Author Notes: Hey y'all sorry this is taking so long.

Disclaimer: Dead or Alive and Ranma ½ do not belong t me, simple as that now let's get on with the contents we want to read.

Previously… Ranma and Kasumi just had a nice day exploring Jack's Island after having a nice lunch the two were about to kiss when low and behold Hitomi and Lei Fang come out of the water after diving on the reef. Now Ranma's presence has been exposed and with four women on the island that are targeting his heart it's going to be one hectic two weeks.

After being discovered Ranma and Kasumi were forced to cancel their little outing as both Lei Fang and Hitomi demanded explanations. It wasn't very long after that Helena also caught wind of Ranma's arrival. Now mostly everyone was now assembled in the lobby Tina was leaning on a nearby couch with her arms crossed under her breasts as she watched with amusement as the girls glared at Kasumi and Ranma. Kasumi returned the glares upset that her time with Ranma was ruined while Ranma's head was bent low while he mentally wished he was somewhere else.

"Ranma, how did you get here?" Helena asked breaking her glare from Kasumi. Her question had the effect of breaking Hitomi and Lei Fang's glare from the kunoichi as they waited for Ranma to answer Helena's question.

Ranma began to sweat as the girls combined gazes bore into him he glanced at Kasumi who had an uneasy look that stated she had no idea what to say. Ranma thought really hard as the gazes of the girls grew in intensity then it popped into his head, it was so simple that he was surprised he hadn't thought of it earlier. "I followed Ryoga." He stated

Helena and Lei Fang blinked in confusion, Tina quirked an eyebrow wondering what that meant, the only one who didn't look confused was Hitomi. "Oh that explains it." She said easing her gaze up and drew the gazes of the three who were confused at Ranma's statement. "I know it sounds crazy but Ryoga does get lost and although it seems incomprehensible he gets lost all over the world."

"You can't be serious. How can that guy get around the world by just getting lost?" Helena asked clearly unconvinced.

"I know it's crazy because I don't know how he does it on foot but he gets there, I've gotten things from him as souvenirs from his travels. Chocolates from Belgium, Coffee from Ethiopia, heck once the three of us shared four Chicago deep dish pizzas he brought along with him and they were still hot." Hitomi said throwing her hands up in a sign of being unable to comprehend the phenomenon that the lost boy was.

"It's a rare thing too since Ryoga usually gets lost so long that whatever food that isn't preserved is usually spoiled when he finally shows up in the right place." Ranma said adding his words to Hitomi's.

"Surely you can't be serious, I'm sure that pizza came from somewhere in Japan." Lei Fang said.

Hitomi stared hard at her friend and rival in love. "This isn't regular pizza Lei Fang, it's Chicago deep dish a specialty pizza if there is one in Japan it definitely wouldn't be in the small district we were at and furthermore the boxes he was carrying them in were labeled and addressed from a place in Chicago and I checked the place on the net there are no other branches outside of the city let alone Japan."

By now both Helena and Lei Fang were doing very good interpretations of fish. Tina shook her head and stated she was going off to see Lisa and catch up on old times. Her statement and departure went highly unnoticed as all the persons were focused at the subject at hand.

Helena pressed a palm to her cheek and sighed. "Here I thought that I would never be surprised by you ever again Ranma, but it seems doing so is a common thing for you."

Ranma couldn't really reply to that and settled for chuckling nervously while rubbing the back of his head. It didn't last very long however as Lei Fang pounced onto his back and began snuggling her cheek to the top of his head.

"That doesn't really matter now all that matters is that Ranma's here to spend time with me." She said giggling at Ranma's sputtering at her surprise glomp.

"Excuse me? Who decided you were going with him? Hitomi said slamming the coffee table with both hands as she stared hard at Lei Fang, they may have been good friends but when it came to Ranma that was a whole different story.

"Why? Is that a problem Hitomi?" Lei Fang locked eyes with Hitomi and sparks flew between the two as a sweatdrop formed on Ranma's head at the all too familiar situation he was now in.

"Now the both of you settle down right now." Helena stated which had the effect of breaking the lock between the two glaring girls as all eyes turned to the opera singer. "While I to would like to spend time alone with Ranma fighting over him isn't going to solve it, if anything we'll just be repeating the same process that he's gone through with his ex-fiancees in Nerima."

Helena's words were like a red hot coal being dropped in a bucket of ice water, immediately the anger and tension that surrounded the group gave way to shame and embarrassment. Kasumi also blushed as she realized that she too had also been caught up despite the fact she already knew that's how Akane and the others had been knocked off the fiancée list.

"So what do we do? Everyone here wants to spend time with Ranma." Hitomi asked.

"What shall we do indeed?" Helena said tapping the side of her chin with a finger. "We have two weeks on this island so we roughly have fourteen days. We'll each have a day with Ranma."

"That only works for the first twelve days Helena." Lei Fang stated.

"That is why for the remaining two days he will take us all out. After all he needs a little punishment for not telling us that he came here." Helena said.

Hitomi and Lei Fang both thought about that before nodding to Helena. Ranma's jaw dropped dates with each girl for twelve days than all four for the last two. He looked at Kasumi with a pleading look. Kasumi gave him an apologetic look but shook her head slightly. Ranma then reached into his pocket and pulled out his wallet which had all of his meager savings that he scraped up, what started as a fairly decent amount now stood as rather pitiful for the upcoming events. He needed to get some money but how? He absolutely sucked at gambling.

'So much for my vacation.' Ranma thought as he slipped his wallet back into his pocket.

"So who's getting him today?" Lei Fang asked it was already past noon she didn't want her time with Ranma to only last half a day.

"I am." Kasumi stated as she wrapped her arms around Ranma. "Or rather I'm finishing it since we were interrupted."

"Hey you're the one who tried to keep him a secret!" Hitomi shouted as she gazed coldly at the kunoichi but broke it off as a hand touched her shoulder. Looking over her shoulder revealed it was Helena who intervened.

"That's enough Hitomi it's in the past Kasumi started the day with Ranma so she has every right to finish it. We'll all get to spend with him soon."

Hitomi gave one last glance at Ranma and Kasumi before she nodded. Kasumi then pulled Ranma to his feet and led him outside no sooner did they leave the remaining three stood and seemingly pulled out duffel bags from out of nowhere and began to don the contents.

Kasumi's left eyebrow twitched as she walked along with Ranma. Ranma chuckled as he tried to ignore the three heavily clad brown coated figures that were trying to stealthily follow them and doing a rather bad job at it. The three were great martial artists but they definitely didn't excel in stalking someone.

"I can't believe this." Kasumi muttered as she heard a muffled cry from fifteen feet back as one of the girls accidentally stepped on another's foot.

Ranma made no comment, what could he do? He actually expected this behavior after all it happened in Nerima as well although the girls he was now engaged too were taking the situation in a more civil manner then the previous ones. Kasumi continued to fume as they continued walking until a voice calling to them halted them.

"Hello Nee-san."

Kasumi froze in her tracks as she and Ranma turned to face the voice. Sure enough the origin of the voice was from none other then Ayane who smirked at the two.

"What's gotten you so down Nee-san? Is your date not turning out so well?" Ayane asked. "That's too bad I'm having so much fun with mine." Ayane squeezed the arm of the person she was with.

Ryoga tried his best to glare angrily at Ranma but it was being ruined by the fact he was red in the face from embarrassment. Ayane was wearing a bikini and she had the length of the arm she was holding onto pressed against her from between her breasts down to her flat belly. The only reason he hadn't passed out with a nosebleed was because he was finally getting used to her frequent exposure and skinship albeit barely. Now those defenses were being battered further by how Kasumi looked so good in her somewhat more modest one-piece.

Ignoring the surprised voices behind her, Kasumi frowned at her half-siblings behavior Ayane would never act like this unless there was a purpose and the purpose was clearly that she was teasing Ryoga and his weakness to women with 70 percent skin exposure.

"Ayane it's not nice to tease Ryoga like that." Kasumi stated.

Ayane brushed a stray hair from her face. "Me? Teasing Ryoga?" Ayane said in a in an exaggerated appalled tone. "How could you possibly say that dear sister? Ryoga and I, we have a special relationship. Am I right Ryo-chan" Ayane squeezed the captured arm to her body and slightly lifted her leg so the top of her inner thigh brushed barely to Ryoga's clenched hand. Immediately the bandanna wearing martial artist stiffened and his face lit up into an even deeper red.

Kasumi frown deepened at Ayane's act while Ranma couldn't help but give Ryoga a sympathetic look, he himself was used to girls throwing themselves on him somewhat but for Ryoga it was a different story altogether, even with Akane the closest skinship Ryoga got was as a piglet now he was getting it in his un-cursed state with a girl who was by far physically a lot more well-formed then Akane ever was.

Ayane inwardly grinned at Ryoga's shyness and embarrassment, as strong as the lost boy was any bit of flirting by a girl would throw him for a loop, it was the one thing she enjoyed doing to pay him back for the hell he kept putting her through. It wasn't his training that was hard although it was difficult it was to be expected, the hell he put her through was to constantly monitor him to prevent him from running off and getting lost for god knows how long. After realizing his weakness to women she purposefully began teasing him, from training that would sometimes expose too much skin, walking purposely to Ryoga after taking a bath while only dressed in a towel, and of course the frequent flirtatious teasing and skinship. A flustered Ryoga was so entertaining to watch especially as he tried to teach while he was still in the state, although she had to admit that he was actually quite cute while he was all embarrassed and red.

"So sister what are you two doing now?" Ayane asked.

"That's nothing for you to be concerned with Ayane." Kasumi replied.

"Oh?" Ayane said. "Are the two of you really so busy? I was going to propose a little competition."

"Competition?" Ranma asked finally entering the conversation.

Ayane smiled. "Why yes Saotome, a competition between you two and us." She emphasized the "us" with another squeeze to the captured arm and a suppressed squeak from Ryoga.

"What could that possibly be?" Kasumi asked.

"A volleyball match of course dear sister." Ayane stated.

Kasumi blinked in surprise. "Volley ball?"

Ayane smirked. "Of course if the two of you can't handle the challenge I guess we can…" Ayane inwardly smiled as she set the bait.

"We accept!" Ranma shouted his eyes burning.

Kasumi sighed as expected giving a challenge to Ranma caught him hook, line, and sinker. Still it was volley ball and she was still a bit frustrated from earlier even more so now with the entourage trying to remain stealthy behind them.

"Alright." Kasumi said. "Let's head for the nearest court."

As the four left the three girls quickly followed but paused at a coconut palm where a kunai pinned a folded piece of paper to the trunk, Helena quickly removed the paper and unfolded it while the Lei Fang and Hitomi leaned in to see it as well.

You three look absolutely ridiculous right now. Just take off the outfits and come watch the match if you want too. Kasumi

Three sweatdrops appeared on three corresponding heads as the girls quickly took off their stalking clothes and stuck them into the nearest waste receptacle before continuing after the four this time without trying to be stealthy.

To be continued.

Author notes: It's been a long time people I know. I've been having hell from my classes, I ended up biting off more then I can chew and had to drop one of my courses to help lighten the load and I'm still having difficulty. I've also been working a little more on a piece of work on deviant art which is also why my updates are becoming less frequent. What I can say is that I am working on an update for my Returner Ranma series, Ranma of Shishin is still being revised so no updates for now. I still have very little material for my Saber-toothed Ranma so that fic is officially on hold. The other fics are being updated very slowly and worst of all I've started writing a new series, yeah stupid of me isn't it? But that's how it is. I've recently been reading an addventure thread called "The Fate of the Sacred Bead" started by Iridium Heart. I've started my own fic based off it although there are parts that are quite heavily based off the thread it will also be different. Here's a preview.

Kanto region has become a warzone.

Young teenagers brutally fighting each other in serious bouts to the death, all to reenact a conflict fought over 1800 years ago in ancient war torn China.

The terrified citizens of Japan demand action from the government to end this gang war between schools that is so thinly disguised as a bloody reenactment of destiny. But the police are too scared and powerless to halt this war.

Under increasing pressure the government finally institutes a plan of action to put an end to this war.

"That was pretty good. I think you better and let us handle the rest though."

"How could you hit a girl with such force your skills are already above hers that's unforgivable."

"H-He beat Taishiji with one punch how the fuck did he do that?" One of the lower ranked toushi

_______________________________

"We have a little tradition here the new fighters here have to go through and initiation try to beat as many of us as you can." The boy stated.

"Well then I leave it to you man."

"What?! Why only me?"

"Hey just for your information he can take you all at once so don't hold back."

"Ah! Damn you!"

"How interesting mind having a bout with me?" Kanu asked.

*Slap* "Tag in, my turn man."

"Huh, why only now do you want to fight?"

"You can't handle her; she's more at my level then yours."

"Hey I've read this book before how far along are you into the series?"

"Uh I've only read the first two." Ryuubi said a bit surprised.

"Really so you already know the part about the king and the sorcerer being manipulated by that ancient witch."

Chouhi moaned as she slapped a hand to her face. "Oh please spare me."

"Uh by the way does this school have a gardening club?"

_______________________________

"You were a bit rough with her weren't you?" Chou'un said.

"Well I made a mistake in the past so I felt if she took a few lumps she'd give me less attitude and a little more respect and it seems that it worked. Did I go too far?"

"No, in fact I'm quite impressed you held such restraint after her earlier treatment to you."

"Class, we have two new students here who have just transferred here. Will the both of you please introduce yourselves." The teacher stated.

"Saotome Ranma, good ta meet ya." He nodded.

"My name is Shirahama Kenichi pleased to meet you all." Kenichi bowed.
