The Second School Store
During another busy lunchtime rush on the Furinkan High store, Ranma looks on as the other students fight for the best food. As he comments on how everyday's the same thing, Ranma notices that hidden behind a flyer there's an old sign to the second school store. After following the direction pointed out on the sign, Ranma finds himself in a rather poorly maintained and seemingly abandoned part of the school. As he continues his walk down the abandoned corridor, Ranma trips over a no entry sign, but continues onwards regardless.

A little further down and Ranma notices a sign for the second school store, but when he enter, Ranma is greatly disappointed by the store's run down and dusty appearance. Believing the place to be deserted, Ranma begins his way back when suddenly the door behind the store slides open and an old man appears, asking Ranma what he wants. Nervous, Ranma explains he just wanted something to eat, prompting the old man to point out the piles of dusty buns in the corner. However as Ranma picks the bun and comments it might've been one at one time, the bun suddenly disintegrates in his hand.

Terrified of the old man, Ranma runs out of the store and back up to the other students. As Ranma runs off, the Principal catches him running away from the second store and comments on how Ranma shouldn't stick his nose is things which don't concern him...

News of the second store soon circulates throughout the student body, but everyone who purchases something from their is disappointed with their purchase. After hearing about everyone's complaints, Akane tells the students to just go back and get a refund, but Nabiki warns her younger sister that the second store's owner is known as the Master of Furinkan and adds that whoever goes near him or the store will be cursed. Nabiki then proceeds to tell the other students that its crazy for them to demand a refund and for their own good they should forget it.

Just then Kuno arrives and declares to his fellow pupils that he'll vengeance for them, but shortly after running down the darkened corridor to the store, Kuno rushes back with multiple arrows lodged in his clothing. Seeing this the other students are convinced of the curse, but Akane still has her doubts and decides to ignore her sister's warnings and goes towards the store.

When Ranma finally catches up with Akane, he's shocked to see her happily giving the old man who runs the store a back rub. Still doubtful, Ranma questions about the rumours of the store being cursed, to which the old man reveals stem from Principal Kuno's want to close the store down.
