The Iron Fists recollected themselves after the heinous attack by the D.O.A. "Is everyone alright" said Jin as he wiped blood from his mouth. Jin then saw Xiaoyu holding her arm in pain. "Xiaoyu, are you all right" Jin asked with concern. "Y-Yeah" said Xiaoyu, who was trying to hold back tears. "Don't move it" Hwoarang said. "That was a unsuspected sneak attack they did on us" Marduk said. "I say we get those cowards back for what they did" Marduk continued on. Marduk's rambling of revenge made Jin yell. "SHUT UP!!" Jin yelled. "We'll get them back sooner or later" Jin added. "And what allow them to come into our territory and come and go as they please" said Hwoarang. "No" Jin began. "The D.O.A. got their revenge on us for what we did to them last night and now we have to strategize" Jin said. "What good strategy will do" said Hwoarang. "This is a war, right" Jin asked. "A war on the streets, yes but not a real war" Hwoarang said. "I know that, Hwoarang" said Jin. Jin then addressed his crew. "Two years ago, we declared war on them and they accepted" Jin said. "Well now, we must go to extremes" Jin added with a pause as he saw the injured crew before him. "GUERILLA WARFARE" Jin yelled. "D.O.A., you're going to pay for your cowardly assault" Jin said to himself in his mind.
It was around 12:30 A.M., and the D.O.A. made it safely back to the west side of L.A. where all of them rendezvous at the local taco restaurant. "Hey, Ayane" said Hitomi while chewing some of her burrito. "The way you broke the girl's arm was awesome" she complimented to Ayane. "Hey, I break bones for a living" said Ayane who was sipping on her soda. Hayabusa meanwhile, was wondering where Kasumi was. "Where's Kasumi at" said Hayabusa anxiously. "Relax, man she'll show up" said Zack. "Easy for you to say" said Hayabusa in a sarcastic tone. Just then, Kasumi, along with Hayate, Jann Lee, and Lei Fang showed up. "Kasumi" said Hayabusa. "Where the hell were you, I was worried about you" Hayabusa said. "I'm fine daddy" said Kasumi in a sarcastic tone. "What you said" said Hayabusa as he put Kasumi's back up against the wall. "I-I'm fine" said Kasumi. Hayabusa then hugged Kasumi. "Here comes the freakin' cops" said Leon. "I would like to speak with you kids about vandalism" said Officer Lei Wulong. "Man, go on with that crap, this isn't school" said Zack. "You tell him, Zack" Bayman complimented as he ate his taco. "You're doing it all wrong again" said Officer Gen Fu. "You new cops these days" he mumbled. Gen Fu took out a billy club and whacked it over the sore head of Kasumi "OW" Kasumi yelled. "Hey, man why you hit my girlfriend" Hayabusa said as he jacked up Gen Fu. "Get your hands off of him, right now" said Officer Lei Wulong as he pulled out a tazer gun. "Stand back, I can take them" said Officer Gen Fu. "Really" said Hayabusa. Hayabusa brutally beat down the helpless, old cop while Lei stood there as he watched helplessly as Gen Fu was getting assaulted. Lei took out his gun and shot a warning shot up in the air. The shot threw Hayabusa off-guard, allowing Gen Fu time to land a hit on Hayabusa with a billy club. Lei got a bloody Gen Fu and headed for the cop cruiser. "Beat it, punks" said Hayate as everyone stuck the middle finger as they watched Lei and Gen Fu leave the scene. Hayate and Zack threw their plastic cups and wrapping paper at the cop cruiser. "Come back some time, bitches" said Hayate as the cop cruiser rode into the night. Jann Lee and Lei Fang came out of the taco restaurant and saw Hayabusa with a bloody nose. "What we missed" asked Jann Lee. "I whooped some old geezer before his buddy cop shot a warning so that he can get a lick on me" said Hayabusa as he wiped blood from his nose. "Yeah, and Zack and me trash that crap cruiser" said Hayate. Lei Fang looked everywhere for Kasumi until she spotted for her telling her to come where she is. "What's up" said Lei Fang. "You know that letter I wrote to that guy that I met at the donut shop" said Kasumi. "What about it" Lei Fang asked. "I was trying to get it to him during that fight and I didn't realize that he was the leader of the Iron Fists when I saw him again" said Kasumi. "I pretty sure that he got it" Kasumi said. Little did Kasumi know, that Ayane was eavesdropping on her. "A letter huh" said Ayane to herself.
As the Iron Fists cleaned up their backyard and headed back in the house to rest up, Jin found a crinkled piece of paper at his feet. He started to throw away but he cautiously opened it to see if there were any more booby traps. It was only a letter written by Kasumi. "A letter" said Jin. Jin read the letter and this is what it read.
Dear JinI hope I spelled your name right, I think. Anyways, I wished that this gang war between your crew and my jealous boyfriend's crew, the D.O.A. would stop so that everyone of us can go on with our daily lives or at least get a life. I don't want you to get hurt or have to spend the rest of your lives in a wheelchair or a hospital; this "war" isn't worth dying over for control of a city. I cry at night knowing this battle over nothingness won't end until all our dead. I wish to speak to you more.
Sincerely, Kasumi
P.S. I don't know how to say this but… I think I have a crush on you.
Jin was baffled after he read the letter that Kasumi left behind. It was only a matter of time for him to find Kasumi to meet up with her again and find out why she started to have feelings for him, even though they're on rival gangs. Jin sighed and put the letter in his left pocket and headed for bed.
