<Alright, I'm sending this fan-fic along that a good friend of mine wrote.
Enjoy it.>

Ever wonder what would happen if Akane and Ranma got married? And what about
the lost love between Ukyo and Ryouga? Well, read on...and you'll get a
first-rate view of a writer's mind of how it might have been....

Both girls giggled as they helped each other get ready. Akane held the silk
veil high in the air, placing the encircle of lace around Ukyo's head. Ukyo
turned to face Akane, a warm smile enveloping her face.
"I can't believe we're doing this, can you Akane?" Akane smiled and looked
down at her hand. She lightly ran her hand over the shinning emerald stone in
her engagement ring.
"No, I can't. It''s a... a dream come true." She looked back up at Ukyo, a
small tear in her eyes.  They hugged each other closely, knowing after this,
they would be closer then ever before. "At least we're doing this together,
as we planned we would." Akane looked up at her.
"Yes, we are, and I'm glad you're here to guide me through."
"Me too sugar." Ukyo took her hands to her head. "Is it straight?" Akane
watched her fuss over the headband she placed on her head.
"As even as it's going to get. Don't worry, you look great."
"Thanks, Akane." Both walked over to Akane's full-length mirror. As Ukyo took
to her ears with a pair of diamond earrings, Akane watched her carefully. As
she set the other earring in her ear, Ukyo gently opened her palm where a
diamond necklace laid in her lace gloved hand. She carefully placed in
Akane's out stretched hands. "Can you help me put it on?" Akane admired the
necklace closely.
"Of course." 

"Geez Ryouga, will you ditch the damn headband, just today?" 
"I can't, I've always worn this headband." Ryouga stammered slightly as he
adjusted the bow on his collar.
"Come on man, just today." Ranma walked up to Ryouga and yanked the headband
from his head.
"There...now you look persentable." Ryouga rubbed his forehead.
"Yeah... I guess." Ryouga sighed and sat down, holding his head in his hands.
"I can't believe, finally...I've waited so long for this day." Ranma looked
down at Ryouga as he adjusted the rose in his lapel.
"You're telling me man. It's now or never...and I prefer always with Akane."
Ranma blushed slightly as he thought of Akane. It had finally came to this,
the one day, where it will all come down to one thing.
"Same here with Ukyo. I love her dearly, and she knows that. She and I have
waited for this day, and it has arrived. I'm glad to spend the rest of my
life with her." Ryouga smiled warmly and looked up at Ranma. He rose from his
seat and stood before Ranma. "Good luck Ranma." He held out his hand firmly.
"You too Ryouga." Ranma shook his hand firmly. "And good luck with Ukyo.
You'll need it. She's a feisty one." Ryouga chuckled softly. 
"Don't I know it. She's feisty alright, and you watch yourself with Akane.
She's no safer..."
"You're telling me." Ranma rolled his eyes and smiled. "She's a tomboy
alright...but I can handle her."
Outside the comotion had quieted down, and a familiar tune filled their ears.
"Oh man, it's time!" Both boys ran top speed out the door, adjusting their
jackets as they ran outside.

Akane and Ukyo's eyes grew wide as they heard the same tune. They held each
other's hands and squealed with delight.
"It's time Akane!" Ukyo smiled warmly as she hugged Akane.
"Yes, let's hurry!" Both girls held the front of their dress up and walked
out of Akane's room, careful not to trip over their the long lace veil that
trailed behind them.

Ranma and Ryouga ran past the crowd of guests up to the altar, catching their
breath.
"You came close, Ranma my boy." Ranma gave his father a stern look.
"You think I'd be late to my ow-..." Ryouga tugged roughly at Ranma's sleeve.
"What Ryou-..." Ryouga pointed straight ahead of them, his face
expressionless. Ranma looked down the altar where Akane and Ukyo stood,
awaiting to walk down the aisle. Both girls held their head low , their faces
hidden behind their silk veils. Both walked slowly up the aisle, each in even
pace with each other. Ranma's mouth fell agape, but he slowly brought it back
to place. Ryouga started to blush slightly, feeling a tight lump in his
throat. The girls finally made thair way up to the altar, Ukyo taking her
place next to Ryouga, and Akane to Ranma's side. Ryouga looked down gently at
Ukyo and slowly lifted her veil from her face. He smiled warmly as he looked
into her eyes. Ukyo blushed slightly, her cheeks flushing a redish hue. Ranma
slowly lifted the veil from Akane's face, gently taking the lace between his
fingers. Akane beamed up at Ranma, her eyes glistening brightly in the
afternoon sun. He admired her closely, never seeing her this beautiful
before.
"You're so...beautiful Akane." Akane bowed her head slightly.
"Th-thank you Ranma. You look quite handsome yourself." Ranma blushed and
nervously tugged at his bow.
"May we proceed?" The preacher broke the silence between the two couples. All
four looked straight ahead, concentrating on him. 
"Dearly beloved,we are gathered here today to join these two couples together
in wholy matramony." Ranma took Akane's hand is his, caressing her hand
gently. She smiled slightly, but kept herself focused. 
"Do you, Akane Tendo, take Ranma to be you lawfully wedded husband, to have
and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?"
"I do."
"And do you , Ranma Saotome, take Akane to be your lawfully wedded wife, to
have and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?" Ranma
took Akane's hands in his.
"I do."
"Do you, Ukyo Kunoji, take Ryouga, to be your lawfully wedded husband, to
have and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?" Ukyo
blushed slightly as she looked up at Ryouga.
"I do."
"And do you, Ryouga Hibiki, take Ukyo to be your lawfully wedded wife, to
have and to hold, in sickness and in health, to death do you part?"
"I do." Ryouga smiled down at Ukyo, squeezing her hand gently.
"The rings please." The preacher gestured toward Kuno and Mousse which held
the rings on small red velvet pillows. Kuno slowly walked up to Ranma and
Akane, mumbling quietly under his breath. "I will smite thee Ranma Saotome,
but due to the day's events, you..." Ranma smirked up at Kuno. Kuno closed
his mouth and held out the pillow. Mousse walked up to the preacher,
carefully holding it out ot him while bowing.
"Excuse me son, but I'm not getting married." The preacher chuckled ot
himself.
"Hey duck boy..." Ryouga gestured to him to come to him. "Over here." Mousse
cautiously made his way over to Ryouga and Ukyo, holding the pillow out in
front of him.
"Heh, sorry."  Ryouga carefully took the wedding band off the pillow and
turned back to look at Ukyo. He took her hand in his palm and carefully held
the ring in the other.
"With this ring, I thee wed..." Ryouga carefully slipped the ring on her
slender finger. Ukyo took the other ring and took Ryouga's hand in hers.
"With this ring, I thee wed..." Slowly she slid the ring on his finger,
gently holding his hand after she finished. Ukyo caught glance of Akane
slipping the ring on Ranma's finger, and she knew the time had finally come
to make it true. Ryouga took Ukyo's hand in his, smiling softly down at her.
"I love you."
"And I you, always and forever." Both held each other close. Ranma brought
Akane close to him, noticing her eyes had begun to tear.
"I-I love you Ranma." Ranma smiled warmly at her.
"I love you too Akane, always...for the rest of my life."
"I now pronounce you..." Akane's eyes teared over as Ranma drew her even
closer. Ukyo looked up into Ryouga's eyes and smiled. He drew her closer, his
hands caressing the lace of her dress. "husband and wife. You may kiss the
bride."  Ryouga drew Ukyo to him and kissed her gently. He slowly ran his
fingers through her hair, feeling the silk bows that held her hair, careful
not to disturb them. Ranma took Akane's chin and brought her close. He kissed
her, feeling her hair brush against his face. Akane took his face in her
hands, holding him steady. Everyone cheered as they kissed. Soun could be
heard over everyone, crying on Nabiki's shoulder.
"Daddy, please. You're getting tear stains all over my dress!" She yanked her
shoulder out from under him, and he fell to the ground, continuing to sob.
Genma held Nodoka closely to him, smiling brightly. 
"That's our boy." Nodoka grasped her sapuku blade close to her chest.
"No, he's not our boy anymore. He is now a man." Ranma looked to his mother
and father. He smiled, as they returned the glance. He brought his glance
back to Akane.
"So, we're finally married, are we?"
"You could say that." Akane held her hand up closely. She admired the gold
wedding band. Intricate detailing of lace surounded it. Smiling warmly, she
hugged Ranma. Ryouga contined to kiss Ukyo for quite some time now. They
hadn't noticed Akane and Ranma watching them. For that matter, everyone else.
All eyes went to Ukyo and Ryouga, waiting to see how long they could go.
"Maybe we should clock them." Mousse took a stopwatch out from his tux.
"We already have 2 minutes..." Everyone held their breath, some giggling like
children. Akane adn Ranma also watched them slowly. 
"You think we could take them?" A grin took over Ranma's face.
"I know we can." Akane took Ranma's face to hers and kissed him. Both couples
we're at a standstill. 
Mousse looked to a glance at his stopwatch. "I've now got 5 minutes...cripes.
Haven't they ever heard of breathing?" Just then Ukyo and Ryouga began to
tremble slightly. Quickly they seperated, gasping for air. Akane and Ranma
still contiued to kiss, seeming to enjoy it more than compete. Ukyo smirked
at Ryouga.
"You're so fresh, you know that?" Ryouga smiled.
"I know, but that's why you love me right?"
"In more ways then one sugar." She raised herslf on tippytoe and pecked him
on the lips.
"Come on, you can do better than that." He grabbed her around the neck and
kissed her.
"8 minutes in counting. Well, there go's the reception." At that instant both
couples released from their grip on each other. Smiling at each other, they
had settled their friendly competition. As Ranma escourted Akane down the
aisle, Ryouga watched carefully.
"Hm... Ryouga's eyes flashed a hint of mischief.
"Ryouga..." Ukyo knew that glare. Suddenly Ryouga swept Ukyo off her feet and
ran down the aisle with her. Both laughed with delight as he jumped atop the
dojo and held her. Ryouga knew that Ranma could not back down from a friendly
challenge. Ranma watched them high above. Taking Akane in his arms, he
bounded up next to them. Smiling, he held Akane firmly.
"Want to race?" Ryouga grinned, exposing a fang under his upturned lip.
"Anytime... Ready?"
"Always." Both girls stared at each other.
"Uh.."
"Oh..." Akane finished off just as Ranma and Ryouga steadied themselves on
the edge of the roof.
Ukyo held tightly to Ryouga. 
"Ryouga honey, you know how I am about heights..." Ryouga looked down and
smiled reasuringly.
"Don't worry, I won't drop you." He held her close and steadied himself.
Looking at Ranma, he smirked.
"Ready? Set..." Ranma jumped off the roof before Ryouga could finish. "Hey!"
Quickly he jumped off the edge, following close behind Ranma. Ranma jumped
from table to table, just missing disturbing anything that sat on them.
Jumping up high in the air, he stuck his tongue out at Ryouga.
"Nyah! You can't catch u-" Not noticing where he had jumped, he landed right
in the wedding cake. Ryouga not noticing either, didn't have enough time to
stop, crashing in right behind them.
"Hiyah!" Shampoo screamed as she saw her cake destroyed by them. "You destroy
cake Shampoo make for you on special day, and you repay her by destroying
cake?" Ranma peeked his head out of a pile of blue frosting and looked down
at Shampoo. He threw a small piece of cake at her that hit her square in the
nose. 
"Thanks Shampoo." Akane appeared next to him, wiping frosting off her nose.
She took it to her mouth to taste it.
"Mmm...pretty good." Stickning her finger in the frosting again, she smuged a
little on Ranma's nose. Giggling, she watched  as he crossed his eyes to look
at the icing on his nose. Ukyo appeared out from a pile of cake and icing. 
"W-where's Ryouga?" 
"Right here." She rose higher in the air as Ryouga raised her in his
shoulders.
"So there you are sugar!" She smugged some cake into his hair playfully.
Giggiling, she took a handful of cake and chucked it at Ranma. Ranma dodged
just in time, but unfortunately Akane got hit square in the face. Akane
remained silent, wiping the cake from her face. Staring at Ukyo, she grabbed
a chunk of cake. 
"Food fight!" Hurling the cake at Ukyo, she missed, hitting Soun. "Oh, sorry
daddy!" Smiling, she grabbed another piece. Everyone ripped out throwing cake
at each other. At one point everyone forgot about the mess. Ryouga hoisted
Ukyo off his shoulders and held her close.
"My, blue frosting looks lovely on you sugar." Ryouga chuckled.
"Everything looks good on you." Drawing her close, they kissed passionately.
Ranma noticed Ukyo and Ryouga, and grabbed Akane around the waist.
"Hey there sweet stuff...having fun?" Akane moved close to him and put her
arms around his neck.
"In a few minutes I will be." Drawing him close, she kissed him. Both couples
continued to kiss, ignoring everything that went on around them.
"Oh, not again..." Mousse sighed to himself, grasping the stopwatch firmly in
his hand. " 30 seconds in counting..."
