Chapter One: Strange Behavior

"Stupid girl" Ranma Saotome mumbled as he sat down at the table with a huff, "Once again she gets angry over nothing."

"Oh Ranma" Kasumi Tendo said walking into the room, "You're home early this afternoon. I thought you were going with Akane this afternoon?"

"Yea right" Ranma said angrily, "With that tom boy! Not if she's gonna hit me."

"Oh my" Kasumi said, "Well where is Akane?"

"Like I care" Ranma replied standing up and walking out of the room heading upstairs, walking right past Nabiki who was surprised to see his face.

"Hey Ranma!" she said as she past him but he didn't say anything, "Hey Kasumi" she called to her sister, "What's with him?"

"Who knows" Kasumi shrugged her shoulders, "But I think him and Akane had another fight again."

"Figures" Nabiki sighed as she sat down, "They get this close to getting married and things go back to normal."

"Uh huh. Well I better get dinner started. You'll let me know when Akane gets home won't you?"

"Yea" Nabiki nodded as Kasumi left the room, "Oh no need to. I think I hear her coming into the door."

"Oh good" Kasumi said with a smile as she went into the front entrance, "Welcome back Akane" she replied as Akane Tendo, the youngest sister and Ranma's financee was taking off her shoes.

"Hey there Kasumi" Akane smiled.

"Oh you okay Akane?" Kasumi asked a bit surprised that she wasn't furious.

"Yea. Why wouldn't I be?"

"Well Ranma came home a few moments ago and he looked angry about something. I thought the two of you might have had a fight."

"Ranma? No we're not fighting. Where is he?"

"He's up in his room. Maybe it was a misunderstanding?"

"I guess" Akane replied with a bit of confusion in her eyes and pulling a small pink bookout of her bag, "Maybe I should go see what's up."

"Maybe you should" Kasumi nodded as Akane rushed upstairs.

She watched as her sister's figure disappeared and then with a small contented sigh she walked back into the kitchen to start dinner.

(Next Scene)

Akane walked over to the door where Ranma and his father Genma Sohma's room was located. She knocked once and Ranma opened it abruptly.

"Akane" he stared at her angrily and a bit surprised, "What do you want?"

"What's the matter Ranma? Did I do something wrong?"

"Huh?"

"Kasumi said that you were angry this afternoon so I came up to see what's wrong."

"What are you talking about?" Ranma replied leaning in on the doorpost, "Don't you remember what happened this afternoon?"

"No" she shook her head, "Should I?"

"Well you. Well I. You're not making any sense. Are you saying that you're not mad at me?"

"What would I be mad at you for?" she asked with a small smile on her face.

"Oh I get it. This is some sort of trick isn't it? You pretend that nothing's wrong and then you hit me again."

"Gracious did I hit you?" she put a hand to her mouth, "I'm sorry Ranma. I mean after all I wouldn't want to do that to you of all people."

"Huh?" his eyes almost popped out of his head, "Are you feeling okay? Did you bump your head or something?"

"No I'm fine" she shook her head.

Ranma felt her forehead with his hand while feeling his own.

"Well you don't have a fever."

"I told you, I'm okay. Well if nothing's wrong I'm gonna go change now. See you at dinner Ranma" she smiled again and walked down the hall humming to herself.

"What in the?" Ranma thought as he scratched his head, "Who was that girl and what did she do with Akane?"
