Kuno had probably attacked Ranma again to free his ‘Pigtailed Goddess’.
A faint cry of “Ranma Satome, Prepare to die!” made her amend that last thought to Ryoga attacking Ranma to free his beloved Ukyou.
‘He must have a cold. His voice sounds different.’
Dismissing the battle from conscious thought she once again focused on her current problem.
Lunch was already nearing the half way point and she had yet to think up an argument that would assure Ukyou joining forces with her and Shampoo. Having Ukyou along would insure the success of their little group.
Ukyou was Ranma’s childhood friend whom he had to marry or tarnish her honor. Ukyou was also a chef of the highest quality who made a dish that Ranma seemed to be becoming addicted to. If Ukyou was not involved in their plans she would become an obstacle.
That would cause… complications.
Between Ukyou, Shampoo, and herself, they pretty much held all the strings attached to Ranma’s heart and honor. Therefore joining forces was the only way to insure they all got what they wanted. How to explain that to a girl who wanted Ranma all to herself was the problem.
Ranma had more then enough energy to keep all three of them happy and sated, if his Martial arts prowess converted to Marital arts prowess and Rei was pretty certain it would, failure just wasn’t in his vocabulary. A number of other words weren’t as well, but that could be rectified later.
If Ranma was sexually active it would have been easy to demonstrate, however without a live demonstration she would be forcing Ukyou to buy a 'pig in a poke' to use Ukyou's own vernacular. She needed some way to convince Ukyou that Ranma was more then she could handle alone.
“So Sugar, what’d you want to talk about?”
****
Ranma dropped the Soul of Ice as the classroom began to come apart around him. He needed something to distract him and he needed it now!
Diving out one of the windows he began a desperate search.
Nothing. Not a single thing. No women being attacked by a pervert. No magical princes trying to abduct Kasumi. He’d even welcome a c-ca-ca..feline at this point.
A familiar cry of “Where on Earth am I now?” brought a smile to his face.
Turning to face Ryoga he couldn’t help but grin. A good fight was just what the doctor ordered.
Ryoga nodded to Ranma absently and turned back to his map. He knew Ucchan’s was around her somewhere.
Ranma stood there stunned. Ryoga hadn’t attacked him. What kind of world is it where you can’t count on your rival to yell out his catchphrase and try to pound you into paste?
Ranma growled.
How dare he! How dare Ryoga not attack him!
An angry growl found its way past his lips.
Ryoga wasn’t going to get away with it. He was going to pay!
Ryoga turned around as his danger sense began to flash red. Ranma was growling at him?
Even as angry as he was Ranma knew there were forms to be followed. You don’t get to be a high level martial artists without having at least a little respect for tradition.
With a cry of “Ranma Satome, Prepare to die!” Ranma attacked.
