AN: Ranma's not mine yadda yadda yadda. Warning! Much pronoun confusion follows!

Chapter 4 - Of Love, Sex, and Violence.

Ranma awoke from his nap 3 hours later feeling refreshed. He looked over to Akane's futon and saw that she was still dead to the world. She was so out of it that she didn't even thrash about as per her normal sleeping habits. Ranma sat up and watched her sleep for a moment before getting up quietly to check on Yuki. The babe had already woken from her nap and watched Ranma with wide eyes as he approached. Ranma leaned over the crib and smiled. He placed a finger to his lips. "Shhh," he whispered. "Mommy's still sleeping. Daddy will take you out of there." Yuki smiled and gurgled at him, but made no loud noises. Ranma plucked her from her crib, grabbed a fresh diaper and wipes, and carried her downstairs.

He entered he kitchen to see Kasumi preparing lunch for the family. She was smiling and humming a nameless tune when he walked in. Ranma smiled. "Have a good time with Tofu last night Kasumi?" he asked. Kasumi just blushed in reply.

Ranma chuckled to himself as he changed Yuki. He finished the job in record time (you learn how to do this quickly when it seems you get all the "full" diapers), and sat her in her high chair with her teething ring to play with. He was content to just sit and watch the baby occupy herself as he let his thoughts wander. 'I just called Akane Yuki's "Mommy", and myself her "Daddy",' he thought. 'I've been having a bunch of thoughts like that lately. Wonder what it all means...'

He continued to ponder about these thoughts for a little while before he heard a crash and a familiar voice shout "Where the heck am I now?"

Ranma groaned when he heard Yuki start to cry. Honestly, why can't these people use the door? He picked her up and turned to glare at Ryoga. "You're at the Tendo dojo again P-chan," he snarled. "And you upset Yuki."

Ryoga had the decency to look ashamed, but that quickly turned to confusion. "Yuki? Who's Yuki?"

"Who do you think bacon breath? This girl in my arms is Yuki."

Ryoga looked at the babe as if seeing her for the first time. By then, Yuki's wails had decreased in volume, and she seemed to be more curious about who the newcomer was than afraid of him. She still clutched tightly to Ranma's shirt though. Ryoga leaned in closer and smiled at her. "Well hey there little girl," he cooed. He tried to tickle her feet, but Yuki pulled away and hid her face in Ranma's shoulder. This stranger was scarier than the girl with the purple hair. He had scary teeth.

Ryoga took a closer look at the child. "You know Ranma, she kinda looks like you," he commented.

"Really?" Ranma was perplexed. How could someone else's baby look like him?

Ryoga continued to stare at the girl, and then the severity of what he just said clicked. He growled. "Yeah, she looks like she could be your daughter!"

Ranma quickly caught onto what Ryoga was saying, and jumped back before the lost-boy could attack. "Easy Ryoga! Do you want to scare her again?"

Ryoga snarled. "Ranma you coward! Hiding behind a baby like that. So tell me, who is the mother? If it's Akane, I'll make you sorry you were ever born!"

Ranma looked at Ryoga through half-lidded eyes. "Yeah? And what would you do if it wasn't Akane's?"

"Then I'd kill you for being unfaithful to her!"

"I can never win with you can I Ryoga?" asked Ranma.

"Enough talk! Put down the baby so we can fight!" Ryoga started to advance. Ranma backed up, but managed to lead Ryoga towards the sink.

"Listen Ryoga, Akane and I found Yuki in a dumpster downtown! She's not related to either of us! we're just taking care of her until the orphanage can take her!" his hand drew back to the faucet, and he turned the cold water on.

"No more lies! We fight now!" shouted Ryoga. He started to charge, but was stopped in his tracks by a spray of cold water from the vegetable sprayer. An angry black piglet struggled to free himself from his clothes. Ranma sighed at the momentary reprise and put Yuki back into her high chair before turning back to help Ryoga. It was then that he noticed Kasumi was still in the room.

"Oh my!" came her usual response. "To think that all this time Ryoga was cursed as well."

Ranma grimaced. He'd forgotten Kasumi was there, and that she didn't know Ryoga was cursed. Ryoga had never changed in front of her after all. Now if only Akane would get a clue…

'Speak of the Devil,' thought Ranma as Akane staggered into the kitchen. She blearily eyed Ryoga for a second before her brain registered what he was.

"Oh, P-chan's here," she said. She picked him up and carried him over to the table. Ryoga promptly tried to snuggle up with her, but Akane was still too out of it to register his affections. She sat down, and turned to Yuki. She smiled. "Hey honey, you sleep well?" she cooed. Yuki smiled at her mommy and continued to chew on her teething ring.

Ryoga "buki-ed" at Akane. He looked up at her with big curious eyes, and then looked over at Yuki. Akane looked puzzled for a second, then figured the pig was asking about the baby. "That's right, you haven't met Yuki yet have you P-Chan?" Akane placed the pig on the table near Yuki. "This is Yuki, P-Chan. She's going to be staying with us for a while." Ryoga "buki-ed" in what he thought was a friendly manner at the child, but Yuki drew away and turned her head. "That's strange," said Akane. "Yuki is usually ok with strangers. Why is she afraid of P-chan?"

"Maybe it's because Ranma was holding her when Ryoga came in earlier," said Kasumi. "He seemed to be angry about something. Maybe he scared her."

"Ryoga? What does he have to do with anything?" asked Akane.

Ranma cringed. 'Oh, this is not going to be good…' he thought.

"Well, Ryoga turns into that pig when he gets wet like Ranma. He transformed right in front of Yuki. Babies are very observant you know. Didn't you know about his curse?"

Akane looked at her sister with wide eyes. She then silently stood, picked up the hapless pig, and left the kitchen for the furo. A few minutes later there was a scream, some muffled talking, some muffled yelling, and a crash as Akane sent Ryoga flying through the ceiling. Ranma winced at the sounds and turned to Yuki. "Take it from me kid," he said to her. "NEVER get Mommy mad."

Two hours later, Ranma were out for a walk in the park. Akane was still mad as hell over the entire P-chan thing, and decided to take it out on anything that moved, and a few things that didn't. She would yell at people, break things, and was currently making dust out of cinder blocks in the dojo. Ranma had never seen her so mad. He had managed to escape her wrath just barely by keeping close to the baby whenever he had to be near the vengeful girl, but had felt that it would be a good idea to get away from Akane for a while before she figured out Ranma knew about Ryoga's affliction, and really got mad.

So we find our hero, or since he was in female form at the moment, our heroine, walking through the park with Yuki in an old stroller. Ranma had started out the journey in male form, but that old bat down the road with the water bucket still managed to get him. Sometimes he wondered if she splashed him on purpose. Yuki sat up in her stroller taking in the scenery for most of the trip, but she soon started to fuss. Ranma leaned over to check her diaper (thankfully clean), and then pulled over at a bench to feed her.

It was a warm day, and there were many people at the park enjoying it. Ranma started to regret staying a girl, because some of the other women in the park would stop and ask questions about Yuki. Some of the questions she was asked about Yuki were easy, but then they became more frank. "Do you breast-feed her?" "What was the birth like?" "What was the sex like?" were some of the more embarrassing questions. Ranma knew she was beet red, but managed to get out that Yuki wasn't hers. After that, most people would just smile, congratulate Ranma on the adoption, and leave her alone (though, some seemed to be more embarrassed than Ranma about the questions they asked after that). Had Ranma been a guy at the time, he wasn't sure what kind of questions he would get.

Yuki finished her bottle, and Ranma started to burp her. It was then that he heard the most blood-curdling sound in all of existence.

"PIG-TAILED GIRL! AT LAST I HAVE FOUND YOU!"

Ranma groaned out loud as Kuno approached. The samurai wannabe had been quiet for the last few weeks, but it seemed as if he was just building up for something big. Currently he was dressed in his full samurai outfit, armour and all, with two katana sticking out of his belt. The fact that they were metal swords rather than his usual wooden bokken didn't escape Ranma's notice. She protectively held Yuki a little closer

Kuno bounded up to the bench at a speed that impressed Ranma considering the heavy armour he was wearing. Ranma glared at him. "What do you want Kuno?" she asked.

"I have come to inform you that my education at Tokyo University has been progressing smoothly," he answered. Ranma highly suspected that the only reason Kuno made it into such a prestigious school was because his family gave them a large donation, but said nothing of it. "I shall be entering my second semester come the end of the summer break, and I hope you would join me there."

Ranma groaned. Ever since Kuno had graduated from Furinkan, he had been on both hers and Akane's cases about getting married to them. Of course, he wanted to marry both girls at the same time. "Kuno, I told you last time you asked. I WILL NOT MARRY YOU!" Ranma punctuated her rejection with a brutal punch to the back of Kuno's head, but he recovered quickly.

"Surely you are just under that foul…Saotome's… spell…" Kuno trailed off in the middle of his latest tirade. He stared blankly at Yuki, having just noticed Ranma had been holding her. "Pray, who is that child you are holding?" he asked.

"Oh her? This is Yuki," Ranma replied. She then got a worried look on her face. "You're not going to want to marry her now, are you?

Instead of answering, Kuno just got an enraged look on his face. Ranma backed up a bit and held out one hand to defend Yuki from whatever crazy thing Kuno would try next. "So," he said. "Saotome has finally succeeded in forcing you to bear his offspring. I SHALL NOT ALLOW THIS TRAVESTY TO CONTINUE FURTHER!" He drew one of his swords, and turned to run towards the Tendo dojo, where his rival was surely waiting. He hesitated before running off. "Fear not Pig-tailed Girl!" he said. "I shall smite the foul cur in your honour for stealing your purity. And after we are wed, I shall love Yuki as if she were my own! Of course, we'll have to have another child so that my heir is not a bastard but…" He was cut off by a rather large boulder being dropped on his head courtesy of Ranma.

"Honestly, why does everyone think Yuki is my baby?" she asked to nobody in particular.

Ranma and Yuki returned to the dojo to find Akane collapsed in on the floor next to a pile of broken bricks 5 feet tall. There were also broken practice dummies strewn about, and many new holes in the walls. The redhead walked over and stood over her, making sure to keep Yuki on her hip, and in Akane's sight in case she decided she needed to hit something else. Akane just glared up at Ranma for a moment before she asked "Did you know about Ryoga's curse?"

"Yep. In fact it's my fault he is cursed. I accidentally knocked him into the spring."

Akane sighed. "You realize that if I could move my arms, I'd take Yuki away from you and knock you into next week, right?"

"I know. That's why I went for a walk."

Akane sat up. "Why didn't you tell me about him?"

It was Ranma's turn to sigh. He took a seat next to his fiancée. "I swore on my honour not to reveal his weakness to anyone. Of course that was before you made him a pet and he used my promise against me. After that, I tried to give you hints, called him "P-chan while he was in human form and the like, but you never caught on."

Akane groaned as she realised that Ranma was telling the truth, and all the pieces fell into place. "Fine, but if it ever happens again, you'd better tell me or you'll become the first living satellite to orbit the Earth."

Ranma was perplexed. "You mean you forgive me? Just like that? No mallet?"

"Yeah you dummy. I forgive you. I understand why you felt you had to do it, so I can't stay mad at you about it." Akane turned and smiled at the shorter girl. "Besides, Yuki seems to like it more when we don't fight."

"You noticed too huh?" Ranma looked at the little girl in her arms. "It's almost as if she's trying to hook us up as much as our fathers." They both laughed nervously at that comment, then turned their heads away in embarrassment. It was then that Ranma remembered some of her thoughts from earlier in the morning. "Say…" she started.

"Ranma! Akane! Lunch is ready!" called Kasumi from the house. Ranma was up and out of the dojo in a shot before Akane had the chance to ask her what was on her mind.

'Oh well,' thought Akane. 'I'll ask him about it after lunch.

AN: [Sally Field impersonation] You like me! You really like me![/Sally Field impersonation]

I got flooded with reviews within the first day after I last updated this story, all of them positive. I must say I was a bit overwhelmed. I meant to get this chapter out a long time ago, but there were a few things that delayed it. Some was laziness, I admit, but I also had to attend the funeral of my grandmother who died recently. So even though she never knew what the hell Ranma was, this is dedicated to her.

I'M NOT ABANDONNING THIS STORY. That seemed to be the main concern of most of the reviewers, so let me get this out now. I know how I want the story to end, and practically have the epilogue written out in my head. I'm just not sure how I want to get it there. So my updates will be slow, but they will come!

Thanks to Koala Kitty for pre-reading my story. According to the agreement we have she should be posting an update soon, so go read her stuff!
