Chapter 29: Return To The Rising Sun
After suffering a severe beating to the Lei Team, Eddy, Feng, and Bryan boarded a plane to Japan hearing that there was a secret power hidden somewhere in the country and the trio of ne'er do wells thought that by obtaining this power would help them in getting revenge on the Lei Team for humiliating them.
"That Lei Team was a lot more formidable than I thought," grumbled Feng as he massaged his sore back.
"Meh, they got lucky, we won't slip up next time we confront them," replied Eddy.
"If we could take them, then why are we searching for some power that probably doesn't even exist?" asked Bryan.
"More backup, just a little insurance to make sure we walk away with a victory," answered Eddy.
"That makes sense, nothing wrong with a little life insurance," remarked Feng.
"I don't think even life insurance will help out the Lei Team when we're through with them," stated Bryan.
"Damn right Moon Doggie! Now let's find that power!" ordered Eddy.
"You got it, but if you call me Moon Doggie one more time, you'll be the one needing life insurance," threatened Bryan.
Without anymore words, the three men began their hunt in around th land of the Rising Sun for the possible hidden power. In the meantime, the Lei Team along with the Dark Hand were shopping around the Shibuya District of Tokyo, enjoying a leisurely vacation there.
"Man, I'm glad we got to come here without having to do any missions this time around," commented Ganryu.
"Yeah, it's good to be home and actually get to relax," replied Asuka.
"There's so much to do here, all the fun without having a job to do, I love the sound of that," remarked Lei.
"Indeed, but trying to pick what to do first is going to be a hard choice," stated King.
"We should go to a hot spring, I could use a nice hot bath," suggested Wang.
"We'll do that later after we've explored a bit," replied Lei.
"Ai ya, it's going to be hard to wait for that," cried out Wang.
"You can wait you old pervert, those ladies aren't going anywhere," chimed in Xiaoyu.
"I say we dress up as Japanese celebrities and run around town making people laugh," suggested Dragunov.
"That's a retarded idea Dragunov, almost none of us look Japanese," grumbled Steve.
"I think it's a great idea HOOOOOOOOO!" cried out Lee who for some reason was dressed as Hard Gay, leather shorts and all and was thrusting his pelvis up against Paul's leg.
"Punter kicks football!" shouted Paul as he punted Lee away from him.
"Why don't we go see a sumo wrestling match, after I feel me and Asuka should decide first, it's our home country," suggested Ganryu.
"Works for me, since it is a valid point," commented Lei.
"Ok, then off we go," announced Hwoarang.
"OKAAAAAYYYYYY!" said Lee thrusting his pelvis crazily as the group walked off towards a sumo wrestling ring. In the meantime, Eddy, Bryan, and Feng were searching deep in the forests on Tokyo's outskirts for the rumored hidded dark power that they could use to get revenge on the Lei Team.
"I really think we're going on a wild goose chase here, we're not gonna find any hidden power around here," grumbled Feng.
"Oh shut up, you're just not looking hard enough," snapped Eddy.
"Hey, you know, maybe one of the townsfolk knows about where it is, if we one of them hostage and have them show us the way, we should find it no problem," stated Bryan.
"Bryan, I like your thinking, let's do just that, it will save us the hassle of all this searching around like idiots and get us to that power faster" suggested Eddy.
"You got it man!" exclaimed Feng as the troublesome trio walked over towards the big city. Meanwhile, the Lei Team checking out some of the curiou in the Akibahara district where a lot of the otaku merchandise stemmed from.
"Wow! So much cool stuff here I don't know what to buy!" exclaimed Xiaoyu.
"Buy me some hentai!" shouted Wang.
"I'm not using my money to buy you that stuff," replied Xiaoyu.
"Don't be a cheap ass Wang, if you want it, you can buy it, you have enough money," added Lei.
"Ai ya, I have to buy it myself," grumbled Wang.
Suddenly, a loud scream was heard causing the Lei Team and the Dark Hand to jump in the air and turn towards the direction of the scream.
"Ay carumba, someone is in trouble," stated King.
"Well then, we better go help them quick," said Raven.
"I agree, let's take care of these punks that would dare to ruin our day and someone else's as well," ordered Lei.
As the Lei Team ran towards the direction of where the scream emitted, they saw Eddy, Feng, and Bryan trying to drag a Japanese woman away, teh entire team groaned in disbelief.
"Hey, didn't you guys get your ass beat bad enough last time?" asked Asuka.
"Oh great, look who came to rain on our parade," groaned Bryan.
"Your parade sucks anyways, of course we're gonna rain on it!" exclaimed Lei.
"Raging storm tears apart parade float!" shouted Paul.
"Not this time, revenge shall be ours for the embarrassment you put us through last time we fought!" replied Eddy.
"Yeah right, quit now unless you want a double dose of embarrassment," retorted Raven.
"Don't you realize the odds are against you?" inquired King.
"He's right you know, we're screwed practically," gulped Feng.
"Then let's make a break for it!" shouted Eddy as he tossed the woman aside and the three men ran towards teh forest yet again.
"We better go after them before they cause more havoc," grumbled Ganryu.
"Ai ya, we must hurry before they ruin this outing," cried out Wang.
"They aren't ruining anything as far as I'm concerned," stated Lei.
The Lei Team and Dark Hand checked to make sure that the woman was ok, and upon confirming she was, began their pursuit of Eddy, Bryan, and Feng who had disappeared into the forest just outside of Tokyo. While sprinting through the forest, the troublesome trio came across an abandoned temple sitting in the middle of the forest and smirked at the sight of it.
"Well gentlemen we found a hiding spot to lay low until the heat dies down," commented Eddy.
"You sure they won't follow us in there?" asked Bryan.
"They'd be stupid to, that temple has something we can arm ourselves with to make those idiots resent crossing our paths," replied Feng.
"Feng's right, let's go loot that temple and take out the trash known as the Lei Team," ordered Eddy.
Without a moment's hesitance, Eddy and company stomped off into the secluded temple. The rustling of leaves was still audible however as the Lei Team and Dark Hand bounded across the forest looking for the whereabouts of Feng, Bryan, and Eddy.
"They couldn't have gotten this far, so where the hell could they be," huffed Asuka.
"You think they're in that secluded temple that's in this forest here?" asked Ganryu.
"Where else could they hide out in this open forest, that's the most logical place they would hide," answreed Lei.
"They have no respect for anything do they." grumbled Xiaoyu.
"I guess we have no choice but to go in after them," said Hwoarang.
"You know we can do this, OKAAAAAAY! HOOOOOOOOO!" cheered Lee thrusting his pelvis against Hwoarang.
Hwoarang nudged Lee off of him as the dozen walked towards the temple. As they walked up the steps and creaked the door open, they did see Eddy, Bryan, and Feng looking angrily at all of them.
"What are you pissed off about, mad that we found your hiding spot?" inquired King.
"Well no, we knew you'd find us eventually, we're pissed that you made us look like fools back in San Francisco," replied Bryan.
"You brought that on yourself by trying to attack us like idiots!" retorted Raven.
"Maybe we did, but now the tables have turned on you and we will have revenge for what happened then," stated Eddy.
"Did you guys eat paint chips when you were kids?" inquired Steve.
"Ooh, ooh! I did!" exclaimed Dragunov.
"I was speaking to them Dragunov," grumbled Steve.
"No we didn't, we got equalizers now," sneered Feng as he held a large spear in his hand and snickered at the Lei Team. Eddy pulled out a katana and Bryan pulled out a tonfa as they all glowered at the Lei Team and Dark Hand. Just then, a bell began to ring in the temple leaving everyone in confusion.
"Is this place haunted or something?" asked Wang.
"AAAAHHHH ghost!" screamed Dragunov who prepared to run out before Lei grabbed him by the shirt.
"Stay Dragunov, we're gonna find out what's going on here," ordered Lei.
Fog started ro rise from the floors and soon the fog began to take form. A blue skinned man in red samurai armor materialized before all of the people in the shrine. On the armor's torso region glared a menacing face that looked as if it was alive. His eyes glowed crimson as he glared at the people in the shrine.
"Who dares to defile this sacred shrine?" bellowed the samurai in an angry tone.
"Oh lookie, it's some reject Kabuki actor," joked Feng.
"Silence fool! I am Bishamon, the guardian of this temple and I will not have dishonorable dogs like you ruining this place!" barked Bishamon.
"Hey don't look at us, we just came in here to get these guys out of here," said Lei.
"I know, you twelve have done nothing wrong to incur my wrath, but these three are about to regret what they have done!" growled Bishamon.
"Oh yeah, it's three to one, you're shit out of luck!" yelled Eddy as he swung his katana at the samurai who merely deflected the blade and then knocked Eddy to the ground jarring the weapon loose from his hands. Feng jutted his spear forward, Bishamon dodged the blow and sliced Feng across the left arm causing him to wince in pain and drop his spear as Bishamon knocked Feng on top of Eddy.
"Hey dude look out!" shouted Lei as he kicked Bryan in the back as the pale skinned man attempted to blindside Bishamon with his tonfa.
"Thanks for the save man, but you go on and do what you please, I'll make sure these three learn some respect the hard way!" yelled Bishamon as he chased Eddy, Bryan, and Feng out of the temple. The three ran screaming for their lives as Bishamon ran after them repeatedly cursing in Japanese.
"Shall we assist Bishamon in taking care of them?" asked Ganryu.
"Nah, I'm sure he has it covered no sweat, those three aren't very smart anyways," replied Asuka.
"Indeed, I could use a break from schooling some dumbass that decides to act like an idiot when we're around," remarked King.
"Yeah, let's get back to town and get to what we want to do," said Lei.
"Now that's what I wanted to hear!" exclaimed Xiaoyu.
Without any hesitance, the Lei Team and Dark Hand headed back to the main city and spent the day browsing around and making merry eventually heading to where Wang wanted to go more than anywhere else, the hot springs.
"Ah, I feel young again coming to hot spring!" exclaimed Wang.
"You feel young, but you're still old no matter what," commented Raven.
"I know that, now let me be my hentai self!" retorted Wang.
As the men walked into the hot spring area, they saw Asuka and Xiaoyu lathering themselves up along with many of their female friends from past adventures, including Taki, Mai, Kyoko, and Chun-Li.
"Ai ya, this nice except for I no want look at my granddaughter! I'm not a redneck because my name is not Larry the Cable Guy!" cried out Wang as he walked off to an area of the hot springs away from Xiaoyu.
"Hot dog gets plump!" shouted Paul upon gazing at all the hot women.
"Co-ed hot springs FOOOOOOOOO!" shouted Lee thrusting his pelvis.
"Man, this is heaven!" exclaimed Lei.
"Yeah you got that right," replied some random guy walking by.
With that, the guys and girls enjoyed themselves in the soothing hot springs of Tokyo. In the meantime, Feng, Eddy, and Bryan were deep in the forests still running for their lives even though Bishamon was no longer chasing them. As they ran, they soon the three ran into a pit and fell down into a deep hole in the forest landing with a loud thud as they hit ground zero.
"Ow my ass!" groaned Eddy.
"Who the hell would dig a pit in the middle of a forest?" mumbled Feng.
"Hey guys, check this out!" piped up Bryan as he pointed at a heavy urn with a bunch of seals with kanji symbols on it.
"What do you think could be in the urn?" asked Feng.
"It's gotta be that hidden power, let's shatter this baby open!" ordered Eddy.
At that moment, the trio all struck the urn at the same time causing it to shatter. A huge surge of energy burst forth from the shattered urn and as he light died down, a large form stood before Eddy, Bryand, and Feng. He was bald with a long white mustache and beard, dark skinned with a very muscular build. The figure had on white pants and a purple sash around the pants and also wore wooden sandals on his feet.
"So, you are the ones that freed me, I thank you, for that, just tell me what you desire," said the man who was trapped in the urn.
"We want more power to exact revenge on those that have screwed us over!" said Eddy, Bryan, and Feng in unison.
"What a coincidence, I want revenge too! Well then, you shall help take over this pitiful world, now bow before your new master, Jinpachi!" bellowed the man.
"Yes Master Jinpachi!" exclaimed Eddy, Bryand, and Feng all at once. The three had unleashed a new evil unto the world and once again, the call to combat this new threat would soon have to reach the ears of Lei Wulong and his motley crew.
Ask Lei segment
"Hey Lei," says some little kid.
"Yes?" asked Lei.
"Are you an otaku?" asked the kid.
"To a certain extent yes I am. Anime and video games are a lot of fun, but they don't consume my life since I do have a job and of course bills to pay, but yeah I guess you can I'm a bit of an otaku," answered Lei.
"Ok thank you," said the kid.
"Believe it!" exclaimed Lei.
