Sanzenin Ranma is?”
Genma blinked, his mind going into overdrive. “Sanzenin? Isn’t that that obscenely rich oil tycoon? Yes I’m set for life if I can just leech off of the worthless boy’s inheritance.” Sadly, the foot-in-mouth syndrome that appears to plague all Saotome men had kicked in.
“Worthless son? You mean Ranma isn’t manly?”
Genma paled. “Oh fuck. I said that out loud, didn’t I?”
“Yes, dear.” Nodoka almost growled, a red aura rising around her. “You did.”
Ranma looked up from his seventh helping of sukiyaki. “Mwha Mwa Ma Mao?”
Kasumi frowned slightly. “Remember your manner’s Ranma-kun. Don’t speak with your mouth full.”
Ranma winced and swallowed. He feared a scolding from Kasumi more then anything in the world (except maybe Akane’s cooking and c-c-cats. Yep, those cute fuzzy little hellspawn definitely topped the list of things that Saotome Ranma feared). “Sorry ‘bout that, Kas-chan.” Kasumi smiled at him and he felt as if the weight of the world just lifted off his shoulders. “What was that sound? It was almost like the sound of ultimate suffering combined with a chorus of c-c-c-c-c-those things.”
Soun looked up from his newspaper. Then he shrugged and snapped it back into place, continuing where he left off.
Nodoka stood above a beaten and badly mutilated Genma, who was lying on the ground moaning in pain. “Now, Genma, do tell me of the training journey you took my son on. I want the trip, the whole trip, and nothing but the trip...especially the springs of Jusenkyo.”
“H-how did you know of that?” Genma stuttered, paling to a new definition of pasty-white. ‘Ohcrap,gonnadie,ohcrap,gonnadie,ohcrap,gonnadie ’
Nodoka smiled mysteriously. “Oh, I have my ways...”
Up in her bedroom, Nabiki hardly noticed the sneeze she let out as she continued to stare at the briefcase of ten-thousand-yen notes Nodoka had plopped in front of her a few hours ago for information regarding one Ranma Saotome. “I had no idea Auntie Nodoka was so loaded...”
