Part 1: "Far From Home"
It was business as usual at
the Tendo residence. Ryoga and Ranma at each others throats.
"Ranma!"
"Ryoga, I'm sorry... I didn't...
think she'd... be... home so... soon! Stop trying to hit me with that stupid
umbrella!"
"I'm going to smash your head
in with this stupid umbrella!"
"Ryoga she didn't see you...
turn... into a... pig!"
"But she almost did! If she
had walked in two seconds earlier she would have seen me turn into a pig!"
"Was it my fault I lost my
balance and spilled a bucket of water on you."
"You didn't lose your balance,
you did it on pupose!"
"Ranma! Ryoga! What are you
two fighting about now?", Akane asked.
"See", Ranma whispered, "she
didn't see you turn into a pig. 'Cause if she did she'd be clawing your
eyes out for all the nights she slept with her precious P-chan."
Ryoga growled. "Akane, I'm
glad you're here I have to tell you something."
"Yes, Ryoga?"
"I have to go on a trip and
I don't know when I'll be returning."
"Oh, please we all know he'll
be back later, ready to jump in bed with you.", Ranma said under his breath.
"What did you say?", Akane
asked.
"Shut up Ranma! Good bye, Akane.",
Ryoga said as he headed for the gate.
"Ryoga!", Akane called out.
"Ranma this is all your fault! Why do you always have to pick on him?",
Akane asked.
"Why do you always have to
take his side?! I mean, if you only knew...", Ranma stopped.
"If I only knew what?", Akane
asked.
"Nothing.", Ranma said.
"I'm going upstairs.", Akane
said.
Ranma walked outside and started
thinking. When is that moron going to figure out Ryoga and P-chan are the
same person, Ranma thought. I mean she's had more than her share
of clues and she still hasn't figured it out. Maybe she knows and actually
likes Ryoga, Ranma thought.
"That stupid jerk! Why does
he do those things to me in front of Akane. If she ever found out my secret,
she'd hate me.", Ryoga thought. "I'll eventually tell her, but... why is
this floor moving? In fact, I've never been here before. Maybe that guy
over there knows something." Ryoga walked over to the man. "Excuse me,
could you tell me where I am?"
The man looked at Ryoga puzzled.
"Come again?"
"Would you mind telling me
where I am?", Ryoga repeated.
"A... well you're on ship.",
the man answered.
"What!", Ryoga exclaimed.
"You mean you didn't know you
were on a ship?", the man asked.
Ryoga, not wanting to look
like an idiot, responded, "Of course I did."
The man walked away. "A ship?',
he thought." I guess I was so distort that I didn't realize I was on a
ship. How am I ever going to get back home!?", he cried out loud.
It had been two weeks and Ryoga
was still gone. Akane had been nagging Ranma to go look for Ryoga, but
Ranma kept saying he'd be back in a week or so. However, Akane couldn't
seem to shake a bad feeling she had. Two more weeks pass and no sign of
Ryoga.
"Ranma, it's been a month and
Ryoga's still not back. What if something happened to him?"
"Nay, don't worry Akane Ryoga
always finds his way home."
However, this time Ryoga was
far from home. In fact a few continents away. Ryoga was completely lost
and from what he could understand he was in North America, however where
exactly was a complete mystery to him. He was tired, sleepy, hungry, and
extremely home sick. However he walked along hoping he would come across
a town. Finally, his prayers were answed, he saw a sign ahead. Sunnydale,
he read, sounds peaceful.
"Ranma! Ranma! I got a letter
from Ryoga!"
"What's it say?"
"Dear Akane,
How are you? I'm fine, I guess.
It seems I got on a ship and wound up in North America. I walked around
and got lost."
"There's a shocker.", Ranma
said.
"Shut up Ranma! Well, anyways
I..."
"Geez, sorry."
"That's what the letter says."
Akane kept reading,"Well, anyways I'm approaching a town called 'Sunnydale'.
I'll write to you in a few days to let you know how I am doing.
Ryoga."
"So I guess he's okay.", Akane
said.
"I guess so.", Ranma agreed.
