Skuld bit her lip and sighed as she sat down in
the dull, empty room. She had waited so long for this
day, and all Skuld could do was sit in that room until the
phone rang. Skuld perked up as she heard a soft voice calling,
"Anyone home?"
Skuld ran towards the voice and threw herself into
the arms of her older sister, Belldandy. "I thought you would
be out until later, sis!"
Belldandy replied as she walked in, "Keiichi and Megumi
went to work on the motorcycles, and I thought I would come
home to keep you company." She walked into the room.
Skuld looked after her sister. "No calls yet.." She
trailed off and looked down at her hands, realizing she had been
twisting a towel in her hands nervously.
"Skuld, don't worry. Just remember what we taught you
to do, and everything will go just fine! I promise!" Belldandy
smiled at her younger sister. "Meanwhile, I'll go cook some lunch."
"Belldandy, do you need any help?" Skuld asked, willing
to do anything to get her mind off the phone. *Of course not.
Belldandy never needs help in the kitchen.*
Belldandy smiled. "It would be best if you wait by
the phone, I'll be out with lunch!" Belldandy walked into the kitchen.
Skuld sighed again and sat down at the table, stopping
to close the door. She put the wrinkled towel on the table and
began to wait impatiently. *I'm just glad Urd isn't here to taunt
me.*
***********
Ranma-kun was walking home slowly. Kasumi was away,
meaning that Akane would cook. Ranma-kun shuddered. *Why does that
uncute tomboy have to cook? I think I'll just disappear until
dinner is over. I-*
"RANMA!" A purple-haired girl attached herself to him,
interuppting his thoughts.
"Hey--Hey Shampoo!! Get off me!"
"Ranma come to eat ramen!!" Shampoo exclaimed, still
attached.
Ranma-kun stopped trying to get Shampoo off and
considered. Akane was cooking tonight, and Ranma-kun would eat
Shampoo's ramen anytime. "Sure, Shampoo!"
Shampoo beamed with delight and grabbed Ranma-kun's
hand. She began to pull Ranma-kun down the street, until Ukyou
jumped out of nowhere and glared at Shampoo. "What are you doing
with MY Ranma honey?" Then, turning to Ranma-kun, Ukyou said
sweetly, "I heard Akane was cooking, and you can come to Ucchan's
and have some okonomiyaki with me!"
Shampoo glared at Ukyou with sheer malice. "Ranma say
he eat ramen for dinner! Ukyou not welcome!"
Ukyou turned around to face Shampoo. "No way MY Ranma-honey
is going to eat ramen for dinner! He's eating my okonomiyaki!"
Ranma-kun backed away from the two girls that were
facing off. "I fight for Ranma!"
Ukyou smiled, "Why would I need to fight? His heart
belongs to me!"
Shampoo exclaimed, "What you talk about? Ranma love
Shampoo! Ranma no love Ukyou!"
Ranma-kun turned around and closed his eyes. He would
rather make up an excuse NOT to eat Akane's cooking than watch
two girls fight over him. "Hey!" He yelled, "I'm going home to
eat!" With that, Ranma-kun jumped up to the fence and ran off in
the direction of the Tendo home.
Both Shampoo and Ukyou yelled simultaneously. "WAIT!"
However, Ranma-kun was already out of sight. Ukyou turned to Shampoo.
"Now look what you've done! You scared my Ranma-honey off!"
Shampoo's eyes narrowed, "Shampoo not scare Ranma off.
Ukyou scare! Why Ukyou always in Shampoo's way?"
A blue chi began to form around Ukyou. "What did you
say? Ranma wouldn't run away from me. He would run away from
you."
Shampoo took a fighting stance. She took a deep breath
and released it slowly. She struck at Ukyou, but Mousse had
jumped in front of Shampoo, trying to protect her. Mousse
slammed into the wall, as Ukyou jumped away. Turning around,
she yelled, "Ranma loves me! I'm his fiancee! We'll finish
this some other time!"
Shampoo shook her fist at Ukyou, as Mousse smiled at
Shampoo. "I.. I will protect you Shampoo.." Mousse fainted.
Shampoo shook her head at Mousse. "Mousse! Stop try
to protect Shampoo! Shampoo can protect herself!" And hauled
him back to the Nekohanten.
****************
"Where is everyone?" Akane sat alone at a table full
of burnt food. She sighed and began to clean up. She admitted to
herself, after tasting her food, that she couldn't cook. After scraping
the charred remains of noodles off the last plate, Ranma-kun
staggered in. Thinking Akane had left and wasn't home, he dialed out
for some food, mumbling how terrible Akane's cooking was.
Akane wandered into the room. She was about to greet
Ranma-kun when she heard all the things he was saying about her
food. Scrunching up her face, she promptly blindly grabbed the
closest object to her, which was Kasumi's pitcher of water and
smashed it over Ranma-kun's head. It shattered and Ranma-kun was
now Ranma-chan, with two red bumps next to the other wounds on
her head.
Akane picked up the phone from the fallen Ranma-chan,
expecting Shampoo or Ukyou to answer. Instead, she heard a quiet
little quivering voice saying, "You have reached the Relief Goddess
Office. We will be there in just a moment to grant your access
request." With a click, the little voice hung up.
Akane stood there a moment, wondering what that was
about. She put the phone back in the receiver and looked down at
Ranma-chan. Shaking her head, she walked off to her room,
glancing back once before she closed the door.
"Urggh..." Ranma-chan sat up slowly and rubbed her
head. Akane had been especially annoyed with him lately, so her
vision was blurry and she couldn't think or walk straight. After
walking into the wall several times, Ranma-chan entered the
kitchen and leaned against the refrigerator, dozing
off.
Suddenly, the sink faucet turned and cold water began
to fill up the sink. Ranma-chan awoke to the sound of the water.
Running forward, she fumbled for the handle, but the water began
to ripple violently. A beam of light illuminated the water and a
young girl began to rise out of the water. Frightened, Ranma-chan
stumbled backwards, slipped, and fell to the floor. The girl, had
her arms folded across her chest, appeared to be no older than
12 stood on the counter, with her eyes closed. She had strange
blue markings on her face, extremely long, black, shiny hair, and
carried a mallet. Hopping off the counter, she opened her big
brown eyes and announced, "I am Skuld of the Relief Goddess Office!
I will grant one wish, and only one! Are you Mr. Ranma Saotome?" Skuld
bit her lip. *Mr.? That's a girl I'm talking to! I should have
remembered!*
Ranma-chan was still on the floor, staring at Skuld. Her
eyes were round as she stumbled to get up. "Y...Y..You're a
goddess? I..I.. A wish..? Anything?"
Skuld nodded. "Anything!" She held out her hand to
help Ranma-chan up.
Ranma-chan hesitated to take the girl's hand, but
looking into her cheerful face, she promptly stuck her hand out
and stood up. Walking into the living room, Skuld lifted her hands
and a fluffy white couch appeared. Skuld sank into its fuzziness,
sighing. Ranma-chan leaned on the side of the couch. "I know what
I want to wish for."
Skuld leaned forward in surprise. "You.. you do? I..uh.. sure!"
*Belldandy and Urd told me that they usually take more time to
decide. Maybe I just didn't pay attention.* "But, please, I can't
take back wishes. Make sure it is what you want!"
Ranma-chan nodded her head enthusiastically. "Yup! Sure
do!! I wish that you would make me stay in this gender forever!!"
Ranma-chan said it quickly, not stopping to think about anything else.
Skuld stood up and the sofa vanished, sending Ranma-chan
to the ground. "I.. I don't understand.."
Ranma-chan, having now countless wounds on her head,
and now landing facefirst into the ground, mumbled, "Just make
my wish come true!"
Skuld nodded slowly. "Okay.." Placing Ranma-chan in
the middle of the room, she cleared the living room and began
to draw on the ground. Pulling out a computer, she analyzed
the drawings on the floor. "Okay, we're ready to begin!"
"W..Wait!" Ranma-chan panicked. "What's all this
on the floor?" She paused. Something about her didn't add up.
*Why don't I feel like a..?*
Skuld replied, "My magic is not as strong as it will
become. I need help from my computer and glyphs to help me."
Skuld raised her arms and began to chant some incantation,
pausing only to comment, "Don't move, Ranma!" Lights began to
shoot up around the circle Skuld had drawn on the ground as she
chanted. Akane stepped out of the room, and was instantly entranced
by the soft light. "Ranma!" She called out.
Ranma-chan opened her eyes and looked at Akane. "Stay
there!" After shouting to Akane, Ranma-chan suddenly noticed too
late that he was a She! "SKULD! STOP THE SPELL!! I--"
Skuld opened her eyes in surprise. Her concentration
broken, the glyph on the ground started to absorb the light.
Ranma-chan lunged forward, attempting to reach Skuld and Akane
to protect them. The glyph sent out the light in one blast,
throwing Akane, Ranma-chan, and Skuld to the ground.
