A Feather Beside A Jaguar Mask

Chapter 1: Start

After The King of Iron Fist Tournament 5...

"King's back!!" the kids shouted with joy, as King entered the door at the orphanage. The kids rushed right over, surrounding him. As King would like to give candy to the children, read to them and making them happy, he was far too busy. The kids gave an "aww", and he had to explain. First thing's first, new kids. Muffie, King's co-manager, was assigned to look after the orphanage and the kids. Unfortunately, Muffie likes King, King knows it, and she isn't his type.

"Hey Muffie!" King said.

"Oh! Heeeeyyy...boss!" Muffie replied, and giggled afterwards.

"Any new kids?"

"No swee... I mean, boss! Well, there is this new 13 year old orphan named Johnny Orlando Stewart, who's already here for two months." Muffie answered, with a really big and creepy smile on her face. She showed him Johnny's picture.

"...did anyone tell you that you look fabulous in that jacket?" Muffie giggled. "Yay!" Muffie said, in a perky way, and giggled again.

"...is something wrong with you?" King asked, as he cocked an eyebrow under his mask.

"No, no. There's nothing wrong with me!" Muffie answered, and giggled once more.

"Uh-huh.", King said. "Anyway, did you happen to do your chores? You know, feeding the kids, checking their things, and checking the kids' Tutor Center homework?" King asked.

"Yeah! Of course!" Muffie replied.

"Why don't I just ask Johnny?" King suggested.

Right after that, Johnny came in.

"Hey Johnny! How have you and the other kids been doing?" King asked.

"Oh, I and the others are getting along well, we haven't eaten for two weeks, I'm missing three underwears and we've been getting F's at school. See ya later! Bye!" Johnny said quickly. King slowly shifted his head to Muffie.

"It was a joke! Kids these days." Muffie giggled and gave Johnny an angry look. Johnny just smiled confidently, and rolled his eyes at her.

"Okay, well, you better go home." King said.

Another giggle from Muffie. "Okay."

After Muffie left, King entered the kids' room. As he came in, all of the kids' eyes were on him. They looked angry. Some of their mouths were pointing at the side.

"What? Did I miss something? Did I do something wrong?" King asked.

"Yeah! Hiring Muffie!" Diana answered.

"King, no offense, but why her?" Mark asked.

"What are you guys talking about? Muffie is highly experienced." King replied.

"Experienced? Try BOSSY!" Tina replied back.

"Yeah! I mean, we'd be better off with a monkey with a feather duster. We just want YOU to be the one to manage the orphanage. She's such a bitch!" Johnny continued.

"Hey! Watch your language!" King said.

"It's true!" Diana replied. "Check her out for yourself!

"Okay. This better be true!"

"Oh, trust us, IT IS!"

"She's also abusive AND a compulsive liar. Look at what she did to Patrick!" Rhonda said. Patrick was only 3 years old, and King saw a fresh wound on his forehead.

"When did she do this to him?" King asked.

"Yesterday. She punched him just for interrupting a call. Patrick just wanted to make a sandwich." Johnny answered.

"Was the call important?"

"Unless if her school consider slumber parties as a project, then, no." Johnny replied. King then knew what he had to do.
