Chapter5: A Home In Tokyo
Jin watched Xiao look at him and then at his grandfather and then back at him. "You mean, you didn't know? I thought I said it in class." Jin's eyes widened. "You mean you were serious!? I thought you were kidding around." He said as he observed her. She looked so small and petite. She can get hurt easily and she is risking her life. What if Ogre will get to her? How will she be able to protect herself?
He noticed her place her hands on her hips and tap her foot. He got his attention back at her and she didn't look amused. "What's the matter?" She asked him. "Think I'm not good enough?" Jin quickly shook his head and put his hands in front of him. "No I never said that!" He looked very sincere. "It's just that, well, uh it's very unusual." Xiaoyu frowned and he knew he picked the wrong words.
"Look." She smiled and crossed her arms. "I bet I can defeat you as well. You know being big has nothing to do with it." Jin smiled at her confidence himself. "Excellent." Heihachi's voice boomed and he saw Xiaoyu jump. She must have forgotten that he is here as well. "Maybe you can train with Jin. Since both of you are entering the tournament." Jin looked at his grandfather and Xiaoyu's mouth literally dropped. "You are joining the tournament, too?" She sounded very surprised and her eyes were so big and shocked.
"Yes, I am." Jin said plainly. "Congratulations." Heihachi said to Jin. "And then you were worried there won't be a training partner for you." Jin wasn't too happy. He never ASKED for a training partner. He just WANTED Heihachi to stop telling him how to train. Heihachi smiled broadly and yet evilly. It wouldn't take a genius to figure out that he was doing this on purpose. "Why don't we show Ms. Ling her home, Jin?" He glared at Jin while smiling. Jin of coursed frowned and followed Heihachi to the limo as Xiao followed them as well.
The whole ride was quiet in the car. Jin was angry with his grandfather for being such a stiff and is still confused about Xiaoyu joining the tournament. It still looks like a joke to him. How can someone as small as her even pass the first round? How can she make it out ALIVE? "Still don't believe me?" Xiaoyu's voice disturbed the silence and his thoughts. "You know, you have to give my mind some privacy. I don't like when people read my mind." He looked out the window, avoiding her gaze. "I wasn't reading your mind, Jin. It's just you. You are so easy to read." Jin looked at her and she had a very sincere face. She looked like she was being honest.
Jin let out a breath and sank in the comfortable seat as he watched the buildings and cars go by as they slowly went home. "So, what's this place like?" Xiao asked as she leaned forward, putting her chin on her hands that are supported by her knees. "I can't give it words. It basically explains itself once you see it." He saw Xiao nod and sit back. "Is this place big?" Jin was getting tired of her trying to make a conversation. "You'll see." "So--what? I'll be living there for the rest of the tournament?" Jin was really getting tired of this. "I don't know." He said it very annoyed. "Are there any parks, like the amusement parks?" Jin blew up. "You'll see!!" Xiao's eyes widened with shock as she watched Jin scream at her. After realizing what he has done he softened up. "Sorry about that." He sounded calmer. "I…I just—" "It's alright." Xiao didn't sound like she meant it though. "Xiao—" "It's okay. Really it is." She folded her arms and looked out the window.
Jin cursed himself and found Heihachi laughing silently. Jin just wanted to smack him one but that will only make more problems. Jin closed his eyes and breathed a long breath out.
When they arrived at the mansion Xiao jumped out of the limousine before the driver could open the door for her. "WOW!!!! This is COOL!!! Is this where I will be living??" She ran to different sides to look at her new home. "Yes. You will eat here, train here, do you homework here and everything you wish. This whole mansion is yours." "Wow." Xiaoyu sounded breathless. She jumped in one place with her pigtails jumping along making her look like a kid. "You were right, Jin." She turned to him and smiled. "This place explains itself!" Jin was glad she forgot about that little argument and nodded. "Just wait 'till we get inside." He said as he came up and looked at it himself.
"Oh, I can't wait. Can we go now? Please?" She made a puppy face and Jin just wanted to laugh but instead he just smiled. "Yeah sure, why not." "Yippee!" She screamed in joy and ran up to the entrance and looked back. "Well what are you waiting for? I don't have the key!" She exclaimed. Jin looked at his grandfather and he nodded. Jin came up to her and smiled. "Welcome to your new home, Ling." Jin said softly as he opened the double doors and Xiao's eyes widened. "Wow." She said as she stepped into the biggest Main Hall. It had a long large hallway leading further down and two large stairs from either side ascending to the second floor. A long carpet ran down each staircase and there was a very large carpet, which led to the hallway. "I can't wait to see how my room looks like!" She said and looked at Jin. "Well aren't you going to show me?" She asked him and Jin nodded.
