Author�s note:
This is an alternate universe.. soooo.. WARNING!! the characters might be a little OOC (haha.. thought I was gonna say this was a hentai fic or something didntcha!! They�re only 11 for goodness sakes!) Anyway, Ranma hasn�t gone to China yet, and it just so happens that he attends the same elementary school as Akane right now. In this story Akane is still the heir of her father�s dojo, and is still interested in martial arts, (and still has a bit of a temper) but she is really just a very very very spastic child ^^. Nabiki is just starting to learn about how to make money through unconventional ways, and Kasumi is in Osaka taking care of a sick aunt (she�s been there for 1 year). Elementary school starts at 9:00..
In Child�s Toy there�s a little bat named babbit that appears once in awhile with some side comments.. but in this fic.. it�s.. it�s.. P-CHAN!!!
Umm.. lessee I can�t think of any more notes other than that.. oh yeah! For those of you who have seen Child�s toy.. just imagine all the "he he he�s" to be a Sana-like laugh. The one where she does that weird eye thing, like ~ ~ umm.. yeah. Aw.. you know what I mean! ^_^

Geez.. this is confusing..
OK!! On with the story now!!!!! ^^
�Wakie Wakie Akane-chan!�
*Beep*
*Beeeeeep*
*Beeeeeeeeep*
*BEEEEEEEP*
*BEEP BEEP BEEP!!*
"Un�"
*BEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!*
"Hnn?"
The young girl glanced blearily at the time on the clock before lazily pressing the snooze button, falling back asleep once her head hit the pillow. She grinned evilly as she dreamed of beating the crap out of Kuno-sempai before planting a flag in his butt that had "8:45" written on it. She grinned again, letting out the most evil laugh she could muster.
"BWAHAHAHAHA!! Take that Kuno-sempai!! 8:45.. right on the butt.. he he he.. good joke Akane! OHHH ho.. ha ha he he�eh? EH?? @^$!"
8:45?!
"OIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!" she shouted jumping out of bed, wide awake. She grabbed her clock and looked at the time. 8:45.. "AAAAH!!!! Stupid alarm! Why didn�t it wake me up?!!! �Progressively louder� ..Feh.. I didn�t even hear it! Stupidstupid stupid!" she shouted in rapid fire Japanese, her loud soprano voice carrying throughout the house.
Her shoulder length bluish black hair bounced wildly as she jumped down the stairs, and before she knew it she was skidding across the wooden floor of the hallway, flailing her arms wildly. After regaining her bearings somewhat she ran into the bathroom and rushed through her morning routine, first brushing her teeth� #hey.. aren�tcha gonna put toothpaste on that??#.. and then brushing her hair� #AHHH! Don�t put toothpaste on _that_ brush!!#
"Gonnabelategonnabelate� ONEEECHAAAAN!!!!!"Akane shouted, ignoring the little pig that had suddenly appeared. She ran up the stairs warp speed, failing to notice the trail of white toothpaste she left behind her. Stopping by her sister Nabiki-chan�s room with a screeching halt, she groaned inwardly when she saw no one there.
<Oi.. I forgot! Nabiki-oneechan goes to junior high school now.. she must have left already. Aww, who�s going to walk me to school from now on?.. AH! Schoolschoolschoolschool! I�m gonna be late if I don�t hurry!!!>
Hurriedly getting back to her room, she rummaged through her closet, throwing clothes about her as she tried to find a suitable outfit. "Ahaaa!!" she said before trying to change into a cute red skirt and white shirt ensemble.
#Umm.. Akane-chan.. it would help if you took your pajamas off first!!! Baka!# Akane glared at the little pig. Then, suddenly remembering something, she stopped her struggle. She snapped her fingers and grinned. "Why didn�t I think of it before?!"
#Eh?!#
"Tendooo.."sailor moon like arm movements "Anything Goes�" tornado like spinning "Secret technique of Makingaquickgetawayfromanunpaidhotelroom!!!!!!" she shouted after suddenly stopping and standing in a sailor moon ending pose, one hand on her hip, the other hand on her forehead.
The pig stared for a moment, jaw dropping to the ground in shock. In place of the once messy girl who had had toothpaste in her hair and a red skirt hanging off one arm was a cute little girl in a prim red and white outfit with two glossy, blue haired ponytails.
"Take that ya pig!" Akane said posing this way and that.
#You make that sound like an insult#
Akane rolled her eyes� and then her eyes practically fell out of her head when she saw the time. She sped down the stairs in a white blur and was about to run out the front door when she suddenly felt herself being lifted up from behind. Her legs still moving as if she was running and her eyes shut tight with effort she cried out, "Lemme go!! Lemme go!!!"
"Not before you eat your breakfast Akane-chan," the tall martial artist, Soun Tendo, said calmly.
"Otoosan!!! Otoosan I�m gonna be late for school!!!!� Heeyyy.. where are you taking me?? Otoosaaan.. lemme go!! Lemme go!!!"
Her protests went unheard though, and before she knew it she found herself sitting in front of the dining table, a huge pile of food (that looked quite inedible) on her plate. She gulped. "O..otoos.."
"Come now hime-chan, I will not have my daughter starve!" he said nudging her a bit.
She stared at the burnt toast, eggs and potatoes in front of her.. well.. at least that�s what it looked like.. sort of. <Eww..> She gulped again before poking at it with her chopstick. The chopstick suddenly disintegrated before her eyes.
"OTOOOSANNNN!!!!!" she shouted screaming, suddenly hanging onto the ceiling, a look of horror on her face as she looked down at the toxic waste on her plate. "YOU EXPECTED ME TO EAT THAT?!?!"
"Hmm.. I thought that.." suddenly Soun�s calm demeanor broke. "I thought that.."
"W.. wait.. no.. don't cry otoosan," Akane pleaded as she saw tears suddenly form in her father�s eyes.
"I ca.. I can't help it!! WAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!" he said before breaking down, shedding alligator tears.
#Why alligator tears? Why not little piggy tears.. or big crying man tears? Or.. OW!!!#
Akane just smacked a hand to her forehead while stepping on the little pig�s head. <Oh man .. >
" If only your mother was here!!! Or even Kasumi!!! WAHHHHHH!!!!! If only Mrs. Mashimada wasn�t sick� WAHHH! I can�t even cook my youngest daughter a good meal. I�m a failure hime-chan! I�m so sorry!! I failed you.. Your otoosan�s a failure!!" he said babbling. He was on his knees now, bowing over and over again, his tears flooding the room. "Gomen.. Gomen.."
"It�s okay it�s okay," Akane sputtered with an embarrassed look, gesturing frantically for her father to get up. She didn�t have time for this! He didn�t stop though but instead kept apologizing and sobbing about his wife and other daughter. Akane finally gave up and after a quick goodbye that went unheard she started walking towards the front door. She froze though when she heard the chimes of the clock.
Her shout of "I�M LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE!!!!" echoed inside the home and could be heard throughout the neighborhood. It was immediately followed by a cloud of dust suddenly filling the streets.
...Dr. Tofu's Careful Driving...
"Hello Akane-chan!" a man in his early 20s said as he stuck his head out the window of his Honda, apparently speaking to big blur of motion.
Akane stopped her speed walking # EH?! You call that WALKING?! # and waved. "Ohayo Dr. Tofu!!"
"Do you need a ride to scho.." before he even finished she was sitting in his passenger seat, buckling her seatbelt.
"I'm all ready to go!!" Akane said smiling.
Dr. Tofu just smiled and started off.. at 2 miles per hour.
"Dr. Tofu couldn't you hurry just a teensy bit..." she looked out the window her eyes widening.. "That 4 year old is walking faster than your driving!!! Dr. Tofu please
hurry!!!! Hurry hurry hurry hurry hurr.."
"It's not good to speed Akane-chan.. I don't want you to get hurt."
Akane stopped her whining, her eyes suddenly filling with joyful tears. "You really care about me that much??"
"Of course I do Akane-chan," Dr. Tofu said turning and smiling at her.
"Even more than Kasumi Dr. Tofu?" Akane asked shyly, hoping he wouldn�t act as she expected.
"Wha? Ka.. Kasumi??" Suddenly his glasses fogged up and Akane's world suddenly
turned upside down.. literally.
Akane sighed and held on for the ride.
�The classroom is a zoo!!�
"*Pant**cough*I�m*pant pant* finally *pant pant deep breath� * heeeere�" Akane
managed to say, breathing heavily. That was some ride.. not to mention that he
had dropped her off on the wrong street and she had to run the rest of the way
here.
She looked at the clock. 9:05. It took her only 5 minutes. 5 minutes to get to a school that was usually a 15 minute walk. After taking a few more deep breaths she stood up straight and then jerkily made her way towards the door, her limbs almost giving out on her. She steadied herself and put a hand on the doorknob.
<Oh man I'm late... oh well! Hopefully I can sneak in and the teacher won�t notice!> Akane thought to herself, a grin forming on her cute face.
She opened the door.
She blinked.
"WHEEEEEEE!!" "Stop it!!!" "Hahaha look at Miss Nishio.. she�s gonna start crying again!!" "Ah! You perverts! Get away from us!" "Eww� that�s so gross Daisuke.. stop picking your nose!" "P..please class.. p.. ahhh! You little brats!!!" "HAHAHA!" "Ranma-kun did you see that?" "Yeah didja?" "Whatever" "Hey Ranma-kun, show us that move again!!!" "Later.." "If you say so. Hey, let�s use these on Miss Nishio.." "Noo!!! AUGHHHHH!!� *sniff* *sniff*"
Akane shook her head. <Why was I even worried about being late? It�s not like anyone notices.. what kinda classroom is this anyways?!>
"Akane-chan!" her friend Sayuri said running over to greet her. Immediately two other girls followed.
"Akane-chan it�s getting worse every day.. It takes less and less to make Miss Nishio start bawling! She�s bawling even now, and class hasn�t even lasted for 5 minutes! You�ve got to do something Akane-chan! We can�t take this anymore!" Yuka said, clasping her hands together in front of her.
"Wha? Why me?" Akane asked surprised.
"You�re the martial artist here, right?" Yuka asked, to which Akane nodded. "And martial artists have to defend the weak, right?" This time Akane slowly nodded, seeing where this was going.
"Then get to it!!!" another girl, Makoto, said, pushing Akane to the group of rowdy boys in the back of the room.
� Here�s Ranma!�
"I said later you guys," Ranma muttered, getting a bit annoyed by his followers as they kept asking him to perform another martial arts move. He was busy trying to figure out how to read a dumb scroll, and all that questioning wasn�t helping his concentration any. Yeesh, why did he hafta go to school anyway? Two days in class and he was already bored out of his mind! And the kids here were so rowdy there was no way he was gonna learn anything!
" RANMA SAOTOME WILL YOU PAY ATTENTION TO ME?!"
"Eh?" Ranma said finally looking up. He blinked as he saw the girl with two swinging ponytails angrily point a finger at him, her face flushed, her eye twitching. "Uh.. me?"
"YAY for Akane-chan!" the girls cried out.
Akane put her hands on her hips, trying to look as authoritative as possible. "Yes you! I�ve been shouting at you for 10 minutes now ya idiot!!!"
"What did I do? And why are ya callin� me an idiot?" Ranma asked totally confused.
Akane ignored him, acting as if he hadn�t spoken. Dramatically, looking up into space she said, "Every day our poor teacher breaks down into tears.. and the children of the class are deprived of learning." She snapped out of it and glared at him. "It�s your fault that our teacher is being tormented, and I," she slammed her hand down on a desk for effect, "won�t stand for it! I ignored your antics before, but you�re becoming a real pest!"
#How heroic!#
"Huh? Tormenting? Antics? Hey! I wasn�t doin� nothing!" Ranma protested, his ire rising a bit. He looked around, finally noticing all aspects of the destroyed room.
"Yeah maybe you weren�t doing anything directly.. but your lackeys sure were having fun weren�t they.. making our poor teacher start crying! You.. you SCUM!"
#oo.. that�ll scare him Akane-chan. Now say, "I�m the detergent that will disintegrate you!!!"#
"I�m the detergent that will� AUGH!!! Where do you keep coming from you weird pig???!!! Why do you keep FOLLOWING ME??!!!" Akane shouted angrily, punting the pig out the 2nd story window.
"I don�t think you�ll get an answer Akane-chan," Sayuri said meekly.
"Lackeys? Pig?" Ranma asked confused, absently putting the scroll in his back pocket. Since when did he.. oh yeah.. his little gang of followers.
"Don�t talk to Ranma Saotome like that Tendo!" a blond haired boy shouted, intercepting Akane�s march towards Ranma.
"Yeah, just �cause your dad owns a dojo doesn�t mean nothin�, you aren�t that great!" another boy shouted.
"Dojo?" Ranma asked in a curious tone. <Hmm.. maybe she practices martial arts too.>
Akane, though, already angered by the previous comments took it as an insult.
"Do you have a problem with that? Huh huh huh??" Akane asked in a low, threatening voice, jumping over the blonde haired boy and walking closer to Ranma with each "huh".
"Eh? I just wanted to kn.." he said, starting to back up.
"You don�t have ta answer to her Ranma-kun!" Hiroshi shouted.
"Yeah! She�s just a GIRL!" Daisuke said sticking his tongue out at Akane.
"Hey, you guys don�t gotta go and defen.." Ranma started but was interrupted as the girl suddenly pulled out a mallet from thin air.
"WHAT�S WRONG WITH BEING A GIRL??!!!" Akane shouted before she bashed Daisuke into the ground.
<Sugoi.. she�s strong. Not bad with that mallet either.. what kinda girl is she anyways?? Aren�t they s�posed ta teach her girly stuff like cookin� or something? Whoever heard of a girl doin� martial arts!> Ranma thought. "Geez.. what a tomboy."
"Tomboy?" Akane said turning back to Ranma calmly. "TOMBOY?!" she then shouted, her mallet raised behind her, suddenly growing in size.
<Hmm.. lessee how good she really is..> Ranma grinned.
"And just WHAT are you grinning at?" Akane asked irritated.
"Man� an UNCUTE tomboy too.." Ranma said looking away as if he suddenly lost interest in her.
Akane stood there shocked. Uncute.. UNCUTE!!!! Why that�. THAT JERK!!!
She let go with her mallet..
�and missed.
"Over here.. nyah!" Ranma said.. from the other side of the room, crouching on one of the desks.
Everyone stared at Ranma in awe, including Akane. <He�s so.. he�s so fast� hmph.. that�s not gonna stop me though!> Akane jumped onto one of the desks, her mallet disappearing. She closed her eyes and concentrated, her aura flaring up around her.
"Oooo.. it�s one of Akane-chan�s secret techniques!" Makoto cried out in awe.
"P..please.. no standing on the desks," Miss Nishio said whimpering, the tears still falling down her face.
"SHHHHHHHHH!!!" The class shouted at her, sending her running out the door.
� Hungry stomachs and a secret technique!!! �
#Ooo.. it looks like the Tendo Anything Goes Secret technique of becominginvisibletopeepinwomen�sbedrooms !!#
"Tendo Anything Goes Secret technique of becominginvisibletopeepinwomen�sbedrooms?" Ranma asked with a perplexed look, looking at the pig. When everyone just formed sweatdrops at the back of their heads he shrugged. <Anything Goes.. isn�t that what me and pop practice?>
"Whoa.. it�s getting bigger," Sayuri said, interrupting his thoughts. He watched as the room filled with the incredible light of Akane�s blue aura.
"Yeah.. is it supposed to do that?" Yuka asked worriedly.
Ranma just raised an eyebrow slightly, curious to know what this secret technique was.
Suddenly the room filled with a bright white light, a loud crash was heard, and suddenly, the light was gone..
And so was Akane.
Everyone gasped in awe and admiration. She had done it. She had disappeared. No one had ever seen that done before! Especially by an 11 year old!
Suddenly everyone heard a loud gurgling sound.
#Look down here!!!# They all looked to the ground where the little pig was. They all facefaulted at what they saw, while Ranma just stared, his left eye twitching.
"I�m sooooo hungry�" Akane said moaning as she lay on the ground, clutching her stomach, the aura around her a sickly yellow green.
"Whoa.. she looks really sick," Hiroshi said, poking her side with his toe, resulting in a load groan from Akane.
"Shouldn�t have.. shouldn�t have run to school.."
"Maybe we should get some food for her," Sayuri said, not moving.
"Shouldn�t have.. shouldn�t have done secret tech.. technique.."
Ranma leaned over the edge of the desk, looking down at the girl whose eyes were shut tight and whose stomach was growling like crazy. Akane opened one eye. She noticed he was in a very vulnerable position. "Hey.. Akane, you okay?
"DIE RANMA!!" Akane shouted before bashing Ranma over the head. The mallet suddenly disappeared and she wiped her hands on her skirt as she stood up over the fallen boy. "I hate violence sometimes. But, it had to be done."
Everyone stared at her, jaws practically touching the floor.
Then they stared at the knocked out Ranma whose eyes looked like a bunch of squigglies.
Then they stared at her again.
Akane grinned triumphantly. She shouted proudly, "That was the Tendo Anything Goes Secret Technique of faking hunger to bash opponent!! That other one was just a distraction... He he he.. take _that_ Ranma Saotome!"
Finally overcoming their shock, the girls cheered as the boys started to cart Ranma off to the infirmary.
#And that was Akane�s first encounter with Ranma Saotome.. ah..the beginnings of the love of a lifetime.#
"Love?! WHAT?! ARGH!!! GO AWAY YOU PIG!!!!!!!!!" Akane said before once again punting the little pig out the window.
#Was that supposed to be an insult?#
