It's been a year and a half since the sixth King of Iron Fist tournament ended. So much has been lost. The deaths of Wang Jinrei, Baek Doo San, and Eddy Gordo's master, and also the disappearance of Jin Kazama. In the heat of madness, new alliances have been formed. Lars has found out that Jin may be alive and now he must search for his nephew. He's also received information that Kazuya, his half brother and owner of G Corporation, may be on the hunt for Jin and plans to destroy him once and for all. Knowing that he doesn't have enough troops, he's now going to recruit new members. But first, Nina and Lars must go to Violet Industries to get back Alisa Bosconovitch.
"So this is it, huh?" Nina asks.
"Yep, she should be ready." Lars assumed.
As the two walk towards the office of Lee Chaolan, they notice he's a bit busy. Lars knock on the door, but no answer. He knocks again, yet still no answer. An agitated Nina takes her pistol and fires three shots at the door.
"[brief pause] Come in Nina." Lee shakily answers.
"I see you still remember my knocks." Nina says.
"Of course." Lee says , "You know I can't forget your crazy ass. By the way, you owe me a door."
"Enough of the chit chat." Lars interrupts. "You know what we've come for."
"And don't play any games." Nina threatens.
"[smiles] you sure you want to be threatening me. Whatever." Lee responds.
He tells one of his assistants to bring in Alisa. As Alisa enters the room she jumps into the arms of Lars as if shes learned to feel the emotion of a human.
"OK, what the hell is this?" Nina wonders.
"We did some very extensive work on her." Lee explained, "She's very unique and being that we were able to extract some DNA from members of her family. We were able to 'complicate' her existence."
"You mean make her more human?" Nina assumes.
"Yes. More or Less." Lee answers.
"I missed you Lars. What new troubles we're going to get into?" Alisa asks.
"We got a Kazama to find and not much time to do it." Lars explained. "You see, I need some new recruits that are going to help us and bring this craziness to an end. Now do you have anyone in mind we need to go and look for?"
"We can try these people." Alisa suggested
"Hwoarang, Lei Wulong, Eddy Gordo, Christie Monteiro, and Bryan Fury." Nina reads.
"Yes. Um....Ms. Nina? I also felt that I should involve your son, Steve Fox." Alisa also suggested.
"HE'S NOT MY DAMN SON. I DON'T HAVE A KID. DON'T EVER SAY THAT AGAIN!!!" Nina yells.
"Yes my apologies." Alisa apologizes
"So who can we go at first?" Lars wondered.
"Well, we should go see if we can get Hwoarang to join our cause even though he and Jin were rivals." Alisa suggests.
In Japan, the much publicized graduation of the latest graduating class of Mishima Polytechnic High School. A representative of Mishima Zaibatsuspoke and gave the enormous class of 179 students their diplomas. He also gave a moment of silence for Jin, who was a student at the school. As he calls Ling Xiaoyu's name, she came up to him almost lifeless, and depressed. She had recently learned that Jin Kazama had been reported dead, a news that floored her when she received it. As the assembly concluded, she was spotted by her friends Panda and Miharu.
"Why Miharu?" Xiao sobbed, "I saved a seat for him. I knew he would've been proud of me."
"Don't worry Xiao, it'll be OK. I'm sure he would've been. Now be happy. We graduated." Miharu insisted while trying to console her friend.
"I wish he was here though. There's so much for us to do. So much I wanted to say." Xiao thought.
"Excuse me Ms. Xiaoyu?" A man asked. "There's a young man who wants to see you."
Thinking the young man is Jin, she rushed to see who the young man man was. To her surprise, it was Hwoarang with Christie Monteiro. Puzzled, she wondered what he was doing there.
"W-What are you doing here? she asked.
"I was just in the neighborhood." Hwoarang answered.
"In the neighborhood?" Xiao asked in disbelief. "Whatever you say...anyway, hi Christie."
"Hi girl." Christie greeted and congratulated, "Congrats on your graduation."
"Thanks Christie. I guess." Xiao mumbles.
"Whats wrong?" Christie wondered, "Oh never mind, you're still grieving over what happened?"
"Look." Hwoarang interrupts, "We didn't come here to socialize. We came here because I might have a surprise for you. Meet me at the old dojo just outside of Tokyo at 7:00 pm."
"[sighs] OK whatever." Xiao answers.
Xiao, Miharu, Panda, and their parents celebrated at Marshall Law's new restaurant. Meanwhile at G Corporation's main base, Kazuya was having a meeting with Anna Williams and Bruce Irving. They too were discussing on new recruits for the search and destruction of Jin Kazama.
"Miguel, Lili, Kuma, and Bryan Fury huh?" Anna reads, "Not the best recruits, but I guess they'll do."
"You're missing the point." Kazuya says."They have one thing in common: Their extreme hatred for not only Jin but the entire Kazama side, and the Zaibatsu. They will be great assets. So go out and find them. Any failure and punishment will be severe."
At the old dojo, Christie and Hwoarang wait for Xiao and Panda, wondering if she accepted their offer. "You think she's coming?" Christie wondered. "Maybe." Hwoarang answered. Finally, Xiao and Panda arrives even though she didn't want to.
"So what do you want?" Xiao asked with a disgusted look on her face.
"It's about Jin" Hwoarang reveals the reason for his invitation.
"WHAT!!!!!" Xiao exclaims behind Panda's loud growl, "MY JIN?"
"Yeah, apparently there's more than what we've been told."
"What Hwoarang? Tell me! Whats going on?"Xiaoyu asked.
Before he could reveal the information, A squad of Tekken Force soldiers barged in."Hwoarang!, Christie Monteiro!, Ling Xiaoyu!, and Panda! You must come with us." One of the soldiers announced. "Make me " Hwoarang snapped while looking for a bit combat. A fight broke out. The Tekken Force was no match for the 4 fighters. Hwoarang unleashed his dynamite heel to two soldiers at the same time. Christie showed why she's the most skilled female Capoeira fighter around by dodging punches and responding with deadly swift kicks. Xiao and Panda made quick work of the remaining soldiers with Panda's raging paw, and Xiao's skilled Phoenix stance in addition to her powerful kicks. Before Hwoarang could finish off one of the wounded soldiers, someone appeared from out of the darkness at lightning speed and stopped his kick. it was Lars. "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?" Hwoarang yelled. "I'll tell you if you can beat me and I do mean IF." The two combatants fought each other to the best of their abilities, landing intense blows to the other, yet it was the experience of Lars that won the battle.
"That''s enough. fall back." Lars called to his soldiers. "Come with me?" He offered.
"Why should we?" Christie wondered. "You just tried to kick the hell out of us."
"Because if you don't, an army of giant pissed off robots will throw your heads in the river." Nina answers.
"So what's going on about Jin?" Xiao asked repeatedly.
"Well I see you know too huh?" Lars says.
"Know what? what is going?!" Xiao eagerly and repeatedly asks.
After a brief silence Nina revealed the answer. "Jin may be alive."
"WHAT?...O THANK GOODNESS!!! HOW? WHAT HAPPENED?" A relieved Xiao asked curiously.
"Well if you want to know." Lars explains, "We found out that a body was discovered in the desert not too from where Jin and myself battled Azazel. When we sent a scout team to investigate, they found traces of blood that matched his. Now here's the thing: Nina discovered that the blood wasn't coagulated, which means he wasn't dead, he was very much alive. Where he was taken is yet a mystery."
"So Why did you announce his death then? If you knew he was alive why not say it?" Christie wondered.
"You don't understand." Nina says "The whole world hated Jin for that stuff he pulled. Nobody would've cared. Also we figured G corporation would be listening, and if we announced that he may be alive they will try to hunt him down and destroy. For all we know, they might know also."
"They're right." Hwoarang agrees, "Kazuya will go into search and destroy mode. If you don't get to him before he does, he's deadmeat."
"Well that's where you come in." Alisa says.
"W-What you mean?" Xiao curiously asks
"Well we want you to join us. Join the Tekken Force. We have to find him and save him." Alisa offered.
"Why should I help y'all?" Hwoarang wondered, "I don't want to 'save him'. I want to find him and finish 'OUR WAR'."
"I read your file." Lars says. "About how you and Jin are bitter rivals, but think about it, if we lose him. You lose you 'war'. Now do you want that on your conscience?"
"Well, I want to save my Jin. And nothing will keep me away from him." Xiao proclaims. "I'm in." She and panda accepts.
"I'll join too." Christie accepts "C'mon my love. I want to do this. You know you wanna go. At least you'll have help in finding him."
"[sighs] I don't need any help finding him." Hwoarang snaps at all of them.
Before Lars, Alisa, Nina, and some soldiers from the Tekken Force leave with their new recruits, Hwoarang stops them "We find Jin. I will fight him, and you better not jump in."Lars looks at Hwoarang and says "You two can go in the backyard and play Rock-Paper-Scissors for all I care. My main concern is to get to him before G Corp does."Hwoarang nods his head and accepts the offer. Now the new team members were Xiaoyu, Christie, Hwoarang and Panda.
"So who else y'all recruiting?"Hwoarang wonders.
"Well Det. Lei Wulong is our next target." Alisa answers "My sensors indicate that he's been moved here after the 6th tournament."
While the new Tekken Force regrouped. A mysterious figure was watching from the darkness. It's hair was blowing in the wind, and its face was covered by the hood of its cape. Before they boarded the ship, Nina catches a glimpse of the figure. She's frozen as if she know who it is. "It can't be. It can't be you." Nina says in disbelief. "Has the fearless enigma returned? Has the one who probably could help us all finally come.? Could it be it be you........JUN KAZAMA?" Before she could look closely the figure vanished. Could Jun Kazama be alive? Or is it Eddy Gordo, Christie's mentor and former Tekken Force member who when M.I.A. after the 6th tournament? Or has someone else has decided watch them all? Or maybe...The mysterious figure is Jin Kazama, the very man they are looking for.
