Hey, it was something a buddy said that set me off....

What A Way To Go
Ranma and Akane found themselves in a different area of Tokyo,
one that was actually familiar to the pigtailed martial artist. To
be exact, it was the neighborhood he lived in briefly when he was in
middle school with Ryouga.
"Hey, Akane, over there's the infamous vacant lot. Well, it used
to be a vacant lot," he corrected himself, "until they built that
Quickie Mart."
"You mean the one where you and Ryouga-kun were supposed to have
your man-to-man duel?" she asked.
"Yup. And Ryouga's house is right there." He pointed to a nice-
looking house. It was very nice, despite the profusion of weeds in the
unmown lawn. "I know you've been here before, but it's been a while."
"Ranma, why is that policeman over there?" Akane's voice held
signs of worry.
"I dunno. Hey, Sir, you lookin' for the Hibikis?" he yelled.
The policeman saw them, and called back, "Yes, do you know where
they are, son?"
Walking over to him, Ranma said, "If I did, I'd be the only one.
Why?"
"Do you know their son, Ryouga?"
Akane raised one hand to his mouth. "Yes, he's a good friend," she
ignored a snort from Ranma, "why?"
The policeman took off his hat. "Ma'am, I regret to inform you
that the poor lad died three days ago, in Thailand.
Ranma was dumbstruck. Finally finding his voice, he said, "No!
What could kill him? He's built like a tank!"
The cop coughed a bit. "Well, sir, it seems he was wandering
through Bangcock, when he entered one of their, well, brothels. One of
their more _exotix_ brothels. All of a sudden, he began to hemmorhage
from the noise, and died from blood loss in seconds."
