[Episode 134076] [Episode 134076]Especially the part were Ranma said that he hated doing this, but that he did for Akane. Ranma was spanking her because she meant so much to him despite her willfulness.
When Ranma finally judged that Akane had had enough Akane turned around in his lap and with tears in her eyes flung herself at him burying her face into his chest. Ranma hugged his crying slave-girl as she thanked him for punishing her.
It was a very powerful image to Kodachi. The word love had never been spoken but she had never seen such a striking and rousing demonstration of it.
Kneeling there exposed and alone Kodachi wished that she too could be part of such a bond. She was just somewhat unsure about on which end of she wanted to be part of it.
When Ranma picked up Akane in his arms to go inside Kodachi stood up and followed. Her bondage harness was mostly keeping her arms tied to her back and presented her naked body in and alluring package, it did not keep her from moving her legs.
Inside Ranma and Akane were greeted by Nabiki and her friend. Minami, as the friend turned out to be named was going around with a pencil and notepad and writing down answers to questions. Nabiki was there with her camera. They appeared to be preparing some kind of publication about Ranma and Akane's new relationship. Kodachi would have to remember to procure a copy.
While the two concentrated on Ranma and Akane, Kodachi was also interviewed on her impressions. She told Minami what she thought about what she had witnessed and posed for a picture for Nabiki.
Nabiki also had Akane hike up her skirt again so that she could take a picture of her sisters glowing red behind. Ranma was not amused by that and he followed Nabiki to make sure that she did not put any inappropriate pictures of his property in her publication.
Minami took Akane over to the side to take down notes. And suddenly Kodachi stood alone in the Tendou living-room.
She must have looked somewhat lost as a concerned sounding voice suddenly addressed her from behind.
"Oh dear, have the others left you all alone?" came the question.
Kodachi recognized Ranma's mother from the unfortunate incident when she had been unable to prevent a rabid panda and pair of engagement-ring-stealing hussies from destroying the Saotome home.
"Hello there, Mrs Saotome," she answered turning around and bowing slightly. "I was just leaving anyway."
Kodachi wondered if she should ask Mrs. Saotome for help; if not with untying her bonds, then at least with calling the Kunou-manor to have a servant pick her up with a change of clothes.
"Why don't I walk you home," Ranma's mother suggested. "A girl in your condition could get in trouble walking the streets unescorted."
Kodachi was about to explain that she certainly was not about to walk home bound and naked, when Mrs. Saotome without waiting for her reply dropped a rain-coat over Kodachi's shoulders.
"There, this should keep you from attracting unwanted attention," she said as she buttoned up the coat over Kodachi's still tied-up, but otherwise nude body.
Before she knew what was happening Kodachi found herself outside the Tendou home with Ranma's mother.
Well, she was covered up decently enough. If it became necessary she could still easily free herself. And right now she could really use some time for clearing her head and thinking about what she had just seen. So why not walk home?
"I must apologize for my son," Mrs. Saotome said as they began walking. "It really wasn't very nice of him to tie you up like that and then completely ignore you."
"I really don't mind," Kodachi answered, "I really shouldn't have barged in uninvited and I am sure that Ranma has his hands full with his new slave at the moment."
She also wasn't quite sure if she would have been ready for it if Ranma had decided not to ignore her. The ropes chafed between her legs as she thought about the possibilities.
"Yes, his slave, tell me Kodachi what do you think of Ranma and Akane's new relationship," Ranma's mother wanted to know.
"Well, Mrs. Saotome...." Kodachi began.
"Call me Nodoka, dear. You don't have to be so formal," the woman offered.
"Well, Nodoka, from what I have seen they certainly have a very strong bond. Not many relationships are founded on such high degrees of trust, devotion, commitment, acceptance and love. They are lucky to have found something this precious," Kodachi gave her an answer similar to what she had said to Minami earlier.
"You sound like you admire them," Nodoka observed.
"It is hard not to feel a bit envy after seeing such a display," Kodachi admitted freely.
"Could you see yourself becoming part of such a relationship?" Nodoka asked.
She thought for a moment. In the past she had with some of her special friends on the gymnastics team played games that were superficially not too dissimilar to what Ranma had done to Akane. But what Ranma and Akane had went to a much deeper and she doubted that any of the girls could give her what Akane had given Ranma. And deep down she also had to wonder if she would be strong enough to take it, if she found somebody willing to give.
The knotted rope shifting between her legs with every step forcefully reminded her of another option.
There was also the possibility of going at it from the other side, Akane's side. That would require a different sort of strength. Could she be strong enough to serve? She would just have to let herself fall. But it would require somebody she could trust enough to catch her.
"It would take a lot of responsibility and trust. It would require somebody very special. As I said, Ranma and Akane are lucky to have found each other. And now the best partners for such a relationship are already taken." Kodachi finally said.
"My son and his Akane have already broken several rules of what would be expected of a normal relationship. At the moment they are still considering themselves an exclusive couple, but in time they might see that monogamy too is not a necessity," Nodoka speculated. "Surely you would agree that my son is manly enough to handle several girls at once?"
Kodachi nodded, her thoughts racing. At the moment Ranma and Akane were a couple and in time she might try to make advances to join into their relationship. That was an idea.
Kodachi did not have any delusions about her chances though. There were several girls who were more likely to be accepted by Ranma and Akane then herself. She would have to do something to prove herself and make herself a better choice. The chef, the foreigner and the pig-tailed girl certainly were closer to them than she was.
A thought occurred to her. They were still only a couple! that meant that the pig-tailed girl was not part of their relationship. Funny, Kodachi had always thought that she and Akane were so close and that she adored and imitated Ranma so much, that the three would end up in a relationship together.
The red-head must feel very vulnerable and lonely right now about being abandoned like this. She would need somebody to take care of her. Kodachi understood from what she had seen passing between the girl and Akane that there was no fundamental reason why such a caretaker might not be female. Once she had learned to trust the pig-tailed girl might very well be willing to imitated Ranma and Akane's relationship like she did everything else about Ranma.
Of course Kodachi would be the mistress and the pig-tailed girl would be the slave. No matter how much the red-head would want to imitated Ranma, Kodachi would be the dominant partner in the relationship.
If someone were to approach the pig-tailed girl before Ranma and Akane realized that they wanted her, that someone would become a package deal with the red-head. A proven mistress and an already trained slave-girl surely would make for a good package.
Mistress and master would together dominate the slave-girls. And perhaps the master could also dominate the mistress a bit....
As they walked along Kodachi considered the various options and variations of such a plan. Maybe she wouldn't have to do it exactly like that, but it certainly was a start. She would have to get an issue of the information booklet that Nabiki had been preparing before she could commit to a definite course of action.
"Thank you, you have given me much to think about, Nodoka." Kodachi finally said.
"My pleasure," Nodoka replied. "And remember, Kodachi, if you ever have any problems or question about these things you can always come to me and talk."
