Permanent 2

	Ranma walked into her appartment and looked at her father who was lazily
sipping tea out of a small cup in its paws. "hello son." said the sign the
panda offered.

	"Father." said Ranma cooly in the tone she reserved only for her father.
"Whats this about an arranged marrage?" she asked cracking her knuckles and
dropping a confused Mr.P on the floor.

	The next day Ranma was suprised to see Akane waiting outside her door. "Hi"
she said as she walked towards the school with her. 
	"Your really moving in with us?" Akane asked with a smile.
	"Looks like it, my life will be allot easier if I do. Its closer to both the
school and my job, and the rent is much cheaper." she said calmly to Akane. 
	"So uh, where do you work?" asked Akane casually trying to start
conversation.
	"Its called Gaijin cafe." said Ranma automatically.
	"That's near the Dojo isn't it?" asked Akane thoughtfully.
	"Yes." replied Ranma mechanically.
	"Why do you act like that its creepy." Akane said quietly to herself.
	"Whats so creepy about it?" asked Ranma.
	Akane blushed and looked at her feet in embarassment. "I'm sorry its just you
seem so..." said Akane guiltily trying to find the words.
	"Cold? Try spending months in a foreign country being hunted like an animal.
It helps your hearing alot too." she added calmly.
	"Ranma?" said Akane to the girl with a horrified look. "What happened to
you?" she thought saddly.

	Ranma looked at the crowd ammased at the gates of Furinkan with a disgusted
sigh. "Your public awaits." she said to Akane with a small humorless smile.
	Akane returned the smile. "At least she is trying." she thought. The two
walked towards the school with Akane leading by several yards. 
	"There she is!" cried one of the boys in the front. They charged at them.
Akane began as soon as the first wave of boys hit, to her suprise many of the
boys, about half in fact, passed her completly and charged Ranma who backed
away with a look of horror on her face. She turned to run but the boys swarmed
her.
	Ranma watched in horror as the boys passed Akane and charged at her. "No."
she thoughy and turned to run. The boys had a head start and the element of
suprise and swamped her. She turned as one of the boys swung at her and cried
"I love you!" She dodged punches and kicks fluidly and easily. "Too many." she
thought desperately looking for a break in the crowd. Several boys tried to
crush her in a dog pile and Ranma rolled away. "Can't escape." thought Ranma
frantically.

	Akane finished up the last part of her little squad and turned to see Ranma
facing not only her usuall fan cub but also about fifteen new faces as well.
"No! get away from her you Jerks." she cried running for the crowd. Then an
almost inhuman yell erupted from the center of the Mob. Ranma shot straight up
twenty feet into the air with a jumping  uppercut that knocked one boy fifteen
feet back and took out several other students in his wake. Ranma landed and
looked at her opponents carefully. The boys circled her and began to close in.
	 Akane looked and saw Ranma standing in the center of the crowd in a ready
stance. She starded to go towards to help but a warning hand on her shoulder
stopped her. She turned to see Nabiki holding her back gently shakeing her
head.
	"Akane looke at her eyes." she said simply. 
	Akane turned as the boys edged their way ever closer to the girl carefully
and slowly. "She looked and saw a very serene and calm Ranma standing
motionless in the center. Her eyes held no emotion or fire she almost seemed
to be nothing but lifeless statue.
 Ranma was a killing machine.
 
	"No! they'll be killed!" cried Akane as she looked at the boys edge closer.
	One of the Karate club members snapped and ran at Ranma. He screamed as he
rushed her. She moved slightly to dodge his strike and backhanded him in the
back of the head.  He fell to the ground with a sickening thud and she lept
into the crowd of boys surrounding her. She kicked one boy in the neck
breaking his collar bone and dropping him like a rock. One of the sumo club
swing at her and she grabbed his arm and slammed him down on the ground while
twisting her weight ripping his arm out of the socket dislocating his
shoulder. Another boy dresssed on boxing gear swung at Ranma who grabbed his
wrist and ducked uner his arm, then she punched up throught his elbow breaking
it instantly. Another boy kicked her and she grabbed his ankle and brought it
down on her knee and elbowed his knee breaking it instantly as well. She
turned and charged into another group of boys crying out in her rage.

	Akane and Nabiki watched in horror as Ranma stood in the center of the pile
of broken and entirely unconsious boys. She stood breathing evenly and looked
around at the distruction she had caused. She fell to her knees and took deep
controlled breaths. Tatewaki Kuno walked out from benind a tree and smiled at
the girl who was regaining control of herself. Ranma looked at her hands and
sobbed as the scope of what she had done hit her. "Shampoo." she said aloud.
	Tatiwaki Kuno smiled smuggly at the girl before him on the ground and walked
up to her. "Such sweet remorse." he said to Ranma who merely looked at him. 
	"You." said Ranma calmly. "Did this."
	"No! he'll be killed!" cried Akane but was once again restrained by her
sister.
	"No he won't, broken but not killed." she said pointing to the bodies of the
male populous of Furinkan, all of them were broken and cushed but not a single
one was in any danger of dying.
	Kuno's clothes were obviously designed to show off the scar he had received
in the earlier battle with Ranma. "They, as with the beautious Akane must
defeat you for the honor of your company." said Kuno standing tall.
	"How dare you interfear with my life?" said Ranma with the same maddening
calm.
	"Twas no trouble my dear it is what the superior class does to those
obviously too weak to live on their own." said Kuno as he tossed a rose at
Ranma.
	Ranma punched it in the air causeing it to exsplode sending petals in every
direction. "Hmm, you are an arrogant jerk."she said once again a statment and
not a curse.
	"Now fair maden might thou sparr with me?" he sadi readying himself for
battle.
	Ranma waved her hand around her and looked at Kuno with her face growing
hard. "Does it look like I'm sparing to you?" she said flatly.
	"My heart guides me into this battle." he said charging Ranma.
	Ranma jumped into the air and came down hard on Kuno's chest. She then sprung
off his chest and onto the ground several feet away. Kuno leaned forward and
coughed up a fair ammount of blood.
	Ranma eyed him coldly and looked at the kendoist as he stood clutching his
chest. "I just punctured your right lung slightly. If you don't receive
medical attention within the next two hours you will die, There is a pay phone
inside the school." Ranma flipped him change and began to walk away. She
stopped and turned slightly. "Now -sempai- do you see how much I love a
weakling like you?" she said bitterly.  It began to rain and some of the
students woke up and started moaning and others screamed in terror and pain
from their injuries. The few who escaped unharmed and those who had fought
Akane looked on in horror as the girl walked away from the screaming pile of
bodies.
	 She looked like a demon to her, a cold hard emotionless face that could not
possibly be human. Yet Akane could not bring herself to be afraid or angry.
	Ranma stopped in front of Akane. "I am sorry for this, but mabey now you
understand the kind of life I've had over the past year." She said saddly. 
	Akane looked at Ranma with pittious eyes. "Ranma how could you?" she said.
	 Ranma hung her head lower. "I have fought for my life every day for almost a
year. I thought, finally it would all go away once I got back home. I guess I
was wrong." she said quietly once again in her emotionless daze. She walked
towards the building.
	"Akane she didn't do anything wrong." said Nabiki "She defended herself.
Plain and simple." said Nabiki watching Ranma walk slowly towards the school. 
	"That poor girl what could have happened to her to cause this?" said Akane
after a moment. In the distance emergancy vehicles sirens wailed and the pair
turned towards the school.

	Durring the lunch period. Akane could not find Ranma anywhere on the campus.
Then the speaker in the lunch room turned on and a voice spoke clearly four
simple words that every one understood. "The attacks will stop." 
	"Ranma?" said Akane startled by the announcement. She ran towards the school
office and caught Ranma right as she walked out. "There you are, I was worried
you forgot to eat lunch with us." said Akane smiling. Ranma offered a half
hearted smile and allowed herself to be taken to a group of girls in the lunch
room.
	Several of them gasped and staired at her in fear and wonder. Many of the
other girls were giving Ranma dirty looks. Ranma realised that it must be
because their boyfreinds were involved in the attack this morning. The
paramedics arrived and the police questioned the boys. No one would give any
information out of either 'love' or fear and both. More than half the schools
male population was absent now because they had to be taken to the hospital.
Ranma looked at Akane and asked a simple question.
	"Why?" she said.
	Akane turned to face her and hugged her. "Because I don't understand, I pray
I never do and I hope you get the chance to forget." she said looking at
Nabiki on the other side of the feild who smiled back. "We're going to be
living together and I think we shoud be freinds." she said smiling. Ranma
blushed and looked down at her knees.
	"She's so cute. Freinds...huh." thought Ranma unsure of what to say or do.

	Kuno sat looking at the doctor with a confused face. "What do you mean its
not punctured?" he said bluntly.
	"You've been faked out my freind." said the doctor looking at the chart. "She
broke your ribs alright and I'm not suprised you coughed up a little blood
with all the bruises she gave you. She must really hat-"
	"I knew it she does love me!" he cried. 
	The doctor sighed and placed the chart back on the table. "You and I need to
talk." he said to the Kendoist as Kuno hugged his pillow joyously.
