Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters here that belong to Ranma 1/2. The Ranma 1/2 cast belongs to Rumiko Takahashi. Nor do I own Suikoden 3 or any other characters that I put into this story except for my own OCs. Neither do I own any of the character in any of the crossovers I do. I'm just using them in this fanfiction and I have no money so don't bother suing me. You'll just lose money instead of gaining any. And remember to leave a review!

This idea has been running in my head for such a long time that I have decided instead of just waiting for the other story arch of Suikoden One Half with the merged worlds of Marvel and DC that I'm going to do this as a side story to my main story that will merge with it after the current story arch is done with.

Chapter 1 – Where am I now?

A portal suddenly appeared over a landscape that would be like of Japan before it became modern. Two figures came through the portal that quickly disappeared after they fell through. One was a man who looked and moved like a warrior, the other had his limbs bond together and looked like a clown.

"Mad" Ranma said to Tina's older brother. "I thought that once I defeated you I would get to go home."

"Yes you defeated me in fair combat," MadHat said. "But the test isn't over just yet."

"What do you want me to do now?" Ranma ask.

"I just need you to stay at a village close to here for about two months and let what you do best happen," MadHat smiled.

"Two more months away from my family," Ranma said glaring at MadHat.

"Fine," MadHat said cracking a grin. "I'll give you some company."

"What?" Ranma ask as another gateway suddenly opens in front of him spilling out a group of people who he hasn't seen in so long. He was quickly tackled to the ground by some of the said group.

Elsewhere –

"I can't wait to get back to the village," Naruto said as he walked ahead of his team. They had just completed their first A rank mission after they found out the reason why the old man Tazune had hired them, they were only a few hours away from the village.

"I can't wait to see Ino," Sakura said as she wanted to see the look on her rivals face when she tells her what had happen to her and her team.

"At least that fog bank finally lifted," Sasuke said as they had been walking in the fog that had rolled in the early morning since they woke up.

"Yeah it was dampening my book," Kakashi said. Hearing footsteps ahead Kakashi eyes narrowed as he looked ahead. Even with the fog gone there was still a light mist in the air the made it hard to see things far away.

"What is it?" Sakura ask their teacher once she noticed he was looking ahead.

"There are three people coming towards us," he answers as he stops.

They waited as the three figures got closer to them, they saw it were two young girls one around the Leaf rookies age and the other younger, and a short man. From the way the man was dress they could clearly see he's a nin but he didn't have any headband on him. He's dress in a black outfit with a redhood, and his face reminded them a face of that of a rodents.

The girl around rookies age was dressed in a light blue uniform that looks like it belongs in some army unit and goggles on her head. She has short silver hair and blue eyes and is about the same height as Sakura. She held a large lance that is longer than she is resting it on her shoulder and has a long thin sword resting on her side.

The youngest was a blonde, blue-eyed girl who was staying close to the older girl. She is wearing a pink ribbon in her blonde hair and wearing a blue dress with a white apron over it. She is also holding a teddy bear in her arms. She also had an air of vulnerability and innocence to her.

"Hi there!" Naruto greeted them.

"Hello," the small girl said as she hides behind the older girl.

"Can you help us we gotten lost in the fog?" the older girl asks.

"Which way is it to the Leaf Village?" the red hooded nin ask.

"You're going in the wrong way it's where we're heading," Sakura answers.

"Thanks," he said.

"Tell me what village are you from?" Kakashi ask the nin.

"Oh I'm not with any village, I'm in the service of their family," the red hooded nin said. "I am Sasuke Sarugakure house ninja of the Jones family at your service."

"House ninja?" Kakashi ask.

"Hey he has the same name as you," Naruto said pointing to Sasuke U. (1)

"Quite dope," Sasuke U said.

"What's a house ninja?" Sakura ask looking at her teacher.

"House ninjas are nins who instead of being with a village are working for a clan or house instead. But with the first Hidden Village establish most of them left to join one of the villages. I didn't even know there were any house nins left," Kakashi said as he remembers hearing stories about house nins in the services of Lords in different countries and lands but he had thought only they had any house nins left.

"What are your names?" Naruto ask the two girls.

"My name is Reni and the one behind me is Iris," the silver hair girl said.

"You're traveling alone?" Sakura ask.

"No we just gotten lost from our group," Sasuke said.

"You can tag along with us," Naruto said as he turns to Kakashi but froze as he sees that he's staring at something in the trees.

Standing in the tree branches the Leaf nins saw two nins a man and a woman. The female is dress in black tights and a purple kimono. Her long black hair is tied in a low ponytail and a red headband kept her hair off of her face. On her right arm is a three bladed clawed armguard. The male ninja wore black tights and a blue shirt. He has black spiky hair with some white on it and has a sword is strapped to his back. Both of them wore a veil to hide their lower faces like Kakashi.

"Watari, Ayame you found us," Iris shouted out.

"Your parents are worried sick," the woman Ayame said as she jumps down from the tree.

"Your father told you two to stay close," Watari said to the two girls and then turns to Sasuke. "And they ask you to keep them from getting lost."

"Sorry about that," Sasuke said rubbing the back of his head.

"They're waiting for us," Ayame said as she picks up Iris and place her on her back.

"Try to keep up," Watari said as he gives Reni a ride on his back. Then both he and Ayame leaped into the air and started jumping from one tree to another.

"Wait for me!" Sasuke shouted as he leaps into the trees and follows the two ninjas.

"What did you kids see?" Kakashi ask as he felt something off with the group they had just met.

"What do you mean?" Naruto ask.

"There was something different about them," Sasuke U said.

"I felt something from them," Sakura said.

"I felt a lot of chakra coming off of them," Kakashi said. "Those two nins are at the same level as Zabuza was."

"Those two are just as strong as he was?" Naruto ask.

"And that girl Reni, she was carrying that lance around with no trouble at all," Kakashi said.

"Yeah that lance was just a big as she is," Sakura said.

"She must be really strong," Naruto said.

"Well if they're heading for the Leaf we should meet up with them later," Sasuke U said.

At the Leaf Village a few hours later –

After a giving their report to the Hokage about their mission to Waves team seven went their separate ways as Kakashi stayed behind to talk to the Hokage about something. As Naruto took off for Ichiraku stand when he spotted a familiar looking teddy bear in the mouth of a dog running down the street towards him. And right behind the dog was that girl Iris running after it as fast as she could run through the crowded streets.

"Give me back Jean-Paul!" Iris shouted running as fast as her legs could carry her.

"I got it," Naruto said as he kicks the dogs head making it give out a yelp as it lets go of the bear and ran off.

"Thank you," Iris said as Naruto hands her bear over to her.

"You're welcome," Naruto said but then notice her looking around for something. "Lost something else?"

"I don't know how to get back to the inn my family is staying at," Iris said.

"Don't worry I get you back, my name is Naruto Uzamaki," he introduces himself.

"My name is Iris Jones," she greeted her new friend. "My family are in the Garden Inn."

"I know where that is," Naruto said as he had pasted by that inn plenty of times. But was kind of surprise to hear that her family was staying at the high price inn as only people of wealth and nobles get to stay at the hotel.

"Thank you," Iris said again as she took his hand and he leads her back to the inn.

As they walk down the streets Naruto ran into Hinata and her team, after they had finished a D rank mission. Their teacher Kurenai was going to treat them a meal when Hinata suddenly froze and started hiding being her. Looking around she spotted the reason as that boy Naruto was waling towards them leading a small girl right behind him. Blinking she noticed that the small girl and Naruto looked like a brother and sister pair.

"Hi guys!" Naruto shouted once he saw who the people in front of him were.

"Hello Naruto," Hinata said from behind Kurenai.

"Who's the girl?" Kiba ask as his dog Akamaru jump off of his head to the ground and ran up to the girl.

"Hello puppy," Iris said as she cuddles Akamaru.

"Her name is Iris she gotten lost so I'm taking her to Garden Inn," Naruto said.

"Garden Inn?" Shino ask.

"Yes my family is staying there to see the exams," Iris said.

"The exams?" Naruto ask.

"That's where we get to prove that we should advance to the next ninja rank," Kiba said.

"It's about a month away," Kurenai said.

"Yeah papa said that since we're here we should look around and take in the sights of the Element countries," Iris said as she's getting licked by Akamaru.

"You're not around here?" Hinata ask.

"No we're not," a blond woman said as she and two kunoichis walk towards them.

"Mama!" Iris said as she puts down Akamaru and runs over to the woman.

The woman had the same color hair and eyes as Iris does, with an air of grace around her. She's dress in a blue dress that showed off her figure and had on a blue head bandana to keep her long hair back. While she didn't look like it, Kurenai could tell by looking at the way she moved that she's a skilled fighter. Looking at the way she's dress she could see sights of folds in her clothes to hid weapons as she herself has clothes like that with many folds to conceal hidden weapons. That only another woman would have known what to look for.

As for the two other women who are clearly kunoichis, Kurenai had to fight down the sudden surge of envy she's feeling as she looks at the two. Both of them are dressed up in the skimpy outfits and are gorgeous and young, very good combinations. The first one has reddish brown hair that, while a bit messy, is very silky and long. She's wearing white stockings and a blue and white half-cut outfit around her shapely body. The bottom part is cut at the slits all the way to her hips so it reveals her shapely and long legs. Actually, it is more like flaps are at the front and back and that is it. A short sword hung from her back and she is wearing blue boots that are actually ankle guards and blue arm guards. She has a white collar around her neck and a yellow ribbon in her hair. The other one is wearing a tight, legless green leotard and wearing knee high black boots. Around her slim waist is a purple sash that acted as a belt. Her green hair is tied into a low ponytail and has an air of nobility around her, but one of kindness and tranquility as well. The stares the two were getting from the men in the village were causing many of the men's girlfriends and wives to start reaching for something to hit with.

"My name is Lachette Jones and these two are Kasumi and Kodachi," Iris mother introduced herself.

"What village are you two from?" Kurenai ask as she didn't know of any kunoichis who dress like the way those two are.

"We're not from any village," Kasumi answers.

"We're in the services of the Jones family we're house ninjas," Kodachi answered.

"House nins?" Kiba ask before looking at his teacher for an answer.

"Before the Hidden Villages were formed there use to be nins who only serve a family house or clan," Hinata said as she learned that in her studies.

"We're from the Western lands," Lachette said.

"Oh I see," Kurenai said as lands from the West don't have hidden villages that are like the ones here. "What brings you here?"

"My husband is here to see an old friend of his and since we're already here we should stay and watch the exams before going back," Lachette explains.

"I hope that you and your party will enjoy your stay here," Kurenai said.

"We will," Lachette said as she turns to Naruto. "Thank you for looking after my daughter."

"That's no problem," Naruto said.

"I hope that we can count on you to show Iris and her sister Reni around here," Kasumi said as she leans down to him.

"His name is Naruto Uzamaki," said Iris as she was being held up by her mother.

"We'll be seeing you around," Kodachi said as she gives him a kiss on his cheek.

"Okay," Naruto said as no woman had ever been this nice to him before.

"Bye Naruto," Iris said as she waves good-bye as she was carried off by her mother.

"Naruto," Hinata said softly as she had wanted to be the first one to give him a kiss.

"You got all the luck," Kiba growled as Naruto gotten a kiss from that stunning older woman.

"Something was off about her," Shino said. "She's wearing perfumes that are masking something else."

"Masking what?" Kiba ask. "All I smell is roses."

"My bugs smell something they don't like about her," Shino said. "They get like this when they're near poison users."

"A poison user," Kurenai said as she has met a few poison users before. And that other woman Kasumi she felt a lot of power coming from her.

"Wow," Naruto said. "I got to meet the rest of Iris family."

Meanwhile –

In the inn's room, Ranma sat on the bed of the room as his daughter Reni sat close to him. According to Madhat he needs to stay here till the nina exams were over. He doesn't understand the reason why he needs to stay here. The three ninjas Watari, Ayame and Sasuke were out and about exploring the village as for Watari and Ayame hadn't been to a ninja village for a long time and this was the first one Sasuke has been to.

"We just have to stay here till the exams are over?" Ranma's older half sister Natsume ask as she and his other sisters ate in his room.

"At least the food here is good," Kurumi said as she woofs down the food in front of her.

"We all missed you," Yun said to her big brother.

"I'm so happy you're here," Reni said as she hugs her father.

"Me too," Ranma said as he hugs her back.

The door of the room opens as Tina and Shizu came walking in. "We made all of the arrangements to stay here," Tina said as she sits down next to Ranma.

"I still don't understand why your brother brought us here," Shizu said.

"At least we're here with Ranma," Tina said as she clung to her husband to be. "Besides he wouldn't leave us here."

"You got one weird brother," Ranma said to her.

"I know," Tina said. "But there's a reason why he wants us to be here."

"And knowing Ranma it will find its way to him," Natsume said.

"As it will as it always has done before," Kurumi said.

"I know it's the story of my life," Ranma said wondering what Madhat had planned for this time around.

"And I wouldn't have it any other way," Fight Hat said to him.

Should I make this apart of my 'Suikoden One Half' story line or make it a different story all together? I'll leave it up to you readers. And I know it's weird to be writing a part of the story while the other story arch isn't done yet but I couldn't help myself.
