Disclaimer: This is an act of fiction, this is a crossover between Legend of the Five Rings, a d20 product owned by Wizards of the Coast and Ranma an anime. I own few if any of the characters.
No characters of Bungie's Oni were harmed in the writing of this story. The title of this story in no way includes ownership of said copyright. A big thanks to CQB games for publishing Beyond Monks. That said, let's break a leg.
Of course, at that time a certain member of Furikan High decided to walk by.
Kuno saw Keyorn standing next to Akane and he assumed.
"No one shall take Akane from me! Prepare for battle foul knave! Face the Blue Thunder of Furikan High School!"
Kuno ran towards Keyorn, Keyorn jumped and balanced on Kuno's head.
"So the knave flies, I Tatewaki Kuno have triumphed!"
"Youngster, I do not pretend to know any details; but your overconfidence shall be your undoing." Keyorn said as he rapped his toes on Kuno's skull.
With a flip, Keyorn sent him into the koi pond. Kuno resurfaced seething, "As I see it, our contest is over. Let me help you home."
As he pulled Kuno out of the pond, Blue Thunder decided to attack.
Keyorn twisted the bokken out of His Incapableness's hands and heaved him over the wall.
"Very impressive, he shall make a nice husband for Nabiki." Soun Tendo said.
"I am flattered by your offer, but the life of a temple guard is a lonely one."
"Are you saying that my daughter is not good enough for you?" Soun asked; his battle aura flaring.
"No, Tendo-sama; your daughter is pretty, and well above a man such as myself, but I am not allowed to wed without permission from the temple." Keyorn hoped that would keep him a bachelor for now. Not that Nabiki wasn't his type; he needed to adjust to this time, and maybe actually court this girl.
"Could I ask a favor Tendo-sama?"
"Yes, what is it boy?"
He was Keyorn Hajime, a temple guard and no longer a boy!
"I was to be a healer before I began my post at the temple, do you recommend a doctor to be apprenticed to. I am afraid my skills are slightly rusty."
"Hmmm. Well you could apprentice to the local doctor, you can go with Genma tomorrow."
"Origato; Tendo-sama." Keyorn bowed low.
Hajime Keyorn followed Kasumi to his room after dinner. "Tendo-chan, Tendo-san must be lucky to have you as his wife."
Well Kasumi started to cry. "Our mother died when I was young, Soun is my father, and I am his daughter."
"I am sorry to hear that, if it comforts you; my family was slaughtered by invaders."
"Oh, how tragic; did they see justice?"
"The invaders were wiped out by the Imperial Army the next day. Although, it was fortuitous that the Army was so near, otherwise the oni would have caused more damage to our lands."
"Army? What was the Army doing there?"
"There had been reports of breakthroughs at the Kuni wastes, and the Army was investigating. They arrived quickly, but not after my parents were slain." Blood began leaking from his hands.
"Let me get you something for your hands, Hajime-san." Kasumi said scurrying off to the kitchen.
Blood dripped down his hands to the floorboards below. Keyorn thought of his excuse about temple permission, even though the temple most likely still existed; his debt of servitude to the Crab clan was repaid. Kasumi came back with the wraps for his hands, it was time to begin adjusting to this place. She was beautiful and it was true that certain Imperial customs were, for lack of a better word, un-imperial. Separating castes even though they were unclean was not fair, this family would have been lower than he, and he would protect them unto his own death.
