InuYasha Fan Fiction / Ranma 1/2 Fan Fiction ❯ Chance Encounter ❯ encounter 7 ( Chapter 7 )
[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
My thanks go out to the little bit of people that reviewed my last chapter.
mm.org
Dumbledork: The whole Ranma series to me is repetitive to me so I don't see any reason for the story not to be and so far there is little plot to this story besides them running into each other and getting used to seeing each other. Eventually it will be a Ranma/ Kagome story....I just have to build up to it.
Kagome Lady of the Rain: glad you liked it and here is your update....look for another update sometime this week.
Renata-sama: glad to be of help, I know it makes me feel better to write humorous stuff so I am glad people are happy to read it.
As always my thanks go out to my beta BT for booting me into action.
This is a short chapter but I will be writing another chapter that of course BlazeTiger has got my brain circling around the idea. Look for another chapter on Wednesday or so.
Today was going to be her last day in her world for a while, so she decided to go shopping for everyone's favorite foods. She was coming down the same street she always did , turned a corner she always turned, and found herself in a street that was NOT always there.
She slowly walked down the street, thinking that maybe they had done some remodeling, and was about to put it from her mind when she saw a certain pig-tailed person enter a grocery store not that far ahead of her.
"Again?"
She looked around, confused. What in the world? Still not coming to a conclusion, she decided to follow him into the store. She was going to buy food anyway, right?
She entered the store, and looked around, not seeing him right off the bat. She shrugged, looked around at the food, and started putting things into the basket she had picked up. When she go to the back of the store she saw him, at a small photo shop they had set up, looking at a picture.
Curious about this boy she was forever running into, she sidled up to him and took a peek at
the picture.
In it were a number of people all in beachwear except for an older man and a panda. Panda? Around Ranma there were very pretty girls. Who would have thought that Ranma was that muscular under his cloths. She felt a blush rise to her cheeks and she covered her mouth with a hand. She must have made some sound because his head snapped around.
She laughed a little saying, "Sorry, Sorry. Ah are those the women you say are always after you?” she quickly said as she saw he was about to snap angrily at her.
He looked at her for a second, clearly wondering if he should tell her or not. Finally he shrugged.
"Yeah that's them.” He pointed to the girl with short blue-black hair.
"That's Akane, my original fiancée, she had first claim… I guess you could say," then he looked embarrassed. "I mean, umm, not that it was our idea or anything..." he trailed off, his face red now. Then he looked back at her.
“What are you doin' here anyway? Following me again?"
"As if I want to," she snapped at him, aggravated. "I was just going to the store and somehow ended up on this street. Why would I be following you, of all people?"
She did not realize she was advancing toward him until she saw he was bent over backwards over the photo counter.
Then, with an embarrassed laugh, she backed off about a foot or so.
“Now I know how Kouga feels when Inuyasha gives him that greeting,” she muttered under her breath.
She looked up just in time to see the tip of his pigtail go around the corner.
"Ranma, wait we need to talk,” she cried as she followed him. She caught up to him as he exited the store, crashing into his back as he stopped suddenly, almost sending both of them to the ground.
"What? Not that I'm not grateful, but why did you stop?" When she didn't get an answer, she leaned sideways to see what was getting his attention. The older man and a panda were standing in front of him.
"Panda?" she said without thinking, not having seen one outside of zoos.
Suddenly the older man let out a yell, "Ranma what is the meaning of this?" He was pointing at them as he yelled and she followed his vision until she got to where she had apparently grabbed onto Ranma's arm to keep from falling.
She quickly let go with a blush.
"Ah, yes… well… you see...," she stammered out, when Ranma rounded on her.
"You really do cause nothing but problems when I see you."
Blush and panda forgotten instantly, she sent right back at him.
"You seem to have problems whether I am here or not, and if you weren't in such a hurry every time I saw you..."
"I don't want to see you, that is why I am always leaving."
"Oh, as if I am always wanting to see you."
"Well, you do see me before I see you."
"That's because you always have your head up your..." someone clearing their throat stopped her. So many blushes in one day. She and Ranma were in each other's faces and had forgot about their audience. She straightened up and tried to at least appear lady-like.
She stuck her nose up in the air and brushed by the two in front of them, going back the way she came.
She didn't even look back when she heard a heavy thud or she would have seen that the panda had hit Ranma over the head with a wooden sign and she would have had the satisfaction of seeing Ranma twitching, facedown in the sidewalk.
