To be fair to Ryouga he didn't intend to abandon Ranma entirely, he just didn't want to be at ground zero when whatever was going to go wrong (something always went wrong a gloomy part of his mind commented) went wrong. Plus he was slightly wary that the part of the inscription promising a cure for Jusenkyo curses appeared to be in Ranma's handwriting. Even Ryouga would call that suspicious.
No, Ryouga's plan was get clear, wait an hour or so (or until any explosions had finished, Ranma and explosions being a common combination) then return and pick up the pieces. Possibly with some gloating about how Ranma's plan had backfired. Behind him there was an explosion of pink and purple flames. Right on schedule the pessimistic part of his mind informed him.
He risked a quick glance over his shoulder and his eyes widened as he saw a tendril of dark purple energy streak towards him. Ryouga forced himself to run faster, but he instinctively knew he wasn't going to be able to outrun this strike. The dark energy was almost upon him.
"Damn you Ranma this is all your fault," he screamed as it ripped through him.
The sun was a lot lower in the sky when Ryouga woke up, he'd been out for a good couple of hours at least. Ryouga pushed himself up from the crater and promptly fell back on his ass. He blinked a couple of times, whatever had happened had blown his sense of balance and left him feeling very weak.
"Ranma, when I get my hands on you I'll..."
Ryouga's voice trailed off. Either he had the world's worst case of laryngitis or..., oh no. The little disaster calculator in Ryouga's head started working through the equation. Ranma+Magic+Sudden change of balance+Sudden muscle weakness+suspiciously squeaky voice=One inevitable conclusion.
Ryouga looked down at his body. To no great surprise his eyes informed the poor overtaxed bit of grey matter that passed as Ryouga's brain he was using the wrong set of pronouns. She was a girl.
Ryouga's brain decided that that was quite enough work for one day and she passed out again.
