"Did you really have to use kidney shot?" Eddy still felt the bruise against his side. "I mean that move is so unfair. I can't you boxers actually use those on one another. No wonder most of you end up in wheel chairs when you're old."
"Oh please you were about to drop kick me and if you had the chance you would have kicked me in my unmentionables." Steve grinned as he handed a bottle to Eddy. "So do I get the information or not? I know you and Dr. Boskonovitch knew each other a while back during the third King of the Iron Fist Tournament."
"I'm sorry Steve, but I don't feel like talking much these days. Besides, you got some bad connections with some bad people." Eddy returned as he got off the ground and began stretching a little.
"Steve already beat you, aren't you supposed to hand over the information?" Bart stammered in confusion.
"The fight was not about information, Bart. It's just how me and Eddy say hello." Steve slapped his brother on the back. Bart feeling dumb sat back to watch things unfold a little. He didn't trust Eddy. Bart knew a sly person when he met and he could tell from the glittering in Eddy's eye that something was amiss. As a sly person himself, Bart had a knack for figuring out other people.
"Listen, Steve. I would love to help you, but I am not so sure that I can trust you." Eddy just shrugged as if he knew nothing.
"Listen Ed, I really need the information. What do I have to do to get it?" Steve asked humbly.
"Well, my master is very ill. It would do me a world of good if you could supply a little investment." Eddy winked as he opened his hand to accept the cash. No matter where people lived. All people in the world wanted cash. Steve scrunched his face and took out his checkbook. He signed the check and held it towards Eddy.
Eddy took the check and smiled. "I think you need to add a few zeroes."
Steve snorted as he began to increase the price and held it forward. Eddy found some difficulty trying to take it out of Steve's hand. "Come on let go. Let go. There's a good boy."
"Well, where is the doctor?" Steve crossed his arms as his face turned red.
"The truth is, I heard he was last seen in Mexico." Eddy folded the check and put it into his pocket. Taking his money, Eddy skipped away into the night.
"Looks like where we're going to Mexico." Steve shrugged.
"Dr. Boskonovitch is not in Mexico." Bart leaned back against a brick wall. "Eddy was lying to us the whole time."
"What makes you say that?" Steve asked in befuddlement.
"After every sentence, Eddy licked his lips and scratched his neck. Not only that, but he never looked you in the eye. Some people have a habit that helps them think. Eddy's behavior had a definite pattern. Believe me Steve, Dr. Boskonovitch is not in Mexico." Bart announced.
"That snake, he used me." Steve frowned.
"Now Steve, his eyes didn't waver when he talked about his master. Something tells me Eddy really needed it. Besides, he probably wouldn't tell us where the doctor is even at death point." Bart began scratching his furiously. "We have to see this logically, who was the closest person to Dr. Boskonovitch?"
"That would be Yoshimitsu, but no one knows where he is." Steve said out loud in impatience.
"Who else is close to Dr. Boskonovitch?" Eddy asked.
"Well no one really." Steve answered.
"Well who were his enemies?" Bart asked.
"He didn't really have any. According to my research all he did was a couple of experiments. He is the reason I was born, so if there is anyone in the world that knows who my father is, it should be him." Steve bit his lip.
"Do you know who is enemies were?" Bart asked.
"Yes, but why does that matter?" Steve began to grow tiresome.
"Just tell me who is enemies were." Bart sat down and began to think.
"Yoshimitsu told me that a man named Bryan Fury was in Boskonovitch's lab and destroyed the place. He also told me that Heihachi was his enemy." Steve answered.
"Think about your sentence, Bryan Fury destroyed Dr. Boskonovitch's lab. If Bryan Fury was in his lab, he would probably know where Boskonovitch is living right now." Bart pointed out.
"Well no one knows where Bryan Fury is, so how does that help us?" Steve became exasperated.
"Think about it, Bryan was a contestant in the tournament you participated in. It is only logical that the one who hosted the tournament would probably know the location of most of the tournament fighters. Since most of the people do not know much about Fury, he must have been directly contacted by the tournament officials." Bart smiled.
"So we find the tournament host, then we find Fury, who in turn shows us where doctor is." Steve laughed. "The tournament host is Heihachi, it won't be hard finding him. We got to go to Japan."
"Heihachi is too powerful to get to. We need to find someone who would know a lot about the tournament officials. No, we are not going to Japan. We are going to Mexico." Bart replied.
"You just said Boskonovitch wasn't in Mexico." Steve inquired.
"I know, but if you want to find him, we first have to go and find some of the participants in the tournament. We use them to find some of the officials to discover Bryan Fury and then we find Dr. Boskonovitch." Bart tapped his cane.
