Chapter 3 Mishima Estate
"Zuki. We're here."
Asuka opened her eyes groggily against the daylight. They were landing.
Asuka looked out the window. Her jaw dropped. Tokyo looked huge - and crowded. There wasn't a tree in sight.
This was definetly not Yakushima.
An hour had gone by, and finally they were out of the airport. There were so many people walking to and fro, going about their daily buisness. There were skyscrapers everywhere as tall as the sky. Cars and buses honked at each other, and the air smelled of pollution, which was pretty different then what Jin and Asuka were used to. Welcome to Tokyo.
Asuka began, "So...what do we do now?"
Jin swallowed. "We...we just get a taxi...then we go to Grandfather's place...where ever he is..."
Asuka said, "Well, we have to know where he lives first. We can go to a tollbooth and look for a phonebook in there, and we look up his name, and his address will surely be in there."
Asuka looked up at Jin. "Well, c'mon Oni-chan!"
Jin was stunned. How does she know these things? Man, what would I be without her? He thought silently.
So they walked up and down the busy streets of Tokyo. There has to be a tollbooth somewhere...
Asuka pointed to one. "Over there!"
So they walked over to the tollbooth eagerly. They squeezed inside and searched for the phonebook. "Up there!" Asuka said excitedly pointing to a shelf.
Jin grabbed it and paged through it eagerly. "J...K...L..." he muttered. "Aha! M's!"
Jin read carefully down the long list. "Mishima...Mishima...where are you...?"
Jin stopped. "Here we go! Mishima! 321...Mishima Lane?"
Asuka shrugged. "He's a multimillionaire," she pointed out, "he probably wanted his own street named after him."
Jin shrugged. "I guess."
They then proceeded into the task of hailing down a taxi.
It's not as easy as they thought it would be - after several failed attempts, they finally caught one.
"Taxi! Hey TAXI!"
FWEET-FWEET!
Asuka had placed two fingers in her mouth and blew hard.
"Why didn't I think of that?" Jin wondered out loud as they stepped inside the taxi.
"Where to?" the driver asked.
"321 Mishima Lane...please..."
The driver looked puzzled. "Mishima Estate?" he asked, "What buisness do you kids have there?"
"We're his-OW!" Asuka said, but Jin elbowed her. "That's our buisness," he said.
The driver shrugged. "If you say so."
They drove along smoothly. Half an hour later, they were out of the city, and they soon started seeing some really nice houses. Asuka felt relieved to see some grass and trees...
They finally stopped in front of a huge mansion.
"Whoa..." Jin began.
"Kami...this place..."
Jin said incredously, "This is where our grandfather lives?"
The driver turned around. "Grandfather?"
Jin asked suspiciously, "Is there a problem?"
The driver shook his head. "Not at all."
After they paid the driver, he was all too eager to drive off.
Asuka shook her head. "Sheesh...some people..."
Jin pointed out, "Well, just like you said: grandfather is a celebrity. Once the press finds out that he's got grandkids..."
Asuka shrugged. "Whatever."
They walked up to the massive oak doors.
Jin smiled sheepishly at Asuka. "Well...ladies first..."
Asuka scowled at Jin. "Oh please, Oni-chan. That is so last century. Besides, your the oldest."
Jin gulped. "OK." Slowly, he rang the doorbell.
A moment later, a man appeared at the door. "Welcome to the Mishima Estate," he said, almost automaticly. When he looked down, he was surprise to see two children at the doorsteps. "W-What buisness do you have here?"
Jin bowed hastily. "My name is Jin Kazama," he said. "This is my sister, Asuka. We're..."
Asuka finished for him. "We're Heihahci Mishima's grandchildren."
The butler looked stunned. "Wha...oh! Of course! Well...Mr. Mishima has never mentioned grandchildren before...how are you related to him, may I ask?"
Jin found his voice. "Our father is Kazuya Mishima. He is Heihachi Mishima's son."
The butler said, "Of course...right this way..."
He led them inside. The mansion was huge. And it was built in Western style. There were many windows, doors, and teardrop chandeliers. It was really well-kept. (A/N: I like to picture Heihachi's place as the same mansion in Tomb Raider, you know?)
After they went through a maze of hallways they finally stopped at two tall oak doors.
The butler cleared his throat. "This is his office. He...he doesn't allwo any disturbance when it's closed..."
Asuka asked lamely, "Can you make and exception...?"
"Yes...yes of course. After all, you are...family."
Hesitantly, he knocked on the door.
"Enter!" A voice said rather harshly.
They did. Inside were rows and rows of brown, leather bounded books, and brown leather armchairs. In the middle of the room in front of two huge window doors leading to the balcony sat a mahogany desk. Behind the desk was a black leather chair, which, at the moment, was facing the balcony. As the chair swiveled towards them, the voice said, "I thought I told you, no disturbance when the doors are - oh." He saw the two children. "Who are these kids?"
The butler cleared his throat. "Well, er...you see..."
Jin spoke up. "Mr. Heihachi Mishima?"
"Yes...?"
"My name is Jin Kazama. This is my sister, Asuka." He then took out the photograph of their parents from his pocket - it had never left his pocket since Jun gave it to him. "Is this your son?" he asked pointing to Kazuya's picture.
Heihachi stared at it incredously. "Where did you get that?" he asked.
Asuka found her voice. "This is our mother, Jun Kazama," she pointed to jun on the picture. "And Kazuya Mishima is our father. We're your grandchildren."
"So."
They were now in the living room, drinking green tea. They have just finished telling Heihachi about their parents, and what happened to their mother. It had been painfull recalling the night their mother died, but thankfully, Jin finished for Asuka when she could no longer speak.
Heihachi cleared his throat. "So...your mother is...dead..."
They nodded their heads.
"And...you haven't heard from your father since?"
They shook their heads.
"And...you say "Ogre" killed your mother?"
They nodded sadly.
"But...why?"
"We don't know," Asuka said sadly, "he just came to the forest, burnt our home, and the next moring...she was gone..."
Heihachi sighed, and put down his cup. "You two have endured such a tragic event. I feel I should take the blame. I have not been there for you andyour mother, the past 15 years...I apologize. And to make it up to you, Igive you family...and home. Koabara!"
Koabara, the butler, rushed inside. "Yes Sir?"
"Show the children to their rooms...you know...the biggest ones..."
"Yes Sir."
As they stood up to leave, Heihachi said, "Oh, and before I forget."
He turned to Jin. "You say that your mother taught you martial arts?"
Jin nodded.
"Are you any good?"
Jin simply said, "Apparently not, I guess."
Heihachi looked thoughtfully. "PerhapsI can teachyou the MishimaFighting Style Karate," he said, "however, the Mishima-ryu is a very difficult style. Lessons with me...will be very difficult indeed. Are you willing to learn the Mishima-ryu?"
Jin nodded eagerly. "Yes of course! Anything...to avenge my mother..."
Heihachi nodded. "Very well...tommorow morning after breakfast."
As they turned to leave, Asuka stopped. "I'll learn too."
Heihachireplied seriously, "This is no easy task, child.It will be much difficult than what you can do. Are you sure?"
Asuka nodded solmenly. "If Oni-chan can, I can too. Besides, just because I'm12 and a girl, doesn't mean I'm a weakling."
Heihachi finally nodded. "Fine. Tommorow morning.After breakfast. Be there."
That night, they were shown into their gigantic rooms, Asuka took a quick bath and went out into her balcony. As she explored her magnificent room, Asuka couldn't help thinking how lucky they were to be living in a mansion. Was that why their mother instructed them to go to Heihachi? Because they would have a better life here in Tokyo?
Asuka looked up from her balcony at the night sky. Where are the stars she thought. In Yakushima, the sky was covered in glitering stars. But here in the city, there was light pollution, so there were no stars to be seen.
Asuka sighed. She had been hoping to see at least one star that night...maybe even wish on it...although she gave up on wishing on stars, she couldn't help but hope that her one wish would come true...
Asuka gave up, and went back inside. She climbed into the covers of her king-sized bed, and after saying a short prayer, she fell asleep.
Meanwhile...
Once Heihachi made sure the children were in their rooms, he made a phone call to his scientific advisor, Abel.
"So...your a grandfather?"
"Seems so."
"I don't belive it...so Kazuya fell for that one Kazama woman?"
"And had a second round."
"What...you have two grandkids?"
"Yes. And that's not all."
"What?"
"Ogre attacked their mother."
"My God...what do you think this means?"
"Abel, don't you see a connection between their mother's death and the missing fighters here? Their mother was a martial artist."
"Are you saying...that Ogre is the cause of all these missing fighters?"
"Exactly."
"But how? And why?"
"Well, they don't call him the God of Fighting for nothing. Legend has it that he, "roams the earth, searching for the souls of powerful fighters."
"Yes, but...that's a myth."
"Abel, Ogre is the myth, but the children saw him attack their mother."
"So I guess you do have something here..."
"Indeed."
"What are you going to do?"
"...tommorow morning, the children will learn the Mishima -ryu. In about three, four years time, they shall master it. Therefore...they will attract Ogre..."
"Yes...yes, they will! But how can you be so sure that Ogre will come out of hiding?"
Heihachi paused. Then an evil smile crept up on his lips. "15 years since the 2nd Iron Fists Tournament, Abel. Maybe Ogre can wait 'till, say...four years 'till the third..."
Oooh, that ol' fart! Hehehe. What's Heihachi gonna do? Will Ogre come? Will Asuka and Jin master the Mishima Fighting Style Karate? Find out in the next chappie!
Oh, and also, the next chapter will be 4 years later, just so I don't bore you with any details that don't matter. Instead, more interesting things will come when the Kazama-Mishimas are out on a holiday during spring break...
Say...any Hwoarang fans out there?
