Versus Asuka

Lili's private plane, En route to Tokyo from Phuket, Thailand…

Sebastian: "Tea Miss Lili?"

Lili: "Certainly Sebastian. Thanks." (Sips and thinks.) "Tomorrow I got my attention solely on you Ms. Kazama. Your defeat against me is inevitable." (Laughing inside.)

At long last this would be the final match of the preliminaries. With bribery of course, Lili always insisted to have a match with Asuka in the tournaments. Of course the officials did not care as long as they got money out of the proposal, so they always complied to Lili's wishes. Even so, ever since Lili's debut, she never could defeat Asuka in their matchups. From the outside looking in, the rivalry seemed lopsided. But in Lili's mind, Asuka was something like an idol to not only admire but to surpass as well.

The next night, Tokyo Dome, Tokyo, Japan…

The much anticipated night was finally here. Lili would arrive at the dome 2 hours early. She wanted to put on a show by singing her single "Lolita Diva" right before the match. Lili wanted the crowd to be happy even if they were a pro Asuka crowd since this fight was in Japan. Speaking of Asuka, she eventually arrived at the Dome, but by the time she started changing into her fighting attire, the crowd was singing that dreadful pop song. Was this a tournament fight or a concert?

Asuka: "I yi yi. This is supposed to be a fight, not some silly pop concert! I would like to go one tournament without her being around! Just one!" (Finishing her gloves as she smacks her fist with her left hand.)

At the Arena Stage…

Lili: "Thank you so much! I love you guys!"

Crowd screaming…

Announcer: "And now let's introduce the other fighter in this bout! Standing just over 160cm tall from Osaka Japan! Give a round of applause for Asuka Kazama!"

Sky blue smoke covered much of the walkway. Asuka eventually stepped out of the entrance as she passed through the smoke cover going into the ring. The crowd yelled even more for their native girl. Lili wasn't surprised but still couldn't help but feel a little jealous. When Asuka walked on the stage and faced Lili, one could tell Asuka was not in the mood for pleasantries.

Lili: "At long last! I get to have my final match with you Asuka Kazama! This time I will defeat you! And then you will be my servant for the remainder of the year! Are you prepared to duel?"

Asuka (Rolls eyes.): "Oh cut the crap! I know you bribed your way into making this match! And no I don't wanna be a servant to you! EVER!" (Sticks on tongue.)

Lili laughs hysterically…

Lili: "That look suits you! It's soooo cute!" (Laughing.)

Asuka: "Shut up and put em' up! Let's get this over with!"

Lili (Pirouette): "As you wish my Asuka!" (Laughing getting into stance.)

Asuka: "My Asuka?"

Official: "Are you ladies ready? FIGHT!"

Lili: "Here I come!"

With haste and eagerness Lili began her offensive of slap strikes at Asuka. Asuka blocks all of them and would eventually return the favor by grabbing Lili's arms to execute a hip roll over toss or a Koshi Guruma. Lili got sent to the ground. Asuka meant what she said when she tried to apply pressure on Lili's right arm, but Lili knew not to be in this vulnerable position as she booted Asuka on the side of her cheek with her right foot. That kick hurt a lot. So Asuka had to let go as Lili flipped herself off the floor, coming back to her feet. Lili then spin side kicked Asuka into her chest. The kick dropped Asuka's guard. Lili got Asuka with her patented Garland Cartwheel kick combination as she back flipped stomped Asuka dead on her back.

Asuka: "Gggwwwwaaaa!"

Lili: "Oops! Was that too much!?"

That attack was not something Asuka liked or was used to. Those flip kicks of Lili could certainly do damage when given the chance. Still, Lili had yet to show any new moves since their last bout. Before Lili could somersault stomp, Asuka rolled away from the attack. Lili got too hasty as Asuka got her back with an Exorcisor Elbow Strike. Lili hit the deck after the attack. The crowd was in a frenzy over this rival match up. The back and forth kept up for a good 5 minutes nonstop. Both girls were getting tired from their intensity. And then…something unexpected happened.

Lili: "Ttttaaaaaaahhhh!"

Asuka: "Hhhhhaaaaahhhh!"

POW!

At the same time, both girls kicked each other in the face! Lili's heel smacked Asuka's cranium as did Asuka's foot burying into Lili's face! They both threw spinning hook kicks one each other as they both collapsed on the stage floor. Everybody looking on was stunned by this. Was it a double knockout? The official came over to see if either girl was still conscious.

Official (Decides): "That's it! It's a double knockout! Draw!"

The crowd is in disbelief but most of them boo…

Later in a nearby Tokyo Hospital…

Lili (Wakes up.): "Mmmm…ow my head!" (Looking around.) "Oh no. I'm in a hospital. Don't tell me I lost again! Owww!" (Holding her bandaged head again.) "Where is Sebastian?"

Lili then notices her phone near the counter of her bed…

Lili (Uses it.): "I'm calling him right now." (Calls.)

Sebastian (Answers): "Miss Lili? Is that you?"

Lili: "Sebastian? Where are you? Why am I in the hospital? Did I really lose again?"

Sebastian: "Hang on! Hang on! Miss Lili! I was just using the bathroom! Allow me to wash my hands and I will be right over!"

Lili: "But Sebastian! Did I lose?"

Sebastian: "No…it was a draw."

Lili: "What?"

Sebastian: "Yes the referee declared it so. Asuka was down for the count as well."

Lili: "I…I…I can't believe it!" (Starts jumping up and down the bed) "It's a draw! A draw! A draw!" (Laughing.)

Lili jumped up and down the bed like a child with a new present after hearing the results of the fight with Asuka. However, Lili broke the bed because of her hyper mood as her weight put too much pressure on the bed's legs. She crashed and hurt herself again, but she would be ok. Sebastian finally entered the room and panicked seeing Lili on the ground with a busted up bed.

Sebastian: "Miss Lili! Are you alright!"

Lili: "Oh Sebastian! It was just an accident!" (Laughing.) "I'm just so happy I did not lose!"

Sebastian: "I will ask for a new bed. Please sit here and I will have the nurses find you another one."

Lili: "Ok."

Eventually the broken bed was replaced by Sebastian and the nurses who were working at the hospital floor where Liil was placed in. Once Lili resettled in a cushier bed, she wanted to know where Asuka was. Sebastian said Asuka was taken to another hospital for treatment, most likely a G Corp owned one. Lili really wanted to talk with her for she wanted to rub it in the girl's face for not winning the bout.

The next day…

Lili was told by the doctor not to do anything stressful on the body for the next 4 days as she was released from the hospital once more. Despite her record in the prelims, Lili could participate in the elimination rounds according to Tekken officials. She would need to make her way to Miami by facing a newcomer in the tournament. Lili had no clue as to who this lady was, but nothing was gonna stop her from facing Heihachi Mishima. Now that Lili had finally gotten a non-loss from Asuka, she vowed to continue this momentum heading deeper in the tournament. Then Lili wondered about her fellow tournament counterparts like Leo Kliesen and Lucky Chloe. How did they fare in the tournament?
