Kokoro's Story
Kokoro defeated Bass and Hitomi, so now, it was time to fight her next opponent.
Kokoro finds herself walking through the DOATEC courtyard marveling at the monstrous building befor her. Just as she approaches the door she hears a familliar voice. "Kokoro, please leave while there is time, no one knows yet that-" the frantic voice was cut off "we are half sisters?" Kokoro finished turning around to face Helena. "Noone must know that! Donovan will send assassins!" Helena said urgently. "Why? I'm not leaving until you tell me. Please tell me about father, my mother refused me any information that had to do with him." Kokoro pleaded. "Very well." Helena said looking down in defeat
. "You're just like me." she mumbled, but she continued, "Your father was the leader of this place." Helena motioned to the great building behind Kokoro. "They alter human DNA and create monstrosities to do their bidding. Donovan is a scientist and would become the head of this place if both you and I were dead. And they don't know about you yet and you have to leave before they find out!" Helena said begging Kokoro. "No, I can't leave with that kind of guilt. Not as long as you're in danger, after all blood is thicker than water." Kokoro replied. "You don't understand." Helena assumed her bokuho stance as Kokoro's heart raced and the fight began.
Helena furiously attacked Kokoro, not out of hate or anger, but out of fear and desperation. Helena rose from bokuho into an upper cut and directly hit Kokoro squarely under the chin. Helena winced at every single ounce of pain she cause her. Helena kicked her on the ground, forcing Kokoro to stand, Kokoro stayed crouched preparing to kick low at Helena to prevent her from going back to bokuho, but Helena grabbed Kokoro's guarding arm and cracked it, Helena had hoped to break it to keep Kokoro safely out of the tournament any further, but it didn't.
Helena the turned Kokoro, still holding on to her arm, and punched her in the back with palm strikes, essentially forcing Kokoro away from her. Helena sat in bokuho in wait as Koko got up slowly. Kokoro charged, with a low kick that had force Helena to stand so as not to fall, and Koko followed up with a strong palm to Helena's chest. Kokoro ran up after her following through with the vigorous assault of three punches sending Helena to her knees. Helena lay face down, Koko approached cautiously.
Kokoro saw it but too late. Helena scooped herself up and kicked twice, swiftly and landed gracefully into bokuho. Kokoro was stunned, Helena dashed up and threw her into the air, Kokoro landed clumsily, slightly dazed. 'Mother, I must return for mother. . .' she thought to herself. She crawled up and tried a high wake up, but Helena used a low kick, from which she stayed into the crouched position, Kokoro fell face down. Helena attempted a bokuho duck, but Kokoro was too quick, she gathered her feet under her and shouldered Helena with everything she had, Helena screeched as she was too weak to go anymore.
Kokoro defeated her sister with a heavy heart, tears streaming down her face, her sister provided the best fight of all. A great burden has just been placed upon her. Christie, whom had been watching from the shadows silently, slips away with malicious intent and her purpose nearly fulfilled.
Kokoro had just finished battling Ryu, Eliot, Lisa, and Brad Wong when Christie appeared. They stood looking at each other. They were in an office area, with desks and chairs randomly placed about the room. Christie laughed evilly "If only you could die before her eyes. Just like her mother" Christie said with an evil red blaze in her eyes.
Kokoro's eyes widened, as she was paralyzed with fear. "Who are you?!" Kokoro cried. "For all the longer you'll be living . . . that's quite irrelevant." Christie cackled. Kokoro looked off to the side, quite afraid. "You don't know me, but I know you. . ." Christie said. Kokoro took a step back. 'What is this?!' Kokoro thought to herself.
"Now, you die." Christie said as they both fell into stance and the fight began. Kokoro charged with a swift elbow, but Christie countered, Kokoro screeched in pain. Kokoro scrambled to her feet. She turned so her side was to Christie and raised her arms as if she were shrugging, delivering a punch to Christie's abdomen. Kokoro let Christie have a furious assault of punches to her face and ribs.
Christie, quite battered had had enough.
They fought until they were both exhausted. Christie knocked Kokoro down with a throw and was just about to kill her. Christie extended the blade she had hidden in the heel of her shoe and raised her foot above Kokoro's head. "Sayonara" Christie said coldly as she attempted to bring her foot down, but Kokoro countered it and threw Christie into a desk from which the secretary fled. Kokoro got up and wiped herself off, she could hardly believe she had almost gotten killed, and that she had just won the tournament.
She raced into the corridors and into Alphas lab. Kokoro rushed to her bloody and battered sister's side. "Kokoro?" she inquired. "Come on, I'm taking you home, sister." Kokoro said smiling into Helena's sad eyes.
Ending Movie: The Silver-haired angel
Kokoro returns home to her loving mother, Miyako and brings her sister Helena too. They sit on the tatami mats and enjoy the tea ceremony as they all prepare for the sakura festival. Kokoro is adorned in her usual pink kimono and Helena, a white one with all shades of yellow and blue flowers on it, and beautiful beads and clips adorning their hair. Miyako smiles at seeing her daughter so happy. Kokoro and Helena walk along a remote path and across a bridge. Helena felt quite awkward, having a family now. She gazed for a while into the deep blue waters as Kokoro went on. She found a figure dressed in white hovering under a tree. She looked to be sure that Helena was occupied as she hurried forward to see her drunken, silver-haired angel.
