I'll return them as soon as I can find Ryoga....
It may take a while.

"He's so cute!" Ukyo chirped.
"He nice," Shampoo agreed.
"I wonder if he belongs to anyone," Akane said.
The girls adored the boy's shining black hair, his emerald green eyes,
as well as all the other attributes of the guy.
Ranma just rolled his eyes as his 'fiancees' lavished attention on a
puppy that had wandered onto the Furinkan school grounds. He wasn't
jealous of the mutt; why would he care that his 'girls' seemed to like
some dumb animal more than him. At least the girls weren't fighting.
"We should probably take him to an animal shelter if no one comes to
claim him soon," Ukyo said sorrowfully.
"But what if he doesn't have an owner? If we take him to the animal
shelter they might...."
"Don't even TALK about that!" Shampoo interrupted Akane, while
shuddering slightly.
Akane nodded and picked up the puppy. She turned towards Ranma, holding
the little fellow to his face. "Isn't he cute?"
Ranma looked a way from them. "I hate cute."
Off in the distance a faint echo of 'Where on Earth am I now?' was the
only thing heard.
Akane just stared at Ranma, blinking repeatedly.
Shampoo and Ukyo acted as one grabbing Ranma by the collar and hoisting
him into the air. "What do airen/you mean by that?"
"Um... well, ah...." Ranma stammered. <What did I say?>
Akane started laughing in a way that didn't sound entirely... sane.
"He... he hates cute.... *snicker* I'm the 'uncute' one.... *snort* He's
said that you two were cute and he hates cute.... *BWAHAHAHAHA* But I'm
not cute...." She continued to laugh as she skipped away.
Shampoo and Ukyo watched as Akane bounced away. Their attention was
drawn back to Ranma when he muttered a curse. Before he had a chance to
saying anything more the two girls turned their 'love' into something
resembling fertilizer. Both girls left vowing to no longer be 'cute'
since Ranma said he hated that.
"Me and my big mouth," the lump of martial artist moaned an hour later.
