STORM OF LOVE
Chapter Two
It was the first day of the Iron fist tournament and Xiaoyu was getting ready to fight some guy called Forest Law, she had heard that he was really good at martial arts and that his dad has been in the last two Iron fist tournaments. But she was ready to take him on.
Meanwhile, Hwoarang had just spotted Xiaoyu jogging down the stairs and he walked over to her.
"Hey babe" Hwoarang greeted seductively, Ling Xiaoyu jumped at his voice.
"Hi, do I know you?" Xiaoyu turned away, feeling a bit embarrassed that a handsome guy was chatting to her. "Oh wait, you're Hwoarang, right? What is the deal between you and Jin anyway? Why do you hate him so much?"
"It's a long story. Hey, so you fightin' as well?
"It looks like it." answered Xiaoyu.
"So I'm fighting Eddy, he's quite cool, y'know." Hwoarang remarked casually.
"Yeah, I'm fighting now so see ya later."
"See ya babe."
'Oh. My. God.' Xiaoyu thought as she walked to the fighting arena, 'I just got talking to that cute guy. Wonder if he's got a girlfriend. Oh I probably looked such a ditz.'
Xiaoyu was now so happy that she was ready to take on anything, which was why she defeated Forest Law with three blows. She felt so energized after talking to Hwoarang.
Later that day, Xiaoyu was sitting in the canteen drinking a lemonade when she saw Jin walk up to her.
"Hey Xiaoyu, your fight was great!"
"You actually watched me?!"
"Yeah why wouldn't I?"
Xiaoyu thought Jin was acting a bit different lately, he wasn't so quiet anymore, he seemed to be talking to her alot and he had kissed her the other night. Xiaoyu was starting to think that Jin was attracted to her.
"Xiaoyu, I've been meaning to tell you something..." Jin started
"Yeah? What?"
"I think I-"
"Hey Babe!" Hwoarang yelled so everyone could hear,
"Hwoarang, what are you doing here?" said Jin, a bit hastily.
"Cool it, Pinhead, I'm not here to talk to you." Hwoarang exclaimed. Xiaoyu didn't even know that Hwoarang was talking to her, she was thinking about Jin.
Jin got sick and tired of Hwoarang so he walked out. Hwoarang sat in his place.
"I saw you did great this afternoon."
"Hey, I could of sworn you were Jin."
"Jin's left."
"Oh, never mind then."
That night, Hwoarang was walking Xiaoyu back to Heihachi's mansion, after a while, they reached the front gates.
"So, thanks for a great time!" Xiaoyu said happily.
"No probs, babe." and with that, Hwoarang reached for Xiaoyu's lips and kissed her. Xiaoyu was taken by surprise but she seemed to enjoy it. Xiaoyu pulled away to catch her breath but only for Hwoarang to kiss her again.
"We'd better stop, the cameras might catch us."
"Oh, crap, do we have to?" moaned Hwoarang. Xiaoyu giggled and walked back to her room in the mansion.
'Knock Knock'
"Who is it?"
"It's Jin."
"Come in."
Xiaoyu was just putting on her nightdress when Jin came in.
" Xiaoyu, remember that thing I was going to tell you? It was that I have feelings for you."
Xiaoyu gasped and covered her mouth with her hands.
"Jin...I-" Xiaoyu started, "You should have told me sooner." But Jin ignored this and took Xiaoyu in his arms. He slowly put his lips closer to hers....
Xiaoyu suddenly backed away, "I'm with Hwoarang now." she said sternly and turned away from him.
Jin nearly collapsed with shock,
'How could this be?' Jin thought, 'and especially with Hwoarang' Jin then stormed out of the room. Xiaoyu's head was now filled with confusion, but she was so tired from the battle earlier, she fell asleep just moments after her head hit her pillow.
Jin was sitting in the canteen and watched as Hwoarang approached Xiaoyu and kiss her, he was heartbroken seeing as Xiaoyu had rejected him for this red- haired creep who also happened to be his rival. He saw Hwoarang turn to him and giving him a two-fingered salute when Xiaoyu's back was turned. Jin growled with anger as he left the table and stormed off.
"Hey, who was that? He doesn't seem happy." Xiaoyu said as she was looking at the angry man.
"That was Jin, he was probably jealous of me coz I have a buff babe like you." Hwoarang smirked as he put his arms around Xiaoyu. She forced a smile but she couldn't help feeling guilty inside.
Meanwhile, Jin was walking back to his grandfather's mansion, just as he reached the gates, he noticed the door had been left open; and all of the guards had been knocked out cold.
'Who could have did this?' Jin thought.
Jin stepped silently into his room, being alert. He spun around and saw someone about to leave the room.
"Stop, Thief!" he cried. The stranger slowly turned around to meet his gaze. "What are you doing here?" Jin asked calmly, "I won't hurt you. I just want an explaination."
"My name is Julia and I'm looking for my mother, Michelle, she came here to Japan a few months ago and she hasn't come back."
"Why do you think she's here?"
"She came here to speak with Heihachi Mishima." Julia gasped after what she had thoughtlessly revealed to the handsome stranger. "Oh my gosh, I shouldn't have told you that, I don't even know you."
" Don't worry, I don't think she's here or I would have seen her. I'm Jin Kazama by the way." Jin smiled at her.
Julia had remembered that name from somewhere before. Kazama. Jun Kazama. Yes, Jun Kazama had been one of Michelle's closest friends.
"Um.. Is your mother Jun Kazama?" Julia asked hesitantly.
Jin suddenly looked away, overcome with sadness.
"How do you know her?"
"She was my mother's best friend." Julia replied, she lifted Jin's face and looked into his eyes. Obviously Julia had fallen for him at first sight, but she didn't want to seem too desperate. "What's wrong?"
Jin was startled by this, 'Who was she, to break into his house, and why was she all of a sudden acting like a friend now?'
"Please go." Jin said. Julia looked hurt and ran outside. All that time Jin had been thinking of Xiaoyu, he imagined that Xiaoyu was sitting in Julia's place, he had truely fallen in love with Ling Xiaoyu.
That evening, it was Jin's fight; he was against Paul Phoenix, Jin thought this was not a problem, so he went to the fighting arena to get ready.
Hwoarang was against someone called Julia Chang for the day after and Ling Xiaoyu's fight was just before his, against Lei Wulong.
'READY, SET, FIGHT!' Jin heard the loudspeaker as he aimed a punch at Paul; Paul returned the punch to thin air. They carried on kicking and punching with Jin hitting Paul and Paul hitting the air.
'He's too old for this' thought Jin as he aimed a last kick a Paul's face.
"STOP! I forfeit, you win." Paul managed to blurt out. And with that he was carried off to the medical centre by four men.
"Hey, great fight." Jin looked to his side and saw Ling Xiaoyu.
"You saw it?"
"Yeah, why wouldn't I?" Xiaoyu smiled, "Hwoarang's been training, I came to see you fight by myself." she carried on as if she could read Jin's mind. She knew he was jealous of Hwoarang but she couldn't just stop being with Hwoarang because of Jin. Although she had to admit, she was also attracted to the dark haired boy in front of her.
"You should have been training too. You have a big fight tomorrow."
"Yeah, I know, but I'm feeling ready. So, see you later?"
"Yeah, bye."
"Great fight." and with that, she winked playfully and walked off.
"I can't believe that happened, y'know!" Hwoarang laughed.
"Well, you better believe it, my body's acing so much!" Xiaoyu groaned,
"It's your turn to fight now, come on gorgeous, win this for me!"
Hwoarang ran to the arena to fight.
Just ten minutes earlier, Ling Xiaoyu had been fighting Lei Wulong- the police officer she had seen on Heihachi's boat ten days ago. Seeing as they both had similar moves, they knew what to expected most of the time so the other kept blocking, and after several minutes, they were both exhausted. They were not hurt but tired from using the same moves and blocks. So the match was a draw to be rematched two days on. When Ling had literally crawled out of the fighting pitch, Hwoarang was laughing his head off.
Hwoarang had already returned from his fight as Xiaoyu walked towards the entrance to the viewing seats.
"Hey, babe. That Julia Chang was a knockout."
"Come again, Julia who?"
"Julia Chang." Hwoarang repeated.
"I met her the other day, she didn't happen to be wearing a feather headband did she?"
"Yep, that was her. One hell of a weird chick, she kept chanting something when she was fighting, jeez that nearly put me off."
