Chapter 3: Escape from the Mad Doctor

Jin, Ryu, Daigo and Yoko proceeds on their mission to find Akira and Yoko's father, Koji Masuda. Yoko notices Jin's hair at the back as she quickly faces him.

"Jin, you said that your hood is gonna knock off by your opponent. And your hair and bangs, you look like Godhand."

"I'm not like him..." Jin replies in a cold manner. "I have more bangs than the guy you mentioned."

"Really?"

"I just remove my hood when I go to Tappers to meet up with Ryu." Jin said nicely to Yoko. "I usually wear a hood if I fight primarily to my opponents. But it's true if either him or her would knock me off the ground my hood is also knocked off too."

"Wow... We don't have that in our game." Daigo said telling him. "Only the back of our school jackets are shown during fights. Except the brainwashed version of me it really shows..."

"You look silent Ryu...?" Jin asked in a nod.

"I hate to know this... but someone uses me in the game and I fought in shirtless like you are." Ryu answered.

"Really, I'm amused to see you fight like that. It's normal for us to fight in no shirts." Jin said amusing and Ryu replies.

"Unfortunately, If I appear like this. I also have a beard."

The group noticed a runaway thug is trying to escape from white and blue royal guards. Ryu was calmed to see this as he goes to stop the thug from running away. Ryu unleashes his V-Trigger, Denjin Renki as he charges with electricity and unleashes a lightning-based Hadoken to stun the thug down.

"What kind of a move is that?" Daigo said shockingly.

"Only Prince Doza and Django have this ability in our game." Yoko surprised.

"Thank you for knocking this thug down. Our King will be so happy about this." One of the royal guards said thankfully and Jin came to see him wanted to know his skills.

"Ryu, I've never seen your projectiles are embedded with electricity. What kind of a move you're pulling off too?"

"That's my V-Trigger, Denjin Renki." Ryu answered calmly. "When I was in that state, I might able to shoot my Hadoken with electricity. Especially, when I execute my Denjin Hadoken. If I'm not on that state, It would turn into a Shinku Hadoken."

"Gosh, I've never seen a yellow lightning just stick on your wrists, Ryu." Daigo smiled happily and he informs him. "Batsu will be so surprised after your own skills are getting improved."

"So it is true then... The legendary warrior was really here in this town." the man arrives to see them as all of the white and blue royal guards are bowing down.

"Who is this guy?" Yoko wondered.

"I am Ky Kiske, the High King of Illyria. It was my first time to see people in strange clothes and I thank you enough to help my royal guards to capture a runaway thug." Ky finally introduces formally to them.

"Illyria so this place is your town, right." Yoko said knowing of the place.

"Yes... but this is Illyria Kingdom." Ky said telling her. "I heard from my son that you had met Sol on the way."

"So Sin tells you that?" Jin said as he questions Ky. "If you're saying that Sin is your son? That means you are his father."

"It's kinda complicated to say. But it's true Sin is my son from Dizzy." Ky admitted and now asking them. "By the way, why are you here in the town of my castle?"

"We came here looking for a girl named Akira Kazama. She just wondered on your game and the Project Justice game recently got out of order." Jin said telling him.

"Hmmm... I've seen that girl before. Oh yes... she's at my castle. I was quite notice to see someone in modern clothes. Come to my castle, the person you were looking for was there." Ky said as he allows the group to enter his castle.

At the Illyria Castle, Ky finally explains to them about Sol and his actions in fighting against corrupted Gears.

"Sol and I were rivals ever since from the first game. He actually spared my life in the second game until I fell in love with Dizzy and had a son Sin." Ky explained. "Until now, Sol and I were still rivals from this day and its sequel came in."

"I guess their rivalry has no limits." Daigo said while touching his scar on his right eye. "Just like I had a score to settle with Hyo back in the Aoharu incident."

"All right, bring the girl right here." Ky said as the royal guard accept his order.

"We're not impressed the way we met Sol. He only appears to apologize after being introduce to us." Ryu said while closing his eyes.

"Sol's behavior is nothing more but unruly and crude. When it comes to a deadly battle, his passion of fighting was intense. He does not want to get near him because he is a Gear." Ky said knowing of his path.

"I'm just confused the way he acts." Jin said while thinking about Sol's actions. "He's just impressed after describing my outfit and the flame designs. I easily noticed about his outfit and his elemental movements."

"That's correct... Sol's favorite is fire which is the main reason he took a liking to you. Sin also told me that you beat him once with just a single punch and had a lightning like my son's." Ky said impressing on Jin's words as the royal guard arrives to see them.

"Sire, the girl is here..."

Akira arrives to see them and to be reunite with her older brother Daigo as well as Jin, Ryu and Yoko.

"Brother Daigo... I'm glad that you're here." Akira finally hugs him as Daigo accepts his sister's hug.

"Akira, you're making me worried. Don't you know that our game just out of order because of you?"

"..."

"Akira... listen you have to get back with Daigo on your game. If the arcade opens they would be unplugged." Jin said trying to convince her.

"Jin, I just want to explore things on my own. I already getting sick and tired of staying at my school. It's really boring." Akira said as she is saddened by this. "I wanted to see different things. Not just to go back there anymore."

"Akira, you shouldn't say things like that. Zaki and Yurika are also shocked after you had left. You gotta believe me if you keep doing this then our game would be unplugged forever." Daigo said and Akira becomes mad.

"Stop it, brother... I completely had enough. I want to explore things alone!"

Akira runs away making Daigo trying to chase her.

"Akira, wait..."

"She's gone turbo." Ryu remarked about Akira's actions until her screamed has been heard.

"Akira!" Both Jin and Daigo called her name as they quickly rushed to find her.

"I guess I'm coming along with you if it comes to trouble." Ky said as Ryu agrees to join in their side.

"You can come with us, Your Majesty."

Both Jin and Daigo noticed a doctor manages to kidnapped Akira which is a shock of them.

"I didn't expect that I have another patients are on the way."

"That guy is humongous!" Jin said shockingly.

"Speaking of giants, Jin. This guy was three inches away from me." Daigo said noticing of its height.

"I am Dr. Faust. I'll take this girl with me for my cosmetic surprise, hahaha..." Faust finally escapes with Akira on his grasp. Both Jin and Daigo became dismayed by this after he escaped.

"Damn... I can't let that crazy oaf to put my sister into a cosmetic doll." Daigo said angrily.

"I guess I know where he's going." Ky said in a serious manner. "He has a fortress where he put his kidnapped victims as his patients against their will."

"Maybe my father would be there too." Yoko said scarily and Jin becomes determined to find Akira.

"We have to save Akira before this crazy maniac would touch her."

"Ryu is your name, right. Take this map, that way you might find the fortress where Faust lives." Ky said as he gives the map to Ryu.

"Thank you, Ky."

The group proceeds to find Akira at Faust's fortress and Ky watches and knowing he also has a mission to do. On the way to the fortress, they found Sin who is hungry.

"Look it's Sin..." Yoko said recognizing his face.

"Uhhh... I'm... so...hungry..."

"Here Sin it think this onigiri looks good on you." Jin said as he gives the food to Sin as he eats it.

"Wow... thank you, Jin. The old man never gives me food sometimes."

"Jin, when did you get an onigiri? You should have brought them just in case if we get hungry." Ryu asked as Jin answered while closing his eyes.

"I brought that food during the 20th anniversary before I had a fallout with my goddamn father. I didn't expect someone would leave them in hunger."

"Forgive me, The old man has some things to do. He left me behind because he is focusing his job to get money." Sin said sadly.

"You mean Sol had left you behind?" Ryu said shockingly to Sol's actions.

"He said that he has to deal with someone to get the money. But he never feed me when it comes to drastic measures." Sin said sadly as he asks them. "So you guys, where are you heading into?"

"We're going to the fortress to find Akira. She was kidnapped by a crazy rogue doctor." Jin said in a serious tone. "I never expect that you're Ky's son."

"What? You had met my father? Whoa... you guys are special." Sin said impressed to them.

"How come you get hungry and your standing up so quickly?" Daigo asked as Sin reveals to them.

"I had a Calorie System Gauge. If the gauge is filled all my attacks are going to switch to Overdrives but once the gauge is empty I would ended up getting hungry."

"Hmmm... it was interesting to have a gauge. We actually have a Rage Art once our Rage is activated if our hit points are cut in half." Jin said became interesting about Sin's condition.

"I'm amused you have a Rage Art, Jin. Ours in the game is to filled with blue gauge to make a Critical Art." Ryu said amusing.

"Wow... Both Tekken and Street Fighter have their own Super Arts of their own just like our Burning Vigors." Daigo said also amused to their current state.

"Well then, I would glad to help you save that girl from Faust. This guy is a very tricky one." Sin said finally decides to join with them.

"What do you mean he's very tricky?" Yoko reacted and Sin tells them.

"He maybe the tallest guy in the game. But when it comes to fighting him, he is a tricky one. He wields a large scalpel to take down opponents and does tricks to his sleeve."

At Faust's fortress, Akira finally wakes up and to find out she was captured and the surroundings is similar to that of a hospital room.

"Where is this place? This place looks like a hospital."

"So you also get caught too."

Akira noticed someone's voice when she takes a peek on the window it was a short brown haired man with a scar on his brow and cheek much to her surprise.

"Wow... So you noticed me on purpose. Who are you?"

"The name's Koji Masuda and archaeologist who explores different places to find different kinds of artifacts. Especially, I'm also a fighter too."

"You're Yoko's father. She was looking for you for a long time. Anyway, why are you here in this prison too?" Akira asked.

"When I explore this game before, this mad man got me on purpose and he appears to be strong. I tried my best to hold my own against him but I ended up getting knocked down and here I am captured." Koji answered. "It seems these prisoners are inhuman. This guy seems to make everyone change by surgery."

"Don't worry, Mr. Masuda. Jin and Brother Daigo are there to find me. Maybe I'll try bust this thing." Akira goes for a palm strike but electrocuted. "Waah!"

"Take it easy, young lady. Their bars and its locks are made of electricity. I guess the wall might able to break through but it was made of hard concrete." Koji said giving some advice.

"I just hope those two would be here." Akira said sadly.

"I just forgot your name. I never seen Yoko would make friends with other people from other games."

"I'm Akira Kazama my older brother Daigo and I are from the Project Justice game."

"I see then... We can wait until someone would save us." Koji said telling her.

Meanwhile, the group fights off more of Faust's men as Yoko demonstrates by spinning her yo-yo to knock her opponents, Ryu defeats his opponents with his close range combat, Jin does a combo move to take damage by damage.

"Your moves become improve, Jin." Ryu complimented as Jin as he nods looked at the upper window of the fortress as he found the opening to get through.

"I think I could climb up from here."

"I guess that I cannot get climb like you did." Ryu said as Jin requests Daigo.

"Daigo, you have to lift me up. I can double jump from here."

"Sure thing..." Daigo smirks as Jin charges as Daigo lifts him up to jump so high as he successfully hangs on the window while climbing up.

"Hey, you two... I need help here..." Sin said as both Daigo and Ryu assists Sin and Yoko to continue fighting.

At the fortress, Jin finally made it inside while putting his hood on so that his opponents won't recognize him and he reminds the place as the Mishima Fortress.

I've never seen this humongous guy would survive in this fortress. It's just like only one person could hunt and feed the beast with human flesh.

Jin heard someone's voice and it comes from the prison area. He heads to the direction and he realizes that voice comes from Akira's.

"Akira, is that you?"

"That voice... is that Jin?" Akira wondered as she saw him but in a hood. "Can you get me out of here? I tried to break through the door but I got electrocuted."

Jin tries to touch and he realizes it was made by electronic door. He manages to punch the door lock with a Demon's Paw and unlocks it and Akira was happy to see him.

"Uh... Is that you Jin? I...couldn't recognize you when you wore that hood." Akira said shyly as Jin shakes his head in disappointment.

"You don't get me, Akira. Of course you would recognize me if I remove my hood on my jacket."

Jin removes his hood on his head and Akira was surprised and apologizes.

"Oh dear me... It is really you, I'm sorry..."

"We gotta get out of here, Akira. Your brother was there too."

"Wait, Jin. We can't leave this guy behind." Akira said knowing about Koji's condition. "Yoko's father was here."

"You think so..."

"Yes." Akira said as she convinces Koji to stand back. "Mr. Masuda... you have to stand back. Jin is gonna break the wall from here."

"I guess we were lucky to be saved then." Koji finally stands up and tries to keep away.

Jin then unleashes his Rage Art by knocking a single punch followed by several jabs and heavily breaks the wall with a devastating straight thrust.

"Wow, Jin... You have a Burning Vigor. That's amazing..." Akira said cheerfully.

"That's a Rage Art, Akira. I usually done it when I could distract the enemy in desperation." Jin said correcting her and Koji was relieved to see them.

"It's a good thing you came to save us. But we need to get out of the fortress."

Jin, Akira and Koji try to escape the fortress but they were confronted by Faust who wields a large scalpel.

"Gah... that's the giant freak who kidnapped me." Akira said while hiding at Jin's back.

"You guys can't escape from me. I have no insurance to handle this." Faust said while wielding his large scalpel.

"Sorry to say crazy mad man... I heard that you're tricky if it comes to a deadly fight. Perhaps, blocking our escape would take you down." Jin smirked arrogantly making Faust get angry.

"Why you son of a bitch...? How dare you mocking me?" Faust tries to attack Jin with his large scalpel but misses as he was seen in mid-air and he knocks him down with a single kick.

"Akira, we have to go quickly." Koji convinces Akira to escape.

"Jin let's go..." Akira tells Jin to come as he follows them.

The trio continues to escape as Akira got tripped hurting her knee.

"Oww..."

"Akira, carry to my back, hurry." Jin tries to let Akira carry on his back which she agrees and Jin sees Faust is after them. He carries Akira to his back in a piggy back ride as they continues to escape.

Therefore, Ryu, Daigo, Sin and Yoko are impressed to see Jin, Akira and Koji are safe. To their dismay, they are after by Faust.

"This guy is history..." Sin decides to knock him down but Ryu stops him and Daigo charges while the trio are safe with the group. He unleashes his Energy Focus Cluster on Faust knocking him through the distance allowing the group to escape the fortress in time.
