Chapter 1
- Magic Mushrooms. . .Again -
"Well, that was unexpected. . ." the young girl stated as she tried
to readjust her short robes. The Blue robes barely covered all that
was needed as it was never meant to be worn by someone as tall as the
girl with the purple-blue hair was now.
"It worked?" Ranma asked as he stood with his back towards the girl
trying to be a gentleman about this.
"Yes. . I would say it did," the girl replied as she looked down on
her young body amazed. "And you say this is permanent?"
"According to Ryouga you have to either eat another mushroom at the
right length or grow up again," Ranma said calmly even though he was
nervous. "Can I turn around yet?"
"Of course, you didn't have to turn around in the first place,"
Cologne chuckled softly. "I doubt you'll be calling me old ghoul any
time soon."
Ranma raised an eyebrow at the younger girl standing across form him
as if the robe fit properly, "Nah, I guess I have ta call you kid now."
"Oww," Ranma rubbed his head slightly as he grinned. "Haven't lose
any skill though."
"Yes and no, I'll have to train this body to prepare it for the more
advanced techniques I know but it's in good shape," Cologne said
smiling but she also looked confused. "Why so young?"
"It's not that young, only thirteen centimeters long," Ranma
replied. "Nabiki felt that if we made ya any older you'd might try ta
marry me like Shampoo is."
"The Tendo girl has made a small mistake then," Cologne's smile got
larger. "I'm old enough to do the 'Kiss of Marriage' regardless of
being in a thirteen year old body."
"Well then I ain't going to fight you then," Ranma stated smugly.
"But Child, you have beat me several times already," Cologne replied
trying not to laugh at the boy's face dropping and his sudden need to
reassure himself of where the door was.
"Ya ain't serious!?" Ranma exclaimed as he started to inch back
towards the door.
"Calm yourself Ranma. I'm not going to push that issue right now,"
Cologne said seriously. "I'm a little surprised you offered this to
me though."
"You remember the conditions," Ranma narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Yes yes, I remember," Cologne replied almost in annoyance. "Making
a deal with that Tendo girl is like making a deal with. . ."
"You are ta release Shampoo from the 'Kiss of Marriage' and both
'Kisses of Death' and ta stop attackin' Akane," Ranma reminded the
girl cutting her off.
"I'll inform Shampoo of it when she gets back. I surprised that you
didn't demand that we go back to China too," Cologne walked over to a
restaurant mirror to truly look over her body.
"You going back ta China was a given, but I wouldn't push a decision
on ya like that," Ranma looked away as Cologne lifted up the robe to
check her new chest out.
Cologne chuckled to herself as she watched Ranma in the reflection,
for a part-time girl he was oftly shy of other girl's bodies even if
he wasn't about his own, "Very kind of you, but you know that just
because I tell Shampoo that the 'Kiss' is nullified does not mean she
will stop."
"Yeah, I know. How'd Nabiki put it? Shampoo will have ta do it the
regular way now," Ranma said as he thought hard on the former
conversation. "It's part of the contract."
"Yes it was. Shampoo will have to try to get you to date her like
any other girl," Cologne agreed as she tried straightening the robe
again. "To that end she will probably have to go to the school as a
student now."
"Oh great," Ranma cringed.
"If you will excuse me Ranma, I have to see about getting proper
clothes," Cologne turned towards him and gave him an evil smirk as
she lifted up the front of the robe showing him how short it was again.
"Yeah, great," Ranma replied almost in a panic as he quickly left
the restaurant.
Cologne chuckled to herself as she removed the robe completely and
walked up the stairs to raid her Great-Granddaughter's closet until
she could get her own, "I always said that if I was three hundred
years younger. . ."
- - - -
"Soooo, how'd it go Ranma?" Nabiki asked as soon as Ranma ran into
the house. She smirked at the panicked look that Ranma currently held
on his face.
"Shampoo is of the hook for those 'Kisses'," Ranma replied quickly
but didn't seem happy. "But we might have a new problem. . ."
"We?" Nabiki leaned against the wall crossing her arms looking
unimpressed with the boy.
"You were wrong about the age thing. It don't matter what age she
looks ta Amazon law just how old she really is," Ranma explained as
he caught his breath after realizing no one had followed him.
"So. . . Cologne gave you the Kiss of Marriage?" Nabiki asked wide
eyed in disbelief. This could really complicate her current plans and
she went through too much to find those damn mushrooms again.
"No, not at this time, but she reminded me that I've beaten her a
couple of times and she could if she wanted to," Ranma didn't cringe
at that like Nabiki expected him to.
"And they aren't leaving are they?" Nabiki asked although she
expected that they wouldn't, it was a hope but she hadn't put much
faith into it.
"No," Ranma replied with a slight frown.
"Who's not leaving?" Akane asked as she came in from the back yard.
"It's not important Sis," Nabiki waved off Akane as she turned and
headed for her room.
"Ranma, did Nabiki rope you into another one of her schemes? How
much do you owe her this time?" Akane asked as her anger started to
rise because she was basically being ignored.
"I don't owe her anything, she owes the Saotome family and she's
trying ta repay that debt," Ranma said coldly as he turned to walk up
to his room to get his work clothes. "I've got ta go help with the
Dojo tonight."
Akane watched stunned by Ranma's coldness to her then looked at the
destroyed Dojo and both Fathers working on rebuilding it. It had just
been repaired from the wedding fiasco and then she made the mistake
of asking Ryouga to teach her how to do the chi ball attack. She
found her focus but it wasn't a good thing, it was anger and it was
uncontrollable. If Ranma hadn't been nearby she would have died when
the roof collapsed from the walls being blown out. He had done the
one thing he had never done before to her that day, he slapped her.
The slap was to knock some sense into her for being stupid enough to
try to develop a chi blast inside. She should have known better after
seeing so many of them but she didn't believe she had enough chi to
make more then a small ball more harmless then anything else. . she
unfortunately tapped into her anger and frustration because it was
taking so long to learn.
Akane was shook out of her thoughts about the past by a shout from
up stairs.
"NABIKI!!!!!!!"
"Ranma?" Akane bolted up the stairs as fast as she could and nearly
dropped at the sight in front of her. Ranma stood in the hall wearing
only his favorite red Chinese shirt, the pants to the set had fallen
off because they didn't fit anymore, glaring at her older sister
holding out an empty bowl of rice. Nabiki was looking as shocked as
Akane was at seeing a yet again younger Ranma.
"Why Nabiki? Why'd ya do it ta me?" Ranma asked looking panicked and
betrayed at the same time.
"I. . I didn't," Nabiki replied wide eyed at the younger boy. "I
only got four mushrooms, I gave one to a friend to research, and the
other two were locked away!"
"Then how did this happen!?" Ranma pointed out to younger body.
Although it wasn't too much younger then he was normally it was
enough to cause problems.
"How DID it happen?" Akane asked confused. "And what's with the
mushrooms being back again? Did Ryouga find some more?"
"I was hungry and there was a bowl of rice with a mushroom and
several pickled carrots on it in my room. . I thought it was Pop's,"
Ranma said feeling a little stupid.
"Why are there mushrooms here again!" Akane asked again getting
angry at being ignored, a small glow started around she clenched her
fists.
"AKANE! SOUL OF ICE! NOW!" Ranma yelled at her glaring sternly,
Akane stepped back in shock and the glow went away immediately.
"Sorry. . ." Akane replied shame faced as she calmed down. Akane
hadn't even come close to learning the technique that Ranma decided
to teach her after she developed her chi ball but being told to use
it meant she was getting dangerously close to losing it and possibly
hurting someone.
"I'll check on the ones I have here and I'll call my friend about
hers," Nabiki offered as she ducked back into her room for a moment,
she came back out pale. "My safe has been rifled through and the
mushrooms are gone!"
"But who would want to do that?" Akane asked as she followed Nabiki
and Ranma downstairs to the phone.
"Someone that wanted either me, Pop, or my Mother thirteen years
old," Ranma replied as Nabiki dialed her friend.
After a moment of Nabiki talking to the person doing research she
turned to the other two, "The one I gave to her has been stolen too."
"So we either have to find the ones stolen or get some more," Akane
said as if it wasn't a problem.
"I took the only ones that were there and the man that lived near
them said no more would grow for about a year," Nabiki looked very
unhappy then a little scared. "And the person who stole them has two
more. . and is willing to use them."
"Only person I can think of is Happosai," Ranma said in an angry
tone. "He'd love ta see my Mother as a teenager again."
"Or have a few more years with you stuck living here before being
able to go off to College," Nabiki added.
"Nah, he'd hate ta lose the chest I have as a girl and I should be
smaller now I'm younger," Ranma replied in disgust. "It has to be my
Mother that was the target."
"So we have to stop him from getting your Mother to eat one of those
two mushrooms," Nabiki stated then turned back to her room. "I've got
to make an inventory of what else he took and then I'll meet you two
downstairs to start looking for him."
"I'll go warn Mother," Ranma agreed as he hopped over the stairs
railing.
"I. . I guess I should warn Dad and Kasumi," Akane said to the empty
hallway as she started down the stairs.
"Oh Sweeto! Akane my dear how fortunate I've run into you!" a
scratchy voice exclaimed from behind her as she walked into the
living room. Turning to give the little pervert a piece of her mind
she almost gagged on the mushroom going into her mouth before
swallowing it. Happosai didn't bother sticking around to see the
change as he could hear others coming, "See ya Akane!"
Akane tried to support herself as she tried to get her breathing
back to normal when Ranma caught her as she misjudged the distance to
the door frame.
"Careful Akane, Ya gotta take a moment to readjust to the size
difference," Ranma said calmly as he helped the now younger girl to
the couch, he was an old pro at this after all.
"Why? Why'd he chose me to do this to?" Akane asked in disbelief
shock as she sat down.
"Don't know, have ta ask him after I beat his little head in. . if
he can still talk," Ranma said in anger as he glared out the patio
door.
"Ranma! Akane! What happened!?!" Nabiki asked as she came down the
stairs quickly.
"He got Akane with one of the other mushrooms," Ranma said still
angry.
"I. . I can see that," Nabiki replied as she took in Akane's new
look. . or she should say an old look come back. "Akane. . you look
about. . I would guess twelve."
"WHAT!?! I thought the mushroom where grown for thirteen!?!" Akane
jumped up in panic and tried to get a look at herself.
"Um. . we weren't sure what age we were gonna offer to Cologne,"
Ranma said nervously. "Two were thirteen centimeters, one was eleven
centimeters, and one was sixteen centimeters. . just incase something
like this happened"
"I gave the sixteen one to my friend to see if she could grow it,
fungus tends to be able to do that," Nabiki added as she watched
Akane suddenly click in one the list.
"I'M ELEVEN AGAIN!?!" Akane screamed then sat down on the verge of
crying. "Why? Why. . ?"
"If we get the other one back you can have it. You'll be sixteen
again and not a kid," Ranma said as he sat quietly.
"But what about you? You need it too!" Akane spun on Ranma.
"I can wait the year for the next mushrooms to grow. . you shouldn't
have to," Ranma replied softly not looking at Akane.
"It's a moot point until we get that mushroom back," Nabiki stated
quickly as she saw a look of defiance in her sister's eyes.
"I'm afraid that that isn't going to happen," a young woman's voice
said from the entrance area.
"M. Mom?" Ranma bolted upright staring at the older teen girl with
the auburn hair wearing a kimono.
"Yes Ranma, I had a small encounter with the old Master on the way
back from shopping," Nodoka replied as she walked into the room. "I
see I wasn't the only victim of his actions."

Author's Notes: Just a weird idea that a friend suggested the other
night. I needed to write something fresh to get my juices flowing for
RTVS chapter 10 and Robin 1 / 2 chapter 4 (chapter 3 is with a pre
reader at the time of this piece.
The concept was Cologne becoming younger and a R+C fic. I didn't
want there not to be conflict with this so Akane is younger and still
holds a claim to Ranma but this is not for KotF out there. And of
course a subplot is how does Genma and Nodoka deal with her becoming
younger (only old enough to be thirteen year old Ranma's older sister
and not his Mother).
This will only get worked on occasionally as other stories are more
important at the moment.
