SPIDER-MAN/KING OF FIGHTERS CH.11
Both teams of Ryo and Robert as well as Terry and Joe were in position to the flame arena on the bridge.
"This is it Kong!"said Flash looking upon the screen where both portratis of Terry and Ryo stood with the word VS in the middle. "The ultimate battle of KOF past and present!"
"Yeah,and the winner gets to go up against K!"said Kong.
Fisk spoke into the microphone. "Will Terry Bogard and Ryo Sakazaki please enter the ring!" he said. "The next to last finals are about to begin!"
Meanwhile,back at the concession stands,both Saisyu and Shingo were chatting with K and Maxima about what was really happening,while they all sat down at a picnic bench and ate coke and nachos.
"So-you're saying this man is a clone of my son?"said Saisyu. Maxima was the one doing the talking since K wasn't all that comfortable discussing his past and NESTS as well. "More like an advanced clone being from your son's fire chi power mister Kusangai."said Maxima. "I'm sure Shingo told you all about the events of KOF 99-01?"
"In as much detail as I could find out about."said Shingo. "A guy named Krizalid said K was his clone. I thought telling master here wouldn't do much even after the last tourney,but I should've figured we'd meet up again in another KOF."
"Well.I amdit this is rather startling news."said Saisyu. "To think an evil organization would do such a thing to take over the world at first through my own son's being."
"Well,thankfully all the other clones were destroyed after 99 and those tow that were actually in the contest were trapped back at the hidden base. K here is all that remains of the once clone army."
"Yeah but-I'm pretty much my own man come to think of it."said K as he arose from the table. "That's for sure."said Shingo laughing. "I am also pleased how great a pair of fighters the both of you have become."said Saisyu. "Perhaps the both of you could join my school or upcoming team I have planning for the next actual KOF team tournament."
"Tempting offer old master."said K. "But I'm afradi we have our own team now." "Yeah,namely another pair of ex-Nests agents named Whip and Kula."
"Very well."said Saisyu. "But just wait until the next KOF when we meet. Which means the both of you'd best be ready!"
"Hey,we're ready for anything that comes at us Saisyu."said K. "Now if you'll excuse us,Max and I need to wait for our turn to come."
"Yeah,we've seen and heard that Bogard can be a pretty fast finisher at times. And thanks for the snacks. Take care Shingo,and good luck in kicking the real Kyo's butt! Uh-no offense master Kusanagi." "None taken Maxima."said Saisyu. "My new disciple and I intend to teach my son a lesson in humility he and the others soon won't forget."
Both Terry and Ryo entered the ring. "So..this is it once again."thought Ryo. "I was once a champion of the first ever KOF till Terry and all the others showed up. Can I win back another title?"
"I was once the reigning King of Fighters till 94."thought Terry. "I've defeated many a powerful opponent,but can I make it to the final match?"
Before either could shake of their doubts,the bell rang and the match began.
Ryo made the first move as he threw a Ho-Ken at Terry,but the Southtown native dodged it and then moved in with a Burn Knuckle,causing Ryo to fall to the ground.
Ryo leapt back to his feet and went for a different attack. Terry had one in mind and did a Power Wave at him.
Ryo jumped over the wave and went into a flying thrust kick. Terry saw it nearly too late and took it right in the side as he tried to dodge it.
Bogard fell down to his knees in pain. "Sorry about that Terry."said Ryo. "But men like us gotta do what we can to win right?"
"Yeah..you said it."said terry as he got back up. S The pair then went back at it and traded blows with each other. Terry punched and kicked at Ryo,but the Kyokugen master blocked each one off.
The two moved about around in the ring,punching and kicking at each other. Terry went into a spin kick,but as he did it,Ryo caught his foot and shoved him back to the ground. But just as he hit the ground,the back of his jacket nearly ran into the flames,cauising the corner of it to catch on fire.
"WHOA-YOWW!"shouted Terry as he smacked his hands down at the flaming cinders on the corner of his jacket,putting them out.
"Whoop-got a little too close to the flame eh?'said Ryo. "That's the last time you get me in some serious shit."said Terry.
Terry then charged up and unleashed his Overpower Geyser and slammed straight at Ryo with a lunge punch,followed by an uppercut that sent Ryo into the air and then just as he fell back down to the ground,Terry ended it with a Ground Wave that bounced him across the pavement.
"YEAH SHOW THAT HAS-BEEN WHO'S THE KING TERRY!"shouted Kong. Robert saw Ryo's head peeping through the exit of the arena. "C'mon Ryo!"said Robert. "Tag-time-lemme finish this!"
Ryo got up enough strength to reach up and tag Robert's hand,allowing for the second most powerful Kyokugen fighter to take his place.
"Okay Bogard!"said Robert as he stepped up to the plate. "Let's see how you do against me!" "My pleasure!"said Terry as he was about to attack. But before he could,the lightning fast Garcia fired a Dragon Arrow Blast at him.
Terry blocked it off,but he wasn't in time for Robert's next fast and furious attack. He thrust at Terry with a Streaming Gale kick.
"UNNGH!"replied Terry as he was hit in the chest and chin several times by the attack and then fell backwards to the ground.
"Man,he's faster than I remember!"said Terry rubbing his chin. "Uh.need some help Bogard-man?"said Joe who was standing directly near the entrance of the arena. "Like I got a choice?"said Terry. "C'mon Terry,you need rest and maybe---I'll take us to the finals ."said Joe. "If you win you mean."sasid Terry. "But you're more than welcome to try-go get'em!"
Terry touched Joe's hand and the next match went underway. "Nice to see ya again Higashi,"said Robert. "but I'm afraid you're gonna lose!" "We'll see mr.italy."said Joe. "Now-DRAW!"
Robert fired another dragon blast at Joe,but the kickboxer countered it with a Hurricane upper,knocking it away.
Robert was about to go for another attack,but before he could,Joe tunred around did his infamous 'moon'taunt at him.
"WHA---HEY!"said Robert in surprise. "GOTCHA!"said Joe as he jumped at Robert and did a flying thrust kick at him. Robert fell backwards and nearly to the ground from Joe's furious kicks,but landed on both palms of his hands and then thrust one of his shoed feet into Joe's gut,knocking hima few feet away.
Garcia then balanced himself back to his feet and took up his stance again. He then did his finger gesture taunt and said something in Italian to him.
Joe then ran at Robert and tried several thai kicks. He did a high one,Robert ducked it. He then tried a middle one,Rob just blocked it.
Just then,Joe had a sneaky grin on his face and went for the last and best known move he had. He thrust his Golden Heel hurler right at Robert's shin!
"EEEYYOOW!"cried Robert as he was knocked backwards by the force of his kick.
"How do ya like that?"said Joe. Robert rubbed at his shin,it was sore but not broken. But he knew had to fight on.
The Kyokugen then leapt back up again and fought on. The pair went on for minutes smashing blows into each other.
Robert did a roundhouse kick at Joe,but this gave the Thai an opening as he thrust his Tiger Knee forward right into Robert's chest!
Robert's fighting spirit and chi were both getting exhausted,he knew he had to come up with a better attack before Joe could do him in.
He then had an idea,he would cach Joe by surprise and unleash a powerful barrage move known only by the Kyokugen practiconers.
Robert then jumped into the air and sailed down at Joe doing a dive kick similar to Kim's.
Joe jumped a step back as Robert landed in front of him. "NOW!"said Robert as he was about to attack.
"NOT SO FAST!"said Joe as he unleashed his own surprise attack. "SCREW UPPER!"he shouted and did his powerful Hurricane Upper attack.
"KA-WHAM!" Robert went flying across the pavement and right into the rear entrance of the flame arena. "Looks like I'm gonna have to take the reigns again old pal."said Ryo as he touched Robert's hand and pulled him out.
"Ready for some pounding,Sakazaki?"said Joe. "Cause I'm your meat mallet!" "Meat this---KO-HOKEN!"said Ryo as he fired a large fireball at Joe.
Joe was caught by surprise and was knocked backwards and in front of Terry Bogard who was still standing at the entrance.
"Ugh..I couldn't have put that one better---myself."said Robert who was laying upon the ground panting. "You did as good as can be expected Rob."said Ryo. "You gave me the rest I needed,I'll take it from here."
"Looks like I'd better let you finsh it Bogard."said Joe as he slapped palms with Terry. "Talking on Kyokugens like these guys take a lot outta ya."
"Don't I know it."said Terry. "But ya did good Joe,now stand back." The pair of legends faced off yet again in the arena.
"Time to see who's going to the finals!"said Ryo. "So bring it on!" "Bet I will!"said Terry. "BURN KNUCKLE!"
Terry thrust forward at Ryo with his most famed move. Ryo then launched his thrust punch just as Terry's came in contact with his own.
A blast of poweful chi energy exploded in the ring. "WHOOO---MAN THESE GUYS PACK A WALLOP FOR SURE!"said Spider-Man. Once the light balst cleared,Ryo fell to the ground,this time he was really finished,and Terry was still standing.
"THE WINNER-TERRY BOGARD!"said Fisk. "THE FATAL FURY TEAM WILL NOW GO TO THE SEMI-FINAL MATCH WITH THE HEROES TEAM!"
"So.we finally get to take on the lone wolf eh?"said K looking on. "Sure looks like it."said Maxima.
The mysterious NESTS official was still watching through the monitor at K. "Soon my runaway clone---very soon. You and I along with the rest shall be together again just like we were---and once I take control of that fool Fisk's empire---NESTS shall surely live again!"
NEXT IN CH.12:THE FINAL BATTLE THEN TAKES THE WINNERS OF THE KOF CONTEST TO WHERE THE SUPREME FINAL MATCH WILL TAKE PLACE,BUT NOT BEFORE THE TWO OF THEM ALONG WITH YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD SPIDER-MAN RUN INTO A FEW NASTY SUPRISES SET BY THE KINGPIN HIMSELF! ALL THIS AND MORE IN CH.12!
