Do I own either series? Nope! Am I Rumiko Takahashi or Viz Video? Nope! Am I Fred Perry or Antarctic Press? Nope! So you can quit sending that army of lawyers after me now!

The next morning Julia woke up as the sunlight filtered through her window, as was her want. She shook her head and blinked as memories of yesterday filtered through her head, "Good God! Yesterday was like living a comic book story." She sighed and snuggled closer to her husband.

"Julia, was yesterday a dream? Because if it was I'm fairly happy with the results."

Julia sighed, "Nope, no dream." She then realized something, "Uh, Theo?"

"Yes Julia?"

"Remember when we invited everyone over for breakfast?"

"Yeah? So what?"

"Remember how much everyone ate yesterday?"

Theo blinked and shook his head, "Not really, I wasn't paying attention."

"All together, everyone consumed three times the amount of food that our entire family goes through in three days, and they were all exhausted. This morning they're not going to be as tired and I have a feeling that they'll be hungry."

Theo nodded, "So then I should order enough food to feet the U.S. Army?"

Julia shook her head, "The whole U.S. Armed Forces."

"HUH?!"

"I talked to that old woman Cologne yesterday and found out that Ranma by himself eats enough for four people and doesn't get full. And that's by himself, combined with the Wererats and all those eating for two, or in Sheila's case it's three, I don't think I have to mention what Mumsey can eat, and you are going to have to have enough food to feed the entire military."

Theo sweated, "I sure hope they can handle this."

Fortunately for Theo, the Emporium was one of the few hotels in all of Tokyo that could make enough food for all the orders.

Meanwhile in another room . . .

Britanny stretched as she woke up, she blinked as memories filtered in, "Damn, all that in one day? That's just too weird, even for us." She smiled cattily and turned to her husband and hugged him as he slept, it felt so good to know that she had gotten pregnant from her husband. "Purr, next time we go on vacation and want to have children, we've got to get a hold of that Lust Dust. We just got to make sure no one's around is all."

Meanwhile at the Saotome household . . .

Ranma groaned lightly as he woke up, he froze when he felt a body by him; he looked and then blinked as he saw Sheila's face. "It wasn't a dream?" He then relaxed as memories of yesterday filtered through his head, he pulled Sheila in closer to him, with one arm and hand wrapped around her shoulders, while he was doing that, he wrapped a leg over top of hers and placed her head on the crook of his neck.

Sheila, while still asleep, cuddled closer to the warm body she was with and started purring as she felt someone hold her closer. Ranma smiled as he felt her purr against him. He grinned a bit lecherously at the sight of Sheila's tail and firm ass, and he knew it was firm. He decided to wake her up a bit pleasantly, so he used his free hand to go down to her rear and start rubbing and massaging it, causing the girl in question to start moaning a bit. Sheila cracked an eye open and shifted her head to look at Ranma, "Mmm, don't stop, very nice." She then closed her eyes and cuddled up against him again. Sheila then started purring, loudly, causing Ranma's whole body to vibrate.

Ranma blinked as he felt himself purring right back, "Heh, I'd love to start the day like that Shechan, but we've got to get up."

"Purr, why? I'd love to spend the rest of my life, here, with you by my side."

Ranma smiled fondly and then hugged her closer and tighter to him as if he was trying to bond the two together permanently. Sheila opened her eyes some as she felt Ranma hugging her closely, she wondered why he was like that, she returned the hug and snuggled up to him, "What's wrong?"

"Shechan, it's just so, so, incredible. I just don't want this moment to end is all."

Sheila sighed and nuzzled him, she knew from what he had said about his life that he was a bit lonely and something like this would be so new to him and he wouldn't want to let it go.

At the Tendo Dojo . . .

Kasumi woke up and just snuggled closer to Tirga, unlike everyone else she had no problem in remembering what happened yesterday, she didn't even think it was a dream.

In her bedroom, Akane woke up and got out of bed and blinked when she saw Romeo on the floor, she was about to ask who he was, but then she remembered everything, "Too weird." She shook her head and went to go and get ready for a bath; she'd worry about it when she was fully awake.

In her room Nabiki blinked as she woke up and stretched, "Nope, that was too weird, even for Nerima, there's no way that I slept with Saotome and a Jagwere at the same time." She got out of the bed and walked to the mirror that was in her room. She blinked as she got a good look at her body, she then sighed and screamed, "IT WASN'T A DREAM!" Her eyes rolled up into the back of her head and she passed out, banging the back of her head onto the chair behind her.

People walking outside by the Dojo just shook their heads and went on their way.

At the Nekohanten Cologne just shook her head as she heard Nabiki's yell, obviously the girl thought it was all just a dream and was surprised when she woke up.

In her room at the Emporia, Gina Diggers woke up and groaned as light poured in, it only took a second for her sleep filled mind to remember the previous day. She winced and shook her head. "Just what I need, I have a child on the way." She flopped back onto her pillows and tried to just relax. "Heh. First I wake up after being screwed by two guys, then I find out I'm pregnant, and all that other stuff that happened. What a day." Gina giggled, "It's like I was living a comic book story yesterday."

Meanwhile in the main area of the hotel room that the Diggers were staying at Mumsey was drinking some tea with Onoli while they chatted, "I must say these Earthlings do know how to make a good cup of tea."

Onoli nodded, "Correct Mrs. Brigand." He then sighed, "Yesterday was just so, so, messed up."

Mumsey nodded her head, "No kidding. Why even Britanny's wedding wasn't as messed up as yesterday was." She then shook her head, "I've always said nothing ever good comes from magic or magic users."

Onoli nodded, "I bet a lot of people would agree with you. Especially after yesterday."

Mumsey nodded and smirked, "Still, there seemed to be a lot of good that came out of it huh?"

Onoli shrugged, "The most chaotic situations lead to the best results."

Mumsey blinked, "Where did you hear that?"

"A traveling priest with purple hair that thinks that everything is a secret told me that once. Then he disappeared when a short, flat-chested redhead showed up and started flinging fireballs around." Mumsey just shook her head.

In another room in the hotel room, Ryoga woke up in only his boxers, when everyone went home for the night, he had gotten lost and ended up in what seemed to be his bedroom, so he stripped down to his boxers and crawled into bed. "Hmm, that's funny, I don't remember anyone in my bed before." He flipped the sheets off and was stunned at what he saw, that girl he talked to yesterday, Brianna, laying there in the nude, curled up to his side and Ryoga could tell that she was a natural blonde.

Brianna smirked, "Well hello handsome."

"Uh, um, argh!" Ryoga started to get a trickle of blood going down his face.

Brianna frowned, she rolled over, giving Ryoga a good look at her completely, grabbed a tissue, rolled back and wiped Ryoga's nose with it. "There you go. We can't have any fun with you having a bloody nose."

"Huh? Fun, what do you mean?"

Brianna grinned cattily, "Oh you'll find out."

Poor Ryoga.

At the Nekohanten, Kodachi woke up in the spare bedroom and blinked as she took a look in the mirror that was across from her bed, "So, I truly am a Werecheetah then?" She sighed and wondered how her father was going to take that fact, considering how her brother reacted to her.

She shook her head and got ready to go to the Emporium to go and eat breakfast; there everyone was going to talk about their plans and whatnot.

She walked outside her room and ran into Shampoo, "So yesterday was no dream? Shampoo thought so."

"So what now?"

"Get washed up, go meet crazies who change us."

Kodachi giggled, "You do realize that anyone from Nerima calling someone a crazy is ironic?"

Shampoo giggled, but nodded and the two of them went downstairs and blinked when they saw Ukyou and Konastu. "What you two doing here?"

Ukyou shrugged, "I'm heading over to the Emporia like the rest of you, I just thought it'd be nice to have some company when we were going over there."

Kodachi and Shampoo nodded.

********

"Run faster Saotome, I think we've just about lost them!' Soun exclaimed as he and Genma-Panda ran like their lives depended on it.

"Growf!" Genma-panda responded holding up a sign reading, 'Right Tendo let us get out of here!’

The two dimwits kept on running, and running. What were they running from you ask? Something that was very bad to things there size.

"DOLLIES!" Two childish voices cried out, and the two just ran faster as 4-year-old Pojo and 2-year-old Alera racing after their new toys with childish enthusiasm.

"Oh why Saotome? How did our plan backfire so baldy that we're reduced to being children's toys?"

"GROWF?" 'Your asking me?' the sign read.

Meanwhile Jetta and Thabian were relaxing in some fold out lawn chairs the Diggers had given them sometime ago, watching their children run around chasing the man and Panda. It was quite an amusing sight.

"Hmm Thabian I think we should pay a visit to Atlanta sometime soon."

Thabian looked over at Jetta raising a curious eyebrow. "Why's that Jetta?"

"Because in order for those two to have been shrunk like that Tanya-witch and given to us for toys for the kids, means those two did something major to piss off the Diggers. This kind of punishment is only a few steps down from death in my book." Jetta replied.

"Hmm, good point, now I'm curious about what they did."

"We'll find out soon enough dear."

********

A half-hour or so after everyone had woken up and done what they needed to do, shave, shower, sex, ECT. Everyone met in the lobby of the Emporia and went to the restaurant for the breakfast buffet.

It was a very good thing that they had reserved the whole restaurant, and told them to keep on cooking.

The mouths of the chefs and servers were agape in amazement as half the guests piled tons of food on multiple plates, then being able to eat it all and come back for more!

The meat, and fish dishes seemed to go the fastest, followed by everything else. The servers kept refilling the trays and bowls of food and soups, and just as fast they were put out, they were eaten entirely. All sorts of food from noodles, to prime rib were devoured by the hungry individuals.

The pastries were eaten just as quick, pies, cakes, you name it, it was eaten totally.

"Man I hope we get a raise in pay for keeping up with these guys." A female server murmured to a fellow employee.

"I dunno, but considering how much this is all gonna cost them you'd think so." Her fellow server replied.

It was going to be awhile before the guests were finished eating obviously.

Ace blinked as he watched people eat and he ate as well, "Okay yo, I understand the expectant women eatin' so much, since they be eatin' for two, and in Sheila's case that be three, but why's Ranma is eating so much gee?"

Ranma shrugged as he continued to eat, swallowing he spoke, "I eat so much because I got a fast metabolism, not to mention I have to keep my Ki levels up just in case I or someone around me gets attacked for no reason."

Penny looked at him, "Come on, it can't be that bad, who would attack you or people around you for no reason?" everyone, save those from Nerima nodded.

Ranma looked at Shampoo, "I'm going to speak like you for a moment, hope you don't mind."

"Shampoo no mind."

Ranma nodded and turned to Penny, "Old Pervert, China Girl, China Girl's Hibachan, Spatula Girl, Monster Boy, Stupid Panda Man, Mallet User, Stick Boy, Lost Boy, Blind Boy, Spooky Boy, Laughing Ribbon Girl, Copy-cat Ken, Old Bald People, Dragon Prince, Winged Phoenix People, Sneaky Ninja people, Old Rat Man, Ghost Cat, need go on?"

Those not from Nerima had many sweat drops on their head as they heard that, Mumsey spoke up, "Interesting life?"

Ranma nodded and went back to eating. Everyone else shrugged and went back to eating.

One of the waiters as he walked by wiped his forehead with a washcloth, "Never again, I'm never serving a large crowd like this again." He walked off and went to go and get more tuna and sushi.

Gina looked at Brianna while she ate, "Okay Bri, spill it, why do you have that big grin on your face?"

Brianna just smiled at her sister while grinning ear-to-ear.

Britanny blinked, "I can't believe you, err, yes I can. Who did you get in the sack with you?"

Brianna just shrugged and continued to eat, "Someone who, for some reason, ended up in my bed after I went to sleep last night."

Shampoo blinked, "Sound like Lost Boy." Everyone from Nerima nodded.

Theo and Julia blinked, looked at each other, shrugged and went back to eating, moments later a disheveled Ryoga came into the room, Ranma blinked, "Hey Ryoga, what's up?"

Ryoga twitched and walked over to Ranma, he grabbed Ranma by his collar, "Just where is that stupid panda and his friend? This is all their fault."

Ranma blinked and knocked Ryoga's hands off of his collar, "I'm not really sure, something about living with some Werewolves for awhile, and man, you must've hit your head or something, you're not blaming me for this."

"This is so weird that you couldn't be at fault for a change."

Ranma shook his head and looked at Brianna across the table, "Can you catch?"

Brianna blinked and nodded. Ranma nodded at her and grabbed Ryoga and tossed him over the table and into Brianna's arms. Ryoga growled at Ranma, "Hey watch it! I might've gotten hurt!"

Ranma rolled his eyes, "Whatever." He looked at Brianna, "Take care of him, he's a nice guy, he just gets lost and gets depressed and angry easily, but he's nice otherwise."

Brianna just nodded and grinned, "Yep! I have every intention of doing so, he made me sore this morning, not easy to do!"

The Diggers just groaned at how open Brianna was. Sheila looked over at her fiancé, noticing he was smirking a little after the little show with Ryoga had occurred. "What's got you all grins for Ranma?"

Ranma turned to Sheila and lowered his voice a little. "Just the thought of Ryoga getting some is funny as hell. I mean he usually nosebleeds to death if he sees a hint of cleavage, and passes out if he sees more."

From their spots at the table next to Ranma and Sheila, Ukyo, Shampoo, Mousse, Kodachi, and Nabiki who overheard snickered.

"Ranma right, is funny concept." Shampoo snickered, having seen Ryoga react as Ranma's described firsthand she sure as hell found it funny.

"No kiddin' sugar." Ukyo giggled in agreement, her tone indicating she found it very amusing.

"So Ryoga, how's it feel to grow up past the shy boyhood stage?" Mousse chuckled.

"Aw shaddup!" Ryoga growled.

After having a small giggle herself from overhearing the conversation, Nodoka looked up from her food at her son. "Ranma, when exactly are you and Sheila moving to the Jade Realm?"

Ranma and Sheila looked at each other, murmured something in a tone too low for Nodoka's ear to pick up, and then turned to face her.

"From what everyone's been thinking the weddings are gonna be held within the next week or two, so most likely after that then." Sheila answered, while Ranma nodded in agreement.

"I see." Nodoka replied, a bit sadly. She had barely got to know her son after over a decade of separation, and now he was leaving again.

"Why don't you come to Jade with us Mom?"

Nodoka looked at Ranma, the question caught her off guard totally. "What?!"

"Why don't you come to Jade as well? I mean there's NOTHING here for you on Earth no reason to stay at all." Ranma said placing a hand atop his Mother's. "Besides I'd hate for you to be all alone again, and that way we don't have to bother gating between dimensions for a visit." He then smirked. "Sides when the kids are born Sheila and I could use a reliable babysitter eh Grandma?"

Nodoka's face brightened considerably, her hand gently squeezed Ranma's hand in an appreciative manner. "You really mean that son?"

"Of course."

"He is right Mrs. Saotome, we'd both love to have you around, be it a visit or watch the kids whenever Ranma either have to deal with work together or need some time alone." Sheila said sincerely in agreement with Ranma.

"With such an offer how an I refuse?" Nodoka replied smiling brightly.

(----)

Julia looked at the others, "So just where is everyone going to move?"

Brianna smiled broadly and hugged Ryoga's arm to her tightly, "He's coming with us." Ryoga just smiled nervously.

Julia blinked, "Oooookay. What about the rest of you?"

Kasumi hummed, "Well, I'm going to be living with Tirga."

Nabiki shrugged, "Gar offered to let me move in with him."

Julia nodded and looked at the Wererats, "What about you three?"

Lydia sighed, "We don't have a place to go right now."

"Yeah, you know, with Gothy dead, like, we're not sure what to do next."

Ukyou blinked, "Well, I'm still living here in Nerima, gotta do some things before I can move away."

Cologne nodded, "Same with us. I'll be sending a letter to the council to let them know just what has happened here."

Kodachi sighed, "I truly do not want to go home right now, if ever again. My brother seems to have problems with Lycanthropes and my father will just try and shave this fur off of me all the time."

Theo shrugged, "I don't see why you can't come and live on Jade Ms. Kuno."

"Really?"

"If you are truly worried about living in Nerima, then you can either move with us to Atlanta or you can relocate to Jade. It would not be unheard of, plus you would be safe."

"Thank you."

"Do not mention it."

Mumsey looked around, "So when are we having the weddings? And where?"

Ranma hummed, "Well, why not on Jade? Most of us are going to live there?"

Gina frowned, "Unfortunately, most of my family's friends live on Earth, they can't all make it."

Sheila hummed, "I don't see why we can't have multiple weddings on Earth?"

Britanny shook her head, "Unfortunately, most places on Earth don't do this kind of thing. But maybe we can get a Jaden priest to do an Earth-style wedding."

Everyone nodded and Mumsey spoke up, "That'll work."

Everyone just continued to eat for a bit, but then Theo blinked as a thought came to him, "Oh yes, and one more thing." He looked over at Ryoga and *FOOOSH!* burst into his Flame Skull mode, "Just how did you end up in my daughter's bed last night?"

Ryoga blinked, "Cool trick, but I don't know."

Ranma nodded, "Beats Soun's Demon Head, that's for sure."

Ryan and Thropan gawked at that, Ryan muttered to himself, "When he was facing us down, we acted like scared little girls."

Thropan nodded, "How can they not be phased by something like that."

Ranma heard that, thanks to his Jagwere hearing, "Simple, try facing down a pissed-off Phoenix fire god, now that's scary."

Ryoga hummed, "How about the eight-headed Orochi?"

"Shampoo think becoming Ghost Cat's wife scarier."

"Hmm, Ukyou-sama, what about my sisters?"

Ukyou chuckled, "Try the Seven Lucky Gods of Martial Arts."

Mousse smirked, "Or the guys on Togenkyo Island?"

Akane shook her head, "Try Taro's cursed form."

Nabiki hummed, "What about Happosai and those little bald people?"

Ryoga chuckled, "Or Cologne?"

Cologne whacked Ryoga over the head, "I'm still here Lost Boy."

"Yer point Old Ghoul?"

*CRACK*

Ranma rubbed his forehead, "What's the deal? You usually hit me harder than that."

*CRACK!*

Ranma's eye twitched and he rubbed his forehead, "Yep, that's how hard you usually hit me, too bad your stick broke."

Cologne shook her head and tossed the stick away, only to pull a new one out of her robes, "Respect your elders."

"I do. I give them as much respect as they've given me."

Cologne rolled her eyes, "I suppose."

Julia smirked a bit at Theo, "Seems that Skull Head of yours is totally useless here."

Theo frowned and grumbled a bit.
