That morning Pans sizzled and oven timers went off as Koji had made breakfast for him and Ibuki. It was the second time she stayed over at his place since the Geki incident. But now that they have grown close together, it became permanent stay, even if they weren't an official newlywed couple.
He was nearly finished making the preparations. Ibuki come down downstairs yawning and embraced Koji from the back wearing a sleeve shirt with legs expose and hair let down. She gave him a good morning kiss on the cheek.
She greeted. "Hey good Morning dear."
"Hey there, good morning babe." Koji replied.
The two young adults laughed together because of the introductions, they were already starting to sound like a married couple. Yet, they still joked around together. It has already been a while since they were together.
"Breakfast is ready, let's set up." He announced.
"You never told me about your folks, are they always out of town." She started off.
"It's only rarely that they are home, they have a tough work schedule. Mom is in sales. She makes and sells some of the finest Japanese Kimonos in Japan and is assigned different locations to distribute them. It becomes very hectic after a while."
"Don't you ever get lonely?"
"Sometimes. But with you here with me, I don't anymore."
Later on the two came out of the mall, Koji carried large amount of bags for Ibuki. The date was then interrupted by a loud commotion. One large man with chains wrapped around his wrist was in the face of a man with green long hair man who wearing red baggy pants and jacket like shirt.
"I dare you to say that one more time!" he challenged.
"Very well then. You are disease in my sight; now get out of my way." He insulted.
"You better apologize or else." He threatened grabbing him by the shirt.
"Take your hands off of me you filthy insect." He shot back.
"That's it; I had enough of your insults little man." He threw a punch at him.
It was gone before the punch connected. Before the large man could catch his breath, his opponent delivered a two quarter kick. He brushed his hair as his was down.
"In death, you will find the answers you seek. Now get out of my sight!" he grunted walking away passing Ibuki and Koji. "You street fighters are simple minded fools."
"Man, what's up with him?" Koji inquired.
"Hey that was a little harsh don't you think?" Ibuki inquired.
"What did you say?" Remy had inquired.
"I said, you were a bit rude." Ibuki shot back.
"You know nothing little girl. Street fighters are nothing more but a virus that spreads. The very sight disgusts me." Remy insulted.
Ibuki tried to grab his shoulder, but he instantly shoved her off. Remy grunted as he walked away.
Just then a mysterious limo drove to Remy, a couple of tranquilizers were shot at him, but it was easy for him to block. A white skinned being grabbed Remy ensnaring him in his grip. The tight squeeze was too much as Remy feel unconscious. It not only drained his strength, but his Chi energy as well.
"Perfect, I placed a ninja track device on the car. Koji we should be able to catch up with them in no time." Ibuki said.
Koji easily declined. "Help that ruthless jerk, I don't think so?"
"What are you saying off course we're going to help him?"
"I'm sure he could take care of himself. It's not our problem what dangers he's in."
"Maybe so, but he is still a street fighter, one of us."
"Ibuki, he despise all street fighters, so what the point?"
"Fine, then I'll go there myself without you."
As Remy woke up, he was greeted by a tall dark skinned man with bleached white hair. He was almost built as a Roman Olympic athlete. He held Remy by the chin observing him.
"Take your hands off me!" Remy bawled.
"I hear you've been causing trouble amongst my men." Urien started.
"I see your as ugly as ever Urien, just the very sight of you sickens me."
"Ah off course. You despise the very nature of street fighters because your father ran away from his family to become a street fighter."
"Then tell me why do you fight surely it can for selfish reasons or are you feeling interior to your brother?"
Realizing he touched a nerve. "Twelve kill him, leave nothing behind."
Remy flips backward delivering a double footed kick similar to Guile's flash kick. He had struck Urien and Twelve at the same time. Kunai knives pinned Twelve's arms to the ground as Ibuki had stepped in.
"It looks like your fine after all." She noticed.
"If this is your attempt to save me, it is unneeded." Remy shot back.
Ibuki winked at Remy. "I couldn't just let a fellow street fighter suffer like this."
He gritted his teeth and said. "Grr! don't put me in with you fools."
You two are dead!" Urien charged with blazing tackles.
Twelve started attacking Ibuki by extending his armed into sword like weapons. Due to her ninja training this was nothing, but she had to fine way to beat it. Then he transformed into a direct replicate of Ibuki.
She found herself outmatched by herself as he matched her every move without blinking. Twelve turned his arm into a ax about finish off Ibuki.
"Keep your hands off of her you freak!" Koji called.
He shocked the Twelve project with two electrical wire cords. The shock wave generated through his body making him unable to move. He stood motionless as Koji quickly helped Ibuki up.
"Are you okay?" Koji asked with utmost concern.
"Yeah, thanks to you." she replied.
"That is one ugly impersonation of you. You're beautiful then that. Sorry I didn't listen, I should be able to support you regardless."
While Urien had more power, Remy was more agile. After exchanging blow for blow, the circled around each other for a final strike. Both street fighter put all their energy into their palms and focused it into one attack. They clashed with quite damaging blows.
In the end, Urien was down.
Remy scoffed as he walked away. "What a sore sight?"
"Hey pal it can't be all bad, when you think about it." Ibuki tried to cheer up Remy.
"Do you even hear yourself; fighting victimizes people, destroys love, and creates hatred. If you continue down this path then you're a fool." Remy shouted.
"Maybe, but I see street fighter from a different perspective. I'll never go down any dark path."
"Humph, well it's your funeral, and then you'll see I'm right."
Koji pondered in bed with Ibuki his side. "I wonder why he fights if he's just criticizing every street fighter he meets. It doesn't make any sense. Seriously what is his problem?"
Ibuki cuddled Koji in bed. "Forget it Koji, he just has it rough. We can't change the way he thinks. He'll have to find out his own path in life. Maybe then he'll find the answers he needs. Then maybe we could become friends."
"Yeah right that would be from decade to never." Koji said.
Remy decide to seek solace as he wondered through the watery abyss as he looked upon his sisters frozen corpse. It had been awhile since he came to visit, and he nearly forgot about her. He rubbed the ice cold shell with remorse.
"This will be the last time I visit this place. I've been dwelling in the darkness for so long. It was the darkness of becoming a warrior. For the sake of my happiness, I must forget everything. I cannot forgive you yet father."
And thus Remy seen the light at the end of the tunnel, he never believe he would see the light see so brightly. To discover the meaning, he begins his walk leaving his past behind him.
He smiled. "Goodbye, my sister…"
