Hild's son
Chapter 4: The devil in Ranma
Disclaimer: You all know the drill.
In Nifelheim Mara was busily working on her newest project, a demonic Ranma to try and frame him and bring him over to the demonic side making Mara think back to when she turned Urd into a demoness.
"Hopefully it won't be like last time?" Mara muttered to herself as she carried on working.
Midgard
Ranma had managed to rope Urd to teach Nabiki potions which gave him some free time to relax and he checked his e-mails.
"Sweet mother of mercy, there's a lot of e-mails from Bast, Amaratsu and Aphrodite?" he said to himself and checked through the e-mails "what's this all about… dates and possibly more… URD!" he added as he deleted the e-mails from the goddesses and came across one he didn't read and opened it and read the e-mail before sending a reply and going to find Urd.
"Am I doing this right?" Nabiki asked Urd who looked at what Nabiki was doing.
"You're doing it right." Urd replied.
"Urd, can I talk to you for a minute in private?" Ranma asked.
"Sure." Urd replied and followed Ranma out of the room and into another room.
"Urd, did you tell any other goddesses that I was back in the fold?" Ranma asked his sister.
"No why?" Urd replied.
"I've just checked my e-mails, quite a few from Bast, Amaretsu, Aphrodite and more goddesses about dates and possibly more plus one saying thank you… but that's possibly from someone who's wish I granted." Ranma said before they heard an explosion.
"I wondered when that was going to happen." Urd said before they went back to Urd's room and found shrapnel and debris all over the place and Nabiki lying on her back as Ranma and Urd navigated their way through shrapnel and debris before helping her up.
"You okay?" Ranma asked.
"Yeah." Nabiki replied as Urd cast a spell to repair her room just as Belldandy and Keiichi got back.
"The usual plan?" Urd asked.
"Gotcha." Ranma replied.
"What?" Nabiki asked.
"Remember me and Urd are half demon, we were always seen as outcasts." Ranma replied.
"We're home." Keiichi said and looked around to find the place still in one piece while Urd and Ranma prepared to bluff their way through the day about Nabiki accidentally blowing up a little part of the temple.
Nifelheim
Mara had just finished her project and started to laugh wildly as demon Ranma stood up and looked around then looked at Mara who was looking at demon Ranma hungrily.
"Perfect finally Ranma will be in Nifelheim all because of this clone." Mara said.
"Is that all I am a clone?" Demon Ranma asked.
"Yes." Mara replied and demon Ranma didn't like what he heard.
"What if I don't want to be a clone?" demon Ranma said angrily.
"You have no choice in the matter!" Mara snapped back earning a growl from demon Ranma before he grabbed her by the throat and pinned her against the nearest wall.
"Where can I find the original me so I can kill him?" demon Ranma asked as he applied pressure on Mara's throat making Mara gasp out a reply before dropping her and disappears.
"I don't know who's going to be more pissed at me, Hild-Sama or Ranma." Mara said to herself.
Midgard
Ranma and Nabiki had just been introduced to Keiichi's little sister Megumi but Ranma jumped to conclusions and dragged Keiichi into another room and pinned him up against a wall and threatened him before they sat down to dinner, Megumi sat beside Ranma and sneaked glances at him every so often.
"Can I get you anything?" Ranma asked.
"Pardon me?" Megumi asked and Keiichi smiled just a little bit.
"I don't know what you're smiling at kid." Ranma said making Keiichi stop smiling and almost choke on his food making Urd laugh at Belldandy stopping Keiichi from choking on his food.
"Oh yeah, I forgot to mention this earlier… I've found a place to stay so me and Nabiki will be moving out soon." Ranma said.
"Where will you be moving to?" Skuld asked.
"Juuban." Ranma replied to his youngest sister's question.
"That's where the Sailor Senshi are." Megumi said.
"Yes… I know." Ranma replied bitterly.
"You've met the Sailor Senshi?" Megumi asked.
"You could say I have, plus I've got a bone to pick with one of them." Ranma said leaving the last part out of the conversation with Keiichi's little sister, after dinner Ranma, Urd and Nabiki sat on the back porch.
"So, you're actually moving out of here?" Urd asked.
"Yeah." Ranma replied.
"Can't stand sharing the same bedroom as Keiichi?" Nabiki asked.
"He seems like a nice kid, but when you wake up in the middle of the night with a mortal hugging you, drooling on you and saying 'oh Bell-Chan' in their sleep I guess it's time to find a new place." Ranma replied.
"You should be used to it by now." Urd said.
"Please… don't remind me." Ranma replied making Nabiki curious about what Urd meant and decided to ask Ranma about it later when Mara arrived and triggered Skuld's anti-demon system leaving a slightly burned Mara twitching slightly on the floor.
"That's got to sting." Nabiki said.
"Yeah, but quite a light show though." Urd said as Ranma went and helped Mara up.
"Got a message for me Mara?" Ranma asked the blonde demoness.
"Not quite a message…" Mara replied blushing slightly.
"What have you done now Mara?" Urd asked.
"I've done something I really do regret doing." Mara replied.
"And that is?" Ranma asked.
"You know how Hild-Sama is lonely?" Mara replied.
"Mara, what have you done?" Ranma asked getting slightly irritated by Mara now.
"I… err… created a demon clone of Ranma to try and frame him." Mara replied as she stared at the floor.
"Why Mara? You've always been there for me when I've stayed in Nifelheim." Ranma said.
"Do you realize how lonely Hild-Sama gets?" Mara asked.
"How did you get hi DNA?" Urd asked.
"Same as I got yours, hair." Mara replied making Ranma look at his sister.
"You mean this happened to you before?" Ranma asked.
"Yes it did happen to me once before." Urd replied before Ranma helped Mara into the temple much to the protests of Keiichi and Skuld he placed Mara in Urd's room and Belldandy wondered what was going on and Urd explained what was going on.
"Oh my." Belldandy said as Ranma talked to Mara.
"When will it get here?" Ranma asked Mara.
"It could be here right now." Mara replied.
"I know you mean well Mara, get some rest and we'll go looking for it tomorrow." Ranma said before he got up and left Mara alone to get some rest.
"What's going on now?" Nabiki asked.
"Me and Mara are going to look for it tomorrow." Ranma replied and went to sit on the back porch with Urd and Belldandy, Urd had a bottle of Sake and a couple of glasses on standby and passed a glass to Ranma and poured some sake into it' "me and Mara are going looking for it tomorrow." Ranma told Urd and Belldandy.
