Chapter Fifteen: Eliza
"From the Masters Foundation," The announcer introduced, "Elizabeth Masters!"
The crowd--especially Ken applauded as Eliza stepped out onto the stage, wearing a sexy red dress and black knee-high boots. Her long blonde hair was tied into a single ponytail and was slung over one shoulder. Flashing a grin, she stepped up wo the microphone just as her song, 'Glory of Love,' began to play.
[Note: The song Glory of Love was sung by Peter Cetra. In Eliza's case. I had to change some of the words around. Bah]
[Tonight it's very clear]
[Cause we're both lying here]
[There's so many things I wanna say]
Note: To get a good idea on how Eliza's singing voice sounds, think Michelle Branch, just slightly older. Sorry, I came back from a blood drive.]
[I will always love you]
[I will never leave you alone]
Ken knew that Eliza loved this song. It was one of her favorites.
[Sometimes I just forget, say things I might regret]
[It breaks your heart to see me crying]
[I don't want to lose you]
[I could never make it alone]
From backstage, Chun Li, Cammy, and Juli watched Eliza perform. Chun Li looked at Ryu. He was watching Eliza sing, occasionally taking notes.
[You are my man who will fight for my honor]
[You'll be the hero that I'm dreaming of]
[We'll live forever knowing together]
[That we did it all for the glory of love]
On stage, Eliza steeled herself to continue. She was doing a very good job not not showing that she was nervous. 'Come on, Eliza,' she thought. 'You can do it.'
Looking directly at Ken, Eliza continued to sing.
[You keep me standing tall]
[You help me through it all]
[I'm always strong when you're beside me]
[I have always needed you]
[I could never make it alone]
From somewhere in backstage, Vega watched Eliza perform. 'Such beauty this woman has,' he thought. 'Her beauty and grace is second compare to mine. It is a shame that she is married to that idiot Masters. Maybe I'll ask Lord Bison if I can take her and make her mine.'
[You are my man who will fight for my honor]
[You'll be the hero that I'm dreaming of]
[We'll live forever knowing together]
[That we did it all for the glory of love]
The song reached a cresendo as Eliza contiuned on.
[Like a knight in shining armor]
[From a long time ago]
[Just in time you will will save the day ]
[Take me to your castle far away]
From backstage, Cammy and Chun Li grinned, knowing that Eliza had gotten through her stage fright and that she was going to be okay.

The audience applauded the blonde woman as her song finished. With a bow, Eliza blew off a kiss as she walked off the stage.
