Previously: A voice called out to Kasumi in her sleep frightening her greatly. When Kasumi woke up screaming, she heard a thud on her floor. She thought her land lady below was checking up on her. After a few more thuds, Kasumi realized that something was wrong. She fled to her land lady's apartment and kicked down the door. Kasumi then met her land lady's daughter, Melani Hui. Melani Hui was taken from her mother at birth and and her father sold her to DOATEC. 19 years later, Melani escaped DOATEC and returned home. The experimentation Melani went under as a child gave her dark purple hair and the power of telepathy.

This time however, Melani's mom was taken. Melani believed that the captors were the highly skilled assassins that have been chasing after Kasumi ever since Kasumi broke the code of Shinobi. Melani contacted Kasumi's brother and half sister with her telepathy for help. Kasumi's brother called for his friend, Ryu Hayabusa. Hayabusa went after Jann Lee and Leifang for help. Now the story continues...

Chapter 2

----D...O...A----

"RING!"

Leifang's chemistry class ends and she leaves happily. She heads for her dorm room.

"It feels great to be back at college," Leifang thinks as she opens the door to her room. Leifang walks in and places her books on a desk. She sits in front of her laptop and boots it up. When the computer is booted up, she checks her e-mail.

"Hmm...junk mail...junk mail...a message from Jann...junk mail...jun- a message form Jann!" Leifang opens the e-mail and reads it with excitement.

Dear Leifang,

I won't be able to keep in touch with your for some time now. I have been asked to help a friend in need. My flight for Japan leaves tomorrow. I wish you the best of luck in your studies. Good bye.

Jann

"Japan? Jann thinks he can hide things from me," Leifang laughs. "He's going off to fight. I bet the next D.O.A tournament is in Japan and he didn't want me to know about! He's afraid that I might beat him! Well Janny ol'boy, I'm going to Japan also. And this time, I'll beat you for sure!"

----D...O...A---- the next day at Ryu Hayabusa's house in Japan

"Hello Ryu," Jann Lee says.

"Put your suitcases down," Ryu Hayabusa says. "Get into you fight clothes. We're needed now."

----D...O...A----

The final scene came to an end and happy viewers left the movie theater with smiles. Three of the viewers are still sitting in the theater, however. One is the lead actress in the movie, Tina. Accompanying her is her father, Bass Armstrong.

"Tina. Please continue your wrestling career! The life of an actress is not the life I want for you," Bass says.

"But it is the life I want for me!" Tina says. "Father...when will you accept this?"

"When you end this silly career! Your mother didn't want this for you either!"

"I don't care! Daddy! I'm good!" Tina says. "Have you seen the reviews my latest movie got? 'Fire Cracker is an exciting, action-packed movie!' 'Tina Armstrong is sensational!' 'The gut soars as the action in the movie takes you away!'"

"Yes, yes. I know," Bass says. "I read the reviews every day. I just want what's best for you!"

"This is best for me, daddy," Tina says. "Do you remember Hitomi? She's going to be co-starring with me in my next movie! And there is always a spot for you."

"For...me?"

"Yes, daddy. For you."

A voice from the far end of the theater cheers.

"Man-oh-man-oh-man! I just have to see that chick in person again!" Zack says as he jumps from his seat and walks towards the exit. He stops when he notices a beautiful blonde and a bulky man with a beard. "Tina? Is that you?"

"Zack? I haven't seen you since the last D.O.A tournament!" Tina jumps from her seat.

"You were stunning in that movie, babe! Absolutely stunning!" Zack smiles. Tina gives Zack a big hug. Bass grunts.

"Oh...hello Bass," Zack says.

"Hello smart-ass," Bass says. "You still have a big mouth."

"And you still have a big belly," Zack says rapidly.

"Lets go Tina," Bass stands up.

"Wait, daddy! I haven't seen Zack in so long. Lets take him out to lunch, huh?"

"Tiiinnnaa..." Bass moans.

"Please?"

"Oh...all right."
