1. Introduction

Chasing Tail

Featuring Julia Chang, Michelle Chang, King II, Armor King II, & Craig Marduk

Introduction: Near the end of the sixth King of Iron Fist Tournament, Julia Chang had returned to her home state of Arizona so she could continue her reforestation project. By the time she returned to her homeland, the project hit a snag due to a lack of money. Its turns out the Navajo Nation had exhausted all of funds from Violet Systems which was given as a savings bond by Lee Chaolan. The evergreen trees currently growing around the cliffs and valleys of Apache County will eventually die if they don't get the proper nutrition. Julia had stayed in her childhood home where her mother Michelle was still residing.

One day, Julia happened to be watching TV, until she turned to a wrestling channel. It was a familiar face she recognized, the jaguar man, King II. He had just performed his signature move, The Muscle Buster, on a masked Lucha Libre wrestler. He pins down his opponent, the ref counts 1, 2, 3…it's over. The crowd cheers for King as he is accompanied by Craig Marduk who wore street clothes and raises King's arm in victory. Julia couldn't help but smile. A year ago, Julia tried to stop King from fighting Marduk, but she lost to him. His strength fascinated her very much. Suddenly, her train of thought was interrupted by a cell phone call.

Monica, Julia's old college roommate as a freshman, called her. She urges Julia to travel back to Phoenix so she could meet her at the hospital. Julia informs her mother that she would have to leave home so she could find out what's wrong with Monica. After the long drive to Phoenix, she meets her friend at the emergency waiting room. Turns out it was another woman who happened to be in ICU with several broken bones. Monica holds a mask with feathers around it. She explains her real name is Jolie Casares, a lucha libre wrestler who nicknamed herself Jaycee. Doctors said she would have to retire because of her leg was broken in four different places. Julia reluctantly accepts to portray herself as Jaycee.

After entering a hotel in Phoenix, Julia figured maybe this opportunity wouldn't be such a bad idea. Her project was going to fail unless she made some money really fast, but just how was she going to learn lucha libre?
