As Ranma landed in the pond again,she began to get angry 
after all she hadn't done anything wrong - all she had done 
was to say hello Akane! Then she got sent straight up by 
way of the Tendo Hammer Express. Before she could get 
inside to talk to Akane,Shanpoo came out of nowhere and 
glomped her then when she had peeled Shampoo off Kodachi 
jumped down and attacked her trying as usual to kill her, 
All this happening in front of Akane, who leaned out and 
said I hope you're happy you pervert, you honorless piece 
of trash, you and your four fiances,you no brained idiot.
 Getting really angry Ranma threw Kodachi about a half mile 
up and out. She then stalked in the kitchen and stomping up 
to  Akane she said listen if you don't get control of that 
temper I won't have you as a fiance or a friend. I like 
Nabiki and Kasumi but you are getting to be a real pain to 
be around. She then left the room and went upstairs 
figuring to get some hot water from the bathroom on the 
way.
  Akane just stood there and shook so angry she couldn't 
move let alone speak. After afew minutes she turned to her 
sister and said did you hear that-She had the nerve to say 
that to me!
  Kasumi just stared and said I wonmdered how long it would 
take for Ranma to get angry the way you have treating him. 
I am surprised it didn't happen a long time ago. As Akane 
stared she added frankly I amd amazed Ranma hasn't moved 
out before this.
  The next morning before Ranma went into the bathroom he 
carefully checked for the occupied sign not seeing it he 
went in and began to prepare for his morning bath, when 
Akane jumped out of the tub and swinging her mallet knocked 
Ranma out of the room.
  Okay that's it, Pop I am leaving are you coming with me 
or are you staying here with these Tendo's. Going to his 
room he carefully packed his stuff and going into a sealed 
bag he pulled out about aten thousand dollars in 
travelllers checks and going to Nabiki's room knocked on 
the door. When she opened it he handed her the checks 
saying here these plus what you made off of me should 
covber all the expenses plus a reasonable price for room 
and board.
 Going back to his room he finished packing. Going uop to 
his father, he agaain asked are you coming or not Pop? His 
dad shook his head and held up a sign what about the 
promise you would marry into the Tendo family.
 Yelling as loudly as he could "everybody come here Now"
RAnma exoplained that he planned to leave unless somebody 
other than Akane wanted to marry him NOW!
 Both girls shook their heads no.
 SO Ranma left and going to see his last fiancee told Ukyou 
that he was leaving Nerima permantly today.
 Ukyou ,no fool didn't argue she just packed the 
esessentials and said "WE'RE going" . 
 And that was the last anybody in Nerima ever saw of Ranma 
Saotome or his fiancee.

comments welcomed shucks any thing (almost) will be 
welcomed this was my addition to the hour challenge.
I know it needs a lot of work but what did you think of it 
as a beginning. this was a concept I have had in back of my 
mind for a while. Ranma getting fed up and walking out with 
his best friend going with him.
