"HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AKANE!" everyone shouted.  Today was Akane's 18th
birthday.  Surrounding her were friends and rivals.  Nothing was going to
spoil this day, except maybe what she was seeing.  Off to one corner, Shampoo
and Ukyou were fighting over Ranma.  *This is my birthday!  How dare he flirt
with them.*  Rushing Ranma with her mallet, "I wish you would die, Ranma!" she
shouted.

      Suddenly a symbol appeared on Ranma's forehead.  His clothes shifted and
transformed.  Blinking everyone could see that he was not wearing his
traditional red shirt and black pants.  In their place a flowing white shirt
and pants.  In a whisper that everyone could hear, "Contact broken."  Turning
his head towards Soun, " Tendou Soun, I am the God of Destiny and Goddess of
Change.  14 years ago, Tendou Kimiko, your wife, was given a wish.  She wished
for one of her daughters to have a husband like me.  On Tendou's Akane's 18th
birthday, she wished that contract broken and I have granted it.  Farewell."
Slipping from Shampoo and Ukyou's grasp, Ranma caught a beam of sunlight and
disappeared.

      Skuld was on her computer when a message suddenly flashed on her screen.
Reading it, Skuld got really excited.  "Oneesan, Oniisan is coming home!!"
