Kasumi's Discovery

By: Missfortune

See part 1: Drunkard's Revenge for Disclimers and notes, the same stuff applies.

Kasumi was walking home from here local white witches' chapter meeting. It was late at night as she strolled through the darkened park. As she walked her senses seemed to cry out. She followed them and was shocked to find Ranma bruised, bloody and nude under a tree in a puddle of semen. Blood and semen dribbled down his legs and horrible scenarios ran through her mind.

She bent down over the boy and was relieved to find that Ranma was still alive. She shook him gently.

"Ranma, Ranma, wake up," she whispered.

"Hmm, Ryou-chan," he mumbled.

"No, its me Kasumi," Kasumi replied.

"Wha? Where's Ryou-Chan?" Ranma asked barely awake.

"Oh dear, was he with you when this happened?!" Kasumi asked.

"Yeah."

"Did they take him?" Kasumi asked worrying about the lost boy. She hoped that some gang didn't kidnap him.

"No, he took me," Ranma giggled before he passed out again.

"Oh my!" Kasumi didn't know what to make of the situation but she did know that she had to get Ranma home quickly. With unnatural strength she picked up the sleeping boy and swiftly carried him back to the Dojo. Rather than disturbing the rest of the house she brought him to her small private bathroom. She placed him in the shower and splashed him with cold water in an attempt to wake him. The only reaction she got was Ranma turning into a girl and mumbling "What'd ya do that for?"

Kasumi shook her head and turned on the warm water filling the tub around Ranma and gently washing him clean. Ranma stayed dead to the world through out the whole bath. Kasumi drained the tub and picked up the sleeping boy once more, wrapping him in a large fluffy towel. She brought him into her bedroom and laid him down on the bed.

She went to retrieve the ever-present first aid kit and set to work on Ranma's wounds. She rubbed a healing salve on the multiple bruises all over his body and bandaged the jagged wound on his shoulder. It looked suspiciously like a bite mark. But whatever it was it was going to leave a scar. She opened her private herb cabinet and mixed up a concoction, which she gave to Ranma while he slept. It would prevent him from having a hangover in the morning. With all the other things Ranma was going to have enough to deal with without a hangover on top of it all.

"Ranma what happened to you?" she whispered as she stroked the hair away from his forehead. She concentrated and her hand began to glow. She closed her eyes and images began to flicker in her mind. There was a party. They got drunk. Ryouga was taking Ranma home. He got lost. They stopped in the park. Ranma kissed Ryouga's thigh. Ryouga taking advantage of Ranma. Ranma admitting his love. Ryouga walking off. "Oh Ranma!" she murmured as she opened her eyes and wiped away the tears that were falling from her eyes.

"You've been in love with him for a long time, haven't you? And now look what he's done to you. He stole your innocence and walked away. Don't worry Ranma. I'm here for you. I'll take care of you," Kasumi said softly. She had always looked upon Ranma as the little brother she'd never had. She hated to see everyone beat on him, but there wasn't much she could do without outing herself.

She sighed as she looked down at the boy sleeping so peacefully in her bed. Would he be so peaceful when he woke up and remembered what had happened to him? Would the implications crush him? The realization that he was raped by the one he loved? Kasumi was very worried. She decided that it would be her new mission to protect Ranma from everyone, including himself. The time for non-action was over. Things around here were going to change.
