Disclaimer: don't own Tekken or any of its characters
I think I've rewritten the prologue at least 5 times and not been satisfied with it, but since the last chapter was just too strange I think I really just have to reload it. The ending made my character seem pycho so if you already read it before just read the last part. Another thing I didn't like with this story was the title so I've reloaded it. If any of you wonders this is like ten years before the 4th tournament. Ohh one more thing and I'll stop bugging you, please remember to review.
Prologue: Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
The tears inside me ache for release.
These hurt and scared feelings inside longs for isolation,
So they one day can seek upon revenge and tear me down.

The two children were sitting up in their beds watching TV silently. They were watching what used to be their favorite program, but it didn't seem to matter much as the sad expression on their faces refused to disappear no matter how much they wanted or wished to.
Mum's been gone for a month now hasn't she? Rei said with a pale and numb expression on her face.
Think so, the redheaded answered her with a weak whisper.
The silence continued as the two was sitting up stiffly not moving a muscle and barely breathed. A.J was the first one to go to sleep and pull the sheets over himself shutting out the sound of the agony in his head. He dug his head into his pillow not wanting his sister to see how weak he had became, how the tears where sliding down his face. It wouldn't stop his pillow was entirely soaked with tears and he felt the taste of them in his mouth. He pulled down the sheets slightly when he heard that the sound of the TV stopped. Rei pulled her legs towards her body not making a sound. She was so numb and cold nowadays, she wasn't the same person that he had grown up with, the one he used to play and talk with.
Rei suddenly sighed and her numb expression started to fade away as a smile appeared on her face.
When I get better, promise me that the first place we will go to is the arcade! She said cheerfully in a way that somewhat soothed A.J's aching.
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
Why are you not laughing now when you see what I've become?
Get caught up with the tide It's already too late to sympathize and regret,
This was the way you wanted from the start You're lying if you tell me else
Because this isn't an ache of a broken heart,
This is the cry of an abandoned child.
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
NO!! LET ME GO! LET ME GO!
Heihachi was watching how the young boy was struggling trying to tangle himself out of the men's hold. His screams were hysterical and shrieked through Heihachi's ears, making the situation even worse than it already was.
Heihachi approached the boy making him somewhat silent, his eyes were reflecting a confused mix of hatred and fear. Heihachi grinned, and bent down to get to the boy's level of height.
If you do this for me, A.J I'll promise you that I'll bring back your mother for you and your sister.
A.J was watched him skeptical trying to push his doubts away.
You promise?
Heihachi nodded his head, grinning. Obviously this little fellow didn't know that promises didn't mean much to him. Only a couple of letters put together randomly was all it was to him. He watched the boy as his head turned towards the floor, deciding what he should do. Not long after A.J returned his gaze and nodded smiling a weak smile before getting carried away by the men.
Marie watched outside the window, she sighed sadly returning her eyes to the small pale child, putting her hand on her forehead checking the temperature. She was still very hot, which was the reason that she couldn't stay conscious for long even when she gained it. Her fever had been persistent in over a month, and although it didn't get worse it didn't get better either.
Where's A.J? she whispered with a hoarse voice trying to strain her eyes open.
He's not here right now, sweetie. Marie said trying to keep her voice as neutral as possible not wanting the girl to know what had just happened.
Rei fluttered her eyes slowly, she didn't believe a word that Marie was saying, she already knew he was gone. Because every day and time she had woken up her brother always stayed by her side. Not just because he wanted to protect her, because she knew he was just as sad and miserable as her. He was only seeking comfort from her, since he never had felt so alone and abandon before. She hadn't either, but it felt like a part of her was born to handle this feeling since it felt so recognizable.
She closed her eyes pretended to be asleep until she heard that Marie had locked her door shut. The sheets surrounding her was pushed away she and felt a coldness rush through her. The amount of weakness in her body was felt and she could almost feel how she was slowly fainting. She headed quickly over to the door opening it and smiled briefly as she removed the gum that was placed on the lock so it was impossible to lock.
Heihachi was still standing at the same spot as before the boy and his men had left the room. Still smiling at his victory. A cold chill was sending through his spine like someone was glaring at him with intentions to kill. He slowly turned around to see Rei standing by the door, with a numb and blank expression that even frightened him from time to time. Only a month ago this girl was the most lively thing he'd ever seen, something that annoyed him tremendously.
You're wondering where your mother is right?
Rei didn't respond and the numb expression on her face began to turn into hatred and anger, reflecting a side that Heihachi enjoyed much to see.
Do you even know who your mother is? He said mockingly examining the girl's eyes with his own harshly.
She's not the gentle woman that holds you in her warm embrace.
Just give me back my brother, she shrieked at him angrily forgetting about the pain her body was experiencing.
I can't give you something that you don't deserve.
Upon saying this Heihachi received an angry and bitter glare. The moment the two shared was broken off when Marie stomped in worryingly already noticing that Rei had gone from her room. She didn't even take any further notice that Heihachi was standing there and just grabbed Rei by the wrist dragging her back to her room.
What the hell where you thinking at, rushing off like that, you're already sick do you have to make it even worse? Marie lectured frustrated.
Rei walked back into her room involuntarily, limb and tired as her head felt dizzy and nauseous. Tears where stuck in her throat making it hard to breathe or move. It gave a sting to her already soar eyes and she just wanted her whole existence to fade away.
Does it even matter anyways, I'm just a motherless child, she whispered sadly.
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
Born into happiness only to watch it being ripped away
Sometimes it feels like it's so close at hand,
Soon to be over soon to be regain, like my release is so near
But I stop to see that there's a long way from home.
And sometimes I feel like a motherless child.
