She bought herself a soda, sat on a bench and lifted her sugary orize up to her lips, when...
"Let us be off, 'Rachel'," an inperious dreadlocked student from St. Herbereke covered in emerald scales ordered her walking mate. Ukyo glanced over at the other person and suddenly choked on her drink.
"Right now, Koda-chan?" her equally-scaly school-mate whined. That said snake-skinned girl was a short, extremely well endowed redhead in dreadlocks wasn't the surprise, but the fact that said snake-girl bore a ghost-image of a sapphire-skinned, black-dreaded boy was. There was only one person who bore such a trace to one such as herself.
"Ranma," she whispered to herself, "what happened to you, honey?" She checked herself quickly, then followed the pair.
Ukyo had kept enough distance from the pair as to not attract attention, yet close enough to easily hear what was spoken between them.
"So tell me, 'Rachel-san'," The taller of the two asked, stressing the false name slightly, "what were you doing before you found youself like this?"
The transformed Ranma sighed. "Kodachi," the redhead ground out, "Why are you..."
Ukyo stumbled to a stop, shocked to the core. Kodachi is the other person?, she boggled. What in the name of the Great Trickster is going on? She continued following them and listened.
Kodachi slapped a scaly hand to her forhead. "Truly," she sighed. "So truly does Tendo Akane name you, 'Rachel'."
The morphotranssexual reptiloid bristled slightly, then relaxed with a chuckle. "You're right, Koda-chan. I am being a baka."
The transformed Kuno scion shared the mirth. "Quite," she agreed, then sobered. "But back to my previous question..."
Ranma rubbed the back of her neck. "Dunno," she finally answered. "I was in a salon, getting a trim, then I was out on a street, then..."
The pair blushed a deep brownish color for a few moments, as they walked in silence. Then Kodachi cleared her throat. "Well I remember that, 'Rachel-chan'," she muttered, then waved to the rooftops. "If we're going to return to my domicile, then, we must hie away while the sun is still out." Suiting actions to words, the pair lept to the shingles with a grace they had never shown before.
Ukyo stoood gaping, as the pair escaped. What do I do now? she asked herself.
