AN - This is a Ranma 1/2 - Cowboy bebop crossover, I do NOT own any of the characters in this story, and I'm not making any money off this either, so don't sue me! In this fic, I took the Ranma timeline, and simply moved it forward to Faye's time, however all of the Ranma series, except for the failed wedding. In the Bebop world, This takes place during the episode that Faye is looking for her past.

He looked outside the porthole, just as the captain announced what was happening, the world went dark.

He awoke slowly, hearing muffled voices as his eyes started to focus, he saw a middle aged black man wearing a white overcoat and a metal disk sitting on a headband standing over him, talking to a woman who was obviously a nurse, though he couldn't remember how he knew that.
He tried to think about the last thing he remembered.... and came up blank, he couldn't remember anything! Just as he was starting to panic, he felt a wave of nausea run over him as he rolled to the side and emptied his stomach onto the floor.
"Oh dear, we're going to have to clean that up later..." The doctor mused.
"W-Where am I? Who am I?" The man asked the doctor.
"Hmmm? You're in my hospital of course.... As for who you are, I'm afraid you're going to have to find that out for yourself." The doctor said.
"Oh...."The young man replied.
He fell back to sleep and didn't wake till two days later.

When the young man awoke, it was to an unfamiliar room, but for some reason it didn't unsettle him as he looked about the barren gray room, a small potted plant was to his left on a little end table, along with some odd looking objects that he assumed were for the use of the staff.
"Ahh,you're awake, good." The young man looked up at the woman wearing a very revealing yellow top and pants, covered with a red jacket. She approached him from the doorway.
"Uhm, who are you? Do I know you?" He asked her with a small amount of hope in his voice.
"Actually, thats why I'm here, my name is Faye Valentine, I was wondering if perhaps you knew me..." Faye responded, frowning slightly.
"I-I can't remember anything.... I know that that's a toothbrush.... but I don't know HOW I know...." The boy puzzled, pointing at a small cylindrical object, with a rounded tip.
"Hmm, actually, that's takes your temperature." Faye said.
"What??" the man asked.
"Do you even remember your name?" Faye asked.
He thought good and hard for a minute about it, he could remember it had something to do with "wild" but couldn't remember the rest, all of his memories were all blurry.
"No, I can't.." He frowned.
"It says here you're name is Ranma Saotome." She said, reading from Ranma's medical chart.
"Ranma?" It sounded vaguely familiar to him.
"So, Ranma, you feel like going down to the cafeteria and getting something to eat?" Faye asked him.
"I-I think so" Ranma blushed as his stomach gave a loud growl in agreement.
******
"If you don't mind me asking, why did you come see me if you don't know who I am?" Ranma asked as he shoveled food into his mouth.
"Huh?" Faye responded, having been to shocked by the boy's.... no... man's eating habits to listen to his question.
"I said, why did you come visit me if you don't even know who I am?" He repeated.
"Oh, well you see, I was frozen just as you were after the accident, and I don't remember much of my past. I found the listing for who all was on the ship with me, and of the survivors, you're the only one I could track down." She shrugged.
"Oh..." He replied.
Now that Faye looked, even in the green scrubs the hospital had given to him, he looked very fit, and muscular, but it was in more of an athletic build, rather than a body-builder's. Even though he didn't remember anything, he seemed to move with an uncanny grace, as if everything he did was poetry. How he seemed to spend the very least amount of effort needed in order to do anything. He reminded her of Spike, in an odd way.
It was then she noticed he had obviously said something, the way he was looking at her, waiting for her reply.
"Huh?" she said intelligently
He sighed. "I said, what do you mean by 'frozen' and what accident are you talking about?"
"Ohhh" She took a swig of water to hide her blush of embarrassment.
"Well, it would seem that the ship we were on exploded, and only a few survivors were found. All of us were put into hibernation until we could be healed properly." Faye told him.
Ranma mulled over it for a while.
"Ok, so lemme get this straight." He said, "The spaceship you and I were on exploded." She nodded, "And us survivors were frozen" Again she nodded. "Creepy." He shivered.
"It's not as bad as you think." She told him.
She seemed to think about something for a few seconds.
"I'll let you stay on my ship for a while, in case any of you're memories return and you can tell me what you know, it might help me remember my own past." she said, putting her finger to her cheek and raising her eyes in thought.
"Uhm... Ok, thanks." Ranma grinned sheepishly.
"Anytime." Faye winked.

Next time: Ranma meets Spike, and Jet blows his top!
See you cowboy.....
