Behind These Eyes

Prologue

Metora


By: Kazuma20


It's weird how life has many endless paths for you to fallow many possible futures; different outcomes, endless possibilities. In Ranma's life he had only one path and that was to become the greatest martial artist. His curse still causes him problems. But let's get to where he's at the moment on the border line that separated England and Scotland or was it Ireland. 'Man I feel like Ryoga. Anyway let me tell you how I got to were I'm at.'

It all started after the Yama-Sen Ken and the Umi-Sen Ken indecent. It was the night after when I went to sleep I was haunted by this weird dream with a girl in it, but I can't really put into words. But I remember one distanced characteristic of the girl that haunts my dreams that day and even now. She had the most beautiful golden locks that flowed freely down her back ant the most beautiful blue eyes I have ever seen. She was gorgeous or would a goddess be a better term for her. I don't know.

After the incident with Ryu Kumon what he said as he left that I should tell my mother who I am soon. So I did a week later after I beat pop to a bloody mess. I went visit she was surprise to see me after all this time. I told her everything that happen during my training trip. Which to my surprise she accepted it. When she found out how many times pops sold me, she was pissed like she was ready to kill him. She then told me that the Seppuku Contract it was a way to keep the old man in line and from doing something stupid.

I also told her that I really didn't love any of my fiancee's and if his father try forced him again he would give up his last name and become a ronin. She then told me that she wouldn't want that to happen to her only son. She told me that she would remove my name from the Saotome family roaster and put it on her fathers' family roaster.

That's when she reviled to me that her maiden name was Amada. At first I tried to place the name it was only till later when I was reading a business magazine about the death of Business Tycoon named Sasuke Amada who was survived by his only daughter Nodoka Saotome. He was a multi-billionaire and was very powerful in the business world.

With my learning curve I'm a genius at anything I can set my mind to. I realized that the only reason Genma married mother was because she came from a rich family. I some inherent hidden in the bank the only way to access it was either I reach twenty-one or I get married with ever came first. That was why he wants me married quickly. Mom also told me that according to my Grandfather's Will I was left everything to me when I also turned twenty-one.

So back to the present the girl or should I use woman because she looked more like a woman. Still haunting my dreams she was soon joined by two other, but I couldn't see their faces or hair color. And the reason why I'm heading to England I don't know, but something complied me to come here like someone is here that I must protect. I can't explain it or how I know this I just do. It's weird to me also I never been to this land, but it looks familiar to me.


Ranma walked down a street in London five days after he passed the boarders of England and Scotland. Hanging on a light post was a flier for a band that needed a singer he pulled it off and fallowed the direction on it to his destination.

The band consists of four members and all they needed was a singer to play in a club also a name. That's when they saw a guy around there age enter his long black hair tied in a pigtail and a backpack too big for him in Chinese cloths.

"I saw the flyer that said you were looking for a singer?" asked Ranma.

"Yeah, you are the first and only person to come for the position." said Alexander. "Let me introduce you to the band Tristan Stabler," pointed to the teenager behind the drums.

"Gawain Carmichael" pointed to the one playing a six-string guitar.

"Galahad Bower" pointed to the man siting by some keyboards.

"And I'm Alexander Armstrong and I play a bass guitar. And your name?"

"Oh Ranma Amada. And what's the name of the band?" he asked.

"We haven't thought of that yet." replied Gawain who sat on a stool and was plucking some strings.

"How about A.D.M..?" asked Ranma.

"Actually that sound like a good name." replied Alexander.

Ranma looked them all over again starting with the one that introduced everybody Alexander who was tall standing at 6'2" broad shoulders. His skin was dark sorta like a tan. He wore small square lensed glasses, black long hair that went passed his shoulders straight and parched in the middle with ice blue eyes. And his face you could tell he was of Asian descent by one of his parents.

Then he turned to Galahad he was shorter and stood 5'10" he had a small frame his skin was the lighter of the four he had long white hair. His eyes were a garnet color. After that was Tristan who stood 6'0" and was lean like a swimmer and had dirty blonde hair that was cut short. He also had blue eyes. And finally looked at Gawain who was the tallest standing 6'4". He had muscles, but most that of a runner. He had brown hair with green eyes.

Ranma dropped his backpack and sat on the top it. They started talking with each other so Ranma could get to know his band mates. Also, about what lead them all here together to form a group.

Ranma learned that Alexander father was a Major in the United States Marine Corps that fought in Vietnam and was about to retire. And that his mother was Japanese that they meet while his father was on leave in Tokyo.

That Tristan's father was an Inspector at Scotland Yard and that his mother was a housewife that worked part time as a nurse at the local hospital.

Gawain's father to was a cop that was partnered with Tristan's father since they both exited the Academy. Gawain and Tristan both grow up together. His mother owned a bakery around the corner from where they lived.

Galahad's father was a businessman who was V.P. of the company he worked for. His mother was a doctor at a nearby hospital. Because of his parents busy schedule he rarely saw them. He been hanging around Gawain and Tristan since Junior High and when Alexander joined them last year.

Ranma said that he would stay in the factory when they all pack up their things. Alexander put on a black trench coat and picked up his guitar case. Gawain picked up his own guitar case. Galahad had also picked up his keyboard and th soft case was strapped to his back. Tristan had pushed his drums to the side. They told Ranma later and left.

Ranma picked up his backpack and went find a place to set up his bedding in the old factory building where he was at and band practice. He soon found an abandon office and set up his bedding. He decided to look around found a shower with hot running water and a restroom he also found that the building still had power. He sat at the desk that was in the office where he set up his bedding back pack next to him.

He pulled a leather bound notebook from his backpack then pulled an ink pen out of a side pouch and continued writing lyrics on the page. A song he had on his mind.


The other guys were walking together and talking. Gawain made a comment' "It's good we have a lead singer. I was getting tired of listing to Alexander sing. Am I right guys?"

"Yes." said Tristan with his left hand across his chest as he holds his right elbow with his hand on his chin.

"Got that right." replied Galahad who nodded his head.

"My singing wasn't that bad." Alexander shot back.

"Yes but still it's good to have a full time singer."

They shared in a good Hardy laugh. Gawain slapped Alexander on the back. Alexander just sighed at this. The reached a cross road leading to three different streets. They said their good-byes. Tristan and Gawain went west, Galahad went north, and Alexander went east to the outskirts of the city.
