AU notes: this is an AU set shortly after the first episode of Season 8 (meaning Jack is in comand of the SGC)
Stargate Command, Cheyenne Mountain USA
0800 HRS MRT August 25, 2004
Brigadier General Jonathan “Jack” O’Neal was not a happy man, not one bit, for today he was hit with an unusual request from there allies in the Japanese Self Defense Force, they were sending a man to fill the numbers back up for the SGCs premier team SG-1, currently lead by Lieutenant-Colonel Samantha Carter.
“General,” came the voice of his Yeomen, “The person from the JSDF is here.”
Jack sighed, “Send him in,” he leaned back in his chair as he waited for the guy to enter.
The door opened as a man in his early 20s stepped into the office his uniform is pressed, the rank of Major clearly shown on the arms, his blue eyes sparkled a keen intellect, the only thing off with this officer was the fact he had his hair tied back in a pig tail, “Major Ranma Saotome reporting, sir,” he said with a minor accent and a crisp salute.
Jack returned the salute and said, “At ease major,” before adding, “the formality is giving me headaches.”
Ranma relaxed greatly, “You and me both sir,” he said as he sat down.
“Your superiors forwarded me your service record,” Jack said finally getting down to business, “your training scores are impressive but what makes them think you can cut it for SG-1?”
Ranma smirked slightly, “Frankly sir, I’ve had 10 years of sadistic martial arts training from a man who I thought was my father, 3 years non stop combat.” He said calmly before continuing, “And that’s before I joined the JSDF.”
Jack whistled at the accomplishments Ranma stated before looking at the notice in the file. He raised one eyebrow and said, “Says here you got a water based curse you picked up in China, care to explain?”
Ranma looked sheepish at that statement, “Ah…didn’t think they would’ve kept that bit of info in there,” he stuttered out before answering, “yeah I’ve had it since I was sixteen years old, Genma, the man who I thought was my father, took me to this cursed training ground called Jusenkyo, literally the Pools of Sorrow, basically it looks like a simple training ground, bamboo poles in several pools, I knocked the moron into the spring of the drowned panda, a tragic tale of panda who drowned there 700 years ago. Boy was I shocked when he came out of the pool in the form of a Panda. Being caught by surprise I didn’t see him come up and knock me into the Nyaniichan or spring of the drowned girl.” He finished.
Jack just sat there nonplused over the whole story, “Okay so you turn into a girl how does this ‘curse’ work.”
“Quite simple,” he said before going into an imitation of the Jusenkyo guide, “Curse actives when hit with cold water, hot water cures curse but only temporary,” before switching back to his normal voice, “I would like to wait till the rest of SG-1 is around before I activate the curse.”
Jack just sat there blinked acouple of times at Ranma’s shifting to a voice with an even heavier accent before saying, “Okay, I believe they should be ready in the briefing room,” he said as he sat up and headed for the door.
Ranma stood up straighten out his Uniform before following shutting the door behind him.

Briefing Room
Stargate Command
“Can someone explain why we are in here again?” asked Doctor Daniel Jackson, SG-1’s Linguist, Historian and so far earths leading expert on the Ancients, the builders of the Stargate network.
“It is my understanding Daniel Jackson that General O’Neil said it would be a surprise,” The Jaffa Teal'c, the former first prime of the Goa’uld system lord Apophis.
“My question is this,” asked SG-1’s leader Lieutenant-Colonel Samantha Carter, “What is Jack up too?”
“Ask and you shall receive,” Jack said as he and a Japanese Self Defense Force officer entered the Briefing Room, “Sam, Teal’c, and Daniel meet Major Ranma Saotome JSDF,” he said gesturing to the Asian with black hair and an unusual trait of blue eyes.
The three veteran members of SG-1 looked at each other in surprise, “Boy Jack when you said it was a surprise you really did mean it,” Daniel said finally before getting up and bowing to Ranma and started in Japanese, “Forgive me for my rudeness but welcome to Stargate Command.”
Ranma bowed as well before saying in English, “No need to apologize Dr. Jackson,” as he extended his hand out, which Daniel took in a hand shake. Ranma walked over to Colonel Carter and saluted.
Colonel Carter stood up and returned Ranma’s salute, “What is your specialty Major?”
“Combat and infiltration ma’am,” Ranma said bluntly, “I’ve been trained in the martial arts ever sense I was six years old, been on a 10 year training journey that had it’s ups and down, had nearly three years in a walking combat suitation, including fights with the Dragon Prince of the Musk Herb, the Seven Lucky Gods Martial Artists, finally a battle with a Phoenix God King named Saffron whom I had no choice but to kill.”
Daniel blinked at the sheer number of Asian legends he mentioned he’s fought, “Excuse me Ranma but did you say Musk, Seven Lucky Gods and the Phoenix King?”
Ranma nodded, “That’s right Doc,” he smirked slightly at that, “I take you heard of the legends how about the Chinese Amazons near Jusenkyo?”
Daniel’s eyes widen, “Them too,” he had heard about the Warrior women and there off the wall laws they went by, “How many were out to Marry you with there laws?”
Ranma just chuckled, “Only one, but thankfully I was able to get out of it thanks to two things, one I defeated Saffron the Phoenix God King, and two, once my mother found out the methods they used to try and get me back to there village lets just say it wasn’t pretty.”
“You also said you are and infiltration specialist,” Teal’c asked.
Ranma sighed he knew this would come, “Thanks to a blessing from the Cursed Training grounds of Jusenkyo,” he started as he grabbed the pitcher of water and poured some in a glass, “I have a curse that changes my appearance.” With that said he dumped the glass of cold water over his head and suddenly right in front of SG-1 and General O’Neil’s eyes he became a shorter bustier red haired girl.
Daniel’s eyes bugged out at the change, sure he knew of the Pools of Sorrow but he didn’t know how the curse worked and exclaimed, “So it’s true the Pools really do exist?”
Teal’c just sat there with one eyebrow raised in a look of amusement and amazement.
Sam on the other hand was speechless; here she was standing in front of a woman who just a second ago was a man. In seeing if this was real or an illusion she reached out and poked one of female Ranma’s breasts.
Ranma blushed as she felt Sam’s finger poke her chest, “Ano Colonel could you please stop that?” As if Ranma’s voice snapped her out of her daze Sam withdrew her finger from Ranma’s bosom.
Jack just stood there looking at the exchange before saying, “Is that it? I was expecting something little more drastic in your change.”
Ranma looked up to the General, “What do you mean sir?”
“I mean bones snapping as you shrink in size, howls of pain and whatnot,” Jack explained.
Ranma chuckled slightly, “Sorry to burst your bubble General but that is how the curse works,” She said as she went to poor herself a cup of coffee, “So as you see cold water turns me into a woman, hot water on the other hand,” she dumped the cup of hot coffee over her head turning her back to her natural form, a guy.
“Okay,” Jack said trying to get this briefing back on track, “now that introductions are over with I would like to inform you three that he’s gonna be working with you guys.”
“Indeed,” Teal’c said still with one eyebrow raised and was about to say more as an alarm sounded.
“Unscheduled off world activation,” came the voice of the tech in the control room near the gate room.
so what do you guys think on this and any suggestions for a title.
