Note: Hi! Sorry it's been so long but since I spent this summer at my grandma's I haven't been able to update (she doesn't have a computer). But I'm back! The rating's changed because of this next chapter so sorry to those of you who have great respect for Xiao...Anyway, let's continue...

Chapter 9: Treasure turns to Trash

Wang Jinrey's home was set a blaze with swearing. Never had Panda heard such language come from the old man's mouth. Out of boredom from his repetitive use of all 13 bad words, Panda checks the mail and finds only 1 letter addressed from the Mishima Zaibatsu. She figured it was an invitation to another tournament, but she guessed wrong.

When she opened it, she first read the Dear Xiao part and frantically shoved it back into the envelope.

"Panda? Anything for me in the mail?" called Jinrey.

Panda shook her head furiously and opened the envelope again. As she read the letter something disturbed her. The last part was scratched up and the sentence was far too vulgar to be Jin's writing. Her intuiton told her that Xiaoyu was in trouble, so the bear stuck the letter in her mouth and valiantly galloped away from the house to find Xiao.

While going back inside the house, Jinrey turned around and witnessed the bear leave. More curse words followed soon after...

"Um, excuse me...sir...ma'am...anyone?" Xiao was ever persisitent in her search.

She still didn't know the girl's name, what she looked like or even where she was. This aggravated her, and she realized she was getting nowhere by aimlessly searching all over Japan.

"I guess the best thing I can do is find Jin. I wonder where he is..."

As she pondered over her next move, a large black car came zooming passed her. Her skirt flew up revealing her undergarments. The car came back and she hastefully pulled her skirt back down.

"What do you want you pervs!" demanded Xiao while glaring at the window.

There were several suits inside the vehicle and only one of them stepped out. He was the tallest and ugliest of these men, and without hesitation he approached her.

"Your name Ling Xiaoyu?" his speech was far from glamourous.

Xiao nodded her head nervously and shrieked in fear as the man scooped her up and threw her into the car.

"HELLLLLLP!" she cried while violently slapping red across the goon's face.

Another man pulled her face to his. "We're going to ask that you don't scream and that you hear us out."

"Why should I! I'm a ward of the Mishima Zaibatsu and if you don't let me out I swear I'll kick your-"

The man flashed his emblem to her. Xiao gasped.

"You guys...are from from the empire..." she said with relief. "then why have you captured me?"

They remained silent for a while. Xiao broke it.

"Hey, answer me! I have a right to know why my best friend's father is abducting me!"

"The Master has been waiting for you. Your to be his mistress."

Mistress? thought Xiao. How could Jin's dad even think that way?

After driving about for hours, they arrived at around 7:00 that night. Xiao had fallen asleep but was quickly awakened by the big guy. She wiped drool from her mouth and got out of the car.

"Master see you now. You go in." stated the man.

"Well, good. Maybe I can get some answers."

Two other suits let her into the building and through that really long elevator ride. However, they didn't go all the way to the top. Their destination was at floor 100- once Heihachi's training room now changed into a personal 'area' by Jin.

The two men herded Xiao out of the elevator and closed the door before she could even ask a question. Completely lost and confused, Xiao began to wander around the area for a few minutes.

Curiousity took over her common sense (like she had any...) and she shows intrest a tiger figurine.

"Awww, this is cute!" she sighed while fiddling with the tiger's head.

Unaware of her own strength, Xiaoyu pressed on the figure too hard and the head came off.

"Oops! Oh, come on go back on!" she hushed.

Someone was coming. Licking on it and sticking it back didn't work so she simply got on her knees and started crying.

"I'm so sorry Mr. Mishima! I broke your cute tiger thingy and...huh?"

Whoever it was made chills run up and down her spine. Someone was behind her and she got up and back away.

"Uh, you wanted to see me sir?"

The man chuckled. "No need for formalities Ling. Your in good hands."

The girl immediately recognized his voice. She giggled then ran and grabbed him.

"Jin! You're okay!" her voice was filled with excitement.

He wrapped his arms around her. "Why wouldn't I be? I'm assuming you got my letter then?"

She pulled away and shook her head.

"It's just as well. There was something in it I didn't want you to see...at least not yet."

"What was in it Jin? Was it a present!" she hopped up and down.

"...No...I said something I probably shouldn't have. Your grandfather's going to be very upset with me..."

Worried now by his voice, Xiao gave Jin a light hug. "Whatever it is I'm sure it's nothing of concern. But the real reason I came here is beacause of our little mission."

"Oh, that." Jin said plainly. "For now we can forget about it. I just want to spend time with you."

Ambitious, he moved his hand down a little towards her rump but was interrupted by her speaking.

"We can't just forget about it. This girl...something about her doesn't sit right with me, and I'm not resting until-"

He silenced her with his lips. The girl's eyes bulged with surprise as she was taken into his arms. This is the one thing she dreamed about but could never really see. It wasn't long before she found herself lying face up on his bed.

Her eyes only cracked open to see his intense expression. Those thick eyebrows frightened her as they arched in the same manner as Kazuya's. Fear and desire fought amongst themselves as Jin removed his shirt, his muscles brimming with gold. He slowly crawled over her, giving a loving but sinister smirk.

"Jin..." she whispered. "I don't think..."

"Why don't you, Xiao? I've sensed something between us since that day we met in high school. Your no longer my friend, Ling Xiaoyu."

The girl's eyes flashed open. Everything connected and his act of ripping her blouse triggered a sudden reaction.

"That's enough!" yipped Xiao as she shoved Jin off her.

"What the fuck are you doing!" snapped Jin.

"What am I doing! You're the one who's lost his mind! Just what were you planning on doing with me?"

Out of nowhere, Jin starts cackling fiendishly. Xiao balls her fists.

"What do you think, foolish girl! Now that I have everything my father ever owned the only thing left for me to do is claim what's been mine all these years-you! Everyone in this building has been sent home. It's just you and me..."

The depth of his voice, the look in his eye. Jin never acted this way towards her. He was always a boy friend...nothing more. Yet deep inside Xiao knew she was in love with him, and she refused to let him go.

"I won't lie to you Jin. I too have felt things these past few years. But this isn't like you at all. It's as if you've been possessed...like your father."

"The nerve! Don't ever compare me to him! Regardless, if you feel the same way about me then prove it!"

He came back to her like a ravenous dog and even acted as such. There was no hint of love in his actions, just pure lust. This didn't bode well for the girl. To show his dominance he pinned Xiao against a wall and trailed his tongue across her neck.

"S-stop...Jin please...STOP!" her voice was higher than a dying cat.

He didn't care.There was no way he'd allow her to escape him again. There was only one way to get out of pain this scary, so she did what she had to.

Her leg ricocheted off the ground and right into Jin's manhood. He instantly scrunched himself into a ball and bared his teeth.

"I own you, dammit! I own-" his head jerked back.

Xiao had slapped Jin into submission. He didn't move, for a second it looked like he'd stopped breathing. Fearing the worst, she left him there on the floor and abandoned the Mishima Zaibatsu.

Rain fell heavy that night as Xiao kept running and running, trying so hard to get away from the horror she expierienced. There was no way she could ever trust Jin after that-not any man. When she felt all was safe, Xiao bawled away.

"I can't believe Jin would do something like that! And to think I wanted to help that jerk..."

The tears slowed down, and she prepared herself to leave and never look back a thundering sound trudged down the street. After what just happened she was not in the mood for anything else.

As the noise came closer she got into her fighting stance, eyes narrowed to focus on whatever was coming. The sound couldn't be heard when she did this, so she tiptoed forward.

"Come out!" she demanded.

Whatever it was it did reveal itself-as Panda. Relieved, Xiaoyu greets her beloved pet with open arms.

"Oh, Panda! It's been awful, just unspeakable! Jin...he...I mean we almost-"

Panda nudged at her hand with the letter in her mouth. Xiao took hold of it and opened the letter.

"This letter...it's from Jin, right?" she asked.

Panda nodded her head vigorously. Once she did, Xiao violently ripped it into pieces. Panda cried out to her.

"I don't even want to know what he has to say! After what he tried to do to me...do you not see this!" she showed her ripped blouse.

Panda bent her ears back. She'd expected something bad to happen but nothing like this. But she knew it wasn't Jin's doing. The blood inside him was doing battle against tiself and would eventually kill him unless an intervention was made. The only way Panda could do this was to place the faith back in Xiao.

"We're leaving Panda. Grandpa was right...I hate it when he's right!"

When she tried to run away, Panda pushed her back.

"Panda, what's wrong with you? I know you don't want to leave but we can't stay here anymore."

In desperation, Panda leaped on top of the girl and shook her head.

"Aiya! Panda get of me your too big!" she fought to shove the bear off but to no avail. "Panda!"

She whined loudly and climbed off Xiao, a dissappointed look on her face.

"I don't see why you want to stay here, Panda. If we don't leave things will only get worse between Jin and me, and I know your tired of Kuma always hitting on you. Just forget about this place, okay?"

Reluctantly, Panda nodded.

"Aaah...achoo! Oh great now I have a cold! Let's hurry and go home before grandpa get's madder than he already is."

Xiao bundled up close to Panda and powerwalked down the street. Panda couldn't help be feel it was her duty to bring Xiao and Jin back together, but how would she go about doing it? More importantly, could she pull it off in time?
