Part four:
Why that dirty old...

Ranma slowly turned to Genma.  "Is this true?" he said, his tone
somewhere between feeling betrayed and furious.
   The panda turned the other way, refusing to answer.  Ranma
doused him with hot water.
   Genma sighed.  He knew he couldn't get out of this one.  He
was caught, and caught good.  }Note: Behave you guys!  I can
hear you cheering!{
   "Does Mom know about this?" Ranma asked quietly.
   Genma nodded weakly.  "As a matter of fact, it's her child."
There was a collective raised eyebrow.  "We've never been rich,
so she was given up for adoption.  Along with her twin brother."
   "Twin?"  Sakura looked up.
   "Yes, your brother, Warui.  You were separated at birth."
}Note: This isn't Star Wars! =){  Genma looked up at Ranma.
"Don't mention this to your mother.  She had her memory erased
because she was so sad about having to give up her children."
   Ranma raised his eyebrow, wondering whether to believe him or
not.  He decided to believe him, as he didn't want to sit 
through another long story if it weren't true.
   "The monster...Well, maybe monster isn't the word to use.
He's as human as you, Sakura."  Genma fidgeted a moment.  "The
monster is your brother."
   Sakura's eyes got wide with horror.  "No...No!  Then Ranma
destroy him?"  A tear glimmered in her eye.
   "I don't know, Sakura-chan.  I honestly don't know."

A person figure with dark purple hair wandered around Nerima, in
search of the Pure Innocent One.  He was wearing a dark blue
gi with blood red swirls in it.  He was bored with this colour
mix.
   "Warui KAERU!" he yelled.  A fierce wind started.  His hair
flew up, then very quickly down.  All his hair came off, like
purple feathers flying off his head.  The breeze whirled them
around him so he was hidden from view.
   When the breeze died down, he had dark blue hair and was
wearing a red gi with purple swirls.  He had to find the Pure
Innocent One.  He had to make her like himself, and kill her
protector.  Her fiancee.
   Saotome Ranma.

"So, let me get this strait."  Ranma and Genma were sitting in
the doujou.  "You want me to protect my sister than I never knew
about, that you have me engaged to!  And you want me to kill the
brother that neither of us knew we had?"
   "Well...You might not have to kill him.  If there is a way to
change him, to make him more like Sakura..."  He pictured a male
version of Sakura, pastels and all.  He shook his head and
shuddered.
   "Why don't you do it?" Ranma asked.
   "The prophecy says her fiancee.  You would expect me to marry
my own daughter?"  Genma looked at him funny.
   "And you expect me to marry my own *sister*?!"  Ranma paused.
"Which I never knew till now existed!"
   "You think it easy for me," Sakura's voice came from the
doorway, "to find fiancee brother?"
   "I'm sorry, Sakura.  I really am."  Ranma took her hands in
his tenderly.  "But I couldn't marry you even if you weren't my
sister."
   "I know.  You love Akane."
   "Well..."

Akane was about to go into the doujou to practice, but she saw
that Ranma and Sakura were in the door way.  She saw him take
her hands in his and briefly thought the worst.  His own sister,
even!
   Then she heard what they were saying:
   "You love Akane." - Sakura
   "Well..." - Ranma
   "Just say it, boy!" - Genma
   "I...I...I do love her." - Ranma
   Akane walked up to them.
   "Ranma?  Did you...mean it?"
   "Akane!"  Ranma blushed.  "A...A tomboy like you?  ...Yes."
   Akane looked at Ranma in a new way.  :Yes!: she thought.  :He
finally said it!:  "I love you too, Ranma."  She gave him a peck
on the cheek then dashed up to her room, heart fluttering
wildly.

Authors notes:
Don't ask me why I did that right there.  It just came to me, so
I decided it worked. =)  What do you think so far?  Better or
not as good as the beginning?
