Kodachi nodded, "Yes."
Theo nodded, "Okay." When he saw Julia next he'd have to tell her about what he had discovered. "What about your pet? Would you mind if I shrunk him to five inches and then resized him when we got back?"
Kodachi hummed and looked at Midorigame, "I don't think he'll mind."
Theo nodded and shrunk the Aligator to five inches and placed him inside a cage. After that was over, he teleported the three of them, plus the ton of luggage to the Saotome yard.
Kodachi looked around, "How come we're outside?"
Sasuke hummed, "Probably because Dr. Diggers doesn't want to take everything inside."
"Oh. Good point."
It was at this time that the three of them heard some people walking into the yard, turning they saw Ranma, being supported by Sheila and Nabiki, Julia, being supported by Gar and Tirga, Nodoka, who was walking by some fat man, whom Kodachi recognized as Genma, and Brianna.
Theo frowned, "What happened?"
Julia smirked, "The sparring match got out of hand. We tied each other by nearly killing each other."
Ranma chuckled, "I don't think anything short of a death-strike would put either of us down Mrs. Diggers."
Julia nodded, "Very true."
Nabiki blinked, "Oh yeah, Gar, I think that gold piece you bet me is yours."
Gar shook his head, "Nahh, keep it. The bet I made was that sensei would beat Ranma."
Nabiki chuckled, "Okay."
Brianna frowned as she saw the Wererat, "Who's that?"
Ranma blinked, "Sasuke?"
The Wererat nodded, "Yes, it is me."
Brianna looked at Theo, "Dad, what's this about?"
"Nothing too important dear, at least for you." Theo looked a bit cross at Ranma, "How dare you hurt my wife?!"
"Theodore Diggers! It was a sparring match, things got out of hand."
Theo deflated a bit, "Sorry dear."
Julia nodded, "Okay. Now let's go inside and rest up a bit, I'm tired."
Ranma grinned, "I'll be fine in a few hours."
Theo hummed, "Still, I can heal you both if you want."
"Dear, you had better heal me if you don't want to sleep on the couch for the next week."
"Yes dear."
"Sure, ya can heal me if ya want to."
Tirga looked at Genma, then at Ranma, then back to Genma, "I still can't believe that you two are related through blood. Not to mention I still can't believe you were the one who taught him how to fight."
Genma smirked at Tirga, "I taught him the basics and a few advanced moves. He learned a whole bunch on his own and from other people. I can still keep up with him though."
Nodoka smiled lightly, "Only because you know how our son fights dear."
"Yeah pops. Otherwise, I'd be kicking your butt all over the place with ease. Not that I don't kick your butt anyway."
Genma just rolled his eyes as the group entered the house, "At least you never trained under Happosai like I did."
"Yeah yeah."
Brianna frowned, "Stupid pervert."
Tirga nodded, "I know. He's worse than me. And that's bad."
Sheila giggled, "At least you can admit it."
The group then went inside and Sasuke closed the door, since he felt it was the right thing to do.

Thropan smiled a bit as he saw Onoli and Raphiel come up to him, "Hey you guys, how you doing?"
Raphiel nodded, "Hi Thropan, you know what? I heard this rumor that Sheila just got married or something like that."
Thropan smirked, "Almost right, she actually just got engaged."
Onoli raised an eyebrow, "Really? So she's been seeing someone on her personal vacations without telling anyone else then?"
Thropan nodded, "Yep. But here's the thing, I got Dragen's permission, and Nali's in on this as well, but do you guys want to throw an engagement party for Sheila?"
Onoli hummed, "Sounds like a good idea to me."
"Also, I sent a message to Terio, I thought he'd like to come and party with us."
Onoli nodded, "Ah, that's right, he's a friend of hers. Anyone else?"
Thropan shrugged, "Grayson, Yoten, and Adon might show up, not to mention Cleo, but I think that'll be everyone. Except party crashers."
Onoli nodded, "So we can expect the Eastern Edge Guard to possibly show up huh? Okay."
Raphiel just smiled happily, "YAY! More friends and a big party! WOO HOO!"
Thropan shook his head and muttered, "Is everyone a friend you, Raphiel?"
Raphiel blinked, "Hmm, I don't know."
Onoli and Thropan both sighed at that.

Ranma leaned back against the couch that he was sitting on, Theo had healed him and Julia from their tiredness earlier and now he was just resting as his mom was in the kitchen making food, his dad was talking to Tirga and Gar about something, Theo had gone to talk to Julia while Brianna was talking to Kodachi, Nabiki and Sasuke.
Ranma looked over at Sheila as she read the scroll, "Hey Sheila, what's wrong? You look shocked."
Sheila shook her head, "You know I can only read passable Japanese, I can speak it well enough, but I have a hard time reading it sometimes. But, anyway, from what I read, I just can't explain it, you've got to read it."
Ranma blinked as Sheila handed him the letter that came with the scroll that Happosai had given him, quickly reading it, his jaw dropped to the ground, "HOLY!"
"What's it say?"
"This."
The letter read:
To Ranma Saotome,
Heh, the scroll which I gave you allows you to teach Anything Goes.
But this letter is something a bit "more". You see, all my life, I have
been looking for an heir, one to pass my school onto. Well, I finally
found one. You, Ranma Saotome, are my heir to the school.
Congradulations, Grandmaster Ranma. May the school live through you.
Ranma just stared at the letter in shock, "He made me the Grandmaster to the school?" His eyes rolled up into the back of his head and he fainted.
Sheila stared in shock when she heard him read that, "Holy damn."

A.N. For that party that's planned, please just keep it to the Northern and Eastern Edge Guards, Dragen, Nali and Ranma. That's 14 characters already, we don't really need anymore.
