Love & War: The Black Moons
Chapter 13: The Four Kings
Chris, Sonya and the girls arrived in New York to assess the damage.
"My god, New York has fallen," said Sonya.
Raiden suddenly appears alongside Liu Kang and Kung Lao.
"Raiden!"
"It seems New York has fallen victim. Chris, I discovered potential allies that may help you as to finding out who is behind this."
Chris thought immediately. "M. Bison..."
Sonya looked at him. "What?"
"Bison! I bet he's the one behind this."
"Who's this M. Bison?" asked Tanya.
Raiden explained, "Master Bison is a dictator who runs an organization known as Shadaloo. Apparently, someone is working for him behind the scenes. He possesses an extraordinary power called Psycho Power. I believe he may pose a more dangerous threat to Earthrealm."
"New York is already wiped out," said Chris. "And who knows where else?"
"This is why I need all of you to come with me. I found potential allies that can help us."
Before they left, Raiden notices Samus.
"Samus Aran. I assume you came to help us."
"Yes, Lord Raiden. I discovered these satellites and came to investigate."
"Come with us."
Later, the Shadaloo soldiers were also surveying the damage. A huge traffic accident resulted of the sudden electromagnetic pulse that knocked out power, which includes traffic lights, along with some casualties. At the lobby of a nearby bank, F.A.N.G is dancing around happily. Next to him are Balrog and Vega at the open vault.
"(Laughs evilly) The AS demonstration was a complete success!"
"So? What about the other places?" asked Balrog. "Why the hell didn't the other Moons go off?"
F.A.N.G looks at Balrog, dejected of his comment.
"Did I ever tell you that you have the attention span of a 5-year-old? I already told you that the other control keys were stolen by that programmer! But I took quick actions to recover one of them. I've destroyed all this city's electrical functions. Quite an accomplishment, I might say." He looks at both Balrog and Vega. "Speaking of which, what were you two doing all this time I was working so hard?"
"Ha," Vega was not impressed. "Look's who's talking. Did you forget that you were in charge of this plan? And it was you that let that programmer steal the control key. I would say that's a huge disgrace! It's obvious who should take the blame for this. Besides..."
F.A.N.G has heard enough.
"Tread cautiously when you dare say such insolent things to me! I successfully enacted "Operation C.H.A.I.N.S"! And the fact that the programmer got away easily is because you two are incompetent!"
Before Balrog and Vega went in to attack, a portal opened and out comes M. Bison.
"My generals are all killing each other. This is delicious entertainment!"
"Oh! It seems Lord Bison's Psycho Power is already becoming more powerful! This proves the power of my PSA weapon. If Operation C.H.A.I.N.S is successful, Lord Bison will be all powerful and invincible."
"No need to discuss the obvious. Now tell me the current status of the other device."
"Over here!"
Two Shadaloo soldiers step forward.
F.A.N.G explains, "These two soldiers were able to draw strength from your Psycho Power. Until we get all the keys, we will continue to spread fear and despair, so we can add more strength to you, my Lord."
"Just a couple of puppets," Balrog scoffs dismissively.
F.A.N.G tries to attack but Balrog moved out of the way.
"What the hell are you doing?"
"Oh, don't be like that. Now you two, why don't you test them at least once? Certainly two powerful warriors such as yourselves are not frightened by "puppets" like them?
"How silly," Vega said. "You think you can fool me?"
F.A.N.G spins around and gets behind the enhanced soldiers.
"You are already fools."
"Bastard!"
They both fight the soldiers. Although the soldiers were enhanced by Bison's Psycho Power, they were no match for Balrog and Vega.
"You piece of crap!" Balrog yelled. "Now it's your turn!"
Before they fight, they hear footsteps. It is Guile and Chun Li. M. Bison smirked evilly.
"Bison!" Chun Li charged forward.
"No, wait!" Guile tried to stop her. F.A.N.G stepped up to deal with the Interpol agent, but Bison dropped down and burst out his Psycho Power.
"You we're foolish to come here, girl."
As they battle, Chun Li's thirst for revenge clouded her judgment. She fails to realize that Bison is even more powerful than before. He dominates the battle and defeats her, blasting her away with Psycho Power.
"Chun Li!" Guile came to her aid.
"I'll be your opponent," said Vega.
Although Guile has years of military experience, it did not help him against Vega's agility and claw techniques. The battle, however, ended in a stalemate when Bison came between Vega and Guile to take out Chun Li.
"Now I will finish you!" He charges his fist with Psycho Power. Chun Li finds herself on the verge of death.
"I don't think so!"
It was Cammy, an agent of Delta Red, led by Chris, Tanya, and Samus. The others remained outside. Cammy pushed Chun Li out of the way.
"Cammy!"
With Guile, Cammy picks up Chun Li and makes a hasty retreat.
"I'll never let you leave..." F.A.N.G gets punches in the face by Tanya, who's not at all impressed with his appearance.
"You disgust me!"
