Good day or night everyone. I have been having a ton of spare time lately, but I have been reading more than typing. I love the work that other writers put forth in their works. But I'm back now so shall we? (Standing there before you then gesturing with my arms to a nice world) The song for this fight is "Main Menu" From Ultra Street Fighter 4 or you can use the original track if you want to.

Lights and buzz of various noises consumed the arcade. The place just brimmed with life and love, several loners and groups. The sight was a great experience, Liam slowly walked around the place. Games of dancing with directional arrows, on rail shooting games, along with fighter games, and various fun ones that looked like they can kill a day of boredom. While walking Liam saw one that caught his eye the moment he saw it. It was "Supreme Road Brawler 4." Wow, another update, six new stages and five semi new characters even though they exist in series, Liam thought.
"Oh well, I got to try this one out." Liam reached in his pocket to greet his wallet.
The moment he took a peek inside it was taken from his hands and a young girl was running through the maze of the arcade.
"Hey, stop!" Liam began to chase after the girl.
Liam was running as fast as he could to keep up with the girl. She was ducking everyone and traveled through the openings from the back of the arcade monitors. Liam was too large to do the same so he circled around them. One person dancing on the games he passed was the dark skinned woman he met in the elevator. Liam ran into her and ruined her score for a dance game.
"Hey!" The woman was on the ground. He quickly turned around and kneeled down to lift the woman.
"I'm sorry." After his apology he stood up then began to sprint to catch the girl.
"Where do you think you're going?" The woman was following close behind Liam.
Liam lost his concentration for a moment then ran into a wall. "Argh." Liam's left shoulder felt a strong pinch then a slow burn. The girl that took his wallet looked like she was beginning to slow down.
"That girl took my wallet. I just want it back." Liam panted.
"Oh." The woman nodded. "Need help?"
"No thank you." Liam began to jog to catch up with the girl. The dark skinned woman smiled then walked in the same direction.
The girl was panting in front of soda vending machine then opened Liam's wallet to count the spoils. The place was a vacant plaza with a bit of wide open space in the center that is lower than the sidewalks. Liam saw the girl and slowed his breathing for that would be a dead giveaway. The girl made a fist then raised it to the air saying "I did it!"
His wallet was resting on the girl's opposite hand. Liam reached forward and took the wallet back. "Almost."
"What, I thought I lost you." The girl stomped her foot.
"Almost, what do you need my wall-"The girl began to shout over Liam.
"Someone help! This man here took all my money!"
Liam quickly scanned the area noticing several people raising their heads like mirecats to the girl. The area was slight deserted though.
"Hey hey." Liam bent forward. "No need to cause a scene." Liam felt a hand rest on his right shoulder. Liam turned around seeing a young man in a purple hoodie with a blank expression.
"Is there a problem here?" The man asked.
"Well you see this girl here took-" Liam was cut off again.
"THIS GUY SNATCHED MY WALLET AND CALLED ME STUPID."
"Well that isn't nice." The man frowned.
"Wait a moment." Liam took a step back trying to explain the situation.
The man in the hoodie circled around and the girl hid herself behind him. When she did, she stuck out her tongue and pulled down the skin under her right eye. Liam brought his hand close to his chest while his wallet was in his right hand. The hooded man extended his left arm and took the wallet. He then passed it to the girl. "Get going."
The girl smiled, bowed and jogged out of sight.
"Now, you need a lesson in manners." The man turned to Liam. "And pain."
Liam was about to say something but the man mule kicked Liam launching him in the air and fell down the center of the plaza. He landed on his back.
"Ow." Liam moaned, he was feeling better from his fight from earlier and didn't think this would help at all. Instead of complaining, Liam got his feet.
"Dude, can't you just wait a moment to hear my side of this argument?"
The hooded figure stood there with his arms crossed. He was ready with red gloves and his clothing looked the part too. The pants and hoodie matched in purple and it was decorated in orange and red flames.
Begin the whichever song here.
"There isn't a way out of this isn't there?" Liam uttered loudly.
He smiled then took his stance.
"Damn it." Liam reached in his pockets and applied his gloves onto his hands. "You owe me a wallet." Everyone must be blood thirsty, Liam thought.
This fight will not go so well. First off he is still slightly sore from his fight against Nina and Anna. Second, this guy looks like he is well rested while his stance hinted that this guy also has attacks that involve precise and strong strikes. And third, that girl still made off with his wallet.
Right before Liam could take his stance the area was beginning to spout water and the lights began to flicker various colors. Liam was in awe of how the light scattered itself over the reflection of water making the place seem so surreal. After the initial spouts of water the fountain began to wave around and the lights danced within the droplets of water.
"Hey, time to come back to reality guy." The man stood there looking disinterested.
Liam snapped out of his observation and took his stance yet again. The two was standing there and with an invisible announcer with the word "FIGHT" rang in both of their minds.
The water was still streaming when the hooded man dashed through the water. Liam breached himself the man did a right hook into Liam 's arms as he protected his upper body seeing the man through his fists. Liam was about to counter attack and then the hooded man signaled on how he was about to raise his right leg then stopped. Liam decided to take advantage of the opening to see the hooded man spun round to trip Liam instead.
Liam lost his balance then bending his lower body slightly he looked up to see the hooded man crouch with his right leg forward at ninety degrees and the hooded man brought his left fist power punching Liam's chest pushing him back.
Man that hurts. Liam rolled backwards then stood up again. The hooded man walked slowly toward Liam as the lighting turned to red and orange. As the man walked to Liam, the colors made it look like he was approaching with watery fire at his back.
Liam ran forward and lunged himself towards the hooded man with both of his hands forward. The hooded man didn't expect this and he was trying to do the same power punch was interrupted. The hooded man fell backwards and landed on his back. Liam rolled forward from his attack and turned around and sprinted forward again.
"Ole." The hooded man rested on the ground until the Liam can close enough. He did a quick push up and did a left low kick. Liam saw this as the hooded man did this too early and as he was reeling back his leg. Liam jumped then grabbed Jin and landed on top of him. The hooded man's arms were pinned and Liam did three right punches into the man's chest and two left punches but the second left punch was blocked as the hooded man freed his right hand. With a strong grip the hood man shoved Liam's fist away and with a brief moment he kicked Liam back.
After the shove away Liam was stumbling while the hooded man returned to his feet. Liam took a step forward trying to do a grab. The hooded man ducked in and avoided Liam's grip. He was just before Liam. He did a quick gab into Liam chest, after that he raised his left leg hitting Liam's right hip, from the attack Liam leaned to his right and was punched again with his right fist on Liam's side and another left jab and finally with a right kick to Liam's shin. All of those attacks made Liam's nerves scream and he took a step back using a wall as support.
This round ended in the hooded man's favor.
"Not bad." There was a sudden burst of water at the man's face. The hood fell off revealing his head and hair. The man looked of Asian descent, young, and his hair was jet black and brushed back like a horn. From that he had several locks of hair dangling over his forehead. He kept a calm expression.
"Thanks." Liam separated himself from the wall. "Can I have a name?"
"Defeat me to find out." The man crossed his arms.
"Jin! What are you doing here?" A feminine voice called from above. It was Ling Xiaoyu.
"Aw come on Ling. You ruined the moment." Jin flailed his arms in slight disappointment.
"So Jin, you ready?" Liam smiled.
"You bet." Jin took his stance and jumped with his left leg to launch Liam.
Liam side stepped Jin and when he landed Liam came in with doing a right punch, left punch and uppercut on Jin's back and he was pushed forward. Jin laid there and rolled to his left then returned to his feet. Liam waited for Jin to make a move. His patience paid off. Jin grew tired of waiting and took a step forward, seeing that Liam was ready for a high attack he aimed low with his left leg jabbing Liam's shin. From there he reeled his leg back and did a follow up high kick aimed for the chest.
Liam was pegged in the shin but kept his guard. He then grabbed Jin pulling him closer to him. From there Jin struggled to loosen Liam's grip but reacted too late. Liam readied his left fist near his hip then brought into Jin stomach. In doing so Liam's left leg was placed behind Jin's right leg. Liam elbowed Jin in the chest then brought his leg up and Jin fell backwards landing on his back. He laid there and raised his back and feel limb for a moment,
Round 2 went to Liam.
"Come on, take care of him Jin!" Ling shouted above. Liam looked up to see Leo and Lili with her.
Jin returned to his feet and waved his right arm aside like he's discarding the pain. From that point Jin removed his jacket to show that he was wearing a grey t shirt underneath. Straightened his back and smiled.
This round is serious now, Liam thought. Jin and Liam made a slow approach to one another and Liam was about to do left jab from his palm. Jin responded quickly by going a faster left jab to Liam's chest, then a right jab, and while Liam was stunned Jin brought up his left leg high and brought it down on Liam's shoulder. His body behaved like a spring of bending downwards but reeled back up then Liam landed on his back. The in a second Liam felt a heavy punch rain down onto his right shin.
Jin brought his arms back as the attack seemed to take some concentration. Liam rolled backwards, then regained his balance. The water began to take shape all aimed near the center of the fountain. Jin lost sight of Liam.
Without waiting Liam jumped through the water with his right armed by his head. Jin ducked and brought his arms close as if making him more alert. It didn't work though, as Liam brought down a heavy first that slammed Jin downwards. He laid there for a moment and did a heavy push up to lift his body entirely. Liam stiffened his guard.
Jin straightened his body then he stood on his tip toe for moment taking a deep breath bringing his right arm back. Jin blinked his eyes and with a straight punch it sent Liam flying through the air. Liam rolled backwards and returned to his feet he sprinted to the center and Jin did the same. Both raised their right fists and both met at the center of the fountain. Jin and Liam brought their fists closer to both of their faces. At that point in time the water stopped with the surrounding facets and it focused the finale at the center too. The water was so thick it hid Liam and Jin as both of their fists met their faces. The sights shifted to make the water glow in gold and stopped.
Jin and Liam were seen falling backwards and the fountain stopped.
Song should end here
From the top Ling jumped down to help Jin. Liam leaned up seeing Ling supporting Jin's head.
"Call that a draw?" Liam suggested smiling.
"That sounds good to me." Jin made a thumbs up and smiled.
"Wow, talk about interesting." Liam looked above to see the same dark skin woman he bumped into earlier. She offered her hand, and Liam accepted. Before Liam could speak the woman waved his wallet before his eyes.
"Lose something." She teased.
"Yes, thank you miss-"
"Call me Christie." Liam nodded and noticed Christie wearing a casual sky blue t shirt, with blue jeans cut off at the shins and laced slippers that looked like they have a strong grip.
"How did you get this?" Liam asked
Christie didn't answer and instead she waved her hand behind her. From there the girl who took his money appeared.
"I'm sorry I took your wallet and made you the bad guy." She hid her hands behind her back but kept eye contact. She looked like she was about thirteen of fourteen years old. She was wearing an American music band black shirt called the "Bullshifters" with brown shorts.
"Apology accepted. What were you going to use it for?" Liam asked the girl.
"Well to go buy some snacks and whatever."
Liam was happy that she still said sorry. So Liam reached into his walled and took out ten thousand yen. "Here."
"Wait really?" The girl widened her eyes.
"Sure, take it before I change my mind."
The girl was hesitating but she took the money and bowed. She sprinted off into the night.
"Aren't you a nice guy." Christie slapped his back to see Liam baring his teeth as a sign of regret.
"It's a gift and curse."
Liam exited the fountain and Leo and Lili laughed on how easily his money was taken and they left to rejoin Asuka who was still shopping for clothes. This time Christie decided to tag along for a while too. And so the night continued.
Hello everyone. I hope you liked my description of the Electronic Fountain from Tekken 6 which is my favorite stage of that game. It looks lovely and the music was awesome too. Also why did Jin and Liam have a tie? No reason, I thought it would have been cool with the fountain feeding off my imagination. (Chuckle) Well see you next time.
Samuel the Optimist: (Standing in my room with the lights on. Which I think is still a good distance) I see, I guess you're still swagging to read this. Also, cool to know you like anime too. It's so cool to see various works of art with boundless imagination. Well, thank you for the mention of good story.
