Chapter 2
Dionne was fighting with a nurse. She had been in the hospital since last night. They had to remove the bullet from her chest. It hurt during the night, but now she felt fine. She had put on a pair of denim shorts, a navy halter, and sneakers. She put her short hair up in a ponytail. The doctors were yelling at her to sit down. They tried to inject her with a needle to put her to sleep, but she fought, and fought. Suddenly, a couple of guys walked up. They looked around Dionne's age. One of them was tall and muscular with dark eyes, and silky hair. The other was also tall and muscular, yet he had striking green eyes, and honey blonde hair. It was spiked slightly, since it was so short. The one with ebony eyes looked at Dionne, and grinned.
"Excuse me, doc. I'll take it from here," reasoned Jin. The doctors walked off, very frustrated.
"Now, little lady, what would your problem be?" asked Jin flirtatiously.
"Don't patronize me," she warned. Jin opened his mouth in false awe, but Ken elbowed him in the stomach.
"Ow!" he compained. He saw how Ken looked at this girl.
"I'll go get us some decaf," he said softly.
"I don't drink American coffee. It tastes like chalk," she said, stalking off to her room. Ken followed her. Jin went off to go get his coffee.
"What do you want?" she asked wearily.
"I'm Ken. I want to help you," he replied, extending his hand to Dionne.
She glared at his hand, then at him. She saw a hint of kindness in his eyes.but I don't want to let go of my security.
"Ok, can I get you anything?" Ken attempted. He fell in instantaneous love. Her piercing black eyes reminded him of those of his deceased mother. Her short jet black hair made her look cute. The red tips made her look like a punk. The nose piercing shone on her button nose. She had a figure men would die for, and women would kill for.
"Depends, what do you have to offer?" she asked lowly, her voice on the verge of seduction.
Ken thought for a moment, trying to remember a line Jin had taught him, "I've got everything. What can you handle?" he asked, watching her lips quirk into a grin. They were naturally sunset pinks.
"That the best you got?" she asked, trying to supress her laughter.
Ken frowned, "Yeah, I guess so,"
She laughed, "Hm. I'm Dionne," she said, allowing her defenses to go down.
Jin walked in, and interrupted the magic. Dionne frowned. She leaned back on the bed, and winced.
"You never told me what happened, Ms.."
"Dionne. No miss, just Dionne," she finished for him.
"Well," she began, flashing back to last night, "my gang and I were waiting for another gang. When they finally came, we beat the shit out of them. One of them got mad, and shot me. That's how I wound up in this shit whole, looking at you two dorks," she explained sarcastically. Jin chuckled.
"My kind of woman." he muttered. Dionne eyed him, and snorted. She layed down, and Ken smiled.
"Need anything, Dionne?" he asked her.
"I'll pass for now, blondie,"
Ken chuckled, and winked, "Call me if you need anything."
Ken and Jin walked out. Jin elbowed his cousin.
"You like her," he teased. Ken smiled, and walked off.

Felix was head of the gang in Dionne's absence. They had organized a few crack smugling missions to occupy themselves while Dionne wasn't there. Everyone was worried about her.
"I hope she's alright," muttered Drew. He was Dionne's pet. She absolutely adored him. Then came Nokio, Seth, and then Derek. Naturally, she adored, absolutely adored Felix, considering she was her sister.
"I'm sure she's fine, you damn worry wart," joked Felix. She smiled at Drew, but he looked at her seriously and went back to counting their money.
"So what's for dinner?" asked Nokio.
"Anything.as usual. We've got $200 each," said Drew, leafing through it once more. He divided it into five shares.
"What about Dionne?" asked Derek quietly.
"Yeah, what about her?" persisted Seth.
"What about her? She's probably in bed with some rich Jap as we speak!" yelled Felix. Everyone looked at her.
"Hey! What? You know its true," she muttered lowly.
The guys looked at each other, and then continued planning.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Ken had been helping elderly folks all day, and he didn't think his ears could take it anymore. Jin was lucky enough to get the young, healthy girls who were at a nice child bearing age, Like Dionne. Dionne? he thought, trying to snap his head out of such stupid thoughts. She suddenly walked in front of him.
"How many times do I have to hit the fucking button before you come?" she complained.
"Sorry. Jin is on your post. Not me," he said sweetly.
"Uh-huh," muttered Dionne skeptically. She winced when she turned her shoulder. He picked her up, and carried her to her bed. If it was any girl he could have, it would definitely be Dionne.
"Now," he started, "is there anything I can do for you?" he asked placing her on the bed.
She picked up a black book. "Read," she commanded, not minding his method of getting her back in bed. In fact, she felt she could get used to it. He took the book obediently. He opened it and looked at it funny.
"What?" Dionne muttered.
"You like Shakespeare?"
"Yeah, what's wrong with that?" she demanded.
Ken shook his head, "Nothing. I love Shakespeare,"
"Oh," Dionne said softly, she laid back, "Begin,"
Ken obediently began reading a love sonnet. He noticed Dionne's eyes closed. He smiled, put the book on her bed, and left.

Lee watched Fay wash the dishes as she began cleaning stuff off the table. He kept watching her and noticed that her hands were shaking, "Fay, honey. You okay?" he asked. Taking her hands, "You're shaking like mad,"
"I'm fine," she stated as she finished with the dishes.
He grabbed her wrists, "No! You're not fine," leading her to the living room, "Something's bothering you,"
"Nothing's bothering me," she said in an unconvincing voice.
Lee gave her a stern look. "Tell me," he urged.
"I'm fine," she stood up, "really,"
Lee sighed and began shaking her, "What the hell's wrong with you?" he demanded.
She pushed him away, "Well, if you must know," she almost yelled. "Your son hates me," she said bluntly, "And I'm trying, Lee. God I'm trying, but he refuses to do anything with me, and I don't think I can take any of his horrible remarks anymore," she finished then she buried her head in her hands and sat down on the couch.
Lee hugged her tightly, "He'll come through," he told her reassuringly.
"You've been saying that for the last 6 months,"
He looked at her and remained quiet.
Fay began to cry softly. Lee hugged her.
"Let's make a deal. I say he comes around, or he goes out. Would that make you happy?" he asked, pulling a strand of her hair away from her eyes. Fay nodded.
"Go ahead," he said, releasing her. She walked to the kitchen, and started the water. Lee lounged on the sofa, when a car pulled in the driveway. He looked out the window, and saw a dark green Suzuki V6 Viatra.
"He's home, sweetheart," called Lee. He clicked on the tv, and began to channel surf. Ken and Jin walked in.
"Yo! Pops, I'm home!" called Jin loudly.
"Are you trying to scream the fucking house down, Jin?" yelled back Kazuya. Jin chuckled, and headed upstairs.
"Hey, Lee," he called when he was half way up. Fay looked up for a moment at Lee, and resumed with her cooking.
"Hi dad," said Ken softly. He sank on the sofa.
"Hey, Fay," he called to her in the kitchen.
"Hi, sweety," she replied.
"Ken. Here's the deal. Straighten up and fly right, or you're out of here," stated Lee cooly. Ken rolled his eyes, and leaned back into the sofa.
"Fine. Whatever," he muttered, closing his eyes, knowing arguing would get him nowhere. He began to think of Dionne. He smiled.
"I'm assuming you've had a good day. I haven't seen you smile like that since your mother died," teased Lee.
Ken just smiled at his dad.
"Perhaps," he finally answered.
"Fay! Ken's got a girlfriend!" Lee said in a childish voice. Ken punched his dad playfully. Lee laughed, and started to watch tv again.
"Well?" asked Lee, with his eyes still on the tv.
"I met a girl. She's not my girlfriend," answered Ken.
"What she like?" asked Lee curiously.
"Looks exactly, exactly like mom. She acts like Jin, though. I think she likes me too," he said, dozing off into space.
"Sounds pretty good," approved Lee.
A few moments of silence passed, with the distant humming of the dish water.
"What was she there for?" Lee asked finally.
"Bullet wound. She was in a gang fight, and she was shot because the other gang was a bunch of sore losers," he muttered. Lee frowned. Ken got up, and headed to the kitchen. He grabbed a coke.
"Want one, dad?" he asked, closing the door until Lee answered.
Lee was lost in thought.
"Dad?" persisted Ken.
"Oh. Sure, whatever," he muttered. Ken tossed it to him. Lee caught it, and popped the top.
"Thanks, kid," he muttered as he gulped his coke.
"Don't toss that! It might break something!" complained Fay. Ken just burped rudely.
"Alright," he muttered. Lee shot Ken a lethal stare. Ken just ran upstairs.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Kazuya was extremely pissed off at Jin. Being a delinquant was alright, but influencing someone else's kid was quite another.
"Jin Mishima."started Kazuya. Jin looked up from his WWF magazine.
"Yeah, pops?" he asked.
"I don't like the effect you've had on Ken. He's usually a great kid, but now, he's just been changing. I think he's spending too much time with you," stated Kazuya bluntly.
"He's my cousin! We live in the same house, and we feel like brothers. I partially reaised that kid, you know that, right?" yelled Jin. Kazuya folded his arms.
"Look, Jin. I don't care what you think. In fact, you better clean up your act, or spend some time with your friend.Charlie or whatever," Said Kazuya, walking off. Jin sighed, and went back to his magazine. Ken came in, and jumped on top of him. Jin cried out frustratedly. Ken arched a brown.
"What?" he muttered.
"You just ripped my Trish Stratus poster!" screamed Jin angrily. Ken grinned sheepishly, and Jin grabbed him in a headlock and gave him a noogie. Jun passed by, and cleared her throat. The boys looked up, and stopped.
"You all right, Kenny?" asked Jin, tugging on his shirt.
"Yeah, fine," replied Ken cooly, smacking Jin's hand away. Jun smiled, and walked away.
"But you're going to have to pay me for that poster," teased Jin. Ken chuckled, and fell on the bed.
"Still thinking about Dionne?" he asked. Ken's eyes shot open, and he just paled a bit.
"Maybe," he said with a smile.
"Why don't you ask her out or something?" teased Jin. Ken looked horrified.
"No!" he shouted, getting red.
"Why not? Afraid she might say no?" asked Jin. Ken turned crimson.
"Aha. Just as I thought. Look, kid. You have to loosen up! Don't be afraid! Just ask her. I mean, the worst thing she can do is say 'no'. Big deal!" said Jin, trying to boost Ken's confidence. Ken smiled.
"Fine. I'll ask her out tomorrow," he muttered, dozing off. Jin smiled, and walked out.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
"Why in the hell is Dionne taking so long to come back?" muttered Seth. He and Drew were keeping watch for any cops.
"I bet they saw her record," whispered Derek, as he passed Felix the tools to tie the cord onto the barbed wire.
"Very funny. I'm worried. I think we should detour to Japan," said Nokio.
"He's right. Di would never take this long, no matter how many Japs she bedded," agreed Drew, answering loud enough for Felix to hear. She just tightened the cord around the barbed wire.
"Just shut up and keep cutting," she complained.
"Dionne is your sister. Why are you being such a bitch?" demanded Seth angrily. Felix slammed him against the fence, causing the electricity to jolt through his body. Seth fell to the ground, with a grunt. Everyone except Felix froze.
"What the." said Drew, with his eyes opened in sheer terror.
"Murdering son of a." Nokio couldn't even finish. Although all of the gang members were close, Nokio and Seth were tighter than all of them. Felix looked up at him, with no sign of remorse in her eyes.
"Yes?" she asked, putting her hands on her hips.
"You killed him!" shouted Drew with an angry look of accusation.
"Your point being? And by the way, keep it down. The cops will hear us," she scolded, returning to her wires. Nokio, Drew, and Derek looked at each other.
"And you three don't even think of running to the cops. I see without seeing, I hear without hearing. I am everywhere," she stated evilly. The other three were stunned. Felix jiggled the cord a bit more.
"Ah fuck it. Let's go," she commanded. The boys followed her, and seriously considered going to the cops. On the way back, Nokio could barely hold back his tears. Bye, Seth. He thought sadly.

Dionne was seriously getting very aggrivated with her hospital bed.
"I want out." she mumbled to herself.
"I can arange that," said Ken, stepping into her room. She looked up at him, and smiled.
"Can you now?" she asked, folding her arms.
"Yeah. I can work something out, if you go with me," he stated slyly.
"I was afraid of that," joked Dionne. Ken smiled. He wanted to kiss her. He looked into her eyes for a moment, and chose not to, just yet.
"So where to, oh handsome knight in shining armor?" she asked.
"How about Dario's?"
"Why not. I try anything at least once," she said, getting out of the bed.
"Anything?" urged Ken mischeviously.
"Except what you're thinking right now," she said, after putting on her clothes. She looked adorable in her sky blue dress. It was hard to believe she was a gang leader.
Ken snapped his fingers. "Damnit," he uttered a frustrated cry. Dionne winked at him, and led him outside.
"You're pretty cute, Kenny," she teased, pulling on his shirt.
"Really?" he asked nonchalantly. He moved his hand through his hair. Dionne grinned.
"I wonder how my gang's doing." Dionne thought absently. Ken looked at her.
"Dionne. I've got a question for you," he said, trying to put her on a good note before he asked her this question.
"Yeah, Kenny boy?" she asked. Ken tensed up.
"What kind of toppings do you like on your pizza?" he finally asked.
Dionne arched a brow, but then gave a look that said 'whatever'.
"I like pepperoni, and extra cheese."
Ken nodded.
I wonder what he wanted to tell me.
