"Hurry up, Ranma!" Akane Tendo shouted over her shoulder.
"It's your fault why you didn't wake me up!" Ranma Saotome yelled back. "If you want a companioon to school, you should wake me up early!"
"Did I say I needed you for a companion!" Akane shouted at the top of her voice.
"Whatever!" Ranma shouted angrily. "Let's just hurry!"
Finally, the two arrived in their school, Furinkan.
"Tendo! Saotome!" Ranma and Akane's teacher snapped at the two. "Why are you late?"
Ranma and Akane looked daggers at each other, but neither said a word.
"Sit down!" their teacher sighed. "As I was saying, you have two new classmates. Please come in."
The classroom door opened. A boy went in with black hair and a piece of cloth tied around his head, together with a girl with blue hair tied into ponytail like Ranma's.
"Please introduce yourselves," the teacher said.
"My name is Gyo Hibiki," said the boy.
"And I am Rane Saotome," said the girl.
"Ranma!" Akane whispered from across the aisle. "She said-"
"Yes!" Ranma interrupted. "I heard. I'm not deaf!"
Time flied by slowly. At last, the bell that signaled the end of the classes rang.
"Ranma! Go with me!" Akane pleaded Ranma as they packed their things.
"Why must I go to the mall with you?" Ranma asked angrily, "Why don't you ask your friends to go with you?"
"They said they were going somewhere," Akane replied. "Please, Ranma."
"Don't come crying to me for help."
"But your the only one who can go with me!"
"But I don't want to be seen with an uncute and unsexy girl!"
"What!"
A shadow fell upon the arguing(ahem!) couple. Both Ranma and Akane looked up. The shadow was Rane.
"Ranma Saotome," Rane stated. "I challenge you!"
Ranma smiled, "Interesting. I accept."
They headed down to the school grounds where a large crowd of students suddenly surrounded the two fighters.
"I will let you attack first," said Rane politely.
"Fine," Ranma smiled wider. He rushed to Rane, "Kachu Tenshin Amaguriken(Chestnuts Roasting in an Open Fire)!"
Rane smirked and avoided all Ranma's blows.
"Now," Rane said, raising her fists up level to her face. "I shall attack. Kachu Tenshin Amaguriken!"
Ranma's eyes widened in horror. Rane's attack was swifter than his. In one moment, one of Rane's punches hit Ranma in the stomach.
"Is that all you've got?" Rane asked, staring at Ranma with crossed arms and looking disappointed.
"Not yet," Ranma stood up.
Both fought again.
"I recognize that style," Ranma thought after a few minutes. "It's Anything Goes Saotome Style!"
Yes. Both Rane and Ranma were using the Anything Goes, but Rane was much faster. After an hour, Ranma was on his knees, panting, while Rane was just standind there, like she never fought.
"Ranma," Akane muttered, kneeling near him. "Let's go."
"Not . . . yet . . ." Ranma tried to get up.
"That's enough!" Akane said sternly.
"Fine," Ranma stood up, staggering slightly. "We'll settle this some other time." he told Rane.
Ranma and Akane left. A few meters away from the school, Rane caught up to them.
"What are you doing here?" Ranma asked angrily.
"I just want to see your house," said Rane casually.
"Yeah, right."
Thunder rumbled overhead and the sky was covered with dark clouds. Then, it started to rain.
"Oh, shoot!"
Obviously, Ranma turned into a girl. But, to Ranma and Akane's surprise, Rane's hair turned red, just like the color of girl Ranma's hair.
Akane gasped, "Oh my gosh."
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
Soun, Nabiki, Kasumi and Genma were staring at Rane and Ranma, who, side by side, were like twins. Akane went in carrying a kettle of hot water. She poured some on Ranma's head. Ass soon as Akane was finished, Rane took the kettle from her and poured over her(Rane) own head. Rane's hair turned back to blue.
"So, your Rane, right?" Nabiki asked.
"Yes," answered Rane quietly.
"How come you could turn into, uh, a girl that looks like girl Ranma?"
"I got it, from my father," Rane muttered. "He fell in a certain Nannichuan."
"And your surname is Saotome, right?" Genma asked.
"Yes."
"How come?" Genma scratched his head.
Rane took out a photo album from her bag and handed it to Genma. Nabiki, Kasumi and Soun crowded around it, while Ranma wouldn't care less.
Genma gasped, "It's the Tendo dojo! But it seems to have aged . . ."
"Yes, those pictures are taken 22 years from now," Rane muttered.
"What?" Soun turned the page of the album. Kasumi and Nabiki were on the pictures on one side while Soun and Genma playing chess on the other. All four looked older than the present.
"So, who are your parents?" Nabiki looked at Rane, smiling.
"Please turn the page," Rane replied.
They turned the page. There, on one page, was a photograph of Ranma, one arm around Akane's shoulder and the other around Rane. Soun started to cry.
"Look, Saotome, our children are happily married!" Soun showed the picture to Ranma and Akane, who choked.
"What about Gyo?" Akane asked Rane. "You seem to know him."
"She does know me."
They looked up. Gyo was at the doorway, looking down on them.
"Gyo!" Rane exclaimed.
"Ranma Saotome, I am the one who will tell you. I am Gyo Hibiki, the son of your rival, Ryoga Hibiki."
"That guy has a son?" Ranma said, surprised.
"They do look alike . . ." Akane said. "So, what's Gyo got to do with you, Rane?"
"He's . . . he's . . . well, uh, he's . . ." Rane stammered.
"Spill it, Rane before I tell it." Gyo said bossily.
"Oh, shut up, Gyo!" Rane took a deep breath, "You see, Gyo is what my parents were, well, are now."
"You mean Gyo's your fiance?" Ranma asked disbelievingly. "If I have a child, it's certainly not going to be the fiance of Ryoga's son, not a girl, and not the child of that uncute, unsexy, so-called fiancee of mine!"
Rane and Akane looked taken-aback; both with the same expression. Rane bowed her head, while Akane punched Ranma in the stomach.
"Come, Rane. Let's go to my room." Akane took Rane by the hand and went upstairs.
Gyo left with a 'hmph!', and disappeared. Unknown to all of them,

Chan was there, and he had heard the whole conversation.

What will happen to the children from the future! Before that, how did they reach the past? And what happened to the other members of the Ranma 1/2 gang in 22 years(guys like Kuno, Happosai, Mousse, and gals like Kodachi, Ukyo, Shampoo)? All of these will be answered in the next Chapter:To Know the Future.
