Disclaimer: I don't own these characters, Namco does!!!
Ling Xiaoyu walked into Heihachi's gargantuan pristine office. She looked around at all the files that were stacked neatly on his desk. She took small steps toward his desk and took a deep breath.
"Is there something you'd like to speak to me about?" She asked lightly. Heihachi turned his seat around to face her, giving her his full attention.
"Actually, there is my dear. Please have a seat." He gestured her to sit. She was a little bit uneasy at first. Seeing Heihachi in person was definitely something to fear. She sat down on the chair across from him, folding her hands neatly on her lap. "Are you comfortable?" He asked. She nodded her head and took deep breaths. "Good, good. Xiaoyu, do you remember my grandson?" What kind of question was? Of course she remembers him, she can't keep her mind off of him.
"Yes sir." She answered. His eyes were cold and his evil glare grew more sinister with every word.
"Well then, do you remember him saying where he was going?" He asked coldly. Xiaoyu remembered her last encounter with Jin; he was with Heihachi. She took some time to think about it. Then, with much confidence she answered,
"No sir. He never told me. But from what I can recall, wasn't Jin with you when he disappeared?" She quickly stopped herself in her tracks. Now she had done it! She had accused Heihachi of being responsible for Jin's disappearance. Her breath quickened as she saw the hideously evil smirk plastered on his face.
"Yes he was. But you see, right after the battle, Jin left, not telling anyone where he was going." Xiaoyu didn't know whether to believe him or not. She had never been double-crossed by him and felt no reason to distrust him. She nodded, showing that she approved of his answer.
"Is that all?" She asked. He went from his seductive smile, to a nice, calm, warm expression.
"Yes miss Xiaoyu, that's all." She sighed and got out of the chair, bowing her head reverently before she left. As soon as she shut the door, she made a twisted face.
"That man gives me the creeps!" She exclaimed. She shook off the negative vibes that flowed through her body and left for her room. She plopped down on her bed and noticed the screen on her computer. A message popped up reading '1 new message(s).' "I didn't know I was still logged on." She stated. She shrugged her shoulders, forgetting about it, and sat at her desk. Grabbing her mouse with her right hand, she opened the mailbox and scrolled down to see whom the sender was. She saw the new message in bold type letters, but there was no sender. She felt utterly confused. She read the subject. "Open, Very Urgent. What could that mean?" She asked herself. She double clicked it and read the message aloud.
"To Ling Xiaoyu,
Please be careful. Do not let Heihachi Mishima take advantage of you, and do not let your guard down for one second. I believe that he has something up his sleeve. I am warning you because you are my friend and I don't want to see you hurt. Take care, signed, your guardian Angel." She was speechless. That letter had left her heart broken somehow. Just knowing that someone had cared about her was enough to bring a tear to her eye. Now she knew that Heihachi was up to something. No one would just send her a warning if they didn't feel that it was important. She replied to the message, hoping to get some answers. As she logged off, she wondered, just a little, on who the sender could be. Maybe...just maybe, it was Jin. Oh how wonderful it would be to find him, to know that he cared for her. She closed her eyes, inhaled deeply, and put her hands on her heart. "Oh how I hope its Jin!" She said longingly. "With that letter, I would know how deeply he cares for me, as I care for him." That very thought perked her spirit up. She spread her arms out, and twirled on foot. She laughed heavily and fell back on her bed, exhaling all the air she took in. She looked on the small nightstand and saw a small ring. She picked up the ring and placed it on the silver chain around her neck. "I remember when Jin gave this to me." She whispered. She gazed intriguingly at the pale white ceiling, reminiscing the past she will always keep in her heart.*~*~*~*~*~*
"Jin, I'm a little scared." Said the sixteen yearold Xiaoyu. Her hair was in two small pigtails at the side of her head. She was at Jin's bedside, peeking over the covers, looking into his deep chocolate colored eyes. She sat on the floor, her legs tucked neatly under her as she rocked his shoulder back and forth, awaking him from his peaceful slumber.
"What's wrong Xiaoyu?" Jin asked. She hid her face in his covers, snuggling up to the mattress.
"I'm a little bit scared. This is the first time I've been away from home for so long, especially living with strangers, no offense." She said shyly. Jin could see how truly young she was at heart.
"Ah, I see. A case of homesickness." He said softly, sitting up in bed. He let the sheets fall off of his masculine body, revealing his DROP-DEAD gorgeous figure. She stared at him in awe, but she quickly averted her eyes as she blushed.
"Yeah, maybe." She said quietly. "But I don't think it's because I miss my family. Everyone left me alone when I was young. No one ever loved me." She could feel the tears welling up inside her.
"That's not true Xiaoyu, I bet your parents loved you very much." He stated. She crossed her arms and tore her gaze away from him. She knew that his intentions were good, but he didn't know the half of her terrible experience. He saw her pain stricken eyes and smiled, wiping her tears from her cheek. He grabbed her by her arms and lifted her on top of his bed. She was shocked at his act of kindness.
"No. You really don't understand. They never truly loved me. They let me come here, despite the dangers, and never tried to stop me! They didn't even know I was gone, and I bet they still don't. And you know what, I don't care!" She tried to hold the onrush of her tears back, but the pain in her heart was too grave. She burst out in tears and landed on his chest. He wrapped his arms around her and gently stroked her hair. She felt the warmth of his body and couldn't believe how safe she felt in his embrace.
"Xiao," He whispered. His voice was calm and soothing. She lifted her sad teary-eyed face to him. "I told you that you were wrong about no one loving you." She tried to smile at him, but she was drowned in sorrow. She lowered her head and spoke in a low tone.
"Ho would you know? You were never around for me." Though her voice was lowly and sorrowful, her tone was angry. Jin simply smiled, patting her head.
"You're right. I was never around for you." He said in the gentlest way. He lifted her chin up with his forefinger and thumb, letting her gaze rest in his eyes. "But I'm here for you now, aren't I?" Her sad brown eyes widened with extreme surprise. Her heart was almost filled with content. "And you are in the arms of someone who loves you now." She smiled and wrapped her arms tightly around his waist.
"Thank you." She whispered. She knew that he meant "love" in a friendly way. Jin could not truly love her, not yet. She nestled her head against his bare chest, listening to the subtle beating of his heart. He slowly moved his hands from her shoulders, down to her hands, gently stroking her soft, smooth skin as he went along, sending a tickling sensation down her entire body, causing the temperature in her cheeks to rise. He placed a ring gently on her finger. She looked at the sparkling beauty in awe. "What's this for?" She asked.
"Hold it up towards the window." She walked towards the window and held her hand up high. The tiny diamonds in the ring sparkled like the celestial beauties in the sky.
"It's beautiful!" She exclaimed. The diamonds sparkled with the light of the moon and gleamed off her glossy eyes like glass.
"This belonged to my mother, and now I'm giving it to you." He walked up to her and wrapped his arms around her shoulder. "Whenever I think about my mother, I wear this ring. So whenever you get homesick, you will have this ring to remind you of the things you miss."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
She stopped thinking about him. 'Come on Xiao, pull yourself together.' She told herself. She pulled out some blank paper, a pencil, and began to draw.
An evil laughter came from Heihachi's office. He looked through some files and found that his son was still alive. "I shall call upon the King Of Iron Fist Tournament to lure him out. He took his gaze off of the files and reclined on the back of his chair. "And Miss Xiaoyu will be a big hand in this plan. Jin will come back when he sees his precious friend screaming out in pain. He walked to the door in his office, keeping his hand steady on the switch. "Either way, she'll end up the same..." He pushed the switch down, shutting off the lights. "DEAD."
Kotou: WOAH!!!! THAT WAS A LONG TIME!!! GOMEN!! I just got wrapped up in all of my other worries and fics that this one was sulking in my room somewhere. Oh yes, this fic has two alternate endings. It seemed that a lot of people hated the first ending, and only one of my friends, Raika, liked the original ending. So I will write both endings, K?
Jai Ne!!!!
