Ranma/OMG chapter 6
Of Mothers, Fathers, Fiancees, and Other Such Chaos.
It had been a month since Ranma had left the Dojo with his new mother Urd.
Now, Kami-sama had decided that before Ranma could fulfill his role as a
god/goddess, he would have to start tying up loose ends and that meant he had
to return to Nerima. Besides, if he were is be absence any longer, people
would start to worry, mainly his fiancees.
Tendou Dojo
Nabiki was still in shock over the amount of money in front of her. Had the
bills in front of her been yen it would only be a slight suprise, but the
denominations were in American dollars. There was enough money here to put
all three of the Tendou girls through any Japanese university of their choosing.
The only problem bothering Nabiki on this joyous occasion was WHERE IN THE
#$%#% DID RANMA GET THIS KIND OF MONEY???. Until she saw Ranma again, the
only thing she could do with all this kind of money was roll around in it.
Akane was nervous. Earlier, when she had first noticed a letter from Ranma
lying on her bed, she had dreaded the possibility of Ranma leaving her. After
their last fight, they had separated on uneasy terms. Her dread was soon
replaced with elation after she had finished the letter. Smiling for the
first time in almost a week Akane picked up the bracers from off the bed and
slipped them on. Almost giddy with happiness, The youngest Tendou daughter
skipped down the stairs. Today Ranma was coming home.
Kasumi smiled happily as she prepared dinner for the family. She had gotten
a call only the day before, saying Ranma would return before the sun had set
the next evening. Looking outside, Kasumi noticed the sky getting a little
darker. It was any time now.
Nodoka was playing a game of shoji with her husband, while Soun watched
from the sidelines. The topic of discussion all week long had been mainly
Ranma and why he had left. So far they had not reached a possible answer
although the possibility of Ranma eloping with one of his other Fiancees had
come up numerous times, all being struck down by Nodoka. Having only recently
been reunited with Ranma, the one thing she was positive was that Ranma was
honorable. With everyone busy cooking, arguing or rolling around in money,
they failed to notice the strange light emulating from the koi pond.
As the light from the pond intensify, a very familiar head slowly rose
followed by his body clad in a red shirt and black pants. "Hi everybody. I'm
back, ya miss me?"
The entire family came trampling out of the house when they heard Ranma's
voice. Very soon though, they came to an abrupt halt, except for Genma, when
they saw where Ranma was standing. "Boy, where have you been? You'd better
have a good explanation." It wasn't until he had finished his tirade that he
noticed Ranma was floating a full foot above the pond.
"Ranma!!" Akane shouted as shook out of her daze. She was so happy to
see Ranma. She had been really miserable for the past week since he had left.
In that time, she finally admitted her feelings for Ranma to herself. "Was
this why you left? To learn a new ki technique?"
The entire family nodding their heads as if Akane had asked the same
question on everyone's mind.
After talking with Kami about tying up loose ends. He had sat down with
Urd, Belldandy, Skuld and Keiichi to discuss how he was suppose to approach
this problem which had plagued him for over a year. They decided that telling
his family outright that he had a new mother, that she is a god and that he
was a god was not a good idea. Ranma was impressed that for the first time in
his life, he had sat down to think something through instead of charging in.
"You could say that. I learned this, and other techniques as well." In a way
that was the truth. He had been learning how to use his new found powers.
Kami frowned upon Gods and Goddess who lied. "I also got a new job."
"A new job? Is that where you got the money from Ranma?" Nabiki asked.
"Son how could you have attain a job if you haven't finished High School
or College yet?" Nodoka asked.
"No it isn't how I got the money Nabiki. Try checking the major illegal fights from time to time. On the job it had certain qualifications that only I could fulfill."
"Ranma, we are happy that you are back." Soun exclaimed. Now there was
still a chance to unite the Saotomes and Tendous.
"You make your father proud Ranma. Learning a new technique like that.
Even Happosai doesn't know a technique like that." Genma and Soun began
crying.
"I came back ta tie up some loose ends before I headed off to my new
job." Ranma explained.
Akane was a little shaken after Ranma had said that. She might be
losing Ranma again. Running and latching on to Ranma, she cried in his
shoulders. "Don't leave me again, Ranma." She couldn't take it anymore.
Ever since Ranma arrived, he had added excitement to her life. After he
disappeared, life was still exciting for a least a week. Soon, Shampoo left
to look for Ranma, Moose had followed, Ukyou stayed and waited for his return,
Ryoga was lost and Nerima had become the peaceful town it once was before
Ranma came. In that time, she finally admitted to herself that she did care
for Ranma and without him in her life, she would feel incomplete.
The look of surprised on Ranma's face was shared by everyone
else, that was everyone but Kasumi. For a time now, she had known Akane's
heart.
Looking down at the sobbing girl who was trying to crush him, "Who said
I was leaving? I just said I had a new job, a new obligations." Leaning to
whisper in Akane's ear, "You are such a tomboy, but you are my tomboy. So
stop crying and crushing me to death."
Hearing Ranma called her a tomboy, Akane started to get angry then
hearing the rest of the sentence she calmed down. Only then did she realized
what she had done and in front of the family as well. Pulling her head from
Ranma's shoulder, she could see Soun and Genma hopping for joy, Nabiki with a
thumbs up, and Kasumi and Nodoka with smiles on their faces. Akane was still
blushing when Ranma lifted her down and settled on the ground himself.
"I have to go, but I'll be back in a few hours." With that Ranma jumped
the wall and sprinted out of sight.
Later that night, the tension inside the Training Hall could have
created diamonds. A company of people were there. There was Shampoo, Mousse,
Cologne, Ukyou, Ryoga, Kuno, Kodachi, Akane, Nabiki, Soun, Genma, Nodoka and
Kasumi. They were all called here by Ranma for some inportant news. There
were so many questions that they wanted to ask, such as where he was for the
pass month. The mutters and arguments died down as Ranma walked in. Suddenly
there was an uproar as they company saw who followed him. There were Three
lovely ladies following him.
Akane was barely able to control her anger. After a month, she wanted
to see him more than punt him into space, just barely though. Shampoo,
Cologne, Ukyou, Ryoga and Kodachi were mad. Mousse, Kunou and Ryoga were
happy.
"I have an annoucement I have to make. For over a year now, I've had to
deal with my fiancee problems as well as other things. I've recently gotten a
job and will be leaving Nerima."
The entire gang would have rushed Ranma had not the three mysterious
women been in the way.
"Before I leave though, I want to tie up all loose ends. That also
includes the engagement problems."
The look of hope could be seen on all the girls'. Anger could be seen on
the mens'.
Seemingly from thin air, Ranma produced a small black box that drew
gasps from the who attending parties. Walking toward the girls, Ranma
suddenly dropped to one knee in front of Akane. "Akane, will you marry me?"
When Akane said yes, choas ensued. Shampoo had her Lion Sword out
trying to slash at Akane but hit an invisible barrier. The same went for Ryoga and
Kuno as the lunged for Ranma. Uykou just sat there, shock clearly written on her face.
"NO ONE HURTS MY SON!!!"
Everyone stopped when they heard the shout.
Looking toward one of the strange women, they noticed that she was now floating a full two feet off the floor, lightning crackling around her body.
Heedless to what was happenening Shampoo sneared "Stupid old lady, that is
Ranma's mother" pointing to Nodoka. Shampoo tried to strike Akane again but found
she couldn't move She and everyone else were surrounded by a shimmer bubble of force.A thin smile crept on to Ranma's face as he heard Shampoo's outburst. "No she isn't. She was my
surrogate mother. Urd is my real mom, and and had to give me up. In a way both of them are my
mother. Urd by blood, and Nodoka is to o a degree, besides that grampa would have a fit if he knew she
wasn't keeping tabs on me." Grinning at his aunts, "Why do you think she was so distracted all the time."
The mirth left Ranma's voice as he turned back to the crowd. His voice suddenly changing taking on an
unearthly authoratative tone not entirely his own, and the marks on Ranma's face started glowing faintly,
"Cologne for over a year now your grand-daughter has pursued me. She has used potions, magic, drugs,
and threats to try and coerse me to marry her. I ask you to take her back to China, and find a more
willing husband. Marriage is sacred bond. One that should be forged in love, and not forced as Shampoo
has tried to do. In the past your people have ruined the lives of many. Destroying families by killing
mothers who dared to stand against you, or taking fathers from their families as husbands of your
children. I made my choice. I'm marrying Akane."
The reactions around the room varied. Cologne stood at the rear watching the seen unfold
Nabiki smirked as she had known Ranma's feeling for Akane for some time. Kasumi smiled happily, her
sister was getting married. Genma and Soun to caught up in their happy dance at Ranma's proposal to
Akane didn't hear what was said after she had accepted. Nodoka was in shock at the words coming from
her sons mouth. The rivals were all frothing in anger. Save for Shampoo who had broken down crying
and Mousse, who had moved to support his love. The other rivals, Kodachi, Ukyo, Ryouga,
and Kuno, the four remaining rivals finally broke free of the field restraining them and surged foward like a wave toward Ranma and Akane headless of the three women in the way.
Ukyo was the first to reach the trio, as she pulled her battle spatula off her back she was thrown chrashing into the back wall of the dojo by a blast of lightning. and the Tatewaki lashed out with his boken tearing a long gash in skuldface before being crushed by twin hammer blows The first crashing down on his head while the second less than a milliscend later came up from underneath crushing the boken shandle, and insidentaly the hands that held them. Kodachi was sent flying through the closed doors of the dojo into the yard. All this time Ranma dodged and weaved around Ryouga's blows, until the enraged matial-artist stuckout in a blind rage at the thing nearest to him. Unfortunately it happened to be a scowling Urd.
As Urd crumpled to the floor, a flame erupted from the floor behind the fanged boy.
Faster than the eye could see, a figure emerged from the pillar of fire lashing out with a whip yanking Ryouga to his knees. Unfortunately as Ryouga fell Ranma started to react. The actions of his friends had stunned him, and only now could he react. His fist stopping short when he saw who had come to his aid.
Standing behind Ryouga stood a stunningh woman, clas almost entirely in black leather. "Well aren't
you going to say thanks to Auntie Mara?"

For the Love Of Mother
Ranma/Oh My Goddess crossover Fanfiction
Chapter 1:Tears in the Dark
Disclaimer: "Ranma 1/2" is owned by Rumiko Takahashi
" Oh My Goddess" is owned by Kyosuke Fujishima
Notes this takes place after the final volume of the Ranma 1/2 manga, and After the
Mara Strikes back storyline in OMG. For those of you who don't know this means
the goddesses need the Moon Rock Bracelets to use their powers.
Ranma-Chan sat the silent darkness of the Tendou bathroom, the only
illumination came from the few candles placed around the room. The lights
had been dead for two days along with the phones. A storm had wiped out the
power of over half of Tokyo. The others hadn't been home when it happened.
They had left for vacation leaving Ranma at the dojo. He had to stay behind to
make up for missed classes from the fiasco's that always plagued his life. An
unnatural glow around the room.
Turning Ranma looked at her face in the mirror. The face that had been her
curse to bare since the fateful day at Jusenkyo. It's seemingly ageless and unflawed
beauty seeming to taunt her.
For the first time Ranma could remember he/she was actually glad for the
curse she had once hated. Alone in the dark for two days pondering the events of
the last year had opened wounds Ranma had denied for so long. All the fiancees,
the kidnappings, rivals enemies, and misunderstandings, each ending with yet
another burden on Ranma's soul. Genma's inexcusable action had caused Ranma
a great deal of pain. The promise that had kept him from his mother for so long,
and yet even after being reunited for such a short time she had left with the others
when he needed her most. Adding to the sting was the betrayal at the bombed weed
-in by people he had called his friends.
Now she/he was completely alone, able to think. To think of Jusenkyo, the pain
it had caused her, and on how to deal with the problems not her own making. It had
become impossible to bear the it all by herself, and yet they had all abandoned her.
Her friends had left Genma had disappeared and Nodoka had gone with them.
The pain left Ranma feeling utterly abandoned.
The betrayal at the wedding had been painful, and now because of the people
who she considered her friends and family she felt even more alone than she had
before. The sting of their betrayal leaving a stinging wound, of knowing that she
couldn't trust them.
Staring at her reflection, Ranma removed the tie that had so long bound
her hair in its braid. Watching her hair fall silently past her shoulder, the long
tresses cascading downward like a waterfall.
Grabbing a bottle of Sake she had gotten from the kitchen Ranma tilted the
bottle back draining it's content with out pausing for breath. Only grimacing
slightly as the luke-warm fluid washed down her throat.
Visions of the past year danced though her clouded mind. Herb, Taro,
Toma, Kirin, and Saffron to name but a few. They had endangered everything
Ranma held dear. No matter the sacrifices he had made they were never enough.
From destroying his cure for Akane, to sacrificing his dignity. They always wanted
more, or blamed him because no one would listen to what he said. Genma, Soun
and the others were never happy. Then there was Nodoka, the symbol of the families,
honor, but she had left him behind to comfort Akane. Leaving him behind when he
needed his mother most. Then there was the fiancee problem. If he picked one fiancee
the others would lose honor, and be hurt.
Pulling his thoughts away from her troubles Ranma staggered toward the TV room.
Staggering toward the phone Ranma tripped sprawling untidily onto the floor. Grabbing
for the phone Ranma managed to knock it to the floor. Grabbing for the phone a second
time she managed to snag it. Dialing almost blind through blurred eyes Ran barley heard
the feminine voice on the other end as she passed out. "Goddess relief help line, one of our
representatives will be with you shortly."
Crashing to the floor Ranma managed crash into the couch as darkness claimed her.
As Urd stepped out of the TV the smell of alcohol assaulted her nose. The first thing
that came into focus as she entered the room was of spent bottles scattered around the
room and the lone young girl sprawled against the couch. Frowning Urd Shook her
head "Poor kid no wonder they sent me." Looking around the room a second time
she spied the lone unopened bottle in the entire room. The Label read
'GLEN LEVIT BLENDED MALT SCOTCH' Urd sighed as she looked from the bottle
in her hand to the snoring the couch. Might as well have a drink while I wait for her
to wake-up. she rationalized to the room. Smiling Urd took a swig of the strong spirits.
Moving to the couch Urd pulled Ranma to her chest she stroked Ranma's hair. Lightly
rocking back and forth trying to ease the troubled dreams.
As the night wore on Urd had begun to doze when the girl awoke from her
fitful sleep. Seeing the confusion and disorientation in the young woman's eyes Urd
smiled reassuringly. "Don't worry I'm here to help you." she told the girl gently.
"Just relax, and release the sorrows before they shatter your soul."
Ranma drunkenly looked at the half-drunken stranger who had spoken. With a half-choked sob Ranma gave in, and the tears began to roll down her face. Ranma had finally lost the battle of keeping in a life time of sorrows. Word tumbled from her lips, the tale of her life , and the pain that seemed to dog Ranma every where, and never being anywhere long enough to really make friends. Pent up memories that had caused so much pain, and had caused so many problem in recent days. The bright moments were always ruined by others interfering, or overshadowed by events that would destroy the trust of people he had called friends. The curse the many failed attempts at a cure, and his fathers promise's left form Ranma himself to tend. Even being reunited with Nodoka had been overshadowed by the promise Genma had made, and Ranma had been forced to live a lie. The pain that had caused, and the constant fighting had caused nearly unbearable suffering. With the added burden of always having the blame for the troubles that occurred dumped on him by others even when Genma had practically admitted to causing it he found a way to blame Ranma. No one would listen to what he had to say no one cared what he had to say. Not even Nodoka would listen, as she had gone to comfort Akane over the Bombed wedding. The words tumbled From the red-head's lips, and thought raced through her mind. Her family hadn't cared enough to listen, and her friends had seemingly abandoned her, and yet this stranger was kind enough to sit there, and just listen, the thought brought more tears to Ranma's eyes, and She began crying into the strange woman shoulder sobs wracking her small frame until much of the pain had been release.
As a gentle touch from the woman's hand wiped the tears from Ranma's eyes. Smiling bitterly Ranma pulled herself closer to the strangers body. Words tumbled from Ranma's mouth, filled with pain, and bitterness. "I wish you could be my Mother, at least then I'd have a real family."
As a bright light filled the room Urd realized the wish had been approved. As the radiance faded Urd Looked down at Ranma's face to behold marks very similar to her own. It was then that the realization finally hit her. She managed to say only one thing before she blacked out, and the enormity of the situation hit her "I'm a mother" before collapsing into a dead faint
Ranma/OMG For the Love of a Mother CHAPTER TWO:Awakenings
Ranma had been asleep in Urd's embrace, slowly he woke-up and in the instant between
sleep and consciousness he was protected, in his mother arms. The he finally woke up, and confusion set in. Who was the stange, beautiful woman holding him, and why did he feel attached to her like no one else in his life. A connection was present, but what was it.
Urd woke as Ranma stirred in her arms. Looking down at her child the goddess smiled.
The events of the last evening were very clear in her mind. The young girl in her arms had wished for Urd to be her mother. Before that had happened Ranma had cried her eyes out over the events in her life. What was more SHE was not really a SHE at all, but A HE Ranma had been touched by the pools of JUSENKYO. The waters of that place changed all they touched for good or ill, but was it a blessing or a curse. Cold water turned Ranma into a girl, but hot water reversed it.
Carefully Urd stood helping Ranma to do the same. Walking into the kitchen Urd quickly returned with a pot of hot water for her child. Pouring the water over Ranma-chan's form Urd watched the transformation reverse itself. Even the things she had seen in her long life didn't prepare her for the transformation. Ranma's shape grew in almost a foot in height. While his chest shifted expanded into muscles instead of breasts, and gained considerable mass. Putting bluntly the cute red-head Urd had met last night had become a HUNK. The only thing that didn't seem to change was Ranma's eyes. They remained the same stunning blue. It gave one constant between the two forms. It would be a help in the time to come.
Lost in thought of the night before he stumbled into the bath not even having felt the change, and groggy from the lack of sleep. The woman in the other room had done something that no-one else had been willing to do for him. She hadn't yelled at him, hit him, or jumped to conclusions. She had just sat there holding him, and she had listened. She had been there for him when no-one else was willing to be, and then she had comforted him. She had stayed through the night quieting his dreams, and helping ease the pain that had plagued him for so long. In short she had shown him the kindness his family never had. As these thoughts flitted through his head, the events of the last night came into focus with crystal clarity. The wish, the flash of light. It had all happened, and now she, 'Urd' a small voice in his head chimed out was staying with him, when he needed a family most. While people he had thought his family and friends had abandoned him a stranger was willing to give comfort and hope. It was with these thoughts that Ranma finally pulled himself from the cooling water of the bath, and started his morning work-out.
After a short work-out, Ranma began to pack his things. to move out of the Dojo. Looking through the house one last time Ranma dropped a on each Tendo sisters pillow. , and a small wad of money on Souns, to help pay for the food he had eaten while there. Walking back down the hall Ranma dropped a pair of his bracers on Akane's bed, with the note, and one of his battle vests.
Walking out the door with a trunk on one shoulder, and a Backpack on the other Ranma gave the dojo a brief glance before walking off into a new life.
Ranma/Omg Chapter 3: A new home
Urd cupid of love, and Goddess of the pasts at the head of the table, with Ranma at her side.
At the other end were Keiichi, Belldandy, Skuld, and Keiichi. Grinning impishly at her younger sisters Urd introduced everyone present. Belldandy smiled as Urd introduced Ranma to the family the thought of having a nephew to dote, and the family was growing made her happy. Keiichi, looked back and forth between the two trying find the resemblance, and Skuld, well Skuld blew her stack, Keiichi's wish was one thing, but having this red-head as a niece was just to much, so she malleted Ranma with her hammer. Her sisters were the first to react to the young goddesses action, Urd was about to scold her sister, but that was when the loud crack of Skuld's hammer breaking off at the head as the vibrations from the impact raced up her arms. The handle shattered from the force of the impact, and the small wooden stump that was all that remained of her hammer fell limply from Skuld's hands. Belldandy's jaw dropped at her younger sister's action. Looking crossly at the young goddess, Belldandy spoke her voice trembling. "Skuld that's no way to treat your family. I want you to apologize to Ranma, he is our nephew after all."
Skuld stuck out her lip pouting at Belldandy before turning to face Ranma. With a tremor of anger, in her voice the youngest of the three norns looked him in the eye's. "I'm sorry. I guess I shouldn't have hit you like that."
Hearing the young goddess apologize a small chuckle escaped Ranma's lips. That's okay auntie, I'm kinda used to it with Akane malletin me all the time. Sorry about your hammer, you might want to get a refund."
Belldandy watched the exchange as she poured glasses of lemonade for everyone assembled. She had stooped when Skuld had hammered Ranma, unfortunately she had failed to notice the lemonade spilling over the glass until the cold fluid ran-off the table into Ranma's lap.
Two goddesses face-faulted as Ranma's form shifted to it's smaller female aspect. Urd's son had just become a girl, and what was worse Ranma didn't seem fazed. Belldandy stuttered as Ranma continued smiling through the whole thing. From what little she could tell Ranma's life had to have been interesting before the wish, but for a new deity to go through all this without being fazed meant that it must have been a trial indeed. In fact it frightened her a little.
Fortunately it was that moment that Banpei came roaring into the room, with a blaring vid-phone. When he finally came to a careening halt off the table next to Urd a Small screen popped up from the device to reveal Kami's smiling it helped that he was using his Odin form.
"So Urd, I see you have the rugrat with you now. I hope you can handle him. Belldandy and Skuld finally over the shock of Ranma's change of forms came back to their senses when they heard Kami's voice. Not having finished Kami kept on with his spiel to the elder of the goddesses. "One thing the three of you will need to do is help Ranma learn to use his or at the moment her new powers, they should start manifesting over the next week. Some will come natural, but others he'll need coaching in to control them. Being the new deity of change and rebirth in all their aspects will be Ranma's greatest challenge yet. Oh, and another thing you'll be teaching him about the job it self, we input a data packet with most of the lessons he would need for math, and the other subjects, but English grammar is having trouble taking hold. Get his old English teacher to help with that. Skuld you help with his powers being the youngest of the three of you, you will have the easiest time understanding Ranma. Urd, I want you to help Ranma sort out the fiasco with his fiancees, and Belldandy help the kid adjust to things. Oh, Ranma I want you to help out around the temple to repay your aunts, and mother. Kitchen work a few chores no real challenge, but you should help. Oh before I go, Skuld watch you temper assaulting a new goddess isn't very good for your record, and your second class status is still probationary."
Hearing Kami speak to her Ranma did the one thing that seemed logical she fainted.
As the darkness claimed her a faint glow engulfed her clothing, as it shifted slightly. The braces surrounded with a golden glow shifted, and warped as the forms of a tiger to shape on the left, and a dragon to form on the right. Ranma-chan's form grew almost a foot in height and the clothing she wore expanded with her body. Where the body of a young girl had lain there before there was now a young woman, Before shimmering slightly changing back to a male state.
Only moments later the martial-artist awoke to the sound's of arguing coming from the family room. As Ranma staggered through the door an argument seemed to be in full swing. Skuld was reading through a file with his name on it with the label: <CASE HISTORY>. The young goddess chuckled as she read through the file. "You have a good taste in clothes, and You like ice-cream so you can't be all bad."
Hearing her sister speak Urd woke from her slight daze. "Bel, this is Ranma's first night with us so get Kei ready. It's time to celebrate, and give Ranma a night he'll never forget!"
Ranma/Omg:For the Love of Mother ch 4: Meeting the boss
Ranma Saotome, Deity of change and rebirth walked slowly through a pair of pale ash doors
into a well lit, and beautifully decorated office. The browns and greens meshed with the plants that rose from the cool ground to give the impression of an ancient forest. The sole thing that stood out of place aside from the doors was a large desk with an elegantly dressed man behind it, his form radiating a serene yet commanding aura about him. Almost timidly Ranma broke the silence. "Sir, I'm Ranma I was told you wanted to see me."
Smiling Kami spoke his quiet voice carrying a great distance. "It's good to finally meet you in person Ranma. I thought you might have a few questions. So I called you here to answer as many as I can. "
Turning to a small laptop that had risen from the desks surface Kami started looking at the information on Ranma's life. "Okay, your fiancee problem is already solved. You should marry Akane. Shampoo has no claim after MT.Phoenix, and the others have even less claim as your father had no right to engage you to anyone after he signed the contract with the Tendou's, but so you know you have 127 other false' fiancees out there.. Also any problems caused by Happosai or your father should be handled by you if possible.
As for Nodoka let's just say she was your surrogate mother, and she blew the job spectacularly. You do have power over the others who have curses, but you can only remove the curse, or change it, you don't have rank to do anything else yet, but please get my permission first, I have plans for a few of Jusenkyo's victims, and I need the curses intact. You can cure Mousse, but the others stay as they are for now. Oh, tell Urd that your medium of travel is water, and have Skuld show you how to use it. If there's anything you want off your chest you might want to say it now you might not get another chance for a while."
"Thank you sir, you already know the story, my so called family and friends along with assorted rivals, enemies, and complete strangers were constantly trying to Rape, seduce, beat me to a pulp, kill me , marry me or black mail me, and sometimes more than one of those things. I won't take that abuse anymore/ I gotta sort out pops debt, and that's bad enough, but everyone was always blaming me for their problem, except Tarou. Then again he always came around trying to flatten me.
Grinning Kami looked up from his desk. "Well...Ranma I know how you feel. I get blamed for a lot to People don't always make the right choices, and even if they do things don't always turn out as they planned They usually look for some one to blame, and I usually get the ticket. AS for why you are in your present job you really can blame me.
"You?"
"Yea, I needed to fill the slot, and needed some-one I could trust not to go power mad. That and I needed someone with compassion, and a willingness to help others."
Ranma "???"
Kami shook his head chuckling. "Ranma you remember that time you saved Ryouga from drowning after he tried he damnedest to blow you to gory bits?"
Nodding his head Ranma's Replied, "Yea, but that trick won't work on a living body."
"You didn't know that at the time, but you still saved Ryouga's life. You could have been killed or crippled, and you still helped him. That just what I need to fin my goddess of change and rebirth."
"But I'm A guy.!"
Almost laughing Kami shifted form, where a man had been sitting before now sat a chuckling woman. "Ranma will you drop that already. We both know you accepted your curse, and besides if you hadn't figured it out I'm not only the father, and also the mother.."
Ranma/Omg Chapter 5:A night on the town
Two hours later
Loud yells penetrated. the air of the temple as Skuld fought over a leather jacket. "Aunty please,
ask before you borrow my stuff this is my best jacket, and in Iam going to look good I might need it. If
we're going out I want to look good. Besides it won't go with what you're wearing.(Yea I know Ranma's
out of Character, but he's had his world flipped upsidedown, and is trying to cope.) Ionly have a few good
outfits, and I don't need them ruined. Ranma-chan reached into the closet and grabbed a black mini-skirt
and tossed it to his aunt, along with a white blouse shirt, and a pair of high heels. Gently pusshing Skuld
from the room Ranma donned the clothes Urd had picked out for him/her to wear. A prickling sensation
flowed though him as he shifted back to his male form with only a thuaght. Grabbing A pair of jeans, and
a the jacket Ranma experimental thought of his female form with a foot of added height. Much to his
suprise his form began to shift. When the change had finished Ranma-onna was slightly taller than her
male form, and had filled out all little more in certain places. Slipping on the jacket Ranma grinned
noticing that the clothes had shifted with him/her.
Looking down at her clothing Ranma-onna saw The outfit she had envisioned. It was a near perfect replica of Herb's dragon scale armour. "I could really enjoy this ya' know." Walking into the family room Ranma, nearly choked when she saw what every one was wearing. Urd was attired in black leather pants, with a red tank-top, and denim jacket. Belldandy was in a far more modest mode of dress wearing a blue jeans skirt, with a light blue blouse shirt, and a red beret. While Skuld was wearing , the jacket Ranma had discarded earlier with a denim skirt, and PLASTIC LITTLE T-Shirt. Keiichi was the biggest suprise the guy was wearing a white t-shirt, with jeans, and a biker jacket. Smiling at the group Ranma let her clothes reform to the yellow shirt with a small red bow tie, and black pants. Shrinking slightly Ranma aquired a much cuter appearance.
The norns grimaced as Ranma's change took place. The cute little red-head grinned. "We had better get going the carnival waits for no one"
Keiichi still stunned at Ranma's sudden change gaped as he was dragged out the doorsinto the night.
Twenty minutes hadpassed as the goddesses walked throught the crowded carnival.
People parted way as the Urd led her family booth to booth finaly coming to a stop at a fish catching game. A small child sat crying with a busted net in his hand. The bronze skinned goddess knelt down patting him on the head. "Don't worry honey we'll get a fish for you."
Dropping a handle ful of coins on the small table next to the nets urd passed four to the others in her group. She was the first to take a stab at the booth. Unfortunately the net broke the moment it
touched the water. Belldabdy followed in similar fashion, but managed to net a single fish before her net
met the same fate. Skuld of the three sisters did the best managing to net three of the fish before her net snapped intwain. When Ranma followed Keiichi was the only one to notice the glint in her eye. The petite red-heads hand blurred as Ranma started the assualt in three seconds Ranma had netted over half the fish in the booth in 5 she had emptied the booth of all the fish.
When Ranma turned back to her new family to be greeted by three face fault and a soaking Urd grinning ear to ear. "Now Ranma what did I tell you about upstaging your mother, next time I want a
warning before you do that again. One shower is enough for me thank you very much."
....
Turning to the kid behind her Ranma handed him a bowl with three fish in it. "Here're your fish, now run along your mother will ber worried."
Leaving a stunned worker at the booth, the group approached a small italian restraunt. When they had finnaly been seated Skuld looked over at her nephew/neice., with a puzzled look on her face.
"Ranma, can you please tell use how you caught those fish with out breaking the net? Or how you move that fast."
Grinning sheepishly the youngest of the goddesses, "Martial-arts, and I cheated. Used my hands instead of the net. I don't like people cheating kids."
Two hours later, at 31 flavors icecream, and yougurt.
Belldandy and Urd stared inn shock Watching Ranma and Skuld as they devoured dish after
dish of ice cream. It seemed that Ranma had taught there sister a little more than than anyone needed to
know about cuteness. After the seventh free dish had been cleared from the table Urd scowled. "Ranma I
think that enough, after six plates of pasta and seven bowls of Ice cream I think you might be over doing
it." Urd didn't know why these thought were coming to her, but she just didn't want her son, or daughter
depending to be an embarasment to her.
"Okay, mom if you insist, but I need all the food I can get. Matial-arts took a lot of energy, and now I need even more."
As their discusions continued Skulds cell phone rang. The voice on the other end spoke out "Skuld, tell your sister that in three weeks time you must tie up lioose ends from Ranma's old life, And that the three of you are to step up Ranma's training." Kami-finished the line went dead.
