Akamatsuverse LH/King of Fighters xover idea

OK, here's the basic premise: Keitaro is an Orochi descendant.

"Cool! Badass Keitaro!"

...um. No. Keitaro will be his normal wimpy self, possibley even less sociable. His toughness is caused by his Orochi blood. He also has a problem in that, if he is overstressed, he'll flip out like Iori and leona do, and become hideosly strong and very violent. However, unlike the normal Riot and more like the Nekoken, he will snap out of it if he finds something - or someone - who feels nice. Either way, he'll remember nothing of his actions.

The only two who can actually stop him are Shinobu and Kanako. Mutsumi might well also be able to calm him down. Everyone else, he'll attack, with potentially fatal results, so the girls understandably are scared of him - well, most of them. Shinobu feels sorry for him and thinks he's cute (lol), while Kaolla just finds it cool when he goes off teh deep end.

Naru is just scared of him, while Motoko was initially convinced he was a demon, but upon hearing 'Orochi' became very scared, and only the Yata clan's heiress, Chizuru Kagura, calmed her down from her panic. She's still wary around Keitaro, but that'll mostly be it.

The key thing is that until he gets to Hinatasou, he doesn't KNOW that he flips out. He has his suspicions, and is afraid of being close to people - in no small part because he once flipped out and killed several people, though he doesn't remember - but Grandma Hina and Haruka think that having girls around him may help him open up. Unfortunately, as you can guess, first contact went less than well. :snigger:

Sooo... that's it. Thoughts?

Hmm, sounds like it would be good, also a possibility for some Kei/Kan loving there as she's the only on besides Shinobu who can snap him out of it so you could change it so that they were never seperated because the family wanted her to stay with Keitaro so as to snap him out of it if he did go into a rage, thus she's with him when he shows up at the Hinata Sou and from there you just insert some emotional stuff and *poof* there you go, Keitaro/Kanako action.

Evil Keitaro - even if it's only 1/5th of the time - has my support, and some action with Our Lady Kanako can only improve things.

Sounds good to me. Can't wait to see what happens to Keitaro and the girls when he's evil some of the time. :p

He's not evil. Just completely out of control and very violent. But yeah, that should be amusing.

This also makes room for a little Keitari/Tsuruko as an experienced swordswomen would have knowledge in stuff like that...

No, we need more Kietaro/Kanako, there are all ready a number of fics with Kei/Tsu, now we need some Kei/Kan loving. :wub:

Heh. Yeah. I mean, I love Kei/Tsu fics like the next person. But they are becoming quite numerous now. Heck, when I started thinking about keeping the husband alive, there were litterally no Kei/Tsu fics with that premise. Now? We have three including my own. From all appearances, it appears Kei/Tsu could be the next Kei/Mot. Getting to the point of a little too much IMO.

Kei/Kan... plenty of room here! ^_^ Especially a good one at that (haven't really seen a good one being made).

There's also room for a possible Keitaro/Chizuru if I REALLY want to xover it, since Chizuru Kagura is one of the few capable of restraining Orochi blood...

Does he have any control over the flames or knowledge of his heritage? On the pairing, how about Chizuru and Kanako both trying to get Keitaro.

He has no flames at all, nor elemental powers. If I did make him related to someone, it'd probably be either Mature or Vice... Probably Vice, since she's the only pureblood Orochi affected by the rage.

Knowledge of his heritage will come with the Hinata incident and Chizuru showing up.

As for Chizuru and Kanako... Kanako still pushes people away from keitaro, but this time it's out of concern for their safety. She KNOWS how bad things can go if he flips, and thus keeps both keitaro and others safe.

One question, would Haruka be able to control him or calm him down? She would be family that he would trust, after all.

As for who he should be related to, I'd say make him related to Yamazaki. He never shows much as far as Heavenly King powers go and he's basically half-riot all the time. You could even add a bit where when Kei goes nuts he starts doing Ryuji's insane cackle, and having Kanako-shan recognize anytime her oniichan starts laughing as a major waning sign.

Vice has telltale signs too. When she hunches over or starts grinning like a maniac, that's your cue to run. The only time Vice grins is when she's thinking about inflicting violent death on someone.

Also, Yamazaki is overused. :unsure!:

Of course, I could go teh REALLY screwed up way and have him be Yashiro's kid. :snigger:

Whatever, just get this written, I'm hooked already.

Also, will we be seeing the awesomeness that is Terry Bogard anywhere in the fic?

Nope. At most, we'll see Chizuru Kagura, and possibly Shingo Yabuki as one of Keitaro's few friends.

I can live with that.

I can't wait to see his reaction to Motoko for the first time. :)

All right, peeps. Tomorrow I whip up chapter 1 of this fic. I need a title for it though. Hints?

As a bonus, a small excerpt from Chapter 1:

----

As Motoko angrily approached the hunched over form of Keitaro, her sword drawn, he slowly turned around and she stopped dead in her tracks, eyes widening in shock.

The young man's irises had turned from their usual brown to a dull red, and the white of his eyes was heavily bloodshot. Steam escaped from his lips every time he exhaled, and his lips were curled back in a bestial snarl. A sinister hissing sound came from him as his baleful gaze fell on her, and Motoko felt a wave of fear wash over her. By the kami, she thought, what IS this monstrosity? A demon?

Her question was answered by a loud snarl as Keitaro suddenly threw himself at her, fingers curled up in a claw-like position. Motoko ducked in time to avoid a swipe from the flailing boy, but a loud crunch attracted her gaze to the spot before the wall where her head used to be, and her eyes widened even further. Keitaro's hand had ripped a porton of the wall off like wet paper, and even though his fingers were now bleeding, the boy seemed to not notice.

----

Hehehe. Sooo... please submit titles! I stink at them. :sweat: Thank you!! :yay:

Also, question: should I have Kanako accompany him?

One more question. I'm considering how to do this, but most Orochi individuals wouldn't just settle down and have a kid. So either I make this an AU where Keitaro's dad/mom was a Heavenly King, or I make Keitaro a distant descendant of a Heavenly King of the past, whose blood was awakened several years prior due to the weakening of Orochi's seal caused by Goenitz killing Maki Kagura.

Either choice works, and I'd probably have either Mature or Vice be the mothers, while on the father side, Yashiro Nanakase works. This'd give Keitaro a divorced parent... hmm...

Thoughts?

Yes, it could be easily justified that she was sent to accompany him because she was one of the only ones who could calm him down once he went berserk.

I'd opt for the second one but, as you said, either one works.

Hmm... Holyknight has pointed out a problem with ages and timeframe. Given that aside from Mature and Vice (whose age isn't stated), the other Heavenly Kings are too young to have given birth to/fathered Keitaro, the only viable choice is Leopold Goenitz, the King of Wind, who was old enough to know Leona's father... and as of KoF96, Leona was 21, like Keitaro, which would make Goenitz at least 40, if not 50, IMHO.

Hmmm... perhaps Goenitz had a relationship with Keitaro's mother when she was still unmarried, and left her after making sure she was with child (never know when you may need an heir or an Orochi host). Keitaro's mother then married his father, who was still willing despite her being with another's child... and the rest, as tehy say, is history.

Thoughts?

EDIT: correction, Leona was born in 1978, which at the time of KoF96, would make her 18 years old, and by the time of KoF2k3 makes her 25.

Keitaro was 21 at the time of LH, IIRC, which was in... 1995? 1996? So he was likely born at least 3 years before.

Goenitz's age of birth was unknown, but in 1986 he appeared exactly as he is now, so he's plenty old enough to be Keitaro's father. Most peg him to be around 50, but since he seems to age slower than humans, it's not sure.

The beginning of the manga was in late 1998, and Keitaro was 19 at the time. I'm not sure about the anime.

I say go with the "distant descendant" option, since it's simpler and with less chances of plotholes than trying to find a Heavenly King to take the place of one or both of Keitaro's parents.
