Chapter 2 - Wedding Bells and Flying Horses

*** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ****** ***

Ranma Saotome slowly regained consciousness his eyes blurry his head clouded and his body restrained.

"Baka Oyaji What did you do to me this time old man" muttered Ranma struggling against the chains holding him in place.

"Well boy it's time you upheld your family's honor" Genma announced in a proud tone as if this was something that Ranma wanted.

"Oh I'm so happy the schools will be joined" Wailed Soun

"Only problem Mr. Tendo is your school has no students" Ranma replied smugly knowing that Akane hadn't even mastered the basics and Soun hadn't taught since his wife died. Ranma also knew his father had stolen the technique scrolls of the Tendo style making it impossible for Akane to learn on her own even if she had the desire. Ranma had "liberated" all the scrolls his father had stolen when they arrived in Nerima. All in all he had the secret techniques for close to ten separate schools, hoping to return them one day. After meeting Akane Tendo he knew she couldn't master the techniques and who would blame him also putting that much power in her hands would lead to trouble.

"But Ranma if you don't marry my daughter you can't have the gift that has been sent" Soun Mentioned leaning against a small barrel marked in Chinese

"What?" growled Ranma struggling against the chains holding him down growling at his father, he knew the spring water was coming the guide had sent him a letter telling him that it was a gift as thanks for protecting the springs.

"Oh… my son in law is disrespecting his father in-law" wailed Soun

"How do you think my mom will fell if she found out your doing this old panda?"

"Oh all she will see is her son being married"

"Oh my little girl will be married"

"You see this" Genma held up an incense stick "this will provide your full cooperation"

"Stealing tricks from the amazons' old man?" these were the last words uttered by Ranma before the incense took control.

Meanwhile in Akane's room.

A knock at the door breaks Akane out of her sulking.

"Akane it's Nabiki I've got a surprise for you"

"What is it?

"Open the door and you'll see" as Akane opened the door all that she could see was a western style wedding dress

"…it's beautiful, what's that for, you getting married" asked a stunned Akane

"No you are, well Daddy and Mr. Saotome got fed up with Ranma skipping out on his honour so their holding the wedding today"

"But won't I don't want to marry that jerk, he'll probably run of with one of his hussies right after the wedding" contradictory to her words Akane was already changing into the wedding dress.

"Uncle Saotome has assured us that Ranma will co-operate"

"I'm really getting married" was all that Akane said she kept on repeating this phrase over and over

"So you really do like Ranma then eh, little sister"

"Yes I love Ranma and he loves me, but those other girls just won’t leave us alone" as Akane spouted this garbage I mean made a heartfelt confession she twirled around in the new dress.

"Well let's go see what the groom thinks"

Meanwhile back in the temporary Saotome room.

"So Saotome how does this Chinese incense work?" queried Soun

"Well Tendo, this incense makes the victim follow the will of those near them"

"How will that help your son reveal his true feelings for my daughter?"

"Tendo everyone at the wedding expects Ranma to marry your daughter so that's what Ranma will do"

"So is that why none of Ranma's friends have been invited?"

"Yes Tendo, the incense will become ineffective if there are conflicting desires emanating form the audience, enough talking Tendo let's take the groom to the alter"

As Ranma was placed in front of the alter at one end of the dojo, the fathers worked the crowd, mentioning that Ranma was just nervous and that he really wanted to marry Akane. Slowly Ranma's body stance and disposition changed from generally puppet like to the demeanour of a nervous groom.

Suddenly the fathers appeared by Ranma's side, the priest was talking to the fathers rather than trying to talk to the groom, he seamed too nervous to talk. The guests all sat down and the bridal march started, Akane walked out of the house wearing the beautiful wedding dress, with her sisters behind her in formal kimonos Nabiki looking smug as she thought about all the invitations she sold that morning, while Kasumi looked down at the floor ashamed at what her family was doing to poor Ranma-Kun. As the guests looked on in aw, Ranma's face changed from nervous groom to a groom stunned by the beauty of his bride, as that was how the crowd felt he should act. Although there was a slight wavering in the mask of the awed groom as Kasumi's feelings lessened the hold of the incense.

Soon Akane was standing beside Ranma she looked up at him and asked

"Ranma how do I look" her Ranma’s reply was a stunned look and a slack jaw.

‘Wow he's stunned’ she thought to her self

"Ranma what did they do to you, and where is Auntie Nodoka" Kasumi whispered to her self, as she did this Ranma's awed façade wavered again. Kasumi saw this realising something was wrong, slipped back into the house and franticly tried to contact Nodoka. As the priest started the wedding there was a sudden crash, a wave of smoke from the house and a cry of
"I object!" from 3 female voices, a male voice and the less than enthusiastic voice of a cross dresser, A final louder voice.
"Genma Saotome what the hell do you think your doing?!" from the smoke came Ukyo and Shampoo in traditional formal dress from Japan and China respectively carrying their weapons of choice although Ukyo was also carrying a tray of Okonomiyaki while Shampoo just had her Bonbori, Kuno in a formal Yukata, holding an unsheathed steel katana and Kodachi in a black western wedding dress her weapon of choice the gymnastics ribbon and Nodoka wearing dishevelled training clothing her katana unbound at her waist, her stance was aggressive and for an observant person not a standard stance, her eyes promised death would come swiftly to those who harmed her child.

As the uninvited guests, who curiously were all carrying invitations stormed into the dojo, Ranma's mind started to fight back against the incense. The incense couldn't keep Ranma’s mind under control the "saviours" had strong enough wills against the wedding to give Ranma room to move in his mind. Ranma ever the adaptable fighter used some Chi form around the dojo to burn the incense from his body. To those watching Ranma he produced a rose/white aura, seconds later he turned around and glared at his father.

"That's it old man you control my life no more" with that he ran at his father his aura gaining silver streaks taking on the form of a giant tiger Genma not being stupid (when it comes to running away) slipped into the Umisenken and ran. Ranma turned on Soun instead of fighting said in a low voice.

"My father stole the scrolls of your school, for this dishonour I will not return them till your school has a worthy student"

As he said this Akane looked on in shock, he slipped into the Umisenken and returned to his room, there he changed into his new shirt and pants grabbed his bag and began filling it using the Kachü Tenshin Amaguriken speed to pack his bags, hiding the sword using hidden weapons techniques, once changed he proceeded to return to the dojo determined to try to salvage the Dojo and protect the guests.

As he arrived at the dojo he took account of what was going on the girls were fighting in one corner, his father had returned and was fighting with the blind wonder and the eternal lost boy over a cask he assumed to be the Nannichuan water. ‘Well don't need that I'll learn to control the curse’ reasoned Ranma acknowledging a realisation he’d had a while ago. The Kuno siblings were fighting all over the dojo spouting gibberish or poetry claming to be saving their respective loves .The only ones not moving a small local girl, a friend of the Tendo's that had once seen Ranma at the mercy of the old washer woman and since then had laughed at him every time she saw him, she was currently hiding behind Akane who hadn't moved from the middle of the dojo. Ranma ran up and grabbed the girl before one of the blind ducks throwing chains hit her.

"Mousse you moron you almost hit this girl!" Ranma accused Mousse, hearing these words Akane finally woke up.

"Ranma you jerk you’ve ruined my marriage" a giant red aura surrounded her and a massive iron mallet appeared in her hands. Throwing the girl into a pile of decorations he hoped was soft Ranma took the hit full on and skyrocketed out of the dojo flying far beyond Nerima ward and straight into Juuban. In fact he was flying into the central park in Juuban currently being used by the Sailor Senshi for a fight… which they were losing.

"Pluto, the Mercury computer is telling me that this Youma is immune to magic, can we defeat it?" the intelligence master of the Sailor Senshi, Sailor Mercury informed the unofficial mystic.

"Don't worry Mercury I have a feeling help will come" came the mysterious reply from the mentor and prime source of annoyance for the younger Senshi. She didn’t know where the help would come from and didn’t have time to check the gates but Setsuna had always relied on her instinct.

The help in question, one Ranma Saotome, was currently 50 meters above the park falling fast, had already sensed the one-sided battle and planed to do something about it. It would be a good stress relief. Ranma had started to gather heat in his fist and planed to use this along with the momentum from the flight to slam into the Youma with the newly invented "Meteor Fist" technique.

As the large Anubis inspired beast started stalking the wounded Sailor Moon raising his large scythe like weapon, a low hum filled the air as though something was coming in fast from the air. A large fire ball fell from the night sky and heading straight at the Youma.

"Meteor Fist!" the beast was engulfed in dust, smoke and fire, the beast was subsequently thrown from cloud into a tree, shaking a weird man in a tux out of the tree.

"Nothing can defeat me “shouted the beast slashing his scythe in the direction of the new opponent.

"Well the last guy that said that got his ass kicked, he called himself a god, you think you stand a chance?" taunted Ranma emerging from the cloud, cracking his knuckles and moving into a balanced fighting stance.

"No, you can't be the Kami killer, not Saotome" replied the shocked beast stepping back almost quivering in fear.

"Yea that's me, although the Kami killer is new, so either you're gonna run or we gonna have ta fight" Ranma removed his bag and threw it by the girls.

By this time the dust had settled enough that the Senshi could the two combatants specifically see their knight in shining armour. The Beast had regained his composure and had charged at Ranma

"Go Tuxedo mask" cried Sailor moon

"That's not tuxedo mask you moron" berated Mars although her eyes were on the black haired young man.

"Oh. My. God that's Ranma Saotome, he's the best martial artist of this generation" uttered Haruka acting more like the boy crazed inners then she was comfortable with.

"That's my Sempai" exclaimed Makoto like she had so many times before. Only this time it's true.

"Pluto you should look at this, the mercury computer has done a preliminary scan and his power is greater on par with ours"

While the Senshi were recovering Ranma was tackled by the Youma, while he abhorred killing Ranma had offered the chance to run away the beast was attacking others, so he felt no regret as he pushed his palms into the beast's stomach and let loose his newest technique.

"White tiger blast!" a ball of intense white light grew slowly from his palms and pushed the beast back. The ball then exploded showering the area in white light, as it faded the monster shattered and faded into nothing. Ranma turned around and faced the Senshi scratching the back of his head while rubbed the back of his left leg with his right foot in classic Ranma style.

"Ranma Saotome, sorry bout this" and promptly collapsed hitting the ground. The Outers were the first to the body, Saturn was cradling Ranma's head in her lap.

"Now it's my turn to help you Ranma-Sama"

Michiru and Haruka held one of Ranma's hands each while Setsuna watched on wondering what she should do about this, she knew precious little about the life of this young man. But she knew enough that he would make a powerful ally, the Senshi would have to be warned about some people in his life.
"Mama Setsuna, he's just drained it seams more stress related but I can sense a lot of long term damage all through his body" before Hotaru could finish her sentence Setsuna had moved closer looking at the face of the young man. As if coming to a decision Setsuna stepped back, summoned her Garnet rod and disappeared.

"She must have gone to the time gate to look at his past" Michiru supplied knowing that was the question on everyone's mind

"How do you know Ranma?" Asked Minako thinking (dam I should have been faster)

"Now isn't the time for reviewing the past we need to move before the cops or worse the press arrive" replied Haruka with confirming nods from Michiru and Hotaru.

"We shouldn't be standing here we need to move, someone could come find us and if half the things are true about Ranma then we wouldn't stand a change against anyone looking for him after taking a beating from that Youma" Haruka warned looking around as if she expected some one to come through the bushes looking for Ranma… who do we know that can do that.

"Well we can teleport, but where are we going?" asked Usagi

"My house!" Shouted all the Senshi at once

"We don't have to explain our selves to our parents" the outers

"Neither do I, I know my Sempai he's gonna be hungry when he gets up and he eats more than Usagi and I just went shopping" the chef

"My parents wouldn't mind and they would like to see Ranma again" the rabbit

"My house is the biggest" ‘And so is my bed’

"The Temple is closest" a miko currently having impure thoughts

"My mother is home and she's a doctor" the blushing genius

"We will take him to our house, I have to explain some things to all of you and none of your parents know about your secrets yet" Setsuna said from behind Usagi strangely enough carrying a big bottle of open Sake, half finished.

"Ah! Don’t. Do. That!" screamed Usagi jumping about a meter in the air

"What about Mamo-Chan"

"Leave him, with Ranma's luck he will put his foot in his mouth and then we would have to take him to the hospital"

"Who Ranma?" asked Ami

"No Mamo"

"Why?"

"You will understand later" as Setsuna this said, she waived the garnet rod and transported the group including Ranma’s bad, seconds later the Senshi appeared at the home of the Outers surrounding a floor pallet on which Ranma was placed. Haruka tried to move Ranma's bag.

"God this thing must weight a ton"

"One point five actually"

"Who in god's name would make him carry a bag this heavy?"

"His father and that's not the worst of it, take these your going to need them"

"Buckets? Why?"

"Because I'm going to tell you what I know of Ranma's past it's not a happy story" saying this she took a swig from the sake bottle

"Don't you think you should slow down Setsuna" asked Rei

"Don't worry I can't get drunk… unfortunately"

While Setsuna told the Senshi about Ranma's past unseen blue light separated itself from the Senshi and hovered over Ranma as if judging him, finding him acceptable it disappeared into his chest. At the same time Ranma passed from unconscious to merely dreaming.

-------------------------------

Note Version 2:

I received a review saying that Ranma should have been able to burn off the incense with his Chi as soon as he'd been put under but Ranma is gaining Chi control and needs total concentration to use even the least techniques involving chi he also need access to compatible Chi.

Notes:

Woot, I found my copy of book 38 of the Ranma manga my DVD of that period in the anime is well. stuffed so I'll have to work of the manga since many of you readers don't read the Ranma manga so I have to add a chapter where before I would have just said the failed wedding happened and then go from their but now I have to transcribe the wedding I hope your happy with yourselves.ignorant readers. For those of you who know the wedding scene it will be changed slightly. obviously since the manga had Ranma being knocked out when he reached the front door. Kind of mean really he did just defeat a God. Oh the level of power that Ranma has is significantly more than the scouts but of a different type his is physical theirs is magical.
