What Will the Summer Bring?
Chapter 1
Written By: Ryan H. (Nabikchan)
Original characters by: Rumiko Takahashi I don't claim any rights to these characters, I just used them in a little story I came up with. I may be Nabikchan but that doesn't mean I have Nabiki�s mannerisms.

Chapter One: "What do you mean you don't want to fight?"


�� �� Ranma and Akane's morning routine of ridicule and fighting was missing this morning, but something about this peace made Akane a little worried. Ranma walked along the fence, Akane on the sidewalk, as it was usually when they were on their way to school. For the first time since he arrived to the Tendo Dojo, he said no words of ridicule to Akane. Ranma seemed fine with this silence, but Akane on the other hand wanted an argument. She looked forward to it each day. "What's the matter, cat got your tongue today?" In reply, Ranma silently turned and faced the other direction. "Hey! Stupid, say something!" She stopped and kicked the fence. He seemed to be lost deep in thought. "Why are you ignoring me? What's with you today Ranma?� She said almost sweetly at first then yelled, �talk to me." He just continued to walk, acting as though he didn't hear her. This action REALLY pissed Akane off. [What does Ranma do that doesn't piss Akane off?] She jumped onto the fence directly in front of him. He stopped, yet he still did not look up at Akane, he remained there, staring at his feet. "Ranma, look at me . . . please?" He still didn't move. She realized that he wasn't going to respond to anything she said, so she bent down to look at his face, "look at me." She sounded really concerned. {Now that's a first for Akane! When has she ever worried about him so much?} When he again didn't react, she tilted his chin so she could see his face without having to bend down. "Don't . . . not unless you are willing to here me out." She looked at her watch, "not now we're late again!" They both took off running toward the school as fast as possible. ���� The day went slowly as Akane thought, in concern, of Ranma **What is the matter with him? I've never seen him so . . . oh what�s the work . . . I guess depressed would work. He's worse than he was during the moxibustion! This is odd, even for Ranma. What is that stupid jerk�s problem today? I wonder how willing he will be to tell me what the hell is wrong with him.**
���� During lunch, the students gathered in their usual groups. "Hey Ranma, what's wrong?" asked Daisuke, concerned for his friend. Hiroshi came up behind Daisuke, "Duh Daisuke, he was up all night with Akane, he's tired!" Hiroshi whispered and they both burst out laughing. [HENTAI, HENTAI, HEENTAAAAII!!! Gomen, I could not help myself] "Shut the hell up Hiroshi before I kick your ass!" [And here I thought Akane was the only one to go through PMS!!] Ranma shouted as he stood up and left. "Damn, what's his problem? I was only joking." Daisuke shrugged his shoulders. "Maybe Akane would know." With that he walked over to where she was sitting with a group of her friends. "Good afternoon Akane." She turned to look at who was speaking to her. "Oh konnichiwa Daisuke!" "Tell me, do you know what's up with Ranma today?" She shook her head sadly, "not a clue, why?" She had not thought about Ranma since lunch had began, she tried not to. "He just exploded at Hiroshi a minute ago, I mean big time!" Akane widened her eyes "why would he do that? Hiroshi is one of his best friends, I'm beginning to think he's depressed about something. He acted weird this morning on the way to school, I didn't think much of it but now . . . I don't know. Maybe we should go out and find him, will you come help me find him?" Turning back to her friends, Akane told them she'd meet them after school by the gates to walk home. Her and Daisuke left the room together. **We have to find him before he hurts someone. He's unpredictable when he's mad.** Akane was really worried now. **If he exploded like that at a friend who knows what he might do to someone who really pisses him off!**
���� Akane and Daisuke searched the entire school grounds, but still couldn�t find Ranma anywhere. The bell rang and the next class was just starting, Akane could not think straight. Whether she was worried about Ranma or the next person who pissed him off, she didn't know, but whatever it was, it was disturbing to her now. **Where the hell could he be? Why is he acting like this? . . .Wonder whose ass he�ll kick . . . Wait a minute, Why should I care what that jerk does! Let him run away and pout for all I care! . . . Why . . . why am I caring so much? Could it actually be that I . . . that I . . . NEVER . . . or maybe it's possible that . . . ** "MISS TENDO!!" the teacher shouted. "Hai sensei." Akane tried to snap herself out of her thoughts by shaking her head. "Do you know the answer or not?" **Uhh oh** "Gomen nasai sensei I was not listening, could you repeat it?" "Never mind the class is almost over, otherwise I would send you in the hall and if I catch you sleeping in my class again young lady, I won't hesitate sending you to the principle�s office!" "Gomen nasai sensei!" **I can tell it's going to be a very long rest of the day! DAMN YOU, RANMA!! You are making my day a living hell, just because you can't control yourself!!**

Chapter Two:"Me...train with you? You must be joking!"


�� �� After a day that seemed to take forever, Akane was happy to arrive home. "Welcome home Akane, how was your day?" Kasumi greeted Akane as she came in the door. "I had a lot on my mind today, so I felt as though I was at school for an eternity." She threw her shoes down and started up the stairs. "Ranma came home early, he went up stairs and hasn't come down yet. Is something wrong?" Akane heard Kasumi's question, but she didn't reply **Don't worry Kasumi you're not the only clueless one this time!** [This time???] Akane, now in her room threw down her school bag and flopped on her bed. "Oi, Akane." Said a soft, spiritless voice. Akane jumped out of her bed and looked toward the window. There on the window sill sat Ranma, legs crossed staring at his feet. "Is this where you've been all this time?" Ranma could sense some concern in her voice. "Hai," was all he could say as he slowly glanced up to see her face it was one of kindness and caring. "Daisuke and I were looking all over for you. Hiroshi said he was just kidding, I don't know what he could have said to piss you off so badly, but then again I guess it's none of my business."
�� �� Akane sat down on her bed and to Ranma's surprise motioned for him to come sit next to her. "Please, Ranma tell me what's wrong." Her voice was sweet and loving, Ranma could not believe she could actually care so much about what was bothering him. Ranma didn't want to risk Akane's father listening in on what he had to say, so he said in a low voice, "I've been thinking . . . ya' know . . . since you and I are the rightful heirs to the Anything Goes Martial Arts . . . um . . . maybe I should . . . teach you some of my best techniques . . . ya' know, your strength combined with the Saotome family techniques you'd be unstoppable." He could not believe what he had just said, but he knew the only way to tell her what he wanted to say was to get her alone and not let anyone else know what was going on. **ME train Akane, Shit I can't fight her, or survive her nasty food!!** "Would you really train me? I mean I should be thankful for your offer but . . . you usually refuse to fight me . . . you would still . . . " He nodded his head. "Doomo arigato, Ranma." **Shit now I'm stuck!!** "Yeah, I mean, not to be rude but, you've kind of put your skills to waste since I arrived, you've backed off . . . why?" Akane shrugged "I don't know, maybe it's because I felt you didn't need me to help . . . or . . . maybe it's just . . . I feel I've lost my place in the world . . . in the world of the martial arts... I used to be the greatest until..." She sighed and lowered her head. **With her admitting that, maybe it won't be so hard to get her to open up and talk to me.** "So that's why you don't accept me? Because you feel I've beaten you! You're wrong Akane, I'm going to need all the help I can get to keep the dojo running smoothly." Ranma now understood everything; the fighting and the ridicule had all been because the misunderstanding of her purpose in this relationship. She was the rightful heir to the Tendo school of Anything Goes Martial Arts, he was the heir to the Saotome School of Anything Goes Martial Arts, they were engaged in order to keep the school alive, which meant both had to contribute their efforts and techniques. Ranma felt the best way to change the subject of her place was to get her to talk to her father about going with him. **Wait a minute, if she asks her father like that he's sure to start with that 'fiancee' crap again!** "Akane, I want you to ask your pop if you can go out of town with Sayuri. I'll tell my pop I'm goin' on a training journey. I want you to take a backpack full of your camping supplies; I don't mean dishes or that type of stuff, I mean extra clothes, make sure to take warm clothing in case it gets cold up there. I will take the major things, you just take care of your necessities. I'll meet you at Sayuri's house at five o'clock, 'kay?" Akane nodded. "I'll go ask now." She stood up and started out the door, than poked her head back in the doorway, narrowed her eyes and said, "I just warn you, you had better not have been in here the whole time! And you'd better get the hell out of my room!!!" Ranma jumped up and followed her down the hall until they reached his room, he went inside, she continued down the stairs.
�� �� Ranma spent the next hour packing and organizing the supplies they needed. He made sure to pack two tents and two sleeping bags, shampoo, conditioner, plenty of extra clothes, his douhgi, and other items he felt would aid him in training Akane (Bandages, pain killers, etc....) After completing this task he went for a nice relaxing bath. "No matter how much I hate this curse, I need a nice cold bath to help me relax." He said to himself as he took of his shirt. Throwing cold water over his head to get used to the temperature before climbing into the bath. She (meaning Ranma of course) closed her eyes and remembered the many things that had taken place since he was engaged to Akane. The fights with Kirin, Toma, Herb and . . . Saffron, how could he forget Saffron. The fight with him was the worst, especially since Akane was almost killed. Ranma still wondered how she survived after her eyes were shut. The Jusenkyo guide had said that if her eyes had closed completely, it was too late. He never gave up in that fight, but she almost did. Even after she had heard the consequences of her closing her eyes she still seemed not to fight it as hard as he believed she could. {Gomen if you haven't read the thirty-eighth yet how could I write about afterwards without referring to it?} Ranma wished he could forget that day, but no matter how he tried he couldn't. That was the closest he came to loosing Akane and the closest to telling her his true feelings. Even though this was bad, some of the other memories that came to him in the bath were worse. Ones from the first day, Akane walking in seeing him in the buck, running through the house screaming as if she found Kuno in the bathroom waiting for her saying 'My love, into my embrace, my love' (at least she never had that happen to her). Ranma could not help but shiver at he thought of Kuno. The thoughts that came to mind with Kuno, and this bathroom . . . **Good GOD I think I'm gonna hurl!! I'd better get out and wash my hair, I'd rather not end up puking in the tub! Hmmm . . . the restaurant owner said that my change into a female counteracts the rice porridge, thank Kami for that.** She pulls out the whisker and places it on the sink so she won't lose it, and pulls the band out of her hair, letting it fall. She took her time in washing her hair. Loosing thought of what she was doing, she filled the bucket to rinse her hair with hot water. Tiping it over her head and immediately regretting doing so, she turned to he. The soup immediately took effect and his hair quickly began to grow. "DAMN!" He yelled. **Gotta get it back up before it gets too long.** "KATCHU TENSHIN AMAGURIKEN!!!" Ranma used this technique to braid his hair and put the whisker back. He trimmed off the extra hair and headed back into his room to check if he had everything. Accomplishing that meant he was ready to head over to Sayuri's house.
�� �� Ranma had to find his dad to tell him of his leaving, "Pop!, Yo Pop, where are ya'?" He shouted, hoping he wouldn't have to search for him. "What is it Boy?!" Genma asked with an annoyed look on his face. "I'm goin' on a training trip, I'll be back in about a week." Genma began to stand up saying, "Wait, I'm coming . . . " "NO, I'm going on my own. I need time to myself, to get away on my own, to clear my mind." Ranma's voice was very serious, the most serious Genma had ever heard him. "Why don't you take Akane, you could do some VERY IMPORTANT TRAINING!!!" That remark made Ranma wish he could just punch his pop out here and now!! "You actually think I could help HER!!!� Ranma retorted, �I'm going, Ja ne!"
�� �� Ranma arrived at Sayuri's house at around two minutes till five. He rang the doorbell, "Oh hi, Ranma, come on in." He did what was asked of him, "Where's Akane?" "Upstairs, I'll go get her." She disappeared up the stairs. Sayuri came back down, followed by Akane. "Ready?" Ranma asked. "Hai! Let's go. Arigato Sayuri, ja ne!" Akane bowed in thanks. "Ja ne Akane-chan, ja ne Ranma-kun." "Ja ne Sayuri-chan, arigato" Ranma and Akane bowed in thanks, than left.
���� They walked toward the train station. "You have everything you need?" Ranma asked. "Hai!" Akane replied. "Sure? Douhgi?, Pants, shorts, shirts; long and short sleeves, tank top? You will not, absolutely will NOT wear skirts or dresses during this training mission!" Ranma's voice was very insistent. "I know . . . I know! I have everything . . . except maybe the tank top, but what does it matter?" She looked up at Ranma to see his reaction for her forgetting something. "Oh well, if it is absolutely necessary you can borrow one of mine." Their conversation ended there. They continued to walk, side by side. After about five minutes, Ranma slipped his fingers into Akane's. Akane had not realized what he had done until he closed his hand on hers. This action startled her. She glanced up at him, blushing he looked back at her. Realizing that they were now staring at each other, they both quickly looked the other way. "A lot like Ryugenzawa, isn't it?" She asked, blushing. "Hai, it . . . it is, but this time it isn't out of jealousy." Ranma could not believe he had just admitted to being jealous of Shinnosuke! "What do you mean 'out of jealousy'? You were actually jealous of him" **She acts as though she was never jealous of Shampoo or Ukyou! What? She didn't think I was human or something! Of course I was, any human would. He was making moves on MY fiancee, She actually thought I could handle that?** "Hai, I was jealous, but what man wouldn't be if someone was making their move on HIS fiancee? Hai, I admit envying him for being able to hold a peaceful conversation with you and not getting into a fight. I would say nice things like he said, but you would never give me the time of day, nor would you believe me." Akane lowered her head. "I wanted time alone with you, Akane. I want you to find out who I really am. I never really had a woman in my life, so, I had no idea of how to act. I want to know what true love feels like, I want you to help me find out. I asked you to come because I felt if your pop as well as mine overheard this they would go ballistic trying to plan the wedding, I don't want that, not right now." Akane was shocked to hear of Ranma's true reason for asking to train her. **Why? Why is he acting like this? Is he actually maturing or is it just to joke around with my feelings, I mean he does it all the time to Ryouga so why should I believe him? Yet . . . I WANT to believe him . . . this time I REALLY WANT to believe him!** "I know what you mean, our parents would be on us like a couple of flies on shit. Is this what was bothering you today?" {Well, she finally figured it out, took her long enough!!} [Do you have something against Akane or something?] {Shut up Angie!} [Hey, where is my freedom of speech?] {Hey it's my story not the damn constitution's!!} [Umm...it's the Bill of Rights] {SHUT UP ANGIE!!} "Hai. I didn't know how you would respond to me being truthful. Let's continue this conversation later, after we set up camp or maybe on the way to sleep?" It was odd for him to open up like this, so he wasn't very comfortable especially with the chance someone who didn't agree with the engagement overhearing this conversation. He hoped he could get Akane to do the same, he wanted to know what she felt. He wanted to know if her feelings were mutual. "Hai." They continued to hold each other's hand on the way to the train station. Ranma realized something, "Where did you want to train, Yumogi Valley or Mount Terror?" {Gee . . . let me think I don't know, which one sounds the best. Let's just go to Jusenkyo while we're at it!!} Ranma asked Akane even though he figured she would choose the most scenic of the two. "I liked the Yumogi Valley, it was peaceful and had a wonderful hot spring." Though it brought back memories of the moxibustion, he replied, "Yumogi Valley it is then!"
���� Arriving at the station, Ranma paid for both their tickets. "Let's get on so we can get good seats." Akane called out, as she pulled Ranma onboard. Ranma put their luggage on the racks. Sitting down they were both happy to give their feet a rest. They both took off their shoes, relief on their feet at last. "Never realized how tough that could be on my feet." Akane said with a sigh of relief. "Try WALKING all the way up there one of these days, THAN complain at me." "I DID, remember? I went after you when you ran away because the Moxibustion, remember?" Ranma had forgotten about that. "How could I forget, you came after me 'cause you thought I invited Ukyou. But never mind that, that was long ago." Ranma laid back in the seat, Akane gently laid her head on his shoulder. After a moment, he put his arm around her, pulling her closer. Akane belonged to him, to Ranma and no other. There was no way anyone would take her from him. It didn't take to long for sleep to wash over her. In Ranma's arms she felt safe. It was forty-five minutes after five and they wouldn't arrive at their stop until around seven thirty. With Akane already asleep Ranma had no trouble doing the same. Soon they were both fast asleep.

Chapter Three: "You actually expect me...to do that?"

Ranma woke up at around seven twenty-eight, about two more minutes before they arrived at their destination. **Well,...better wake up Akane.** He shook her, no response. He called her name, no response still. **That's it!!** He bent down as best he could with her on him, lightly placed his lips on hers. Akane began to stir. Reluctantly he pulled away. "Wha..?" She asked, still half-asleep. "Oh, ohayo Ranma." His face still close to hers. "Ohayo Akane, sleep well?" She nodded. He leaned toward her slightly. Her eyes were now fixed on his. They stared at each other for almost a full minute not saying a word. Than finally as if they knew exactly what the other was thinking, they moved toward each other, both closing their eyes as they neared their destination. This was something Ranma had never imagined would happen, not yet at least. Her lips were so tender, so sweet he never wanted to let go again. Her body so firm in his grasp. **I didn't think her figure was so...her body so...** Caught in the moment, he couldn't think straight. Little by little, the passion built to the point Akane thought her lungs would burst from lack of air, {Forgetting to breath are we Akane?} yet she didn't release, she didn't want to. Ranma was the one to break the kiss, he gently placed a finger on her chin, pushing her back. "Ranma, don't!" She cried in disappointment. Neither one could speak for the moment. They could only stare in surprise. Finally, " ...again?" Ranma asked after a second. As he asked the question, the train stopped. "I guess that answers that, oh well...we'll continue this some other time. Stand up so I can." Akane stood up and stretched." That feels better." Ranma stood up and handed Akane her backpack than put on his own. Getting off the train he stretched, than offered her his hand. Taking his hand in her own, they began to walk toward the valley.

After about an hour of walking they reached a suitable place to set up camp. It didn't take them long to set up their tents, but their walk had made them both hungry. "Ranma, what is there to eat?" Akane's stomach growled furiously. "I didn't bring anything. Ya' want fish?" "Anything is fine. I'm starvin' to death over here." Ranma nodded his head, he couldn't help but agree, he was starved. "All right Akane come here." Walking over to him she asked, "Yeah Ranma, what is it?" He knelt by the side of a small river. "I want you to try the Amaguriken technique." "But..." Akane looked at Ranma surprised. He could tell what she was thinking **Are you crazy Ranma. Me, do that?!** "How do you expect to learn it if you don't try it?" "Why do I have to start now? Can't this wait till tomorrow?" Ranma could tell she was tired and not in the mood for training, but she had to start somewhere. "I don't know...can you stand not to eat that long? I think since this is YOUR training mission, you should fend for yourself as far as food is concerned, that's what I was taught. Try it, if you really feel you can't do it I'll get you some, but don't give up before you try." She kneeled next to him. "Need a demo?" "Hai." He took a deep breath, "KATCHU TENSHIN AMAGURIKEN!" she watched as he pulled a dozen fish out in less than ten seconds. **I can't even see his hands! He must be crazy if he thinks I'll be able to do that!!** "Your turn Akane, don't worry about strength, just concentrate on speed for now and try not to get me wet, I'd rather not be a girl for the night." "I don't know about this Ranma, I mean you know I'm nowhere near as fast as you." "Don't let MY speed intimidate you, just try it." She tried to imitate his movements exactly, **Please don't let me make too much of a fool of myself!** Taking a deep breath, she had a feeling this wasn't going to be an easy task. **Here goes nothing!** she did as she was instructed. Ranma's voice repeated in her head 'Don't worry about strength...concentrate on speed...speed...speed...' "From the side!... Yes!... Akane!... Good!...Come on, that's it!...Faster!... Yes!...Now try to grab the fish!...perfect...wonderful." His voice quickly lost it's enthusiasm and male qualities. Akane stopped, turning around to see Ranma-chan standing there, arms crossed, soaked from head to toe. "Gomen, Ranma. I guess I got a little carried away." "Don't worry Akane, neatness will come with time. Let's eat now. I'm starvin'!" Akane was happy to hear it was time to eat.

Ranma started a campfire just outside the two tents. After boiling water to return to guy form, he built a small stand with a grill on top and placed the fish there to cook. After the two he placed on the grill were cooked as thorough as he felt necessary, he took one in his hand and offered it to Akane. "Ewww...That's disgusting Ranma!!!" Ranma looked at Akane, dumbfounded. "What are you talking about? I thought you said you didn't care earlier?" "That's not what I meant. You expect me to eat it with my bare hands?" Ranma couldn't believe that those words were coming from Akane **Such a tomboy yet...she's acting like such...such a girl!** "All right, what can I do to make you eat?" Akane smiled, "Feed it to me...please?" His face was puzzled, he couldn't understand what her problem was. "Okay, but only if you sit in my lap." She stood up and walked to the other side of the fire to where Ranma was sitting. He sat cross legged, as usual. She sat the same way she did on the train, maintaining eye contact the whole time. Ranma would take a bite than offer one to Akane. "arigatoo Ranma, this tastes wonderful. You know sharing this, it's almost as if we are kissing with every bite." He couldn't help but smile at the thought. After finishing one fish between the two of them. "Akane, stand up." She did as he asked without a word. He rose to his feet right in front of her. "The train interrupted us last time. Can we finish what we started?" Akane's answer came in a way he didn't expect, she threw her arms around him and held him tightly. "Why couldn't things be like this before, Ranma?" Putting his hands on her elbows, pushing her back slightly. He wanted to look into her eyes, her soul, he didn't want to answer, he had wondered the same thing. "kiss me Ranma, kiss me like you did on the train, no, more passionate than that! Please Ranma! I want to lose control!! I want to lose myself to you!! I want you to hold me forever!!" Akane couldn't control herself anymore, the emotion that came from looking into Ranma's eyes was more than she could bare. "Dammit Ranma, I want you!!" Ranma surprised at what he just heard, had no idea how to respond. He now knew she wanted him; his body, soul and the insanity that was Ranma. His mind flooded with thoughts of what the consequences would be: pregnancy, dealing with Kuno, Ryouga and their parents or all, just for one brief night of pleasure with Akane? Hell why not, she was his fiancee after all and it's not like he could control himself forever. "Akane, do you really want to...ya' know...I mean...I see where you're comin' from...but...aw shit, Akane...what if you end up pregnant? Than what will we do?" It was obvious that she hadn't thought of this before. She closed her eyes and lowered her head. "You're right our lives are already crazy yet...oh Ranma, we've made it this far...please? Even if I ended up pregnant, we could handle it...please?" Her voice was deadly serious. She wanted him and she wasn't going to quit until she had him. "You understand the consequences and thought about the future, if you wish to continue a life lived in complete insanity than I'll give in, but I want you to know no matter what happens, I will always be there for you." Nodding she replied, "Arigatoo, Ranma." As she stretched her head upward, her stomach growled really loud. "Um...I don't think I can do this on an empty stomach, let's finish dinner than we'll continue this later." "Good idea."

The end of chapter 3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Geez, didn't Akane just spill all. It must be hard to hold back those feelings for so long, but then again we know how stubborn those two are. I'm almost sick of hearing those two fight, that is why my story was written in the nature that it is. Your C&C would be greatly appreciated and I encourage you to tell me what you think of my writing. For the past month and a half, this story has been my life and my major afterschool activity. I stayed up 'till three or four in the morning numerous weekends just to finish another chapter. Hope you are enjoying it and I hope to hear from you. Nabikchan^-^

Chapter four:"Ryouga no hentai!! Why...why does it have to be this way?"

Not too far in the distance, a dark figure sees the light of a campfire through two tents set up next to each other. **Maybe these people can help me get back to Tokyo.** As he neared the other side of the tents, he saw Akane laying down with her head in Ranma's lap. Ranma was holding a strange object over Akane's head. **What...what has he done to her this time? Why...why does he do such cruel things to Akane, if she were my fiancee I wouldn't do such things to hurt her. I will not let this one pass, he will pay!** Ryouga ran toward the fire, drops his pack and takes his umbrella into his hand, ready to launch on his enemy. "Ranma prepare to die!" he shouted. When Ranma heard the battle cry, he looked up from Akane to see a really pissed off Ryouga running with that damn umbrella. "Ryouga!" Akane screamed as Ranma picked her up off the ground and jumped in to the air. The metal umbrella smashed the part of the ground where Ranma and Akane had been sitting. "Hey, watch it man, you almost hit Akane!" Ranma shouted at Ryouga. "Gomen nasai Akane, I came to pay back Ranma for all the wrong he has done to you" "In other words," Ranma said putting Akane back on the ground. "You got lost again and you had to come across us when things were getting good." "You call tormenting Akane 'getting good'? You bastard!" Only once before had he been called that and he didn't like that name one bit. "What the hell did you just call me, PIG!" "You dare call me a pig, when you're the one who is S...S..Hurting Akane!" [He means Seduce her] "No, that is not it at all, Ryouga" Akane tried to say but was clearly being ignored. As she watched her fiancee and the forever lost boy battle it out by the stream. She was starting to get mad. [Oh, that's a first] "Ok, that's it, cool down the both of you!" Akane stepped forward and shoved them both in to the stream. [..um...not good...] For about a minute, neither of them came up, but when they do Akane is in for a surprise. Akane watched in horror as the minute past and she saw a redhead popped up with a familiar looking little black piglet. Ranma was holding a squealing, squirming Pchan by the bandana "No way, not this time, this time you have to face Akane." "R...Ryouga...is...is... Pchan how...how the hell did that happen? There is no way that they could be one in the same, Pchan was with me when Ryouga was away...what?I...I slept with Ryouga, Ranma why didn't you tell me, I was sleeping with...with..with that HENTAI!!!! He...he..sa..saw my body." Akane dropped to her knees. She buried her face in her hands and started to cry. Ranma-chan climbed out of the stream, pig in hand. "Geez, look at that you jerk, you made her cry." Ranma said softly "You always bitch at me 'cause I tease her. You're no better than your words by keeping this away from her, you had this coming you stupid ass jerk!" Akane walked toward them both, grabbed Pchan and threw him to the ground. "Ryouga, I'm warning you, get the Hell out of my sight before I kick your PERVERTED FUCKIN' ASS!!!!!" Pchan took her words to heart and hauled ass in to the forest. **Damn, she took it really well. Now guess it is my turn, time to face the wrath of an emotionally destroyed Akane.** Ranma thought as this was taking place. To her surprise, Akane turned to her tent and said behind her "There is hot water on the camp fire. Good night." Akane opened the flap to her tent went inside and zipped it up. Ranma stood and thought to herself **If I ever find that stupid little hentai, I'll kill him for ruining my night of fun and pleasure. Damn even being at home I would have a better chance with my old man, Akane's pop, two soon to be sister-in-laws, and that perv...Happosai. Damn that stupid Ryouga, he's the pervert here.**

Akane sat in the middle of the floor in the tent. "Ranma no Baka, you knew about this the whole time, didn't you." Akane said to herself quietly, **Baka...Baka...Ranma no Baka** Her thoughts were interrupted by Ranma calling her name asking permission to enter the tent. "Akane, can I come in please?" His voice was filled with concern. When Akane didn't answer, Ranma walked in to see his fiancee with her back turned to him. Her head was down, shoulders slumped in defeat. Ranma felt a knife cut through his heart as he stared at her, wishing he would have told her long ago. "Ranma, you knew, didn't you" It was not a question. Ranma lowered his head to look at the ground. "Yeah, I've known about it, but I was bound by my honor to not tell anyone. You see, It's my fault he turns into a pig." Ranma looked up to see if she'd react to him telling her this. "And how did that happen?" Akane still not looking up. "Well...um...you see, after me and pop fell into the springs, I was so pissed I chased my pop down. Ryouga was at the wrong place at the wrong time. He was on a cliff trying to see if he could find me, when pop ran toward him he jumped into the air. Not really realizing it, I kicked him off the cliff and in to the 'Spring of drowned pig'. When he told me the story, I promised to keep it a secret, it's part of the warriors code. I found out and made this promise the night you made him you pet. When he started to sleep with you, I tried to tell you with little hints, but you never pick them up. Dammit Akane! I tried to tell you, I wanted to tell you so bad, this is all my fault, I'm sorry Akane, I'll understand if you hate me." Ranma slumped down to his knees and took the position of 'The Crouch Of The Wild Tiger' without the 'I'm sorry', just in silence. He didn't look up until he felt a hand on his shoulder, when he did, he looked up to see Akane looking down at him with a slight smile. "It's not your fault. I know how much your honor means to you. Just tell me one thing, how did Ryouga get there?" "Remember when he followed me to Nerima, when you got you hair cut?" "Of course, how could I forget" Akane knelt in front of Ranma, touching the ends of her short hair. Ranma continued, " He kept trying to find me to make me pay for his following me all the way to China. He had no idea it was me who accidentally knocked him in that day, until that night you asked me to give 'Pchan' a bath. As he told me the story I asked him why he blamed me for his actions. When he told me that he was pushed in by a red-haired girl, it was then that I realized why he was angry with me." Akane now understood everything. "So he was the one who challenged you all the time and when you were picking on Pchan, you were only protecting me from Ryouga's perversity. Gomen nasai Ranma, if I would have known about all this, I would never have hit you nor would I have called you a pervert." Akane's tears came again. "Doomo arigatoo." She said, throwing her arms around Ranma. He in turn put his arms around her and held her tightly. "Gomen nasai Akane, I let my honor get in the way of telling you the truth." Akane knew that they would continue skulking if the mood didn't change .

It was Akane's fault he was in her tent crying. She had to come up with some way to reverse the mood they shared. It took a moment, but Akane came up with a way to ease his pain as well as her own. They would still share a mood, but not one of sorrow. To Ranma's surprise Akane started to giggle. "Nani yo, Akane?" It took her a minute to stop laughing enough to explain. "You...your shirt is wet and now I am too. Here." Leaning back, she unbuttoned his shirt and pulled his tank top over his head. She than returned to his arms. Feeling the sudden rush of cold Ranma yells, "Dammit Akane! Now you're wet and making me cold." She leaned back and smiled seductively and whispered, "Than do something about it...go ahead, I know you want to...or are you afraid." Ranma's eyes went wide. He knew what she meant by that, but she was still in the mood? Now? "Ranma...please yourself...and...please me." Her voice had a hint of sarcasm in it, but Ranma could tell she was extremely serious. "But...but, I thought...the whole thing with Ryouga ruined the mood..." **Wait a minute...she just offered herself to me...how...how could I deny her how could I deny myself?** "You have absolutely no idea how long I have waited for this day to come, Ranma...please...make me yours." As Ranma leaned forward to kiss her, she leaned back slowly, not letting him touch her lips, not yet. They leaned closer and closer to the ground until she was laying down on her back with Ranma on top of her. Kissing passionately, Ranma felt himself lose control. His hand slowly ventured from it's point of origin, her hips, onto the buttons of her shirt, opening them. Not breaking the kiss, he pulled her shirt off her arms and threw it aside. It was as though they knew what to do. It was instinct, their bodies took control. Breaking the kiss for the moment, Ranma raised himself slightly. "I...love you, Akane." He said. "I love you...too, Ranma." She replied, still trying to catch her breath. "Now come back, finish what you've started." Ranma obeyed and came back willingly. This time their kiss moved to a new level as Ranma slipped his tongue in her mouth. This surprised Akane at first but she shortly got the hang of it. **Damn, I didn't realize how good of a kisser he was!** They were taking it slow, gentle, this was the first time they had ever willingly gave in to each other and they both wanted to savor the moment. Now it was Akane's hands turn to linger about Ranma's body. Down his back, on to his side, to his stomach and to the draw string of his pants. Pulling the strings, she then moved her hands between his pants and his boxers. Ranma raised himself to allow Akane to remove his pants. After his were off, it was time for Akane's to come off. With one swift movement, he rolled so he was on the bottom, this made things easier for him. Her pants came off rather easy. After removing her bra and her panties, he began to feel up and down her body, learning every curve as his hands lingered to places he would have never dared to touch before. Akane never knew that Ranma's hands could bring her so much pleasure. He rolled back over so he was on the top allowing Akane could take off his boxers. They continued to kiss and softly play with eachother's bodies and soon they were one...[UM...heh heh heh... naughty naughty **_** *_* ^_^ ^_~]

That's enough of that! Ch. 4 ends
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What a way to end a chapter huh? Anyway, I'm not very good at writing hentai material besides I want to keep my story as clean as possible (hehe yeah right as if I could do that). If I do have a hentai part in a story it is probably the work of one of my friends or myself in an extremely perverted mood. I would like to say THANK YOU to my friend Angie for writing about half of this chapter. I was so stuck and had no idea what to do, until she came over for the night and sat in front of my computer and just typed her ass off. I put my ten yen into this chapter too as if you can't tell. Angie and I have two different styles of writing and reading through it you could probably tell what was written by or corrected by me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Chapter five:"Why are you in such a good mood today?"

The next morning Akane felt a slight chill that made her stir. She had almost forgotten where she was until she moved her arm. As soon as Akane felt the warmth of Ranma's body, she moved as close to him as she could get without laying on top of him. Laying her head on his chest, she heard his soft heart beat. **Wait until Ukyou and Shampoo hear of Ranma's true feelings for me, they're gonna flip! I do feel sorry for Ukyou though, that bitch Shampoo however can rot in hell for all I care! I wonder what dad and Mr. Saotome will say...but than again how would they know? Mr. Saotome and dad would have no objection to what happened last night, after all they were the ones that tried to get us to screw around in the beginning. My life with Ranma will be rough, but I wouldn't have it any other way! A normal life would be too boring.** No one else mattered in Akane's world, not now, not with Ranma by her side. **Even if last night does result in me having a child, we could manage. We've been through so much together how could this possibly make it anymore hellish? Shit, if I have my way about it, last night was only the beginning! Last night was the most pleasurable night I've ever had, even though the first shove really hurt. Damn I didn't think Ranma could...** Her thoughts were interrupted by Ranma moving under her. "Ohayo Ranma, sleep well?" He opened his eyes and smiled. "How could I not? Damn that was great!...anyway, how long have you been up?" "Not too long. I woke up freezing my ass off!" Ranma laughed. "That's what you get for falling asleep first!" "What about you, aren't you cold?" "Nah I'm used to it. Are you still cold?" Akane nodded. Without a word, he pulled her on top of him, than rolled over, laughing. "This better?" Akane just laughed. "Y...you're heavy!" With the combination of her laughter and Ranma's weight she could hardly get the words out. "You didn't say that last night, now did you?!!" He lifted himself up so he wouldn't crush Akane. "Don't!! You're warm! You're keeping me warm too!" Akane pulled him down and wrapped her legs around him so he couldn't break free unless he used force. "Does this mean last night wasn't enough for you?!" Akane started laughing again. "Damn straight boy!" "A little hard to please aren't we. I mean goddamn girl, I thought you at least would be thankful. I've never heard anyone moan that loud before." Akane continued to laugh. **Damn, why am I acting like this? Is it from last night.** "Was I really so unsatisfying to you?" Ranma felt as though he had let her down and it showed in his voice. "No, no that's not what I meant. What I meant to say was that you were very satisfying, Ranma I just want more." This made Ranma laugh again. Still laughing, they kissed each other swiftly, passionately, breaking slightly at each breath. **No matter how much I would love to satisfy her right now, we have to get to training...we don't have to, but that's the reason why we came. She has to learn something while we are here. I need her help with the dojo, that is the only true reason she must learn, but how to get her to do so without a fight.** After a minute, Ranma stopped. "Release me." Not asking why, Akane moved her legs to release him. He got up without a word and stood next to the tent flap. "Where the hell do you think you're going?" Ranma knew she wouldn't like his answer, 'C'mon Ranma, would you really rather fight?' "Akane, no matter how much I'd rather not say it, we have training to do." "Isn't this training enough?" "You know what I mean Akane, I mean MARTIAL ARTS TRAINING not our sex lives. Now, join me for a bath?" He offered her his hand. Akane just looked at him as if she was surprised at what he was asking. "Isn't mixed bathing immoral?" Ranma smiled at this one. "Who'll ever know? Besides isn't what we did last night immoral?" Akane knew someone would eventually find out and she knew she'd be the one to spill it. "That's different." "Really? How so?" "We're going to be married aren't we?" "Yeah, but that would make the mixed bathing okay wouldn't it? I mean, how could mixed bathing be more immoral than love making?" Ranma knew he had beaten Akane in this argument. "All right, all right you win, I'm coming." She reached up her hand for him to help her up. Ranma pulled her close, he bent down kissing her neck and slowly moved to nibble her ear, than whispered. "Couldn't beat the Saotome quick wit, now could you?!" Ranma refused to let her go until she admitted defeat. "No I couldn't, not this time at least." He released her. She grabbed the top to her douhgi and put it on. "Why are you getting dressed, we're just going to the stream right outside?" "But that water is cold and will turn you into a girl." "What should that matter?" "Ranma no baka! You're no fun to me as a girl!" "I take it you want to find the hot spring then. All right, all right." He said putting on his boxers. "Okay!" Ranma had an evil grin on his face, Akane could tell he was up to something. He tapped her one the shoulder, "TAG! YOU'RE IT!!!" He yelled, as he dashed out of the tent and toward the direction of the hot spring. "DAMMIT RANMA!! That's not fair!!" Akane yelled, as she too dashed out of the tent and into the forest. "This is training Akane, remember that!" Ranma called over his shoulder. "Come on Akane, you can do better than this, you're moving too slow. I know you can run faster than this. That's one thing I've noticed with you, you don't do your best unless you're motivated. You must learn to tap into that energy on your own, without motivation or you will never be able to control it." Though Akane was quite a good distance away she heard every word.

Arriving the hot spring, he paused for one second to pull of his boxers and dove in. After he came up, he turned to see Akane arrive. She bent over panting. Seeing this opening he grabbed the opening of her gi and flipped her into the spring. Ranma busted up with laughter. She immediately popped back up. He expected her to come up yelling at him, but she came up laughing. "Aren't we in a good mood today!" Akane said as Ranma joined in laughing. "Why wouldn't I be? I feel a lot better now that I've admitted my true feelings to you and because I now know that you feel the same way about me. Our love is true and there is nothing that can come between us Akane, nothing." He replied moving closer to her. "Not even the Chinese bimbo?" "Not even the Chinese bimbo's old ghoul for a grandmother." Ranma put his arms around Akane, so tenderly at first than tightened his grip as he pulled her nearer. At first his hands behaved themselves, but then they began to linger as Ranma and Akane kissed. [um...RANMA NO HENTAI !] This training mission was full of new surprises for both of them. Their feelings for each other were no longer a secret, they haven't argued since they arrived, they had sex the night before and now they were fooling around in the hot spring. This was only the second day and already so much has happened to them both, mentally as well as physically.

Okay that's it, the end of chapter 5
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okay...okay so my story really isn't as clean as it could be but hey I didn't go into that much detail did I? Ranma really is pretty naughty in my story neh? But that really isn't a bad thing...is it? You can probably understand my feelings of Shampoo. I really do hate her but I can tolerate her at times. Don't bitch at me because of my feelings please. Everyone has their character they hate in one way or another. My opinions are my own as are yours are your own so don't yell at me for having a different opinion. Nabikchan ^-^
