		Author’s Notes: This story takes place right after the final manga in the 
series. Ranma and Akane have admitted their love for each other. They still have a few of 
their typical fights but not as frequently as they did in the past. The X-Men line up in this 
story is Beast, Wolverine, Cyclops, Rogue, Jubilee, Storm, Jean Grey, Psylocke, Gambit, 
and Professor Xavier. Nodoka also plays a prominent role in this fanfic.

		
					     The Story

		(Scene One: The Meeting Room in the X-Mansion. All X-Men are 
present.)

		Gambit: What we hear for Logan? I had a little rendezvous with Madame 
Rogue planned for right now.

		Rogue: Yeah, sugah! You certainly know how to ruin a girl’s fun. I hope 
you don’t plan to show us slides from your latest trip to Japan.

		Wolverine: Pipe down, both of ya. This is important. Look at these. 
(Passes around a pile of photographs.)

		Jubilee: He’s cute.
		
		Beast: Who is the "cute" boy we are looking at, my friend?

		Wolverine: His name is Ranma Saotome. I believe he his a mutant.

		Cyclops: Do you have proof?

		Wolverine: I saw him fight. He knew several techniques that I haven’t 
seen in a long time. Psylocke might know some of them.

		Psylocke: Like what?

		Wolverine: The Hiryu Shoten Ha.
		
		Psylocke: That’s impossible. The only people who know how to use that 
technique are The Amazons of Jusenkyo.

		Wolverine: Exactly. So I asked a little about him and found out for a very 
steep price, that he had a special ability.

                         Jean Grey: What is the ability?

		Wolverine: I’m not sure but. I think it has something to do with 
transformation? I do know his address though. I also know that the kid is fluent in 
English so communication will not pose as a big problem. 

		Professor X: Perhaps it is time we sent Mr. Saotome a letter.


	(Scene Two. A few days, later at the Tendou Dojo.)

		Ranma and Akane: We’re home.

		Nodoka: How was school today?

		Akane: Fine. Kuno asked Ranma’s better half; to the fall dance (Laughs.)

		Ranma: It’s not funny and he asked you to go with him also, tomboy.

		Akane: (Goes closer to Ranma.) Baka!

		Ranma: Macho Chick!

		Akane: Pervert.

		Ranma: Uncute.

		Akane: (embraces and kisses Ranma.) Are you sure about the last insult?

		Ranma: Of course not. (Akane gives him a soft hit to the head.) Just 
joking, of course you’re cute. (Kisses Akane back, while Kasumi enters with a letter.)

		Kasumi: Hello, Akane. Hello, Ranma. Ranma there was an odd letter for 
you in the mail today. Here it is. (Gives Ranma the letter, Ranma begins to read the letter 
while still kissing Akane.)

		Ranma: (Breaking away from Akane.) From Professor Xavier’s School for 
the Gifted in America!

		Akane: What does it say.

		Ranma: (reading) Dear Mr. Ranma Saotome, our school is trying to build 
up its number of international students. Our Japanese liaison informed us about your 
academic talents especially in Math, as well as, your skill in Martial Arts. We would like 
you to attend our school, so you can grow academically and teach our current students 
Martial Arts. I will be calling you on September 12th at seven p.m., your time to discuss 
arrangements for you to come and visit during the first week of October.

		Akane: Where is the school located?

		Ranma: (Reading more.) Our school is located in Scarsdale, New York 
about thirty minutes from Manhattan. Mr. Saotome, I hope you wish to come visit us, you 
can bring some guests if you wish. With much respect, Professor Charles Xavier.

		Akane: Only thirty minutes from Manhattan that’s wonderful.

		Ranma: I guess so, why?

		Akane: Broadway, silly. I always wanted to see a play in New York; it’s 
one of the best theatre cities in the world. Ranma, please take me!

		Ranma: Well, he did write that I could bring guests. I guess you’ll get two 
birthday presents from me.

		Akane: That’s right. They want you to visit during my birthday week. I 
never spent a birthday away from home before.

		Kasumi: Don’t worry, Akane. We will celebrate your birthday before you 
go away. 

		Akane: Arigato, oneechan.

		Nodoka: I am very proud of you, my son and I am coming with you too.

		Ranma: Why?

		Nodoka: Because I never got to go on vacation with you when you were 
younger and young lovebirds like you and Akane need a chaperone to accompany you, so 
you both behave properly.

		Ranma: (blushing) Hai, mother. (Phone rings.) That must be him! (Rushes 
towards the phone and picks it up.) Hello, Tendou training hall, Saotome Ranma 
speaking.

		Professor X: Hello, Mr. Saotome by the sound of your voice I take it you 
received my letter.

		Ranma: Hai, I mean yes Professor Xavier-sensei. I will be honored to 
come and visit your school.

		Professor X: I am glad to hear that. Do you have any questions for me?

		Ranma: No.

		Professor X: Good than let’s get down to business. Is there going to be 
someone accompanying you?

		Ranma: Yes, two people. My fiancé Tendou Akane and my mother 
Saotome Nodoka.

		Professor X: Yes. This question might seem too personal but it has 
importance, Do they know everything about you or is there something you keep a secret 
from them?

		Ranma: (puzzled) No, I guess you can say that they know everything 
about me. Why do you ask?

		Professor X: Do not be concerned by the question, it is merely a formality. 
I will send three tickets to your house very soon, You will land in New York at John F 
Kennedy International Airport around nine a.m. on October first. Before I say goodbye, 
do you have any special requests?

		Ranma: Yes, I do actually. My fiancés birthday is October third and she 
really likes theatre. I was wondering if you can get me two tickets to a show followed by 
dinner at a nice restaurant. I will pay you back for the show tickets and dinner.

		Professor X: Don’t worry about a thing, the school will treat you two to a 
very nice evening. I am sure you fiancé will be very pleased. I will call you again after 
everything’s arranged. Until I call again I wish you farewell.

		Ranma: Thank you very much, Professor Xavier-sensei. Farewell (hangs 
up.)

	(Scene 3, Meeting room, X-Mansion)       

		Cyclops: Is everything set?

		Professor X: Yes, Ranma will come and visit us during the first week of 
October and he does not suspect anything about the true nature of why he was recruited.

		Jean Grey: Is he coming alone?

		Professor X: two people are accompanying him. His mother, Saotome 
Nodoka and his fiancé, Tendou Akane. I believe they know about his mutant ability.

		Jubilee: (disappointed) Isn’t he a too young to be engaged?

		Beast: (jokingly) Do I sense a little jealousy on your part, lady Jubilee?

		Jubilee: It would just be nice to have some company that’s my age, around 
here.

		Gambit: Sure that’s all you want, Jubilee?

		Jubilee: Shut up, will you. All it would mean is one less woman to work 
your charms on. (Everyone laughs, Gambit just pouts.)

		Professor X: All right, that’s enough. Training time is in fifteen minutes. 
Beasts I need your help before you start training.

		Beast: How may I help you esteemed Professor?

		Professor X: Ranma’s fiancées birthday is on October 3rd and she loves the 
theatre. So he wanted us to arrange a nice evening, including dinner for the two of them. 

		Beast: I will arrange a very nice evening for both of them, Professor.

 	(Scene 4: two weeks later at the Tendou House, It's Akane's birthday party.)

 		Everyone: HAPPY SEVENTEENTH BIRTHDAY, DEAR AKANE, 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU. (Akane closes her eyes, makes a wish and blows out the 
candles.)

		Akane: Thank you, everyone.

        		Kasumi: It's time to open presents.

		Akane: (taking a random present from the pile.) This one is from Kuno. 
(Opens it and pulls out a red sweater.)

		 Kuno: I hope the fair maiden Tendou Akane fells this gift is suitable for 
her. I spent hours thinking of a gift that would look beautiful on your skin, lovely maiden 
and keep you warm in the barbarian lands of New York.
	
		Akane: It's very nice Kuno.

		Kuno: A thousand thanks princess, a thousand thanks. Beat that evil 
wizard Saotome.

		Ranma: Wait and see Kuno.

		Akane: The next one's from Uncle and Auntie Saotome. (Akane opens the 
box and pulls out a nice, black evening dress.) Wow, Arigato Uncle and Auntie. It's 
lovely; I can't wait to wear it>

		Nodoka: I'm glad you like it. Actually Genma picked out. (Genma 
blushes.)

		Ranma: (laughs) Who would have known that you have good taste in 
woman's clothing, old man! Guess the better half of Happosai rubbed of on you. (Genma 
doesn’t react, he just grumbles.)

		Akane: Domo Arigato, to both of you. (Takes a small envelope out of the 
pile.) This is Ranma's gift. (Opens it.) TWO TICKETS TO SEE CITY OPERA DO LA 
BOHEME! (Gets up and hugs Ranma) Thank you, Ranma, Thank you.


		Ranma: (blushing) I guess you'll get to wear that evening dress sooner 
than you thought you would. (Scene ends with Akane opening the rest of her gifts.)

	(Scene 5: Tokyo International Airport.)

		Kasumi: Good-bye, I hope you have a nice trip.

		Akane: We will, I'll call as soon as we reach the United States.

		Soun: WAAAAAAAAAAA! My little girl is traveling so far away.

		Akane: (embarrassed.) Daddy please control yourself. It' not like I'm 
travelling alone. Ranma and auntie Nodoka will be with me you know.

		Soun: But I never thought you'd go so far away so soon.

		Akane: Dad, it's only for one week.

		Soun: All right, Ranma if anything happens to my little girl. I am holding 
you responsible.

		Ranma: Come on, what could happen it's not like were going to Jusenkyo. 
We're going to America to visit a boarding school, what could possibly happen?

		Nabiki: Ranma-baby with you anything could happen. (Ranma turns red.)
Come on, we should be going. Hey where are Genma and Nodoka.

		Ranma: They wanted to say good-bye together privately.

		Kasumi: (blushes) Oh my! 

		Nabiki: Let's go. Kuno planned to treat us to a day at his mansion. (Nabiki, 
Kasumi, and Soun (still crying) leave.)

		Ranma: Wow, I can't believe that Nabiki actually got Kuno under control, 
Kind of.

		Akane: Yeah. I guess the best way to Kuno's heart is with pictures of the 
"pig-tailed godess." (Laughs)

		Ranma: Very funny. She sold him a fair number of Akane pictures as well 
you know.

		Akane: (stops laughing.) Hm. (Nodoka enters, blushing a little.)

Nodoka: I hope you two brought something to do. We have a long flight in 
store for us.

Ranma: Yeah, I brought some Manga to read and planned to do a lot of 
sleeping.

Akane: What manga? Dragon ball? Uratsei Yatsura?

Ranma: It's none of your business.

 Akane: (Grabs his back pack and opens it.) Maison Ikkoku, isn't that a 
little unmanly for you? (Laughs)

Ranma: You're being really kawaiikune, right now.

Akane: Relax, Ranma I was just joking.

Nodoka: Why don't the two of you calm down. We have to board now and 
I don’t want any fights on the plane.

Akane and Ranma: Hai.
