* represents thoughts 
***********

	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.
