"Tina! Have you seen my Suntan lotion?" Ayane yelled from her room.

"Hrm? No, I haven't. Ask Helena." Tina yelled back. Ayane sighed and walked over to Helena's room, knowing that the music was too loud for anyone to be heard over. Entering, Ayane entered the unknown. The Dead or Alive tournament had ended and they were rewarded with a 3 week vacation in the Bahamas, and this was prime vacation time for there. Lei-Fang exited from her room at the other side of the hallway, catching the eye of Tina.

"THAT'S what your wearing?" Tina asked, her eyes turning into little pin points.

"Is something wrong with it?" Lei-Fang looked at the suit.

"It's a 1 piece! Show some skin!" Tina blurted out.

"... HEY!" Lei-Fang cried as she was dragged back into her room. Tina threw her down and then began to dig into Lei-Fang's other swimsuits. She found 3 swimsuits, all 1 pieces. Tina stared at Lei-Fang.

"What?" Lei-Fang asked.

"Are you conservative for something? Never mind. AH HA! Found 1!" Tina giggled as she held them up.

"I thought I told Yuffie I didn't want those!" Lei-Fang said, paling. Tina grinned evilly and then called Kasumi and Ayane, who had found her sunscreen, in KASUMI'S room, into the room. Once they had entered Tina whispered something to them, and they gained evil smiles.

"HEY!" The 3 ganged up on Lei-Fang, "Kasumi... What are you doing with those scissors?"

Lei-Fang fumed as she stood on the beach in a, what she considered skimpy, Bikini. True she didn't have as big of a chest as the others, but the thing she was wearing was too small for her tastes. It was Emerald green, upside-down heart shape cut (It's tied up behind the neck and has no straps for the shoulders.) with a large cut to show some chest. The bottom was snug fitting, but luckily not a string tie or a thong. And unlike the braids she usually had, her hair was tied in between her shoulder blades, the rest of her hair reaching the small of her back.

"Guys, I am gonna KILL you for this!" Lei-Fang muttered behind her teeth. Tina and Kasumi just smiled, Helena and Ayane to involved in their sunbathing to care. Setting down her blanket, Lei-Fang sat down, and grabbed the sunscreen, which was slightly scented like some sort of flower. Rubbing it on herself, she grabbed her sunglasses, laid on her stomach, and began to sunbathe.

Around 10 minutes later as the girls had all settled down, except for Tina, who had just returned getting a drink elsewhere, there was a sudden spray of sand.

"AH!" "AIEE!" "!!!" "There's sand in my drink!" "My hair!" came from 5 surprised girls. Laying sheepishly in the sand, lay Hayabusa, with a volleyball in his hands. Standing up, The girls glared.

"It was a mistake! ACK! Kasumi!" Hayabusa yelped, as he flew into the ocean. The girls heard the laughter of the Hayate and Zach nearby. Kasumi, Helena, Ayane and Tina nodded and ran after Hayate and Zach, who soon joined Hayabusa. Lei-Fang sighed and took off the thin wrap around her waist and then waded into the water, staring at the clear blue waters before diving back in.

Some distance away, Jann Lee sat on a cliff, practicing. Looking down, he shook his head at the group of 7 down there.

'Why are they wasting their time when they could be training?' Jann Lee thought, when he caught sight of Lei-Fang. Staring at her, he froze, not knowing that he did. When he finally caught himself, he shook his head and then noticed a flyer. Taking it, he headed back to his room.

Lei-Fang and the rest of the group were walking around, buying random this, and while the guys weren't there, the girls forced Lei-Fang to get more revealing, more fashionable clothing. Lei-Fang sighed when she spotted a flyer.

"Hey guys! Look!" Lei-Fang said. Turning, they looked at the flyer.

"A 2 on 2 fighting contest?" Hayate said.

"Let's take part. It'll be a shoe in." Tina commented. After everyone had agreed, Lei-Fang noticed a tiny sub-note.

"Bathing suits required?"

"What?"

Lei-Fang nibbled on the apple when there was a knock on her door.

"It's open." Helena walked in.

"So who are you gonna partner up with?" Helena asked, grabbing a pear and sitting next to Lei-Fang.

"No idea. Maybe you or someone else." Lei-Fang said. Helena frowned.

"It's got to be a man/woman combo. I got Gen-Fu to partner up with me." Helena said. Lei-Fang kept thinking.

"I know! Why not with Zach or Jann Lee?" Helena responded.

"Hrm?"

"Their speed will work great with your power. It'll be the perfect teaming!" Helena continued.

"Hrm. I'll think about it." Lei-Fang said. After a hour of talking, Helena left. Lei-Fang stared up at the stars above her. She kept thinking about Jann Lee. She had kicked his butt in DOA2, but she... didn't expect his reaction. He said it right after she knocked him down.

*"I'll get back at you.... if it's the last god damn thing I do."* It had broken her heart, and when it reformed, it was stronger then steel, yet still. Still she loved him... And it hurt her very much. Getting up, she walked out to the balcony, feeling the cool air against her skin, because she was in a thin white, silk short nightgown. Her hair was down, because she was combing it, yet the dress felt heavy, her hair weighing her down. Sitting on the cold metal she stared at the ocean, put her hands into her face, and cried.

Jann Lee stared at the ocean, glaring at it as if it had caused him a great deal of damage to his pride. Hearing the opening of a nearby balcony door, he looked over to see Lei-fang, dressed in white, standing there. She didn't seem to notice him, and sat down. She seemed to stare at the ocean, and then she cried. Staring at her he felt his heart twist. He stared at her, yearning to just hold her, but his injured pride wouldn't allow it, it just couldn't. Even if his gut was twisted and his heart broken.
