Master Raven's Log

Location, near Turkla, Sweden, Date, March, 24th

Master Raven (In her log.): "I've successfully infiltrated the Rebel force base under Lars's command. He might be startled when he sees me, but I would rather avoid a fight. My subordinate Raven informed me that he is a close aide for his previous assignment. I'm sure if he recognizes my tattoo he will be cordial. I will come back later with further details. Master Raven out."

Master Raven was inches away from opening the office door inside Lars's room. At first the door was locked, but being an expert locksmith, she simply took a defunct credit card and forcibly slid the lock off as the knob turned. Her eyes gaze towards Lars's chair. She could feel his ki, so she found him alright. However, it seemed he never realized someone broke into his office. His mind was in a dreamy state thinking about his deceased mother as he stared at the picture of her. It wasn't until Lars placed the picture back on his dresser and turned the chair at the direction of the mysterious woman that surprised him.

Lars: "What the?"

Master Raven: "Lars Alexandersson. We meet face to face at last."

Lars: "Are you here to silence me?!"

Master Raven: "Relax!" (Shows her tattoo.) "Recognize this?"

Lars (Looks at it.): "That's Raven's tattoo! Who are you? His sister?"

Master Raven: "No. I am called Master Raven, the head of our intelligence squad."

Lars: "Master Raven? He never mentioned anything about having teammates."

Master Raven: "I'm the only one who can allow whether or not my guys identifies anyone about our team. Anyway I'm here to learn more about Heihachi's wife. Do you know where she might be?'

Lars: "I see. I really don't know much about her myself other than the fact that she was Kazuya's mother. My team is looking for here as we speak. She might be heading to meet Kazuya either in China or Japan. It's sketchy."

Master Raven: "My organization has picked up some abnormal powers deep within Kazumi after her brief appearance in public last month. It may not even be the devil gene that brought her back into the physical world."

Lars: "What do you mean?"

Master Raven: "I'm suggesting it's a power outside of the devil gene. Perhaps more powerful than the devil gene itself."

Lars: "What? There's no way!"

Master Raven: "It's only a theory. Something greater is amidst coming up in this tournament. Consider this as an update about that notion."

Lars (Pondering.): "A greater power. I really thought going to Egypt would end this chaos, but it only extended it."

Master Raven: "Another reason why I am here is to ask you about this." (Gives Lars a torn article.) "Did you hear about this incident that occurred last year? Here's a newspaper article about it from England."

Lars (Reads it.): "Oh yeah! I've heard about this? A vampire sighting?"

Master Raven: "Yes. My organization doesn't know how, but apparently this thing was wreaking havoc across the Mediterranean cities over a 1000 years ago. Then one day this creature vanished. Legends says she appeared as a young girl. I'm sure it's risky, but I'm willing to find its current burial remains in Monaco and see for myself whether the legend is real."

Lars: "Compared to the stuff I've seen this past year, I won't say I'm surprised vampires exist. What if you can't beat that thing? Do you need backup? Tools?"

Master Raven: "A locator would be good to have. I just know that this vampire is buried somewhere in Monaco."

Lars (Gets up.): "Okay. I think I have one by this drawer here."

Eventually Lars finds the locator he mentioned. It was a neat gizmo Lee Chaolan gave him a while back for locating people, especially if they possessed high ki levels. He handed it over to Master Raven and told her about what it could do.

Lars: "Careful with that thing. It's sensitive, because I have dropped it a few times. Sometimes the screen will randomly go in and out, but it still accurate."

Master Raven: "You don't have another one like it?"

Lars: "No because that was given to me by Lee my brother."

Master Raven: "Oh. Then I will put it to good use then. Thank you."

Lars: "No problem. Say is Raven going back to the tournament?"

Master Raven: "No. I'm going to enter."

Lars: "So your visit wasn't just coincidence. Is Raven okay?"

Master Raven: "He's fine, you know he's married now right?"

Lars: "Oh so he did tie the knot with that fox ninja! I can't believe it!"

Master Raven: "That's why I didn't want him to overwork himself. I'm going to take over the investigation of these tournaments. Nothing personal, but all of the Mishimas need to be arrested."

Lars: "I understand. They have caused enough trouble for all of us (humanity). I hope we don't have to fight in this tournament, but I won't let anyone get in my way of fighting them. Not even you."

Master Raven (smile.): "Now that's a good soldier. If only Raven shared your enthusiasm for fighting."

Lars (Blushes.): "Well…thanks for the complement. Oh and here's a dossier about Kazumi Mishima. It's the only thing I have about her should you examine it later."

Master Raven (Takes it from Lars.): "I appreciated your time Lars. Until we meet again."

Lars: "Till next time."

30 minutes later in Master Raven's Hovercraft

Master Raven Log: "I've just finished reading Kazumi's profile on the dossier Lars has given me. A Hachijou style Karate expert. I think I've heard of it before from sensei, but I'm not sure when. Anyway, she's from a small town in the Tokai Region of Japan, but she knew Heihachi ever since they were kids. They got married in the late 1960s, then of course Kazuya was born into the world. As Heihachi was building his conglomerate, Kazumi caught a mysterious illness. Doctors had no idea where it came from. She died in less than two weeks after falling ill. This caused a strain in the relationship between Heihachi and Kazuya. It may be the reason why Kazuya was tossed into a volcano by Heihachi out of frustration. Not even sensei would do something so crazy against me. The question remains as to how Kazumi returned to this world. What is her plan? She could be an even bigger threat than Heihachi and Kazuya. This is why I'm investigating the other mystery about this vampire legend. The world needs all the allies it can get. Even if it's a necessary evil one."

90 minutes later

Master Raven Log: "I'm closing in at the location of the gravesite. It's under a mansion? This place might have security too. Nothing I can't handle however. I'll come back to this log once I find the coffin."

Master Raven snuck inside the cavern which was still open, but sealed off by caution tape. No one was guarding it, which made exploring much easier for her. The coffin itself was moved, but Master Raven used her infrared glasses and noticed the footsteps and wheels which led back outside. It was taken by a truck. The ninja followed the tracks into the forest just outside the border of Monaco, heading into France. Using Lars's radar device, the ninja finds the burial area when the meter sounded off. The dirt was covered up quite well, so Master Raven had to go back to the hovercraft and grab her digging tools. The process took a long time for the ninja. At last she shoveled up enough dirt deep enough to expose the coffin. To Master Raven's surprise, the coffin was unlocked. She opens it and her eyes lit up to see the vampire asleep.

Master Raven: "So all of my hard work paid off after all. Now let's wake you up shall we?" (Prepares her kuji-un chant.) "Rin, Pyoh, To, Sha, Kai, Jin, Retsu, Zai, Zen!"

The ninja casted a spell using some of her life ki and traded it inside the vampire so she could wake up. Immediately, the vampire slowly opened her eyes. Then she rises up from the coffin and yawned really big to gather oxygen.

Master Raven: "Can you talk? I welcome you back to the land of the living."

Vampire: "Hmm…mmm."

Master Raven: "Are you listening? Look at me!"

Vampire: "Hmm…" (Examines Master Raven. Then she licks her lips.) "You look yummy! Can I have your blood?"

Master Raven: "Oh no you don't!"

The vampire pounced on Master Raven with a grin on her face. She tried to bite Master Raven's neck, but the ninja kneed her stomach hard and jumped out of the hole. The vampire continued to chase her around, until Master Raven teleported out of sight. Looking all around the dark forest, the vampire was confused until Master Raven spoke with authority from above the branches.

Master Raven: "I took the liberty to raise you back into the living world and this is how I get repaid?"

Vampire: "Huh?"

Master Raven: "If you're hungry, take this!" (Something hits the ground under the vampire's feet.) "Trust me! It's good!"

Vampire: "Is this blood?"

Master Raven: "Drink it!"

Vampire (Smells the bottle.): "Wow! It is blood!" (She opens and drinks the glass jar in whole.) "Aaah! I like this!"

The ninja lands back down and approaches the vampire.

Master Raven: "So the legend is real indeed. I hope that satisfied your thirst. It's a special blood type from zebras. I figured you would like it."

Vampire: "What's a zebra?"

Master Raven: "Oh it's an animal."

Vampire: "An animal? This was good, but I would rather have human blood."

Master Raven: "I know a place where you can get that, but first you must listen to me."

Vampire: "Uhhh ok."

Master Raven: "Look at these pictures." (Shows the faces of the Mishima family on her hologram watch.) "I want you to subdue of all of these people shown here."

Vampire: "Kill them?"

Master Raven: "I want them dead or alive. They have been very bad people and made others suffer due to their greed and pride. You take them out and I will make you an honorary member of our organization. This way, you can get as much blood as you wish."

Vampire: "Really? Any blood I wish!"

Master Raven: "Only if you get these guys first."

Vampire: "Okay. I'll do it!"

Master Raven: "Good. So, do you have a name?"

Vampire: "My family called me Eliza, before they all died."

Master Raven: "I see. Eliza call me Raven. I'm the one who woke you up from the coffin."

Vampire: "You did? Oh thank you so much! Say! Where is Emilie?"

Master Raven: "Emilie?"

Vampire: "Yeah! I wanna see her again! Do you know where she is?"

Master Raven: "I'm afraid I don't know this person."

Vampire (Disappointed.) "Ohhh."

Master Raven: "Let's take you to that place I've mentioned before about blood." (Thinks.) "I got a feeling this might not work in the long run. Reviving this girl vampire could come back against me."

Eliza: "Okay."

Master Raven's Log: "I've succeeded my mission in locating and reviving the vampire Eliza. She seems rather carefree, but is constantly asking for blood. I made sure she didn't bite me of course. At least for right now she went back to sleep in my hovercraft. I need some shut eye myself, but not after landing this thing on the rooftops above London. I really hope she can remember the people I showed her in order to eliminate them. Like I said, we need any advantage against the Mishimas to work in favor of the world's safety. One thing that bugs me is this Emilie she mentioned. Who is that I wonder? Probably someone from her past I presume. Anyway, that is all from here. Master Raven
