(Rin 1/2) Prologue
A Ranma 1/2 and Inu Yasha Crossover
Disclaimer: I own none of the characters in this story. This is a work of fanfiction, which
means I get to play god and change the characters around as I see fit. HA HA HA!
Notes: Okay I'm adding another fic to the slowly growing Ranma/Inu Yasha Crossover library.
I am still writing "Ranma's New Curse" but I just wanted to get this idea out of my head and
onto paper. It's an alternate universe for Ranma 1/2 but happens during the middle of Inu
Yasha. Confusing no? Anyway, I'm going to attempt to write a fic where Ranma gets together
with someone from the IY storyline. RIN!! Yeah I like Rin stories and what of it! I also
believe that this is the first Ranma/Rin story out there. Yeah Me! If not, would someone
give me the link to that story cause I wouldn't mind reading it. ^_^. I also put Kagome and
Ranma's original timeline in the year 2001 (when the Inu Yasha anime started) but the
Ranma 1/2 divergence occurs 6 years prior (when Ranma was 10, ie he meets the Tendo's in
2001). Please bear with me. (And if you understood that give yourself a pat on the back
cuz I didn't and I wrote it)
-------------------------------------Tokyo, Japan------------------------------------------
1995
Two figures collided again and again in the middle of an empty lot, each one trying
to dominate the other. The spectacle of two martial artists who considered an easy spar to
be an all out battle caused a crowd to form around the lot. From the glimpses the crowd
could get from when the two figures seperated, it seemed to be an old, balding man in a
white gi attacking a ten-year old boy with a pony-tail wearing the same type of gi.
Genma was impressed with the skills that his boy had showed during their spar. He
was teaching him well. Even though it would be years before the boy would ever best him,
he was not bad. He winced slightly as the boy hit him with a lucky shot to the chest.
Genma, proud that his son was able to hit him but angry that he had gotten hit, lashed out
at the ten-year old with a haymaker that connected and sent the boy to the ground. Seeing
that the boy would not be able to get up for a while, he relaxed his stance and walked over
to the boy, thus ending the sparring session of their daily training.
Ranma looked up at his father from his current position. He was panting hard from
exhaustion and was glad that his father had halted the session. For the past six and a half
years he had been with his father on a training trip that would last ten years. Despite
his current position Ranma was enjoying himself immensely. The only thing he missed was his
mother but his father had told him that showing emotions was unmanly and a weakness that
his enemies would exploit. Since his father knew best he tried his hardest to show no
emotions, though sometimes he would still cry himself to sleep. Shaking off that line of
thought, he focused on his goal of becoming the best martial artist in the world.
"That was a terrible display of Martial Arts boy! Have I taught you nothing!"
shouted Genma as he employed Saotome Teaching Technique #1: Insult them to the point where
they want to train just to get good enough to kick your ass.
Ranma, used to his father's odd style of teaching, responded in kind. "Yeah right
old man. Then why are you clutching your chest?" he asked with a smirk on his young face as
he pushed himself into a sitting position.
Genma, realizing that he had been absently rubbing the sore spot on his chest,
quickly thrust his arm behind his back and puffed out his chest. "Foolish boy! I was just
making you feel good about your loss." he said with a smirk as he knew that the boy had
inherited the Saotome pride and would now stop at nothing to remove the smirk from his face.
Ranma frowned at his father's insult as he shakily got to his feet. "I'll win one.
Just you wait." the boy stated with a smile as he got back into a ready stance to continue
the spar.
The boy's courageous spirit and never-say-die attitude was the thing Genma admired
most about his son. Even though the boy was hardly eleven, he had the courage of man many
times his age. He held up his hand as the boy fell into a ready position and spoke. "The
sparring session is over for today. It's time you learned a new technique."
Ranma's eyes went wide as his father reached into his gi and pulled out a book
with the title 'Advanced Combat' on the cover. "Cool! I get to learn a new move! Is it
really powerful?" he asked with stars in his eyes.
"Boy this techinique will make you the strongest fighter in the world. They'll be
no one that could best you. You will become Ranma Saotome master of The Cat Fist!"
"The Cat Fist. I like it. What do I have to do pop?"
"The training is relatively simple. I'll tie you up with these fish sausages and
throw you into that pit over there." He said pointing to a broken piece of wood behind him.
He lifted the piece of wood and both he and Ranma looked inside the pit to see dozens upon
dozens of cats that looked to be starving.
Ranma had a bad feeling about this. He quickly quashed that feeling and turned
towards his father. "And this technique will make me unbeatable?"
Genma nodded at the boy.
"I don't know..." said Ranma uneasily.
Genma scowled at Ranma as he grabbed the boy by the collar. "No son of mine is
going to wimp out of training like some sissy girl!" He wrapped the boy up in the sausages
and, despite his protests, threw him into the pit and sealed the top. He dusted his hands
off and walked to a corner of the lot to drink some sake as the boy trained. If Genma had
not been sucking back on the bottles he would have noticed the inhuman screams coming from
the pit.
----------------------------------Somewhere Near Mt. Fuji----------------------------------
1995
While Ranma was getting trained in the deadly art of The Cat Fist, another martial
artist of the same size was fighting his own losing battle. In the side of a mountian,
near a cave entrance, strange sounds could be heard coming from inside. The entrance to the
cave was blocked by a large boulder with a rope around it. Inside the cave the grandmaster
of anything goes martial arts was awake and very angry.
Happousai cursed once more as he tried desperately to escape from the trap his
students had set for him. "DAMN YOU SOUN AND GENMA!!" he shouted as he continued lobbing
Happo-daikirins at the wall in order to create a way of escape. What the little pervert
didn't realize was that the more he threw, the more rocks came down on him.
He had been trapped in the cave for six and a half years and hated every second of
it. Even though he had slept through the first year he was trapped (in order to remove all
the sake and sleeping potions that were unwillingly ingested into his system). After
causing yet another rock slide he finally decided to scrap the explosive approach.
He sat down and started to think of another way to get out. 'I can't believe those
two idiots had the balls and the brains to pull this off. I also can't believe that I'm
kinda proud of them.' he thought with a smirk. "It's gonna make torturing them all the more
enjoyable when I get out of here." he sighed as he shook the thought of roasting his
students alive out of his head. 'I gotta think of a way to get out of here. But I'm so
weak. I need some encouragement!' he thought with a smile as he searched his gi for
something. After five minutes of searching he began to get frantic. "Where are they? I
swore they used to be here. He stripped off his clothes and went through everything in his
possesion but all he could find was a mirror.
"I LOST MY PANTIES!! WWWWAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!"
He cried for almost five minutes (for him that's pretty long) and looked at the
mirror in his hand. "This mirror it did something. What was it?" he sat ontop of a rock as
he pondered what the mirror was used for. An evil smile came to his face as he remembered
just what it did. He let one of his tears drop onto the mirror and said. "TAKE ME TO GENMA
SAOTOME!" he dissapeared in a bright flash of light as the rest of the cave came down around
him.
-------------------------------------Tokyo, Japan------------------------------------------
1995
Genma was forced to wake up from his alchohol induced slumber as he saw a bright
white light appear in front of him. His grogginess was gone in a second as he realized
just who was in front of him. 'It can't be, we killed him.'
"Hello Genma, long time no see."
"Master! How disappointing, I mean how lovely to see you again so...alive." Genma
blabbed as he prostrated himself in front of the diminuitive martial artist.
"HA! Did you think that the trap you set was enough to stop me?" said Happousai with
a sneer. "Now prepare to taste my wrath!" Happousai's aura grew to an immense size as he
prepared to discipline his student.
Genma continued to beg forgiveness, trying to weasel his way out of a sound beating.
Happousai began to attack Genma with small bursts of ki as well as darting in for a
auick punch or kick. Genma, still feeling the effects of the alchohol that had not yet left
his system, could only dodge drunkenly. He cursed himself for being unprepared for the
return of the perverted master. If he hadn't been drunk he would have unsealed his secret
techniques on the old man. He continued to dodge blindly until Happousai finally connected
with a punch to his temple, which was quickly followed with more punches and kicks until
Genma was knocked down to the floor, bleeding from mulltiple places on his body.
"Heh, amateur. Now for Soun." he said to himself as he fished around for the mirror
once more.
Unknown to Happousai, Ranma had been training in the Cat Fist for almost three hours
and had been under it's effects for the last half hour. After licking it's wounds from it's
body, Neko-Ranma had felt a huge aura appear from above him. He leapt up to the top of the
20 foot pit and easily shredded through the wooden covering to find himself face to face
with the aura that was Happousai. Neko-Ranma hissed at the giant aura and prepared himself
for battle.
Happousai was shocked as he was suddenly attacked from behind. He felt something
claw through his aura and when he looked at it he saw that it had been sliced into four
pieces. His eyes focused on the figure that dared to attack him and he was startled at what
he saw. A boy, no older than ten years old was crouched down on all four limbs and was
hissing at him. What surprised Happousai more was the size of the childs aura, it nearly
rivaled his own.
Genma looked up from the ground through his soon-to-be black eyes and swollen face
and saw an amazing thing. His son was facing off against Happousai! Genma noted that the
boy was acting like a cat and Genma, despite his wounds, was happy. 'My boy has matered the
Cat Fist. He will be the best Martial Artist of his generation. My wife I have not failed
you.' He muttered his son's name one last time and fell to the ground, slowly dying from
blood loss.
Happousai lifted his eyebrow in fascination as he heard Genma mutter 'Ranma' before
passing out. "Amazing, how could a fool like Genma train someone to be this strong so
quickly." He remembered overhearing Genma telling Soun that he had a son while they were
training under him. 'So this is also his boy.' with a smirk he addressed the cat-boy.
"Want to avenge your father do you boy? Let's see how well you do." He summoned his battle
aura once as he prepared to square off against the child.
Neko-Ranma looked at the small shriveled figure in confusion. At first he thought
that it was a small rodent of some sort for him to play with. That thought went out the
window as he felt the aura of figure grow stronger and bigger than before. With an arch of
his back and a growl, he leapt toward the figure, ready to defend his territory.
The perverted master of anything-goes-martial arts could not figure out how to read
his opponent. The boy seemed to have a speed that rivalled his own and he could not make
out his patterns. No matter how much condensed chi he fired at the boy, he would cut through
it as if it was paper. He had started to throw Happo-daikirins at the boy but the boy would
either dodge them before they exploded or cut the bomb in two. Happousai had numerous
scratches on his arms and chest and was not in very good shape. From what he could see his
opponent had scratches covering his entire body, but none of them were caused by him.
Happousai was running low on chi and decided to finish this fight once and for all.
'No snot-nosed little punk's gonnna make a fool of me!' He reached into his gi and readied
a Happo-daikirin. He stood on the floor and watched as the boy circled him. He waited until
the boy charged straight at him to take out the bomb. "Now go back to where the other demon's
like yourself will tear you apart!" He through the bomb at the boys oncoming form as the boy
swiped at the old man with his claws. Happousai thought he had won until he saw just what he
had thrown. The Nanban mirror flew towards Ranma with mixtures of both Ranma and Happousai's
blood on it. "NNNNOOOOO!!!" was the last thing he shouted as a bright light flared in front
of him. When the light vanished Ranma was nowhere to be found and Happousai was in four
pieces on the ground of the abandoned lot.
----------------------------------------Sengoku Jidai----------------------------------------
Forest
Sesshomaru leaned against a tree, contemplating the problem of his brother. No matter
how hard he tried, he could never take the Tetsusaiga from his brother's hands. How could
Inu-Yasha, a mere hanyou, deserve their father's blade more than Sesshomaru, the full-blooded
heir. It made him seethe in anger to know that his brother was parading around with his
father's killing fang while he was stuck with a sword that couldn't even kill anything. His
youki flared in anger as he slowly boiled. Knowing that just sitting here wasn't going to help
him any, he calmed down and called out to his servant Jaken.
"Come to me Jaken!" he snapped as he looked around for the snivelling toad demon that
was his retainer. "Where is he?" he looked around their campsite some more and found that the
third member of their party was also missing. "Jaken!" He shouted as followed the demon's smell
away from the camp and deeper into the forest.
----------------------------------------Sengoku Jidai----------------------------------------
In Another Part Of The Forest
"Are we almost there Jaken-sama?" asked Rin as she followed the small demon through the
forest.
"Almost." called the small demon as he led her deeper into the forest. He had told her
that they was a beautiful meadow full of flowers that she could give to Sesshomaru-sama. What
he hadn't told her was that this forest was filled with demons who would not like a human
tesspassing onto their lands. He planned on leading her in far enough so that he could lose her
and leave her to the demons. He would go back to Sesshomaru-sama and they would continue their
quest for the Tetsusaiga without the annoying human girl.
Unaware of the plot against her, Rin continued to whistle happily while following Jaken.
The rwo of them walking together was an odd sight. She was a cute looking girl of about 8 years
old and yet she traveled around happily with the small toad demon. She was looking for flowers
for Sesshomaru-sama in order to cheer him up. Even though he would never tell him what exactly
was bothering him, she was sure she could cheer him up.
Jaken and Rin's walk was halted as a bright light appeared in front of them. Both covered
their eyes when it appeared and opened them when it dissappeared.
"That was strange." commented Jaken as he looked around to see what damge the light had
done. He looked around but could not find anything on the ground except for a broken mirror and
some blood. 'hmmm... What could that light have been? I must tell Sesshomaru-sama.' His thoughts
were interuppted by a cry that came from Rin's direction. He turned around to see what had startled
her and was confused by what he saw.
Rin had been slightly blinded by the bright light that had suddenly appeared before them
and was still seeing spots as she tried to find Jaken among the dots. When the circles had finally
cleared her field of vision, she saw a black blur jump out of the trees and right onto her. She
screamed in surprise and waited for whatever it was to attack her as she thought to herself,
'Sesshomaru-sama. help me!'
Sesshomaru had heard Rin's scream and rushed to the area where Jaken and Rin were. He saw
the black blur jumped onto Rin but was then confused by what he saw next.
Rin cracked open one eye as she wondered why she was not in pain. She looked down and to
her surprise she saw a black furred cat-demon that seemed to be a little older than herself, purring
in her lap. The demon had black fur cover it's body and had a long black tail. It's hair was done
up in a pony-tail which reached to his lower back. It was wearing a torn white pants and no shirt
and she could see that it had scratches over it's entire body. She hesitantly petted the demon and
it purred even more. She smiled and began to stroke it in earnest, finding it's fur to be nice and
soft. She looked up to see Sesshomaru looking at her strangely. She continued to pet the demon as
she asked him, "Can we keep him?"

In Another Part Of The Forest
"Are we almost there Jaken-sama?" asked Rin as she followed the small demon through the
forest.
"Almost." called the small demon as he led her deeper into the forest. He had told her
that they was a beautiful meadow full of flowers that she could give to Sesshomaru-sama. What
he hadn't told her was that this forest was filled with demons who would not like a human
tesspassing onto their lands. He planned on leading her in far enough so that he could lose her
and leave her to the demons. He would go back to Sesshomaru-sama and they would continue their
quest for the Tetsusaiga without the annoying human girl.
Unaware of the plot against her, Rin continued to whistle happily while following Jaken.
The rwo of them walking together was an odd sight. She was a cute looking girl of about 8 years
old and yet she traveled around happily with the small toad demon. She was looking for flowers
for Sesshomaru-sama in order to cheer him up. Even though he would never tell him what exactly
was bothering him, she was sure she could cheer him up.
Jaken and Rin's walk was halted as a bright light appeared in front of them. Both covered
their eyes when it appeared and opened them when it dissappeared.
"That was strange." commented Jaken as he looked around to see what damge the light had
done. He looked around but could not find anything on the ground except for a broken mirror and
some blood. 'hmmm... What could that light have been? I must tell Sesshomaru-sama.' His thoughts
were interuppted by a cry that came from Rin's direction. He turned around to see what had startled
her and was confused by what he saw.
Rin had been slightly blinded by the bright light that had suddenly appeared before them
and was still seeing spots as she tried to find Jaken among the dots. When the circles had finally
cleared her field of vision, she saw a black blur jump out of the trees and right onto her. She
screamed in surprise and waited for whatever it was to attack her as she thought to herself,
'Sesshomaru-sama. help me!'
Sesshomaru had heard Rin's scream and rushed to the area where Jaken and Rin were. He saw
the black blur jumped onto Rin but was then confused by what he saw next.
Rin cracked open one eye as she wondered why she was not in pain. She looked down and to
her surprise she saw a black furred cat-demon that seemed to be a little older than herself, purring
in her lap. The demon had black fur cover it's body and had a long black tail. It's hair was done
up in a pony-tail which reached to his lower back. It was wearing a torn white pants and no shirt
and she could see that it had scratches over it's entire body. She hesitantly petted the demon and
it purred even more. She smiled and began to stroke it in earnest, finding it's fur to be nice and
soft. She looked up to see Sesshomaru looking at her strangely. She continued to pet the demon as
she asked him, "Can we keep him?"
