Cologne made her way to the Saotome household, she just hoped that Nodoka could shed some light on what had happened to Ranma. When she got to the front door, she knocked. And waited several minutes for Nodoka to open the door. Colonge winced inwardly as she saw that Nodoka had been crying, and it didn't take two guesses as to why. "W-what is it that you want?"
Cologne smiled gently, "You shouldn't cry."
Nodoka nearly snarled, "Why not?! My son fought that bird-person, unlocked his true power and then died on me!"
Cologne shook her head, "He's not dead. In fact he's very much alive at this moment."
Nodoka blinked in shock, "Just what do you mean?" She asked anxiously.
"I saw him after the battle was over, trying to make sense of what he was, but Ranma is very much alive at the moment."
Nodoka sniffled, "Just what do you mean?"
Cologne smirked a bit, "I said I saw him after the battle, in fact I met up with him, and I gave him a scroll to teleport himself to a place called Jade."
Nodoka backed up in shock, "He's in Jade? With the other werecats?"
Cologne raised an eyebrow at her, "I see that you know of what your son is. But I do not. Just what type of werecat is he?"
Nodoka smirked, at odds with her teary face. "Well, he's a cross between this." She then shifted into hybrid form, stretching her kimono to the max. And Colonge blinked in shock at the sight of Nodoka being a werecheetah, but before she could say anything, Nodoka continued, "And the rarest of all werecats, a weresmilidon, or sabretooth weretiger if you will."
Cologne was in pure shock, "So, then Genma isn't Ranma's real father then?" Nodoka shook her head, and Cologne laughed, "Ha! At least Ranma doesn't have to worry about polluting the gene pool if he ever has kids." They shared a laugh at that. Cologne grew somber after a moment, "I'm afraid I don't know what a sabretoothed weretiger is, just what is it's strengths?"
Nodoka smiled, albiet a bit sadly. "Well, you see, a weresmilidon is the strongest of all werecreatures. Stronger than a werewolf and werelion combined."
Cologne's eyes widened, "Holy! Now that's strong!" Seeing Nodoka raise an eyebrow, she continued, "You see the Musk Dynasty is modeled after werecreatures, they used to dunk animals into the girl spring, lock them and then force them to have children, anyways, the tiger men have always had increadible physical strength and one time I watched a tiger man fight a werewolf when I was only sixty." Cologne shook her head, "The werewolf proved to be much stronger and tougher and then beat the tiger man into unconsciousness."
Nodoka nodded her head and frowned at the mention of a werewolf. "Yes, but the werewolves killed all the werecheetahs as far as I know." She shook her head, "The only reason I'm alive is because I decided to take a trip a few days before my people went to meet the werewolves." She shook her head, "Let's go inside, I don't want anyone else to listen."
Cologne nodded, "Yes, and perhaps you should get some clothes that will fit you better." She laughed a bit when Nodoka flushed.
