"You want me to do what?" the once evil knight cringed.
The red-orage Cat shifted on his pedestal. "You know exactly what I want you to do, Nightmare."
The knight waved his claw-arm. "But, surely there is someone, ANYONE better than I?"
"No, Sigfried Schtauffen, there is none better. Now then, I would advise you to claim to be after Gema's soul when you arrive. Get him to sign a written contract surrendering his son's body and soul to you in exchange for his own. That way when he tries to take Ranma back, you can be waiting with a veritable army of Police." The Cat seemed happy for some odd reason.
"Hmmm, I still believe there is someone better than I, but I will go along with this, for now, seeing as he would torture the boy if no-one interferes." Nightmare stood then, and made for the nearest portal gate. "One question before I leave. Why are you so willing to help this child, that you would spend horrendus amounts of energy to purge me of the Evil of Soul Edge?"
The Cat sighed. "Because I am an other-worldly being, who has seen that the child Ranma, needs a far better father than Genma. He would ruin the boy's life. You, having once been Evil, regardless of why, and knowing the difference between Right and Wrong/Good and Evil, should be the best Moral teacher the boy could possibly hope for."
Sigfried nodded at the sincerity in those words, and finally departed through the portal gate.
"Well Robert-san, did I do well?" the Cat spoke to a humanoid figure emerging from the shadows.
"Yes Alexander, you did very well. I would have asked Toltir to do this, but I believe he would have altered it a bit too much to fit his tastes." the Neko-hanyou that emerged from the shadows seemed a polite, if blunt person.
"Well he is supposedly the Elder God of Mischief." the Cat jumped off his pedestal and into Robert's waiting arms.
"True, true. Now then, I need to attend to this next part personally. I've allways hated Sailor Uranus for her bull-headed stupidity. I don't mind that she's a dyke, but it's her stupidity that's gonna get all the Sailor Senshi killed. Time to manipulate her life just a bit. No Alexander, I'm not going to hurt her unless she does something monumentally stupid."
"Like attacking you on site?"
"Very."

Authors notes: Yes, I borrowed some ideas from several of "The Bet" inspired stories I've read, and I've blatantly stolen others for my own use. I will acknowledge the original creator whenever I can though.

Nightmare is property of Namco, and is used without permission and not for profit. I merely find it amusing to have him in the place of Ranma's father.
I honestly have no Fucking idea who invented the "better father than Genma" type fic, but it sure as hell wasn't me.
