Street Fighter: Endless Path
Chapter 30: The Tournament of Brotherhood
"We are gathered here today," Gill began his announcement on a podium. "Because we have embarked on a new journey, one of peace and world unity. In celebration of humanity's glorious new era, the Society will host its grand event: The Tournament of Brotherhood."
There are several scenes throughout the announcement, the first showing wrestler R. Mika watching in her locker room.
"We hope the friendly martial arts competition between the world's strongest warriors will symbolize the newfound brotherhood of all nations."
Second scene with movie star Fel Long wearing his black suit and yellow jacket with gold aviators in his limousine.
"Invitations for a number of VIP guest have already been dispatched. But I also extend this appeal to all martial artists who wish to join in the festivities."
Third scene at school with Ibuki, Elena and Makoto watching from Elena's tablet.
"Regardless of one's country, creed, fighting style or background, all are welcome. Petty things like borders or skin color will no longer divide us."
Final scene in a very messy kitchen with El Fuerte.
"This tournament will begin a new age where all who wish it will have a place a the table of the Society."
"For under Heaven, are we not all brothers and sisters."

Menat's tent
"So it's true," said Melody. Her, Chris and Gudelia were watching the announcement through Menat's crystal ball.
"The Tournament of Brotherhood," Menat began. "Where this so-called "new age" looms."
"What could this mean?" Chris asked worryingly.
"This tournament is a open door for disaster," Menat replied ominously. "Those who enter will unknowingly meet their end when they face Gill."
"I don't like this," said Melody. "You're saying this tournament is a signal to an apocalypse?"
"I'm afraid so, Melody."
"What can we do?" Gudelia asked.
"Do not enter the tournament," Menat answered. "Survey it but do so without risking harm to you. This tournament could be the end of the world."
Chris was breathing heavily, his body was shaking.
"Someone has to stop Gill," Melody said.
"Only one can stop him," Menat interjected, confirming the fears of her new comrades. but until then, be on your guard."
"Where will the tournament take place?" Gudelia asked.
"At the Society, but no one knows where it is."
"The world will end... and all fighters competing in this tournament will meet unknowing doom," Gudelia said.
"Unless they can find the Society's location, it would seem so."
