   Summary

   Ranma is in trouble, life is starting to get difficult, and the only safe thing to do is to get on a train and then walk all the way out to a quiet little dojo in the middle of Nerima, purely in the hopes that someone can possibly help.

   Ranma was -not- expecting getting in the door to go quite so easily, or for life to get so very messy immediately afterward.
