The Great Crossover Crisis Disclaimer: What?! You're still expecting a disclaimer after all of this? Kojiro: Ranma from Cat Fist Fury (AKA Saber Claw, Saber War Claw) B-Ranma: Ranma from Fighting Blind (AKA Perceptor, Mindsweeper) T-Ranma: Ranma from Ranmatech (AKA Prototype, Techno 1, Techno 2) D-Ranma: Ranma from Dragon Child (AKA Draco, Dragon Knight, Magna-Dragon Knight) P-Ranma: Ranma from Fist of the Pikachu (AKA Trainer, Ranko, Silver Senshi, Sailor Silver Star) < >: Thoughts (* *): Computer responses Chapter 6 Part 3 Showdown! "SAILOR SILVER STAR?!" The Inner and Outer Senshi gasped as they saw P-Ranma take off and charged at the gigantic Thunderclap. The Pokemon Trainer was feeling a sky-high rush as she darted through the air. The anti-gravity wings were cybernetically linked to the headdress she had on, which responded accordingly to her thoughts, making flying a snap. She streaked across the sky at well over 300 mph, making tight turns and evasive maneuvers, easily dodging the blasts of electricity being hurled at her. After riding on Wildfire, P-Ranma was quite used at moving at high-velocities. She then held out her arms and let loose with an electric attack. "Er… SILVER STAR LIGHTNING STRIKE!" The electrical bolt that shot from her hands was enormous! With the armor boosting her ki by a factor of ten, her normal Shock Attack took on a new meaning of the phrase of electrifying! The air crackled around her as she let loose with more than 200,000 volts! This knocked Thunderclap back as Sailor Silver Star shot up like a rocket, then dived down toward her opponent with an extended fist. "Pikachu!" It was at that moment that Raiden suddenly appeared from his Pokeball and rode on her back between the wings. The electric rodent began to power up, adding his increased electrical power to hers. P-Ranma smiled as she realized that Prototype's enhancements must have also modified her Pokeballs. The Pokemon within were now boosted along with herself. She smirked as an envelope of crackling power surrounded her winged form. She then put on a final burst of speed as she hurtled toward Thunderclap. "HEAVEN'S THUNDER!" KABOOOOOOOOM! Sailor Silver Star slammed through Thunderclap's chest and out through its back. The electric monster's inner energies were totally disrupted from the attack and could no longer hold together. The Soul Destroyer let off an anguished scream and then fell forward, exploding into a ball of sparks before dissipating. Sailor Silver Star landed lightly as Raiden settled on her right shoulder. "Good work, Raiden." "Pikachu!" Sailor Moon's jaw dropped to the ground as she stared at the gleaming armored Sailor Senshi. "Wow! Now why can't we get any stuff like that?" "METAL RIP CLAW!" Saber War Claw made a ferocious slash across Hard Rock's face after leaping high. He was more than ten meters away from Hard Rock, but the energy emitted from his new gauntlets lashed out like a blade and sliced into the rocky face of the Soul Destroyer. Large chunks of granite were chopped off, forcing the massive creation backward. "RISING SLASH KICK!" Landing on the ground, the Cat Fist fighter then did an inverted handspring and went shooting up, feet first. His feet glowed with increased ki power and cut into Hard Rock's chest, leaving a huge gash in it. Flipping in the air, the Neko Ken martial artist landed a few meters away from his flailing opponent and focused his ki while crossing his arms. He then delivered an amplified version of his Crescent Slash technique to finish it off. "CROSS-CLAW CUTTER!" Two huge, crescent-shaped blasts of ki were launched at Hard rock. The twin attacks slashed the monster diagonally; forming a huge X. The Soul Destroyer was reduced into a pile of rubble as it fell apart. Sailor Venus looked at the triumphant Kojiro hungrily. "Rowr, rowr." "DRAGON'S BREATH!" Draco had discovered that his normal Dragon Fire technique was now the equivalent to that of the Great Fire Dragon King of the South's. Unfortunately for the Water Wizard, its opponent was far too hot for it to handle. Despite the fish monster's attempts to extinguish his flames with huge geysers of water, Magna-Dragon Knight would simply evaporate them as soon as they splashed on him. Using ice attacks against him was also useless. The heat he generated from his battle aura alone would melt anything that got close to him. "TIME TO FRY!" Taking a cue from Sailor Silver Star, he shot up toward the sky, then made a power-dive toward his opponent. He became enveloped into flames and resembled a fiery comet. "METEOR DIVE!" Water Wizard sent up a huge column of water, but that did not stop Magna-Dragon Knight as he blasted through it and plowed hard into the Soul Destroyer. The fish monster exploded into a shower of cinders and the area where it stood went up in a large fireball. Amazingly, the flames quickly disappeared before they could spread and Magna-Dragon Knight rose from the ashen remains of his opponent like a phoenix. "Impossible!" Sailor Mercury said. Her visor was now having a fit, as it was unable to gauge the dragon warrior's power levels or anything else about him. "ICE CANNON!" Fire Storm let off a scream of horror as it was hit by a beam of unimaginable cold. Techno 2 had blasted away at it with a mind- boggling array of weaponry and now made a three-meter long cannon appear on one shoulder. The weapon was a Dramellion Freeze Cannon that he had picked up in the Alpha Centauri quadrant. The Soul Destroyer's fire was snuffed out in an instant as T-Ranma continued to pour it on. Soon the ice block that encased the beast began to crack, as the monster within became brittle. In one minute, Fire Storm broke apart into a billion pieces as its body shattered like cheap glass. "Where can I GET one of those?" Sailor Jupiter was NOT referring to the weapon. Meanwhile, Mindsweeper was mixing it up with the Shadow Stalker again. In addition to his augmented senses, B-Ranma had made another interesting discovery. His seventh sense was no longer just the passive radar sense. The ki he used to 'feel' his way around had the capability to become more solid! In other words, B-Ranma could now use his seventh sense as a weapon! "MIND WAVE!" His aura suddenly flared as the so-called Unseen Light became visible and lashed out, much like Sea Storm's Psychic Tsunami. The light drove the shadow demon back. B-Ranma then launched a huge ball of ki. "SEEKER STORM!" The sphere exploded into a dozen smaller comets that buzzed around the monster, keeping it occupied as the blind fighter used his senses to locate Shadow Stalker's weak point. The Unseen Light fighter snorted as he discovered that it still had the same control nucleus as before. He aimed his new double-edged lightsaber at it and focused his ki into it. The energy blades became even brighter as he hurled it toward his target. Shadow Stalker reared back and roared as the weapon stabbed into its being and pierced its nucleus. The homing ki blasts also struck its weak point, ensuring its demise. The dark monster faded away into nothingness as B-Ranma deftly caught his falling weapon. "Awesome!" Sailor Mars said, as she beheld the blind warrior standing triumphantly. He looked so heroic! "Good work team!" Techno 2 said as he joined the others with the Sailor Senshi. "Man! That Ultra Armor is so COOL!" Jupiter said. P-Ranma nodded as he turned to his comrades. "Yes, well you guys better power down and save your strength. I have a feeling that we're going to need all the power we can get. This was just a skirmish." "THAT was a skirmish?" Sailor Moon said incredulously. The technowarrior nodded as he mentally commanded his Phase II Exo-Armor to disappear and his Phase I Exo-Armor to reappear. "Yes. Didn't you notice something strange?" "What do you mean?" Sailor Mercury asked as she and the rest of the Senshi gathered around the Justice Five. "Didn't you notice that those Soul Hunters were not trying to drain the life energies of anyone?" "Hey, yeah! They were just on the rampage." Kojiro said as he deactivated his Ultra Armor and shifted back to being Saber Claw. Unlike Prototype, he and the other Ranmas did not have nanites to help deal with the sudden output of power they had experienced with their transformations. They had all begun to feel the strain as their bodies had been pushed to the limits, despite the fact that the battle only lasted a couple of minutes. They would need some time to recover. "Now that you mention it, I am curious as to why they appeared here, instead of a densely populated area." Magna-Dragon Knight became Dragon Knight again. His dragon physiology had allowed him to endure the power boost better, and he wasn't as winded as his comrades. Sailor Silver Star nodded as she powered down to being the Silver Senshi again. "You don't suppose that this was all just a diversion, do you? That maybe something big is going to happen?" "I'd say that that it's a good bet. We didn't even see those three people that usually accompany those Soul Hunters." T-Ranma said. "Then we'll have to find out… ooohh!" B-Ranma trembled a bit as he powered down. Sailor Mars moved forward with her arms held out to catch him as he began to fall forward. However, B-Ranma held out his hand and righted himself before she could get too close. "I'm all right. Thank you." "Are you sure you're all right, Perceptor?" T-Ranma asked, though he suspected something was amiss. "I'm fine. Don't worry about me." The blind fighter reassured as he took a deep breath, then stood up straight. Prototype frowned but said nothing. B-Ranma sensed the doubt within his comrade and said, "Don't you dare think about leaving me out of this! I can handle it! Besides, we all agreed to see this through and I CAN hold my own. Remember back on Lina Inverse's world?" T-Ranma remembered indeed. If it weren't for B-Ranma's Spirit Beam, that world would have perished. The technological Ranma reluctantly nodded and said, "All right. You're coming with us. Just one thing." He turned to face his other counterparts. "The Ultra Armor put a really bad strain on all of you, so I'd suggest that you save it for when you really need it. I hope that we won't need to use the Mega Armor." "MEGA ARMOR?!" The Sailor Senshi couldn't believe that there was something that could make the Justice Five even stronger. Sailor Jupiter thought. T-Ranma sighed. Some time later… The Sailor Senshi and the Justice Five had agreed to join forces and were now split into several groups to go search for their hidden enemy. T-Ranma's scanners and B-Ranma's senses had detected huge energy trails that emanated near Mt Fuji. Since they were similar to what the Soul Destroyers had emitted, they decided to concentrate their search in that area. P-Ranma had decided to lend her Pokemon to aid in the search. Sailor Mars and B-Ranma were riding around on Wildfire. The blind fighter became a bit edgy as the Senshi of Fire clasped her arms around his waist and held him tightly. The hidden emotions that he sensed from her didn't make him feel all that comfortable. Sailors Mars on the other hand loved the feel of his muscular frame, and let off a quiet sigh. In another area, Sailor Venus giggled as she rode a huge saber-tooth tiger. She loved to run her hands through that shiny black coat.and couldn't help herself as she frequently scratched behind Kojiro's ears. The Neko Ken fighter had to fight against his playful urges as a feline. Minako was scratching at just the right place where his Ucchan loved to rub. High above, Sailor Mercury and Draco zipped across the skies. The dragon warrior didn't mind the company but he was a bit confused as the blue-haired Senshi kept on asking if she could perform a few examinations on him. As for Prototype, who was paired up with Sailor Jupiter, it was more along the lines of… "So do you have a girlfriend?" "Uh, no?" "Are you looking for one?" "Uh…?" "Say what's your favorite color? Do you like green?" Sailor Jupiter asked shyly. "Well, I…" "What's your idea of the perfect girlfriend?" Meanwhile on the ground near the foot of the Mt. Fuji, Sailor Moon, Neptune, Uranus, Chiba-Moon, Saturn and the Silver Senshi were exploring some caves. Wind Rider flew overhead, as Razor and Raiden were busy sniffing things out on the ground. "Wow! These elemental allies of yours are so COOL!" Chiba-Moon exclaimed as she swept up Raiden and gave him a hug. "You're SOOO cute!" "Put it down." Sailor Moon said as she placed a hand on her daughter's shoulder. "Pika…" Raiden's natural reflex to being suddenly picked up by a stranger was to.... "I wouldn't do that…" The Silver Senshi began. "Chu!" ZZZAPPP! "Owie." Sailor Moon groaned. "Real… cute…" Sailor Chiba-Moon whimpered. Sailor Chiba-Moon was sprawled on the floor with her mother. Their eyes were glazed. Their hair was frazzled and they were a little on the crispy side. Fortunately, Raiden had only given them a minor shock; only a mere 1,000 volts. Sailor Uranus and the other Senshi had sweatdrops on the backs of their heads as they stared at the still smoking Sailor Moon and Chiba-Moon. Sailor Saturn stepped forward to administer her healing powers. "Slash!" The Silver Senshi turned to where her Sandslash was indicating. "What is it, Razor?" The mouse pointed to a solid rock wall and then extended one of its claws. Ranko noticed that the claw disappeared into the wall. It was at that time that Wildfire came galloping toward the entrance of the cave. B-Ranma had also followed the energy trail. Soon the rest of the search parties came to scene as P-Ranma used her ki to dispel the illusion. Deep below the ground under Mt. Fuji, Blodia's power build-up continued as his three minions watched in awe. It wouldn't be long before their master would have enough power to destroy the planet's core. The headquarters was hidden within a maze of caverns and there was a shaft that lead directly to the molten core of the Earth. Once Blodia had built up enough energy, he would send a blast down the shaft and start a chain reaction that would cause the surface of the planet to split apart. The resulting detonation would implode the planet and release all the life forces all at once! It was then that the alarms went off and Necton used a viewing portal to see who the intruders were. "Master! The Justice Five and the Sailor Senshi have found the entrance to our base!" "Impossible! They defeated the Soul Destroyers?" Haldin gasped. "WHAT?! I'M NOT READY YET! GO AND DELAY THEM! AT ALL COSTS!" Blodia commanded as he speeded up the process to destroy the Earth. At the Time Gates… "They'd better hurry." The first cloaked figure said. "I wish we could help them." The second figure said. "You know we can't do anything more but guide them to their final destination." "I know." Back on Earth, B-Ranma sensed a massive surge of power as he and the others traveled deeper into the cavernous regions of Blodia's lair. Then he sensed someone else coming their way. "Guys! We've got company!" On cue, the three servants of Blodia appeared before them. "So, you had defeated our Soul Destroyers. Very impressive!" Necton said. "However, you are too late!" Haldin sneered. "Our great Master Blodia is just minutes away from destroying this pathetic world!" "WHAT?!" Everyone gasped as T-Ranma began scanning with his eyes. A few thousand meters below their position, the nanotech soldier detected a being of immense power and then scanned a shaft that led directly to the Earth's core, thousands of miles below. "My god! He's going to destroy the Earth's core!" Already the caverns began to tremble as Blodia's power climbed even further. "Correct, Techno 1!" Parat scoffed. "Lord Blodia had grown tired of these delays and decided to unleash this planet's life forces all at once. Can imagine the feast that awaits our master when this word's vast life essences are released with the destruction of this mudball? An added bonus is that he shall be rid of both the Sailor Senshi and the Justice Five, all in one fell swoop!" "There is nothing that you can do to stop him!" Necton declared as he and his cohorts powered up. "We'll see about that!" Sailor Moon said as she and the other Senshi began tense up for the battle. "HA!" Haldin sneered. "You were just barely able to survive against our Soul Hunters! If it weren't for the Silver Senshi and the Justice Five, you would have been nothing but a memory! We are FAR MORE powerful than even the Soul Destroyers! Just what makes you think that you can hope to get past us?" "We are the champions of love and justice! We are the defenders of this world and enemy to all that is evil! We are the SAILOR SENSHI!" Sailor Moon said as she bolstered up her courage. "I am SAILOR MOON!" The other Senshi also joined in. "I AM SAILOR MARS!" "I AM SAILOR MERCURY!" "I AM SAILOR VENUS!" "I AM SAILOR JUPITER!" "I AM SAILOR CHIBA-MOON!" "I AM SAILOR SATURN!" "I AM SAILOR URANUS!""I AM SAILOR NEPTUNE!" Sailor Moon then said, "And in the name of the Moon…." "WE WILL PUNISH YOU!" They all said together. Haldin and her comrades groaned. "Another good thing about destroying this world is that we won't have to hear those stupid speeches. It feels as if we're in a cartoon!" Sailor Moon turned to the Justice Five. "Go! Stop Blodia! We'll handle these creeps! We've got a score to settle with them!" "But…" Silver Senshi began. She knew they hadn't a chance against these three. Sailor Moon shook her head and said, "From what we've seen, you may be the only Senshi that has the power to save us all! You and the Justice Five can end this!" Ranko bit down as she heard these words. She wasn't a Senshi. She was a fake, a copy, nothing but an imitation. "Sailor Moon, I'm afraid that you're wrong. I'm not a Senshi." Sailor Moon smiled and said, "I had a feeling that you didn't come from the Silver Millennium like we did. But you fought for truth and justice. You fought with the heart and spirit of a Senshi. As far as I'm concerned, you ARE A SAILOR SENSHI! NOW GO!" Sailor Moon's speech was corny, but she did feel warmth in her heart at her acceptance. At the Time Gate… "Well, I have to admit, Usagi may not be as scatterbrained as people believe." "At least she's got an open mind. Not like some OTHER people." The second person glared at Setsuna who was still in her crystal prison. Down on Earth, P-Ranma turned to her counterparts, who all nodded and headed down to where Blodia was. Before joining them, the Silver Senshi removed her belt of Pokeballs and said in a dramatic voice, "Let my Elemental Allies be your protectors, Sailor Senshi! RAIDEN, WILDFIRE, SEA STORM, RAZOR, BRUISER, WIND RIDER! THE SAILOR SENSHI CHOOSE YOU!" The Pokemon burst out of their Pokeballs and took positions near the Sailor Senshi. P-Ranma nodded to them as she turned around to aid her comrades against Blodia. Raiden powered up his electric sacs as he stood beside Usagi. The other Pokemon also began powering up as the three Servants of Blodia unleashed their attack. Down where Blodia was about to unleash his power to destroy the Earth's core, the dark being saw some people rushing into his chambers. He roared as he saw who it was, the Justice Five. "HOLY…!" Kojiro gasped as he and the others saw Blodia. The monster that had caused all of the misery and suffering to this world was a writhing mass of tentacles with one huge eye at its center. He was enormous and seemed to be a pulsating, purple blob the size of a football arena. Blodia was an ancient being, older than when the solar system had formed and Earth was just a molten ball. Now it's one great eye glared at the gnats that had thwarted his plans at every turn. "NO! I WILL NOT BE STOPPED NOW!" He let off a blood-curdling howl as several Soul Hunters and Gatherers that he had been keeping in reserve emerged from various passageways and attacked the Justice Five. T-Ranma took one scan of the attackers and Blodia and knew that they needed the heavy artillery. "ULTRA ARMOR ENERGIZE!" The four other Ranmas followed suit and soon became Mindsweeper, Saber War Claw, and Magna-Dragon Knight. They followed Techno 2 as they clashed with Blodia's defenders. Back at the other end, the Sailor Senshi were giving their all to defeat the three servants. With the help of P-Ranma's Pokemon, they were holding their own against them. Sailor Uranus fell down after being hit by a blast from Haldin. She was dazed from the attack and was unable to move out of the way as Haldin followed up with another lethal bolt. Luckily, Sea Storm rushed up to get in between them and erected a psychic shield. "Golduck!" Parat was getting frustrated as he tried to obliterate Sailor Mars and Mercury. Unfortunately, every time he aimed at them, his shots would be intercepted or deflected by ki blasts from Bruiser and Wind Rider. He was then slammed backward as the Pidgeotto let loose with his Wind Cannon. Necton smirked as he stood over a downed Sailor Jupiter and was about to deliver the killing blow. That was when something landed on his back. "Pika… CHUUUUUU!!!!!!" Raiden's Thundershock was quite powerful as compared to other Pikachu or Raichu. At point-blank range, it was… SHOCKING! Back at Blodia's lair, the Justice Five in their Ultra Armor was just polishing off the last of their opponents, when they saw Blodia begin to glow with a strange light. T-Ranma knew that the monster was near to releasing all that energy to destroy the Earth's core. Drastic steps would have to be made. He couldn't risk using his super anti-matter cannon, so… "Guys! Switch to the Mega Armor!" Back to where the Sailor Senshi were battling the three servants, Necton screamed as his battered and burned body fell to land beside the unconscious forms of his comrades. Nearby, a bruised and battered group of Sailor Senshi stood triumphantly with P-Ranma's Pokemon. "T-T-Thank you." Sailor Moon gasped as she petted the tired and exhausted Pikachu. She then nodded to the other Pokemon. "Thank you all. We couldn't have beaten them without you." "Machop!" "Pidgooo!" "Slash!" "Golduck!" "Neigh!" "Pika…" The Sailor Senshi and Pokemon then rushed down the cavernous tunnel that led to Blodia. As they entered the lair, they saw the Justice Five initiate their Mega-transformations. All five raised their arms and said… "MEGA-ARMOR ENERGIZE!" Five beams of light came down, each surrounding a member and replacing their ultra armor with new suits. With T-Ranma, his Phase II Exo-Armor was replaced with the Phase III version. "TECHNO 2… ARMOR ENERGIZE TO…" A far more robust armored suit replaced the previous one. Large, dual-barreled proton cannons appeared on each shoulder. Below them on separate mounts were multiple micro-missile launchers. A beam cannon projector appeared on the breastplate. The gauntlets now sported heavy, triple barreled particle guns and built-in beam sabers. The backpack section had larger wings and extra launchers. The boots were replaced with turbo-kick boots for that extra impact. He stood ready in front of a picture of an exploding nova. "… TECHNO 3!" For Kojiro… "SABER WAR CLAW…ARMOR ENERGIZE TO…" His clawed gauntlets became thicker and sharper. The guard pads then molded themselves to his shoulder epaulets. Kojiro decided that in order for him to fully utilize his Cat Powers, he would have to go to full tiger mode. He did so and the armor adjusted to fit over his head and back. A missile rack appeared on each of his flanks and his legs became encased in leg armor. He struck a pose in front of a black background with red slash marks. He found out that a special synthesizer allowed him to speak in feline mode. "… MECHA WAR CAT!" For Draco… "MAGNA-DRAGON KNIGHT… ARMOR ENERGIZE TO…" The crimson armor was stripped away to be replaced with black armor that was bulkier, yet still allowed him to move about with ease. His wings were also outfitted with metallic frames. His hands became encased in fancy, dragonhead gauntlets. (Think of the Sheng Long from Gundam Wing). He let off gouts of fire from one gauntlet as he stood with his Crimson Fang at the ready. "…DRAGON KNIGHT PRIME!" For B-Ranma… "MINDSWEEPER… ARMOR ENERGIZE TO…" The blind man was encased in dark blue armor; very similar to his Ultra Armor, but he now sported a helmet that covered his entire head. His double-edged beam saber became a variation poleaxe on one end and a kind of naginata on the other. His back also sported spikelike projections, which were actually advanced sensory antennae. B-Ranma was astounded at how much more his range had increased. His senses were now so finely tuned, that he could actually read fine print from a distance of five miles! His sixth and seventh senses were now comparable to the abilities of very powerful psychics. "… MIND STORMER!" As for Ranko (I know you were waiting to see what she became)… "SAILOR SILVER STAR… ARMOR ENERGIZE TO…" Her wings wrapped around her body, obscuring her form from sight. A bright flash of light was glimpsed from within. Her wings then became less rounded and sharper, taking on a metallic shine (think of Archangel from X-Men). When the wings opened up, new armor units formed over her Ultra Armor. A fancy visor replaced her headdress. Her epaulets became sleeker and more detailed. Her skirt flared with brightest silver and her boots glistened with a combination of gold and silver trim. Her gloves lengthened to almost reach her shoulders. A new symbol of an exploding star appeared on her chest as she took a pose in front of her Silver Star insignia. "… SAILOR NOVA!" "Sailor… Nova." Sailor Moon breathed out as she and the other Senshi watched in awe. The new Justice Five began assaulting the gelatinous Blodia with their increased powers. "DRAGON FANG!" "TIGER'S RAGE!" "WING BARRAGE!" "PLASMA BUSTER!" "PSYCHIC WAVE!" Blodia howled as he was blasted from all sides by the Justice Five, but refused to concede defeat. He needed just a little more time. He endured the merciless pounding that he was receiving as the concentrated every ounce of his power to the task. When his aura turned black, he began laughing and said in a final gloat, "NOW YOU DIE!" He then sent the blast hurtling down the shaft toward the Earth's core. "NO!" Techno 3 said as he called for his ship to transport him to the Earth's core. He found himself hovering just above the molten center of the Earth. In less than a couple of seconds, the Blodia's blast would come crashing down on top of him and the core. (*Affirmative!*) T-Ranma had not wanted to risk using the anti-matter cannon for fear of accidentally destroying the core during the battle. Now, the super weapon was the only thing that could stop Blodia's energy from hitting the core. The technological Ranma pointed the cannon straight up and fired. There was a massive flare as anti-matter clashed with dark energies, but as it had done with Lina Inverse's Dragon Slave, the anti-matter ate up the energy and kept on going. The cavern where Blodia and the others were rumbled as the beam came up and shot up through the roof to explode out of the top of Mt. Fuji. Fortunately, T-Ranma had aimed the beam away from where his friends were. However, Blodia could not dodge the beam entirely and was sent up along with it! Apparently, Blodia did manage to erect a barrier to protect himself from the anti-matter beam and was not vaporized with the top of the mountain. However, since the cannon was not set at a higher level, the beam it produced eventually ran out. The huge monster went crashing down onto the landscape, causing seismic tremors to shake the island of Japan. Inside the cavern, T-Ranma reappeared next to his comrades and then commanded his ship to transport them all out of the mountain. Just as they all dematerialized, Blodia's lair came crashing down on itself. The group rematerialized outside near the foot of Mt. Fuji and was shocked to see that Blodia had survived and was now preparing to attack the city of Tokyo. "Give it another shot Techno 3!" "I can't." Techno 3 said. "The Annihilator will take some time to recharge. We're out of time!" "No, we're not." P-Ranma insisted as she spread her wings and flew down to land at the outskirts of Tokyo. "What's she doing?" Usagi asked as she and the others watched Sailor Nova take a stance. B-Ranma wondered himself as he extended his senses. "Oh I see." He chuckled a bit at the joke. "What's going on?" Kojiro asked. "Remember when Techno 3 told us that the Mega Armor increases our powers by about a hundred times? Well I do believe that Sailor Nova is about to use an attack that could match the Spirit Beam I used on that meteor." "You mean… an amplified Hyper Beam?!" Draco asked. "Pika…" Raiden and the other Pokemon watched in a amazement as their trainer began to glow a bright gold. "You betcha!" It was true. Sailor Nova was taking a stance and powering up all of her remaining stores of energy. Using the Mega Armor was straining her even more than the Ultra Armor, but she knew of no other way of stopping Blodia. As the huge and disgusting blob advanced on the city, the pseudo-Senshi decided that she might as well play her role to the fullest. "TO PROTECT THE UNIVERSE FROM DEVASTATION!" A small ball of orange energy began to form between her cupped hands. "TO SAVE ALL INNOCENTS WITHOUT HESITATION!" The energy began to grow. "TO DEFEND THE VALUES OF TRUTH AND LOVE!" The sphere was now the size of a basketball. "BY BLASTING BLODIA TO THE STARS ABOVE!" The energy ball was now held above her head and was the size of a car. "I AM SAILOR NOVA!" The energy was now the size of a small house. "I AM THE COSMIC SAILOR-SUITED WARRIOR OF JUSTICE AND LIGHT!" The citizens then began fleeing in terror as they saw a huge blob coming toward them. "DIE BLODIA, FOR YOU HAVE LOST THE FIGHT!" The energy sphere crackled and elongated into a massive beam as she threw her hands forward. "NOVA… COSMIC… CANNON!" Blodia let off one final scream as the biggest Hyper Beam in history struck him. He had used up most of his energy to survive the Annihilator at 1/100,000ths of its power. Now something equivalent to B-Ranma's Spirit Beam was blasting into him. There was one massive explosion as the entity went up in a huge energy geyser. Some distance away, the Sailor Senshi all watched in awe as Sailor Nova collapsed to her knees. The Mega Armor then disappeared, leaving her in her guise of the Silver Senshi. Sailor Jupiter then turned to Sailor Moon. "Sailor Moon?" "Yes?" "When can we sign her up?" At the Time Gates… "Way to go, Sailor Nova!" "Not bad!" Even Setsuna had to admit. "Not bad at all." A few weeks later… "Do you have to leave?" Usagi asked as she and the others were standing in a filed where the Ranmas were preparing to board the ship. During the last few weeks, the Sailor Senshi and the five dimensional Ranmas had revealed themselves to each other, even though the Ranmas already knew about their secret identities. "Yes I mean, we could really USE a SENSHI like you!" Amy said as she addressed P-Ranma. She and the others were still a little uneasy after the Pokemon trainer had revealed himself as a guy. Though Micharu and Haruka found that aspect to be most… intriguing, they were especially interested with his girl curse. P-Ranma wanted to get out quick. "Sorry girls, but I'm hanging up my fuku." P-Ranma said as he warmly shook their hands. "Though I have to admit. It was kick while it lasted." "Are you sure that you and the others won't change you mind?" Usagi asked. "I mean, we can all work together and fight any future bad guys and…" "I'm afraid not. We really have to get going." T-Ranma said as he approached them. "The others are saying their good-byes now. You guys should be all right now that Blodia isn't around. Oh and by the way." "Yes?" "You might want to stop with those speeches of yours. I swear that they last longer than the battles." Usagi laughed nervously as she had a large sweatdrop on her head. P-Ranma sighed as he called for his Pokemon. Rene was crying a bit as Raiden and the others rejoined their master's side. Minako sighed sadly as she received a peck on the cheek by Kojiro. She wasn't happy that he was leaving, nor did she like it when he told her that he had a fiancée waiting for him back home. Makoto was the same. Her heart had stopped when she saw the handsome face beneath Techno 1's helmet and she was now being denied another potential boyfriend. As for Rae and B-Ranma, they had found kindred spirits within each other. Both were extremely empathic. Rae was very surprised to learn that he was blind, but his quiet charm and gentle personality soon had her yearning for him. She too was going to miss him. As the ship began powering up its engines, the five Ranmas began talking about their adventures thus far. "Man! It's been a wild ride so far!" Draco said. "I'll say! This world has been pretty exciting! I wonder what the next world will be like?" B-Ranma asked. "Just so long as I don't have to wear a fuku or make long-winded speeches." P-Ranma said with a smirk. He then turned to T-Ranma. "By the way, are you sure that we can't use the Ultra or Mega Armor any more?" "Nope! You guys burned them out! Besides, you do remember the side effects, right? The armor made your bodies more energy efficient, but it also caused them to be hyper-metabolic. You guys burned up a lot of calories and almost that restaurant into bankruptcy! I'm just glad I had enough to pay for that meal! You all ate more than three divisions!" "Sorry about that, but we were SO hungry!" B-Ranma said. "That's okay guys. So are you ready?" All four nodded as T-Ranma activated the ship's drive. As the Sailor Senshi waved to them, the craft lifted off the ground and rose toward the sky. In a matter of seconds, it was gone from sight. At the Time Gate… "IT'S ABOUT TIME!" Setsuna huffed as the crystal prison was dissolved. Of course, the two figures would not return her powers until they left. "Oh don't get your fuku in a knot! We told you that we would free you when our business was done and here you are." The first person said. "Your powers will return when we leave and then you can go back to interfering with time and manipulating things so your precious Crystal Tokyo will be a reality." The second hooded person said nonchalantly. "HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO ME? JUST WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!" It was at that moment that the two decided to pull down their hoods. Setsuna's eyes widened as she saw their faces. "IT… CAN'T BE!" "Remember this Setsuna." The first one said as he wagged a finger at her. "If we had not sent those five to this world, then it, along with the Sailor Senshi would have been destroyed. Things wouldn't have gotten any better if we had let you intervene." "That's for sure." The second one said. "Therefore, we shall now let you see what would have happened if we had not stopped you." With a wave of the second person's hand, the time gate began showing images of the dark timeline that had been averted. Setsuna almost threw up when she saw her own, horrible demise after she had destroyed the five Ranmas. The other Senshi also perished horribly and the world was plunged into oblivion. The time gate then stopped showing images as the two strangers prepared to depart. "You shall find the future timelines to be exactly as you had seen it before. One more thing though. We suggest that you stop trying to push for that future that you want and actually perform your job as the Senshi of Time." "That means NO INTERFERENCE!" The second person stressed as he and his partner replaced their hoods. "People were meant to make their own decisions, Setsuna. It won't do for you to play god. You're not very good at it. Leave that job to the expert, Kami-sama." With those words, the two vanished, leaving Setsuna to ponder over their words. To be continued… Author's notes Well, that concludes this dimensional hop. Sorry this part doesn't seem as hilarious as the others, but I had finally run through my silly phase and we can now move forward. In the next chapter, the five Ranmas shall meet up with… Teaser "RANMA NO BAKA!"
