Chapter 40
Trapped
-'There's nothing to talk about…'-Kazuya said.
-'Stop being a creep! I need to know how this is possible!'-Jin said.
-'I didn't die! I recovered and I joined G Corporation along with Lee! There you go…are you happy now?'
-'I cried for you…I saw my mother in despair when she thought you were gone forever! You let her die!'
-'It wasn't my intention…at the time I was in coma; I spend almost three years recovering!'
-'She died and it's your entire fault!'
-'How could I guess that she was going to commit suicide?'
-'She didn't! And I hate you!'-Jin left the room followed by Ling and they met Hwoarang, Julia and Christie on the hall.
-'Kazama…where are you going?'-asked Hwoarang.
-'To rescue Lee…I need to show Kazuya that we should never leave our family behind!'
-'I'm going too!'-said Hwoarang following Jin to the elevator. Julia, Christie and Ling joined them.
-'I don't need help!'-Jin replied. Jin couldn't believe his father was such a cold person. He didn't even bother to know the truth about Jun's death. She hadn't committed suicide; Heihachi had ordered someone to kill her.
-'Please Jin…be reasonable! Heihachi is looking for you!'-Julia said making him stop.
-'I'm sorry…but I have to go!'-he said looking at Ling.
-'I'm going too!'-she announced.
-'No! I put all your lives in danger and I don't deserve your help! This is about my family and you shouldn't be here!'-Jin said, trying to convince them.
-'I do whatever I want!'-Hwoarang said.-'You're not my boss! Besides, three years ago you needed my help, facing the old man…what makes you think that this time will be different?'
-'We're wasting time!'-Christie said pushing the elevator button.-'Lets go!'
-'Fine! You'll regret this!'-Jin said.
When fifteen minutes later Kazuya realised that Jin, Hwoarang and the others had left the G Corp's base, he couldn't believe how stupid his son was. He was going to face Heihachi alone and knowing that he could die.
-'He's your son…there's no doubt!'-Kira said.
-'What do you mean? And why the hell they left without activating the alarm?'
-'He's stubborn! And I didn't turn the alarm on since you arrived! Sorry…'
-'He's an idiot! How can he be so stupid? Heihachi will have his devil gene and then he'll kill him!'
-'I guess we have no other choice now…get a team and go! Bring Lee and Jin back!'
-'Ok…I'll do that!'
-'Be careful…don't trust Heihachi…'
-'You don't need to warn me about that Kira…I learned my lesson!'
-'You don't need a team to go there…you need me!'-Nina said.
-'Nina! How are you feeling?'-Dr.B. asked her.
-'Why do you care?'-she asked.
-'Is it my impression or I feel coldness in your voice.'-Dr.B. said ironically.
-'You knew everything about me!'
-'You heard us?'-Kira asked.
-'Yes…I did! Now I know…and guess what? I remember! Everything!'
-'Then you know that Heihachi wants your power as well!'-Kazuya said.
-'Yes…I know…'
-'Do you still want to go with me?'
-'Yes…'
In the meanwhile, Jin and the others were arriving the B complex.
-'What's the plan?'-Hwoarang asked.-'We should have brought some guns!'
-'Heihachi wants me alive for now, so I guess I'm quite welcome in here…but you…I think he will not hesitate and he'll order your execution!'
-'We are all good fighters…don't worry about us!'-Christie said.-'When we return…I need to ask you some questions…if you don't mind!'
-'Ok! Then lets go!'-Jin said.
Yuu, Miharu, Eijiro, Law and Paul were on their way to the police department in Fuji.
-'We'll be there in about two hours…'-Law announced.
-'Two hours?'-Eijiro complained.-'In two hours our friends can die!'
-'I know that, but I can't go any faster!'-Paul said.-'We just have to believe that they are capable of defending themselves!'
-'I hope Steve is alright! This assassin story is very disturbing!'-Miharu said.
-'I would like to see Heihachi's face when he realises that we escaped!'-Paul said.
Dr. Abel had just told Heihachi the news.
-'Phoenix and Law left the perimeter! They are going to Fuji!'
-'The hell with Phoenix and his loyal friend! I need Kazuya and Jin!'
-'I guess your wish is coming true, sir! Look!'
Dr. Abel pointed at a security video camera that was showing Jin and the others fighting the tekken forces. They were winning.
-'My army is…I don't have words to describe it! I hope that Dr. B is alive…because I need a new army really soon!'
-'The rescue team said they didn't find his body!'
-'I'm a patient man…now…lets see what Jin wants…'
Steve was tied up in a room. He was unconscious but still alive. Dr. Abel had conducted a few tests on him, and all the tests were inconclusive. There was no way to tell for sure if Steve was caring the devil gene.
Kazuya and Nina were on their way to meet Jin and the others.
-'I think I owe you a «thank you».-Nina said.
-'Why?'
-'Because in that Iron Fist…when I was sent to eliminate you…you didn't let the tekken forces take me away!'
-'You were a pawn…just like me. I felt that you deserved the chance I never had!'
-'I'm still a pawn…and so is my son!'
-'You didn't know Fox was your son?'
-'No.'
-'Do you know who the father is?'
-'For what I remember he was conceived in a lab…I don't know whose cells they used.'-Nina looked at Kazuya.
-'It can be me…'-Kazuya said.
-'Yes…'
-'Was Dr.B. the responsible?'
-'I don't know…I was in cryosleep.'
-'Then I'll ask him when we get back!'
In the G Corporation base, Kira was searching information about the B complex. Dr. B was with her.
-'So, without your boss around, you're the leader.'-he said.
-'You don't know who my boss is!'
-'Yes, I do!'
-'His identity is secret. In this base, Lee is the senior officer, but that doesn't mean anything!'
-'Of course it does! Lee is the G Corporation's leader!'
Kira couldn't believe that Dr.B knew that Lee was the leader.
-'Please, give me some credits! I know Lee since he was a little boy. He was always good in leaderships!'
-'How do you know?'
-'I'm following G Corp's activities since always. I knew Lee was going to try something to get the devil gene! Like father like son!'
-'Lee is not like Heihachi!'
-'Yes, he is! He's ambitious and tricky! He would sell his soul to the devil just to get revenge from Heihachi! Lee hates his father as much as Kazuya!'
-'Lee would never do that! He learned many things in the past!'
-'Then why is he hiding something from Kazuya?'
-'Hiding what?'
-'This base has a secret sub-level! What do you keep there? Is it the machine?'
-'The machine isn't ready yet and Kazuya knows about it! One of the subjects may die in the process…'
-'I know…I helped to build the genotransfer…your machine should be the same as Heihachi's! May I see it?'
-'What for?'
-'To help…of course!'
-'What side are you, doctor?'
-'I'm on the winner's side! Besides I was the first one to study Kazuya's powers and Jin's…I just want to do what's best for science!'
Before Nina and Kazuya could enter the B complex, Nina asked something to Kazuya.
-'When this ends, will you start with Jin all over again?'
-'I don't know…I think it's too late for that!'
Nina didn't know what to do about her son. She was feeling strange. Something inside of her was saying that she had to protect him; on the other hand, she didn't know why she was doing that for someone that she didn't know at all.
Even after remembering all her past, she couldn't understand Steve, because she was never a mother to him.
Just like Jin had predicted entering the B complex wasn't that hard. But now they had to find Lee and get out.
-'You look in the higher levels.'-Jin said to the girls.-'If something happens get out immediately and don't look back! Understood?'
-'Yes!'-Ling nodded.
-'Kazama and I will be fine!'-Hwoarang said waving.
-'Don't play heroes, alright?'-Julia said.
-'We'll be fine…I know the lower levels!'-Jin said.
-'Liar! You were only here once!'-Hwoarang said when they left.
'I had to say something…'
-'I want the girls captured and as for the boys…I'll take care of them!'-Heihachi ordered.
-'Is Jin here?'-Lee asked.
-'Yes…Kazuya is a coward…he sent his son…'
-'Jin doesn't know that Kazuya is alive!'
-'Oh…didn't I tell you? I presented them a while ago! Jin was a bit pissed off but since they managed to escape they probably had a nice chat and knowing Jin like I do, he must have forgiven his father. The kid is so like Jun…it makes me want to cry!'
-'Where are you taking me?'-Lee asked.
'To my chamber! It's quite comfortable…you'll see!'
Ten minutes later, Hwoarang and Jin entered the chamber where Heihachi was expecting them.
-'I was wondering when you would come!'-Heihachi announced.
-'This madness will end here grandfather!'-Jin said.
-'I can't believe you still want to help my grandson!'-Heihachi said to Hwoarang.
'I don't do this for him…I do it because you're a psycho!'
-'Thanks for the compliment!'
In that moment Ling, Christie and Julia found Dr. Abel in a room with Steve.
-'That's Steve!'-Julia said.-'We have to help him!'
-'Why is he here?'-Ling asked.
-'I don't know…Come on…I'll attack the doctor and you two take him!'-Julia said.
The plan worked out. Dr. Abel was caught off guard and Christie and Ling untied Steve and carried him out.
-'I think we have to go outside!'-said Christie.
-'Ok…We'll wait for Jin and Hwoarang outside!'-Ling agreed.
When they were arriving to the elevator, they bumped into someone. It was Nina and Kazuya.
-'Where is Jin?'-Kazuya asked.
-'Searching for Lee!'-Ling answered.
-'Is he alright?'-Nina asked looking at Steve who was unconscious.
'Yes…he's unconscious due to the drugs they gave him!'-Julia explained.
-'Take him outside! There's a jeep hidden among the trees…contact Kira so she can send someone to pick you up! Here you're all in danger!'-Kazuya said.
After that, Kazuya left and Nina followed him.
-'You can go with them…Jin is not your responsibility!'-Kazuya said.
-'I'll go with you…I know this complex better than you!'
Nina wanted to go because she wanted to see Lee. Now that she knew that Steve was alright, she didn't have to worry about him anymore. Julia, Christie and Ling would take care of him. Besides, she wanted revenge. Heihachi was responsible for all the mess in her life, and he had to pay.
Christie and Ling walked in the elevator carrying Steve but then Julia stopped. She had a bad feeling about that. For some reason, Ling had felt it too. Both girls looked at Christie and she knew immediately what her friends were thinking.
-'Alright, I'll take him on my own!'-Christie announced.
-'Thank you!'-Ling and Julia said at the same time.
-'Be sure you come back with Jin and Hwoarang…or I'll be really pissed off!'
-'You're a star Christie! Thank you and don't worry!'-Julia said, following Ling.
-'You really need a diet!'-Christie said to Steve when the elevator door closed.
Christie was almost at the exit when she heard a huge noise. It was the alarm. Dr. Abel was probably awakened and he had activated the alarm. A voice echoed immediately in the entire complex.
-'This complex is going to be sealed in three minutes.'-the voice announced.
'Oh shit!'-Christie said. She couldn't do anything for her friends, three minutes weren't enough so she decided to take her chance and get out of there with Steve. At least she wouldn't be caught and that way she could help them. She was just hoping that the tekken forces weren't outside waiting for her.
Fortunately for Christie the small army of tekken forces who were in the B complex didn't understand what was happening and when the alarm announced that the complex was going to be sealed, they had all ran away. They were too scared and they couldn't care less for Heihachi's plans.
That way, Christie managed to take Steve to the forest and hide with him, and that was when a man with a mask and a hood passed her and Steve running towards the complex.
Christie put Steve on the floor and ran after him.
-'Hey don't go there! The complex is going to be sealed! Come back!'-she yelled.
The man ignored her. She tried to recognise him, and he seemed to be another contestant, his name was Hicks.
He managed to enter the complex just before it was sealed.
'Hicks!'-Christie yelled punching the door.-'Hicks! Damn it! The guy must be insane!'
'This complex is now sealed…Attention, this complex is now sealed!'-a voice announced while Christie was joining Steve again.
-'This is getting weird!'-she said trying to drag Steve again to search for the jeep.
In the chamber, Lee had joined Hwoarang and Jin.
-'You'll regret this Lee!'-Heihachi said.
-'No, I won't!'
-'Thanks…'-Jin said to his uncle.
'You shouldn't be here!'-Lee said.-'This chamber neutralises the devil gene power…you'll never defeat Heihachi!'
-'He has us…I'm here for action!'-Hwoarang said.
-'Why the hell did you have to involve my friends in this? I'm the one you want!'-Jin said to Heihachi.
-'You're not my only target, Jin…I need you to get your powers, but I want revenge for what you all did to me three years ago! You sent me to jail and you ruined the Mishima name!'
-'I hate being a Mishima!'-Jin shouted.
'I know that! That's why I'm going to enjoy seeing you dead! We just have to wait a few more minutes…the others will arrive soon!'
-'Others…do you mean Kazuya?'-Lee asked.
-'Yes…he knows that his son his here! He'll come!'
-'He doesn't care about me!'-Jin said.
'Well…he may not show it…but you're his son…and he doesn't want you to die! The thing is…this complex is sealed now. No one gets in and no one gets out! But I can make a deal.'
-'What deal?'-Jin asked.
-'You stay here with me and I'll let Miss Xiaoyu and Miss Chang go!'
-'You stay away from them!'-Jin said.
In that moment Dr. Abel entered the chamber rubbing his stomach where Julia had hit him with a powerful kick.
-'That bitch can kick!'-he said joining Heihachi.-'I'm sorry but I lost Fox. I was attacked…and when I woke up I only had time to seal the complex!'
-'It's ok, doctor…everything is fine…why bother with Fox when I can have his mother!'-Heihachi said watching Nina and Kazuya enter the chamber.-'Now we are all reunited!'-he added with a grin.
-'I'll get the genotransfer!'-Dr. Abel announced.
-'I guess you're having some troubles controlling your kid, Kazuya…'-Heihachi said.
-'I guess you too!'-Kazuya replied.
-'This is my genotransfer!'-Heihachi said pointing to a machine.
The machine had two capsules connected by a panel where was registrated the brain waves and cardiac beats from the two subjects. There was also a tube linking the capsules, probably to make the gene transference.
'This is it then…now…you'll have to fight for your lives!'-Heihachi announced.
In the meanwhile Christie was tired and she hadn't found the jeep yet. Steve was heavy, only if Eddie was there to help. Christie didn't know that she was being secretly watched.
By that time, Paul and the others had arrived to the police department in Fuji, but they were having some troubles to explain what was happening.
They had told the officer in charge, Captain Migaru that Lei Wulong had sent them, but the policeman wasn't so sure about it, so he ordered them to be arrested in separate cells.
-'I spoke with the others and you all tell a similar story!'-Migaru confessed to Paul.
-'That's because we are telling the truth you idiot!'-Paul said.
'I checked with the department in Tokyo and they confirmed that detective Wulong is in a secret mission. But that doesn't mean he's here!'
-'But he is! We found him in Fuji-Nion…why don't you believe us?'
-'Maybe it's because I saw your file, and you are quite popular for breaking rules! You have a criminal record!'
'So what? We can't all be saints!'
-'Besides…let me enlighten you: Noguyama Eijiro, he has four pages of criminal records. Belongs to a gang in Osaka. Forest Law…he had also a few troubles with the police years ago, in the USA…so was his father Marshall Law.'
-'It wasn't their fault! Some punks tried to destroy their restaurant…it was self-defence!'
-'I don't understand why Hirano Miharu and Murakama Yuu are here, but they seem nice kids…even so, it's hard to believe your story!'
Ten minutes later, Paul and the others were all reunited in the same room with the Captain.
-'Well…I guess I was wrong about you!'-he confessed.
-'Why the sudden change?'-asked Paul.
-'Because we got a message from a girl…Christie Monteiro. She confirmed your story. Heihachi Mishima is alive and there's something going on!'
-'Did she tell about our friends?'-asked Miharu.
-'Yes…everyone seems to be alright. She's with Steve Fox. We contacted with Detective Wulong…he's in Fuji-Nion, waiting for us!'
-'I want to go!'-Paul said.
-'No way! I'm sending two helicopters and ten men!'
-'Ten? Are you crazy! Heihachi has a huge army…'
'Don't teach me how to do my job! I know what I'm doing!'
