Chapter 21
 
[Under the Bridge, Late Afternoon]
 
Nodoka: (Smiling) You can stop pretending now, Ranma. I know
 your curse; you told me yesterday, remember? (Looks at Ranma-chan's
 face) Ranma! You're crying!

Hooo Boy!!!

 
 
 
(Cut to a nameless street)
 
 
(Ranma is carrying his backpack, and mentally preparing himself for
 a long trip. He looks up at the sky, and stares at the full moon; another
 image pops up in front of him, this one of Akane smiling, eyes shinning
 and holding a flower Ranma had just given her)

I'd have loved to see him bumping into Royoga ...but maybe that's to 
convienient...
 >  

 
(He turns around rapidly, Akane's arms still around him. Not expecting
 this, Akane trips, and P-Ran quickly puts her on top of him so that she
 won't take the impact of hitting cement. As it runs out, when Akane falls
 on top of P-Ran so does her face onto his, giving the impression that
 they're kissing. The two, in shock, remain for a second like that. When
 Akane is about to get up...)
 
Voice: Hey. (Akane looks up and sees Ranma) Just don't rub it in by
 invitin' me to the wedding, ok?

I knew their was a logical (sort-of) explanation.

 
 
Akane: (Staring up at the ceiling) *Baka baka baka baka baka baka
 baka x10. Why can't you ever listen, Ranma? Just two seconds, and
 you would have understood... Oh, great, I can't go to sleep because
 of the jerk.* (Gets up) *I'll get a glass of milk...*

I wonder if half of thos "baka"s aren't directed at herself?

 (Akane goes down to the kitchen. On the kitchen table is a folded letter,
 addressed to her) *Odd... when did this get here?* (She opens the card,
 her eyes widen and turns VERY pale at the contents) *Ranma, no!*
 (She runs out the kitchen, leaving the letter flutter onto the ground.
 It reads simply:)
 
(       'Good-bye, Akane')
 
[The scene fades]

Nice.... in a painful sort of way.
