     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!" <CRASH>  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 Amy Mizuno?"  
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 wanted to know if we could train her.  It would be a perfect 
chance for you and Ranma to practice for when you run the Dojo 
together."  He said with a grin.  Akane just glared at her father, and 
turned her attention toward her breakfast.  It would be good to see her 
cousin Ami again.  Their mothers were sisters, and they hadn't seen much 
of each other since junior high.  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, but Ami 
had only been interested in studying to be a doctor just like her 
mother.  <I wonder what changed her mind?>  Akane thought.
     At the apartment of Lita Kino, a phone rang.  It's incessent noise 
halted finally when finally, Lita reached out lifted it to her ear.
     "Hello, this is Lita Kino, how can I help you?"  She said with a 
tone of, 'this better be important.'
     "Lita, 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, Amy.  I'll tell the others."  Lita 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.  Hope to hear from you soon.
