It had not been a nice day for Ranma.
After months of trying to clean up the fiancee mess his father made for him, he had managed to break them all off by using something no one had expected: logic.
None of the engagements were valid due to some manner of inaccuracy or inconsistency in the agreements, and it had taken several months of searching for the answer to find this information.
Of course, none of the girls were happy with this turn of events -for some reason or other- and had taken out their displeasure on the source; Ranma.
During the course of Ranma's fight for survival, his rivals had gotten wind of the battle and joined in to defend their respective romantic pursuits' honour.
Ryoga had shown up after the third building had been knocked down, but had not realised there was a fight going on as he stuffed a short mushroom down the surprised Ranma's throat and held him in a choke-hold until the fungal growth had been swallowed.
Not only did Ranma shrink to the age of eight, but he had found out that the ageing mushrooms were no more - the last one was the one Ryoga had forced Ranma to eat, which meant he had to return to his own age the natural way.
So it was that bruised, dirty and miserable, Ranma was sitting in the rubble of a fourth building, dreading his return to the Tendo Dojo for the reasons of rejecting all his fiancees and having cost a lot of money in destruction.
"Damn it," the boy cursed. "I wish I had some way of solving all this ..."
-APPEAR!-
Ranma looked up at the oddly eloquent smoke screen in resigned expectancy ... what else could go wrong?
"Puny human child, I am your fairy godfader," announced a strangely familiar voice from inside the cloud.
The smoke cleared, and Ranma had to raise a brow at the new strangeness.
"Come now, on wit de wishing, I have odder duties to attend to, also," encouraged the Germanic-accented, deep voice, from the tall, heavily muscled man with white military cut hair and camouflage clothes.
The wings on the man's back, the tiny crown on his head did not make him look more masculine - but the huge staff with a gold star on one end combined with the clear monstrous strength certainly would keep anyone from making fun of him.
"Huh?" asked Ranma eloquently.
"Oh, did your mozzer not read you bedtime stories?" groaned the huge man and slapped his face in resignation. "Very well, I am Jorgen Von Strangle, your fairy godfader. Since you are a sad little boy, I have been assigned to you to grant your wishes. Now make wit de wishes so I can perform my duties in Fairy World."
"Mr Schwarzewnegger, sir," started Ranma hesitantly.
"Jorgen Von Strangle," interrupted the fairy insistently. "My last little boy did everyting in his power to become like me after he did not need me any more - now on wit de wishing."
"Nu-uh," protested Ranma. "No way, I ain't makin' any wishes! Magic and wishes only lead teh bad things!"
