Part 5- Road to destiny

Suddenly it all becomes clear. This is what I am meant for this is a sign the perfect opportunity all of my life has been waiting for this one moment. my ultimate revenge against all of them. Toshin for killing Baek and Jin for.damn him.

With my head down I entered Baek's Dojo. It made me sick to have to tell him. I wish I could say that I would have beaten Jin if the fight continued. honestly I have no idea. I had almost nothing left. I had never lost a fight, but this sure as hell felt like one. He started laughing at me when he saw me stroll in. He was laughing it up as he was kicking his punching bag. "So Mr. invinicible, lost huh? Well I thought it might happen. So what happened got the first nine guys but the last one snuck you from behind?" "..no. it was..one.guy." I could barely make out because of my embarrassment. He laughing stopped and he turned to me puzzled. "Your joking.right?" he started laughing again. "That's a good one don't scare me like that". I was lost in a fit of rage and kicked his bag so hard it flung him to the ground. "Your not kidding!? ..Who .who could have done it?" "It won't happen again!" "Who?" "This kid, some grandson of this big company." I just stared at the ground. He started laughing again. "YOU LOST TO SOME RICH KID!?!?" he was practically rolling on the floor. "Don't worry if I ever see that Jin Kazama again he will regret ever meeting me!" "WHAT!? ..Ka..zama!?" he said springing to his feet "Yea from that Mishima Zaibatsu, grandson of the Heihachi guy, you've heard of him.?" "No."

"You know something?" I asked puzzled. He sat down in he chair just sitting there. "Could it be... yes but why.she must have."

"Baek?" I asked. I thought he was going crazy or something "That boy you fought, he is the son of a Kazuya Mishima and Jun Kazama." "But I thought you hadn't heard of him?" "I hadn't. until now. you see I fought Kazuya in the king of the iron fist tournament 1."

"Oh yea that I heard something about you being in that what was it.?" Baek snickered "Ha, only the biggest martial arts tournament of all time. You should have seen me Hwoarang." Baek was just staring off into space. It was typical of him to just ponder on past experiences. I found that attribute of him weak. A true warrior would never think of the past. but the past just seems to haunt you sometimes. " Kazuya beat me. I. was distracted by a girl. She was in my thoughts during the fight. This journalist." "Jin's mother?" "Yes, Jun Kazama. I wondered what happened to her after the second tournament. Apparently she had a kid with him.DAMN IT HWOARANG WHY DID YOU HAVE TO LOSE TO HIS SON!" He surprised me with that one. I had never seen Baek this upset. It just added to the embarrassment. That day I had the most intense workout with Baek I had ever had in my life. I Trained hard everyday knowing it was just a matter of time that I got revenge for both him and me. For a whole month I pressed my body to the limit. I didn't have any time for my street hustling. One day I just walked into the headquarters. On the way a guy handed me some piece of paper. I didn't really pay attention to it I just put it in my pocket. When I got to the headquarters Ken was less then happy to see me. "And where the hell have you been?" I gave him the cold shoulder and walked right by. He was not the person I wanted to see. I walked on to see Jeff sparing with Sandy. This would be a welcomed treat; unfortunately I only caught the tail end. Jeff knocked her down with a sweeping kick. He saw me and got all excited. "Hwoarang! Did you see that I whooped her!" out of nowhere Jeff crashed to the floor. Sandy had kicked out his legs. "God, Hell hath no fury." I Almost died with laughter. That was the first time I had laughed since the tie. Keith came over not too happy at the sound of my laughter. "Hwoarang! Do you have any idea how much money you have cost me!?" he yelled. I didn't even look at him he wasn't worthy of eye contact with me. "God you know.if I cared I just might feel awful, lucky for me it really doesn't bother me.at all." "You good for nothing brat! Look at everything I did for you!? Because of me you have food and clothes!" "Ha you did nothing I couldn't do on my own. You are a washed up old fighter who needs little kids to do all his fighting for him!" "Why you son of a." I just had to interrupt for him to think that I could do nothing without him, well it was laughable" "Oh name calling." I stood up "Perhaps you would like to back up that talk?" "Ha Mr. Cocky, you think your invincible, you learn from a washed up old hack and you have the nerve to call me a has been." "Yes, I heard you fought Baek. now my memory is kinda fuzzy. who won?" "SHUT UP! I DESERVERD THAT SHOT! I COULD HAVE BEEN KING OF THE IRON FIST!!!" wow he was getting pretty moody. Somebody would have to put him in his place. I wonder who does it. "Yea, yea shut up and hands up and lets see what you got." I wanted to make quick work of him. I came right at him and gave him a body shot with my left foot doubling him over. He got up holding his stomach. He lunged at me with a left hand, which I simply ducked. I came up with a Tsunami kick again, knocking him to the ground. Just then the other event happened that changed my life. Steve rushed into the building and shouted "Hwoarang! Baek's dojo is under attack!" Keith got up and started laughing. "Waha go and flee our fight! You had no chance anyway!" I just jumped up and smacked his head with my foot he was out like alight before he hit the ground. With that I ran you out the door. Nothing could stop me from getting there; I knocked a good three people over on my way. I was running as fast as my legs would go. From the start I had a bad feeling about all of this. I saw the dojo from a distance. I could see one window just completely shattered. I ran inside, Baek was nowhere to be seen but Chang's body was on the floor, Blood dripping down his mouth. I went over to him "Where is he? Who did this!?" I screamed at Baek. Chang didn't have much energy left he simply said "Hwoarang..Baek...Toshin.." With that Chang passed out at the time I though he was dead but he was just exhausted. So this was this God of fight that everyone had been so scared of. His power must be unbelievable if he could have taken on everyone in the dojo. I knew in my heart right then that Baek was dead. and some creature had killed him. I had always taken it as just some tabloid. They said he would go after the best so Baek obviously was near the top of the list. I just sat down not knowing what to do when I got a sign. I reached into my pocket at the sheet the man handed me earlier. It was an open invitation to compete in the King Of Iron Fist 3 tournament and it was even sponsored by the Mishima Zaibatsu! I knew what this meant Jin would be there. If this is where all the great fighters of the world will be then that Toshin wouldn't be far behind. It was perfect.

Now as I stare at his grave, my mission is clear. I will enter the king of iron fist 3 tournament, defeat Jin, and find this Toshin. Everything will be set right by my hand. I have the power and there is no one who can defeat me! Watch out Kazama, Toshin, Hwoarang has just entered the King of the Iron Fist Tournament!
