[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Ranma woke up grumbling. The futon he had slept on last night was an old thing, only good to be thrown into the garbage. It was cold in the dojo, so cold his pop had slept as a panda. Ranma couldn't change into something warmer so he has shivered all night. He and his father had to sleep in the dojo because the almighty Seiya Kou was coming over that very evening and the girls kicked them out to clean the guestroom.

"I haven't met the guy and already I hate his guts... This week is going to be hell..." sighted Ranma. Already the girls at school were going crazy wondering what they would wear when their idol would be around.

"Women... hah! They can't wear anything else at school but their school uniform... Baka... just like that Kawaiikune Akane... who redecorated the house for him. Feh! What a waste of time..." He ducked just in time. Akane had rushed him with one of her extra large mallets which crashed loudly in the floor.

"Who's a kawaiikune?" she asked red with fury.

"We all know you are..." replied Ranma, ducking yet another blow.

"You're lucky I'm going easy..." she said. "I don't want to break anything before Seiya-kun arrives..."

"You haven't met the guy and already you're using his first name! Aren't you a little too fast in using his first name?" Akane stopped chasing and blushed. Ranma couldn't believe it.

"For all we know he might be a stuck-up, boring, overbearing hentai..." said Ranma.

Akane has a sly smile. "We all know you are..." she replied. Behind her, Genma the panda held up a sign. "YEAH! WHAT IS WRONG, SON, JEALOUS?" Ranma walked up to his father and bashed him with his own sign.

"You stay out of this if kawaiikune Akane wants to look like a fool with her prissy teen idol, then why should I care..." Bonk! Akane connected and sent Ranma flying into the koi pond. A very wet and angered Ranma-chan surfaced as Soun got out of the house.

"Ah, Ranma my boy! I see you are bright and early today..."

"It's all because of that macho chick, built like a stick, kawaiikune daughter of yours..." said Ranma-chan hotly.

"RRRRRRRRAAAANMMMAAAA!!!!!" growled Akane.

"CHOTTO MATTE KUDASAI!" said a voice that commended so much authority that they froze. They all looked to who had talked when they facevaulted. It was sweet and meek Kasumi.

"Now, Ranma, I will ask you to not EVER change into a woman and make a spectacle of yourself in front of Kou-sama. And I also want you to behave while we have a guest in the house. If by sheer unluckiness you get splashed with cold water, I do not want you in the house... AM I MAKING MYSELF CLEAR?"

Ranma-chan was so stunned by Kasumi's outbreak that she only replied. "Hai!"

"And you, Akane, I don't want you to run around the house with that mallet of yours for the duration of our guest's stay. You will both stop your bickering and behave for the entire week or else you WILL have to answer to me... Is that CLEAR?"

Akane was equally stunned. "H-Hai!"

"Now you will have to fend for yourselves for breakfast this morning because I still have to plan and devise tonight's feast for our guest... I want you to start behaving now because I will not repeat myself..." with that she turned and headed back to her kitchen. The rest of the morning went rather calmly as each of them did their chores so that everything would be ready for Seiya's arrival.

Soun and Genma were also silent for most of the day but then the kids went away to get Seiya at the train station. Both fathers agreed they would devise a plan to make Ranma jealous. They would encourage Akane to be with Seiya-san all the time. Ranma, being the impetuous man he was, would have no choice but to profess his love to Akane out of jealousy and then, WHAM! they would rush them to the altar to get them married. The two men started to cry of pride at the genius of their plan. 'Operation Seiya to Akane. The art of making Ranma jealous 'was well underway.



---------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------

"Where's the squirt?" asked Seiya as he zipped his duffel bag and arranged the strap on his shoulder.

"Would you believe he went with Mako-chan to her karate class..." replied Taiki.

"You mean he's actually scared enough to learn karate..." asked Seiya incredulous.

"Yes, and don't worry. I had Haruka-san and Mako-chan make sure he comes home safely..." chuckled Taiki.

"I've never seen him act that way... do you think he's overreacting?" asked Seiya. Taiki was about to respond, when the doorbell rang.

"Ha? Who might that be?" wondered Seiya. He opened the door and there stood Usagi and Mamoru. "What? What are you guys doing here?"

"We've come to see you off, Seiya!" beamed Usagi.

"I'm glad you came, but didn't you have something already planned for this afternoon?" asked Seiya. |

"We wanted to see that new DeCaprio movie but we figured the lines would too long so we called Taiki and here we are..." answered Mamoru.

"Ha! I hate to be a partypooper but we have to get going if you want to take the train to Nerima on time... You guys want to ride along in the van?" asked Taiki.

Mamoru and Usagi nodded and they helped Seiya with his bags. They arrived shortly at the train station and Seiya boarded his train, but not before Usagi made him promise to bring her something back from Nerima. He took a seat aboard the train and waved to his friends and soon the train started to move.



-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------

He arrived soon enough in Nerima. As he got off and he was wondering how he would recognize the people that would give him shelter at their home, he did a double take. He saw a very huge sign "Welcome Seiya Kou! from the Tendo Household" with waving fans. So much for incognito, thought Seiya, as he heard young ladies screaming his name. Oh well... I guess trying to hide would be out of the question now. So he put up his best smile and got out of the train. He wasn't all the way out when he felt a lot of hands grabbing him. He even felt a few quick kisses mostly on the cheek followed by "Haaaa he kissed me" and "Aaaaa, he touched me...." Seiya was quickly getting overwhelmed when he almost got hit by a humongous mallet. He then saw a cute short haired girl swinging the mallet wildly as the girls around him scattered.

"You, girl! He's coming with us... in one piece if that's not too much to ask..."

"There she goes again... macho chick... She's lucky she didn't hit him..." remarked Ranma, his arms folded on his chest. A bike appeared next to him.

"Hai... Akane always violent girl" said a purple haired girl with a really high pitched voice.

"Sh-shampoo? What are you doing here?" asked Ranma while the purple girl hugged him so tight he actually was lifted off the ground.

"Shampoo heard big noise... so Shampoo came see... Ranma happy see Shampoo..."

Yeah happy like a guy who goes to the dentist for a root canal... he thought. He explained that they had come there to greet some idol singer because he was going to stay with them for a week. Trying desperately to get the Chinese Amazon girl off him before Akane would notice and bash him on the head. Shampoo turned her head to look in the direction Ranma was talking about.

"Ranma, wo ai.... WO!" She instantly let go of Ranma who fell flat on his face. She looked at Seiya with longing. "Ohh he beautiful..."

Oh great! Another one that goes gaga... he smiled. Well, maybe I'm going to get some peace and quiet for a while.

Akane, seeing Seiya's bewildered face, stopped swinging her mallet, quickly hid it behind her back (for all the good that did) and blushed.

"You must be Tendo Akane... Pleased to meet you" said Seiya.

Ranma, hearing the conversation said to himself... what? He already heard of her macho chick reputation? He was still flat on his stomach as he thought that.

Akane blushed even harder. "Hai, I am, Kou-san. Sorry about that..."

"Please, Tendo-san, call me Seiya... We are going to be together for the week after all..." Seiya replied flashing his most charming smile.

"Of course K-... Seiya-san..." she blushed even deeper. Oh brother! thought Ranma. Now she's giving him the cute and innocent act, just like Dr. Tofu.

"As for the mallet swinging..." he smiled again. "Maybe I should call on you sometimes to be my bodyguard."

"Akane the bodyguard BWahahahahahahaha! NOW that's rich!" laughed Ranma out loud.

"Boy, are you ever in trouble..." said Nabiki. Ranma gasped. He realized he said that out loud. He looked at Akane who was purple with rage. He cringed, oh boy is that going to hurt, he thought.

He waited, but the blow never came. He heard her laugh instead. "Hahahahaha! Ranma you're such a 'Kidder'! He lives with us at the Dojo..." she stressed out the word kidder.

Seiya meanwhile had walked up to Ranma and offered his hand to help him up. Ranma realized he was still lying on the ground. Ranma simply took the hand and let Seiya help me up. He was impressed the guy did have some strength.

"Nice to meet you, Ranma-san!" Seiya gave him a hearty handshake then bowed.

"Uh. Nice to meet you too, Kou!" Ranma returned the bow.

"Ah, please call me Seiya... The other two lights are called Kou, too, so we like to use our first names..." replied Seiya.

Akane then introduced Seiya to her sister Nabiki and Katsumi. She reluctantly introduced Shampoo. Well what do you know, thought Ranma, he's not a snob after all. Hey, maybe this won't be too bad.



--------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------

"Excuse me, could you tell me where the Nerima district is?" asked a boy with a yellow shirt, black pants and a yellow and black bandana.

"Sure, you just go that way... you can't miss it, it's straight ahead..." replied the old lady.

"Domo Arigato gozaimasu..." he said as he watched the old lady walk away. He took out a jar from his backpack. "Now Saotome you will rue the day you humiliated me..."and he headed in the opposite direction the woman gave him.



--------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------

The alarm clock ran in a loft in Tokyo. Under the covers someone grumbled and reached to the clock and stopped the infernal ringing. The arm crawled right back under the warm blankets. The body heaved into a sigh then was still.

Several minutes later, Taiki came into Yaten's room. Sighing heavily, he sat on the bed and nudged him until he got a response.

"Come on, wake up, Yaten.... You can't be late to go to your new school." said Taiki. A muffled answer came back.

" Yougnagnagnagnagnagna to your new school..."

"And good morning to you too, Yaten!" Taiki replied sarcastically. He nudged Yaten again but this time roughlier.

"Okay, okay, okay... I'm up!" grumbled Yaten. His head peeked from under the covers. He didn't want to do this. He didn't want to go to Sarayashiki College. Jyuuban was a nice college, his friends were there. Sarayashiki was the college from hell; rival gang members skirmished daily and frankly he didn't want anything to do with it. But he was stuck, he had no choice and having no choice made Yaten a very cranky guy. He threw off his covers and scratched his head. He started to stretch, when he winced in pain.

"Ouch! I'm all sore..." he complained.

"Mako-chan and Haruka-san did warn you to take it easy, but did you listen?... NoOoOoO..." Said Taiki.

"I don't need a lecture. I need painkillers..." whined Yaten.

"You'll survive... Come on get out of bed and get dressed. You wouldn't want to be late..." replied Taiki.

"I think you're mixing me up with someone who cares..." Yaten sneered.

"Come on. It's only for a week... it'll be over before you know it..." Taiki got up and headed to his own room to get ready.

"I wish it would be over already..." Yaten resigned himself and headed for the bathroom to get a shower.



------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------

Taiki dropped Yaten off at the gate of Sarayashiki College. Drat! I'm too early. What am I supposed to do to kill time around here. Then Yaten heard a pitpat next to him. It was Luna.

"Ah? L-Luna? What are you doing here?" asked Yaten squatting down to pick her up. She jumped in his arms.

"Ara... Usagi-chan wanted me to make sure you got to school all right..." she blushed slightly.

"I'm here... Aren't I? You should have more faith in me, Luna..." Yaten said as he scratched her throat gently. Luna's only response was to purr.

"Myiiiiiiiiii!" Both Yaten and Luna turned their head to see where that kitten cried out. He and Luna gasped when they saw three boys playing wishbone with some poor little cat.

"Poor little fella. How could they...? Yaten-kun?" Luna stopped talking and looked up to Yaten who was growling. He let put Luna down and started to run in the direction of the bullies. Luna wanted to cry out for him to stop but students were coming in the schoolyard. She couldn't talk so she ran after him meowing to get his attention.



--------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------

"Well, I hope this guy isn't too much of a stuck-up..." said Kurabara. "Or else I'll put him in his place..."

"Haven't you promised Yukina-chan that you would protect him from the bullies..." asked Kurama. "She won't be pleased if she learns that..."

Kuwabara facevaulted. "You wouldn't dare tell her?... I didn't mean it... honest...".

Kurama laughed softly Kuwabara was so obvious when it came to Yukina. Up ahead Keiko fumed.

"Hurry up, you guys! We've got to be there before Yaten Kou arrives. You heard those jerks yesterday. They said they would rearrange his face because most of those guys girlfriend's had a crush on him..."

Yuusuke yawned; it was too damn early for him. "What are we, bodyguards?" Keiko frowned. They were almost at the school gates when they heard Yaten say, "You leave that cat alone... Why don't you pick on someone your own size?"

Keiko, Yuusuke, Kuwabara and Kurama said "Uh-oh!" They heard a cat screech and spit as it was thrown over the school fence. They heard a cackle.

"Oh... you mean like you?" one of boys said. Me and my big mouth, thought Yaten.

"Come on, get him!" The four boys rushed Yaten from all sides and since a group had formed behind him, Yaten had no choice but to stand his ground. He dodged the first punches but he ran out of places to dodge to and got hit in the stomach. Luckily for him, it only grazed him so his wind wasn't cut off. He swung and landed an uppercut under one of his assailants knocking him out. Yaten felt a sharp pain on the back of his neck as he realized that having a ponytail wasn't such a great idea when you are in a fight. Two guys, as the third punched Yaten in the stomach, quickly overwhelmed him; he fell to his knees, gasping for breath.

One of the guys made him stand up again by pulling him by the ponytail. "Now how about we rearrange that cute face of yours?"

"I think you'd better not..." said a voice behind them.

"... Or you'll have to answer to us." Another voice said.

"U-Urameshi-kun!... K-Kuwabara-kun..." The guys let go of Yaten who slumped back to his knees. Keiko and Kurama went to help him. Kurama told Yaten to take slow steady breaths. Yaten tried to do this but he felt the content of his stomach had other ideas. "I-I'm going to be sick..." he croaked. Keiko and Kurama grabbed him and helped him to the restroom.

Meanwhile, Yuusuke and Kuwabara were busy teaching proper welcoming etiquette to the bullies that attacked Yaten. They made them promise and therefore set an example that if someone else would try a stunt like that, Yuusuke and Kuwabara would beat the crap out of them. Feeling they made their point clear, they joined their friends in the boys' restroom.

Yaten was splashing water on his face when he saw blood in the water. He looked at his face to see if the blood came from there. He sighed... no injuries on his face. Then he looked at the hand he punched the guy with. His skin had split on his knuckles and he was bleeding a lot. Keiko also noticed and told the others they should go to the infirmary.



--------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------

Taiki's day at Miaka's College was nice. The other students were very polite and easygoing with him. Of course he had a pack of girls following him around but he expected that. After all, it would only be for a week and he would go back to Jyuuban where people didn't follow him as much any more.

Taiki was happily talking away with Yui and Miaka, when they passed the old library. Taiki paused and asked the two girls if they would mind if they did a quick stop at the library. The girls didn't mind.

Upon entering the library, someone asked Yui to help her with a science project. She excused herself and went with the girl. Taiki went in the poetry section of the library while Miaka rushed to see if the library had any new Manga. After a quick unfruitful search, Taiki sighed. He wanted to find a new poetry book so he could send Ami a few poems while he was gone. Unfortunately, they had the same books as in Jyuuban, so he started to roam in the different sections. Then he saw Miaka, but she was dressed in an old Chinese costume. Intrigued, Taiki moved closer. Miaka saw him and beckoned him to follow her. She took a stairway and opened a door at the top of the steps. Taiki, who had tried to talk to her, still followed at a few pace's distance.

Yui met Miaka in the Manga section and asked her where Taiki was.

"He's in the poetry section just there..." she replied; only Taiki wasn't there anymore. Both girls looked at each other and started to look for him. They couldn't find him anywhere.

"You don't think?..." said Miaka.

"Let's not take any chances and see if he is there..." Both girls started to run toward an all too familiar stairway.

Meanwhile, Taiki had come into the room and was surprised to see it empty. Miaka had indeed disappeared. But Taiki didn't delve on that very long when he saw all the old books in front of him. Feeling like a kid in an unattended candy store, Taiki looked at the titles. Most of them were very old books, probably donations, and mostly in Chinese. He looked at one promising title which roughly translated into "The story of the four Celestial gods". He tried to take the book, but for some odd reason it was stuck there. Fearing he might break the book, Taiki decided to check another one. There was a smaller book next to it and it looked like a poetry book. Taiki took it and it easily slid off. After dusting it, he read the cover title, "The love of Suzaku no Miko's headmaiden." it looked like an old epic poem. Without hesitation he opened the book and started to read.

"This is a story of love... of love that has spanned over countless centuries. Of lovers fated to be rejoined lifetime after lifetime. And of the futile attempt Chaos has of spoiling this Love..." Chaos?... Taiki thought I wonder if...

Just then Yui and Miaka entered the room and cried out. "Matte! Don't read anything..." But it was too late. Already Taiki's body began to glow. He disappeared, leaving only the book falling on the carpeted floor....
