Sister School If you have an anime, and I have a fanfic. And I have a disclaimer, see? Here's a disclaimer. Now if my disclaimer reaches acccrrroooossss the room, and starts to drink your anime. I...drink...your...ANIME! (slurping sounds) I DRINK IT UP! "Don't Bully me boomwarrior!" -Rumiko Takahashi Chapter 4: Revelations (Yeah, that's a creative title) Akane stood in front of the three women like a deer in the headlights. "I'm sorry, did you say you were a boy?" she asked Eve. Eve closed her eyes and sighed, "I'm not a boy, at least not anymore. Me and Ranma went to a place in China and got into an accident." "What happened?" "Well, we went to this place called Jusenkyo..." Eve went into full detail about what happened. "Why didn't you tell me this earlier?" Akane asked. "Well, you said what good friends we are, and we figured you didn't want to be friends with a couple of freaks like us." Eve said, hanging her head in shame. Akane hugged the girl, "We're still friends. I don't care if you used to be boys. You're girls now and that's all that matters." Eve hugged back, "Thanks Akane. That means a lot, to both of us." The next day, the two girls went down for breakfast but Nodoka stopped them. "Is that anyway for two young women to look?" they looked at each other confused, "Look how mom?" Eve asked. Nodoka shook her head, "No makeup, no jewelry, no accessories, no hairstyle, that's not how a girl your age should look." After about a twenty minute tutorial from Nodoka, Ranma replaced her pigtail with a French braid. They both had lipstick, nail polish, clip on earrings, and eyeliner. They both felt thoroughly embarassed. When they left they ran into Akane about halfway there. The three friends walked to school together. Akane groaned at the usual menagerie of boys charging at her. She felt Ranma's hand on her shoulder, "We'll help you, if you want." Akane smiled, "Thanks, I'd like that." The three girls charged at the crowd of boys. Eve was having the most trouble since she lacked her usual weapons, or any for that matter. Ranma ducked and weaved around every boy with incredible speed. Akane punched as hard as she could at every person she saw. When all the boys were on the ground, they walked to class holding each other at the shoulders. At lunch, Kuno tried to get with Akane again. But this time Eve and Ranma retaliated which threw Kuno off guard. Kuno managed to actually scratch Eve on the neck, which just made them both angrier. Eve grabbed Kuno by the head and shoved his face into the dirt violently. Though I couldn't imagine shoving someone's face into the dirt in a nonviolent way. She lifted Kuno's face up and saw he was unconscious, she dropped him back onto the ground. She straightened her skirt and wiped some dirt off, "Idiot made me get my uniform dirty." This made Akane giggle at the scene. At the locker room the three girls were standing outside the door. "Are you sure it's okay for us to be in there Akane?" Ranma asked. Akane smiled and nodded, "Sure, we're all girls right?" the two sisters nervously nodded at the statement. Inside the locker room, all the girls suddenly stopped and looked at the three who entered. They all nervously looked away, fearing one of them might get punched. Ranma knew why they were acting like this, but she preferred it to the 'wardrobe malfunction' she got yesterday. During gym, it was the girls day to go swimming. Eve put her long hair into a ponytail, she preferred having her guy short hair back, but everyone said how good she looked with long hair, so she kept it. She had a tendency to feel obligated to do things through compliment. Both Ranma and Eve were wearing two piece swimsuits. This was the first time they wore something like this. It was strange, it was breezier than trunks underneath, but the bikini proved to give ample warmth in the chest region, something a guy never worried about. Being that this is an AU fanfic, the two didn't have to worry about aqua-phobia. Instead, they enjoyed swimming with the other girls. Since they had to swim to China before, the two sisters were pretty good swimmers. When I say 'pretty good' I mean for someone like Michael Phelps. They finished their laps before anyone and had the rest of class for free time. They sat on the edge of the pool resting and Akane joined them after about five minutes. Ranma was having a good time until she sensed something with her chi. "Hentai" she whispered. Eve heard this and felt the pervert chi too. They looked up at one of the building windows and saw two boys looking down at them. It was their classmates Hiroshi and Daisuke. Eve looked at them and made a gesture with her thumb that looked like cutting someone's head off. The blinds on the window immediately closed. After school the two sisters met Akane at the ice cream shop with her friends Sayuri and Yuka. They had never had ice cream before, it seemed like something that wasn't manly with it's fruity colorful looks. But, they weren't men, they both thought, they were girls and they didn't have to be masculine anymore. Eve and Ranma immediately ordered some fancy sundaes and parfaits. They both ate a spoonful and savored the flavor. It was pure bliss, the taste of chocolate rolling down Ranma's tongue, and the fruity strawberry that caressed Eve's taste buds. That feeling was over and they both continued to eat it at their regular fast pace. After that they all went shopping. Eve and Ranma weren't particularly fond of this, but Akane insisted that it was what normal girls did. Ranma didn't find anything, but Eve got some heavy metal t-shirts from the Hot Topic store. She didn't get the chance to listen to a lot of music on the road, but she savored what she could listen to. Once while they were walking through Tokyo, Adam got lost and found his way to a record store. There was thumping music playing over the speakers. Adam asked what it was and the cashier said it was a band called Motorhead, and he's been a fan ever since. Akane made both of them get some dresses, insisting that it looked good on them and how normal girls would get them. Sayuri and Yuka looked confused. Back at Nodoka's house, Akane asked them to try on some of their new clothes. The new dresses combined with Nodoka's lesson from the morning made them look absolutely radiant. Ranma was ready to put a bullet to her head, but she was just glad seppuku wasn't involved. Yeah, I forgot to mention that didn't I? To new readers, Genma and Nodoka signed an agreement before leaving for the training trip. The promise was that if Ranma wasn't a 'man among men' the three of them would perform ritual seppuku. But, being that this is my AU, Nodoka refused to sign the agreement for fear of her son's life. At dinner, they were discussing everyday things, "So girls, how was your day?" Nodoka asked. Both of the girls shrugged, "It was okay, I guess." Eve said. She then turned to Akane who they invited over for dinner, "Akane, I gotta ask, why are you so okay with being our friend? You obviously hate boys, so why do you like us?" "Well, you two aren't like most boys, obviously. You know what it's like to be a girl. It's like you're both really big tomboys, not that's that a bad thing. I like you two, you're nice, funny, caring, compassionate." "Thanks Akane." The next day was a day off. They all decided to just practice martial arts at the Tendo dojo. Ranma was teaching Akane to be faster, while Eve was just practicing her weapons techniques. Akane noticed Eve's powerful weapon combos. "That's really good Eve, but what will you do if they disarm you?" Eve smirked, "They're not gonna disarm me." She threw one of the short swords she was holding at a nearby tree. The sword went right through it and embedded itself in the wall behind it. Eve snapped at this in frustration, "Damn. I still can't get it through rock." "Where am I now?" came a voice on the other side of the wall. Eve and Ranma jumped over the wall to find Ryoga walking aimlessly around. "Ryoga!" they both said. Ryoga turned around, "Hi Ranma, Eve. What's up?" "We were just practicing our skills with our friend Akane. You wanna practice?" Eve asked. "Okay, sure." Ranma and Ryoga sparred in the dojo while Eve was showing Akane some sword techniques. Akane was good, but not great. She was nowhere near the level of swordplay Eve was at, mostly because she always associated swords with Kuno. Ranma and Ryoga were pretty evenly matched, even though Ranma was a girl. Where Ryoga was much stronger, Ranma was much faster, this made for an interesting match. After practice, everyone sat down and ate some of Kasumi's cooking as a snack. They discussed each others' flaws, shared secrets, that sort of thing. While they ate outside, Ranma felt two hands cover her eyes from behind. She heard a familiar voice in broken Japanese, "Guess who Ranma?" "Shampoo!" Ranma got up and hugged her Amazonian friend. Eve got up too, "What are you doing in Japan?" "Shampoo here with great grandmother and Mousse. We open ramen shop down street called Cat Cafe. Shampoo come to see how friends doing." "We're great, these are our friends, Ryoga you know, and this is Akane." Eve said. "So are you gonna go to school here Shampoo?" Ranma asked. "Hai, great grandmother say Shampoo need good education. It help Shampoo find good airen." "Airen?" Akane asked. "It man who woman live with." "Oh, a husband." "Well, it's great that you're here Shampoo. When can we see Mousse?" Eve asked. "You see him right now. He at Cat Cafe working." At the Nekohanten, Mousse was busy scrubbing tables. Cologne was in the back cooking for her first customers. She heard the bell to the door ring and saw who walked in, "Well, if it isn't Ranma and Eve." she said as she walked out to them. "It's good to see you too Noble Elder." Eve said as she shook the old woman's hand. "You can call me Cologne sweetie." Mousse looked up from the table, "Oh, hey guys, I didn't see you there." "Hey Mousse." the two sisters said. Cologne continued the conversation, "You know, I've seen you girls in action. You both have serious potential. I think I'll teach you a secret Chinese technique. Come out back." They followed Cologne out back where she lit a bonfire and pulled out a bag. "Here I have a bag of sweet chestnuts." She poured them all into the fire. "Watch closely." Everyone did, but it was no use. Cologne moved her arms so fast they couldn't even see them. After about five seconds she had all of the chestnuts in her hands. Everyone else looked stunned. "Legendary technique, Kachu Tenshin Amaguriken!" Shampoo announced. "Yes, it's all about speed. You want me and Ranma to grab the chestnuts from the fire without getting singed. It's the same as running your finger through a candle, but on a larger scale." "It's clear who got the brains out of you two." Cologne mocked. Ranma just looked annoyed. For the next few days, the girls practiced the Chestnuts Technique, but not with an actual fire. They just used a bucket of water and tried to pluck them without getting too wet. This proved to actually work well for them. Ranma was pretty close to having it down, Eve was not. She wanted to implement her swords into the technique but they were too heavy to be moving that fast. So, on top of being fast, she also needed to be strong enough to move them at such incredible speeds. One night they were having dinner. Nodoka's food was delicious as usual. She was so proud to how her daughters had adjusted to being...daughters. They were eating much slower, they knew how to speak politely, they put on makeup every morning, and they didn't scowl when they were acknowledged as girls. "How's the chestnuts training going girls?" she asked. "Ranma's doing great, I still have some kinks to work out. I need to be able to slash my swords at that fast a rate, which is not an easy feat." "You can do it honey, I believe in you." "Thanks mom." End of Chapter 4: Next Chapter, Ranchan meets an old familiar face.
