START OF FIC
An Ordinary Day in Nerima in the Tendo Dojo.
Mr. Tendo plays Shogi with a fat Panda.

In English, you capitalise when:
1: The word is at the start of a new sentence.
2: The word is a person or place's name
or nickname. For example if Kasumi speaks to
her father, she says "Father," because she is
using his relationship to her as a nickname,
but if she were to speak about "my father"
it is not being using as a name and she wouldn't.
3: The word is the name of a language,
like...say...German?
Also your freedom to stick words together to make
new words is very limited in English. Usually
you have to use a hyphen to splice them together
as, for example in the case of mallet-wielding.
Thus, an ordinary Day in Nerima in the Tendo Dojo.
day
Note that Nerima and the Tendo Dojo are both capitalised
because they are place names.

But then there's a knock on the Door.

"I'll get it!" calls Kasumi, the Houskeeper, and walks to the front door.
housekeeper
No hyphen needed in this case because English is a profoundly irrational
language.
There she opens the door and greets the Guest.
"Hello! Welcome to the Tendo Dojo."
Kasumi's actions should all be one paragraph.
The Guest is a female dressed in a pink dress, long white cloves, long
gloves. Although for a moment I was imagining her with cloven hooves,
which would have been fun.

simply put, a beautiful girl.
Incidentally, she sounds more pretty than beautiful.
"I'm Tendo Kasumi."
The person at the door should introduce herself first.
That's just good mannders.
"Pleased to meet you, Toadstool's the Name. Is Saotome-san here?" the Guest
asks.
"Oh My! Yes.. please come in." Answers Kasumi, and they both go in the
House, in the Livingroom.

"Saotome-san? Here is someone who came to visit you." ask Kasumi, while she
enters with Ms. Toadstool.
[Who might that be?] asks the Pandas sign and the Panda turns around, only
to see the blonde.

Five milliseconds later, two Backpacks are packed and the Panda is missing.
I doubt he'd bother to pack Ranma's pack.
"Oh.. would you like a cup of Tea, until Saotome-san returns?" ask Kasumi.

"Thank you." says Toadstool-san and sits opposite of Kasumi down at the
table.

"Have you gone to Jusenkyo too?" asks Nabiki
Ms. Toadstool face darkens: "Please! do not mention that travesty of my
life!"
Do not mention that tragedy of my life!"
Just as Nabiki wants to open her Mouth, some one else is faster: "Ranma!
Come back here!", "No thanks! You Uncute Tomboy!"

(If Ranma had not said "You" then it would have been "Uncute Tomboy",
but because he did, it isn't being used as a name.)
Ranma and Akane, the ever bickering Fianc�es are back.

The two run trough the Living Room up the Stairs, and some seconds later
again back down.
"Ranma? Is that you?" Both halt at the Guest's Call.

Ranma stops in his tracks: "Yes, and who are you?"
Akane stops too: "Probarbly some new Fianc�e of your's! You Womanizer!"
Probably womanizer
"Pop! What did you sell me this time for??" shouts the 'womanizer', and just
in this moment, a Panda comes back in, with it two Backpacks, takes the
pigtailed Youth and hops out the nearest Window: [Shut Up! And come with

But Ranma reacts und beats his father within an inch of his life while
shouting Names.

"I'm Toadstool Peach. And who are you?" the guest answers politely.
"I'm Tendo Akane. Heir of the Tendo Anything Goes Martial Arts School. And

Peach simply says: "I'm here for my Fianc� Saotome Ranma."

{Yep, Toadstool isn't mine either}
I recommend not using the first sign. This is one of
those times that Genma would feel that he doesn't have
to play dumb because this one really isn't his fault.
Also delete "either".
A little while later.
Ranma sits at his spot, beside him is Akane, on the other side are Nabiki,
Kasumi, Peach on the head by Ranma, and Soun on the other side.
"So.. you're my Fianc�e, promised since my birth. And you say that only our
engagment is value."

It could be the start of a good fic.
