A/N: This next chapter where it is more focus between both father and son, Kazuya and Jin where they are remembering Jun Kazama and her transformation as Unknown since her non canonical alter-ego is a non-playable character in Project X Zone 2 in a rival unit. Here is the Chapter 20 of Next Warp Zone.

Chapter 20: A Father and Son's Redemption

Kazuya lowers his head after he was rendered powerless due to the activation of the "portalstone" which it absorbs his devil powers. He angrily blames Jun for foiling his plans or losing his powers.

"Damn you, Jun... This is all your fault... It's not just to foil my plans to gain the power I need. You also render me powerless..." Kazuya angrily blames himself for his lament of action as Jin simply remarks.

"How can you blame my mother if she's already dead?"

"What did you say!?" Kazuya said while raising his brow as Jin lowers his head as he looked on his fist which he realizes what he had done. "Don't tell me that you..."

"Don't you ever know how my mother was suffering, father?" Jin said as he admits visibly upset. "You tried to fight her to gain the power you needed. When I faced her in Heavenly Garden, she was challenging me but it is not my fate to defeat her even she turns into Unknown."

"..."

Jin remembers how his mother Jun was suffering when Unknown is controlling her body when he faces her as a flashback occurred back when he is facing Unknown in Fallen Garden.

Flashback:

"Mother... please you have to wake up... Don't make me do this..." Jin said desperately and Unknown stands up and wanted to kill him.

"Don't even dare calling me that...?"

Suddenly, Unknown suffers a severe pain as she clutches her stomach. She realizes that her human form is trying to restrain her making herself vulnerable.

"Ugh... what are you doing? Are you trying to stop me with this?"

Jin watches to see Unknown's suffering and he saw her right eye becomes brown and knowing that his mother Jun is trying to restrain her.

"Jin... you must kill me... I can't take this any longer. Please... you must do this..."

"Mother... please... I can't kill you. This is not my fate of doing this..." Jin said refusing of killing her.

"If you don't otherwise she will overpowered me. Now please do it... even if it means for the world that we live in. This is the last hope for our world." Jun cried and Jin lowering his head. He closes his eyes and he's struggling to save her as he tells her sadly.

"Mother... forgive me..." Jin then rushed as he quickly punches straight to her stomach using his most powerful move, the Avenger knocking Unknown to the ground in defeat with red lightning embbed on his fist.

Unknown then suffers while summoning white wolf spirits while screaming in pain as she was attacked by a wolf spirit on her groin and she smiles and she renders unconscious. Jin then catches her in time not to put her completely covered in purple slime.

Flashback over:

Jin clenches his fists and tears come from both of his brown eyes knowing that her death triggers his emotions from the tragic events happened to him. Kazuya realizes that Jin had done it and he stood up and sadly realizes that he made a wrong choice to kill his own son and seeing his critical mistakes.

"I should be the one to kill her not you, Jin..." Kazuya said as Jin dries his tears.

"You even try to warn me about her, father... I tried to think in how can I save her and she's the only parent left in me. Now she's gone, I'm all alone and to rely my own friends."

"Jun did taught you some morals, Jin." Kazuya said finally wanted to resolve his actions. "I guess my father didn't taught me those things. All I ended up being treated harshly for my weakness and the love for both my mother and my grandfather."

"Your mother?" Jin wondered as Kazuya tells him.

"My mother was Kazumi Mishima... She is the first person who started the Devil Gene bloodline or perhaps you call that a cursed blood." Kazuya said finally explains their blood relation. "Unlike my father or Lars who does not have that power like we do. She confirms everything."

"...So Kazumi Mishima is my grandmother?" Jin said in a horrible shock.

"I was like you who loved their mother so much and taught us about morality." Kazuya said and he tells everything had started before. "Before you were born with Jun, I was like you... striving myself to get stronger and to become undefeated after your grandfather had thrown me through the cliff when I was still little. This is how I gained the scar on my chest and Devil's activation which everyone knows that I sold my soul from it."

"..."

"I wanted to correct all my father's wrong doings. But I just did the same way as he did making the Zaibatsu into a more corrupted organization. This is how I met your mother, Jun Kazama. A WWWC officer sent to stop me for smuggling animals. Since then, Jun and I were crossed paths and I treated her like how mother treated me that way. Your mother was fearless and mysterious even if she tries to help me to fight Devil but it leads to my downfall that fighting my evil side was the right thing to do. My father, Heihachi defeated me in the end which leads me to thrown at the mouth of an active volcano and my remains are soon found by the rival company, G Corporation which is now I currently owned." Kazuya explained. "I was resurrected by them and realizing my mistakes and the red eye on my left which has been constructed by them when I decided to use my own body so that other scientists would learn a lot about the Devil Gene."

"I can't believe it... Grandfather, didn't telling me this? Ever since he started the third tournament. All he could tell me about was great-grandfather." Jin said could not believe of the truth.

"He did this because he wanted to conceal his ruthful actions of what happened to me and our bloodline. That's why he betrayed you in the end." Kazuya said knowing of his father's actions. "It's because of our bloodline you think it is cursed. He would put us down for the count but killing you with firearms is unfairly."

"..."

"I was surprised when I first met my own son from Jun. I never expect that you were captured by my own father. When Devil controls me, he attempts to get the other half of you to make him full again but since you inherited your mother's blood it enables you to restrain yourself from being controlled. And this is how I started my plan to gain the power I need." Kazuya said knowingly of his own plans. "Even if I tried to fight you when you were the head of the Mishima Zaibatsu just to find the cure for your own blood but you cause all the chaos by creating a world war. I didn't expect Jun would be disappointed to see her own son had made a complete mess."

"She told me to start over but I told her it was already too late." Jin said sadly. "Even if she dies in front of me, she still guided me even she shows her apparition towards me. I tried to kill both you and my grandfather to stop this bloodline. If it wasn't for mother, I would ended up sparing the both of you for the sake of our blood relation."

"... I finally understand why Jun sacrifices her life for you even she instructs you to kill her to stop Unknown. It was not fair... It's supposed to be me to kill her not even you..." Kazuya said and finally decides to give his son another chance. "Like your teacher told me... I just want to have another chance. This time I won't betray you like I did before."

"Did Sensei told you this?" Jin wondered in confusion.

"Hehe... your teacher reminds me of you as my age. He was a very tough person and greatly respects people. But for me I had no sense of honor due to my greed for power." Kazuya smirks calmly as he stretches both of his arms. "Darn... I haven't bathe myself ever since I followed the both of you from any travel in another time."

"..."

"I've never seen both of your stories are kinda tragic." Shugo said finally believe in their stories as Jin looked at him in a gloomy way. "Wait, I can't do that... He's your father... you have to do that..."

"Ugh... I guess I had no other choice..." Jin said while shaking his head which Kazuya smiles in delight.

That night, Both men are seen in towels as Jin scrubs his father's back harder with a small towel and soap while Shugo is taking a nap.

"Mmmm... I feel so relaxed. Who taught you to massage other people, Jin?"

"I don't massage other people, father?" Jin said while raising his brow. "I learned that from myself. In case if anyone else would even saw me that on the bath house."

"Let me guess... you actually taking a bath together with Jun, aren't you? Despite my absence, I just want to see the both of you." Kazuya jokily said which makes Jin blushes in embarrassment as his cheeks were rosier.

"Can't you stop talking about, mother? Past is a past... If I would be with my mother in my age, I won't even do it...?"

"Haha... you don't even stand of my jokes, Jin." Kazuya laughs happily until he asks him personally. "Listen, If I were in your grandfather's age. Would you take care of me then?"

"Huh? Why would I take care of you? You and grandfather have plenty of egos of their sleeves. If I took care of you? It reminds me if I took care of my grandfather back before he betrayed me." Jin answered in a serious tone.

"If you were very attached to your mother, Jin...? You were indeed had a mother complex who is very protective to their mothers. I know you wouldn't like Jun to wear anything revealing. When I was observing before your grandfather held the tag tournament. Jun was completely beautiful even I saw you froze when she confronted you."

"Wait... that's when me and my friends relaxing in the beach at Okinawa until me and Nina are observing the fighters. I should have known..." Jin said remembering the good times when his mother Jun and his friends together.

"It's too bad that I didn't watch you fight beat that garbage in a fundoshi." Kazuya said smirking as Jin still blushes knowing of his sensitivity as he stood up. "You should clean yourself up then I rinse it off by taking a dip in the lake."

As Kazuya stands up and walking away, Jin goes to clean himself up with soap and water until he saw his father took off his towel to take skinny dipping in a lake much to his shock.

"Father... don't tell me that you're gonna rinse yourself by skinny dipping on the lake...?" Jin said shockingly as Kazuya replies.

"Relax... the water is fine... now stop being act like a baby and rinse yourself up. I don't harass you or anything. If the both of us transformed into our devil forms? Our clothes will be shredded."

"If we reverted back to our normal selves we'll ended up naked...?" Jin shouted blushing. "Can't you stop saying those stuff like that!?"

"Shut your mouth, Jin... It would be disrespectful if you raise your voice like that. Now why don't you get dip in the lake and do as I say!?" Kazuya said scolding at Jin which Jin gets angrily dismayed by his actions as he goes to clean himself up in the lake.

"Grr... I don't believe this..."

After that, Jin manages to catch some fish as he grilled them in three sticks in a bonfire they made and everyone is seen wearing their sleepwear as Jin wears the same sleepwear as where he previously talked to Hunyo wearing a black tank top and gray trousers.

"Whoa... I ever seen you got a big fish..." Shugo smiled happily.

"It's a long story, Shugo..." Jin said in delight as Kazuya arrives carrying four fishes while wearing a dark blue tank top, and a pale blue trousers.

"I have some more fish to grill, Jin. So it is true, that your teacher had taught you some survival techniques when we are in the forest especially some ingredients that put on the fish."

"Just condiments, father... a single salt and pepper can grill them out." Jin said telling him.

"Hehehe... Before I became the Head of G-Corporation, Bruce was working as a survival instructor. But since you and I were enemies..." Kazuya said remembering how he reunited with Bruce.

"..."

"...What a pity that you easily noticed my word?"

"I remember where Sensei took me in to know how to do survival techniques somewhere." Jin wondered and Kazuya sighs and he considers Hunyo as his rival.

"...I would considered your teacher as my rival. If he teaches you more than I do? I would do whatever it takes to be responsible to you as a parent."

"The old guy was tough guy and a karate master like Jin does in Kyokushin Karate." Shugo said telling him. "But, he has some Street Brawling Moves for his own..."

"Wait... That would be Burning Ju-Jitsu a fighting style mixes with both Street Brawling and Traditional Karate that can set everyone on fire." Jin said remembering how Hunyo tells him before. "But he's an excellent driver to drive an SUV like uncle Lars do.

"Hmph... who cares if he's good. He has to be man enough to face me. Even if he scolds me because of you. He wants to prove myself that I'm a better parent than he does." Kazuya said while having his arm crossed and sitting on the ground.

"Father... your actions just like you planned to kill me." Jin simply remarked as he almost finish grilling the fishes.

"I don't care the way your teacher acts... he's not like Lee's. But he's just like you." Kazuya said knowing of Hunyo's actions are the same as Jin's which the latter finally finishes grilling the fishes and ready to eat.

"Okay, the fishes are ready to eat..."

"Wow... it smells delicious..." Shugo smiled happily.

"Looks like you inherited Jun's cooking skills, Jin." Kazuya said and became grateful to his son. "I wish if I could try her cooking for once."

After dinner, everyone is asleep and Kazuya gets the "portalstone" on Jin's backpack and knowingly that his devil powers are absorbed from the stone as he thought.

I thought myself that my Devil Gene became amplified with the stone. But it turns out from bad to worse... I was rendered powerless due to absorbing my powers from the stone.

Kazuya looked to see Jin sleeping comfortably and he realizes that it was the only time he could have another chance to protect and to take care of his son and he put a blanket on him as he said to his son who is asleep.

"Rest well, son..."

The next day, Jin is seen fixing his red and black gauntlets and they are ready to travel and was contacted by Ryu.

"Ryu... what is it?"

"Jin, did you figure it out how to return back to our own time?" Ryu asked as Jin simply answers.

"Simple, We have to combine our time zappers in order to create another warp portal in going back to our own time."

"All right, Now that we can go back..." Akira smiled excitedly.

"However, We have to find Chun-Li, Xiaoyu and Pai. Those three are also here to search for us." Jin said telling them.

"Chun-Li... Oh no... Now that we have to find them too." Ryu said sadly and Ken becomes angered to see Kazuya is with them.

"Jin, don't tell me that your father is here with you. He betrayed you to get the stone, right."

"Relax, Masters... After I give the "portalstone" to him and his powers from his Devil Gene got absorbed from the stone and rendered powerless. There's no need to worry about him." Jin said calmly to them.

"So the stone's power can absorb any evil entities such as the Satsui No Hado or the Devil Gene. It was a very powerful stone." Ryu said sensing.

"I guess you might able to use three of your phones to make a warp portal. That way we can find Pai and the two ladies." Kage-Maru suggested.

"Ryu... We have to use the time zappers. I simply forgot Rei had contacted me about this matter." Jin said telling them.

"Okay... we'll do it." Ken said smirking as it hung up.

"I guess combining both gadgets to make a portal. Hmph, Interesting..." Kazuya smirked as Jin raises his edge phone as it glows in a red light as it zaps in a red light in the sky. Both Ryu and Akira raises the phones and it glows in both blue and green and it zaps as both created a warp portal.

"All right... Now let's find Chun-Li..." Ryu said seriously as Akira replies.

"Don't forget Pai, Ryu. She's in our side..."

"Let's go, guys!" Ken exclaimed as the group enters the warp portal.

Meanwhile, Jin, Kazuya and Shugo are ready to enter the warp portal. Jin becomes serious after hearing Xiaoyu is with Chun-Li's side as the trio enters the warp portal.

Present Time:

Both Lars and Heihachi are completely exhausted after setting a one on one duel.

"Hah... you got so strong... you can't even succeed me even if you intend to defeat me at this rate." Heihachi mocks Lars for his weakness which Lars attempt to make another strike towards his father. However, Hayato Kanzaki arrives to interrupt the fight as Heihachi manages to block his sword.

"Wow... this opponent has a strong fighting spirit." Hayato said smirking as Heihachi evades.

"Lars... this fight will be a warm up. Next time, I will kill you including everyone else, Gahahahaha..." Heihachi merely leaves the scene.

"Wow... thanks for the rescue." Lars said nicely and Hayato was impressed.

"You must be a fighter. I ever seen you fight a senile old man."

"That my father you're talking about." Lars corrects him.

"What!? He's your father..." Hayato said shockingly and finally introduces himself. "I'm Hayato Kanzaki a gladiator who wields my Plasma Sword."

"I'm Lars Alexandersson... pleasure to meet you and welcome to Yggdrasil." Lars introduces himself to Hayato and the latter was impressed on joining the fight.

Behind them, Saya was the spying on them as she thought.

So the old man had run away and a newbie comes to the rescue. All right, time to put the rebels down once Bison orders obliteration.

With that Saya, Dokumezu and Dokugozu leave back to the Shadaloo base.
