Hmm...Destruction and Justice...an interesting combination.  Good 
first chapter, Raoh.  I'm struck by how much your writing has 
improved since the first time I read anything by you, which was the 
first chapter of Stained Glass Mind, I think.  Flow, description, 
phrasing, dialogue; everything's gotten a lot better.  

There are a lot of interesting questions this fic asks, and I think 
you need to consider them as you plot out where this is going.  Why 
does Ranma love Akane, and why does she love him?  If Belldandy falls 
in love with Ranma, as I rather expect she will, why does she?  She's 
so lonely; I wouldn't be surprised if she fell in love with anyone 
who was kind to her.  How you answer these questions is 
going to define what happens later...don't let your plot take over 
your characters.  

I hope you won't ignore the logical progression of events, which is 
that (after she destroys that country) Akane moves in with Belldandy 
and Ranma.  If this does happen, it'll be interesting; I doubt Bell 
will take easily to Akane's godly responsibilities.  

Let's see...the only real problems I had with the writing style were 
in the paragraphs right before Ranma appears in Bell's house, when 
she thinks about her parents.  The phrasing is a little stilted; you 
might want to take another look.  

I liked this a lot, and am anxious to see what happens next.
