Sindel- First off, thank you for reviewing every chapter. ::insert happy face, and friendly glomp here:: And if you want to know how Chun-Li got there in the first place (you and your details... just kidding... please don't kill me. ::cowering in fear:: ) I guess that she'll reminisce about it when/if she's back to not being a little kid. One last thought............ I forgot what I was going to say... (so much for thoughts -.-)
EliteNinja-Naomi- First of all, Saitoh told me to tell you that 'HE NEEDS HIS SAKE TO LIVE!' or something to that effect, and second of all, I think that Chun-Li causing Ken pain is possible... and damn funny. n.n
Maki82- I'm glad that you like this fic, although I also like the more angsty dramatic Vega things. Just so you know, when I finish this, I'll post the angst Vega/Chun-Li fic. Yay. But, if you're a big Cammy fan you shouldn't bother reading it...
Disclaimer- I don't own Street Fighter 2V, Martian Successor Nadesico, Gekigengar 3, or Invader Zim.
Ch4
Ken blinked a couple times after hearing Vega's recollection of what happened. "Well," he said, "that was very... wordy."
"It explained what you wanted to know, did it not?" Vega rose an eyebrow.
"I guess it did," Ken said, looking over at Chun-Li, who was now singing along to the ending theme of Gekigengar 3.
Chun-Li yawned and turned to look at Vega, "Can I spend the night here? Mr. Ryu's really nice, and so is Mr. Ken."
"Chun-Li I don't think that-"
Ken interrupted Vega, "Of course you can, Chun-Li."
Vega glared at Ken, "We wouldn't want to impose, blood brother."
"It's no problem at all," Ken said, glaring back.
While they were glaring at each other Ryu walked over to Chun-Li and sat down next to her before changing the channel to Invader Zim. They both ignored the two arguing people behind them, who seemed about ready to kill each other, and watched TV. Somewhere between the commercial break, and Ken implying that Vega would do something 'wrong' to Chun-Li, Ryu looked down at the girl.
"You know," he said, "you don't have to call me 'Mr.' It makes me feel old."
"Ok, Ryu," Chun-Li said, never looking away from the television. After the show was over, she looked over at Ryu, "Hey, Ryu?"
"Yeah?"
"I was wondering... what did Mr. Ken do to make Mr. Vega angry?"
"What do you mean?" Ryu asked.
"Well," Chun-Li looked back at the two, who were on the verge of yelling, then back to Ryu, "I haven't really been with Mr. Vega for long, but I can tell that he'd a really nice guy. But all I've seen Mr. Ken do is give him mean looks, and make him angry."
Ryu sighed, "They just don't like each other."
"Do you not like Mr. Vega too?"
"I can't really say that we're best friends, but I don't hate him," Ryu said. Attempting to change the subject, Ryu stood up before saying, "Hey, Chun-Li, do you want some ice cream?"
"Yeah!" Chun-Li smiled, "I love ice cream! My daddy and I used to eat it every Saturday, while watching cartoons..." Chun-Li trailed off and began to cry, "I really miss Daddy..."
Vega, who heard her crying, looked over., "Chun-Li, what's wrong?"
"She's probebly upset because you're being abusive and not letting her stay with her friends," Ken accused.
"Actually," Ryu said, "I mentioned something about ice cream and-"
The fighter was cut off by Chun-Li's wail, "I WANT MY DADDY!"
Vega walked over and picked the sobbing girl up, "Shh. Shh. It's ok, you'll see your daddy soon. So stop crying, ok?"
"Promise?" Chun-Li asked, calming down a bit.
Vega smiled, "Promise."
(((((((-)))))))
Bison glared at the man before him, "What do you mean you lost them?!"
The soldier gulped as he responded, "W-well, sire, t-there have been n-no reports of Vega's, or Chun-Li's, whereabouts. I-it's like they va-vanished."
"You had better make sure they're found," Bison's eyes narrowed, "or else..."
"Y-yes sir!" The soldier ran off to go do as he was told.
Bison looked out the window of the Japanese hotel he was in, "Vega, you had better hope that you're not found."
(((((((-)))))))
Vega woke up to find two things out of the ordinary. One, there was something poking his forehead, and two, he was on the floor. He opened his eyes to see Chun-Li, kneeling over him and poking his head. "What are you doing?" he asked groggily as he sat up.
Chun-Li smiled, "Mr. Ken said that this would be the best way to wake you up. He said that if you didn't get up by the time he got out of the shower, that me and him get to draw."
"Draw?" Vega rose an eyebrow as he sat up.
"Yeah," Chun-Li nodded and held up two permanent markers, "he said that we get to draw on you."
Vega stood up, "He did, did he?"
Chun-Li nodded, "Yeah. Do you want me to go wake up Ryu?"
Vega, "Yes. In fact, why don't you ask him to take you to get some breakfast? I need to have a little talk with Ken."
"Ok!" Chun-Li smiled again before running off towards the bed. Then she stopped, turned, ran back to Vega, and hugged his legs, "Oh yeah, good morning!"
Vega smiled down at her, "Good morning to you too, Chun-Li. You should go wake up Ryu now." Chun-Li ran off again, and Vega glared at the bathroom door.
It wasn't very long before Ken walked out of the bathroom, clean and still dripping slightly. He was wearing jeans and a light blue button-up shirt. He saw the look on Vega's face, and laughed a bit, "So, I guess you heard about the marker thing..."
"Yes I did, blood brother," Vega glared at Ken, a silent threat of what would have been done if Chun-Li, or Ken, really did touch his face with a marker. The two of them walked towards the corner of the suit that served as the kitchen, each one glaring at the other, who glared back for good measure.
They arrived to see Chun-Li and Ryu finishing their breakfast of Frosted Rice Puffs. Chun-Li smiled at Vega and Ken, "Can I go swimming now?"
"I don't know," Ken said, "I mean, you did just eat. If you go swimming too soon after that you'll get a cramp. Maybe later."
Ryu smiled at Ken, "You know, Ken, you still have to take Chun-Li shopping. And Vega said that he'd go too. I guess I'll stay here and practice the hadou-ken for a while."
Ken ate his breakfast, while Chun-Li decided to ask him any question that came to mind. Vega smirked at the look on Ken's face when Chun-Li decided to ask where babies come from. Ken stumbled with words before finally saying, "Look at the time, we need to go shopping."
"Can I come too?!" Chun-Li asked, still hyper from the cereal she ate earlier.
Ken smiled, "Of course you can."
"What about Mr. Vega? Is he coming too?! I hope so!" Chun-Li smiled brightly.
Vega couldn't help but smile back, "Of course I am. After all, Ken would probably do something stupid if I wasn't around."
"And what about Ryu?!"
"Sorry, kid," Ryu said, "but I'm going to stay here and train. The last time I went shopping, Ken made me carry everything."
(Sorry for the lateness. A lot has been going on lately like the computer getting fixed and a death in the family. Both things resulted in writer's block... ::is out of ideas for the time being:: but, if it's any constellation, the 'shopping chapter' is up next. n.n)
