Chapter 14: Found
Jin and Asuka looked up at the white building that loomed almost sinisterly before them. Kazuya had dragged his children thousands of miles away from Japan, to a large secluded facility surrounded by thick, ominous forests. The dark gray clouds, constant thunder claps and lightning flashes mirrored the feeling of foreboding they all carried.
Strewed all over the grounds, were either the dead or unconscious security guards; a feat obviously done by the mutated Jun Kazama. Her presence permeated the area, not only by the sight of the broken gates and bodies, but also by the threatening aura she left behind.
"She certainly made getting past security a lot easier," Kazuya noted while staring at the glass doors, which were practically broken to non-existent.
"Dad? Where are we?" Jin asked, looking around. "This area's...somewhat familiar."
"One of G Corporation's primary facilities," his father answered. "This was the first place we kept your mother before moving her up to Nepal."
"So what exactly are we doing here?" Asuka shot the next question. "Why would she want to go back here? I imagine she couldn't possibly remember this place; being in a coma and all."
As if on cue, an invisible force swept through them from within the building. When it stopped, Jin and Asuka let go of their breaths.
"Does that answer your question?" Kazuya mumbled.
"Ogre!" Jin exclaimed. "He's in there!"
"This facility was built around three years ago: right after the third Iron Fist Tournament," Kazuya explained. "After Jun was fatally attacked by Ogre, I initiated a hunt for it but couldn't make a move when he appeared in the tournament. I didn't want Heihachi to know that I was alive; not yet any way.
"When you defeated Ogre in the tournament, he turned into sparks of light and fled into the dark caverns of his temple, where he could regain his strength. We built this facility over the temple to prevent his escape but we never knew how dangerous the place actually was. The entire area is a maze of puzzles and booby traps. I never got to the heart of the temple, nor did I encounter Ogre. So, I simply had it sealed and brought Jun to Nepal where she would be safe.
"Apparently, Ogre's still in there somewhere; and Jun may have already found him."
"Now I remember!" Jin understood. "This was where the final stages of the third tournament was held! This place used to be Ogre's temple!"
"It still is," Kazuya corrected. "At least, the underground part of it. We destroyed the upper levels of the temple during the hunt. The lower levels are still intact."
"So...Mom's in there to take revenge on Ogre?" Asuka questioned.
"Maybe, but no," Kazuya shook his head. "Like Grandfa...Jinpachi said: ogres are the enemies of both the angels and the devils. Jun now has both genes. It's instinctive of her to find the creature and destroy it...and it may be true for all of us as well," he turned about to face his children fully. "Are you sure you want to continue?"
"Are you kidding!" Asuka readied her fists. "I didn't have all my matches cancelled and my butt hauled all the way here for nothing! I'm going in!"
"Same here," Jin crunched his knuckles. "We can't stop now. Mother needs our help."
"Very well..." Kazuya nodded, and closed his eyes. When he opened them, Jin and Asuka backed off. They were as cold as ice.
"D-dad?"
"Is...is that you?"
Kazuya unexpectedly took on his fighting stance.
"I can't allow you to go on," he spoke ominously. "Not unless you prove yourselves to me."
"Don't be silly, Dad!" Asuka chuckled nervously. "We can't fight you! You're our father!"
"Y-yeah! Besides, we're wasting time! Mother could be in danger!"
"She can take care of herself for now. The question is...can you?" Kazuya dropped down and did a leg swipe but Jin and Asuka quickly dodged it.
"Dad! Stop it!"
Kazuya paid no heed. Instead, he swirled around and around before pulling an uppercut, successfully throwing both his children on their backs. Jin and Asuka shakily got to their feet and when they saw how determined their father was, they came to the same resolve.
"Fine!" Jin readied his fists. "Let's go!"
"Yeah!"
A/N: It really wasn't stated where the "foreign laboratory" was located but since it was built over Ogre's temple, I just took it as it is and had the facility built over the underground levels of Ogre's temple in the third Iron Fist Tournament.
