Author Notes: For those of you that Review. Thanks, It was due to one such review that I got new title. The history of Rayearth X-men was just that Rayearth and X-men. But hey I wanted to throw in my two cents in and try a three way crossover. So yes This is my first major crossover that has not one but two other series.
And No DN. Angel is not a part of the story Ranma left it as a joke so no one but Nabiki and Kasumi would know who did the break in.
Warning: the first part of this story, will tell the tale after Nodoka and Kasumi was attacked. However
the NWC are Out of character. Now I like Akane, People tend to go over broad with her.
The Interlude has nothing to do with the main story. Per se.
Interlude: Six Months ago
Nermia, Japan Tendo dojo.
Ten days after Ranma Disappearance.
The day Kasumi was released from the hospital wasn't a good one. The young woman skin was pale having lost a lot of blood, and her eyes where blood shot form all the crying. At Nodoka Funeral it wasn't as warm with the guest as it should have been.
Kasumi kept quiet watching as it went by. That is until she felt a gentle hand on her shoulder. She smiled for the first time in days. "Hey kid, long time no see." An man who looked no older then in his late 30's said. He had his black hair in an odd hair style. Blue eyes that looked like they seen a lot of things.
Kasumi smiled. "Hello Logan-Sama. Its been too long." She said back."How is Jubilee and Katherine these days?" Logan looked at Kasumi, then led her away from the others. "Im sorry An attack in several locations kept us from Picking Ranma up." Logan said. Kasumi smile dropped. "I see. How bad was it?" Logan took in a deep breath.
"Pretty bad. Magneto is planing something big it's only a matter of time before we figure it out."
Kasumi looked at him. "Auntie Nodoka..." Logan stopped her. "I Know. That's why Im here. After that Im going after Ranma." Kasumi looked up.
"Take me with you. There too many bad memories here, Except for Nabiki my family is unbearable to live with." Logan sadly shook his head. "I'm sorry Im on a racon mission if I can't fine Ranma In the next 24 hours I have to go back. Summers wants all X-men at the Mansion."
Kasumi looked at Logan.
"Oh no you don't." Logan said as he saw the look in Kasumi's eyes. "But you know I can help."
"No and that's final. the three of you caused enough trouble." Logan said with a smile.
"Aww Come on Wolvie, It'll be just like old times." Kasumi said. "We may need your help in the future but for right now you rest." Logan said with an " And I mean it." look. Which caused Kasumi to shrug.
"Sure. If you do something for me first." And so Kasumi told Logan everything that has happen since she left Xavier School.
Near by a Panda felt a sudden chill going down his spine. Nabiki was looking for her sister the cemetery bought back a lot of bad memories and the soon she gets her sister and leaves the better. This funeral was a joke. She could tell that Mr. Saotome was faking his tears.
Truth be told she over heard him talking about giving His ex-wife a very cheap burial. Nabiki was mad.
So Nabiki called in all favors, and collected money from anyone who owed her money. Two days later Nodoka was given the best. Too bad it was wasted, when that fat bastard showed up claiming that he loved her.
She had yet to tell him the bad news. Nodoka will left everything to her father incase something had happen to her and Ranma. Nabiki smiled at that. It was ashamed she didn't have time to tell Ranma about it Akane had the mixer of hatred and sadness on her face. Hated for what Ranma did do sadness for his lose. Was it wroth hated mutants?
"HE WHAT?" Yelled a new voice. Everyone turned a round to see a man no older then in his late 30's or 40's walk up to Genma Saotome. "You Genma Saotome?" He asked.
"Yes." The idiot said back. The Next thing Genma knew was unbelievable pain. "How see here you are you?" Soun Tendo said. Ready to come to his friends aid. Kho lon looked at the man and smiled. "Hello Logan How long has it been?" The aged Amazon said. "Not long enough. Excuse me but I must pound someone." Logan said walking up to a panda that Held a sign that read 'Be kind to animal week.'
Logan pretended to be dumb then Grabbed the Panda and started slapping him around. " YOU FOOL." Logan said. "You have no Idea what you've done when you taught Ranma the Neko ken." Logan yelled at the panda. 'It was for the boy own good, not that it matted since he used his mutant powers to learn everything.' The sign read. Then Genma world exploded into even more pain. Logan was snarling now. "He has latent mutant powers. You fool He learn everything you taught him and more." With that Logan throw Genma hard into the ground. In a flash Three metal claws exploded from the back of Logan hands.
Everyone but Kho lon and Kasumi gasped. Logan once again grabbed Genma and picked him up and off the ground. "Give me one good Reason why I shouldn't skin you." Kasumi stepped up and placed a hand on Logan's shoulder. "Logan, Its not wroth it. Having him disown Ranma as his son was probably the best thing to have happen to Ranma." Kasumi said gently.
"I...I don't believe it your, your Wolverine aren't you?" Nabiki asked. "What's it to ya kid." Logan said sheathing his claws. Nabiki said nothing then it hit her. "Your Ranmas Grandfather Aren't you." Logan Nodded. "Thats why Im here. To find him before more hunters attack. But I only have a short time. Kasumi, You should tell your father. I have to go. As for you." Logan said as he kicked Genma. "You better hope we never cross paths again." Then as sudden as he came he left.
Tendo Dojo, One Hour Later.
The Tendo family, Genma, and The rest sat around the table. Kasumi went up stairs to get something. That was over an hour ago, the truth was she was packing and getting something out
that she haven't worn in over a year and a half. Just before Ranma come to the Tendo family.
She wasn't sure how her father would handle this... Hence the reason she was packing. Sighing gently, she pulled on her boots and wrapped a light black duster around herself. She reached behind her and pulled her damp, light brown hair into a loose ponytail; she would have to remember to dry it later tonight. She slid a yellow belt around her waist and fastened it with a click.
Under her duster and yellow belt she wore a black jumpsuit with red seams coursing all along its sides, which formed a discrete "x" shape. She slid black sunglasses on, pushing them up the bridge of her nose, transformed.
These Sunglasses was specially made, able to give off info red and night vision if needed, don't let the size fool you. She was debating weather to put on he gloves. She looked in the full length mirror, and liked what she saw. Then she sat on her bed. Thinking.
Downstairs
"What do you think Kasumi wants to tell us about, and Kho lon how do you know Wolverine?" Nabiki asked. The aged elder looked at the middle Tendo. "It classified Information child." She said.
Akane was looking elsewhere, deep in though as something hit her. "Nabiki what was Aunties maiden name?" She asked. Nabiki looked at her baby sister, also in thought. "Im not sure. I do know she came from a rich family."
"Yoshida." a Voice said from the stairs." Her name was Nodoka Yoshida." Everyone looked to see Kasumi standing in the doorway. At their confused looks Kasumi took a bow. "Sorceress, Leader of X-men Black at your service." Then she looked thoughtful. "Well ex-leader of the team." Again everyone blinked.
With a deep sigh. She sat down and took off her glasses. "Father do you remember when I went to America?" Soun nodded. With a smile She calmly stated. "Father I'm a Mutant." After she said those words she had to look down because her father fainted.
"You, you can't be I mean." Akane started. "The pervert, I can understand but not you."
"And, why is that little sister?" Kasumi asked. Akane Sweat dropped.
"Because Mutants are evil, and your as far from evil as they come." Was her little sisters reply.
Kasumi looked at her sister. A sad and hurt look was in her eyes. "Even after everything I done for you? Akane I tried to be there for you. As both a sister and a mother, but your temper, you rude behavior to the members of the opposite sex. And now you think Im Evil?" HOW COULD YOU?" Kasumi broke down. Akane looked at her sister.
'How can she say though things? Ranma must have done something to her I don't think she's evil just because she's a ...' Her thoughts trailed off. Her eldest sister, the kind gentle Kasumi was a mutant. 'Which meant she was evil but why? Why her?' Akane wanted to cry. How could she believe such lies? Akane glared at her father.
Both Nabiki and Kasumi knew what was coming next. " FATHER NO BAKA!" Then she kicked her father heads.. Soun woke up the moment her foot touched his head. "Oh to think My eldest is a Mutant. Your Mother would be ashamed of you." Kasumi got up and slapped her father across the face. "Mother would be more ashamed of you. Oh Sure a mid was called in to help But the poor dear left in a break down. GROW UP FATHER." Kasumi glared at Soun, daring him to yell back. "Or should I leave again? For good?"
"No Kasumi, We'll leave."
"Yeah Me Too."
Kasumi smiled at her family. "Wait I have a better idea. Father. I challenge you to an HONORABLE combat in the family anything goes School of Martial arts. No Powers, No Tricks and Defiantly no weapons." Soun look at his daughter in shock. "But Kasumi, you don't know how to fight in the Family art." Kasumi smiled at her father. "Does it matter Father?" Soun was sweating bullets. "Akane will..."
"No Father, I challenge you." Kasumi cut him off. "How do I know you'll wont use your powers?" Soun asked. Kasumi pointed to her ear ring. "See this? Its an inhibitor. It shuts off my powers." Kasumi said in a calm voice. "Wow so thats way those mutant hunting freaks never tried to find you." Akane said. Kasumi nodded. "Nabiki draw up a contract please." The former X-man said.
After Nabiki left to work up a contract Akane looked at Kasumi. "Im sorry Sister, I didn't mean what I said." Akane said though tear stains eyes. Kasumi took your young sister in her arms and held her. You was just misguided Thats all." Kasumi said staying at her father.
Soun sweat dropped.
At this point Know one seemed to have notice that the Amazons had left the building.
Two hours later Nabiki came back down the stair hold two pieces of paper.
"Okay this one is for Dad and This one is for Kasumi." Nabiki said passing out the contracts to the owners. "May I see yours Kasumi. I want to make sure it states no powers in the challenge" Kasumi rolled her eyes. "Father, I like some people." She said this looking at Genma. "I'm an Honorable person." Kasumi said handing him the contract. Soun read over the piece of paper, and nodded. "All seems in order." Soun said. As he looked over his. Then they both signed there names, it was basically the same. If Kasumi uses her powers in anyway shape or form, she forfeits the tendo name and will leave forever. Souns was worded defiantly. If he lost he forfeits the Dojo and the house to his three children.
Genma and Akane signed as witnesses to this. There was also a video tape of the signing as well. "Well you give me a few days to get ready Daughter?" Soun asked. Kasumi waved at him. "Yeah sure. In the mean time I'll be staying here, doing my usual slave labor." Kasumi said. Soun winced at that.
Two Weeks Later.
Soun sat kneeling at Kimako's shine praying for forgiveness.
Kasumi looked at her gi. Her hair was now a shade of light blue with brown high lights in them. After making sure her ear rings was on she left.
"Name your Second Father." Kasumi said. Soun looked at Genma who nodded. "Genma Saotome. And yours?" Kasumi smiled. "Akane Tendo." Akane smiled just from the sparring they did she gained better skills. Maybe not as good as Ranma's but she was probably at his level when he first came.
"Miss Tendo. I am to understand that your powers are locked." Kho lon Said. Kasumi nodded. "Yes elder." The aged Amazon looked at Soun and Genma. "You understand the conditions of the contract?" They but nodded. "Very well. The rules are simple. No weapon, No Powers, and No Ki attacks. When I say begin you will fight until your Second is knocked into unconsciousness." She said The four nodded.
"Then. BEGIN!"
Kasumi wasted no time as she attacked her Father with fast kicks and punches. Soun was pressed into a defensive still trying to counter as much as he could. Kasumi side stepped a straight punch from her father and gave him a hard round house kick in return. Then she fellow up with a upper cut to his chin knocking him off the ground and into the wall. "Kasumi?"
"No Elder. My powers are Mystic in origin." Kasumi said in defense. The Elder nodded "Continue then." and Kasumi did. Soun got up and started attacking throwing missing punches and kicks. Kasumi saw her father in a whole new light. Akane sat on the side lines. Waiting for her true, which she hopes she gets it soon.
Kasumi dunked under her fathers left jab and gave him a hard punch to the ribs, she then Kicked his legs out from under him. As Aoun fell the last thing she remember was Kasumi loving smile as he lights went out.
The Fight was being video taped. Nabiki was making sure that when they review the tape that Kasumi wasn't using her powers. Genma stepped up. "I will not fight a mutant." He stated.
"Fine by me. Akane your up." Kasumi said as she turned to Akane. "You be careful Little sister." Akane smiled. "Hai, Sensi." She stepped up and bowed to Genma.
"This match is as good as over." Genma said. "Hmm, I wonder how Panda curry sounds." Akane said back. "You're a bad role model Mr. Saotome. And Im gonna make you pay."
Since Kasumi wasn't fighting, Nabiki made sure to keep video taping. Kho lon watched from the side lines. She knew Akane was better. After all she help train her. Two weeks ago Kasumi came to her for help. When asked how can she help Akane Kasumi said that she can create a time vortex that well make days seem like weeks. So stepping in the vortex Kasumi Akane and Kho lon started training Akane. After what seem like years the three stepped out and Akane was a new person.
Akane Made quick work of Genma, Punching his face like it was nothing, When Genma swung at her Akane dunked countered with a punch to the arm pit, then she let him have it, She kicked him in the balls Genmas eyes crossed.. "Kane, Don't hurt him to badly. We can sell him to the zoo for a good sum of money." Nabiki yelled. "HA!" Akane yelled as she run up the fats mans body and the jumps off with a spin kick to the temple. Knocking him out of the count.
Kho lon raised her hand and yelled. " Match set, Kasumi and Akane Tendo wins."
Nabiki smiled.
Five minutes later we fine Kasumi, Akane, and the two losers sitting around the table as Nabiki review the tape. "Tendo I say she used her powers." Genma said. Kasumi was sipping her tea. "If I did Mr. Saotome you would be dead." Kasumi flatly stated. Genma looked at her. "Your nothing but a Dishonorable Mutant." Kasumi stopped her sister. "And you are a dishonorable beast." Kasumi said. "What kind of human being would put their only child through the things that you did? No Mr. Saotome, your much worst then a mutant." Genma wanted to show her who was boss that He could kick her butt. "I HAVE NO CHILD!" he yelled. "Because of that freak I also have no wife."
"Kasumi let me kick his..." kasumi calmly stop her sister by holding up her hand. "No Akane, He is only afraid of me because I could kill him if I wished it. But you see Akane just because I can kill, I won't." Kasumi softly said. At this time Soun sat thinking about the fight. How easy Kasumi was able to best him. "Father, there's something I need to tell you." Kasumi said ignoring Genma. "Yes daughter?"
Kasumi looked down. "Father, i wish there was a better way to tell you but I'm ummm married." Kasumi said shyly. Soun looked at his eldest. "I assume, that you meant this young man, at Xaviers?" Kasumi nodded. "I see. You really have grown, but if you was happy then why dear child did you ever return?" Kasumi looked at her father in shocked. He wasn't crying, babbling about how his baby is married. Soun chuckled at that. "My dear, dear daughter. I have told you time and time again that I only wish that you remain happy. Before you discover that you was a mutant, you was willing to give your life away to become a mother for your sisters." Two pairs of wide eyes young women stared at their father. "Kasumi are you sure you didn't use your powers?" Soun looked at her and smile. "No she did not I can, for the first time since your mother's death I can truthfully see how bad of a father I was." Soun said as he bowed to his two daughters.
"Tendo Why are you bowing to a Mutant?" Genma spoke up. "My old friend surely she had put you under a spell." Kasumi laughed.
Everyone looked at her. "Oh you poor, poor bastard. You have no Idea what my powers are do you? Shale I show you? Perhaps your worst fears well make you see the truth." And without warning Kasumi took off her ear ring and cast a spell on Genma. "Kasumi?" Akane wanted to ask. But Kasumi answered her question before she asked. " Mr. Saotome. I have tired very hard to like you and your back words way of thinking Its time that you open your eyes to the horrors of this world. Through my eyes." and so the spell was cast and Sorceress Showed Genma the mass murders, the fighting the hatred, and just before it end, She showed him the horrors that he put Ranma though.
Soun watched as his old friend. Since he saw the truth himself without her help he knew that Genma was a fool. The screams that came from Genma made Soun wince. "Kasumi, enough daughter." and with that Kasumi let Genma go of the spell and put the ear ring back on. Everyone looked at Genma's shaken form that was on the floor. "I'm sorry I'm sorry." He kept repeating.
Five minutes later nabiki came down and a smile on her face. "Kasumi did not use her powers in the fight. She fought with pure skill.' She said.
Soun smiled. "I see, Daughter, I ask that I remain in the house so that I may teach classes, seeing as how you have more importing things to do." Kasumi tilted her head like she used to. "What's that father?"
Soun next words, warmed Kasumi heart. "Finding Ranma, and making the world a safer place for mutants of course." Kasumi couldn't help but smile as she hugged her father.
Author Notes: Well I can't see a better way to end this small part of Rayearth X-men. Again this Interlude has nothing to do with the main story, However, It does have more to do with a Kasumi stand lone X-men story. So if you want to know who married Kasumi and when Look for Sorceress: The Kasumi Tendo Story. With Kasumi as the main character.
Chapter three will be up in about a week or so. Also tell me if you would like to see Ranma and Hikaru together. Well that's all for now So Im looking foreword to your reviews. Oh one more thing, starting next chapter the new title of this story will be New Roads.
