Against all odds

Summary: They are rivals... but can rivals find comfort in each other? Can they really love each other? Or can they defeat the odds against them? (Jin-Hwoarang).

A/N: MY VERY first Tekken fan fic! PLEASE be gentle… I started reading a few stories from all of you… and then I wanted to write my own story… but with my pair! Hwoarang / Jin. So this is also a warning! Don't read this fic if you have anything against Slash, MALE/MALE. This is a fair warning! All flames against the couple will be spit on and thrown out with the trash! ;)

DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything. Everything belongs to NAMCO!


Chapter 1: Why are you here?

It was just great being home in Korea. The tournament was supposed to be held here… But it didn't mean I had to stay in some expensive hotel. I just stayed home. Beside it only took 1 hour getting to the fighting area.

I loved the silence near the harbor nothing could ruin this moment.

It was just all the big ships and I.

I yawned. This was just perfect. It was also only 6 o'clock in the morning… so no one was intelligent enough to go outside. Them about that! All the fighters were at the hotel. And Jin of course… Man I hated that guy. He deserved to be defeated… not by any of the other jerks… but by me! I would teach him a fair lesson! Damn him. I placed my hands behind my head and lay down on the hard stones. I looked up in the gray morning. This would be a perfect day! Suddenly a loud sound interrupted my perfect morning. I fast jumped up. "Hey. What the heck is going on! Show yourself!" I yelled. "You freakin' ruined my moment," I said. No I wasn't after a fight… okay I was but hey who cared! Baek was still on the hospital… he had been attacked by Ogre. I would revenge him. He was like a father for me. My parents died when I was very young.

I looked around… nothing. That was weird.

There! A man ran toward me. He was bleeding… and his… I knew who he was. It was Jin. Jin was Heihachi's PROUD grandson. Like there was anything to be proud of! I laughed evilly. "What the heck, are you doing here Kazama?" I asked.

He just looked at me. His dark eyes showed no emotions. "…Get away…" he simply ordered.

I had never seen him like that… hell I had never seen him in my town! "Answer my question," I said.

He moved closer to me. Then he closed his eyes and passed out.

"Perfect Kazama… couldn't you just have asked if you could go to my place? Did you have to be such a drama king?" I asked ironically. "Oh well" I kneeled and helped him to stand. He was still passed out… but luckily he wasn't that heavy. Okay he was heavier than me… but hell who wasn't? I managed to carry him home to my flat and placed him in my sofa. "Hey Kazama… wake up!" I yelled. No respond. "You don't expect I'm supposed to baby sit you all day… I have a life you know?" I asked.

That woke him up. "Hwoarang?" he asked shocked. "…Why"

"I'm here?" I asked. "Your in my flat. You passed out near the harbor remember?" I asked. "Well I better get you at a hospital" I said.

"No" Kazama said harsh. "I'm not going to any hospital"

"Listen Kazama I can't have you here. Beside your wounded and your grandfather own the hospital they could take extra good care of you. You could grope on the nurses," I said. I sat down on a chair. "No way I can baby sit you," I said.

"Because my grandfather own the hospital," he simply answered.

"Aw come on that's not a good enough reason!" I said. I took a deep breath. "Man your wounded you should go there"

"Because I don't like nurses?" Kazama asked ironically.

"What about taking me serious for a second!" I asked. Man that guy was pissing me of! He was so annoyed!

He sighed. "My grandfather chased me with Ogre" he answered completely honest.

"So to the hotel" I said. Maybe it was my consciences… maybe it was the corn flakes I ate for breakfast… but I couldn't just let him go wounded to a hotel. "Alright you can stay… but this doesn't make us friends Kazama!" I said.

He shook his head. "Thank you"

I ignored it. "Take a nap you look bushed," I said.

"Hwoarang what were you doing at a harbor so early?" Kazama asked. "Don't tell me… you want to be a fisher"

"None of your god damn business Kazama" I said harsh.

He sighed like he was… disappointed. "What about taking me serious for a second?" he repeated the very same words I had used against him.

Man that wasn't fair! "You forget I'm a street thug leader… I like being there in the morning" I answered.

He smiled… but his smile froze and I knew he was in pain.

"Wait a sec" I left the living room and entered my bathroom. My first aid box was in here somewhere… I found it and returned to Kazama. "Hey you okay?" I asked and kneeled down beside the sofa. Man he really had some scars. But nothing serious… or anything that could turn out to be serious. I found a cloth and placed a few drops of disinfectant on it. I gently stroke him over his scars.

He suddenly raised himself stopping me from making another move.

"Seriously Kazama… don't be such a cry baby… Unless you really want to go to the hospital, then I have to do something about these scars," I said. I pushed him down on the sofa and continued my work.

He raised himself again and this time his arms appeared around of my neck squeezing me closer.

"Seriously… Ka-zama" I said and fought to catch my breath. "Don't be such a cry baby. It only hurts for a few seconds…" I said. "Come on… I'll be fast I promise" he let me go and I fast finished my job. "Good job… I think you have survived it…"

He didn't respond… he had fallen asleep.

"Sleep well Kazama" I found a blanket and placed it on him. "And don't have dreams about me" I smirked. Nah he didn't hear it… he was sleeping.

I yawned and left the living room to take a shower. I was supposed to visit Baek… and I couldn't look like a mess in front of my mentor…
