"THOUGHTS" !SPECIAL EFFECTS!
Chapter One
"Nabiki! Nabiki!" a familiar voice called out to her in her dreams.
"Mom. Can't I sleep some more?" Nabiki asked in a reflex answer.
"No! I want to talk to you about some things, mainly Ranma," Nabiki's mother said in an admonishing tone.
"Mom? You're alive. Am I dreaming?"
"Yes, Nabiki, you're dreaming. But that doesn't mean I'm not disappointed in you. I know that your father had a nervous breakdown when I 'died' and you had to make money to keep all of you from going into bankruptcy, but some of the things you've done are cruel. Betting is one thing but blackmail? Really."
"But I had to make as much money as possible. You don't understand how hard it is for me to keep us from going broke! It's not just food and board but taxes and many other expenses!"
Nabiki's mother lovingly looked at her for a moment. "Are you truly happy Nabiki? You've spied on people, violating their privacy. You've broken into people's homes planting eaves dropping devices, and you've practically have engaged in child porn by selling half naked pictures of your own sister! Are you proud of everything you've done?"
Nabiki blushed, embarrassed under her mother's loving but stern gaze. "No, but what else can I do?" Nabiki said tearfully. "Father's free loading friend and his son practically eat us out of house and home. Not only that, but Ranma picks fights with all sorts of high powered martial artists who take their frustrations out on our home."
"I won't argue about your father's poor taste in friends but is Ranma really a freeloader? You've not only sold information about Ranma but you've sold half naked pictures of him in his girl form. That being the case, he's indirectly supplying you with income. So don't call that boy a freeloader!"
"I'm sorry!" Nabiki sobbed. "But I had to do a lot of unpleasant things. And most of all I felt so helpless when you 'died', Mother. That and everything that happened after you passed away. I so hate feeling helpless!"
"All right, child. I understand but you have to change. It's not just because you've shamed and humiliated people in the past making them feel helpless. But things are going to change abruptly in the future. Speaking of your happiness, how do you really feel about Ranma?"
Nabiki blushed. "Um, well. I guess I kind of like him a little."
"A little, Nabiki? Have you treated him so badly in order to get him to hate you so you wouldn't have to make your feelings known? You've been in love with him ever since he first got here! But you were freaked out over his trans-gender curse so you and your older sister foisted him on Akane. Was this a way of dealing with the helpless feeling of being in love?
Nabiki demurred for a moment. "Yes, I guess so. But there's nothing I can do about that now. Ranma's in love with Akane. Akane only handed the engagement over to me out of anger towards Ranma. But I still think she's in love with him."
"Do you really think so? Akane also has a lot of issues to deal with but she doesn't know what love is. The boys at her school have all but ruined her for a period of time with them acting as if any one of them would get to take Akane by force if he defeated her in combat. Selling pictures of her didn't help matters, Nabiki."
Nabiki was speechless, not knowing what else to say. Then she looked at her mother begging for forgiveness as her mother went over to her and hugged her tenderly.
"I understand things have been hard on you and your sisters. I'd deal with your father but that's a hopeless cause. Your older sister's been doing the only thing she could do and doing a good job of it; make sure you take care of her. She wants to be a doctor, hence her interest in Dr. Tofu and always borrowing books from him."
"But what can I do that I haven't done already? I know Kasumi takes care of us. I really appreciate all the hard work she's done but what can I do?" Nabiki asked helplessly.
"One of the reasons I'm talking to you now is because both you and Ranma are going to change for the better. Ranma will get a cure for his curse and become more powerful for it; and so will you.
I know you've been training in secret. Soon you'll get a boost in power allowing you to easily surpass the 'Fiancee Brigade'. All will happen in good time. That's why I want you to be a better person. No more shaming and humiliating people who beg for mercy and don't want to incur your wrath. Be good to yourself and your new fiance and to other people, OK, child?"
"But how will I keep our family's finances in the black? I don't want to be mean and cruel to others but what will I do?" Nabiki asked.
"Don't feel helpless, OK. I know deep down you're a good person. I'm not trying to shame you; I just want you to change for the better," her mother said with her eyes rather misty. "OK, child?"
"But how about Akane? I don't think she'll be able to handle seeing Ranma with me."
"I believe you and Ranma are meant to be together. Don't worry about Akane; I'll deal with her."
As her mother faded away a song from America that cheered Nabiki up when her mother died sang resounded in the background. It seemed to be coming from everywhere.
Ooh, ooh, child. Things are gonna to get easier. Ooh, ooh, child. Things will get brighter.
Ooh, ooh, child. Things are gonna to get easier. Ooh, ooh, child. Things will get brighter, oh
Some day. We'll put it together and we'll get it all done. Some day, when your head is much lighter, yeah.
Some day, yeah. We'll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun, yes, we will. Some day when the world is much brighter.
As the song rang out, Nabiki welled up in tears, feeling as if things were going to be OK.

"Truth is, Ranma. I'm in love with you," Nabiki said the next day while they were in her room.
"Well, I don't know what to say to that," Ranma said carefully. !WOOSH! The door to Nabiki's room came flying open.
"You can be with Nabiki for all I care! I'm really not in love with you anyway!" Akane said as she angrily slammed the door to Nabiki's room and stormed off in a huff.
"Fine, Akane!" Ranma yelled back. Are you sure you want to do this, Nabiki?" Ranma asked.
"Yes, Ranma. I really mean it. You and Akane just aren't working out. I've always liked you deep down but your curse scared me off so I foisted you on Akane. That was selfish of me," Nabiki answered.
"I don't know what to do now. I've always thought Ranma was cute but a bit thick headed. I'd have more respect for him if he wasn't such an idiot."
" But I'm surprised Akane doesn't want him back. Maybe Mother did talk to her. But just to be sure. I'll be more affectionate with Ranma in front of her. This way if there are any issues or arguments we'll have them out right now."
"Well, Ranma, I guess it's you and me. I guess we should walk to school together. Since we're engaged how about kissing me?" Nabiki offered as she motioned towards him.
"Um, maybe later. I think we need to get to school now," Ranma said nervously as Nabiki took his arm in hers. Then they left. Akane watched them go a little upset but more relieved.
"I hope they'll be happy. I now know that Ranma and I couldn't have made it together. The engagements to other women really bothered me. And I hate coming off as a jealous bitch, especially after the way my mother told me off in that dream I had last night," Akane thought to herself as she left for school.

"What does this say?" Ukyo read the announcement with a sense of shock and surprise, balling the piece of paper and destroying it with one hand.
"Did you hear what happened?" a girl said to another.
"Yes. Akane's no longer engaged to Ranma!"
"Really? Gasp!"
There were hundreds of pieces of paper, announcing that Ranma was engaged to Nabiki instead of Akane. "Are you sure you know what you're doing, Nabiki?" Akane asked her older sister as she walked over to her.
"Yes. If this bothers you just say so, Akane. Now's the time to stake your claim on Ranma. I want to make that clear. Once things reach a certain point I'm not going to let him go. You remember that. I'm not going to let him go."
Akane paused for a moment. "No, Nabiki. I've given Ranma up for good. It's for the best. My real concern is for you. Do you really think you can take on Shampoo, Ukyo and Kodachi, Nabiki? Those three are skilled martial artists. I hope you plan to start training really hard."
"I'll be all right, Akane. My only concern is you."
"If that's true you don't have to worry about it. I hope your martial arts skills aren't too rusty." With that Akane walked off.
"Hey, it's Akane!" a boy called out.
"What do you want?!" Akane turned around, noticing the two dozen or so boys coming at her.
"I love you!" a boy in a baseball players uniform called out as he swung his bat at her, missing as she ducked, countering with a roundhouse kick to his head, cracking the boy's batting helmet and sending him to the ground unconscious. In seconds more boys were upon her. In time Akane stood over the boys who were all on the ground unconscious.

When school was over and her business had finished, Nabiki had tried to sneak away but after walking a few blocks she had company.
"There she is!" Kodachi called out as she and the other members of the Fiancee Brigade made their way their prey.
"Sorry, ladies. Gotta go!" Nabiki said, running.
"You no get away!"
"That's right. She doesn't have a chance against us!"
But despite all this, Nabiki moved with a great deal of speed and agility, deftly avoided the attacks her pursuers threw at her, making her way into a construction site which had a lot of equipment, dirt and material around. !CRACK!SMASH! "It will be fairly easy to evade these people with all the stuff here to get in their way. But I don't know how long I can keep up this pace."
Ukyo, Shampoo and Kodachi chased after the fleet footed mercenary, but couldn't get through all the debris and material that was in their way. As Nabiki fled and dodged, she got further and further away until finally. !BOOM! "That smoke bomb I threw ought to keep them occupied for a while. I'm glad I took the time to learn how to hide things in subspace. I figured that skill would come in handy."
"Cough, cough. Where did she go?" Ukyo called out as she swung her giant spatula blindly in the fog of dust.
"Ow! You hit Shampoo!" !POW!
"Foolish harridan! You've struck me!"
"Let go of me, ya scalawag!" !SLAM!

Later that day, back at the Tendo household. "Are you in love with Ranma or not?" Kasumi asked Nabiki while Ranma was hiding from them, eavesdropping.
"I am, but we'll have to see what happens," Nabiki answered. "I kind of doubt too much will happen though. Ranma's such an idiot. And I have a hard time seeing myself with someone like that."
"So she thinks I'm an idiot, does she? I'll have to show her I'm a lot smarter than she thinks I am!" Ranma thought to himself.
A few moments later Ranma approached Nabiki. "Nabiki, we need to talk. Let's go outside where we can have some privacy," Ranma suggested.
Nabiki looked at him for a moment. "OK, but it's cold outside. We can talk in my room; no one will hear us from there," Nabiki answered.
When Ranma and Nabiki had gotten in her room the discussion started. "Why do you think I'm an idiot, Nabiki? Do you despise me that much?" Ranma asked.
Nabiki had a look of surprise for a moment then her poker face reappeared. "Well, you heard. I'm sorry, Ranma, but it's true. You may be the best martial artist in the world but you're not that smart. It may be your father's fault due to the way he raised you but you seem incapable of doing much of anything else. You do horribly in school and can't use your vaunted martial arts to make any money."
"Do you know how much it costs in order too keep this whole household? It costs a lot. And that was before you and your freeloading father came to live with us. Do you plan on having a family? If you have a family how will you take care of them? I know I come off as a gold digging bitch but I'm just realistic about finances. Did it ever occur to you to enter in some tournaments for our school? Or at least taking part in underground fighting tournaments where you could not only take on tough martial artists but make money as well?"
"The art isn't about money; it's about being the best," Ranma interjected.
"There are martial artists whose skills are less than one tenth as good as yours yet they've managed to make enough money from their martial arts to take care of themselves and their families."
"What do you mean? I'm really not a freeloader. You make plenty of money off of me by taking pictures of me in my male and female form," Ranma answered.
"Yes, but I had sneak up on you or wait until you were asleep. I would have had more respect for you if you had gone off and figured out how to make money off of your female form by yourself. But that never occurred to you. I don't think you're a such bad guy but money is important, more important than you realize. There's nothing wrong with 'the art' but most things cost money. You and your father are clueless about that," Nabiki said.
"I'm not clueless about money. And I knew you were taking pictures of me. I didn't make a big deal about it because I understood my father and I were increasing your expenses. But I resent being called a freeloader," Ranma stated with his arms folded around his chest.
"All right. I'm sorry about that. Maybe I can make it up to you somehow," Nabiki said repentantly. "But I'm not backing down when it comes to money and finances. I wish you would understand that."
"I get it already! But I was wondering. Did it ever occur to you to take pictures of yourself? You're better looking than Akane. I'm sure the guys would fall over themselves to get half naked pictures of you," Ranma said with raised eyebrows.
"I'm the ice queen, remember? Most people at school fear me. So that wouldn't work. But at least you're thinking a little," Nabiki responded.
"Yeah, but I was thinking about maybe selling pictures of yourself on the Internet. Selling to American guys could net you a great deal of money. You could be the ice queen that some men would want to have melt in their arms," Ranma said.
"Hmmm. That might work. Selling some pictures of your female form to America would be a good idea as well. It's surprises me that a dimwit like you could even think in such a manner."
"Hey! I'm not a dimwit! Don't call me that!" Ranma said defensively.
"Or what?! You won't do anything," Nabiki said defiantly with a pout.
"Oh really? I can read body language and can find weaknesses in people. So I know a few things about you," Ranma said with a pleased look on his face.
"Oh? What would that be?" Nabiki snorted. "You don't know anything about me that I haven't allowed you to know."
"I'll tell you. First off, you have been training in the art for a long time. You're actually better than Akane when it comes to skill and speed. All Akane has on you is strength and power."
"You've also have learned other fighting techniques like commando training, wrestling and some tae kwon do. You're also well trained in acrobatics, breakfall and escaping holds and bindings. You're more of a street-fighter than a traditional martial artist but you're still very good."
"You're in a lot better shape and condition than anyone realizes. You've also been doing yoga and exercises that make you more agile and flexible. You can also run, leap and swim a lot faster than you've let on."
"I've heard of some fighters selling books, tapes and DVDs on martial arts and street fighting techniques. I would have thought such things were worthless but I've seen the tapes and books in your room. You've obviously added these maneuvers to your martial arts," Ranma stated matter of factually.
"You've been snooping in my room and spying on me? How dare you do something like that? But you said something about weaknesses; I don't have any," Nabiki stated with confidence as she walked up to Ranma and slapped him gently. She tried to follow up but all her other attacks failed.
"I said you were better than anyone else knows but not as good as me. And as far as your weakness goes I'll show you," Ranma said as he grappled Nabiki and pinned her down.
"All right. I'm admit I'm more capable than I've let on but with all the nut bar martial artists running around I had to have a little bit of insurance just in case. But I don't have any weakness. I'm surprised you would actually spy on me like that but you're still not that bright. So either show me this 'weakness' or let me go!" Nabiki ordered.
"All right."
"Ha ha ha ha! Stop that!" Nabiki pleaded, giggling helplessly without restraint as Ranma's hands gently and carefully did their work.
"You're ticklish, Nabiki. There's a particular area where you're extremely ticklish. Let's see. Where was that spot?"
"Not there, please!" As she laughed uninhibitedly, she came, bursting out of the tight vest she was wearing. !POP!POP!POP!
"Do you still think I'm a dimwit, hmmm?" Ranma asked as Nabiki tried to squirm out of his grasp only to cause her vest to come off all together.
"He he he he he he he! All right! All right! Ha ha ha ha! Mercy!" Nabiki giggled helplessly as her body went pink. When Ranma finally stopped, Nabiki's bosom was heaving as she breathed heavily almost exhausted. "Whew! You're a lot more cunning than I thought, Ranma, but shouldn't you have bought me dinner first? " Nabiki gasped as she looked up at him.
"You've already made a lot of money off me. I don't like you calling I'm a dimwit but I'll forgive you. You're absolutely adorable and irresistible when you're begging for mercy. Why are your arms folded around your chest? It's not like you to be shy," Ranma said lovingly as he was leaning over her.
"I had no idea I was so ticklish, all right? Sheesh! I'm so embarrassed," Nabiki answered still pink and breathing heavily. "You practically rendered me helpless even if you were gentle about it. I don't know whether or not I want to be rendered helpless."
"You know you love it," Ranma said caressing her thighs gently.
"Oooh," Nabiki moaned getting more comfortable. "You really know how to touch a woman. Why didn't you try to touch Akane in the same manner? She would have melted in your arms."
"Akane wouldn't let me anywhere near her. It just wasn't working with Akane; she still has issues. And I think deep down you wanted to be rendered helpless as long you were treated right. In fact, being loving and gentle towards is the best way to make you helpless. You've put up a shield being the ice queen for years. As long as I love and cherish you, you won't be able to resist me," Ranma said with a loving smile.
"I guess you're right. I've always wanted to be loved. And I've been secretly in love with you for a while. Your honor and strength made you desirable. I thought you were cute the first day I saw you. But your curse frightened me off. I'm OK with that now. Let's kiss," Nabiki said as she put her arms around him and rubbed her chest against his.
As lips got closer, Kasumi opened the door and was shocked by what she saw. "Oh, my!" Kasumi said when she saw Ranma on top of a topless Nabiki and about to kiss her.
Nabiki looked up at Kasumi and smiled sheepishly. "Yes, Kasumi, what is it?"
"Dinner is almost ready. I thought I'd let you know," Kasumi said still with a shocked look on her face.
"All right. Thanks for telling us. We'll be right there," Nabiki answered. Then Kasumi closed the door and left them.
"I'm far too comfortable being with you right now which shows how lonely I was. I don't mind being your fiancee but what are we going to do about the Fiancee Brigade?" Nabiki asked as she looked up at him.
"I guess I can train you. All you need is more power and toughness. I'll help you build these abilities up. But we should start as soon as possible," Ranma answered. "But I'll have to settle the fiancee problem once and for all."
"That's good. But I meant what I said about making money. As much as I like being in your arms, money's still important."
"I'll think of something," Ranma answered. Then the two of them got up, got dressed and went downstairs for dinner.

The next day Ranma and Nabiki were going off to the mountains to do some training and more importantly to upgrade Nabiki's strength and toughness. On the way there an old man walked up to them.
"Hey there! You're that guy who turns into a girl. Aren't you? Well, I have a cure for you if you're interested. The earth will be needing some powerful fighters really soon," the old man said.
The old man was Dr. Brief, Bulma Brief's father. He had seen most of Ranma's life from his personal satellite that was up in space videotaping much of Ranma's life from when he got cursed. He had enjoyed the "show" more than the sitcoms he watched. He had also hired private investigators to gather information on Ranma out of curiosity.
Bulma had told him aliens would be coming to destroy the earth so he figured someone with Ranma's capabilities would be helpful. He knew Ranma hated his curse so he had figured out a way to help him get his cure.
"What is the price? I know nothing is for free," Ranma asked suspiciously. "This old man is probably crazy."
"A year from now there'll be some aliens coming to destroy the earth. We'll need everyone we can find to help us against this threat. Now I can help you with..."
Ranma had started walking away as soon as he heard the word aliens. "I knew it. This old man is a nutcase." "Come on, Nabiki, let's get out of here."
"Where have I seen that guy before?" Nabiki thought to herself as she walked off with Ranma.
"Now wait, young man. I can help you. Just come to my lab at Capsule Corp. Once we're there I can help you." At this point Nabiki spoke up, finally recognizing Dr. Briefs of Capsule Corp whom she knew was filthy rich.
"Sure he'll show up. I'm his manager and fiancee, Nabiki Tendo. Saving the world from aliens is a good thing. But I'll have to charge ten million yen for his services," Nabiki said, figuring Dr. Briefs would barter the price down.
Nabiki was shocked when she heard Dr. Briefs say "will a check be OK? To whom do I write the check out?" Ranma looked at Nabiki then shrugged in resignation.
"It's good if you come along too. The experiment will be more successful if there's someone else besides Ranma there for it," Dr, Briefs said to Nabiki. "I'll give you the check after it's all over."
"WOW! Things are getting better! Maybe Mother was right. Once we get this money I won't have to sneak around and do all the bad things I've done."
Dr. Brief took out a capsule and it turned into a small hovercraft. Then he motioned them to come aboard. Once they got in, they were off.

When they arrived at Capsule Corp., Dr. Briefs showed them around. "These people are loaded! No wonder Dr. Briefs was willing to part with so much money; it was a drop in the bucket to him," Nabiki thought as the size of the building impressed her. "It's so much bigger on the inside than it appears to be on the outside."
"Daddy, who are they? Bulma asked with her mother and Dr. Brief's wife, Bunny Briefs, who was also curious.
"This is Ranma Saotome and his manager, Nabiki Tendo," the doctor explained.
"Is this the guy you've been watching on the satellite hook up?" Bunny Briefs asked.
"Yes, this is him. Now I'm going to help him with his cure and make him stronger. He's agreed to help Goku fight those aliens who will be here a year from now."
"Is that why you had the dragonballs already gathered and made that wish about being able to cure a guy named Ranma of his curse?" Bulma asked.
"Yes, that's right," Dr. Briefs answered.
"You realize it will be another year before we can find and use the dragonballs again!" Bulma said a little perturbed.
"Don't worry about it. Ranma will be able to handle things until Goku arrives, especially after I've experimented on him to make him even stronger," the doctor explained.
"He doesn't look like much. I can't see him being much help to Goku," Bulma said as she regarded the pigtailed boy.
"Hey! I'm the best! I don't know who this Goku is, but I'll be more than just a help to him. I may beat up those aliens before this Goku guy even gets here!" Ranma stated with pride.
"That's the spirit!" Dr. Briefs said. "Let's get to the lab. After you get your cure I'll show you some of the things Goku has done. Then you can practice some of his techniques."
"New techniques? Sure! Let's get on with me getting my cure!" Ranma said happily as they went to the lab that Dr. Brief had prepared for him.
"Now both of you get on the table. Ranma, lay down here. Nabiki lay down there. Now I'll strap you guys in and..."
"Wait a minute!" Nabiki stopped. "I did not agree to have myself used as a guinea pig for your crackpot experiment!"
"Oh, you want more money? All right. Will 100,000,000 yen be okay? When I get rid of Ranma's female form it has to go somewhere. So it will go to you. You'll have a percentage of skills and abilities of his female form plus some of the increased power he'll have when I've juiced him up," the doctor answered.
"What's the matter Nabiki? Don't you want all that money?" Ranma asked coyly.
"Okay, I'll do it!" Nabiki answered, practically drooling all over herself, thinking about that money.
When Ranma and Nabiki were strapped in the doctor injected Ranma with something. Ranma felt a little bit of a jolt but nothing else. Then the doctor pulled a lever and Ranma and Nabiki thought they were being electrocuted. It wasn't really that painful but it made them feel tingly. During the process Ranma's female form appeared in astral form and went into Nabiki. Their clothes ripped as the both of them increased in muscle mass and height. Then it was over.
Ranma was now five feet ten inches tall weighing 200 pounds. He had a physique that a bodybuilder would envy with 18 inch arms, a great deal of muscular definition and was much better looking than before.
Nabiki had become five feet six inches tall weighing 135 pounds. Her new measurements were a 38 inch triple D bust, a 26 inch waistline and 37 inch hips. Her hair was a golden brown, longer and more luxurious making her all together more beautiful than she had been before. Her body was muscular but not too muscular. But despite the change in her appearance Nabiki was still recognizable.
"Well, so how do both of you feel?" the doctor asked. Ranma noticed a full length mirror and went to it. He liked what he saw as He began to flex his muscles and admire himself in the mirror once he had taken off the remnants of his torn shirt.
"I've never felt better in my life!" Ranma said, sounding more manly and powerful. His voice was very impressive, sounding a little like Arnold Schwarzenegger.
After all this had happened Bulma and her mom walked into the lab. "Wow! What a hunk!" Bulma and her mom exclaimed as they walked in the lab and saw Ranma. Nabiki also sighed, smiling at the view of Ranma's new physique, almost coming out the shreds of her clothing with each breath.
Ranma noticed their admiration and said, "it's very obvious that they can't take their eyes off my beautiful, muscular body." He then did a bodybuilding pose for them causing them to swoon.
"I look like a comic book superhero chick from America. And I'm way more powerful as well. Is this what my mother was talking about when she said I'd be able to stand up to the 'Fiancee Brigade'?" Nabiki thought to herself as she flexed a little and admired herself in another full length mirror.
"What did you do? Did you put Ranma and Nabiki on steroids?" Bulma asked incredulously while still admiring Ranma.
"Well, yes. I added a little of that but it's mostly Goku's DNA that made both of them so much more powerful. That's also why Nabiki looks so drop dead gorgeous," Dr. Briefs said, practically drooling all over himself.
"Now, Ranma. Ranma?" Dr. Briefs called out as Ranma was still flexing and admiring himself in the mirror. Ranma then turned around and regarded the doctor.
"Yes. I am very grateful for your help but there's one final test." !SPLASH! "Yes! I didn't change back!"
"That's great, Ranma! I'm glad you got your cure. I now have the power and skills to deal with the Fiancee Brigade. So everything will work out," Nabiki said happily.
"I can understand why you injected Ranma with Goku's blood. But why would you inject him with steroids?" Bulma whispered to her father.
"That was so that Ranma would be a lot stronger. I know he wanted to be more manly. Well, now he is. He's better built than any bodybuilder champion I've ever seen. The steroids I added were minimal; I also made sure that there wouldn't be any of the bad side effects that happen when someone takes steroids. They'll be a little more aggressive than before but as long as neither of them have any unusual psychological problems everything will be fine."
"But It's Goku's blood that's given him his new physical gifts. That's also what's given Nabiki her new physical assets. And Nabiki is so hot with her long luscious hair and her curvaceous body. If I was twenty years younger I'd have my hands all over her. I want me some of that. Heh, heh," Dr. Briefs said still admiring Nabiki's new form, drooling all over himself.
"Where's my money?" Nabiki asked walking over to the doctor with her hand out.
"Maybe you should put something on. Your clothes are all torn up. You're practically giving my father a free show," Bulma said as she noticed her father's reaction.
"I'm not worried about that. I'm more concerned about my money. Show me the money. Show me the moneyyyy!" Nabiki proclaimed as she looked down expectantly at Dr. Briefs.
Dr. Briefs looked her up and down with a huge smile on his face noticing that Nabiki was practically bursting out of what little was left of her torn shirt with a healthy expanse of her amply endowed physique showing as she moved. Even her shorts had torn up exposing her perfectly formed thighs and hips. "Huh? Oh, yes! Let me see. Where did I put my checkbook? Oh, here it is." He then wrote the check for Nabiki and handed it to her.
"It's worth that much just to see the view I'm getting. Heh, heh!" Dr. Briefs thought to himself. "Now, Ranma, I want to show you some videos of Goku so you can master flight and ki blasts."
"Yes, of course," Ranma answered. "I just can't get over it! Not only am I cured of my curse but I'm bigger, better, badder!"
Once they were in the video room, Ranma and Nabiki watched the videos of Goku fighting all sorts of opponents. "This guy's good. I surely couldn't have beaten him before. I don't know if I could beat him now. I'll have to train really hard. Once the crisis of those aliens are over I'll challenge this guy to a fight."
"I gotta hand it to ya, Doc. I thought all that talk of aliens was bunk but after seeing that green guy with the weird ears it's obvious that you were being straight with me. And I really appreciate curing my curse. Now, let's see about learning those techniques."

Ranma and Nabiki had spent a few days there training with Ranma training very hard. He even modified the tenshin amaguriken so he could kick with it as well. He eventually was able to fight in a Dragonball Z manner(being able to throw countless punch and kick combinations, block and counter attack at the same time.)
Flying and shooting off ki energy blasts were easy for Ranma to learn. These techniques were even easy for Nabiki since she had absorbed some of Ranma's ability to learn martial arts techniques quickly. Because of everything that happened with her transformation, she was more determined to master the techniques and increase her martial arts skills. She didn't train as hard as Ranma but she did train hard.
After about a week they had mastered how to fly and shoot ki blasts Ranma said, "I'll have no problem becoming even stronger than I am now. I'll be back here in a year. Don't worry about it. I'll beat those aliens up when they get here."
"Maybe we should make a copy of those tapes so you can keep watching and learning from them," Bulma suggested. "Also, if you have any problems with anything, here is our phone number."
"All right. Thanks. I'll be just fine. Now it's time to go. Asta la vista, baby!" Ranma said as he flew off with Nabiki trailing behind.
When they were gone, Bulma asked her father "did you put some of the DNA of that governor from California into Ranma as well?"
"Well, maybe a little," Dr. Briefs said as Bulma and her mother face faulted. "Hey! It gave him more charisma! Besides, it was only a simulation of his DNA," Dr. Briefs answered.
"Oh, I almost forgot. Will they grow tails in the future and turn into giant gorillas when they see a full moon?" Bulma asked with concern.
"Oh no. I made sure that wouldn't happen. They don't have the tails or anything like that. But I think Ranma actually has more raw talent in martial arts. He'll be able to slow these aliens down until Goku arrives," Dr. Briefs said.

"Hey Ranma! Slow down a little. You're flying too fast for me!" Nabiki called out. "My voice! It sounds sultry and somewhat imposing. I knew I looked better but I didn't think I'd sound this good!"
"Look! We are here!" Ranma said as he touched down right in front of the Tendo household with Nabiki landing right behind him. Akane scowled as they touched down.
"Where have you been?!" Akane screamed. "What have you been doing with Nabiki? And why are you both so much bigger?"
"It is a long story. We'll explain it later. Right now I want to have something to eat," Ranma said as he walked by Akane ignoring her.
"Nabiki, what happened to you?"
"I made a deal for some money. I have to go inside and cash this check I just got. Excuse me," Nabiki said as she seemed to zoom right past her. In a few minutes Nabiki walked outside and flew off in direction of the bank.
"What is going on?" Akane asked herself, her jaw dropping as she watched Nabiki fly off.

"Where were you, boy?!" Genma interrogated Ranma as he saw him walk in. You've been gone for days! Been slacking off from your training? Let's see how soft you've gotten."
"I'm not soft; I am hard." Ranma easily avoided Genma's attacks. Then Ranma grabbed Genma and flew outside with him. "We will fight out here," Ranma stated with authority.
"What happened to you, boy? I hope you don't think taking steroids will make you a better martial artist. All that bulk and muscle will just slow you down."
"I'm not taking steroids. I am just more muscular and manly. You will see what happens when I kick your fat ass all over the place. My muscles don't slow me down. If anything I am faster," Ranma responded.
Genma got hit from all sides as Ranma moved in at super speed, his after images making it seem as if he was everywhere. fortuneately for Genma, Ranma held back on his father hitting him just hard enough to make him feel some pain. Once Genma began to get woozy from the beating he was getting, Ranma threw him into the koi pond. "Maybe you would be a better martial artist if you weren't such fat tub of lard. I think you should go on a diet and lose about seventy-five pounds," Ranma said while folding his arms on his massive chest, looking at his now panda father.
Genma then splashed some of the koi pond water on Ranma which Ranma could have dodged but allowed himself to get wet. "What happened, boy?" Genma's signs said. "How come you're not changing? And what happened to your voice?"
"I got my cure. So I am a lot more manly now," Ranma said as he did a bodybuilding pose. "So don't tell me I've been slacking off, you fat tub of lard!"
After dousing himself with hot water Genma spoke up "How dare you speak to your father that way?! Now I want to know how you got yourself cured and what turned you into a steroid monster."
"I'm not taking steroids. A professor experimented on me so now I no longer turn into a girl. In fact I am way more masculine. Now I need to get something to eat; I'm starving."
"Dinner will be ready in a ten minutes," Kasumi said when she heard Ranma. Then her eyes went wide when she saw him. "Oh my! If Nabiki and Akane don't like you, I'll do my duty for my family and.."
"No need for that!" Nabiki said as she landed in front of them. "Besides, I'm more of a match for Ranma anyhow."
Kasumi looked at Nabiki, surprised at her sister's new physique. "Oh my!"
Ranma smiled as Kasumi went back into the kitchen. Then he walked into the house arm and arm with Nabiki.
On their way to wash up before dinner Soun noticed them and looked at them both in amazement and concern. "Ranma, what possessed you take steroids and give them to my daughter as well?"
"We didn't take steroids, Daddy! We'll explain it all later at dinner," Nabiki said as they went to wash up.

At dinner time Nabiki explained what had happened at Dr. Briefs and how Ranma had promised to help them and the world by taking on some aliens a year from now.
"Oh, well. That makes sense. I guess we can be proud of you, son," Soun said with pride as everyone looked at Ranma in surprise.
"I am not worried. I will train hard for that day. I've also learned some new techniques. I always learn techniques quickly. And now I am a whole lot stronger," Ranma said as he expanded his chest with pride.
Everyone was only a little surprised when Ranma ate a little more than he normally did. But they were surprised to see Nabiki eat a lot more than she normally did. "Oh, my! I hope we don't run out of food anytime soon," Kasumi said with obvious concern.
"Don't worry about food, Kasumi. We got a lot of money when Ranma and I was away. So I'll give you money for food and anything else. I also have some plans to make more money. So it's no problem," Nabiki said after dinner was over. Then she handed Kasumi a huge wad of bills. "Feel free to get something nice for yourself, too. I know you work hard so you can treat yourself."
"Oh my! Nabiki, you've never had this much money! Did you do something illegal? Have you been selling steroids or some other performance enhancement drugs?" Kasumi asked with a worried look on her face.
"No, Kasumi, I haven't. I got the money from the Capsule Corp. They gave us this money after Dr. Briefs experimented on us. That's why we're as big as we are now. All Ranma has to do is help out when the aliens show up. I don't think they're really aliens. I suspect they're just powerful martial artists who have been mutated or modified somehow."
"Oh! That's makes perfect sense to me. I feel so much better knowing you're not doing anything illegal," Kasumi said. "Now, it's time for me to go shopping. If you and Ranma are going to be eating so much I better stock up."

At school the next day the boys went after Akane and got clobbered as usual. But some of the boys admired Nabiki's new physique. The girls at school noticed how much bigger Ranma and more muscular Ranma was. Many of them stared at him. "Hello, everyone! How are you?!" Ranma said, greeting everyone.
"How about if I take pictures of you and charge everyone for them? We can make a load of money that way," Nabiki calculated.
"That will be fine. But I think you should also take some pictures of yourself. I'm sure the guys here would love to see your gorgeous, sexy body," Ranma answered with a smile.
Nabiki blushed a little. "Yes, well, they'll have to pay a lot of money for that. Hmmm. I have some other business to take care of so I'll see you later."
"Boss, some of the guys here want to know where you got your steroids from. They're willing to pay top dollar for whatever you have," Mako Takagawa, one of her flunkies said to her. Mako was a big guy who worked out with weights to become a bodybuilder. He was five feet eight inches tall weighing 175 pounds. He took martial arts as well but mostly for the aerobic exercise he got from the training.
"I am not on steroids. But maybe I can play this to my advantage. I might just buy some performance enhancement supplements, the ones that really work. Tell your friends I'll look into it."
At that moment Ryoga came running towards the school. "Where are you Ranma? I know you're here, you coward! Show yourself!"
"I am here!" Ranma said as he appeared right in front of Ryoga, surprising him with his new found speed. Ryoga was even more surprised at the fact that Ranma was much bigger and stronger towering over him.
"What do you want, little man!" Ranma said in a much deeper voice than Ryoga was used to hearing from him. At that point, Ryoga looked up at Ranma and attacked hitting Ranma several times while Ranma didn't flinch, standing there. "You are beginning to annoy me," Ranma said as he backhanded Ryoga knocking him a couple of blocks away.
!SMASH! "Bakusai Tenketsu!" the pig boy screamed as he made his way back, ready to attack Ranma again. "This isn't over, Ranma! I'll still defeat you!"
Ranma stood still and when Ryoga charged into him he felt as if he had slammed into a wall. !SLAM! "Ow! What are you made of anyway?"
"I'm made of muscle and steel and I'm way too strong for you. I need to train against someone who can actually make me work up a sweat; that is obviously not you. Now go away," Ranma said ignoring Ryoga.
"How dare you dismiss me in such a manner. I'm gonna just..." !CRACK! Ranma struck Ryoga knocking him out. Ranma then strutted towards class as the girls swooned over him.

Later that day Nabiki was confronted by Ukyo. "Ah'm going to have to beat you up and take Ranchan away from you, sugah. You ain't a fighter. I don't know where you got your steroids from. But all that muscle will just slow you down," Ukyo said as she whipped out her spatula.
Nabiki surprised Ukyo as she moved with speed and a fighting style similar to Ranma. And to top it off Nabiki's muscular physique did not slow her down one bit. After a several missed swipes from Ukyo's spatula Nabiki finally blasted Ukyo with a ki blast, knocking her off her feet. Ukyo landed back on her feet and ran towards Nabiki swinging her spatula, mkaing figure eights in the air with it. Nabiki sidestepped Ukyo's attacks and hit her with several punch and kick combinations which made Ukyo slump to the ground; then Nabiki grabbed her by the neck.
"Now listen up and listen good. Yes, I'm engaged to Ranma, And no, he doesn't want to marry you. He only sees you as a friend. That's why I'm not going to seriously hurt you. But don't push me! Now run along," Nabiki said to her.
"I can't just let Ranchan go. I'm his fiancee," Ukyo said half awake.
"You attack me at your peril, Ukyo!" Nabiki said as she dropped Ukyo to the ground.

As Nabiki was flying home, Kodachi confronted her, leaping fast enough to keep up with her. "Ho ho ho ho!" So you've been taking steroids, have you? No matter. I'll defeat you anyway."
"Oh, go away, Kodachi; you bother me," Nabiki answered without slowing down or speeding up, pretty much ignoring her.
"Don't you dare dismiss me! I know that you are now engaged to my beloved Ranmasama. I also know you're not a fighter like Akane. So have at thee!" Kodachi called out as she attacked with her ribbon.
Nabiki evaded the ribbon and flew towards Kodachi and grabbed her by the throat. "You're right about one thing. I'm not a fighter like Akane; I'm a lot better. Now get out of here!" Nabiki said as she kicked Kodachi into the stratosphere.

Nabiki kept flying home as Shampoo leaped off of her bike and attacked her. Nabiki evaded this attack and as Shampoo flew by she tagged her with a ki blast.
"Aiyaaaah!" Shampoo screamed as she was flying back several feet. She then landed on her feet and leaped forward, attacking Nabiki again. Nabiki hit Shampoo with a roundhouse kick that stunned her. Then she grabbed Shampoo and said, "listen, bimbo! I've fallen in love with Ranma. Got it? Now get out of here!"
Nabiki shoved Shampoo away and kept on moving. "You is obstacle. Obstacle is for killing!" Shampoo said as she tried to charge into Nabiki and missed. Nabiki tripped Shampoo causing her to fly into the air and land on the ground with a thud. When Shampoo got up Nabiki appeared right in front of her.
"Run along Shampoo. I know all about the kiss of death. We'll just say this fight was inconclusive. But if you keep on attacking me I'll decisively kick your ass. Then if you try to kill me, I'll kill you instead!" Nabiki threatened while the wind blew her long golden brown hair back and added to her presence.
"How did Nabiki get so strong all of a sudden? I'll have to tell Great Grandmother about this." With that Shampoo got on her bike and left.

Ranma flew off into the mountains to train after having reviewed the videos of Goku and practicing what he had seen. He had made certain that no one was there to get hurt or in his way.
But despite making sure no one was there, someone was there watching him. "Ranma! What happened to you?!" Happosai asked as he splashed Ranma with some water. Happosai then quickly flew into Ranma's chest. !SLAM! "Ow!" Happosai shook out the cobwebs as he felt as if he had been slammed into a brick wall.
What?! Where did those beautiful Ranmachan breasts go to?!" Happosai said in frustration as he patted Ranma down.
Ranma immediately swatted Happi away. "You better get out of here while you still can, old man!" Ranma threatened as he attempted to hit Happosai with a ki blast.
Happosai maneuvered out of the way and said, "what have you done, Ranma? Have you been taking steroids or something? Is that why my beautiful Ranmachan is gone?" Happi said, almost sobbing.
"She is gone. You'll never see her again. I am all man now. I am cured! And haven't been taking steroids. I am just more muscular," Ranma answered. "Now, get out of here. I don't have time to deal with you."
Happi regarded Ranma for a moment. "Where did you get all that power from? I can tell you're not just a steroid king," Happi inquired.
"It was the same place I got my cure. Now, begone! I have some serious training to do!"
"Not so fast, sonny boy! I want some answers. I can tell your DNA is different. You didn't just get cured and get turned into a steroid monster; you're something more. You're a lot more powerful than you ever were! And I want to know how!"
"You're right about me being more powerful. And to tell you the truth, I never liked you anyway. So I'll tell you one last time. Get out of here!" Ranma yelled as he shot ki blasts at him.
"Owww!" Happosai screamed as a ki blast struck home, knocking the old man into the air head over heals. "Ranma's a lot faster than he was before despite all that steroid powered bulk. He reminds me of someone I encountered some time ago. Who was that spiked haired guy; what was his name? Now I remember. His name was Goku. Master Roshi told me about him when I was at his house watching hot babes on television."
"Ranma's aura is similar to Goku's. How did he get Goku's power? If he's anything like Goku Ranma will get even more powerful with every fight. So if I want to defeat this guy I'll have to do it now."
"You think you're so tough, Ranma? You want training? I got your training. I got your training right here!" Happosai called out as he and Ranma faced each other.
