Chapter 4: Kazama vs Kazama: Street Style
Both Kazamas begin to exchange their blows and Akira watches them fight. Daigo spins kicking at Jin with his Unique Kick as he goes in Mental Alertness 2 knocks him with his Spine Cracker and returns to his Mental Alertness stance.
"I am completely amused... I've never expect that were equals." Daigo said amused to Jin's fighting ability.
"Looks like your punches or kicks are the same as mine which is based on Kyokushin or perhaps my style of Traditional Karate." Jin smirked knowing of Daigo's moves. "You got a charged aura like we do if you knocked me off in one fell swoop."
"I have my reasons why I must fight you. Your eyes can feel the burning passion from fighting. Now I found a worthy opponent." Daigo smirked as his subordinates, Edge and Gan finally arrived in the scene.
"Boss... we're going to tear this guy apart." Edge said while handling his army knife.
"Yeah... this guy just love to whack your face."
"Edge, Gan... what are you two doing?" Akira wondered.
"You two... This is my fight. I want to see this guy how to fight. Now don't interfere." Daigo said telling both Edge and Gan not to interrupted as he removes his Gedo School Jacket showing him in shirtless with a bandage on his stomach and he continues to fight Jin. "Okay then... this is going to be an enjoyable fight."
Both Kazamas continues to brawl and Daigo knocks Jin with a reverse fist and pulling his combo with three punches with his Unique Thrust. Jin counters using three consecutive punches with his Evil Intent and goes in Omen Stance and knocks him with a Thunder God Fist in a forward kick. Daigo charges him and goes for a straight punch to stun Jin with his super technique, True Unique Superior Fists Thrust.
"Let's see if you can stand up with this!" Daigo then follows a series of punches and kicks and go for a straight punch to knock him down. Jin stands up and does not giving up the fight while cleaning his blood on his face.
"I think this will beat you." Jin charges at Daigo and unleashing a 10-hit combo with a series of punches and go for L.L.R.K. with a tremendous Right-Roundhouse Punch with a red lightning embedded on his fist knocking Daigo on the ground.
"Boss are you okay?! Man this guy is tough." Edge said while on his boss' aid.
"I'm alright... It seems that guy was strong." Daigo said and Jin finally helped him. "Why are you helping me?"
"You're also strong, big guy. I don't care if I get hurt from your punches." Jin said calmly to him. "Your sister told me not to hurt you any further. I just want the fight to be clean not in the bloody pulp."
Just then, Ryu, Batsu and Hideo arrived at the park and they found Jin, Daigo, Edge, Gan and Akira.
"Jin, we've been looking for you everywhere." Ryu said worried to his friend.
"Sorry that I left, Ryu... This big guy right here just wanted to fight me while I talk to his sister." Jin said while pointing at Daigo and Daigo recognizes Ryu as the legend.
"You must be Ryu from Street Fighter. The legend who fights in the World Warrior Tournaments. I can't believe that you're with him."
"It seems that your fight with Jin is fierce and both seem to do an equal fight." Ryu said calmly to both.
"You're Jin right... I've never seen you before and you're also a Kazama?"
"This is the first time I've encounter both you and your sister having the same surname as mine." Jin said and finally befriends with Daigo. "I'm from the Tekken game and the reason why my fists is glowing with a red lightning."
Jin glows with a red electricity on his right fist while wearing his red detachable gauntlets and Edge and Gan loves to watch to see him do it.
"Cool... if only I have those stuff with my army knives." Edge smiled.
"Gahahaha...Man... I wish to have these strange looking lights." Gan laughed excitedly and Jin tells him.
"You might fight Ganryu if you like. Sumo wrestlers does have raw strength to beat their opponents."
Suddenly, a figure of an assassin appeared to see them as well as both Jin and Ryu who observes every of their movement and targets Akira with an evil smile on his face.
"This is going to be enjoyable to see them again. I think this woman needs to be dead..."
The asssassin charges using a dark vortex which targets Akira. Jin senses his enemy's presence and remembers his mother, Jun Kazama at Akira's presence.
"Look out!" Jin protects Akira by knocking her over to avoid the blast.
"Jin, what is it?"
"What a surprise...? I've never expect to see a tearful reunion from other schools that I discorded." The assassin reveals to be Kurow Kirishima who finally shows himself to them. "Now that I came back for revenge against all of you."
"Not you again...? I should have known...? I thought you were beaten by Hyo...?" Batsu said angrily at Kurow.
"That was two weeks ago, I wanted to fulfill to eliminate all ties with the Imawano Family. And now... I take it as my revenge from each and every one of you." Kurow said and finally reveals his true purpose. "It's very simple... My revenge is to cut off their heroic data from their respective games using my claws to make sure they cannot go back to their own game. Once the game they came in were disabled, It will be quickly unplugged and never regenerate, hahaha..."
"So it was you who caused the black out and to cut off our data. So this is the reason why we can't go back to our game we came from. I'm taking you down." Jin angrily punches the tree where Kurow was standing as he escapes while confronting them.
"You're brute strength is no match from my claws. You're too slow to beat me down." Kurow commented as Jin angrily gritted his teeth.
"Both you and that red banded fighter would never regenerate once it unplugged. It would be the end of you. Haha..." Kurow laughs evilly as Jin punches him to the face knocking him down. "You'll pay for punching me in the face."
"I'll never forgive you for putting us out of this misery, you ninja freak!" Jin said furiously to Kurow. "I'm going to wipe you down in a bloody pulp."
"Hmph... It's going to be easy both of you. To tell you this, I'm going to capture, Daigo Kazama's little sister to do my dirty tricks. But this time... both of you will not going to last, hahaha..." Kurow then escapes as Jin angrily pursues him as Ryu stops him.
"Ryu, why do you stop me? Can't you see that he was behind who cut off our data? He's going to pay for this?"
"Jin, don't let your anger to be steamed...? You don't know how strong this man is...? I can feel his darkness within him." Ryu said scolding at him and Jin turns back on them.
"I wanted to settle the score with him, alone. You don't know how much hatred I give in to that bastard. Just like my father and grandfather do the same thing."
"Jin please don't go... I know you're upset for what Kurow did to both of you. But you saved my life from him...?" Akira said trying to stop him from leaving.
"..."
"Akira..." Daigo said worrying to his younger sister.
"Batsu, I need to discuss with you and Daigo. I want to know what's going on and why Kurow is doing all of this mess." Ryu said and Batsu agrees.
"All right, Ryu... We'll tell you everything."
"Jin, take care of Akira for a while... I need to tell Ryu everything." Daigo let Jin to guard his sister as the four leave while his subordinates, Edge and Gan followed him. Akira was upset to see his brother leave and she needs to know why Jin saved her.
"Jin, thank you for saving my life back there. I know you had a reason why you saved me." Akira said thankfully and Jin finally face her.
"I had my reason why I saved you back then. Because you were the same as my mother."
"Please... I want to know everything about you. I know you still have a cold personality in you." Akira pleaded to know of Jin's background as he agrees.
"All right, I'll tell you everything. Since we shared about motorcycles, this time it's personal with your story and mine."
At Taiyo High School rooftop, Ryu, Batsu, Daigo and Hideo were discussing about Kurow's revenge and his evil schemes.
"So that's why Kurow did something on both of us and the reason why we can't get back our respective games we appeared." Ryu said and became disappointed.
"Kurow is an ninja assassin sent by the Darkside Student Organization to eliminate my father, Raizo and the rest of the Imawano family. That includes Kyosuke and I as well. It seems that he seeks retribution towards us by cutting our data of being the main character." Batsu explained. "Guess that you and that duckbutted jerk are the main characters from different fighting games?"
"Actually, Jin is considered as the main character but he turns back on everyone in the sixth game he appeared. That's how he became neutral and anti-hero to others and includes us. That's why I guided him on his mission."
"This is difficult as I thought. Batsu do you remember we went to the girls' dress up and dance game called "Love and Berry" where some girls are dancing in tambourine by the time the arcade is closed."
"Uh... oh yeah... It looks like other fighting games were been disabled and unplugged by the time we went there. How do you know that, Daigo?"
"Looks like Kurow is trying to destroy the game where all heroes' data were cut off. This must be his plan." Hideo said telling them. "If that happens more and more fighting games would be gone forever. This time, we have to protect this game otherwise all of us will be unplugged."
"You maybe right, but Kurow is targeting my sister. I don't know what reason he wants to kidnapped my sister. He seems to have another plan to do his dirty work." Daigo said noticing of Kurow's plans and Ryu finally decides to defeat Kurow by teamwork.
"I finally decided that we need to defeat Kurow by teamwork. Maybe this is the chance to recover our heroic data from the game we appeared. We need to tell Jin about this."
"But, you're friend is too stubborn to understand." Batsu scowled and Daigo tells him.
"Don't worry about Jin, Batsu. My sister is with him. I'm sure she tries to let off his steam."
While they have a conversation, Both Edge and Gan watches to see them.
"It seems that boss is trying to cooperate with other schools and the legendary fighter. What do you think, Gan? Should we help them...?" Edge said and Gan replies.
"Yeah, Edge... Since our boss is cooperating with them. We'll going to help them..."
"Good... this should be fun." Edge smiled in excitement.
At Seijyun Dormitory, Akira finally wears her biker gear while in her olive green tanktop tied in her biker jacket to her waist. She finally prepared to fight when necessary as she leaves the dorms. Outside, Jin was waiting for her and she finally arrives to see him.
"Akira... you look good on that outfit." Jin complimented.
"I was known as the Kung-Fu Rider. That is when I pose as a boy wearing my biker jacket and a helmet during the time I enrolled at Gedo High." Akira said smiling as she puts on her biker helmet and she talks manly. "See what I mean... I know I could speak like a man."
"Akira... you're making me laugh. Xiao would never make any silly jokes or posing others, haha." Jin laughed and Akira removes her helmet.
"Hee hee... Let's go..." Akira giggled as both Kazamas went off to the Embankment of the Yamato River.
