Tekken: Devil's journey.
This is a Tekken fic set a couple of weeks after Tekken 5. I'm using Jin's ending as the main one because, well he kicks ass! Anyway, here's the first chapter. (Tell me if you like it cause if you don't…well I'll just stop and do something else. Lol) Oh and this is my first Tekken fic so go easy!
CHAPTER 1: The New Tournament.
Hong Kong. Probably one of the busiest cities in the world. The easiest place for anyone to hide was in a crowd. This was exactly what one hooded young man was doing.
Jin Kazama, son of Jun Kazama and carrier of the devil gene walked through the busy streets passing citizens on their way to school, on their way to work and some that just were out for something to do.
Most would be working at the Mishima Zaibatsu or at the Mishima high school. Two weeks ago, he was the head of the whole Mishima Empire. When he sat in the huge Mishima tower after winning the fifth King of Iron Fist Tournament, he knew he was not meant for a life of running a business so he turned it over to Lee Chaolan a month later who eagerly accepted.
A woman in a hurry bumped into him slightly. She mumbled an apology and continued on with her head bowed low. He had a feeling that he had seen the blonde haired woman before but pushed that thought aside. There were more important things to think about. Like how he had won Tekken once again, yet the only people with the Mishima blood line that lay dead were his great-great grandfather.
He was very relieved that he was dead. His own curse, the devil gene, became easier to control after he had passed on. Now he had no problem controlling it.
Jin sensed someone following him.
He turned of the busy streets and walked down a dark alley coming out into a car par were he broke into a run vaulting over cars until he came to the end of the car park were he turned away into another alley. He kept running up it until he came to a large chain link fence. He thought of just ploughing through it and continuing on but rejected the idea and just jumped as far up it as he could and climbed up and over the rest. It would make to much noise and leave a trail to follow.
When he made it back onto the streets he saw a taxi waiting. He jumped in.
"The harbour." Was all he said to the driver who nodded and drove.
Jin kept looking out the back window of the taxi as it drove towards the destination He would ignore the cab driver when he would try to strike up a conversation. He relaxed slightly as he recognized the surroundings. No one would be able to find him here.
"This is as close as am taking you kid." The driver said when he stopped the taxi just within sight of the harbour. The dock was full with homeless and thugs, normal for this area of Hong Kong. There were a few run down apartments and small buildings littered around. They were usually filled with all sorts of scum.
Jin pushed the money into the drivers hand and got out of the taxi heading towards one of the buildings.
Lee Chaolan sat at the large table in his office on the top floor of the Mishima tower. He was going through some paper work when his secretary buzzed him through the intercom.
"Yes?" He asked tiredly. It was getting late at night and he wanted to go home. He had only been working there a couple of days, not even a week and he was already exhausted from all the work.
"M-Mr Chaolan, there is a v-visitor here to see you." She answered sounding nervous. That put him on edge.
"Who is it?" He asked through the com.
The door exploded open revealing Kazuya Mishima wearing a dark purple business suit. "ME!" He said grinning.
Lee got up from his chair and took a fighting stance. "What do you want?" He asked already knowing the answer but he had to ask.
"Because I sent him." A powerful voice boomed from behind Kazuya. Lee's face fell at the sight. Heihachi walked up behind his son wearing an expensive looking fur coat. "You have our company and we want it back." He told the younger grey haired man.
"No chance." Lee replied crouching into the hitman stance. "Come on." He said motioning them to attack. Kazuya did so as he ran towards the grey man. When he got a couple of feet away he jumped into a fly kick aimed at the crouched man. Lee rolled to the side to avoid it and delivered a swift punch to the back of Kazuya's head.
He never had time to follow up his attack as the large foot of Heihachi slammed into his back sending him tumbling to the ground. He jumped up of the floor and turned round just in time to see Kazuya jumped up from his spinning crouch and deliver a powerful uppercut to his jaw. 'Why does Kazuya always get in my way?' Was his last thought as his world went black.
"Come on Xiao!" Miharu moaned wheezing.
"Just once more. Please?" Xiaoyu pleaded getting into a low crouching stance.
"Fine, but this is the last time!" Her friend replied sliding into a similar stance. She launched herself at her pigtailed friend aiming a sweeping kick at her extended leg. Xiaoyu raised her leg just enough so that the attacking foot passed just under. She launched her self forward of the foot still on the ground and kicked her friend in the chest.
Miharu fell backwards landing on her behind. "Owww!" That hurt!" She whined rubbing her rear.
Xiaoyu giggled. "You're getting slow Miharu." She taunted helping her friend up. "Okay, that will do for today." She said taking pity on her short brown haired companion. They had been training all day long and Miharu had found herself on her back most of the time. Actually, she had been making her friend help her train since the last Tekken tournament ended almost a month ago.
"Let's go shopping!" Xiaoyu exclaimed energetically which earned her a glare from her tired, sore friend.
"Where do you get all your energy?" Miharu asked irritated. She had lots of energy, but with her friend, it was ridiculous. No one should be that lively after six hours of sparring. "And why are you throwing yourself into training so hard anyways?"
"Because!" Xiaoyu said staring at her friend blankly.
"Was it because you lost the last tournament?"
Xiaoyu bit her lip slightly before answering. "Yes." She lied. There was more to it than that but she wasn't going to tell her friend.
Miharu saw right through the lie. "Does it have something to do with a certain spiky haired boy?"
Xiaoyu blushed slightly. "Who do you mean?" She asked trying to feign ignorance and failing miserably.
Miharu frown. "Xiao, get over him! I hate to say it but he's not interested. If he was, do you not think he would have tried to at least contact you by now?"
"He did though!"
"When? Just before the fourth tournament. You don't even know if that was him!" She said growing irritated at her friend's stubbornness. She really didn't want her friend getting involved with any relation to the Mishima's. They were ALL bad news, Jin would be no different.
"It was him! It must have been!" Was the only argument she put forth.
"Fine. Let's forget about it. Let's go shopping." Miharu decided she didn't want to argue with her friend. She would help her get over him, there were plenty of cute guys she knew would love to go out with Xiaoyu.
"Okay, am just going for a shower" Xiaoyu answered turning and heading towards the house with all the speed she could manage. Instead of running towards the house she tripped over a garden stone falling flat on her face.
"Owww! Who they heck put that stupid stone there!"
Miharu laughed. "Aren't martial artist's supposed to be aware of their surroundings?" She mocked ignoring the dirty look shoot her way.
Jin awoke in the middle of the night sweating and panting. He was used to that as nightmares plagued him causing him many sleepless nights. He rose from his bed and headed to the bathroom. Washing his face with cold water he looked at himself in the bath room mirror. He always expected one day to look in there and see a demon version of him staring back.
Jin rested his head against the cold mirror trying to get his chaotic thoughts in order. That's when he heard his front door open quietly. Impossible, he had locked it! He gently eased the bathroom door open just a fraction and looked out into the hall. He saw a cloaked figure stalk past, no doubt heading towards his bedroom.
He opened the door just enough to let himself through and stealthily followed the dark figure to his bed room. He watched as the shrouded person opened his bedroom door and walked inside. The intruder stopped before the bed, no doubt noticing that it was empty.
"Looking for me?" Jin asked from the door way wearing nothing but his jeans.
The figure whirled round surprised, with a knife in hand to face him. He looked at what parts of the face were not covered and realised the intruder was a woman. She pulled her hood back revealing a beautiful woman with blonde hair pulled into a ponytail that looked to be in her twenties.
That's when he recognised the person that had bumped into him earlier that day. Nina, the assassin who had tried to kill him during the third Iron Fist Tournament. He immediately got into a fighting stance.
"What are you doing here?" He asked in a cold voice.
Nina smirked at him. "I'm here to make sure you don't interfere!" Was all she said.
That confused Jin. Interfere in what?
Nana must have noticed Jin's confused look. "In the Next Tekken Tournament." She explained getting into a fighting stance too.
"I'm not entering." Was all he said as he stared at her with those dark eyes. He didn't even know there was another Iron Fist event happening.
"Really? Well that's none of my concern. I'm ordered to kill you." Was all she said as she ripped her cloak from herself, revealing a purple camouflage outfit which showed her abdomen. She rushed at him with the knife in hand.
Jin leaned back in order to avoid the quick slash to his neck. He grabbed to outstretched hand and used a shoulder toss to throw her into the narrow hallway. She quickly rolled onto her feet, barely avoiding the downward heel that was aimed at her head.
She kicked him square in the chest with her left foot and almost immediately jumped and delivered a spinning right heel to his jaw sending him to the ground. She wasn't finished though, as soon as she landed, she kept the spin going while crouching and lashed out with another right heel to his head.
Nina began to confidently walk towards the slowly rising youth. She readied her knife intending to finish off the groggy youth but was surprised as he lashed out with a spinning left kick which connected with the side of her face and slamming her into the wall of the narrow hall. She never had the chance to regain her bearings as he grabbed her by the arm and threw her to the ground.
Jin straddled her legs and reached forward grabbing her wrist with his powerful hands. His face was inches from hers.
"Who sent you?" He hissed. He was fairly sure Lee wouldn't have. He had no need too, Jin had told him the company was his to as he wished. Lee knew he wouldn't interfere with it now.
Nina looked him in the eye to show that she didn't fear him.
beep
They both looked towards the front door.
beep
Nina knew exactly what it was. She pushed the distracted Jin from her and ran the opposite way from the door. She never even paused as she threw herself out of Jin's bedroom window into the scum filled streets of the harbour.
Jin looked shocked. He got up and half jogged to the front door and opened it. There was a small black devise attached to his door with a red numbers counting backwards on it.
"Shit!" He shouted and followed the direction Nina had took, never even stopping as he grabbed his black hooded jacket from a small wooden chair near his bed and dove out the same window the blonde headed assassin did. He winced slightly as his bare feet impacted with the concrete but didn't stop as he got up and ran of into the darkness.
He decided there and then that he would enter the tournament to find out who had tried to take his life.
An attractive woman with short reddish brown hair watched through binoculars as her target ran off into the night. There was always next time. There was over a month till the next tournament. She laughed slightly as she got up and began to walk away.
"I'll get you too, my dear sister!" Anna promised walking off into the night.
