Ranma 1/2/ Sailor Moon (Earlier this Year)
Inspiration for 'Saturn's Wild Horse'
Saturn's Savior Idea Doc
Overview
Ranma-chan walking down the road one night on a training trip runs into Saturn, Saturn is exhausted from a battle with Youma that is still ongoing and has retreated. Before she can say anything Saturn falls unconscious and Ranma thinking she's a victim picks her up and takes her to his/her camp.
Story is set about two years post manga-end for both worlds. Ranma has traveled the world after the events of the wedding and has become an incredibly knowledgeable and powerful Ki/Chi Master/Mistress. Upon scanning Saturn she immediately know what is wrong with her and begins to attempt a healing.
Saturn stays with Ranma for several weeks as a patient and student, after the sixth week however Ranma reveals that her weakness can't be cured. As a result of all the incomplete reincarnations and the possession of Mistress 9 her Ki pathways have been degraded and her powers as Saturn are attempting to push her through the natural reincarnation cycle as it falls under their aegis.
Ranma hesitantly offers a solution, but it would require a sacrifice on both their parts. Saturn would have to go from birth naturally with all of her memories intact and Ranma would have to be the one to carry her and give birth to her.
Although hesitant Ranma's code prevents him/her from outright refusing, 'it is a martial artists duty to help the weak and defenseless' and Saturn falls within that duty.
Saturn agrees to the proposition and Ranma utilizes her Ki power and Saturn's magic to set the reincarnation in progress.
Using stealth Ranma returns to his mother to inform her of his decisions and what he/she did to help Saturn. Nodoka despite the contract is happy as she couldn't think of anything more manly (or womanly) then Ranma giving up his manhood for nine to ten months so he could help one of the saviors of Juuban and Earth.
Nodoka immediately notices that Ranma has access to the powers of Saturn and begins to teach her how to utilize a Polearm in combat, despite the otherworldly nature of the Silence Glaive it is at its base a Polearm and knowledge of Polearm combat is invaluable for such a thing.
Nodoka also teaches Ranma some specialized Kata and techniques for pregnant woman as 'A mother is her child's last line of defense, 'til it has grown to be strong on its own'
Ranma heads to Ryugenzawa and helps out Shinnosuke and his grandfather with the animals, she then finds that there is in fact a whole town hidden from the world there. By helping with the animals Ranma ends up a minor celebrity within the town and is given a home to live in for free, although she has to fix it up.
Ranma eventually gives birth to Saturn and gives her, her old civilian name but with the family name of Saotome.
After three years when Saturn is three years old, Ranma begins light training with her. Despite having given birth Ranma still has access to Saturn's power and utilizes it sparingly against the more dangerous creatures of Ryugenzawa.
(Un)Fortunately this captures the attention of Ami Mizuno (Sailor Mercury) as she is on a study trip to learn about Ryugenzawa for a college assignment. However Mercury is hesitant to call the rest of the Senshi in without need. She is later ambushed by a giant tiger and before she can transform is rescued by Ranma.
Discovering that Saturn disappeared in order to get help for her weakness and is still recuperating Mercury agrees to keep it a secret unless absolutely necessary. Ranma reveals that she has Saturn's communicator and if she is desperately needed that she will teleport to the Senshi and help.
A few months after this event Saffron, reincarnated and angry at his defeat arrives in Japan to get revenge on Ranma. Unfortunately for Saffron he hits Juuban first and is forced into combat with the Senshi.
Ranma recognizing Saffron from the news feed and noticing that the Senshi are having trouble fighting him teleports to Juuban and catches Saffron's undefended back with a Silence Glaive Surprise. The severe damage from the attack forces Saffron down, which Ranma immediately capitalizes on. Before Saffron can get his bearings Ranma has the Silence Glaive at his throat and states 'Ya know Saffron, no matter what ya do I'll always defeat ya, ya wanna know why? Because all ya got is arrogance and hatred, they say when you seek revenge you should dig two graves one for the opponent and one for ya self. Unfortunately for you alls ya gonna get filled is ya own grave. Next time Saffron, protect your people. If they survive without you for another cycle that is' Before Saffron can answer Ranma decapitates him.
The Senshi all rush forwards and are pushed back by a massive wave of fire, once it burns down all that is left is Ranma in Saturn's Fuku and holding a large glowing egg.
She turns to the rest of the Senshi 'Don't ya worry, I didn't kill 'im all I did was force him to reincarnate. Hopefully this time he'll grow up right, without the hatred and anger that ruined 'im, but I'm not hopeful, his people spoil him far too much' She then turns and throws the egg in the air where Kiima catches it 'Take 'im home and this is ya last warnin' Kiima, next time I'll finish it. Too many innocents could 'ave been hurt, next time I'll bring the hammer down on Phoenix Mountain and bury ya all in the rubble' Kiima nods and salutes Ranma before flying off to the west, back towards China.
Ranma then holds her hands up in the air 'Now before ya'll interrogate me, let's go somewhere less public then Tokyo Harbor, 'kay'
Then the Senshi lead Ranma to Hikawa Shrine and she begins to tell them the story of Saturn and what she did to help her.
Ranma after getting the thanks from Usagi Tsukino (Sailor Moon) for helping Saturn out offers to train the Senshi. When Rei Hino (Sailor Mars) offers an objection that she doesn't have the freedom to do such training her grandfather and Happosai walk in and say that she does.
Ranma cracks a comment about Happosai not going after the Senshi and he replies that he's many things, but insanely stupid ain't one. Going after girls with that much power is just asking for his death. He then cracks that he barely escaped Pluto that one time and that was only after he swore never to go after her or the Senshi ever again. Ranma turns away from Pluto as she has a fairly sadistic smirk on her face. She swears to herself to never ask exactly what Pluto did to keep Happosai away.
