The Shinobi Saga
Of Renewed Causes
by Zedrick
The winds blew harshly, carrying Ryu across the vast countryside of Japan.
His mind, as well as his body was fatigued from his relentless search.
"Where could you be?" whispered Ryu. He took out the note and read it over again.
"Hmm...Fame Douglas, how could he possibly know of the ninja clans? And how did he know
about me? If this man knows about the clans, then he jeapordizes our entire society."
The next day Ryu found himself in a town on the countryside. He had matched his attire with that
of the others in order to remain unnoticed. He wandered up to a small shop selling some simple electronics.
There was a T.V. on display, and the commercial on it caught his attention. On it was a man being surrounded
by a mass of people with camera's and microphones.
"Mr. Douglas, could you please elaborate on why you chose to open this tournament?" asked one of the reporters.
"Well-" Mr. Douglas began.
"And why did you choose the name 'Dead or Alive' ?" interrupted another reporter.
Ryu jumped at the question.
"Excuse me, but do you know where this is?" Ryu asked the owner, pointing to the screen.
"It's in America." the man replied.
"Thank you." said Ryu as he began to walk away.
"America." said Ryu to himself, now in his shinobi garb. "Quite a distance. Kasumi must be there also.
Very well then. Hayate, I shall keep my promise."
Afterwards, Ryu began to trek back to the territory of the Hayabusa clan. He was greeted by an old friend of
his, Kojiro.
"What brings you back, Hayabusa?" asked Kojiro.
"I need to speak with the elder." answered Ryu.
"Hmm, how odd. He was expecting you. Go to his chambers then." replied Kojiro.
"He was expecting me?" asked Ryu. Kojiro just nodded. Then he disappeared.
"Ryu, I see you have decided to fight once more." said the elser as Ryu walked in.
"Greetings elder, I have come to ask for your assistance." greeted Ryu.
"And I in turn have need of yours." replied the elder.
"What?!" exclaimed Ryu.
"A Tengu has made its way into this realm." sighed the elder.
"A Tengu? But how?" asked Ryu.
"I do not know. But it is a very dangerous one. Though the Tengu are indeed our allies, they do it
because they are in a different realm, and thus require our assistance in some matters. It is a mutual
relationship, you see. However, when a Tengu has made its way onto our realm, it no longer needs our aid.
It's power is great, and it seeks it's own goals, whatever it may be. I know you can see the danger in this.
And that is why I ask you to once again, venture forth, and protect this realm. I know that this is much to
ask." explained the elder.
"Do you know where the spirit resides?" asked Ryu.
"Using our resources, we have determined that it has manifested itself in a foreign land, America." answered
the elder.
"America? Very well, I shall do it. Though it is a strange coincidence, seeing as how I had intended to travel
to America anyways." replied Ryu.
"Then destiny works to both our advantages." said the elder.
"But how will I get there?" asked Ryu.
"Kojiro will tell you, he is the one that has been monitering the outside world." replied the elder.
"Very well." said Ryu.
Two days later.....
Ryu was standing atop a high building, gazing into the urban jungle of New York.
-----Author's Note-----
Okay, that was really short, but I just wanted to set the stage for Ryu. A couple of notes :
- I am planning to expand the storyline outside of Tecmo's crappy script. So, I am going to be putting in alot
more made up events around the timescape of DOA2. Otherwise, it would just be Ryu finding Kasumi, Ryu finding
Hayate, and then Ryu destroying the Tengu. Boring, no?
- I am going to work on the Hayate's scenario next, using what little information I have.
- I never said that Irene died. I said that Ryu couldn't bring her back.
- There are two things that I regret having overlooked though. I forgot to make Ryu own a curio shop, and I
forgot the fact that Aileen/Irene is still a present character in the DOA series.
-I just made Irene/Aileen unpresent to set up the KasumiXRyu.
-I just might revise the whole damn story overall.
-Speaking of Irene, do you want a RyuXKasumi or a RyuXIrene (which puts Kasumi somewhere else)?
-Oh, and thanks for reading.
