Panda nervously watched Xiaoyu sprint with her King of the Iron Fist Tournament winnings wondering what unknown chaos might befall the moment Xiaoyu tries to mess up with history. She also half-wished that Xiao would use her winnings to buy loads of ice-cream instead...
Meanwhile, the rumble of a motorcycle accompanies Hwoarang's low mutters as he speeds his way to nowhere after his rematch with his rival Jin Kazama.
"This sucks"
"So boring, damn Kazama"
"I'll get him"
"Left so soon just because he lost"
"Damn!", he almost hit a detour sign. Fortunately he turned right before the collision.
"Grrr...where am I heading anyway?" With this note, he saw a huge black and white bear sitting outside the gates of what seems to be the Mishima Labs.
"Panda, what's it doing there?", he muttered curiously.
He rode past the gates, made a U-turn and deccelerated to park just in front of the gates.
Panda took no notice of Hwoarang as he dismounted from his bike.
"Hey bear...", Hwoarang called out to Panda.
Panda looked at him, growled lowly, then looked away. She was in no mood of talking while she's worried about Xiaoyu.
"Hmmm... I was wondering why a huge bear like you is displaying itself outside these gates. If you're waiting for someone why don't you step inside", Hwoarang told her.
"Rar, rar", growled Panda which translates into 'How do you care?'.
"Hey you need not be rude. Damn, I was asking nicely", Hwoarang answered then asked "Where's your hyper, over-happy friend Xiaoyu? She inside?".
Panda nodded. Hwoarang strode inside the gates. "Funny, there's no sentry", he noted then he observed the place - there's a plain lawn and a neat bricked pathway leading to a dome-shaped structure. Panda followed inside then sat on the grass.
"Hmmm, its silent here. What is Xiaoyu doing there?", Hwoarang asked. Panda didn't answer but instead wondered why the red-haired punk is interested in such matter.
"Fine if you won't talk. Well of course you could only do bear-talk. . .Anyway, I'll just wait here too", Hwoarang said and he leaned on a wall near the gate.
They waited for almost an hour. Panda only sat and looked around every once in a while. Whilst Hwoarang was noting aloud that he'd seen Xiaoyu wearing a colorful furry bear costume with colorful ribbons holding her pigtails during one of her fights.
"She looked silly you know, but hell she fights well", Hwoarang laughed as he was telling this to the quiet Panda.
A moment later Xiaoyu emerged from the lab entrance looking crestfallen. She slowly walked towards Panda and patted her gently on the head and mumbled " You cannot change the past. History cannot be rewritten", then she heaved a sigh.
Hwoarang was eyeing Xiaoyu with polite interest then greeted her "Hey Xiaoyu!"
"Hi", replied Xiaoyu glumly. She had just noticed that Hwoarang was there but she wanted to go home now more than ever.
Panda nudged Xiaoyu's hand with her nose as though asking what was wrong. "Come on Panda, let's go home. I think Dr. B is right, we can only hope for minor changes...grrrr whatever it means", Xiaoyu sadly told Panda as she started walking out of the gates.
"What's with the sad face? You're usually happy", Hwoarang asked but Xiaoyu and Panda were already walking away.
"The hell, am I just a statue here? Wait!". Hwoarang followed them. "What were you doing there? What's wrong?", he asked as he managed to walk alongside Xiaoyu.
"Just mind your own business please." Xiaoyu was so dejected that she did not mind being rude.
"Alright then I'll leave you alone. I was thinking of treating you for an ice cream. But we both seem to be in a bad mood so i'll eat ice cream alone." Hwoarang thought himself silly for saying this but he couldn't think of anything else to get Xiaoyu to talk to him.
Xiaoyu, even in her gloom, could not resist an ice cream treat. Her face brightened up a little. She loves ice cream.
"Ice cream, yay! What were you saying? Oh I'm sorry for being rude, I'm just so sad." Panda nodded at Xiaoyu. She likes ice cream too.
"Not you bear," Hwoarang said as he noticed Panda. "Well I think you would have to ride with me on the motorcycle Xiaoyu...you can follow, panda, if you want." He'll throw his questions at Xiaoyu later.
"Oh, ok yay!", Xiaoyu replied happily. She had just found her surprise of Hwoarang treating her for an ice cream. Her spirits rose a little. Then the three headed towards the ice cream parlor, Panda bounding along to keep up with the motorcycle.
