	The Party's Over
	Prelude
	By: P-R-P-Chan

	Ryouga stumbled through the barren wastelands of.. somebody's backyard,
thinking to himself.  'Why can't I ever get where I'm going? Just one more
day.. I'll never make it.  All I want to do is have Akane there for it, but
I'll never find her.' Grumbling to himself in depression, the lost boy
stumbled past the Tendou home.

	Kasumi set the food down on the table, but stared Ranma down as he tried to
start eating. (note: this didn't stop Genma).  "Ranma, I'm pretty sure you
know this, after all Ryouga is YOUR friend, but it's his birthday tommorow,
so I was thinking we could have a little party for him with all of his friends."
	Ranma, for his part, was about to get into one of his outburtst about
Ryouga not being his friends, how he's always trying to kill him, and the
fact that he was one of the dumbest people he knew, when Akane elbowed him
in the gut.  "Oh that would be nice Kasumi!" Akane said happily, "I think I
know the perfect gift for him also!"
	"What's it matter? He'll never find his.." Ranma trailed off as P-Chan
wandered into the room, and was happily swept up by Akane, "Ok, fine. Do
what you want, he'll probably get lost anyways, or celebrate it by trying to
kill me."  With that Ranma stalked off out of the room, but quickly returned
when he realised he was missing out on supper.

	Akane walked next to Ranma, holding lovingly onto her 'P-Chan', discussing
what she should get Ryouga for his birthday, P-chan's ears perking up at
this.  Ranma, deciding that he didn't want Ryouga to know what he was
getting him until  he opened it, tried to excuse himself with that exact
idea. This of course started an argument.
	"Ranma! You don't think I can keep a secret? You can't even trust me to do
this?"
	"Akane, that's not what I mean, and since when do you trust me? All you
ever do is hit me before listening to what I have to say!"
	"That's not true! Ranma no Baka!" Akane launched Ranma over the skyline
with a well placed hit from her mallet, "C'mon P-Chan, let's go find
something for Ryouga."


	Ranma stood and shook the dust from his landing off as he became aware of
his surroundings, 'Stupid Akane, why'd she havta.. cool.. I'm exactly where
I wanted to be..'
	Without looking where he was going, he started to walk, knowing exactly
where he had to go to get the 'perfect' present for Ryouga; and walking
straight into someone, knocking them both to the ground.  As he was picking
himself up, he noticed that the ground didn't feel right, not hard, more
yielding, almost fleshlike?  Looking down he realized he was lying over some
woman, using her chest to right himself, one hand on each breast.  With a
cry of alarm, Ranma jumped back, repeating "Gomen nasai" over and over, all
while covering his head from the beating he was sure he was going to get.
	"Ranchan?" Ukyou asked in concern, "Don't worry I'm not gonna hit you, I'm
not Akane. It was an accident."
	Ranma slowly looked up, "Ukyou? What are you doing here?"
	"I'm looking for a present for Ryouga, Kasumi caled and told me it was his
birthday tomorrow.  What about you?"
	"The same, I guess I gotta get something for the big idiot.  And I have the
perfect idea, c'mon we can go together."
	"Okay Honey, you lead the way!"
	As Ranma started walking the only thing he could do was ponder how good it
felt, being with Ukyou.
