Infectious Evil Arises
Outskirts of Osaka
It was getting late. The first night of the tournament was over. There were three singles matches to start off that night. Each of them had produced a winner. Winner of the first match was Jotaro Kujo, grandson of Joseph Joestar. The second winner was a mystical Indian fighter by the name of Dhalsim, who defeated the mummy known as Anakaris. The last winner of the night was the kickboxer and musician known as the 'Southern Comet', DeeJay Maximum.
Four friends were walking through the back trails of their neighborhood. Been awhile, but they've all rejoined just for this tournament. None of them have competed in the tournament, yet. There were two tournament veterans amongst the four friends. One of them had on a dark green school uniform and a white headband around his forehead.
He was known as Kyo Kusanagi, who competed in this tournament twice. Kyo formed a new rivalry and friendship against the master of Shotokan Karate; Ryu Hoshi. But, he's still retained his rivalry with the bearer of the dark purple flame; Iori Yagami. Kyo could perfectly remember the Satsu No Hadou erupting from Ryu and the Orochi erupting from Iori.
Another thing he could perfectly remember was the battle between Gouki and Rugal Bernstein. They didn't know what happened; but, it left Osaka in flames. With the combined efforts of the many fighters, the flames were extinguished.
Walking next to him was his long time friend; Benimaru Nikaido, who wore on white dress pants and a short tanktop. His blonde hair was electrically charged up. It looked extremely spiky. He too competed in the first two millenium tournaments.
"That was some night, eh Kyo?" Benimaru asked his long time friend.
Kyo nodded and agreed. What he couldn't believe was what they actually saw with the first fight between Jotaro Kujo and the English thug, known as Birdie. "Can you believe what you saw with that Jotaro Kujo?" asked Kyo.
"I see it; but, I don't believe it!" Shingo replied to Kyo's question. It was getting late and the four friends continued down the dark road.
Goro turned and faced the group. "I'd never imagine that this tournament would be big."
"I'd say." replied Kyo. "The hell was that thing?" he asked, adding to the comment.
"That was so amazing!!!" yelled Shingo.
The four friends continued down the dark streetside. Looking around, Shingo started to sniff around. Something in the air didn't feel right.
"Shingo, what the hell are you doing?" asked Benimaru, who crossed his arms and looked at Shingo. Kyo and Goro soon stopped to look at Shingo's strange behavior.
"Shingo?" Goro asked out of concern. The three friends just stood there and watched Shingo sniff around the area.
"Did any of you guys fart?" asked Shingo, who kept on sniffing around. The other three just shook their heads and proceeded without Shingo. All of a sudden, they could hear weak moans coming from the darkness. "Where's that coming from? Let's check it out. Maybe, it's just someone taking a dump."
"Shingo, you have any idea how wrong that sounded?" asked Benimaru, who snickered some.
Thinking about it, Shingo got what Benimaru asked. "Wait! No, that's not what I meant!"
The four of them continued down as the stench got stronger to a point, where they had to clench their noses. Moaning sounds got louder and louder. Slowly, human like figures started to limp out of the shadows. Each of them gave off that awful stench that Shingo smelled earlier.
"What in the..." Goro said as he looked at one of the people. The flesh on the person's face seemed to have rotten off. They looked hideous and gave off an awful odor. Instead of walking right, they staggered towards the four friends.
Benimaru got in his fighting stance. He was a bit scared at the sight of these things. "What are they? They look human; but, they're not..."
They looked to see more of them feasting on the corpse of a young woman. All four of them were horrified. This was something they thought only existed in the movies.
"Zombies?" asked Shingo. The group of zombies set their sites on the four friends. They had no choice but to fight. There were about twelve zombies in front of them. Each one would have to take on three zombies each. This was a whole new experience for the group.
Kyo looked right at the zombies. His right hand immediately caught fire. The group was ready to take action. "This looks to be much different. Could it be the NESTS cartel?" Kyo thought to himself. His eyes started to twitch some just looking at the undead. Chewed up and bloody human flesh were slowly falling from their mouths.
"Let's get 'em!!!!" yelled Benimaru as all four of them ran at the zombies. At the same time, the hungry zombies reached out and staggered towards them. As the four friends fought off the zombies, there would be other people around, who would have their own experiences.
With his ignited hand, Kyo dashed forward and executed a flaming punch to the first zombie. Shingo threw another zombie and three more zombies. Goro started tossing around the other zombies. And Benimaru used his electric ki to sizzle some of the other zombies.
Nearby on another street-
At the same time, Billy Lee and his girlfriend, Marian was walking down a nearby street. Billy's brother, Jimmy followed shortly behind. Accompanying Jimmy was a Russian woman named Sonia Romanenko. The two couples were enjoying the night. It was a great night to go around the city of Osaka.
"Billy, this was great." Marian said, smiling at her fiance. Marian was kidnapped a few times by the Shadow Warriors; but, was rescued by both Billy and Jimmy Lee. Now the two brothers will face their enemies at this year's millenium tournament.
From nearby, Billy could hear some fighting and loud moaning sounds. Quickly, he stopped and held his right arm out to block Marian's way. Looking at Billy, Marian crossed her arms.
"Billy, what's the meaning of this?" Marian asked out of curiously. She was a bit annoyed by this. Several human like figures started to step out into the light. They looked like the same ones that Kyo and the others are now fighting off.
"Billy, what are those?" asked Marian, who put her guard up. The Lee brothers have now had their fill of the undead, manufactured by the Umbrella agency.
"Billy, what's going on?" asked Jimmy, who looked around to see zombies approaching them. "Whew, they stink!" Jimmy also added to his recent comment.
"Guys, they look like zombies..." Marian replied with a hint of terror in her heart. She was somewhat shaking. "I know this is only in the movies... But, they're here in front of us!"
"Everybody, keep together!" Jimmy shouted as all four of them bunched up together. Together, they've gotten each other's backs in this.
"Could it be the Shadow Warriors or the work of Oni?" asked Sonia.
Billy slightly looked at Sonia. "I doubt it. Not the work of either of them." All four of them came together as the group of flesh hungry and blood thirsty zombies approached. Their painful moans got louder and louder.
Another area-
Strider Hiryu had his sword known as 'Cypher' drawn. "It seems that you demons have followed me from that dreaded island..."
Without a moment's hesitation, Strider immediately ran at two zombies. With a few swipes, Strider dashed by as the zombies were hacked in half. Blood and guts flung everywhere. Spinning the blade in a few circular motions, Strider hacked up a few more zombies.
With lightning speed, Strider managed to eliminate the zombies around him in just a matter of seconds. Strider Hiryu perfectly remembered Rockfort Island, before he completely decimated everything before leaving. He saw the horrors of the island.
What he never knew was that it was the doing of the Umbrella Corporation. Strider Hiryu just happened to stumble upon one of their secret testing facilities. More and more zombies were headed towards Strider's direction. The ninja warrior was ready to take them out.
Suddenly, loud and fast machine-gun fire came out from the upper left. Each round quickly tore a zombie into shreds. Looking upwards, he could see Jin Saotome and his giant robot; Blodia. Getting into Blodia's control, Jin continued to fire machine-gun rounds at the group of hungry zombies.
Looking at the computer map, Jin saw that there were other people engaged in combat against the undead. Jin looked around and saw both groups having to dispatched of the zombies in their respective areas. Everybody was huffing and puffing afterwards.
After awhile, all three groups got together. The ten of them looked around and saw the dead and torn up bodies laying around. It was truly a sickening sight. Marian quickly hid her face in Billy's chest. Slowly, everybody started to walk back. Kyo and his friends went over to his house.
Everybody else went back to their hotel rooms. All the fighters stayed in the same hotel for the duration of the tournament. Native fighters were allowed to stay at their homes. Secretly, Umbrella agents were placed around the scene. Carefully, they picked up all evidence of the T-Virus.
Hotel-
Chris Redfield and the others were lucky enough to be at the same hotel as the other fighters. He was sitting at the bar area with Jill Valentine and Leon Kennedy. Each of them were having daiquiris. Sitting at one area was William Guile, Charlie Nash, Sodom, and Rolento Schugerg. Each man had a beer bottle in their hands.
"Guile, that's enough beer" Rolento said, taking the next bottle away from Guile.
Immediately swiping the bottle back, Guile glared at Rolento. "Dammit, I'll know when it's enough."
"Be on your guard, you opponent for tomorrow is Jhun Hoon" Charlie said, taking the bottle away from Guile. "Jhun Hoon is one of the reigning Tae Kwon Do champions in all of Korea."
Guile sat back and stopped drinking beer. He's seen Jhun Hoon on TV and how fierce of a fighter that man is. Looking at the other side, he could see his opponent for tomorrow; Jhun Hoon.
Athena Asimiya was on the stand. She was singing a few songs on karoke. The girl had an extremely beautiful voice. Jhun Hoon was completely unfocused. All of his attention was focused towards the singer, Athena Asimiya.
Kim Kaphwan was sitting at the table with a plate of Korean barbeque. Sitting across from the table was his brother, Kim Sue-Il. Choi and Chang were at the bar, chugging down as much beer as possible. "Sue-Il, how have you been?" asked Kaphwan.
Sue-Il simply looked at his brother and took a sip of some Tsingtao Asian beer. "It's been harsh. Me and my friends are currently looking for people to help liberate this island from the clutches of King Leo."
"I hope you find those fighters, who will help you out; brother." Kaphwan stated to his brother. The two brothers enjoyed their beer and discussed old times. Kaphwan then turned his attention towards Jhun Hoon, who was oogling over Athena Asimiya.
"She was the main reason, why Jhun ended up in the hospital during one of the recent tournaments" Kaphwan stated towards his brother. Simply shaking his head, he continued to eat his Korean barbeque. "Anyway, Athena was giving a concert and Jhun wanted to go see it so badly. Without watching, he got hit by a car."
Guile looked at Jhun Hoon and shook his head. "I have to fight that guy?" asking himself out of sarcasm. His first opponent out of the tournament would be some Athena Asimiya fanboy.
"Hey, this could play in your favor" Sawada replied. "I know Athena's gonna watch the tournament. So, that will distract Jhun enough that he can't focus."
Nodding at the thought, Guile replied with "That could actually work."
Meanwhile back at the bar, Chris was downing a few more daiquiris. Looking around, he was surrounded by fighters from around the world. There were plenty of American fighters in this tournament. One of them he perfectly remembered at the opening was the one known as Ken Masters.
Barry Burton has been a specator for these many tournaments. He perfectly knows about almost each fighter. But, the man was sleeping in his room. Carlos sat at a table alone and depressed. He looked around and watched the women gather around the fighters.
"What do these fighters have that I don't..." Carlos grumbled to himself. "Those people wouldn't survive if this place went under attack by the undead..." thinking to himself. He just sat back and drank his soda. Carlos was obviously jealous that he didn't possess the fighting skills.
Edge and Rebecca were keeping to themselves. She was actually having a great time with the highschool student known as Edge. He was the first foreign person that he dated and vice-versa for Edge. The first American female he oogled over was the student from Pacific High, known as Tiffany Lords.
A cheerleader and girlfriend to the student known as Roy Bromwell. Both Tiffany Lords and Roy Bromwell were amongst the students taking down the corrupt Justice High. Afterwards, the students from the different highschools united and became friends.
What they didn't know was that a new evil would arise. It would be more severe than Justice High. Edge leaned back to the chair and looked at Rebecca's beautiful and seductive eyes. Rebecca was the first woman to come into his life, that caused him to relax and loosen up some.
"You're the first person to come into my life that caused me to show my wild side. I love it" Rebecca said to Edge, who blushed at her remark.
"Um, yeah! I feel the same" Edge replied, trying to regain his composure. Though, they have just met, Edge was slowly falling for this American woman. But, this would only be for a few days. Rebecca and her friends were strictly here on vacation.
Not wanting this night to end, Edge and Rebecca drew closer to each other and embraced in sweet, passionate, and loving kisses. This was the first time that Edge has Frenched someone. He was enjoying this moment. He was a normal person, not a gang member at Gedo High.
At a distance, people were watching the two. Shoma, Roberto, and Nagare sat back eating chips and drinking sodas. They were loving it. The three of them saw that Edge was simply putty in the hands of Rebecca Chambers.
At another table, Roy Bromwell had a video camera and was secretly taping Edge with Rebecca. Him and the other students were enjoying the fact that Edge was a softie.
At another area of the large dining area, Dan Hibiki was prancing around all happy. "I had sex, last night!!!" Dan announced all happy and such. Everybody else just shook their heads and turned away.
"Who the hell would sleep with him?" Rick Stroud thought to himself. This was his first millenium tournament. He couldn't believe that he would have to put up with annoying people like Dan Hibiki. Sitting at his table was Alfred, a martial artist and talented pilot.
Alfred couldn't bare to look at Dan Hibiki. "He's bragging about it?" asking himself. What they didn't know was that Ada Wong fucked him out of pity. The pilot went back to eating his meal. He couldn't stand the sound of Dan's ranting of how he had gotten laid the last night.
Guy Hinato and Cody Onahan kept to themselves. Neither any of them could bare to hear Dan's ranting. Immediately, the two left the bar and headed towards their hotel rooms. As the two men proceed out of the dining area, they ran into Billy Lee and the others, whom were heading back to the hotel.
"Hey, aren't you Billy Lee?" asked Cody Onahan. "I've seen you fight in tournaments, you were great" he added.
"Thanks, I've heard of you, too. I look forward to going against you, too." Billy said, while trying to catch his breath.
"What's wrong?" Cody asked the man.
"It was horrible, there were zombies. Dozens of them" replied a shaken up Marian Martin.
"Zombies, you said?" asked Guy Hinato.
Looking at the shaken up Marian, the other fighters rushed over to where she was. Hearing of all the commotion, Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine went to the crowd. They overheard the conversation. After several minutes, they heard about Marian's story of the zombies and the several dead bodies.
Seems that none of the fighters believed her in the first place. They went back to their areas and continued on with the celebration. Marian was enraged that nobody believed her in the first place. Slowly, Chris Redfield approached the four people.
"I believe you..." Chris said to the four of them. "Listen, since they don't believe you. We'll talk about this upstairs."
"Who are you people?" asked Jimmy Lee, crossing his arms with suspicious looks at both Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine.
"We can't tell you here" Jill stated to Jimmy. Agreeing the group immediately headed upstairs. A half hour later, the two of them explained the whole situation of the T-Virus, Raccoon City, other facilities, HCF, and the dreaded Umbrella Corporation.
"Whoa, that's some deep shit..." Jimmy said. He saw the zombies; but, hearing what the two former STARS members had to say, it simply blew his mind. "Zombies and an evil corporation. That's even deeper than the Shadow Warriors my brother and I had constantly fought" he finished.
"What I'd like to know is what interest Umbrella has in Osaka..." Chris stated to the group. "Could it be the tournament?" asking himself. "It's possible. Meaning all the fighters are in danger" saying to the group.
"Zombies, we can handle them" Billy Lee said to Chris.
Jill immediately cut into the conversation. "It's not just zombies. Umbrella has a legion of bio-engineered freaks. Those things killed our teammates several years back" she replied to Billy Lee's comment. The conversation about the Umbrella Corporation continued.
Umbrella HQ-
The ressurected Alexia Ashford sat in her chair and looked at the big monitor. A call was transmitted to her room as the man's voice said, "Mistress Alexia, we've found the person."
"Bring him up on screen" Alexia ordered. Doing as told, a picture of Strider Hiryu was brought up. "This was just taken with the incident with our subjects..." Alexia said, looking at the picture of Strider Hiryu. "His name is Strider Hiryu?" asked Alexia.
With an evil grin, she has found her target. The ninja known as Strider Hiryu. "Remarkable, these fighters do not need weapons to take on the legions of our undead" thinking to herself. Her main focus was on the one known as Strider Hiryu.
Strider Hiryu had recently destroyed her island. Now she was plotting her revenge against the futuristic ninja, known as the Strider.
Outskirts of Osaka
It was getting late. The first night of the tournament was over. There were three singles matches to start off that night. Each of them had produced a winner. Winner of the first match was Jotaro Kujo, grandson of Joseph Joestar. The second winner was a mystical Indian fighter by the name of Dhalsim, who defeated the mummy known as Anakaris. The last winner of the night was the kickboxer and musician known as the 'Southern Comet', DeeJay Maximum.
Four friends were walking through the back trails of their neighborhood. Been awhile, but they've all rejoined just for this tournament. None of them have competed in the tournament, yet. There were two tournament veterans amongst the four friends. One of them had on a dark green school uniform and a white headband around his forehead.
He was known as Kyo Kusanagi, who competed in this tournament twice. Kyo formed a new rivalry and friendship against the master of Shotokan Karate; Ryu Hoshi. But, he's still retained his rivalry with the bearer of the dark purple flame; Iori Yagami. Kyo could perfectly remember the Satsu No Hadou erupting from Ryu and the Orochi erupting from Iori.
Another thing he could perfectly remember was the battle between Gouki and Rugal Bernstein. They didn't know what happened; but, it left Osaka in flames. With the combined efforts of the many fighters, the flames were extinguished.
Walking next to him was his long time friend; Benimaru Nikaido, who wore on white dress pants and a short tanktop. His blonde hair was electrically charged up. It looked extremely spiky. He too competed in the first two millenium tournaments.
"That was some night, eh Kyo?" Benimaru asked his long time friend.
Kyo nodded and agreed. What he couldn't believe was what they actually saw with the first fight between Jotaro Kujo and the English thug, known as Birdie. "Can you believe what you saw with that Jotaro Kujo?" asked Kyo.

With his ignited hand, Kyo dashed forward and executed a flaming punch to the first zombie. Shingo threw another zombie and three more zombies. Goro started tossing around the other zombies. And Benimaru used his electric ki to sizzle some of the other zombies.

Sue-Il simply looked at his brother and took a sip of some Tsingtao Asian beer. "It's been harsh. Me and my friends are currently looking for people to help liberate this island from the clutches of King Leo."
"I hope you find those fighters, who will help you out; brother." Kaphwan stated to his brother. The two brothers enjoyed their beer and discussed old times. Kaphwan then turned his attention towards Jhun Hoon, who was oogling over Athena Asimiya.

"Who are you people?" asked Jimmy Lee, crossing his arms with suspicious looks at both Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine.
"We can't tell you here" Jill stated to Jimmy. Agreeing the group immediately headed upstairs. A half hour later, the two of them explained the whole situation of the T-Virus, Raccoon City, other facilities, HCF, and the dreaded Umbrella Corporation.
"Whoa, that's some deep shit..." Jimmy said. He saw the zombies; but, hearing what the two former STARS members had to say, it simply blew his mind. "Zombies and an evil corporation. That's even deeper than the Shadow Warriors my brother and I had constantly fought" he finished.
"What I'd like to know is what interest Umbrella has in Osaka..." Chris stated to the group. "Could it be the tournament?" asking himself. "It's possible. Meaning all the fighters are in danger" saying to the group.
"Zombies, we can handle them" Billy Lee said to Chris.
Jill immediately cut into the conversation. "It's not just zombies. Umbrella has a legion of bio-engineered freaks. Those things killed our teammates several years back" she replied to Billy Lee's comment. The conversation about the Umbrella Corporation continued.
Umbrella HQ-
The ressurected Alexia Ashford sat in her chair and looked at the big monitor. A call was transmitted to her room as the man's voice said, "Mistress Alexia, we've found the person."
"Bring him up on screen" Alexia ordered. Doing as told, a picture of Strider Hiryu was brought up. "This was just taken with the incident with our subjects..." Alexia said, looking at the picture of Strider Hiryu. "His name is Strider Hiryu?" asked Alexia.
With an evil grin, she has found her target. The ninja known as Strider Hiryu. "Remarkable, these fighters do not need weapons to take on the legions of our undead" thinking to herself. Her main focus was on the one known as Strider Hiryu.
Strider Hiryu had recently destroyed her island. Now she was plotting her revenge against the futuristic ninja, known as the Strider.
