I think this should fix the formatting problems.  Don't forget to C&C, either really good or really bad.  I'm not a natural like someone I could mention <hint, hint, nudge, nudge, wink, wink>.

Ranma 1/2 / Dragonball Z:
The Sayajin
by 'Neil Carlberg

	Well, we know that I appologize to all the big, rich people like 
Rumiko Takahashi and Akira Toriyama, who actually own these characters.  
There's no point in suing me, as I havn't got any money anyway.  At least, 
not until I stretch out the apostrophe in 'Neil (as in 'Zakath).  Now after 
that somewhat obscure reference, I will now get on with the show.

-----------
Chapter 1
----------

	Ryouga Hibiki was lost again.  He should know the feeling well by 
now, with all the years that he had been wandering for, far from anyone who 
cared for him.  Of course, there was only one person on the planet who gave 
a damn about him anyway.  And Akane was claimed by that bastard Ranma.  
Ranma, who had engineered his curse.  Ranma, who stole his love.  Ranma, who 
delighted in Ryouga's every misery, and who beat him regularily.  If Ryouga 
chose to give his troubles a name, it would be Ranma.  And despite all his 
skill and power, to shatter a rock wall with one hand, to defeat anyone who 
crossed his path, to take hundreds of blows without flinching, the two things 
he couldn't do were defeat Ranma and win Akane.  All his considerable might 
was empty.

	As he wandered past a large pyramid in the desert he was currently 
wandering through, he noticed that he was begining to glow with a slight 
green aura.  Here was another problem.  His inability to control his emotions,
 as he unconciously turned the depression into ki.  As powerful as the 
Shishihoukoudan was, at times it was a pain.  His dark thoughts from before 
began to flood into his mind, and the aura began to grow.  It filled him 
totally, until he had to lash out, or explode with his own ki.

	"SHISHIHOUKOUDAN!"  yelled Ryouga as he unleashed a burning green 
ray into the  side of a pyramid, smahing the it in.  This done, he proceded 
to wander of to the east, with his cloak whipping in the wind.  He never 
noticed the unholy glow that the the pyramid had.

	Dende was Kami-sama over his Earth, and he liked his job.  The young 
god sensed all that could endanger his planet, and then sent off his little 
army of martial artists to deal with it.  Of course, since the destruction 
of Cell, there hadn't been too much trouble.  So Dende was amazed when he 
felt a ripple in the fabric of the universe, on that screamed with doom for 
a million worlds.  The backlash from the wave threw him accross the room where 
he was meditating, and shocked him to the core.  He felt the potential to 
destroy everything that was in this evil, and decided that that was a bad 
thing.

	"Piccolo-san!" he shouted.  "Get the others now.  There's big trouble!"

	Piccolo, who poked his head into Dende's meditation chamber said 
"Not again!  Is it like that stupid Cell, who were 'threatening the entire 
universe'?"

	"This makes Cell seem like a pussycat, and Buu for that matter too." 
said Dende, in a frightened voice.

	The dark figure flew through the air at speeds that easily outran 
any jet craft that might be in the air at the time.  Kaeru's master had 
wanted him to report immediately, and Lord Kaine was not the sort that you 
disobeyed, for any reason.  His black hair flew back into his face, and his 
purple outfit was plastered to his body by the force of the wind he created.  
It felt so good to be able to fly again after five eons of imprisonment.  
His master was even more pleased, and this news would make him even happier.

	Kaeru pulled to a stop in front of the ruins of a large pyramid.  In 
front of it stood eleven other warriors, each dressed in a different hue.  A 
small, grey-haired  man in grey came out to meet him.

	"Hail Kaeru," the man called.  "Is this world ready for our master's 
hand?"

	Indeed it is, Donovan."  Kaeru responded.  "And I have located the 
one who will be Lord Kaine's avatar."  Then he yelled to the whole 
group: "Come brothers, let us serve out lord!"  And with that, he flew into 
the sky, a rainbow of warriors following him, who were in turn followed by a 
hundred brown clothed men.

***

	Kirin hovered through the air with ease, in his flying ship.  The 
master of Seven Lucky Gods martial arts stood, confidant in his supremacy, 
ruling the skies.  Ever since his marriage to Lychee, he had been out 
cruising the world with her much more often.  Right now, they drifted home, 
to Nekonlon.

	Then, a group of rainbow-clad men came roaring at the ship, flying 
like birds.  Their deadly first strike dropped Bishamonten and the twins to 
the deck, broken and bleeding.  He looked as his adjuntant, Ebitan, was 
fighting a monster of a man clad in red, who seemed to be easily overpowering 
the smaller man.  As he looked on, the martial arts fisherman was struck by 
a flury of fist that resembled an Amaguriken attack, and blasted through a 
bulkhead.

	The huge Fatman was swinging wildly at a man in grey, while Monmon 
was being easily cut apart by a green-wearing man.  Lychee was already lying 
on the deck, with a blond woman in navy blue standing over her.

	"LYCHEE!"  shouted Kirin as he rushed to her, throwing an attack at 
the blond that she easily blocked, then kicked him in the gut, doubling him 
over.  She rose her fist to finish him when a voice rang out "Halt Akemi!"

	A figure in a royal purple gi landed on the deck, and said "This one 
seems stronger then the rest.  Perhaps he will be a good warmup for my old 
rival."

	"Come now Kaeru" said the green cloaked man "theres no need to play 
with them.  Theyre to weak."

	"Kazuyas right" added Donovan "Lets just get to this place where 
the ki is concentrated."

	Kirin wasnt about to take the insult of being a punching bag.  
"Kirin will destroy you all for what you did!  Noone attacks Kirins wife 
and servants!"  With that, Kirin powered up his most deadly attack, putting 
all his considerable strength into it.  "HYUKYOSHOYOUGEKIKYOU!!" he cried as 
he released the Attack of the Hundred Pinching Chopsticks.

	Kaeru looked crosswise at him, raising an eyebrow, and then rose one 
hand and said "Moukougenkibureeka", as a ball of power formed in the hand, 
blasted out through Kirins technique, and then through Kirins body.

	"Good one" said the man in red, as he looked on Kirins remains with 
disdain.

	"Yes, yes.  Lets just get out of here." said Donovan.  "Shin, do 
your worst." And with that, he proceded to rise into the air, followed by 
Kaeru, Kazuya, and Akemi.  Shin, in red, paused, turned around and let his 
ki flow into his hand, then roared "Hiikioihappa!" and produced a massive 
red beam that proceded to disintegrate the great ship, and then he roared 
off to the east after his comrades.

***

	In a small doctors office, in Japan, a man rose jumped from his 
bed, drenched with sweat.

	"No!" said Tofuu.

***

	In a cave in China, the mightiest human on the planet rose from 
slumber.  Saffuron felt his old opponent , and his ancient ally with a 
fortitude he hadnt felt in aeons.

	"Hes awake."  Saffuron said.  No doubt that Kaerud go for Tofuu.  
That Ranma punk would try to get in the way, and probably get himself killed.  
Still, if Kaine manged to find the one he needed, then it wouldnt matter.

	"Im coming Tofuu" growled Saffuron.  "And for you to, old friend."  
Then he exploded into the air, surprising the hell out of a TWA flight to 
Beijing, as he passed it at Mach 3.

***

	"Well," said Gohan.  "Im here.  So whats important enough to call 
the best fighters on earth here at eight in the morning?"

	"This had better not be something stupid." added Vejiita.  "Bulma is 
gonna raise hell if Trunks is late for school, and I dont wanna have to put 
up with it."

	"Its very important, Vejiita.  The survival of the universe rests 
upon it." said Dende.

	"Well what is it then? Whats worth calling the Saiyajin no Oji all 
the way here."  Vejiita shot back.

	"Something very old and very powerful has woken up on another earth."  said Dende.  
"Its name is Kaine, and it is neither a kind nor gentle god.  Namek legend 
speaks of a great war between Kaine and all peoples, in which the planet 
Saiya was destroyed.  At the end of this, Kaine and his generals were locked 
in a great pyramid by ten thousand ki Grandmasters.  Even then they could 
only harness the power necessary by limiting the power,  by granting a 
release clause.  The only way for him to escape is if his spirit possesses a 
Saiyajin body."

	"Saiyajin!" chorused the group  "But that means theyd have to 
come..." began Yamucha.

	"Here" finished Piccolo "The only place where you could find one, 
after Paragas and Burolis deaths."

	"Yes, but a war between Kaines generals and the Z Warriors would 
destroy this planet" said Dende.  "Fortunately, the planet Kaine is trapped 
on is sturdier than ours.  It will allow us to make a preemptive strike."

	Goku looked enthusiastic, Vejiita looked irritated, Trunks and Goten 
looked bored, and the other Z fighters looked grim.  "So were fighting 
another Buu?" siad Gohan.

***

	Ranma ran away from the raging beast that pursued him.  Normally, he 
wasnt afraid of anything, but this was one exception.  He thought to himself 
I should never have made that  fat joke.

	"RANMA!" screamed Akane, hammer out and thirsting for his skull.  
"So Im fat, am I!  You will die!"

	The common scene took place in Nerima every morning, as the couple 
walked to school.  The same as every morning, Nabiki wondered if their 
insurance premiums were going to jump yet again, Soun and Genma wondered if 
their children were ever going to get married, and Kasumi thought of what to 
cook for supper. 

	Just then, as often does in Nerima, all hell broke loose.  Ukyou and 
Shampoo jumped out, arms wide to grab Ranma from certain doom.  Mousse saw 
this, and, as he often did decided that he would crush Ranma for abusing 
Shampoo.  This happened to happen just as Pantyhose Tarou was attempting to 
jump on Ranmas head, and as Ryouga burst through the ground, and saw Ranma.  Of course, Cologne watched nearby with Genma and Soun, enjoying Kasumis dim sung.  Nabiki was on the phone, being on retainer to both Kunou and Kodachi to inform them of such events to defeat their respective enemy Ranma Saotome.  Happosai, seeing all these girls in one place, couldnt hold himself back, and flew into the pack, passing out feels to the girls every which way.

	In all this, it wasnt to much of a surprise that noone noticed 
Tofuu appear standing right next to Kasumi, with a grim expression.

	"Oh, hello Doctor Tofuu!"  greeted Kasumi "Why dont you stay for 
dinner?"

	Tofuu didnt even seem stunned by Kasumis presence, and instead 
focused on the rumble.  His eyes flared green for a half second, and he 
muttered "Kaikosen."

	A burst of energy shattered the rumble, sending martial artists and 
fiancees everywhere, merely stunned.  "Im sorry, everyone," Tofuu broke in 
"but this was the fasted method of getting your attention, and time is of 
the essence right now."

	Ranma, regaining activity, looked up questioningly "What the hell 
was that doc?  Couldnt you have..."  Then Ranmas eyes widened.  Ryouga, 
looking up saw what Ranma saw, and joined his friend, slipping intop battle 
stance.  Tofuu turned around.

	"Ah.  Id wondered when youd show up old friend."  he said to the 
blue glowing Saffuron, who was doing his best avatar of pure power 
impersonation.

	"Sorry Tofuu." said the supreme martial artist.  "Not all of us have 
the advantage of being gods." he retorted as he powered down and landed next 
to the doctor.  He gave Ranma and Ryouga a lookover.  "They dont look ready.  
Whatve you taught them?" Saffuron questioned.

	"Nothing."  answered Tofuu.

	"WHAT!!!" screamed Saffuron.  "What the hell are they going to do 
against Kaeru and the others like this!  Not to mention that Kaine will want 
the one who can fulfill the binding.  And we both know who that is!  Hes not 
ready!  I could take all of them myself!"

	"Oh yeah!" but in Ranma in a foolish manner "You didnt do so good 
last time we fought!  As a matter of fact, I whipped your ass!"

	Saffuron looked at Ranma with a look of total disdain.  He gave Tofuu 
a questioning look, and then exploded into action.  Teleporting right infront 
of Ranma, he unloaded with two punches and a crescent kick at low amaguriken 
speed.  Then, as Ranma crumpled, he said "I chose to allow you to live.  You 
are an insignificant mortal, whose power is just a lighter flame next to my 
blast furnace.  Dont ever assume your superiority to me again."

	Ranma looked up at Saffuron, and was about to leap up at the 
pink-haired martial artist, when Colognes voice cut in.  "What exactly is 
going on here?"
