Dealing with Arrangements
Disclaimers: I don't own InuYasha or Ranma or any of those freaky and crazy characters from their shows. it'd be cool to be part of their shows though.
AN: Guess whose Ranma's newest fiancée. and no, it's not InuYasha. Kagome's mom had made a deal, long ago with Ranma's mother: a deal similar to that of Ranma and Akane's fathers. Nevertheless, why is this engagement any different from the others? Now how will these two get out of this sticky mess.or will they actually fall for each other? More importantly, how will InuYasha and Akane react to this? And, does anyone get the sneaky suspicion that the two boys don't like each other?
I've always wanted to try out a crossover fic. specifically a Ranma and InuYasha one.so here goes.
Chapter 1
Not another one!
Kagome sighed. You know, right about now, she was becoming greatful for InuYasha's impatience.
Like those times when he would get so sick of waiting for her to come back, that he would go drag her back by force if necessary.
Yeah, she was really missing that right now. Right now, as she was stuck with an unreasonable amount of homework. She so wished that the little needy puppy would come in and beg her to return with him and collect the jewel shards.
Okay, so InuYasha couldn't really be considered needy and he really wasn't very little when compared to herself and he would probably never do anything like begging.
If he were to come to bring her back, he would most likely stomp in on her in an embarrassing moment and demand that she return with him because she was taking 'too goddam long for no reason' back at home.
She snorted. Stupid little brat was needy. Couldn't leave her be in peace for one second.
All he ever does is tease her or ignore her. unless she happened to be near death at the moment.
Yep, just a needy child begging for someone's attention.
She looked out her window, as the sky faded into a darker shade.
It really would be nice if he came right now though.
At that very moment, she saw a shadow moving along the tree outside her window. no wait. two shadows!
Did InuYasha happen to bring a guest?
No, wait. that wasn't InuYasha! The figure was too feminine!
Two women dressed in black hopped in Kagome's window.
Two scary looking women, who could have been spies for the government or something, complete with the ski masks and gloves.
The first one slightly taller than the second, moved over to stand directly in front of Kagome.
"Yes, she definitely has turned out to be quite a beautiful young woman. she's perfect for him," the taller one said seriously.
"And from the pictures of your son, they'll have gorgeous children. I just can't wait!" said the one still standing near the window.
That voice was oddly too familiar. but who could it be?
"Indeed," said the taller female and suddenly to Kagome, all went black.
The woman in front of her gently pressed a point in the young miko's neck.and before she knew it, she was out like a light.
"Yes. perfectly beautiful grandchildren," the woman said, while the other giggled behind her.
~**~**~**~**~**~
Kagome woke up in rush.
That's right there were these women, and then. I forgot?
Kagome took in her surroundings. She was laying on the grass in someone's yard. and she was tied up?
How could I forget what happened?
"Ranma!"
Huh. someone's coming?
"Uh-uh, no way Akane!!"
That kind of sounds like InuYasha.
"But Ranma--"
"Akane, I said no and no means-Hello," said Ranma as he entered the yard of the Tendo Dojo to see a young girl tied up, with a cloth stuck in her mouth and a note tied to her.
"Wha-oh," Akane said as she arrived behind Ranma.
The three just stared at each other for a couple of seconds.
"Mph MPH mph?" said Kagome as she tried to form a sentence through the material.
Ranma walked up to the girl to crouch in front of her and remove the rag from her lips.
"Wanna try that again, please?" he asked sarcastically.
"I said, who ARE you?" repeated the girl, now fully comprehendible.
"No, I think the question is 'who are you?' Since you are in our garden," answered the boy.
"HELLO! Do you not see the situation I'm in? Doesn't the fact of me being tied up in the middle of your yard prove something! I didn't exactly decide to go for a stroll while tied up!" yelled the girl, now in a fluster.
The boy seemed to consider what she said, and then he shrugged and strolled off into the house.
Kagome looked stupefied.
Akane just turned around, running into the house, looking for her father or Genma.
So, Kagome sat in the grass all by her lonesome for a couple of minutes, until a man came out. The man looked at Kagome, inspecting her. He didn't overlook a single thing.
Kagome huffed at his rudeness.
The man than began to observe the letter attached to her ropes but he abruptly noticed something and set it down quickly.
"Genma. this letter is addressed to you and Ranma!" he yelled.
Then again, the boy with the braided pigtail came out followed by a panda.
She decided the panda must have been Genma since the other had previously been called something else.
The boy handed the panda the letter after the panda poured hot water on himself and returned to human form.
Kagome's eyes bugged. She'd seen plenty of weird things, but only in the past. Things like this didn't ever really happen in her time.
The two standing in front of her seemed to pay her staring no mind.
After a moment, the used-to-be panda stopped reading with a gasp.
He walked up to the girl and peered at her closely.
Ranma looked concerned, he didn't know what his father had just learned.
"Your. little Kagome-chan?" the man asked.
Kagome nodded meekly watching the man suspiciously.
"Do I know you?" she asked still cautious.
"Oh my, you've turned out to be quite a catch!" said the man called Genma while in thought.
The boy she knew as Ranma from the other girl, Akane calling his name, seemed to deepen his frown.
Then, the man turned to Ranma.
"Looks, like you've got yourself another fiancée, boy," the man with glasses stated.
"WHAT!!!" both teens yelled simultaneously.
Promptly, Kagome passed out.
And Ranma began to rant.
~**~**~**~**~**~**~
Again, Kagome woke up. but this time things were foggier.
She realized she was sinking into some unknown warmth and right at the moment, she didn't wish to move. It was all much too comfortable.
Then the warm thing she was hugging onto moved.
She stiffened as a voice spoke.
"You might not want to get too comfy," the male voice said.
"InuYasha?" asked Kagome.
She looked up at the boy in her arms, only to realize he didn't have golden eyes.
"InuYasha?" the boy repeated, with amusement in his eyes.
Kagome rolled out of the bed with a yelp.
The boy started chuckling softly.
"Why was I. I mean, why were we." she asked nervously.
The boy laughed a little more, "Because there were no more available beds and my father thought it was suitable considering you're my future wife".
Kagome looked pale.
"What are you saying? Someone kidnapped me and is forcing me to marry you, no offense, but I hardly know you," Kagome spoke.
The boy cocked his head inquisitively and then just turned his face.
"Your mother and my mother have made an arrangement," he spoke softly.
"What? Oh. I remember, the two women who kidnapped me in disguise," Kagome thought aloud.
"Yeah, I suppose. my mom had decided way before I met Akane that I would marry you. if you grew up suitably. and by the looks of it," he pointedly took in all of her appearance, "you certainly must have impressed her".
"What?" Kagome shook her head in confusion, "Wait, who's Akane?"
"My former fiancée. well actually I guess I've got way more than just one future wife, but, Akane was the only serious one. and I suppose, you've just taken her place," he said with a shrug, his face somewhat stoic, but his eyes told a different story.
"Um. I know this seems weird. well because I've just woken up in your bed after being kidnapped and all of a sudden I'm asking you questions but, why have I suddenly taken a more important role than her?" the girl with long raven hair asked.
"Because. a long time ago my mother and father were debating on letting me leave to go training. or more like they were right out fighting and she was succeeding in stopping him, but my mom made two agreements with my father. One was if I didn't come out to be an honorable man, I would commit seppuku and the other was, I would marry the woman of her choice," Ranma explained.
Kagome nodded for him to continue.
"My father chose Akane. so someone would uphold his martial arts style and name. My mother chose you," he stopped to look up at the girl his mom chose, "at this point my dad forgot he didn't really have control of that choice in my future. now he sees it, but it's too late".
Ranma hung his head in silence.
"Too late for what?" she asked so quietly she could hardly hear herself.
"Too late to stop me from beginning to love Akane", he said in a whisper.
Kagome was hit heavy in the heart and rushed immediately to his side to envelope him in a warm embrace.
She really didn't understand her own actions, but her heart and body seemed to have their own logic.
Ranma stood shocked as Kagome began to sob softly on his shoulder.
"Why are you crying?" he asked softly.
"Because you remind me too much of myself," she sniffled.
"What? How do you mean?" Ranma asked.
"I don't really understand it myself," she answered still clinging to the boy who was to be her husband.
Abruptly, she began giggling.
He soon followed her example, until they sat quietly in each other's arms laughing at nothing but how odd and bitter life could be.
"I hope I'm not interrupting something", said a sarcastic voice coming from the frame perched on the window.
Kagome gasped.
"InuYasha"
Oh please, oh please review!! This is my second fic ever! I so hope you enjoyed the beginning!
Don'tcha jus' luv my exclamation markz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anywayz about the story.
And yes, I know it's "oh-so cliché!" (Even the 'cliffhanger' is cliché) but I felt like trying to make this one a little different from the normal ones.not that you could tell from the first chapter.but. just review. you'll make me feel better and brighten up my little dark and gloomy world.
