"I wonder why the yolks are blue?" Nabiki questioned as she picked at the chicken embryo in question with a piece of toast. Covering some of the toasted bred in the yalk, Nabiki lifted it to her lips and took a bite. She considered the taste for a moment and shrugged. "Tastes normal," Nabiki thought, "Gina probably used food coloring."
Nabiki continued to eat her breakfast slowly. Damn, was life ever complicated for her. Things had started out simple enough, she was the bread-winner of the Tendo family, setting up all sorts of 'businesses' around the schools she'd attend, as to come up with all sorts of much-needed cash for the house. After all, it's not like her father did any work anymore, the lazy bum.
Sighing, Nabiki always knew something bad was going to happen to her if she continued with this business; like someone coming after her for revenge. However, nothing could have prepared her for this. She didn't expect to have her humanity and virginity ripped from her by some evil, pyschotic, masochistic bastard werewolf. He had, in all sense and purposes, destroyed Nabiki Tendo. Now there was a pregnant werewolf in place of the former 'Ice Queen of Furinkan High'.
Nabiki slumped her shoulders, and pushed her plate away from her. She wasn't very hungry anyay at the moment. Her nerves were frayed beyond belief. There was no way she was going to be able to contact her family like this...
Or could she?
Nabiki shook her head. She couldn't.
But then her family did deserve to know...
Sighing, Nabiki folded her arms on the table and rested her chin on them. She knew her family deserved to know she was alive, but she didn't want to tell them the truth... At least, not all of it right away. She knew her family and how they were probably acting all to well...
In Nabiki's mind, she knew how her father would act. He acted like a certain way in situations like this enough for Nabiki to not even doubt what he would do. He probably freaked out, blamed everyone else, and then kicked Ranma out of the Dojo to find her. Hell, Ranma had already come over to save her, so of course her father had kicked him out! She knew that once he found out she had been changed into a werewolf and knocked up, that he'd probably go into another hysterical fit, doing a great impression of Niagra Falls.
Then there was Akane. Nabiki knew her little sister would blow her top over this, and probably try to find Brendan so that she could gain vengeance. Nabiki shook her head at that though. She wasn't doubting herself on that was how Akane would act, however, she was afraid for her little sister. Akane had nowhere near the skill or power to even hurt that monster of a werewolf. She'd just be easy picking and probably made another furry fuck-toy for that baster Brendan. And Nabiki would never forgive herself if that happened.
Nabiki grunted as she thought of Genma. She didn't care what that fat panda thought. He wasn't an option.
However, a small chuckle came from Nabiki as she thought of Happosai. He'd probably take this well. Knowing the little lech, he'd think of her as exotic, and be very happy that she had a larger chest, giving him something more to grab onto.
As her thoughts turned to Nodoka, Nabiki knew that the Saotome Matriarch would be a wild card in all this. Hell, Ranma had to deal with her as if walking on glass for almost a year before he came clean. At times, she was the proper Japanese housewife. At others, she was a modern pervert. Nabiki knew that, when it came down to it, Nodoka might either be really accepting of this, and tell her to bed her son, or demand that she commit seppuku, as to mantain the 'honor' of the Tendo Clan. "As if there was any honor there, with all of Daddy and Mr. Saotome's stupidity," Nabiki grumbled.
Finally, there was Kasumi. Nabiki knew that Kasumi was far more observant than she let on. And she was the second wild card. Nabiki had no idea how Kasumi would react. Would she blame Nabiki, and treat her like father, like some imbecile? Would she be sympathetic and try to help? Would she act with the old-fashioned 'proper' traditional Japanese outlook, and see her as having dishonored her family? Or would Kasumi be more modern than that?
Nabiki wondered. Still, she could try to contact them. She could hold back all the information for now, so that the wouldn't worry, and they could at least have a few relaxing days before she dropped the bomb that was the news of her current state of being.
Groaning, Nabiki shook her head. She knew that was only wishful thinking. Kasumi would want to know the truth, and any lie she could come up with, Kasumi would be able to see through. This would put Nabiki on the hot-spot as everyone would want to then know the full truth as soon as possible.
Sighing, Nabiki came to her decision. She couldn't call them. She was genuinely afraid of telling them the truth, telling them she was a werewolf and pregnant. "God, my life sounds like some horrible 80's Horror B-Movie..." Nabiki grumbled.
Nabiki then took another look at the blue eggs. "It's even got the cheesy props..."
