Chapter 12: Training Time, The Super and Cross Arts

Jin and Xiaoyu tried to learn the super techniques that Ryu mentioned to him. They trained intensively but the super technique they wanted to achieve is nothing happened. Both were exhausted after trying to train themselves to learn these techniques.

"Huff...huff... it's no use. I tried so hard... and I didn't attain the super technique." Xiaoyu panted and Jin became frustrated.

"I'm...not given up... I must learn that technique that Ryu showed me. I don't want... to lose my patience..."

"We need some rest, Jin. We're so tired..." Xiaoyu said as she lay down on the ground, exhausted.

"..." Jin lowers his head in frustration and he was still standing while being covered in sweat.

Both were tired of learning this ability. Hunyo and Brian watch them train but they haven't learned the super technique.

"It's hard for them to learn that technique. Just like the super skills in the game." Brian said sadly and Hunyo closes his eyes.

"It's no good if they wasted their energy just to learn that technique."

"Any plans, Hunyo?" Brian asked as Hunyo replies calmly.

"Well, practice makes perfect. It has to be a way to learn that."

"What's that supposed to mean then?"

"Motivating them of course, that's the only way both of them will learn this skill. I'll show it to you." Hunyo said smirking.

"Hunyo... You can't do that." Brian scowled.

"Take it easy, Brian. It will help." Hunyo said as he stands up and calls Jin. "Hey, Jin...!"

"...!"

"Can you do me a favor? Will you heavily punch me in the face?" Hunyo requested as Jin easily declines his request.

"What? You can't be serious? I can't hit you if you are my friend?"

"Don't be hesitant. Just hit me with a single punch. I can't believe a man like you would act like a big baby." Hunyo said getting impatient at him.

"Dang... this is childish." Jin grunted angrily as Xiaoyu tells him.

"Jin... I think Mr. Panganiban is up to something. It's better if you hit him."

"But, Xiao..."

"Trust me; it might have something in it, if you hit him too hard." Xiaoyu telling him as Jin faces Hunyo reluctantly accepts his request.

"Alright, Mr. Panganiban. I'm gonna hit you." Jin said as he angrily tells him. "Don't blame me if I hit you too hard."

"Hmph... that's the guy I know. Bring it on, Jin." Hunyo said as he prepares his fighting stance.

Jin charges at Hunyo and he uses his left punch to hit him to his right cheek with barrage of energy blasts firing at him four times. He jumps higher in mid-air and transformed into Devil Jin executing a concentrated beam of energy at him. Much to Hunyo's shock, he dodges the beam as it explodes behind him. Xiaoyu and Brian were shocked to see him do it.

"Man... that was close..." Hunyo said shockingly as Jin reverts to normal as he gets down on the ground, scolding him. "I told you to hit me once not many."

"Uhhh... Hunyo..." Brian said scarily to him. "That's his supers...?"

"Supers? What do you mean?"

"I did...that?" Jin said confused on what he did while looking on both of his fists and Brian praises him.

"I guess you learned a super technique, Jin. You're a remarkable fighter to learn."

"Um... That's my super technique?" Jin nodded as Brian explains.

"I'll explain this to you. Like Hunyo requested to hit him, right. You use your left punch instead of the right. Then a barrage of energy that comes from your fists, hitting him four times. After that you turn into your devil form and hitting him with a laser beam. That skill would incapacitate his or her opponents with that move."

"Interesting, I finally learn it. Now I can use this skill against my opponents." Jin smiled and Brian tells him.

"If it wasn't for Hunyo, you cannot learn the technique easily. He's trying to motivate you in learning it."

"Okay, now it's my turn. I have to learn that technique too." Xiaoyu said getting confident to learn the super technique.

"All right, I'll be the one to handle you." Brian smirked as he faces Hunyo. "Hunyo, get some rest. After all, he nearly hit you with that beam."

Xiaoyu prepares her fighting stance as well as Brian. Jin and Hunyo were watching both of them were starting to fight.

"Um, Mr. Panganiban... I didn't mean to hit you so bad? I've never expect you can motivate me to learn this technique." Jin said and he felt sorry for hitting him. Hunyo was relieved as he tells him.

"Well at least for the time. I also think other fighters would have one too."

"You mean...?"

"Probably, they try to learn this technique against the other fighters." Hunyo said telling him as both watches Xiaoyu and Brian are going to fight.

Xiaoyu charges Brian with her Chinese martial arts moves, Hakkesho and Hikakken as Brian tries to block her attacks. He provokes Xiaoyu to learn the super technique in which she charges him with a barrage of Hakkesho techniques and make a final strike on Brian to the back. Brian hurts his back thoroughly.

"Oww..."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Navarro... Did I hurt you hard?" Xiaoyu said worried.

"Yeah... that move you execute. It's your super technique." Brian said clutching his back.

"What? Is that my new technique?" Xiaoyu wondered.

"Yes... it's a Hakkesho Combo. You use a barrage of Chinese martial arts blows and palm striking at the enemy as a final blow. One other thing is, your orange bracelets were glowing pink if either you punches or kicks when you attack someone."

"Wow... you're right, Mr. Navarro. My bracelets were glowing pink this is so cool." Xiaoyu said excitedly.

Jin became distressed to hear her happy sounds while Hunyo became disappointed to Brian's uneasy behavior.

"...It's better for her if she goes with the other weaklings. I hate her happy squeaking." Jin said coldly.

"Don't feel distressed about that. I'm getting on Brian's nerves from his uneasy behavior." Hunyo grunted.

After two hours rest, Both Hunyo and Brian were switch places to teach both Jin and Xiaoyu to do the cross assaults and the techniques.

"Brian, are you sure I'm going to teach Xiaoyu with her cross technique." Hunyo smiled.

"Yeah... since you get a trauma from Jin's super technique, we can switch places to teach them. What do you say?" Brian suggested.

"I hate if you give me a high blood pressure, if you try to make me scared." Hunyo grunted angrily.

"Don't blame me if we switch places. I'm sure you can do better than that." Brian said snobbishly.

"We'll see about that, Brian. Don't provoke me..." Hunyo said as he angrily raises his fist.

Jin stands up and ready to train how to use the cross technique in which Brian was waiting for him.

"Okay, since Xiaoyu is right behind you. You might learn the cross technique. A technique use to make your own combos and pass it to your partner to execute her super technique. Do you understand the instruction?"

"Okay...? I'll make sure if I learn this move."

"Good, let's start it now." Brian said as he takes off his eyeglasses.

"Oh boy, he removes his glasses. It reminds me that I fight him a long time ago. I broke his glasses entirely and we continued to fight, Geez..." Hunyo mumbled.

Both engage a fight as they exchange blows. Jin suddenly charges him with a barrage of punches and the reversal punch sending him to Xiaoyu executing her super technique.

"Xiao, do it..."

"Okay..." Xiaoyu execute a barrage of Chinese martial arts moves and palm striking him to Brian's back as a final blow. Brian stands up clutching his back again.

"Um... Xiaoyu... next time, don't hit me too hard or my spine will be broken." Brian said as Xiaoyu cried on his comments.

"Oh...I'm so sorry...?"

I can't believe Brian would be attacked in Xiaoyu's supers. Does that mean mine was?

Now it's Hunyo's turn to teach Xiaoyu to use her cross techniques.

"Okay, Xiaoyu... I'm not going easy on you because you're a girl." Hunyo remarked as Xiaoyu tells him.

"Mr. Panganiban... you look pale or something. You need some medication..." Xiaoyu said worried as Jin tells her.

"I guess he's afraid of me, Xiao."

"Oh..."

"Okay, no more conversation. Let's bring it on." Hunyo said as both engaged in a fight.

Brian watches the fight as Ken arrives to see them.

"Hey, how's the training?"

"Both of them finally learn the powerful techniques. I don't know from Hunyo, he looks afraid..." Brian said as both continue to watch.

Xiaoyu then charges him with a few combo moves as she makes a strike in mid-air sending it to Jin to execute his Devil's Beam super technique in which Hunyo fears of.

"Okay... here goes..." Jin punches him to the right cheek while firing a barrage of energy blasts on him. He highly jumps in mid-air, transforming into Devil Jin, executing his concentrated beam of energy to incapacitate Hunyo. But, Hunyo manage to avoid the beam as it explodes behind him. He became nervous and frustrated about this.

"All right... I finally learn my cross technique!" Xiaoyu was excited as Jin nudges her sadly.

"Xiao... you may learn the cross technique. I think you made Mr. Panganiban get angry."

"What?" Xiaoyu look at Hunyo as she gasped. "Agh... Oh no...!"

Hunyo became enraged at Brian and blames him for his actions.

"BRIAN! I told you don't put me in Xiaoyu's place when Jin's executing his super moves! YOU GOT THAT?"

"Calm down, Hunyo you might get a heart attack." Brian said as Hunyo angrily chase Brian as Ken, Jin and Xiaoyu watch the old people are chasing like children.

"YAHHHHHH! I'll GET YOU FOR THIS!" Hunyo yelled angrily while chasing Brian in rage and he was stressed from Jin's Devil's Beam.

"Please, Mr. Panganiban... we didn't mean to do it." Xiaoyu pleads to forgive Hunyo and Ken scolds him.

"Well, I guess you apologize to the old man, Jin. You stressed him out, big time." Ken said as Jin turned around and lowers his head in frustration.

"I didn't intend to stress him out...? Owww, why does this happening to me!"

After training, they let Hunyo stay inside Gouken's temple to calm his anger down. He sips some jasmine tea. Jin enters to see him as he apologizes him for hitting him twice.

"Mr. Panganiban, I'm really sorry... I didn't mean to stress you like that. I've noticed you were afraid of my super technique."

"It's fine... that blow would definitely kill me if you use it." Hunyo said calmly while closing his eyes.

"..."

"I hate if anyone who were trying to provoke me. That's why I'm furious to anyone who makes me stressful." Hunyo said sadly as Jin became worried to him.

"Mr. Panganiban, please...if you keep your anger like this. You might get a heart attack. Just like what Mr. Navarro tries to calm you."

"You're just like the others. They were always worried if I get a heart attack or getting a high blood pressure. Too bad, I didn't get this kind of stuff." Hunyo said as he encourages Jin. "You need to try your best and don't break your sweat while you're in training. That's how a fighter's way."

"Thanks for your encouragement." Jin smiled thankfully and he tells her. "You need some rest, Mr. Panganiban. It's not good for your health if you're not resting very well."

"Sure... now why don't you go with your friends around. They are in outside." Hunyo said nicely.

"Okay... but I have to ask Ryu about his motive in searching the Pandora's Box." Jin said as he dismissively walks away. Hunyo became relieved after his conversation with Jin as he thought.

This is strange for me; I felt that I was talking to my older son of mine. Oh well, at least for the time. I need some rest by now...
