Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, or Ranma, hell I don't even own any anime! I only have pirated stuff that ain't even in English! Bwahhahahahah!! Y'know, it'd be a lot cooler if I could understand it and not just look at the pretty pictures, bright lights and.ooooohhhh bright lights. *Wonky_donkey get's a little distracted by a passing car, it happens a lot as he lives under a bridge in a cardboard box*

Simply put, I don't own squat, let alone these any of these characters in this pathetic first attempt at a Fanfiction.

'Thoughts'

Flash backs

Nodaka continued her story.

"Ranma, your father and I come from very old and very powerful family lines. There is a place in Kyushu that a few select people know of as the Ninja country."

"This place is broken up into different countries, the five great ninja countries are: Earth country, Water country, Lightning country, Wind country and Fire country." She paused and waved her hand at her husband. "Your father is from the country of the wind, and I am from the fire country."

Nodaka had been battling this pledge ever since she had met *Ranko*at the Tendo Dojo, she had known about her husband and son's curses from that point onward and was surprised that he had tricked her into thinking that he was actually a girl when they first met.

-

The way he had been acting was more than enough to fulfill the pledges requirements.

-

The way that he used his curse to make his mother think that he was a girl had brought the thought of enforcing the pledge right then, came to her, but she stalled, she didn't want her only son's life to be put in danger because of a mistake.

That was then, after hearing his recount of the battle, she had no choice to uphold the pledge. He had forced her hand, a mother's love cold not stand in the way of the family's honor.

"From what I have been told right by your father and yourself, I have no choice but to fufil the pledge. You had this coming to you my son. I had hoped that this wouldn't happen, but it has, and Ninjas take honor just as seriously as Samurais, if not more. "

She looked directly into Ranma's eyes.

She used her right hand to unwrap the Saotome blade from the cloth that conceals it from prying eyes.

her left hand moved silently , and gripped onto the sheath to steady it.

She grasped the Handle

A/N: TO find out what happened, go to the next chapter already!

I woz planning to upload the next chapter tomorrow, but coz you guys sent me reviews, and my ego has been padded, I've uploaded the next chapter when I did this one. ^_^

Because Ranma 1/2 and Naruto are two different stories, written by different people, I'm going to have be creative, for it to make sense. (eg. The Ninja country being in Kyushu for example.)

THANX to: Alex ultra for the info on the Martial artist's code of honor, but I put the NO KILLING, AT ALL part for a reason it will all be explained in Chapter 4. also thanks for the "accept anonymous reviews" part.

L-Sama's Shadow Puppet, don't worry, I've got my muse in a strangle-hold, and there's no way for it to escape. unless it dies. but I can always buy another!! ^_^ so there will be chapters uploaded as fast as I can type them.

BOB the mercenary, yeah, there'll be a lot more fight scenes, hopefully better than that one.

And to all my other reviewers keep sending reviews! I'll accept anything, especially flames!! They keep me warm at night!!

SORRY! I MADE A TYPO!

Where Nodoka said: "Your father and I made this pledge over eight years ago..." in the last chapter, it's wrong, it's actually supposed to be: "Your father and I made this pledge over five years ago..".

Sorry bout the typo. I blame my other, *other* psychotic split personality(I have several).. big, hairy men in male nurses uniforms appear holding straight-jackets, large needles and electro-shock-thingees walk towards Wonky. WAIT! WAIT! I'M NOT CRAZY!! JUST LEAVE US..UH.. ME ALONE!! ARRGGHHHH!!!!
