Upon arriving in the Street Fighter world, the Shining Hope Squad and Brave Adventurers landed in India.

India

"Ah, so this is India huh? Not bad. Although I was expecting to see more." Sonia said.

"You don't suppose that it's because of Bison's plans?" Colette asked.

"I don't think so." David said. "After what happened in Kamurocho, they haven't been active for quite some time."

"Not surprising considering what went down." Korra said.

"Well, that's changed. Bison's back now, and who knows how long time has passed here." Hope said.

"According to the paper, a few months." Gemini said. "But things are looking pretty well here."

"Well, I'm sure we can find someone to help…" Kazuichi said before seeing something unnatural. "...us?"

Next to an ordinary Indian officer was an Indian man. He had brown skin with a white beard and pupiless eyes.

"Wait, that guy.. I think that's Dhalsim." Titanica said.

"How is he floating like that?" Akane said.

"According to sources, he had gone through excessive training in the ways of yoga." Scott said.

"Yoga? That junk? Oh I'm sure a warrior pose is so helpful." Toma said.

"You shouldn't judge anyone by looks…" Hope said.

"Hope?" a familiar voice said as Hope turned around. There behind him was a familiar man in a sleeveless white gi with a red headband on his head, but he was a little different. His hair was black and spiky but a little shorter.

"Its Ryu." Aqua said.

"Been along time." Hope said.

"I don't have time for you today." Ryu said walking past him and approaching Dhalsim. "I need your help." he said getting into a fighting pose.

"Then help you I shall." Dhalsim said floating down and entering a fighting stance.

The two of them entered a quick fight with fists and kicks against one another in a furious collision before Ryu stood as the winner with Dhalsim slowly getting back up.

"Your mind is calm in battle, but...if you continue to suppress the Hado, you will be consumed by it." Dhalsim said.

"Wise words to live by." Lloyd said. "There's nothing more self-destructive than power that can't be controlled."

"So is Ryu fighting the Satsui No Hado..?" Hope said.

"Once again, you need to face the Hado that you are hiding inside." Dhalsim said.

"Face it…?" Ryu asked.

Suddenly, dropping from above was a new shape as he made an impression in the ground. He hand long black and crimson hair that dangled down his face and markings all over him. He also had tribal clothing on.

"What the hell is that?!" Zelos asked.

"Is this… Necalli?" David asked.

"Yep. It most certainly is. I never could forget that form." Lucifer said.

Almost instantly, some sort of liquid was coursing from Necalli as he was growling savagely. It dripped down to the ground, turning what ground was beneath his feet into water as he was slowly walking towards them. "Consume your souls." he growled.

"Watch out, everyone." Jude said. "He's got us in his sights."

Necalli let out a roar.

"Look out!" Dhalsim said teleporting to the cowering officer and defending him. The others went to Ryu's side and faced Necali.

(Cue- Theme of Necalli- Street Fighter V)

"So, this is Necalli?" David asked.

"Be careful, everyone!" Sectonia warned. " I have a feeling that he's no ordinary demon."

"I am the jaws of death. The souls of warriors must return to me!" Necalli said as his hairs went up and turned bright red as he let out a roar.

"Is that… an Overlimit?" Leia asked.

"No… Not exactly." Genis said.

"Greaaaaaah!" Necalli growled as he charged.

"He's coming!" Hope said.

"Look out!" Regal blocked one of Necalli's attacks with his leg.

"Regal!" David took out his pistols and shot Necalli a few times.

But the bullets seemed to just fall out of his body and he was annoyed at being shot.

"Oh… This is not good." David said as Necalli charged at him only to be blocked by Ryu.

"Get out of here! Go!" Ryu said.

"We can't just leave you! We fought side by side two times, remember?" Toma said.

"That doesn't mean anything at this point in time. You need to go." Ryu said before being knocked into a wall by Necalli.

"No way…" David said. "There's no way I'm going to run…" David's palms take up an icy energy. "If I run away, I would never be able to face Ludger and Julius again."

Necalli roared as he charged at them.

"Well...that's something I can agree with!" a voice called out as something was falling from the sky. "Ultimate Color….Uppercut!" the voice shouted as something uppercutted Necalli. It was Jexi.

"Jexi!" Hope said.

"This makes 3 times I've saved your butt. Going for a record?" Jexi asked with a smirk.

"Ugh… i thought you were gonna let me figure out the prophecy alone. Can't stand to leave me in the dust?" Hope said.

"Actually, Titanica called and told me you were coming here and Yang told me she heard your voice on TV. Can't even leave you alone without getting into some kinda trouble." Jexi said.

"Actually, that was my fault. Sorry." Sheena said.

"Either way...I just found something fun to enjoy." Jexi said looking at Necalli.

"Be careful." David tells him.

Necalli charged once again.

Jexi took a deep breath as he concentrated his aura. "Ultimate Color….Breaker!" he shouted knocking Necalli through a wall.

"So strong…" Dhalsim said.

Necali burst out ready for more as Ryu limped over to them. But then it suddenly got dark.

"Whats that…?" Ryu asked.

"Has that moon...always been there?" Sheena asked.

"No. No, it hasn't." David said. "But it can only mean one thing."

"Bison." Hope said.

Necalli looked at Ryu, Jexi, Hope and David. "Ghetpe!" he shouted attacking their minds and showing them a vision of Bison. Necali then started to melt into mud, disappearing.

"Guys! Are you alright?!" Scott asked as the healers worked on recovering them.

"Y-yeah… I think so." David said.

"It's a warning. Something horrible is about to happen to this world." Jexi said.

Dhalsim then floated over to them. "Long ago, the legends foretold about a creature who could devour warrior souls. However, this ancient being would only appear when many warriors were needed, when the world is about to be in a great crisis." Dhalsim said.

"Looks like Leia is not off the mark after all." Ramona said.

"Yeah… I can only imagine what kind of scheme Bison is trying to accomplish now…" David said in a worried tone.

"Jexi.. if you don't mind… I'd like to see if i can take this one with David and his group." Hope said.

"Hope….you can forget that. After what I saw...I'm not leaving." Jexi said.

"Well, looks like we're all in this now, whether we like it or not." Sectonia said.

"Yes! A three way team up!" Toma said.

"But, Bison isn't the only threat here. Satellite photos got pics of this." Jexi said showing photos of the Dark Cruiser.

"That ship… I've seen it somewhere before…" David said, looking at the photos.

"It's the Dark Cruiser, Flux's flagship and home of the Universal Villains." Jexi said.

"I knew it." David let out. "They were the ones that attacked us and forced us to land in the Pokemon world."

"Why did they?" Hope asked.

"We were just finished up with the Land of Canaan, the one place in the universe that can grant a single wish." David said. "Our hunch is that he was upset that we used up that wish before he even got there."

"Canaan...so that's why he stayed quiet these past five months and boosting his image. It's also known to carry a special mineral, one that's often used in genetic experiments. Pinkie saw a whole room filled with clone soldiers inside his ship. He's making a new sort of army of some kind." Jexi said.

"Well, i think we don't know where Shadaloo's base is, but we certainly can go one place." Hope said. "Kanzuki Manor."

"Yeah. Karin has a very extensive network that keeps track of everyone here." Scott said. "By now, she's probably seen what Shadaloo is up to and is calling the world's fiercest fighters to her manor in hopes of stopping them."

"Well, i think we may as well give ourselves an open invitation." Hope said. "How fast can all of us get to Kanzuki Manor?"

"Do you even need to ask, we can get there pretty fast in under an hour." Jexi said.

"Dhalsim, we'll meet you there." Hope said as they went back to their ships before noticing Ryu.

"Hey uh, Ryu… you coming?" Toma said before Ryu ran off.

"Let him go. He's got problems of his own to deal with." Jexi said.

"He's right." Scott said. "He still has that Satsui no Hado thing to worry about."

They took off in their ships to reach Japan.
