A/N: Awww, no reviews for the last chappie? Oh well, even if nobody reviewed, I'm still gonna keep updating :P Don't be fooled by the title, this isnt the last chapter. I tweaked the end of the fight a little because of a request one of my friends gave me.
Chapter 11: The end of the line
The next day, Xiaoyu and Asuka arrived at their usual table. "Hey Xiao, we were just talking about you." Hwoarang said. "I told him about your little situation Xiao." Julia said. Xiaoyu and Asuka took their seats. "Why the hell didn't you tell us earlier?" Hwoarang asked, a little angry because she didn't say anything before. "I didn't want to get you guys worried and besides, I might just be paranoid." Xiaoyu argued back. "You could've gotten killed and we wouldn't know why!" Hwoarang said, raising his voice a little. "Hwoarang, calm down." Asuka said. "Yeah, and be a little less…loud." Julia said. Hwoarang sighed. "Don't you ever hide something like that from us again, Xiao." Hwoarang said, trying to sound annoyed but she could hear the concern in his voice. "So, who's up against who?" Asuka said. Everyone took a look at their sheets. Julia and Hwoarang gasped at the same time. "What's wrong?" Asuka asked. "We're fighting each other." Julia and Hwoarang said simultaneously. "Well, it's time to see which one of you two is the better fighter?" Xiaoyu said. "I think we already know who that is." Hwoarang said, smoothing down his hair. "Yeah, you better watch out, Hwoarang." Julia said. "I'm fighting him…"Asuka said, sounding dark. "Who?" Hwoarang asked. "The man who sent my father to hospital…Feng Wei."
"Well, I am absolutely sure you can kick his ass all the way to the moon and back!" Xiaoyu shouted enthusiastically. "I'm not that entirely sure. He had severely injured my father…I am his pupil…I might not be able to do it." Asuka said sounding a little worried. She has come this far and now, she doubted herself. "Don't say things like that Asuka. You can totally waste this guy." Hwoarang said. "How do you know? You haven't seen me fight!" Asuka argued. This had definitely shut everyone up. They haven't seen her fight before so they don't know how good she is. "Well, if you got an invitation to enter this tournament, you must be good." Xiaoyu said. "Well, I'll give it my best and if I lose, I would be pretty bummed for quite a while." Asuka said, slowly starting to smile. "I'm up against Kazuya." Xiaoyu said, knowing everybody's reaction to this. "Kazuya Mishima?" Julia asked making sure that this was the same Kazuya she was talking about. Xiaoyu nodded. "I don't know about this. Xiao. That guy might have some issues but he's one helluva fighter. This will probably be one of your toughest matches yet." Hwoarang said. "Great, I'm fighting the guy I'm trying to save. Now doesn't that suck?" Xiaoyu said casually. "Don't take him lightly, Xiao." Julia said seriously. "Yeah, I know. He packs one helluva punch but all I gotta do is try my best and hopefully, I won't get beaten up too bad." Xiaoyu said and smiled weakly. After they've finished their breakfast. "Well, we gotta go train. Our match is up first." Hwoarang said, standing up. "Yeah. Say hi to Steve for us, ok?" Julia said, standing up as well. "Sure." Asuka said. "Good luck to the both of you." Xiaoyu shouted as they started making their way to the elevator. "Well, let's head over to see Steve." Asuka said, standing up "And don't forget my Grandpa." Xiaoyu said, standing up as well. The two of them exited the hotel and took a taxi to the hospital.
It was now late afternoon. Xiaoyu was making her way up flights of stairs to reach the roof. This is pathetic, Xiao. You should have more energy than that, Xiaoyu thought as she began to feel a little bit tired from the climb. Finally, she had reached the top. She was awed by the height of this building and the height of many others as she looked down from the edge. She turned away from the edge of the building and saw her opponent, Kazuya, facing the other way. "Ling Xiaoyu vs Kazuya Mishima." The tournament official yelled through a megaphone, even though that was completely unnecessary. Kazuya had turned to face Xiaoyu. When he saw her face, he gasped in shock but then that turned into a look of pure hatred. Why does he seem so angry at me? Xiaoyu thought as she saw his face. She vigorously shook her head and got into her fighting stance. Kazuya got into his. "Ready? FIGHT!"
Kazuya didn't wait a second as he rushed up to Xiaoyu and performed a deadly 4 hit combination. When the last punch was dealt to her right side, Xiaoyu started to slowly fall to the ground. Kazuya didn't give her a chance though and he performed two low spinning kicks, making her airborne. Following this, he did a punch combo and finished it off with a right splits kick. When Xiaoyu hit the ground, she could feel it cracking beneath her, which gave more pain to her back. Xiaoyu quickly rolled back, feeling pain everywhere. Man, this guy is strong! I've gotta land at least one attack on him, Xiaoyu thought. She decided to perform a juggle of her own. She performed a back flip, which got Kazuya in the air. Following that, she did two slaps, which got her into reverse stance, two backhand slaps and part of her usual combo. Kazuya didn't seem fazed by her combo. Kazuya then started spinning around on the ground, lightning coursing through him. Xiaoyu was wondering what he was doing but then remembered that Jin performed this move when they used to spar together. It was his powerup move. A smirk spread across Xiaoyu's face as she started to walk behind him, hands facing towards him. When he had unleashed his uppercut, a circle of yellow energy formed around Xiaoyu and she unleashed her powerup move. It hit him right in the back. Yes! I think I've got this match now! Xiaoyu thought, but after that powerup, she felt a little tired. I think I spoke too soon. Kazuya got up and seeing how tired Xiaoyu was, a smirk spread across his face. He performed a fast uppercut at Xiaoyu, screaming "DORYA!" as he performed it.
Xiaoyu felt too weak to get up. "Kazuya Mishima is the victor." The tournament official said. Kazuya didn't think this was over though. Before the paramedic could look at her, he walked up to Xiaoyu's fallen body, grabbed her wrist, dragged her across the concrete ground and held her over the edge of the building. "Mr Mishima, what are you doing?" The official exclaimed. "What are you doing, Mr Mishima?" Xiaoyu asked, her voice hoarse and broken. "I'm doing to you what you did to me all those years ago." Kazuya said, his voice sounding menacing. "What do you mean? I only saw you for the first time last tournament." Xiaoyu said, wanting to find out why he's doing this to her. "Don't play dumb with me, girl. I know it was you who did this to me thirty seven years ago." Kazuya hissed. "Thirty seven years? I wasn't even born then. You've got to believe me Mr. Mishima, I'm not the person you're after!" Xiaoyu shouted, desperately trying to get herself out of this situation. Kazuya looked away for a second, thinking this through. He threw her back onto the roof like a rag doll. "You're lucky I didn't end it there." Kazuya said dangerously and exited the scene. Xiaoyu got on one knee, trying to at least stand up. When the paramedic was going to help her, Xiaoyu said: "No, I'm fine." In the end, Xiaoyu did manage to stand up and she made her way back down the flights of stairs with difficulty. She finally made it to the limousine and when she sat inside it, waiting for it to take her back to the hotel, she wondered what on earth Kazuya was talking about.
A/N: Well, it seems the tournament has come to an end for Xiaoyu. This isn't the end of the story though so you should expect more from me. Why on earth did Kazuya do what he did? Let's see if you can guess why through your reviews…you won't be finding out next chappie tho….or maybe the next one….or the next one…..but you will find out, if you keep reading!
