Ranma Crossing Over to the Wild Side

By Paul Bennett a.k.a. Shadowbakasama


Chapter 14: Lunch: All you can eat Ramen and Okonomiyaki

<hr size=1 width=100% noshade>

The old priest was showing the three lovely young ladies where to set out the food and set up the griddle on the back porch and trying to work up the nerve to ask them to be shrine maidens. But frankly the Amazon and the chef intimidated him. He wasnÆt sure what to make of the pretty waitress in the beautiful kimono, if he wasnÆt watching her, she just seemed to disappear occasionally then reappear nearby. The ancient creature on a stick really scared him. Now he knew why Ranma had asked if Yosho was shrunken and wrinkled.

Once the Chinese food was set out and the grill was lit Akura steps inside and tells his guests that lunch is ready on the back porch and asks ôWhere is Ranma and the other girls?ö

ôI sent Ranma to get washed up about 15 minutes ago, he should have come out by now.ö Nodoka tells him. ôI think Nabiki-chan is gossiping with Rei-chan and her friends back in her bedroom. You donÆt suppose that Ranma is doing something manly with the four girls do you?ö

Akura gets red in the face imagining four girls and Ranma, then remembers that one of them is his granddaughter. His face is now going past red into purple and he runs past Nodoka and Katsuhito heading for ReiÆs bedroom imagining the worst. (Which is a pretty interesting picture of group flexibility that would fit well in the Kama Sutra, the old priest reputation as a hentai is deserved it seems.)

Rei clutched RanmaÆs right arm to her chest and looked towards Nabiki and her camera waiting for the flash while Minako clutched RanmaÆs left arm and Ami leaned backwards into his chest posing for the group picture when ReiÆs grandfather burst into the bedroom with a thunderous look on his purple face just in time for the flash.

ôWhat are you kids doing in here?!ö Akura yells as he enters the room.

ôGRAMPS!ö Rei growls ôYou ruined the shot!


Seeing that all the girls were wearing clothes, and looking at him with vengeful eyes, he decides to back off. ôHeh heh, sorry. Just my overactive imagination.ö He apologizes backing up to the door. ôUhm, lunch is here. Bye.ö And heÆs off like a shot.

ôWell, that ruined the mood.ö Nabiki says putting away her camera. ôLets go have lunch and let you girls meet Shampoo and Ukyo.ö

ôOh joy! Did you order explosives this time Nabiki?ö Ranma snidely remarks.

ôHa ha.ö Nabiki fake laughs. ôBut seriously, I expect that Shampoo has already told Ukyo that they get to share you.ö

ôAnd how would she know that I would suddenly accept multiple wives?ö Ranma asks Nabiki suspiciously.

Nabiki just hold out her hand and asks for ô500 yen.ö

Ranma glares at the mercenary and tells her ôJust take it out of my share.ö as he crosses his arms across his chest.

ôOh right.ö Nabiki says pulling her hand back as she realizes that she owes Ranma money for a change. ôWell, Shampoo was listening to us last night when we were discussing your fiancees with your family. Apparently your motherÆs clan is polygamous.ö

ôPoly-wha?ö

ôPolygamous means that you can have more than a single wife, Ranma-kun.ö Ami explains.

ôExactly. DonÆt worry too much Saotome. We came up with a plan to cut down the number of wives you have to have to keep your honor intact.ö Nabiki adds. ôThe easy ones to get rid of are your Amazon wives Ling-Ling, Lung-Lung, Lotion, and Perfume, unless youÆve already consummated your marriage with any of them.ö

ôConsume ate?ö

ôRanma, have you slept with any of those Amazons!?ö Rei asks interrupting him.

ôHell no! The only Amazon IÆve slept with is Shampoo.ö Ranma yells in his defense.

ôYouÆve slept with Shampoo!!ö RanmaÆs three wives scream at him.

ôHey hey! She keep sneaking into bed with me while I was asleep.ö Ranma answers while backing away from the angry girls.

ôDo you sleep in the nude?ö Rei asks.

ôNot with Nabiki around with a camera and cold water.ö Ranma says glancing a Nabiki who was just changing out the film in her two cameras.

ôSo then youÆre still a virgin?ö Minako asks.

ôYeah, but just barely.ö Ranma replies. ôOne time Shampoo cornered me in the furo as a cat, then she jumped in and changed into a girl right on top of me. I figure if Akane had been a few seconds slower busting in on us ... uh, well you get the idea.ö

ôDonÆt worry, that wonÆt be a problem much longer Ranma-kun.ö Ami drawls in a husky voice, drawing shocked stares from her co-wives Rei and Minako.

ôThatÆs right!ö Minako exclaims realizing that she could get into the action if she acts quickly. ôA stud like you shouldnÆt have a cherry like that, and we can help you bust that problem!ö

Rei face palmed and Ami turned beet red as their mutual friend mangled a really bad pick-up line, while Nabiki was thinking about keeping a micro-tape recorder on when around Minako to catch these . . . uh . . . vocalized brain farts for posterity or blackmail.

Ranma broke up this tense scene by reminding them of lunch being ready with a deep throated growl emitted from his stomach.

<hr size=1 width=40% noshade>

Out on the porch as the others were helping themselves to the Chinese food and placing orders for their okonomiyaki Ayeka was looking over Shampoo and thinking of how her hair reminded her of her motherÆs and sisterÆs hair, and that that she hadnÆt seen that shade of blue hair on any earth humans before.

Shampoo seeing her interest asks, ôYou like ShampooÆs hair, yes?ö

ôUhn, yes. Actually you have the same color as my mother and sister.ö Ayeka replies.

ôHmm, it make sense, AmazonÆs not have this color or your color until the daughters and sons of Blossom.ö Shampoo tells her. ôShampooÆs cousin Ling Ling have same color as your hair and can also trace lineage back to Blossom.ö


ôAnd how does this make sense?ö Ayeka asks. ôI donÆt see any connection.ö

ôIs simple Ayeka-sama, the daughters and sons of Blossom were your nieces and nephews.ö Shampoo informs her, bowing to her great to the twentieth power aunt.

Ayeka was stunned by this news, but upon thinking of it realized that her brother Yosho had been on this planet for 700 years and could have had many human wives in that time. But how did Shampoo know about her?

Shouldn't Ayeka be saying how much there hair is alike? Ayeka and her father have purple hair. Sasami and her mother have blue hair.

Shampoo has purple hair.

You know, you could have Ayeka prank Yosho...especially since he was technically her fiance at the time.

I am sure a scene with Yosho being chased around the shrine by Ayeka with one of Rei's brooms would be rather amusing.

Or just a remark from Sasami about Lady Seto coming to visit soon. Watch Yosho sweat like a sauna.

I cannot remember where, but I know I've read a scene like that before.

Got a few more pages done on this one, so I'd say it half to 2/3rds done now, I still have scenes with all five wives meeting and Ranma meeting his grandfather for the 1st time. Maybe have Ryoko do some pushing Ayeka on going after Ranma.

Anyway here is the new expanded chapter 14 so far.

ôHa ha.ö Nabiki fake laughs. ôBut seriously, I expect that Shampoo has already told Ukyo that they get to share you.ö æBesides, who knew they could bake explosives into food.Æ Nabiki thinks to herself. æNo one thought of searching inside the food for weapons.Æ

ôAnd how would she know that I would suddenly accept multiple wives?ö Ranma asks Nabiki suspiciously.

Nabiki just hold out her hand and asks for ô500 yen.ö

Rei face palmed and Ami turned beet red as their mutual friend mangled a really bad pick-up line, while Nabiki was thinking about keeping a micro-tape recorder on when around Minako to catch these ... uh ... vocalized brain farts for posterity or blackmail.

-----------------------------------

Out on the porch as the others were helping themselves to the Chinese food and placing orders for their okonomiyaki, Ayeka was looking over Shampoo and thinking of how her hair reminded her of her motherÆs and sisterÆs hair, and that she hadnÆt seen that shade of blue hair on any earth humans before.

Shampoo seeing her interest asks, ôYou like ShampooÆs hair, yes?ö

ôUhn, yes. I havenÆt seen any other people around her with that color of hair.ö Ayeka replies.

ôHmm, it make sense, AmazonÆs not have this color or your color until the daughters and sons of Blossom.ö Shampoo tells her. ôShampooÆs cousin Ling Ling have same color as your hair and can also trace lineage back to Blossom. We get five new colors from Blossom, blue, light blue, purple, green, and pink hair only in those descended from Blossom, others have to make due with the usual black, brown, red, blue-black and blonde.ö


ôAnd how does this make sense?ö Ayeka asks. ôI donÆt see any connection.ö

ôIs simple Princess, the daughters and sons of Blossom were your nieces and nephews.ö Shampoo informs her, bowing to her great to the twentieth power aunt.

Ayeka was stunned by this news, but upon thinking of it realized that her brother Yosho had been on this planet for 700 years and could have had many human wives in that time. But how did Shampoo know about her?

#Snap# went her fingers. ôYouÆre the one that turns into a cat!ö Ayeka exclaims. ôYou were spying on us last night.ö

ôPrincess is very smart, also very nice. Shampoo thanks you for the Sukiyaki beef last night, was very tasty.ö

ôAhhh, donÆt mention it.ö Ayeka replies embarrassed that she had been petting and feeding a girl rather than a cat last night. æI guess it would be odd for the Tendos to have a cat with an Ailurophobic in the house.Æ She thought to herself as she took a bowl of ramen for herself.

ôRegarding spies, Shampoo ask about three girls in woods watching us?ö

ôFriends of the Rei-san, the shrine maiden here. WeÆve been ignoring them all morning.ö Ayeka replies without glancing at the three teenage girls in the bushes. ôEven had to draw Neko-chan away from them a few times.ö

--------------------------------

Lying down behind some bushes, three teenage girls watched the happenings at the Hikawa Shrine.

ôWow, look at all that great looking food.ö The odangoed blonde whines hungrily.

ôQuiet Usagi, you donÆt want them to hear us do you?ö Hisses the girl with shoulder-length red hair.

ôNaruÆs right Usagi, besides you just finished off the bento that I bought for us.ö Makoto whispers.

ôBut that fresh Okonomiyaki that the cute boy is making looks so good.ö Usagi replies.

Naru and Makoto both look at Usagi with that æAre you stupid?Æ look.

ôWhat?ö Usagi demands in a whisper.

ôThatÆs Kuonji Ukyo, possibly the best Okonomiyaki chef in Tokyo, and one of Saotome RanmaÆs other fiancees.ö Makoto tells her.

At UsagiÆs incredulous look Naru whispers ôCrossdresser.ö in UsagiÆs ear.

----------------------------------

Katsuhito was looking over the toppings beside the grill trying to decide what to have on his okonomiyaki and asks, ôHow much for a shrimp okonomiyaki with the spicy sauce?ö

ôFamily discount is always free honored Grandfather, requiring a common ancestor in three generations including in-laws.ö The chef replies with a smile as she starts another spot of batter on the grill.

The old man was shocked at getting a wonderful Kuonji-cooked okonomiyaki for free, in times long past he had paid almost ruinous prices for the delicacy he was getting for free today. ôI once helped drive bandits away from a Kuonji yattai and only received a 30% discount for a week. I had to instruct the chef in new martial techniques to get the price down to something I could afford. Even then I ended up chopping wood for him to get a decent price.ö

Ukyo was shocked to hear this story, since she knew the story as well. ôBut Honored Grandfather, our prices have come down tremendously since that winter 200 years ago when my ancestor Kuonji Hiro stopped at the Masaki Shrine by the Demon RyokoÆs Cave for a week. Why itÆs even said that he offered the demon a free okonomiyaki when and if she could come out of her cave and collect it.ö

Then the woman with stiff, spiky cyan hair spoke up. ôI hope your going to honor his marker girl, cause IÆve been waiting to try one of those ever since Hiro set up his cart right outside of my cave. And this old man would tease me something terrible about how good Kuonji okonomiyaki is by eating it right there where I could see it.ö

ôOf course IÆll honor his marker, he was my great-great ... uh whatever grandfather. So Ryoko isnÆt it? What will you have?ö

ôHmm, how about a large spicy beef, and a medium with pork and shrimp.ö

ôOf course, thatÆll be 850 yen sugar.ö Ukyo replies with a smile.

ôWhat!? But Hiro said/ö Ryoko exclaims before being interrupted.

ôHe only promised one free okonomiyaki to the demon of the cave. The second is full price.ö

ôFine, fine, give me a sec.ö The demon Ryoko says then turns to the young girl with spiny red hair behind her in line. ôUh Washu-chan, IÆm a bit short, could you buy me an okonomiyaki?ö

ôOf course dear, just one condition.ö Washu replies smirking expectantly.

ôBut, but.ö Ryoko sputters as Washu waits, then she gives in and asks. ôPlease Mom?ö

ôJust put the second one on my bill.ö The red-head tells Ukyo.

ôWow! And you look so young!ö Ukyo exclaims in shock.

ôWhy thank you.ö Washu says smiling cutely. ôI take care of my appearance, unlike some whoÆve just let themselves go for the last 700 years.ö

ôI still look fine!ö Ryoko yells at her mother. ôAnd besides I was stuck in a cave!ö

Ukyo places a finished okonomiyaki on a plate in front of Katsuhito and says, ôHere you go Grandfather.ö

ôYeah, about that. When did one of mine marry a Kuonji?ö He asks in curiosity.

ôAbout half an hour ago, or in the next few minutes if he knows whatÆs good for him. Depends on which one and which kiss you want to count.ö She replies with a smirk and a twinkle in her eye as she finishes topping two other okonomiyaki on her grill.

ôAh, the Amazon girl is making her move this soon.ö He remarks. ôSmart girl, one of them got me about the same way.ö Seeing the chef giving him a questioning look he continues. ôMy third wife was an Amazon, the way she got me in the end was by seducing my second wife.ö

Ukyo gapes at him for a second in shock before shrugging. ôWell at least weÆre not fighting over him anymore, I got the idea awhile ago that she wouldnÆt have taken losing well.ö

ôNot unless theyÆve changed their laws recently.ö Katsuhito replies somberly.

ôYeah, thatÆs what I figured. ShampooÆs already cursed, I donÆt want to know whatÆs next.ö Ukyo answers. ôOf course I couldnÆt afford to lose either.ö

ôThat bad?ö

ôBest outcome would be me living out my life as a man after having my revenge on Ranma and his dad for stealing my dowery and abandoning me by the side of the road when I was six.ö Ukyo tells him in a whisper.

The elder Masaki makes a sad face at hearing that. Ryoko and Washu both stare at her a little shocked until Ukyo breaks the moment by asking ôOK, Washu-chan right? WhatÆll you have on yours?ö

---------------------------

ReiÆs Grandfather finally cornered the pretty okonomiyaki waitress as she took a break after finishing setting up the toppings. She had given him a real chase so far ... well not really, he just couldnÆt keep track of her very well. But now she was resting against a tree sipping from a can of juice.

ôYouÆre such a kawaii girl. Wanna work part-time as a shrine maiden?ö The lecherous old priest says flirting shamelessly with the waitress.

ôHmm. It depends on if Ukyo-sama moves her okonomiyaki-ya to this area.ö æSheÆ replies demurely. ôWhere Ranma-sama decides to live next will be the deciding factor.ö

ôWhy is that?ö Akura asks in curiosity.

ôRanma-samaÆs wives will both want to stay very close to him, and he has two new fiancees in this area.ö Konatsu answers.

The priest had to stop and think about what he had just heard. Ranma had two wives when his marriage just yesterday was blown up and failed. Then there was the mention of two new fiancees, while he only knew of one, his granddaughter Rei. Deciding he needed more information he asks, ôI thought that RanmaÆs wedding yesterday was a complete bust. So how does he have two wives?ö

ôOh, thatÆs because of Amazon marriage laws.ö Konatsu explains. ôNo ceremony or paperwork required apparently, just the æKiss of MarriageÆ. According to them Ranma has been married to Shampoo-san for over a year, and now, rather than keep trying to have Ranma-sama to herself, she has decided to marry Ukyo-sama as well. Why she gave Ukyo-sama the Kiss of Marriage just before we came up the steps.ö

ôUh, yeah. Well what about the two new fiancees then?ö ReiÆs grandfather asks fishing for more information. ôI know about my granddaughter Rei of course, but who is the other new fiancee?ö

ôA cousin of the Tendo girls, Ami-san I think. She came here with Nabiki-san from what I heard.ö Konatsu responds uncertainly. ôIÆve met her before, sheÆs really smart and has short blue hair.ö

ôI know her, she is a friend of ReiÆs.ö He says looking back to the house just in time to see Ranma come out with three girls in close proximity. ôI just hope they can stay friends after this.ö

Great, as usual. I'm really glad to see that this story wasn't dropped. It's too good to let go. I like plots like this.

The web of marriage complexity is getting more and more tangled. You may have to take the chance to explain it all to one of the characters in the bushes, if only to help the reader understand the mess.

Glad to see the others there. Sort of surprised they could keep Usagi quiet after telling her about the crossdresser angle for Ukyo.

Then again, this might be post-Starlights.

Cologne was the one who had blue hair. At least in the anime. I don't think any real colors were picked for anyone in the manga, just relatively dark or not.

Was this chapter ever released on FFN or why do I feel like I've read it already?

Well, it's chapter 14 here, but will be numbered fifteen when he releases it to FF.N. Prologues and all that. He's already got 14 there and it's not like this one.
