In the canon timeline, it was Ukyo who stopped Ranma and Shampoo from being bound forever. In this one, Shampoo now has to plan to keep Ukyo from sealing Ranma to her.
Not that either knew about it at all.
"Hey, uh, Ran-chan... you got your string stuck to me..." Ukyo raised an eyebrow as she tugged on it.
They were in her restaurant, and the string got wrapped around Ukyo as Ranma got her food.
Ranma was oblivious. "Oh I could get a lot stuck with you..."
Ukyo blushed. "Wait, wait, wait, what?!"
"We really should get married, that way I can eat all of this Okonomiyaki all the time, and be with you..." Ranma sighed, eating her meal.
Ukyo blushed harder. "S-stop teasing me like that!"
She turned away, covering her face.
The motion jerked Ranma's arm around so she ate with her other hand.
'What is he doing?!' Ukyo's mind raced. 'Is, is he making fun of me by doing it as a girl? Is it a drug? He does look glazed over a bit... but what if it is real and I could be alone with him and, and!'
The imagination of the chef ran wild and caused her to glow as red as Ranma's own hair.
"Hey Ucchan, lets's leave this place and travel the world, it is too annoying here with everyone wanting to kill and or marry me all the time..." Ranma sighed. "So annoying..."
'Yes, yes it is annoying!' Ukyo screamed internally. 'This HAS to be a prank!'
Ranma finished up her plate. "You always make the best, more please..."
Ukyo turned around and grabbed Ranma by the collar. "What do you want?! Is it the food? I bet it is the food but I already give you so much! What is it?! Do you mean it! STOP PLAYING WITH MY HEART YOU JACKASS!"
"Why wouldn't I mean it?" Ranma answered. "Once I am married to you, I don't have to deal with everyone else..."
Ukyo's heart went into overdrive and the beats could be felt in her ears.
'WHY IS HE A GIRL THEN?! Is, is it so important that he sees it as more vital than some hot water?! Maybe he can only be so romantic while being a girl?! Or... Or! OR IS HE LOCKED?!' Ukyo screamed internally, desperately trying to find answers. 'Or... or maybe... maybe he WANTS to be a girl! I mean a girl is more likely to be the one raising k1ds when we marry... is it because I am so manly still?! Does, does Ranma still see me as too masculine?! Is it because I have a livelihood and a male school uniform and a... or does he just see me as the man in the relationship!? Well, it... it doesn't matter really if Ranma is a boy or a girl... or both... if... if really is like this... if... if he is!'
It was too much for her heart... and her nose.
*SPLURTTT*
Ukyo fell to the floor, unconscious, her nose bleeding and a giant smile on her face.
The action yanked Ranma over the grill and onto her.
"Ucchan?" Ranma blinked in confusion.
After no response, Ranma picked her up and carried her up the stairs to her room.
"Must be working too hard..." Ranma rationalized.
The pigtailed girl tucked Ukyo into her bed, and held her hand, the red string connecting the two.
