Chapter 31

Uncertain Memories

(Uncertain Memories is a song by Gackt Camui, I do not own the title or the song…and I don't own Gackt either.)

Yuu and Miharu were with Kazumi. She was taking them to the G Corporation's base. They hadn't got any news, so Kazumi had decided to go there. Yuu and Miharu had never seen a secret base before and they were really surprised.

-'This is one of our most important bases…'-Kazumi said entering a cave.

-'Inside this cave?'-Yuu asked.

-'Yes! You'll see!'

Once inside, Yuu and Miharu were absolutely astonished with all the technology there. Kira met them and she immediately gave a cold glace to Kazumi.

-'What were you thinking of?'-Kira asked.-'You shouldn't bring them here!'

-'They're not our enemies!'-Kazumi replied.

-'When Lee finds out he'll be furious with you!'

-'We don't have any news on the others…what's happening?'

-'I don't know…'

-'We received a message…'-a man in a blue uniform said calling Kira.

-'From who?'

-'Miss Williams…she's asking permission to land and to come here!'

Kira left in a hurry and she returned ten minutes later with Dr.B and a medical team.

-'What's happening?'-Yuu asked.

-'I'll check it out!'-Kazumi said leaving with the medical team.

When they returned, Kira and Nina were arguing and they didn't even notice Yuu and Miharu right in front of them. Kazumi came next.

-'Something happened in Mishima…I think someone is hurt…'

Miharu's heart jumped when she thought that Steve could be that person. But then he arrived.

She hugged him, but she noticed immediately that something was wrong.

-'What happened?'-she asked.

Anna sat down on a white couch and crossed her arms.

-'I'm tired…and thirsty…boy can you bring me a brandy, or maybe a whisky?'-she said to Yuu.

He looked at her with a narrow look.

-'Ignore her…'-Steve said.-'She's so annoying…'

-'Is that Hwoarang?'-Miharu asked watching Hwoarang being carried by Paul and Baek.

-'Yes…'-Steve answered.

-'Is he alright?'

-'He's just unconscious.'

Miharu watched Christie and Eddie arriving too. She realised that Christie was still crying. When Miharu was going to ask her friend what was wrong, Steve pulled her back.

-'I'll explain…'-he said.

He told everything he could remember to Yuu, Kazumi and Miharu and when he finished he sat down.

Kazumi was the first to react.

-'I'll be right back.'-she said.-'I need to know what Kira will do…'-she left and Miharu sat down next to Steve.

-'This is a nightmare, right?'-she asked sadly.-'Julia is fine and the others will be here soon!'-Miharu said trying to convince herself that everything was alright.

-'I'm afraid not…'

-'But…how can Heihachi be alive?'-Yuu asked.

-'I have no idea…but Raven said he had seen him…'

-'Do you think Jin and Ling are still alive?'-Miharu asked.

-'Yeah…I don't think he'll kill them…'-Steve answered.

-'First he needs the devil gene!'-Jinrei announced.

-'You're master Wang…why did you do that to Ling?'-Miharu asked.

-'This wasn't supposed to happen; Jinpachi gave his word that Xiao would be alright!'

-'But she's not alright, is she?'

-'No, she's not. But I still have hope!'

Reunited with Lei, Dr.B, Paul and Nina; Kira was trying to decide what to do. She was the one giving orders when Lee wasn't there.

-'Ok…first we need to find them!'-she said.

-'They were in a military helicopter.'-Lei announced.

-'Shit…those helicopters don't have serial numbers…they can't be traced.'

-'What about Lee's cell phone?'-Nina asked.

-'That's it! The GPS!'-Kira said.-'Let me see…'

She went to the computer and started working.

-'Oh my God…you won't believe this!'-she said after a few minutes.

-'What?'-Paul asked.

-'They're here…in Fuji!'-she said.-'I'm picking up Lee's signal not very far from here!'

-'Is there any military base around here?'-Lei asked.

-'I'm checking that out…Yes…there is. They must be there!'

-'Will you send a team?'-Nina asked.

-'Of course.'

-'I want to be in it!'

Kira looked at her intensively.

-'Are you sure?'

-'Yes!'

-'Fine! But you'll have to stay in contact with me…'

-'Alright!'

-'We're going too!'-Lei said. Paul nodded.

-'Ok, I'll provide guns and vests…just in case.'-Kira said.-'Prepare yourselves while I study the base plant to help you getting in.'

Paul, Nina and Lei left to warn the others.

-'Are you really going to do this?'-Dr.B asked Kira.

-'What?'

-'Help the police? Don't you know that Lei Wulong is a detective…?'

-'Do I have a choice? Lee is Heihachi's prisoner! Heihachi is probably so furious with him that he'll not hesitate to kill him!'

-'He can be dead as we speak…'

-'I know that. That's why I'm sending a team! Lee is our leader, I can't let him down!'

Lei walked in the room where Hwoarang was lying in a bed. Baek was there too.

-'How is he?'-Lei asked.

-'He'll be ok. He's like that due to the inhalation of too much smoke, but he'll be fine…'

-'Good…he'll need support when he wakes up.'

-'I know…I don't know what to tell him to comfort him when the time comes.'

-'We're going to search for the others!'

-'Where?'

-'They're here in Fuji, in a military base.'

-'I want to go too!'

-'You better stay here…Hwoarang will need you…'

-'I want to punish the bastard that provoked Julia's death!'

-'I understand! But…you're his master!'

-'I'm going…besides, the doctor said he'll only wake up in a couple of hours.'

-'Ok…suit yourself.'

Baek looked at Hwoarang and left, closing the door behind him.

In the meanwhile, Heihachi had arrived to Fuji and he was taking Ling to a cave. The passage was illuminated by fire; it was obvious that Heihachi didn't have time to settle the details. That cave was where the army kept the guns, but Heihachi had re-decorated it, and after going down the stairs, there was a heavy door.

Once inside, Jin, Kazuya, Lee and Jinpachi were all lying in separate beds. There was also a machine, similar to the genotransfer, but this one was bigger.

Jinpachi was the first one to wake up. He immediately recognised his son.

-'Hi father…you shouldn't be here!'-Heihachi said.-'But since you are, I guess you'll be useful to me!'

-'I had a feeling that you were alive!'

-'Really?'

-'Yeah…after all you're my son. So, what have you been doing?'

-'Nothing much…I just want what's mine!'

-'And what's that?'

-'You know very well…the Mishima Zaibatsu is mine! Not yours or these sentimental fools!'

-'So you think you're better than we are?'

-'Absolutely!'

-'Well…that's why this family fell apart! It was because of you and your ambitions! You started a war between all the members of this family!'

-'It wasn't my fault! It was yours!'

-'No way…you killed Seichi, you tried to kill me, and later you tried to kill your own son! What kind of a father are you?'

-'I didn't mean to kill Kazuya! He pushed me into it! I didn't want to fight him in the first place! That's why I sent Nina…'

-'Don't give me crap! What about Jin? You tried to kill him too!'

-'Jin is a fool! I would spare his life…but there wasn't time to rebuild a new machine! I needed the devil gene! And I didn't kill Seichi!'

-'Don't speak his name!'

-'He was my brother! I was sixteen, it was an accident!'

-'Fine! What about me? Was I an accident too?'

-'No! You were a stupid old fool, who were willing to sell our own businesses to your partners! We would lose everything…'

-'Your ambition has no limits!'

-'No…it doesn't! You created me…you know?'

-'What's that supposed to mean?'

-'After Seichi's death, you abandoned me…you went to China on your own, to ask advice, to meditate and find your inner peace and all that crap! Did you ever think of me? NO! You never thought about me…'

-'You were ok…'

-'No, I wasn't! I had just lost my brother! And suddenly you left and I had to stay in your place…I had to take care of everything for you! And you know what? Soon, I forgot what pain was…all I wanted was power and money! So, you created me…you made me this way!'

-'I guess I did…'

-'Well, now it's too late and I need the devil gene…then I will watch you die and after that everything will be mine again! So lets get on with this!'

-'You'll never have the devil gene!'

-'We'll see about that, father…I'll start with Jin!'

Heihachi was going to prepare Jin to the gene transference, when someone interfered.

Asuka was now in his way. She was afraid, but she wasn't a coward and she would do anything to save Jin.

-'I won't let you hurt Jin or Ling…they are my friends…'-Asuka said in her fighting stance.

-'Oh…great! You know what little girl? I had enough of you Kazamas…'

-'You're Jin's grandfather…how can you do this to your own family?'

-'You wouldn't understand…'

-'Try me!'

-'Look…I deserve this gene…I deserve their power! Now get out of my way!'

-'No! I thought for years that my father was my only family. Now I found Jin! I won't let you take him away from me!'

-'That's really sweet…but do you really know who your precious Jin is?'

-'Yes…he's my cousin and a good friend! And you put him through a lot of pain!'

-'Jin's a monster!'

-'No, he's not…'

-'He didn't tell you, did he?'

-'Tell me what?'

-'About the devil gene.'

-'Devil gene?'

-'Yes…except for me and Lee, all the Mishimas have it! It gives us powers! Huge powers!'

-'That doesn't mean he's a monster!'

-'Yes, it does, because if you can't control it, you can end up hurting or even killing the ones you love!'

-'No, you're lying!'

-'No, I'm not! When Jin loses control he becomes a monster! So you better leave this place while you can!'

-'I don't care…I won't let you take my family away!'

-'You are getting on my nerves…'

-'You don't have a choice but to fight me!'-Asuka said. Actually she was trying to buy some time, because she was hoping that someone would arrive to help her.

-'Since you are so egger to meet your family…I will grant your wish, little girl!'

-'What?'

-'Mr. Ichise…send her to me!'-Heihachi said on his cell phone.

Asuka didn't know what was happening, but she had the feeling she would be in troubles soon.

-'Look…she's here!'-Heihachi said.

Asuka turned around and saw a woman with black hair and white top and pants walking in the room. After that, the heavy door was closed.

Asuka recognised her immediately from her dreams.

-'This is Jun Kazama…I'll leave you two alone!'

-'Jun…Kazama…you're Jin's mother! You're my aunt!'-Asuka said.

Jun didn't answer.

-'Oh…by the way…she doesn't remember who she is. She has amnesia…and she only does what I say! So…Jun, this girl is our enemy, please get rid of her, will you?'

-'Yes, sir!'-Jun answered.

-'I can't fight you! You're Jin's mother!'-Asuka said.

In the meanwhile two jeeps had left the G Corporation. Nina, Anna, Baek, Paul, Lei, Eddie and Steve were on their way to rescue Jin and to help Asuka. Eddie was having a rough trip, since he was sitting right next to Anna and she wouldn't stop talking.

-'Anna…if you don't shut up, I swear I'll use my gun!'-Nina warned.

-'Yeah…right!'

-'I'm serious! Why didn't you stay in the base?'

-'Because I won't let you get away with this! We have to fight, remember?'

-'Fine! Just shut up!'

-'So…Steve…do you miss your parents?'-Anna asked turning to Steve.

-'Anna…'-Nina warned again.

-'Fine! I'll shut up!'

When they could see the military base, they stopped the jeeps and got out slowly.

-'They have to be in there…Kira said there's a sub-level in this base too…we know that Heihachi likes to go under ground, so we better start there!'-Nina announced.

-'We can't go in all at the same time. We will be seen!'-Paul said.

-'I'll go first!'-Nina said.

-'No way!'-Anna pulled her arm.-'If you die, I won't be able to defeat you!'

-'What the hell…are you crazy?'

-'No! Someone else can go!'

-'Let go of my arm Anna…'

-'You won't go first…'

-'I know how to avoid…'

Nina didn't finish her sentence; because Steve tired of hearing them arguing had stepped forward and entered the military base perimeter. He immediately set the sentinels on. Three of them fired their guns.

Anna, who was closest to Steve, pulled him back and she fell on him.

Paul, Baek and Lei managed to unarm the sentinels and they returned to see if everyone was alright.

Anna's purple shirt was covered in red and she was holding her stomach.

-'Anna! Are you alright?'-Nina asked.

Anna looked ate her shirt full of blood, but she couldn't feel any pain.

-'It's not mine…'-she finally said.

-'What?'

-'It's not my blood.'

Anna and Nina looked at Steve, who wasn't moving.

-'Steve!'-Nina shouted.-'Steve…wake up!'

-'What happened?'-Lei asked.

-'He was shot!'-Nina said.

Lei knelt down and opened Steve's shirt to see if he was seriously injured.

-'The wound is near the lungs…I don't know if the bullet hit one of the lungs…if it did, he needs to go to a hospital fast!'-Lei said.

-'Anna, press his wound, now!'-Nina ordered.-'He's losing too much blood.'

-'You need to go back.'-Paul said.-'We're going in…without you!'

-'But…I need to…'-Nina started.

-'We'll manage.'-Baek said.

-'You have to stay with him and take him to somewhere he can be assisted.'-Eddie said.-'Don't waste time!'

-'Ok!'

Baek, Eddie, Paul and Lei left, and they managed to get in the base easily. Inside there were more soldiers to knock out.

-'Nina…he's still bleeding a lot!'

-'I know…'-Nina said trying to check his pulse.-'He's alive…we need to take him to the jeep.'

In the meanwhile, Asuka was trying to block all of Jun's strikes. Sometimes it was hard, because Jun was a really good fighter. She had hit Asuka twice with a cherry blossom, which was a very powerful strike.

-'Please…can't you remember Jin or Kazuya?'

-'No…'-Jun answered coming at her again and throwing a low kick.

-'Jin's your son! And that maniac is going to kill him as soon as he turns on that machine!'

-'You're my enemy!'

-'No! I'm not your enemy! You asked me for help! You said I'm a Kazama and I had to protect your son!'

Heihachi was putting some wires in Jin's chest to connect him to the machine.

-'Please…listen to me! Look at Jin! Look at your son!'

Asuka was now on the floor, but finally she had made Jun look at Jin, who was still unconscious.

-'You hold Jin when he was a baby…remember?'-Asuka said.

-'Jin…'

Suddenly, Jun was blinded by a flash of memories. She couldn't understand what that was, but she could see a baby in a man's arms.

Flashback

-'It's a boy…Jun. You were right! I have a son!'-Kazuya said, proudly holding Jin in his arms.

-'He's going to be just like you!'-she answered.

-'He looks like me! Look! He has my eyes!'

Kazuya bent down and put Jin in Jun's arms.

-'This child will be loved…by both of us!'-she said kissing Jin's little head.

-'One day…Jin Kazama will be known by many. People will remember the son of Kazuya Mishima!'

-'I'm sure you'll be proud of him!'

-'I know I will…and thank you Jun…for saving me from the dark! You and Jin saved me…'

End of Flashback

All those memories were confusing and uncertain, but for some reason, Jun could feel that they were true, authentic. Her eyes spotted Jin again.

-'Jin's my son…'-Jun repeated.-'He's my son…my baby…he can't die!'
