W*ING Higley Presents:

U-Jin's Ranma Diaries

Episode #7: All Fall Down

Three Months Have Passed........

�Nabiki Tendo, bend over and spread your ass cheeks.�

Nabiki complied, spreading her anal region open so the

prison guard could shine her flashlight and ensure that Nabiki wasn�t trying to smuggle any foreign substances out of the jail.

�She�s clean.�

Another guard walked up and shoved a pile of ratty clothing into Nabiki�s arms.

�Here�s the clothes you came here in. You can change behind that curtain.�

Nabiki huffed as she walked into the changing room. After 14 months, the clothing had a foul stench about them.

*****

Although no official statistics were kept, it was widely believed that Nabiki Tendo, at age 18, was the youngest person ever imprisoned in the nation of Japan for income tax evasion.

Normally, people her age convicted of tax evasion were given a stiff fine or probation. But Nabiki�s conviction had been the end result of a five-year effort by Nerima law enforcement to convict her of something, anything. By the time Nabiki had been indicted, she had come to control most of the illegal gambling and smuggling in and out of Nerima district.

Nabiki was also the major domo of Tokyo�s burgeoning Internet porn industry, using unauthorized photographs of her own family and friends to launch her websites.

But that mattered little to Kasumi as she stood in the parking lot of the Miyagi Prefectual Women�s Prison. Nabiki was coming home after 14 months, and as her sister, it was her duty to welcome her back and give her a ride home. Even if Nabiki had posted nude photos of her on a website.

*****

They rode in silence, Nabiki puffing away on a cigarette as Kasumi drove.

�It is good to have you back,� Kasumi said.

�Yeah, good to be back,� Nabiki said while still holding the cigarette in her mouth.

�So, how�s little sister?�

Kasumi hesitated, �She is doing well.�

�I saw in your last letter that her boyfriend dumped her.�

�More like she dumped him, after Akane found out that Bart was cheating on her.�

�She didn�t take that well, did she?�

�No. Akane was humiliated. Thank goodness Ryoga was there for her.�

Nabiki put out her cigarette. �Yeah, so she�s been seeing him now?�

�Yes. Though their relationship has been tentative.�

�How so?�

�As I said, Akane was pretty emotionally beaten up by Bart. She was on the rebound going into the relationship, and Ryoga hasn�t wanted to push her.�

�But are they alright now?�

Kasumi nodded. �I believe so.�

There was silence once again, neither could think of anything to say.

Finally, �So, Nabiki, how was prison?�

Nabiki frowned and stubbed out her cigarette. �I really don�t want to talk about it, Kasumi.�

*****

�Yes, yes, Saotome. We�re all anticipating your arrival tomorrow.�

It didn�t take long for Nabiki to fall back into her old habits, which included bugging her father�s phone. She listened intently on her headset as her father spoke to someone named Genma. That name sounded vaguely familiar to Nabiki.

�Yes, old friend, our deal still stands. I just hope your son is prepared to hold up his part of the bargain.�

�Uh, yes. He will be as soon as we tell him.�

�You haven�t told him that the deal is back on?�

�Well, not yet. He doesn�t like being forced into things, and we�re afraid how me might react to an arranged marriage.�

Nabiki�s eyes widened in shock. Saotome, that was the name of the boy who was originally going to be engaged to one of them two-and-a-half years ago. This was bad, very bad.

�Well, Saotome, I just hope you tell him before me meet tomorrow night.�

�Oh, don�t worry, we�ll tell him tomorrow morning when we pick him up.�

Tomorrow?!!? For one of the few times in her life, Nabiki Tendo began to panic.

�Uh, Soun, old friend. Might I ask which one of your daughters you intend to engage to my son?�

�Well, that�s a good question. Both my eldest daughter, Kasumi, and my youngest, Akane, are involved right now. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, I guess my middle daughter Nabiki will have to do.�

In her room, Nabiki was paralyzed with fear. She had to get married, and she had to do it tonight.

*****

Genma hung up the phone. �Well, Soun seems eager.�

Nodoka was sewing. �That�s good.� She chuckled slightly.

�What�s so funny, my wife?�

�I was just thinking. I�m glad we�re finally going through with this.�

�Oh?�

�I�ve just had this weird fear, this fear that Ranma would end up with some damn foreigner or something.�

Genma frowned. �You don�t like gaijin, do you?�

Nodoka shook her head. �I suppose it�s different for you and Ranma, being on the road for ten years, seeing all those other cultures. But I�m just too set in my ways. Did I ever tell you my grand-father died in World War II?�

�No.�

�He did. It seems silly I never told you before, considering how long we�ve been married. He was killed by some Chinese rebel in Shanghai. I hate the Chinese.�

Genma stared at his wife, his face neutral.

�My biggest fear,� she said, �is that Ranma would end up dating some girl from China or something.�

*****

Ryoga enjoyed kissing Akane, and this one was no different. As with all their kisses, it was short and sweet. Neither one willing to move beyond this early, chaste phase of their romantic relationship, both afraid to rush into something that could ruin what they�d carefully built over the last three months from the ashes of Akane�s failed relationship with Bart Savagewood and Ryoga�s with Akari Unryu.

Akane smiled. �Thank you for taking me to the movies, Ryoga.�

�Anything for you, Akane.�

�Ryoga, stop being so formal. You�re not my servant or anything.�

�Sorry, it�s just...�

She patted his cheek. �I know. And...� She took his hand.

�Ryoga, I lo-�

�Hey, sis! No hello for me?�

Akane spun around to see Nabiki standing in the doorway.

�Nabiki!� She screamed in delight. �You�re home.�

�Now what do you think?�

Akane bounded up the path to give her sister a fierce hug. Ryoga watched the happy reunion with a huge grin.

*She almost said it! She almost said she loves me!*

Nabiki waved to the lost-boy. �Hey Ryoga, Kasumi�s throwing a party for me. Why don�t you join us?�

�Please, Ryoga.� Akane said.

�Well, um, sure...�

*****

By 10:00 that night, Ryoga was on his sixth cup of sake. On the other side of the room, Soun was passed out, and Akane and Kasumi both seemed tired.

�So,� Nabiki said, �I bet you�re a big drinker, Ryoga.�

�Nah..not really.� Ryoga seemed to be having trouble keeping his head straight, Nabiki noted. �I�m not really much of a drinker�

�That so.� Nabiki poured Ryoga another drink. �Drink up, Ryoga. The night�s still young.�

*****

Tokyo�s Rippongi district is usually referred to as the �Americanized� district of Tokyo. Aside from being the location of the corporate HQs for some of the world�s largest corporations, Rippongi was where most of the western style nightclubs and restaurants could be found.

Chief among those attractions was a restaurant called Ribera�s Steakhouse. Ribera�s was founded in 1993 by a semi-retired pro wrestler named Mitsuhiru Matsunaga. As such, on any given night, a who�s who of celebrities within the wrestling world could be found dining at Ribera�s. It was this fact that served to bring in the customers every night, eager to catch a glimpse of their favorite wrasslers.

Another, newer reason that people came to dine at Ribera�s every night was the ultra-hot, red-headed waitress that now worked there. If most of those customers who came to ogle at her gravity defying breasts knew the truth about her, however, they�d probably eat at McDonald�s or somewhere else.

Although the truth about Ranma�s true gender was kept hidden from the customers, it was known by most of the staff. Ranma found it difficult to file an income tax report when he was listed under the wrong sex.

�Ahh, Saotome, come here. I want you to meet our new night manager.� Matsunaga motioned for Ranma, currently a male, to follow him.

Matsunaga led Ranma to the back office, where Ranma was surprised to find a gorgeous, black-haired girl standing there. Ranma guessed her age to be at about 25. She was beautiful, he thought. A different type of beauty than Shampoo, to be sure. She seemed more mature, more sophisticated than her age should have allowed.

�Madoka, this is the sex-changing waitress I was telling you about.�

Ranma smiled and reached out to shake her hand.

�I�m Ranma Saotome. Nice to meet you.�

�A pleasure. My name�s Madoka. Madoka Ayukawa.�

*****

Nabiki grunted as she dragged the unconscious Ryoga Hibiki into her room. As short as he was, he weighed a ton.

It had taken 14 cups of sake for him to finally pass out drunk. Nabiki only hoped he wouldn�t wake up until the morning. Finally dropping him on the floor, Nabiki cringed as he made a loud thumping sound. After making sure that no one had in the house had been awakened, she set to work.

She stripped Ryoga and threw him onto the bed. She then scattered his clothes about the room, followed by her own. Then, she took a glass of water and mixed it in with red food coloring, which she pored over her sheets.

Nabiki smirked. �So far so good. Now I just have to wait for Kasumi to do the rest.�

Snuggling into bed beside the unconscious pig-boy, Nabiki kissed him on the cheek. �I hate to do this to you Ryoga, but there really is no other way.�

*****

Dawn at the Tendo residence:

�Nabiki, breakfast is ready.� Kasumi stood bleary eyed before Nabiki�s room. She hardly ever drank, and last night she had drank too much.

�Nabiki, I said breakfast is ready.� Still not getting any response, Kasumi opened the door.

�Nabiki......OH MY!!!!!!�

Hearing her cry, Akane and Soun rushed from their rooms to see what all the commotion was. To their horror, Nabiki and Ryoga lay asleep together in Nabiki�s bed. Clothes were strewn all over the place, as if they had been thrown off in a rush.

�NABIKI! What is the meaning of this?!?!� Soun�s angry yell awoke both Ryoga and Nabiki.

�Uhhh....wha...� Nabiki feigned a hangover, even though she had not had anything to drink the night before.

Ryoga groaned as he stirred. �What happened?�

Finally, Akane spoke. �What do you think happened?�

Ryoga finally opened his eyes, to find himself laying in bed next to Nabiki Tendo, with his girlfriend and the rest of her family staring at them.

�Uhhh.....Akane, this isn�t what you think.�

�What are you talking about, Ryoga honey?� Nabiki reached over and kissed him on the cheek.

�Ryoga honey!!??� Akane�s battle aura began to flair.

�Akane, I swear, we didn�t do anything.� Ryoga inadvertently kicked the sheets off as he said this, revealing a deep red stain around Nabiki�s torso.

Kasumi reddened. �Oh my.....�

Tears began to flow from Akane�s eyes. �You...you jerk. I trusted you! I...I..I loved you. And this is how you repay that trust? You bastard!� She slapped him, hard. Then she stormed out of the room.

�Akane, wait...urk!� Ryoga was stopped by Soun, who now held a tanto blade to his throat.

�Hibiki, you�ve broken the heart of my youngest daughter and stolen the virginity of my middle. How do you plan to pay for this dishonor?�

�But...but...I swear, I didn�t touch Nabiki. I can�t even remember anything that happened last night.�

�I can remember.� Nabiki said. �You were great last night, Ryoga honey.�

Soun�s grip around Ryoga�s neck tightened.

�Please, Mr. Tendo. I�ll do anything.�

�So you shall. If you have any sense of decency left, you�ll marry my daughter by the end of the day.

Ryoga gulped, Nabiki smiled inwardly. *I�m sorry Akane. I hated to do this to you, but it�s the only way to avoid marrying that Saotome boy. Once you and he are married, I�ll divorce Ryoga and be done with this.*

To be continued

Preview of next episode: �Ah, hello. My name�s Kasumi Tendo. Now that Nabiki�s trapped Ryoga, is he doomed to marriage with the ice queen? Also, what�s Madoka Ayukawa doing here? Will Ranma fall under her spell like Kyosuke did years before? And how will Nodoka react to Ranma�s relationship with Shampoo? All this, plus lots of fan service and casual sex in the next exciting episode of U-Jin�s Ranma Diaries!

Author�s Comments: There really is a Ribera�s Steakhouse in Japan, and it is owned and operated by a wrestler named Mitsuhiru Matsunaga. Trust me, as dumb as it seems now, the pro wrestling aspect will play a major part of an upcoming story arc in this series, and it won�t sink the entire fic either, I swear.

For those who didn�t get the joke, Kimagure Orange Road�s Kyosuke was Ukyo�s �john� in episode #6.
