Disclaimer: if you wanna know see the prologue
What happened in last part: Ranma had killed Saffron the phoenix god, and doing so awakened a power that has been hidden in him since he was born. Meanwhile in Nerima Nodoka and Ukyo had begun to set the path that will lead Ranma to happiness, or so they think.

Ranma the Devil Hunter Chapter 1: an unplanned meeting
/Nerima ward, Tendo Dojo/
It was a couple of weeks after the failed wedding attempt that resulted in total chaos, with Ukyo, Xian Pu and Kodachi trying to attack Akane, while Genma, Ryoga, Kuno and Mu Tsu were either fighting for the water from the spring of drowned man or trying to kill Ranma.
Currently Ranma was sitting alone in the Tendo Dojo trying to calm himself down by going into a meditation stance and focusing.
Ranma: 'Goddamn it why do things like this always happen to me? First off the Wrecking crew come in and disrupt the wedding, the girls start to gang up on Akane, well I can understand Xian Pu and Kodachi attacking, but U-chan!! While that's going on the idiots who cant get a girlfriend without trying to kill me start attacking me, and then to top it all off the old freak drinks the water from the spring of drowned man'
While deep in his thoughts Nodoka opens the Dojo door and steps through, she walks towards Ranma and sits down beside him.
Nodoka: "something troubling you Ranma?"
Startled that she didn't sense her own mother Ranma hesitantly answered
Ranma: "yeah I just don't understand why fate is cruel to me sometimes, I mean it's as if someone wants bad things to happen to me, for instance the numerous fiancées, the rivals the Jusenkyo curse it's like all of these things have been planned ahead of me, just a little while after the failed wedding Akane has started to act more violent than she usually does, a few hours ago she malleted me into the Koi pond because I didn't say hi to her when I walked by."
Nodoka had also realised that Akane had started to act more violent recently, she thanked the kami's that she made the pledge before her husband did otherwise Ranma would be in for an early death.
Nodoka: "Well my son what would you say that I can solve two of your problems in one hour?"
Ranma stared at his mother with eyes which both said, "If you can you are a kami" and "you've gotta be kidding me"
Ranma-chan: "that would be great, but in all seriousness just how can you possibly do two of the three bad things about my life in one hour?"
Nodoka: "well for starters I can get rid of your fiancée problem."
Nodoka didn't get any further as Ranma suddenly took up an attacking position aimed at her
Ranma-chan: "ALRIGHT JUST WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DON'T TO MY MOM?"
Surprise lead to disbelief, which turned to anger, when Ranma saw the anger in her mother's eyes he knew he made a very big mistake
Nodoka: "HOW DARE YOU TALK THAT TONE TO ME YOUNG MAN, calming down a little) and further more what makes you think I'm not your mother?"
Ranma-chan: "well my mother would NOT get rid of the engagements because she would want me to get married to Akane cuz she'll side with Oyaji saying that family homor should be followed"
*SLAP!!*
Clutching the side of his face Ranma was shocked that his mother had slapped him
Nodoka: "Is that how you see me Ranma? Do you see me as a person who would follow that idiots plan to try and get you to lose your true power by marrying you off so early?
Ranma: "True power? Mom what are you talking about?"
Nodoka: "I mean the power that manifests itself when you hit your 18th birthday, even though that I'm surprised that it came forth a bit early, it is time that you learn of your heritage"
Ranma: "and this heritage of mine is the answer to two of my problems?"
Nodoka replied by nodding
Ranma: "well how does it help me?"
Nodoka doesn't answer as she stands up and beckons Ranma to do the same, when Ranma stood up Nodoka put something in Ranma's Hand in which he took a look at, it was a pendant of some sort shaped into a gold Dragon/demons head, Ranma quickly put the pendant on and looked at his mother who made a notion for Ranma to follow her
Nodoka: "if you want answers to be revealed then follow me"
Ranma thought about it for a second, he thought about what would happen when he found out whatever his mother was going to tell him, would it be good news or will it be bad news.
Nodoka: "if this will help your decision, when we get to our destination then I will tell you why Saffron died by that power you used on that day"
This caught Ranma's interest as he walked towards his mother and accepted her offer
Ranma: " okay mother I accept, so where are we going, and what is this pendant for?"
Just as Nodoka was about to apply the Dojo doors slid open and none other than Akane dressed in her Martial Arts gi walked towards Ranma, with mallet in hand and proceeded to send him into LEO (1) while muttering
Akane: "Ranma no baka, can't he see that I'm trying to use the dojo and he's there like he's owning the place (2)
Frowning at the way the youngest Tendo Daughter had treated her son; she left to go seek out Ranma by following either the loud screams, or listen out for a huge splash.
/somewhere in a park near Nerima/
Yohko Mano the 108th generation of Devil Hunters was sitting quietly on a bench in front of a pond (3) alongside her best friend Chigako thinking what her Fiancée that both her grandmother and her future Mother-in-law told her about looked like, the only clues that she was given was that he was a man among men, this to her meant "ask every cute boy that comes within a 5 mile radius of her if their name was Ranma"
Her friend Chi (4) was both getting frustrated with Yohko's search for this Ranma person she overheard Yohko talking to herself, plus the fact that she didn't have any information on him which is also why Chi is also becoming a little more agitated as of late, she was supposed to have information on everyone in the area but she couldn't find any info one this one guy. There was only one Ranma that her friend, Who lived in the nerima area knows about, and apparently she made serious threats to anyone who might try selling information about him, Chi was lucky that she got the necessary information about All of the people in nerima (minus the curses) before Nabiki made that statement, that was a couple of weeks ago.
Chi: "Hey Yohko are you sure his name was Ranma? I've found no information about him, and I doubt that there is anyone who fits your description of him here"
Yohko: "of course I'm sure Chi oba-chan and saotome-san had said clearly that his name was Ranma, and check this out apparently he's a devil hunter so there's no chance of this one being possessed by devils at all."
Chi looked at Yohko as if she'd grown a second head, then something clicked in her brain, which suddenly made her realise why she couldn't find out about the person known as Ranma
Chi: "Yohko, by any chance is his last name Saotome?"
Yohko: " yes it is, why do you ask?"
Chi looked like she was about to have a heart attack
Chi: 'no wonder Nabiki wanted this info all to herself, she's got a gold mine all prepared to live off for the rest of her life' "Yohko I think there are a few things that you need to know about Ranma"
Yohko: "what you've got info on him? And you didn't tell me?"
Chi: "well at first I thought it was all a joke, but after hearing you say that he's a devil hunter, all of the information about him makes sense"
Yohko had an evil look in her eyes as she stared down Chi
Yohko: "Chigako, just how long have you known about Ranma?
Chi flinched when Yohko called her Chigako, this to her meant that Yohko was a little P, O'ed
Chi: "erm it depends what you mean by how long? Its either how long I've had notes about him? Or.."
Yohko's glare state seemed to just disappear as it was replaced with a grin that covered her face from side to side. This of course scared Chi
Yohko: (with a kawaii sort of look) "Oh Chi my best friend in the WHOLE world, by any chance do you have any pictures of Ranma?
Chi: "Sorry Yohko but the best thing that I've got on him is what his life has been like since he arrived at Nerima, and apparently it sounds to unbelievable to believe"
Yohko: "how did you get these notes in the first place?"
Chi: "well before I moved here from Nerima I used to be a friend of a girl from the area called Nabiki Tendo, we were the best of friends and I was a the only person who could break her icy shell that she built since her mother died, we were going along just fine when she caught wind that I was giving away free info to people, so she ended our friendship and stated that she didn't want to hear from me again, being Nabiki she made up this huge rumour that i.."
Chi then stopped talking, afraid that she had said too much, she didn't want Yohko to hear what Nabiki had said about her, it was just too embarrassing and humiliating at the same time
Yohko: "Chi? Are you okay?
Chi: "I'm fine it's just that I don't want to talk about it anymore..but if you were talking about where I got the info from, it was a couple of days before I left Nerima, I was searching around Nabiki's files which I hacked in without her detecting me (puffs chest out in pride) and there was this information on one Ranma Saotome, there were other files but they were encrypted with codes that even I couldn't get through"
Yohko: "what do you think those files were about? They probably seemed important if they were more secure than the other files"
Chi: "its probably nothing" 'yeah right that stuff probably has Nabiki set for life' "with that done I looked at the files and was shocked at what I saw"
Yohko: " what did you see?"
Chi: "if you really want to know then brace yourself, if these files are right then this Ranma you're searching for is extremely powerful, Nabiki's lackeys claim that they've seen him learn martial arts techniques within a couple of days and that includes difficult ones that masters cant master for weeks, even months, and there were reports of him creating whirlwinds with uppercuts and throwing hundreds of punches in under 3 seconds!!"
Yohko was looking a Chi with wide-eyes while she was digesting this information, this was turning out better than she expected, her fiancée seemed strong and could take care of both himself and her, what caught her attention is what Chi said next
Chi: "oh and get this Yohko, lately he just came back from a place called Jusendo in China where he tore apart a God with his bare hands"
Yohko was about to reply to that when they heard a male voice shout out from above them
???: "WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE WATER????"
Yohko looked up and her eyes widened as saw a boy that was around her age, he had Sapphire Blue eyes that showed both wisdom and torment, the raven black hair that tied into a pigtail at the back blow wildly as he plummeted towards the pond, making a tsunami that luckily missed her and Chi, the only thing that crossed her mind when she saw him was
Yohko: "what a babe!!"
Moments after saying that, she felt her mind going into a frenzy as she screamed out in pain and blacked out.
/a few minutes ago/
Ranma was currently flying through the air due to the incident with Akane, he was in a crossed leg position looking at the pendant that his mother had given him, he could of sworn that he'd seen the exact same pendent but he couldn't quite place a finger on it. While he was trying to remember he heard a voice, which sounded like his mothers.
Nodoka: @Ranma can you hear me?@
Ranma looked around to see if his mother was around when realised that he was still in the air moving at a high pace and he really doubt that his mother would get hit by Akanes mallet.
Nodoka: @Ranma look at the pendent that I gave you@
Ranma looked towards his pendent and he was surprised to see it glowing a bluish green colour and the eyes on the dragon/demon were glowing bright red
Ranma: "mom, is that you? How are you doing this?"
Nodoka: @that my son is a part of your heritage, the pendent that you have around your neck had belongs to your ancestor@
Ranma: "and how exactly are you able to talk to me?"
Nodoka: @oh that, well you see I have two Katanas, one in which is the Saotome family blade and the other belongs to my ancestor which was passed down to every generation, the Demon sword, its got the same dragon/Demon design as your pendent
Ranma: "okay so what was so important about this ancestor of ours?"
Nodoka: @ over 107 generations ago she was one of the first Devil Hunters made along with her best friend Haruka Mano, her name was Megumi hino (5)@
Ranma: "Devil Hunter? What do you mean by that?"
Nodoka: @what I mean by Devil Hunter is that we hunt down demons that try and destroy the human race along with the humans that live on it@
Ranma: "and you are telling me this now because."
Nodoka: @well ever since you killed the Demon kings older brother your Devil Hunter powers have come alive and now is the time that you train with your new powers@
Ranma: "a Demon kings older brother?! Who was that?, the only time that I killed was at jusendo when I fought..."
Ranma's eyes widened greatly when he realised that his most powerful opponent was what his mother was talking about; Nodoka had confirmed what Ranma was thinking
Nodoka: @that's right Ranma the Demon kings older brother was none other than Saffron@
Ranma had his eyes opened in shock, he had killed a living person but now if what his mother told him was true then Saffron, a demi-god demon that was the older brother of a demon king, he had killed with just martial arts moves and his devil hunter powers.
Ranma: "Mom, you mentioned something about solving my fiancée problem, can you please explain to me how me being a devil hunter will solve this."
Nodoka: @officially you've only got two fiancées to worry about, one of them is already related to you@
Ranma: "WHAT?!"
Nodoka: @we'll talk about that later but now we have to press on to more important issues, more importantly we need to talk about your soul mate@
Ranma: "MY WHAT?! What do you mean by soul mate?"
Nodoka: @well to tell you the truth when you were conceived I was 100% convinced that you would be a girl, but on the day that you were born I was shocked to find out that you were a Boy, but that wasn't the scary part@
Ranma had turned white when his mother said that she thought that he would be a girl, but still he was curious by what his mother saying that him being male wasn't the scary part
Ranma: "go on, what was the scary part?"
Nodoka: @ well on the exact same day in the same Hospital my best friend Sayoko Mano gave birth to a girl, but more importantly she was born at the same time as you"
Ranma: "and that's the scary part because?"
Nodoka: @it's the scary part because it is destined to happen, when a male is born to a Devil Hunter, a female is born at the same time and they will be soul mates, when both meet they will form a bond between them that will be impossible to break, and I've even took the liberty of engaging you to her, since their ancestor and our Ancestor made a vow to unite their blood lines to create the ultimate Devil Hunter that will have No equal@
Ranma: (getting a bit angry) "so that's how it is huh? You're getting me out of an engagement only to get me engaged again, but this time it's for good"
Nodoka: @don't even think about raising you voice towards me, I guarantee you when you meet her you will accept it, if not you can forget about the engagement and just go back to your hellish life with the Tendo's and get malleted by Akane 24/7@
Ranma was hesitant at first but he decided to go ahead with what his mom was planning, she had even given him a choice if it doesn't work out, so what the hell
Ranma: okay mom I guess I'll give her a try, when do I meet her? Oh mom can you tell me her name? I might as well know her name before I meet her.
Nodoka: @ of course my son, her name is Yohko Mano and...sorry about this Ranma but I have to go, I see the Amazons and they're making a fast pace towards me, I'll contact you later, bye@
Ranma: 'the Amazons?! Why would they be looking for mom? If they hurt her I'll..'
Ranma was brought out of his thoughts as he saw the one thing that found him quicker that a bloodhound could catch a smelly person, that thing was a pond in the middle of a park, and naturally the only thing he could say in times like these was:
Ranma: "WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE WATER????"
Ranma noticed two girls that were sitting on a bench near by and the one that caught his attention was the one who had brunet coloured hair that was braided and shaped into two hoops, one on both sides, her eyes were an emerald green which showed both depression and experience, as he fell closer towards the pond his only words were:
Ranma: "Kawaii (6)"
Ranma then felt a stinging sensation in his head which promoted him to scream and become unconscious, He then proceeded to hit the water, which instead of creating a wave from a belly flop instead caused a tsunami which roared towards the edge of the pool narrowly missing the two girls.
/Pond side/
Chi saw the Impact and prayed that the person was still alive, she heard an agonizing scream erupt from her as she saw her best friend clutch her head and drop to the floor, quickly rushing to her friends side she checked to make sure she was alright
Chi: "Yohko!! Are you okay?" 'She seems unconscious I just hope she's okay for a minute, I need to help that boy'
With that she ran towards the now calmed down pond and was prepared to dive in when she saw the boys body float towards the edge, Chi fished him out and laid him beside Yohko, she looked at him closely and make a rather startling discovery.
Chi: "Kami-sama, this can't be who I think it is"
Chi then confirmed her own suspicions when she looked that the boys face features and the distinctive Pigtail that was sticking out at the side, she had seen his face while hacking Nabiki's files, without a shadow of a doubt this was Yohko's Fiancée
Chi: "it is him, this is the god slayer, Ranma Saotome.
End Chapter 1 Authors notes: Lower Earth Orbit And as usual akane's logic is simple "whatever the baka's doing is surely either plotting to bully Ryoga-kun or P-Chan or it's probably something perverted What do you think its there for? ^_^ Chigako Its still her name but Chi is shorter, if you don't believe me then watch the anime Absolutely NO relation to Rei Hino from sailor moon. Kawaii = Cute Well that's another one off my chest About what I said last chapter about there being a shock, well that's being taken to the next chapter because I had an idea that came to me and decided to write this before I'd released the next chapter. In the Next chapter some relations are revealed as both Ranma and Yohko meet for the first time, and what will happen when they find out that the people that they know aren't who they really are. What about Chi? What did Nabiki do to her? And why is she still bothered about it? What will happen now that Nerima is currently Ranma-less And most of all why is Ranma's body still male? Find out next chapter. Till then see ya
What happened in last part: Ranma had killed Saffron the phoenix god, and doing so awakened a power that has been hidden in him since he was born. Meanwhile in Nerima Nodoka and Ukyo had begun to set the path that will lead Ranma to happiness, or so they think.

Nodoka: @that's right Ranma the Demon kings older brother was none other than Saffron@
Ranma had his eyes opened in shock, he had killed a living person but now if what his mother told him was true then Saffron, a demi-god demon that was the older brother of a demon king, he had killed with just martial arts moves and his devil hunter powers.
Ranma: "Mom, you mentioned something about solving my fiancée problem, can you please explain to me how me being a devil hunter will solve this."
Nodoka: @officially you've only got two fiancées to worry about, one of them is already related to you@
Ranma: "WHAT?!"
Nodoka: @we'll talk about that later but now we have to press on to more important issues, more importantly we need to talk about your soul mate@
Ranma: "MY WHAT?! What do you mean by soul mate?"
Nodoka: @well to tell you the truth when you were conceived I was 100% convinced that you would be a girl, but on the day that you were born I was shocked to find out that you were a Boy, but that wasn't the scary part@
Ranma had turned white when his mother said that she thought that he would be a girl, but still he was curious by what his mother saying that him being male wasn't the scary part
Ranma: "go on, what was the scary part?"
Nodoka: @ well on the exact same day in the same Hospital my best friend Sayoko Mano gave birth to a girl, but more importantly she was born at the same time as you"
Ranma: "and that's the scary part because?"
Nodoka: @it's the scary part because it is destined to happen, when a male is born to a Devil Hunter, a female is born at the same time and they will be soul mates, when both meet they will form a bond between them that will be impossible to break, and I've even took the liberty of engaging you to her, since their ancestor and our Ancestor made a vow to unite their blood lines to create the ultimate Devil Hunter that will have No equal@
Ranma: (getting a bit angry) "so that's how it is huh? You're getting me out of an engagement only to get me engaged again, but this time it's for good"
Nodoka: @don't even think about raising you voice towards me, I guarantee you when you meet her you will accept it, if not you can forget about the engagement and just go back to your hellish life with the Tendo's and get malleted by Akane 24/7@
Ranma was hesitant at first but he decided to go ahead with what his mom was planning, she had even given him a choice if it doesn't work out, so what the hell
Ranma: okay mom I guess I'll give her a try, when do I meet her? Oh mom can you tell me her name? I might as well know her name before I meet her.
Nodoka: @ of course my son, her name is Yohko Mano and...sorry about this Ranma but I have to go, I see the Amazons and they're making a fast pace towards me, I'll contact you later, bye@
Ranma: 'the Amazons?! Why would they be looking for mom? If they hurt her I'll..'
Ranma was brought out of his thoughts as he saw the one thing that found him quicker that a bloodhound could catch a smelly person, that thing was a pond in the middle of a park, and naturally the only thing he could say in times like these was:
Ranma: "WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE WATER????"
Ranma noticed two girls that were sitting on a bench near by and the one that caught his attention was the one who had brunet coloured hair that was braided and shaped into two hoops, one on both sides, her eyes were an emerald green which showed both depression and experience, as he fell closer towards the pond his only words were:
Ranma: "Kawaii (6)"
Ranma then felt a stinging sensation in his head which promoted him to scream and become unconscious, He then proceeded to hit the water, which instead of creating a wave from a belly flop instead caused a tsunami which roared towards the edge of the pool narrowly missing the two girls.
/Pond side/
Chi saw the Impact and prayed that the person was still alive, she heard an agonizing scream erupt from her as she saw her best friend clutch her head and drop to the floor, quickly rushing to her friends side she checked to make sure she was alright
Chi: "Yohko!! Are you okay?" 'She seems unconscious I just hope she's okay for a minute, I need to help that boy'
With that she ran towards the now calmed down pond and was prepared to dive in when she saw the boys body float towards the edge, Chi fished him out and laid him beside Yohko, she looked at him closely and make a rather startling discovery.
Chi: "Kami-sama, this can't be who I think it is"
Chi then confirmed her own suspicions when she looked that the boys face features and the distinctive Pigtail that was sticking out at the side, she had seen his face while hacking Nabiki's files, without a shadow of a doubt this was Yohko's Fiancée
Chi: "it is him, this is the god slayer, Ranma Saotome.
End Chapter 1 Authors notes: Lower Earth Orbit And as usual akane's logic is simple "whatever the baka's doing is surely either plotting to bully Ryoga-kun or P-Chan or it's probably something perverted What do you think its there for? ^_^ Chigako Its still her name but Chi is shorter, if you don't believe me then watch the anime Absolutely NO relation to Rei Hino from sailor moon. Kawaii = Cute Well that's another one off my chest About what I said last chapter about there being a shock, well that's being taken to the next chapter because I had an idea that came to me and decided to write this before I'd released the next chapter. In the Next chapter some relations are revealed as both Ranma and Yohko meet for the first time, and what will happen when they find out that the people that they know aren't who they really are. What about Chi? What did Nabiki do to her? And why is she still bothered about it? What will happen now that Nerima is currently Ranma-less And most of all why is Ranma's body still male? Find out next chapter. Till then see ya
