“Will, let me take care of them.” Ranma said following Will.
“Ranma, please, let me do this. Please don't interfere either.” Will said, cracking her knuckles. A habit she picked up from Ranma.
“Okay but if it gets out of hand I'm stepping in.” Ranma said with a sigh, “I don't want to see you hurt.”
“Thanks Ranma.” Will said as she smiled back at him, then walked up behind Uriah and his gang of Kurt and Frank. They didn't even notice her as they were too busy picking on Irma who also haven't noticed them.
“Boo-hoo.” Uriah sneered, “Little miss loud mouth can't do anything but mope about red. If you ask me everyone is better off without her.”
Will winced as she heard it, a small part of her wondering if it was the truth but looking at Irma's sad expression and refusal too look up at them steeled Will's resolve.
“Your pathetic, without new girl around your too chicked to stand up to us anymore.” Kurt laughed.
“Red probably just didn't want to be around a pathetic loser like you.” Frank sneered.
Will snarled and slapped Uriah on the back of his head hard. Will had a hard time not laughing as he spun around and stared at her in shock. “Only losers I see here are you three.” Will said, “Don't you dare let me ever catch you picking on my friends again.”
“W-Will?!” Irma gasped out in shock, her head snapping up to look at Will in surprise.
“Hey Irma.” Will said with a gentle smile, “You okay?”
“I…I am now, Will.” Irma said smiling.
“Lookey here guys, the little runaway came back.” Uriah sneered, “Probably couldn't get enough of me, huh?”
“Excuse me?” Will snapped stomping on Uriah's foot hard.
“You BITCH!” Uriah screamed in pain, hopping up and down on his good foot while holding the one Will stomped on. “GET HER!”
Will laughed as the two bigger boys attacked her, there moves so slow as they advanced and tried to hit her. Will easily weaved in and out of there attacks but noted to herself how hard it was. Ranma made this look so easy.
“Come on boys, I'm only one girl here.” Will giggled.
“Leave her alone!” Irma snapped starting to leap forward until Ranma restrained her.
“Don't Irma, Will knows what she's doing.” Ranma said.
“They'll hurt her!” Irma growled, “Let me go.”
Will spun around a punch thrown by Kurt and jumped in the air kicking Frank in the face hard sending him down to eat pavement. When she landed she crouched low and swept Kurt's feet out from under him knocking him down to join his buddy.
“Geeze, I would of went easier on you guys if I knew you were so…delicate.” Will laughed.
“Y-You freak!” Uriah gasped out in shock backing away from Will.
“Maybe I am but if you ever bother my friends again I'll show you what I'm really capable of. Got it?” Will asked stalking closer to Uriah before a wet stain grew in his pants and his eyes rolled up into his head before crumpling to the ground.
“Will!” Irma cried finally breaking free of Ranma and glomping Will.
“Hey Irma.” Will said, hugging her friend tightly.
“D-Did you mean it?” Irma cried. “Your still my f-friend? Even after what I said…”
“Irma.” Will sighed sadly deciding for once maybe a little bit of a white lie would be best. “I didn't run away because of you, I love you, your one of my best friends. I…I had a lot of things on my mind and my mom…we…we got into a huge fight…I had to just get away for awhile and sort things out. I'm so sorry that I hurt you, Irma.”
“Really?” Irma asked pulling away, a worried expression in her eyes.
“Really, I'd love to be friends if you would let me.” Will said sadly.
“Are you kidding?” Irma cried happily, crushing Will in a bone crushing hug, “I missed you so much, all of us did. We were so worried about you and I'm so happy that you're back.”
“Me too.” Will said, stroking her friend's hair.
“I was so worried when you ran away after handing Frost his blue but to him.” Irma said pulling back and smiling while wiping away her tears.
“I was just so scared what you guys were going to say…especially when I introduced you to my husband Ranma.” Will said indicating Ranma who smiled.
Will had to sigh when a car chose that moment to drive by through a puddle and splash only Ranma turning him into a girl.
“And my wife.” Will said with a giggle when she noticed Irma's eyes widen in shock.
“Wow…” Irma said, shaking her head and smirked, “Never knew my best friend was like that.”
“Like what?” Will asked, momentarily confused until she figured out what Irma meant and started making warding gestures. “It's not like that, really.”
