Darkness Calls

Disclaimer: I do this for fun and to amuse my readers. Or if I have them my fans. Demon God of Chaos looks around Do I have fans? I don't know. Hmm maybe if I wait for a few reviews telling me that I have fans then I might get some. Ah well back to the main topic.

Ranma's going to fight against the phoenix God. His Master isn't too pleased at that.

I don't think I'll tell more in this small disclaimer. Just read it.

Revenge of the Sith part 2

Ranma looked at the fathers in front of him and said. "So you want ME to go and save her?"

The ME in the sentence was said with a great deal of sarcasm in it and the father's smiles never faltered as they nodded and said. "Yes. Now go and save your true fiancé."

Ranma had problems reigning in his anger at the two morons sitting in front of him looking at him like sheep too dumb to know that a wolf was near. How he wished to just go and kill those motherfuckers so that he would finally get some peace. He and Ranko had been making plans for what they would do in a few weeks.

The first thing they would do was be making some profit of doing construction work. Apparently Nabiki would take pictures of Ranma when he was asleep so she would be dealt with. Ranko didn't like it that there were pictures made of her body. While it still looked like Ranma it had some of her characteristics.

Nabiki would be dealt with through manipulation. But now to the task at hand. First they would have to go to China where they would hopefully find the ignorant foolish brat who was Ranma's fiancé as decided by his father.

Ranma groaned as he was once again trudging towards Jusenkyo. This time he would once again have to save someone and this time he was getting really annoyed at the stupid bitch who dared call herself his fiancé. There was only one woman for him and that was at the moment his master.

Inside Ranma's head his thoughts were heard quite clear by Ranko who just gave the mental blush of a thousand watt and then decided to go and mess with his head a little.

Ranma watched as a kid of around 5 years old came at him. The kid had some weird jewel hanging on his forehead and immediately as Ranma scanned the child he noticed that the child seemed to be immersed in the Dark Side of theForce. Ranma grinned and watched as the idiots who had come with him talked to the child and allowed it to lead them up the mountain regardless of what the Jusenkyo guide had said.

Ranma was about to go laughing as he saw through the deception and saw what the child truly was. An experiment of the Sith which had gone a little wrong. Ranko still recalled the day that she managed to create the bird creature which possessed the Force in huge amounts and let it burn around itself immediately making a large table turn into molten steel and other metals.

She had named it Saffron after a fallen warrior who had actually managed to give her a good fight. Sadly the man had been too rooted in the Light Side to be persuaded to join the Dark Side. She sighed as she had disposed of the remains and then had started on planning her eventual takeover of one of the planet's major cities through lying and cheating and other depraving actions.

Ranma zoned out for a few moments and put on his mask of ignorance, stupidity and bravery. He just came back into himself and he looked at a large egg which sat underneath the phoenix tap. He remembered the kid and what had happened to Akane and looked at her doll. He absolutely loathed the girl but he would have to do this to keep up his cover.

He watched as the tap fell of its socket and cracked the egg. Then in a large congregation of fire the phoenix rose from his ashes and its fiery wings stuck out from his back he turned around and Ranma felt incredibly stupid standing there staring at it. Oh well he would save Akane and get the hell out of there. He looked at the surroundings and saw that the people that had come with him were retreating. He fingered the cylinder at his waist and decided to show off some Sith Power.

"Foolish Mortal how dare you intrude upon the awakening of the Phoenix!" Saffron shouted at him but he wasn't affected by it one bit, deciding to make sure that this little birdy went down.

"A phoenix… doesn't live long enough. I though you should know this Saffy-chan…" His lightsaber made itself present by letting the red bar of light slide out of the cylinder. A grin was on his face as he looked at the Phoenix God and said. "Do you remember your old Master, Saffy-chan? I've brought her here and soon she will be revived. Soon I shall be able to dispose of those who dared to mold my life into what they wanted and those that would enslave me shall all feel my rage."

He swung the lightsaber, making the hum of the blade be heard in the area as the Phoenix looking at the mortal who wielded the same weapon as his former mistress. "So you have a connection with my mistress. And you probably have slain her too. You are nothing but a snivelling and pathetic Jedi, Mortal!" Ranma could almost feel his stomach contract at hearing the bird proclaim that he was one of the pathetic Jedi, those who had fallen so easily to the Dark Side that they shouldn't have been named as protectors of good…

"You think I am merely some pathetic Jedi? Have you no feeling for the Dark Side anymore, Saffy-chan or are you just force-blind all the time? I've begun training my apprentice already, as I am Darth Kaos, the Dark Lord of the Sith, trained by your Master, Darth Ranko." Ranma's face was twisted with the hatred that he was calling upon. All the hatred he could amass by simply thinking about his father made him feel it pouring through his body. He looked at the phoenix and said. "I think you would be surprised to know that I've been working on destabilising the government. I have begun making some effort to manipulate several local gangs into doing whatever I want them. They simply know me as Dark Man."

Saffron felt the Dark Side wash over him as he watched the young man look at him, the blue eyes going slightly yellowish as Ranma immersed himself fully within the Dark Side. Ranma looked at the Phoenix god and said, "Now we got to do battle, if not for show, but to satisfy those who came with me." Ranma pointed towards where the others had gone to and Saffron smiled a little smile and said.

"Well then let us do battle… Master." Ranma grinned and channelled the Dark Side through his hands, allowing an arc of Force lightning to come out of his hands and hit the phoenix god who recoiled when struck by the lightning. Ranko could feel pride well up within her as she saw her apprentice holding his own against his opponent, using the Dark Side.

Ranma ducked under a wave of fire being sent at him and used Force push at the Phoenix, nimbly throwing the birdman against the wall. Ranma reached out with his anger at the world and clenched his hand, willing the force to do the move that he had seen performed in a vision on some unfortunate soul. The vision had been cast in darkness, leaving only the dark figure, looking like some samurai in black and a man who looked at the strangely dressed man. The man who was looking scared at the black warrior and the samurai-like man simply extended his hand and the other man choked, like invisible hands were holding the throat and constricting it, cutting off all air. Ranma watched as the body was held in the air for a bit, then fell to the ground with a dull thud.

Ranma made the force make invisible hands and tightened them around the birdman's throat. A phoenix warrior who came flying towards them, screeching something about her Lord watched the choking Phoenix God and Ranma had decided he had enough. He released Saffron form the Force Choke and then he looked at the birdman and said. "I trust you know your place, Saffy-chan?"

The Phoenix god looked at Ranma, then said. "Master…What is thy bidding, Master?" The voice carried towards the phoenix warrior who screeched something about Lord Saffron being better then this mortal. "Shall I eradicate her existence, Master?" The question was asked and Ranma shook his head, not really caring for the girl but he had to keep up appearances.

"No."

The Phoenix looked at Ranma and then bowed his head in resignation. His master had come once again and he would obey, for he was loyal to his Master. Even though his Master had trained this child in the force he would still show some small amount of resistance since this was not his Master.

"Guide me to Jusenkyo… I need to take a bath." Ranma had hatched a plan in his mind by using the spring of drowned woman once again he would be able to create a body for Ranko through a manipulation of the Force. He watched as the Phoenix took flight and then was prompted to just hold on. Ranma jumped onto the back of the Phoenix and Saffron carried him towards the springs, the doll that was Akane still within Ranma's pocket. Ranma almost forgot about it and then looked at the dragon tap and then manipulated the Force t throw a boulder at it, shattering it and sending water into the air. Ranma watched it and then threw the doll at it with all his might, soaking it in the pool and not looking back at it as it grew into a naked Akane.

Saffron landed next to a pool which was marked as the pool of the drowned yeti riding a bull while grabbing an eel and Ranma snorted in amusement. He looked at all the springs and sensed which one was the one which turned him into a female. He looked at it and then jumped over to it, sitting down next to it, looking into the water, not sending any thoughts to his Mistress. He looked at the waters then stepped into it, his foot touching the water.

(What are you doing!)

Her voice was hear in his mind and he simply smiled outwardly before letting himself fall forwards, letting the cool water all around him as he submerged himself in the pool of hot water that was still the pool of the Drowned Girl. He could feel his Mistress's Force presence and separated it from his, feeling the curse on the spring generate a body for her and feeling his curse be lifted from his body, making him full male once he surfaced again. He looked at the body and felt the presence of his mistress disappear from his mind. He looked at her and then surfaced from the water, drawing her with him. Her face was one of surprise and she seemed happy at the moment and he helped her to the ground, taking care not to hurt her. The woman could hurt him gravely even without a lightsaber.

She looked at him, her eyes roaming over her body and a delicate hand reached out and touched his soaked clothes and then she spoke for the first time in millennia outside his mind.

"Ranma-kun… Arigatou!"

She hugged him, the feeling of breasts against his body being alluring and he gave in, knowing that some comfort would be needed. He had been repressing his sexual feelings for a long time, knowing that there would be none who were worthy for them in this existence. He loved his Mistress, for guiding and teaching him, making him stronger every day he used the Force. He looked at her and said.

"Mistress… I missed you so much… Now you are finally here, with me…"

Her eyes softened, no hatred within them at the moment. "Ranma-kun… you have no idea how glad you've made me. But could you give me a few clothes? It's getting rather chilly here." Within a second she was presented with a red shirt and a pair of black pants. Ranma had undressed immediately when he had heard her plea for clothes and was now standing there, naked as the day he had been born. He simply called a new set of clothes towards him by using the force and rapidly dressed himself, taking no great care for decency seeing as Ranko had already seen everything there was to him. He looked as the girl dressed herself, then looked at him and said.

"I even have my lightsaber with me… Saffy-chan why don't you take us back to the mountain again? I think Ranma-kun would need to defeat you in a battle which will make it look like your 'evil' is extinguished forever and you will be reborn…"

Ranma looked at the birdman, grinning at him and said. "Shall we continue this, Saffy-chan? I think that Mistress Ranko would like to get away as fast as she can. I'll see you in Japan, Ranko-sama."

Ranma looked at his mistress and she flung her arms around his neck, kissing him with intensity that was unexpected.

"Ranma-kun, please call me Ranko-chan. You've risen past me, becoming my equal. The name fashioned for my apprentice no longer belongs to you. Like Lord Revan before me, you shall be named Darth Ranma, in honour of me, Darth Ranko."

She bowed to him once, then jumped off towards the general direction of the next city, where she could swim or arrange other transportation to Japan.

Ranma looked at the birdman and a wave of Force Lightning came out of his hands. "I think we have a battle to finish, Saffy-chan. Let's just finish this quickly, shall we?"

Ranma's lightsaber activated once more and then he began to swing it at the birdman, hitting the arms and slicing them off, making them burn up form the heat that the Phoenix was generating.

From the perspective of the people that had come with him, Ranma looked like a small spec which was fighting against a burning bird. The phoenix's heat made the pools of Jusenkyou boil and bubble, Ranma not even wanting to notice them. He was focused on slicing Saffron to bits. Finally he decapitated the burning Phoenix and the heat immediately stopped coming from Saffron, the burning subsiding immediately as the body collapsed to the ground where it landed with a dull thud and started to burn with a fire so hot that it turned the sand on which it had fallen turn into glass.

Ranma condensed the hatred, feeling satisfied that the cycle of rebirth had been set once again. He looked a the burning person and simply stood there, tears coming to his eyes due to the heat and finally there was an egg. The Phoenix warrior came to him, a look of worry on her face.

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO LORD SAFFRON!"

He smiled sadly, acting like he had done something horrible. "I killed him… I killed a being… He didn't have to die but I killed him…" He looked at her, knowing that she would want to care for her lord first of all. The egg cracked and a small child was seeing within it.

The phoenix went over to the small child and picked it out of the egg, taking care of it gently and said. "You had the audacity to kill Lord Saffron! You…" At that moment did Saffron choose to speak.

"Master! Kiima, bow to him, bow to my Master…"

It seemed that Saffron had retained all mental faculties ever since he had been turned into an infant and Kiima bowed to Ranma, not knowing why her Lord called him His Master.

"Saffron… I hope that we will have an alliance… Otherwise your creator, as well as the creator of your species won't be pleased… She has waited so long to be released from her prison and I have set her free from her eternal torment…"

The infant nodded and said. "Kiima will take care of me for the time being., seeing as I am an infant still and a treaty will be made between you, Darth Ranma, Lord of the Sith and our people. After all it would be ungrateful of me not to help my creator, now would it?"

Ranma simply smiled and said. "I'll see you later." With that he began to run towards the NWC in hopes of finding them once again. He looked at them and then jumped and landed right next to his pandafied father "Yo Pops, I beat the big birdie. Is Akane-chan alright?"

The rest of the proceeding was very much a blur to him. He remembered getting punched away by Akane for being a baka and he grinned inwardly. He was launched far enough to crash straight into the ground and leave a long trench. When he got up he looked around, things still a little bit blurry to him.

"You really don't waste time annoying the little brat, do you Ranma-kun?"

Ranko's voice came from his left and he looked as the Sith stood there, dressed in black entirely, probably having relieved someone of his black vest and cloak.

Ranma waited patiently for the rest of the NWC to arrive, Ranko keeping him company and also changing her style a little bit so she would be just a pretty redheaded girl to everybody else. Her braid was undone and her hair hung loose over her shoulders. Ranma could hear the NWC complain about needing to find Ranma once again, Ranma being spat like it was a curse by several of the members of the NWC.

Ranma scowled and then looked at Ranko and said. "I'll see you later then.." With a small sprint he rejoined the NWC and he had to endure their banter, making him even angrier as they accused him of fleeing form a battle, something which the mask of Ranma would have found dishonourable and Ranma just acted like he was irritated by it while inwardly he seethed, vowing to take his anger out on everyone

He looked at the girl he was supposed to get married to and he could not help but feel the revulsion well up. The sight of Akane in a wedding dress was pretty cute if you didn't know what the girl's persona was. The anger that he possessed made him into a lethal weapon while her anger simply was destruction.

"And do you wish to wed this woman?"

Ranma's attention moved towards the priest, his eyes narrowing. He detected the presence of his master through the Force and he gave a short answer, as was expected of him… " Allow me to think of the benefits of this marriage…." He was stalling, so that his mistress could arrive. She had promised to be there when he was going to get wed to the bitch. He could sense her within the room, then looked at the priest once again. "The only reason why I should marry Akane is because my dad asked her dad to marry me to her… something which he had done to multiple girls…" A smile was on his face, his eyes still narrowed. " And that's one of the reasons why I must say no to this marriage…"

Ranko appeared right behind him, him appreciating the gesture. He turned around, Ranko speaking at that moment. "Ranma-kun…. Shall we proceed?"

He sank to his knees, a smile on his face as he held his head down, a gesture of submission to her. "What is thy bidding, My Mistress?"

Ranma has sworn his allegiance to the Sith! For the next chapter there will be chaos! And carnage!
