Chapter 6

Terry, Blue Mary and Kyo headed to a snack bar to grab some sodas to drink when Mary's cellular phone ringed.

"could you excuse me for a moment you guys?" asked Mary has she leaved to a place where she could get a better signal.

Terry took that moment to have a talk with Kyo. "So Kyo, what is the matter?"

"What do you mean?"

"I know you are upset man, every one has been worry about you ever since the end of KOF 1997 when Yuki die and then you got kidnapped by NEST, so I believe that you have a lot on your mind."

Was it obvious to every one, thought Kyo, but he knows that Terry is right. "Well…. Every one knows that I am devastated about Yukie's death, which is no surprise to every one….but…..I am afraid…."

"Afraid? What do you mean?"

"Well….there is this girl I know……she is a very strong person, and different, I believe that is what attracted me to her, but considering of what happen to me….I'm afraid of getting hurt again…. I'm afraid of passing through that pain again." Said Kyo with a lot of emotional difficulty.

Terry tapped Kyo on the shoulder. "I know exactly how you feel, Kyo. I've been through the same thing."

Kyo looked back at Terry. "What do you mean?"

"The first time I entered in the KOF was in 1991, and I met this girl named Lili."

"Lili? You mean Billy Kane's sister?" interrupted Kyo.

"No, that is another person. Like I was saying I met Lili when I first participated in the KOF, she was a women trying to break free from her golden cage" Terry took a pause to take a drink. "She worked for Geese, but she ended up risking her life to help me, witch resulted in her death." Terry took another pause, recuperating from that terrible memory "then a year later, after I beat Krauser in the KOF 1992, I meat this Girl named Sulia who asked my help to fight her twin brother Laugorn, who was gathering some magical armours that would give him incredible power, let's just say that he was almost has powerful has Orochi."

"An armour would give a person such power?"

"Yes, but Laugorn has managed to all the armours, it was impossible for me to beat him, but the armour has made the connection between Sulia and Laugorn stronger, making them life connected, so she end up killing her self to save me….."

Kyo understood something by Terry's silence. "You ended up falling in love for her as well, right?"

Terry silence said it all.

Kyo was shocked and surprised, he knows that Terry is a living legend, but he never though that he had suffered so much. "I don't understand Terry, you lost two women that you loved, so how do you manage to get to live your life with Blue Mary considering all the bad things that has happen to you?"

Has a response, Terry let out a small laugh. "Simple my friend, Lili and Sulia risked their lives to save me, and I know that I would be dishonouring their memories if I didn't live my life." Then he turns to Kyo. "And I believe that if you don't live your life Kyo, and try to find your own happiness, you will be dishonouring Yuki's memory, and she loved you so much, I don't think that she will be pleased to know that you are letting the past destroying you."

Kyo was speechless, but he knows that Terry is right. "Your….your right!"

In that Moment Blue Mary appears. "Hey Terry! My captain just called, he said that he might have seen some NEST people near the dock!"

"Alright then let's get going!" Terry turned his head to Kyo and gave him a thumbs up, "Until next time Kyo." And left with Blue Mary.

Kyo returned that thumbs up to Terry. "Until next time Terry, and thanks." Now he knows what to do.

In Geese Tower

Billy entered Geese office and found him looking at the window, lost in his thoughts. "Mr. Geese I have returned!"

Geese remained in his same spot. "You're late Billy!"

"Forgive me sir, but my sister wanted to make a quick stop on a certain place and….."

"Never mind that! Did you have the reports from the lab boys?"

"Yes sir." And Billy passed some files he has on his hand.

Geese took the files and started to read them. "So what did they say?"

"It was a little difficult for them to get a perfect DNA from Ignis himself when he fought all the other fighters, so our spies managed to get dome from his personal chambers. And it's how you suspected Mr Geese, Ignis also had the Orochi blood in him."

Geese let out a sinister chuckle "Has I suspected, I wondered why Ignis attacks were purple like the followers of Orochi, but now my suspicions are confirmed. Ignis was just like Yamazaki, he has the Orochi blood, but like him he was not in full position of it. So Ignis created NEST so he could create machines that could help him improve his Orochi abilities."

"Namely he made machines that could absolve the fighting data of the fighters so that he could pass to himself, to become strong."

"Exactly, but NEST was a burden, it needed to be destroyed, but I believed that they could have some more information about more fighters that could have the power of Orochi in them. That is why I send my spies to infiltrate their secret HQ"

"More fighters with Orochi blood in them? But sir, the last ones that have the power of Orochi are all dead, only Iori, Leona and Yamazaki remains and their powers are not much of a use to us."

Geese picks up his glass of vine. "That is what we all believe, but how did you explain that Ignis also had that power as well?"

Billy remained in silence before he finally understood. "So it's possible that there are more people with Orochi blood and we don't know about it."

"Exactly, that is why you will take part in the next KOF tournament. It might be quite possible that we might find more fighters with the Orochi blood in the next tournament, also loyal followers to try to bring Orochi back."

"I see, I remember when we defeated Orochi, he said that he might return, and it's quite possible that more followers might try to bring him back. Will you also be participating, Mr Geese?"

"No!" said Geese in one of his dangerous voices.

Billy understands why, Geese Howard was the man who created the great tournament King of Fighters, but ever since he lost against Terry Bogard he lost his legacy over it, and now any one can organize the tournament for their own pleasure, like Rugal and many others. in the KOF 1996 Geese participated in the tournament to find some information about Orochi from Chizuru, he teamed up with his haft brother Krauser, who also wanted his revenge on Terry, and with Mr. Big who worked for Geese, but in the end of the tournament Mr. Big try to kill him because he didn't enjoy to be used like this. But Geese pride was deeply hurt when he participated in the same tournament he created like a mere participant. That hurt his pride, and his honour. "But with who will I team up this time?"

"Well, one of your team mates will be Yamazaki."

"What?" Billy didn't like the idea of teaming up with that lunatic again. "But sir; I must protest, Yamazaki almost tried to kill us the last time we allowed him to join us."

"I know that Billy, but he might still be useful for me." That was Geese simple reply has he sits on his chair and passes some files to Billy. "In these files you will find information about a Chinese killer name Gato, all his history, all his jobs, and even the location of his baby sister. I want you to find him and force him to join us, if you succeed he will be you new team mate in the next tournament, and his killing abilities will prove most useful to us. Now go!"

"Yes Mr Geese." Said Billy respectfully has he exits Geese office.

Has for Geese he looks back to the window, and crashes the cup of wine with his devastating power. "If I can find the secret of the Orochi power I will be more than just the Immortal Geese, I will become so powerful that no man will be able to defeat me, witch it will be a enormous happiness for me, I will be able to have my revenge on Terry and the other KOF fighters once and for all."

To be continue…….
