It was quite unlikly that Genma realized the full potential of the alien DNA that he had been trying to fuse to his sons genetic structure. In such indiviuals as Sil and Eve the combination of human and alien DNA united to produce an entity that could heal practcally any wound that wasn't insantly fatal and then adapt so that to become impervious, or at least resistant, to whatever had wounded it.
At his current level Ranma was not as strong as the more physiclly mature Sil, however his biology did have one advantage that hte older hybrid lacked, an unactvated X-gene to play with.
Upon hearing that the mother he never knew was going to be captured by the madman that was using him an his mates as experimental resourses Ranmas instincts, that he'd been trying to keep under control until he was completely sure about whic he should and shouldn't obey, broke free.
Senses that had no name in the human tounge analysed the room and found the weakest spot, animal instincts oder that the sabretoothed tiger drove the young Saotome at it.
In another room Sinister watched with interest as the boy located the deffect that he'd deliberatly built into the cell. So the child had some sort of natural ability to sense and seek out weaknesses in obstcles and, presumably, enemis. Interesting.
Still it was of no concern even if that spot was weaker it was still enough to contain the boy, his power being insufficient to breach plates of secondary adamantium.
Ranma snarled animalistically as he shifted to his hybid form. Even with the added strength that came with the transformation he still didn't have enough.
Dammit, he needed MORE!!!
Will is a wonderful thing. It can give strength to the weak, it can turn cowerds into berzerkers, it can keep a person going when to all intents and purposes they should be dead. Now Ranmas will drove at his cell with the NEED for more. With no toher options availible the alien DNA jump started the X-gene within him.
The results were impreesive.
Thousands of tiny tendril lept out of Ranmas arms, shoulders, chest, even his face, and began to attack the plate before him at the moleculare level. Bit by bit, at an incredible rate, tiny pieves of the metal were broken off the barrier and absorbed into Ranmas system. There it was carried along by his cells to all the points of his body where the metal could be of use.
Outer shell, claws, teeth, all were being re-enforced with the material extracted from the barrier. Even as it became weaker Ranma became stronger.
