Across the globe,many fighters as well as most of the world warriors train greatly for the coming contest of fighting contests..the Super World Warrior tournament.

Many trained with each other in dojos and gyms,others punched and kicked at their sandbags,training dummies and even chopped and kicked through massive blocks of ice.

Ryu trained Sakura further in the dojo while Ken trained Sean and Mel the more advanced techniques of Shotokan Karate.

While somewhere in a secret location..

The dark clad stranger entered through a hydraulic pump door and kneeled before a giant blowing orb of green energy.

"I...master...master..I have at last founded a plan on...feeding your power."he said.

"You do..?"said a deep and demonic voice from the orb. "What is it?"

"My..enemies have at last founded a new fighting contest..a contest that will bring together many..and I do mean many of the world's strongest fighters."

"And will these..fighters..have the power..to feed my hunger?"said the orb.

"Yes,my master--yes."said the man. "Your hunger will at last be slated..I shall not fail you."

"You'd best not,mortal one."said the orb. "It is because of I..that you cheated death for the final time..and unless you fail me...YOU AND YOUR PITIFUL REGIMENT SHALL BE DEVOURED BY ME!"

The orb crackled with sharp and intense energy,causing the dark figure to twitch slightly.

"Do I make myself clear of this?"said the orb.

"Yes,yes quite clear."said the man.

"Good,"said the orb. "now begone with you,and make your preparations,while I continue my transformation."

"Yes..master."said the man as he bowed and left the room.

After closing the door,he went up to a wall and punched a hole through it.

"DAMMIT!"he shouted. "I did not return from the grave..just to be a..puppet of that monster in there! Well...no matter..when the time is right and after our plan is put into operation..I shall be the master once more..HAHAHA!"

Las Vegas..

Guile and Dark decided to pay an old..friend a visit..namely Mike Balrog,at his brothel that is.

But as they entered through the doors,a large and bulky man wearing shades and a dark suit came between them.

"Can I help you..gentlemen?"he said.

"Yeah,mind getting your boss for us,boy?"said Guile.
"Uh..yes I do mind and don't be calling me no boy--soldier man..now take a damn hike before I haul both your blonde asses!"

Guile and Dark looked at each other and smiled.

"Okay,suit yourself."said Guile before he did a flip and slammed his famed Flash Kick into the bodyguard's chin.

"KRAKK!"

The thug fell backwards and hit the floor with a loud thud.

"You still got it Will."said Dark.

"Hey,I never lost it,even at my age."said Guile rubbing his back.

"Hey--what the hell's going on out there?"said a naked asian woman in a thin string thong as she entered the lobby room. "I'm trying to give a--EEEEEK--a raid!"

"Hey,hey easy lady!"said Guile. "We're looking for your boss."

"Balrog?"said the woman. "Okay,okay..he's in his office in the back..but don't you tell him I said where!"

"We won't milady."said Dark. "Just get back to your eh..business."

"Sure thing..but ah..you wouldn't mind staying around till i'm done would ya..I have a thing for..military men."

"Uh..thanks but no,i'm married."said Guile.

"And i'm engaged,but thanks anyways."said Dark.

"Huh,suit yourself."said the woman as she returned to her room and customer.

"Sheesh!"said Guile. "I knew he was a dirty boxer..and a dirty member of Shadaloo..but this is freakin'nuts!"

"We all lend sinful lives when we tread the wrong path,old friend."said Dark."Now,let's get to what we came for."

"Right."said Guile.

The two commandos moved in down through the plush velvet and red coverered halls and punched out several other goons before coming across the front door office of the owner of this filth trap."

"Should we knock?"said Dark.

"Nah,I like to make a nice..entrance."said Guile.

He thrust his right forward and kicked the thick wood and brass door down.

"HEY--WHO THE HELL DID THAT?"said an all too familair voice in the next room.

"Yup,he's the same all right."said Guile. "Shall we?"

"Let's."said Dark.

The two soldiers went in and found Balrog,all decked out in a purple velvet suit and was giving a job interview to a red haired #%$%*%.

"WHAT THE HELL YOU THINK YER DOIN'---GASP--GUILE!"said Balrog as his face went into wide eyes suprise.

"Nice to see you as well,Bally."said Guile. "Nice suit..but I think I liked you better in blue shorts and boxing gloves."

"Huh,and that moustache on ya don't do a thing for ya,solider man--now what the frig do you and your faggy looking friend there want and how long before I throw your asses out?"

Dark scowled in anger at the pimp's remark.

"Take it easy Dark,i'll handle this guy."said Guile.

"As for you missy--come back later..your boss man has business with us."

"Hey,I came here for a good job and i'm not leaving until--"protested the young woman.

"NOW!"shouted Guile.

The woman jumped up from her seat and ran out.

"%%$%%#+!"she called out in the hall.

"Now just a minute here!"said Balrog.

Guile then jumped over the desk and then landed a drop kick into his face,knocking him down into his swivel chair.

"Nice touch."said Dark smirking.

"Now,you puglist piece of %!#*!"said Guile as he grabbed Balrog by the orange tie of his suit.

"Shut the hell up and listen good--Dark,myself and the rest of the miltary have been dealing with actions that..could be from your former bosses..at Shadaloo."

"Wha--is that why you came here man?"said Balrog. "You oughta damn well know,that i'm just a legitimate businessman these days..I got no more ties or connections with that..that two bit gang anymore.

And besides that..Bison's dead now and you of all people should know that!"

"Yeah,I know..I was there."said Guile. "But if you recall,he's been dead before...and..Shadaloo or not,your business is tied with the underworld..so..you must of at least heard some things."

"Yes,so please give if you will.."said Dark.

Balrog hesitated and swallowed for a moment and then answered.

"Okay--okay--i'll tell what I know..!"he said.

"I..I heard that there was a new..terrorist cartel out making waves out in various countries..even did a heist or two at some major casinos.

But..I heard..that there was..some former scientist and terrorits in it..that worked for Shadaloo once."

"I knew it!"said Guile. "So what else you heard?"

"Well I uh.."said Balrog.

"Just before I resigned and left Shadaloo..I heard that Bison had some new plan for..saving his psycho power and soul in case he...died again."

"Did he now?"said Guile. "Anything else?"

"No,no..I swear that's it,that's all I know."said Balrog.

"Okay then."said Guile as he let loose of his tie.

"We'll take our leave now."

"Yeah,you'd better before I call the cops--prostitution was made legal in some parts of Las Vegas and this here is one of'em you got nothing on me!"said Balrog.

"Shut yer trap will ya ass breath?"said Guile. "You don't know that the military these days has bigger authority than the police. Maybe they can't touch you..but we sure as hell could anytime we liked!

And not only that Balrog..i'm pretty disappointed now more than ever in you."

"Why's that honkey man?"said Balrog.

"Even if you were in Shadaloo,you were one of the best damn boxers the US ever had."said Guile. "Now look at what you've become..a second rate pimp..hocking T&A all the way."

"Yeah,and that velvet makes you look like the faggy one anyways."said Dark. "So I wouldn't talk."

"I bet you haven't even touched a single sandbag or punched someone in your life have you?"said Guile. "Well,see ya again if any,it's your life..and what a waste it's become.
Come on Dark,we got places to be."

But just as Guile was about to leave,Dark saw Balrog lunge at him with a dashing punch.

"Guile--look out!"said Dark.

"You piece of %!#*!"said Balrog. "TAKE THIS!"

But just as Balrog lunged his punch at him,Guile ducked it and slammed a Knee Bazooka into his gut and then unleashed his powerful ki move.

"SONIC KABOOM!"said Guile as he slammed both fists and a blast of yellow ki energy into his face.

"KRASSH!"

The former boxer went flying into his desk and was out cold.

"Nice try,homes."said Guile. "But if I was you,i'd get some more practice in,kapeesh?"

The two soldiers then left the sinful establishment.

"Well,now where do we go for a new tip?"said Dark.

"I..think I might know of someone who might help..if she's still up for it."said Guile. "Come on let's get a drink and get outta here."

A forest in Japan..

Kairi and Hokuto trained the first row of ninjas with their dreaded and powerful techniques while Nanese trained the junior group.

They both waved arms and thrust kicks as the group of students did the same.

Suddenly,Kairi could sense something in the air.

"GASP!"he cried.

"Kairi--?"said Hokuto. "Wha-what is it?"

"He's--he's here..I can sense him!"said Kairi.

"Who--?"said Hokuto.

As if on cue,a giant blue of blades came flying out of the forest and came cutting and slashing through the group of ninjas they trained,killing them all instantly.

"WHAT ON EARTH?"said Hokuto.

"Hokuto--look out!"said Kairi as he grabbed her and jumped with her to safety.

The blades then stopped swirling and then revealled it's true form.

Standing before them was a giant,musclebound and armored villian of raw and evil power.

He was the demonc samurai known as--

"GARUDA!"said Kairi. "I should've known you wouldn't stay dead!"

"Your power was great ninja,"he said. "but not great enough to destroy me!"

"You killed a group of innocent students just to get my brother?"said Hokuto as she brought out her fans. "YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS!"
"No sister!"said Kairi as he placed his arm in front. "This..is my fight once again,I cannot involve you!"

"But--!"she protested.

"No buts..just take Nanese and the other students to safety,i'll do away with this demon once again!"said Kairi.

Hokuto reluctantly obeyed,and did so.

Kairi then pulled off his tunic and shirt,revealling his muscular and scarred body.

"The years have not been so kind I see."said Garuda. "Even if it was who gave you those scars during our first and second outing."

"This time it'll be your last demon!"said Kairi as he got into his fight stance. "I fear no one---and certainly not you!"

The battle was about to begin.
