Love & War: The Black Moons

Chapter 63: M. Bison's Fall

"The elevator is falling," said Tanya.

"Hang on!"

Samus flies down to follow the elevator. It was heading back to Earth.

"It seems the elevator is heading to Brazil," said Samus.

Back in the elevator, Chris watches as Bison's Psycho Power starts to falter.

"We're not done!"

Bison sends s series of Psycho Power columns around Chris, who didn't even move. Even if he struggled, the columns did nothing to stop him, as Chris unknowingly felt more and motivation thanks to jade and Tanya. Chris clenched his right fist, ready for one final strike. He pulls back and launches the Mach Breaker courtesy of Tekken's Bryan Fury directly at Bison, sending him flying on the other side of the elevator. Bison seemed unfazed by this.

"Is that all you got?"

It was all he needed. Bison got up but was starting to fall apart. Even so, the dictator laugh, either out of insanity or confidence that his dark soul would out placed in another body. Chris, on the other hand, would not see it happen.

"A fool confused by his own power. That's what you are, Bison. If there's one thing you haven't learned yet, absolute power corrupts absolutely."

"No... it cannot be..."

"This is your end, Bison. May Hell welcome you in the hereafter... motherfucker!"

Bison charged one more but Chris was just too fast as he countered with a Backspin Kick, sending Bison crashing through the glass into space. Chris noticed that he is returning to Earth. Samus and the girls reached Brazil where the elevator is said to be coming down. They got out and witnessed Bison's headless body crashing down. "Shield your eyes!" Samus ordered. Once it hit the ground, the body exploded in a massive flash of light. As the light faded away, Tanya looked up and sees the elevator making its way down. As it lands on the ground, Chris emerged, drained of his energy and falls down.

"CHRIS!" Tanya and Jade went up him. He was hurting badly but as worse as he thought.

"Are you ok?"

"I need a vacation," he replied. The girls laughed and held him close.

He sees Kansuki choppers, followed by S-F choppers coming to their direction.

"Chris!" It was Karin, shocked that he defeated Bison and stopped the Moons. She was no doubt impressed.

"You did it! But... how?"

"It's the power of love, baby," he replied. ;)

The rest stood before him.

"Nice work, soldier!" said Guile.

"I'm sorry for your friend's loss. He was a good man."

"He taught me well."

The others congratulated him for saving the world again. Samus said to Chris, "I knew you would save the world, Chris. We were watching you."

"I know."

"Now that the mission is complete, I must take my leave."

"Will we see you again?" asked Tanya.

"You will, Tanya."

Chun-Li said to Samus, "Thank you for your help. It's like you predicted that Chris would save the world."

"Prediction? How did you know, Samus?" Chris asked.

"I looked into your files. Your military history, but more importantly, your heroic actions for saving Earth. I made a prediction that you do it again. it appears my prediction was correct."

"I'm impressed, but..."

"I'm sorry, but I needed any information I can collect. It may have been wrong on my part, but..."

"At least now you know, Samus, prediction or not," said Tanya.

"Chris, we will meet again. Until then, I wish you farewell with my gratitude."

"And I thank for helping us, Samus. By the way, I forgot to give you this."

He shows her her emergency pistol. He recovered it after killing Kano and ending his longtime nightmare.

"Thank you. How did you...?"

"Kano stole it after you were abducted. I had it with me the whole time and didn't realize it until now."

"I am forever grateful. I have one more thing to show you."

Samus calls in her legendary Power Suit, arm cannon and all.

Tanya, jade and the others looked in surprise. A galactic bounty hunter in a Power Suit. Samus turns around and heads to her ship with a wave of goodbye. She enters her ship and takes off. As Samus went to space, Tanya asked Chris, "What happens now?"

Chris couldn't answer her question, but he knew that once again Earth has work to do to assess the damage done by the Moons and restore it. Rashid met up with Chris again.

"Dude, I cannot believe you saved the world..."

"No, Rashid, it was you who stopped the Moons. But the process was taking forever so..." He showed Rashid a hard drive containing the data collected for his first attempt. "...this hard drive was from my first attempt. After you entered the code, the process was taking too long. Plus, the countdown was about less than a minute before impact. This hard drive was used to speed up the process, so you, Rashid, have saved the world. I just took care of Bison. The Psycho Power is no more."

"I don't know what to say..."

Chris lended a hand to him in respect, "From one savior to another."

Rashid happily shook his hand and they each bowed in a show of respect. He went to Tanya.

"Listen..."

Tanya interrupted him. "I know what you're going to say. I just wanted to apologize. I didn't realize the Black Moons overtook me."

"Do not worry, Miss Tanya. I forgive you. I realize you and Chris are together."

"You can say that."

Sonya appeared with Queen Sindel.

"Jade, Tanya."

"Your highness!"

"Another job well done, Chris."

"Thanks to this man. This is Rashid of the Turbulent Wind. He was the one that stopped the Moons."

"I'm impressed. Sonya Blade of the Special Forces."

"I believe we met, but during the raid at the base."

"Speaking of that, Shadaloo has fallen."

"How did that happen?" asked Tanya.

"Ask him," she replied, referring to Chris.

"Oh yeah."

"Anyway, it's time to return to S-F. We have work to do to restore New York."

"Yes, Sonya. Let's return home."
