        It was a beautiful day in Japan the sun was shining, birds were singing all
was right with the world. Most people went happily about their day and enjoyed
the sun...Most people, unfortunately for one it was a typical day at the Tendo
Dojo....

        "Come back here you little jerk!" yelled Ranma as he ran down the hall. 
        "He better not be doing what I think he is." grummbled Akane as she headed
towards the stairs. "Ranma you leave my P-chan alone!!" she called angrily.
When she reached her room she dound he was not doing what she thought he was,
it was worse.
        Ranma was on his hands and knees feeling through the drawer trying to find
Ryoga who had ducked inside to escape him, he began pulling out its contents.
He stopped and looked at what he was doing. "This is Akane's..."        Behind him
Happosai chirped up. "Hurry it up Ranma we've almost got them all!" he turned
to see Happosai stuffing what he had removed into his bag with tears of joy in
his eyes. "Oh, Ranma I'm so proud today you truly become my deciple!" he said.
        "Hey, you give those back!" said Ranma angrily. 
        "You want them all to yourself?" said Happy with even more tears of joy.
Ranma froze up as the worst possible thing happened. 
        "RRRAAANNNMMMAAAAA!!!" growled Akane. Ranma looked at her and yelped    "A-
Akane I-I can exsplain! Really!" he stuttered knowing it was far too late.
        Outside the quiet was broked by cries of pain and torment. Then Ranma flew
out the window of the Tendo home with Akane's cry of "Ranma you Prevert!" 

        In side the room Ryoga looked around his surroundings as he panted from
narrowly avoiding Ranma. "Wait this is...underware? ... I'M IN AKANE'S
UNDERWARE DRAWER!!???" he thought frantically.
        Akane sighed as she watched Ranma pull herself from the koi pond. "Jerk." she
muttered. "KWEEEEEEEEEEE!" screamed P-chan from her drawer. She opened the
drawer and looked inside. "P-CHAN?!!" she cried seeing her pet twitching on
top of the clothes with blood erupting from his nose. "That jerk! What did he
do to you?" she cried as she cradled the animal...still for some reason she
felt relieved as she realised why Ranma was in her room, still he deserved it
for hitting P-chan. She looked around her room, "Who is going to clean up this
mess??!!" she ranted.
        "Stupid Ryoga.." grumbled Ranma as she pulled herself out of the koi pond.
Her mood went from bad to worse as a familiar voice came from behind her.
         "Son-in-law." said Cologne. "What do you want Goul?" said Ranma as he swung
at the old woman.
         "Cologne?" he wondered as he saw her, she was Cologne but something was
different...not right, she was wearing some kind of weird belt and her eyes...
        "Humph, Goul am I? mabey I won't help you then..." she said in her usual
playful calculating voice.
         "Since when do I need your help?" growled Ranma as he emptied a kettle of
hot water on his head. 
        "Oh such a foul mood today Son-in-law." Cologne cackled. 
        "Go away." grumbled Ranma.
         "Foolish boy I'm here to offer you a cure." smiled Cologne. She had Ranma's
attention. 
        "I won't marry Shampoo." he said defiantly. 
        "Not this time, I have another task for you. I would like you to give me a
small amount of your blood." she said. "And don't worry Son-in-law it is not
for some love potion or anything like that." she added seeming to know what
his next question would be. 
        "Alright Goul." said Ranma holding his arm out. Cologne Quickly jabbed his
Arm with a syringe and took what she wanted. Ranma winced and gritted his
teeth.
         Cologne smiled and tossed him a small package. "Place this in the water when
you bath and you'll never have to worry about changing in water again." she
said as she left. "A word of warning though, it will prevent you from
changing, but its effects can never be reversed, be sure this is what you
truly want." 
        "I know there is a catch but what?" said Ranma looking at the pouch in his
hands. He sat beside the bath shivering from dumping the water over his head
and looking at his female side in the mirror. He held the small jewel that was
in the package in his hands. "Lets see what happens." she said placeing it in
the water. It just floated at the top. "Nothing".said Ranma as he reached in
to pull it out. Suddenly there was a flash of light, And Then darkness.
        A shadowy figure emerged and looked down on Ranma. She pulled the jewel from
his grasp. "Heh see you soon 'groom'." she said as she went back into the
shadows.
        Genma-Panda walked into the bath and stopped he started to sweat. He turned
and walked out. In the hall Akane almost ran into him. "Is something wrong?"
she asked. Kasumi walked up and looked worried "Is the water heater broken
again?" she asked sweetly. She turned and saw the bathroom. "Oh my." she said.
        Meanwhile inside the Cat Cafe'...
        
        "You are sure this will work?" said Cologne. "He will be warry because of his
past exspieriences with my Shampoo." 
         From the shadows Two glowing white eyes looked at her. "His curiosity will
get the better of him."it said with a smile. 
        Cologne looked at the figure, "Could you stop with the shadowy figure rotine
Natsumikan?" she said. 
        "Oh your no fun any more Cologne It said as something glowed around its waist
until a small elderly Chinese woman dressed in Traditional Japanese clothes
appeared. "And how many times do I have to tell you to just call me Natsumi,
You make it sound like I'm a guy or something, and yes in a few weeks he'll be
begging to marry Shampoo." 
        "HeeHeeeHeehEeHehhhheee" cackled the two old trolls. 
        "Its been years since I've enjoyed a good cackle lets do it again." said
Cologne. 
        The two laughed again:"Hee heeehehehehehehhhHACK COUGH HACK HACKHACK COUGH!" 
        "We arent as young as we were twenty years ago." said Natsumi.
        
        Back at the Dojo...

        "Wake up boy!" said Ganma as he splashed his son with water. Ranma-chan sat
up Quickly.
         "GACK! COLD!" she spat. 
        "Listen..."Started Genma. 
        "Whad ya do that for?" gasped Ranma as she punched and then splashed him. 
        "Now I gotta go take a bath." she muttered. 
        Akane stood out in the hall. "Ranma...Are you Ok?" she asked. 
        "Uhh yea..." said Ranma as she edged her way around Akane. "Why is every one
acting so weird?" she muttered as she undressed in the bathroom. She stepped
into the tub. "AAAHHH. hot." she said. "What a weird dream I had..." she
thought Idly as she soaked for a moment before stepping out. Ranma stopped mid
step as she emmerged from the tub.
        Genma stood In the living room and looked down at his son. Suddenly a scream
came from the bathroom. Ranma sat up "Akane!" he yelled wakeing and sitting
upright. He looked at his father the panda, "What was that Pop?" he asked.
Genma sweat for a moment when someone came screaming down the hallway yelling.
        Ranma turned to see Ranma-chan burst stark naked into the room screaming "I
Can't turn back!!" Ranma looked at him\herself in shock.                Ranma-kun jumped
behind her father in fear. "Save me pop its the evil spirit! She's come back
for me!!" he cried. Then it hit both of them. "THE JEWL!" they said in unison.
