I don't own Capcom, SNK,or the characters ( Wish I did)

" WILL THE FOLLOWING PARTICIPANTS ENTER THE RINGS FOR THEIR MATCHES!" The announcer yelled. " CHUNLI VS KING! MAI VS RAINBOW MIKA! AND ANDY VS MICHAEL MAX!"

The three jumped into their respected rings and stood toe to toe with their opponents. While this happened the others went off to get something to drink. There the boys sat and chatted amongst each other.

" So you guys think we'll be in trouble for this?" Asked Terry.

" Nah. Only if we were skipping to do this, THEN we would be in trouble." Cody responded.

" Man if I ever skipped school and my parents heard about it, they would neuter me!" Ken joked.

" Think of what Master Gouken would've done to me if I skipped school." Ryu added.

" My master Zeku would've tanned my hide." Guy said.

" My parents wouldn't be pleased." Kim stated.

" My ass would've been fried." Kyo said.

Just then Dante walked up to them with a news paper in hand and a depressed look on his face.

" Hey guys." He said.

" What's goin on Dante?" Ken asked. " You look upset."

" Check this out."

He handed Terry the newspaper and he pointed at what made him upset.

" Whoa." Was Terry could say.

" What is it?" Asked Cody.

" A huge wave dismantle New York killing thousands of people." Terry replied.

Everyone turned and looked at him shocked.

" There were no survivors." Dante answered.

There was a brief silence between the teens. Dante sat down and orderd a drink. Couple of moments later, a waiter walked up and handed it to him. As the boys sat there. Chunli, Mai, and Andy walked up and heard the news. They all sat down with their drinks. Ken stood up and held his cup in the air.

" To the fallen." He said.

They all raised their cups in the air and toasted to the heroes. Just then the announcer boomed over the intercom.

" THE NEXT THREE FIGHTS! GUY VS SODOM, CODY VS DAMND, AND KYO KUSANAGI VS IORI YAGAMI!"

The three fighters stood up and got in the rings. Guy crossed his arms and had an uninterested look in his face as Sodom pumped himself up to fight. The huge man stood with his katanas,Matsamune and Murasama at the ready.

" Even till this day Sodom. You never changed." Guy mocked.

" SILENCE! I WON'T LOSE THIS TIME!" Sodom roared.

Guy did an out of character smirk as he got into his stance.

" Just so you know. You're still totally outclassed." He mocked.

Sodom charged towards Guy and their fight began. Damnd ran towards Cody and tried a wild hay maker but Cody moved to the side and smacked Damnd across the face.

" You stupid little shit." Damnd growled.

" Come on dude." Cody said. "You couldn't beat me then and you won't do it now."

Iori and Kyo began walking towards each other. Kyo's right hand was engulfe in flames while Iori's right hand was engulfed in a purple flame.

" So ready to do this?" Asked Kyo with a cocky grin.

" As always." Iori answered with a smirk.

The two fighters charged at each other and clashed. Ryu, Ken, and Chunli were shocked while Terry, Andy,Mai, and Kim just shrugged.

" I didn't know Kyo was that powerful!" Chunli said in awe.

" What?" Asked Mai. " You thought his last name was Kusanagi for nothing?"

" I never heard of the Kusanagi clan." Ryu said. " Who are they?"

" The Kusanagi clan is ancient man." Terry explained. " Back in the 1330s, they used their powers to seal away the powerful Orochi with the help of the Yasakani clan."

" Yasakani... Hey didn't the Yasakani clan change their name to the Yagami?" Asked Ken.

" Right." Answered Andy. " They basically sold their souls to Orochi for power, but at a price. The crimson flames of the Yagami now have a bluish tint. The curse also causes each heir to die young and each mother to die in childbirth."

" And didn't they just say that Iori's last name is Yagami?" Asked Chunli.

Terry, Andy, Kim and Mai all nodded. Ken, and Chunli's minds all thought the same thing.

" Oh shit."

A loud explosion was heard in the ring were Kyo and Iori were battling. Everyone ran over ther and saw Iori with purple flame in his hand standng over Kyo who was on the ground.

" Stand up Kusanagi!" Iori said. " This isn't everything you got!"

Suddenly Kyo kicked Iori's legs from under him and hit him wih a knee to the jaw. Kyo kipped up and he charged towads Iori fists blazing.

" WICKED CHEW!"

Kyo punched Iori in the gut wih a flaming spark knocking him out of the ring.

" THE WINNER KYO KUSANAGI!"

Iori looked up in the ring and saw the announcer hold up Kyo's hand in victory. He was a little p. , but then he scoffed.

" Some other time Kusanagi" He thought to himself as he disapeared through the crowd, while Terry got in the ring to help Kyo to his feet.

" Short and sweet I guess." Terry said with a laugh.

In the second ring Damnd pushed Cody into a corner with a kick to the gut. He then roll into a ball and flew towards Cody...something Cody was counting on. Cody brought his fist foward and did one of his signature moves.

" CRIMINAL UPPER!"

Cody unleashed a tornado from his uppercut that connected with Damnd and sent him flying in the air and crashing into the ground. Cody took a breather and sighed as the announcer called Cody the victor of the fight. Meanwhile Guy just finished his fight with Sodom.

" See?" Guy taunted as he pushed up his bangs. " Told you, you were totally out classed."

As the three went back to the group. The announcer made a shocking announcement.

" THE NEXT BATTLE WILL BE A TAG TEAM BATTLE!" He cried. " IN RING ONE! RYU TAKASHI WILL TEAM WITH JOHNATHAN TALBAIN TO FACE WILLIAM GUILE AND ALEX LOMBARDI!"

Everyone was shocked.

" This is different." Guile said. " You ready Alex?"

Alex rolled his arms around.

" Oh yea son." He said.

On the other side of the ring, Ryu tightened his headband and pulled his gloves over his hands while Talbain threw off his jacket and cracked his knuckles.

" You ready John?" Ryu asked.

" Oh you bet mate." Talbain replied. " Gotta get changed real quick."

With a loud howl, Talbain underwent a transformation. His ears shifted from the side of his head to the top. Fur grew all over his body and a tail began to sprout from his lower back. His teeth became long and sharp while his nose and mouth began to stretch out. His tanktop and boots ripped leaving him bare chested and barefooted. He turned and looked at Ryu and smiled.

" Alright mate." He growled. " Let's get 'em. You take the wrestler, and I'll handle the army boy."

Ryu and Talbain charged towards their opponents and the fight began. Meanwhile, the others watched while this happened. Unbeknownst to them, Mayweather and Tomko snuck behind them and did a sneak attack on Ken with a strong haymaker. Ken stumbled back and got into a stance as he tried to clear the cobwebs from his head. Just as he did this, everyone turned around and got into their fight stances. But Terry held them back.

" I think just me and Masters can handle these two goofballs." He said with a smile. Ken nodded in agreement.

" Mayweather you take blondie. I'll get the foundling." Tomko instructed.

Ken and Terry looked at each other and shrugged.

" I guess we know who we're facing." Terry said with a sly smile.

" I like it better this way." Ken said with the same smile etched on his face.

Mayweather charged towards Terry and tried a wild punch but Terry moved to the side and counted with a sweep knocking Mayweather off his feet. Tomko did a couple of punches at Ken but the latter ducked and parried every attack. Suddenly Ken began to smile.

" The hell is so funny Masters?" Asked Tomko.

Just as he said this, Ken delivered a massive uppercut to Tomko's chin and lifted him in the air.

" SHORYUKEN!"

Tomko flew in the air and landed on a table. Just as he was getting up, Dante pointed Ebony in his face.

" Don't do that." He said with a cocky smile.

Tomko knew Dante wasn't kidding, so he just sat as Terry beat Mayweather until he backed up in a daze. Terry ran towards him and did a jumping spin kick.

" CRACK SHOT!"

Terry connected and hit Mayweather in the chin and sent him sliding across the ground and stopped next to Tomko. Dante pulled out Ivory and pointed it at Mayweather.

" Now if you two girls are done, I suggest you leave before you get hurt for real." Dante warned.

As he said this, Chunli, Mai, Andy,Cody,Kyo, and Guy surrounded them. Tomko looked to Mayweather and they both got up and left. But not before Tomko left Ken a warning.

" You caused me to lose my job Masters." Tomko told him. " I'll pay you back for that."

" What did I even do to you to make you hate me from the beginning?" Ken asked.

Tomko gave Ken a sly smile.

" You were born." He said.

Ken simply shook his head and smiled back.

" Then I guess I'll stay alive since I know that it pisses you off with every breath I take." He said with a middle finger.

Tomko sneered at Ken and walked away with Mayweather behind him. Everyone turned and looked at Ken.

" Ken, something tells me he's gonna try something again." Andy said. " And it's gonna be lethal."

" Yea." Dante agreed. " Something is off about Tomko now."

" Oh yea." Ken said. " I hate to have to fight him again."

BACK IN THE RING

Through the whole commotion, the two teams were still going at it. Ryu ducked under a grab from Alex and countered with an uppercut. Alex rolled with it and leapt into the air and grabbed Ryu by the head and delivered multiple headbutts that left Ryu in a daze.

" What the hell did you hit me with?" Ryu asked while clearing the cobwebs.

" You liked that?" Alex asked while rolling his arm around. " I call that my stun gun headbutt. Why? Well you felt the effects of it."

" Yes that was an amazing move." Ryu said. " But I got something that is as lethal."

" What is that?" Asked Alex.

Just as he said that, Ryu made his move.

" BLADE KICK!"

Ryu kicked Alex so hard he bounced off a turnbuckle and back to Ryu who jumped right in the air with him.

" SHINKU SENPU!"

" Ryu kicked Alex multiple times while spinning violently in the air. Alex crashed into the ground hard.

" Had enough?" Ryu asked. " Is that everything you got?"

Alex stood up wiping his mouth.

" Nah!" He said laughing. " The fun just starting! Get ready!"

Ryu smiled and got into his stance. Alex did the same. Meanwhile Talbain and Guile fought fiercely. Talbain spring boarded himself off the top turnbuckle and leapt high in the air and descended towards Guile. As he did this, Guile crouched down and countered as Talbain got to him.

" FLASH KICK!"

" WOLF CANNON!"

The two attacks collided and the two were both knocked out the ring. Since it was a double ring out, Ryu and Alex were allowed to continue their fight. Alex jumped into the air and attacked with his cross chop move. Ryu blocked it but Alex didn't stop there. As soon as Ryu blocked Alex swept Ryu's feet from under him and then jumped in the air again and hit a massive stomp. Ryu's eyes nearly popped out his head from the force of the blow. Alex stood back and rolled his arms around but he paid for that mistake as Ryu swept Alex's legs from under him. As Alex fell, Ryu kipped up and hit Alex with a strong uppercut to the chin.

"SHORYUKEN!"

Alex's head snapped back as he was thrown from the ring and crashed to the ground. He was defeated.

" ALEX HAS BEEN KNOCKED OUT THE RING! THE WINNER'S ARE TALBAIN AND RYU!" The crowd stood on their feet and applauded the four combatants. Ryu jumped out the ring and helped up Alex.

" Damn." Alex said while rubbing his chin. " I fought both you and Ken. You two are something else."

" You yourself Alex are an amazing opponent." Ryu remarked. " I would be honored to fight you again sometime."

Alex smiled and shook Ryu's hand.

" Its a promise." Alex told him. " But you better watch out. I'll be even stronger than now."

On the other sides of the ring. Julia helped Guile to his feet while Felicia helped Talbain to his.

" I can't believe it." Guile said. " I never knew Darkstalkers were so strong."

Talbain laughed at this as he reverted back to his human form.

" You wouldn't believe me if I said this." He told Guile. " But my father had me learn Martial Arts just by watching Bruce Lee movies. He couldn't find a school that taught Jeet Kune Do so he said it was the only way. Luckily, he scraped up enough money to send me to Hong Kong to learn the right way."

As everyone laughed the Announcer got in the ring and did the introductions for the next fight.

" THIS IS THE LAST MATCH FOR THIS ROUND!" He said. " TO MY LEFT WILL LEIN NEVILLE AND MAKOTO AKABARI PLEASE ENTER THE RING!"

The two females got in the ring. Lien adjusted her self while Makoto just scratched her head.

" AND TO MY RIGHT, WILL TERRY BOGARD AND KEN MASTERS PLEASE ENTER!"

The two males got in and got ready to fight.

" This is gonna suck." Ken said groaning.

" Why?" Asked Terry.

" Well because even though they are fighters, I have a strict policy to never harm a woman."

Suddenly Makoto's head grew ten times larger and her face became red with anger.

" YOU SEXIST! She yelled at Ken.

A huge ball of sweat appeared on the back of Ken's head as she said this.

" How am I a sexist?" He asked.

Makoto's head then went back to normal.

" I maybe a girl, but I can still kick your ass!" She said.

Ken just sighed and dropped his shoulders.

" I don't have a choice do I?" He said.

" I don't think so man." Terry replied with the same attitude. " I don't like fighting girls either but they will be pissed if we don't fight."

The two guys just cringed. But as they did this, the two girls launched their attacks.
