The Day of Emergence A Ranma 1/2/David Eddings/Sailor Moon crossover MST This is a MSTing of a fanfic by Jeffrey Lee , who now calls himself Belphera. We certainly do not intend to offend him; everything here is said with a sense of fun. I should note also that the author posted a note claiming that the fic's, uh, unusual naming scheme (you'll see what I mean) was the responsibility of his roommate and not himself. I have no way of knowing if this is true, but he was the one that posted it in this form and that's how it was MSTed. No infringement is intended on the copyrights of the owners of Ranma 1/2, David Eddings's Belgariad, and Sailor Moon. Or on that of Best Brains, the creator of MST3K, for that matter. This is an unusual MSTing. It wasn't written by just one or two people; instead, nine different authors were involved. We all gathered in an IRC channel and fed the fic in, making comments as we saw fit. Later, the IRC scripts were edited and converted into this form.

Clad in a leather jacket and hat, a bullwhip on one hip and a gun on the other. Dr. Clayton Forrester could have almost passed for "Weird Al" Yankovic playing Indiana Jones.... "Shake a leg, Frank!" Dr. Forrester called out as he looked into the darkness ahead. Somewhere in that abyss was this week's experiment, and he was going to find it. Dr. Forrester cocked his ear as he was alerted to the sound of someone approaching from behind. Instantly he whirled around, about to unleash the vicious bite of his bullwhip. His jaw dropped as he saw his assistant, T.V's Frank, clad in a white T-shirt about four or five sizes too small and green shorts to match. He wore a pair of small round sunglasses and his hair was tied into a pigtail. "What in the name of TWIGGY are you supposed to be?!?!" Dr. Forrester exclaimed in disbelief. "Well, you dressed like Indiana Jones so I thought I'd go as Tomb Raider's Lara Croft!" Frank replied proudly. Dr. Forrester facefaulted. Frank walked over to the darkness and lit a flare. "You coming, Dr. F?" Frank inquired. "Give me a moment...." Dr. Forrester replied. "I suddenly have an overwhelming craving for Pepto Bismol...." * * * A few minutes later, the two began their search. Frank led the way with a lit flare with Dr. Forrester trying to avoid looking at Frank directly. It wasn't long before they came upon an long ominous hallway.... "What do you think, Dr. F?" Frank said. "Probably booby trapped...." Dr. Forrester replied thoughtfully. "So what should we do?" Frank asked. "Only one way to be sure...." Dr. Forrester replied as he suddenly shoved Frank hard down the corridor. Immediately poison darts and blades began firing from the walls. Frank screamed as they stuck all over his body. He barely managed to reach the other side before collapsing in a heap. Meanwhile Dr. Forrester calmly walked down the now safe passage and prepared a syringe to keep Frank going for a little longer.... * * * Finally they arrived at the entrance of a large stone chamber. At the end of it stood a pedestal where the fanfic rested, illuminated by a single beam of light from the ceiling. Dr. Forrester stepped forward, his eyes widened and hands on his hips once more as he took in the view. "There it is, Frank...." Dr. Forrester slowly and carefully made his way forward, drawing ever closer to the pedestal until he was right in front of it. He slowly rubbed his face and chin and made a mental note to shave tomorrow morning. Then he carefully flexed his arms and fingers, his hands sure and steady as a rock as he placed them on each side of the fanfic. He then took a deep breath and released it slowly. Then he whispered. "Okay, get the fanfic Frank...." Dr. Forrester backed out of range as Frank walked towards the pedestal and snatched the fanfic. A few moments later, the entire chamber began to shake. "I knew we shouldn't have used wooden framework for a stone chamber!" Dr. Forrester exclaimed as he snatched the fanfic from Frank and bolted towards the exit. When they reached the ominous hallway, a door was rapidly descending at the end. Frank and Dr. F looked at each other and ran like hell, trying to reach the door before it was too late.... "Slide Frank! Slide!" Dr. Forrester cried out as Frank leapt forward and slide across the stone floor. He was halfway through the door when it crashed against his shoulders, trapping him but leaving enough of a gap for Dr. Forrester to slip through unharmed. "Good work, Frank." Dr. Forrester said as he dusted himself off. "No problem, Steve....Uh....Could you help me out of here now?" Frank asked nervously. "Not to worry, Frank." Dr. Forrester reassured him. "Once I get back to the lab, I'll bring a chainsaw to sever your head and build a new body for you. In the meantime, rest here...." "W...Wait!" Frank cried out, to no avail as Dr. Forrester left him behind.... * * * Dr. Forrester was nearing the starting point when another loud rumbling noise was heard.... "Uh-oh...." Dr. Forrester looked up to see the giant boulder above about to roll at him and he quickly hits the dirt, allowing the boulder to roll past harmlessly. He got back to his feet and patted himself on the shoulder for being clever enough to evade the trap.... Then he bigsweated as the boulder continued on its path to crash against the bottom of the stairwell to Deep 13, blocking it off and effectively trapping him here. "Shazbot!" Dr. Forrester cursed. "How the hell am I going to get out of here?" "I've got an idea!" Frank said as he stared at the wreckage. "Frank! How did you get out of the door?" A shocked Dr. Forrester asked. "Butter in my cleavage." Frank replied as he continued to study the rock above the boulder where a small opening had appeared. "I think I can climb up there and then lower a rope for you to climb up...." "Are you nuts?! That opening must be six to seven meters high! You'll never...." Suddenly, Frank did a complete backflip onto a small ledge in the wall nearby, then immediately followed it with a forward flip high into the sky. Frank's fingers caught the edge of the opening, and grunting with the exertion, he pulled himself up. Dr. Forrester was in complete and total shock at the superhuman move. "How....How in the world did you...." Dr. Forrester stammered. "Oh that little move? I've sweated to a lot of oldies over the years. You just can't tell because I'm big-boned...." Frank replied as he lowered a rope for Dr. Forrester to climb up. "Do you think you could teach me that move, Frank?" Dr. Forrester asked. "We'll see, Steve. In the meantime, let's get the fic to Joel and the bots.... * * * Joel Robinson slapped the button on the console. "Hey, sirs!" he said to the electronic image of his captors. "Is it time for the invention exchange?" "Yes!" Dr. Forrester snapped back. "What did you think we were, telephone solicitors?" TV's Frank stepped up. "You know, Joel, you and your family could be saving up to thirty percent on long- distance calls to...." "Frank." Forrester's voice was calm, but some implied threat in it halted his assistant in mid-sentence. "Well, Sailor Joel, taste the power of my invention for this week. Any lemon writer knows that once he or she posts a story with explicit sexual content to the internet, he or she has no control over who ends up reading it. Many of the readers are bound to be the kind who, shall we say, are just not ready to be reading lemons." He swiveled a computer monitor into view. "That's why I've come up with something I like to call the Lemon Peeler. It's a module that you can plug into a web site, or attach to an E-mail message or Usenet posting." He turned to his assistant. "Oh, Frank?" "Yes, Steve?" "I don't suppose you'd be interested in reading a fanfiction story? The title is 'Ukyo and Shampoo have hot, steamy sex with Ranma.'" "Male Ranma or female?" "Both." "Wow!" Frank rushed for the computer screen as Forrester returned his attention to Joel and the 'bots. "You see, Joelly-cakes, the Lemon Peeler has a program that analyses the reader's basic personality and psychology. If it finds that his maturity is a little... lacking, it automatically replaces the lemon with something more suitable." "Hey!" Frank exclaimed. "This is a transcript of 'Barney and Friends!'" "Tough luck, Frank." Forrester's head was turned away so that Frank couldn't see him snickering. Frank turned away from the screen in disgust. "Who gave you the idea for this invention, anyway?" "Nobody in particular, Frank. Your turn, kawaii Joel- chan!" Joel nodded. "Well, you may or may not be familiar with the sickeningly popular fantasy author David Eddings. As every Eddings fan knows, his career is built around writing the same book over and over again. The Belgariad, the Mallorean, the Elenium, the Tamuli; all modern classics of fantasy literature, and all featuring reluctant heroes defeating evil gods with magical blue stones. Sadly, Eddings is getting older, and his turnout is slowing down. That's where my invention comes in." Joel held up a small lcd screen attached to a keyboard and a parallel port. "The David Eddings Fantasy Book Generator takes the familiar elements of Eddings fiction and repackages them into a shiny new whole. All you do is type in names for the different character stereotypes, and it prints out a whole book!" Joel gestured at a thick stack of paper. "I've prepared a small demonstration. Go ahead, Crow!" Crow cleared his throat. "BelT'wer lifted the ancient blue crystal to the sky. It crackled and sizzled in his grip; it would have killed any man without his pedigree. Beside him, his many friends masterfully derailed the Rathian onslaught. 'Die, you bastard!' his beautiful and wise mentor exclaimed, running the hideous Rathian chieftain through with deliberate ease." "That's quite enough of that," Dr. Forrester said, shuddering. "As you've already surmised, your fanfiction for today is a crossover with David Eddings, also involving Sailor Moon and Ranma 1/2." He appeared thoughtful for a moment. "Words can not describe it, it must be experienced. Deal with it, pasty boy!" Lights flashed and buzzers blared in the Satellite of Love. "Oh, we got movie sign!" Joel shouted, as one at a time, the large doors to the cinema slid open. * * * > Jeffrey Lee wrote: > Well I was reading a fic on a cross for Ranma and > Eddings, so I decided that I would write one too but I > would add in Sailor Moon.

Crow: "Time for some serious luuuuvvvv..." Tom: You know, I've always wondered how deities and spirits actually, you know. Get it...nevermind. Joel: Good. You haven't drifted to the other way.

Tom: MARSHA!!!!! Joel: It was a low budget fic. They couldn't afford Ranma. Crow: Ranma was holding out for a percentage of the gross. Tom: No wonder Akane is steaming. Joel: If she's steaming, does that mean she could change Ranma...er...John back? Crow: Beh...there shouldn't be a John in this fic. This fic should be in the John. > > Running along side his fiancée John was speeding towards > the bus before it left.

Tom: Wow! It's rare you find plot conveniences that quickly! Joel: That's so nice of Cologne...almost makes you want to cry. Crow: This fic makes me want to cry. Tom: You know, why didn't Ran...er...John do this in the first place? Joel: Because Takahashi has some sense. > The days following that was such a good time for him, the > old ghoul and Happosai took him on a training trip for > six months training in a sub-dimension Joel: Sub-dimension?

Tom: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Crow: Uhm...Tom? It wasn't _that_ funny. I'd give it ten "ha"s. No more. Joel: I thought his name was "John," not "Goku." Tom: Dragonball is Maison Ikkoku compared to this. > When he had finally left the sub-dimension Cologne and > Happosai had told him that it was time for them to pass > on. Crow: Finally! Something good out of this fic! Tom: Happosai as Gandalf? Not!

I would have never imagined! Crow: Uhm...Joel? What are you doing? Joel: *taps his heels three times* There's no place like home, There's no place like home... Tom: Sorry. You have to suffer with us. Joel: ACK! *starts digging out his heart with a spoon* > Kodachi was another case, while he was gone, the her > father passed away due to a assassination.

Tom: Of course. > When John came back he saw Kodachi and felt and > overwhelming pity for her, she was sitting in her garden > trying to make a poison to kill herself. Tom: And he helped her. Crow: "C'mon Kodachi! You can do it!" Joel: "No, Kodachi! In your mouth!" > Wrestling the poison away from her, he managed to get her > to come live with him. Tom: Inviting her to John and Akane's place for dinner'll keep her alive. Inducing vomiting, you know. Joel: So will this fic, though. Tom: Ranmos: The Fic of Fate. Crow: You mean "Johnmos." > Finally there was Akane, the one fiancee he truly > loved, after a month of planning, he proposed to her and > agreed that they would marry. > Joel: Of course, Kodachi always made trouble, asking what John had done with Ranma. But they fed her Akane's cooking and it shut her right up. > Shampoo eventually rejected Mouse for the last time so he > left and married a girl named Conditioner. Kasumi also > married, to Dr. Tofu. Tom: My. What surprises. They certainly shocked me. I never expected them. And that name. How original. Yes, this is certainly a fine fanfic. Crow: It certainly is. Very fine. Yes. > In the midst of everyone getting married, John and Akane > planned their wedding after Nabiki's wedding. What they > did not know was Nodoka's planning behind them. Crow: [Nodoka] "Ranma's rear end is so manly!" Joel: Thank God! For a moment I was afraid there was a standard matchup that this author wasn't going to do! Tom: *sniffle* I always cry at cliche weddings. > John's mother Nodoka then did two things that changed > John's life forever and made it what it was today. After > John got married to Akane, Nodoka gave John the magical > water that split him in two, a Jane and a John. Jane was > John's female half, but now his sister. Crow: "Jane! Stop this crazy fic!!!" Joel: See Jane run. See Jane fight. See Jane star in crappy fic. Tom: Nodoka just wanted to see how manly her daughter would have been. > However, as great as that was, the second swift action > stunned everyone except Nodoka and Gemna. The two Saotome > heads adopted Ukyo, Kodachi, and Shampoo. Crow: And started an adolescent prostitution ring. Tom: [Genma] Served the little whores right. Joel: You know, that would be a pretty good fic. Crow: Yeah, not like this one. > And so it came to pass that Nodoka used some of her > family funds (which was a hell of a lot, think in the > billions) Tom: [Carl Sagan] Billions and billions. > and bought some of the surrounding land and houses around > the Tendo Dojo.

Crow: With Bill Gates as her concubine. > At last John had a real family, four sisters, all of whom > he loved very dearly, a wife, two sister-in-laws, two > brother-in-laws, a real father (Gemna really cleaned up > his act with the presence of four daughters), a father- > in-law, and a real mother. Joel: And a partridge in a pear tree. Tom: This is like WAFF without any of the interesting parts. Crow: It's like WAFF without the WAFF. > Life was great, just when he thought it couldn't get any > better, Tom: He WOKE UP! Crow: And a bus ran them all over and they died. Joel: Then Dr. Tofu fell down an open sewer. And so it went. Tom: Oh my! > John was borne a son by Akane just a year after their > marriage. Ukyo finally married Ryouga, as they too had a > son. John and the rest of them went off to college, and > were planning to transfer to a college in America later. Joel: And all live in the same dorm room. Crow: Just when you thought the fic couldn't get any stupider... > Nodoka and Gemna also had another pair of children > (twins!), named Keichii and Kimiko.

Joel: Let's explain to the viewers at home what we're doing. You see, today's story showed us how much easier and quicker it is to come up with a WAFF continuation and a crossover when you don't bother worrying about pesky little details and specifics like who did what when. We thought it would be a neat idea to try this for other fanfiction genres. What did you come up with, Crow? Tom: Wait a minute, Joel. Joel: What is it, Tom? Tom: Why are we talking in script all of a sudden? Joel: Uh, Cambot's sequencer must be on the blink again. Tom: Sure, Joel. We know it's really because the stupid authors were too lazy to coordinate their efforts. Crow: ANYWAY, I've written a darkfic. Joel: Wanna read some of it for us? Crow: 'Kay. A-HEM!

I've written an exciting tale in the "New character" genre. The Adventures of Taneuma Servo-san! Crow: I might've known you'd do a self-insertion. Servo: It is not! Just a coincidence. One day, the mighty Taneuma Servo showed up at the Tendo Dojo. He was forced to beat up all of the regulars due to some misunderstanding. It was soon cleared up, and he went on to seduce Nabiki. Joel: Thanks, Tom. Crow: Hey, Servo. Could you get me a printout of that story? Servo: Sure! Crow: Good! I need something to wipe the load pan bay with. Servo (angry): Are you making fun of the great Taneuma Servo?! Crow: The great Taneuma Servo can bite me! Joel: Settle down, you knuckle-knobs. Well, sirs, what do you... Servo: Hey Joel, aren't you forgetting someone? Joel: Huh? Crow: Yours, Joel! Is this it? [Picks up a pile of papers in front of Joel] Joel: (A little embarrassed.) Um, it's nothing, really. Just a little lemon I played around with. Not worth mentioning, really. Crow: Joel! There's *all kinds* of specific detail in this! Pages and pages worth! Servo: Let me see! (reads) Wow, Joel! I really like the descriptions of Shampoo and Kodachi! Joel: Guys.... Crow: Yeah! And I never knew you could do THAT with Jusenkyo water! Joel: Look, guys.
