Anywho...we don't own Ranma ½

A/N fades to gray, line up the credits...

Akane finally took the time to do something besides being in utter shock from the scene that was unfolding in front of her, "Ranma, Ryoga... what're you two doing!" the two martial artists in question were still going on with their little make out fest.

That was until Ryoga was snapped out of his dream-like state; pulling back he placed his hands on Ranma, blushing deeply. "A-Akane, it's not what you think!" he stammered, that did little to stop the redhead that he had been kissing.

"Noo... come Ryoga! Just a bit more!" she begged, trying to get closer.

Ryoga kept her at bay by leaning his head away from her mouth.

The blue haired Tendo sister's eyes widened, this didn't seem right... "W-what's wrong with you two...? Why did you kiss her back Ryoga?" she asked, panic in her voice; mostly wanting to know why he'd take advantage of a possibly magic influenced Ranma.

Ranma ignored anything that didn't involve her pressing her lips... and hips, against Ryoga. "Don't tease... come on, P-chan! You know you want it..." she said, curling the edge of her lips into a small smirk; staring into the Lost Boy's eyes.

Ryoga had to do a double take in order to understand what was going on... "N-no! You're sick Ranma!" he had been so busy with keeping the redhead back that he didn't notice that he was reaching around her waist and grabbing onto her strong, firm backside.

"But why were you kissing her back and why are you fondling her butt?" Akane asked again.

Ryoga looked down and realized that it was true, blushing furiously he snatched his hand away, but not before registering how soft, yet firm Ranma's curvy rear was.

Ranma said "it's so like you Akane to interrupt true love, you uncute, unsexy tomboy"

"T-true love?" Akane stammered.

"Yes, you do honestly think that every guy in this world has to fall for you?" she snarled.

Ryoga could only watch stunned while Ranma fought for him. This was all way out of control. How had he even gotten into making out with Ranma... and why did he kiss her back? Thankfully Akane was easily distracted, that allowed him some time to gather his wits; which he didn't have much of.

"W-what're you talking about Ranma!" she demanded, this wasn't anything like how Ranma usually was. "Something's wrong with you, can't you see that?" She shouted, since that's how she normally responded to anything that included Ranma; it was their strange way of communicating.

"What I'm talk'in bout' is how you think every guy has to fall for you!" she exclaimed, for some reason she felt strange... it was probably that little voice in her head telling her to stop acting like such a girl.

Ryoga knew he'd have to do something, so he did what he could to get Ranma to snap out of her love struck state. The lost boy moved over to her and struck her a good, strong punch to the head, causing her to hunch down and grab her head.

"Geez! Why'da have to hit so hard, stupid!' She shouted, and then realized something. She had been kissing Ryoga, eyes widening she turned to Akane and then back to Ryoga, though she found herself staring at the lost boy more than she should've, until her eyes traveled down to his pants.

"Ranma! Don't stare at Ryoga's pants!" Akane said blushing.

Ryoga found his eyes drifting to Ranma's chest, and then heard what Akane had to say about Ranma staring at his pant's region.

Akane noted all these things, but she noticed something on their wrists. "What're those things?' she asked, causing the two martial artists to turn their hands in that direction, they eyed them for a moment before it hit Ryoga that this must've been the curse Amy had mentioned.

Ryoga wondered how had it happened and why did it happen to Ranma? Were these things the cause for these unexplained actions that were going on between them? He would've questioned these things more if he hadn't once again stared at the redheaded girl.

"Ryoga! Not you too!" Akane cried.

"S-sorry!" Ryoga replied shaking his head.

Ranma squinted her eyes shut, this was getting too difficult for her to handle. Why was she so attracted to the lost boy? They were both guys! Why was she acting like this? All these thoughts halted when Akane pointed out Ranma's and Ryoga's new accessories; matching silver dragon bracelets. Raising her wrist, she turned to the yellow clad martial artist and then raised her fist to him and clenched it in front of him.

"You! This is your stupid present for Akane, this thing is making me a-a..." she stuttered, not really wanting to finish her sentence.

Both Akane and Ranma got the picture, though they hadn't noticed that Ranma was pressing her chest up against Ryoga's, causing them to pull back. Needless to say that Akane was horrified with everything that was going on between the two, and then realized something, "That was a gift for me... Ryoga, what were you planning on?" she gasped taking a step back.

The lost boy shot his head to Akane, "N-no, I had no idea that my gift would do this, I swear!"

"You're such a liar!" Ranma shouted, jumping over to Ryoga and slamming her elbow in the back of his head, resisting her strange urges with as much force as she could muster.

Ryoga was pushed down a bit by the force of Ranma's attack, but that hadn't stopped him from trying to talk some sense into Akane; and her also annoying habit of shooting first and then asking questions later. "A-Akane, I didn't know...!" he shouted, still the blue haired girl leaned back from him afraid that it was all lies.

"Then who gave it to ya'?" Ranma demanded, glaring at him; though she wasn't able to stop herself from eyeing Ryoga's body. "No! Need ta' stop look'in!" she thought, taking deep breaths.

"Alright... maybe I do know something," Ryoga muttered, he hadn't been as quiet as he would've liked.

"Like what, Pig breath?" Ranma asked, crossing her arms.

"When I got the thing... this Amy Wong girl told me that it was from China, and that it... had a curse," The two girls glared at him with fire blazing in their eyes, "I didn't think it was nothing bad!" he finished lamely.

"It has a curse!" Ranma shouted, "Now what curse has ever been something small, huh?"

"Ryoga... does that mean you got it for me because you wanted me to have it," she asked, causing Ryoga to blush, "because we're such good friends?" once again, Akane's blind eyes failed to truly see what were Ryoga's intentions.

"O-of course..." Ryoga replied.

"I think we should go see the old ghoul...," Ranma stated, interrupting the strange feeling between Ryoga and Akane; for some reason she felt more scared that Ryoga would try something with Akane... she then remembered that it was the bracelet's power doing this to her.

Moving over to them, Ranma grabbed Ryoga's hand, "Come on sexy-"

"Did you just call Ryoga, sexy?" Akane asked, blinking in shock.

Ryoga stood still.

"Let's just go!" She shouted, still holding onto Ryoga's hand.

Ryoga blushed as the small woman towed him through the streets of Nerima; their destination was the Neko Hanten where the Chinese would save them from a curse yet again, even when they were normally the ones responsible for said curses. He looked at his large, square hand holding the small delicate-seeming fingers of the petite redheaded girl; it felt so right how they curled trustingly into his large palm. "I'm only holding her hand to make sure that I don't get lost' he told himself and glanced back guiltily at the fuming Akane.

The Neko Hanten was busier than normal, but that didn't stop Shampoo from glomping onto her airen. "Silly Ranma, Shampoo too busy to have date right now. You come back later okay?" she suggested happily. Ryoga felt a slight twinge of jealously and tightened his hand on Ranma's, and realized then that it was just the curse and relaxed. "Why you hold Ryoga's hand?" she asked when she noticed.

"Actually we have to see Cologne right away, its really important" Akane said. "Tell her it's about this" she said holding out the ruby which was now denuded, except for strange symbols picked out in silver around the rim.

Shampoo sighed with impatience "Akane restaurant busy, we no can help you every time boy give you trinket. Try get it appraised by jeweler if that interested" she admonished her.

"This amulet is causing YOUR airen and Ryoga to act like that" Akane explained. Shampoo narrowed her eyes and watched the 'boys' for a second. Ranma was glomped to Ryoga's arm and blew a kiss up at him. Ryoga frowned at this and then got a sappy look on his face, before shaking his head and blushing like mad.

Shampoo snatched the amulet from Akane "I go show it to her right now" she said.

Cologne was cooking while Mousse did dishes "great-grandmother Ranma and Ryoga are acting crazy and Akane thinks it has something to do with this" Shampoo said frantically in Mandarin.

"Since when have those two ever acted normal?" Mousse asked. "I keep telling you that all Japanese people are a bit nuts" he replied in the same language.

"Get on with your chores boy" Cologne ordered and slipped on the reading glasses that she hated to admit that she needed, Mousse smirked slightly at this. Cologne ignored him and took the amulet from Shampoo and examined it. Her eyes went wide when she recognized it. "Shampoo, give all the customers their food to go and close the restaurant" she ordered her.

"It bad great-grandmother?" Shampoo asked recognizing the gravity in her voice.

"Its worse then you think" she said and went to retrieve what she needed from what she called her anti-curse drawer.

All three Amazon's and Akane sat at a booth watching while Ryoga knelt on a tatami mat...and Ranma glomped onto him, and lay her head on his shoulder. "This wasn't my idea, can't someone fix her?" he asked while his eye twitched. "Should I hit her again? That seemed to knock some sense into her"

"Ryoga where did you find this amulet?" Cologne asked ignoring him.

"A young part-Amazon girl named Amy Wong sold it to me when I was in China. I bought it for Akane's birthday" Ryoga said and shot a glance at the glowering Akane.

"Wong, that makes sense. What you bought was the infamous Amulet of Damned Love" Cologne explained.

"What's that?" Akane asked intrigued.

"A thousand years ago an outsider fell in love with the most beautiful woman in our village; she was not only the most beautiful woman, but the best warrior of her generation. He swore that he would marry her in any way possible, but it was she didn't care of him, she was a lesbian. He tried to woo her but when she rejected every attempt, he resorted to dark magic. He braved scaling a cliff face in order to seek out a monk said to be trained in the forbidden arts. He offered him a part of his soul; the monk accepted it and forged this amulet. Now when the dragons separate and lock onto the wrists of a couple, they forge a bond that starts with sexual desire and eventually leads to love" she explained.

"Oh Ryoga, isn't that so romantic?" Ranma enthused. "We can pretend that our bracelets are our wedding bands!"

Ryoga got a nosebleed at the idea "what happened to them?" he asked with a gulp, ignoring the girl giving him loving looks.

"A bond can't be forged out of nothing, there has to be the potential to have that sort of relationship already. In the case of the Amazon woman and the outsider, she must have been a bit fond of him because try as she might to resist the spell, she eventually ended up in his bed and as his wife. This continued to haunt their children and grandchildren, bonding them to someone it thought would suit them until it was discovered that you can get rid of the curse by selling it" she explained.

"Can nothing be done?" Ryoga roared, getting up.

"You hear that Ryoga? We're going to be together forever" Ranma said capering happily and then she flung her arms around him, her bottom still swished like a happy puppy and Ryoga couldn't help staring at its rounded firmness. She leaned back, her eyes were shining and a blush stained the tops of her cheeks. The light around them seemed to turn pink and suddenly airborne flowers surrounded her adorable, upturned face, while romantic violin music played. "Kiss me" she said in a voice that would have melted sugar. Ryoga blushed in a similar way and leaned forward to claim her sweet lips and her eyes closed to receive his kiss, until Ranma was yanked out of his arms.

"Knock it off Ranma" the livid girl cried as she dragged the struggling redhead away from Ryoga.

"Ow, Akane that hurts" protested Ranma as she as dragged away from Ryoga by her hair, she still reached for hm.

"Shampoo agrees with Akane for once" raged Shampoo with a vein throbbing in her head.

Mousse could only stand there stunned that Ranma had looked really cute in that moment, and then smirked "let the happy couple have each other" he said, elated by the situation.

Ryoga shook himself from his trance and blushed at what had almost occurred...again. "Wait you can't be implying that I had a crush on Ranma?" he protested. "I hate her" Ranma just mewed and pouted at this.

"Hate and love are closely connected and obviously your interest is reciprocated or else she wouldn't be like this" Cologne explained.

Ryoga tugged at his bracelet, but it appeared to have no clasp and it was too small to slide off "if the problem is these, then I just have to cut them off of us and everything will go back to normal. Mousse do you have a pair of bolt cutters?" Ryoga asked hopefully, edging away from Ranma.

Mousse felt around in his sleeves and came out with an impossibly large pair of them. Ryoga held out his wrist while Mousse fitted them around the flimsy-seeming metal and watched in shock when the bolt cutters broke after Mousse strained on them for a few minutes. "They're indestructible, they will only leave your persons when their job is done and your love has been inescapably forged' Cologne explained. She indicated to Ranma "she shall be more a girl than she has ever been in an effort to seduce you and win your love, you shall be effected a little bit less then her as you are the male. The combination is always a stronger woman with a weaker male"

"Weaker?" Ryoga cried in outrage.

"It doesn't have to be physically" Cologne explained with a shrug "It can be maturity level, emotionally or even sexually" she explained.

"I don't desire her" Ryoga cried "and I certainly don't like her being like this." Indicating the other martial artist who was rubbing herself on him and happily mewing.

"I can fix it so that she has her rational thought, but it won't diminish her desire for you" Cologne explained.

"Do it" Ryoga said.

"Come here child, I have a present for you" Cologne coaxed and hopped onto the table.

"What is it?" Ranma asked.

"It's pretty pink hair ribbon, Ryoga loves the colour pink. Would you like me to tie it to the end of your braid?" she asked persuasively.

"Of course" Ranma said happily and allowed Cologne to tie the wide, hot pink ribbon into a jaunty bow. As soon it was in place, Ranma asked, "Ryoga what are we doing here?" in her normal voice.

"What is it?" Akane asked.

"It's made out of a very special bark from a sacred tree that is said to nullify most curses, the bark is removed and then pounded until it becomes threads thin enough to weave into these ribbons" Cologne explained.

Ranma fished her braid over her shoulder and blanched at the ribbon there "there's no way that I'm wearing this gay looking thing!" she declared.

"You must around wear it Ryoga or remain how you were, it must be as close to your brain as possible. Your hair is acting like an antenna and allowing you to somewhat return to normal" Cologne explained.

"No problem, pork butt here will get lost and not come back for months" she said hopefully.

"That is where the double edge of the curse comes in; if you are away from Ryoga for more than ten feet, for more than a couple hours, you will become physically ill. Days can make you bedridden and more than a month will place you in a comma until his return. He will experience this to a lesser degree and will be compelled to return to you" Cologne explained.

Ryoga and Ranma exchanged nervous glances over this "I could just become a man?" she suggested.

"Try it" Cologne said and poured tea over Ranma's head.

Ryoga blinked at the male Ranma...and flew into a rage. "Where is she you bastard? She's mine!" he cried as he flung himself at Ranma, missing him only because Ranma dodged and destroying a table in the process.

"What the hell is wrong with him?" he cried as Ryoga chased him around the restaurant while heaping abused upon him for trying to steal 'his' woman.

"Shampoo the cold water!" yelled Cologne and Shampoo just managed to nail Ranma only with her hose.

The damp girl sputtered and her wet clothes clung to her like a second skin, she blushed as Ryoga stopped charging after her and flung his arms around her, murmuring with relief that he'd missed her. Then he blushed and backed away. "What happened just now?" she cried.

"When you changed Ryoga thought that you were a male trying to take the female you away from him. He's always going to attack you when you are in male form, desire you in female form and you can't be apart for long, unless you can break this curse. The longer you fight your sexual desires, the harder it becomes on the both of you and making love with only wrap the coils tighter around you. You will experience heights of pleasure unknown and be able to feel what the other does while making love. That is another nature of the curse" Cologne said breaking it to them as gently as possible. "You're bound together tighter than any spouses until you can either break the curse, or it has run its course" Both of their eyes oo-ed at this news.

"Good, you make a lovely couple" Mousse said in satisfaction.

"Now Mousse how would you like it if you were bound to say, Kuno?" Cologne admonished.

"Wouldn't the potential for a relationship already have to be there?" Akane asked.

Mousse's face went beet red "for the last time, I was young, I was curious and it hasn't been repeated since. That was a long time ago, you swore never to tell anyone!" he shrieked at her.

Sensing that a famous Amazon dust up was about to occur, Akane, Ryoga and Ranma thanked them and departed.

"I guess that you will both have to sleep in the same bedroom with Ranma in his cursed form? Don't worry neither one of you will have to go through this alone, we'll help keep an eye on you so that you..." Akane said and blushed because she couldn't say the last part out loud.

Ranma turned; she was so mad that her beribboned braid was twitching like a cat's tail "I'm never going to give in and come to your bed, this isn't happening for either of us" she declared when all she could do was imagine Ryoga removing her clothes so slowly, as if uncovering a priceless work of art and making love to her. She cursed the image and hurried after Akane.

Ryoga could only stare after her. Her clothes were still sopping wet and he could see gooseflesh on the skin of her exposed arms. Her usual ill fitting clothes clung to her and promised long legs, a flat stomach, a perfect hourglass figure of tiny waist, and full hips and bosom. He wondered if the flesh beneath, which he'd only managed to look at in teasing glimpses, was as creamy and flawless as what was revealed. He sighed at the idea of stripping her wet clothes from her and warming her chilled, silken skin with his hands. He growled in frustration at this image and hurried after the two angry women, but not before he noticed that Ranma looked really cute with a ribbon in her braid.
