The sand was warm underneath their bodies. Ranma knew that they had been gone for some time, but he wasn't sure quite how long. With Ryouga, one seemed to lose concepts of trivial things like time and place. The smooth salty air breezed over him. It was good to enjoy the ocean as a man for once. The sun was setting in the distance, casting a red hue over the beach. Bathing them both in the final light of the day, it was poignant to see a hint of wanting in Ryouga as he looked out across the sea. At least Ranma could enjoy the ocean as a human. Ryouga was different.

"I'm really glad you talked me into sticking around for the sunset, it's great," Ranma said.

"Isn't it though. And just when we get cold in the morning, it'll be time to go," Ryouga said.

"Yeah, that's cool," Ranma replied.

There was a silence between the two. The breeze blew the reeds further up the shoreline.

"You know Ranma, you didn't have to destroy that guys hat," Ryouga said finally.

"Look - I said I'm sorry already. I've never seen anything like that before. It looked like a small bear eating his head," Ranma said, spreading his hands.

"Didn't you think it was a little odd that he didn't MIND having that on?"

"What? I thought he was trying to play dead. And as I remember, you were pretty quick with the Shi Shi Hokkodon on the other," He replied.

Ryouga blushed. They looked at each other and neither could keep a straight face. Laughing, they both shift positions on their blankets to get some sleep before the sun was completely down. To the south, Ranma could make out a huge house with a bunch of straight columns and a triangle roof. It must have been huge if Ranma could make it out from here. These people and their weird looking white ruins. Ranma bet they had big stautes of old Gods in those buildings too. Nah-that was just too weird.

'Looks more like a temple than a house anyway. Oh well...' He thought, going to sleep.
