Summary: Inuyasha/Ranma ½ Crossover… Inuyasha is confused with Kagome's going to a new school, high school was it? And… Ranma and the gang get suckered into going into the past by Cologne to defeat Naraku who threatens the present.
AN: Oh wow, thanks for all the reviews guys, I never knew there were so many Ranma fans out there. Most of those who know about Inuyasha don't even know there is a great Ranma ½ idea in the world. Thank you lots and lots.
Big Trouble In Sengoku Jidai
Chapter 3—
Blast to the Past
"Kagome!!" A little blur breezed by and slammed Kagome in the stomach; she nearly fell over with laughter.
"Shippou, I'm happy to see you too." She looked down at the little kit who was grinning up at her.
Shippou was grabbed by the tail and pulled away from Kagome. "Are you stupid or something, do you want to injure Kagome so that we can't go shard hunting?" Inuyasha growled angrily at him
"Hey! Lemmie go!" Shippou wriggled about trying to get out of Inuyasha's grasp.
"If you insist." Inuyasha said calmly and tossed Shippou over his shoulder and into the trees.
Kagome put her hand on her hips and glared at Inuyasha. "What did you do that for?"
Inuyasha tilted his head to the side. "Because he deserved it." He turned away, thinking to himself that Shippou was marring her heavenly scent with his disgusting one. But he was certainly not going to admit that to her. "He could have injured you and then we would be delayed even more."
"Is that all you care about, the shards?"
"Duh." Inuyasha said, having picked up that word from Kagome.
Kagome sighed. "Well I figured the shards are very important, but what about friendship, don't you feel just a bit well friendlier towards Shippou now?"
"Should I?" Inuyasha said densely. "It shouldn't matter how I treat any of you, we have a job to do, we can figure out pleasantries later after I kill Naraku." It was then that a gold jingling staff embedded itself in Inuyasha's skull and he fell forward. "Monk!" He growled turning around seeing Miroku standing there with an equally perturbed Sango.
"I'm surprised that Lady Kagome hasn't decided to take up this journey on her own, especially after what you just said." Miroku said calmly and moved to Kagome's side. "In fact I have a brilliant idea, why don't you and Sango come alone with me and we'll seek out the shards together, and do well other things together. Just the three of us, spending night upon night together." He sighed. "What do you say?" He said putting an arm around her shoulder and squeezing her closer. Lifting an eyebrow, Kagome looked up at Miroku she was about to slap his hand away but she heard Inuyasha growling.
"Get your hands off of Kagome before I remove them myself." Inuyasha pushed Miroku away from Kagome standing between them.
Calmly, Miroku straightened his robes. "I was only offering her another solution, since you obviously don't care how you treat us."
"You just keep your offerings off of Kagome or else." He raised his claws, seeing Miroku chuckle did not help the situation.
"Relax, Inuyasha, I don't think Kagome would ever go off without you, I was just teasing." Miroku glanced over at Kagome whose face was bright red and she looked towards the ground. "Right Kagome?" He said suggestively.
"Er…uh…we have shards to gather." Kagome quickly spun around on her heel and started walking towards the village, and Inuyasha without saying a word followed after her.
Sango who had Shippou perched on her shoulder came up behind Miroku. "Get going you hentai, we need to keep up." Sango shook her head and turned also to follow Kagome and Inuyasha, Kirara kept up the rear making sure Miroku didn't try anything, of course Kirara couldn't keep Miroku from staring longingly at Sango's behind.
"Ah the things I get to see when one is last." And he followed after the group.
Ranma couldn't believe what he was staring at, it was huge, it had too many tentacles to count. It had some strange baboon shaped body. He felt Akane clutch onto his arm tighter and he looked at her and then at Cologne. "Well don't you have an answer you old hag?!"
The tip of Cologne's staff whacked Ranma on the head. "Who you calling an old hag?"
"The jewel shard." The creature said. "Give it to me." It demanded moving closer to Ranma and Akane. He saw the girl put her hand against the pink jewel covering it from his sight.
Cologne moved closer to Akane. "What ever you do, do not give it to him."
"Why does it want my necklace, I don't understand." Akane said, looking up at the creature. A tentacle reached out for Akane, but she jumped out of the way.
"You try my patience human." The creature said calmly, to once again grab for the girl, Ranma this time kicked at the tentacle and it stopped its assault. "If you give me the jewel shard, I will make your deaths less painful."
Ranma rolled his eyes. "As if saying something like that is going to make us give you the crystal."
"Akane Tendou!" A voice from their left alerted Ranma and Akane, it was Kuno. He jumped into the air followed by his loyal retainer Sasuke, and brought his now real katana down on the tentacle reaching for Akane, slicing it off. He spun around and pointed his sword up at the creature. "How dare you, you fiend. For trying to injure the lovely Akane Tendou, I Tatewake Kuno will inflict serious pain upon you. Prepare to die!" He jumped up and began slicing at tentacles that came at him, he couldn't believe it, they simply grew back but he kept fighting on, swinging his sword left and right up and down, severing many of them.
"Ranma, Shampoo help you." She had been up on the roof holding her bon bori, and flipped down hitting at the tentacles, aiming for the body. "You no hurt Ranma!" Shampoo shouted. A tentacle hit her hard in the chest. "Aiiiiiieeee!!!" and it knocked her out of her acrobatic moves and she plummeted towards the earth.
"Shampoo!" A male's voice and a body jumped onto the scene and shot a yoyo out of his sleeve at Shampoo, it wrapped around her waist and she was pulled to safety.
Shampoo was so relived that she did not hit the earth, "Mousse, you stupid. I did no ask you help!" She shouted at him.
Mousse looked up at the creature. "You hurt my beautiful Shampoo, for that you will pay!" Mousse shouted, and many weapons shot out of his sleeves and he ran towards the creature shouting a war cry.
Walking, carrying a box of okonomyaki, Ukyou was delightfully thinking of things she could do with Ranma when Mousse flew threw the air and crashed into her. "Oh you!!"
"Sorry Ukyou, I can't talk now. I have to help Shampoo." Mousse jumped to his feet but Ukyo hit him on the back of the head with her giant spatula. "Owww. What'd ya do you that for?"
"Where you fighting with Ranma again?" She threatened him by pressing her spatula against his face. "How dare you hurt the man I love!"
"No, no you don't understand!" He waved his hands wildly in the air. "There's a monster we were all fighting it, and I got thrown."
Ukyou, shocked, grabbed Mousse by the shirt sleeve, "A monster? Let's go!" She said jumping quickly in the direction Mousse came at her, dragging him behind. As she and Mousse approached the scene, they saw a huge battle going on. The two jumped instantly back into it. Ukyou swung her spatula around, slicing through tentacles. There was a scream, but it did not stop anyone from fighting.
"Ranma!!!" Akane screamed as a tentacle had wrapped itself around her.
Ranma stopped his assault on the monster shocked, "Akane!" He shouted, he was about to jump to rescue her when several spinning razor sharp objects flew through the air slicing through the tentacle that held Akane.
Akane covered her face with her hands as she felt herself secure in someone's arms, she opened her eyes and looked into the face of her rescuer. She gasped. "Ryouga thank you, you saved me." She clasped her hands together and smiled.
On the ground Ranma grumbled and said under his breath. "Nice save pig boy." A tentacle shot out at him and he jumped in the air punching and kicking at the tentacles that reached for him. Akane and Ryouga immediately jumped to the air, back into the battle.
"Give me the jewel!" The monster shouted and reached for Akane again, but she was fighting off the tentacles better than before now. He punches and kicks were more accurate and with a more devastating hit.
It was when a short little old man with a green sack on his back came jumping through the scene, he was just about to pass when he stopped short and slowly turned around. The girls that were chasing him with shouts of pervert and get back here stopped immediately. At the sight of the creature, the girls decided to forget about their stolen underwear and turn around hightailing it out of there, screaming for their lives.
"Akane, I'll protect you!" The little man shouted jumping up towards the creature, doing his greatest technique. "Happo Fire Burst!!!!" He shouted and dozens of tiny bombs headed for the creature, they exploded and the creature faded away, leaving only a wooden doll with a single hair wrapped around it. Nine heads looked down at the wooden object, while Happosai sat quietly on the ground smoking his pipe.
"Just what was that thing?" Ranma voiced out loud.
"That, son-in-law," Cologne started…"Is demon puppetry."
Shampoo stood with her hands on her hips. "The thing keep calling for jewel piece, why no stupid violent pervert girl give it, why we all have fight stupid puppet."
Akane growled. "Who you calling a stupid, violent, pervert girl!?"
"Quiet all of you." Cologne demanded then said; "It was a good thing that Akane did not give the beast the jewel piece. I will explain."...
Moments later they were all seated around the table in the Tendou house, Kasumi walked in from the kitchen with a large tray full of lemonade, and gave a glass to everyone and sat down herself.
"Oh Akane…" Soun cried, clutching his daughter about the waist. "You were attacked by a fearsome beast, if only I had been there." He wept.
"Dad, come on now, I'm all right." Akane said rolling her eyes and trying to control her dad's blubbering.
A large leather bound book was opened, the front half hitting the table with a loud pounding noise getting everyone's attention. Cologne cleared her throat and began to speak.
"About five hundred years ago an ancient gem called the Shikon no Tama, which was once guarded by a beautiful priestess, would grant power to those who seek it. No one was spared from the lust of this jewel, demons and humans alike all responded to the call of power that came from obtaining this one jewel. The priestess died while protecting the jewel and it was burned with her body, never to be seen again. Then fifty years later, the jewel somehow returned and once again the call of power had been headed and all would do anything to claim it. For some unknown reason the jewel was shattered, spreading its shards all across Japan. Through time, mostly all the shards were collected and restored to their proper form. All but one. That one remaining shard…" Cologne turned to Akane. "Belongs to Akane."
"What!" Akane jumped up, "Are you serious!?"
"Surely you jest." Kuno stated.
"Are we supposed to believe this fairy tale?" Mousse said also revealing his doubts about this whole thing, and received a whack on the head from Cologne's staff.
"You better believe it, it's very serious."
Ranma leaned on the table. "So just why was that puppet thing after it?"
Cologne would answer. "An evil creature by the name of Naraku wanted absolute power, he has survived to this day, lusting after the jewel. I have heard of rumors of his horror throughout all of Japan, butI thought they werejust stories told by theChinese Amazon elders to keep the children behaving, but nowas I see it, theJapaneselegends are true.Something must have gone wrong in the past when they were still searching for it, for this evil being to be alive today."
Ryouga leaned closer to Cologne. "What happens if he gets a hold of this shard and completes the jewel?"
"Then we are all doomed." Cologne said sounding rather distressed.
"What do we do great grandmother?" Shampoo asked tilting her head to the side.
"The only solution is to go back to the past, using Happosai's--rather my magic mirror to stop this event from ever occurring. It's the only way to save our future." Cologne said.
Ranma stood. "Well then that settles it, I'll go back and stop this creature, after all defeating demons is a martial artist's duty!"
"Oh no you don't Ranma," Ryouga growled. "I should go, it was my fault the jewel piece is in Akane's hands."
Ranma shrugged. "Whatever. I'm still going and their ain't anything you can do to stop me bacon breath."
Ryouga clinched his fist. "Who you calling Bacon Breath? You take that back, Ranma!" Ryouga snarled wanting to rearrange Ranma's face.
"Bacon breath, bacon breath." Ranma taunted, and stuck out his tongue.
Akane simply rolled her eyes. She was about to say something when Kuno cleared his throat.
"You are a real fool Saotome," Kuno glared at Ranma. "Risking your life for such a trinket." He ran his hand through his thick hair.
"I'll go with you Ranma." Akane said pleasantly.
Kuno gasped. "Akane Tendou alone with Ranma Saotome, I won't allow it, I won't I wont! I forbid it." He got to his feet. "So be it, I along with my faithful retainer Sasuke will accompany you on this journey of mad proportions."
"I will?" Sasuke looked up at Kuno shocked when he received a glare from his master, he sighed. "Oh, very well."
Shampoo also stood. "Shampoo go wherever Ranma go." She purred lightly.
"Then wherever Shampoo goes, I too shall go." Mousse said bravely.
Ukyou turned and glared at Shampoo. "I'll be going along too, so don't even think about getting too close to my Ranma-honey, Shampoo."
"Ooooh! You do no know when to stay out of other people business," Shampoo argued back with Ukyou, both of them growling at each other, face to face.
The room was soon echoing with the arguing of everyone until Soun in demon form spoke. "We all shall go."
The large panda held up a sign reading: 'I don't wanna go.'
Soun just turned and glared at growling out "Saotome…" Genma, the panda turns his sign around which reads, 'gee sounds like fun.'
"Oh Father," Kasumi spoke up. "Do you really think it is safe?"
"Oh Kasumi you worry too much," Nabiki said then drinking from her glass. "I think it would be a wise thing to experience something such as this." She was coming up with a plan that would in turn make her lots of cash. She was not passing this opportunity up.
"So that settles it, we'll all go!" Ranma shouted. "And stop this evil once and for all!"
Everyone cheered and put together packs and belongings to take on their journey, once they were finished they all joined around Happosai who had retrieved the magic mirror, which would transport them back in time. Cologne was staying in the future, she didn't even want to mess with going back into the past for something like that. She needed to defend the future from any spawn of Naraku that may threaten while her son-in-law and his friends attempt to change history.
"Now all we need is a tear." Happosai said.
"All right old man." Ranma said with an eerie look on his face, he looked up at his group and nodded and they immediately started attacking Happosai, until a tear pushed its way out of his eye and onto the mirror, in flash of bright light, everyone except Cologne disappeared.
Cologne hummed, "May they succeed."
The large group found themselves standing a golden field.
Soun looked around. "Did we make it?"
"The air smells cleaner, that's for sure." Akane said. "Which way should we go to look for this Naraku?"
Ranma checked in all directions. "What about the forest there, perhaps we can find a village of some kind that might have heard rumors about such a creature."
"I'll lead the way." Ryouga shouted and started taking off towards the woods.
"Hey wait a minute Ryouga, get back here. You'll get lost!" Ranma shouted but he noticed that his rival did not respond.
"He too, too stupid boy," Shampoo shook her head.
Not a moment later the large group heard Ryouga's loud yell and then silence. Ranma immediately raced off in the direction of Ryouga had gone, everyone following as well. The forest was so dense that Ranma had a hard time pushing his way through. He started slipping and sliding on loose dirt he went down a slight hill and headed straight for a stream.
"Oh no!!" Ranma couldn't find proper footing and he went head first into the freezing cold water. Surfacing, the red headed Ranma-Chan held her arms around herself. "Gee that's cold." Looking over at the bank of the river she saw Ryouga's wet clothes. "Oh of course pig boy also gets into trouble." Ranma-Chan waded towards the shore and stepped out, she picked up Ryouga's clothes and looked in all directions. "Now just where did that idiot wander off to?"
"Ranma?!" Akane was pushing her way through the forest, she saw the broken branches and looked down. "Ranma!? Are you all right?" She shouted down at him.
Ranma-Chan quickly shoved Ryouga's clothes behind her back. "A…Akane, I'm fine. But I can't find Ryouga anywhere."
Akane came sliding down the hill, avoiding tree branches and careful not to fall into the stream. "I hope nothing happened to him." She said with worry clearly in her eyes.
"I'm sure he's fine Akane, Ryouga's pretty tough. He can handle most things on his own."
"Ranma, you is okay?" Shampoo jumped down to where Ranma-Chan was and looked her over. "This no good, you girl now."
"Oh Pigtailed girl!!" Kuno shouted, "You've come back to me my love, now we can—" He was interrupted with Ranma-Chan's quick kick to his face. Just as the rest of the team had journeyed down to where Ranma-Chan was, she looked at all of them.
"We'll have to split up and search for Ryouga, who knows where that idiot is going to end up." Ranma-Chan said organizing the search groups.
Shampoo immediately jumped at Ranma-Chan circling her arm around Ranma-Chan's "I go with you Ranma."
"Oh no you don't!" Ukyou shouted, "If anyone is going with Ranma-honey, it's gonna be me!" She pointed back at herself.
"But Shampoo, I thought—" Mousse's voice couldn't be heard as the fighting between the girls started getting louder. Ranma-Chan groaned and surprised everyone by saying.
"Come on Akane, we can go this way." She glanced around this particular area. "All right we'll all meet back here in an hour. Ranma-Chan didn't really care who everyone paired up with, the more time they wasted the more Ryouga would wander further and further away.
Inuyasha decided to do the hunting for some food, they had finished off the ramen at breakfast this morning. Sango was in the other direction also gathering food for the group. Inuyasha was glaring at the ground as he walked through the brush, that stupid Monk better keep his hands off Kagome while he and Sango were searching for food. If he so much as lays one finger on… hearing a squealing broke Inuyasha's thoughts, he looked down and found a little black piglet tugging something out of the bushes with its little mouth.
"Well isn't this lucky for me, now I don't have to search all over these woods for food." Inuyasha said out loud to no one in particular.
The pig looked up at him and squealed loudly, pointing to what it was carrying, P-chan, er…I mean, Ryouga noticed the weird boy with dog ears and silver hair. The boy also seemed to have claws as he reached down and picked up the piglet by his yellow and black scarf? The pig started waving its legs wildly in the air and squealing loudly.
That thing around the pig's neck struck Inuyasha odd. Why would a pig be wearing something like this? He shrugged and thought 'Oh Well. This pig will be good enough for dinner.' Inuyasha was about to turn away when he heard two girl's voices they were arguing and a loud thump. Inuyasha's ears flicked and a red blob came sailing through the trees to land right in front of him.
"What did she do that for? I never have time to explain and she hits me." The red headed girl grumbled to herself, talking quietly.
Inuyasha with his good hearing heard exactly what she was saying, but it did not matter to him. "Hey girl, watch where you're going, you almost ran into me."
"Huh?" the girl said, looking up to find the strangest dog eared boy she had ever seen, he was wearing bright red and a necklace around his neck and in his hands was… She jumped up. "Ryouga!"
P-chan squealed.
"H--hey, that's my pig." The girl said to Inuyasha.
"No it's not, I found it. It's going to be tonight's dinner." When Inuyasha said that the pig moved towards Inuyasha's head to hoof him in the face, but Inuyasha held the pig out and away.
The girl sighed, "No you don't understand, he's not really a pig. He's really a human."
Inuyasha's eyes narrowed as he pulled the pig closer to look it over. "Just what kind of an idiot do you take me for?! You stupid girl go back into the trees and leave me alone." He started to turn away when the girl jumped over his head and landed in front of him.
"Give me my pig back, or else!" She threatened, having shocked the dog-eared boy for a moment.
"Get out of my way!" Inuyasha growled
"The pig, hand him over." The girl thrust her arms out for P-Chan.
Inuyasha was fed up to here with this annoying girl, with his free hand he reached for the hilt of his katana and pulled it from the sheath it transforming into its large fang. "Stand aside girl, don't make me use this on you." Inuyasha pointed the sword at the girl, he really didn't want to hurt the girl, but she was leaving him no choice. When he saw the girl wasn't budging he swung the sword but the girl some how jumped and disappeared. Inuyasha blinked and the girl was standing on the edge of the sword, like a tight rope walker.
"Hey! Get off." Inuyasha growled at the girl.
The red headed girl's eyes narrowed and she took one step forward and kicked Inuyasha in the face, sending him flying back and the pig was released from Inuyasha's grasp. Just as the girl caught the pig in mid air, Inuyasha hit the tree behind him. Inuyasha growled and jumped up, he's had enough of this. Let that stupid girl keep that pig, narrowing his eyes, he sheathed his sword and sped off into the trees. He would be so glad not to see that girl and her pig ever again! Stupid human!
