Was this someone's idea of a joke? If so, it wasn't especially funny. Akane gripped the book in her hands tightly, oh so very tightly. Staring at the cover, hard enough that it should have caught fire by now if this were a just universe. It had not. Which proved several things she already believed about her life.
<i>”Learn to Cook with Succubus-chan!”</i> the book’s title was printed in a cute pink font. The cover art was that of a cute chibi girl with with an apron holding a pot of food in her hands, steam coming out of the pot but not obscuring the chibi anime drawing’s red eyes, fangs, horns or wings.
Someone was trolling her. There was no other way to think of it. Which meant there were three likely suspects for whoever might dare leave such a thing on her bed. And number one on her shitlist was a certain pigtailed boy who was sometimes a pigtailed girl.
Akane stormed out of her room with the book in hand, and soon thereafter found said boy lounging in the guest room where the Saotomes had taken residence. Lying there with his dumb face stuck in some dumb comic while munching on a dumb apple.
You can tell that she was in a pretty bad mood, all truth told. If you wanted more evidence, well now she was yanking him up by his pigtail and thrusting the book in his big dumb handsome face.
Ignore that last adjective it wasn't important.
"Did you do this?" Akane asked him. Not yelling. Not yet. First she wanted confirmation of the troll. Then she would yell.
"No," Ranma cooly answered. "I'm not an author, and I can't draw half that good."
"Not what I mean, and you know it!" Akane seethed. "Did you put this book on my bed?"
"No," Ranma answered. "Kinda wish I did, though. You could stand to learn a thing or a million about cooking... And about being as cute as Succubus-chan!"
He didn't know anything. Ranma was pretty good at tricking people with his actions, but not so much with his words. Still! Mocking her like that wasn't something she could let him get away with so easily, even if she was no closer to learning who had dared to put -
"Hey, Akane!" Nabiki called while walking past the guest room. "I see you found my gift on your bed."
Enter number two on her shitlist. Her older sister, who loved trolling people even more than Ranma. But preferred targeting him than her. "Nabiki! Giving me something like this -"
"No need to thank me," Nabiki smirked. "After all, you can stand to learn a thing or a million about cooking. And being cute like Succubus-chan."
"Nabiki, you stole my joke!" Ranma protested. "Not that it's untrue or anything..."
Akane cursed the banes of her existence under her breath. Oh well, at least it hadn't been Happosai. Her shitlist was too good for him, she needed something stronger.
"Well, what's the big idea of giving me something like this?" Akane protested, waving the book in Nabiki' s face. "Succubus-chan? What sort of perverted idea is this supposed to be?!"
"It's not an ero-book," Nabiki patiently said. Her sister started inspecting her fingernails as if nothing in the world could possibly shock her. "It's a genuine series of teaching manuals that have become really popular recently."
"Yeah, Hiroshi and Daisuke swear by them," Ranma said. "They're trying to get a copy of every topic."
"While I've been using it to brush up on my Western Literature," Nabiki added, giving Akane a shrug. "They're very effective books. Whoever writes them knows what they're talking about."
“But why a succubus?
"Marketing!" Both Ranma and Nabiki said at once.
"Go ahead little sis, give it a try," Nabiki said. "I think Succubus-chan will surprise you."
"She won't." Ranma took a big bite out of his apple, resuming reading his comic. "Chick like that doesn't have the guts to check out something like this."
"Oh, now I don't have the courage to read something slightly smutty?" Akane yelled. "W-Well, I'll show you! I'll read this dumb book through to the end, and then I'll tell you what I really think of it!"
Honestly, the pair of them! They didn't normally get on, but when they did they were a devastating double act. While she was all for his fiance getting on better with her family, she dearly wished it wasn't at her expense!
Anyway, that's what led to this moment: Akane sitting at her desk, firmly gripping the pages of this book. She glowered at the succubus on the cover. Then she turned to the first page and was greeted by a picture of 'Succubus-chan' wearing an apron and cheerfully waving.
"Hi, I'm Succubus-chan! Today we're going to learn how to cook!" the curvaceous figure said. In her head, Akane imagined the voice as being cute and cloying, though not to the point of being annoying. Sort of like how honey was sweet, but not too sweet. You could tell she had a heck of a body on, but from the angle she was standing at you could also plainly see that she was fully attired, wearing a flowery dress with an apron over her waist. No naked apron here. In fact, it was almost like she was posing to make sure you were aware that she wasn't going naked apron.
Even so, you could still tell she had one hell of a body underneath.
And do you know something? That was the same general impression that Akane had throughout the book. She didn't actually try out any of the exercises or anything like that, she was just... looking through it for now. Making sure it was devoid of any erotic content.
In a chapter about making homemade ice cream there was a picture of her on a beach eating a cone in a bikini, But even that wasn’t anything skimpier than what Akane had worn herself. Heck, the school swimsuit in the lunchbox chapter might have been a bit more revealing than that!
"Maybe she really is just a mascot?" Akane mumbled to herself. She turned the last page and blinked slowly. "Oh well... I guess maybe I should try this out tomorrow. It's pretty late now... Gee, how long was I reading that for anyway?"
Cue Akane Tendo falling asleep, using the book as a pillow. She then set about snoring like a pig and drifted off to sleep...
<hr>
"Naughty girl!" a whip cracked next to her ear. Akane jumped to her feet. "Didn't you read what I said? No moving forward until you do the exercise!"
Huh? Huh?! What the - Akane wobbled to her feet feeling really disoriented for whatever reason. She blinked herself awake and - found herself looking up at the surprisingly tall figure of a real life Succubus-chan, wearing the same outfit from that inner page. The apron with the flowery dress under it, and wow those wings were big.
"You have to. Follow. The. Lesson. Plan!" Succubus-chan said, bopping Akane on the nose with her index finger at each period, then flicking her on the forehead at the exclamation mark. "Well, you're a new student so the penalty won't be so harsh this time around."
Huh? Punishment? By now Akane had more of her bearings and she wasn't in her room. Actually, she was standing in a kitchen. A kitchen that looked sort of like - no, exactly the same as the kitchen Succubus-chan had been in at the start of the book.
"Mmm, you really are a cutie," Succubus-chan licked her lips. "I can't wait to see what you look like all geeked out. You'll be so hot, even if you do seem like you'll be a difficult student."
"H-huh?" Akane stammered, unsure of what to say. This whole situation was so weird! "What's going on here?"
"Oh, what's going on?" Succubus-chan shrugged. Then she snapped her fingers... and the walls fell apart, revealing row after row of kitchens and classrooms and other assorted locations. Each of which had a Succubus-chan of their own, as well as a boy or girl in some state of undress. "I'm a succubus with very specific tastes. Like any good chef, I'm catering to my intended diner and cooking up a feast of super hot geek chicks and geek studs."
Now, if anything was going to make Akane snap out of it, then it would have to be something like this. "The hell you will!" Akane leaped forward to strike at the wicked succubus - and then found herself standing at a stove in a naked apron. "Wh-wha...?"
"Punishment time!" Succubus-chan whispered in her ear. Akane whipped around to strike the nuisance, but she was already gone by the time she'd done so. "Now then. What is the name of that boy slash girl you like so much?"
"R-Ranma?" Akane blurted out. "N-No, wait! I don't like him! I love him with every fibre of my - Guh, what am I saying?"
"No lies in dreams," Succubus-chan wagged her finger. "So, what's your most erotic dream that you've ever had about him slash her?"
"Oh, that would be the threesome between me, his boy form and his girl form," Akane said, then immediately slapped her hands over her mouth. "St-stop that!"
“Now now sweetie, this is what you get for being a little bit naughty and trying to read ahead in the curriculum!” Succubus-chan said, kissing Akane on the forehead. “Just remember this for next time!”
Akane gulped. This thing was really strong! She was definitely going to need some help in dealing with this. As soon as she woke up, she was tossing that book in the -
"And as for your punishment for trying to attack me..." Succubus-chan tittered. She snapped her fingers again, and behind Akane... behind her, was a vision of Ranma, reclined on a large bed while Shampoo, Kodachi and Ukyo were all over him. "You get to endure this!"
"N-Nooooo!" Akane cried. She tried to close her eyes - but found that she could not. The image persisted in her vision no matter what she did, or where she looked. Ah! She really did not need to see Shampoo putting her nipple in Ranma's mouth! "Cut that out! It's disgusting!"
"Hrm... well, if you really want it to stop, then you'd better get to baking," Succubus-chan tittered. "If you bake a cake, then the scene stops. If you stop baking, it starts up again. And if you finish, you'll wake up! What a wonderful punishment for a violent girl, don't you agree?"
“W-wasn’t baking a cake a little advanced for the first lesson!”
“Well I’m not going to be grading you on the quality of the cake dear.”
Then she hauled off and spanked Akane right on the butt. To her shame and surprise, it felt... good. Really, really good.
"At least, not yet."
Akane gulped and set to work. Sure enough the image faded from view, but only so long as she was moving. So long as she was following the instructions. It was too painful to look at, the sum of her fears manifesting before her eyes. She was pretty sure she'd had bad dreams about it before, but this time it was too vivid for her to ignore.
She gulped. Follow the instructions. Mix the sugar and the butter. There was exactly enough apparently, so she didn't have to measure it out. Then the eggs and the self raising flour. It was a simple mixture. For each egg, two ounces each of flour sugar and butter. Oof! If only she didn't get the butter everywhere while cooking, and did she have to be naked under this apron? It was massively distracting!
"There!" she cried, then put the cake tin into the oven. "All done! Um... Now I have to wait for thirty minutes... Wait, won't that mean the image resumes?"
"Not at all," Succubus-chan replied, suddenly standing in front of Akane with her hand raised as though she was about to snap her fingers. "It's time for you to endure your real punishment... when you wake up with a screaming orgasm."
Snap.
It hit Akane like a bolt from the blue. The dream she'd mentioned earlier. Involving herself and both of Ranma's forms. She was reclining on a comfortable bed, while the two of them were on either side. They crawled towards Akane with lust in their eyes, and when they were close enough they all but pounced for her.
Boy form Ranma lavished attention on her belly, kissing around Akane's navel while stroking at her hips. Meanwhile the girl form went up to Akane's head and offered her a nipple. Allowing Akane to suck on it...
In exactly the same way that Shampoo had done the same for Ranma in that nightmarish vision from before.
"Ah!" Akane gasped. She could feel it. Building inside her. In the pit of her stomach, a wonderful feeling was building up, waiting for release. "What - what does that mean? Wh-why would ooooh! Why would an image like that c-come back to... Why would it... come... why would it...come back to hurt me like... come. Please, come!"
Akane's eyes snapped open and she almost swallowed her own fist. Whatever it was, it was strong enough to drive her to her knees. It took her a moment to realise where she was: The kitchen. Wearing nothing but an apron. The kitchen was a mess, too. There was flower everywhere, broken egg shells, and a cake in the oven.
There was cake in the oven. And a timer set for half an hour.
"Guh!" Akane grunted. "D-Did I do this?" She looked around, and sitting on a nearby worktop was that dumb book Nabiki had got for her. Open to the page about baking a cake, with Succubus-chan wearing a cute baker's outfit over that scandalously curvy body. "Huh... I guess I must have?" Akane sniffed. "Whoo! Maybe I ought to give this thing a more serious try..."
Weird though. She could have sworn she'd been having a really nice dream just now. Akane shrugged. Never mind. It probably wasn't anything worth thinking about anyway...
