Chapter4
The Message


Chung Li was in her apartment. Her heart was torn and her tears shedded all over her pillow. *Hiccup* She slowly put her face up toward the wall. "Ryu....." she cried out. *Hiccup* "Where Did I go wrong?" she thought. "I've been spending so much time with Charlie in our missions and I never got to tell him how i felt. I'm *hiccup* so stupid!" She stuffed her face more into the pillow.

She was in her pajamas. "..........." she thought to herself. "S-Sakura and Ryu. It's not right. Its all my fault. I knew that Ryu had feelings for me yet I just ignored all of it because I thought My missions were more important.

[flashback]


"You chose her over me?"

He then took his attention to Charlie. Then back to her.

Sakura was waiting for his answer.

"Yes." he said.

Her eyes widened. She was in shock.

Sakura was also stunned. "Ryu...." she murmed to herself. This was the best day of her life.

"RYU, you don't mean it do you?" she asked.

"Your a punk you know!" Charlie pulled his fist back and then tried Shoving it toward Ryu's face.

Ken and Karin then made their appearance. Ken stopped the fist coming to Ryu. "If you're going through him, you're going through me too." said Ken.

"Let's just go Charlie." she said.

"We'll meet up in the tournament later." said Charlie.

They both walked away then Chung Li turned around. "Ryu....." she glanced at him.

Ryu was a little older than Chung Li. They were in love once. But now it was different. He looked at her. "I'll see you in the tournament."

A tear then fell of her eyes. "RYU! Don't you remember anything about us in Street fighter?" she asked.

He looked down.

"Hey! What the hell are you doing? If you couldn't notice that your a whore then you should realized it."

Her eyes widened. "What did you just say!?"

"A whore! A tart! A slut!" she said.

Chung Li became immediatly pissed. "I'll show you!!" She ran toward Sakura.

Ryu pulled her back and protected her.

Chung Li stopped. "Ryu..."

"Leave us." he said coldly.

"B-But..." she said.

Charlie then ran in front Chung Li and jumped directly at Ryu. "Why you!!"

*SHORYUU REPPA* Ken did a super dragon uppercut on Charlie. He fell back a few meters. "Why you b****"

Chung Li then striked Ken in the stomach with her fireball.

Karin then tripped Chung Li toward the ground. "Look. You guys don't have a chance. It's a 4v2."

She was right. Chung Li stood up. "When didn't I love you Ryu?" she tunred around a sombered away.


[END OF FLASH BACK]


Her eyes were now swelled up. She looked up the ceiling. "W-When did I ever stop loving you Ryu?" she asked herself.

"Never. I didn't. I never had time....." Her eyes were soar.

"You're everything to me. And now I realized it. I won't let you be taken from me that easily." She wavered her arms across her eyes. "Sakura won't take you from me. I'll prove to you that I love you more than life itself."

*KNOCK KNOCK*

"Huh?" she thought. "Ryu...." she whispered to herself. She sat up from her bed and walked to the door. She slowly opened it. "Ryu?!" she asked.

"Heh. No. It's me Guile."

"Oh hey."

"May I come in?" he asked.

"Uh...Yea." She opened the door.

He walked in with his tacky army uniform. "I heard what happened today." he said.

"Oh...." she thought.

"Chung Li. You must control your anger. You and Charlie."

"Huh?" she thought. "B-But..."

"No buts!"

She looked up. "She began it with words."

"And you ended it with force." he added.

"I didn't mean to." she said.

"Well, what's the matter between you and Ryu?"

"....Nothing."

"No seriously. You can't hide anything from me. We've been in Street Fighter for a long time." he said.

She looked down. "I love Ryu......" she said softly.

He smiled. "Then why didn't you went for him a long time ago? You guys have been together for quite sometime."

"Yea. But I lost him. I lost his heart. And now i'm trying to find a way to regain it."

"Hm...." he thought. "Ryu and Sakura..."

She took a deep breath and sighed.

"She's too young for him. I mean, he's suppose to be his god damn teacher." he said.

"C-Can you do me a favor?" she said suddenly.

"Huh?!" he thought. "What?"

"Can you bring Ryu here."

He smirked. "Am I your Bus boy?" he asked.

"No. Your just a good friend." she said.

"............" he smiled. "And you are too. Okay, I'll bring him over."

"Really?!" she said.

"Yea Yea. I'll do it. I'll bring your soon to be lover here."

"Thanks!" she gave him a hug. "I really need him right now more than anything else."

"Yea. I could see that." He glanced at her face. It still looked a little bruisy.

He slowly stood up. "Well then. Looks like the Bus boy got to go."

She grinned. "Go now!"

He smiled. "Yes Ma'am." Guile quickly ran out of the door.

She closed the door. Her head was against it. "Please come Ryu...."

*++*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*



Ken, Karin and Sakura was busy chomping away on their wonton noodle soup.

*gulp* *chomp* *gulp* Ken raised his head up. "Aren't you going to eat? He asked Ryu.

"Yea. Either your eating it or I will." said Karin.

Ryu was staring at his food. His face was glumy.

[FLASHBACK]

Chung Li stood up. "When didn't I love you Ryu?" she tunred around a sombered away.

[END OF FLASH BACK]

He took a deep breath.

"What's the matter?" Sakura asked.

Ryu didn't flinch nor talk.

"Ryu?" she asked again.

He slowly moved his head and glanced at her. He then glanced back at his wonton noodle soup. He saw a reflection of Chung Li's face in the soup. His eyes widened. Then he saw her and himself together training together." Ryu took another deep breath.

Sakura put her chop Sticks down. "Ryu?"

"Yea..?" he softly spoke.

"Chung Li does not love you. She's just using you as a mere bait to make Charlie more jelous." she said.

He didn't shutter. "............."

"Ryu....." she pulled out her hands for him. "I'm here for you."

His eyes were still small. It felt as if the world was tumbling down on him and there was no where to go.

Ken then really noticed that this wasn't funny. His eyes were so glumy in confusion. He stood up. "I got to go the washroom." he said.

"You don't have to ask." said Karin.

He walked pass Sakura and Karin. Then he grabbed onto the back of Ryu's collar. He jerked him silly across the floor.

"HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" asked Ryu.

"Ssshh. Just go where I go."

Ryu stood up from the ground. He swept off the dirt.

"Hey, where are you taking my Ryu away!?" Sakura asked.

"He needs to go to the washroom too."

Ryu quirked a brow.

"Seriously?" she asked.

"Huh?" he thought.

Ken nudged him with an elbow.

"Oh. Yea. I got to go the washroom. We'll be right back." he said.

"Two guys going to the washroom? Odd." said Karin.

"Well guys will be guys." she grinned.

"Yea. I guess so." She continued to eat her wonton.

Ryu and Ken were now in the washroom. "S-So what's the idea, Ken?"

"Well. You look pretty damn depressed. Care to explain?"

He stood there. "Nah..." he said.

"Well, you better or else I'll give you the beating of your life." he smirked.

".........." he thought. "No seriously. There's nothing wrong."

"1....." he began to count.

"Seriously." he said.

"2...."

"There is nothing wrong."

"3...."

"..............." Ryu stood there looking at him.

"Okay Ryu. Are we friends or what?"

"Yea."

"Well friends tell each other anything that might concern the other friend. SO. As a friend, I want to no why your so depressed."

"Chung Li..." he mumered out.

"Huh!? What did you say?"

"Chung Li..." he softly spoke.

"I CAN'T HEAR YOU RYU!!" he pushed his ear outward with his hands. "What?!"

"Chung Li..." he finally said.

Ken's eyes widened. "Chung Li?"

"Yea. Chung Li." he said.

Ken began to wash his hand. "Well you better start picking the right girl." he said. "But to let you know, I'm with you all the way."

"Thanks bro."

"Yea Yea. Anyways, Charlie and her seems pretty damn close you know?"

"Yea. But I just have a feeling that her heart still really needs me."

"Well that's because she probrably does."

"Huh?! What do you mean?"

"I mean. Chung Li didn't cried fake tears when she ran away. It was all real. I could sense love from a distance away."

"Chung Li..." he looked away.

"Don't worry Ryu. I know the perfect way to get you back with Chung Li."

"What do you mean?" he asked.

"Just let the man do it." he gave a big grin.

"...That doesn't look right." he thought. "Nah. I'll do it."

"No way! I'll do it." He opened the washroom door.

"wait up!!" he said.

Ken went back to his seat. "So how is it going?" he asked.

Sakura looked at him. "...uh..It's all good." she said.

"You hiding something?" Karin asked.

"Yea. As a matter of fact. I am." he said.

Ryu then made his way back to his seat.

"Hey Ryu. How was your washroom break?" she asked.

"Oh...Yea. It was ..very good."

She giggled. "hehe. I was joking about that. I don't want to know what you did in the washroom."

He began to blush from embarassment.

Ken saw Sakura giggling at Ryu. This was totally not right. "I'm not going to let my friend pretend and suffer from what he doesen't like..." he thought. He stood up again.

"What's the matter this time?" asked Karin.

Ryu and Sakura then glanced at him.

"Sakura. I have to end this now."

"Huh?!" she thought.

"I'm going to say this short."

"And sweet" Karin added.

Ken started to become annoyed. "No seriousy Karin! This is important"

"Okay, Okay...." she said.

"What is it?" asked Sakura.

"Ryu has no f-fe......"

"IS RYU HERE?!" said a voice behind them.

They all turned around.

"Guile?!" thought Ryu.

"RYU. COME HERE." he said forcefully.

"Huh?!" he thought. He stood up. "What do you want Guile!?"

"Yea. What are you planning to do?" asked Sakura.

"RYU. MEET ME OUTSIDE." He turned around and walked out of the restaurant.

Everyone was stunned.

He walked in Guile's direction.

"I'm coming along too." said Sakura.

"No. Stay here." he said.

"What the hell is going on!?" Ken thought.

As Ryu reached the entrance of the Restaurant, he saw Guile no where in sight.

*VROOM VROOOOOOOOOOOM* A car then sped out of nowhere. "Get in." he said.

"No. What do you want first?" he asked.

"Get in." he said again.

"No. I'm not stupid you know. I'm not moving anywhere." he said.

"Chung Li wants to talk to you. I will take you to her. Right now. Hop in."

"Chung Li?!" he asked.

"She wants to talk to you. She's been crying and aching for quite sometime since that event."

His eyes widened. "What makes you think that what your saying is just a fake." he said.

"D-Don't you trust your ol buddy Guile? For god sakes, you know that I'm not evil."

"..........." he thought.

"You're missing your chance. She loves you a lot Ryu. If you still have feelings for her, hop in." he said.

"................" he thought. Ryu then walked toward his sports car.

He opened the door.

Ryu looked at him.

"I'm not fooling you kid. Come in.."

He entered into his veichle.

"Okay, you better wear you seatbelt.." He immediately stepped on the gas pedal and quickly accelerated away.

Ken, Sakura and Karin then came out after paying the bill.

"RYU!?" yelled out Ken. "WHERE ARE YOU GOING!?"

"RRRRYYUUU!!?!" screamed out Sakura.

Karin stood there. "Well, guess he got abducted. Should we save him?"

Ken thought to himself. "There is no way Guile would do such a thing." He stood there trying to fix the puzzle together. "Unless......"
