Disclaimer: As you all know I do not own any Ranma characters, they are owned by Rumiko Takahashi and Viz Company, and as we all know Ranma and Akane belong to each other.

Ok so this is an A/U so I’m not going to respect the time line. This Ranma is much powerful cause all he knew since he has one year is martial arts actually is surprising he knows how to talk.

What if Nodoka died one year after Ranma was born, so Ranma had to start his intense training at the age of one.

Fist Chapter

“Come on boy do you think with these punches are you going to do any harm” .Actually the power this boy had was enough to break a concrete wall with a simple blow, but Ranma wasn’t fast enough to get trough his father defense. Four years have passed since Nodoka died since that terrible day he had been training on the road with his father, if someone who sell you for food or throw you into a pit of hungry cats when you are only four could be called a father. Ranma is now a 5 year old boy and quite an impressive martial artist.

“Give it to me or I will hurt you pop”

“I won’t, if you want it come on and take it”

Ranma was trying his hardest, but he knew even if he was a good martial artist, he didn’t have his father level yet, and it would be impossible to him to get what he want, but even if he had that knowledge he wouldn’t be quitting know.

It all end with a final blow of Genma given after Ranma had made him mad when he gave him a kick on the ribs.

Ranma does have a great kick, he is now unconscious but if he wakes up he will try to take it until he succeeds, if he gets this letter I could start forgetting of joining the schools.

Ranma woke alone in the forest where he have fight with his father, he gas going to get his letter no matter what, but he then realize something was missing, his father wasn’t there neither his stuff, so he turn looking alt all directions but there was no trace of him anywhere. Ranma decide to wait where he was until Genma came back so he start to do some katas, after waiting for three hours he was tired and hungry so he went for his backpack ,where he has put some cookies some nice lady had given him when they were in the last town, but when he introduce his hand in the front pocket of his backpack he didn’t find the packet ok cookies he only find a sheet of paper, Ranma look at the paper curiously it seem like his father writing.

So he started reading it

“”Hi Ranma I’ve decide that you need a lot more training, your knowledge of the anything goes martial arts is complete, but as our school said we must combine other schools and make our own version, I decide of seeing how poorly you have fight that we must separate until you’re ready to seriously fight me, you need to improve your skill so go on and learn other techniques, I must warn you, don’t come looking for your mothers letter before you are ready or I will be in the sad position of burning it, If I ever crossed path with you I will destroy it so do not give your family name to anyone and do not say why you’re not with your parents, keep training I’ll meet you in a secret location which is write in the envelopment I put inside your pack, don’t read it until you’re fifteen years its a matter of honor, even if you read the letter, it wont matter I wont be there until you turn sixteen. I’ll see you on eleven years boy, luck and train hard. Oh yeah I almost forgot I take your cookies and money ,I thought you’ll have to learn how to survive by your own the sooner ass possible.””

When Ranma finished reading the letter he had tears in his eyes but not of sorrow, he was angry he would give a lesson to his father, he would train and become the greatest martial artist the world have ever seen, he will obtain his mothers letter, the only thing he had of her, the one his father never let him read. The only thing his father let him know the letter said it was that her mother wish he become a great martial artist and that was the only reason he keep training, no matter what his father did to him, but know it was no longer for his mother, he wanted what it was his ,the letter was write to him and he will have it. The only other thing he had of his mother was a beautiful undergarment for the hair, it has flower shape, but he was a boy and he couldn’t use it , it was a shame but he keep it always with him.

“Hi, why are you crying?”

“Who are you?”

Second chapter

“Hi, why are you crying?”

“Who are you?”

A year have passed since the day Ranma was abandoned, he have been in a lot of dojos or temples since then he had learn a lot of new styles as well as techniques, more than once he had been asked to stay cause young Ranma was a well educate and great martial artist boy. The first three months he had been in a temple, where a monk called Minoru had taught him the style of the school that was practiced there, the only one who had taught Ranma everything since he was a baby was not a great model, Ranma decided to be just like monk Minoru, Ranma saw him as a paternal figure and Minoru care for Ranma as a son, even if the others monks were nice to him Minoru really treat Ranma as his own son, he tell him not to when he did wrong and embrace him when needed,

It was really hard for both of them when Ranma mastered every technique that Minoru and the others monks taught him, so Ranma decide he needed to go and learn more so he will be able to defeat his father when the time came. Minoru ask him to stay and have a normal life in the monastery, Ranma promise on his honor that he will return when he had accomplished his quest, Minoru knew he will return one of the things he knew about Ranma was that the kid had a great sense of honor.

“My name is Ranma and yours”

The girl was like Ranma high, she had brown eyes and her hair was between black and blue.

“I’m Akane”

“Why were you crying?”

“I twist my ankle and I can’t get home”

“What if I carry you to your home?”

“Are you sure?”

“But my house isn’t near and it’s raining”

“Sensei Minoru told, it’s a martial artist duty to help those in need, and you seem to be in need”

“You’re a martial artist?” Akane said with a sudden smile in her face

“Yes, are you a martial artist?”

“Hai my father used to train me before my mother died” This was said with watery eyes

“I’m sorry”

“Don’t worry”

“So I’ll be honored to escort a fellow martial artist to her home so let’s go”

Ranma took Akane in a piggy ride from the park to her home, they talk all the way to Akane´s house, Akane was quite surprised when Ranma told her he was camping in the park so that was reason he was there even if it was raining and that he had been almost anywhere, when they finally got home a girl of what seems like nine years old open the door and welcomed them home.

“Akane oh we were all very worried”

“Don’t worry onechan I’m fine, Ranma brought me home, Ranma I want you to meet my sister Kasumi, Kasumi he is my new friend Ranma”

“Hi, nice to meet you”

“Hello thanks for bring Akane home”

Then a girl of 7 years enter the room.

“Hi Akane, why is a boy carrying you?”

“Oh my, I almost forgot could you bring Akane to the living room”

“Sure but where it is”

“Follow us”

There they find a man with long and black hair and an old gi, who was crying like a baby.

“Father Akane is home”

“Oh my baby”

And he ran to hug Akane, it’s a shame he didn’t notice that her daughter was been carried by a young boy so the boy was crushed by a hug between the man and the one who he carried.

“Dad I think Ranma can’t breathe” The man back off and saw he was hugging a young boy

“May I ask who are you?” Said the man

“Yeah I’m curious to” said the middle sister of the Tendo family

“My name is Ranma and I’m a martial artist”

“He brought me home dad”

Third Chapter

“He brought me home dad”

“Why did he have to bring you home?” The middle sister ask

“I hurt my ankle when I was practicing at the park”

“Oh my poor baby is hurt and she might be sick”

“Don’t worry dad, I’m fine, Ranma carry me all the way home”

“Thanks for bring my baby home”

“It was my pleasure sir, I had a great time talking to your daughter”

“Do you wish to eat with us”

“I don’t want to be a problem sir”

“Of course you’re not a problem”

“Come on Ranma you told me you haven’t eat in a few days and onechan make the greatest food”

“Well I’ll be honored”

“Ok know Akane lets see your ankle” Said the older sister

“How it is?”

“It looks good, just rest and no more katas for at least two days”

“But kasumi”

“No buts Akane”

“Hai”

At the table they were all surprise at the speed Ranma ate, Suddenly Ranma notice they were looking at him.

“Gomen, I never eat such delicious food and I think for a moment I forgot about my manners”

“I told you Kasumi make the greatest food”

“Son eat as much as you want”

“Arigato sir”

“So why were you at the park?”

“Hmm please excuse me but which is your name”

“Nabiki”

“Oh yeah sorry, I was returning to my tent when I saw Akane”

“Tent?”

“Yes Ranma is a martial artist and he lives on the road”

“Don’t you want to tell your fathers where you are?”

“I don’t have parent’s sir”

“Oh my”

“So you are living by yourself?”

“Yes sir”

“Well it sounds economic”

“Ranma do you wish to stay here”

“I really appreciate the offer but I must look for dojos so I could continue my training”

“You must already have seen the dojo, so what do you think if you stay here for a while and I train you, are you ok with it”

Ranma saw the look on Akane eyes, one of the things Akane had told Ranma when they were under the rain was that Akane´s father refuse to keep teaching her the art after her mother had die.

“I’ll be honored but, I can’t agree to it if Akane doesn’t train with us”

Soun Tendo was surprised by this statement but when he look the happiness in Akane´s eyes, he knew he had make a mistake when he stop training her.

“Akane, do you wish to train with us?” He ask even if he already knew her answer

“Yes” Akane said almost in a scream of joy

“Ok so when Akane gets better we start training”

Ranma stay with the Tendos for 3 months it seem it was the time he was able to stay in one place, well that’s what he taught even if his training with Soun had finished in two months, he had stayed other month cause his heart resist to leave just like when he was at the temple. Ranma had found a real friend in Akane they told each other there secrets,

Ranma even told her why he was training. Both Ranma and Akane cry when it was time for Ranma to leave, they made an agreement to write each other and then Ranma left the Tendo dojo and Nerima.

Fourth Chapter

Akane:

Hi ,I know it had pass time since my last letter, I’m really sorry but I wasn’t aloud to send letters at the village, I know the amazons could be kinda well I wont even say it, but they are great warriors ,you couldn’t imagine how much things I have learn this three months and I have made two new friends, the closer I can pronounce there names in Japanese are Shampoo and Mousse, Mousse chase Shampoo claiming he love he,r weird don’t you think, I told him I’ll help him to make shampoo notice him, but here is kinda difficult if you’re a man and you beat a girl you most marry her and if you’re a girl she will have to kill you, I cant imagine which is worse and don’t worry, I don’t have to marry anyone, the elder gave me immunity at the village so they wouldn’t attack me and I was treat like an Amazon male, this wasn’t so great I had to cook and serve the woman all day, not that its bad to serve a woman it bothers me serve anyone, don’t come thinking that I do not respect women, I still remember the punch you gave me when we were six and I told you I did not fight girls, I think it still hurts, well if anything good came of here is that I respect and feared women more, but it wasn’t all that bad ,in the nights elder Cologne would thought me a new technique, I was sad to leave Shampoo and Mousse but I’m glad I can write to you again. I hope you’re ok, I miss you, you can write at the direction write at the end of the letter , I’m going to stay at least two months there ,people tell its a great dojo, I’m going there now. See you later.

Say hi to everyone and give this coins to Nabiki please, I don’t think she has this type of coins yet.

Ranma

Ranma:

Hi I’m glad you’re okay the village sounds like a place I would like to be, just joking but I’m glad you make new friends, although they have estrange names but well you said it was the form it was pronounced in Japanese, for the other thing you said, I didn’t hit you that hard you wake up very quickly ,ok you might be in a black out for an hour or two but I already apologize for that ,and in my defense you do learned the lesson. Here is all good well in school we make Romeo and Juliet, I wish I could be Juliet but all of them thought I could make a great Romeo, I wish someday I could be Juliet. Dad is still teaching me the art and I’m training hard as I promise, but my friends thinks is weird for me to practice the art do you think is somehow wrong? Am I a tomboy? Those are the things that are now in my head. I hope to see you soon, I miss you to. See ya

Oh Nabiki said thanks for the coins she said she now have a great collection thanks to you, do you think she will be ever tired of the money?

Akane

Kane:

Hi, thanks for the letter I hope you are okay, At last I mastered this school, I taught I will have to leave before I have it right, my time was finishing the second month and nothing went right but now its all ok. The sensei was very kind they even ask me to stay, I wish I could say yes and have a family like you, I wish for a normal life but those are the things you must quit for the art. If only my mother had live do you think I would have a normal life? Even if it is I will have never met you, so may be it was all worth it.

Do you think it’s possible that in some other universe my mother didn’t die and I have the chance to meet you? If that happen sure we most be the best of friends, like we are now right? .Answering your questions, I’m sure you were a great Romeo and that if in the future you played Juliet you will be the best Juliet the world had ever seen. I don’t think its anything wrong if you practice the art, I´ve met a lot of girls who practice it and they’re great just like you, ok I’m glad this is a letter so you wont hit me but yes you’re a bit of a tomboy but I like you that way and I know your family loves you for that just like me. And to answer your last question no I don’t think Nabiki is going to lose her interest in money any time soon, but that’s what makes Nabiki what she is and we like her for what she is, as we like you for what you are, oh and give this coins to her a man gave them to me when I told her I had a friend who collects them., I hope to see you soon. I miss you. See ya

Ranma

A ten year old Akane was walking home it was her birthday and she was sad that her family didn’t seem to remember, even Ranma have forgot about it, since he know him, he always send something a present to her they were always there the day before her birthday, he said he like to be the first one to congratulate her but this year nothing came, she didn’t want the present she only wanted to know that her friend remember her. She have had a terrible day it seem like no one in the school remember it was her birthday and when she woke up that morning not even Kasumi remember it. She enter the house quite depressed and bump into someone, She look up and saw a pair of blue eyes looking down at her.

Fifth chapter

She looks up and saw a pair of blue eyes looking down at her.

“Who are you?”

“I thought after the long trip you could at least tell who I was”

“Ranma?”

“The one and only”

Suddenly the only thing Ranma could see was Akanes hair and he was in need of air.

“Kane can’t breath”

“What?”

“Cant breath” It was said by a colorful Ranma, who would think people actually be blue.

“Oh sorry” And Akane stop the hug

“Thanks”

“What are you doing here?”

“Well as you know I wanted to be the first one to say happy birthday”

“What?”

“Well it’s your birthday isn’t it?”

“Oh yeah but how do you know you’re the first one to say it”

“Well, I convince your family not to tell you before I did”

“They agree to it?”

“Has anyone told you anything about your birthday?”

“No”

“There you have your answer”

“But how do you convince them”

“I just ask the favor to your father and kasumi and pay nabiki”

“No one congratulate me”

“Nabiki gave me a discount”

“So you make me think everyone forgot my birthday just because you wanted to say it first”

“Yes”

“Ranma no baka” Akane said with a huge smile in her face that showed that she was saying the opposite of what she felt.

“You’re welcome”

“I’m glad you’re here”

“Oh and here are your presents ”Ranma gave to Akane a little teddy bear and a undergarment for the hair which has flower shape, Akane look at it she hadn’t seen such beautiful thing before.

“Its beautiful Ranma where did you get it”

“It was my of my mother”

“But Ranma I can’t accept it”

“Of course you can”

“But it was of your mom”

“I know she will prefer someone used it than in my pack”

“But”

“I can’t use it, I’m a boy, and I wish for you to used it, I know that if my mother ever met you, she would had gave it to you and I know you will be looking for it”

“Wait here”

“Hum”

“Just wait here”

Akane came rushing down of the stairs with something shining in her hand

“Close your eyes”

“But Kane”

“Don’t you trust me”

“Yes but”

“No buts”

“Hai”

Ranma suddenly feel something hanging of his neck

“Perfect, now you can open your eyes”

Ranma open his eyes and look down, he saw what it seems like a collar it was a ying yang

“What”

“This was my mother, I wish you to have it”

“If you wish I keep the flower you most keep the collar”

“Hai”

“Mom used to tell me that in the collar was her heart and that if I used it she will protect me”

“Kane I can’t accept it”

“Ranma I want my mother to look for you, you need it more than me and I know that you’re already looking for me so, I need to know someone is looking for you, please keep it”

“Thanks”
