RDX original idea: Brent Hirose and Justin Rives
Ranma 1/2 original idea: Takahashi Rumiko (Of whose footsteps I am not worthy to wallow in) 

(Note: This is NOT a crossover between Ranma 1/2 and Akira. Akira is a 
character in this series. Ok, now that that's done, Enjoy!)

Prologue________________________

  Imagine. Imagine if all our fantasys had, an alternate reality. Imagine 
that the fantasy we call Ranma 1/2 had one, or many, too. Imagine, that one 
of them was just like the normal one. Almost. Welcome to the Ranma 1/2 reality
I like to call RDX, Ranma Dimension X, Just the same, with the exception of 5
characters. 5, who turn  little change into a big one......

(Two figures slowly enter the seen, walking together. Slowly they sit down, 
staring at the moon. Staring into each others eyes they draw close, when 
suddenly, a noise breaks the calm.)

Akane: Ranma no Baka! *SMASH!*

  (Suddenly, from a nearby building, a figure flies from the roof, crashing
between the couple.)

Ranma: Uhhh.... hi! Nice night, huh?

  (The sun rises over the horizon, the start of a new Saturday morning. The 
seen switches to the Tendo school, minus 4 square feet of roof. The seen 
disintegrates to the interior of the dojo.)

Ranma: Akane! Ouch! That hurts!!!!

(We see Ranma, with his wounds being treated by Akane, as the rest of the 
family sits watching TV)

Akane: Ranma! If you keep squirming I'll never clean this cut!

Ranma: Well, if you hadn't hit me you wouldn't need to!!

Nibiki: Will you two shut up?! We are TRYING to watch this show!!

(Ranma and Akane simultaneously pout)

Akane: Well, you didn't have to interrupt Ukyou's date! Now her new boyfriend
will never talk to her again!(whispering) And just when I thought she was 
over you!

Ranma: What was that???

Akane:(suddenly sits up) Nothing!

Ranma: Anyway, as if I could control my flight after being hit in the head!

Panda-Genma: (sign) Shut up!!!!

Ranma:(angry) Dad...

Panda-Genma: Grrrrr...

Nibiki: Hey! Stop fighting! The 9:00 news are on!

Ranma: What??!! 9:00?? I'm late!!!!

(Ranma picks up a jacket and runs out the door)

Akane: Ranma! Wait up!

(Akane follows)

Nibiki: Oh well, got nothing better to do.

(Nibiki runs out too)

______________________________________________________________________________
 
 (We see Ranma and Akane running down the street, talking)

Akane: Ranma, what are you late for???

Ranma: A martial arts contest.

Akane: Big surprise. You're always in them, why is this one so important?

Ranma: (Gaping) You don't know??? It's the Supreme Fighting Champ.!!

Akane: Cool! Where do I sign up???

Ranma: Sorry, but you can't! Sign up was yesterday.(Mumbles) Good thing too,
you MIGHT be able to beat me!

Akane: What was that?

Ranma: Nothing! (Visualizes Akane beating him, as all of the onlookers laugh 
at him)

Akane: Oh well, we're here!

(Ranma Looks up. He sees a large building with banners announcing the 
championship all over. They enter)

______________________________________________________________________________

  ( As the pair enter, they see a long line to enter the stadium. Ranma sees a 
door with the words FIGHTERS on it. As they enter the door a man stops them.)

Man: Hey! Who are you?

Ranma: Ranma Saotome.

Man: O.K., go in. Hey! Who are you???

Akane: Akane Tendo.

Man: Sorry, you're not on the list. in the line, admission is 1000 yen.

(Akane sees that she forgot her purse)

Akane: Uhh.... I'm his..... Coach!

Man: I'm not sure. A girl teaching a guy? That

*SMASH!!!!*

(Akane's fist is engraved in the man's forehead)

Man: O.K., go in.

______________________________________________________________________________

  (The ring is huge, and in the middle the announcer in doing a roll call.)

Announcer: Last call! Ranma Saotome? Are you here?

Ranma: Here!

Announcer: Good. Tetsou Shiama???

Fighter: Here.

Announcer: O.K., Akira Hirose?

Fighter: Here.

Announcer: That's a pretty stupid name, if you ask m.....

Fighter: KIE FIREBALL!!!!! ( Blast of energy slams into him)

Announcer: Ouch! Ok! Akane Tenso?

Fighter: She's sick and....

Nibiki: She's here! (Runs over, hands Akane her gi and the fighter 10000 yen)

Announcer: What??

Fighter: Nothing, nothing.

Akane: I'm here. The last name is TENDO O.K.?

Announcer: Boy, that's a pretty stupid....

*Smack!*

(Akane's hand in worn in the announcer's scull)

Announcer: Ok.......

______________________________________________________________________________

 (The fighters head to the dressing room, leaving Ranma Akane and a Fighter 
left)

Akane: Good Luck.

Ranma: I won't need it. 

Akane: You baka! It would serve you right if you lost this tournament!

Ranma: (Once again sees Akane winning the championship as all of the other 
fighters laugh at him) Ok, Ok, Thanks.

(Akane leaves, leaving Ranma and a fighter alone in the ring.)

Ranma: Hello?

Fighter:(Looking into space)

Ranma: HELLO??

Fighter: Oh, hi.

Ranma: Hey! You're that Akira guy!
  
Akira: Uhh... yeah

(The two walk into the changing room talking)

______________________________________________________________________________

( The lights shine on the ring as the fighters exit and the announcer calls 
out their names.)

Nibiki: Go guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(The announcer begins to call out the first fighters.)

Announcer: Ok, for the first match, Hirose, Akria and  Takiwaki Kuno!

( The seen switches to Ranma, sitting by Akane, Ukyou, Shampoo and Mousse who 
all have entered the tournament.)

Announcer: And for the woman's fight, Ten....Tendo, Akane and uhhh... 
Shampoo???

(The two get up)

Announcer: Judges, READY? Fighters, READY??? FIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

( The fights begin, With Shampoo and Akane slamming each other with punches at
each other, as Akira and Kuno are still standing, waiting for someone to 
move.)

Mousse: Who is the fighter?

Ukyou: Yeah! He's kinda cute.

Ranma: His name is Akira, and he wants to be the best fighter in the world.
He says he's really good, but he always goes into a trance, and loses all 
concept of time. Did you see that cool move he did?

Mousse: Uhh.... no.

Ranma: Go figure.
______________________________________________________________________________

Kuno: Prepare to die fool

Akira:(Looking in into space)...........

Kuno: What? Are you so arrogant as not to take the might of I, Takiwaki Kuno
as a threat??????

Akira:..........

Kuno:(Confused) Hello?

Akira:.........

Kuno: DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 (Kuno runs up with his bokken, and smashes it over Akira's head. Akira looks 
startled.)

Akira: Ouch!

(Suddenly, a loud cat's cry fills the room. Ranma freaks out looking for a cat, 
but doesnt see one. Akane and Shampoo stop fighting and look for the source 
of the sound and the announcer tries to calm everybody down)

Akane:(Looks up) What the...

(A white blur appears on the rafters)

Akira: Oh yeah! KIE BEAM!!!!!

(Suddenly, from the tip of his finger shoots out a beam of kie energy)

Akira:(Kicks Kuno in the face) KIE FIREBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(An explosion ignites in Kunos face, sending him to the ground. All the 
crowed looks at Akira in awe.)

Announcer: (Stunned) And the winner is Hirose Akira...........

Akane: Better finish this fight. (Kicks the still bewildered shampoo in the 
head, then the stomach) Ki-jah!

(Just as Akane is about to finish the combination, the wall behind her blows 
up, and a figure steps out.)

Akane: Who is he????

Figure: Akira!!!! I have come to kill you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Commercial)

Figure: Akira!!!!! I have come to kill you!!!!!

Akira: Oh, hi. Nice to see you too. What do you want??? 

Figure:(Steps into the light to reveal a blonde guy, about the same height as
Ranma wearing the same style of clothes.) I, Tomio Sasaki am here to kill you
for your sin! I thought you where a honorable fighter! DIE!!!!!!!!!!

(Tomio Rushes in, slamming into Akira.)

Akira: Hey! What have I ever done to you?????

Tomio:(Rips of his shirt to reveal a large scar all across his chest)
What have you done???? You have stolen my soul!!!!!! (Grabs Akira's neck)

Akira: Hey!!! Do.... you have... proof????

Tomio: Yes.  You remember when we met, and fought at the Fungi Mountains, the 
next day, my soul was gone, and this scar to replace it! I asked the wise 
ones, and they told me that Akira stole my soul!!! You must have stolen it!

Akira: Did they give you a last name??

Tomio:(puzzled) Uhh.... no.

Akira:(furious) THEN IT COULD BE ANY @#$%&* AKIRA IN THIS WHOLE *%#@%#* WORLD!!

Tomio: Hey! You're right! I guess I'll have to kill ALL the Akira's in the 
world! I'll start with you!

(Just as Tomio readies himself, he sees Akane in the crowed. He instantly 
falls in love.)

________________________________________________________________________

 (Ranma  balances himself on the rafters, looking to see what was making the 
noise.)

Ranma: Ok.

(Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he sees a cat balancing on the 
grinder. As Ranma turns his head he sees the cat looks kind of offball. So
Much that Ranma isn't even afraid. Suddenly the grinder breaks)

Ranma: OH NO

(Suddenly a rope flies out and Ranma catches the rope then throws the grinder
in the only place no one is. The entrance.)
________________________________________________________________________

(Ryoga was really lost this time. As he looked around he saw banners 
announcing a fighting championship. As he approached he saw that the doors 
were closed but with a good kick it fell down. The cries of people filled his
ears. )

Ryoga: Good. Maybe they know where my bathroom is!

( Ryoga instatly remebers one of the people there. As anger filled him, he 
perpared to attack. Suddenly a steel grinder smashed him in the face.)

________________________________________________________________________

 (Ranma pulled himself up, but he couldnt see where the rope had come from 
or where the cat had come from. Suddenly he herd a swear coming from the 
entrance.)

Ranma: Oh boy.

________________________________________________________________________

 (Akira was stunned. One minute, Tomio a fighter he had learned the kie 
fireball technique from on the Fungi Mountains, was trying to kill him, the 
next he was talking to this girl. Akira felt lucky. He knew he was the best 
fighter in the world. The wise ones had told him. Residing on the Fungi 
mountains, they knew all, but they would only tell you one answer. Tomio was 
trying to figure out what he was going to ask when they fought. Akira's only 
problem was that he always blanked out wile fighting. Suddenly a metal 
grinder just passed over his head. )

Ryoga: Who did that???????????????

Akira: Whats HE doing here??

________________________________________________________________________

Akane: Uhh... no. Who are you???

  (Akane was stunned. This guy had walked up to her and started talking to 
her. He had already told her who he was but she was so stunned she forgot. 
This guys behavior reminded her of Ryoga. As a matter of fact, right after he
had told her his story again, Ryoga ran in and slammed into him)

Ryoga: TOMIO!!!!!! YOU MADE ME BREAK MY ARM!!!!

Tomio: I SAID GO RIGHT! ITS NOT MY FAULT YOU FELL OFF MT. FUJI!!! 

Akira: Ryoga! You left just when we where gonna fight!

Ryoga: Its not my fault! The building is super hard to find!

Akira: We where right at its entrance!

(Fighting starts. Hole fill the walls and floor. Suddenly a voice booms 
through.)

Person: I am Hiro Otomo! Hie!

(As the figure jumps into the light, we see a tall figure, dark raven hair 
covering the right side of his  face, and a toothpick in his mouth, wearing 
a large coat.)

Hiro: Akira! Tomio! Stop!

 (The fighters stop, and seeing this, Ryoga stops too. Suddenly, Hiro puts a 
hand in his pocket, and as quick as lightning, tooth picks surrounded the 
outline of their bodies.)

Hiro: You both told me tooth picks are stupid! DDDDIIIIEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!

 (Fighting starts again. Ranma jumps down and gets in the spirit of it, not 
knowing who half of them are.)

Akane: This is crazy!!!!! All of these people connected to each other!

 (The crowed loves it. The fighting, the insanity, seems to make an award 
winning performance.)

Ranma:(to Akira) You keep looking at Ukyou.

Akira: Ukyou.... What a nice name...... (Blanks out)

Tomio: Die! (Punches him)

Akira:(Comes out of it) Oh!

Ranma: Kach| Tenshin Amaguriken!!!!!! Hmm..... You like her dont you? Well 
she did say you where cute. And she is available. Kind of.

Akira: Kind of?

Ranma: LLLOOOONNNNGGG story. DONT ask.

(Suddenly Ryoga jumps out)

Ryoga: BREAKING POINT ATTACK!!!!!

Akira: Oh no! I know of that technique!

Akane: Oh no! Everybody out!

(The crowd runs out)

Ranma: Ryoga!!!!! Were in a building! It will collapse!!

 (Suddenly Ryogas finger penetrates the floor , right into a water main. As 
the water flows out, (turning Ryoga into a P-chan and shooting him into the 
air, and out the building) Ranma gets soaked. He sees Akira and Tomio and 
Hiro stare at the column of water. He needed time to figure this one out. 
How did they meet one another? Whey are they trying to kill one another? 
What is that cat, and where did that rope come from? Suddenly, he heard Akane
yell)

Akane: Ranma! Run! The building is collapsing!

Ranma-Chan: Ok!

(Just as Ranma head to the Exit with Akane, a beam gives way and falls 
towards them)

Akane: Ahh!!!!

Akira: Got it!	

  (Akira runs in grabbing the beam)

 Ranma-Chan: But wasnt he on the other side of the room????

Akane: Never mind!  Lets go!
________________________________________________________________________

  (As the crowd watch, The water heater explodes and a jet of hot water comes
out, spraying Ranma before he is in view. As they join the crowed, watching 
the building crumble, Akira, the strange cat , Hiro and Tomio exit.)

Tomio: Oh, well. Might as well save the demolition crew the job. KIE FIREBALL!!!

(As the fireball busts the building, one of the supports falls. On him.
Ranma helps get him out, gathering Hiro, Akira and Tomio together.)

Ranma: Ok, WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ONE ANOTHER?????

Akira,Tomio&Hiro: Welllll.....................
