Chun Li was alone in the Psycho Drive lab, still lying on the floor strapped to the chair. She was sniffling pitifully, and tears were running down her face. Chun Li began to think about Fei Long once again, feeling very repentant about her reaction. She was hoping he was alright.

What the hell was wrong with me? Why did I do this alone? Fei Long, please….forgive me….I did not mean to hurt you. Please, Fei Long. I'm so sorry….I need you. I need you….

Hours after contacting INTERPOL and concluding their plans for the invasion, Fei Long and Dan reach a strange valley, many miles away from Fei Long's home. They spot a grayish, sturdy-looking structure in the center.

Dan points towards the structure. "I believe that's it, Fei…."

Fei Long turns from Dan to face the distant base. "Yeah, it looks like a 'Shadaloo base'."

It was late in the evening. A light wind was causing some dirt and old leaves to drift across the valley. The sun was setting, giving a broad view of a lustful golden sky surrounded with a dusky violet. Standing from the elevated edge of the dusty, barren valley, it was quite an extraordinary view. Fei Long unintentionally began to observe and appreciate such beautiful scenery, in case it was his last. His expression defined awe and reverence, while Dan was looking at him with confusion.

"Fei, are you alright? You've been acting in ways I've never seen you act before…."

Fei Long was unaware of Dan speaking to him. He was thinking about how Chun Li would feel if he died for her.

Dan continues. "Uh, Fei….You're scaring your friend, Fei."

Fei Long closes his eyes and turns away. "Sorry Dan, it's just that….never mind."

"Yeah, I think we should go now."

I don't think you would understand, Dan, Fei Long thought to himself.

Fei Long and Dan were on their way to the base, carefully moving their way down towards the center of the valley.

Eventually, Fei Long and Dan were quite close to the base, realizing there were no guards outside surrounding it. Fei Long felt his heart pound in his chest, heavier and heavier, as he approaches the base. Dan didn't seem afraid at all; Fei Long believed his actions show Dan was pompous and overconfident. The two decided to look for an inconspicuous way to enter, trying to avoid as many soldiers as possible. They've circled the base, searching for the best entrance. Having a hard time, Fei Long concludes with a final decision.

"I'll improvise. You just follow me, Dan," said Fei Long, a little fearful. "All I want to do is get in, find Chun Li, and get out as quickly as possible, avoiding any fights."

Dan agrees. "Alright, how hard can that be?"

Fei Long turns back to Dan and responds. "Don't be overconfident Dan. This is Shadaloo's main base. Who knows how many soldiers and surveillance are in this massive base?"

"Think positive, Fei," says Dan.

Fei Long shakes his head, agreeing to Dan's statement. "Alright….but you be a little more realistic, too."

Fei Long takes a long look at the structure, still trying to find a safe way to enter. Finally, he spots a large vent ear the rooftop. "There's an air vent up there. Maybe we can crawl through. Follow me."

Fei Long and Dan approached one of the walls, and jumped on the top. Eventually, they reach the vent. Fei Long tore the vent guard off, and listened for any sounds. He lies the guard down, and turns to Dan with a very serious face.

"Dan, are you sure you want to do this with me?"

Dan looked at Fei Long silently for a moment, hesitating. Finally, he decides he would be by Fei Long's side. "Yes, Fei Long. I am one hundred percent positive. I'm your friend, so I'm doing this for you, and for your ladylove…."

Fei Long extends his hand towards Dan. "Thanks, Dan…." Dan decides to shake his hand firmly, and Fei Long cuffs his other hand on Dan's, accepting the handshake. Fei Long turns around and crawls into the vent and Dan follows him.

Meanwhile, Fei Long finds a fairly wide opening at the bottom side of the vent. There was light from the room they were over, shining through the vent guard. Fei Long approaches it and looks down to see if any soldiers were around. For a few moments, he sees soldiers walking past every once in a while, waiting to finally get out of the vent. Eventually, Fei Long did not see or hear any more soldiers.

Fei Long turns back to Dan. "I'm going to see if anyone is around." He pries the vent guard off quietly, and slowly places his head out to see if the area was clear. There was no activity, and he didn't hear anyone approaching. Fei Long lifted his head back into the vent to turn around and jump down.

He turns back to Dan. "I'll let you know when to come down."

Dan shakes his head, and Fei Long slips down the opening, landing gently. Fei Long heard two soldiers approaching, and was hurriedly searching for a place to hide. He finds a stack of metal crates nearby, and hides behind them. The soldiers were having a conversation while walking through the passage, not noticing Fei Long. The conversation grew audible, then faded as they were walking away.

"….So I told him I was gonna buy the twin turbo MR instead of the base model, but he thought liability—…."

Fei Long faces upward towards the vent, seeing Dan's face, and signals Dan to come down. Dan quickly jumps down from the opening and hides next to Fei Long. Fei Long looks at Dan and whispers. "Alright. Let's find Chun Li!"

Fei Long and Dan run from behind the crates, wondering where Chun Li could possibly be. They spot three soldiers standing in front of an elevator holding weapons, and their backs were completely turned. Fei Long and Dan sneak up behind them, ready to attack. The soldiers turned around and notice them, lifting their weapons up. Fei Long stands up and thrusts two darts at the first two soldiers, hitting them in the face, and Dan kicks the weapon out of the third soldier. After the soldiers in sheer pain drop their weapons, Fei Long speedily kicks both of them in the head, knocking them unconscious, while Dan uppercuts and knocks out the remaining soldier.

Dan turns to Fei Long, full of adrenaline. "Where the hell do you get these darts from?!"

"I made them. Just in case we deal with guns, like now," says Fei Long.

Fei Long and Dan enter the elevator, searching for the controls. Eventually, they spot a red lever on a wall next to the door. Without hesitation, Fei Long pulls it down, and the elevator moves downward. After about half-minute, the elevator finally reaches the lower level of the base. Fei Long and Dan exit the elevator, and hear a siren go off. They both look at each other in great fear, knowing they have no choice but to fight off as many potential hostiles as possible. They hear a male voice on the intercom.

"INTRUDER ALERT. WANTED HOSTILES. ALL HANDS TO THE LOWER LEVEL. NO GUNS."

The message repeats twice on the intercom. Fei Long and Dan run through the corridors of the lover level, ready to fight off the soldiers.

Chun Li hears the siren and the voice on the intercom. Her despair had changed to bewilderment.

.Fei Long?
