Disclaimer: I do not own Ranma1/2 or Gold Diggers...i wish i did though...


Part 1: Ranma meets the diggers.




Nodoka sighed as she walked down the streets of Tokyo, Japan.
She was depressed, she was banished from her own realm, the Jade Realm.
She was a were-jaquar, she had one child. A defect, her village punished
women heavily for givin birth to defects. They banished the mother and
child to the earth realm to never bother them again. Only nine years
had gone by here and her son was now 10 years old..By the time she had
got to the door of her home, she heard crying coming from inside the living
room, she knew her son had gotten home early, it was only 2:50 p.m. and
school got out at 3:00 p.m. She sighed and walked into her home, and went
directly to the living room. "Whats wrong son?" Nodoka asked, in a gentle
voice.."I got into a fight with a kid 'cause he was callin' me a freak of nature
and I got suspended." Ranma replied between sobs.."I cant help it if im faster
or stronger than everyone else.." Ranma continued before his mother could
reply to his first comment. "So thats what this is about.." Nodoka said herself.
then she took Ranma into a gentle hug..."why am I like this mommy?" Ranma
asked lookin' up at his mother, eyes watering. Nodoka watches her son for a
moment and gets up, to close the windows and shades and she sits Ranma
on her lap and she tells him everything, where he is from, why he's here.
and what he is in general..a werejaguar.


1 year later..

Ranma smiles as he dusts his hands, he had taken up the martial arts
to learn dicipline..he made sure to ingrain it into his mind..that martial artists
were supposed to protect the weak, not hurt them.

In the bushes a fat bald man wearing a bandana was watching Ranma
practice "He's perfect, now to get him away from that bitch of a mother of his."
Genma said to himself.

The Next day...

Nodoka was inside cleaning the living room when she hears a windows
break and something smashes her in the back of the head, and she falls over
forward knocked out. Ranma comes running in to see his mother knocked out
on the floor with a break not even 5ft. away from her, Ranma looks around, but
does not see the other brick going striaght for his head as well, and he too falls
over across his mom knocked out.. Genma breaks the rest of the window so he
can get in and picks up Ranma, and walks out the front door with Ranma slung
over his shoulder, "now to get the boy to that psychic and erase his memories"
Genma said, walking to the juuban district.

Two months later...

"Damn it old man let me go! if you want this technique do it yourself!"
Ranma yelled at Genma, "Get in there and learn the neko-ken NOW!" Genma said
backhanding Ranma into the pit and slamming the cover over it...After about 20 times
and Ranma did not learn the Neko-ken, Genma finally gave up and was muttering about
useless boys not doin what there elders tellin' them too. Ranma had sighed in releif when
that had happened. "Get up boy, were going to america." Genma said glaring at his 'son'
"why pop?" Ranma replied glaring back. "Because I said so idiot boy!" Genma yelled,
Ranma punched him in the gut following up with a kick which Genma blocked. They were
fighting along the edge of the pit of cats, Genma had some sausages, Ranma sweep kicked
him and Genma grabbed ahold of Ranma dragging him in with him.

In the pit..

The cats were eyeing the sausages that were currently around Genma's neck
greedily...

Outside the pit.. we hear a old mans cry of pain and pure terror.

The rest of the year went by rather slowly, going through insane training, constant beating
and hardly any sleep. Then finally they got to America by stowing away on a plane to Atalanta,
Georgia.

In the Suburb Decatur, Theo opened his eyes, he had felt a aura of pure greed enter Atlanta.
He got up and looked at his 10 year old daughters "its all right girls I was just startled." he said smiling
at the two. "I'll be right back girls" he said and then his aura flared around him and he vanished.

Theo reappeared about 6ft. from Genma and Ranma, who was tellin Ranma what they were to do,
"There are alot of rich rich people in this part of the city Ranma, we are going to..take some of there wealth
to help us.." Genma said to his son.."thats wrong though" Ranma said, "I dont care!" Genma yelled.
"The kid has a good head on him.." Theo muttered. He started to chant a teleportation spell and pointed to
Genma, and Genma vanished..Theo smiled and looked at Ranma. Ranma looks around and jumps up
"YES!!" Ranma yelled, "Happy to be away from him?" Theo asked walking up to Ranma, "Yes!" Ranma
replied happily. Theo smiles and checks Ranma's aura..'Not human..hmmm' Theo thought as he looked
Ranma over, he decided to go deeper...definitly not human...his aura is moving a pace that is much faster
than a humans should, ..intuned with the earth..the Etheral Stream flows with his aura..a were-creature..
obviously. A defect, the only logical reason why hes built like he is at his age..his intentions..are pure..


"Where are you from Ranma?" Theo asked, in a gentle tone.
"I'm not sure..I cant remember.." Ranma replied looking down
at his feet, a tear rolls down his cheek..
Theo looks at Ranma, sizing him up, double checking his aura, checking his intentions again..
he sighs and puts a arm around the crying child. "If you can get along with my daughters..you can stay
at my house for a time." Theo said.

To be continued...
