Ok, I'm lazy so this took me a lot longer than it normally would. Anyway, this is chapter 4 and it will be alright at least.

Disclaimer: I haven't owned any of this since the first chapter, so what makes you think I own it now?

P.S. To any Maxi fans out there, sorry for making him the punching bag. I hadn't really planned it, but it happened. He was drunk, and looked like he would take any women, so there it is.

The Choice

Jin was visibly seething. The guards were strewn about the office, the office door had been ripped off its hinges and was now laying shattered on the side walk at the bottom of the building, with bits of the broken window it had flow through scattered around it. Jin stood in the middle of the office with his hands around the neck of an old man.

"Heihachi," Jin growled, "What did you do?" Jin's eyes blazed with rage. Jin wasn't the only one there wanting answers. Behind him were Hwoarang, Asuka, Ling Xiaoyu, Wang, and even Kazuya.

"I…didn't…do…anything." Heihachi choked out. Jin threw him down in disgust.

"How do we know that?" Kazuya asked dangerously.

"I swear, if it is true you could not let my friend rest in peace, then I WILL end you." Wang warned.

"Honestly, I didn't do anything. Think about it, what possible benefit to be could there be at having Jinpachi around be?" Heihachi asked.

"Well you're the only one who has the resources and technology to be able to pull this off." Asuka said from the back.

"That's right," Hwoarang declared, "No one else would have any idea of who to do such a thing."

From behind, Julia, Armor King, Ganryu, and Yoshimitsu came in through the open door. Julia marched right up to Heihachi… and began to slap the crap out of him.

"What did you do!?!" Julia yelled. Armor King came up from behind and picked Julia up in a bear hug, pinning her arms to her side so she didn't beat Heihachi into unconsiouness.

"Ugh… Why does everyone think it's me?" Heihachi groaned.

"Well you are the most likely." Yoshimitsu said.

"I didn't do it." Heihachi whined.

"Well, if not you, then who?" Ganryu asked.

Far from Japan in a diner in New York, another group was discussing the same topic.

"Hey Forest, could ya get me another bowl of this ramin, and could you put in some extra sweet pork and so spicy shrimp." Craig said as he stacked his third bowl next to him. Forest Law nodded as he began to fry up some more pork and set up the pan to cook more noodles.

"Hey, if you're willing to pay, we'll cook for you all night." Marshall Law laughed as Craig dug into the new bowl with a passion.

"How can he eat so much?" Lili asked as she watched.

"I have no clue." Steve said.

"Can we get to the problem at hand?" Eddy asked, watching this little episode, with a hint of amusement. "What are we going to do about Jinpachi and that weird sword he had?" He asked.

"Well, isn't it obvious?" Steve asked. "We hunt him down and finish him off."

"And how do you suggest we do that frenchy?" Paul Phoenix asked. They had met Paul in Marshall's diner when they arrived. He had seen Jinpahi just like the others had.

"He's British you neanderthal." Lili said in Steve's defense.

"Who you callin' a… Wait, what was it?" Paul asked. King and Christie sighed as they watched the two bickering.

"Do you think it was Heihachi?" Christie asked King.

"No, I don't believe it was." King said. "What benefit to Heihachi would having Jinpachi around be?"

"Good point." Forest called from the back, still frying food. He had switched to chicken.

"If there is no motive, then it obviously wasn't him." A voice said from the door way. Everyone in the diner turned to see who the voice belonged to. In the door way stood an eloquently dressed women with high heels and short brown hair. Steve smirked when he saw her.

"Hello auntie." He said.

"You know I hate it when you call me that." Anna Williams said frowning.

"HHEYYY BAABBYYY!!! You come for some of Craig right?" Craig said loudly as he stood up and walked towards Anna. Steve winced as he saw a vein pop on Anna's neck.

BAM "Ugh…ow…" Craig muttered as he sank to the floor holding his groin. Eddy just shook his head, crossing his legs slightly.

"If she didn't want him the first time, what makes him think she'll want him this time?" Eddy whispered to King. King looked down at his partner and chuckled quietly.

"If the games are over, can we get around to the subject at hand?" Anna asked, cooling off a bit.

"I believe we should seek out the others. If our numbers are greater, then so will our power." Raven said. Marshall jumped, as did everyone else as they just noticed Raven standing next to Marshall behind the counter.

"H-h-how did you get here?" Marshall asked.

"I'm a ninja, it's what I do." Raven said with a slight smile.

"Can we get back to the problem now?" Christie asked.

"We still need to have a way to find him." Steve said.

"If we could get a tracking device that could read DNA, we could track him down." Anna said.

"Um… wouldn't Nina have something like that?" Forest asked, now trying a new recipe for beef on his Mongolian BBQ.

"She does seem well equipped." Marshall noted. (A/N: Not like that you sickos.)

"You may be right." Anna said.

"I'm going to assume you can't get in contact with her though." King said. "You probably don't make social visits."

"Right again King." Anna said.

"Don't worry, I can track her down." Raven said, pulling out a device from one of his pockets.

"That won't be necessary." A new voice said. Anna instantly stiffened when she heard it. Marshall noticed this, and turned to her.

"Please miss Williams, not in my diner." Marshall begged.

Anna gritted her teeth, grinding them slightly. "Fin, but only for now."

In the doorway stood Anna's sister, Nina Williams. "Do you think you can do it?" Forest asked as he continued to fiddle with his recipe for beef.(A/N: He's really dedicated to his food isn't he?)

Nina stepped on Craig's stomach as she crossed into the room, causing him to groan again.

"Yes, I am, but where can we get his DNA?" Nina asked. Craig was able to mumble out an idea as he lay on the floor.

"What…about…Jin…? They…both…have…the…devil's…blood…right?"

"Welll, I don't see why not." Lili said getting down from the counter she was sitting on. "I could arrange for our transportation. My family's jet should do quite well. That is, if you all behave." Lili said, staring pointedly at the Williams sisters. The two women looked at each other, then looked away. "Alright." Nina said.

"Good." Lili said, clapping her hands together. "On to Japan."

"WAIT A MINUET!" Paul said as he jumped up. Through out the entire conversation, he had been looking through a dictionary. "Lili, how dare you call me a…" Paul squinted down at the page and read, " Neanderthal, a primitive man back in the Jurassic period. Large and muscular, but with a mental capacity of very low grade who could only manage to accomplish very basic human functions. Never able to think in a coherent manner."

King slapped Paul in the back of the head. "You're an idiot." He said as the others filed out. To Lili's limo which had pulled up to take them to the mansion. "I should probably call Armor King," King thought. "Maybe he has some ideas for this."

A man on top of the building across the road from Marshall's diner watched from a pair of binoculars. He spoke into the radio he had. "So…should I follow them?" Silence, then… "Negative Bryan, we have already sent Sergei Dragunov to the mansion to keep track of them. Rendezvous with the Jacks and come back to HQ."

"Rodger that." Bryan Fury said. He turned and began to run and jump from roof top to roof top, his perpetual generator pumping him full of energy. "Damn," He thought. "Not even allowed to kill anyone. I guess, if it is discreet, I could-." THUD Brya raised his head from the roofs floor. He had missed his landing and had slammed his face onto the ground, putting a large crack in it. "Ow." He said.

Back near the Mishima Zaibatsu, another man was watching the scene between Jin and the others unfold.

"So," He said speaking into his radio, "It appears that Heihachi Mishima was not the cause of Jinpachi Mishima's return. Should I investigate further?"

"No Feng, we have an undercover agent working to get more information." Said the voice on the line. Feng raised an eyebrow. "Really, who?" "She is known as Miharu Hirano." Feng was surprised by this. "Is she not the friend of Ling Xiaoyu? Why is she working with us?" There was a slight laugh on the other line. "She was persuaded to join us. Now, please join up with the Jacks for your debriefing, and then come back to HQ." Without a word Feng left and ran to the alley where he was to meet the Jacks.

My, my, my, the plot thickens. Any way, stay tuned, we return to the Soul Caliber world for the casts thought.
