Notes: * * - Thoughts
-------- - Short passage of time
< > - Telephone conversation
~Tendo Dojo, Nermia ~
Ranma gasped. "Ryoga?! But I just put that pig in. . . . Hey! Did you happen to
go to a place in China called--erk!" Her sentence was cut short as Ryoga’s fist
shot
towards her. "Die Ranma!!"
Ranma quickly intercepted the fist by with a nearby water dipper. It crashed
through the thin metal, spilling water to the floor but not harming Ranma.
Ryoga
growled in frustration. Ryoga then, at Ranma’s prompting, told his ill fated
tale of
Jusenkyou. By the time he connecting the fact that Ranma and the girl who had
pushed him from the cliff were in fact the same person, he got quit loud.
Ranma, of
course, didn’t want any of the Tendo family running in while Ryoga and she were
in
this sort of situation. So she tried as tactfully as she thought possible to
make
him shut up.
"Hang on a second pig boy!! Don’t go making all that noise unless you want
everyone to come in here! Then they’ll find out your P-chan!" Ryoga was about
to
retort with his usual ‘Die Ranma!’ when it occurred to him that his enemy was
right.
*Damn him! Now he knows I’m P-chan and he’ll probably tell Usagi! She’ll hate
me!*
"Alright Ranma." The bandana clad youth slumped into the furo leaving a
surprised
Ranma at the edge. She quickly climbed in as well so as to make it more of a
man to
man talk.
*Why isn’t he trying to kill me or even argue? I don’t remember much about
him but I do remember his temper!* "Um, Ryoga? Are you okay?" The pig tailed
youth
tilted his head to the side as he waited for an answer.
"No. You wouldn’t be either if your worst enemy just found out you turned
into a pig! Now you’ll probably tell Usagi and she’ll hate me for sure!" He
felt his
heart shattering (AN: as it usually does! *LOL* ) and with an anguished sob
threw
his head into his arms to wash his sorrows away with tears.
Ranma was speechless. *He likes Usagi? But she’s MY fiance!* Ranma was even
more shocked when he realized what it was that had just passed through his
head.
*Am I really jealous of Ryoga because of. . . Usagi? Why?! She’s just a dumb
meatball head!* A single image of the petite blond floated through his head. It
was
of when they had first met and she had tricked him. Her smiling face as she
helped
him up. He sighed. *Could I really be jealous? *
"So, You like Usagi, eh?" Ryoga looked up at his rival. Ranma’s eyes were
narrowed to slits and he had a strange gleam in his eye. The way Ranma was
acting
was making him very nervous. "Ye-yes I do." *Why?! He can’t attack me right
now. . .
. can he? Would he really dare to reveal my secret to the whole Tendo family?!*
Ryoga opened his mouth in shocked fear at the thought. *Would he actually. . .
do
that?*
Ranma chuckled. "Well, Ryoga, you do realize that Usagi is my fiance right? I
mean, it wouldn’t be honorable of you to try and date her since we are already
engaged." He closed his eyes smugly as he smiled. "After all, you wouldn’t want
to
date a stupid kawaii-kune meatball head like her, would you? I think you should
go
after Akane! She’d be a real catch!" *Yeah! A real catch! If you can live
through the
daily beatings!*
Ryoga felt his blood boil. *How DARE he speak about Usagi that way!* Just as
he was about to voice his opinion of Ranma, and where he should spend an
eternity,
there was a faint knock on the door. "Hello? Ranma? Are you done with P-chan
yet?
I want to take him to bed with me." Usagi’s voice was slightly muffled through
the
door but both boys heard what she had to say quite clearly. One was clearly
overjoyed and the other far from it.
*Oh Usagi! Such a sweet kind person! Caring for even a little piglet!* Ranma
was, however, very annoyed. *I wonder if she’d be so eager to cuddle with
P-chan if
she knew he was Ryoga! Stupid perverted jerk! But I can’t tell. It’s not
honorable.*
He did however vow to always keep P-chan on his toes. *After all, I can’t tell
but
who says I can’t show?* The pig tailed boy smiled evilly to himself before
answering.
"I’m just about done meatball head! I’ll bring him around to your room."
Outside the door Usagi was debating on whether or not she should reply at all
but
decided against it. *I’m too tired! We have school tomorrow after all!* She
trudged
wearily to her room, unaware of the jealous boys in the bathroom.
Ranma and Ryoga turned to glare at each other as they heard her footsteps
retreat down the hall. Ranma finally broke the silence. "Okay pig boy, this is
how
things are going to be. I don’t tell about P-chan and you leave Usagi alone. I
don’t
want to hear tomorrow that you really do cuddle with her tonight." Ryoga turned
away, smirking. "Don’t worry Ranma. I’m never going to stoop as low as you."
Ranma’s left eye started twitching. *Alright. That does it!* "Take this P
-chan!" He swung towards Ryoga only to hit air as the other boy dodged out of
the
furo. As luck would have it however, he landed too close to the bucket filled
with
cold water. It toppled over, activating the curse and leaving a shivering
P-chan in
it’s wake.
The startled piglet stared up as Ranma towered over him. "Your pork chops
you stupid jerk!" Ranma again swung at Ryoga but underestimated him because of
his
change. The small animal was able to dodge between his legs and went racing
through
the door and down the hallway, bweeing loudly.
Ranma quickly grabbed a robe from off the hook and took off after him. "Come
back here you dumb coward!" P-chan however just bweed louder as a response.
Usagi,
hearing the sound of the piglet in distress, once again came to the rescue. She
lifted her practice staff high above her head and with a yell of "Ranma! Leave
P
-chan alone!" She knocked him into the wall. Upside down of course.
Usagi casually pushed some of her bangs from her face. "Stupid baka. He
should know better than to pick on a poor little piggy." She turned to the pig
in
question and quickly scooped him up and snuggled him to her chest. "Oh! You
smell so
good now P-chan! Come on. I’m going to show you my room!" She practically
bounced
down the hall, acting just like her namesake.
~Early the next morning~
"Hey! Get up Usagi!" Akane roughly shook her sister. Usagi slowly returned to
the land of the living as she tried to recall what her dream had been about.
She
yawned sleepily and heard an answering yawn to her left. She rolled over,
startled,
and was relieved when she came face to face with a small kawaii face. "Good
morning
P-chan." Usagi whispered with a wink before she finally sat up to face her
sister.
"Why did you get me up so early Akane? School doesn’t start for a few more
hours." She rubbed at her eyes lazily and almost drooped back onto the bad but
Akane swiftly dragged her to her feet. P-chan meanwhile was trying to find his
way
from the tangled up covers of the bed. He wasn’t paying much attention to where
he
was going however since he was still tired.
*That was the best nights sleep I’ve had in awhile. Well, it would’ve been
better if Usagi hadn’t tossed and turned. I guess she was just having a
nightmare
or something.* Little Ryoga shuddered as he recalled his own nightmare. He had
been
lost as usual and when he had finally found his way back to the Tendo dojo he
found
he was in the middle of a wedding. Usagi’s wedding. With Ranma. He had watched
with despair as his one true love had married his greatest enemy. *I won’t let
that
happen though. I'll tell Usagi what I feel for her and hopefully she will feel
the
same way.* He nodded his little black head to emphasize his thoughts and with
the
next step fell off of the bed.
Usagi finished getting dressed just as Ryoga fell from the bed. "I can’t
believe I forgot there was no school today Akane! I was just too tired
yesterday or
something." She shrugged on her small gray jacket and placed her foot on the
top of
the desk so she could tie the shoe better. "So what are we going to do today
Akane?"
The blue haired sister thought for a few moments before she answered. "I
don’t really know Usagi. maybe we could. . .Hey! I know! Let’s go to Juban and
see
how Dr. Tofu’s doing!" Usagi grinned at her sister. "I think that’s what you
were
planning on doing anyway! See how the good Dr. is looking!" Usagi started in
with a
fit of giggles as Akane stared at her with a red face.
"Well, I haven’t seen him since he left for America two months ago! You can’t
blame me for wanting to see him again." Akane’s head snapped up suddenly. "You
want
to go don’t you?" Her tone was almost pleading.
"I don't know sis. I had some shopping planned too. Maybe you can go see Dr.
Tofu and I’ll go to the mall!" The blonds eyes started sparkling happily as she
thought of what she would buy. Akane sweat dropped slightly but finally nodded.
"Okay. You go shopping and I'll drop in on Dr. Tofu and his niece."
Something occurred to Usagi as she finished getting ready by putting on her
crescent moon earrings. "Hey, Akane, you know how his niece wants us to teach
them?" Akane nodded. "Well, I left for my walk before I got all the details on
when
we’re training them and all so. . . . I need you to tell me." Akane smirked.
"Maybe you
just won’t be able to teach with me since you don’t know when it is." Usagi
smirked
back and leaned closer to look her sister in the eye. "So you want Ranma all to
yourself is it?" She giggled slightly at the enraged expression on Akane’s
face.
"What do you mean by that?!" Usagi decided it was time to change the subject.
"Oh just tell me already Akane!" Akane was still angered so told her tersely,
"This
Saturday. That’s in two days since I know you were going to ask." Usagi sweat
dropped.
"How many of them are there in all?" Akane finally calmed down slightly and
finished her preparations to leave by arranging her long hair behind her
shoulders.
"Four. They’re all our age so maybe we’ll make some friends at the same time."
P-chan had been listening to the conversation with a distracted attention. *So
they’re going to Juban? Isn’t that where Setsuna is? They might get attacked!
I’ll
have to go to protect them!* He stood boldly but seemed to have forgotten that
he
had positioned himself behind the door. That, however, became obvious to him
when
it suddenly slammed him into the wall.
Ranma rushed into the room. "Hey, Usagi, there’s someone at the door for
you." He rushed back out. Usagi was puzzled. "Really? But it’s only 6:30? Who
would
be here now?" Akane shrugged at her and they both started out the door. Ryoga,
wedged behind the still wide open door, bweed slightly in discomfort. He was
rewarded by a smiling Usagi picking him up and carrying him snuggled tightly to
her
chest.
*I wonder who wants to talk to Usagi at this hour.* He stared straight
ahead, all his senses on alert as he tried to figure out if it was an enemy
behind the
slightly open door, or a friend. Usagi held him tightly with one hand as she
reached
for the door and pulled it open, a smile already on her face.
"Hello! What can I hel---PUU?!!" There in the entryway stood the senshi of
time. Sailor Pluto. The green haired woman looked quite understandably
surprised.
"Princess?! You recognize me?!" Akane stared and Ryoga just. . . fainted.
