My gift to you all is this chapter. xD Stay tuned for the next chapter, it's going to be intense. But I hope you enjoy this one. Especially those who wanted more Xiaoyu x Devil Jin moments. ;)

I guess bringing up his mother wasn't such a good idea... Xiaoyu brought her face up to the mirror that Jin broke.

I should have known his mother was a sensitive subject for him... She thought with sadness. This is what.. the third time he has walked off on me?

Xiaoyu a rose from the bed and slowly walked towards the broken mirror. She looked to where her face was on of what remained left of the mirror. She looked solemnly at herself in the mirror for a moment until suddenly a crack formed in the middle of her face on the mirror. This sudden occurrence caused Xiaoyu to flinch with eyes widened. She then took a step back from the mirror to compose herself.

I should have just went home... She sighed.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Xiaoyu furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. He's back already? She mentally questioned.

The door then opened.

"Jin?"

Jin slowly walked outside with his head down and hands in pocket. It was a quiet afternoon on this side of the town. It is one of the smallest towns in Australia, close to the one he once trained in. He continued walking on the sidewalk not necessarily knowing where to go and began to drift in his thoughts.

To protect me from darkness?

Jin, now in a small park, made a stop by a bench and sat on it.

What makes her think she can do that? Jin took his right hand out of his pocket and stared at his palm.

I've already been consumed by darkness. It cannot be undone.. Which is why I keep her away in the first place. Jin thought.

"Mommy?"

Jin slowly lifted his head.

"Mommy, where are you?" A little boy nervously looked around his surroundings.

"M-Mommy?" The boy sat on the grass wailing. "I'm alone.."

Alone.

"Hey, are you ok?"

The little boy brought his attention to a girl of his age with blonde pig tails.

"I-I lost my mommy..." The boy replied.

"Wait a sec! Is your mommy the woman with the green flowered dress?"

"I think so..." The boy sniffed.

"Well c'mon!" The girl took the boy's hand and led him on as they walked.

Jin quietly watched the scene as it transpired. Then he saw the boy jumped full with excitement and hug a woman with a green flowered dress. They merely stood happily until the boy hugged the little girl which caused her to giggle. Jin assumed he was thanking her. Suddenly the word "mommy" echoed in his head. He remembered when Xiaoyu brought up his mother, specifically saying it was her that asked Xiaoyu to protect him. He knows Xiaoyu would never lie to him, he just did not know how to sink in the information. Why would his mother request to do such a task? A task that is not doable.

But more importantly, why Xiaoyu?

Why her out of all people? She is the only one left that is close to him. The last thing Jin wants is to lose control of the Devil and hurt Xiaoyu again. Or even worse, kill her.

The thought of that almost made Jin sick. Jin rose from the bench and began walking again to attempt to clear his thoughts once more.

Xiaoyu rushed to the door to see who had opened it and there stood the guy from the front desk.

"Is everything all right in there, ma'am? I heard some loud noises come from here." He said standing outside the door.

"Oh, uh..." Xiaoyu looked to where Jin shattered the mirror on the wall then remembered when he loudly slammed the door. He must have disturbed other residents.

"Uh, yeah everything is fine! I just uh... we uh-"

"It's all right, you don't need to explain. I get young residents all the time and hear all sorts of noises. But please do keep it down." The man said turning his back to Xiaoyu to leave.

"Phew." Xiaoyu quietly closed the door in relief. "That was close." Xiaoyu put her back to the door and sighed.

"Ugh where's Jin?"

Asuka quietly opened the door and switched her head from left and right. She saw there was no one in sight and proceeded to enter the hallway. It was quite late at night but Asuka wanted to see Lili before she leaves tomorrow. Luckily she was able to peak at the nurse's clipboard and find Lili's room number. Asuka continued to tiptoe through the halls searching for Lili's room number.

Found it! Asuka thought when she located a door with the number "701" imprinted on it.

Asuka again looked both ways then knocked on the door. She received no response and simply opened the door. The room Asuka entered was pitch black, she was unable to see.

"Lili? You in here?"

There was merely silence.

Asuka then applied her hands on the wall in search for a switch to the light. When her fingers felt the familiar shape she switched it upward and instantly the room became lit.

"...A-Asuka?"

Asuka shut the door then turned her attention to the blonde on the hospital bed.

"Lili..." Asuka spoke with a soft tone filled with worry.

Lili laid on the bed and slowly tilted her to look at Asuka. On Lili's face there was a cast that covered her nose. She had little bruises around her nose and her face seemed quite swelled. She also had dark circles beneath her eyes. Asuka had never seen Lili in such an unpleasant state like this before.

"What are you doing here..?" Lili asked in a husky tone.

"Just came to see how you were doing." Asuka replied, taking a seat on the chair beside Lili.

Lili didn't answer but scanned Asuka until her eyes paused on the arm with the cast.

"Asuka...your arm."

Asuka too looked at her arm and placed her other hand on the cast. "Yeah.. you were definitely unconscious before he broke my arm."

"You mean, Jin?" Lili asked.

Asuka curled the fingers that were on top of her cast.

"...I'm sorry." Lili said.

Asuka brought her gaze back to Lili. "Don't be sorry. Why are you sorry?"

"It's just..." Lili turned her face to the ceiling. "I know you and I do not get along, however.." Lili returned her eyes back to Asuka. "I knew you were going to be in big trouble so I had to help."

"You didn't have to."

"I WANTED to."

There was a moment of silence.

"...Why?" Asuka broke the silence.

However, Lili remained quiet and looked right back at the ceiling. Asuka mentally sighed and decided to scratch that question. It was a rather simple question to ask but complicated one to answer.

"Never mind, don't answer that." Asuka stood up and began to exit the room. She opened the door and stopped. "But thank you for helping me.." Asuka quietly turned off the light and shut the door behind her, leaving Lili with a hidden smile on her face.

Xiaoyu remained in the motel room for hours walking back and forth, patiently waiting for Jin to come back. She tried very hard to fight the urge to lay on the bed and fall a sleep.

I'm not going to sleep until Jin comes back. Xiaoyu thought. However, the thought of laying down in a comfy bed and relaxing her body after a long day of running around flooded her mind. She stopped moving then sat on the bed.

What if I have another nightmare again? The thought slipped in Xiaoyu's head. However, she still continued to lay her whole body on the bed without putting any covers over her.

I'll just take a little nap... until he gets.. Xiaoyu slowly shut her eyes.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Xiaoyu's eyes instantly snapped open

"Jin? Is that you?" She said hoping off the bed, preparing to open the door. When she opened the door there before her stood Jin himself. Jin however did not come empty handed because he held a plastic bag in one of his hands. Xiaoyu did not say a word and moved to the side to allow Jin to enter. When Jin walked into the room he placed the bag on the bed and Xiaoyu closed the door.

"There's snacks in the bag in case you get hungry. I know it's not enough but it's just temporarily till tomorrow." Jin said with his back facing Xiaoyu.

"Oh..okay." Xiaoyu sat on the bed and searched the bag. She saw it was nothing but bunch of junk food that typically come from vending machines. Xiaoyu was not quite hungry and simply pushed the bag aside.

"Xiaoyu."

Xiaoyu raised her head from the bed.

"I'm sorry about earlier..." He sat on the chair by the mini kitchen table. "Xiaoyu.. all I want is for you to be safe. The thought of you being in danger pains me, it is the reason why I get so angry."

"Well I've decided... I will go home."

"You do realize it's far too late for that?"

Xiaoyu didn't reply as a frown formed on her face.

Jin merely sighed. That was his original plan until it was ruined. The money he used for her ticket was from the home of the family. At this point he had no money left after buying some food for Xiaoyu. He would have to think of another way to get her home.

Jin glanced at the clock and realized it was midnight. "Xiaoyu," Then he looked at her. "You should get some sleep."

"I guess..." She replied with her eye lids half open. Xiaoyu then took the blanket and covered herself as she laid herself down on the bed. Before closing her eyes she peaked at Jin, finding him still staring at her.

"What about you, Jin?" Xiaoyu asked referring to him whether he will sleep too.

"I'll be fine. Just sleep."

Xiaoyu accepted his empty response and closed her eyes.

I hope I don't have another nightmare.

Nina blankly looked out the large glass window of the office while sipping on her coffee mug. Mornings were always quiet and peaceful for Nina. However, ever since the incident she has been overly stressed. She knows the Tekken Force will not be able to find Jin so easily themselves, which is why she requires the android to track him down.

The phone suddenly ranged.

Nina slowly approached her desk, put down her coffee mug, and picked up the phone.

"Hello?" Nina spoke first.

"Ms. Williams."

"Raven? What is it?"

"I have the Android with me. We will be at the Mishima Zaibatsu in approximately 10 minutes."

Less than 48 hours... Impressive. Nina displayed a faint smirk. "All right, I'll be waiting."

The phone was then hung up on both lines simultaneously. Nina picked up her mug and sipped her coffee once more as she waited for Raven and Alisa to arrive.

Xiaoyu peacefully woke up from her slumber and sat up. She yawned and stretched her arms. She then rubbed her eyes and realized Jin was not in the room.

"Ugh where did he go now?" She questioned in a husky voice.

Suddenly a male scream emerge from outside the door.

"W-What was that?" Xiaoyu then slipped out of the bed and walked to the door. She quickly opened the door and exited the room.

"Hello?" Xiaoyu spoke. Suddenly Xiaoyu yelped as she stepped into a red puddle on the floor. She took her foot out of the puddle and realized there was literally a trail of dark red fluid going out the front door.

"W-What...?" Xiaoyu said confused at the sight. She then quickly followed the trail until she stopped at the front desk and realized the man was no longer there.

"What's going on?" Xiaoyu questioned again. She continued following the trail and found herself outside of the motel. The trail stopped right in the middle of a street.

"Huh?!"

Suddenly there was fog everywhere and the clouds completely covered the sun. Xiaoyu looked at all her surroundings, everything had suddenly vanished all around her.

"XIAOYUUU!"

Xiaoyu's eye widened in horror.

That.. that sounded like Jin!

"XIAOYU!"

Suddenly the fog in front of Xiaoyu disappeared and there revealed to her vision was Jin sitting in the middle of the street with his head down and hands on the ground. He was covered in blood and wounds. He sat there creepily just digging his red fingers in the hard concrete.

Xiaoyu was freaked out by the scene, she was speechless. She then slapped her hands on her ears and closed her eyes while shaking her head violently.

"NO, NO! WAKE UP! WAKE UP! THIS ISN'T REAL!" She gritted her teeth as tears slipped from her eyes.

"Xiaoyu..."

Xiaoyu's eyes snapped open.

"S-Save me...from.."

Her eyes were bulging.

"Darkness." They both said.

Suddenly claws appeared around Jin's head and in a split second his head was ripped off his neck. Blood squirted out of his neck and his body fell to the side on the ground. Xiaoyu screamed her lungs out as the figure who murdered Jin gave a sadistic laugh and dropped Jin's head to the ground. The figure stepped forward, walking over the worthless corpse to fully reveal his identity.

"NO!" Xiaoyu screamed and slowly began to back up.

Devil Jin revealed his fangs in the most insidious smile Xiaoyu has ever seen and again laughed. Xiaoyu shut her eyes again in desperate attempt to wake up.

"MAKE IT STOP! PLEASE!"

"Oh Xiaoyu..."

Suddenly Xiaoyu was roughly grabbed by her shoulders and forced to look at another cruel sight.

"Oh.. my.. god..."

Right before Xiaoyu dead bodies piled everywhere, not a live soul in the air. Some bodies were missing limbs as others were severely wounded with large openings and cuts. The only color that could really be seen was red.

Xiaoyu then felt a hot breath on her ear. "All for you.. All because of you.."

"No!" Tears continued to flow from her eyes. She has never felt so mentally tortured before.

Again Xiaoyu was forced to move as the claws forced her to turn around and face the devil.

"You like my masterpiece, my lovely Xiaoyu?"

Xiaoyu did not reply and refused to look the devil in the eyes. Devil Jin then placed his arm around Xiaoyu's waist and pulled her close and used his other arm to force Xiaoyu to look him in the eyes, causing Xiaoyu to gasp. He then gently ran his claw over her bottom lip, causing a small amount of blood to ooze out. He began to slowly close the distance between their faces, Xiaoyu's eyes remained wide.

"You are all mine now." He whispered as he was an inch from her bloody lips.

Xiaoyu merely responded in a terrorized scream to which she woke up and found herself sitting up on the bed.

"Xiaoyu? Are you ok!?"

Xiaoyu snapped back into reality when she realized Jin was inches from her with his hands on her shoulders. He had tried shaking her out of her sleep. Her hands trembled violently, still feeling the shock of the dream. She continued to breathe really fast. Jin moved his hands to the top of her hands.

"Xiaoyu, calm down."

Xiaoyu flinched from Jin's touch. Her trembling stopped when she made eye contact with Jin as he sat at the end of the bed with his hands still over hers.

"...Jin."

"Are you awake now?"

Xiaoyu slowly nodded her head.

Jin removed his hands from hers and got off the bed. "Good. We need to get out of here immediately." He put on his hood.

"Wait.. what? Why?" Xiaoyu questioned.

"It's not safe here anymore, now let's go." Jin opened the door and exited the room.

Xiaoyu did not question him any further and quickly hopped off the bed. She sprinted out the room to catch up to Jin.

"Jin, wait up!"

"FREEZE!"

Xiaoyu gasped and blinked with wide eyes. Red lasers were aimed everywhere on her including Jin who had his hands up with his head down. Police cars and officers surrounded them.

"Put your hands up!"

Xiaoyu quietly obliged, putting her hands up.

"And you, with the hood!"

Xiaoyu looked to her side, to the only person who wore a hood at this moment.

"Take it off, NOW!

Jin remained still.

"Do it or else!"

Suddenly the sound of multiple guns cocked emerged, making Xiaoyu gasp.

Jin finally began to slowly bring his hands to his hood. There was a moment of silence that the only thing that could be heard were the beats of all the officers hearts as they waited eagerly for Jin to remove his hood.

Jin's hood was finally now off.

The crowd of officers gasped.

"Mother of god..." one of the officers spoke in disbelief.

"It.. it really is him!" Another spoke.

"It's Jin Kazama!"

"The cameras proved to be right!"

"Cuff them NOW!"

"Jin!" Xiaoyu shouted as the officers roughly grabbed her arms and cuffed her hands from behind.

Jin too was snatched by the officers and was cuffed from behind. Xiaoyu, however, was confused. Why was Jin being so easily captured like this? Wouldn't he just fight back like he did to those security guards back at the airport? Or perhaps it was because he did not want to lose control of the devil?

Most likely.

Xiaoyu then felt hands push her forward, shoving her towards the police car. She looked to her side and saw Jin too was being shoved into a different car. They both made one last glance at each other before being completely pushed in the car. The officers shut the doors and proceeded to enter the cars as others began entering their vehicles as well to leave. Xiaoyu looked out the window and noticed the vehicle Jin was in was going a different path than hers.

Xiaoyu felt her heart drop.

Where were they going to take Jin? Are they not both going to the same location? What if Jin was being sent to something far more worse than her considering his infamous status to the world?

Xiaoyu lowered her head in worry.

Jin...

Jin sat with his head down as the vehicle drove the opposite way of the one Xiaoyu was in. It is his fault Xiaoyu was dragged into this in the first place. He had tried desperately to push her out but now she has become a significant element to his life that he can no longer keep away.

It is far too late to change that now.

Where is MY Xiaoyu..?

Jin's body stiffened as his eyes grew wide.

No...

How dare they take away what belongs to me!

No..no.. not now!

I WILL BREAK THEIR BONES, I WILL TEAR THEIR BODIES APART LIMB FROM LIMB, I WILL RIP THEIR INTESTINES OUT, I WILL HAVE THEIR BLOOD.

"No..." Jin hissed under his breath.

I WILL KILL THEM ALL...

"NO!"

For her...

...BECAUSE of her.

"Hey will ya' shut the hell up back there?" The officer in the passenger seat said now looking at Jin, only seeing the spikes of his hair as Jin still had his head lowered. When the officer saw Jin made no attempt to speak again he turned his gaze back to the front.

"No."

The officer turned around in annoyance."What did you just say kid? I'll-"

The man cut himself off when he saw glowing white eyes and fangs right in front of his face.

"Kyoufu wo oshiete yarou!"
