A quirky Ranma crossover


Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters,
            I merely toy with them for a time.


Prologue:

Let me tell you a story...


Once upon a time, there lived a good and kind hearted prince

who ruled over a kingdom. This prince was beloved of all his 

subjects because he always listened to their pleas and strove 

to keep them safe and warm. The people of the kingdom knew this

and were glad, because this was proof of his love towards them.

The prince and his populace lived peacefully and happily for a 

time. However, as oft times happens, this period of serenity was

ended because of the bitterness of one man...Arucard. Arucard

was the ruler of a neighboring kingdom, a hard and merciless man.

He was jealous of the love directed towards the prince and vowed to

get rid of him. And, after many months searching for the perfect

punishment for the gentle prince, he finally discovered what he

sought. With the help of his royal wizards, and strenghtened by

his own envy and hate, Arucard destroyed the prince's kingdom and

all the possesions he owned. However, he was not satisfied with

the destruction of the kingdom, and so he ordered the prince to 

be brought before him. 


	Upon seeing the prince, Arucard implemented the last part 

of his evil plan. Placing his hand across the innocent prince's 

breast, he drew out all the emotion from his heart, then he cast 

them about far and wide, where the prince would not be able to find. 

Erasing the prince's memory, Arucard sent him away from his kingdom, 

commanding the emotionless boy never to return. 


	Immediately after the prince had left and Arucard began to 

congratulate himself, there appeared a great flash of ivory light, 

from stepped an old man. The old man looked somberly at Arucard and 

frowned before speaking,

	
	"Do not gloat young man, you have not won just yet. Because

you cast this spell in anger and in jealousy, there exists a way for

the prince's heart to be returned to him."


Upon hearing these words, Arucard was doubly alarmed, and he demanded

to know how such a thing could be possible..let alone done since the

prince was denied the ability to find the pieces of his heart.


	"There will come a time, after the events of today have become 

nothing more than legend, a myth, a...story even. When no one gives any

real thought to theprince or his fate, a princess..a princess Tutu will

arrive, and she will restore the prince's heart and all else that belongs

to him."


Upon completing the prvious sentence , the old man vanishes, leaving a 

stunned looking Arucard trying o absorb what he has just heard, and how

to use it for his own good.



Elsewhere:


We see a dark chamber, gears that would have been more in tune with an

old clock tower turn incessantly in seemingly random directions. In the

center of the room lies a rather large cog, about the size of a wagon's

wheel. It is here that was see the old man once again. He is staring at

the cog, which somehow has become rather transparent, and through it

we can the land outside the kingdom, and a lone boy walking along a

grassy path. The old man watches for another minute before glancing

away and sighing.


	"I am very sorry young prince, but this is the best I can do.

You must now roam the world unfettered until your princess Tutu can

return your heart. I pray that you can one day forgive me."


With these words, the old man turns away from the cog, leaving the

prince to walk alone, waiting for the one fated to restore him and

the sanctuary that once was his kingdom.
