It didn't take long for the potion to take effect. It did have a good amount of material to work with. For a year now Ranma had been in near constant contact with Akane Tendo, developing a shaky but definite bond to the girl. And now due to the influence of this potent Hate potion there all of that was destroyed. With all of the tiny snubs, the instances of anger, her treating his unwanted enemies with more compassion than him, yes there was much to work with.
Ranma was very much a kind person but everyone has limits. A dark rage came over him. Hatred twisted his features into a nasty sneer. The object of inense hate was before him. But something was wrong this was not how he... but no... There was nothing but desire to right all the wrongs he had endured. And he would begin with her.
"Those idiots! What were they thinking?! Trying to force together again, the nerve of them, right Ranma? Ranma? Are you listening to me?! Answer me you jerk!" Akane began to build up steam as she ranted about their fathers.
"Shut up." It was quiet but commanding and Akane unwittingly obeyed it. For a second. And then she got angry, and that was perhaps the biggest mistake she could have made. For in her anger she struck at Ranma who was barely holding back the desire to splatter her across the dojo, to spread the tattered bits of her body over the world, to bathe in a fountain of her blood.
In Ranma's experience before and after settling in Nerima with the Tendos there were no few encounters with just plain bizzare happenings. For instance the Neko-ken, Jusenkyou, the dragon-hair soup, the phoenix pill, the various fights with mythicals beasts all providing a brief window into the less inhibited bestial nature of man. This Hate potion just took a figurative sledge hammer to that window. And Ranma roared his outrage as Akane punched him into a wall.
"You are not strong." came from Ranma's indent. A deep crimson aura bled off into the air. Calmly getting up and nonchalantly brushing a few wooden splinters from his clothes. Akane gasped as she saw his face, something dark glittered from his eyes, looking out at her. This is was not Ranma!
Outside the two men hastened to undo the bindings on the dojo even as they weeped with the knowledge of what they have done. It was too bad really that they bound it with a gusto that outdid anything they did to bind Happousai. It didn't help that the horrible shrieks of pain were interfering with the process, each one more horrible than the last.
