Chapter 25: Ranma Loses Control

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or Ranma ½.

READ THIS!

I was severely disappointed at the fact that no one reviewed my last chapter. I was expecting at least one or two reviews on my ideas for a four way cross over which is also a continuation of this story, but, come on, NO REVIEWS?

As punishment for your foul deeds (tut tut tut), I have decided to make all of you give me at least 90 reviews before I submit the next chapter. Now, please, read the next part.

Just as a teaser for all of you, I've got a new story planned. It's another Ran/Inu, kind of a continuation from this story, but it will include a crossover with School Rumble and Full Metal Panic. That's right: A four way anime crossover.

The setting will be against a schooling background where the main characters of the stories which I deem fit to enter my story will appear. The characters will be in one homeroom, 2-C, as a tribute to the original 2-C class from School Rumble. There will be some AU, though.

Ranma – Not too much AU here, only Ranma, Akane and Ukyo will appear in the story, with the occasional visits from the NWC. Also, Ms. Hinako will be appearing as the English Teacher and Ryoga joins school again since his vendetta with Ranma is finished.

Inuyasha – The Inu gang decide to go to school with Kagome, for once and will be staying at the Higurashi Shrine.

Full Metal Panic – Sousuke and Kaname will be appearing and it will NOT have Sousuke disappearing off at any given moment.

School Rumble – The Tsukamoto Sisters are now fraternal twins, Tenma will have her gang appearing, Yakumo with Sara. Harima, of course, with Karasuma and Hanai. Tani-sensei will be the homeroom teacher.

The name: Crossover High, but I may change it. Suggestions for a title can be submitted via reviews. Also, please tell me what you think of it. Also, if you want any other characters from any of the anime mentioned above to appear in the new 2-C, please tell me, but I will only be able to do a maximum of 25 students. I already have 19, so there are only six places available.

Confirmed Pairings: (Ranma, Akane) (Ryoga, Ukyo) (Kagome, Inuyasha) (Miroku, Sango) (Sousuke, Kaname) (Tenma, Ooji) (Yakumo, Kenji) (Haruki, Mikoto) There is a possibility that I will do some crossover pairings. All the pairings above belong to their respective manga/anime.

Also, it is possible that I will end the story soon, probably at the end of this or the next arc, around chapters 35 – 40. If so, I will let you know in advance. 557 (exclusive)

No more words were exchanged as the group finally reached the Higurashi Mansion.

The group got ready for the fight of their lives.

Ranma (Umisenken) and Inuyasha went in and quickly took out the guards with guns before they could see what was going on. Ryoga and Genma were at the main output power box. They destroyed it so the Higurashi army inside would be blind.

Once Ranma and Inuyasha were finished taking out the guards, they smashed the front door down and went in different directions in the dark mansion (it is currently the dead of night) and they went into separate rooms, which shut behind them once they entered the rooms.

It was going to be a hellish night.

Cologne thought for a moment.

"State your needs."

Shiro Higurashi smiled. The Nerima Wrecking Crew won't know what hit them. Literally.

Shiro left the place and made a beeline back to his mansion, but first, he would pay a visit to the Tendo Dojo when his informant said where she was staying. (No need to state who 'she' was)

He reached the dojo in his black tinted car, shut the engine and went to the Dojo. He was pleased when he heard there were voices coming from the Dojo and so he pulled his gun.

Kagome was talking quietly with Sango when she heard the door open. She spun around quickly, pausing only to grab her arrows and notched one into place. She pulled back the string only to see the devil himself pulling Kasumi and holding her at gunpoint.

Shiro was quit pleased with himself, having quickly caught a person to threaten them with. He held the girl at gunpoint and smiled evilly at the group in front of him.

Only his daughter had some kind of weapon pointed at him, the rest, at shock at what the situation was headed towards.

"Well, now, Kagome, here's the deal," he said, his cold voice ringing out and everyone could've sworn the temperature had plummeted.

"There's no deal, here, you bastard. Drop her, or I start shooting," she said acidly.

"Tsk tsk, Kagome, dear, I don't think that you quite understand. I'm the one with a 9mm and you only have prehistoric weapons," he replied in the same tone. "Now, I'll make this clear. You come with me quietly and I don't have to pump anybody full of lead." He proved his point by holding the gun to Kasumi's head and cocked the gun.

Akane, mean while, was thinking of a way to get out of this, but he couldn't see any way that was possible. If she moved one muscle, Kasumi would cease to be part of this world.

Kagome had the exact same thoughts running through her heads at the same time. She took one last look t around the room before a voice rung throughout the dojo.

"Well, Kagome?"

She glared at the voice before lowering her weapons slowly and moving towards him. Once she reached him, Shiro threw Kasumi back towards her father and took Kagome roughly. He grabbed on the arm roughly and quickly withdrew from the room.

By the time Akane had made sure Kasumi was alright and she ran to the entrance to the Tendo household, the car and their occupants had disappeared from view. She did, though, hear a voice which she was familiar with.

"Akane?"

She turned around and found Ukyo there with a take-away box of okonomiyaki and her mini-throwing spatulas with the huge spatula across her back.

Ranma had walked into a room that had been lit with candles. He walked into the centre of the room to find his opponent which was…

Ryoga.

However, he knew from the look in his eyes that this was not Ryoga. Seeing this knowledge, Ranma drew his sword and moved in to deal with the faux Ryoga.

Immediately, Ryoga morphed into Akane, halting Ranma's swing of his sword. It stopped just before it touched Akane. Once this happened, 'she' punched him and 'she' morphed back into Ryoga. Ranma flew back and did not find anytime to recover from this punch as Ryoga flew in and started to beat the stuffing out of him.

Ranma was helpless: every time he dodged, he barely had enough time to regain his balance before he had to dodge again, let alone attack.

Then, it happened.

Ryoga knocked the sword out of Ranma's hands and started to resume his beating. Ranma, reduced to fists, started to dodge again.

'Damn it, I need that sword back or else I can't fight him properly. So…'

Ranma flew into spiraling dance which drew Ryoga into the spiraling motion. Ranma completed the dance and prepared to uppercut.

"HIRYU SHOTEN-"

Ranma didn't finish the attack as Ryoga, faster than the original, knocked the wind from Ranma, who flew across the battlefield and slammed into the wall. Ranma slid to the ground in a cartoon fashion but it wasn't funny, considering the wall was reinforced with titanium and no matter how hard Ranma's head was, it can't surely break a solid steel wall.

Ranma stayed down because he couldn't believe he was losing to Ryoga. Then again, he knew that this was a fake but it was still a shock. It was 'Shishi Hokodan' all over again.

Then the door exploded and Ranma's vision became tinted red.

Ryoga was walking around the room he was trapped in, again, lit with candles. He heard a sound from behind him and he turned around.

Ukyo was standing behind him, smiling icily and wielding her giant spatula. Ryoga drew his umbrella and they charged.

The met each other in a weapon deadlock, pushing against each other, neither relenting from their attacks.

'Damn Shiro, forcing us to fight against out friends like this, it ain't fair, trying to crush our spirits like this,' he thought.

He and Ukyo broke apart before flying together again, engaging in yet another weapon deadlock. The held the position for ten seconds before flying back. This time, she threw some of he spatulas, forcing Ryoga to do some uncharacteristic backflips to dodge them.

'Damn it, no choice.'

"SHISHI HOKO DAN!"

The huge red blast erupted from his cupped hands and flew forward. It hit faux-Ukyo in the chest, who disappeared.

"Now that that's been taken care of, let's get out of here. BAKUSAI TENKETSU!"

He pointed his finger at the sealed door which crumbled into so much as dust. He stepped out into the dark hallway, but with the minimal light the candles provided, he saw another door across him that looked similar to the one the he had just destroyed. He pointed his finger to the door and ran through it.

Ranma's vision was changing, becoming redder and redder; his senses were increasing, to the point that Ranma could smell the fake Ryoga and, for some reason, lavender.

Then the real Ryoga appeared and took one look at the sword on the ground and the rapidly changing Ranma and realized that his sword was the seal for this transformation. The real Ryoga picked it up and waited for the opportunity.

Ranma had now finished changing. He boasted a set of claws to rival that of Inuyasha's changed form, he had more pronounced muscles, to the point that they had become visible through his Chinese silk shirt. He had the purple streaks across his cheeks.

But the worst transformation was his eyes. They were now red with a tinge of purple in them. But it wasn't the look of his eyes that terrified people, rather, the image that they were projecting.

The previous Ranma projected comfort, childishness, love (for one person) and care.

Now, they projected one thing.

Death.

Ryoga was actually terrified of this new Ranma, knowing he had the ability to slit his throat if he desired. He took one look at the fake Ryoga and decided to wait it out to see what happened.

Faux-Ryoga looked at Ranma, sizing up his new opponent, before he charged.

It was over in less than a second.

Ranma simply swiped at the faux-Ryoga, making him disappear from view, dispelling the illusion.

Then Ranma turned to Ryoga, looking at him for one second before charging.

In two swipes, Ranma disarmed and knocked Ryoga out. The sword flew through the air before landing in front of two very petite legs. But they did not move as she looked at Ranma.

"RANMA!"

Kagome was thrown into a room unceremoniously by her father. Through cruelty, she was thrown into a room that was next to the fight with a one way mirror, meaning that she could see everything, but they couldn't see her.

Then she a second Ryoga, the real one, she assumed, and saw the fake Ryoga disappear courtesy of demon-Ranma and the real Ryoga get knocked out and a door open up. She dashed through it and the sword landed at her feet, taking in the sight which Ranma had become.

Then her mind kicked into action and she picked up the sword and she dashed to Ranma, who instantly reacted by rushing towards her.

The result was a splattering of blood.

That's what you get for not reviewing my last chappie! (Pouts)

Anyway, I need to put this story on hold. The reason? The dreaded WRITER's BLOCK!

So, until I get my muse again, I don't know when you'll hear from me.

One last thing.
