Over the past few months since the failed wedding, of the Tendo
and Saotome clans, things in Nerima had changed little.

Xian-Pu and Koh-Lon ran the Nekohaten while the young Amazonian
female continued in her attempts to take Ranma as her husband, all the
while Muu-Tsu failed to gain Xian-Pu's favor.

Happosai was a constant nuisance, still driving fear into his
pupils.

Ryoga, still lost, occasionally found himself back in town for a
"rematch" with Ranma.

Ranma meanwhile still seems incapable of confessing his true
feelings for his iinazaku, and vise-versa.

The only major change to the area seemed to be in Ukyo and her
restaurant. Ukyo decided somewhere along the way to make Fridays a
special karaoke night, and she tended to invite the entire Nerima
Wrecking Crew, on the grounds that no one fought over, with, or for
Ranma.
So far Karaoke Night at Ucchan's has been a smashing success.




Ryoga stepped upto the microphone with trepidation. Nervousness
and fear abound covered the young martial artist's facade.

"Uh...hi?" The Lost Boy's voice cracked as he spoke
apprehensively to the crowd.

Ryoga swallowed the lump in his throat before speaking again.
"Ukyo prodded me into doing this, I don't think it's very good, but
here goes. This is a special song I rewrote for a special someone."

The Lost Boy's usually dark, brooding eyes caught sight of, and
held the iridescent light chocolate eyes of "that special someone" he
spoke of, and Ryoga smiled a fangy grin.

The strong opening guitar of a once famous 80's pop-rock tune
vibrated through the small restaurant.

Ryoga took a deep breath and began singing. The teen's heavy
bass-tenor voice slightly over shadowing the music.


"Ranma is a friend, I know he's been some kind of friend"

Ranma grimaced as the crowd chuckled.

"But lately something's changed that ain't hard to define.
"Ranma has himself a harem and I wanna make one mine."

Ranma groaned as Ucchan's customers laughed once more.

"One of these girls is watchin' him with those eyes
"She's never tried lovin' him with that body, it just ain't her"

A series of confused looks are shared around the Wrecking Crew
before everyone's eyes turn to Xian-Pu, who just looks confused and
shrugs.

"He's talkin' with her at the bar late, late at night.

"You know, I wish that I had one of Ranma's girls,
"I wish that I had one of Ranma's girls
"How can I take that woman from him?"

The gathered fiancées share curious looks with each other, save
that "special someone." She sits off to the side and slightly behind
the other members of Ranma's little "harem," as Ryoga called them.

"I play along with her charade
"There doesn't seem to be a reason to change.
"I feel so dirty when she stars cookin' for him, knowing he won't
appreciate it.
"I wanna tell her that I love her, but the point is probably
moot."

The girls all glare at Akane, who looks slightly dumbfounded
thinking that this song could be about her.
Ranma's blood begins to boil as he thinks that Ryoga has the
nerve to do such a thing in front of their friends and families.
Genma-panda and Soun sit off at a far table plotting how to bring
down the Lost Boy for his audacity.

"'Cuz she's watching him with those eyes
"An she's willin' to give him her mind and body, I just know it."

Hate filled glares now return to Xian-Pu, who in turn is glaring
at Ryoga.

"But he's not holding her in his arms late at night.

"You know, I wish that I had one of Ranma's girls,
"I wish that I had one of Ranma's girls
"How can I get that woman from him?

"One of Ranma's girls, I wish that I had one of Ranma's girls
"How can I get that woman from him?
"How can I get that woman from him?

"I'm lookin' in the mirror when I find one,
"Knowing what she don't see in me
"I've never been funny, or cool with the lines
"Though I fought her once or twice."

The fiancées exchanged curious glances, as if attempting to
discern whom the Lost Boy was talking about. The young woman that this
song had been dedicated towards stopped smiling as she attempted to
remember when he'd ever played her Knight in a Yellow Bandanna.

"Tell me, how can I get that woman from him?"

The background music took the forefront as Ryoga stopped singing.
The cursed teen let loose a fangy grin to the young woman in the
audience as she moved closer to the small stage that had been
assembled. Her serenader looked down at her, taking note that no one
else in the room noticed her movement.

After a beat Ryoga lifted the microphone and continued his song.

"You know, I wish that I had one of Ranma's girls
"I wish that I had one of Ranma's girls
"I want one of Ranma's girls
"How can I get that woman from him
"One of Ranma's girls, I wish that I had one of Ranma's girls
"I want, I want one of Ranma's girls."


The music faded into the background along with the Lost Boy's
vocals as the song neared its end. Ryoga took a deep breath before
bowing to the crowd. Having expected to be booed off the stage Ryoga
was shocked when he looked up to find himself staring at a beautiful,
but angry female face. "Ehhh...Hi?"

The gathered audience, Wrecking Crew AND Ucchan's patrons, fell
deadly silent as the song ended. At the forefront of the amassed group
of friends and families one of the least likely people stood. Quickly
she stepped upon the small stage and took residence next to the
Eternally Lost Boy.
The group waited patiently in the growing silence as Ryoga looked
up at the woman by his side. Even those next to the door could hear
his audible gulp. "Ehhh...Hi?"

"Ryoga-kun?" The young woman spoke evenly and with a slightly
cultured tone. "I thought we agreed, no 80s pop tunes for Karaoke
Night."

Ryoga rubbed the back of his neck. "H-h-hai."

The young woman glared up at the cursed teen and placed her hands
on his hips. "Did you mean what you said in that song? About loving
me, and wanting me?"

Ryoga nodded as he swallowed the lump forming at the back of his
throat. "Hai. Did you like the song?"

The sternness left the girl's face as she smiled at the Lost Boy.
"Ryoga-kun, I loved it. Thank you." The young woman happily gathered
the slightly confused boy into her arms in the most reassuring hug
Ryoga had ever had.

Suffice to say the Eternally Lost Boy, didn't seem so lost now,
Ryoga finally found a place to come home to.
