its about Ran-chan!" I wisper in her ear. Her eyes widen and she follows me willingly into the room. I can feel the eyes of the others drilling into my back, and I turn around and smile at them. "I have an idea!" I mouth so Shampoo can't hear me. I walk into the room and see that Shampoo has found a seat on a large bag of flour. She jumps up when I walk in. "What wrong with Ranma?!" she ask. "Well... its kinda.. complicated..." I scratch the back of my head. "Ran-ch... I mean, Ranma has been split." Shampoo doesn't seem to understand what I mean, so I continue. "His male and female halves have been split apart. Understanding flashes through her eyes, and she makes a dash towards the door. "No! Not yet!" I slam my battle spatula in front of her, splintering the frame of the door like toothpicks. Anger shoots through Shampoo's body and she starts to assume a battle stance. I point the spatula at her, its blade gleaming in the dull light. "Please Shampoo... you may be the only one who can help him..." I plead. "Don't you want to help him?" I lean in closer to her and wisper in her ear. "And besides... we both want Akane out of the way, right?" I say, using her hatred of Akane to my advantage. Shampoo thinks for a moment, sighs, and sits back onto the bag of flour. "What you want me do...?" she asks slowly. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Austin_S_Dakota "Uhh... It looks like something's up Ranma." Akane warned the redhead. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Cuteycindyhoney Ranma didn't notice how close he came to an early departure through the roof. She took a deep breath. "You're right, Akane. I bet this, this thing, will wear itself out, or something." Ranma didn't really beleive that, but she didn't want to stay on as guest of honor, at the pity parade. "Uh-oh." she whispered, when Akane pointed out Uk-Chan, and Shampoo ducking into the kitchen. When those two got together on anything, it usually meant trouble. "Hey, why should we worry now? With any luck, Shampoo will take Saotome and head back to China or somethin', and leave us alone." Us? Ranma blushed. "Um, I don't mean um, you and me, as a couple, or anything!" she stammered. A stray image of her as a girl, embracing Akane, flitted through her mind, and they were both undressed! Damn! Her weird side effects were coming back again! "You gonna eat that?" she muttered, trying to change the subject. She snatched Akane's untouched okinamiyaki, and began to devoure it. Ranma figured that if she kept eating, she wouldn't talk. If she didn't talk, Akane wouldn't send her through the nearest window! Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Austin_S_Dakota Again Akane had to call upon her will power not to crush the redhead against the wall. "US!?" She wanted to ask, to make sure that Ranma did want her. It was so few and far in between that Ranma treated her nice Akane was stunned when it happened. That was why the girl let another chance to get closer to Ranma slip by. "It's not like we actually like each other enough to be a couple or anything," Akane said half daring Ranma to answer the question. Sighing loudly, Akane settled into the set next to the redhead. Watching her eat, Akane was suddenly filled with jealously over the beautiful girl. It wasn't fair that Akane founder her self attracted to a prettier girl.... 'WHAOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where did that thought come from!!!!!!!!!!' Akane thought silently, her face turning as red and Ranma's girl side hair. Reaching out she took the glass and took a big drink, hoping that the action would cover her sudden blush. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? angel_katsuragi "Okay, Shampoo, I want you to go ask your great-grandmother if theres anything she knows that may be able to... oh what the hell, just bring her here!" I exclaim, slapping my forehead. "She'll understand this better than anyone!" Shampoo glanced at me questioningly. "Shampoo go get great-grandmother... but how this help get rid of Akane?" I smile and pat her shoulder. "Don't worry... I have a plan!" That was a lie... I really only cared about getting Ran-chan back to normal. Shampoo leaves through the back door and I start to walk back into the room where everyone is. I stop suddenly, seeing a small packet lieing next to the bag of flour Shampoo was sitting on. "Hm.. she must've dropped it.." I say to myself. Opening it up, I see that its a spice of some sort. I sniff it and find it to have a pleasent smell, so I tuck it into one of my empty spatula holsters. I continue into the main room and heave a sigh of relief. "Okay folks," I say as I rub my hands together. "I think I may have just solved our problem!" Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Cuteycindyhoney "It's not like I haven't tried!" Ranma blurted out, instantly regretting her hasty words. "I mean, every time I try to be nice, you throw me out a window, or something!" She really is cute, when she blushes. Ranma thought, then tried to bury that thought deeply away. She couldn't stop herself from wondering how Akane would look if she blushed, while naked. "Ranma tried hard, tried realy hard to control her anger. She grabbed Akane's hand. "You once offerd to be my friend! What happened to that?" Ranma felt another shiver run up her spine! Was there something wrong with her? "I need a friend now!" she yelled. Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? anonymous09556 The male Ranma watched the antics of the four girls, suddenly feeling very out his element. "I'm your friend, Ranma. If you can't be friends with yourself, who can you be friends with?" Re: Blue Thunder and Piglets? Austin_S_Dakota Akane took at Ranma and couldn't stop the tears from forming in her eyes. "Ra... Ranma, I've been your friend." Akane weakly tried to pull her hand from Ranma's grip. "How can you say I haven't been your friend when you get mad at me for tying to be nice." Akane's blush became darker, deeper then crimson in shade. Holding on to her fiancée's hands Akane's grip suddenly tightened. "What do you want from me, Ranma!?" As upset as Akane was, Ranma almost never held her, and she was afraid to lose that contact. Re: Pigs and Lost Boys Louis F. Perico [ooc: Since all the ladies at the moment despise Kuno, I'm letting him stay in the kitchen with the ice bag for the moment...at this rate he'll NEVER get any H action] Ryoga was in tears when he saw Akane crying for Ranma...true, he hated his rival, and part of him loathed that he was cured, but part was in sorrow with the female Ranma being permanently in the cursed form. "OINK!" he said as he hopped off of Ukyou, shoulder, then ran up the stairs, found a closet, found a storage room, found another room covered in bandages and PPPP PANTIES O.O....only thru sheer luck did he find the furo, then stormed back downstairs, still with a bloody face. "RANMA, AKANE, I, RYOGA HIBIKI, WILL HELP YOU!" he said with fierce determination! Re: Pigs and Lost Boys Austin_S_Dakota "Ry... Ryoga," Akane said. "What were you doing up in Ukyo's bed room?" the girl asked letting go of Ranma's head. Re: Pigs and Lost Boys Louis F. Perico Blushing furiously, Ryoga replied, "Well...It was an honest accident, really...I was just trying to find the toilet, but...." Bowing he then added, "Please forgive me." Re: Pigs and Lost Boys angel_katsuragi I'm sipping my sake when I notice Ryouga walk in... from UP stairs. "Um... Ryouga...?" I look at him questioningly, then I notice something white on his ankle. "What is... that?" I ask, pointing at the object. I kneel down and peer at it. Although they're wet for some reason, I can clearly see what they are. "My.... PANTIES?!" I exclaim, a huge blush covering my face. Everyone stares at us, Ryouga beginning to get another nosebleed, and me gapeing openmouthed at my underwear. Seeing them, I jump in front of Ryouga. "N-nothing! Nevermind!!" I stammer nervously. I laugh alittle and drag Ryouga back upstairs. "Okay, explain it to me... how the hell did my panties get on your ankle...?" I growl. I cross my arms and stand in front of the door. "I won't let you leave untill you tell me..." Re: Pigs and Lost Boys Austin_S_Dakota "Ryoga..." Akane said, not believing that the Lost-Boy would do something so... Hentai. Re: Pigs and Lost Boys anonymous09556 Male Ranma snorted, "I _told_ you he was a pervert." Re: Pigs and Lost Boys Austin_S_Dakota Akane just sat there, quietly. While she knew stuff like that happeded to Ranma often. Akane was also smart enought to know, Ranma never really ment to be there for it to happen. Yet Ryoga was such a nice guy, that it bothered her to think, Ranma might have been right all along. "Ranma," Akane said to the redhead. "Can we go home now?" Re: Pigs and Lost Boys Cuteycindyhoney Ranma held Akane's hand, and fought hard not to cry again. "Akane?" she whispered. It's not too late. Can't we start over? I, um..." She couldn't say what was in her heart. "I mean, I want to be your friend, now more then ever!" That's when Ryoga made his dramatic, but flawed entrance. The eternal lost boy offered to help? Even though it broke her heart, she had to stand up for the dope! "Saotome! You have all my memories! You know Ryoga is hopless when it comes to finding things! If the big dummy got lost, he just got lost! Give the guy a break! Uk-Chan is probably clobbering him right now anyway." She turned to Akane, and forced a smile. "Ryoga is too much of a straight arrow to ever try anything funny with Uk-Chan!" Ranma tried to make light of things, and risked a trip through the roof again. "Now if it was YOUR panties, I'd suspet him of being up to no good. The big dummy has it bad for you, didn't you know that?" Ranma screamed in her mind. Why did she say that? Was she trying to drive Akane away, right into Ryoga's arms? Ranma did something so rare, it astounded even herself. She squeezed Akane's hands tightly. "I'm sorry." she whispered. Ryoga's a good guy, I guess. I shoudn't have said that." Ranma couldn't bring herself to let go of Akane's hands. Dhe had never really held them like this before, and now that it was too late, she didn't want the warm feeling to end. She was stuck as a girl now. How could she ever expect Akane to feel about her, the way she felt? "If you still want to go home, would you mind if I walked with you?" That felt kind of good. It was the closest Ranma had ever come to asking a girl on a date. Re: Pigs and Lost Boys anonymous09556 Male Ranma shot back at his female counterpart, "Hey, he's the jerk taking advantage of our word of honor, sneaking where he's got no business being. And didja forget that damn koi rod already?" He rose and left, "I'm gonna find the old ghoul. Maybe she still has some of that Instant Nannichuan you can use." At the Cat Café angel_katsuragi Shampoo rode her bike quickly back to the Cat Cafe. -=I hope Great- Grandmother has something to help my dear Ranma...=- she thinks worriedly. She turned the corner, and drove the bike right into the resturaunt. "Great-Grandmother!!" she yelled, gasping. Cologne bounces into the room on her staff. "Whats wrong Shampoo dear?" "Ranma in trouble!" Shampoo runs to Cologne and hugs her tightly. "Ranma is split!" Cologne knew what she meant at once. "Hmmm....I may have something in back..." She hops into the kitchen, with Shampoo close behind. It was about that time that Ranma walked in. Re: At the Cat Café anonymous09556 Ranma snuck in through a second-story window. His father may be an idiot, but he knew his sneaking skills, and that invisibility technique was amazing. [TO BE CONTINUED IN THREE SEPARATE THREADS]
