Title: Ranko's Mad as Hell!!!
Chapter 2, The Meeting of Ranma and Ranko; The Battle Ends

**Ranma's Mind**

The battle started as soon as Ranko had shouted out the last number, she was right behind them as she screamed the battle cry. Representations of many people that Ranma had met in his life were there. People like Cologne, Shampoo, Ryoga, Konatsu, and Akane and so on and so forth. Even a representation of his mother was there fighting along side the other parts of the half man's personalities. The panther itself was still lying by the gateway to the outer reaches of Ranma's mind. It had not moved a muscle since everyone started running towards it to fight the big cat. As they ran towards it, some started to scream in utter terror from the fear each one of them shared of the neko-ken. One of the first to not make it to the neko-ken persona was a version of young Ranma. He was crying and screaming for his father and mother. The mother persona ran towards him leaving the battle to take care of the small child. However, the Genma persona just left him there bemoaning how weak his son was. Many others fell to the fear as well, each one of them either a version of Ranma or someone who was weaker than he was when he had first met the person on his training trip.

Many were still able to make it to the panther guarding the gate, and one of the first to arrive at the gate was Cologne. Pogoing along on her cane she lashed out with it trying to aim for a shiatsu point on the panther. The cat just ignored the attack, because it had not even caused it any damage. Being the lazy cat it was, and also being a bit over confident in itself, the neko-ken persona just ignored Cologne at first. However that would prove to be it's downfall as the ancient Amazon aimed for vital paralyzation points.

Next to arrive was Ryoga who kept on getting lost in the crowd, yet managed to make it to the panther and the gate. Rushing in towards the panther, the persona of the eternally lost boy lived up to Ranma's memories of him. For as the lost boy was about to attack the panther he turned his head and got distracted long enough by the persona of Akane and got lost again.

Akane was the next to arrive on the scene jumping into the fray with powerful punches and kicks. "DAMMIT RANKO I'M A MARTIAL ARTIST TOO!" she would scream with each attack she would make towards the neko-ken persona. The Akane persona being pissed off that she wasn't chosen to go out beyond the gate like Ranko was. Jealousy rearing its ugly head again when it came to the younger Tendo daughter. The panther however loved Akane and gently batted her away from the fight with a backhand blow from its gigantic paw. For it was trying to not harm the favorite one of the personas. However the giant panther started to get annoyed as more and more of the personas continued to show up. Konatsu, Tatewaki, Kodachi, Shampoo, Mr. Tendo, Kasumi, Nabiki, Happosai, Ukyo, Sasuke, Principal Kuno, and many more. Each one fighting in their own personal ways, Kasumi was using her vacuum cleaner to try and vacuum the panther up, which ended up causing it a bit of pain. Nabiki decided throwing out dollar signs from one of her ledgers would help. Therefore the mercenary girl threw numbers and dollar signs of how much Ranma owed her at the panther. It was a tactic meant to throw the panther off guard and try to keep its attention off of the other apparitions attacking it. Soun and Genma both cheated with their attacks, and if those didn't work then the two of them would do the crouch of the white tiger. Even the Kuno's were fighting in their own insane ways. The principal throwing pineapple bombs while Tatewaki spouted off poetry to cause the panther a headache then attack with his bokken. Kodachi would laugh out her insane laughter and then attack with her various weapons.

Ranko and the personas quarry was distracted and in pain both physically and mentally, also it was beginning to get very very pissed off. Having enough the persona that represented the neko-ken roared, knocking some of it's assailants off of their feet and tumbling backwards head over heals into tree's and walls. Some of them ran in utter terror, succumbing to the fear the neko-ken was instilling into them. Out of thousands of personas, only one thousand were left able to fight. The leader of this rebellion stood at the front line with her troops and growled.

"Hear me! We need to fight together as a team; this fighting separately is not working! If we want to win we need to fight together. Are you all with me!?" the red headed pigtailed girl asked the remaining personas.

"Yes we are with you! Please lead us to victory!" they all called out in unison, but some were not as confident as the others. Fear was starting to get past their own defenses, and it was making it hard to even want to face the neko-ken.

Presently the panther had various cuts, bruises and other wounds on it. Also, it was currently glaring at the remnants of the warriors that Ranko had gotten together to fight it. Trying to decide on a course of action stayed the neko-ken persona a little bit, wanting to prolong their suffering before knocking them out cold. It would not kill the personas; no it wouldn't because as much as it wanted to kill them, he needed them to survive. With no personas meant no Ranma and no Ranma meant no life. As cat like as the panther was it still knew that it needed them alive for it's own survival.

Finally coming to a decision on how to best torture them, the catlike creature sheathed it's claws, and closed it's mouth. Then it lunged at them intending to play with the remaining personas as if they were nothing but kitty toys. However, the personas had no such ideas on sitting around in one big group and being played with like that, and upon having seen the panther lunge at them, the apparitions scattered to the wind. Each one going in a different direction, some jumped up into the proverbial air, while others leapt to the side and even some dove under the lunging cat to get away from it.

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

During all of this, Ranma was beginning to get frustrated at not being able to get out of the invisible cage. He had tried everything he could possibly think of, that being all of his martial arts skills. The pigtailed martial artist had thrown out Katchu Tenshin Amaguriken's repeatedly at the wall with little success, therefore he tried just basic punches and kicks since the former had failed. After that he even infused ki into his attacks to try and put a dent into the wall. This was all to no avail as he could not even put a dent in the invisible barrier. Afterwards with nothing left to loose, Ranma then pulled out the Umisenken and Yamasenken Techniques. Those too were to little avail, but he had caused a little damage with the vacuum blades. Although they had done very little damage, the sex changing martial artist had a bit of hope.

"So it seems ki attacks are a bit more useful against the walls then plain ol' physical attacks. Maybe if I try a Moko Takabisha I can get outta here," he mused to himself. Trying to come up with a plan of escape, the youthful martial artist was trying to think of a way out of this. Although not many knew of it, Ranma thought a lot when on the roof of the Tendo's home. However, he rarely if ever came up with a solution to many of his problems and got caught in that vicious cycle all over again. Many people who did not like Ranma thinking, were currently frozen in the waking world hoping that the sound they heard was not the world coming to an end. In spite of this, the world didn't come to an end and those in the waking world went about their business, shaking off the strange feeling.

Ranma for his part started to channel his ki into his palms, getting ready to let off the biggest ki blast he could. It would certainly drain him, but if he could make a hole in the wall it would be all worth it. Taking some time he continued to gather the needed energy into his hands. Energy tendrils swirled into the ever growing ball of ki, golden energy flowing into his hands, and the blue aura flickered around his body. Finally having had gathered enough energy he aimed the blast at one of the walls and let it rip forward.

"MOKO TAKABISHA DOUBLE!" the pigtailed martial artist screamed out as two sets of ki blasts fired their way towards the wall. Upon hitting the wall, the twin beams of ki met resistance, and for a moment it seemed that the wall would win in the end. Nevertheless, it did not win and the twin ki beams blasted a hole into the wall so big that smoke started to pour into the room. Ranma was on his hands and knee's from the drain on his ki reserves. Or at least what he thought was a drain on his reserves.

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

Back at the battle between the personas and the neko-ken apparition, the battle seemed like a stalemate. Those following Ranko seemed to be outsmarting the panther at every turn, and the panther continually tested them to keep them on their toes. It was very frustrating and both parties were getting tired.

"We need to all attack at the same time. Attack it from all sides and overwhelm it with sheer force of numbers. If we can do that then we can win... but only if we attack together. On the count of three... One, two, THREE!!!" Ranko screamed out, and the personas attacked as one, each one attacking in their own fashion but as a team. At that exact instant, the Moko Takabisha fired off by Ranma blasted through the wall of where the battle was currently going on. Energy ripped through the wall like tissue paper and knocked everyone off of their feet including the neko-ken. It was like lightning dancing in the sky, beautiful yet deadly.

Ranko was just getting to her feet after being knocked off of them when she saw another persona in danger of being hit by the energy blast. The pigtailed girl persona of Ranma's female side got to her feet and ran. Pumping all the energy she could into her legs to get in front of the blast. At the same time the neko-ken was also running to protect the persona, its own survival depending on each and every persona and apparition surviving. Both of them reached the other persona barely in time, knocking the stray persona out of the way. However, it was too late for her and she was hit full on by the energy blast, knocking her into the neko-ken who had gotten behind her a second later when it was trying to help save the persona. The blast knocked the two into each other and exploded in a brilliant flash of light, blinding everyone in the vicinity of the explosion temporarily.

As time passed personas and apparitions regained their senses, there was a big cloud of smoke where the explosion had taken place. Some stumbled and others walked over to the place, hoping that neither the neko-ken nor Ranko had been killed. It would mean a lot of pain for all of them and also Ranma himself.

Not everyone had come to the place of the explosion, many were still afraid of the panther and didn't have the courage to find out of it or Ranko were alright. Those that did however were in for a shock, as the smoke cleared two forms could be seen. One was that of a cat and the other was that of a humanoid figure. Both of them walked out of the small crater that had been made. When the two came out of the crater both of them looked remarkably different. Ranko had cat ears coming out of her head and a tail out of her ass. The panther seemed a bit more intelligent and had a few human like features on its face. Its eyes were now human and it's body was smaller than before, although the panther was still none the less very frightening to all who were around it. After clearing the crater the panther just collapsed from exhaustion and pain. Ranko herself looked to be on the verge of collapsing herself, but did not and walked away from the panther not noticing the cat-like features she now displayed. Those that saw her like that backed away in fear, not knowing what had happened to Ranko and the panther at all. Some speculated that it was a merger between the two and that they were in cahoots all along. Others thought it was a freak accident caused by the energy blast itself, and even others thought that both Ranko and the panther were one and the same just two different parts of the same persona. No one really knew and would not know for a while to come. Ranko herself just made her way towards the doorway and left the field of paradise they all lived in. Many of the others could have followed but either were to afraid what the panther would do or were too tired and injured from the fight. Therefore Ranko left alone, the tail swishing behind her as she walked a bit cat-like towards the cage that held Ranma.

**Waking World**

In the waking world, Kasumi walked into the living room to only find Ranma still out cold. It had been 4 hours since he had fallen unconscious from the actual braining he had received from Akane. Usually he would have been up by now but something seemed very wrong.

"Daddy do you know why Ranma hasn't woken up yet?" Kasumi asked in a concerned tone. Very concerned for Ranma's well being as well as the well being of the entire household as it was her duty to keep the Wa of the house in balance. Also, her concern lay with the fact that Akane always took her frustrations out on Ranma. If he wasn't around to receive them then the youngest Tendo would find other means and those usually meant cooking or more brick breaking.

"No I don't Kasumi dear, but he will wake up soon I'm sure." The Patriarch of the Tendo house hold consoled his daughter.

Nabiki however was not so sure that Ranma would be waking up so soon. The color of his skin seemed a bit too pale for her tastes. Even she wasn't so cold and heartless to not care about the house holds main source of income. If he didn't wake up soon, Ranma could be in some deep trouble and then even more trouble would find him. Trouble always found Ranma, whether he liked it or not and it was a sad truth.

"I'm not so sure daddy; he looks a bit too pale maybe you should call Doctor Tofu?" Showing only the slightest bit of concern, which she covered up quickly before anyone could see it.

"Maybe you're right Nabiki, Kasumi please call Doctor Tofu?" he asked his eldest daughter

"Sure father," Kasumi said cheerfully, her ever present smile on her face.

"Oh why did I have to have such a weak son!?" Genma bemoaned for the umpteenth time that day since Ranma had fallen unconscious.

Nabiki having done her part walked up the stairs, "I'll be upstairs doing my homework daddy. Let me know when Ranma wakes up, I have some business to discuss with him," the middle Tendo daughter said in a nonchalant manner. However secretly she just wanted to know he was ok, and once she was upstairs in her room, Nabiki locked the door then sat at her desk.

Putting her head into her hand, Nabiki sighed softly as she started to daydream about Ranma's girl side. Those soft curves, deep blue eyes, and that gorgeous red hair sent shivers down the mercenary girls' spine. Oh the personality could be worked on but still she couldn't help herself when it came to Ranma's girl side, and so she pulled out some pictures she had kept just for herself. Those she had taken of Ranma's girl side while Ranma was sleeping, or when the boy turned girl was not prepared for it.

"Why is it that I have to fall for someone who has all that I want except for one thing…?" Nabiki asked herself softly. Wondering for the umpteenth time as to why she had given up a prize like Ranma. As soon as she wondered that, the answer came to her in an instant. Ranma was a male only with a curse; she wanted a full girl all the time and not just some half girl who was in reality a man.

"Akane you really did it this time, you really hurt him badly. Knocking him unconscious like that…" the middle Tendo daughter said to herself while looking at the pictures of Ranma's girl form. However, she then put them away and went over her ledger and groaned deeply.

The ledger showed the profit margin and it was becoming less and less. The normal fights were not cutting it anymore since Ranma always won. Money was coming in but not as much as usual and times were getting to be really tight and most bets were now just consisting on how long it would take Ranma to beat Kuno or one of the other various rivals or fiancées. It was just not enough, even the blackmailing and other things like racketeering was not paying off. Now this little incident from Akane was setting them back even more since they had to now pay for Doctor Tofu to come and look Ranma over.

"Akane I swear if Ranma dies, I will make it so you suffer for it…" Nabiki said to herself while trying to balance the books some more. Usually she wouldn't think about revenge against her own sister, but with how finances were tight and they needed the money. That and she was in love with Ranma's girl form was affecting her more than she would ever admit aloud. [1]

----------

Back at the Neko Hanten Cologne awaited her Great granddaughters return from deliveries. Mousse was already in the kitchen cooking the food for the customers. He was battered and beaten looking from the fight earlier on with Ranma. Also he had a few more bruises from the old ghoul and he continued to grumble and complain about the old mummy and her strict rules.

Cologne herself was a bit cross at the blind fool for attacking son-in-law after all she had heard about what had happened at Phoenix Mountain. Attacking Ranma was foolish to say the least, with all that power and if he were to get angry enough to use it. Everyone around him would be in grave danger, she was also not happy that she had heard that Shampoo was trying to make Ranma hers through treachery. For if the pigtailed martial artist found out there would be repercussions and it would not be pretty. Cologne was not stupid as she had lived for 300 years and one did not get to be that old by making a lot of mistakes. Therefore she was very cross at her wayward granddaughter who was making matters even worse. It was not guaranteed that Shampoo would be the one Ranma would choose if things fell through with Akane.

["That granddaughter of mine has gone too far. I will have to teach her a lesson soon. Messing with people's minds the way she is only will make things worse in the long run,"] she spoke to herself in her native Chinese mandarin while serving customers. Not enjoying what she had observed of Shampoo's outings to the Tendo Dojo. Watching the intricate use of shiatsu points on Ranma and the drugging of Akane, this in itself wasn't a lot, but it was enough that the rift was getting bigger. When they had first arrived to get Ranma, she would have approved of this tactic, but now it was sheer folly to pursue it this way.

["I just hope I can head this off before it gets too far out of hand,"] again she spoke to herself before getting back to work. Planning on dealing with Shampoo later that night, and also dealing with Mousse for his disobedience with regards to Amazon Laws.

**Ranma's Mind**

After having fired off what seemed to Ranma as a ki blast and falling to his knee's, the pig tailed martial artist slowly rose unsteadily to his feet. "Ugh… never felt this bad since the first time I created the technique…" Ranma mused tiredly as he made his way towards the hole in the wall. Being able to make out the cooling sides of his prison that had melted from the intense blast of energy. Tiredly and slowly he stumbled towards the freshly made exit.

"Damn Tomboy… gotta be her food that's doin' this ta me. Never feel this weak unless I've been forced to eat her bad cookin'…" he grumbled irritatedly as he got to the hole and covered his hands with his shirt. Trying to avoid burns if at all possible from the melted slag. Slowly, Ranma lifted himself up and over the ledge of the hole and out into a vast nothingness.

Falling onto the ground with a groan, the martial artist looked around and groaned some more. "Great… just fuckin' great… Not only do I get out of some invisible prison… but now I gotta find my way out of this grey fog of nothingness…" Ranma grumbled out loud to no one in particular. Wondering idly where his captors were at the moment, knowing full well they should be around here somewhere. He was itching to get back at them for putting him into that cell and all.

Taking a few minutes to rest and get back his strength, Ranma continued to look around. Also he tried to sense his captors with his ki, however he could sense nothing. It was as if the place was devoid of any life energy. This threw the martial artist for a loop as he tried to figure out what was going on. "Oi… now this is just plain nuts! I should be able to sense someone!" Ranma complained to himself as he slowly got onto his feet.

"Well I guess I will just have to find them the old fashioned way…" he grumbled to himself as he started walking in a random direction. Not knowing where to go as everything looked pretty much the same.

---------

Elsewhere, Ranko had just left the area where all the other parts of Ranma's whole personality were located. She was completely unaware that Ranma was also out and about. The neo cat girl was also curious as to what that energy blast was earlier. It was why she was following the faint trail of energy back to its source, unlike Ranma who had no clue as to how to follow energy trails at all in his own mind.

"Now wherrrre did that enerrrgy blast come frrrom…?" Ranko purred out in an irritated tone of voice, not even noticing she was purring as she spoke. "Best to follow it back to wherrrre I sensed it come frrrrom…" she said to herself as she walked towards the energy source. Noticing that the outside mindscape was a lot to be desired for, all the while she got closer and closer to the source of the energy. However as she started to get closer it started to move away. Almost as if it had a mind of its own, and that wasn't a good thing in Ranko's book.

"Don't tell me I have a moving tarrrget…" the neo cat girl moaned softly and hoped it wasn't some kind of demonic spirit trying to get possession of Ranma's body. She knew the energy that had hit her and the panther back in the meadow of paradise had been powerful. However, she had no idea if it was pure or dark, even not a clue as to what fired it off in the first place. The only thing she was sure of was that it was STRONG and that was not something she looked forward to.

Shuddering softly, she changed her course and made her way towards the moving source of energy. It wasn't long before she caught up to the moving energy source, as she was faster now and stronger. Albeit she had no clue why at the moment, but she knew it was due to what she had been hit with earlier.

--------

Ranma was still walking along when he felt as if someone or something was following him. Then he also heard some soft foot steps as well, almost as if they or it were trying to sneak up on him. Having no clue as to what it was, he stopped and turned around, only to come face to face with a female version of himself. Although something seemed to be off about her. First of all he noticed that her eyes had cat like slits and made him back off slightly. Then he noticed the tail and the ears as well, thus making him back off even more. Finally he noticed that he was face to face with a female version of himself and started to panic.

"Aaaaahhh!" was the only thing that came out of his mouth as he tried to get away from her. His past experience with his female forms not having been pleasant at all, having had to deal with his dark half, then the splitting incense. Also there was the time he actually thought he was a girl -shudder- and he never actually got over that.

"Get away!!!" he screamed at the neo cat girl, being afraid for many many reasons. First and foremost that she was there, secondly that she looked like a cat and finally she was just there.

-------

Blinking a bit, Ranko got closer as the person or thing slowed to a stop, and was a bit taken aback by the fact that when the figure turned around that it was Ranma himself. She had not expected to see him at all in here, just expected to help him out without his knowledge. However… she knew this was a good opportunity to try and talk to him and see if he would work with her.

"Don't scrrream like that!" Ranko said a bit too loudly with a purr, being surprised herself and getting even more irritated. She also noticed that Ranma was trying to get away from her. That didn't make any sense, oh sure there were times that other parts of him had gotten out and all, but that shouldn't have scared him like this. Ranko was just very confused by this. Therefore, calming herself down, she didn't make any sudden movements in hopes to calm him down as well.

"What are you doing here? Better question how did you get here?" she queried Ranma in hopes of some kind of response but not expecting any at the moment. However, so her surprise Ranma stopped trying to get away and spoke.

"I dunno… 'Kane hit me with that damned mallet of hers again… Next thing I know I wake up here, where ever here is…" he trailed off while keeping a distance from Ranko. "So where is here anyhow? An' how did you get here too? I dun remember bein' split in two again…" he questioned her irritably with a bit of anger in his voice about the possibility of being split into two again.

"Hey don't get angrrry at me Brrro!" Ranko said a bit hotly, knowing full well he had no right to be angry at her at all. She was not in the mood to deal with his temper at the moment. "For yourrr inforrrmation we are inside of yourrr mind. I am an aspect of yourself. So sit back and shut up!" Ranko spat out at Ranma before trying to calm herself down.

"There isn't anyway that you're apart of me! I am a GUY!!!" he screamed at the cat girl while shivering from the way she purred out certain words. She was really unnerving him now, and didn't want a thing to do with her.

"You arrren't all guy as you put it. You arrre also part girrrl and you damned well know it!!!" the cat girl stated vehemently, and trying hard to get it through Ranma's thick skull that he wasn't all guy as he claimed to be.

"Whadda ya know anyhow? You're jus' a figment of my imag… imag…of my mind!" Ranma stated proudly while backing away some more from Ranko, seeing as she had somehow gotten closer during their little exchange. He was starting to get really really nervous as she wasn't giving him any room to back up either. For every step backwards he took, another step forward she would take. It went on like this for a few minutes until Ranko decided to put an end to it.

"Stop moving arrround so much! I am not a figment of yourrr imagination! I am you just female!" she spat out and growled while trying to get closer to Ranma. Knowing full well he was denying this and would take a lot of provoking to accept it. "What is yourrr prrroblem? I'm not gonna bite!" she stated irritably, "I'm only herrre to help you, you need it!" she said sternly.

"I dun need any help from some GIRL! I can take care of my own problems! An' stay away from me!" he yelled at Ranko trying to get away from her some more. Not wanting the cat girl to get any closer to him than was necessary. Ranma hadn't answered the previous question about what his problem was because of the girl wanting to help him. Therefore the other question went in one ear and right out the other for the moment.

"Oh bullshit Rrranma! You need all the help you can get, and just because I'm a girrrl has nothing to do with it!" she stated vehemently, still trying to figure out why he was moving around so much. "I said to stand still dammit!" she almost screamed at him.

"Nuh uh… no way I am letting some c-c-c-cat get close to me!" he said while shuddering at the word he had to speak.

"C-c-c-cat!? What c-c-c-cat!?" Ranko asked nervously, looking around for any cats and especially the panther from before. Knowing those little demons could come out at you from any place.

"You're…You're the C-C-C-CAT!!!" the martial artist exclaimed at the top of his lungs while turning tail and running away from Ranko as fast as he could. Not wanting to be anywhere near the cat girl now. He really really really didn't want to be there now, because he thought Ranko was feigning innocence about not being the cat.

Ranko on the other hand was looking at her own self and trying to figure out how she was a cat. It was then she noticed the tail on her backside and the cat ears on the top of her head. Taking on a few seconds to properly process all the visual stimuli, Ranko screamed so loudly that Ranma took one look back at Ranko and then ran for the hills. However noticing there were no hills he just ran as far away as he could.

The neo cat girl continued to scream and stare at her tail, almost fainting in the process. However she was unable to faint because she knew she was in Ranma's own mind made her continue to scream and run around in circles. The girl was trying to out run her own tail, that and trying to get rid of the cat body parts at the same time. "AAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!! GET IT OFF! GET IT OFFA ME!!!" she screamed loudly as she tried to get the cat body parts off of herself. Twenty minutes later and a lot of fruitless running around, along with trying to uselessly get rid of the ears and tail, Ranko finally calmed down. [2]

After calming down, Ranko sat down to take a breather before going after Ranma. Finally after getting her breath back the girl went in the direction Ranma ran in. He had gotten pretty far, about a good twenty miles distance was between them. During the time she had sat down, and then started to go after Ranma, Ranko had started to accept what had happened to herself. She didn't like it one bit, oh she loathed and hated it, that and it still scared the crap out of her.

"Dammit… I ain't no c-c-c-cat!" she repeated to herself over and over again while going towards Ranma's present location. Trying to reassure herself that she was not a cat and that she actually was still human or mostly human. 'Damn Ranma's mind… dammit all to hell and back. No damn Genma that fat fucking bastard!' Ranko mentally cursed the fat bastard that had forced upon them the neko-ken.

Finally having caught up to Ranma, while still chanting to herself that she wasn't a cat, she then pounced Ranma to force him into accepting her. This didn't go well as Ranma started to scream. "AAAAHHHHHHH GET OFFA ME!!! GET THE FUCK OFFA ME!!!" he continuously screamed while running away from Ranko who was currently latched onto Ranma.

"Settle down Ranma! I said settle the fuck down!" Ranko cursed at Ranma trying to get him to just stop and settle down, which was the wrong thing to do. Upon hearing her voice he just sped up and continued to try and get away. No matter how hard he ran, and no matter how hard he tried he couldn't get away. He couldn't even let the neko-ken take over and it was his only viable way of escape now. Finally he did the only thing he could do, Ranma passed out as his eyes rolled into the back of his head and he fell face first into the ground.

"Well… that went better than I thought it would…" the cat girl mused to herself. At least he didn't try to fight her. That would have been bad, and maybe even have caused some brain damage. She didn't know if it would or would not but didn't want to risk it; therefore she was relieved that this part was over.

"Sorry bro… but you gotta stay here now it's my turn, don't worry things will be fine…" Ranko said while a sly and slightly evil grin spread across her face. The girl knew it was her turn at bat, and she was going for a home run.

**Waking World**

Dinner was almost ready, and Ranma had yet to awaken, Kasumi had tried to wake him up with dousing the martial artist with some hot water. However that had not worked, all it did was change Ranma back to male form. During this Akane had come in from 'practice' and saw Ranma was still out cold. This pissed Akane off even more as she wanted so bad to beat the perverted bastard into a bloody pulp, therefore she went and got a bucket of water then came back and splashed Ranma with it to wake him up, turning him back into a female.

However the person to wake up was definitely not Ranma, no it was Ranko and she was highly irritated to put it mildly. "What in the fuck did you do that for you fucking bitch!?!?" Ranko screamed at Akane without any reservation for decorum or even politeness. She was really ready to take it to the un-cute little bitch for what she had done earlier, and now Akane had just added insult to injury on top of that.

To be continued…

A/N: Finally an update, if you complain I will shoot you for idiocy!! *EFG*
Anyhow, cliff hangers suck I know, but I think this is a good place as any to stop. I know you are really looking forward to what happens next… but we will wait until later for that.

[1] Ok I have read various fanfics; also no one really knows what Nabiki's sexual orientation is in the anime or manga. Therefore I am making Nabiki in love with Ranma himself, however it is when he is in girl form that she likes him the most. Basically my Nabiki is a lesbian; therefore I hope you all will enjoy this fic as I continue it.

[2] Don't tell me you didn't see that one coming.
