Chapter One

As the D.O.A.3 Tournament ended, Hayate, leader of the Shinobi Clan, became the winner of the DOA3 Tournament.

Leon, one of the competitors of the tournament, sat on a chair in his house thinking of the tournament and losing to Hayate.

Leon said to himself, "If I didn't miss Hayate with my arm grenade I would have been the victor of the tournament for sure. And I know I'm the strongest man for Rolande."

Feeling depressed, he heard a knock at the door. Getting up, Leon went over to open the door to see who it was.

There stood a tall, muscular man with blonde hair and blue eyes. He grinned to Leon and greeted, "Hey, may I come in?"

Leon just smirked back and answered, "Come on in Kano."

As Kano went into the house, Leon closed the door and sat across Kano. His friend knew that Leon had a lot of thing in his mind.

Smiling at his buddy Kano said, "I heard that you lost to Hayate, if you haven't lost to Hayate you would have been the victor of the tournament."

Leon just looked back and said in a low voice, "Not only would I have been the victor of the tournament, but I would have finished that promise I made to Rolande. To be the strongest man in the world she had asked me to be."

Kano looked at the floor and gave Leon a sad look. "Leon, sometimes we win some, and sometimes we lose some, that's life."

There was a moment of dead silence as Leon was just thinking in his mind of what Rolande said to him before she died.

"The man I love is the strongest man in the world."

As these words hunted Leon, Kano just looks at Leon with understanding of his pain.

"Leon, whenever I feel down or sad there is something that relaxes me and makes me forget all my sorrows. Opera is a good way to forget all of your sorrows."

Leon looked back at his longtime friend with a surprise look on his face. He then made a small laugh. "Kano, I can't believe you, the leader of the Iron Knuckle Gang, like to listen to Opera."

Kano winked before standing up and giving Leon a ticket. "This ticket is for the Opera show tonight at 8. That is if you want to go."

Leon looked at the ticket and stare at Kano before letting out a chuckle. "Thanks Kano, I might just go to see this Opera show. It might take away some of my grief."

Kano went to the door and said goodbye to Leon and left. After he was all alone in his house again, Leon looked at the clock to see he had two hours before the show.
