I do not own Ranma ½ it belongs to Rumiko Takahashi.

Talking

Thinking

Ranma groans as he returns to consciousness.

Great, I let my emotions get the best of me and I used too much energy too fast. Now here I am, lying on the ground and I'm pretty sure that everyone who's been looking for me either saw or felt all the energy I was wasting and are on their way if not already here.

I need to get moving.

Ranma started to sit up but was held down by two hands on his chest. He opened his eyes to see two hands in white gloves holding him down. After several seconds, he also noticed that he recognized the rings that were on the hands. I wonder how they were able to keep them through their transformations.

Looking up, he sees the two owners of the hands looking down at him with concern shining in their faces. The one with the ring on her left hand is dressed in teal and cerulean. The other one dressed in red and purple. Sighing to himself, Ranma sits up and groans at how stiff his body is. Working the joints in his hands and arms to loosen them, he asks them, "So, what happened while I was out?"

The two women share a look and shake their heads at the stubborn martial artist. The one in teal sighed and said, "After you stopped putting out energy we ran here as fast as we could, with these two following us." As she gestures over her shoulder to two younger girls, one in purple and maroon and the other in yellow and cobalt blue. "We found a place to change, and then got here as fast as we could. Guess who followed us."

Ramna chuckled to himself. It doesn't take a genius to figure out who might be here. Taking a look around, Ranma saw the Fiancé Brigade, his father Genma, Kuno, and Mousse standing a few yards away. Yeah, they're all here. Nodding to himself, Ranma addresses the Sailor Scouts with his head down and his eyes closed. "Go ahead and get out of here, this is my problem not yours. I'll take care of it. If you see my wife, let her know I'll be home for dinner."

The Sailor Scouts look at him for a few moments before nodding and taking off into the city. Ryoga watches Ranma for a few minutes before deciding that he was being asked to leave as well. Ignoring everyone else, he turns to Minako and says, "Let's go Mina. We don't want to be near here right now." Minako nods to her boyfriend and lets him pick her up and Ryoga walks off in the same direction as the Scouts. Akane gives Ryoga's back a hurt look, but quickly turns her attention back to Ranma.

Ranma waits until the 4 Sailor Scouts and Ryoga take off before addressing the people who he used to let control his life. "So, you're all here. Can't say I'm surprised, none of you were ever good at letting go. So, what is it you want? It has been five years, haven't any of you moved on yet?" Ranma opens his eyes and looks up at what remains of the Nerima Wrecking Crew. "Of course not, that would mean you grew up while I was gone. Guess that was too much to hope for." Several voices shouted out at that comment.

"SHUT UP, YOU PERVERT!!"

"BOY, have you no honor!!"

"FOUL SORCERER, I shall free my fierce tigress and my pigtailed goddess from your evil spell!!"

"AIREN, you should not talk about wife like that!!"

"OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO Ranma-sama, you should not have married another, now I shall have to remove her so we can wed!!"

"SAOTOME, I shall free my Shampoo from your grasp!!!"

"RANMA HONEY, who is this woman you've married? Aren't I your cute fiancé?"

Ranma sighed to himself. "See what I'm talking about? Those are the same words you all used 5 years ago. I used the last 5 years to grow and mature. I know I had my faults when I last saw you, but I grew up. I had to; my daughters needed me to be their father, not some uneducated, egotistical jerk."

Everyone looked shocked at that. Shampoo voiced the feelings of the rest of the fiancés. "Airen have children with other woman? That not right. Shampoo will have to remove obstacles from way." The fiancé brigade nodded in agreement.

"There is no way I'm raising some whore's kids."

"I agree with you this once, Tendo. I shall not help rear another's illegitimate offspring"

While Ukyo did nod, she didn't think killing his daughters was going to win him over. "While I can agree that raising someone else's kids is not something I want, trying to get rid of them will only anger Ranma." The other fiancé's looked thoughtful for a moment, thinking it through. Shampoo was undeterred though. "They are obstacles, obstacles are for killing."

Ranma was livid. He couldn't believe it. Just because they had lost, they were going to kill his wife and kids. It would only get worse if they found out about Rei. "I see, I didn't want to fight you guys, I really didn't. I was hoping we could talk this through like people are supposed to." Ranma's aura flared into existence. "If you can't accept that, then we'll do things your way."

Before they could start, 4 voices shouted out.

"Moko Takebisha"

The balls of ki impacted between Ranma and the wrecking crew. After the dust settled, everyone saw four people standing near Ranma. Everyone recognized one of the people, while Akane and Genma recognized the other three.

"Nabiki! She's your wife!?"

Nabiki smirked at the wrecking crew. Then turned to Ranma and whispered, "Ranma, I accidentally used my abilities on instinct when Akane challenged my back at the dojo. They bought the story about you figuring out elemental manipulation through the mind, but I'm pretty sure Kasumi saw through it." Ranma nodded to her, never taking his eyes off the other group.

None of the Wrecking Crew had anything to say just then. They all had looks of complete shock on their faces. Ranma shook his head and said, "What's the matter? No talking about killing me or those close to me when you don't have numbers on your side anymore?" Ranma laughed to himself.

Looking at the four people around him, he smiled. They were the two women in his life, Rei and Nabiki, next to them, his two daughters, Kiren and Hotaru. They were his family, his life. He had gone to school and gotten his license to teach to help support Nabiki and Kiren, and then later Hotaru. Rei was special too, the night they shared meant so much to him, and now she was carrying his child. No, he would not let anyone, let alone the people standing opposite him take that away.

Sailor Pluto was not having a good day. In fact, if you were to ask her, she would say that she hasn't had this bad a day since the Silver Millennium fell. All the work she had done to ensure Crystal Tokyo and it was coming apart. When she didn't save the old Neptune and Uranus, she did so because she wanted to continue to influence the princess to the outcome she was planning.

Well, they do say that hindsight is 20/20.

That thought gave her little solace. The only thing she could think of was that she should have saved those damn lesbians when she had the chance. She hadn't particularly liked them, but they were loyal and good at what they did. Now she had 4 possibly 5 of the Sailor Scouts looking at the great freeze as an unacceptable scenario.

So what if it'll kill over six billion people, I'll have restored the Silver Millennium to its former glory.

All this happened because the powers of the fallen scouts chose the wife and daughter of that….that man. Now she would have to take him out of the picture.

How did I not see this coming back when I could have done something about it? He has to be a chaos nexus like Galaxia was.

She knew that the princess wouldn't like this, but what she didn't know wouldn't hurt her. As long as the disloyal didn't see her do it, there would be no proof and she would save her dream. She would have already succeeded but fortunately for the chaos magnet, she had been delayed by a youma attack.

Now she stood waiting for her moment. She saw him standing there, off in the distance, the traitors standing there with him. She had watched Minako and her boyfriend take off, another loose end she would have to cut, and Venus didn't need a consort until after Crystal Tokyo was formed anyway.

Pluto smiled as she moved to a place directly behind her target. She had seen him fight, while he was good, he couldn't stop her attack. All she needed was the right moment. There, he's distracted, talking to the new Neptune. Her smile widened to its greatest size as she whispered her attack.

"Dead scream"

Her elation, which had been at record levels, suddenly dropped off as there was a flash of light and her attack was stopped. After her eyes readjusted to the light, her blood ran cold. Between her and her target was a purple energy barrier. Silence Wall was the only thought she was able to get out before she had to defend herself against three very angry Sailor Scouts.

She was doing fine until she found her hands bound by a heart shaped chain.

Ranma wasn't in a good mood. He had passed out not too long ago due to using too much energy, and then he woke up to find most of his Neriman problems had found him all at the same time. Then, just to make his day that much better, one of the Sailor Scouts had just attacked him. All he needed now was someone to show up and claim that they are his child or something like that.

He paused at that thought and looked up to the sky.

Can we keep that thought just between us?

Unfortunately, things weren't going his way today and asking something like that was only asking for trouble. Out of nowhere, everyone heard a young voice rang out.

"Restrain her, Scouts but do not harm her too much. She has much to answer for." Ranma looked up in surprise to see Sailor Moon and her younger counterpart standing on a tree branch not far off. Chibi-Moon made sure Pluto wouldn't make any more trouble and then smiled and launched herself at Ranma.

"HI DADDY!!!"

AN: That's right, I'm back. Now, I know it's been a long time, but I'd like to think I did some justice to my story. Now, for those that read my Harry Potter story, I promised a few updates as well as a few new stories. Well, they are still coming. All I ask is a little patience. Before any of you get on me for writing these characters differently then how they are portrayed in their respective series, this is fanfiction; I see them differently than their creators did and have them act as such. As always please review and tell me what you think.
