Chapter 5: Revelation

Meanwhile, Kazuya couldn't track the power so he waited for it to be felt again. Day by day, it didn't come back but someone came back, his son, Jin Kazama; already beating four participants straight without losing. He thinks Nina's on his side knowing she easily escaped a day after her capture. He doesn't want Jin to be a headache again so he decided that he will fight him himself, he gave him a chance to live but he wasted the chance.

Jin was currently waiting for his next opponent while thinking of Lili then suddenly "Get ready for the next battle, Jin Kazama vs. Kazuya Mishima" Jin was slightly shocked but he expects this. As they face in the ring, observing each other, Jin rushed to him. Reacting quickly Kazuya used his mist step and attempted to hit Jin with a kick knowing his axe kick missed few seconds earlier. Jin blocked the kick and answered a punch. Kazuya was hit that made him step backwards. Jin furiously unleashed a series of punches that left him stunned. Then Jin positioned himself and let out a single electrifying punch which sent Kazuya flying across the ring as red sparks surround him and Jin's arm.

Jin wasted no time and ran towards him. Kazuya ducked at his flying kick. Jin realized his mistake but it was too late to react, he was hit by a lightning screw uppercut. Kazuya waited for his son to stand up as he observe the effect of his attack on him but he felt the power again, he's sure it's not from Jin, he was eager to find the source so as Jin stood up he was caught by Kazuya's reign of terror move followed by the rampaging demon. Jin was knocked unconsciously due to the force of the attack while the audience cheered as they remember the chaos Jin brought to the world. Kazuya quickly left after that.

The presence vanished an estimated kilometer from the source. It led him to Mishima Estate where he saw his mother's carving on the wood showing her great love for his father, Heihachi. Still confused, Kazuya went back where he was challenged by Miguel. Reports show that he was too eager to fight him, and then he realized what caused this after he saw his information.

Soon, Kazuya found himself facing his opponent. Out of pure anger Miguel furiously attacked him. His attacks are punishing but Kazuya managed to block most of them. He quickly pulled Kazuya and threw him across the arena. Seeing his efforts are nearly nothing to him, Miguel suddenly laughed as he approached him slowly. Kazuya rushed to him but a single powerful blow sent him flying again. Enraged, Kazuya slowly stood up but Miguel is nearly in front of him. As Miguel approached him, he punched him on the stomach which stunned him. A double face kick soon followed. Assuming he won, Kazuya turned his back to him but Miguel quickly stood up and kicked him at the back. Miguel held Kazuya up and unleashed a flurry of punches. But he noticed his left eye glowed red that caused him to momentarily stop. Shortly after that two powerful punches took him down as Kazuya emerged as the winner.

As he turned his back, someone jumped on the arena and transformed. Knowing the presence Kazuya smiled as he transformed to his devil form. It flew above as it shot a laser, destroying the roof of the arena. Shortly afterwards Kazuya followed him, leaving the crowd unsatisfied.

Kazuya was brought above the Hall of Judgment where Devil Jin stopped. Knowing Jin is unable to control the power inside him again, Kazuya quickly attacked him with incredible speed, unleashing blows from every direction. Jin unable to think properly tries very hard to block all of his attacks. However, Devil Jin suddenly let out a series of lasers while roaring loudly. Some hit Kazuya but he did not hesitate to attack as it did not damage him whatsoever. He rushed to Jin and punched him in the face, dodging many of the lasers. A knee to the stomach followed but Devil Kazuya quickly executed another electrifying uppercut which sent Jin ascending to the sky. Kazuya followed and shot a laser above Jin until he crashed to the roof of the Hall of Judgment. Satisfied, Kazuya approached the unconscious Jin on the ground. He lifted him and about to suck his power. Suddenly a familiar voice was heard telling him to stop. He dropped Jin and turned around slowly. He saw a glimpse of what should be dead long time ago, the sight of his mother, Kazumi Mishima. He was shocked and confused, too many questions running to his mind.

"Yes it's me son, it's me all along…" She said breaking the silence

"H…how?..." Kazuya answered

"It's not necessary anymore, you must defeat me, you must end my long misery. You must end this cursed bloodline. You're destined to do it."

Not knowing how to react Kazuya froze. Before he could react, Kazumi transformed into his devil form and attacked Kazuya who can't transform into his own suddenly. Not wanting to hurt his mother, Kazuya endured the pain of her blows. A tiger suddenly appeared and attacked him also. He was still blocking all of her attacks not trying to attack but a powerful kick sent him flying across the room. Kazuya remembered what his mother said. The words "end my long misery" is echoing inside his head. Kazuya regained focus as he saw his mother rushing towards him. Her fiery wings ignites violently as she reached Kazuya and grabbed him on the throat through telekinesis, Kazuya was now trapped as he realized the fire burns him, it's not like lava in volcanoes, it's something worse, something extraordinary. Shortly afterwards he was thrown again across the room. Struggling to get up, he punched the floor as he feels powerless, a kick in the face soon followed. As he lay down on the floor, weakened he saw his mother about to lift him again by the throat. Kazuya is now suspended in the air as purple miasma escapes his body. Knowing the meaning of this, he retaliated by punching Kazumi with what's left in him. His mother stepped backwards feeling the power of the punch. Kazuya let out a forceful kick which sent his mother flying through the room. Fueled by rage, Kazuya threw wooden debris to his mother. He followed where it hit and as soon as he saw it moving, he let out an axe kick to the back of his mother's head. He lifted her but a tiger interrupted him, biting him in the shoulder. He groaned in pain but he caught the tiger and launched it in the air. Few seconds later, he unleashed an uppercut which sent it flying upwards, destroying the roof again. He turned his head to where his mother should be but she was nowhere to be found. He was kicked in the back few moments later but he regained control when Kazumi was caught to his two faced kick. After that he lifted her and unleashed a devastating straight punch.

Kazuya slowly approached her dying mother who transformed back to her human form.

"Do not let the devil conquer the world… be its cage… contain and control it up to your death… do not be power-hungry, son…" Kazumi whispered to him

"I love you, son" These are her final words before she's completely unconscious. Kazuya lifted her mother out of the hall as it slowly collapsed but he didn't noticed the red miasma escaping her mother's body and getting into Jin's body. As they're far enough from the site, he noticed his mother was being lighter. Suddenly a winged creature emerged from the pile of wooden residues from the collapsed structure. Surprised Kazuya followed it with his eyes before it's out of sight. His arms are now empty as sparkles of tiny particles ascend to the sky. Realizing what could happen and remembering his mother's words, he quickly transformed and followed Devil Jin.
