runaway (4)
The order
Hello everyone! I am happy to present you the next part of my FF:
Part 4 - "The job" - my runaway story.
Special thanks to:
MDK - thank you, I'll finish all of the stories I have started ^^
ghostgoku - glad to hear that
Noran - I find the name strange, but I can explain the FFs to you:
In addition to Ranma, animemanga.de also operates YGO and DBZ sites. The FFs that are entered on one of these pages can be read on all of them. So you have a common FF archive. DBZ fans apparently write more FFs than Ranma fans ...

(my comment)
IMPORTANT: if the "" character is not recognized, write ranma. de sometimes any combination of numbers. (& 87234 or something like that) If this is the case, you can write me a Pn, then you will get the FF by email.I'll try to fix it on the site, of course, but I can't guarantee it'll work.

Akane was shocked to see the condition outside:
One could see the world as if through a whitish veil. No movements, no sounds, only this strange light penetrated.
They argued fiercely what it could be, but came to no conclusion. The phone didn't work and they thought going out was too risky.
Akane's voice sounded thin through the empty, silent house: "And what do we do now?"
There was no reply from Ranma as he put his arm around her shoulder and led her into the kitchen so she could try to do something. Who knew what was in store for them?
~ ~ ~ ~
With her coat wrapped tightly around her body, she took a few steps towards the house.
* That worked out better than I expected ... let's see how you react to my suggestion.The way I think Ranma will cause trouble at first. Best of all, I don't let him have his say ... *
The woman had stopped briefly to look at the house that rose up in front of her, together with the garden. Actually everything looked the same, but the environment had changed. Everything outside the garden wall seemed strangely milky white, as if it were hidden behind a veil. The contours were blurred, the colors indistinct.
She started moving and rang the doorbell briefly ...
~ ~ ~ ~
+ thing, dong +
"Akane? Did you hear that? It rang! Maybe ... the whole thing is just an imagination of us ..." "No, I don't think so ... come on, open up!" Urgent and curious gave Akane shoved her fiancé towards the front door. After the first shock about the state outside, she wanted to know why someone was ringing the doorbell now, whether it was all real and what it all meant.“Wait!” Ranma grabbed Akane gently by the arm and pushed her back into the kitchen. "Heh! What's that supposed to mean ?!" ... of course, her protest was not long in coming.
"Who knows what the bell was ringing out there ... you stay here, if it gets dangerous you lock yourself in around Bad. Then I don't have to worry that you might get in my way because ..." Akane's aura began to flicker ominously and her right hand had deposited the hammer ready to hand. "So I'm always in your way? I AM HELPING YOU TO FIND OUT, YOU TROTTEL !!!"
Before she could go at him with the hammer, however, Ranma gave in quickly: "Let me finish - I didn't say that you were in my way. I said that you could be in my way because ... "Wrong tactic.
The hammer was at eye level with its owner. The eyes narrowed, the hand tightened on the handle."Now wait a minute ... I just want that I don't have to worry about something happening to you ..."
Obviously Akane had decided to leave the beating for today, at least she put the hammer back in the ... well, stopped somewhere and instead made her way to the front door. She ignored Ranma's protest, after all she could take care of herself.
* That fool ... idiot! I can probably take care of myself! *
A look over his shoulder let you know that he was right behind her, then the door opened with a jerk.
~ ~ ~ ~
* Aha, after the rumbling, they slowly set out to open up to me. The way I judge Ranma, he tried to persuade Akane to go into hiding. And after the row, she did not agree ... *
~ ~ ~ ~
"Huh, who are you?"
In front of her was a woman about her size.At first glance, she looked her age, but if you looked closer you could tell that she must be older. Her appearance, her demeanor and the knowing glitter betrayed a very high level of sophistication in life.
With a friendly look she looked at the two in front of her as they looked at her in amazement. Apparently they had already recovered from the initial shock about the new state of their world.
"Hello Akane, hello Ranma. I'm here to inform you about the current situation. But I would like to come in ... between the door and the hinge it's not that good conversation."
Akane and Ranma looked at her first speechless, then surprised, then a little suspiciously but finally curiously.
Akane invited her into the house. "Oh, of course. Sorry for being so rude, but I'm a little taken by surprise ..."
After the tea and some biscuits had been put on the table by Kasumi, the two sat down opposite the strange woman.For a short time there was silence before Ranma could not hold back: "Who are you actually?"
The stranger had to smile.
"Well, I don't have a real name, as it is in your passport or baptismal certificate, for example. I get different names from different people. Imagine: Even those who don't believe in my existence give me names. I think , the most common is Juno ... at least that's how he was about 2500 years ago. "
Given the somewhat perplexed faces of Ranma and Akane, she briefly considered another name.
"Ah! I know! They also called me Hera, but that was still the Greeks, they weren't particularly active in Roman times ..."
Akane looked at her skeptically.
"You mean to say that you are the mother of all gods, who somehow cut me and Ranma off from the world and now comes to us to just talk to us. That sounds kind of improbable, but despite everything, like trouble."The goddess had to smile. Akane had gotten to the point.
"Right Akane. I need your help. But first I want to explain the thing with the gods to you: I am not the mother of all gods, but only of two: One of you call Aphrodite or Venus, are their most famous names as far as I know myself I think the other is called Hades by you. But he is not mean, as the legends always claim. The other gods are by no means inventions, but they are not my children.
Well, I'm with you because I want to ask you something: I know that A ..., I mean my husband, called Zeus or Kami-sama by you, is here. He's pretty lazy and I've been doing his job for almost 400 years. I'm sick of it, after all, I have to do my job too. He's hiding here somewhere, but I don't have enough time to look for him, so I wanted to ask you to find him for me. "Ranma quietly put his teacup on the table and then raised her eyes to meet her bright green eyes.
"Well, I'm really ... honored ... that you ..."
She interrupted him briefly: "You don't need to Siezen me."
"... well ... that you chose me and Akane to look for your husband, but unfortunately I have to tell you that we can't do that."
Akane wanted to interrupt Ranma and protest against it, in order to prevent her from doing so he gently but firmly covered her mouth.
A slight smile played around her mouth as she answered Ranma:
"a fear it won't be dangerous for Akane ..."
When Ranma wanted to protest, she didn't even let her have a say.
"Hear me out. It's by no means dangerous in any way. It's just that you have to get him to look in that mirror. He has magical abilities that you don't need to use.Try not to look in the mirror though ... I've never tried it, but it is said to have dire consequences for mortals looking at themselves in that mirror.
Well, anyway ... you both should be able to work as a team to get him.
By the way, I didn't choose you for a specific reason, it was just that he used your house as a hiding place.
You must have wondered why everything outside is milky-white ... well, I used a magic clock to get out of time. Time just keeps running in here, the rest of the world stands still until you've caught it.
I don't really want to blackmail you, but you really have no choice. If you catch him, of course you will get a reward. "
She wanted to turn to go and leave the two speechless youngsters behind when she remembered something.
"yeah ... you don't even know what it looks like: it can take any shape.He's always been happy to do that. But don't worry, it doesn't make every woman pregnant, it was an invention of the Greeks. We actually always call him Arai and not Zeus or something ...
And about your pimples, which you noticed the other day: it was me too - but rather accidentally - when I slowly got you out of time, so don't panic, you won't shrink and you won't get any younger. Just call me Tara, that's what everyone I know calls me.
Well then ... I'll come when you have him. See you soon"
A moment later she was gone.
It took a moment for the two who stayed behind to recover. Ranma was the first to find the language again.
"Has she just given us the order, without any information, help or alternative, to catch a god?"
"Well, I think so ... do you understand what she was explaining about that time thing?"
"No ... not exactly. I think she was basically telling us that we are stuck here until we catch this ... father of gods or whatever he is."He considered for a moment before coming to a conclusion what to do next.
"Ok. Listen: As I understand it, he's somewhere in our house and can't get out because we're out of time ..."
"And how do you know that, please? She didn't say a word about it, after all."
"Well, if he could get out, we wouldn't have a chance to find him. Anyway ... I don't want you loitering around here by yourself. After all, we don't know this guy and I don't want to worry."
Ranma looked very serious to me once.
* Just like he's worried. *
But Akane
