a/n: Weeeee, a new chappie, guys! Time to continue the story. Read and review everyone. Enjoy, people! I really hope you like it as much as I like writing it. One thing though, this chapter isn't as long, but I couldn't just write something to make it longer, it needs to be interesting, or much more likely, the end wouldn't been better with more words.

Disclaimer: Tekken and Namco aren't mine...

Chapter 3:

New

"God, I'm sleepy today..." Ling Xiaoyu replied while bending backward. "You know...I don't understand what you're doing and all...but I really...-". Jin cut her off as he put a finger onto her lips, "Shhhh. Enjoy your food now.".

Xiaoyu sat forward again and put another slice of bread in her mouth. She easily slipped an eye onto Jin Kazama, but as he saw her staring, she turned her face at the other side. They sat eating lunch as they had been doing for about two years ago, soon to be three. The Chinese had often thought about inviting this Japanese guy on a date. But now, they were too much of friends, not anything els. And it was this that started making Xiaoyu crazy. She did not love him. But why did she dream about her yelling these three words after him every night? She really did need to talk with someone...

"JIN?" Xiaoyu shouted out at Jin where she was bumping into his over arm, "I'm talking, idiot!".

The alarm rung them to start their lesson again, but as Xiaoyu scrapped into Jin's arm again, he turned his attention to her again, "What?" he said in a brash and hard voice. Xiaoyu had to move one meter away not to get deaf, "Um...okay!" she started, "You ate my lunch...".

At this, Jin stopped sneering and looked down at the papir he was holding in his hands, "Eh...oops...!".

With standing up on her feets, the Chinese girl approached the entrance door to Mishima High School, but before getting inside, she stopped in the doorway and smirked kinda friendly at Jin, "Don't forget to drink up your lemonade, buddy!".

Something made Jin instantly give into a hard time of laughing, he couldn't stop. He just laughed like it was...the first time ever. Xiaoyu rolled her eyes and beamed up the door in the head of her, then letting it bump together again. Jin had to hold both his hands over his stomach not to overreact and fell onto the ground. All of a sudden, two Japanese students walked past and grinned at Jin. One of them clapped his shoulder before continuing walking. Jin could hear them say his name. Of course they knew him, they were his fans. The great Karate master in the age of 21. Jin had forgotten his own birthday. Was it in July...or in December? Ling Xiaoyu used to give him a present on his day, but in three years now, she hadn't given him any. They hadn't been speaking that much either, it wasn't that easy.

Jin was thinking as he heard his friend's chilish accent inturming his brain to wake him up.

"What the..?".

"JIN? Have you been sitting here in a whole hour?" she barked at his presence where he was sitting, leaning back with one foot over the other, "Eh...I guess so!".

"I can't believe it... You promised to join class. Visiting your friends.".

"Xiao...I don't got any friends here...exept you...".

Xiaoyu sat down next to him, not turning her face towards him but glaring up at the statue of Heihachi Mishima, "It's just that...I dunno. You seem different...".

"Yes." was all Jin could say before raising up and cleaning off the dirt on his school costume, "And it still do fit.".

"God damn it, Jin!". After cursing wildly, she bumped into his shoulder, continuing taking a hold round his arm, "What the hell. Let's get outta!". The she started walking along the confused Japanese, "Okay...Xiao, what are you doing?".

"We're skipping school.".

"Why?" he asked approaching a corner, then lifting around it beside Xiaoyu.

"I wanna change too, so let's visit Panda at the Panda Zoo.".

Where the two of them was walking along the pavement on a sunny day, Jin Kazama got a scary look over his face, "Panda Zoo..." he whispered to himself, but Xiaoyu heard it and leaned her head onto his arm, "Yup. Panda have missed you, and she would be pleased to play with you. It'll be fun...".

"I doubt it...".

Jin tried to think straight as he limped away Xiaoyu's arm, then stopping and looking around, "I'm hungry!".

Xiaoyu raised a brow at that, "You are? You just ate my God damn lunch!". Jin's face fell as he started giggling, "Eh...hih. I mean, you're hungry...!".

"Wait a minute..." Xiaoyu replied and put both her arms in a cross, then moving away her smile, "So tell me, Jin...!".

"I don't know what you're talking about. I need to pee." he finished and turned his back and started walking, but five meters up the road, Xiaoyu grabbed his arm again and beamed him into a car that stood at the side, the driver had to stop instantly.

"HEY!" she shouted and gripped his arms into the car window, "Listen, punky! I don't know what you're planning or something. But, I know that something is not like it should be.".

Now, the driver of the car opened the door and stood out, a tall Japanese man with an office costume, "Excuse me, children! Go play another place, will ya! I got a job to do, you know.".

After yelling mad at the two in both their school costume, Jin all of a sudden took Xiaoyu's hand and started walking with her back to the pavement. They walked quite beside each other. Xiaoyu looked down at their hands, Jin was holding it so hard, he was swetting. And as she started studying his looks, she smiled to herself. They were both very alike, very strange. Jin was kinda walking a step in the front of her, he was in a hurry. He looked calm under all the stress. His hair was in its perfect place, a messy spike at the front and back. His mouth half closed. Then Xiaoyu's eyes went over his figure. The costume of his, still in a great touch. Still thin, but lots of muscles. His trained body almost showed under the shirt and pants. Xiaoyu had to give a big smile this time, but she didn't get it why he was holding her hand like they were a couple.

"Jin?" she asked with a friendly tonfall, but a childish accent under her breath.

Jin gave her half his face and nodded her to continue.

"I just...wondering... Um... Why are you holding my hand again...?".

As Xiaoyu had said the last word in her sentence, Jin stopped getting the Chinese girl crasing into her. Jin let her hand go but didn't look her in the eye, "I dunno.".

"You know that you're strange, right?" Xiaoyu asked letting it to be a joke, something the Japanese didn't get. He turned and met both her eyes as he came closer, "Yes I am.".

With a warm accent, he came closer again, getting her to meet the wall in the back, then crasing her in the wall too, but she hit up her eyes and stared at him, studying his face. He put up on hand as the otherone got a hold over her hips. He continued moving his fingers over her chin and meeting her lips, then he said without a smile, "Wanna see how strange I can get?".

Xiaoyu's heart spin so fast that she almost shrunk into the ground. It was so strong that she could feel it coming into her stomach as Jin's body came closer to her...and she awoke.

"Oh my sweetest!" came it as Xiaoyu spun up from her bed and bumped her head into the lamp on the wall. She cursed and looked around the room. It was her usual bedroom. Dark and the smell of icecream, still the same vanilla ice sent. She burst down from her bed and found her school costume laying on her sofa chair in the middle of the room, two pair of shoes at the side.

"Great...just great! A freaking dream..." she said while telling herself to stop talking to herself.

She couldn't think of it as a dream. It felt so real. Jin treated her like his girlfriend. Jin was about to kiss her as she woke up from her dream.

Xiaoyu turned the light on as she moved into her clothing. Then she tumbled into the bathroom. There she fixed her look. Even her hair looked as funny as her mascara... "Make-up? I don't wear make-up?". She put her finger on the mirror, then cleaning off the spots, "Hell." she cursed again and started scrapping off her mascara rests too.

After she had shouted at herself and fixed her look for school, she sat down beside her kitchen table, then laying her head on it.

"I'll kill that, brat.".

Sixteen minutes later, Ling Xiaoyu found her way along the pavement, then finding her High School. As she passed Heihachi's staue, she walked backward and spit at the rock, "Don't stare at me!".

Her lesson had already started as she came in the doorway and saw all of the students staring at her with a funny look, "Bite me!" she said at them, then the teacher smiled and pointed at a guy sitting in the back all alone, "I guess you've seen him before, Ling?".

Xiaoyu looked over to where the teacher was pointing to. Perfect timing, it was Jin Kazama. He was actually in class. And yes, he was strange, indeed.

What could she do than to sit next to him? He would have gotten her to move anyway. She knew him too good she realized.

She put her bag onto the floor as she found her books. Jin looked at her and laughed a bit, "Good morning to you too!".

Xiaoyu didn't reply other than giving him half a smile, then opening her books and listening to the teacher. What the hell was she doing?

Through the whole lesson with Japanese Kanji, Ling Xiaoyu tried to avoid Jin Kazama with running into her gang, some girls standing chatting in a corner. One of her best friends, Harumi, saw her coming, she cared less than giving her a thoung.

"Well, well! Isn't it Xiao with her boy-problem!" she said in a bitchy accent while clapping hands with one of the other girls.

Xiaoyu got a confuse look upon her face as she spoke, "Boy...what?".

The gang started laughing, "Xiao! You're eating lunch with Jin Kazama, but you can't kiss him. I thought he loved you?".

Everything went in a fuss when a hand got over her shoulder, she shocke around and jumped back, "What do you want?" she asked at the Japenese guy giving her a smile, but as he heard her bitchy accent towards him, his smile went away, "I just...wanted to meet your friends...I remember Harumi!" he said and took a handshake with Harumi, she raised a brow along the others, "Haven't you two kissed yet?".

Jin stopped moving, almost puking at the spot, "Excuse me?".

Harumi sat her hands on her hips and gave him a sneer, "Well, prince! You and that bitch need to get it overwith!" she finished and started walking away with the rest of her gang. Jin saw them disappearing before turning to Xiaoyu with two big eyes, "I have no idea what's going on with them! They used to be nice...".

The Japanese guy in his school costume, checked over his wearing before walking up on Xiaoyu. He smiled and took one hand up to move away her hair covering her face, he didn't say anything as his sight slipped away and he walked away. Xiaoyu stood shaking all alone in the corridor when she realized that Jin had left the building.

Xiaoyu thought of one word, run, and she started sprinting towards the outer door. But as she beamed up the door, an empty school yard watched over her eyes.

To be continued...

a/n: The very end of chapter three. I hope you've enjoyed. To be honest, I really liked this chapter myself... How can it be, Xiaoyu's dream! Is it real, or not real. And why is Jin acting strange? Or, too strange that is...? Read the next chapter that is coming, and you'll maybe get to know some of the questions. Please review and let me know what you think.

Love...
