Chapter Four: Ryu vs. Mike
Ryu's bus was very hot, and the ride was long. The trip lasted two days, five hours, and forty minutes. Quite a long ride on a bus. Thankfully, besides the heat, the ride was comfortable, with a few televisions showing movies, and a bathroom at the back of the bus. The ride began in Sacramento, California, passed through Nevada, stopping at Reno, through Utah, stopping at Salt Lake City, through Wyoming with one stop at a rest area, and into South Dakota, finishing the trip at Mount Rushmore.
Ryu was to fight Mike, the former Heavyweight Boxing Champion. Mike was kicked out of boxing because he killed someone in the ring. Mike had joined the Street Fighter tournament to win money and make a living. He was black, with black hair, about four inches taller than Ryu, wore a short-sleeved red shirt, and wrapped his hands rather than using boxing gloves, obviously to inflict more pain. Mike wore an orange belt, blue jeans, and white-and-red sneakers. The battleground was, of course, quite scenic, because of Mount Rushmore.
There was to be a three hour rest before the fight. Ryu took this time to work on blocking, and chi-breathing exercises. Mike took this time to get himself psyched up. Before long, "ROUND 1," said the referee. Ryu walked to the center of the ring, and Mike hopped. "FIGHT!" shouted the referee. Mike hopped forward and back, waiting for the opportunity to use his stength. Ryu, however, studied the way Mike moved. It was a rather timid movement. Before long, Ryu began to formulate a plan. Mike eventually walked in, but Ryu ducked down and delivered a Crouching Jab, a quick punch to the midsection. Mike began to punch rapidly, some of them powerful Straight Punches, but Ryu, still crouching, blocked them all. Mike didn't inflict any damage on Ryu whatsoever, and before long, the time ran out. "TIME UP!" shouted the referee. "RYU WON THE 1ST ROUND," said the referee. Mike was bewildered.
"All right!" shouted Ryu, raising his arm in victory. Mike towled himself down, and Ryu took a few sips of water.
"ROUND 2," said the referee. Both fighters made their way to the center of the ring. "FIGHT!"
Mike landed a Jab to Ryu's face. It didn't hurt too much, but Mike began to chain two together, and soon he added a Low Hook to the combination, defeating Ryu quite shortly. Ryu only managed to land a Shoryuken before being knocked out. "ENEMY WON THE 2ND ROUND," said the referee. "Ha ha ha. . . .I'm *sorry*!!" Mike yelled sarcastically, raising his left arm in victory.
Ryu's nervousness began to rise, as the next round would decide who advanced.
"ROUND 3," said the referee. Both fighters prepared to finish the fight. "FIGHT!"
Ryu landed the first blow, a Hadouken, which sent Mike flying back. Mike stood back up, delivering a High Hook, while yelling "Grr-YAH!!" which was less powerful than the Hadouken. Ryu retaliated with a Shoryuken, hitting Mike three times, knocking him out.
"All right!" Ryu shouted, raising his right arm in victory.
"RYU WON THE 3RD ROUND," said the referee. "RYU WON THE FIGHT OVER ENEMY."
Mike, with a bruised left eye from the Hadouken, and a bloody lip from the Shoryuken, came over to Ryu, and said the traditional Street Fighter congratulations, "WHAT STRENGTH!! BUT DON'T FORGET THERE ARE MANY GUYS LIKE YOU ALL OVER THE WORLD."
Ryu went back to a hotel room in preparation for the next day, in which he would attempt to win some money.
