"Come, I'll take you two home," Ranma offered them. "I don't think it's too safe for a little walk today."
"Yeah, okay..." Hiroshi murmured, still a little shaken. "T-thank you, Ranma..."
"I'll tell your Mom you'll be coming later," Akane shouted after them.
After Ranma and the other two have crossed the corner, she threw a final glance at the unmoving pair of bullies, who were still lying on the ground.
She gave the one final zap ("Ow!"), then she went back home.
Ranma brought Hiroshi and Sayuri back to Hiroshi's front door, where his mother was already waiting for them with worry. She thanked Ranma multiple times and asked him to come in for a while, but he politely declined and started his way back home.

Walking down another street in Nerima was Ukyo, the new Half-Cyndaquil. She was wearing a new top which she and Konatsu had put together in a hurry. It was kinda like the top of a bathing suit, but the back side was open, so the 'fire nozzles' on her back were free... in case she would erupt once more.
She was on her way to the Tendo Dojo to check on Ranchan and Akane, when suddenly, she felt something on her... butt.
She snarled. "Happosai, you pervert!" she shouted and turned around to pound the ancient lecher into the ground.
But there was no one behind her.
"Huh?" the chef wondered. "I could've sworn he was behind me..."
Just then, she felt it again, this time a grope aimed at her chest...
"What the...?" Her hands tried to grab for whoever was fondling her, but she only got a handful of empty air. But this time, she knew she had seen a small, dark shape that had scurried away.
She looked around. "All right, Happosai, come out! I know you're around here somewhere!"
A chuckle came out of nowhere. "Now, my dear Ukyo... what's wrong with you? Can't see me? No, I didn't think you would..."
"I warn you, stay away from me," she grumbled. Already, a few sparks came flying out of her back.
"But Ukyo-chan..." Happosai's voice continued. "Would you deny an old man getting what he desires?"
"If it's groping my butt and breasts, yeah, I'd say yes!"
She couldn't stop him as he once again felt her behind, vanishing shortly after.
"Those new powers are really neat," he cackled. "And no one will ever catch me..."
"Come out, you coward," Ukyo screamed.
Just when she yelled that, Ranma came around the corner. "Hey Ucchan," he shouted. "Is something wrong?"
Ukyo turned around. "Good to see you, Ranchan... Help me find Happosai, okay? He's hiding around here somewhere, the coward..."
"Okay, gotcha," Ranma nodded. He took a quick look at her new clothes. "Um, nice outfit..."
"Uh... thanks..."
"Ranma, my boy," Happosai said. "You've come to play as well? My, my, but I think I would prefer if it had been my darling Ranma-chan..."
"Where is he?" Ranma murmured. "I can't see him anywhere..."
Just then, one of the hydrants standing at the side of the street exploded, and a strong jet of water came flying towards Ranma.
He managed to step out of the way, but the water spray drenched him anyway. Luckily, it didn't hit his flame-tail.
"Dang," the damp Vulpix-girl grumbled. "I really have to be careful from now on... when my tail flame is being hit by all that water that I seem to attract since getting my curse, things will become ugly..."
"Whoooooh..." Happosai shouted with glee. "FOXY LADY!" And suddenly, he was glomping on Ranma-chan's furry mammaries.
Ranma tried to get him off, but it was like her hands were passing through thin air. "Hey, geddoff! Stupid perv!"
Happosai gave her another quick fondle, then he... FLOATED back. "Trying to hit a ghost, eh? Well, that would be hard to do..."
"A ghost-type..." Ranma realized. "He has become a ghost-type Pokémon..."
"Pokémon?" Ukyo wondered. "So, that's what we've turned into..."
"Right..." Ranma murmured. "And from what I know, normal attacks won't do anything against a ghost..."
He took a closer look at Happosai. He still looked kinda like his old self, but his skin was a dark grey and somehow looked more like it was made of cloth, not skin. And was that a horn on his head?
"You're right, boy..." the master of the Anything Goes school sneered. "And what you can't touch, you can't stop... HOTCHA!" And once again, he was flying at Ranma-chan's chest.
"VUUUUULLL!"
A blazing trail of flames engulfed the ghostly pervert and stopped him in his tracks. Scorched to a black figure, he still hung in the air for a short while and blinked.
Then, he fell to the ground with a groan. "Ow..."
Ranma grinned. "Normal attacks may not work... but fire attacks do!"
Ukyo grinned. So her Ranchan has turned into a fire-type as well? That certainly looked like a sign from heaven...
Now that he was unconscious, Ranma was able to touch the half-Shuppet. He picked him up from the ground and gave him a hard kick that made him fly over the roofs of the houses.
"Thanks for the help, Ranchan," Ukyo smiled. "Um... are your father and the Tendos all right as well?" While Akane was a rival, she and her family have turned into some sort of friends over the time Ukyo had been spending in Nerima.
"Yeah, they're fine," Ranma nodded. "Mom came for a visit, she's okay as well. Wanna come along?"
"Sure!"
----
When Ranma and Ukyo arrived back at the Tendo Dojo, they could already hear two female voices that were shouting at each other.
"I told you already, Ranma is not here! So go already!"
"Shampoo not leave until Airen come back. Wanna see if he's okay!"
"Like I said, he's fine! No reason for you to stay here!"
"Shampoo stay here! That a problem?"
"Problem? You took half of the wall down when coming here, you, you..."
Ukyo grimaced. "Sounds like Shampoo is here already..."
When they entered the living room, they could see Akane and Shampoo standing in front of each other. Akane's spiky fur was standing erect, and a field of crackling electricity surrounded her. Shampoo's skin had turned yellow, while a ring of leaves grew out of her neck. Also, her long hair had turned green instead of purple, and as Ranma looked closer, she could see that it wasn't really normal hair anymore, it was composed of grass and leaves.
"I say it one last time, Shampoo: Back off! Ranma isn't yours!"
"Ranma is Shampoo's Airen! Have said it many times! And if violent girl doesn't give up, she better be prepared for consequences..." She smirked as two vines grew out from under her arms. "Tentacle Rape!"
Akane yelped and jumped back. She sweated... Shampoo couldn't be serious... could she?
Before Akane could find out if the humanoid Bayleef would have really made her threat come true, Ukyo stepped forward and cleared her throat.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you two, but it looks like Ranchan would more likely be a match for me... See, we're both fire-types. Shampoo would likely to burn her leaves of... And Akane... Sorry to say it, but I fear Ranchan probably would get a... SHOCK... if he even touches you."
Akane snarled. "For your information, I can control my electric powers. And if you touch Ranma even once, I'll show you just how much volt is flowing through me now..."
"Violent girl would only make him light up like street lantern. Shampoo may be plant, but is also Amazon. So she's stronger than either of you."
"Come and try..." the Jolteon and Cyndaquil growled simultaneously. By now, Ukyo's back flames were once again burning brightly.
By now, Kasumi had enough. She stepped forward and spit out three quick jets of water, each one hitting one of the prattling girls.
(Splash) FFFFSSSSHHHHH... Ukyo groaned as her flames were being extinguished, and multiple trails of steam were floating upwards...
(Splash) CRACKLE! ZAP! Akane got a shock herself as the water hit her field of dancing electricity.
(Splash) "Bayleef?" In Shampoo's place was now standing a complete Bayleef on four legs, looking down at herself in surprise.
Kasumi sighed. "Now, can we discuss this quietly?"
