Ranma story idea

This happens BEFORE Ranma's mother is introduced. ie about vol 16-20 in
the manga.

Ranma: Come back here, Happosai!

Akane: We have to catch him. He made some sort of youth potion. It makes
you 30 years younger!

Happosai, Ranma, and Akane go into a restaurant fighting each other.
Happosai, knowing they won't give up until they destroy his potion,
switches it with some tea in the shop. They leave the shop.  They catch
him, grab the glass, and Akane accidently drinks it. Ranma is frightened
that Akane will suddenly be a baby or not even born, when Akane
announces all she drank was tea. They realize what Happosai has done,
rush back to the restaurant, just in time to see Saotome Nodoka drink
her "tea".

They watch as she turns into a young girl age 7-10. The transformation
confuses her and Ranma and Akane try to help her out. In the process
they tell her their names and such. They offer to take her home.

The question?
Did the transformation take her back to when she was a young girl. ie
she has NO memories of the last 30 years.
Or did the transformation only confuse her for a short time and she DOES
remember the last 30 years.

 I can see the story being written either way. The second question
probably makes more sense, but. As far as fixing Nodoka I asume Cologne
can come up with something, but who knows?

Working 70+ hours a week really makes writing difficult.
Hopefuly somebody will like this idea and will do something with it.
