It was a beatuiful day in Nerima.  The birds were chirping and there wasn't a
single cloud in the sky.  

"Ranma wait for me," shouted a black hair girl wearing a blue dress.

"Come on Akane, we don't want to be late.  You still have to deal with Kuno
and the entire male population.  Mind if I lend a hand just this once?"
replied the brown hair young man with a ponytail.

Looking at the clock atop Furinkan High, Akane started to shout "I HATE BOYS,"
but not before thanking Ranma for his help this one time.  They were late and
with Ranma's help it would take half the time it normally would to solve her
morning problems.

As the couple reached the gates of Furinkan High, a massive riot of boys
wearing assorted athletic gear charge at the two.  "Akane I love you.  My
punch of love for you Akane.........."  In less than 2 minutes the ground was
littered with the bodies of the wounded and bruised boys.  

"Ranma, I shall defeat you and free the beautiful Akane from your spell,"
shouted a young man wearing a blue Kendo uniform charging toward Ranma.

"Will he ever give up, it has been a month now.  Kuno I don't have time for
this." shouted Ranma.  With a kick, he sent Kuno face first into the ground.
"Lets go Akane we only have a few more minutes.

As both Ranma and Akane started to head toward the entrance of Furinkan High,
a figure that was hiding in the shadow of the doorway watching the specticle
before him.  "Not so fast you two.  If I win you will tell me what I want to
know, if I lose you will never see me again.  Deal?"  the mysterious boy
asked.  His head still covers by the shadow.

Akane no wanting to be late charged the boy and tried to punch him.  To her
surprised, he moved his head a couple of inches to the right as her puch
missed him.  Akane surprised that she miss didn't notice the boy until he
touched her forehead with a finger and said you lose.  Stepping around Akane,
he walked toward Ranma standing there now in a defensive position.  Stepping
out from the shadow we can see he was a few inches taller than Ranma.  He had
black hair and also a ponytail.  "Nice stance little sister.  Now tell me
where Oyaji is or I will have to beat it from you."

"Ranma surprised at the statement, did not move for a few seconds before
letting her guard down.  "Ranma?  Is it really you?"

Akane did not know what to make of this situation.  A boy out of nowhere just
beated her, called Ranma, a guy, his sister and Ranma knew the stranger for
some reason and called him Ranma.
