     Another altered destiny fic and one that stars Kodachi;  sounds good to 
me.  I just have a few concerns, however.  I've noticed that except for 
"most unlikely of friends,"  the altered destiny fics have tried to be 
original by having weird sexual relationships like that 3-way with Ranma, 
Ukyou, and Shampoo and the 5-way marriage thing.  I just never really bought 
any them.  They didn't seem to have enough justification in my mind.  Please 
do not have something like that in this series.  I saw some signs up one 
forming with Ranma, Kodachi, and Nabiki.  I know that they're just teasing 
right now, but who knows what will happen in the future.
     I also fell safe in assuming that Perfume will eventually show up.  
Except for muof, her relationships have been too quick and easy to win.  She 
was originally a tragic character who didn't have any success in her love 
life.  Make it harder than saying "are you ok?" for her to win over her love 
interest, please.
     I enjoy all the series, except for that weird relationship thing.  They 
aren't necessary.  Please don't.
     Oops, I forgot to mention the positive stuff.  A fic starring Kodachi 
is inherently cool.  I like the characterization of her so far.  I'm 
especially glad that you didn't get rid of her laugh.
     I also like how you changed Akane's and Nabiki's characters.  I always 
thought Nabiki would make a good martial artist and you did it without 
costing her her smarts.  It's also nice to see how Akane could have admires 
without them attacking her.
     Keep up the good work with all the characterizations.  Since this story 
isn't canon you can pretty much make anything up.  Use the characters to 
make things original, that's all you need.
