Chun Li sits with Fei Long on the sofa, discussing who and what has changed since Fei Long was gone. She starts with Ryu's changes.

"Ryu is almost a totally different person, Fei Long. He's much more friendly, and is willing to greet people with a smile or a handshake. He speaks more often and he gives good advice every once in a while."

"Hmm, that's strange," says Fei Long, intrigued. "Who else, Chun Li?"

"Uh, Ken has a son now, but he hasn't changed a bit, except for his fighting skills. He picked up some bad habits from not training when he has the chance to do so. Still a spoiled, rich boy, but I think he'll be alright."

"I hope so," says Fei Long. "He's was kinda arrogant when I first met him, but then again, I wasn't far from being arrogant myself."

Chun Li turns to Fei Long responds with a smile, remembering Fei Long's sacrifice three years ago. "I beg to differ…."

Fei Long smiles, and his feelings for Chun Li grew even more. Chun Li continues to explain how most of the street fighters have changed.

"Anyways, umm, who else….Guile hasn't changed much, either, but he's getting quite older. I think he's still married. Edmond Honda returned to Japan recently, and continued to teach his disciples. Dhalsim was here, but he retired from fighting. He decided that he wanted to help people mentally and emotionally. He'll probably be back here to help some of the street fighters again. Dhalsim helped Cammy, especially, which is one of the main reasons why she seems different now."

"Yeah, I was kinda wondering," says Fei Long. "What about that walking-meatball Rufus? Is he still around harassing Ken?"

"Yep—still around, hating Ken's guts, even to this day," says Chun Li laughing in between her words. "Him and Ken are still superficial rivals. He's just about the same— still over four-hundred pounds I bet!"

Fei Long's eyes bulge. "He's such a HUGE man!"

Chun Li lets out another laugh. Fei Long couldn't help but laugh with her, knowing he is making her feel very good inside. He has never seen Chun Li laugh like this, EVER, and it made him feel very good, as well.

Fei Long decides to ask about the people who are there. "Okay, who else is actually here?"

Chun Li continues. "Adon, Sagat, Dee Jay, Makato, Dudley, Ibuki, T. Hawk, and that oil creep Hakan are all still here, and haven't changed a bit. Adon and Sagat are still bitter rivals, as well, and Hakan still pours oil on himself!"

Fei Long had a funny expression on his face. "Hakan used to scare the hell out of me, as well!"

Chun Li starts to laugh at Fei Long. Fei Long grins and shakes his head. "It's not funny! Okay, maybe it is…."

"Yeah, don't worry about it! He scares just about everyone," says Chun Li. "He has expanded his business in Japan, successfully, too. Oh yeah, if he scares you again, just perform you're flame kick. He'll back away."

"Oh! I get ya! Fire," says Fei Long. "So who else did I miss out on, Chun Li?"

"Hmm, let's see….Zangief has been in Russia for a few years now, showcasing his power and wrestling skills. He said he was going to be back here next year, as well. Blanka—I mean, Jimmy….haven't seen him since the third street tournament, but I heard that he returned home. I doubt he's coming here."

"Jimmy….That's how Dan, Sakura, and I refer to him….I wish I got to know him a little better," says Fei Long.

"Yeah," says Chun Li.

"Speaking of Sakura, is she here?" Asks Fei Long.

"Most of the time, she's here, occasionally pestering Ryu to death. She's no different, but she's a full, grown adult now and I can't believe it," says Chun Li.

"Geez, I'm beginning to feel old now, Chun Li," says Fei Long.

Chun Li turns to Fei Long. "You're kidding. How do you think I feel?"

"Wait, how old are you now?" Asks Fei Long, a little confused about Chun Li's response.

"I'm going to be thirty-one in a few months," says Chun Li, looking weary.

Fei Long looked surprised. "YOU'RE THIRTY? You're older than me?"

"Uh, yeah! I thought you knew that," says Chun Li. "How old are you?"

"….Twenty-nine."

Chun Li shakes her head. "Twenty-nine, huh?"

"I'll be thirty in a couple of months, as well, but I know one thing," says Fei Long. He then makes eye contact with Chun Li. "Just because you're thirty now, doesn't mean you look older. You still look like you're in you're twenties, at least to me. You look good. In fact, better than ever."

Chun Li smiles, now feeling a little affectionate towards Fei Long. "Thanks, Fei Long. Cammy basically said the same thing, but I didn't believe her."

Fei Long chuckles. "I understand."

"Hey, you look better yourself! Including with that nice long hair of yours," says Chun Li who was still smiling at him. She reaches over to rub Fei Long's hair again.

Fei Long's face brightens, but he didn't notice Chun Li was about to stroke his hair again. "Thank you, Chun Li. I have beeeeen train—"

He stopped talking as Chun Li strokes his hair. Once again, he was subdued, and he was trying to prevent himself from showing a side of himself he has never shown anyone before. Ohhhh, please stop Chun Li! You're making me nervous again, thought Fei Long, although, he's still enjoying himself. He tries his best to regain composure.

Chun Li continues the conversation while rubbing his hair. "So, Fei Long, tell me a little bit about yourself. You've been doing what now?"

Fei Long swallows and lets out a sigh. "I've been doing nothing but fighting on the streets for nearly two years, until Guy ran into me last year. We've been through a lot that year—I don't even know where to start…."

Fei Long looks away, thinking about all the things that has happen to him during those three years.

Chun Li looks at him with sympathy. "Hmm….if it stresses you to tell me, don't worry about it. You can tell me about it whenever."

"Thanks Chun Li," says Fei Long, smiling. "Guy promised me he'd be here soon."

"That's good," says Chun Li.

Fei Long turns to Chun Li. "So, what's going on with you?"

Chun Li smiles and replies, but she was careful with what she was about to say, knowing Fei Long's memory is still affected. "Well, at first, I wanted to stop participating in street tournaments and continue my job as a police officer. At the same time, I was teaching young kids martial arts. I did these things for a while, but I decided to retire from INTERPOL recently. I've adopted some kids as well, but I have Yun and Yang taking care of them now."

Fei Long was surprised to hear Yun and Yang's names. "Yun and Yang? Those two knuckle heads? By the way, how are they doing?"

"They're doing pretty good," says Chun Li. "They were worried about you too, because they heard about what happened three years ago. Ever since you've disappeared, they had my back…."

Fei Long looks downward, feeling a little guilty. Chun Li turns to Fei Long.

"Why did you disappear, Fei Long?"

Fei Long looks away. "I was confused. I couldn't remember anything I did, and I was uncomfortable about crowds of people calling me a hero for something I don't remember doing. So I ran off to avoid people, and I wanted to find the answers with my fists, and that was the truth."

Chun Li scowled. I thought you ran away because you didn't want to grieve me, but you did anyways, thought Chun Li. Then her expression changed into a saddened face. But it wasn't your fault. It was mine….

Chun Li sighs and places her hand on Fei Long's shoulder. "Fei Long, it wasn't your fault that you've lost part of your memory, and nobody here knows about what happened three years ago. There's some explaining I have to do, but I'll tell you later. It's getting pretty late."

Fei Long turns to find a nearby clock on the wall. "Yeah, I guess it is. I really need some rest anyways."

"Same here," says Chun Li. "You wanna spar tomorrow?"

Fei Long's heart sank. He was caught off guard by Chun Li's offer. "Uh, sh-sure, no problem."

Chun Li and Fei Long stand up to exit the den. Fei Long makes his way to leave first. "Oh, Chun Li…."

Chun Li looks at Fei Long, who still had his back turned. "Yes, Fei Long?"

Fei Long turns around to face Chun Li. He looks at her for a moment, and began to say something comforting. "I may have forgotten about many things before I ran off, but I never forgot about you…."

Chun Li nods and looks away, trying to hide her uncontrollable smile. Her expression on the outside was quiet and calm, but on the inside, she was leaping with joy. She was overwhelmed with feelings for Fei Long, but she didn't show it. Fei Long looks at her to see her reaction, but then turns back around to exit.

Chun Li stops him at the last second. She wanted to tell him something, but once again, she was too careful. "Fei Long…."

Fei Long stops and turns around to face Chun Li again. He had a bright expression as he was expecting something he wanted Chun Li to say. "Yes, Chun Li?"

Chun Li couldn't figure out what to say, so she answered quickly with a random topic. "Nice car by the way."

Fei Long looks puzzled. "Huh? Oh! Yeah, that thing. It's a GSR. Very quick little beast. I'm glad I've dropped twenty-nine and a half thousand worth on that."

Chun Li smiles at Fei Long. Since when did you like driving?

Fei Long smiles back. What am I talking about? I feel kinda awkward now.

Fei Long looks at Chun Li one last time before he leaves. "Well, uh, I guess I'll see ya tomorrow, I guess."

Chun Li nods. "Yeah, I guess so…."

Fei Long felt even more awkward. "So uh, yeah, good night, Chun Li…."

"Good night, Fei Long," says Chun Li, feeling the same way.

"Okay, see ya," says Fei Long.

"Okay, see ya," says Chun Li, smiling.

Fei Long finally walks out of the room, slowly. Chun Li stands in the same spot, watching him leave. She began to think to herself.

Something's telling me he might remember again, but he's not showing it enough. I know he'll be all right, and I know things will return to normal for him….I just hope he knows that I really care about him.

Chun Li approaches the doorway and moves her hand towards he light switch. She turns back and observes the den for a moment before turning the lights off to leave.

Fei Long walks into his new room and shuts his light off. He lies in bed while thinking about Chun Li, eventually drifting to sleep.
