A/N: As always, I own neither Tekken nor Soul Calibur, though if I did, I would own Hwoarang and we would be out eating at a fine restaurant I would not be here typing this for your reading pleasure, at least, I hope it's your pleasure. In response to my one review, I say:

Pyro Tsunami- YAY! I am looking forward every day to the update of Fallen Angel! Baek... interesting, he's not bad, he's just Hwoarang's dad... Heihachi's not going to die... at least right now. Oops, I can't say anymore...


"Dr. Nakamura, what was in the lab that was broken into last night," asked the investigative police officer on the scene.

"A project I was working on, it was not to be revealed for another two years," the shaken doctor replied.

"What was it, Doctor?"

"An experiment, highly classified, G Corporation does not allow me to discuss it."

"Does it pose any threat to security?"

As the doctor opened his mouth to reply, a man in a finely pressed black business suit interrupted. "Dr. Nakamura cannot answer anymore questions unless a warrant is shown."

"Thank you, sir," the officer said, walking away to find other witnesses to interrogate.

"Dr. Nakamura, can I speak with you?"

The doctor followed the man back into the G Corporation headquarters to an empty lab. He shut the door behind them. "I need to know exactly what was in that lab, Dr. Nakamura."

"A project I was working on, code-named the Devil Gene. It was not meant to be released for years, it was highly classified."

"What caused the disturbance last night?"

"The escape of the project itself."

"The project was alive?"

"It was the reanimated body of Kazuya Mishima, we used the Devil Gene locked in his DNA to bring him back to life, and he was supposed to be in stasis for another two years, at the least until we could figure out how to harness the power of the gene itself. Something must have awoken him, and he broke out last night."

"What are we going to do, Doctor?"

"Send out the greatest and most powerful search party ever assembled to capture him before he can do any damage," the doctor replied simply, knowing it was the only answer.

The man was flabbergasted. "Do you know how much money that would cost G Corporation just because your project got out of hand?!"

"I did not want to do this project in the first place! G Corp forced me to! Let them pay the price for their mistake!" Dr. Nakamura raged loudly. "It will teach them that death and life are not to be messed with by mortal man!"

"You best rethink your decision to betray G Corp, before your words come back to bite you," the man said, turning to leave the room.

The most horrible force in existence has just been released onto an unsuspecting world, I pray for those who stand in its path. These were the doctors last thoughts as the sound of a gunshot rang out across the G Corporation Plaza. I unleashed it, I deserve my fate...


"Come on, I'll help you back to the manor," Jin said, putting Kilik's arm around his shoulders. "The servants there can bandage your injuries and we have plenty of room for you to stay."

"Thank you for your kindness..."

"Jin Kazama."

"Thank you, Kazama. My name is Kilik."

"What are you doing here," the young fighter asked as they made their way carefully through the trees back to the path that led straight to the front door of the Mishima manor.

"I don't know," he replied quietly. "I was fighting Soul Edge near Ostrheinsburg Chapel and the power surrounded us and we found ourselves here with that old man, Heihachi..."

"That is my grandfather; he is power-hungry and cares nothing for honor. A disgrace to the Japanese culture," Jin muttered. "I shudder to call him family."

"I have no family, I never have," Kilik said quietly. "My only friend was my foster sister, who died when I was young."

"My mother died when I was fifteen, four years ago," Jin told him as they found the path that led to the house. "She was killed by Toshin, a powerful, evil force that kills fighters. There are many who have been claimed by its might."

"My sister was killed by Soul Edge and its Evil Seed, it killed everybody at the monastery where I lived then. My sister gave me the one thing that protected her against it so that I might live."

"My mother gave her life so that I could escape Toshin. I miss her so much."

They walked the path for a little while in silence, and soon the manor came into view. "There's going to be a Tournament here, you know," Jin said, opening the door for Kilik to go into the large and extravagant lobby.

"A Tournament? What is the prize?"

"Mishima Zaibatsu and a fortune to last ten lifetimes," Jin replied, as if he could not care less. "And now that Grandfather has found out that Soul Edge is one of the most powerful forces in the world, he will probably find a way to get that as a prize."

"The last thing this world needs is Soul Edge; it will only bring death and destruction, no matter whose hands it falls into."

"Especially those of the Mishima's," Jin added as he guided Kilik up the steps toward the guest bed rooms.

"Thank you, Kazama," Kilik said as they entered the guest bed room.

"Call me Jin, please," he replied. "I'll leave you now so you can rest, there is a bathroom right through that door, and there are servants everywhere in case you need help. As soon as you get well, I would like the chance to spar with you before the Tournament, that is, if you are planning on entering."

"I would like that, Jin."

Jin left the room and headed toward his room in the wing opposite the one in which he stood. He thought he heard the crackle of electricity and power far in the distance where Nightmare and Heihachi still fought, but put it off to his imagination.
