I do not own Ranma 1/2. Rumiko-chan owns it.
In an alternate universe, Dark Ranma was sitting on a throne with girls clinging to his legs. "Ranma-sama... You promised you'd do me!" one of the girls protested.
"In a minute, I'm busy." Dark Ranma was wearing a cape and a crown, holding an orb. "I am busy searching for my new heir."
"What about us?" Another girl pouted. "You're always busy and have no time for us!"
Ranma stood up and shook the girls off of him. "YOU'RE NOTHING BUT BITCHES AND WHORES! AWAY WITH YOU!" he roared angrily as he held a hand out.
With that, the girls were covered in flames and became ashes. "I need only the perfect heir that is capable of receiving my powers. But who? WHO?"
Suddenly, a flash from the crystal globe in the middle of the room revealed an image of another Ranma, the original Ranma. "Yes... He will do..." The dark clone of Ranma smiled evilly.
"MWAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Meanwhile...
Ranma was sent flying again after another misunderstanding. "Damn tomboy," He growled in anger as he was descending towards a fountain. "Why does she always have to assume the worst of me?" he griped as he landed in the fountain and turned into a girl.
"Because she is nothing more than an idiot." a voice boomed inside his head.
Ranma jumped up in fright. "Who are you?" she yelped.
"I am you, you can call me your dark half, if you'd like." The voice chuckled.
Ranma-chan shivered in fear. "Ok, if you're telling the truth, why are you talking to me?"
"I seek someone to take my knowledge and power. You are the best candidate."
"But why me?"
"You have the requirements needed to meet my expectations."
Ranma-chan blinked as she felt a dark aura surrounding her. "What the heck is this?!" She panicked.
"Calm yourself, child. It's just my power flowing through you. I'm giving you my abilities and strengths."
Ranma sighed as she felt her body and mind change significantly. "This power… I can finally feel my intelligence rising!" Ranma-chan let out an evil laugh in the distance.
Meanwhile, at the Tendou Dojo…
Akane was fuming at her desk as she thought about Ranma. "That idiot! How dare he insult me! I hate him!" Her thoughts were interrupted when a loud bang came from downstairs.
"QUAKE WITH FEAR, YOU MORTAL FOOLS!" Ranma roared as Akane ran down the stairs to see Ranma cloaked in a black aura. "I have come to give dark tidings to you all."
"What are you talking about, boy-" Genma was cut off by Ranma hurling him into the Koi pond.
"Silence, scum!" Ranma snarled as he brushed his hands off. "As I was saying, I will no longer carry out this insane farce of an engagement."
Nabiki looked at him with an eyebrow raised. Kasumi looked worried. "Ranma, please tell me what this is about?" Soun asked. "You can't possibly think of breaking my little girl's heart! I WON'T ALLOW IT!" He went into his Demon-Head mode.
Ranma just shot him a death-glare as he spoke in a cold tone. "Listen well, old man. I have no intention of marrying someone who beats me constantly on a daily basis. I will not enter a loveless marriage with that bitch."
Akane made herself known as she shouted. "Well, I don't want to marry you either, YOU PERVERT!" She brandished her mallet, ready to hit him.
Ranma shook his head as he stepped to the side, seeing Akane mallet Kasumi instead. Kasumi was sent flying across the room and onto the lawn.
"Oh my god," Akane's eyes widened in horror at what she had done. Nabiki's neutral expression broke upon seeing the injured and unconscious Kasumi. "I didn't mean to hit her, I swear!"
"Akane, what have you done?!" Soun screamed at his youngest daughter in horror and shock. "You attacked your own sister! HOW COULD YOU?!"
"I'm so sorry!" Akane sobbed.
"Sorry? SORRY?" Nabiki shouted uncharacteristically. "You attacked Kasumi! KASUMI, of all people! She didn't do anything to you! I can't believe you! This time, you've really gone too far, Akane!"
While the shouting match was going on, Ranma scooped Kasumi up in his arms and left the dojo.
"It was an accident! I was only trying to hit that jerk!" Akane protested.
SLAP!
Nabiki's hand clenched in anger as she glared at her sister. Akane held her throbbing cheek in pain. "I've tolerated the dojo and the house being wrecked from your fights with Ranma and his friends. Hell, I was fine with him being rude and thoughtless towards you, not to mention his escapades with his fiancées." Nabiki's eyes turned cold as she leveled her gaze at her little sister.
"But hurting Kasumi, is where I draw the fucking line." Akane's eyes were filled with tears as Soun glared at her.
"Indeed. I should've paid more attention to you when you were younger. I wish I could go back and make my mistakes." He sighed deeply. "But now, I fear I have to agree with Ranma. As of right now, the Tendou-Saotome engagement is over."
Genma-panda widened his eyes and fainted.
"Daddy…" Akane choked on her tears.
"Save your breath, Akane." Nabiki hissed. "You knew what would happen if you hadn't learned how to control your temper."
"And furthermore," Soun added his own two cents. "You are forbidden to practice the Tendou School of Anything Goes. You are banned from using martial arts for life."
"Daddy, no!" Akane cried. "You can't!"
This time, Soun used the Demon-Head technique on Akane. "DO NOT TELL ME WHAT I CAN OR CANNOT DO, YOUNG LADY!" Soun roared, scaring the shit out of his little girl.
Nabiki turned to her father. "So, what now, Daddy?"
"Akane, I can't even look at you. Go to your room and stay there. You are grounded for three months." Soun turned around, his back facing his daughter.
"Daddy… please…" Akane begged.
"You heard what he said, Akane. Get out of here. NOW!" Nabiki shouted, giving her sister her most fearsome death-glare. Akane ran up to her room, crying.
The two Tendous sat at the table, thinking about their past actions, not knowing that Ranma had carried Kasumi off.
Ranma landed near a warehouse and set Kasumi down. He then began to heal her with his powers. "Please let this work," He prayed.
Suddenly, Kasumi opened her eyes and smiled. "Hello, Ranma-kun." She said in a sultry voice. "Kasumi! Thank the gods!" He hugged her as she returned his embrace.
"Ranma-kun," Kasumi leaned her head against his chest. "I feel so strange…" She drew lazy circles on his chest.
"Uh, yeah. I guess having dark powers will do that to you." Ranma chuckled, scratching at the back of his head.
"Now, boy, we must find you a castle to rule over your domain. And find some women for your harem." Dark Ranma reminded him.
"The second part's easy, but where am I gonna find a castle?" Ranma asked. Then it hit him. The castle in Osaka.
"Oh, yeah." Ranma grinned. "Don't worry, voice. I'm gonna grant your wish!" Ranma let loose another evil laugh as Kasumi sweatdropped.
TBC…
