    In the bathroom, Nabiki finished undressing and entered the inner
bath.  She noticed immediately that the furo was empty.

    She sighed.  "Ah well, I'll just have a quick shower and go to bed."

    Just then there was a scratching on the window.  Nabiki cautiously
peered out and spotted a white and pink cat.  She opened the window and
helped the cat in.

    "Got splashed on the way home?"  Nabiki asked quietly.  "I'll run
you some hot water, Shampoo."

    The white cat meowed pleasantly, and Nabiki knelt to pet her.
Shampoo purred and moved affectionately against Nabiki's hands.

    Nabiki blinked.  "You know, Shampoo, you really are a beautiful
cat.  Just as much as when you're human."

    Shampoo purred louder and Nabiki giggled a bit.  "You don't get this
kind of attention very often, do you?"  She shook her head.  "No,
Cologne would just change you back and you'd have never let
Mousse get at you."  She stroked Shampoo some more, then went over to
turn on the shower.  "Oh!  Cold!"  Nabiki shivered and stepped back.
"It will take a bit for the water to warm up.  We can share it if you'd
like."  Shampoo rubbed up against her ankles and Nabiki knelt again to
pet her.  Again the Amazon turned cat responded enthusiastically to the
caress, encouraging Nabiki to increase her attentions.

    Nabiki was lost in thought as she petted Shampoo.  "You know, it's
been a long time since I petted a cat.  There used to be several strays
that would come by.  Kasumi would usually set out some scraps for them,
and I knew some of the regulars.  They never stayed, but I used to play
with them a bit when I was younger."  She sighed.  "Ever since Ranma
came, we've had to shoo all the cats away."

    Nabiki's fingers expertly found all the sensitive spots on Shampoo's
back.  Shampoo stretched and shivered from the attention.  Slowly
Nabiki's hands worked their way over her entire body, head,
neck, tail and legs, until Shampoo was completely relaxed.  She laid
down, rolling over first on her side, then on her back, to let Nabiki's
hands finish their work.  Almost unconsciously, Nabiki rubbed Shampoo's
belly, then worked down, gently circling Shampoo's nipples with her
fingers and stoking her between the legs.

    Shampoo parted her hind legs fully, encouraging Nabiki's hand to
linger.  Her fur was very fine there and her nerve endings very
sensitive.  Shampoo stretched, nearly insensate from the pleasure
of Nabiki's gentle touch.  Nabiki checked the water from the shower then
slowly stood, giving Shampoo one final pet.

    Nabiki glanced at her.  "Shampoo, the water's warm...."  Nabiki
blinked as Shampoo slowly rolled back on to her feet.  The middle Tendo
sister realized suddenly just what she had been doing to the
Amazon turned cat, and gulped.  Nabiki sighed and entered the shower,
followed closely by Shampoo.  Shampoo grew instantly, causing Nabiki to
nearly trip over her much larger form.

    The purple haired martial artist slowly got to her feet, stretching,
and turned to face Nabiki with a gentle, pleased expression.  "Shampoo
very much like what Nabiki do.  Was very pleasurable."  Shampoo brought
her hands up in Nabiki's sides gently, and started running them over her
sides and back slowly.  "Nabiki give much pleasure, so Shampoo return
favor, yes?"

    Nabiki's eyes were wide.  "Shampoo... no, that's OK...."  She turned
away from the Amazon, preparing to leave.

    Shampoo left her hands in place and moved closer, Nabiki's movement
bringing Shampoo's hands around to her front.  Shampoo stroked Nabiki's
belly gently, holding her from behind.  The purple
haired girl stepped in a bit more, so her breasts pressed lightly into
Nabiki's back, and ran her hands slowly up and down Nabiki's stomach and
chest.

    "No?"  Shampoo asked softly, one hand coming up to cup one of
Nabiki's breasts while the other traced lazy circles down her stomach.
"Does Nabiki want Shampoo to stop?"  Shampoo fondled her
breast gently and started to run her fingers around the nipple, not
quite touching.

    Nabiki moaned very softly, deep in her throat.  "Ah... ahhh...."

    Shampoo's other hand worked it's way down between the middle Tendo's
thighs, skirting the mound of hair there and gently stroking all around
it, particularly the inner thighs.  The warm water
cascading over them went unnoticed as their emotions started to flame in
passion.

    Nabiki finally surrendered to the inevitable.  "No.... I don't want
you to stop."

    Shampoo's hands found nipple and mound at the same time, lightly
tweaking one, gently cupping the other.  Nabiki gasped at the increased
sensation, barely able to believe that this could get better.  Slowly
she turned to face Shampoo.  The Amazon girls hands moving with her,
Nabiki raised her own hands, bringing them up to cup the Amazon's
breasts.

    "You want to repay pleasure for pleasure, Shampoo?"  Nabiki
smirked.  "Fine, I always like a win, win deal."  She abruptly kissed
Shampoo on the lips, bringing her hands to play on the Amazon's body.

    Shampoo returned the favor, slipping one finger, then a second
inside Nabiki's pussy as her other hand fondled her breasts and her
tongue wrestled playfully inside Nabiki's mouth.  Each girl kept
upping the ante, knowing that the other would match her actions.  Before

long they both started to orgasm.  Shampoo managed to keep her feet, but
Nabiki began collapsing to the floor from sheer pleasure.

    Shampoo followed her down, utilizing her martial artist's control
and stamina to stay in command of herself.  She kept pleasuring Nabiki
with her hands, causing the older girl to cum several more times. Nabiki

shuddered and writhed under the Amazon's attentions, unable to do
anything but enjoy it until Shampoo finally stopped as Nabiki's body hit
its peak pleasurable moment and the sensations started to wane.  They
lay under the showers spray for several minutes, basking in the
aftermath.

    Shampoo finally stood slowly and stretched.  Nabiki moaned a bit and

sat up, shutting off the shower.

    The short haired girl gave a mock frown.  "I owe you one now."
Nabiki's voice was gruff.  "And I don't like being in debt."

    Shampoo grinned at her.  "Nabiki pay Shampoo back later.  Shampoo
return early tomorrow, talk then."

    Nabiki sighed and shakily got to her feet.  "Yeah..., do you need a
change of clothes?  Don't want to run around naked...."  Shampoo grinned
and slipped into the outer bathroom.

    When Nabiki followed her, Shampoo was already throwing a short
Chinese dress over her head.  "Nabiki no worry."

    Nabiki snorted.  "About you?  Not much need too."

    Shampoo nodded and strode back into the bathroom.  "Shampoo is
strong, yes.  Nabiki smart not worry."

    Nabiki sighed.  "Shampoo, I...."

    The Amazon smiled.  "Shampoo know, Shampoo care about Nabiki too."
She jumped out the bathroom window, and was gone.

    Nabiki stared bemusedly after, slowly shaking her head.  "Now that
was... memorable...."  She sighed and grabbed a towel.  "Just the drug,
Nabiki, it was just the drug."  Drying herself off, she
smiled faintly. "It was still good... very good...."  Nabiki frowned.
"Too damn good.  How in the hell am I going to top that?"  She
shrugged.  "I'll just have to be inventive."

        ***************************************

    Downstairs, Ukyo, Akane and Kasumi sat quietly, each thinking about
the next day and its consequences.

    Ranma came in after awhile, rubbing his jaw.  "Well, it took a bit
of practice, but I've got it down now."  He shrugged tiredly.  "I'm
going to bed."

    Kasumi blinked.  "Oh. Ranma, you're done training already?"

    Ranma nodded.  "Yup.  I would've gone on longer, but Pops and Mr.
Tendo are done for the night.  Maybe you should put a couple of blankets
over them or something."  He paused.  "Oh, Kasumi, don't worry too much
about tomorrow.  I've got it covered."

    Akane and Ukyo blinked and glanced at each other.  Kasumi stood and
went to the hall closet for some blankets, and Ranma walked upstairs
quietly.  Kasumi came out with the blankets and looked
curiously at Akane and Ukyo.

    Akane started to stand then shook her head, sitting back down.  "No,
let Ranma have his surprise.  Kasumi, I'll just go to bed as well.
Goodnight."  She glanced at Ukyo.  "Wanna stay in my room
tonight?"

    Ukyo nodded.  "Sure....  I'll be up in a few minutes."

    Kasumi just smiled.  "Don't take too much noise."  She headed out to

the dojo to check on the fathers.

    Ukyo waited until she heard Akane close her bedroom door, then
quickly snuck upstairs herself.

    She approached Nabiki's room silently and paused before it,
considering.  < What Kasumi said is true, Nabiki does care, in her own
way, and I care for her.  It's most likely the drug talking, but I
would miss her.>  Ukyo nodded to herself.  < There's only one way to
convince Nabiki we're serious about wanting her as part of this
marriage, and... for some reason, this feels right.>

    Ukyo opened the door and slipped inside.  Nabiki wasn't there, but
she would probably show up soon.

    Ukyo nervously looked around the middle Tendo's room, her eyes
finally fixing on the bed.  "I can't believe I'm doing this."  She
whispered to herself.  "First Akane, now Nabiki.  I spend ten years
as a guy, and now I'm going around seducing women."  Ukyo shook her
head. "That's one hell of a drug.  Now I know why Cologne said it was
outlawed."  She shivered.  "I know I'm under its influence, but the
thought of Nabiki... or Akane or Kasumi... and especially Ranma...."

    Ukyo shivered again.  "Even with all the fighting Shampoo and I have
done... I'd be seriously tempted if she were here and willing."  Ukyo
sighed and went over to the bed and began stripping off her clothes.
"I'm going to feel pretty silly if Nabiki kicks me out, but, nothing
ventured...."  Ukyo finished stripping as she heard someone started to
open the door.  Quickly she slid under the covers, leaving her clothing
on the floor.

    Nabiki entered the room slowly, wearing only a towel.  She yawned
and started for her bed, stopping suddenly when she noticed it was
already occupied.  Nabiki shut the door behind her, and blinked at the
occupant in her bed.  The long hair, and the clothing next to her bed
told her who it was.

    "Ukyo?"  Nabiki asked quietly.  "What are you doing in my bed?"

    Ukyo looked back nervously, holding the covers up to her chest as
she sat up.  "I was... waiting for you, Nabiki."  She looked down.
"Hey, no pressure....  If you want me to leave, I will."  Nabiki blinked
again, unsure how to respond.  She found herself powerfully attracted to
the Okonomiyaki chef.

    Ukyo's unspoken offer drew her toward the bed like a magnet, but
Nabiki resisted.  "Why?  Why are you doing this?"

    Ukyo shrugged, her bare shoulders flashing dimly in the low light.
"Do you really need to ask?  I am attracted to you.  Yes, it's probably
the drug... but so what?  The fact is I am attracted to you, and I
probably will be for a long time.  Is it any different for you?"

    Nabiki frowned.  "No... no, it's not, but it's not like I can't
control myself.  You've got Ranma, Shampoo and my sisters....  Why me,
why now?"

    Ukyo smiled faintly.  "I'm not really sure, in the end.  I wanted to
show you how I felt.  It's not charity I feel for you, Nabiki... and if
I'm getting married tomorrow, and you're not becoming part of
that.... I want to say good-bye...."

    Nabiki sighed, then walked to the bed.  She stretched slowly,
feeling a bit stiff from her encounter with Shampoo, and quite tired.
The Amazon had been gentle, but through.  Nabiki was thankful that
at the least she wasn't sore.

    "Sure, why not.  I'm bound to regret this tomorrow but..."  Nabiki
let her towel drop.  "But right now I'm finding it hard to say no."

    Ukyo grinned slyly up at her.  "Oh, so that's a yes?"

    Nabiki nodded and pulled back the covers.  "Mmm hmm.  Just... go
easy on me, OK?  It's been a very long day."

        *******************************

    Kasumi finished covering her father with a blanket and went inside
the house.  He and Mr. Saotome were sound asleep, but seemed uninjured.
She wondered idly what Ranma's new technique was, then headed up to her
room.

    Kasumi paused outside of her door and glanced over at Nabiki's
room.  < What can I do?>  She wondered to herself.  < How can I help
Nabiki?>  She sighed and went into her room.

        *******************************

    Ukyo rolled off Nabiki with a satisfied sigh.  She glanced over at
the Tendo girl fondly and received a tired smile in return.  Ukyo
lightly caressed Nabiki's chin.  The middle sister hadn't been nearly as

energetic as Akane, but she had made up for that with finesse and
thoughtfulness.

    Ukyo stretched slowly.  "I told Akane I'd sleep in her room
tonight."  She whispered.  "I'd better go before she misses me."

    Nabiki nodded tiredly.  "Go.  Goodnight... Ucchan."  Nabiki smiled
faintly at Ukyo.  She was really tired now, but Ukyo's lovemaking had
been very nice.  Nabiki was touched by the gesture,
and wondered idly if keeping herself out of the group marriage was such
a good idea after all.  Ukyo left silently and Nabiki closed her eyes.
< First Shampoo, then Ukyo.  I wonder... are they just being nice to
me?  Ukyo did say that this was her way of saying good-bye.  Was it the
same for Shampoo or just spontaneous sex?>

    Nabiki snorted.  < Knowing Shampoo, it was spur of the moment.>
Nabiki blinked slowly.  <I'll miss it when they're all married to each
other... I wonder if I can get Shampoo or Ukyo to go for a
repeat performance or two, or even a regular thing?>  Nabiki nodded to
herself.  < Yeah, I don't have to marry all of them, I'll be fine with
occasionally getting some from one of them.  I'm sure we can work
something out.  The others won't complain, I bet, not with what they've
got going.>

    Having worked out a possible solution to her present problem, Nabiki
started to drift off to sleep.  She blinked her eyes open as she heard
her door open slowly.

        *****************************

    Kasumi opened the door to Nabiki's room slowly, having changed into
her nightgown.  She had paused before going to bed, then gone over to
her sister's room, deciding to have a talk with Nabiki.

    When Kasumi entered Nabiki's room, she was pleased to see her sister

awake and looking at her.  The incredulous expression on Nabiki's face
confused Kasumi a bit, but as usual Kasumi chose to ignore it.

    Quietly, Kasumi closed the door and crossed the room to the bed.
"Nabiki-chan, do you mind if we talk?"

    Nabiki blinked and yawned sleepily.  "I don't mind, Sis.  If we keep

it short.  I'm kinda tired."

    Kasumi nodded and lightly sat on the edge of the bed.

    Nabiki looked up at her older sister questioningly.  "Why are you
here, Kasumi?"

    Kasumi looked back, her expression thoughtful.  "I was wondering if
you'd thought about your own feelings, Nabiki.  I"m afraid you'll be
hurt if you're left out of...."  Kasumi hesitated, trying to think of a
proper phrase.

    Nabiki helpfully supplied one.  "The group marriage?"

    Kasumi nodded, grateful that her sister had chosen to be diplomatic
about it.  "Yes.  Nabiki, won't you be lonely?  The drug Mousse used...
it's quite powerful.  I... I myself have been finding it hard to
resist.  This last month has not been easy.  I couldn't imagine years
like that."

    Nabiki smiled softly.  "I can....  It wouldn't be easy, but I could
manage, really.  Besides, Sis, I think you may be exaggerating a bit.
I'm sure you've been able to resist... temptation, easily enough."
Kasumi blushed and looked away.

    Even in the faint light Nabiki was aware of her sisters
embarrassment.  "Kasumi?  Sis?  No way... who?"

    Kasumi spoke quietly.  "It was quite... unexpected, actually.  Ranma

had confessed he loved me... I didn't really believe it at first, then
he pushed me down.... He wasn't going to do anything else.  Ranma is
quite honorable about these things.  He was just defeating me in combat,
so I would marry him.  He was quite gentle and asked me if I
surrendered.  I kissed him, right then.  I knew he wouldn't try
anything, and I suddenly very much wanted him to."

    Nabiki whistled.  "Whoa, not bad.  I'm impressed that Ranma managed
even that much."

    Kasumi smiled fondly.  "Mmm hmm."  She blushed fiercely, remembering

what had followed.

    Nabiki didn't notice.  "So that's how you got included in the
marriage.  Not bad, sis.  Still, you didn't do too much, just kiss him."

    Kasumi shook her head.  "That's... not quite true."

    Nabiki blinked.  "Oh?  Don't tell me Ranma finally went for it?"

    Kasumi smiled faintly.  "Actually, I seduced him.  Ranma was very
sweet about it."

    Nabiki blinked incredulously.  "You... seduced him?  You mean...
you... he... all the way?"  Kasumi nodded silently.  Nabiki whistled
softly.  "So... how was he?"

    Kasumi's blush deepened.  "Wonderful.  Ranma was... very... very
good."

    Nabiki exhaled softly.  "I... envy you... except... I wouldn't want
to be in your shoes when Ukyo or Shampoo find out.  Akane probably won't
be too pleased either."

    Kasumi looked down at Nabiki.  "Actually, Akane and Ukyo walked in
on us.  We were in the living room you see...."  She blushed again, then
continued.  "They didn't seem to mind."  Nabiki was speechless,
imagining the scene.  Ranma and Kasumi, naked, making out in the living
room....

    Nabiki  blushed and her breathing quickened.  "Ah... I see..."  She
calmed herself with an effort.  "Still, seeing it's you, sis.  I guess I
can understand them not being jealous."

    Kasumi blinked.  "Oh?"

    Nabiki coughed.  "That didn't come out right... I mean, everyone
likes you, sis.  You're such a nice person, it's hard to get mad at
you."

    Kasumi smiled.  "Why thank you, Nabiki-chan."

    Nabiki smiled back.  "It's only the truth."  She sighed.  "Anyway,
if it had been anyone else, I'm sure they wouldn't have been so
forgiving about it."

    Kasumi brought her hand to Nabiki's face and caressed her cheek,
then ran her fingers gently through her hair.  "You mean if it had been
you.  I don't think so, Nabiki, they would have understood.  Akane and
Ukyo care for you, too.  They don't want you to be alone, anymore than
Ranma does."

    Nabiki turned her head.  "Hmmph"  In response, Kasumi bent over and
kissed Nabiki on the cheek.  Nabiki glared at her, bringing her hand up
to her cheek.  "What was that for?"

    Kasumi just looked back sadly.  "Because I love you, Nabiki-chan. I
don't want you to be lonely either.  I'd miss you if you were gone."

    Nabiki shook her head, bringing her arm up to lay her palm against
Kasumi's cheek.  "It's alright, Kasumi, older sister. Don't pretend for
me.  You may care for me, but love?  A sister's love, maybe, anything
else is the drug."

    Kasumi shook her head.  "Not everything."  She reached down.

    Nabiki's movements had uncovered her right breast and Kasumi cupped
it gently.  Nabiki's sudden intake of breath was muffled by Kasumi's
sudden kiss.  Nabiki froze, then responded.  She was tired, but she
needed this, very much.  Kasumi broke the kiss and began pulling up her
nightgown.

    Nabiki lay back.  "K-Kasumi..."

    Kasumi dropped her nightgown to the floor and leaned over her
sister.  "Yes, Nabiki?"

    Nabiki swallowed, feeling weak.  "We're... we're sisters...."

    Kasumi nodded.  "Yes..."  She sat up slowly.  "What I feel for
you... isn't  very sisterly, is it?"

    Nabiki reached up and stopped her hand an inch away from touching
Kasumi's silk bra.  "No... but...."  Nabiki sighed.  "That doesn't
change how you feel, does it?"

    Kasumi was frozen, her whole being focused on the hand so close to
her.  Nabiki brought her hand in the last half inch, and gently caressed
her older sisters breast through the fabric of her bra.

    "No... it doesn't."  Kasumi reached forward and undid her bra,
letting it fall away.

    Nabiki continued to fondle her sister's now unfettered breasts.
Kasumi bent over again and kissed Nabiki on the lips.  Despite her
fatigue, Nabiki felt herself responding.  Slowly, Kasumi pulled back
the covers, ready to stop instantly if Nabiki wasn't ready.  Nabiki was
too tired to protest, and found she didn't actually want to.  Nabiki
found her strength returning as Kasumi slid down her body.

    Kasumi released the kiss and slid down to lick Nabiki's breasts,
kissing and sucking on the nipples.  She slid down further, planting
kiss after kiss down Nabiki's belly until she reached the mound of hair
between Nabiki's thighs.  With only a slight hesitation Kasumi continued

pleasuring her sister.  Finding Nabiki already moist, Kasumi gently
opened her pussy lips with two fingers and
stimulated the clitoris until it was fully engorged.  Nabiki was panting
a bit at the sensations and when Kasumi brought her mouth to play,
licking and gently sucking her most sensitive area's

    Nabiki sighed in extreme pleasure, stroking her fingers through her
older sister's hair.  Kasumi brought her to orgasm gradually, and held
her their for what seemed like minutes, although it had been more like
seconds.  Nabiki nearly fainted as the pleasure faded.  Kasumi,
extremely pleased to have given her younger sister so much pleasure,
quietly slipped out from under the covers, and gently
covered Nabiki up again, realizing that she was nearly asleep.

    Nabiki whispered to her as Kasumi slipped away.  "Kasumi... I love
you too."  Kasumi smiled warmly at her sister, dressed silently, and
left.

        *******************************

    Akane had laid in bed, quietly thinking after Ukyo had shown up. The
Okonomiyaki chef had fallen asleep quickly on the futon Akane had laid
out for her, but Akane couldn't sleep.  She was worried
about Nabiki.  Finally, when Akane was sure Ukyo was sound asleep, she
snuck quietly out of her room, and into Nabiki's.

    Akane crept over to Nabiki's bed and looked down at her sleeping
older sister.  "Nabiki?"  She whispered.  "Nabiki are you asleep?"

    Nabiki blinked blearily and looked up at her.  "Not any more...
A-Akane."  Nabiki suddenly broke out into a cold sweat.  < Akane too?
This is... I can't believe....>  Akane was mumbling something
about her feeling and not being very sisterly, and Nabiki sighed. < Oh
what the hell.>

    Akane was struck speechless when Nabiki stopped her monologue in mid
word by kissing her forcefully on the mouth.  Nabiki let her body guide
her actions and went on automatic, fumbling with Akane's clothing and
pulling her into bed.  Akane was startled to find Nabiki already naked,
apparently eager, and smelling of sex.

    Akane immediately jumped to the wrong conclusion.  < Oh, poor
Nabiki, she must be driven by her dreams, desperate for attention! I
can't refuse her.>

    Nabiki was grateful to be able to lay back and relax as Akane took
over, quickly stripping herself and applying her attention to Nabiki
with enthusiasm.  Nabiki managed to find the energy to respond, her
fingers by now knowing just what to do.  After both girls had satisfied
the other they lay side by side quietly listening to each other breathe.

    Nabiki wearily patted Akane's hand.  "Akane... you should go back to
your room before you fall asleep in here, OK?"

    Akane nodded.  "Sure, Nabiki... I... I don't want to lose you."

    Nabiki wearily patted her hand again.  "You won't. OK?  Really.  Now
go to bed."

    Akane kissed her sister's cheek.  "I love you, Nabiki."

    Nabiki tiredly smiled.  "Yeah... ditto, Akane-chan."

    Akane slipped out of bed and quickly dressed in her pajamas, then
quietly slipped back into her room.

    Nabiki lay there, almost too tired to sleep.  "What a night."  She
murmured to herself.  "They all came to me.  I guess, maybe... maybe it
isn't charity after all."  She moaned softly.  "Ah... well,
now I know you can indeed have too much of a good thing.  If one more
person comes in here to ravish me, I'm going to...."

    Slowly her door opened and a dark form crept in.  "Nabiki?"  Came
the familiar male voice.  "I couldn't sleep.  We've got to talk
about...."

    Nabiki was torn between screaming, laughing, and falling
unconscious.  "Ranma... alright, I'll marry you, just... I'm very tired
right now, OK?  So we can have sex tomorrow after you beat me up."

    Ranma blinked.  "Ah...."  He stepped slowly back out the door.  "Ah,
OK, Nabiki...."  He closed the door and looked confusedly at the name
plate.  "Yup, that was Nabiki's room, and that sounded
like Nabiki...." He sighed and turned to go back to his own room.  "I
don't think I'll ever understand women, even if I am one half the time."
