Chapter 7: One of the Gang
He decided now that he was known he may as well stop hiding in the side room. He looked for a place to sit, but all the sofas were occupied.
"You can sit here if you would like." Phil looked down and saw a pair of big blue eyes looking up at him. He sat down next to the brunette and nodded as a thank you. "I just want to be the first to say that was hilarious." she said shyly, it looked like she was slightly flustered with Phil's presense. Phil smiled.
"Thanks, that's doesn't happen usually, so I hope I didn't cause any trouble." The brunette laughed.
"No, it couldn't have happened to a better guy, Zack's a creep." Phil nodded in agreement. "I'm Hitomi by the way, and yes I know you're Phil." Phil was thankful he didn't have to introduce himself again. Hitomi was writing in a binder, Phil craned his neck to see what she was writing.
Is that homework? Man I thought she looked young but damn. Hitomi sighed.
"Yes, this is homework, math. I graduate from high school this year, I can't wait."
High school? Do your mommy and daddy know you're here? Hitomi stretched and closed the binder.
"That's enough for tonight, so what brings you here?" They started with small chitchat, but it soon developed into some more good conversation. Phil was finally starting to feel like he belonged, first Helena and Gen Fu and now Hitomi, he was starting to become one of the gang. They talked for quite a while, Phil made sure nothing he said could be taken as flirty in any way shape or form, since back home she would still be considered illegal. Phil began to look around the room. The large man who was at the pool table earlier now sat by another fireplace, reading a thick book.
"That's Leon." Hitomi said. Phil looked at her. "He's pretty quiet, doesn't like people too much, but a heck of a competitor." Phil studied Leon, the large Italian wore a constant scowl on his face, a never ending mask of anger on him.
Hmm, anyone I know who's always angry is usually trying to hide something else. Phil noticed another large man playing a game of cards with a slender lady with bright platinum hair.
"Bayman and Christie." Hitomi continued. "They're both assassins, but they can't harm each other or anyone else here as long as we are under DOAtec rules, unless it is in a match." Christie sat in a pair of black leather pants and a very tight shiny black turtle necked shirt. The outfit contrasted very well with her platinum hair. Bayman on the other hand was far less stylish, though the white muscle shirt and blue jeans was enough to make him look intimidating.
Alright, avoid the mourner and the angry Russian, got it.
"I'm not entirely sure why Christie is here again this year, she made her peace with Helena, but Bayman is another story." Phil looked back at Hitomi. "He wants Donavon dead, and Donavon has offered Bayman a shot at him if he can win the tournament." Phil was a little confused.
"Donavon lets a man who wants him dead into his tournament?" Hitomi nodded.
"Bayman's arena matches always attract big draws, which makes Donavon very rich." Phil didn't say anything. "Arena matches are off-season or non sanctioned matches outside the tournament. Actual tournament matches will be fought in manmade atmospheres that replicate a certain type of landscape, but other matches, or 'grudge matches' as they've been called take place inside the arena where our tryout fights happened."
Wow could this BE any more complicated? There's no going to be a test on this will there? Phil nodded. "I think I got it." He kept looking around the room, he saw the Chinaman from earlier. There's the prick from the locker room. Phil made a motion towards him, Hitomi rolled her eyes.
"That's Jann Lee, he claims to be the greatest fighter alive, and he calls himself 'The Dragon'."
Wow, a Chinese martial artist calling himself 'The Dragon', real original buddy, did you think that up all by yourself or did mommy and daddy help you? Hitomi continued,
"Every year he enters the tournament, bragging how this year will be his year, and every year he gets eliminated, then afterwards he complains about it and asks for grudge match after grudge match. He is a good fighter, he was my first loss last year, but his ego keeps him from getting to that next level." Phil nodded, taking mental notes. A Chinese girl came and sat next to Jann Lee, they did not exchange words though. "That's Leifang, she's my friend, really nice, but very conflicted." Phil chuckled.
"How so?"
"Well, she's obsessed with Jann Lee." Phil nodded, he could understand that, Jann wasn't a bad looking guy. "And not just like that, like her entire life revolves around him." Now Phil was curious. "She is obsessed with finally defeating him someday to prove she's better than him, and once she beats him, she wants to declare her love to him." Phil laughed.
"Oh come on, she wants to beat him, so she can win his love?" So she's basically kicking her competition's ass for Jann Lee's attention, but her competition is Jann Lee himself? Could one pair of people be any more screwed up? Hitomi giggled lightly and nodded.
"No joke, I feel bad for her at times." Phil nodded to agree with her statement.
So avoid the psycho chick and her prick boyfriend, check.
Sorry to all readers if I have offended you with my interpretations of the DOA characters, it's all in good fun right? Ah well, keep on reading please.
