29th JUNE 2011
Miharu, Ling and Yuu were watching their marks. They were nervous but then Miharu started jumping with joy.
-I passed everything!-she said.
-Congratulations Hirano!-said one girl.-You were the best student from the class…again!
-Thanks!
-How did you do, Ling?-asked Yuu.
-Ok…I think.
-Hey…you were the best in Martial Arts and Sports…-said Miharu.
-You were great!-said Yuu.
-Yeah…but I failed Biology…
-At least you're on the honour board!-said Yuu.
-Tonight we will celebrate!-announced Miharu.-You passed too, right, Yuu?
-Yeah…I had the same marks as you…
-Really? Wow…you studied hard!
-Yes, I guess I did!
NAGANO
-Miss Monteiro I told you I can't help you! Please return to your country…-said Cusak, who had helped Eddie in his plan to destroy Heihachi's Empire.
-I know you met Eddie…he was my master and he was my grandfather student! I have to find him…I don't know nothing about him for more than three years!
-I met Eddie but I don't know where he is! Probably he's not even in Japan…
-He was here last year! My grandfather is sick…he is dying and he needs to speak with Eddie.
-Please…Miss…you're too young, you shouldn't travel alone…
-I'm not a child…I'm eighteen…how dare you? I will not leave without Eddie! I'll find him with or without your help!
-Just stay here in the Hotel and let me see what I can do, ok?
-Fine! You have two days! And ask a Jacuzzi bath for me…I can't speak Japanese, ok?
-What have I done to deserve this!?-complained Cusak leaving Christie's room.
Eddie was now living in El Salvador. He owned a huge farm, a big property were many people worked. His employees liked him because he was an honest man. He had given money to build another school in the city.
Cusak knew where Eddie was, but he couldn't say a word to Christie because Eddie had given him instructions not to. So, he decided to phone Eddie to tell him that Christie was looking for him.
When Eddie got his phone call it was very early in the morning.
-What happened?-asked Eddie.-Do you know what time it is here?
-I'm sorry…but it's important…
-It's three in the morning! Did Mishima come back from hell?
-No…it's not that! A girl is here…in Japan. She's looking for you!
-A girl?
-Her name is Cristina Monteiro.
-Christie!? She's in Japan!?
-Yes…
-Tell her you don't know where I am…tell her that I need privacy!
-I tried!
-Tell her to go back to Brazil!
-I tried that too. She said her grandfather is dying and needs to speak to you!
-Damn it!
-What do I do?
-I'll think of something…I'll call you back soon.
Now Eddie was really angry. Christie shouldn't be in Japan. She was just a kid and there were still some people related to the Mishima Empire that could hurt her.
Besides, he couldn't leave El Salvador, he was hiding too. He was sad thinking that his master was dying, but he couldn't do anything.
TOKYO
MISHIMA POLYTECHNICAL SCHOOL
3rd JULY 2011
It was almost five in the afternoon when Miharu, Ling and Yuu left the School. They had been doing their registrations for the next year, and now they were finally and officially on holidays.
Jin was also in Tokyo. He didn't know where to go, everything seemed different now. So he walked in the streets of Tokyo and when he realised he was near the Mishima Polytechnical School. He watched Ling and her friends enter a café, but he hide.
The Mishima Mansion was closed; no one could get inside without the police permission, so Jin didn't have anywhere to go.
He stayed there, watching Ling. He didn't know what to do. Should he go to her like nothing happened? Or should he wait? The truth was that he had left her again, without saying goodbye. She was probably upset with him; maybe she didn't want to see him.
After a half an hour, the three friends said goodbye and Yuu went home. Miharu and Ling headed home too.
It was a very hot afternoon, but strangely there were some dark clouds in the sky.
-I think it's going to rain!-said Miharu.
-But it's so hot!
-The weather is really strange these past few years!
-The sunset is weird!-said Ling.-Look! It's pink and red!
-Yeah…people say that something is about to happen when the sky is like this!
-Geez…I hope is something good!
In that moment started raining and the two girls ran so they wouldn't get too wet.
-I think I was wrong…it was a bad thing! It's raining…-said Ling.
-You have to learn to shut your mouth!
-I know…Bye Miharu. I'll see you in the morning.
-Yeah…I'll go to your place at ten! See you!
When Ling arrived, she prepared the dinner and after that, she watched the news with her grandfather. Chen Ying was feeling tired and it was almost eleven p.m. when he went to bed.
Ling stayed a bit longer. Two hours later she was almost sleeping when someone knocked on the door.
Ling was surprised; she never had guests that late. What if was a thief? She was thinking about not to open the door, when she thought that she had entered the Iron Fist, she was capable of defending herself if it was a thief, so she got up and opened the door. It was dark but she recognised Jin immediately.
-Jin!!!-she said hugging him.-Is it really you?
-I'm sorry…-Jin said.-I didn't know where to go!
-You're soaked! Come on in!
Jin walked in. He had been in the rain for some hours, deciding what to do. He tried to go way from Ling's house, because he didn't want to get her into more troubles, but he couldn't do that. He just wanted to be with her once again.
-Are you ok?-Ling asked, giving him a towel.
-Yes…
-Where were you? I was so worried! I wanted to look for you, but I didn't know where to start!
-I was just around!
-Why did you leave, Jin?
-I…don't know…I was confused. I'm sorry…I hope you're not too angry!
-Of course I'm not!-Ling said sitting down next to him.
She was so happy that he was back and that he didn't forget about her.
-I'm glad you didn't forget about me…I was starting to wonder…-she said feeling her face turn red.
-I would never forget you!-Jin said hugging her.
-Jin?
-Yes?
-I think you should go and take a hot shower…you're soaked!
-Yeah…thanks!
Ling had many questions to ask him, but she knew that it wasn't that important. The only thing that mattered was that he was there, with her. After all the pink and red sky meant that a good thing was going to happen. Jin was back and now, Ling would do everything to make him stay there forever.
TOKYO
4th JULY 2011
In that morning, Chen Ying almost died from a heart attack when he entered the living room and saw Jin on the couch.
Ling woke up immediately and had to explain some things to her grandfather. Jin knew a bit of Chinese but Ling and her grandfather were speaking so fast that he could hardly understand a word.
-Don't worry I didn't say anything about what happened to us in the Iron Fist.-Ling said after her grandfather left to his morning walk.-You're just a friend who needs a place to stay.
-Did he believe you?
-Yes…I'm his granddaughter…
-Do you think he'll let me stay?
-Sure! Now you should get dressed and then we'll go out, ok?
-Yeah…
-I'm going to my room…
Ling was starting to get dressed when someone knocked at the door.
-Jin? Are you dressed?-she asked from her room.
-Almost!
-Can you get the door? It's probably my friend!
-Ok…
Jin put on a white shirt and he was still butting it up when he opened the door. Miharu was shocked.
-Good morning…-said Jin.-Ling is the bedroom, she's dressing…you better go there.
Miharu was speechless. She passed Jin and headed to Ling's room. Jin shrugged and closed the door.
-There's a guy…-Miharu started.-I think it's Jin…
-Yes…is Jin…
-Oh my God! You two didn't…
-What?
-He slept here?
-Yeah.
-Ling! You didn't!!!
-What?
-You know…did you two do it?
-NO! Are you crazy!? Jin slept in the couch!
-Oh…ok…sorry…
-Geez, Miharu…you shouldn't think those things…
-Sorry…
-Look…I have to go with Jin…so I guess I can't go with you, can you forgive me?
-Yeah…sure…what about your grandfather? Does he know about Jin?
-Yes.
-Ok…then I'll see you later, right?
-Yeah…sure.
The girls left and Jin, who was sitting on the couch, stood up immediately.
-This is Hirano Miharu.-Ling presented.
-Hi…-said Miharu.
-I'm Kazama Jin…sorry if I scared you earlier!
-It's ok…see you later!
After breakfast, Ling was forced to say what was in her mind.
-The police looked for you…Jin.-she said.
-Yeah…I know…
-If they see you here, they'll ask some questions and you can be arrested…
-Yes. I thought about that and I decided to go to the police and talk with them…it's better this way.
-What will you say?
-That I knew about my grandfather's crimes and that I ran away because I was scared…I can't tell the whole truth, can I?
-No…I guess you can't…will you mention your parents' death?
-How do you know?
-Hwoarang told us…me and Julia.
-Hwoarang…yeah I almost forgot about him…are they ok?
-Yes, I saw them last year…they were fine!
-Good…And no, I will not mention that or you, Julia and Hwoarang…Heihachi is dead, so there's no point…
-What if they take you to a lying detector?
-They won't…I hope…
When Jin entered the Police Department he was a bit nervous. Ling stayed outside waiting for him.
The chief knew Jin since he was a kid and he called him to his office.
-So are you ok, kid?-asked Kamano.
-Yes…
Then someone entered the room. Jin had seen him in the Iron Fist, but didn't know who he was.
-This is detective Lei Wulong…he's going to ask you some questions…I have a meeting. Besides this is his case.
Jin and Lei were left alone.
-You're Mishima's grandson?-Lei asked.
-Yes…
-I saw you…in Fuji…
-Yes. I saw you too.
-Where have you been?
-Everywhere!
-You were running away from your grandfather, wasn't that right?
-Yes.
-Why?
-Because I knew he was using my friends from the School…
-Why didn't you tell the police?
-He was my grandfather and my only living family…
-So you wanted to give him another chance!
-No…I just needed some time to think.
-Your grandfather was in Fuji too…did you meet him there?
-Yes…I fought against him…
-How? He wasn't a contestant!
-You shouldn't have left so early, detective. My grandfather was the Boss…I thought you knew…
-My chief called me back…this is getting interesting…so, did you win?
-No. I ran away again…I didn't want to be his heir!
-He told us you were in Obama when his Fortress exploded…
-I wasn't there!
-Can you prove it?
-No…but if I was running away from him, why would I go to Obama?
-I don't know…many people died in that day…
-I suppose…
-Did you know some people who were working with your grandfather?
-Yes…Bryan Fury and the Williams sisters…and also Dr. Boskonovitch.
-Williams…I think I heard about them…I have to check it out!
-I don't know anything about them…it's just names that I heard…-Jin lied.
-Do you know a man named Eduardo Gordo, or Eduardo Lima?
-No.
-Why are you back?
-I just needed to start a fresh life…
-Ok…Mishima Jin…I'll verify your story and if something happens we'll call you here, ok?
-Yes.
-Don't go anywhere…just stay here in Tokyo.
-Ok…I will.
-About your grandfather's fortune, you are his heir, but his bank accounts have no money and the State put some of his houses on sale.
-It's ok…I don't need the money…
-I think the mansion here in Tokyo and the cars are yours…but I have to speak with Kamano ok?
-Yes…I understand.
Jin left and found Ling waiting for him.
-How was it?-she asked.
-Ok…I never lied this much!
-It's for a good cause…
-Yeah…
-So, what do you want to do, now?
-Would you like if I went back to School?
-To the Mishima?
-Yes…I didn't finish school…what do you think?
-It would be great! We'll be in the same year…and probably in the same class!
-I guess it will be fun to see everyone again…
Jin had a good feeling about his new start, maybe now he could relax a bit and enjoy Ling's company. Now he could almost feel free.
