Street Fighter X Mai-HiME Stage 15 – Twin Dragons


"As the gang left Fuka to travel the world, Ryu informs the party that their first destination is Hong Kong. Their first objective is to find Gen, an assassin who has connection to Chun-Li's father. The gang manage to run themselves into two Kung Fu brothers, Yun and Yang."


"Hey, Ryu. Where are we going now?", Natsuki asked.

To which Ryu illiterates, "Before we can rescue Mai's little brother, we need to go first to Hong Kong. Chun-Li just told us that we need to find the elder named Gen."

Natsuki then asks, "Since when does Gen have a connection with Chun-Li?"

"Gen is a good friend of my father. Since he is also an assassin, he communicates with my father's spirit.", says Chun-Li. "He also know that Bison was held responsible for my father's death."

"I see, now I know someone like yourself have been carrying grudges against Bison.", says Natsuki.

Then, Ryu continues... "And that's the reason why we need to look for him to find answers of Bison's whereabouts. Gen is a silent and wise, yet a sickly old man. And on that note, he tries in vain to fight to end his life."

"What? How could he ever fight in his kind of age? That's suicidal!", Natsuki responds about Gen's nature of fighting.


The helicopter soon arrived into an US airfield in Hong Kong.

"Here we are! Ladies and gents, welcome to Hong Kong!", shouted Guile informing that they have landed safely.

Ryu asks Chun-Li, Guile, and Cammy where are they heading, "Where are you guys, going?"

Cammy answers, "We'll be moving on to find Gen. What about you?"

"We'll be checking out the entire city to see something interesting.", says Ken.

"Yeah, I also want to see some famous movies here.", sneered Nagi.

"If you guys have met up with Gen, let us know.", says Ryu, as Chun-Li, Guile and Cammy split up from Ryu, Ken, Mai, Natsuki, Mikoto, and Nagi moved on to explore the entire city.


We take you back in the Fuka Academy...

In classroom 1-B - where Natsuki has her class there - the homeroom instructor introduces the exchange student for Natsuki, Hokuto.

"I'm Hokuto, it's nice meeting with you guys.", as Hokuto introduces herself to the class.

Natsuki's classmates assure of Hokuto bearing a striking resemblance to the latter.

As Hokuto goes to her seat, she is greeted by Akane.

"Hi, Hokuto-san! I'm Akane."

"Hey, it's nice meeting you either.", says Hokuto.

"You kinda remind me of Kuga-san. You look just like her.", says Akane. Hokuto shook her head and sighs, "What ever you say. What makes everybody think that Kuga and I are 'look-a-likes'?"


Meanwhile, in Hong Kong.

**BGM: Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition Soundtrack - Theme of Yang**

As the gang traveled around the town, they look for a place to have lunch. They got themselves into a restaurant called 'Shinryuken' (possibly a nod or a pun for one of Ken's Super Combos) owned by two Kung Fu brothers.

As the party entered the restaurant, they were greeted by two young girls, Hoimei and Shaomei.

"Welcome!", the two girls greeted the party.

"Hi, are you two girls working here, too?", Ryu asked.

"Yes, sir. While Yun and Yang are out protecting the city, we usually do our duties here.", said Shaomei.

As the party stayed in the restaurant for lunch, what came into Natsuki's mind are about Yun and Yang.

"Those two boys mentioned by the girls working here, are twins?", Natsuki asked.

"Yes, Natsuki. You may distinguish the two in terms of their personality and appearance.", Ryu answered. Natsuki then continues her question, "So those twins are renowned peacemakers here?"

While the gang enjoy their lunch, the two brothers entered the restaurant and are surprised of the guests before them.

"Shaomei? It's us!", yelled by the young man with a jagged bangs - Yang. Shaomei runs into Yang, embracing him. "Yang, we got guests!", she yelled.

Next to Yang is his twin brother distinguished by his baseball cap, Yun. In a flash of rage, Hoimei runs into Yun and proceeds to grab him by the ear, "HEY! Where the hell you two have been, you've got us all worried!", to which Yun reels in pain getting dragged off by the latter, "Ow...! Ow...! Watch it, Hoimei!"

The party stared at Hoimei squeezing at Yun's ears. "That's gonna leave a mark.", Natsuki remarked.

Now the gang are done with their lunch, Natsuki attempts to break up the fight.

"Okay, that's enough you two.", Natsuki said, as the scuffle ends.

Yun shook his head as he points towards the blue-haired HiME; asking her, "Hey! Did Chun-Li sent you guys here?"

To which Natsuki responds, "Sort of. Are you two boys are brothers?"

"Yep.", Yang responds. "Say, you've come Fuka, right?", he asked. Natsuki then answer's Yang, "Yeah, what about it?"

"Are you up for some sparring? Me and Yun, against you.", he insisted. "At sundown, outside the resto."

"Humph, you're on!", Natsuki accepts Yang's challenge.

Much to the gang's surprise, Ryu comes to warn Natsuki about Yang, "Before you could fight those boys, Natsuki. You must remember that Yang has a brazen and powerful fighting spirit, and yet unpredictable moves. While his brother in the other hand is somewhat a show off."

"Not a problem.", Natsuki remarked, "So, did you fought him (Yang) before?"

"Exactly...", Ryu said. "Hey, Natsuki. Are you sure taking on those brothers by yourself?", Mai asked.

"Numbers games don't matter to me. I won't be holding back either. So, let's just see how worthy opponents those two are.", Natsuki sneered.


Sundown, in the skate park outside the restaurant. The battle begins...

**BGM: Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition Soundtrack: Theme of Yun**

*The battle has begun, FIGHT!*

"Duran!", Natsuki materializes her Element and summons her Child in front of the Lee brothers. "Go!"

Much to Yun's surprise. "Check it out, bro! She's got some big guns!" To which Yang responds, "Not a problem. Just follow my lead, Yun."

Yang then instructs Yun to split up, "Here she comes!" Yun takes on Duran, knocking it out with a Tetsuzanko. Yang focuses on Natsuki, shooting at Yang several times with her Element; Yang evades fire and hits a Senkyutai on the latter.

"You're fast, aren't you?", Natsuki asked. To which Yang responds, "It's because I've read your every move!"

"Seiei Enbu!", as Yang activates his Timed Combo mode. "Look! How many of myself are there? Count them quickly!"

"Grr...! There's too many of him!", Natsuki fumed, only to be caught off guard by Yang's unpredictability.

"Time's up!", as Yang surprises Natsuki with a Tourouzan strike from behind.

"Natsuki!", Mai shouted as the latter again heaves up on to her feet. Nagi then comments on Yang's brazen tactics, "If I were Natsuki, she should've focus with the skateboarding dude over there taking over Duran."

"Duran, take on Yang, let me at the other side!", Natsuki orders Duran to change sides, she focuses on Yun instead. But Yun manages to follow his brother's lead. "How do ya like this!?", as Yun prepares for his You Hou, palmstriking Natsuki, sending her in midair with a Tetsuzanko, "Get ready!", and he proceeds to fling Natsuki with a high upward punch into the air.

However, Natsuki manages to escape from the attack by bouncing from the air thanks to the You Hou, Natsuki counters with the Tenmakujinkyaku, Yun evades the attack. He counters with the Sorai Rengeki, flinging Natsuki into the air, followed with Yang with the Tenshin Senkyutai; as Natsuki is sent into the air, Yun leaps into the air, catching Natsuki and rides on her back like a skateboard, "Time to show off a little!", Yun then plants bicycle kicks that sent Natsuki face down on the ground.

*VIEWTIFUL!*

Natsuki again struggles and is back on her feet. Yun then gets back focusing on Natsuki, the two exchange few blows, and with well-timing, Natsuki was able to defeat Yun with a Cammy's Quick Combination counterattack. Now, she has to focus on Yang.

"Duran, load Silver Cartridge!", Natsuki attempts to fire icicles at Yang, "Fire!"

As icicles head straight for Yang, he dissolves them to freezing dust by performing his Tourouzan.

"What!?", Ryu and company shouted in disbelief. "The Silver Cartridge didn't even budge on him!", Nagi muttered.

"I'll show you!", as Yang corners Natsuki, adopts a snake stance, and prepares for the Raishin Mahhaken. Yang hits an upward swipe with a smaller Tourou Zan that leaves him on the far side of Natsuki, then a vertical Tourou Zan, then a jumping, flipping hand slash which hits multiple time, another Tourou Zan which leaves him on the original side that he started on,.

"Raishin...", Yang runs in blinding speed readying the dashing pressure point strike from the Super Art version, "...Mahhaken!"

Natsuki then slumps into the ground, with Yang saying "Look's like you couldn't avoid that one."

*STYLISH!*

"You're quite resilient.", Yang said, as he sees Natsuki again standing up with her own power. Natsuki now figures out how to outsmart Yang...

"Duran, load Flash Cartridge!", in an attempt to blindside Yang, Natsuki orders Duran to load a Flash Cartridge, shouting "Fire!"

Now that Yang can't see a thing due to the light from the Flash Cartridge, he attempts to run in a blinding speed away from it. Natsuki then disappears before his eyes. Natsuki attacks from behind, as Yang attempts to counter, Natsuki then counterattacks Yang with his own Tenshin Senkyutai; giving him a mouthful of his own medicine!

As the Senkyutai connects - similarly seen Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition - Natsuki plants a flurry of upward kicks before finishing with two forward high kicks to the face. Then, Natsuki leaps into the air - much more with Yun's - rides on Yang's back doing skateboard-style tricks on him before kicking him several times back to the ground. However, the fight is far from over, just as Yang lands into the ground, Natsuki hits the Shin Shoryuken. Thus, ending the fight; and Natsuki being the victor.

*CRAZY!*


After the fight, the gang celebrates Natsuki's win over Yun and Yang. With the twins managed to congratulate them thereafter.

"Wow, Kuga. Countering our attacks with our own moves was stylish! How did you ever come up with that?", Yang asked.

To which Natsuki responds, "Actually, I have experienced on barehanded fights before."

Yang continues, "So, you're a HiME, right? Now that makes sense."

"Where did you guys learn about us?", Natsuki asked.

"We just ran into Chun-Li and told us about you three (Natsuki, Mai, and Mikoto).", says Yang. "And are you looking for old man Gen?"

"Yes, Chun-Li has an errand in order to find out the reason why who killed her father.", says Ryu.

"Okay. But before you guys can go on, how about spend a night with us?", says Yang.

"Great idea.", as Natsuki approved this. The gang stayed with the twins in order to continue their journey by the following day.

"You've learned Tenshin Senkyutai!" - [from Yang]

Description: Natsuki does a roll like kick to the opponent and lifts them up in the air with her.

While the opponent is in air in the aftermath of the move, Natsuki will followup with the skateboard tricks ending with bicycle kicks that sends the opponent back to the ground.

"You've learned Sorai Rengeki!" - [from Yun]

Description:

The attack can be done in two seperate ways:

1. Natsuki will swiftly attack her opponent several times and afterwards kicks them up into the air with her. She will then do a skateboard like spin on the opponents back in the air followed by another spin to keep him/her at bay. She will do drill like kicks to his opponents back forcing them to hit the ground faced down finishing the Ultra.
