"Stop thieves…!" a store owner shouted out as she tried to chase a couple of robbers. Chun Li went in pursuit of the criminals with the stolen merchandise. "Come one we got to get outta here before that crazy cop woman shows up." The criminals rushed.
"Who are you calling crazy?" Chun Li leaped on top of the criminals. "You god damn bitch." The other criminals were about to pull out their guns; however Chun Li quick reflexes put the criminals thugs down. "Looks like you guys are going away for a long time." Chun Li said."I see your still working hard." Po Lin complimented appearing in front of Chun Li. "Po Lin…" Chun Li rushed over to greet her old friend and partner. "It's been a while… partner." She said. The two of them gave each other a welcome hug.
"What have you been doing lately?" Chun Li asked having coffee with her old friend at a cafe. "I've been working at random shops here and there since my early retirement from the force." Po Lin replied drinking her coffee. "By the way…I'm sorry for your father's death. I can understand why your obsession with Shadaloo must keep you busy. I know how it feels to lose someone special to you." Po Lin said.
"It's alright Po Lin don't worry about in the least…" Chun Li held her head down for a brief second sadden by her father's death. "Guess I should have never brought it up. I'm sorry." Po Lin replied. "I'm serious Po Lin don't worry about it." Chun Li reassured with a smile. Po Lin smiled back at Chun Li in relief.
"Hey remember back at the academy we used to spare together in training, but you always kicked my butt a lot." Po Lin remembered changing the subject. "Hey you were pretty good yourself." Chun Li said. The two laughed together reminiscing on old times.
"We should hang out more often and catch up on old times more." Po Lin offered. The two laughed together reminiscing of old times.
"Give me back my purse." A woman called out to a thief. Chun Li and Po Lin were about to go after the thief, but somebody had already stopped the thief at his tracks. "You're a little light there to be committing crimes in broad daylight pal." A guy complimented. "You little scumbag…!" the thief shot back. The thief was about to punch out the guy but he countered with throw move. "Man, and here I thought you were tougher than this. What a letdown? You just as threatening s a cat just when I thought I could find some leads." the guy complained rubbing the back of his head. The guy was revealed as a charming Japanese -American carefree young adult with long brown hair to his neck and a sincere smile."
"Well got to run, can't stay here any longer." The guy ran out of sight. "Hey you wait up." Chun Li called out chasing after the mysteries guy. "Sorry dear, but I'm really in a hurry talk to you soon." He replied. "I said… wait up." Chun Li called still pursuing the guy. "And I said I have things to go right now, so I'll talk to you later." The guy replied.
The guy leaped onto the walls of an ally way to the roof to escape from Chun Li. Chun tailed him by running on the walls and leaping to an edge to the roof. "Hope this works well." Chun Li had sighted the guy as she leaped for a tackle on them causing them roll out.
The guy rose back on his fight Chun Li made the first move as he blocked her attack. The two of them began fight as Chun Li released a barrage of kicks at the guy; however, he blocked most of them, but one of the kicks got him. "Man…that kick of yours packs quite a punch." He said. Chun Li went for another kick, but he caught her leg and tossed her. He leaped up for a counter attack. The two of them took their distance from fighting for a moment.
"By the looks of it…I'd say you're not one of them." He said. "I could say the same for you." Chun Li replied. "I should have known…your way too beautiful to be one of those thugs." He complimented. "Hitting on me isn't going to make me consider letting you go…not until you tell me who you are." Chun Li said.
"Its common curtsies to give your own name before asking some else's even to a pretty lady like yourself." he said. "Fine…I'm Chun Li, an agent of Interpol. Now tell me who you are." Chun Li introduced.
"Man…you sure are persistent, but I guess it's only fitting I tell you who I am. The name's…Eric, at your service my dear." Eric induced himself. "I must say, you're just as the criminals described, very lovely, but I don't believe the crazy part." He complimented. Chun Li stood there blushing after his sweet compliments to her. Chun Li shook her head hard trying to erase trying to come back to reality. "Did you confuse me for somebody else?" Kaien asked.
"Yes I did…I'm so sorry about that, I overacted and attacked you." Chun Li apologized. "Hey it's all right…and I got a chance to fight you myself, since I heard about your recent victories in the Street fighting tournament." Eric said. Eric approached Chun Li closely. "You know you're very cute when you're angry." Eric complimented.
"Chun Li…hey...there you are." Po Lin called out. Po Lin then caught up to Chun Li catching her breath first. "You ran ahead of me…I can't keep up with your speed you know." Po Lin said. "Sorry…I chased down some guy, because I assume he was an enemy, but I was mistaken. He is right…here." Chun Li paused as she noticed Eric was gone.
"Where is that guy now?" Po Lin asked. "I suppose he was there moments ago…" Chun Li guessed. "Man…I always disliked shady people for some reason." Chun Li said. "Still I gotta admit he was quite handsome." Po Lin suggested. "He wasn't that bad, but I would not say handsome." Chun Li replied.
"Chun Li…huh, I like you already." Eric said looking down at Chun Li and Po Lin.
"Well you gotta admit…pretty charming to have a guy hit on you like that. I'm kinda jealous." Po Lin said. Chun Li stood there dumbfounded blushing. "Hey why are you red… all of a sudden?" Po Lin checked. The two girls left the scene where Eric was last spotted. "In the meantime…we should look up some information about him; he did say something about leads." Chun Li said.
Po Lin accesses the data base computer on information on Eric. "Ah…here we go. His real name is Eric Kawasaki; he is half Japanese and half American. He was orphaned at birth, and he's the same age as you. He also had some rough encounters with Shadaloo, but nothing illegal. From what it says a temple monk took him in as a child and raised him." Po Lin reported.
"Well…guess his hang out places usually includes restaurants, night clubs, bakeries, bars, fighting tournaments…hey speaking of which, there's Street fighting tournament being held south from here. If where lucky we should be able to find him from there." Po Lin said. "If he has some information on Shadaloo then he could help me." Chun Li said.
"Looks like our new challenger has step forward in the ring, hopefully, he could put up a fight against our raining champion." The announcer announced. Eric stepped into the Street fighting ring ready to face a big muscular guy. Chun Li and Po Lin watched Eric's match from the audience. "This won't take long." The big guy said. "I'm already bored here; let's make this quick big guy." Eric yawned. "When you wake up you'll already be in a hospital bed little man. The big threaten cracking his knuckles. Eric signed in boredom.
"You dare to mock me by signing." The big guy swung his left hock at Eric, but he dodged his attack easily. "Come on…I'm just getting started." The big guy swung random punches at Eric, but he avoided them without a sweat. "Are you ever going to get serious yet?" Eric asked.
The big guy did an uppercut on Eric knocking him up in the air. "Your mine now little man." He was about to punch him, but Eric had performed a counter attack hitting the guy with the ball of his foot. Eric then bounced off the ropes and launched for an elbow attack to the big muscular guy's rip cage. The big guy was then down for the count.
"And he is down for the count, who would have through he would be beaten so easily by our new challenger. Happy on his victory Eric waved to the audience. "He took that guy out in no time." Po Lin said. "Humph…that's child's play." Chun said.
"Maybe I should see what he got for real rather than a misunderstanding." Chun Li said taking off her jacket entering the ring to fight Eric. "Hey tough guy…let me see what you got for real. No holding back." Chun Li challenged. "Well, well, it's very good to see you again Chun Li, and don't you look absolutely lovely today just like in the tournament." He complimented. Chun Li has gotten into her fighting stance as Eric started to recognize it. "That fighting style… no doubt about you were trained by Gen." he figured. The two got into their stance awaiting the first move.
