The settiong is the main palace of the Salusian Royal family on the planet Salusia, which is home to a race of Skunk-like people. A building that looked like any large, modern building in New York. Reflective one-sided glass covers the outside in almost the building's entirety.
In one of the halls of the palace, there are mirrors all along the walls, with the floor an alternating pattern of black and white marble tiles. We see the King of Salusia, a slightly overweight Salusia, with a white beard, speaking to his daughter, the blonde-haired princess, Asrial.
The King sighed as he stood by Asrial. "I've instructed the fleet to give you clear pasage up to the jump point. Now remember, Asrial... Try not to make the human feel inferior..."
Sighing, Princess Asrial said, "I'll try, father." The King stared at his daughter. "You must understand, daughter. It is very important that the planet earth does not fall into the hands of the Zardons."
Asrial looked at her father, "But, why don't you simply make peace with the Earthers?"
The Salusian King glared at his daughter. "Make peace with those... Those... Those DEVILS!? Never! It is they who should surrender to us! Besides, having a common enemy is good for business..."
"But... Father..." Asrial tried.
The King sighed. "Asrial, you know if my son, your eldest brother had not abdicated the throne, and were still part of this family, I would have sent him to negotiate some treaty... But since you're all I have, marriage is the only recourse left to me to bind the planet Earth to the Salusian Conglomerate."
Asrial's ear twitched in irritation. "Of course, father... How very thoughtful of you..." She said, trying to keep her anger down.
The King nodded his head. "Good. Now huury, daughter and get ready. I have a meeting with the I.C.S. accountants in an hour." And with that, the King turned and left.
Turning to walk the other way down the hall, Asrial sighed. She's be forced to marry some boy she didn't know, just to start good relations with Planet Earth. She stopped when she heard a voice call out her name. "Asrial."
Looking around, Asrial saw a red-haired adult Salusian woman with a hair-style and wearing a dress right out of 17th century France, the kind reserved for royalty. "Momma..."
Asrial moved over to her mother and looked her in the eyes. "Momma, why does father always do this to me!?" She practically cried as she held onto the sides of her head.
The Queen sighed. "Be brave my child. It is for the best, you'll see..."
Asrial sniffled. "I suppose..."
"Do not be sad, Asrial." The Queen said as she placed a hand on her daughter's shoulder. "Your responsibility is great, but I have great confidence that you will make me very proud."
"I hope so momma..." Asrial said. Her eyes then narrowed in determination. "Ooooh... I wish that planet Earth never existed!"
The Queen managed a smile. Oh, tish-tosh. Don't say such things, Asrial. Everything has a purpose in the universe. Our life in the universe is too short to be filled with regret. You must not look forward to your future with fear, disgust, or hatred. Instead, you must look at the future knowing you will gain new knowledge, and march forward with the spirit of adventure."
Asrial nodded her head, tears at the corners of her eyes. "But momma... I'll miss Salusia... I'll miss you..."
The Queen nodded her head. "I would not expect otherwise." She then gave her daughter a hug, which Asrial happily returned. Breaking the hug, she said, "Now go on, my child. Your flight will leave soon, and you have to prepare."
Asrial nodded. "I do not look forward to having to take human form."
The Queen smiled. "You won't. Where you're going, the people are very open-minded, and very little phases them."
Asrial blinked. THAT surprised her. "Where am I going on earth?"
Smiling, the Queen said, "A small city known as 'Nerima'... And don't worry. I personally chose the boy. I am sure he would be nice to you."
Asrial looked at her mother. "Really?"
Smiling, the Queen said, "Of course. Ranma Saotome is truly a man among men. He would do anything to help anyone, even those who do not deserve it."

In her spaceship, Princess Leeana of the Zardonian Empire stared at the large screen. She was currently watching teh conversation between the Queen and Princess of Salusia. Her spy satellites giving her very clear details. "So... They plan to make ties between Earth and Salusia by having the Princess marry an earth human?"
An evil smirked crept across Leeana's lips. "SUPREME!!!"
Hearing the call, a small 2'6" tall dog man in black armor with orange trim ran over to the Princess in the violet and gold armor. "What is it, my liege?"
Smiling, Leeana said, "Dog Supreme. Set a course for Planet Earth."
"Planet Earth?" Dog Supreme asked. "Whatever would you want to go to that back-water mudball of a planet for?"
Her smile widened. "The Salusian Empire thinks to have a Princess marry someone of 'princly' material from Earth so that theu may lay claim to the planet Earth and gain the people's support against us! Well, I'll show them! As Princess of the Zardonian Empire, I shall gain the Planet Earth as our allies!"
"How do you plan to do that?" Dog Supreme asked.
Leeana's smile relaxed into a smirk. "How? Simple. I SHALL MARRY THE MAN ASRIAL WILL SEARCH FOR!!!"
Dog Supreme face-faulted.

The planet Aebra. A planet which is home of the Kryn a race of humans that had evolved from cats. A beautifully disgned crystal, steel, and sandstone palace lays in the center of a city with similar buildings. The courtyard in the center of the palace is filled with trees and many plants, giving much greenery to the courtyard.
In the center of the courtyard, a woman sits on the edge of the fountain. There is a cat-like woman sitting there. She has tanned fur a deep, rich red hair done in a thick braid which reached down below her waist. She looked down into the waters, studying the ripples.
The Kryn woman was Jalliele'Brea. More commonly known as 'Archon', (Empress) she was the ruler of the planet Aebra. She weilding one of the ancient artifacts, a tiara fused to her forehead which granted her teleportation powers and slight control of telepathy. The planet was very beautiful know, hoving been built back up from the attack years previously by the Dynasty of Stars.
However, she was a lonely woman. She was a victim of 'love at first sight'. She had fallen in love with her plants hero, Prince Stryyp'Gia. A Kryn prince that had lead the Kryn colony, the nation of El Dorado. She had tried to get close to him, to get him to let her into his heart.
But he denied her.
Archon sighed. She wasn't a jealous woman. However, she somehow felt 'cheated'. Stryyp would not give her a chance. Instead he went back to earth to be with his fiancee. A werecheetah named Britanny.
"Hmm... Still... Stryyp said his heart was on earth... And I myself have not been able to find anyone on Aebra."
Jalliele'Brea, the Archon of Aebra smiled as a thought came to her. "Perhaps I should take a small trip to earth. If Prince Stryyp'Gia can find happiness among the Earth populace, then perhaps I can as well..."
Standing up from the fountain, Archon made her way across the courtyard and into the palace. She had a trip to arrange.

The Palace of the Stars. A Dark and forboading floating castle. Currently in a cloaking device so that no one would be able to track them, the castle floated forbodingly in space.
In the main throne room of the Dynasty, Emperor Rio and his Empress Riel sat on their thrones, as their granddaughter Uriel knelt prostrate before them. She had red-hair and wore brown and teal robes with a green cloack. The line-green tatoo around her red eye stood out amongst her pale face that was framed by her long red hair. "You called upon me, your excellencies?"
Rio nodded his head. "Gradndaughter. We have and important mission for you. The Fate of the Dynasty of the Stars rests on your shoulders."
Uriel nodded her head. "What may I do for you, my emperor?"
"Granddaughter," Riel began, "What my husband is trying to say is, is that we need you to head out and find a husband. A strong man whose blood-line will strengthen the Dynasty of the Stars once more."
Uriel was shocked. "W, w, what? You want me to marry someone and have a child of my own? But, this is so soon!"
"We know it is." Rio agreed. "However, we are desperate to save the Dyansty from extinction. You must udnerstand."
Uriel sighed. "I understand. But where shall I head to?"
"We have decided to send you to a world that you are very familiar with." Riel began. "The planet Earth."
