And then it happened. He felt himself start to 'appear'. The area around him took form, and he could see his surroundings. A highly forested area that was overrun with vegeation. The land was so cluttered with trees, and thr ground was completely covered in healty green grass and flowers. "Is this Jade?" Ranma asked no one in particular.
Concentrating, Ranma could hear the sounds of nature all around him. The sound of birds were hanging in the air, and there were smells, sights, and other incredible feelings from such enhanced/heightened senses that Ranma had to sit down, feeling slightly overwhelmed from trying to take in everything at once. "It's incredible..."
After a few moments of just sitting down on the ground with his back to a tree, Ranma shook his head a bit and tried to stand. Back on his feet, Ranma realized that he was going to have trouble. He was going to have to retrain himself. He wasn't used to haveing such accute senses, and he was pretty damn sure that with his new body, his fighting skills would be 'off' for some time to come.
"Well, better find out where I am exactly." Ranma muttered out, to no one in particular. Blinking his eyes at that statement, he shhrugged. "Wait. Why should I care? I'm in no hurry to go anywhere right now."
And he meant it. Ranma had a feeling he was in Jade, but, so what? He had no clue where he should go, or what there was to accomplish here. "Hopefully, people won't notice me..." Ranma thought.
Looking around, Ranma decided to pull a 'Ryoga'. Choosing a random direction, Ranma just began walking.
However, as he walked, Ranma did admire the scenary. He wasn't used to such an abundant amount of nature. Even back home, when he was growing up on the road with his father, the woods they had always stopped in were nothing like this. The forest was very healthy, vibrant, and filled with life of all sorts. "A small paradise..."
Ranma stopped at that thought. Paradise. What he had seen of the forest was beautiful. but was this place really a paradise, though? He had not seen anyone else, and that set him on edge. "I'll save judgement until after I meet someone..."
And so, Ranma continued walking, his tail swaying back and forth behind him.
