I have been tortured, died and been revived. I have been
made a slave, escaped, lost someone I loved in escaping and
I was recently told unless a near miracle happens, I won't
live till New Years. I still haven't been as depressed as
the author of this story. Nightelf, if this is anything like
how you really feel- see a doctor NOW . If this is just
really good story telling , then congratulations on
rivaling, Old H.P.Lovecraft himself, in writing a really
downer  of a story.
This as a story lacks a villain, I would really like to see
somebody get badly and permanently hurt for doing this,
especially as this looks like it is going to be the future,
Ranma saw using the Mirror.
I am guessing here as I haven't seen the story myself, just
read a description. Which mostly just said Akane married
Ryoga and Ranma wasn't around.
I am surprised Ranma didn't try getting a new curse, some
animal, then switching that curse to a human male. He
wouldn't have been Saotome Ranma physically but mentally. Or
was that one of the unnamed thing he tried that almost
killed him before he went to see Ukyou.? I know it would
have had to fail in order for the story plotlne to follow as
it had to, but it does seem like something he would try.
Well I will say one thing this is going to be a story I will
have a hard time forgetting, but I am going to try. For a
couple of months anyway.

When in danger or in doubt, run in circles,
                    scream and shout.

Always listen to experts. They'll tell you
                    what can't be done, and why. Then do it.

If violence is not solving your
problems you're just not using enough of it.

"I guess I'm just an old-fashioned sentimentalist at heart.
I refuse
 to accept a no-win scenario.  I hate the thought of a
universe without
 justice.  If the maneuverings of dark powers can't be
exposed and
 defeated by the pure of heart, then there's no point in
anything.  I
 can't believe that."
