Jeffrey "OneShot" Wong Ranma 1/2: A day to remember 3 Editor's notes:You must read the first and second part in order to get what's going on. Otherwise, you'll just end up confused. (Opening scene:It's a beautiful Sunday morning. We are inside the Tendo's house where we see Kasumi and Nodoka are about to cook breakfast. Ranma, in female form, comes downstairs with Akane. Soun is brushing his teeth, walking back and forth around the porch. Nabiki is in the livingroom, reading a manga comic. She sees Ranma and Akane as they come down the stairs.) Nabiki:Ohiyo gozaimasu. How was your night? Ranko:(Rubbing the back of his neck)I guess I slept alright.(Turns to Akane) How about you? Akane:(Strectching and sleepily)Yeah, I guess I slept alright also. Nabiki:(Looking at Akane)You don't look it. Akane:(Yawning)Well....I did. (Last night in Akane's room) Akane:(Sees Ranko crying)Ranma, are you alright? Ranko:(Wiping his eyes)Me, of course I am. Akane:Were you crying? Ranko:(Defensively)No, why would(Sniff)I be crying? Akane:It's ok, Ranma. I know you're sad because you can't be with your mom. You don't have to hide it. Ranko:(Trying to hold back his tears)I'm......alright Akane:(Gets off her bed, hugging Ranma)I know you're not. Please, don't do this to yourself. (Ranko and Akane looks into each other's eyes. Ranko, unable to supress his tears, breaks down in Akane's arms.) Akane:(Still holding)Everything will be fine, Ranma.(Softly)Everything will be fine. (Akane holds onto Ranko, sympathetically. Never in her life has she ever saw Ranma cry. Slowly, the sobs die down into soft sniffs. After a few minutes, there was silence. Akane looks at Ranko and finds out that he fell asleep in her arms. She stays up most of the night, holding Ranko, not wanting to wake him.) Nabiki:Oh, I was just asking. Soun:(Taking the toothbrush out of his mouth)Nabiki, have you seen......the panda. Nabiki:No daddy, I haven't (Somewhere in China, two figures are running through the many rice fields) Kuno:(Bokken raised, running after Genma)Come back here you cad. Genma(Panda):(Thinking)I have to get out of here, all this water is keeping me from changing back. (Back at the Tendo's) Soun:Well, I'm going to go look for him. We haven't seen him for days. (Leaves) Akane:(Runs to catch up to Soun)I'll come along. Nabiki:(Calling out)Akane. Akane:(Turns around)Yes, Nabiki? Nabiki:I'll go instead. Akane:Are you sure? Nabiki:Yes. First, I have to do something. Tell Daddy to wait a minute.(Heads for the kitchen) Akane:Ok(Calls for Soun)Dad. Soun:What is it Akane? Akane:Nabiki wants to go with you. Just wait a minute. (In the kitchen) Nabiki:(Entering)Kasumi. Kasumi:Yes, Nabiki? Nabiki:I was wondering, where are you and Dr. Tofu going tonight? Nadoka:Yes, I forgot about that. Where will you two be going? Kasumi:I'm not to sure. I'll let him decide. Nadoka:Speaking of Dr. Tofu, is he cute? Kasumi:(Blushing)Mrs. Saotome. Nabiki:(Smiles)Oh yeah, she never saw him before. Kasumi, why don't you introduce her to him? Nadoka:I would really like to meet this man. He must really be cute. Look at how much you're blushing. Let's go see him now. Kasumi:(Really blushing)But we have to make breakfast. Nabiki:Not anymore. Kasumi:What do you mean? Nabiki:Daddy and I are going out to look for...the panda. Akane and Ranko are going out....shopping. Nadoka:(Surprised)Really? Ranko is going shopping? Nabiki:(Smiles)Yes...for some girl clothes. Nadoka:It's about time. She looks like a tomboy all dressed up in boy's clothes. Nabiki:Well, anyway, nobody's going to be home so you don't have to worry about making breakfast. Kasumi:That's true, but we haven't had breakfast yet. Nabiki:You and Mrs. Saotome can ask Dr. Tofu to breakfast. Nadoka:Kasumi, I would like to meet this nice young man....how about it? Kasumi:Well.....I guess I can do it. Nabiki:Then it's settled. Kasumi:Ok, we'll leave for Dr. Tofu's now. Nabiki:Well, I have to go now, maybe I'll see you two around town later. Nadoka:Bye Kasumi:Bye and thank you. Nabiki:No problem.(leaves the kitchen) (In the livingroom) Nabiki:I was wondering, are you two are going anywhere? Ranko:Like where? Nabiki:(Smiles)Like the mall. Ranko:I don't know. Maybe. Nabiki:Well anyway, I have to get going. Bye Akane. Bye Ranma, I'll see you later.(Leaves with Soun) Akane:Bye Ranko:Bye (Nodoka and Kasumi come out of the kitchen, ready to go out) Ranko:Where are you two going? Kasumi:We have decided to go visit Dr. Tofu. Nadoka:Yes, I want to see if he's cute. Kasumi:(Blushing again)Mrs. Saotome.(Turns back to Ranko and Akane) Well, anyway we'll see you later. Nadoka:I hope you find what you're looking for. Ranko:Ok. Bye Akane:Bye (Kasumi and Nadoka leaves. Ranko and Akane are the only ones home) Ranko:I wonder what my mom meant when she said I hope you find what you're looking for? Akane:I haven't the clue. Ranko:(Realizing)Wait a minute, who's going to make breakfast? Akane:(Smiles)I guess I will. Ranko:(Sweating)Let's go out and get some breakfast. I don't want you going through all that trouble just for me. Akane:It's no trouble at all. Ranko:Why don't you want to go out to breakfast? Akane:Because I want to make it just for you. Ranko:(Knowing that he won't win)I'll let you cook for me, but on one condition. Akane:And what will that be? Ranko:That I can watch. Akane:Really? Ranko:Yes....is it a deal? Akane:Of course, let's get started(Heads to the kitchen) Ranko:(Thinking)I hope I can catch her before puts something in that'll kill me(Sighs and heads for the kitchen) (At the hopsital) Ryoga:(Sitting up in his bed)So that's what happened? Ukyou:Yes. When you and that lech crashed into each other, you fell and hit your head. Ryoga:(Rubbing the back of his head)Well....at least that explains the bump. Ukyou:Does it hurt? Ryoga:Only when I touch it like this.(Touches the back of his head) Ouch! Ukyou:Ryoga, you're so silly. Ryoga:(Blushing).......... (Back at the Tendo's, Akane is busy cooking while Ranko watches intently) Ranko:Akane(Holds up a little bottle)What's this? Akane:(Sees the bottle)That's my secret sauce. Ranko:What's in it? Akane:If I told you, it wouldn't be a secret anymore.(Smiles) Ranko:Well, what's it used for? Akane:I put that into everything I make. Ranko:Maybe you shouldn't put it in....just this one time. Akane:But I put it in everything. Ranko:(Acts cute)Please. Akane:Ok. Ranko:Thanks. (They continue to cook) Ranko:Akane. Akane:Yes,Ranma? Ranko:Do you think I'll ever find the nannichuan? Akane:I wish I knew. Ranko:It's just that I don't know how much longer I can keep this up. Akane:Come on, it's not that bad. Ranko:Yes it is. My mom is here and I can't tell her that it's me. Akane:............ (We are now at Dr. Tofu's clinic were we see Dr. Tofu treating a patient with neck problems. Kasumi and Nodoka enter.) Dr. Tofu:(Eyeglasses fogging)Kasumi! (Snaps the patients neck) Kasumi:(Smiles)Hello. Dr. Tofu:What a coincidence seeing you here? Kasumi:I came here to introduce you to Mrs. Saotome, Ranma's mother. Dr. Tofu:Hello, Mrs. Saotome.(Takes her hand and kisses it) Nodoka:(Turns to Kasumi and whispers)My, he's very cute(Turns to Dr. Tofu) You can call me Nadoka. Kasumi:(Blushing and looking at Dr. Tofu)She wanted meet you after she found out we were going out on a date tonight. Dr. Tofu:We're going out tonight? Kasumi:Yes, you asked me out last night. Dr. Tofu:(Remembers)Yes, I remember. (Yesturday night, in Dr. Tofu's clinic. Kasumi enters to ask him out) Kasumi:Kobanwa Dr. Tofu:(Eyeglasses fog up)Kasumi! What a coincidence seeing you here of all places. Kasumi:(Giggles)Dr. Tofu, I came to return a book.(Hands the book to him) Dr Tofu:(Takes the book)Thank you. Kasumi:I also came here to ask you a question? Dr. Tofu:(Remembers what Nabiki said and calms down)Can I ask you something first? Kasumi:Yes, what is it? Dr. Tofu:(Takes a deep breath)Kasumi, will you go out with me? Kasumi:(Surprised)............ Dr. Tofu:I always wanted to go out with you but I never had the courage to ask. Kasumi:Of course I'll go out with you. Dr. Tofu:You will? Kasumi:Of course. Dr. Tofu:How does tomorrow night sound? Kasumi:It sounds great. I'll see you then. Dr. Tofu:Wait, didn't you have something that you wanted to ask me? Kasumi:(Smiles)I found my answer.(Leaves) Dr. Tofu:(Watches Kasumi leave and smiles)Thanks, Nabiki. Kasumi:I was wondering, where would you like to go tonight? Dr. Tofu:I never thought of that. Where would you like to go? Nadoka:(Interposes)How about the both of you go to the movies. Kasumi:That sounds great, but where should we go to eat? Dr. Tofu:We can goto Pour Deux, this restaurant that serves freach food. It's formal so that means we'll have to get dressed up. Afterwards, we can go to the amusement park. (The conversation between Nabiki and Dr. Tofu before Kasumi arrived) Dr. Tofu:But where should we go? Nabiki:You two should go to this restaurant called Pour Deux. It serves the greatest french food. You'll have to get dressed though. After that, you can goto the amusement park. Dr. Tofu:That sounds great. Thanks Nabiki. Nabiki:No problem. Don't forget what I told you. Dr. Tofu:Ok (On the streets of Japan, we see Kasumi walking down the street. She seems quite happy.) (Back to Dr. Tofu's) Nabiki:So you understand? Dr. Tofu:Yes I do. I'll ask her out tonight. Nadoka:Movie, dinner, and the amusement park. That's going to be one great night. Kasumi:(Smiles)Yes, it is. Dr. Tofu:(Smiling and looks down at patient, neck bent)I'm sorry about that. It won't happen again.(Snaps it back) Nadoka:Dr. Tofu, would you like to go to breakfast with us? Kasumi:That's if you're not busy. Dr. Tofu:(Looks at Nadoka then turns to Kasumi)I probably won't be. It seems that every time you come by, nobody comes by for the rest of the day. I wonder why? Kasumi:Maybe that's just coincidence. Dr. Tofu:Most likely. I be with you in a minute. Kasumi:Does that mean you can come to breakfast with us? Dr. Tofu:Yes. I just have to close up. Kasumi:We'll be waitng outside(They both leave) (Outside the clinic) Nadoka:You have yourself quite a remarkable, young man there. Kasumi:(Blushing)Thank you Nadoka:Now, where would you like to goto breakfast? Kasumi:Let's goto Ukyou's. Nadoka:Ok (We are at the Tendo's. Ranko and Akane have finished making breakfast and are sitting at the table, ready to eat. Ranko is sweating) Akane:(Notices Ranko sweating)Is there something wrong, Ranma? Ranko:(Sweating)Me....no, not at all. Akane:Good, lets eat.(Gives Ranko a bowl of god knows what)Here you go. Ranko:(Thinking)I didn't see Akane put anything in that seems deadly. I guess one small bite won't burt. (Ranko looks at the bowl in his hands. He then reluctantly takes a bite. after a few seconds of chewing, his eyes widen.) Akane:Ranma, how does is taste? Ranko:It tastes great!(Starts eating faster) Akane:Do you really mean it? Ranko:(Sincerely)Yes, I do. I never tasted anything this good before. Akane:I'm so glad you like it.(Starts eating also) Ranko:(Takes seconds)This is delicious. What did you put in this to make it taste so great? Akane:Nothing. I didn't even put in my special sauce. Ranko:Maybe that's why? Akane:What? Ranko:Maybe it was the sauce that made all the stuff that you cooked taste... ....well.......not as good as this. Akane:Do you really think so? Ranko:(Takes thirds)Yes, I do. Akane:Fine, I won't use it anymore then. (Ranko continues to eat. Akane watches Ranko as he eats ravenously) Akane:(Thinking)Ranma, how I've waited to hear you say that you like my cooking. Thanks, Ranma.(Continues to eat) (We are now at Ukyou's where we see Kasumi, Nadoka, and Dr. Tofu. The store is closed) Kasumi:I wonder why Ukyou's place is closed. Nadoka:Maybe she wanted to take some time off. Dr. Tofu:Is there anywhere else we can go? Kasumi:Well, we can goto the Nekohanten, but that's a long way off. Dr. Tofu:Well, I don't mind the walk. How about you, Mrs. Saotome? Nadoka:I don't mind either. And please, call me Nadoka. Kasumi:Ok, we'll go to the Nekohanten. (We are now at the hospital. We see Ryoga and Ukyou.) Ryoga:(Weakly)Ukyou, I really appreciate you being here to look after me, but I'm alright. You can go back to work. Ukyou:No, I want to stay. I want to make sure you're alright. Ryoga:(Tries to get up)You don't have to. I'm ok. Really. Ukyou:Then try to sit up. (Ryoga tries, but it was futile. He falls back onto the bed, depressed) Ukyou:See. I told you. Ryoga:When I get better, I'm going to kill Happousai for doing this to me. Ukyou:Same here. Ryoga:What did he do to you? Ukyou:He grabbed me. Ryoga:Oh. Ukyou:Don't worry. When you get better, we can both kill him. I'll hold and you can hit. (Both of them laugh. Ryoga cheers up at the thought) Ryoga:(Stops laughing)Ukyou. Ukyou:(Also stops laughing)Yes, Ryoga? Ryoga:Thanks. I really needed that. (Ukyou smiles) (We are now somewhere in Tokyo. We see Happousai, jumping from roof to roof to avoid Kodachi, who is in hot persuit) Happousai:(Jumping over hoops thrown by Kodachi)Sheesh, don't she ever quit? Kodachi:(Throws some darts)Come back here! Happousai:(Jumps over darts)I have to lose her. I'm getting awfully tired. (Happousai jumps down a chimney hole. Luckily, there was no fire in the fireplace. He lands and runs through the livingroom and out the front door. Kodachi, seeing Happousai jump down a chimney, tries to follow, legs first and ends up getting stuck. She looks down towards the ground and sees Happousai running through the streets) Kodachi:(Still stuck)I'll get you once I get free! Happousai:(Looks up towards the top of the chimney)That's if you can find me (Runs off) (We are now at the Nekohanten, where we see Shampoo and Mousse talking. Kasumi, Nadoka, and Dr. Tofu enter and they overhear the conversation) Mousse:(Sweeping the floor)Shampoo. Shampoo:What is it, Mousse? Mousse:Would you like to go out with me tonight? Shampoo:Ok, but where we go? Mousse:............... Kasumi:(Interposes)Dr. Tofu and I are going to the movies tonight, you two can join us if you'd like. It'd be like a double date. Shampoo:That sounds fun, but where we eat? Mousse:(Stops sweeping)Yes, where can we eat? Kasumi:Well, after the movies, we're going to goto Pour Deux for dinner. Shampoo:What Pour Deux? Dr. Tofu:It's a fancy restaurant that serves french food. You'll have to get dressed up if you want to go. Afterwards, we plan on going to the amusement park. Mousse:That sounds great. Shampoo:Yes, it does. Mousse:So, do you want go out with Kasumi and Dr. Tofu tonight? Shampoo:Yes. Mousse:(Turns to Kasumi)When should we leave for the movies? Dr. Tofu:We should leave around six, that should give us plenty of time for dinner and for the amusement park. Mousse:Six it is. Shampoo:(Notices that everyone is still standing)Shampoo sorry for keeping you busy. Please have seat. (Kasumi, Nadoka, and Dr. Tofu take their seats and order their food) (Somewhere in China. We see Genma, in panda form running for his life as Kuno chases with his bokken) Kuno:(Bokken raised)Come back here so I can thrash you within an inch of your life! Genma(Panda):(Running)Growl (Splash) (Genma, trips and falls into a spring with a bamboo pole sticking up from the middle. Somehow, Genma stumbled into the Jusenkyo without realizing it. Kuno runs up to the side of the spring and waits for Genma to surface. Genma does, but he is now in human form. He fell into the Nannichuan) Kuno:(Shocked)Mr. Saotome! What are you doing here?!? Genma:(Gets out of the spring)I'm here to do this!(Punts Kuno) (Kuno gets launched into orbit) Guide:(Appearing out of nowhere)Hello. Genma:(Jumps back into the spring, realizing that he's naked)Who the heck are you? Guide:(Holds up the sign 'Jusenkyou')I am the guide of the Jusenkyo. Genma:But the Jusenkyo is in China. Guide:Yes, they are. Genma:That must mean I'm in China.(Scratching the back of his head)Funny, I don't remember crossing a body of water. Guide:Is there anything I can help you with, sir? Genma:What spring am I in right now? Guide:(Holding up the sign 'Nannichuan')You in nannichuan spring. It have a very tragic story of a man who drown there....... (Back at the Tendo's) Ranko:(Stuffed)That was delicious. Akane:Thank you, Ranma. Ranko:I hope you could cook again. Akane:I'll be glad to. Ranko:Come on, let's clean up. (Ranko and Akane both pick up the dishes and goes to the kitchen to clean them.) Akane:(Washing dishes)Ranma. Ranko:(Drying dishes)What is it, Akane? Akane:Do you want to go do something after we finish with the dishes? Ranko:Like what? Akane:Like what Nabiki said earlier, goto the mall. Ranko:If that makes you happy, sure. Akane:Thanks, Ranma. (They continue to wash the dishes until Soun and Nabiki comes home) Nabiki:(Taking off her shoes)Hello, is anybody home? Akane:(Coming out of the kitchen)Yes, but it's only me and Ranma. Did you find Mr. Saotome? Soun:No we didn't. We checked everywhere. Nabiki:Yeah, all the food places that is. (Akane giggles) Soun:(Starts crying)How can you make fun of your own father?(Cries more) Nabiki:Relax daddy, we were just having fun. (Soun stops crying and goes to the livingroom) Akane:Did you eat yet? Nabiki:Yes, how come? Akane:It's just that I want you to try something I made. Nabiki:I'm full. Akane:Ranma said it tasted delicious. Nabiki:Really? Akane:Yes he did. Nabiki:That's odd. Akane:What's odd? Nabiki:That he'll like your cooking. Akane:He said it was this sauce that I always put in my food that makes it taste bad. That's all. Nabiki:So that must mean that you didn't put it in the food you made. Akane:That's right. Nabiki:Well, if I weren't full I would've tried it, but I am. Sorry. Akane:Well, maybe next time. Ranko:(Comes out of the kitchen)What are you two girls talking about? Akane:Oh, I was just asking Nabiki if she'd like to eat the food I made. Ranko:But I ate it all. Akane:I could always make more. Ranko:Well, if you do....make sure I'm hungry(Smiles) Akane:(Blushing)......... Ranko:Hey Nabiki, I was wondering if you'd like to goto the mall with us? Nabiki:Nah, you two can go ahead without me. Akane:Are you sure? Nabiki:I'm sure. Go ahead, have some fun(Thinking)Besides, I want them to be alone(Smiles) Ranko:Ok(Takes hold of Akane's hand)Come on, let's go. Akane:(Enjoying the soft touch of Ranma's hand upon hers)Fine. Bye Nabiki. Nabiki:(Waving)See you later. (Akane and Ranko both leave) Nabiki:(Calling out)Daddy. I have to go back out again. Soun:(Entering from the livingroom)Where are you going, Nabiki? Nabiki:I'm going to the the mall. Soun:What for? Nabiki:Oh nothing much. Soun:Fine, but be back soon. Nabiki:(Hugs him)Thanks daddy(Leaves) (After a few minutes) Soun:(Realizing)I'm all alone again. (At the Nekohanten) Nadoka:(Finishing her meal)That was delicious Shampoo:(As she walks by)Thank you Dr. Tofu:Well, I guess I better be heading back to work now. Kasumi:Do you really have to? Dr. Tofu:Yes. I've got a lot of patients who need me. Kasumi:Can we at least walk with you? Dr. Tofu:Oh sure. I'd really like that. (Dr. Tofu pays for the food. He and Nadoka, and Kasumi leaves.) Shampoo:Mousse. Mousse:What is it, Shampoo? Shampoo:Do you want to take a break? Mousse:What do you mean? Shampoo:Lets close the store and goto the mall Mousse:But what about the store? Shampoo:(Looks around)There no customers now. We close and just leave. We be back very soon. Mousse:I don't know about this. Shampoo:(Moves near Mousse)Shampoo want to goto the mall. Don't Mousse want to come with Shampoo also? Mousse:(Smiles)If you put it that way. Lets go. (We are now with Ranko and Akane, who are on their way to the mall) Ranko:Akane, I was wondering. Should I change back into a guy? Akane:Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt. Ranko:(Takes Akane's hand)C'mon, lets go find some warm water. (We are back at the hospital were we see Ryoga and Ukyou leaving through the front door. It seems that Ryoga healed fairly quick. All he has are several bandages wrapped around his head. Otherwise, he looks fine.) Ryoga:Ukyou. Ukyou:Yes, Ryoga? Ryoga:I was wondering if you'd like to go get some food. Ukyou:I guess that'll be okay. But I should get back to my shop soon....so I can open it up. Ryoga:Is there anywhere you'd like to go? Ukyou:You choose. Ryoga:How about we goto your store? We can kill two birds with one stone. Ukyou:That sounds okay with me. Ryoga:Great, lets go(Heads off) Ukyou:(Calling out)Ryoga, you're going the wrong way. (We are now at the mall where we see a slightly damp male Ranma and Akane walking from store to store. We also see Shampoo and Mousse at a different section of the mall. Nabiki is nearby, watching Ranma and Akane, who are unware that she's there.) Nabiki:(Notices Shampoo and Mousse)Well.....this is even better than I planned. (Nabiki walks off towards Shampoo and Mousse, making sure Ranma and Akane didn't spot her) Nabiki:Ohiyo. Mousse:Hello Nabiki, it's good to see you again. Shampoo:(Curious)Why Nabiki at mall? Nabiki:I was just looking around.....for clothes. Anyway, have you and Mousse decided on on going out yet. Mousse:Yes, we plan on going with Kasumi and Dr. Tofu to the movies. After that we're going to goto Pour Deux. Shampoo:After that, we goto amusement park. Nabiki:(Smiles)That sounds like one great double date. Mousse:(Looks at Shampoo)Yes, it does. Nabiki:Why don't you go ask Ranma and Akane if they'd like to join you? Mousse:That sounds like a good idea. But I'm not too sure Kasumi and Dr. Tofu would like that. Nabiki:I know my sister, she'll be glad to have Ranma and Akane coming along. Mousse:Then I guess we'll ask them whenever we see them. Do you know where they are at the moment? Nabiki:(Smiles)I'm sorry. I haven't the slightest idea. Shampoo:Why you so happy? Nabiki:I'm smiling at the thought that there might be a triple date tonight. Shampoo:Oh. Nabiki:Anyway, I have to get going now. It's been nice talking to you. (Turns to leave) Mousse:Likewise. We'll see you later.(Waves goodbye) Shampoo:Bye. (Nabiki walks off towards the other side of the mall, where Ranma and Akane are, making sure Shampoo and Mousse don't see her of them. She walks up to the couple) Nabiki:Akane. Ranma. Ranma:Hi Nabiki. I thought you had something else to do. Nabiki:I did. And I finished it awhile ago(Thinking)Just don't ask me what it is I was doing. Ranma:Oh. Nabiki:I was wondering. Do you plan on doing anything tonight? Ranma:Not that we're aware of. Why? Nabiki:Why don't you two goto the movies? Akane:That sounds like a good idea.(Gives Ranma a gentle nudge)What do you think? Ranma:That's pretty good idea. And afterwards we can goto Pour Deux again. I loved the food there. Nabiki:Wow, that's exactly where Shampoo, Mousse, Kasumi, and Dr. Tofu all plan on going tonight on a double date.....except they are all going to the amusement park afterwards. Akane:That sounds like a great idea. Do you think they would want us to go along with them? I don't really want to impose. Nabiki:I don't know. Why don't you ask them for yourselves? Ranma:We will....as soon as we see them. Nabiki:They're on the other side of the mall. Go on and ask them.(Smiles)I'm sure they won't mind a triple date. Ranma:They're here? Nabiki:Yeah. Akane:(Takes hold of Ranma's hand)Lets go ask them. Ranma:(Being dragged off)Thanks, Nabiki. (Nabiki stands there alone for a second, watching as Ranma and Akane both run up to Shampoo and Mousse. She smiles and then turns around and leaves the mall for home. About half way hom, she bumps into Ryoga and Ukyou, who were on they way to Ukyou's) Nabiki:Hi Ryoga. Hi Ukyou. What brings you two here? Ukyou:Hi Nabiki. Ryoga and I are on our way to my store. I haven't been around to open it up. Nabiki:Oh. Ryoga:She was in the hospital with me the whole time. Nabiki:Hospital? Ukyou:It's a long story. A very long story. Nabiki:I'd be glad to listen.(Smiles)Besides, I don't have plans till later tonight. (Together, Ryoga, Ukyou, and Nabiki all head towards Ukyou's store. We see Ukyou explain to Nabiki how she was chasing Happousei for grabbing her and how the little lech bumped into Ryoga on the roof. Ryoga then told her that he jumped on the roof when he heard some noises and was wondering what it was. Nabiki smiles when notices how Ryoga blushed when Ukyou finished the story by telling her how she picked Ryoga up on her back and ran for the nearest hospital.) Nabiki:Wow, that's one heck of a story. It's kinda weird though.(Looking at Ukyou)You were chasing Happousei through the entire country, never giving up chase. But when you see Ryoga hurt, you drop everything to take him to the hospital Ukyou:.................. Ryoga:(Blushing)............... (They continue on walking in silence. Nabiki notices that every here and there, Ryoga would look at Ukyou when Ukyou wasn't looking and vice versa. When they finally arrive at Ukyou's shop, Nabiki is the first to break the silence) Nabiki:i guess I better get goin' now. It was nice talking to you two. See ya later. Ukyou and Ryoga:(Both waving)Bye. (Ukyou opens up her store, and together, Ukyou and Ryoga enter) Ryoga:Thanks. Ukyou:For what? Ryoga:For helping me out like that. I really appreciate it. Ukyou:(Blushing)..................
