KNIGHTS OF MOONLIGHT AND DREAMS A Ranma 1/2-Sailor Moon crossover By: The DragonBard ********************************************************************** e-mail me at dragonbard@hotmail.com ********************************************************************** This is a work of fan fiction. No copyright infringement is intended. Please don't sue me! Please note that this is not a part of any of my other Ranma 1/2 fanfic series, or my Sailor Moon series, Moon Queen Magic. This story is entirly seperate from both of them. I'm writing this story, partially in tribute to Lines of Destiny, and Mirrors' Multiplied by my pal Skysaber, which are, in my opinion, two of the best crossover series ever, and I hope the guys get more chapters of them out soon before I go nuts (assuming I'm not already around the bend!) I apreciate all the C&C I've gotten, and I'm hoping for alot more. ______________________________________________________________________ A shadowed place, filled with light, but dimmed, as if the light was being seen through a veil of some kind. All around, hazy, shadowed figures danced. What could be seen of them was beautiful. Then, they stopped, and as one turned to the center of the room. There, a beautiful blond woman stood, with a handsome man in black armour and four more gorgeous women, all behind her. In front of her, kneeled eight warriors, men and women in equal numbers, in silver armour. Upon their breastplate, they each had a golden crescent moon, and at their sides, each wore a sword, though many held other weapons than that as well. Surprisingly, it was the women who held the most weapons. One woman held two large maces at her sides, another a great war hammer, and a third a giant battle axe. Only one of the men seemed to carry a weapon other than his sword. The man was the most massive of them, and carried what appeared to be a short lance of some sort. The blond woman raised a rod or stick of some kind, and from the tip of it came a great silver light, which bathed the eight before her. Then, it all became horrible, monsters, the warriors, fighting valiantly. A monster with great red eyes, and a body of darkness. The warriors again, now falling to the enemy. Then, the silver light once more. After that; Nothing. At that instant, eight different figures awoke, screaming in to the night. It was a peaceful day at the Tendo Dojo. "Ranma, you pervert!" Well, peaceful for Nerima. "I guess the two lovebirds are at it again." Nabiki said as she sipped at her tea. A few moments later, Akane stormed to the breakfast table, followed by her fiance, Ranma. "Geeze, Akane, what'd you hit me for?! I wasn't like you were undressed or anything." Ranma said. "Not that I can understand why anyone would want to look at an uncute tomboy like you." "Ranma! You Jerk!" With that, Akane punched Ranma into the wall, just as Kasumi came in. "Akane," Soun said. "Do you remember your cousin Ami Minzuo?" Akane nodded. "Well, her mother called and wanted to know if she could come visit. Apparently, Ami is interested in learning a bit of martial arts and her mother wanted to know if we could train her. I figured since it's the summer, Ranma could help you. "How right you are Tendo," Genma said with a grin. "It would be a perfect chance for the two of them to practice for when they run the Dojo together." Akane just glared at her father, as Ranma elbowed his father in the head. "Yeah, like I'ld need any help training a girl, especially the help of a macho tomboy like her." "Ranma no Baka!" Akane yelled as she flatend Ranma with her trusty mallet. Seeing as how Ranma was now a twitching mass on the floor, Akane turned her attention back towards her breakfast. It would be good to see her cousin Ami again. Their mothers had been sisters, and they hadn't seen much of each other since junior high started, and Ami had moved to Juuban. Though, it was surprising that Ami wanted to study martial arts. When they were younger, Akane had tried to get her to learn a few basic techniques to defend herself, since Ami was a bit shy, she had gotten picked on by bullies a lot, but Ami had only been interested in studying to be a doctor just like her mother. Akane thought. At the apartment of Makoto Kino, a phone rang. It's incessent noise halted finally when finally, Lita reached out lifted it to her ear. "Hello, this is Makoto Kino, how can I help you?" She said with a tone of, 'this better be important.' "Mako-chan? It's Ami. I can't talk at the moment because I'm running a bit late. My Mother caught me practicing some of the moves that you and Rei taught me, and I had to explain that I've gotten interested in the health benefits of martial arts. Now she wants me to visit an uncle of mine who owns a dojo over in Nerima. So I won't be able to make the meeting this week." "That's ok, Ami. I'll tell the others." Makoto said. "Hey, maybe you'll pick up some cute guy while you're there." She laughed. "See ya." And with that, the two hung up. Not realizing that they were being watched by an old aquantince, Sailor Pluto. Pluto nodded as another piece of the puzzle necessary for the creation of Crystal Tokyo was brought into play. ********************************************************************** So, how do you like it? I've been kind of stuck on this thing for a while now, and I really need some C&C.
