And I got to wondering what would happen if more than one of the
characters made the wish. Instead of having Ranma start over from
scratch with Akane (with some knowledge of the future and the other
characters), or Akane starting over with Ranma,
Ok here's an idea,
Set a couple of months after the end of the manga, Nerima chaos levels have
reached an all new high. After the failed wedding the other fiancees have
become more aggressive esp. Ukyou who after trying to hurt Akane at the
wedding has lost her friendship with Ranma. Shampoo is getting desperate to
get Ranma and has become more violent towards Ranma when he refuses her
advances. Akane is angry at Ranma for not putting a stop to the fiancee
situation, also angry at the other girls who see Akane as the number one
obstacle to Ranma and are starting fights with Akane because of this. Ranma
is depressed (to the point that he could throw a shi-shi-hoko-dan if he
*really* needed to) and tries his best to avoid the others. Ryouga is back to
trying to beatup Ranma as he thinks Ranma is not protecting Akane from the
others. Kuno is not much different apart from sharpening his bokken and
proposing to Akane and his pig-tailed goddess every time he sees them.
Kodatchi now runs around in her wedding dress (for when she catches up to her
Ranma-sama). Mousse is same old Mousse although he got a new shipment of
chains equipped with small bombs.
Meanwhile Happosai has found a bracelet that is said to "grant one what they
truly desire" and what does the pervert truly desire, to be waited on by his
favourite student/servant girl of course.
The two fathers seeing the situation between Akane and Ranma going downhill
send them to live at the Saotome home with Nodoka. Nibiki who decides she
needs a bit of cash sells the others (including Happosai, he finds out first)
the location of Ranma (+Akane and Pig-tailed girl for Kuno).
Happosai arrives at the Saotome house where he finds Ranma practicing in the
yard, he splashes Ranma, grabs on to her chest and slaps the bracelet on her.
(what you thought Happosai would put the bracelet on first!) The outcome of
this is Happosai achieves orbit. Akane and Nodoka wondering what the noise
was enter the yard at the same time all of the others arrive, Ukyou and
Shampoo fighting each other and demanding Ranma pay attention to them, Mousse
and Ryouga fighting Ranma, Kodatchi attacking Akane and the Pig-tailed hussy,
Kuno trying to attack Mousse and Ryouga while spouting marriage proposals at
Akane and the Pig-tailed girl. After a few minutes of this, Ranma has had
enough and loudly shouts "I wish I never got engaged to all these unwanted
fiancees!" and the Ranma's world is reduced to a blinding light.
10 Years ago
A boy and his father are walking when the boy disappears in a flash of light.
A girl is walking home from school when she disappears in a flash of light.
At the Saotome house Nodoka is drinking some tea and reading Genma's latest
postcard when, two six year old girls appear in a flash of light which sup
prizes Nodoka who then accidentally spills her tea over one of the girls.
"R-R-Ran-ma!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Akane and Ranma still have all their memories and abilities (including Ranma's
curse, it's just not Ranma 1/2 if Ranma's not cursed). Akane and Ranma
relationship reduced a bit because of their new ages, is solid because after
they put 2 & 2 together and work out what happened Akane realizes just what
Ranma's wish was. The bracelet has become useless. Akane would have to
return to the dojo so people aren't worrying over her, Nodoka after finding a
young Kasumi trying to look after her family (their mother has already died)
would probably move herself and Ranma into the dojo so she could look after
both families.
The above idea could be the first episode of an ongoing series, I haven't
thought much beyond this apart from an idea for a future episode,
Akane and Ranma have entered the school system. Ranma is an 'A' student (for
a six year old of course) but still has his bad study habits like falling
asleep in class, not doing homework, ect. nobody really notices him. Akane is
noticed by one of the teachers who decides that if a 6 year old Akane is at
the level of a 17 year old, when she gets older she be a genius. (of course
this'll never happen, she's just got 11 years on the other students.) A group
of nut cases, their goal is to replace all of the worlds leaders with their
own agents, to which the above teacher belongs to decides that when Akane
grows up she'll be an ideal agent. And it's kidnap time again!
Genma could turn up later but being the coward that he is, he would probably
never return because he's lost Ranma, and what would Nodoka do.
If anyone wants to write this then feel free to do so as I'm unable to write
stories.
