Chapter 19:
Xiaoyu, Asuka and Julia were standing in the technician's box that was situated pretty high up building, overlooking the area at which Miharu and Nina will be fighting."I hope Miharu does ok. She is fighting Nina after all." Julia said, watching the bored Miharu stand in the gridded room, waiting for her opponent to show up.
"Yeah, she's an assassin isn't she? Do you think she might go to the extent of killing Miharu by gunshot like what Bryan almost did to me?" Xiaoyu asked, fear stirred within her as a flashback of the gun pointed at her face came to mind.
"I'm sure she'll do fine." Asuka said. At that moment, the tournament official caught sight of the group of three and made his way towards them. He took out an envelope and shoved it at Asuka.
"The CEO of the Mishima Zaibatsu asked me to deliver this to you Miss Kazama." He bowed quickly and hurried back to the viewing glass. Asuka stared at the envelope.
"I wonder what the CEO of the Mishima Zaibatsu has got to say to me." Asuka thought aloud.
"Well, since you are a Kazama, I suppose you're in all this family stuff." Julia said.
"Well, open it already!" Xiaoyu said impatiently. Asuka tore open the envelope and emptied the contents. A folded piece of paper floated onto her empty palm. She unfolded the piece of paper to reveal neat handwriting. The letter read:
Dear Miss Kazama,
I have heard that you have been eliminated from the tournament and I have personally re-registered you back. This time, try to make it to the end so I can meet you personally.
Yours sincerely,
J. Mishima
All three of them stared wide-eyed at the letter.
"I don't think anything like this has happened in any tournament." Julia said, breaking the silence.
"You're so lucky Asuka, you're back in the tournament!" Xiaoyu said.
"But what does it mean? Why did the CEO of the Mishima Zaibatsu get me back in?" Asuka asked no one in particular.
"I guess the CEO wants to meet you in person, after all, you might be related to him…." Julia said.
"…or her." She added afterwards.
"Hey, I've never really thought about that." Asuka said.
Miharu stood in the gridded room, shifting weight from foot to foot as she waited for Nina. She wore a tracksuit similar to Xiaoyu's except hers was baby blue and white. A baby blue headband sat on the top of her head of neat auburn hair. Miharu was becoming increasingly impatient when Nina walked into the room in her yellow tracksuit, her heels clicking when they hit the ground. Miharu was thinking about commenting on her lateness but she decided that she wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of a cold-blooded assassin. The two just stared each down, blank expressions on their face and it was driving Miharu nuts. The room started glowing brightly, making the contenders cover their eyes. When the light had subsided, Nina and Miharu opened their eyes to find the sky blood red with a big round moon that was glowing eerily; remnants of a Buddha statue lay on the outskirts of the stage and a wire fence lined it. Random flames ignited here and there.
"Nina Williams versus Miharu Hirano." The tournament official said through a microphone in the technician's box.
"Let's do this!" Miharu said enthusiastically, unable to hold this back. She clapped her hands together and slid into her fighting stance.
"Prepare to die." Nina said dangerously, slicing a palm where her neck was and then got into her fighting stance (A/N: Ok, its been a while since I've versed Nina so I've kinda forgotten what she said….I cant b botherd chekin, I mean, start up Tekken 5 just to c wot Nina says before a fight? Bsides, my brother is playing Gran Turismo 4 shivers so….boring…..no offense to any Gran Turismo fans who also happen to b Tekken fans…ok I'll shut up now). Miharu gulped at Nina's comment but decided not to worry about it.
"Ready? FIGHT!" Nina ran at Miharu and executed four consecutive slaps. The first two hit Miharu but she ducked the other two, preparing to do a rising move when Nina was finished. Nina ended her combo with a lunge forward and throwing her arms in front of her. Miharu wasn't expecting this and she got thrown back, landing harshly on the dirt ground. Miharu recovered quickly and slid into her phoenix stance. When Nina was close enough, Miharu planted her hand on the ground and kicked upwards three times. Nina rocketed into the air. Miharu only had a little bit of time to follow up the move so she did a couple of slaps and her (as well as Xiaoyu's) signature palm thrust. Nina was flung back and she hit the wire fence, flames igniting on impact. When Nina was lying face flat on the ground, Miharu was about to jump on her but Nina rolled back quickly. Nina then grabbed hold of Miharu and shot a palm up. It collided with Miharu's chin. Miharu's head got thrown back from the impact. Nina followed this up by kneeing her in the stomach and stretching her arm back. Miharu yelped in pain, struggling against Nina's grasp. Nina then fell to the ground, holding onto Miharu's neck and stretched it. Miharu felt a sharp jolt of pain in her neck and she couldn't help but let out a little scream. Miharu was about to get up but Nina stood on her bad, digging the hard heel into her back and this was taking every bit of Miharu to stop herself from letting out an ear-drum shattering shriek. Miharu attempted to stand up but the pain was far too much for her so she collapsed.
"Nina Williams is the victor!" The tournament official said through the megaphone. Nina walked up to Miharu's body.
"Finished already? Puh-lease." Nina said, shrugging casually. With that, Nina left the arena. Xiaoyu, Asuka and Julia headed down to the arena to Miharu. The scenery changed back to the grid squares.
"That was pretty rough. You held up pretty well." Xiaoyu said, offering a hand to her friend. Miharu smiled and took it.
"Nah, I guess I just need to work on my technique a little." Miharu said. As soon as she stood upright, she almost collapsed but she grabbed onto Julia's shoulder.
"Nina is a trained assassin. She's got to be good at hand-to-hand combat. You did hold up pretty well." Julia complimented.
"Thanks guys." Miharu said, a grateful smile forming on her face.
While the group was talking, Hwoarang entered the gridded room.
"Hey guys, woah…judging by Miharu's look, I say that the match didn't end too well." Hwoarang said.
"Guess what you guys? The CEO of the Mishima Zaibatsu got me back into the tournament!" Asuka said excitedly.
"What! Are you best buds with the CEO or something?" Hwoarang asked.
"I don't know, I could be related to the CEO…"Asuka said.
"Ok, Hwoarang's match should be starting soon so we should get out of here. Good luck for your match!" Julia said and indicated for the group to go to the viewing box.
"I don't need luck!" Hwoarang shouted after the group arrogantly.
A/N: Ok, this time in my story, it would be the….dream of Jun….but this story is nowhere near its end so this is definitely going to be longer than my other story. I randomly thought of her getting back into the tournament in the middle of writing this chapter. My writers block is going away! But skools back 2moro :S I kno I didn't write much during these holidays but I've jus bn going hard on my hmwk. Well, theres nothing to hold me back once this term is over, SKOOL YEAR FINISHES! So I'll probably b going hard like wen I first got into REVIEW!
