The Demon Incarnate :
SideStory 3 : Demon Eyes Ranma
(I really don't want to to introductions so I'm just going to assume you know these characters)
Ranma was moaning in his sleep, obviously having nightmares if not the distraught expression on his face as he twisted and turned in his sleeping bag.
Nodoka, covered in what appeared to be her own blood, called out to her son in his dreams.
"You failed me son…."
Ranma's face contorted with extreme sadness and depression.
"If only you saved me…."
His face then changed to that of fear and apprehension.
Nodoka's face seem to explode and tear apart, causing a new face to appear before Ranma. It was Naraku. He was smiling wickedly as he chuckled. His gaze seem to see right through Ranma's soul as he roared out,
"DIE!"
"AHHH!"
Ranma sat upstraight, his face covered in sweat as his hands were clenching so hard that caused blood to draw out. He seem to have a slight dazed look in his eyes as he realized it was morning. Snapping out of his stupor, he started to pack his camping supplies, an emotionless expression on his face.
As he got back on the road to another town, he looked up in the sky, his eyes filled with unshed tears as he whispered outloud,
"Happy Birthday, Mom."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Kyo, wait a second."
"Kyo!"
"KYO, STOP!"
(BONK!)
Kyo 'oofed' as he was bashed by a large mallet. Tears threatened to spill from his eyes as he turned around to glare at the person who hit him on the head, a reddish battle-aura surrounding him. Yuya grunted unladylike as she said,
"I told you to stop."
His eyes narrowed, his battle-aura slightly getting bigger. Benitora took one step back. Kyo snorted as his battle-aura winked out of existence. Ignoring them, he continued his way towards his destination. Yuya caught up to him and asked,
"Kyo! Where you off to in such a hurry?"
Kyo just said nowhere, not paying much attention to her. Yuya huffed in frustration, realizing it was hopeless to try to communicate with him. She ran in front of him, walking backwards, matching Kyo's footwork step by step.
"Stop ignorin-Oww!" Yuya cried out as someone bumped into her from behind. She fell forward into Kyo's arms, trying to see who knocked her down. She looked around until her gaze fell upon a man with black Chinese clothes
and a ponytail. He scoffed before walking past them. She stood herself up straight and yelled,
"Hey buster, who do you think you are!"
The man turned around, his face devoid of any emotion. His eyes seem to scan the group, before his eyes settled on Kyo. The two seem to stare into each other's eyes. All seem to be normal, well that is until the man's eyes shone purple.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Kyo smirked.
"I've found you, Demon Eyes Ranma." He said.
Benitora acted first as he catapulted into the air, his naginata in his hand.
"Shadow Strike!"
His body blurred as he formed into 7 different images, all falling towards Ranma, naginata pointed downwards. Ranma dodged all 7 strikes, flipping high in the air as he fired a small ball of ki to each one of the Benitoras'. The absolute last one cried out in pain as the ball of ki tore into his skin, the other imitations flickering from view.
"Benitora!" Yuya yelled out, her voice full of worry. Mahiro used this small moment of distraction as she launched 4 small daggers at Ranma, confident that it would hit the mark.
Ranma saw the daggers approaching and leaned sideways as they sped past him. Mahiro opened her mouth in shock, wondering how she had missed. Ranma smashed his foot into the ground causing the area where Mahiro was to collapse. Mahiro snapped out of her slight daze to find her feet stuck in the ground, both in between large cracks in the ground. She tried to pull out and suddenly lost her balance, falling backwards. Because of her slight disadvantage, she was like a turtle with its back to the ground, unable to get up.
Ranma smiled, appreciating his work before a fist hit him in the back. He lurched forward, lessening the damage to his back as he rolled forward. He stood up and looked around to see the smug look of Kyo.
Demon Eyes, like me. Ranma thought as he launched himself forward, his fists blurring, hitting Kyo in the chest, face, and stomach. He flipped backwards as Kyo fell to one knee, a slight weakened expression on his face. He stood up and unsheathed his sword. It shone red and radiated extreme amounts of power.
Definitely not an ordinary sword. Ranma thought. Kyo did a couple of sword slashes, warming up a bit. He walked forward, his flip-flips making 'click clack' sounds. He gripped his muramasa harder as he started to sprint, unleashing a quick forward stab. Expecting this to be over already, Kyo didn't expect Ranma to be so fast as he jerked to the side before moving himself forward to plant his knee into the samurai's stomach. Ranma jumped back, then spin-kicked Kyo in the back, sending him onto the ground, however, Kyo was not done as he stood back up again. He spit out blood and growled.
He charged using a diagonal slash with incredible speed, and Ranma, not expecting such speed from this samurai, could only cry out in pain as the sword caused a large gash near his stomach. He fell to the ground, not moving for a while as Kyo smiled triumphantly. He could only grunt in frustration as the man with the pigtail stood back up.
Ranma groaned a bit in pain as his wound glowed purple and started to stitch itself together. Albeit hating Naraku himself, he had to admit having his genes did its advantages. Incredible strength, extremely high endurance, unbelievable toughness, unparallel speed, and superhuman healing. He sighed as his wound disappeared, and realized if it weren't for his powers, he would be dead from blood loss.
He snapped out of his stupor as he realized he was about to be sliced in half. He dodged sideways, Kyo's blade missing his flesh as it tore into his leather jacket. Kyo stabbed and slashed, while Ranma dodged and weaved, a couple making it through his defence, allowing small cuts started to appear on Ranma's arms and torso. Realizing he wouldn't last much longer, Ranma countered Kyo's slash by stepping on the flat of his blade, making Kyo lose his balance as he fell forward and into Ranma's knee. He staggered back, still clutching his sword, an angry expression matching Ranma's confident.
Kyo spit out blood once again as he smiled wickedly. He charged forward again, letting loose with a series of staccato thrusts that were to fast for ordinary humans to see. Ranma found himself pushed backwards as the area around him started to blow away from the power behind those sword thrusts.
Ranma realized he had no chance to attack back, so he allowed Kyo to stab him a few times, for a moment of distraction. Stifling back a cry of pain, he took this chance as he shot his fist out, blazing with large amounts of ki.
"RYUUJIN GENKETSU!"
Kyo's body roared backwards, making him smash through many trees and boulders. Kyo's body seem to undulate as he rolled viciously on the ground, unable to stop it's momentum. A few seconds later, Kyo stopped into a halt. He stood up unsteadily, often lurching forward and backwards, his determination the only thing keeping him conscious. His eyes shone bright red with fury and hatred. He breathed in deep, coughing a bit as his lungs threatened to tear apart. A cold, yet calm façade expression on his face as a large red aura appeared around him.
His sword in his right hand, he held up his free hand and made a bit of ki appear on his index and middle fingers. He then began running the tip of his fingers across the blade of his muramasa, causing the trail to glow with ki.
On the other side of the long battlefield, Ranma charged himself up with ki, his hands glowing with black ki as he prepared to use his strongest technique to wipe out his opponent. He originally intended to use this on Naraku, but he realized he would not get alive out of here with using 'it'.
"Mumyou Jinpu Ryu : Satsujin Ken."
"From the Deepest Pits of Hell, from the darkest of all true demons, grant me the power to annihilate my foe."
Both combatants closed their eyes. Ranma outstretched both hands, palms outwards, Kyo held his blade over his head, ready to unleash his most powerful technique. Both their eyes suddenly flashed open, Kyo's bright red to Ranma's dark purple. They Both shouted out,
"Mizuchi!"
"Shikyou Jigoku Kakumei!" (1)
Nothing else was heard over the large roaring of both ki blasts. Not even Yuya's cry of desperation nor Ryoga's blatent catchphrase of 'WHERE AM I!'. All went bright as both enormous ki strikes clashed with one another, a large explosion occurred afterwards, smoke and fog covering the entire area.
When the smoke cleared, a person stood up from the ground, most likely the victor of this bloody battle between enemies.
TBC.

Sorry for cliffhanger, couldn't think of any other way of ending it. Suggestions are greatly appreciated, Thanks for your Support, Daniel Shinigami.
