Ranma 1/2 rough draft
Happi Days #5: Fourth Week, Sunday
all char are (c) Takahashi Rumiko, with the exception
of Tetsuo, the crew of the smuggler ship 'ChaCha Maru'
and extraneous other characters thrown in for one scene
or less.
------------------------
what's happened so far: go back and read the other
stories, gee, it's only chapter five of six! yeesh.
-------------------------
"Raaaaaannnmmmaaaaa!"
Ranma turned to see Ryouga running towards him. Ranma
briefly wondered how Ryouga had found him when he'd
just gotten off the bus into Nerima a few minutes ago.
Ranma shrugged and cracked his knuckles. Why ask why?
It looked like he'd be getting in a fight almost as soon
as his feet hit the ground. Well, if Ryouga was gonna
take THAT approach, he wouldn't share the little item
he'd found in China.
Ryouga ran past Ranma, then ducked right, disappearing
into an alley. Ranma blinked twice, as his expression
went blank. "Huh?"
"Over here!" Ryouga called from around the corner.
Ranma thought briefly this might be a trap, but why
did Ryouga sound panicked?
"Hurry, they'll be here any moment!"
That was definitely panic in Ryouga's voice. Did
Akane finally figure out who P-chan was?
"You gotta hide me, Ranma!"
Ranma got his first good look at Ryouga as he
entered the alley. Torn clothing, tousled hair,
lipstick stains, it must have been one heck of a fight.
Ranma stopped and rewound the last observation.
"Lipstick stains?!" Ranma counted four such marks on
Ryouga. "Ryouga, has Akari been..."
"Shut up!" Ryouga looked around nervously. "You don't
have any clue at all, do you?"
"Uhm, well, if that isn't it, what's going on?"
Ryouga clenched a fist and made a face. "You don't
know the horrors I've been through the past week. I
can't even get lost without some girl coming around to
help me out. I've got women chasing me around trying to
get me to eat the 'extra lunch they just happened to
bring along.' It's been HELL, I tell you!"
That last was howled. As the echoes died away, Ryouga
opened his eyes and realized exactly what he had just
done. "Oh my."
Ranma jumped up and swung himself onto a fire escape
as a mob of fuku-clad women came running around the
corner.
"RYOUGA-SAMA!" The lead girl was waving a bokken over
her head. "I would date with you!"
"Ryouga-darling! Ryouga-honey! Ri-chan! Charlotte!
Ryouga my sweet! Ryouga, make me yours!" The crowd was
charging along only slightly behind the bokken wielder.
"Eeep!" Ryouga turned and ran, trying his level best
to attain Warp Factor Six without benefit of a starship.
Ranma had to admit he was doing a fair job of it too.
Maybe this was some kind of speed training that Ryouga
had thought up. Nah, that was real panic that the lost
boy was displaying.
Thoroughly puzzled, Ranma swung down off the fire
escape and turned the corner. Another one of the fuku
wearing girls was standing there, looking at him as if
he were a lunch buffet.
"Urk." Ranma felt a brief moment of panic. What had
those girls done to Ryouga that had caused him such
distress? Then something about the face clicked. "Akane?"
"Ranma," Akane said with a cute smile, so happy to see
him that she giggled and did a quick twirl. "Do you like
the new school uniform? Isn't it pretty?"
"Oh, I'm sorry, I thought you were Akane Tendo. My
mistake." Her hair was much longer, it couldn't be
Akane, could it?
"Silly," Akane giggled again, holding her hand in
front of her mouth. She looked at Ranma and put her
hands behind her back, swinging one leg back and forth.
"I AM Akane Tendo."
"Huh?!" Ranma's mind froze up. Was it a possession?
Another vengeful spirit doll or something?
Akane briefly looked sad and demure. "Ranma, when you
left, I was so sad, so forlorn, so lonely without you."
"Huh?" Ranma automatically started forward when he
saw tears (TEARS?!) making tracks down Akane's cheeks.
"Akane, do you feel OK?"
As soon as Ranma moved within range, Akane glomped
him. Again Ranma's mind locked up, maybe it was on
Windows 95, but Akane acting like this seemed to freeze
up his operating system.
"Ranma, don't ever do that again." Akane seemed to
press even tighter against Ranma. "Don't ever leave me
again, Ranma."
"A-kan-e. Can't...breathe...."
"Oh my darling, how I've counted the hours, no,
the minutes since we've been parted."
"P-le-as-e. Need. Air."
"Ranma, if you must leave ever again, take me with
you, I promise not to be a burden! I beg you!"
Ranma, now turning blue, only managed to make a
choking noise. Some distant part of his mind noted
that the hydraulic pressure on her glomp was approaching
the level of a trash compactor.
"I know I'm more fragile than you, but you must take
me with you!" Akane tightened a little more. "I...I can
carry my own weight!"
"urk." Ranma thought he felt his ribs groaning.
Everything was fading to black. If he could just
get some air. That same distant part of his mind
had upgraded the pressure level to car crusher. His
shock over what Akane was saying was also causing
him to remain off balance.
"No, Ranma, I know what you're thinking." Akane
looked up at him and noticed his coloration was off.
"Oh no! Ranma, you've gotten sick! I'll bet you haven't
eaten properly since you left!"
"Don't worry, Akane," came a voice as another fuku
clad girl walked out of the alley.
"Ukyou," Akane smiled brightly. "Together..."
Ukyou nodded. "Together we can get him to my place
and nurse him back to health."
Akane's smile turned a little predatory. Funny how
it matched the grin that Ukyou was wearing. "Between
the two of us, we can make sure we don't have to share
him with the rest of the girls."
If Ranma had been conscious he would have been in
a similar state of panic to Ryouga. As it was, he was
quickly carried through the streets without much fuss
at all.

---End Commercial Break--------------------
Tetsuo had to admit that Hide was one of the
most useful spells he knew. Not that he knew that many,
or that he was powerful enough to cast some of the ones
he'd heard about that sounded REALLY neat.
He also had to admit that when magical talent
had been passed out, he was somewhere between Pathetic
and Vaguely Competent. Knowing that, he concentrated
on the spells he was able to manage, and he practiced
the Hide spell quite a lot.
In theory, it was quite simple. Form a pattern
of Spirit and Air, weave it with one's own chi, and
feed it a trickle of your own strength. It didn't make
one invisible, but unless the caster did something to
draw attention to himself, people and animals tended
to ignore the caster as if he were just part of the
background.
Useless for a warrior, who intended to disturb
the environment, and therefore cancelled it out just by
planning an attack. For a spy or someone trying to
survive, it was incredibly useful. Tetsuo Tsukiku,
recent transfer to Furinkan Senior High School, placed
himself emphatically in this last category.
All it would take would be one more obento
lunch prepared by someone with no talent or training
for it and he'd be done for. It proved that good
intentions were not, in and of themselves, sufficient
for some tasks. Cooking, bomb disposal, and heart
surgery were all, in Tetsuo's opinion, not
something you did without proper training.
The news had leaked out, Tetsuo suspected
Nabiki, that Tetsuo was living all by himself. That
he hadn't had a homecooked meal in months and was
trying to get by on his own.
There had also been the photos. Again this was
most likely Nabiki, though "Gos-chan" was another
possibility. Tetsuo was quite glad that the pictures of
Ryouga were outselling his own. He'd only seen a few
of these pictures, but the phrase "full noodle frontity"
seemed to cover the basics. Pictures from the guys'
showers, pictures of Ryouga in a furo, pictures of each
and every one of the remaining male students in the
school (plus Ryouga of course, though Miss Hinako seemed
to have forgotten that Ryouga wasn't a student.)
Seeing a set of cards being passed around by one
group of girls, Tetsuo edged a little closer until he
could figure out what it was. When he did, he was able
to go from suspicion to confirmed on who was the one
responsible for his home being staked out.
It was obviously Nabiki's work, Gos couldn't put
together anything nearly so professional looking. Nabs
had put together TRADING CARDS. Tetsuo retreated,
thanking all the kami that he'd found a lorebook on
ninja spirit magic and had been able to learn the Hide
spell. Height, weight, probable financial income,
hobbies, and other stats had been speculated on or
compiled for quite a few males in the area.
Tetsuo thought that when Hitoshi finally made a move
on Nabiki, that should cut down on Nabs' free time. He
wouldn't be at all unhappy to see Nabs spend less time
in the yakuza-style businesses.
Looking back at the girls trading cards, Tetsuo
shuddered. This was Bad, and Tetsuo figured he'd better
warn the others. Now if he could just find Ryouga.
Still, he'd like to get a copy himself, just to see
how he rated.
-----------------------
Thousands of miles away, Herb of the Musk
Dynasty read a report given him by one of his spies,
crumpled it in his fist, and incinerated it with a
chi bolt.
"Akunin."
A shadow moved. "Not here, milord. He, ahem, has
a case of the craps."
Herb sighed deeply, turned his eyes to the
heavens and silently asked "Why me?"
After a moment of this he turned his attention
to the one still standing in the shadows. "Karashi,
isn't it?"(1)
"Yes, milord."
"Would you get your butt out here where I can
see you, you're not some damn ninja you know."
Karashi shuffled forward slightly, revealing a
young man with a wiry build wearing outlander clothing.
"I take it that everyone else..."
"Yes, milord."
"First this bit with Happosai," Herb looked
again to the heavens. "He was supposed to be the
'Instrument Of Our Divine Vengeance', wasn't he?"
"Yes, milord," Karashi said, wondering if that
was meant to be a rhetorical question or not.
Herb glared. "Then WHY does this report indicate
that he has instead become our 'Instrument Of Annoyance'
and failed to do much of anything to Saotome? The only
one he actually GOT in this plan that was on my list was
the DUCK-BOY!"
"Uhm." Karashi was pretty sure that this one WAS
a rhetorical question, but nodded to indicate he was
paying attention.
"On top of that we have our storage unit
collapse and our dungeon got flooded with that 'Bishojo
Bride' water. It wasn't a problem then, no, because it
was the concentrate. Then we have a stroke of brilliance
from former-Commander Mabushi, to get all the fluid out
of there by using the new pumps. Which would have been
fine if the stuff wasn't almost a syrup in consistancy.
So this GENIUS decides to flood the place so that the
water is thin enough to pump through the filters.
"How lovely that he then sent two squads of
HIS OWN SOLDIERS into that area to position the hoses!"
"Oh my," managed Karashi.
"So, we've got THAT problem to deal with, the
damn virus going around, and the only one I've got to
send on a vital mission is YOU!"
"A vital mission? Me, sir? Thankyouthankyou."
Herb hit his head against the wall a couple of
times. It didn't help. The only agent he had to assist
him at the moment was his idiot cousin, the one who was
currently wearing an "Akira" T-shirt and ragged jeans.
Maybe, realized Herb, maybe he would just have
to put everything on hold. He wasn't sure Karashi could
find the Chinese coast if you gave him a map and a
compass. Sighing again, he gave Karashi his instructions
and waited for the idiot to leave.
If nothing else, maybe it was time to further
prune the family tree.
-----------------------------
Ranma awoke, realizing three very important
things:
a) each arm was handcuffed to an object.
b) each object was a bed post.
c) the bed he was in was NOT his futon.
This led, of course, to conclusion d.
d) he was in Big Trouble.
From the position of the sun, he'd guess that he
had been unconcious less than an hour. The door opened
and he saw Akane enter. This was not Akane's room, so
the immediate hope was that he was about to be
rescued. Then he saw that she was bringing in a tray
of food.
Ranma watched in horror as Akane brought the food
closer.
"I'm so glad you're awake, Ranma." Akane smiled. "I
made this meal, JUST FOR YOU."
She sat down, preparing to feed him by hand. Ranma
prayed for a meteor strike, SOMETHING that would stop
this nightmare.
Akane smiled at Ranma. It was her turn to feed him,
then Ukyou would get her chance. Then Shampoo would be
called over. All three agreed that they would MAKE
Ranma choose. All three also agreed not to invite that
Harenchi woman or Kodachi over.
Ranma would make his choice, and then she and Ranma
would marry. Akane smiled even more, her smile promising
many things to Ranma.
Ranma just hoped at the moment that getting loose was
one of them.
----------------------
Karashi="mustard" in this case, an orig char relative of
Herb. Heart of gold, strong as a dragon, not too smart.

FINALLY!
Ranma 1/2 final draft
Happi Days #6: Fourth Week, Monday
all char are (c) Takahashi Rumiko, with the exception
of Tetsuo, the crew of the smuggler ship 'ChaCha Maru'
and extraneous other characters thrown in for one scene
or less.
-----------------------------
Hiroko smiled and fixed an extra box lunch.
This time she'd be able to give it to Ryouga-kun, she
knew that the lost boy needed plenty of food to keep
his energy up.
She'd almost followed the recipe this time,
though it had seemed a little bland, so adding octopus
marinaded in a pepper sauce (to keep it from spoiling)
seemed a good touch.
"Ryouga-sama," Hiroko giggled. Cooking was so
much fun since the Becoming and she'd accepted the
changes. Besides, Nabiki's picture of Ryouga coming
out of the furo...
Hiroko smiled as she added another piece of
octopus.
-----------------
Ranma slipped out of the silk cords that had
been used to tie him in place, sneaking slowly towards
the window like a ghost, careful not to awaken his
guard.
Akane murmurred something in her sleep from her
futon in front of the door.
When Ranma's heartrate approached normal again,
he slowly opened the window. He was expecting the hand
dropping down on his shoulder, so sure he'd be found
out that when nothing of the sort occurred he was unsure
of himself briefly.
Slipping away into the night, Ranma felt that
checking up on Ryouga's story was his first priority.
If it checked out, maybe he should go back to China.
-----------------
Happosai slipped out of his lair, a hidden
panel in the roof of the Tendou Training Hall where
he'd hidden the mass of his silky darlings.
The whisper of air around the incoming dagger
was sufficient for Happosai to dodge. An overcast night
with no lights on in the yard was perfect for sneakery,
but apparently it benefited others than Happosai.
"Who's there," Happosai growled. A glimpse of
motion, too quick from concealing shadow to shadow. He
could only be sure of one thing. It was a woman who
was wearing black pants and a red Chinese shirt. The
conclusion was obvious.
"So, Ranma, finally you find the courage to
face me." He hefted the super soaker in his hands. "You
have already doomed your friends and family. YOU are
personally responsible for the tragedy afflicting them
because you didn't face me when you should have."
Silence was the only answer Happosai received.
"Ranma, you can't fool me. Come and face me, you
coward, or I may have to do something really nasty."
More silence. Happosai began to creep forward
as silently as he could. He thought that his opponent
should be right over there.
"Really, Ranma, I expected more of you. If you
don't face me, do you know what I'm going to do? I've
got three tins of something called 'Golden Passion Dust'
ready to drop in the water supply. All I have to do is
turn one extra little valve, and the drug mixes with
the Nerima water supply. Believe me, this will make my
revenge with the Jusenkyo water seem gentle and
refined by comparison.
"My ONLY problem will be in deciding who to
ravage first." Happosai got to the shadow and realized
that Ranma wasn't there. Looking around, he reached the
peak of the roof and tried to figure out where his
opponent was. "Will I deflower sweet Akane first? Maybe
that best friend of yours, the okinomiyaki chef? I can
have Nabiki and charge her for the pleasure, hah! Maybe
even some of your formerly male friends, I glomped one
yesterday and she felt DELICIOUS."
A movement alerted Happosai, the figure was
visible as movement leaping over him. "Game, set, and
match, Ranma!" Happosai triggered the flood of his last
supply of the cursed Jusenkyo spring water towards the
figure.
The figure dodged, rolled, and stood as a porch
light came on, a bo staff clearly visible in her hands.
"K-Kasumi?!?" Happosai's eyes bugged out, yes,
even more than normal. He stared unmoving as Kasumi
took a martial arts stance that clearly read "challenge"
to his trained eyes.
Gravity, of course, was not suspended. <SPLASH!>
------------------
"Where is that baka?"
"It's ok, Akane. The poor boy just doesn't
realize we've got his best interests at heart."
"Ukyou, if he chooses YOU, I-I-I'll be happy
for you."
"Sugar, you'd be completely miserable and you
know it. Same here. And if he chooses Shampoo we'll
both me miserable. If he chooses Kodachi..."
"Killing him would be the only merciful thing
to do." Akane looked over at Ukyou, strange how the
two of them seemed to have deepened their friendship
since being affected by the water. "Still, if we find
him..."
"We'd better find him," Ukyou drew her battle
spatula, "before those other girls do or there might
not be anything left of him."
"I was just thinking about what happens if he
were to face Happosai before he knows about the water."
--------------------
Ranma puzzled about something. Why did Master
Po give him this kettle? It was a 1/3 replica of the
"Unlocking Kettle" of the Musk Dynasty, and would
supposedly only function one hundred times before the
magic ran out, but it was still extremely valuable.
He wondered if Master Po had used some ancient
Chinese magic and had determined that it would be needed
in some future battle with Herb and the Musk Dynasty.
--------------------
Hundreds of miles away, Master Po sneezed, then
went back to channel surfing. Odd that even with a
satellite dish that got hundreds of channels, he usually
ended up watching CNN Japan.
--------------------
Eighth week, Sunday
"Heh, you girls look like you'd like to party!"
The tattooed man motioned his fellows forward, six guys
from outside Nerima looking for a little "fun."
The women approached by these men were less
than enthusiastic about them or their approach.
Hiroko and Daisuki clung to each other and wailing in
terror.
Tetsuo, the only guy on that side of the
impending fight, only had one offensive spell, and that
would take a lot out of him. Still, he built up the
power, as these women had stopped being nearly so pushy
and he owed them for that. Besides, this FELT right.
"HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!"
Tetsuo glanced over to one of the walls and
blanched. The thugs, on the other hand, reacted with
a few drools and wolf whistles.
Kasumi, dressed in a combination of a pantsuit
with hard leather armor, pointed from atop the wall at
the thugs. "Your perversions end here! Preying on
the weak and defenseless, you deserve NO MERCY!"
Koko-chan, dressed in a sailor fuku with
armored shoulderpads, crossed her arms and glared. "For
your crimes against women, you shall be PUNISHED!"
Nayami, still trying to balance on the wall,
didn't have a speech prepared. "SAME HERE!"
"Shampoo really tired of uppity men like you.
Men who do this thing go really bad place."
The leader of the thugs smiled, revealing a
few missing teeth. "And who are you little girlies
to teach MY men a lesson?" The other thugs smiled
and started discussing who got which girl first.
Tetsuo seriously considered switching to his
Hide spell.
"WE are the Nerima Police Auxilary, Amazon
Division One! And You ARE UNDER ARREST!"
<VRRRRT> Kasumi was suddenly holding her
favorite battlestaff.
<CHING-CHING> Koko-chan's tetsubo appeared.
<SNIIIIICK> Nayami's warclaws slid out of her
sleeves.
Shampoo's bonbori appeared in her hands and she
once again regretted that she didn't have a dramatic
sound effect for her weapons.
These were, of course, typical low level thugs
who immediately failed a wisdom check upon seeing these
women produce weapons out of nowhere. Instead of doing
something halfway sensible like running or surrendering,
they attacked.
At one point during the battle, Tetsuo used his
single offensive spell when the leader attempted to go
after the cowering Momoko. The "Chi Bolt" knocked the
leader down long enough for Kasumi to slam the end of
her quarterstaff into said leader's manhood. Said leader
would be singing soprano for several weeks.
Unfortunately, Tetsuo Tsukiku was about as
powerful a wizard as he had feared, and collapsed from
the energy needed to cast that spell. The results were
quite predictable, save to say that he really wished he
had enough energy left that could cast that Hide spell.
Kasumi had to finish this up quickly, though,
she had a wedding to attend.
------------------------
"She makes such a beautiful bride," said Ukyou,
dabbing tears away from her eyes as she turned from the
two at the altar to Ranma.
"Yes, she does," agreed Akane, smirking slightly
before resting her head against Ranma's shoulder.
Cologne smirked. Her newest pupil had done her
so proud by tricking Happosai and the results had been
quite rewarding. Finding that "Love Potion" had been
equally wonderful.
Happosai pushed back her veil so that she
could gaze lovingly upon her husband.
"You may now kiss the bride," the minister,
who was clueless about the nature of the bride, said.
Mikado Sanzennin obliged, finally kissing his
1000th girl. Nobody had told him yet. They'd probably
wait until AFTER the Honeymoon.
--------------------
New Years Eve, Fifth Month:
"Dear Honored Mother, Father, family:
"As this is usually a time for reflections,
I'm writing this down. It has truly been a strange
year and I'm appending some additional files on the
events, particularly the events known as the 'Bishojo
Bride' events.
"Happosai is happily married to Mikado
Sanzennin, and the couple are expecting their first
child in another six months. Happosai got quite drunk
after Kasumi tricked him into splashing himself with
his own cursed springwater, with the result that the
mental contamination occurred very quickly.
"So many of the Nerima citizens have become
almost 'Stepford Wives' versions of themselves that
the traditional 'feminine arts' have become a major
business here. Note that strong feelings and beliefs
were unaffected by what is referred to as the Becoming
by many of the Cursed.
"Reaction to the situation in Nerima is mixed.
Many feel that Nerima itself is cursed and avoid it as
if it were a plague colony. Others come to gawk at the
women and overall change in the atmosphere. Still others
feel that the area has become an easy target for
violence and all sorts of mayhem.
"The official breakdown of the Cursed, as last
determined by one of the local news agencies, is that
there are 1,212 Cursed individuals in Nerima. Support
groups for people with curses have confirmed that the
actual number is slightly higher.
"Of these people, 64 have curses not related
to Jusenkyo. 1,101 are confirmed victims of Happosai's
little rampage. 47 have Jusenkyo curses who have come
here since the news broke about Happosai's little
escapade. Being around other people who share your
problem, or at least understand it, has drawn that
group.
"Of the 1,101 that were affected by Happosai,
there is a further breakdown. 187 of these individuals
were hit with the waters from the 'Spring Of Drowned
Amazon Warrior.' Martial arts supplies and dojos can
be found very easily in some parts of Nerima. There
are a further 374 Cursed who show NO attitudinal change,
and the working theory is that they were simply hit
with Nyannichuan or 'Spring Of Drowned Girl.' There
are another 14 who weren't human to begin with, as
apparently Happosai visited the zoo at one point.
These last have some qualities of their former animal
selves, but largely appear to be human women. These
are all currently learning how to be human. This leads
to 526 who WERE hit with the 'Bishojo Bride' water who
were human. Figure roughly half used to be of the male
persuasion.
"Furinkan High School was the worst affected.
The male/female ratio is now 1/80 with a few packs of
amazons and guys who have never mentally transformed.
In the case of these three springs, the amount of
mixing of the curses appears to be minimal.
"Due to the false perception that Nerima is
easy pickings for the violent, and that there are now
a large number of provisional amazons here, two more
changes of note. Nerima is now a sister-city (a very
appropriate term, don't you think) to the Amazon
Village, and there's several amazons in the Police
Department now. Also Furinkan has been kicking serious
butt in the high school athletics programs.
"Ranma Saotome returned almost exactly one
month after he left. He brought with him a device
similar to the 'Unlocking Kettle' of the Musk Dynasty.
He was able to use this until the magic ran out, and
one hundred of those with the 'Bishojo Bride' curse
now have normal lives and personalities until they are
splashed with cold water, then the other personality and
form become dominant. Most are coping with the change
with a certain Japanese stoicism.
"Medical studies are being conducted, with the
reports being released simultaneously in the American
'JAMA' and the British 'Lancet' on the short and long
term effects of the Curse.
"Most of the world goes on as it has for years,
without particularly noticing or caring what happens to
a small group of people in a suburb of Tokyo.
"Oh yes. There have been a swarm of marriages
here within the past few months. My immediate superior
Kasumi Tendo married one of the Cursed who can switch,
a Doctor Tofu Ono. Akane Tendo married Ranma Saotome,
though the betting was almost even that he would marry
a girl named Ukyou Kuonji. Nabiki Tendo married this
guy named Hitoshi Lawrence, a Japanese-American
photojournalist who came here to do the 'Girls Of
Nerima' book. Nabiki's also got a manga deal going
dealing with the adventures of her sister. As I'm in
Kasumi's squad, I'm hoping for at least cameo scenes.
"All for now. Hope all of you are doing well.
As for this job I've got with the local Police
Department's Amazon Auxilary, it's a decent wage and
I get to pummel evildoers, so it's a good job.
Respectfully,
Nayami/Ri Ku Straczynski, Junior Officer Nerima PD"

well this ends the Happi Days story arc. If you
got an occasional laugh out of it, then it has
had the desired effect.
