As before, this is an AU so any ooc'ness on Ranma's part will be explained in the war history parts at the beginning of every chapter. Also as before this is something like my second fanfic that I have actually posted. Hopefully it's okay.

I own nothing of Ranma ½ and any resemblance to farcry is purely coincidental happenings from me playing farcry to much.

War History: Part 2

After explaining the curses, the guide took Genma and Ranma to the nearest amazon village where a tournament was currently in progress. Genma, deciding that the food looked good dug in angering the new champion of the amazons who tried to attack the panda. Before the amazon could attack though the ground split in the center of the amazon village and a demonic army once contained in a sealed dimension began to pour out.

Genma and Ranma found themselves fighting harder than they had ever fought before and, along with the amazons, retreating into the mountains gaining the aid of the Phoenix tribe which allowed them to stop the demonic advance at a heavy cost of amazon warriors. Ranma found himself carrying a dying child during the last of the retreat and thus swore to defeat the demons in honor of the dead child. At the same time the Musk Dynasty found itself under assault as well. Genma's desire to flee with Ranma to Japan was stopped by the fact that they had no way to get out of the mountains and away from the demon army.

Thus the year long Jusenkyo war began.

CHAPTER 2

A finger tapped metal as the female demon looked at what appeared to be some kind of card reader that appeared to have the purpose of opening the door. The only problem with that was that she was card deprived which meant she was either going to have to tear the door down, not a good prospect as it would let in creatures at night, or she was going to have to find another way in.

A quick leap and the gravel on the roof crunched slightly beneath her feet as she moved around looking for a way into what she hoped was a safe environment. It was a skylight that gave her what she wanted, a skylight with bullet proof glass set over a set of steel bars that was latched inside. The glass wasn't difficult to punch through and she unlatched the window from the inside pulling it up and dropping in, hoping that she wasn't making a mistake.

The metal catwalk running under the window was set over the main floor and the only sounds from the entire building that demon enhanced hearing could pick up were the beeps from computers. Feet moving silently across the metal walkway the demon slipped into one of the two rooms at the end of the walkways that ran on both sides of the main room. The stench of decay and blood reached her from the body currently slumped over a console covered in blood. It took only a moment for confirmation of actual death instead of undeath and she quickly drug the body to he nearest door and pulled it out onto the second floor deck before heading back inside.

Walking down the curving steps she found herself in a small square room that had a short hallway leading out to the main room which was full of computers. Walking into the room she looked around to be sure of the places layout just incase she needed to move fast. The area she was in was set lower than the actual floor of the building with computer consoles set along the walls of the lower floor and a larger console in the center of the floor. There was a set of steps that led up to the actual first floor and one could walk around to the buildings entrance, there was even a small railing to keep someone from stumbling off the higher floor and falling on the computers.

The far wall was dominated by a massive screen that currently had the words 'connection interrupted' blinking on it. Ranma thought about the corpse she had pulled outside and the fact that its throat had been slashed and nothing else. It was possible that the guy had been trying to warn someone about what was going on here only to get killed by someone instead. She frowned at the computer that controlled the comm. System but her computer literacy worked in only one way, pound it until it turned off.

The bathroom was a good find and Ranma stared at herself in the mirror seeing the bags under her eyes and the slightly haunted look that said her mind would eventually catch up to what she had seen and done today so far. The figure reflected in the mirror stared back at her at her maximum height of 5 foot 3 inches she wasn't to tall when compared to some of the hulking brutes that she had had to face in the Jusenkyo war. Brushing some long hairs back she hooked them behind pointed ears and tried to not see the yellow eyes or fangs her girl form had.

With a final groan of delight hot water was poured over her head changing the busty redheaded demon into a black haired boy again. The boy tossed his braided hair back over his shoulder and managed to dig up a towel to try and dry it while trying not to think about the dead…things out there.

"Zombies. I'm stuck in a bad horror movie." Ranma sighed looking around the control room and wondering if it would have been best if he had stayed in demoness form due to his much heightened speed, strength, ki abilities and other attributes. "What the hell was that thing anyway? It was as strong as I was, hell it was stronger!" The young martial artist was starting to hope that Ryoga's ability to get lost and turn up just where Ranma needed his help would manifest itself here. After the lost boy didn't turn up in ten minutes of waiting it became apparent that he wasn't going to show after all.

With a sigh the cursed martial artist just began to wonder what he could do if he ran into another one of those things. While he was strong as a guy he wasn't nearly as strong as his cursed form which hadn't been strong enough to handle that thing on pure strength alone. The boy sat down near the consoles and then leaned back drifting into a dreamland filled with things that he hoped to heck he didn't have to remember when he woke up later.

Click.

Ranma turned over in his sleep grumbling.

Click.

The martial artist uncurled to lie prone snoring loudly.

Click.

The cursed boy grunted in his sleep and made a casual swipe at the air.

Click.

Hot breath on his cheek caused Ranma to jerk awake to a panicking danger sense and a gaping maw less then two inches from his face. Luckily for Ranma he had grown accustomed to being woken up swiftly and immediately jerked his hands up and gripped the upper and lower jaws of the thing as it tried to bite down.

Arms shaking and slowly being pushed together Ranma kicked upwards throwing the thing away from him and scrambling to his feet. He bolted for the doorway hoping that it would open from the inside only to see that it was blocked by several spars of metal. He had barely a second to sense it and managed to drop to the ground to keep his head from being separated from his body. Rolling over he fired a small ki blast into the things mouth causing it to stumble back pawing at its jaws allowing Ranma to leap to the second level catwalk and jump out the skylight, the open skylight that the thing must have found a way to get open without waking him.

Bare feet touched the ground outside the building in time for him to hear a loud crash that signified the thing slamming through the wall to get to him and he ran.

Trees rushed by while ferns and other jungle plants slapped against his arms while he bolted through the foliage trying to outrun the thing behind him which he could still hear. The crashing of the thing through the jungle was enough to keep Ranma moving fast enough that he didn't even see the glinting metal and dark skinned face before he had rushed past. Gunfire echoed through the forest behind the martial artist and the tree ahead and to the right of him gained several holes before he heard the roar and a man's scream.

"Ya have to be kidding me." Ranma muttered one hour later as he brushed futilely at sweat soaked bangs while looking down at what looked to be a small village of huts made from bamboo or something much like it. The only problem he could see was the men with guns walking around down there and the two visible tripod mounted machine guns that two men were sitting near. Though it was still night-time the men had good lighting throughout the camp and Ranma didn't want to try and sneak through. The martial artist turned to go back through the jungle to get around the camp of potentially hostile men when he saw a flicker of moonlight off of something in the dark that was sniffing around close by.

Ranma turned, jumped, and ran full speed through the camp.

Though he was slower as a guy he was still fast enough to be a quick blur to the two men at the mounted machine gun positions but that didn't save him from the others in the camp who heard those men's shouts. The black haired boy dodged under one of the houses as they were set up on stilts allowing him to dodge some of the incoming fire and moved him closer to the edge of the camp and away from other men. The boy had barely turned past another house when the thundering roar of another tripod mounted machine gun opened up tearing up a house near him and stitching a line across the ground after him.

"That's right, keep moving." The man spoke the words softly while tracking the young man with the sight of his sniper rifle. Though the boy vanished into shadows every now and then he had a definite bead on where the kid was going and he had an idea that was both fun and would get rid of the problem. The gun tracked forwards and he sighted on a barrel in the boy's path waiting for him to get in just the right place before the man's finger tightened on the trigger. The sniper smirked as the boy was blasted almost twenty feet by the explosion of the nearby barrel and wondered if the others would finally pay up for that bet.

The snipers smirk dropped as a red haired girl pulled herself from the small stream and staggered forward before breaking into a run just ahead of the gunfire of the mercs chasing her. The sniper blinked then shook his head before sighting on the girl's head getting ready to fire again; just as his finger tightened on the trigger his head was jerked back and a large knife punched through his throat causing the shot to go wild. The body was kicked to the side and a set of black gloved hands closed on the rifle swinging it around to sight on the running girl before shifting to a large tank marked 'flammable' that the girl dashed by a second later.

The new sniper waited until the mercs were near the tank before pulling the trigger and blasting that section of the small outpost to splinter and ash. Before anyone could wonder about the destruction there was a loud howl and shouting from the two men running the machine guns at the entrance of the outpost. The sniper walked to the edge of the wooden tower and looked down only to stare in shock at the creature that had just reduced the two machine gunners into several small chunks of flesh before dashing into the outpost and attacking the rest of the mercs.

The shouting and screaming, as well as gunfire echoed for a short time, before the creature was finished with everyone and began to sniff around. The sniper looked at the thing through the scope of the rifle wondering why the bullets fired from the guns of the mercs just bounced off of the things invisible skin. The creatures movement towards the forest halted suddenly and it spun to look up at the tower and the person examining it through the sniper rifle. The sniper slowly lowered the gun then dropped it before raising hands showing no weapons; the growling snort from the creature had the surprising sound of derision before the thing turned and dashed into the jungle.

A black gloved hand pulled out a radio "This is unit 3 we've got a problem."

What kind of a problem unit 3?

"One of the creatures is loose, looks to be a class A at least. Also there appears to be an augment on the island, she needed some help getting through the camp but considering that she survived a large explosion without any really visible wounds she must be pretty powerful."

Try to avoid contact with the creature, and stay out of the way of the augment until we have verified her allegiance. Unit 2 out.

The woman sighed as she looked at the jungle "Why do I always get the hard jobs."

Ranma dashed through the jungle at a much faster clip now that she was in cursed form even though she was feeling a sharp twinge of pain from her left leg. The gunfire she had heard was over and she could hear the creature somewhere behind her crashing through the jungle trying to catch up to her. She had no idea how the tank had exploded behind her since she was in no way going to try and kill humans when she could avoid it by running into the jungle instead. Though a portion of her mind was trying to make her accept the guilt of leading that thing into the camp.

Trees and ferns broke and she found herself standing in a small clearing with a small dirt path leading off into the jungle, it looked like it would head towards the communications station at the docks, and a concrete structure in the center. The structure only stuck up above ground about eight feet and there were stairs leading down to a door that most probably led to a small complex that used the massive metal comm. tower that extended from the top of the concrete structure quite a long ways up. It suddenly came to Ranma that there was most probably another door and stairs on the other side of the only twenty foot long building and she hit on an idea.

The thing burst from the jungle to see its query rushing down steps and hearing the loud bang of a metal door slamming which enraged the thing more as it tried to catch the query that had somehow always managed to get ahead of it. The things thoughts had surprisingly started to become more lucid as it chased the strange being that had been first female then male then female again. Part of those thoughts had said that humans shouldn't be able to do that just as part of the thing had somehow found an understanding of the language used by those two-legs with the strangely loud objects.

'guns' The thought flickered through its mind as it howled and charged the doorway and its mind tried to understand how it had known what the men were holding and using just as it tried to understand how it knew they were wearing. 'clothes'

Ranma darted into the room marking that it had a set of stairs inside that led to a small room filled with computers before throwing open the other door and rushing up the steps. She leapt forward twisting around bringing her hand around just as the door at the base of the stairs gave way with a screech of torn metal and a form of burst free howling with fury.

"Happo Star Blast!"

The star of crimson energy slammed into the things chest and knocked it back into the building before detonating. The blast blew out the bottom of the building and blasted the top upwards before letting it collapse downwards on top of the thing covering it with concrete and metal. Ranma's dash for the jungle was interrupted as something large and metal impacted the back of her skull with crushing force causing her to stumble and then fall. Blackness and floating stars moved through her vision as she tried to push herself up and failed.

The soft thump, thump, thump was heard getting louder and soon it swept past kicking up dust before settling down to her left. Ranma again tried to get up but collapsed back as darkness started to seep in from the edge of her vision though she was still conscious when she saw several pairs of combat boots tromping across the dirt. The men came to a stop and Ranma managed to look up enough to see that the men looked like the ones in that small village only they had body armor on and the man in front of the others was dressed in different colors.

The large man in front of the others carried two pistols instead of a machinegun like the others and wore black pants with a red t-shirt bearing a strange symbol. The other men were dressed in shades of green and brown and were talking only to the large man who seemed to be less than pleased while arguing into a small earphone and mike set.

"I don't care if you want it in one piece it killed twenty of my men which means if you do get it back its going to be in several pieces."

The man looked annoyed "No I don't know who she's working for, it's obvious she's an augment or she would have been dead already. Okay, okay I'll bring her in but you owe me extra for this; I don't like hauling around dumb animals."

One of the men near the ruined building and tower looked to the man "Hey Krauser check this out, I'm getting a fading reading from the implant."

The large man she had first seen, now almost obscured by the black flooding her vision turned "She killed GAX? Hehe maybe she aint just a dumb animal after all." He looked around then turned to the men "Alright everyone pack it up we're moving out."

Ranma felt herself lifted off the ground and heard the sound of chopper rotors just before she blacked out.

Descriptions:

Spring of drowned female wolf demon: The spring has never been accessed by anyone but Ranma and it is somewhat a good thing. Ranma in demon form is more prone to violence and rash judgment though she has a sharp tactical mind she is willing to almost throw her life away before really starting to think of a plan of action. The remnants of the demons mind give Ranma a somewhat jaded view of the world and he began to act somewhat different after receiving the curse itself. Though Ranma is still reluctant to take a life unless it is demonic or undead, his somewhat darker view of the world makes him more dangerous than he would be normally but he also is very loyal to those he considers allies.
