Search for stories w/Ranma-Split or Dead Senshi

[PCHeintz72]

I'm basically looking for stories where the plot results in either a split senshi group or a event resulting in their numbers being gutted with Ranma helping them in one form or another.

This seach request comes from reading the recent stories of:
- 'A Time Apart' by Ozzallos-TeflonBooger.
- 'Missing Time' by claihm solais
- 'No Chance for Fate' by Tribun

Cause is not particularly important, but in the above three it normally was a alteration of time due to action or accident involving Setsuna.

He may be a senshi him/herself if needed, but that is neither a needed criteria nor a hinderence for me.

In advance, I have seen several such stories in the past, in addition to the above three, I've seen ones like:
- 'Blood Calls Out For Blood' by Miriani
- 'Destiny' by Smartalek-Arun
- 'Of Cats Men and Women' by Innortal
- 'Senshi Civil War' by Zaxxon
- 'smBL' by SJiriki
- 'The Best of Times' by Ozzallos-TeflonBooger
- 'Tranquility Protocols' by Mordae Durgul
- 'Uncles' by C Rose

I do not mean ones where he is strictly fighting all the senshi, thus while good, the following would not count:
- 'In Darkness In Fire' by Xzero
- 'Infinity's Shore' by James Barnhill
- 'Youma 12' by James Thomas

Note: this is being cross posted on 'Temple of Ranma's Senshi Seifuku', 'Anifics', and 'The FanFiction Forum'.

EDIT: Forgot I also read:
- 'Prices Paid' by Ar-Kaos

Here's an old one that I like very much:

Can it Get Any Worse by darkphoneix

It's complete but the sequel The World at War isn't finished and he stopped writing it in 2001.

Includes many types of crossovers and an interesting look at demons.

Hope this helped.

The Return has the Senshi split. If Mercury counts. Part of the time she had Venus too.

"Ranma's Day of Destiny" by Patrick Ho
has the senshi being killed and a replacement team taken.

"The Sands of Time" Richard Foo
http://hotaru.anifics.com/SM/Sands/
Where Ranma replaces at least Setsuna.

Fire's "Vengeance and a Half"

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/28355/1/Ven ... And_A_Half

Mackinnon's "On a Clear Day"

http://www.shadowchronicles.net/

Both feature the outers and inners on not-so-friendly terms, with Ranma and Saturn teaming up in Vengeance and Ranma and the Inners in On a Clear Day.

That's a dead link. When Sol took over running anifics, he eventually revived the hosted sites using a different URL. So the link to that story is now:

http://www.anifics.com/hosted/hotaru/SM ... index.html

It's a "Ranma gets locked as a girl" fic, in which he doesn't mind in the slightest. I, for one, will not be reading it.

I noticed that myself. The one further thing though, is that to get to the individual chapters, one must change the chapter links as well. That is because regrettably, a lot of anifics sites had hardwired links, not relative or dynamic ones that changed automatically when the site would change.



As for the recommendations... Thanks.

I've read 'Can it Get Any Worse' by darkphoneix but can't remember a conflict with the outers and inners, mainly a grudge against Pluto by Ranma.

I've of course read 'The Return', though I forgot to list it when posting, it was late at night.

I've already aquired 'Ranma's Day of Destiny' and 'The Sands of Time', but have not had the chance to read them yet, should get to them sometime today. I vaguely recall 'The Sands of Time' having come up in a seach by someone before, but can't remember for what.

A long time back, I read 'Vengeance and a Half' but did not care for it.

On the other hand, I've been a fan of 'On a Clear Day' since early 2002, and recently (2 weeks ago) reread the whole thing. Good stuff, one of the best extreme AU Ranma and Sailor Moon crossovers I've ever seen.

Senshi split huh. My story Curses aren't the Only Change http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4304874/1/Curses_Arent_the_Only_Change
is (or maybe I should say will be) one.

'Chaotic Rebirth' by Trugeta (Chibi-Usa helps Ranma against the other senshi)

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2744967/1/Chaotic_Rebirth

'Finishing what you start' by Gabriel Blessing (Ranma befriends the Outers and gets attacked by the Inners)

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3588623/1/F ... _you_start

The Black Moon Contract' by Quontir

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2779421/1/T ... n_Contract

[PCHeintz72]

Hmmm...

Both 'Chaotic Rebirth' by Trugeta (wish he would continue) and 'Finishing what you start' by Gabriel Blessing I've read. Though the 2nd IMO does not really apply to the search request. It was not really any schism or disagreement between inners and outers, nor are their deaths among their numbers... they merely did not interact with each other much.

'The Black Moon Contract' by Quontir... I think this is the 3rd time that came across my radar as something to be read. Problem is, I've tried to read it once before, and could not really get into it. Maybe I'll have better luck this time. Uncertin when I'll get to it though.

Tried reading 'Ranma's Day of Destiny'. Only got 2/3rd's into it before having to stop... the setup was interesting, but the character interaction and speech is not so good.

Currently reading 'The Sands of Time', in to chapter 2. Nicely done, but a couple plot points I feel are needlessly rushed. I'll be finishing that in a bit. A shame it is likely dead though. One concern is, while a bit early to tell, Setsuna's past personality may be subsuming Ranma. If so, I call it character death, and that is not really Ranma anymore.

EDIT: Forgot to comment on 'Curses aren't the Only Change'. I've read the original, but not the rewrite. My main issue with the original was that it seemed to have a fairly clear goal, then went off on tangents in the later chapters, seemed to muck up the original intended plot, or at least what I perceived it to be. I'll have to see if the rewrite will be different.

Thansk for the responses.

I hope I can avoid doing that this time. If I start to do that again then, please tell me. It's sometimes hard to tell when you are making a mistake like that.

Don't Rob Kelk's 'A Certain Distance' and 'A Closer Distance' have Split Senshi?
