In an S.I.N secret base Viper and Kahndora reported to Seth. "Failure saddened me once again." Seth said. "We have haven't came back empty handed sir." Kahndora reported. "Yes, I manage to get some data on Ryu throughout the encounter." Viper reported.
"Interesting…anything else?" Seth replied giving him a disk of Ryu's power.
"We also manage to capture the Interpol agent and her insect friend that has been stopping our operations. They are being transferred to a different S.I.N facility." Kahndora smiled sinisterly.
"Excellent…" Seth complimented. "That woman had posed a problem to us in more ways than one, after the fall of Shadaloo. She will be a valuable test subject for my ultimate project as well as that boy." Seth said.
"Sir if I may ask, what is this ultimate project of yours?" Viper asked.
"You do not need to concern yourself with such a thing, just follow your assignments." Seth ordered.
Kahndora chuckled for a bit. "I'm more interested in that Interpol agent I want to see how much stamina she will have after the extraction." Kahndora hissed. Kahndora held his knife and licked it with anticipation.
Chun Li and Eric were locked up in the same room together while they were held prisoner. "Well that plan didn't work so well." Eric chirped. "Don't worry I planned this myself, that way we can get a view of what S.I.N is really planning with powerful fighters DNA's but I guess in a way I got you involved in this danger. I'm sorry." Chun Li said.
"Nonsense my dear if all the same I like being with you and I'm glad to help you out." Eric assured winking at Chun Li. Chun Li blushed at his response as she was touched by his words of affection.
Eric quickly changed the subject. "So that was Ryu…?" Eric wondered seeing Ryu for the first time. "I always knew he was powerful, but I never thought those two will give him a run for his money." Eric said. He remembered Viper and Kahndora fighting Ryu.
"It's obvious they were trying to awaken his hidden dark to benefit S.I.N and we can't let that happen otherwise its world domination." Chun Li said. "Nothing we can do here being locked up and all." Eric said.
"Or maybe, while your friends attack S.I.N from the outside we'll attack them from the insides." Eric suggested.
Chun Li high fived Eric and smiled. "Now you're speaking my language."
"Hey you two, get over here." An S.I.N agent ordered. He released the two from their holding cell. "You're going to be more test subjects for our little experiment, so don't try anything funny." He announced. The two walked with the S.I.N agent to the main lab.
"We should split up, while you find any data you can on the secret project, I'm going to go explore around." Eric whispered. Chun Li nodded her head in reply.
Eric pressed a button activating a magnet purse pulling all the S.I.N agents guns from them. "What the hell!" they shouted. Chun Li quickly rushed them with her quick multiple kicks knocking out each one of them. She traveled through the base to find S.I.N's mainframe.
"You all are so ugly, that it hurts my eyes." Said a familiar voice as Chun Li hid in the corner. "Wait a sec, I know that voice." Chun Li recognized.
Chun Li came out of hiding as she found Vega inside the S.I.N base as he took out most of the S.I.N agents. Vega sighed in boredom.
"Vega?" Chun Li called out.
Vega turned his back to face Chun Li. "Well, well, well, if it isn't my lovely beauty." Vega greeted.
"Shouldn't you be dead?" Chun Li asked.
"Perhaps, I'm a ghost." He replied.
Chun Li attacked Vega with multiple kicks as he dodged them with breaking a sweat. "I don't care if you are. You're going to regret coming back." Chun Li barked.
"I really miss that lovely face of passion in your eyes." Vega replied defending himself from Chun Li's attacks. "What's a matter slowpoke, don't say you've gotten weak after all these years." Chun Li taunted.
Vega took a distance from Chun Li. "As much as I would enjoy reminiscing about our old encounter. I'm afraid I must be on my way, for I am also as you say, on the clock." Vega teased.
"You're not getting away from me that easily. Eric and I will…" She said.
"Eric…?" Vega replied interrupting Chun Li's. "So that is his name now, your new boyfriend." Vega teased.
"First of all, he's not my boyfriend, second how do you know him?" Chun Li shot back.
Vega chuckled for a bit. "And here I thought that brat was dead long ago."
"What do you mean?" Chun Li asked confused.
"He didn't tell you, well no matter." Vega continued to tease Chun Li.
"Enough games, answer -me!" Chun Li demanded in anger.
"That boy who is with you is one of Bison's in both physical blood and DNA. In other words he is Bison's brat." Vega explained.
"I don't believe you, your lying." Chun Li defended trying not to believe Vega's words.
"Do I? Then why don't you try asking him yourself, since he didn't tell you t everything. I'm sure you'll get a shock out of it." Vega mocked. Vega pushed Chun Li to the side. He smashed a red switch releasing toxic gas. "I'll see you again if you survive. Farewell my beauty." Vega vanished.
"Now realizing fire retardant gas, this gas is toxic all personnel evaluate the facility within the next two minutes." The speaker announced.
As the door slammed shut on Chun Li she was locked inside. Chun Li banged constantly at the door for a way out. "No. I can't get it opened." she chirped. Chun Li looked on S.I.N computer mainframe Vega was hacking as he left it on. She then decided to gather all the data on S.I.N's secret project while uploading the files on her floppy disk. Chun Li tried to cover her breath engulfed by the toxic fumes.
"Now then who are you hiding?" Eric explored around the base looking for C. Viper for payback. A flash image came into Eric's head of Chun Li in danger. "Oh no… Chun Li!" He shouted suddenly changing his motives as he rushed to Chun Li's aid.
He found Chun Li's location at the door was sealed shut. Eric tried to break it open as much as possibly, but nothing had worked. "Damn it, stupid door, open already." He barked continuing to bash the door. He then focused his energy and blew the door down as he discovered Chun Li collapsed from the toxin. "We've got to get out of here." He felt a purse within her as he carried her out of the facility.
Outside the facility Eric watched the place crumbled as Chun had already awakened by his side. "Hey, are you okay?" he asked lifting her up. "Yeah, I will be." She replied breathing slowly.
"He is Bison's brat." Vega echoed in Chun Li's head. Chun Li still doubted Vega's words towards Eric because of his sinister nature.
"What's our next plan?" Eric asked.
"We will have to get to the nearest hotel from here and wait for further Intel. Come on." Chun Li said.
"I won't believe it." Chun thought with thoughts of Vega's words.
That night the two of them traveled through the wilderness for the nearest town for shelter. "Hey there is a place." Eric pointed to a hotel spot.
"Well, wherever you two have been must have not been so pleasant." The hotel manager said.
"We want one room with a bath and two beds." She ordered.
"Guess it will be quite a night for you love birds." The manager teased.
"Just give me the key and no wise cracks please." Chun Li grumbled.
"Eric." Chun Li called.
"Yes." He answered.
"You wouldn't lie of keep things from me would you?" she asked.
"Not at all what are you saying?" he asked curiously and confused.
"Inside the place I had a run in with Vega. He said some things to me and I want to confirm if it's really true of not."Chun said suspiciously. "Did you tell me everything the other day, or was that just half of what you told me?" she asked. "Come on Chun Li you're really going to believe that psychopath over me? Eric assured.
"Answer me seriously!" Chun Li demanded.
"I've got nothing to hide." Eric said.
"You're lying I know it. You turn your eyes the other direction when you lie. My father taught me that trick." She said.
"Come on its pretty obvious he's got under your skin and you were just surprised. There is no need to take him seriously." Eric said trying to erase the subject matter.
Chun Li's suspicion nature grew as well as her patients. "Stop lying to me! I can see it all over your face what have you got to hide Eric? What are you not telling me? Do you not trust me enough to tell or maybe it was foolish of me to trust you? How do I know you're not with Shadaloo?" Chun Li snapped.
Eric held his head down for a brief moment and bit his lip on Chun Li's questions. He turned around ashamed facing Chun Li. "It's not like I was keeping it from you. I just… didn't know how to tell you. The truth is…Bison is my biological father because, he raped my mother." Eric confessed.
Chun Li stood paralyzed with shock with her eyes wide open and one hand covering her mouth.
