As soon as the near-blind hidden weapons-master transformed into his male form and dressed he walked quickly to Cologne's room. Knocking quietly on the door he heard the Elder's summons.
"What is it Mousse?"
Mousse began."Honored Elder, while trailing Shampoo I saw and heard a most disturbing talk between Akane Tendou, Ukyou Kounji, Shampoo, and Nabiki Tendou."
"Tell me what you heard."
"To begin with Nabiki did a quiet investigation on Genma after Ukyou arrived in Nerima. From how she is talking it's pretty bad. Bad enough for the Japanese authorities to take away Nodoka's right to be Ranma's mother."Mousse paused.
"Continue."
"Everyone will assume that anything Nodoka tries will be seen as an attempt to keep her family name and reputation out of the dungheap. As Nabiki herself said it's too late for Nodoka to do anything about it and that is not the worst."
"How could that not be the worse Mousse?" Cologne asks with the most worried expression on her face that Mousse had ever seen.
"Shampoo offered to use the magical lantern to split Ranma's curse form from his real form."
"By the Gods!?"
"And you know as well as I do that Ranma living three months past the splitting is nonexistent. Sure some do survive but that happening is so rare. Plus the fact Ranma will figure out what would happen and I do not think you want a Ranma's, even though he is weakened, wrath on our people. Three months would be enough time to have Ranma exterminate our tribe."
"You are correct Mousse. After all that Ranma has done for those girls and still they try to make his life, now how did Ryouga put it?"
"A living hell?"
"Yes. By the way what was your plan if I did not listen?"
"I would inform Ranma of this and that is still my plan. Ranma and his mother need time to counter Nabiki's attack plus the ex-fiancees." Taking a deep breath he continued. "Elder, we need to tell Ranma and his mother. What those girls are doing is wrong."
Cologne's face was visibly saddened as she nodded in agreement. Giving Mousse the signal to follow her both Amazons roofhopped to the Saotome home.

Knocking on the door and waking up both Saotomes they were let in when the occupants of the home saw the serious expressions on Cologne's and Mousse's face. Cologne apologized for the late night call and explained the reason they were there. Both of the Saotomes' face showed extreme anger as Cologne explained the visit.
Finally Ranma spoke in a tone that scared everyone there even Cologne. "We showed them mercy for their dishonorable actions and this is how they thank us. By taking my mother away and murdering me by offering a cure that would kill me. They would even brainwash the girl into loving them."
Ranma paused then continued. "Now that we know what do we do?"
