It wasn't always about the Ginova family in Metal Town.

What you'd find among the steel plated streets would be Metal Yakuza, the family being on top. The Metal Yakuza families owning the streets.

The ones on top of it all? The Steel Dragons, hard as the metal and twice as tough in battle. They owned the streets and no one wanted to mess with them.

It wasn't until Cindrey rose to power that she started wiping out all the Metal Yakuza one gang at a time. By the time she was finished, she wiped out all of em, most of them joining Cindrey to escape her wrath. Yakuza seemed like an empty dream in Metal Town now…

Commotion was in the streets as someone was running through the streets and back alleys of Metal Town after a massive wrecking was done on one of the Ginova out posts. Taking cover in one dark Alley, he stood still as Thugs zipped by him in frenzy.

"Alright…" a young voice said stepping out of the shadows.

This boy was about in his teens with short hair covered by a hat that said 'Dragon' on it. He wore a silver colored shirt with an jacket that was gray and had the Steel Dragon's Mark on the back. He wore a mask soft in appearance to cover his face except his eyes, which were blue, and had sneakers on, he also hat black gloves that covered his hands and his left eye was a bit scarred and red.

"Heh… those Ginovan idiots. One Revelation of Ty Takahashi and they come chasing after me." He joked. "Im wasnt one for dirty deeds… but I can be pretty lethal when i wanna be."

Ty Takahashi

Former Steel Dragon Yakuza Thug

"And that makes one more outpost vandalized with creativity for the list. But I cant be doing this forever. I need to take out Cindrey somehow. Im the only survivor of the Steel Dragons. I cant go down easy." Ty said. "Im not dumb enough to know i cant take em on alone though. Hmm… what should I…?"

"There you are, you little bastard." a thug in a suit with a fedora said as tons of them came out.

"Aw, gimme a break guys. Im just trying to take back the good of metal town, cut me some slack, will ya?" Ty asked.

"The Steel Dragons and all other Yakuza are dead, buddy. Youre the only one left. Join Lady Cindrey and beg for mercy for all the stuff you vandalized, or die quietly." another thug siad.

"Oh, you think im just gonna lay down and let me beat you to death? You got a degree in stupid if you think im gonna go with those options." Ty said with a wisecrack.

"Your funeral kid. Get em!" a thug said as they charged him. Ty knew martial arts, so he defended himself the best he could. As he moved, he felt something well up inside him, as all of a sudden he bursted with red and white steam.

"What the hell…?!" a thug said.

Ty suddenly had a flash, as if he got a revelation instantly.

"What is this…?" he asked as something flashed into his mind.

A younger Kazuma Kiryu phased into view as the camera zoomed up on him cracking his knuckles and entering a unique fighting pose. With a determined look in his eye at once second, he then started doing some jabs in split second after that, before blasting into his signature Yakuza kick in black and white art. It phased back as he did some more kicks before the sequence ended, etching itself into Ty's Mind.

It flashed back to him as his eyes were immediately bursted open. At that moment, he realized he was one of them. An Enhanced with the styles of the Dragon of Dojima, Kazuma Kiryu.

"Heh. Fitting because were both dragons…" Ty said.

"What the hell are you talkin about? Die already!" a thug said throwing a punch as Ty saw it coming. Instincts kicking in, he blocked it with one hand and countered by judo flipping him over.

"Oh, i like this!" Ty said.

Ginova Thugs

(Cue -Yakuza 0 - Receive You ~Tech Trance Arrange~ [Awakening Mix])

"I dunno what you just did, but youre going down!" A thug siad.

"No, you guys are goin down, is what's gonna happen." Ty said getting into his own mixed stance with white heat steam pouring off him.

He engaged the thugs with precision blows and kicks, damaging the goons. On occasion, he would sometimes grab one and pull of a backbreaker. He could also use Kiryu's Heat actions, ranging from blasting the thugs with powerful blows or crushing their skulls with both fists, then delivering a knee to the face, knocking them out and collecting their cash.

"Havin' fun yet?!" Ty taunted with some happiness and relaxed himself.

"You little…!" the last remaining thug tried to hit hem before he was countered by Ty, and received a Yakuza Kick to the groin, knocking him unconscious and sending him back onto the ground.

(end song)

"Whew… that was kinda fun." Ty said. "Man, this power is cool but, i dont think i can be a one man army, i need some sort of team, like a strike force, like those guys int he papers. Its a huge world out there, I think i can find some guys who are like me, in the darkness but do the right thing."

He headed out and snuck to the Trans-World Gate.

"I'll be back for ya Metal Town, just as soon as I get some freinds to set you free." Ty said as if he was talking to someone. "Heh, this is gonna be fun."

He jumped into the gate and began his adventure.
