Smirking, Ranma put his hand on the woman's
shoulder. As Nodoka removed
the hood covering her face, Ranma announced, "Allow
me to introduce my
mother, Amaterasu Omikami."
Well, if THAT isn't some surprise!
Akane rolled over and lay on her side. Her decision
had been well and
good, but no easy solution was magically appearing.
Sighing, she hoped
once again that Ranma will be all right, and tried
will-->would
Ranma has always been her friend, ever since they
has-->had
met that faithful day
when she accidentally shot him with a ball of
lightning. And,
Ahhh, sweet memories...
subsequently, he was a boy. So, technically speaking
only, of course, he
was her 'boy' 'friend'.
"Boyfriend," Belldandy repeated the word to herself,
quietly, blushing
fiercely.
You did that on purpose =p
She had, in fact, been accused several times in the
past of being overly
'friendly' with the demon. The goddess never took
that too seriously,
however, since all of her girlfriends who'd met
Ranma swooned after him,
forgetting their own lectures.
Of course.
'Now that I think about it, that sort of thing
always bothered me for
some reason,' Belldandy mused silently, before
adding mentally, 'The way
those vultures always pawed my Ranma!'
The goddess' blush grew to monstrous proportions,
and she instinctively
looked around the room to check if anyone was there
who could've read
her mind.
'Oh my! Did I just think that?'
Belldandy got up and walked over to Ranma's prone
form. Squatting on the
edge of the bed beside him, she brushed a few bangs
of his unruly hair
out of his face, silently admiring it.
'Do you see me just as a friend... or as something
IMO, 'Do you see me as just a friend...' would sound
better in this case.
more?' she wondered,
momentarily tensing up as Ranma shuddered in his
sleep.
As the demon's body relaxed, Belldandy thought, 'I
wonder what can I do
Once again, it's fine as you have it, but I think 'I
wonder what I can do...' would sound better.
to make him notice me?' biting her lower lip. She
knew what several
girls her age did to get boyfriends, but she wasn't
But at that age, things are so uncertain. Maybe she
should wait a couple hundred years or so.
Suddenly, Ranma noticed that he was in a bed. The
last time he checked,
he hadn't gone to sleep in one. On the verge of
panic, the young demon
examined the arm, and found out that it was attached
to an equally
attractive and very familiar body. At that point, he
did the only thing
he could. Ranma screamed his lungs out.
Belldandy stirred up and yawned, before realizing
that she had fallen
asleep when she should have been watching Ranma.
Looking at him and
fearing the worst, the goddess wasn't prepared to
find him staring wide-
eyed at her face... No, not her face, she realized
suddenly. Remembering
that in all the haste to treat Ranma and Akane the
other day, all she
had on was a robe,
This is starting to make too much sense ^^;
which had slipped slightly during
the night, showing
the young demon a healthy amount of cleavage,
Belldandy blushed beet red
and quickly rearranged it.
"Um... did I die and go to Heaven?" Ranma asked
hesitantly.
Only in Anime...
Ranma and his stupid quests. Where he went, trouble
was sure to follow,
Akane knew that and even managed to accept it to a
degree. But this was
ridiculous! Demons, goddesses, ancient enemies and
spells... it sounded
like a bad fantasy manga!
RANMA: You're just mad, 'cause I get all the love
interests. Nyah Nyah!
By this point, she
wouldn't be surprised if
some reincarnated high elf suddenly showed up and
claimed that she was
Ranma's fiancee.
RANMA: That's actually not such a bad idea...
At least there weren't any
sailor-suited warriors of
love and justice involved... yet.
*shudders* You can only go so far...
Turning towards Urd, who was shielding her eyes with
the palm of her
hand, the Goddess of the Sun told her, in a voice
that brooked no
argument, "Return to your home. There's nothing left
for you here to
do."
Very surprising indeed...
"Hmm," Megumi said, tapping her chin, "I wish I knew
why you were here."
"An easy wish, huh?" the demoness asked, smirking.
"Well, it all started
when me and my kid brother were visiting Asgard..."
An interesting turn of events. Can't wait for the next chapter.
