A multi-crossover fanfic. "Anime Jam" By Julian Soullard (e-mail: jnsoullard@hotmail.com) All of these series have there own respective author and company. I'm not implying that I created or own such series, I don't even want to think what would happen to me if took credit for creating them. Anyway, there are so many companies and authors that I won't even bother in telling you which one is which. The only thing that needs to be perfectly and absolutely clear is that I'm not making ANY financial profit out of this and don't plan to make any in the future, so please don't sue me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AND NOW, ON WITH... Chapter 1: Special invitation. Tendou Dojo 8:49 AM " Morning everyone..." Ranma said as he came down the stairs while rubbing his eyes. At the dining room, all the Tendou sisters were there taking their breakfast along with Soun and Genma. P-chan was also there, resting in Akane's lap. That just prove Ranma that there wasn't such a thing as a good way to start the day, especially not in Nerima. "Well Hi there Mr. P." he stated while glaring at the pig "Guess you've been sleeping tight tonight, haven't you?" "Ranma, stop picking on P-chan!" Akane demanded "He finally made it home and I don't want you to start bullying him, got it?" "Yeah, whatever." he said as he grabbed his bowl of rice and started eating. Someone knocked at the door moments later. Kasumi stood up and went to see who it was, then she steeped inside the dinning room again while holding two letters. "Ranma, you got a letter." she said as she gave it to him. Ranma took the letter and looked at the return address which was the same the other letter had; the second one being for Kasumi. "UBT, Ultimate Basket ball Tournament association" Ranma read the return address out loud "What the hell is that?" "Well open it up and find out." Akane told him. Masaki residence 8:51 AM "Wonder what's this UBT thing is?" Tenchi asked himself as he began to open the letter "Must be some sort of advertisement." "Tenchi, what is basketball?" Aeka asked "I don't recall hearing the name before." "Figures. A spoiled little princess as yourself wouldn't know." Ryoko brought out. "You take that back, Ryoko!" Aeka demanded "I don't suppose you know what it's about!" "Well for your information, little princess, I just happen to know everything about basketball." she stated "It's actually easy. You have two teams with nine players on each side dressed in heavy armors, the game consists in grabbing an oval shaped ball and run to the other side of the court trough your opponents." "I think you've got your sports mixed up a little bit, Ryoko." Washu pointed out. "So, what's in the letter Tenchi?" Sasami asked. It was then that everybody noticed that Tenchi wasn't paying attention to what they've been discussing. His eyes had widen considerably and his sight seemed to be lost in what was written in the letter. Sasami waved her hand in front of his eyes hoping to get some sort of response. "Helloooo, Tenchi? Is everything all right?" she asked. "I can't believe this..." Tenchi said as he lay down the letter. Hikawa temple 9:15 AM Rei, Ami, Makoto, Minako and Artemis stood there, waiting for their fearless (well, more or less) leader. As expected, Rei was complaining about how late Usagi was. "What's wrong with this girl?" she asked "Calling us all here this early on Saturday and not even being here on time!" "I would've liked staying at home and study a little more too." Ami brought out, you could only see sweat drops in the back of everybody else's head. "She sounded agitated though." Makoto pointed out "I wonder what's wrong?" "Look, there she comes." Minako told them. Right at the temple's stairway, Usagi was seen running towards her friends while caring Luna in one arm, she seemed to hold some sort of letter on the other hand. She finally got to them and stopped to take a breath. "Girls... ... You'll never believe what...... I got this morning on my mail box..." she said. Maison Ikoku 9:30 AM "Yusaku? Is there something wrong?" Kyoko asked him. The moment Yusaku began to read the letter the post man brought, he's seem to be lost in some sort of trance. No need to say that by looking so suspicious all of the other residents in Maison Ikoku began to curiously gather around him. "So what's with the boy?" Miss Ichinose asked. "I don't know." Kyoko responded "Ever since he started reading the letter he's been like that. Yusaku? What is it?" UBT Central command 9:32 AM "I have to admit, the boss is right." Shinobu brought out "I don't think none of them will back down with this kind of first prize." "I agree with you Shinobu." Narsus went on "Although I can't imagine how our employer can manage to grant a..." Tendou Dojo 9:32 AM "A WISH??? No way!!!" Ranma stated. Masaki residence 9:32 AM "Are you serious Tenchi?" Ryoko asked. Hikawa temple 9:32 AM "This has to be some sort of joke." Rei commented. Maison Ikoku 9:32 AM "Wow..." Kyoko said, it was the only thing that came to her mind. Tokyo tower 10: 05 AM "What I don't get is how the person who sent us this letter knows we've been to Cephiro." Fuu pointed out to her two other friends. "Either way, a wish as first prize isn't something to sneeze at." Hikaru said "So what do you say, are we in?" "Okay by me." Umi declared "We'll have to tell the others though." "Okay then, let's concentrate and go to Cephiro." Hikaru stated. "I wonder how Ferio-san is doing?" Moroboshi residence 10:20 AM "Daaaarling!!!" Lum declared as she went inside Ataru's room "Let's go and have some ice cream, okay?" "Er... sure thing Lum." Ataru said as he hid something behind his back "I'll be there in a minute, I still have to run some errands, but why don't you go ahead and I'll meet you there later." "Sure." she responded as she left "Don't be late." "I won't." After making sure Lum had left, Ataru closed his door again and began to take a look at the letter he hid earlier. All this basketball thing sure seemed pretty good, but where ever he'd go it was almost impossible to go without Lum following him. If only he could build a team without Lum knowing. This wasn't going to be easy. Experts of justice's central command 10:30 AM "You wanted to talk to us chief?" Gin-Rei asked, along with her were Daisaku, Murasami and Irrei Douji. Sitting on the chair in front of them was a man wearing a gray suit and dark sun glasses. After lighting his cigarette he spoke. "Yes I did." he said "I assume you know about the letter we received this morning." "The basketball tournament?" asked Murasami "Sir, don't tell that you've decided to..." "I have." chief Chucho interrupted. "Sir, allow me to say that it would be wise." Irrei Douji declared "We know nothing about this UBT organization, it is possible that all of it is a trap from Big Fire." "I didn't take this decision recklessly." the chief confirmed "Big Fire is after the last Shizuma drive which is safely guarded. It's very unlike them to pull such a scheme to get the drive. Besides, if it isn't The Magnificent Ten who are behind all of this, we might as well make sure they don't enter the contest." "We can't let them get the wish, right?" Daisaku asked. "Right." Chief Chucho stated "Things are bad enough as they are without them having a wish." Some medieval rural town 11:00 AM Inside an inn, a group of five people are sitting at a table. One is a short redhead wearing clothes appearing to be from a sorceress, next to her is a tall blond guy with long hair and dressed in blue. On the other side of the table, a little girl with short purple hair and beige costume is sitting along with another purple hair girl, although this one looks older than the first. She has longer hair and wears a combination of blue, black and purple clothes. The last member is wearing a beige costume, has short silver hair, his skin is blue and he seems to be partly made of stone. "Lina, haven't you eaten enough yet?" Goury asked the redhead next to him who was already eating her tenth ration of food. "Shut up!" she said between bites "We've got a long journey ahead of us, and I want to have all my strength for that contest." "So what do you want as a wish?" asked Shilfiel. "What else." Lina stated as she struck a pose "Be the envy of every woman in the world. I'll be physically perfect." "How altruistic of you." Zelgadis commented with a drop of sarcasm. "Wow." Goury said "It sure has to be some powerful magic to make your chest bigger." UBT Central comand 11:15 AM "Welcome, to all three of you." Narsus told the three guests "I'm glad to see you all agreed in coming and being a part of this event. Please follow me." The three of them followed Narssus down the hallway. One of them is a teenage girl with short black hair wearing what appears to be some sort of american indian get up. The two other guests are both guys. One looks to be around sixteen, he's wearing a black with red high school uniform and has medium length black hair. The other guy seems to be around twenty, he has long brown hair tied up in a pony tail, he's wearing a baseball cap backwards and is constantly taking notes in a little notebook while walking along with the others. "This place is huge." Pai said to no one in particular. "Well our staff is rather big." Narsus brought out "After all, this is quite a big event we're organizing. We need a lot of assistance for the job. That is why you are here." "Very educational." commented Kintaro as he made a sketch of the UBT's building in his notebook. "Yeah, whatever." said Kamui, he didn't look as joyful or even as interested as his other two companions. Actually you can't ask someone to be pretty happy after losing his girlfriend and being forced to kill his best friend, now can you? "So when are we going to see your boss?" "I'm taking you to him right now." Masaki residence 12:00 AM "Are you sure you want to call Mihoshi to be part of the team?" Ryoko asked Tenchi. "As hard as it is to admit, I agree with Ryoko." Aeka declared "Mihoshi can be so clumsy." "Well it's not as if we have a choice." Tenchi brought out "Sasami got a letter too, saying that she was being hired as a cook for the tournament. And since Washu is going to be the coach, we can only turn towards Mihoshi and Kione." "Well it really doesn't matter." Ryoko replied "We'll win for sure. I think Mihoshi could be a good handicap to make it more even against the other teams. Anyway, I'll go grab my racket and start training." Everyone looked at her. "You still don't know which sport is basketball, do you Ryoko?" Washu asked. Hikawa temple 9:35 AM "This has to be some sort of bad joke." Rei declared "A *wish*?? Get real!" "I does sounds a little strange if you ask me." Minako declared "Besides, why should anyone send you a letter to enter in a basketball tournament. I mean... don't take this the wrong way Usagi, but you basketball playing kinda...." "Sucks." Rei added. "Hey!!" Usagi complained. "Well it's the truth." Rei told her. "So we just forget about the whole thing?" Makoto asked. "Guess we should." Minako responded. "I don't think we should back down girls." Ami declared as she finished reading the invitation. "Why is that?" asked Artemis. "Look what's written at the end of the letter." Ami told them as she showed them the last paragraph. "The tournament will start the 6th of July of this year." Makoto read out loud "Transportation to the tournament will be taken care of at blah blah blah and more blah blah blah... So? What so important about that?" "Read the last line." Ami insisted. "PS:" Makoto went on "The competitors of this tournament will be very powerful opponents, it is strongly suggested that you participate in your Sailor Senshi forms..." "What the hell??" asked Rei. "They know about us!" Minako declared no less surprised than her other friends. "I think that changes everything..." Luna stated. Tendo Dojo 9:18 PM "I can't believe this... If I win that contest, I can be a whole man again!!" Ranma said enthusiastically while firmly holding the invitation. "And here we go again..." Nabiki began "Another cure, another match, and certainly, another fiasco." "But what if it's true?" Ranma asked her "I can't let the opportunity go to waste!" "That's the spirit, boy!" Genma declared "You go and win that match to get us all a cure!" "Destiny has showed a new path," Soun added "this is yet another test for you to take in order to become a true martial artist. Son, I trust you will do just fine." "Oh pleeeaase!!" Akane declared as she rolled her eyes "How many times will we have to go trough stuff like this?" "Well since I've been hired at UBT," Kasumi began "It would be good if all of us went there. That way we could also enjoy some vacations during the tournament. I think I'll be a very interesting event." "Well said, Kasumi." Soun acknowledged "Saotome-kun and I will take care of training both Ranma and Akane for the tournament as well." "What??" complained Akane "I never said anything about playing basket ball!" "Hey that's right, what's the big idea in making her play in the team?" Ranma asked. "And what is *that* suppose to mean??" Akane questioned while glaring at her fiancee. "Well Duh! You would only be in my way, Akane!" he responded. "Is that so..." she declared while grabbing the nearest chair, obviously with no good intentions in mind. "Now now, Akane." Soun began in an unusual act of spontanousness, after all, Akane's furniture smashing was starting to get a little too expensive on the family's budget "Basket ball is a five players sport, I'm sure that this will help both of you in learning how to work as a team." "Does that mean that you two will be in the team too?" Ranma asked Soun and Genma. Just after saying those words, the two adults began to sweat nervously. "Er... not quite son," Genma began "after all, if we're going to be your coaches, we can't be your teammates also. Right Tendou-kun?" "Of course!" Soun added enthusiastically. "Whatever," Ranma stated "so where are we going to find three other players?" Just as if it was his cue, Kuno showed up out of nowhere and instinctively wrapped his arms around Akane. "Fear not, Akane Tendou!" he told her "I Tatewaki Kuno shall assist you as your partner during the tournament for the sake of our love..." Kuno's eloquent speech was suddenly interrupted by Akane's punch which swiftly sent him through the roof and ending up only God knows where. UBT central comand 11:20 AM Kamui, Kintaro, Pai and Narsus stood in front of the metal disc until a flashing beam of light came out of there revealing a couple of eyes. The three guests seemed a little surprised by such unexpected entrance but regained composure promptly. "Sir," Narsus began "our referees have arrived." "I see." the voice from the speakers said "I've been told a lot of things about you. I'm glad you accepted in coming. With your help, things will run smoothly. I assume Narsus has already filled you in on the details." The three of them nodded as an answer. Kintaro then began to take notes again, Pai stood there nervously and Kamui traveled his eyes around the room. "Narsus." said the voice. "Yes, sir?" "Where is the forth one?" he asked. "The forth one?" asked Kintaro. "We need four referees for the tournament." the voice explained "Where is he, Narsus?" "We had a problem, sir." Narsus responded "Koema was unavailable for the job." "Well what are you waiting for?" he asked again "Start looking for a replacement, or do you think that someone will just drop out the sky landing on your lap to be the fourth referee?" As amazing as that sounded, a portal opened up right on top of Narsus and a young high school girl with long brown hair came out of there, crashing on top of him causing both of them to slam against the floor. A slight moan was hear from the part of both victims while regaining consciousness. The girl opened her blue eyes and started looking around the room to see where she was. She was looking very confused. "Oh no... Now where have I ended up?" she asked worried to no one in particular while trying to look around for answers. "Er... excuse me..." a voice underneath her said "Could you please move your foot away from my groin? It's very painful..." "Oh, sorry!" the girl apologized once she realized she was crushing Narsus' sensitive part with her foot. Pai seemed to be the first one to react after the unexpected appearance from the girl. She went next to her and helped her up, much to Narsus' relieve. "Here, let me help you." she told her. "Thank you." "So, what's your name?" Pai asked. "I'm Miyuki." she answered. "That's a cute name." Pai pointed out while smiling "Where are you from?" "I'm from Tokyo." she went on "I was about to go to basketball practice when a hole appeared under me. The only thing I remember after that is crashing here." "Excuse me," Narsus interrupted while still rubbing his nose "did you just say, basket ball?" "Why, yes." she replied "I'm the captain of my school team." Narsus, Pai, Kintaro and Kamui then turned to face the beam of light questionatively. None of them formulated the question, it was quite obvious what they were implying. "Very well." the voice said "Narsus, fill her in."
