The Demon Incarnate :
SideStory : Demon Eyes Ranma
(I really don't want to to introductions so I'm just going to assume you know these characters)
"So, you going to try to find that imposter Kyo?" Benitora, The Shadow Master, asked, curious as to how Kyo was acting towards this new 'menace that just appeared 2 months ago. Kyo stopped in mid-step and turned around to face Benitora's sweating face with his unnerving red eyes.
"This so called imposter has nothing against me. I have no quarrel against wannabes such as them. They can act like me if they want to. It has nothing to do with me, therefore not needing my attention." Kyo said coldly. He was then hit on the head by what appeared to be a large mallet by the ever so elegant, Yuya.
"Stop being such a jerk Kyo." Yuya said as she folded her arms under her breasts. Kyo rubbed the sore spot on top of his head.
"Do you wish to die woman?" Kyo asked, while gritting his teeth. Mahiro smiled smugly as she saw Kyo angry. Lord Benitora didn't deserve that demon's cold lecture.
Kyo stood up and scoffed. He dusted himself off as he said,
"If we meet up with this so called imposter, I'll make sure he pays for imitating my name." Kyo turned around and continued to Kamayagi Town with his three 'unwanted' traveling companions. Yuya then realized something.
"Oh yeah Benitora, what did this guy call himself?" she asked, curious as to what this person's name was to even take notice of the 1000 man slayer of legends. Benitora tilted his head towards her.
" Oh, I believe his name was 'Demon Eyes Ranma', Lady Yuya. Sources say he has a long, black ponytail, he wears what appeared to be black Chinese clothes, and instead of eyes of red like our friend here, he has eyes that of purple. Anyone who comes back alive from their encounter with Demon Eyes Ranma, say his eyes were so cold, they felt as if their insides were turning into ice. Faster then a thousand horses, and more cunning then a 100 ninja's, people say this man might even be stronger then our own Demon Eyes." Benitora said, repeating what he had heard from a couple of shopkeepers and merchants. He then found himself on the end of a sword, the tip barely grazing his adam's apple. He gulped as he looked at the sword and back into the cold, red eyes of Demon Eyes Kyo.
"No one is stronger then me, not even that bastard Kyoshiro Mibu." Kyo said in a chilling voice. He sheathed his sword and scoffed.
"Lets just see if this 'Demon Eyes Ranma' even meets up to my expectations."
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"AHH! PLEASE DON'T KILL ME! PLEASE! I HAVE A FAMILY!" a portly man with brownish hair screamed out. Ryoga waved his frantically, trying to calm the restaurant keeper down. Ranma was reading through a menu, looking for something good to eat.
They both entered the restaurant, hoping they wouldn't be recognized for that little accident that happened 2 and a half months ago when Ranma accidentally let go of a ki blast when he found out he was in the wrong time, killing hundreds of people. They were now wanted fugitives, or at least Ranma was, and everyone tried to claim the 'Wanted : Dead Or Alive' Reward now posted on every building in every town, and Ranma, being who he was, nearly decapitated every person who tried to kill him, in otherwords, Overkill.
When everyone in the restaurant recognized Ranma, they all ran out of the restaurant, screaming 'someone help us!' or 'I'm going to die!' The restaurant owner was much too petrified to move and was now stuck as both Ranma and Ryoga, in his opinion, kept him hostage.
"Look all we want is some food! We can pay, see?" Ryoga said as he reached in his pocket. The restaurant owner screamed.
"PLEASE DON'T TAKE OUT A GUN! PLEASE! I DON'T WANT TO DIE!" the man cried out as he peed in his pants. Ryoga smacked his forehead, while Ranma just snickered.
"Hmm, I think I'll get the beef teriyaki bowl with some seasoned dumplings. How about you Ryoga?" Ranma asked, him not at all worried loud sirens were now heard outside the restaurant. Ryoga growled.
"Shut up Ranma, If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't be in this predicament and we would've gotten some food if you didn't keep acting the way you are!" Ryoga shouted out. Ranma just shrugged.
"The nanban mirror takes time to recharge, in 2 days, we'll be out of here and get something to eat then." Ranma said, still going through the menu. Ryoga groaned.
"2 days? That's too long!" he said, his stomach growling loudly. Ranma sighed as he put down the menu.
"Whatever, lets get out of here before those guards come to 'arrest us.'" Ranma said as he proceeded to walk out of 'The Kamayagi Restaurant'. Ryoga grunted as he hesitantly followed, wincing as his stomach started to eat itself. When both of them emerged from the restaurant, they were surrounded by what appeared to be village folk with pitchforks and torches. A couple of them had katanas and guns.
"There he is! Demon Eyes Ranma! Kill him!"
"Hey boy with bandana! Get out of the way! That is a mass murderer next to you!"
Ranma and Ryoga sweatdropped. Haven't they realized that Ryoga was Ranma's traveling companion? Ranma cleared his throat as he was about to say something.
"I assure you, I mean you no harm." Ranma said, trying to calm down the enraged mob that was intent on cutting his head off and claim it as a reward with the Emperor's lackeys.
"Get Him!"
"Cut His Head OFF!"
They all charged at Ranma, who appeared to be calm as his eyes were closed, while Ryoga jumped out of the way, knowing that Ranma could take care of himself. Ranma snapped his now purple eyes opened as a blackish barrier formed around him, pushing the townsfolk back as it got larger and larger. Countless buildings were destroyed as they were in the way of the barrier that Ranma formed. He smirked as people who were too slow were knocked unconscious from the impact of the barrier.
"Ok Ranma that's enough, turn that thing off." Ryoga said as he reappeared beside Ranma, not effected by the barrier. Ranma nodded as his eyes turned back to their original blueish-grey.
"Alright"
(BLINK)
Ranma, realizing his work was done, proceeded to leave the Kamayagi Town with Ryoga in tow. All the townsmen were unconscious from the effects of the barrier. Then, a voice called out to him.
"Hold on a minute there sir."
Ranma turned around to see a man wearing a yellow robe with a white hakama. He was 5'7 and appeared to have shoulder length black hair, a samurai sword beside him. He had a carefree expression on his face, although it did have a hint of playfulness.
"Yes, my name is Yukimura Sanada, and you are Demon Eyes Ranma, are you not?" Yukimura asked. Ranma nodded his head yes.
"And this is Ryoga Hibiki." Ranma said, turning around to meet Ryoga's face, only to find him not there. He smacked his forehead in frustration. Yukimura smiled in amusement.
"You are nothing like the rumors say you are, Mr. Ranma." He said, noticing that the stories he had heard were a bit exaggerated. The barrier was amazing, and he did have what appeared to be purple eyes, but it was most likely the lights from the force field he had formed previously. Other then that, he seemed to be a completely normal person. Ranma scoffed.
"Of course, I'm much more stronger then I look." Ranma said, not sounding a bit arrogant. Yukimura's smile widened.
"Then how about a battle if you really as strong as you say you are?" he asked. Ranma grinned. He did need to let go of some stress, and this man did seem stronger then the others who were always trying to kill him. He nodded as he got into a battle stance, the man across him unsheathing his sword. Yukimura was surprised as Ranma's eyes turned blackish-purple.
Silence-
Yukimura charged forward with superhuman speed, his sword over his head as he prepared to slice Ranma in half. He jumped high in the air as he slashed downwards. Ranma dodged to the left and karate-chopped at Yukimura's neck. Yukimura dodged and backflipped 3 times and launched himself at Ranma, using quick stabbing motions, the air-pressure alone making the air around them distorted. Ranma dodged and flipped over Yukimura's numerous attacks and slashes. Yukimura used a quick sideslash sword technique, while Ranma crouched and used a ki-powered uppercut to Yukimura's chin, causing him to fly through the air and crash into a nearby building.
Yukimura emerged from the now collapsed building with blood pouring from his mouth. He wiped the blood away as he smirked.
"You're stronger then you look Ranma." Yukimura said, his carefree smile still apparent on his face. Then his smile got wicked.
Yukimura ran forward with speed 2 times faster then before, his sword in his right hand as another sword appeared in his other hand. He launched himself forward and made a series of intricate slashes and thrusts, going so fast that he appeared to be going in slow motion. Ranma reacted by dodging with incredible speed, occasionally hitting Yukimura's chest with quick jabs. He then slammed his ki-powered palm into Yukimura's stomach causing him to lurch forward as he was pushed 10 feet away. Yukimura smiled at Ranma. He then stood up straight as he raised both swords in the air. He then began to spin. He was soon spinning with such ferocity, it caused a small tornado to appear around his body as he prepared to cut Ranma into small ribbons.
(SWOOSH!)
(SHLINK)
(THWACK!)
Ranma powered up his hands with ki as he stopped the small human tornado from advancing. Sparks were flying as Yukimura was slowly pushed back with Ranma's inhuman strength and ki. Ranma grunted as his skin was slightly grazed by the human tornado. He then gave one final push and shouted in a loud voice,
" RYUUJIN ASHIGE!"
Ranma backflipped and used a flying kick, as his foot glowed and a slightly visible form of a reddish-black dragon appeared. It's mouth opened as it roared, causing many windows to break as it advanced towards Yukimura.
(GROOOSH!)
"UGH!"
Yukimura flew back, his swords released from his grip. He crashed through several buildings before slamming into a thick brick wall. He groaned in pain as his white hakama instantly became red from the blood rapidly spilling from his wound visible on his chest. Yukimura smiled. Ranma was definitely stronger then him. A shadow loomed over him as he grimaced at the thought of being eliminated before the dream of the Sanada Juu Yuushi was fulfilled. He looked up at Ranma's cold face, his small cuts healing at an alarming rate.
"Don't underestimate me." Ranma said as he turned around and walked away. When he completely disappeared from view, Yukimura coughed one last time before falling asleep, but not before seeing a panicked silver haired boy and a long-haired ninja jump down from atop a building roof screaming, "Lord Yukimura!"
TBC.
Ranma came closer to his time then expected. Do you want me to keep writing this sidestory or continue with original context? Please R n R! Thanks for your support, Daniel Shinigami.
Ja'ne!
