A/N: Hi peoples! Ok, I've been a bit lazy and procrastinated by reading stories n writing mine and I think I'll be in a heap of trouble if I don't start soon :S I've got a science research thingee and my English assignment, plus my arrangement for music ARGH! So what this basically means is that I'm gonna b all out my homework for the next week so I mite not be updating mine in a while…or reviewing but I mite b far too tempted to review so yeah, do count on me havin a lil "study break" and reviewing :D Ok, lets see if I got some reviews:
Jelly: Yeah, bout that….glad you do accept the fact that this is based on (ahem) "ONE of my friends" but I don't think I shud coz later in the story, there will b character bashing and I do like those characters and it will disappoint a few readers so maybe I wont.
Tekkengeek01: I have just figured out how J. Mishima will enter the story. Glad u like how I portray Xiao but I dnt really care how many times you say it, as long as I'm doing a good job on her character…..now I jus gotta work on everyone else :P A bit of Xiaoyin will come soon don't worry, I jus think their kinda romance is suddle.
Henred5: Thanks so much! Ur storys getting really interesting so please update!
Xjmaster: I'm glad u understand. Hope you get better and update ur other stories!
XxTekkenbabexx: Like I said, I mite not be writing the Hwoarang/Asuka fic but maybe I cud tweak it a lil so that it doesn't character bash. I dunno, we'll hav to c.
Ok, I don't own the tekken series and I god dang never will! Now to the story
Chapter 18: Awakening
Asuka was lying unconscious on her bed. Hwoarang, Steve, Xiaoyu, Julia, Christie and Miharu were standing around it, waiting for her to wake up.
"So how did she get here when she was unconscious?" Hwoarang asked Julia and Xiaoyu.
"We told you already, Jin transformed into his angel form and flew her here." Xiaoyu said for the billionth time. Hwoarang still looked sceptical.
"Didn't you see him transform right before your eyes into a devil?" Julia asked him.
"Yeah but he doesn't have an angel form!" Hwoarang stated.
"Look, you weren't there so you wouldn't know right?" Christie said simply. Asuka started to stir, groaning a little.
"Guys, she's waking up, you know the plan right?" Steve said quickly. Everybody nodded.
"This is going to be hilarious!" Miharu squealed. Asuka's eyes slowly opened and she was greeted by everyone in the group standing over her, staring at her with wide eyes and a smile so wide that it was creepy (A/N: Yup, my strange sense of humour is kicking in.).
"AHHH!" Asuka shrieked, everybody bursting into the laughter at the same time.
"What the hell was that?" Asuka asked.
"Just something random we wanted to try." Steve said casually.
"Anyway, was it true that Kazama transformed into his…angel self…and flew you here?" Hwoarang asked Asuka.
"I don't really remember anything…all I remember was fighting Jin and then when he beat me, I screamed 'It isn't over yet' and that's pretty much it." Asuka said, straining her memory to find out anything else.
"You transformed into your devil self, Asuka." Xiaoyu stated.
"What? Again?" Asuka exclaimed.
"Yeah, and you sounded pretty evil too." Julia said.
"Wait, why is it that we always miss it if you transform?" Steve asked, gesturing to Hwoarang when he said 'we'.
"Steve, it isn't exactly a huge spectacle, she almost killed us." Xiaoyu said, reminding Steve how dangerous it was.
"Well the bottom line is that I didn't beat him. I'm out of the tournament." Asuka said, ashamed at her defeat by her brother again.
"Cheer up Asuka, you can hang out with me and Jules at my apartment, plus Panda!" Xiaoyu exclaimed.
"Guess that would be pretty awesome." Asuka said, a small smile forming on her face.
"Wow, I would've never thought that I would last longer than Xiao!" Miharu said, emphasising longer.
"I would've never thought you would make it past the first round." Hwoarang joked, receiving a slap upside the head by Miharu.
Two days later, Asuka, Julia, Xiaoyu and Panda were all sleeping on the apartment floor in Xiaoyu's apartment. Once again, the crazy frog ring tone (A/N: To think Axel F is still number one here in NZ) disrupted the silence. Xiaoyu, being on the left side of the group, shot an arm out and searched the floor. When her hands fell upon some familiar bulk, she instinctively flipped it open and pressed it against her ear.
"Hello." Xiaoyu mumbled. Her cellphone, however, continued to ring. She opened her eyes a little to find the TV remote pressed against her ear. She tossed the TV remote aside and picked up her orange cellphone, which happened to sit next to the TV remote. She flipped it open and pressed it against her ear.
"Hello." Xiaoyu mumbled.
"Rise and shine Xiao, its Miharu here." Miharu said at the other end cheerfully.
"What time is it?" Xiaoyu asked.
"Um…it's about quarter to 8. Anywho, my match is at the virtual simulator at 2. I'm versing Nina Williams." Miharu said.
"Ok, go on." Xiaoyu said, sitting up from the ground, searching for a paper and pen to write this on. She found an old electricity bill and snatched it form the floor. She coincidentally, found a pen lying next to her. Xiaoyu began scribbling down the details for the fights.
"Hwoarang's against Asuka's big bro at the virtual simulator after me." Miharu continued. Xiaoyu took the phone away from her ear and turned towards Asuka on the ground, who was covering her head with a pillow.
"Asuka, Hwoarang's versing your big bro." Xiaoyu called out. All she heard was a muffled voice from Asuka but Xiaoyu decided to continue with the conversation.
"Continue."
"Steve's versing Kazuya!" Miharu exclaimed.
"I'm gonna beat the crap outta him for ya Xiao!" Steve yelled in the background, making Xiaoyu giggle.
"And Christie's versing someone named Lili…not too sure who she is…anyway, she's versing her at about 8:30 in the wilderness." Miharu said.
"I'm sure Christie will be able to beat her. Well, we'll see you guys at your fights!" Xiaoyu said and she snapped her phone shut. Julia rose to a sitting position, rubbing her eyes. Asuka continued to lie on the ground with the pillow over her head.
"Listen up guys," Xiaoyu began in a loud voice.
"MMMRHHPPPPPH" Asuka said but the pillow muffled her words.
"Miharu's against Nina and its at the virtual simulator. Hwoarang's versing Jin after Miharu at the same place and Christie's versing Lili at 8:30 at the wilderness area." Xiaoyu informed the other two.
"Who's Lili?" Asuka asked, removing the pillow from the head and sitting up.
"I heard she was some rich girl." Julia said.
"Well, I'm sure Christie will be able to beat her." Xiaoyu said, filled with confidence for Christie and the others. At that moment, Panda crawled sleepily out of Xiaoyu's room and wore an expression that said, "What was all the noise about?"
"Morning Panda!" Xiaoyu greeted cheerfully. She stood up and made her way to her furry companion. Xiaoyu was greeted by a series of grunts form Panda.
"Well, what's for breakfast?" Julia asked.
"Hmmm…" Xiaoyu thought, rubbing a fake goatee as she looked up in thought.
"Well, I've got…instant noodles, instant pizza, instant pie…and I think that's bout it." Xiaoyu said, looking back at Julia and Asuka.
"Gee, such a variety to choose from." Asuka said sarcastically.
"Or we could eat out, your choice." Xiaoyu added.
"Eating out does sound tempting…." Julia said.
"We could conserve our money and…" Asuka took a deep breath.
"Eat the stuff at Xiao's house."
"Oh come on, there's no way I can screw up instant food and besides, you guys haven't even tasted my cooking!" Xiaoyu protested.
"But Jin did and he told me all about it." Asuka said, adding a giggle afterwards.
"I'm surprised he even remembers." Xiaoyu said, blushing a little bit.
"Ok, well is it pizza, noodles or pies?" Xiaoyu continued.
"I go with pizza." Julia said. Asuka shrugged.
"Pizza sounds good."
"Ok, pizza it is then!" Xiaoyu said and pulled out a pizza from the freezer.
A/N: Ok, what a pointless chapter that was and a really bad way to leave it until my homework is finished. Sorry bout this chapter everyone! The bit where everyone was at Xiao's house sounded a lil too much like that scene from my last story :P guess I ran outta ideas. This chapter wasn't so good but review and tell me what you think! REVIEW!
