I don't own Tekken.
Reina-183: thanks for your review and if you read this chapter you'll find out who is going to win :P. Please don't hate me…
Shadowsin: thanks for your review and I'm glad you like the story…keep on with your story too!
In the last Chapter:
-So…my father met his!-said Hwoarang.-But that doesn't mean anything…
-I haven't finished yet…
-So what? My father didn't like Hwoarang's!? I don't like him either…just cut the crap, ok?!-said Jin.
-Kazuya killed your father, Hwoarang…my son was a murderer!-Heihachi said smiling.-So, do you still want to help the son of your father's murderer?
Countdown
Jin and Hwoarang stared at eachother. They weren't expecting that confession.
-It was before the Third Iron Fist!-continued Heihachi.-My son was too strong for a General…
Jin and Hwoarang were still in silence. They didn't know if Heihachi was speaking the truth. He could be lying to distract them.
In the meanwhile Anna and Julia were still fighting but they were getting tired.
-I can cover you…-suggested Ling.
-No! I can handle it!-said Julia.
As for Eddie he was in the north tower waiting for his chopper to land. But first, another chopper landed on the platform.
Eddie thought it was the backup army, but it was Nina.
-You better turn back!-said Eddie.
-Why? What's going on?-asked Nina.
-This Fortress will blow up in forty minutes…
-Then I guess I have to go and get Anna! I need to speak to her!
-Probably Anna knows as much as you do! Don't waste time…Jin and the others are here! Take Anna and go!
-Where are you going?
-I don't know yet, but I'll be far away from here! You could come with me…
-I can't…I need to know if Anna is my daughter! Thanks for your offer…and for your help!
-In that case…I have to go! My chopper is here!
Nina saw Eddie fly away in his chopper and then went searching for Anna.
In the control room, Dr.B. was watching everything.
-Make that chopper return!-he ordered to Vik.
-I can't! It's not one of ours…I can't control it!
-That miserable bastard is going to escape! I warned Heihachi, but he didn't listen to me!
-I thought Mr. Lima was Mr. Mishima's friend.
-Forget about that! Who arrived in the other chopper?
-The chopper has Miss Nina Williams code.
-Nina!? What's she doing here?
-She is heading towards her sister!
-Is Anna still fighting?
-Yes. It's a hard fight…or so it seems…
-Anna is tough…but it seems that Miss Chang is too!
Dr.B. was right. Julia was giving Anna a hard time. At first Anna thought that would be an easy fight, but Julia was a better fighter than she thought. Anna was about to lose the fight when Nina arrived and protected her from Julia's strike.
-Are you ok?-asked Nina helping Anna to get up.
-Yes! What are you doing here?
-I need to speak to you!
-I'm busy…
-How well do you remember mum and dad?
-Mum and dad? Why do you ask?
-Answer me!
-Mum…and dad…I don't know…after the accident I…
-Do you remember them?
-I guess I do…
-Anna, do you really remember Susan and Richard Williams?
-I need to finish this fight!
-Fine! I'll help you…but then you will answer my questions! Come on, we have less than forty minutes!
-Why?
-It doesn't matter! Lets get over with this!
Ling was now prepared to fight too. She wasn't going to let Julia fight alone with two opponents.
Soon she discovered that Nina was a very tough fighter.
In Heihachi's office, Hwoarang had finally broken the ice.
-You are lying! You lied to your own grandson…why would you tell the truth now?
-That's right!-said Jin.-We will fight you! I'll never forgive you…
-Fine! You want to fight? Show me what you got!-provoked Heihachi.
Though they had never fight as partners, Jin and Hwoarang were doing a very good work fighting as a team. They had seen many fights from eachother and they were adapting their techniques to each other skills.
Heihachi knew their techniques but he had to admit that they were extraordinary when working together.
When they made a pause to rest, Jin said to Hwoarang, in a low voice, that the Fortress was going to blow in less than half an hour, so they had to hurry.
Jin was planning to activate the alarm before the explosion so everyone could leave the Fortress in time. But first they needed to win that fight.
Ling and Julia didn't know anything about the explosion, so they kept on fighting.
-You really fight better than your sister!-said Anna.
-My sister? How do you know her?-asked Julia.
-Shut up, Anna!-ordered Nina, but Anna ignored her.
-How did you meet my sister?
-I didn't meet her very well! I shot her before we could know eachother more…
Julia was in shock when she understood that she was fighting the woman that almost killed her sister.
-You? You did that to my sister? Why?
-Actually it was an accident!
-An accident!? You almost killed her! That's why I thought I knew your voice…
Nina and Ling had stopped fighting and they were watching Julia and Anna.
Julia was crying and Anna was looking to the floor.
Nina didn't know if she was feeling guilty or not.
-Why did you do that to Michelle? I may not be with her anymore! What have she done to you?-Julia asked crying.
Ling was almost crying too. She never thought that some people could be so evil. How could some people hurt the others like that? Ling couldn't understand that.
-I…it wasn't my fault!-said Anna.-I didn't mean that to happen! But she didn't answer my questions!
Julia couldn't hear those excuses, she wanted revenge, but death didn't seem enough. She wanted to make Anna suffer for what she has done.
The explosion would happen in fifteen minutes and none of the fight was decided.
Hwoarang and Jin were giving all they had.
-I think your mother died begging for her life!-said Heihachi.-She was so weak!
-Shut up!!! She wasn't weak!
-She was a sentimental fool! I'm glad she died!
-SHUT UP! Leave my mother alone!-yelled Jin feeling his blood raging with anger.
Heihachi was playing his last card. He had noticed that he couldn't win the two boys, so he had to make one of them fall. Jin was his target because every time he got out of control he passed out. With Jin unconscious he could easily win Hwoarang and capture Jin.
And Jin was now losing control over his actions. Suddenly he attacked Heihachi with all his strength. His intention was to kill him, but after a few seconds he fell on the floor too. He couldn't breathe normally and his face was showing all the hate he was feeling. Heihachi was on the floor two, bleeding.
-Are you ok?-asked Hwoarang.
-Get out of here!-yelled Jin who was on his knees next to Heihachi.
-Why?
-This will blow in five minutes! Take Julia and Ling with you!
-I'm not leaving without you!
-I'll meet you later! Now GO!
-Are you ok? You're different! I can help you!
-Go! Damn it! Go!
Hwoarang looked to his watch and left running. He didn't want to leave that fight, but he had to warn Julia and Ling.
Jin stayed on the floor. His chest was hurting and was pounding faster than ever. His body seemed a bomb ready to explode.
In the meanwhile Hwoarang arrived stopping Julia and Anna's fight. There were only two minutes left for the explosion. He ignored everyone and pulled Julia and Ling, forcing them to go with him.
-Lets go!-he said.
Nina checked her watch and saw with horror that there wasn't time to get to the chopper, but in that moment Dr.B called Anna to the control room.
-Don't go Anna!-yelled Nina going after her because Anna didn't hear her.-Anna! This is going to explode!
Anna stopped before she opened the control room door.
-What's going on?-asked Julia when Hwoarang was opening the heavy gate.
-This is gonna blow!-said Hwoarang.
-WHAT!?-Julia and Ling said.
-Where's Jin?-asked Ling in panic.
-He said he would meet us later! Lets go!
Jin had realised he couldn't stick with his plan. He couldn't activate the alarm, because of him many people would die. But the pain was too strong, he couldn't even move. He just hoped that Hwoarang, Julia and Ling had left that place.
A few seconds later the detonators set by Eddie exploded simultaneously. The Mishima Fortress was gone, destroyed by a huge fire ball.
-Are you ok?-asked Hwoarang to Ling and Julia who were still on the floor, covered with dust.
-Yes…-Ling answered.
When they got up they saw many wounded soldiers going to the beach. They were probably leaving the island.
-Do you think Jin made it? I mean, to get out on time?-asked Ling.
-Sure…-said Hwoarang, but he doubted it.
-What happened? Did you set a bomb off?
-No…it wasn't me…Kazama told me that this place was going to blow!
-Do you think he did it?-asked Ling.
-I don't know…I don't know who did it or why…
-Do you think there was people inside the house besides the Williams sisters and some soldiers?-asked Ling.
-Bryan Fury was there!-said Hwoarang.-I fought him…and I won!
-So he's dead…just like Anna and Nina Williams…-said Julia.
-Probably…I mean look at this!-Hwoarang pointed to where the Fortress used to be.-There's no chance to survive that!!!
Ling couldn't stop her tears when she heard those words.
-Sorry…I didn't mean to say that Kazama is dead…-said Hwoarang.-We don't know for sure.
In that moment they heard something moving under the wrecks. They followed the noise and saw Jin emerging from there. Heihachi was with him, but he was unconscious.
Jin wasn't hurt, he was holding his grandfather and when he noticed Ling, Julia and Hwoarang, he threw Heihachi to the floor.
Hwoarang noticed he wasn't acting normally. His eyes were different and he seemed numb, almost emotionless.
Without a warning Jin attacked Hwoarang, throwing him to the floor violently. Hwoarang got up, ready to fight, and noticed that his lip was bleeding.
-Are you ok?-asked Julia.
-What's wrong with you?-asked Ling getting close to Jin.
-Stop Ling!-yelled Hwoarang.
Ling stopped.
-That's not the Jin you know!-Hwoarang added.
Jin was looking to him again and attacked, but this time Hwoarang was ready and blocked his attack.
-He's not acting normally! Something happened to him!-Julia said.-His eyes are full of hate!
Hwoarang could only defend himself because Jin seemed to have a brutal strength. But then, Hwoarang felt too tired and he fell on the floor. Jin prepared his last attack but when he was going to hit Hwoarang, Ling stepped in the middle.
-NO!-she yelled.-Please stop, Jin! We're your friends! Don't you remember?
Jin stopped and looked at her. Hwoarang got up immediately.
-Get out of the way, Ling! He doesn't recognise us!-said Hwoarang.
Then, suddenly Jin returned to his normal state.
-Ling?-he asked confused.
-Yes…are you alright?
-I don't know…what happened?
-The Fortress exploded! We are the only survivors!
Jin looked to what was left from the Mishima Fortress. Then he noticed his grandfather on the floor, alive but unconscious.
He saw Hwoarang was bleeding and he understood that he had attacked him.
Ling seemed scared just like Julia.
He whispered something, that sounded like an apologise and then disappeared among the trees.
Ling was going to follow him when they heard a chopper. It was black and had the symbol of the Mishima Empire. It was the B squad, but the chopper never landed because five more aeroplanes were over flying the area.
This time was the police, the Japanese army and the rescue teams.
Hwoarang pulled the two girls way from there. He didn't want to answer the police questions.
-Lets go!-he said after seeing that Heihachi was being taken into custody by the police.
They found some tekken forces going around without knowing what to do.
-We could say to them that everything is over…that their master was arrested!-said Julia.
-The police will take care of them…-said Hwoarang.
One hour later they were back in Obama. They left the boat in the harbour and returned to Mr. Ikura's house. Only Mili was at home.
-Hi!-she said.-Where were you?
-Out for a walk!-said Hwoarang.-We will leave now, ok?
-Something happened?
-No!-said Ling.
-Where's Jin?
-Waiting for us!
Julia got all of their stuff.
-You just miss the news!-Mili said.-There was a big explosion in the Mishima Fortress…
-We heard!-Ling said.-Where is the train station?
When they were finally leaving, Julia turned back.
-Mili, thank your mum and dad for us, ok?-she said.
-Ok…I will!
-And can I ask you another favour?
-Sure…
-We took major Fujitawa's boat to the sea today but the motor stopped and it's still out there in the water. Can you warn the major for us?
-Yes…
-Thanks…for everything.-said Hwoarang.
-Bye…Take care!-said Mili.
For Hwoarang, Ling and Julia there was nothing they could do in Obama in that moment, besides they didn't want to meet the police, so they were going home. The confusion in their minds was huge but they would have time to think during that trip.
